Chapter 2210: scapegoat
Chapter 2210 For the dead ghost
"Cousin, please. We are all ancestors. If our ancestors had spirits in the sky and knew that you let Murong Cheng go, I would definitely be grateful to you."
"Ancestor? If the ancestors knew that Murong Cheng was going to kill me, the descendant of the glorious lintel, I am afraid that he would want Murong Cheng to die more than I do."
"Cousin, how about this, as long as you are willing to let Murong Cheng go, I am willing to give you half of my family's fortune, how about that?"
"Do you think I'm short of money? Do I care about your money?"
Murong Qian continued to plead: "Cousin..."
"Okay." The Marquis of Ning An interrupted what his cousin was about to say and said loudly, "Housekeeper, see off the guest!"
The housekeeper immediately came to Murong Qian's side.
Murong Qian had no choice but to leave unwillingly.
After getting into the carriage, his eldest son, Murong Xiong, asked, "Father, how is it? Has the cousin promised to forgive the second brother?"
Murong Qian sighed and shook his head, "No."
"Cousin didn't forgive the second brother, would he think that the second brother did this?"
"Very likely."
"Then what should we do now?"
Murong Qian shook his head: "I don't know either."
"Why don't we go and ask Murong Zhe, I have already inquired about it, Murong Zhe has a good temper, and is very kind and righteous, and the cousin who cares most about him is him. Will definitely agree."
Murong Qian said: "I think it's useless. Murong Cheng is a suspect who wants to kill his father, and Murong Bo almost wronged Murong Zhe that day, he is not a soft bun, others want to kill him again and again, he It's impossible to help, and now I'm afraid he also believes that Murong Cheng wants to harm his father, how could he go against his own father for the father of someone who wants to harm him?"
Murong Xiong said: "Then we really have nothing to do?"
Murong Qian said: "Go back and think of a way, I'm a little tired and need to rest."
If there is really no way, he will be the only one to manage the people in the mines so that his son can live a little better.
Murong Xiong's eyes flashed and he said, "Okay."
Father had better never think of a way, he had better let Murong Cheng stay in the mine for a lifetime!
After seeing the guest back, the housekeeper saw that Hou Ye was lost in thought, he stepped forward and said, "Master Hou, do you really believe that Murong Cheng poisoned you?"
The Marquis of Ning An immediately came back to his senses and said, "You don't think it's him either?"
"Also? It turns out that the Marquis thinks so too." Fang Guanjia said, "Xiaoshanzi said that it was too straightforward when Murong Cheng instructed him. According to the Marquis, he said it without any hesitation."
"It stands to reason that if Murong Cheng really wanted to kill Marquis, in order to prevent Xiaoshanzi from confessing to him, he would definitely use Xiaoshanzi's family to threaten him."
"Even if Murong Cheng is arrested, Murong Cheng and his father and son can still pose a threat to his family. It is impossible for him to confess the mastermind."
The Marquis of Ning An said, "What do you mean, he is afraid that His Majesty will implicate his family, and he casually said that a ghost came out for the dead, just to cover the people behind?"
"Yes."
The Marquis of Ning'an said: "I think so too. Although Murong Cheng has always coveted my title, I know that he is not so bold. He is not stupid. Now those clansmen are watching each other very closely, I hope They make mistakes to lose my trust and then they can take out a competitor."
