Take back your luck! Kill your crazy enemy and remarry the scumbag uncle

Chapter 284: Live the rest of your life happily

Ouyang Ming just felt a headache, and his trigeminal nerve began to throb with pain.

What a joke, Bai Qian was the Minister of Rites after all, and he was not directly involved in the murder of Xiao Ning. If we were to talk about his crime, at most he had a mistress, how could he be sentenced to death by slicing?

How many men in this world have not said those casual words that the man said to his concubine? If these were used as evidence to convict Bai Qian, Bai Qian would definitely call him a tyrant.

The most important thing is that there are so many officials in the capital who keep mistresses. If he makes such a judgment today, those officials will definitely make quite a commotion in the court tomorrow, shaking the court and causing endless trouble!

Isn't Xiao Minglou deliberately making things difficult for him?

No, Xiao Minglou was deliberately making things difficult for him!

At this time, Xiao Mingcheng also spoke up: "Minglou, please don't embarrass the emperor. Bai Qian is the Minister of Rites of Dongqin, and he didn't directly participate in the murder of my aunt. How can the emperor sentence him to death by slicing?"

When Ouyang Ming heard this, he immediately felt relieved.

Although Xiao Mingcheng was born in the Xiao family, he is not as reckless and barbaric as Xiao Minglou. He has the gentlemanly demeanor of a noble family in the capital, and is generous, kind, and sensible.

Unfortunately... Ouyang Ming relaxed his breath too early, because Xiao Mingcheng said, "Your Majesty, please sentence Minister Bai to be beheaded in public!"

Ouyang Ming: “…”

Well, every member of the Xiao family is a living devil who must kill people!

"This matter is against the etiquette and laws of Eastern Qin, I..."

Ouyang Ming still planned to refuse, because after all, this matter could not be judged in this way!

Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, Bai Wei spoke up: "Your Majesty, although Aning was not killed by Bai Qian himself, he was treacherous and went back on his word. It is unfortunate for Dongqin to have such an official..."

After hearing this, Ouyang Ming felt even worse.

Why? He thought that he could refute what Xiao Minglou and Xiao Mingcheng said, and he could also pressure them in the name of the emperor, but if Xiao Ning also asked him to kill Bai Qian, what should he do?

Taking action is against the law.

If he doesn't take action, and she lingers around, will it be harmful to him?

When I am troubled by this, I feel chest tightness.

When you are worried about something, you can't help but frown.

But just like the feeling of relief just now, it was too early to relax, and now he was worrying too early.

Bai Wei continued, "I also ask His Majesty to demote Minister Bai by three levels and fine him one year's salary as a warning to others!"

As soon as these words came out, Ouyang Ming's eyes widened: "That's all."

He originally thought that compared to the indignant Xiao Minglou and Xiao Mingyu, Xiao Ning was the one who hated Bai Qian the most. If she was given the chance, wouldn't she want to cut Bai Qian into pieces?

But she never thought that all she wanted was to be demoted to her previous official position and fined one year's salary.

How big of a problem is this?

After all, although many officials in the capital secretly kept mistresses, the laws of Dongqin did not allow it. Although being demoted three levels was a bit excessive, Bai Qian married the daughter of the King of Zhennan after all, and he also caused such a thing that indirectly killed Xiao Ning, so naturally he should be punished more severely than others.

It seems that Xiao Ning still has feelings for Bai Qian, so... he is reluctant to take her life.

Bai Wei was still kneeling on the ground, her expression indifferent: "That's all."

She was not stupid and knew that Ouyang Ming would never really sentence Bai Qian severely for this matter, because Bai Qian did not participate in Li's plan.

That's why she said that.

She said this for two reasons.

First, Bai Qian married Xiao Ning not because of love, but because he was attracted by the Zhennan Palace behind Xiao Ning, and wanted to use the Zhennan Palace behind Xiao Ning to rise straight up, so that his official career would be smooth. Now, she asked the emperor to decree and directly demote him by three levels. It is estimated that in his heart, it is more painful than cutting his flesh.

