Quickly pass through and refuse to be cannon fodder

All the attention in the capital was focused on this case. Even if Zeng Yuanxin ran around, it was useless. With the presentation of evidence, and the appearance and confession of relevant witnesses, Zeng Kang's charges were cleared under the joint trial of the three divisions. Nailed to death, he not only colluded with foreign enemies to betray the army and interests of the Daning Dynasty, but also murdered his own brother and nephew.

The crime was carried out, and the title of Uncle Yongyi's mansion was confiscated on the spot, and the family was ransacked and beheaded without pardon. To the emperor, this crime of Zeng Kang was heinous. If he didn't punish the three clans, he would have killed them. For Zeng Heng's father and son and Zeng Yuanjing's sake.

The uncle's residence was sealed off, and all members of the Zeng family were kicked out, including the old lady lying on the bed. Since she was also Zeng Heng's mother, her private property was not confiscated, so the family would not be penniless. Living on the streets with a penny, if managed well, life will be better than most ordinary people.

It's a pity that the Zeng family was in a mess.

This time, Yuan Jing still rejected the title, preferring to be a white body. The reason for his rejection was that when he saw this title, he would think of why his father and brother died, and wanted to kill his selfish and vicious uncle, so he would rather not have this title. Live quietly.

When the date of Zeng Kang's execution was set, Yuan Jing made a special trip to the prison, and Jing Lie was of course by his side.

The jailers knew that His Majesty valued this young master, so when Yuan Jing proposed to have a few words with Zeng Kang alone, they did not stop them and retreated, giving space to the pair of uncles and nephews.

How did Zeng Kang think that he had changed from an uncle to a prisoner, and that he would be executed in a short time? Only then did he get scared, and rushed over and begged: "Nephew Yuan Jing, save uncle, uncle doesn't want to die, look Since my uncle has raised you for more than ten years, as long as you save Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely spare me."

Yuan Jing looked at him coldly, and Zeng Kang, who had never received a response, finally saw Yuan Jing's expression clearly. He stepped back a few steps, showing a sinister look: "Did you already know? Did everything before Did you do it on purpose? Well, I didn't expect my good nephew to pretend to be stupid and fool everyone."

Only then did Yuan Jing speak: "Isn't this what it should be? As long as I show a little cleverness, you can tolerate me to survive? I was so obese and stupid before, and you poisoned me. Zeng Kang, Zeng Kang, I Shouldn't it be said that you are being smart? Back then when you decided to kill my father and brother, you wanted to kill two birds with one stone, so that you can win the title and please His Majesty, right?"

"Yes! So what? It's your mother's fault for having such a face that not only fascinates your father, but also His Majesty never forgets her. Rather than letting His Majesty vent his anger on the Palace of Yongyi, it is better to give her to His Majesty." Isn't it better? But my good elder brother is a dead-headed person who opposes His Majesty. If he doesn't die, whoever will die? But I didn't expect that woman to be so stupid. She would rather die than enjoy the great glory and wealth. Your Majesty still vented her anger. It's all your fault that we're in the Marquis!"

"Haha, do you think His Majesty will really let you go? You are daydreaming that I was able to do so smoothly back then, and you thought it was all due to me? Haha, my good nephew, I will wait and see you underground It's fun, let's see how you break free, anyway, don't you like men, what's the difference?"

Jing Lie sneered at the side: "Do you think Yuan Jing is as selfish and greedy as you? Since you brought Yuan Jing into the palace, you have stepped into Yuan Jing's calculations, and you still don't know yourself. How did he die? Do you really think Yuan Jing is as stupid as you?"

"It's you? It's you? It's impossible, you don't have the ability to do it!" Zeng Kang went crazy. He thought that someone behind him was helping Zeng Yuanjing deal with him, just because of his title, but now Jing Lie told Everything behind him was controlled by Zeng Yuanjing. He actually let such an enemy grow up. If he had known this, he might as well have killed this nephew and sent their family to reunite underground.

Yuan Jing looked at the crazy Zeng Kang with cold eyes and said, "When you go underground, instead of seeing my end, you should think about how to face my father, brother and grandfather. You have to explain to them first."

"By the way, Your Majesty said that he would give me the title, and he was still a marquis. Unfortunately, I rejected it again. Look, the title of the Zeng family that you value so much has been pushed out of my hands twice. The Zeng family has completely fallen into ruin. You are an ordinary person, will the ancestors of the Zeng family spare you?"

"So you should worry about yourself first, and your children outside. Without the aura of family background, what kind of life do you think they will live in?"

After speaking, Yuan Jing chuckled, and walked out hand in hand with Jing Lie. At the last moment, Jing Lie turned his head and showed Zeng Kang a malicious smile, which made Zeng Kang take a few steps back and fell to the ground, clutching his hands. His own face sobbed.

Leaving the dungeon and returning to the sunlight outside, Yuan Jing looked up at the sun in the sky and sighed: "This Zeng Kang is really selfish and stupid. Who would have thought that he would kill his father, brother and others for such a reason."

Jing Lie said: "Now he seeks benevolence and gets benevolence."

Yuan Jing narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's take another look at the old lady."

