Chapter 551 The Despicable Things Li Ming Did (2/2)



The Sun couple were so anxious they almost fainted. After making inquiries, they found Sun Fang, who had been imprisoned by Liu Zhi.

They went to Liu Zhi's house to demand their return, but not only did they fail to get the person, they were also beaten and thrown out by Liu Zhi's servants.

Already in despair, Sun Fang saw her parents being beaten because of her, and coupled with the physical and mental torment, she resolutely chose to end her life.

When the elderly couple learned that their daughter was dead, they went to retrieve her body, but they were beaten to death.

When Sun Yi returned home from his vacation, he found that his once warm and cozy home was now empty except for him. He learned from his neighbors that something had happened to his family. He then ran to a mass grave and brought back the bodies of his parents and sister.

Sun Yi was intelligent and rational. He knew that he would not be able to avenge his family by confronting them head-on with his own abilities, and might even lose his life like his parents. So he chose to report them to the authorities.

When Li Ming first took over the case, he was determined to bring the criminals to justice. But Sun Yi didn't expect that Li Ming would change his mind the very next day.

It turns out that Liu Zhi was actually a distant nephew of Consort Liu, because the Liu family had promised him high-ranking official positions and wealth.

Li Ming, who was not an honest official to begin with, chose the Liu family without hesitation, while Sun Yi, who was originally the victim, was sentenced to caning and exile.

Sun Yi, already unwilling to accept his fate, chose to escape during his exile.

After escaping, Sun Yi planned to seek revenge on Liu Zhi on his own.

He didn't expect that before he could even make a move, he was captured by the guards beside Sun Yi.

Unexpectedly, Sun Yi was rescued by someone secretly sent by the Second Prince.

The person who delivered the token also delivered a letter, in which the Second Prince spoke of Sun Yi's matter.

Although a long time has passed, Leon Lai still hasn't forgotten this incident. After all, it was the most blatant murder case among all the things he had done that were considered wrong.

He got promoted and made a fortune because of this incident, but it was also a major stain on his record.

He had just seen that the token in Bai Ming's hand was the token of a prince in the palace.

It seems his earlier fears have come true; this Bai Ming Art is no ordinary person, and he really does have a connection with Jingzhong Guiren.

If he truly knew the prince and was aware of the Sun family's affairs, then removing a minor prefect like himself from office would be very easy.

Li Ming valued his life but didn't want to lose his official career, so he chose divorce. As for the dowry, he genuinely couldn't afford it.

"Young Master Bai, I can agree to the divorce, but I can't afford the dowry."

Last night, my manor was burgled. Not only was the dowry stolen, but the storerooms, granaries, and kitchen were all emptied by the thieves.

It's not that I don't want to give a dowry, but rather that I'm powerless to provide one if it's gone.

Yes, the dowry was stolen, it's not like I refused to give it back.

This was a solution that Li Ming had just come up with on a whim.

The dowry was misappropriated, and only the welfare recipients, Bai Zhi, and their own people knew about it; outsiders were unaware.

However, many people now know about the thief in the manor last night. Bai Zhi's dowry was stolen, but it wasn't his fault. As long as he insists that he has nothing to do with it, the matter of the dowry can be put to rest.

"Oh!"
