901 is right, the Su family doesn't have that ability
The victim said he didn't want to take anyone away, so what else could Zhai Dongming do? He could only put on a gloomy face and let Yan Yifei take Ye Ye and the people of Yecheng away.
Seeing the arrogance of the group of people in Yecheng, Zhai Dongming was furious. As soon as the people in Yecheng left, Zhai Dongming was not polite. He pointed at Feng Qingchen's nose and scolded: "Feng Qingchen, you useless thing, I came here to support you, I am not afraid of anything, but you actually shrink back, you have been bullied to your doorstep, and you still endure it."
Zhai Dongming was really disappointed with Feng Qingchen. With such a strong backer like him, Feng Qingchen had nothing to fear. He arrogantly put Ye Ye and the other troublemakers in jail, waiting to see who dared to smash the door of Feng Mansion for no reason in the future.
"I'm not enduring." Even if Feng Qingchen was afraid, she would not be afraid of Ye Ye. She just felt that it was unnecessary. Seeing that Zhai Dongming was so angry, she had to explain.
"Don't be angry, my lord. I'm not afraid of Ye Ye, nor am I not fighting back when I'm beaten. It's just that capturing Ye Ye now will be of no use to us."
"Why is he useless? Throw him into jail to dampen his arrogance, otherwise he will think this is Yecheng and act recklessly everywhere, and take himself seriously." Zhai Dongming had disliked Ye Ye for a long time. It was a pity that he couldn't do anything to Ye Ye despite such a good opportunity.
"My Lord, you think things are too simple. City Lord Ye died in Dongling. No matter who is right or wrong, the emperor will not care about Ye Ye's misconduct. As soon as you arrest Ye Ye, the emperor will release him and blame us later."
Ye Ye's father died, and it was unlucky for her to be the suspect. The emperor would never blame Ye Ye, and the world would not blame Ye Ye either. They would only say that Ye Ye was a person of temperament, pure and filial.
“But we can’t let them go like this. Ye Ye is too arrogant. Even if he suspected you were the murderer, he should have called the police instead of bringing people to your house.” Zhai Dongming was still very unhappy. What did Ye Ye think of the Feng Mansion? He could smash it and break into it whenever he wanted. Did he really think this was Ye City? He was still the domineering and arrogant Young Master Ye.
"So what if you don't let him go? His father just died, and you still have the nerve to argue with him? If you really want to be serious, we won't have the confidence to make a fuss unless a few people die on our side." Feng Qingchen didn't want to risk people's lives for a pride fight, it wasn't worth it.
"Okay, you're right." It is understandable that Zhai Dongming would act in extreme ways due to the pain of losing his father. He was upset, but he couldn't refute it.
"If I lock Ye Ye up, the emperor will have to spend more money to appease Ye Ye afterwards. We can't let him take advantage of us."
"That's exactly the truth. That's why we should not only not lock Ye Ye up, but we should also show understanding for his behavior. Ye Ye is in the right, so we have to be in the right. Otherwise, the death of his father alone will be enough to give us a headache." Feng Qingchen signaled the servants to clean up the outside of the Feng Mansion.
"Tong Jue, record the number of injured people and the losses in our house one by one." After finding out the truth, she would go to Ye Cheng to settle the accounts.
Tong Jue and Tong Yao had been with Feng Qingchen the longest, and they understood Feng Qingchen's thoughts the best. They immediately responded, "Miss, don't worry. We will definitely remember it and will never let you down."
The so-called "remember it well" means increasing the original value by more than ten times. Anyway, no one will know about it after a long time, so they write it down now as "evidence."
"Smart." Feng Qingchen praised, then invited Wang Jinling, Zhai Dongming and Zuo An into the mansion. When he saw Zuo An, his eyes stayed on him for a while longer, without saying anything, but gave Ye Ye a meaningful smile.