Secondly, even if the emperor could not stand the pressure from the Xiao family and really ordered Bai Qian to be killed, he would not treat Li like he did. He would definitely die in a less painful way, which would be too easy for him. If Li's killing was the result, then Bai Qian's betrayal was the cause. The cycle of cause and effect makes it impossible for his cause to be worse than Li's result.

After today's Taiping Banquet, when the imperial edict that demoted him three levels arrives at the Shangshu Mansion, her "great gift" will also come along with it, and it is guaranteed that he will live a "happy and joyful" life for the rest of his life!

Because Bai Wei's request was both reasonable and appropriate, Ouyang Ming promised generously: "Okay, I agree to it!"

Bai Wei bowed again: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Ouyang Ming said, "Alright, Aning, stand up."

However, before he could finish his words, Bai Wei in front of him rolled her eyes and her whole body began to twitch.

Ouyang Ming was frightened and quickly took a step back.

The next second, Bai Wei stopped struggling and lowered her head heavily.

"A Ning, are you... okay?"

As she lowered her head, Ouyang Ming subconsciously wanted to go forward to check the situation. However, he just watched helplessly as a figure of light flashed directly onto Bai Wei's body. The situation was as if the soul had left the body, and he immediately withdrew his hand in fear.

The next second, the figure that had flashed flew up into the sky and floated in the air, just as they had seen it at first. However, the terrifying face had changed.

The weeping eyes had disappeared, and Xiao Ning had returned to her old appearance. At this moment, she was wearing her favorite red dress again, smiling at everyone.

"Is this Xiao Ning?"

"As expected of the most beautiful woman in the capital, she is indeed very beautiful!"

"Is Minister Bai blind? He doesn't like the most beautiful woman in the capital, but actually likes a vicious woman like Li!"

"Great! The beauty has finally gotten her revenge and is as beautiful as before!"

"Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. Karma goes round and round. This is the best ending!"

"You are right, but in this matter, our emperor still needs to uphold justice for Xiao Ning and severely punish those who harmed her. Only then can her resentment be completely gone and she can return to her former gentle and beautiful appearance and be reincarnated as a human being in this life!"

"You said it very well. It's all thanks to our emperor's wisdom!"

"Your Majesty!"

A bunch of people who were flattering Ouyang Ming appeared at the scene again. Compared with these people, all the attention of the Xiao family was on "Xiao Ning" who was floating in the sky and had returned to his original appearance.

Xiao Ling looked at Xiao Ning's smiling face in the sky, tears welled up in his eyes again: "Ning Ning!"

He never thought that he would be able to see his daughter's smiling face again.

He was feeling heartbroken and excited at the moment, and he couldn't bear to blink at all, because he was afraid that if he blinked, Ningning's figure would disappear before his eyes.

Xiao Minglou also said excitedly: "Aunt!"

He also had regrets and remorse. He couldn't help but think back to the time when he thought if he had told his aunt about Bai Qian and Li's affair earlier, his aunt would not have died.

If he were stronger, would she be able to protect her aunt and Wei'er?

Finally, Xiao Ning's figure in the sky waved goodbye to everyone, turned into a point of light, and disappeared.

Xiao Ling was reluctant but had no choice, tears fell again.

At least, Ningning identified the murderer.

Xiao Ling bowed deeply to Ouyang Ming and said loudly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

At this loud shout, Bai Wei's body swayed slightly.

Xiao Ling knelt beside her. Seeing this, he immediately supported his granddaughter and said, "Wei'er, how are you?"

The scene just now made him shudder with fear.

To be honest, she was worried about her, but when she thought about it, Ningning was Wei'er's biological daughter after all, and she shouldn't harm her.

Bai Wei frowned, rubbed her eyes and said, "Grandfather, what happened just now? I remember that I kowtowed three times and asked my mother to avenge me, and then I heard my mother ask me to cooperate with her. I agreed at that time. Then I lost consciousness. Did my mother avenge herself?"

Life is like this, it all depends on acting.

In today's scene, she felt that she had too many parts and it was quite tiring to act.
