Riding the Pheonix Chapter 60: Meet


The body came out.

A good condolences turned into an investigation.

Jiang Wenfeng borrowed a room from the Ming family, temporarily moved the bones there, and invited Ming Wei to question him.

She was the one who reported the case, and no one could fault her for doing so.

Seeing her asking him for instructions openly, the second master could only swallow his bitterness and nod in agreement.

Prince Qidong quickly sent someone to say goodbye.

The second master had no choice but to lead the whole family and send him off respectfully.

All the officials who came to express their condolences also sent them off one by one with kind words.

For fear that they would spread the word about what happened today, everyone secretly gave a generous gift.

Of course, it is impossible for these officials not to mention it at all.

It’s just that I gave them gifts and told them to be more lenient...

After seeing off the last guest, the second master’s head almost exploded.

But the second lady came again and asked: "Master, what will Mr. Jiang do on the other end?"

The second master was angry: "You have to eat, you have to drink, what else can you do?"

The second lady looked calmly: "Why are you so angry, Master? When you did the next thing, didn't you think about today?"

The second master was startled when he heard this and looked at her suspiciously: "What do you know?"

"What can I know?" the second lady laughed at herself, "When have you ever asked me about things you do?"

"Then how do you know this matter is related to us?"

The second lady said in a mean tone: "If it wasn't your brothers who did it, who else could it be? Aren't you always like this, not saying a word when doing things, but asking us to fill in the gaps when something goes wrong. If one day we people go to hell. , and it’s all because of you!”

The second master was impatient: "Am I doing it for myself? Not for you! For this family!"

"Master, don't speak so grandly." The second lady sneered, "Are we unable to eat or clothe ourselves? It's obvious that you men are too ambitious and want glory, wealth and a bright future, so you blame us women and children."

This day was full of frustrations, and the second master was also filled with anger. But the second wife still said these words, and he could not control his anger: "You only know how to eat and wear! Third brother He's about to end, don't you want him to have a good future? Brother Six is ​​seeing his age, do you want him to stay in Dongning like us all his life?"

"Master, please don't lie to yourself." The second lady was unmoved, "Whether San'er can pass the exam depends on his own ability. If he is not good at it, buy him an official position and let him work on his own. Six My son has always been undisciplined in his studies. It would be great if he could pass the examination as a scholar. There is nothing wrong with being a master at home in the future. If you really thought about your children, you would not have made your eldest sister suffer such a disadvantage in the first place!"

At this point, the second lady had tears in her eyes.

Here we go again, here we go again!

Not only did the second master not feel guilty, he was even more bored.

If you mention any thing over and over again, even if it is your fault at first, over time, all the guilt will be wiped away.

"Is it what I want to do with my eldest sister?" The second master said impatiently, "How many times have I told you? That would be the best for my eldest sister! You can't make things happen, right? Then she won't be able to marry far away. No more!"

The second lady's eyes turned red: "Who said anything about marrying far away? My daughter has suffered such a loss. As a father, you have no idea of ​​seeking justice. Are you worthy of being a father?"

The second master was very angry and wanted to have a big quarrel with the second lady.

At this moment, a servant woman came to ask the second lady for instructions. The second master had to hold back his anger and said: "Over there, you ask people to serve you well and give them whatever they ask for. That is the patrol censor, we can't afford to offend him. ."

Then he left.

The second lady watched him walk away indifferently, and sneered in her heart.

She knew where he was going.

It’s that weird yard again.

For ten years, no one has been allowed to step in except that Madam Ma.

Bah, let him live with Mrs. Ma for the rest of his life!

……

Lei Hong was dressed in official uniform and came out with a sword.

"Miss Seven, please invite me."

Mingwei bowed and followed him inside.

This house is located in Yu Fang Yuan. It was originally used for gardeners to store sundries. It occupies a small area and there are no other buildings around it.

Jiang Wenfeng asked for this room nearby and moved all the sundries out, leaving only a bamboo bed.

The skeleton is now supported by a mat and placed on the bamboo bed.

When Mingwei entered the room, he and several subordinates were talking while examining the body.

"I have met Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Wenfeng cleaned his hands and came over to speak: "Miss Qi, the situation is complicated right now, so I can only ask you to come here to talk. Don't be surprised."

Mingwei replied: "My little girl understands. Only in this way can we meet openly and openly without letting others pry."

Jiang Wenfeng originally thought that calling her a boudoir lady in the same room as a corpse might frighten her. Unexpectedly, after she said this, she looked at the skeleton majestically.

He was moved in his heart and asked: "Miss Qi, how did you know that there was a skeleton buried under this tree? Is it really a dream?"

Ming Wei said: "What I said before, about dreaming about innocent souls, is false."

"Oh? Miss Qi means~IndoMTL.com~hit ghosts?"

Mingwei nodded: "I wonder if Mr. Jiang has heard the gossip about my family? My daughter has a disease of stupidity. She got well after a ghost attack a month ago."

Jiang Wenfeng nodded: "I heard it."

As soon as he arrived in Dongning, he quietly sent someone out to inquire about all the local officials and gentry.

"Has Mr. Jiang heard of the theory of Xuannv collecting souls?"

Seeing him nod, Mingwei said: "I was born with a special horoscope, and I can see things that ordinary people can't."

Jiang Wenfeng narrowed his eyes.

She continued: "For example, your Excellency hung the magic weapon under the tree today to temporarily suppress the evil creature, so that the bones can be successfully lifted out."

As soon as these words came out, even the author and the scribe who were doing the autopsy looked over.

Lei Hong was listening and suddenly remembered that day in Xinyuan, with the ghosts dancing wildly...

"Did you do it?" he blurted out.

Several people looked at him.

Lei Hong found out that he had lost his composure and was feeling annoyed when he heard Ming Wei calmly reply with one word: "Yes."

"Miss Seventh, do you know what I'm talking about?"

Ming Wei said: "Didn't Mr. Lei recognize me in Xinyuan the day before yesterday?"

"..." She was so calm, but Lei Hong didn't know how to react.

"Xinyuan?" Mr. Jiang frowned, "The Ming family actually sent you to Xinyuan?"

Mingwei shook his head: "The person who went there should have been my mother. That night, she lost her life."

Jiang Wenfeng is well-informed and quick-thinking. With these few words and a little thought, he connected the things.

"That's it." He sighed, "It seems that the situation of the Ming family is very complicated."

Ming Wei said: "No matter how complicated it is, if you straighten it out one by one, it will all be clear."

Jiang Wenfeng smiled when he heard this: "That's right, what does Miss Seven want to start with?"
