Riding the Pheonix Chapter 58: Injustice
The second master was completely confused.
What happened? What is she saying?
Aren’t you talking about her mother? Who said that?
Wrong soul? Are there any other grievances in the Ming family?
The second master’s current situation is like a comparison.
Two masters were dueling, and one of them was gearing up. He had already demonstrated the opponent's tricks countless times in his mind and thought of countless ways to break them.
However, when it came to the duel, the opponent had no tricks at all and just punched randomly...
The second master was stunned.
Not only the second master, but also so many people present, no one expected that such a thing would happen.
What she wants to say is actually something else? Wasn't that just...
Everyone looked at the second master with unclear meaning.
The second master also realized it.
He told the family scandal himself!
He admitted that Mrs. Ming San committed suicide because she was humiliated by her brother-in-law!
The second master wanted to blow his head off.
Generally speaking, if you take the initiative to announce a scandal, you will often have to cover up a bigger scandal.
The reason why he took the initiative to speak out was that he thought Mingwei would report him and was afraid that Jiang Wenfeng would find out the real cause of death, so he admitted that the sixth master had become immoral after drinking and that Mrs. Mingsan committed suicide to preserve her reputation.
As the saying goes, choose the lesser of two evils.
Now, this is not what Mingwei wants to report.
That is, he announced the scandal himself and made jokes to officials and gentry of all sizes in Dongning.
Moreover, if Mingwei took the initiative to report the humiliation of his mother, the world would tend to be harsher on the victim, and most of them would be harsh on Mrs. Mingsan, feeling that she did not abide by her duties, which is why her brother-in-law coveted her.
Now it’s the second master who says it himself, but it’s different.
It turns out that Mrs. Ming San committed suicide and took her full name? The Ming family has such unworthy descendants, and they still think that just following family rules is enough?
Tsk, tsk, tsk, will Prime Minister Ming be so angry that he will jump out of his grave if he knows that his family style has become like this?
Under the attention of everyone, the second master's face turned blue and white.
He felt regretful and resentful in his heart. What he regretted was that at his old age, he got hot-headed and jumped into the pit dug by others. What I hate is that this girl is so cunning. Could that guess be true? Otherwise, how could a child who had been stupid for more than ten years suddenly become so smart?
"Tsk..." Suddenly a chuckle came.
Amidst the silence, it is particularly noticeable.
Everyone looked at the voice and saw that it was Young Master Yang.
He held up a fan to cover his face: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be disrespectful to the deceased in the mourning hall."
Although he stopped laughing, listening to this tone, he wondered what kind of face was behind the fan.
Then everyone laughed knowingly.
It just doesn't make any sound.
The second master was heartbroken.
This joke will probably be circulated in Dongning for many years.
If it is written into the county annals, it might be passed down through the ages...
Not to mention how desperate the second master was, Jiang Wenfeng was also secretly surprised when Ming Wei said this.
I thought this little girl was going to fight to pieces and tear off a layer of skin from the person who killed her mother, but it turned out that she wanted to sue for another matter?
He was startled for a moment, then smiled knowingly.
This method is much smarter than reporting directly.
I found a reason for him to intervene without damaging my mother's reputation.
As for the second master exposing his family scandal, this is an unexpected gain.
Ming Xiangye was a wise man throughout his life, but he didn’t expect that his descendants would... It’s a pity.
However, she is also a descendant of Prime Minister Ming, so her wit does not mean that she has lost the reputation of her ancestors.
"Seventh Miss, please rise." Jiang Wenfeng said, "I wonder what murder case you are reporting? If it is true, I will definitely find out the truth and give him justice."
Mingwei stood up and reported, "Sir, just over a month ago, my little girl encountered a ghost in her home. She was so frightened that she became bedridden. While she was sick, she dreamed about her almost every day. An innocent soul is crying, saying that he died here, not having a good death, and unable to be reincarnated..."
When the second master heard this, he suddenly woke up from his embarrassment.
Garden!
Bump into a ghost!
Injustice!
That's the one...
"No!" he blurted out.
Mingwei paused and looked at him doubtfully: "What's wrong with the second uncle? Does the second uncle know the origin of this innocent soul? Who died in our garden? You didn't tell me before, and it scared me so much that I thought I didn’t know what to do after thinking about it, but I thought that if it was an innocent soul, Mr. Jiang would take care of it..."
This... of course cannot be admitted!
The second master shook his head with embarrassment and smiled very reluctantly: "How could I know your dream? No one has died in your garden, I'm afraid you have a nightmare! For such an unreasonable reason If you tell Mr. Jiang about your dream, you are making too much of a fuss!"
"But," Mingwei said slowly, "my niece later went there to dig through the soil and smelled a very strange smell, a bit like something rotting..."
"You're talking nonsense again! You're a boudoir, how do you know what rotten corpses smell like? I'm afraid you've thought too much!" The second master thought about it and added, "Didn't you find many dead bodies in your garden a while ago? A mouse? Maybe it’s that one."
"What the second uncle said is true." Mingwei looked at him, her tone a bit innocent~IndoMTL.com~But my niece heard that human life is at stake. If I really made a mistake, it would have been a wasted trip. If there really is an evil spirit in our Ming family, it will have a great impact on our family's fortune! The mother has passed away, and the niece has no other relatives. She naturally hopes that the family will prosper for a long time. Mr. Jiang, do you think so? ”
Jiang Wenfeng smiled and said: "It is true that people have a destiny."
After her opinion was recognized, Mingwei looked relieved: "Then please ask Mr. Jiang to send someone to dig in our garden? Thinking that there may be an innocent soul there, the little girl has trouble sleeping and eating. This Thinking about it in the past two days, I always feel that the reason why my mother can't think about it is probably because the yin energy in the garden is too strong. If only I had said it earlier."
She lowered her head and raised her sleeves to wipe her tears.
Who wouldn’t feel pity when seeing this scene.
Miss Mingqi is really pitiful. He lost his father when he was young, and now he has lost his mother, and he doesn't even have any biological brothers or sisters.
And the family still treats her... Look at the second master Ming just now. His niece didn't say anything, so she scolded her first, suspecting that she was going to sue the clan. I'm afraid she's having a hard time at home!
Of course, it is unknown how many people who think this way are motivated by kindness because of their appearance.
"Miss Seventh is right." Jiang Wenfeng said warmly, "It is about human life. I would rather believe it than not. If someone really kills people and buries corpses in your house, it will be exposed in the future, and it will also have an impact on your reputation. ”
He looked at Prince Qidong: "My lord, what do you think?"
Prince Qidong looked troubled: "What Mr. Jiang said makes sense. But it's not a good idea to go to someone else's house to break ground without evidence, right? Besides, if there is a funeral in the Ming family, it would disturb the spirits of the dead. Why don't you wait a moment? In two days, after the funeral is over, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds to ask the Ming family to dig it themselves?"