According to his estimates, the old lady was not in good health, and she suffered such a blow, and she probably won't live long, but what does this have to do with him? She pretended to be a filial son in front of her all day long, but killed her eldest son The eldest grandson's murderer.

When Yuan Jing and Jing Lie came to the current Zeng's house, it was the old lady's privately owned house, and it was full of noise, because the whole family was arguing about dividing the property.

In the past, those concubines and concubines did not dare to do anything to the wife of the Song family, but now Zeng Kang is about to be beheaded. The Song family can't wait to get rid of her relationship and will not be her backer, and they are not willing to stay. In the capital, if you stay here with the title of a murderer's father on your back, it's better to take the money and fly away and find another place to start from scratch.

Even the Song family may not want to deal with these concubines and concubines, but she doesn't want to share the old lady's things with them. In her opinion, these things should belong to her pair of children. Her wealth and wealth, these belongings are now closely watched by her, and they are arguing and arguing, but no one cares about the health of the old lady, and Nanny Lin can't stop these people from running up to the old lady to make a fuss.

When Yuan Jing appeared at this time, Nanny Lin felt that she had seen a savior, and those concubines and concubines and concubines also lost their voices.

Mrs. Song and Zeng Jingshu stared at Zeng Yuanjing who suddenly appeared bitterly. In their opinion, it was Zeng Yuanjing who brought the uncle's mansion into such a state, and even killed their husband and father. They wished they could pounce on him and bite him flesh and drink his blood.

"You still have the guts to come here?" Zeng Jingshu screamed.

Yuan Jing was surprised: "Why am I ashamed to come here? I let Zeng Kang kill my father and elder brother. I didn't ask you to settle the score and blame you. It's good. By the way, the poison on my body is still your mother." Shouldn't I be the one asking you if my good aunt has any face?"

"Or why don't I, the victim, just die, so that you perpetrators don't have to worry about your actions and dark and shady psychology, and be exposed to the sun?"

"Ah—you're going to die!" Zeng Jingshu really rushed up to scratch Yuanjing.

But the person who hadn't met Yuan Jing kicked Zeng Jingshu away, and Zeng Yuanliu and the others saw the man standing next to Yuan Jing, and slowly retracted the outstretched foot , Subconsciously took a few steps back, for fear that the foot would fall on them.

"Jingshu!" Mrs. Song threw herself on her daughter.

Zeng Yuanxin, on the other hand, was always in a dazed state, that is, when Jing Lie kicked Zeng Jingshu away, he came back to his senses, but he couldn't say anything to accuse Shang Yuanjing's cold eyes. He was murdered by his father, and the three divisions interrogated him. He knew that it was impossible to wrong his father, so facing Yuan Jing, a cousin he had looked down upon, he was ashamed to the point of shame.

Since there was nothing to say, Yuan Jing just passed by him, ignoring him, just like Zeng Yuanxin did to him.

Seeing Yuan Jing, Sister Lin said sadly: "Fourth young master, you are finally here, the old lady..."

"I'll go in and see the old lady."

Nanny Lin nodded again and again, and brought Yuan Jing in. Now there are no servants in the house, just some loyal servants, like Nanny Lin, otherwise the old lady who can only lie on the bed without anyone to take care of her will definitely stink. , how could it be possible to lie there refreshed like now.

Hearing the sound outside, the old lady looked out desperately, and made a "hehe" sound from her mouth. The symptoms were more serious than the first stroke. The last time may have been a small stroke, but this time it was a major stroke. Also lost a lot of weight and got older.

"Old lady, I'm here to see you." Yuan Jing stood by the bed and looked down at the old man on the bed.

Two lines of muddy tears rolled out of the old lady's old eyes. She was sad and sad. Why did the great Hou's mansion fall into this state today? The grandson was almost killed by the second child's family right under her nose, and she couldn't see the old man and the boss when she went underground.

"Old lady, I just went to see my second uncle. I told my second uncle that I did everything. It was my intention to move out in front of His Majesty, and it was also me who asked someone to re-investigate the death of my father and brother." , After finding the evidence, I asked my uncle to come to the capital to sue. I personally sent my second uncle to the prison. Will the old lady blame me? But I don’t regret it, evil will be rewarded, it’s not that I didn’t report it, it’s just that the time has not come That's all."

"Although the old lady is my grandmother, I can't forget the past, so I won't come here if there is nothing to do in the future. I will leave a sum of money for Madam Lin. This money is for the old lady's pension. In the future If you are short of money, let Mother Lin find me, but I won't take care of the others."

"That's it, old lady, take care of your health. The house is in a mess, and it's okay if you don't have a family member."

After Yuan Jing finished speaking, he turned to look at Nanny Lin, not at all worried that she would tell what she heard. As a son of man, shouldn't it be right to avenge his father and brother? He took out 1000 taels of silver and handed it to Nanny Lin: "The money is well hidden, Madam, there is no need to tell them. They will not be able to share the money if they want to divide the family property. Let's save it to buy some good medicine for the old lady to keep healthy."

"Thank you, Fourth Young Master, thank you Fourth Young Master for still thinking about the old lady." Nanny Lin sobbed, even if she heard the cause and effect, she couldn't blame Fourth Young Master. What a wonderful young master.
