When Mrs. Meng returned home and saw Meng Ye who was angry, she was quickly retrieved by her servants. She found that there was no fire at home. She just heard that Meng Si’s marriage had twists and turns, so she was very angry.

As soon as I saw Mrs. Meng, Meng scolded her head and said, "Look at the group of servants you taught, each of them is stupid and stupid. Isn't it just that a concubine's marriage has something wrong? Actually, I said earlier that merchants do not care about their faith and should not marry them, so you don't listen..."

After Meng also talked endlessly, Mrs. Meng said calmly: "Master, the servant did not explain clearly. It was not for Meng Si's marriage to find you, but something else was difficult, but even the servants in the family were unable to say about this matter."

"What the hell is it? Can you finish it all at once? A woman is a mother-in-law." Meng also looked impatient.

Mrs. Meng ignored him and ordered all the maids and mothers in the room to go out. She asked her mother Ping to guard the door and close the door and window. Then she whispered: "Master, the marriage has not come true because the Chu family has gone back on their word, but because your son has scared people away."

When Mengshen mentioned, Meng also turned dark and said, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you tell me that Mi Shi looked at Mengshen well? How could he give him the chance to talk nonsense?"

"This is Meng Si's own daughter. A good day for her daughter to hire her. She can't let her father not attend..." Mrs. Meng's voice became a little weak. She was a bit in the matter or a woman's kindness. According to Meng Ye's style of dealing with people, she would never give Meng Shen a chance to make trouble.

Meng also snorted coldly, expressing his disdain for Mrs. Meng's actions, and finally asked: "After talking for a long time, you haven't said what Meng Shen said, which scared the Chu family away."

"This... Mengshen said..." Mrs. Meng was really hard to speak, but she had to say it. She could only bite the bullet and said, "Mengshen said, Mengshen is the one who is in love with him... He also said you..."

"Nonsense." Meng was so angry that he jumped high, a little angry, "This rebellious son dared to say such words. Why didn't someone beat him to death on the spot? How dare he slander his father like this? Meng Si was only found after his family left Yancheng for many years? How could this Meng Si have something to do with me?"

"That's the case, but..." Mrs. Meng sighed, "We all know this kind of thing, but how can outsiders know that when the Chu family heard this, how dare they marry our family?"

"Have you warned the Chu family to stop talking?" Meng Ye thought of the first thing he wanted to eliminate the adverse effects, and immediately asked Mrs. Meng with a calm face.

"Master, I haven't finished speaking yet. Now the important thing is not the Chu family, but Meng Shen." Mrs. Meng took a step back to prevent Meng from angrily handing her to her vent her anger. Then she said the second half, "Meng Shen ran away while the chaos."

"What?" Meng's face changed completely, and the veins on his forehead swelled up. He yelled at Mrs. Meng, "You actually let him run away? How many times have you told you? You have to take good care of this rebellious son, why have you sent so many people to the village, and you can't even bear to see a single Mengshen? What are you doing?"

"Master, I really couldn't imagine it!" Mrs. Meng quickly explained. "I asked, there was an old servant in the village missing. It should be Meng Shen who helped them escape..."

"What's the point of saying this now?" Meng Shen said angrily, "The most urgent thing is to catch this rioter back and don't let him talk nonsense outside."

"Master, I have sent someone to find him." Mrs. Meng said, "But Yan City is so big, I don't know where to find him for a while. When Meng Shen runs like this, someone will definitely be able to answer him."

"Send people to guard the yamen. When you see Meng Shen, you will catch him immediately. Don't give him a chance to speak. If necessary..." Meng Ye didn't finish speaking, and only gestured.

Mrs. Meng sighed secretly again. She naturally knew what Meng Ye meant. But she had sworn that she would not use such a method, but now there is no other way. She couldn't let Meng Shen talk nonsense and implicate the reputation of the Meng family. To this point, this may be the only quick way.

As for those rumors and how the Chu family's mouths are sealed, they are relatively small things. As long as there is no real evidence, the rumors are just rumors after all. After a few days of circulating, everyone forgot that the people of Yancheng are very forgetful.

...

