295 Protector or Schemer.

The Ji family was immediately plunged into chaos, they did not even in their wildest dreams thought that they will lose a member of their family for no reason at all, didn’t Ji Xianglan only interrupted the investigation? How come his crime got this big where he was executed?

But the truth was in front of them, Ji Xianglan was not executed. He was murdered! And the murderer was none other than Liu Dong Ming.

Ji Yang looked at the letter that he found in Ji Xianglan’s pocket and felt his entire body tremble ——

‘Did you like my little gift, Lord Ji? I hope you did. I am still bursting with excitement at the gift that you sent me a few days ago, now I hope you burn in the same excitement as I am.’

” That damned old bastard! Why did he not die back then!” Ji Yang crumpled the letter that he was holding in his hands and breathed heavily as he looked around the prison wildly. His brother’s cries infiltrated his ears and Ji Yang felt his head throb, Liu Dong Ming! That man was born to ruin him.

Not only he wrote a letter to make fun of him, he even had someone write the letter in Ji Meng’s handwriting. It was like he was mocking him without even showing his face!

” Brother, you have to make the Liu family pay for this! They have to pay for this!” Ji Shun looked at his brother, his eyes crazed as he held the body of his son who was beheaded. Ji Shun could see that the pain his son had to go through was not something a human shall ever face, even in death his eyes were opened with dread and terror.

What Liu Dong Ming did to his son was simply inhuman!

Ji Shun looked down at his son and his beheaded corpse, even though he has placed the head of his son on the decapitated corpse, he could still see the clean and deep cut in the neck of his son. His heart ached so much that it was bursting to come out of his chest, his son … his precious son!

.....

Ji Yang rubbed his forehead as he looked at Ji Xianglan’s corpse and felt his eyes sting. Ji Xianglan was his nephew, of course, he was upset that he was killed but when faced with the choice of his son or his nephew, he was obviously going to choose his son. If he was to drag this matter any further then he was sure that Liu Dong Ming will fight to the death with him and even drag his wife and son into the mess.

He could not allow that to happen which was why he has to sacrifice someone.

” Brother Shun, please calm yourself...I know that you are aggrieved but we have to think of the bigger picture,” Ji Yang told his brother causing Ji Shun who was crying on the ground to look up at him a shock. Did his brother just say that they were going to leave this matter alone? His son just died how can his brother even say something like this? Liu Dong Ming should pay for what he has done!

” Brother Yang——”

But before Ji Shun could say anything Ji Yang interrupted him and said, ” I know that you are not reconciled but you should think about it carefully, brother. If we drag this matter then your sister-in-law and nephew will be dragged as well, think about it…I have lost a son as well didnt I? For the sake of our family will have to think about it carefully.”

Ji Shun felt his heart die upon hearing what his brother said, Ji Meng died because he was guilty of killing the two consorts but why did his son have to die? He did nothing and was just protecting Ji Mo!

Even though he felt unfair, he could not say anything because a second later Ji Yang lowered his body and patted him on the shoulder before adding, ” I know that you will make the right choice brother because certain sacrifices are important for achieving the big picture.”

Ji Shun did not understand and he did not want to understand it either, he simply looked at his brother and then breathed out. ” I understand, Lord Ji.”

” Wow, did he really do that?” Liu Hui Ying turned to look at Nanny Gong who was serving her breakfast because the latter was rather angry with her, Nanny Gong did not look at her but she still told everything that she knew about Liu Hui Ying.

” En,” replied Nanny Gong as she placed a bowl of plain porridge in front of Liu Hui Ying with a sulking face. ” The head of the family is not someone who will willingly suffer a loss in the hands of others, he always retaliates in one or another.”

Qui Ai who was not as angry as Nanny Gong at Liu Hui Ying for sneaking out immediately chimed in a beat later and said, ” I heard from the other maids that now the two young masters of the Ji family will be buried together on the same day as consort Liu, it’s like the head is telling everyone that if you harm one member of the Liu family …you will lose two members—— isn’t he too cool for this, your majesty?”

” Ahem,” Nanny Gong warned Qui Ai to not speak too out of the line and immediately the latter lowered her head and stopped speaking, seeing that Nanny Gong was taking her anger out on Qui Ai indirectly, Liu Hui Ying turned to look at the elderly woman and said, ” Oh come on, Nanny Gong. Little Ai is right, my eldest uncle is indeed too cool.”

She thought that he was like a villain but instead he looks more and more like a protector to her now. But if he was acting as the guardian of the Liu family why did he send the original Liu Hui Ying to this imperial palace and his daughter as well? f𝗿𝙚e𝙬𝗲𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵ𝑒𝗹. 𝒄𝑜𝘮

Liu Hui Ying took a bite of her porridge and hummed silently. If she was to speak the truth, Liu Dong Ming—— he confused her a lot. She really couldn’t see through him at all.

Just as she was pondering over Liu Dong Ming, she noticed water droplets dripping in her bowl. A bit annoyed she looked up at the ceiling thinking that it was a leakage but to her surprise —— the ghost of a woman was hanging upside down and smiling at her in a terrifying manner.

Liu Hui Ying: “...….” Aish, she could not catch a break in this place.
