The Reborn Noble Daughter Chapter 228

Chapter 228 228. Darts

So he kowtowed to Feng Jinxu desperately, and when he raised his head again, he was crying and begging for mercy.

“Sir, please spare your life, please spare my life, I'll tell you the truth, I'll tell you the truth!”

Seeing that the situation was over, she was about to speak when she saw a gardener from the second room who had been kneeling in the yard without daring to say a word. Suddenly a man jumped up and aimed a dart at Dingdong, hitting her in the throat and killing her on the spot!

 Then, before everyone could react, he also killed Lao Fu and Fu Li. The same darts were fatal.

"catch him!"

Without waiting for Feng Jinxu, Feng Er and Fu Yan shot at the same time. Unfortunately, they did not start quickly. The darts broke through their throat and quickly broke.

Looking at the corpses on the ground, Feng Jinxu also knew that the thread was broken.

 But based on his intuition, it must be someone in the second room who has a grudge against the second aunt who would lay such a trap.

 The gardeners of the second room who were kneeling kowtow desperately.

“Sir, have mercy on me, please have mercy on me, we all just listen to Cui Tou. We really didn't know that the flower would harm the eldest lady, otherwise we wouldn't have sent it to the second lady's room!”

“You mean my second aunt also has this thing in her room?”

“Yes, yes, it was the second lady who was so happy that she sent us to Dongdu City to cultivate this flower for the eldest lady.”

An unintentional sentence cleared away the suspicion of the second aunt Hua Shi.

In this case, it would be like what the eldest brother said, the person behind the scenes deliberately framed the second aunt in order to sow discord between them and the eldest house.

 But who exactly that person was, Dingdong didn't tell him before he died.

 Everything is back to square one. The only thing that is certain is that the second aunt is innocent.

"You two go down and tell us everything related to the dead Cui Tou. If there is any lie, watch your head."

Feng Jinxu's threatening words made several people afraid.

The corpses left in this place were buried in Baiban, and then they went to the Heavenly Mansion to retaliate, saying that they were the slaves in the family who harmed the master, and they all committed suicide out of fear of crime.

　　Their slave status was cancelled, and they were sent back to their respective homes.

On the carriage back to the city, the three of them were speechless.

At this time, they were about to find out the person behind it. If Cui Tou hadn't killed him, I'm afraid the person behind it would have been revealed now, so why would it be so difficult for them to do so.

At the city gate, Feng Jinxu showed the token he had used at Dali Temple in the past and entered the city smoothly.

By the time the three of them returned to Feng's house, it was already late at night.

　　Everyone is tired after this journey and naturally wants to go back and rest.

Feng Er was afraid that Feng Jinyao had seen blood today. He was so scared that he couldn't sleep and asked Yun Xu waiting at the door to make her a bowl of thick soothing soup so that she could sleep well.

Feng Jinyao knew that her second brother cared about her, and said with some relief.

“Second brother, don't worry, they deserve their death, I'm not afraid of it.”

"That's good."

He said this, but his expression did not relax. He looked at Yunxu and saw her nodding secretly.

They each returned to the courtyard, but Feng Jinlin unexpectedly bumped into an uninvited guest.

 “Sucheng? Why are you here?”

"What are you talking about? Where did you go? I've been waiting for most of the day and I still haven't found you. If you come back so late, are you on some beautiful lady's couch and not wishing you were happy?"

 There was no seriousness in him when we met him, but he showed the look of this **** to his core.

If Feng Jinlin hadn't known his true identity, he would have been deceived by him.

"There is something at home. I went to deal with it with my eldest brother and Ayao. You haven't told me yet. Why are you here?" "I have something important to talk to you about."

Step forward and whisper to Feng Jinlin. He was surrounded by secret guards from Prince Ding's palace, so he was not afraid that the news would be exposed.

"What!"

 The Wen family and his son are so bold! Even in the imperial examination, he dared to openly accept bribes and tamper with the examination papers. Doesn't this chill the hearts of the people in the world?

 That's not what you want to do if you want to die.

He has experienced a lot of temptations since he was a child. If he couldn't resist it, he would be dead by now. But the Wen family is not a family that is short of money, so how could...

 In the final analysis, it is the root cause of the disaster caused by power messing with people's minds.

 “Then what does the prince mean?”

　　"Stand still, wait until the Spring Festival is over, and then deal with the Wen family's crime of deceiving the emperor."

Feng Jinlin nodded, thinking of Yin Canwen who lived in the next room. He was also from a poor family. If Wen Meng had the idea of ​​changing his test papers, wouldn't it mean that he would lose his chance to get ahead.

If such a good talent is really buried because of this, it will be a loss for the Jin Dynasty.

 What Feng Jinlin thought happened to be what Wen Mengsheng planned.

He has been dissatisfied with Yin Canwen for a long time. He is a talented person, but he comes from a poor family. Even if he holds his position, no one dares to question him.

Anyway, every year there are many cases where students from poor backgrounds fail in exams because they are too nervous, and he is no different.

 So, I discussed the matter with my father.

However, Wen Jingsong refused.

"Are you crazy? His reputation has been exposed in Yunqi Academy and Yangchun Poetry Society. Are you going to challenge him? What if he gets the top prize? Is your knowledge worthy of his examination paper? "

At this point, Wen Jingsong was not dazzled by the benefits, but these words were a bit unpleasant, and Wen Mengsheng was not happy.

“Father belittles his child in this way? Is Yin Canwen really that powerful?”

Wen Jingsong smiled. He would not say this about him in other matters, but regarding the matter of talent learning, although he had never dealt with Yin Canwen, this person was favored by all the deans of the four major academies, and he was definitely indistinguishable.

So he waved his hand and said to Wen Mengsheng, "As a father, I will take care of it. If you really want to go to the front, you should try your best."

 One sentence left Wen Mengsheng unable to reply.

His talents and learning are not bad, and he is also ranked among the young masters of the capital's aristocratic families. But compared with Yin Canwen, he is more than a star and a half. If his cousin is here, I am afraid he can still compare with him. He, forget it Bar.

It's a pity that the obsession has taken root in my heart. If a poor boy who entered the Feng Mansion is allowed to compete with him, will he still lose his face?

 An evil thought came into my mind.

On one side, Wen Mengsheng was thinking about how to suppress Yin Canwen. On the other side, the Wen family of the Feng family received a letter from Shuzhou.

 I opened it in a hurry and took a look. I was so happy that I wanted to jump on the spot a few times!

Zhu Jin asked curiously, "What's wrong with grandma? Are you so happy?"

“My mother sent me a letter, saying that I am on my way and I have brought my brothers and sisters with me. I think I will be able to reach the capital in about twenty days.”

“That's great. Grandma hasn't seen her family for a long time. This time, I specially asked my wife to come over and accompany you until the birth. I really care about my affection.”

"yes."

Thinking of my mother and siblings on the road, I felt worried and concerned. It would be better to arrive in Dongdu City earlier so that I could reunite with them as soon as possible.