Just when the Meng family sent people to search for Mengshen,

The back yamen of the Yancheng Prefectural Office.

Zhu Ying looked at the corpse in front of him and his head was too big. He thought he was just a traitor from the street and had a grudge against whom. After getting drunk, someone was beaten up with a brick. There were all kinds of things, such as dragons and snakes in Yancheng. There were every day. As long as the dead were not a nobleman, who cares about so many things?

The honest and plain people will check it carefully. Those who fight and cause trouble all day long and harm neighbors will die less.

What category should Mengshen be classified into now?

If Meng Shen is not a scoundrel who causes trouble, it is not easy to deal with it as a scoundrel. However, it is difficult to solve the case seriously. After all, the Meng family is in full swing now, and if Meng Shen offended the most and hopes that he will die the most, he is probably the one who will be the one who will die.

But such cases are not something he, a small prefect, can handle. Meng Ye's official position is higher than him and has a prince and son-in-law, so he cannot investigate it carefully.

Those who have been generals will have some loyal people under their command. They will find someone to kill Meng Shen without knowing it. Where can I find evidence?

When Zhu Ying thought of this, he secretly complained that the Meng family was doing things really well. They just did it cleanly. They just found a place to dig a hole and buried Meng Shen. Even if the body was discovered in a few days, it would be decayed and could not be identified. It could be treated as a headless case, which was convenient for everyone.

As a result, the Meng family actually threw the person in the back alley not far from the inner yamen. It was difficult to think that he didn't know.

After complaining, we still need to resolve it.

Zhu Ying thought for a long time and finally decided to let someone inform the Meng family of the man.

He didn't say he recognized Meng Shen, but only said that the body was found in the yamen. He heard that some servants in the Meng family seemed to be lost, so let's see if they were servants in the Meng family.

Meng also received the news and immediately sent a clever manager to recognize the body.

The manager recognized that it was Meng Shen, but in front of Zhu Ying, he was a little vague and said that the man's face was a little swollen. He looked like a man in the mansion, but he was really uncertain and had to go back to the mansion to find his relatives, so he saved him and ran away.

After confirming that Meng Shen was dead, Meng also breathed a sigh of relief, and the problem arose. How should I reply to Zhu Ying?

He said he was his son and wanted Zhu Ying to solve the case. As the saying goes, pull out the radish and bring out the mud. If you really want to investigate, what should I do if I find out all the bastards that Mengshen said before? In the court, some things cannot be vague.

But if Zhu Ying recognizes it, it will be difficult to deal with it at that time.

Just when he was in a dilemma, Mrs. Meng came up with an idea and said that they were not killed by them anyway, so what if they admit it directly? Zhu Ying has always been cunning and knows how to inform the Meng family, which means that he actually recognized the body as Meng Shen. However, for some considerations, he didn't say it accurately.

If you can't tell the right attitude of this person, you can't talk nonsense and insist on denying that this person is not Mengshen. You are likely to fall into the trap of the other party.

When I think about it carefully, Meng Shen has no grudges with others in Yancheng. Who really wants to kill him? I am afraid that it is not against Meng Shen, but the entire Meng family.

If the Meng family denies that the man is Mengshen, there is no silver here, and someone will take the handle. Since that is the case, it is better to admit it openly. As for Zhu Ying to investigate afterwards, he will go with him.

The Meng family is not a small family without power. Can he ask the people in the backyard of the Meng family carefully?

What they have to do now is just to take care of the mouths of the servants of the Meng family and not let the servants reveal the scandals that Mengshen said before, at least not clearly.

As for whether Zhu Ying will investigate and what he will find, it is Zhu Ying's business.

The Meng family has no regrets about Meng Shen's death. Zhu Ying is a smart person. From the last time he handled Meng Shen's complaint, he is not the kind of person who is tempted by the incest, but he is not a stubborn person.

Since that's the case, let Zhu Ying get a headache. Mrs. Meng hopes that Zhu Yingzhen can find something out. After all, Meng Shen died inexplicably, and she still doesn't know who is plotting against the Meng family behind the scenes.

After thinking carefully, Meng also felt that Mrs. Meng was quite reasonable, and now she is the only one who can do this.

