Ghost One Hand was a famous appraiser and counterfeit master in Chang 'an.
In Chang 'an, he was the only one who could imitate a stranger's handwriting to such an extent. Therefore, when Li Yi arrived at Chang 'an's government office, he immediately sent people to look for this fellow.
Sure enough, when the Wu brothers saw Ghost One Hand being escorted over by the Cheng Residence's armored soldiers, their fat bodies were already limp on the ground, drenched in sweat.
Li Yi picked up the bailiff's fire stick and walked to Ghost Hand's side. He had the Cheng Residence's armorers press down on his hands."Ghost One Hand, I know you have professional ethics and won't reveal your employer's information, so I'm too lazy to ask. I'll help you cripple these hands now so that you won't harm others again.”
Ghost One didn't expect that this famous playboy of Chang 'an would be so cruel. He didn't say anything and wanted to cripple his hands. He couldn't help but shout,""Little Duke, little Duke, don't do that. I, Ghost Hand, rely on my hands to make a living. If you cripple it, how am I going to support my mother and my wife? Didn't you want my statement? I'll talk, I'll talk, alright?"
Of course, One-Hands Ghost was not a loyal person. With Li Yi's threat, he immediately revealed everything that had happened.
Just as everyone expected, the Wu brothers forged Wu Meiniang's father's will in an attempt to seize the Chang 'an family property left by Wu Father.
Although the truth of the whole case was revealed, because it was a family matter and the Wu brothers were officials of the imperial court, even the Chang 'an magistrate could not punish them. He could only order the brothers to return the property as soon as possible.
The Wu brothers were old foxes from officialdom. They knew that although Chang 'an Prefecture could not punish them, the Duke of Wei and Duke of Lu could.
As long as this case was reported to the Imperial Censorate, Wei Zheng's impeachment memorial would reach the heavens tomorrow. If the devil king continued to add fuel to the fire, then the control of the Wu brothers would be removed.
Thinking of this, the Wu brothers looked at each other and gave each other a look. Then, with tears and snot, they knelt at Wu Meiniang's feet."Mei Niang, the two of us are muddle-headed. Please forgive the two of us on account that we are a family."”
Cheng Yaojin wanted to reprimand these two bastards, but because this was a matter of the Wu Clan, he didn't open his mouth.
The two elders, who were once high and mighty, were now crying and begging, causing Wu Meiniang to feel a trace of pity in her heart. In any case, this was an internal matter of the family. Although their behavior was very shameful, if she insisted on punishing them, she would be criticized for being unfilial in Chang 'an.
Moreover, with the connections of the Wu brothers, the government might not punish them on the grounds that this was a family matter.
If he continued to delve deeper into the Wu brothers 'words, even if Wu Meiniang had a reasonable explanation for this matter, it was still difficult for her to escape the fate of being scolded.
Li Yi knew that the girl before him had softened. He sighed and turned to the Wu brothers helplessly."Wu brothers, why don't you two scram back and pack your dirty things and move out of the Martial Palace's courtyard?”
"Yes, yes." The two Wu brothers scrambled away in a hurry.
From the viciousness in their eyes when they left, Li Yi knew that they were probably letting the tiger return to the mountain. These shameless brothers, even if they moved out of the Martial Palace now, they still had a hundred ways to make it impossible for Wu Meiniang and her daughter to live in Chang 'an.
Wu Meiniang, who had a pure heart, could see this point. However, she was a weak woman and was really helpless to deal with her uncle, who had endless methods."Young Master Li, I…I want to sell the property of the Martial Palace and bring my mother back to my hometown.”
"Miss Wu, do you think that your heartless uncle will let you off like this? I'm sure that you'll encounter the so-called 'Mountain Bandits' before you return to your hometown with your huge fortune.”Li Yi shook his head and analyzed.
" Then…" Wu Meiniang's charming face was like a flower in a storm.
"If you don't mind, follow me in the future. At the very least, he wouldn't allow others to bully him.”Li Yi said what he wanted to say.
Wu Meiniang's beautiful face flashed with a hint of red, and then she curtsied,""Mei Niang and mother's lives were saved by Young Master, so it's only right that I repay you. From now on, Mei Niang was willing to be a slave and serve Young Master for the rest of her life. If you break your oath, I hope the heavens will strike you with lightning."
…………
Chang 'an Prefecture Magistrate Wang Quan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but feel jealous.""This beast has good methods. Not only did he get a huge fortune, but he also got a beautiful woman.”