Zhai Dongming watched the conversation between Feng Qingchen and his servant with a puzzled look on his face. He looked at Wang Jinling, hoping that Wang Jinling could help him solve the puzzle, but Wang Jinling just smiled and said nothing. He then looked at Zuo An, but Zuo An simply ignored him and disappeared as soon as he entered the mansion.
"Qingchen, what are you going to do next? City Lord Ye died from the hidden weapon you often used. According to the law, you will be detained." As soon as he entered the mansion, Zhai Dongming couldn't wait to ask.
The death of City Lord Ye was very unfavorable to Feng Qingchen. There was no witness, but the physical evidence showed that Feng Qingchen was the murderer. If Feng Qingchen could not find favorable evidence, she would undoubtedly become the murderer of City Lord Ye.
Ye Ye was out of his mind today. If he went directly to the palace to file a complaint, even if the Ninth Prince tried his best to protect Feng Qingchen, he would still have to lock Feng Qingchen up according to the law.
"It's not a big deal. I'm the biggest suspect in City Lord Ye's death. Someone will be watching my every move. The more I do now, the more mistakes I'll make. Besides, the competition between Su Rou and I will be in ten days. All I have to do now is prepare for the competition. Before the competition, the emperor won't do anything to me." Feng Qingchen could only say that she was so unlucky. Things happened one after another.
During the Lantern Festival, she brought Su Rou into the palace and met Imperial Noble Concubine Xie. Just as Feng Qingchen had expected, Imperial Noble Concubine Xie was very polite to Su Rou and gave her many suggestions in her words.
Su Rou was quite confident in her own magic of bewitching. Soon after leaving the palace, she proposed a horse riding and archery competition. The emperor agreed and the competition was to be held at the horse farm in the zoo ten days later.
During these ten days, she planned to arrange surgery for Yun Xiao, and use the remaining time to concentrate on practicing riding and archery. As soon as the competition was over, she would go to Shandong. However, she did not expect to encounter the death of City Lord Ye, which disrupted all her plans.
Sure enough, plans cannot keep up with changes!
"Oh, that's right. I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. You and Su Rou are going to compete soon, but something like this has happened. It will more or less affect your condition. It will be bad if you lose in the competition." Zhai Dongming was a guy who couldn't grasp the key points at all. When Feng Qingchen mentioned this, he became worried about the competition.
"If I lose, I lose. I'm not a member of the Su family. I'm not gambling with my wealth and reputation. No matter I win or lose, I'm the biggest winner. The competition is not the point. The point is that we have ten days. Maybe we can find the real murderer in these ten days." If it weren't for the competition with the Su family, she would be in jail now. No matter what, she is the only suspect now. The emperor has to lock her up just for the sake of face and give Ye Cheng an explanation.
"Qingchen is right. We still have ten days. We must try our best to find the real murderer in these ten days, otherwise Qingchen will not be able to clear the suspicion." If no other murderer is found, then Feng Qingchen is the murderer.
Wang Jinling thought of Zuo An who suddenly appeared, and felt a little uneasy, but he didn't bring it up.
"What do you think? Could it be that the Su family sent someone to do this? After all, the Su family and Yecheng are relatives. If they want to kill Lord Yecheng, they just need to coordinate internal and external forces." Zhai Dongming made a bold guess, which earned him puzzled looks from Wang Jinling and Feng Qingchen.
"What's wrong with you? Is my guess wrong? The Su family killed the Lord of Ye City and framed Qingchen. On the one hand, this can make Qingchen behave abnormally during the competition, and on the other hand, it can allow the Su family to further control Ye City. Ye Ye's mother is a daughter of the Su family, and Ye Ye likes Su Wan. In this way, the Su family can take over Ye City without any soldiers." Zhai Dongming was panicked by the gazes of Wang Jinling and Feng Qingchen, and hurriedly explained.
It must be said that Zhai Dongming's explanation makes some sense, but Zhai Dongming forgot that this is Dongling's territory, and the Su family is not capable of making such a big move in Dongling's territory.
