Riding the Pheonix Chapter 85: Also

"Oh, Dad Qi, why are you still drinking tea here? Let's go and see Mr. Jiang interrogating the case."

"What's so strange about Sir Jiang's trial? Don't they do it every day?"

"Today is different. The case being tried is the county king's case! Sue the county king. This kind of thing may not happen once in your life. Do you want to go and see it?"

"What? The trial is really starting! Go, go, let's go together!"

Similar conversations occurred in more than one place in Dongning City. When they learned that Jiang Wenfeng was going to interrogate Prince Qidong's case, the common people who had nothing to do with them crowded over to watch.

Sure enough, they saw the long history of the county prince's palace.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, even the king of the county dares to interrogate him. Jiang Qingzhen is well-deserved and has an impartial and impartial face.

……

Compared to the bustling government office, the Ming family is much deserted.

Besides the official, there were only two scribes sent here.

They asked Mr. Ming Er for a room, and then asked about the case from the list of servants.

"Name."

"The villain Jiao Si."

"Age."

"Forty-seven."

"Are you a gardener?"

"Yes, sir." Jiao Si rubbed his hands, feeling very uneasy.

"Ten years ago, you participated in the renovation of Yu Fang Yuan?"

"Yes, the younger one is responsible for trimming the flowers and trees."

"That willow tree, do you remember it?"

Jiao Si became even more uneasy: "That was planted by a villain."

"Then do you know about the bones buried under the willow tree?"

Jiao Si knelt down with a plop: "Sir, this is none of the villain's business! When the villain planted the tree, there was nothing there!"

"I didn't say it was none of your business!" the official yelled, "Think carefully, what was wrong at that time!"

"Villain, villain don't remember!"

"You don't remember even if you don't think about it? Think carefully!"

"Yes..."

After asking for a whole day, before the three of them left the house, Mr. Ming Er came to ask: "Three adults, we have prepared meals at home. How about a meal before leaving?"

The official held a stack of confessions: "I'm here to do errands today, how can I disturb Mr. Ming Er? Let's wait for another day!"

"Hey, you need to eat when you are on errands! The food is ready, why don't the three adults even give you this little face?"

"This..."

The second master smiled with a smile on his face: "The three adults are running for the reputation of my Ming family. I have no way of repaying you. I only treat you to a meal like this. Isn't it too much?"

When it came to this offer, the official agreed: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Ming Er."

……

These confessions were delivered to Yu Fang Yuan at night.

Still in Liujingtang, Yang Shu sat with his legs crossed and asked Duofu: "I heard that your preserves are good, why don't you use them to entertain guests?"

Duofu went to see Mingwei.

Mingwei flipped through the confession and waved casually.

Dofu then went to get the candied fruit.

Yang Shu sighed: "You are so loyal girl. You only get a candied fruit, but you still have to look at your face."

"Even if it's just candied fruit, it's still mine."

With that said, Mingwei put down the confession and picked up the tea.

"You don't see anything, right?" Yang Shu raised his chin, "Ten years is really too long."

Mingwei ignored him, drank tea for a while, pinched a candied fruit and ate it slowly, then said: "There is another person, I ignored it."

"Who?"

"Mother Tong."

Yang Shu was startled.

"Counting the time, when Geng San arrived in Dongning, my mother had already come back. The maids back then were all married off, and the servant women were also transferred, but the child nanny has always been with my mother. If we say, who is right? She is probably the one who knows the most about what happened years ago."

Yang Shu closed the fan and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Call me and ask!"

Mingwei stood up and said, "Mommy is not in good health, so I'd better go and ask." After a pause, "Do you want to come with us?"

Yang Shu looked outside and touched his chin: "If I am caught by someone, will I be caught and raped again?"

Ming smiled: "Master, are you afraid?"

When she smiled, Yang Shu snorted: "You are not afraid, but I am even more afraid! Let's go!"

……

These days, Su Jie and Bing Xin have been taking turns accompanying Nanny Tong.

To explain who was hit hardest by the death of the third lady, it must be Mother Tong.

She is an old servant of the Ji family. She became pregnant with Mrs. Ming San and married into the Ming family with her. From the beginning to the misery, she witnessed everything with her own eyes.

As Ming Wei said, although she is a servant, she is also an adoptive mother.

As soon as Mrs. Mingsan died, Mother Tong fell ill. It was not a serious illness, but she just couldn't recover.

Awan said it was due to depression, and she could only relieve herself, otherwise, no matter how much medicine she drank, it would not work.

The girls were worried that she would not survive, so they divided the work, with Su Jie and Bing Xin taking care of her day and night.

On this day, watching Nanny Tong fall asleep, Sujie decided to tidy up and take a rest himself.

"Knock! Knock!" There was a gentle knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?"

"It's me." Mingwei lowered his voice, "Sujie, open the door."

As soon as Su Jie opened the door, someone covered her mouth.

She was startled, almost thinking it was a bad guy posing as a lady, but then she saw a familiar face.

Before I felt relieved, another person squeezed in the door.

Man!

Su Jie wanted to scream, but her mouth was covered. ~IndoMTL.com~ Don’t be afraid. "Mingwei said softly, "He is not a bad person. ”

Su Jie was very uneasy and kept glancing at Yang Shu.

The man who appears in Yu Fang Yuan in the middle of the night is never a good person!

"It's my young master!" Ah Wan covered her mouth impatiently, "Anyway, don't scream, and I will let you go."

Before Su Jie could say anything, Mingwei smiled first: "If you say that, she will be even more frightened."

Master Yang, what kind of reputation is that?

Awan: "..."

"Anyway, he is my guest." Mingwei reassured, "Let's meet grandma."

Sujie, who was finally let go of her mouth, swallowed her saliva and stepped back: "Mommy, just go to sleep."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old voice of Mother Tong sounded: "Sujie, is the lady here?"

"Yes, mama." Sujie went to the house.

"Mommy." Mingwei followed, "Did I wake you up?"

Mother Tong sat up, put on Sujie's coat, and shook her head: "I'm not asleep yet! Miss came here in the middle of the night, is there something important?"

Ming smiled and said, "I have something I want to ask Grandma."

"Is it related to Madam's death?"

Mingwei was silent and nodded: "That's right."

Mother Tong ordered: "Light the lamp for the vegetarian festival."

Ming Wei is in a complicated mood.

She knew that Mother Tong had never let go of this matter. She would miss Mrs. Mingsan's death for a day without explaining it. Probably, only when those evildoers are punished can her mental illness be cured.

"Mommy, I want to ask something..."

"Ask, Miss." Mother Child interrupted her, "I know what the Miss is doing. If there is a need for a slave, just ask the Miss, and the slave will do her best."

After a while, Mingwei smiled softly: "Okay. Don't worry, mama, I will do my best."