The problem was then thrown to Zhu Ying, who was responsible for investigating the case. I will not mention how Zhu Ying investigates it for now.

Since the Meng family admitted that it was Meng Shen who died, then holding a funeral was the first priority. After all, Meng and Meng Shen were not separated from the father-son relationship. Although they were not sad, they still had to do something on the surface.

However, Mrs. Meng soon discovered the first person to benefit from the incident.

Meng Xiaofu no longer needs to enter the palace, he can still hide in the Ding Palace.

The Ding Prince's Mansion submitted a memorial, saying that there was a funeral in the mansion and it was inconvenient to enter the palace.

Meng Shen is Meng Xiaofu's eldest brother, a half-sibling. His biological brother died. Although his sister did not have to wear mourning clothes, it was not easy to attend any banquet. It was even more inconvenient to enter the palace within the seventh day of Meng Shen's head, so as not to be unlucky to collide with the nobles.

This result made Mrs. Meng think about it again.

This is a coincidence. Meng Shen made a fuss. As he was about to affect Xiaofu's reputation, the bastards that Meng Shen said were spread. Meng Ye was the most affected. Next was Meng Xiaofu, who was the Princess Ding, and how many people would point fingers behind her.

But now that Meng Shen is dead, Xiao Fu has become a beneficiary, avoiding a possible danger and delaying it for a while. This kind of thing happens again and again, and it really makes people have to doubt something.

There is no evidence, doubt is just doubt after all.

Mrs. Meng couldn't help but tell Meng Ye these words, but Meng Ye scolded her, saying that she was looking for trouble all day long and knew that she was thinking about things.

What is Xiao Fu's identity and what is Meng Shen's identity? As for whether to kill Meng Shen in order to avoid entering the palace?

When Meng Ye spoke, he was a little rude and said that according to Mrs. Meng's previous random guess, Xiao Fu really wanted to treat people. The first person to deal with was Mrs. Meng. Death of a legitimate mother is more of an impact than a big brother.

Before, Mrs. Meng suspected that Meng Shen was instructed by someone to bewitch him, so she said those bastards, but she didn't think about how long it would take to make this matter in advance? Xiao Fu entered the palace only in recent days, and time was not enough. In addition, even if Meng Shen died, there was no need to let Meng Shen say those words that made the entire Meng family feel ashamed.

Speaking of this, Meng also ordered Mrs. Meng to have another thing.

First, no matter what method the servants in the village were used, they must shut up and not talk nonsense. How to do it depends on Mrs. Meng.

Second, the marriage with the Chu family must continue. Meng Shen died. After the first seventh period, Meng Si will get married. There is also a custom among the people. Some girls are older or for other reasons. They can get married within half a month after the first seventh period of their elders.

The first one is not required to be given, and Mrs. Meng will do the same, but there will be something on the next day.

That day, the Chu family ran so fast that they obviously didn't want to get this marriage again. Besides, after hearing the bastards Meng Shen said, could the Chu family have no opinions on Meng Si? How can they live a good life in the future by marrying Meng Si?

Meng Ye didn't care about these things. He said that the Chu family knew something. If they didn't get married, many things would be difficult to explain. Now they can only continue to marry Meng Si. In the future, some people heard the rumors and asked, and the Meng family and the Chu family could deny each other in unison.

As for Chu Jiale's unhappiness, what else can it be like a mere merchant family? Meng Si, who came to the house to ask for marriage, was not that easy to regret afterwards. In any case, this thing was to be done.

Meng also saw that Mrs. Meng seemed to feel unbearable and warned that this matter was related to the entire Meng family and it must be done.

Mrs. Meng thought about it, this was also a way to avoid risks, that was to complain about the girl Meng Si.

But now there is nothing to do. Besides, Meng Si was happy about this before. According to Meng Ye, she was all found by herself, so she can only blame her for being unlucky.

They are also concubines, some people have better luck than others, and their wishes come true. Once something is going to happen, they don’t have to do anything themselves, and it seems that they can turn danger into safety.

While Mrs. Meng felt sorry for Meng Si, she became inexplicably shocked again. One thing can be said to be coincidental, but how can we say so many coincidences together?
