Chapter 429: Revealing the Background
Chapter 429: Revealing the Background
Ji Qingqing did not say this out loud. She raised the sword in her hand and stabbed it towards Chen Huaxiu's chest.
The next second, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed Ji Qingqing's hand.
Wu Shijie snatched the sword from Ji Qingqing's hand and said angrily: "Second sister, how can you be so cruel? They are your parents. Are you going to kill them just because of what this woman said?"
Ji Qingqing: "..."
Ji Qingqing: "!!!"
She took two steps back as if she had seen a ghost, staring at him in panic, "Why are you here?"
She remembered that she had clearly given Wu Shijie a mute drug, so he should not be able to speak.
But now, what is going on?
Wu Shijie clenched his fist and said, "If I wasn't here, would you kill our parents with your own hands?"
"It's fine if you don't want to recognize us, and we can tolerate having us serve in the Marquis' Mansion, but now this woman is seducing Dad without knowing how to live or die. It's fine if you don't seek justice for our mother, but how can you bear to kill them?"
Ji Qingqing was almost going crazy. Seeing that things were getting more and more out of her control, her face turned ferocious and she just roared out loud.
"Shut up, she is not my mother. My mother is the wife of the Marquis. Why should she, a country girl from the countryside, be my mother?"
"She is Ji Yuntang's mother, why can't I kill her?!"
When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked.
Many people reacted at this time. They had heard a few days ago that a family came to the Yongning Marquis' Mansion and said they were coming to the capital to visit relatives.
Could it be that they are the ones being talked about?
Wu Shijie didn't expect Ji Qingqing to say that. He said with disappointment, "It's already come to this point, and you're still deceiving yourself."
"Back then, the Marquis of Yongning and his wife disliked their daughter's ugliness, so they came to our village, gave us a sum of money, and exchanged his daughter with the daughter of our Wu family!"
"Ji Yuntang is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, and your original name is Wu Yue. You are the second daughter born to your parents, and you are my biological sister."
"Some time ago, you sent someone to our house again, saying that you had found a good marriage for Ji Yuntang and wanted to take her away. My parents agreed!"
"I didn't expect that you wanted her to marry for you. Now you are the Crown Princess, but you don't recognize us, your blood relatives. We came all the way to see you, but you want to kill us."
"Everyone, please help us judge. The people from the Marquis' Mansion kidnapped my sister, and then their wife hooked up with my father. Now she is instigating my sister to kill my parents. How can there be such a shameless person in the world?"
"Although we were born in the village, we have lived an honest life over the years and have never done anything harmful to the world. They are leaving us no way to survive and want to force our entire family to death!"
Everyone: "..."
Everyone: "!!!"
The amount of information here is so huge that they felt like their brains were shutting down for a moment!
Ji Yuntang was the legitimate daughter of the Yongning Marquisate, but was replaced by her cruel parents because she was born ugly?
And Ji Qingqing is just a wild girl from the countryside and has no blood relationship with the Yongning Marquisate?
So all these years, Ji Qingqing has been enjoying the life that belongs to Ji Yuntang?
And Ji Yuntang suffered in the countryside instead of Ji Qingqing?
Not only that, she was taken back by the people in the Marquis' Mansion and forced to go to the Night King's Mansion to help Ji Qingqing get married?
It was said to be a substitute marriage, but in fact it was a burial sacrifice, because almost everyone in the capital knew what the Night King's situation was at that time.
At this time, a lady who was dissatisfied with the situation spoke up to speak up for Ji Yuntang!
"So this is why when good things happen, she doesn't think of her own daughter, but when bad things happen, she is blamed for it!"
"Is it that only Miss Ji's life is life, and Princess Ye's life is not life?"
"No wonder Princess Ye was in such a bad situation back then. She even wanted to break off relations with the people from Yongning Marquis' Mansion. If I were her, I would do the same. I have never seen such cruel parents."
Ji Qingqing's eyes were red and tears were streaming down her face. She explained in a trembling voice: "No... No, it's not like that. Don't listen to his nonsense. I am the legitimate daughter of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion."
Luo Jingshen's face was extremely ugly, and a feeling of being fooled arose in his mind.
If he was just angry last night, now he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
Just then, a child suddenly rushed out from the backyard with a bloody knife in his hand.
He ran to Chen Huaxiu and said the most vicious words in a childish crying voice.
"Dad, Mom, that money-loser hurt my hand. I'm going to the Night Palace to kill her."
Chen Huaxiu pulled up Wu Chaoyang's sleeve and saw that there were several holes on his snow-white arm where the flesh had corroded. The skin was rotten and had spread to his elbow, with pus and blood still oozing out of it.
She hurriedly asked: "Yang Ge'er, what's going on? What's wrong with your hand?"
Wu Chaoyang said viciously: "It was that money-loser. She asked me to test the medicine on her. I wanted to make my second sister happy, so I splashed the medicine on her face and disfigured her."
"I didn't expect that the money-loser would suddenly take out an umbrella and block all the medicine, so that the disgusting stuff dripped onto my hand, and then my hand became like this!"
"Mom, my hands hurt so much, I'm going to kill her."
The wound on Wu Chaoyang's hand was not visible yesterday, but it was all exposed today, and the corrosion rate was very fast. In just one morning, half of his arm was rotten!
Everyone just thought that this kid was a little scary. At such a young age, he made killing people sound so easy. They couldn't help but look at Wu Chaoyang with some scrutiny.
At this moment, a maid ran over in a panic, shouting, "My Lord, Madam, it's bad, Master Meng has been killed!"
Meng's face changed drastically. She no longer cared about anything else and rushed over and grabbed the maid's collar.
"What did you say? My brother is dead?"
The teacher of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion was none other than Meng Chao, Meng's younger brother. Because he had failed the imperial examinations many times before, the Meng family was not strong enough to buy him an official position.
Meng then suggested that he come to the Marquis's Mansion to be an idle teacher and substitute for the class.
Firstly, there are many children in the Ji family's side branches, and he can get closer to the people of the Ji family.
Secondly, I can protect him and provide him with a stable income.
This was supposed to be a win-win situation, but unexpectedly Meng Chao was killed in the Marquis' Mansion?
Meng thought of how Wu Chaoyang had just run out with a bloody knife in his hand. She loosened the maid's collar and rushed to Wu Chaoyang.
"Is it you? Is it you who killed my brother?"
