behind her back. "Uncle, you don't understand. When you buy something, you have to pick and choose until you find your favorite one, then it's truly happy!"The lord laughed and asked, "Isn't it becau...Wang Yuanwai was about to continue when he abruptly stopped, his expression becoming very complex.

At this moment, Wang Fu came in to report, “Master, Madam is back.”

Master Wang hesitated for a moment and instructed his sons, "Go and stand behind the screen. Don't make a sound, and wait until your mother leaves before coming out."

Meow Meow looked confused, but Li Ge just pulled his younger brother away.

Soon, Wang E came in. Seeing the bowl of medicine on the table, she picked it up and said, "Master, are you feeling better I'll feed you your medicine."

Master Wang suddenly reached out and knocked over the medicine bowl, asking in a low voice, "Wang E, since I married into the Wang family, it's been over ten years. How have I treated you How have I treated the Wang family You know best in your heart, but why would you try to kill me"

Wang E turned pale with fright, her lips trembling as she refused to confess, "What are you saying, Master I don't understand."

"Don't you understand" Wang Yuanwai propped himself up, his anger reaching its peak.

“My headache is because I have a blood clot in my brain. With just a few doses of medicine, a simple prescription to promote blood circulation and dispel stasis, I could be cured. But you repeatedly bribed the doctors to say that my headache couldn't be cured, making me suffer for ten years! Now, I'm about to die! Wang E, how cruel you are!”

Wang E was exposed, covering her face and sobbing.

As a couple for over ten years, she naturally felt sorry for him, but there was no other way.

When Wang the district magistrate saw that she wasn't speaking, he became even angrier and threw the pillow in his hand.

"Even if I've done something wrong, we have two sons. Look at their faces, how could you possibly plot to kill me! What will happen to them when they lose their father You think about that!"

Wang E was so scared that she jumped out of bed. She wiped away two tears and said with determination, “Husband, this life, I have let you down. In the next life, I will definitely be your cow or horse to repay you. It’s too late to regret now. Please take care of your health. When...when you leave, I will raise Li'er and Mao'er well.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned to leave, but a voice called out from behind the screen, "Mother!"

The little cat boy didn't know how old he was and couldn't understand what his parents were arguing about, so he ran out and hugged his mother.

Li Ge'er understood everything, his face pale, legs weak as he walked out, staring at his mother in disbelief.

Wang E suddenly looked at her husband in bed, furious.

She never expected her husband to hate her so much, that he would expose her scheme in front of their child!

She wanted to explain a few things to her eldest son, but she heard a commotion at the door.

A servant rushed in, shouting, “Madam, officers have arrived and want to take you to the government office!”

Wang E immediately flushed, "Why are you arresting me"

But four or five officials had already come in, confirmed Wang E's identity, pinched her arm and walked out.

Li Ge and Mao Ge were terrified. Wang Yuanwai struggled out of bed, shouting for his servants to harness the carriage. Then he took the two children with him and chased after them.

Because of the relocation of the capital, the originally inconspicuous state government office has now been upgraded to the Office of Metropolitan Prefect.

Furthermore, there was much friction between the Kyoto court nobles and the local clans, so the government offices were always bustling with activity.

Therefore, the emperor specially sent a famous upright minister to oversee the situation. He handled all matters impartially and fairly, never considering personal connections, but only focusing on right and wrong and evidence.

Over a year, it has convinced everyone and conflicts have gradually lessened.

After all, no one can get any benefit by going against the official. It's better to sit down and have a good talk...

But today was truly a special day. Early this morning, several dozen people came into town dressed in mourning clothes. Old and young, they were all ordinary folk, yet they carried two tablets, each with tears shaking the heavens.

"Oh, Great Heavenly Master, please help us!"

"Grandfather Wang from all over the world killed our son! Oh, my poor son, he died so unfairly!"

"Dad, I miss you!"

"Ergouzi, up there in heaven, please look down and help your mother seek justice and avenge you!"

Such commotion naturally attracted a crowd of onlookers, who couldn't help but chatter and discuss the situation.

