"How could I know why you wanted to put Sang Pu to death!"

"Magpie, what do you mean? Do you want to bite me? You are so brave!"
.
Ruan Mianmian was angry and anxious. She looked at Zhuang Yuheng and then at Mo Tingfeng, her lips trembling and tears streaming down her face.

She hurriedly stumbled down from the seat, walked to Zhuang Yuheng and pulled his sleeve, "Cousin, believe Mianmian, I really didn't ask this bastard to do this!"

Zhuang Yuheng lowered his head and said nothing. He didn't know what he was thinking and didn't look at her.

Seeing that he ignored her, Ruan Mianmian staggered to Mo Tingfeng again. She wanted to pull him but didn't dare. She just cried sadly and complained about her grievances.

Mo Tingfeng glanced at Ding Heran, who quickly pulled Ruan Mianmian aside.

At this time, a grudge-breaking master came into the hall to report, and people from the Sikong Mansion's prefectural government office had already arrived and were waiting outside the side hall. They could come in at any time to take the magpie away, and he would be dealt with after the detention and trial.
.
"Magpie, you planned to kidnap Sang Pu into a ghost market to be used as human flesh. What you did is heinous and your crime is unforgivable!"

Mo Tingfeng spoke in a deep voice.

"Sichen Mansion is nothing but chaos in the world of mortals. The things you have committed will be handed over to the government for investigation and handling."

He walked to the magpie and leaned over, speaking like ice, "I am a very vindictive person. I will repay you a thousand times for the pain you have inflicted on her."

He glanced sideways at Ruan Mianmian again, "As for whether there is someone behind you, we will definitely get to the bottom of it!"

After finishing speaking, Mo Tingfeng walked towards the presiding position with his hands behind his back.

"take away."
.
"Don't touch me!"

Magpie suddenly stuffed something into her mouth and stopped the grudge-breaker who was about to lift her up and take her out of the temple.

She looked at Ruan Mianmian with a half-smile, "For whom have I worked so hard for so many years, for whom have I gone through life and death, and for whom have I ended up where I am today? You really didn't say a word for me."

Magpie stood up slowly and walked towards Ruan Mianmian.

"Yes, my hands are stained with human blood, but if I are not stained with blood, how can I keep your hands spotless and white?"

"You bitch, don't be slanderous! You committed a crime but you want to drag me into trouble!" Ruan Mianmian was afraid and anxious, hiding behind Ding Heran.

However, the magpie stopped and actually spat out a mouthful of black blood. She clutched her abdomen and looked very painful.

"Master, if I become a lonely ghost, I'm afraid... you will never be able to sleep peacefully..."

After speaking, she twitched and fell down, vomited out another mouthful of black blood, opened her eyes and died.

The grudge-breaker who was closest to the magpie took the lead and reached out to explore the magpie's neck.

"Your Majesty, the murderer has committed suicide by taking poison."

Mo Tingfeng closed his eyes, raised his hand and waved outward, "Leave it to the government to deal with the aftermath. You can go back too."
.
The side hall of Sikong Mansion, which had been noisy all afternoon, suddenly became quiet. Mo Tingfeng sat motionless in the presiding position, and Zhuang Yuheng did not move either.

Ruan Mianmian stood in despair looking at the small pool of black blood on the ground. The candlelight illuminated her figure, and a shadow stretched and flickered on the wall behind her.

Her makeup was stained by tears, and the ink eyeliner drew two long marks on her face with her tears, which was both pitiful and funny.

"Cousin, brother Tingfeng, it's really, really not my instigation. You believe me..."

"Yes! I admit, I am jealous of Sang Pu. I am jealous that she can get your favor! Originally, these preferences belonged to me! But everything changed once she came!"

"I did use some tricks to make her look stupid and embarrass her. I admit all of this, but I definitely didn't instruct Magpie to let some ghost market kidnap people! I swear!"

Mo Tingfeng clenched her cheeks tightly and loosely, dusted her sleeves and stood up, "Yu Heng, I'll go see her first, and I'll leave this place to you."

Seeing that he was leaving, Ruan Mianmian became so anxious that she couldn't care less and rushed over to hug Mo Tingfeng tightly.

