Fortunately, Senator Yang was close by. He was a shrewd and capable man. As soon as he saw what the Fourth Young Master said at that time, he knew that he was going to commit suicide. When he saw the Fourth Young Master rushing over, he grabbed the man and cushioned the momentum. Even so, because he used too much force, the Fourth Young Master still got a bloody hole on his forehead, and blood was oozing out, which was very creepy.
The Ji family attaches great importance to family affection among each other.
Perhaps because they were almost exterminated by the Mu family, the Ji family cherishes the affection between relatives very much. Especially when Grandpa Ji came to be the head of the family, he would never allow his sons to divide the family. Therefore, the relationship between his grandchildren is very good. They eat and live together, grow up together, and study together, just like real brothers.
Now seeing that the Fourth Young Master was half dead, the eldest Young Master Ji could no longer stop crying and shouted at the top of his voice to find a doctor.
Councillor Yang also felt a little emotional, thinking that the fourth young master was indeed a rare unlucky guy in the world, so he asked his personal soldiers to go out and find a doctor quickly.
Mrs. Ji Er finally couldn't keep calm anymore and rushed towards her son.
The fourth young master was still conscious. When he saw Second Madam Ji coming over, he was able to brush off Second Madam Ji's hand and said breathlessly, "Mother, don't hate your son. If there is anything wrong, your son has died and it is an apology. You, you tell the adults, who is going to replace someone and harm His Highness?"
Any mother would not be able to watch her child die in front of her.
After hearing these words, Madam Ji could no longer bear it. She burst into tears and begged Councillor Yang to get a doctor over. She cried, "I'll tell you everything! It's not the Ji family trying to curry favor with Hong Rui, nor is it the Ji family trying to get Hong Rui up on the stage. It was all my idea! It was all my idea!"
Young Master Ji stared at her with hatred: "Why is Second Aunt like this?! Has our Ji family ever done anything to offend you?!"
In the main room separated by a wall, Su Yao and Mrs. Ji sat opposite each other, while Mrs. Liao was sitting at the top. When they heard the noise coming from next door, the three of them had different expressions on their faces.
Mrs. Ji was so shocked and angry that she wanted to stand up several times with an anxious look on her face, but she finally held back.
Mrs. Liao listened with some fear and couldn't help looking at Su Yao.
It was Su Yao who asked the eldest young master Ji to take the fourth young master outside to listen, and then asked the eldest young master to find a way to bring the fourth young master into the room.
She had long thought that the noble lady who could follow here from the capital must be extraordinary, but she had never expected that she would be so extraordinary.
Su Yao's ability to manipulate people's hearts is truly astonishing.
Originally, if Senator Yang tortured Madam Ji, a woman, she might not be able to endure it, and she would confess in the end.
However, it would never be as fast as it is now, nor could it be so thorough. If torture was used, there would definitely be a tug of war and testing.
Now, Mrs. Ji's army has been defeated and has no will to fight anymore.
She couldn't help but think a little more.
Su Yao herself did not show any expression. She raised her eyebrows and listened to the crying, shouting and cursing coming from next door. Until she heard Mrs. Ji Er say a name, she snorted, put down the teacup in her hand and stood up suddenly.
Mrs. Liao's energy was now all on Su Yao, so as soon as Su Yao stood up, Mrs. Liao almost immediately asked: "Changning County Princess, what happened?"
Su Yao had already walked out the door and went straight to the next door.
Madam Ji was still crying and kowtowing to Councillor Yang: "I was blinded by greed. My parents have always had my brother as their only son, and they treated him like the apple of their eye. But my brother was not up to the standard. He chose to follow the chivalrous spirit of others, got into trouble, and killed someone. People said... If I didn't help, they would have killed my brother! My parents are old, how could they bear the pain of seeing their child die..."
It turned out to be because of this. Mrs. Ji, who came over, was shocked, angry and disappointed.
The Second Madam Ji has been easily influenced by others for a long time. In the past, she had caused countless incidents of giving subsidies to her parents' family. When the Second Madam was in charge of the household, she even withheld the money of the servants in her own house and pooled the money together to send to her parents' home for her brother's expenses. After that, no one dared to let the Second Madam be in charge anymore.
This is just one of the things. There is something even more ridiculous - the second wife of Ji wholeheartedly wanted her niece from her natal family to marry the fourth young master so that they could be related relatives and let the Ji family continue to help her natal family. Therefore, she made things difficult for Hong Rui and only gave up after the engagement was confirmed.
Now, in order to help her brother, Mrs. Ji has sacrificed her husband's family and even her children.
How foolish!
Hearing this, the fourth young master also felt wronged and angry: "Uncle again! Why is it that in mother's heart, uncle is always more important than me and my brothers and sisters?!"
The second wife just wiped her tears.
Su Yao ignored the argument between mother and son and asked coldly, "You said before that your brother said he got in trouble with a man called Qi Ye?"
Seventh Master, Bai Qith Master.
There are no such coincidences in this world, and Su Yao never believes in coincidences.
Then, this Seventh Master should be Bai Qiye.
They move really fast. How many eyes are there here, and even in the imperial envoy's team, to set up these layers of traps? They keep people busy every day.
Mrs. Ji had nothing to hide now. When she heard the question, she cried and coughed for a while: "Yes, it was the Seventh Master. He said that he was very powerful. We didn't believe it at first, but he let the dog bite off a part of my brother's finger... We, we were really scared,"
What could she do when her parents knelt in front of her and begged her
Did she really watch her brother die
Her younger brother is not very ambitious, but he is also the lifeblood of their family. In the future, they will have to rely on her younger brother to leave descendants for the family!
The eldest and fourth young masters had nothing to say.
Su Yao nodded at Senator Yang, indicating that Senator Yang could continue questioning and taking notes, and then he turned and left.
Councillor Yang was actually a little dissatisfied. After all, although Su Yao was a county princess, that was a title granted by imperial decree. No matter how noble a female relative was, why would she interfere in the official affairs of men
For example, in today's incident, why should Su Yao be allowed to sit in and give advice
Now he rushes in and interrupts me when I'm asking questions. He really doesn't know what he's talking about!
However, he did not do anything in front of them. After all, he was in the wrong and there was no need to offend Su Rong and the others.
Su Yao didn't know what Councillor Yang was thinking. As soon as she left the house, she asked someone to find Su Rong and asked softly, "How is the situation over there, Your Highness?"
Su Rong said, "We are still interrogating the people I caught. They must be related to this matter."
Su Yao nodded and told Su Rong: "Brother, go and discuss with Lord Liao and bring some people to Madam Ji's parents' home."
