《The Story of Ming Lan》E73
Episode 73
Xiao Qin changed his usual gentle and virtuous demeanor and threatened the fourth couple. Who in the Gu family had not spilled all the dirty things he had done on Gu Tingye. It would be useless to defect now.The Xiao Qin family was determined to let Gu Tingye die, and the Queen Mother was their only support. They also lured the fourth-bedroom couple, saying that if Gu Tingye died, maybe Gu Tingbing would get a good title.
In the early morning, Mrs. Wang pounded the Dengwen drum outside the palace, claiming that she had been wronged.Zhao Zongquan looked at Uncle Wang, who said he wanted to sue Gu Tingye for killing his sister Kang Wang.Zhao Zongquan announced that Mrs. Wang had entered the palace. Mrs. Wang claimed that Gu Tingye had killed her daughter by piercing her chest with a sword. Gu Tingye naturally wanted to defend herself.Mrs. Wang, however, brought out the evidence that Gu Tingye set fire to the Hou Mansion and asked Zhao Zongquan to present the witness.Zhao Ceying suggested listening to Gu Tingye first, but Mrs. Wang directly asked Gu Tingye if she dared to allow witnesses to come to the palace. Gu Tingye was naturally not afraid.Zhao Zongquan then brought the Xiao Qin family, Sifang and Kang Jin to the palace. Gu Tingye looked like he was watching a good show, and then reported the scene of the day to Zhao Zongquan.Xiao Qin claimed that Gu Tingye set a fire in Gu Tingwei's yard, and that Aunt Kang went to put out the fire.
Mrs. Wang and others confused right and wrong. When Gu Tingye defended, he almost told about Aunt Kang's poisoning of Mrs. Sheng. Seeing that Gu Tingye did not say that he wanted to report it immediately, Sheng Changbai did not say anything despite Sheng Hong's look.In desperation, Zhao Zongquan ordered Dali Temple to conduct a thorough investigation.After going to court, Sheng Changbai stopped Gu Tingye and asked him what his plans were, but just now he blocked his words, which was really strange.Gu Tingye couldn't say anything, so when he saw that Sheng Changbai was still struggling, he knocked him out and carried him to the carriage.Sheng Hong was stunned, and Gu Tingye told him to keep an eye on Sheng Changbai.
Gu Tingye hid until night before tiptoeing back to the house, but Sheng Minglan woke up with a start, and everyone in the capital knew about it.Sheng Minglan knew that Gu Tingye didn't want to drag down the Sheng family, and Sheng Changbai didn't want to drag him down, but things had to be prioritized, and Gu Tingye had to say it!But Gu Tingye refused. Once he told them, the future of Sheng Minglan, Sheng Changbai, Sheng Hong, and the entire Sheng family would be ruined.Sheng Minglan blamed herself very much. She was the one who missed Gu Tingye.Gu Tingye hurriedly comforted him. Without Sheng Minglan, he would be just a duckweed now, but now when he wakes up and sees Sheng Minglan next to him every day, he always feels at ease.Sheng Minglan hugged Gu Tingye with tears in her eyes. She was extremely scared.Sheng Minglan took her son to see Gu Tingye off early in the morning. She was always waiting for his return.
Gu Tingye and Xiao Qin's servants had different opinions, and it was difficult to decide for a while. Zhao Zongquan could only ask people to continue questioning.Zhao Ceying and General Geng ran to Zhao Zongquan to plead for mercy again and again, but Mrs. Wang refused to leave in front of the Kaifeng Mansion, attracting countless people to watch and talk about gold.Qi Heng specially ran to Gu Tingye and said that he saw Aunt Kang when he was putting out the fire, and happened to see her raising a knife to kill someone.Gu Tingye asked him what color Aunt Kang was wearing, and he saw through Qi Heng's words at a glance. Aunt Kang had already died when he came to put out the fire that day.Qi Heng felt that someone would always believe what he said. He hated evil people framing the case and would not hesitate to give false testimony.Gu Tingye knew Qi Heng's affection, but Qi Heng couldn't take risks.Sheng Minglan happened to be taking medicine, but Grandma Chang ran to stop her in a panic. When her family was in poverty, she ran a medicine shop. When she saw the medicine, she felt something was wrong, so she turned out something and put blood dried grass in it. If it lasts for a long time,It will definitely cause people to become thin and wither.Xiao Tao panicked, and Grandma Chang suggested that Gu Tingye come to investigate. However, Sheng Minglan was afraid that the Queen Mother and others would be given more trouble, so she insisted on doing the investigation herself. She asked Grandma Chang to investigate quietly, and then she took it with her.Xiaotao went back to Sheng's house to stay for a few days, giving them an opportunity to exploit.
There were people at the Yushitai watching over Gu Tingye's occupation of the Bai family's property, and there were even people watching over Gu Tingye's murder of his son. That person was waiting outside the palace.Sheng Minglan returned to live with the Sheng family, and Mrs. Sheng was very happy. However, Sheng Changbai was locked up in the house by Sheng Hong and had not been in court for more than half a month. Sheng Minglan also said that she wanted to see Sheng Changbai's jokes.Bai Dalang and Zhu Manniang went to the palace together. One of them knelt down as soon as they entered, while the other grabbed Gu Tingye's neck and made a fuss.Zhu Manniang claimed that Gu Tingye killed her brother and forced her into the house, and also forced her to give birth to two children.Later, Gu Tingye kidnapped his daughter and wanted to drive Zhu Manniang away. When Zhu Manniang refused, Gu Tingye killed her son alive, another example of confusing right and wrong.Zhu Manniang was very heartbroken, and Xiao Qin even directly mentioned that Gu Tingye was so angry that Gu Yankai died.
