Chapter 144 The Truth
Chapter 144 The Truth
"Sister-in-law, it was you who pushed me into the well and drowned me, why did you lie and slander that it was the Prince of Yongyi who killed me? Sister-in-law, am I not good enough to you?
Ever since you married my eldest brother, you have never done any housework and always sleep until noon every day.
I cook meals for the whole family, wash clothes, and clean the house.
You didn't even take care of my two nephews and nieces for a single day. I raised them with all my heart and soul since they were born.
I gave so much, but you didn't show any gratitude at all. Instead, you pushed me into the well when I was least prepared and drowned me.
You are so vicious, what right do you have to live? You should go to the eighteen levels of hell and suffer through mountains of swords and seas of fire."
"What? It turns out that Li Xiaolian was killed by her sister-in-law? She just said she wanted to seek justice for Xiaolian. I thought she was a good person, but I didn't expect she was so vicious."
The guests were frightened when they saw the ghost suddenly appear. Although they were scared, they couldn't help but want to stay and watch.
Liu looked at Li Xiaolian with horror. Although she struggled desperately, she was unable to break free due to her fat body.
I watched Liu foam at the mouth, her legs twitching a few times, and then she became motionless.
Li Tiegen shuddered, turned around and tried to escape.
But after running only two steps, he was hit by a hammer and fell down.
Seeing Li Xiaolian's feet off the ground and her eyes red as she floated towards him, Li Tiegen was so scared that he backed away using his hands and feet, "Don't kill me, don't kill me.
Xiaolian, sister, your death has nothing to do with me, it's..."
Seeing that Li Tiegen was about to say the key point, Yang Qi's heart tightened and he suddenly shouted, "Enough, Miss Xie. Li Xiaolian has already died tragically, and you still want to deliberately use tricks to make her and Li Tiegen become enemies.
They are siblings, and the closest family member to Liu. How could you have the heart to let them kill each other?
As a Kun Dao, you have learned a lot of skills, but instead of killing the evil spirits, you summon ghosts to kill humans.
One death is not enough, you still want to kill innocent people? This is the emperor's feet. Even if you didn't kill the person yourself and drove the ghost to do evil, I will send you to the Dali Temple to seek justice for the dead. "
Seeing Yang Qi's righteous expression, some people were confused.
"What on earth is going on? Who killed Li Xiaolian?"
“I don’t understand it either. One moment they say she was killed by the prince of Yongyi Marquis, and the next moment they say she was pushed into the well and drowned by her sister-in-law.
Now Young Master Yang said that it was Miss Xie who made them kill each other. Who knows what the truth is. "
Xie Lan looked at Yang Qi, "You said that I was the one who caused Li Xiaolian to turn against her brother and sister-in-law?"
Li Xiaolian knew that it was Xie Lan who helped her to seek revenge on her brother and sister-in-law, so she quickly floated over and said, "It wasn't the fairy lady, it was my sister-in-law who killed me."
Yang Qi snorted at Xie Lan, and then put on a righteous face, "Li Xiaolian, did she threaten you to lie? In fact, it wasn't your sister-in-law who killed you, right?
Don't be afraid, there are so many people watching, as long as you tell the truth, no one will dare to harm you."
Xie Lan rolled his eyes. "Mr. Yang, you are so hypocritical. Do you think no one knows that you are the one who did all this?"
Yang Qi's pupils shrank.
With so many things happening, it's not that Prince Yongyi didn't suspect his half-brother, but he had no evidence.
After hearing what Xie Lan said, he finally couldn't help but rush over, "Miss Xie, what do you mean by this? Is there a hidden story behind Li Xiaolian's death?"
Xie Lan nodded, "That's right, even the death of your parents and you two siblings was man-made. Do you want to know who was behind it?
Fifty thousand taels, and I will help you find the murderer."
Yang Fen had long hated the person behind the scenes. When he heard Xie Lan's words, he immediately became excited, "Fifty thousand taels, right? OK, I'll go get the banknote right away."
The old lady and the second wife were already heartbroken after losing two hundred thousand taels. When they heard that Yang Fen was going to give out another fifty thousand taels, they all wanted to stop him.
However, Yang Fen ignored them completely.
He turned around and went to the accountant to get the money.
"Miss Xie, you are so bold that you dare to defraud our Yongyi Marquis Mansion. Come, take her to the Dali Temple." "The truth has not been found out yet. Master Yang is guilty. He wants to take me to the Dali Temple openly, but secretly, does he want to silence me?"
Hearing the pointing and talking of others, Mr. Yang wanted to deny it, but Xie Lan didn't listen.
First, he cast a spell to wake up the Marquis of Yongyi. After Yang Fen brought the banknotes, he asked him to bring his mother and sister over.
Master Yang had a sinister look in his eyes, but he couldn't stop it because there were guests present.
Now that everyone was gathered, Xie Lan didn't hesitate and directly told the truth, "The reason why Li Xiaolian died was not because she was molested by the Yongyi Marquis' son and committed suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation, but because she was pushed into the well by Liu and drowned.
Are you curious about why Liu wanted to kill her sister-in-law?
That's because she was bribed by Yang Qi with five hundred taels.
The reason why Yang Qi did this was that as the son of Marquis Yongyi, he was better than Yang Fen in every way, but the position of the crown prince of the Marquis's mansion had to be inherited by that playboy Yang Fen.
Yang Qi was unwilling to accept this, so he bribed Liu to push Li Xiaolian into the well, and then pinned the blame of Li Xiaolian's death on Yang Fen.
"You are slandering me. What evidence do you have to prove that I did it?"
"Evidence? After Li Xiaolian died, I stayed with Liu and saw with my own eyes her brother and sister-in-law go to you to get the money.
I heard from Liu that she followed your instructions to kill Li Xiaolian and then put the blame on the prince. "
"Miss Xie is right, it's Li..."
Li Xiaolian was about to say that it was Yang Qi who bribed her sister-in-law to kill her, but halfway through her words, her eyes suddenly became dull.
Qiu Tingsong was concentrating on casting a spell when he suddenly felt a whip lashing towards his arm.
Feeling the pain, his hands trembled, and suddenly a strange rattle fell out from his wide sleeves.
He subconsciously wanted to bend down to pick it up, but Xie Lan whipped him away.
"Miss Xie, what do you mean by this? Why did you whip me innocently and snatch my magic weapon?"
"Why did I hit you? Don't you have any idea? Don't you think I can't see that you want to use this soul-catching bell to control Li Xiaolian so that she will change her story and say that it was the son of the Marquis of Yongyi who killed her?"
"You're talking nonsense..."
"Humph, you won't cry until you see the coffin, right? The reason why the Yongyi Marquis and his wife and the Yang Fen siblings got into trouble is that you invited the evil ghost who wanted to take their lives.
The purpose is to help Yang Qi get rid of Yang Fen so that he can inherit the position of the crown prince."
"According to what Miss Xie said, we only need to get rid of Yang Fen. Why do we need to kill the Marquis, his wife and their daughter?"
“At first you really only intended to kill Yang Fen, but later Yang Qi was not satisfied with the position of Crown Prince, and wanted to directly inherit the title of Marquis Yongyi.
You originally didn't want to kill the Marquis, but Wu wanted you to help Yang Fen get rid of him, and then kill the Marquis's wife and her daughter, and put the blame on Li Xiaolian, before she agreed to marry Yang Li to you.
Moreover, Wu and Yang Qi also promised that if you help to accomplish this matter, they will give half of the Hou Mansion's property as a dowry to Yang Li, so that you can use the money to make connections in the officialdom, in the hope of getting promoted to a higher position."
