Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Chapter 44 - Knowing Her Identity



Chapter 44: Knowing Her Identity

Chu Yun’s words shocked everyone present.

Of course, the exception was Lu Sheng, who was already in shock.

The county magistrate’s eyes flickered, and he bowed to Chu Sihan. “Lord, do you have evidence?”

“Evidence?” Chu Yun shouted outside. “Bring them here.”

After a while, Constable Wang and two constables walked in with two people.

Their faces were pale and they trembled as they knelt on the ground. They claimed that they were wronged.

“Wronged?”

Chu Yun smiled coldly and threw a letter in front of the two men. “This is a letter the both of you wrote to your families. Zhao Wei would give you a sum of money when you’re done so that you can leave this place. It was just that you didn’t expect him to go back on his words.”

Speaking of this, resentment immediately appeared on their faces.

One of them gritted his teeth and said, “That’s right. Young Master Zhao made us do it. He also gave us the poison. He ordered us to do all of these. As his servants, we can only follow his orders.”

“I recognize them. They are indeed Young Master Zhao’s subordinates.”

“Previously, these two men relied on Young Master Zhao’s backing to freeload at my noodles restaurant. I remember them.”

Chu Yun walked forward and said, “As to where the Deng family’s treasures are hidden, Lord Shangguan only needs to interrogate Zhao Wei to find out.”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and handed it to the county magistrate. “Here’s the evidence of Zhao Wei hiring assassins from the Dark Hall and dividing the loot from the Deng mansion. Lord Shangguan, do you still need any other evidence?”

“Since the Lord has evidence, I naturally dare not malign a good person. Ah Ming, since this has nothing to do with you, you may leave.”

The county magistrate bowed respectfully to Chu Sihan before speaking plainly to Ah Ming.

Upon hearing this, Yu Mingyue thanked him happily before leaving with her servant and Ah Ming.

Deng Rumeng also heaved a sigh of relief and stood where she was, watching them leave.

Lu Sheng looked at Chu Sihan thoughtfully before secretly slipping out of the crowd.

She could guess who that ‘magistrate’ was.

It was no wonder that Chu Sihan’s expression turned so ugly when she guessed that the county magistrate was an old and corrupt official.

It turned out that she was not scolding anyone else, much less his ‘uncle’. She was scolding him himself.

The sternness and authority in his eyes did not seem like something a typical young man would possess.

Lu Sheng smacked her forehead. When did she have such poor judgment?

She had really embarrassed herself.

“Taoist Nun, where are you going?”

Deng Rumeng saw her slip away and hurried after her.

Lu Sheng turned back to the street and spoke faintly, “Didn’t you say that all the spirits in the Deng Mansion were suppressed and could not get out? Bring me there.”

“You’ve agreed?” Deng Rumeng’s eyes brightened. “Don’t worry. As long as you finish this task for me, I’ll reward you.”

Lu Sheng disapproved of the promise a ‘female ghost’ made.

When the both of them reached the Deng Mansion, Deng Rumeng entered directly.

Lu Sheng was afraid of alerting the others. Thus, she put on an Invisibility Talisman in advance before walking in.

It would have been better if she didn’t put on the Invisibility Talisman. After putting it on and pushing open the door, she scared the few people who happened to be walking out of the alley opposite them. They were so frightened that they almost peed their pants on the spot.

“Deng… Deng Mansion’s door… was opened just now?”

“It closed… again!”

Someone yelled, “Ghost!”

The rest immediately wet their pants in fear.

Moments later, the news of haunted incidents in the Deng Mansion spread like wildfire.