"What are these people saying, about Si Hai Ju Wasn't Si Hai Ju just recently poisoned to death Could it be that same thing again"

"I don't think so. It sounds more like Wang Lao Tai Ye from Si Hai Ju!"

"Grandpa Wang has been dead for years, how could he have committed murder It's impossible!"

"Come on, let's go and see!"

"This royal family is so unlucky, one thing after another never ends…"

Soon, the crowd grew larger and larger. By the time they reached the county government office, so many people had gathered that the street was nearly impassable.

Hearing the drum of grievance, the magistrate hurriedly dressed and ascended to his throne.

Seeing this group of people dressed in mourning, he also frowned and asked them carefully. These people were talking incoherently, and finally pieced together the whole story.

These are two villagers from Daxinghuai Village in the north of the city. Their sons disappeared ten years ago and they haven't been able to find them ever since.

I couldn't find anyone at home, it's very sad.

But yesterday, one of the families went to the city to run errands and had some tea at a teahouse in the south part of the city. They heard something fresh that sounded very similar to what their son had said years ago.

Thus, the two families guessed that their son had been murdered and only then came to report it, wanting to know how their son had died and where his remains were.

Two lives were involved. The magistrate ordered his officers to bring Wang's only daughter while also inquiring into the Wang family's background.

The master standing in the corner was a shrewd man. Besides helping the magistrate with official documents, his main task was to be well-informed about everything that was going on.

As it turned out, his house was located right in the lanes of South City. He had heard everything about the Wang family's affairs from his father, who loved spending time at teahouses, last night.

"At this point, I'll tell the magistrate exactly what I heard. And at the end, I'll add, 'Of course, sir, these are just things that the neighbors near Wang's house have heard, there's no evidence.'"

Although the magistrate was known for his integrity, he wasn't a stubborn fool. Otherwise, he wouldn't have earned the emperor's trust and ascended to this position.

His years of experience in solving cases gave him a sharp intuition that something was amiss.

After all, the Wang family's business collapsed yesterday, and it was revealed that the Wang family's only daughter deliberately refused to treat her son-in-law, almost killing him. Today, someone came to accuse the Wang family of manslaughter. It's really too coincidental.

While coincidences can happen, so many coincidences happening together aren't just coincidence...

Soon, Wang E was escorted over.

The onlookers automatically parted, making way for the officer.

Someone bold, took a good look at Wang E and couldn't help but ask, "Is this the only daughter of the Wang family, the one with a snake-hearted viper"

"It should be, she just refused to treat her husband's illness, dragging him to the brink of death."

"So beautiful, yet such a cruel heart. No wonder they say the most venomous hearts belong to women!"

Wang E heard a few words and was so startled that her face turned pale.

She finally knew why her neighbor avoided her every morning!

I originally thought this was something only our family knew, but I didn't expect it to be common knowledge now!

She felt a little unsteady on her legs, but the officer showed no mercy. He dragged her into the courtroom.

The magistrate glanced at Wang E kneeling below, just about to speak when there was another commotion outside the yamen.

Soon, Wang Yuanwai led his two children to the front of the hall and shouted loudly, "Sir, I am Wang E's husband, Wang Xinchu. Please allow me to enter the hall."

The magistrate nodded, the officers parted, and Mr. Wang led his two children inside. As soon as they entered, they knelt down on the ground.

He was already pale and thin, looking as if he were seriously ill. In such a hurry, his appearance became even more disheveled. When he tried to speak, he coughed up blood.

Although he quickly pulled his sleeve to cover his mouth, there was still a trace of blood at the corner of his lips.

Everyone present, both in the hall and outside, couldn't help but sigh.

"Master Wang is such a kind man, he's about to be killed by this poisonous woman, Wang E, and yet he still comes to protect her."

"Yes, perhaps for the sake of the two children."

"Wang E is too heartless and cruel! Such a good husband is hard to find anywhere else."

"Yeah, people like that really deserve to be struck by lightning!" is for health!""You're so greedy now, and you have so many tricks up your sleeve. Was it because your family fed you too much pig stomach and chicken heart when you were little"Jia Yin hung her head,...