"Brother Tingfeng, please believe me! I just asked Magpie to go to the ghost market to buy potions, and I wanted to find an opportunity to tease Sang Pu again. I definitely didn't let that cheap maid do something so heartless as kidnapping people into the ghost market. Activities!”

There were echoes in the empty hall, which made it even more obvious that her crying was endless.

Are all daughters in the family so prone to crying? Mo Tingfeng was distracted. He hadn't seen her for a few hours and he already missed Song Weichen. In his mind, that little girl never cried, even when she was injured and had only one breath left. He wanted her to cry sometimes, so don't always force yourself to do so. He hoped that he could be her shoulders, roof, tree, and mountain, her unconditional support and source of confidence.

Ruan Mianmian's long cry brought his thoughts back to reality. Mo Tingfeng frowned. Not all women's cries are worth coaxing.
.
"Miss Ruan, for Yu Heng's sake, let's stop this matter."

"But...if she makes any mistakes because of you in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After speaking, Mo Tingfeng flicked his sleeves, forcing Ruan Mianmian to let go of his hand and leave.

Ruan Mianmian looked at Mo Tingfeng's back and slumped to the ground regardless of his image, crying uncontrollably.

Zhuang Yuheng walked behind her and wanted to touch her head to comfort her. He stretched out his hand for a moment but finally took it back.

"Why are you so stupid? Our family shouldn't do such a thing."

"Mianmian, you have grown up. But why do you keep growing up? I actually... don't recognize you anymore."

Ruan Mianmian cried even harder when she heard this. She twisted and held Zhuang Yuheng's clothes tightly, "Cousin, it's really not the magpie that I ordered! I have never been to the ghost market, how could I know that there are any kidnappers inside? business? Please believe me!”

"Mianmian knows it's wrong, I really know it's wrong! I will never compete with Sang Pu for favor again. Cousin, please believe me. Please help me..."

Zhuang Yuheng sighed deeply, squatted down and helped Ruan Mianmian, "Get up, I'll take you back home."

"She is recuperating at my place right now, and it is not convenient for you to come. Just stay at home and reflect, and we will talk about it later when this matter passes."
.
When Mo Tingfeng walked into the Marrow Washing Hall, he immediately saw Gu Cangyue standing against the wall with her hands folded across her chest, just like he was guarding Song Weichen that night at Ximanlou. The light was dim, making Gu Cangyue's face look gloomy and unclear.

"How is she?"

"I have been sleeping. I have been tortured by the marks of my previous life, and now I have suffered this disaster. My body has been severely damaged. I am afraid it will be very slow to recover."

Mo Tingfeng lowered his eyes and asked Ding Heran to bring a few of his books today. He will study the method of removing injuries later. If it succeeds, he will feel more at ease.

He gently approached the bed and looked at her. His face was pale, and the blue blood vessels on his face could even be faintly seen. Listening closely, the breathing is very weak, but it is better than steady.

He carefully tucked her into bed and returned to Gu Cangyue again.

"Have you taken any medicine?"

Gu Cangyue nodded.

"What are you doing here? Why don't you go over and sit down?"

"...She's afraid of me."

Gu Cangyue lowered her head and choked out three words, her tone filled with sadness.

The unattainable Luan Bird God in the past could be so distressed because of a mortal woman who was afraid of him. Mo Tingfeng compared her heart with his own, and felt more sympathy for him.

He grabbed Gu Cangyue's shoulders and led him to Yatai aside, "Let's go have a drink."

As if sensing that both of them were in a bad mood, the moon also hid its face in the thick clouds.
.
got windy.

The night wind was strong, causing the branches of the dead trees in the mass grave to tremble, and the crows flew away after shouting hoarsely twice.

The wilderness was even more mysterious. The people in the government office felt a chill on their backs and dug holes faster with their hands.

"Okay, okay, that's it! A criminal who takes poison out of fear of crime does not deserve to be buried alive!"

One of the diggers yelled at the other, and as soon as the two of them worked together, they rolled up the magpie in a straw mat, threw it into the shallow pit dug out in twos and twos, covered it with a thin layer of soil, and left.

They walked on the front foot, and two people came on the back foot. Judging from the shoes, they were both men. They could clearly hear one of them giving instructions to the other.

"Dig it out and take it away."
.
The other one responded, moved his feet forward, took out a shovel and started shoveling the soil to dig out the magpie.

"You said a dead person, why do you want us to take him back?"
