Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

She's still pretending to be confused; she's not clear-headed at all.

Wei Yunzhi said, "When the police arrive, don't say anything. I'll just say you're Commander Shen's mother-in-law, understand?"

I will help you too.

Duanmu Mingyue asked, her eyes glazed over, "Did I really kill someone?"

"Don't worry about that."

You can't go back to the Wei family, so it's perfect that you move into Commander Shen's house. That way, no one will dare to investigate you, and you can also stay with your daughter.

If you don't reveal your identity as Commander Shen's mother-in-law, the police will arrest you and put you in jail. Whether you admit it or not, it will be your crime.

Don't worry, I'll tell you in a bit that he fell down and stabbed himself to death with his own dagger.

Will the police believe that reason?

"They not only believed, they firmly believed."

Wei Yunzhi's words frightened Duanmu Mingyue even more. She was a woman who didn't have much courage to begin with, and her mind was too muddled to make a judgment.

In order to see her daughter, Duanmu Mingyue didn't think too much and just nodded, since she hadn't killed the person.

Perhaps he fell down on his own.

At this moment, several policemen entered, saw the body on the ground, and immediately prepared to arrest Duanmu Mingyue, who was lying on the bed.

Wei Yunzhi hurriedly said, "Be careful, this is Commander Shen's mother-in-law. Yesterday, her two daughters were just taken as concubines by Commander Shen."

Are you sure you want to arrest someone?

Upon hearing this, the police officers were startled and somewhat suspicious.

Wei Yunzhi took out his seal and said, "I am the magistrate of Yangcheng County. This deceased man is my cousin, and this lady is his concubine. How could I lie?"

"Or you could come with me to the Shen residence and ask him if it's true or not?"

The two policemen took the seal, checked it, and saw that it was genuine, so they believed what Wei Yunwen had said.

They were just ordinary soldiers; they dared not offend Shen Hao.

Regardless of this woman's identity, let the higher-ups worry about it.

When gods fight, they suffer.

The news that Shen Hao had been appointed garrison commander had spread throughout the entire Guangdong provincial system, so of course they knew about it.

Their police patrol officers were all under the jurisdiction of the security regiment, and all the security regiments in the province were under the jurisdiction of the garrison commander. So, Shen Hao was their highest-ranking superior.

They exchanged a glance, wanting to pretend they hadn't seen anything, but the large number of people outside made it difficult for them.

Seeing this, Wei Yunzhi understood the situation and said again, "This person is my cousin, Wei Yunwen."

I just saw him walk into the house drunk, carrying a dagger, and then he tripped and fell, stabbing himself to death with his own dagger.

The two policemen's eyes lit up, and they quickly nodded, saying, "Yes, yes, that's exactly right!"

"No wonder I smelled a strong odor of alcohol when I came in."

"I looked around and didn't see any signs of a struggle."

"Carry the body out; we mustn't disturb this lady's rest," Wei Yunzhi said.

"Yes"

Several police officers obediently carried the body out, not only without arresting anyone, but also cleaning up the scene.

Duanmu Mingyue was stunned. The thing that had made her panic and fear disappear so easily.

That's a human life.

"That's all?" Duanmu Mingyue asked in disbelief;

Wei Yunzhi laughed and said, "Of course it's alright. You didn't kill him. Besides, you know nothing about Commander Shen's power."

Just focus on recovering.

"Now that you're free from my cousin Wei Yunwen's control, your good days are just around the corner."

Duanmu Mingyue's eyes lit up, and she felt a little happy, but then fell silent.

Her biggest wish was to get rid of Wei Yunwen's control with her daughter, but now that she has, she has encountered another big problem.

That's Commander Shen.

It's obvious that Commander Shen's power is far more terrifying than Wei Yunwen's. Human lives are treated like a game; these officials are risking their lives to cover for him. Will they truly find happiness in the future?

Could this be just another den of iniquity?

Seeing Duanmu Mingyue lost in thought, Wei Yunzhi smiled faintly and left the room.

He killed his cousin Wei Yunwen after getting him drunk and taking him to Duanmu Mingyue's room.

Whether Duanmu Mingyue knew or not was irrelevant.

It doesn't matter who the murderer is.

Wei Yunzhi wanted to make outsiders know that it was Duanmu Mingyue who killed Wei Yunwen.

Does the truth matter? Not at all.

As long as outsiders misunderstand, Wei Yunzhi's goal will be achieved.

Moreover, how could she not be grateful to me for helping Duanmu Mingyue clear her name?

Can't you stop praising yourself in front of your niece?

At that time, the Wei family wouldn't dare to seek revenge, and I could control the Wei family and gain Duanmu Mingyue's favor. It would be killing two birds with one stone.

About half an hour later, Duanmu Mingyue was filled with fear.

The police chief came in person with a gift to apologize.

"I'm so sorry, Madam Duanmu. Those two were so ignorant and startled you. Here are some tonics for you to help you recover."

Looking at the obsequious and fawning bureau chief, Duanmu Mingyue was somewhat shocked and confused.

Then he realized that the other party was doing it out of respect for Shen Hao.

I felt a mix of panic and enjoyment at the feeling that power brought me; it was a contradictory feeling.

147. Twins are great.

The police chief's sources of information are naturally far superior to those of ordinary police officers.

It was quickly discovered that Shen Hao had indeed taken in two identical women; as for the rest, nothing was known.

But that was enough news; Duanmu Mingyue's identity was confirmed.

As for whether Wei Yunwen lives or dies, who cares?

It has nothing to do with him, so it doesn't matter who killed him.

After making his presence felt here, the police chief left.

Duanmu Mingyue also came to her senses.

For a moment, I didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, Wei Yunzhi was there to help her, for which she was very grateful.

However, news of Wei Yunwen's death quickly reached the ears of Duanmu Qingrou and Duanmu Qingyu.

Wei Yunzhi sent people to inform them of this, but of course he didn't tell them the truth. He only said that Duanmu Mingyue's life or death was in Shen Hao's hands.

When they heard that their mother, Duanmu Mingyue, had killed someone, the two sisters, Duanmu Qingyu and Duanmu Qingrou, were terrified.

They knew the hatred their mother harbored towards Wei Yunwen.

It's very likely they'll kill him.

"What if Mother kills someone? Will she be arrested?" Duanmu Qingrou asked, her eyes red.

"No, I won't let anything happen to Mother," Duanmu Qingyu said calmly, her small fists clenched tightly.

　13 “Sister, but what can we do? We’re just ordinary people too,” Duanmu Qingrou said, covering her mouth as she cried.

Duanmu Qingyu took a deep breath, her eyes gradually hardening as she said, "You've forgotten what Uncle Wei said: Commander Shen can help."

We'll soon be Commander Shen's women. As long as we serve him well, Mother's affairs will be resolved with a single word from him."

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Qingrou nodded hurriedly, her clear yet foolish almond-shaped eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Sis, you're so smart! We'd better really beg that division commander later. But he got promoted so fast!"

"Yes, little sister, you must not anger him. Even if he hits or scolds us, we must not talk back, understand? Begging is useless. We can only serve him well," Duanmu Qingyu said earnestly.

"Yes, sister, I'll do whatever you say." Although Duanmu Qingrou was afraid of being introverted and terrified of what was about to happen, the thought that her efforts could save her mother made them feel that even if they died, it would be worth it.

Shen Hao, of course, knew nothing about all of this.

If Shen Hao knew that Wei Yunzhi had arranged all of this, he would really praise him.

This is what a considerate subordinate should be.

Just as Duanmu Qingrou and Duanmu Qingyu were discussing how to serve Shen Hao.
