Chapter 387 I Will Take Revenge
When Mu Heng heard the words "Grand Master Mu", he shook his head and said, "He probably doesn't have the courage, nor the motive."
"Motive?" Jiang Yue didn't want to make a random guess.
Knowing that someone was trying to harm her, and that the enemy was in the dark while she was in the light, it was really not a good feeling.
"Third brother-in-law, do you know Mu Yun?"
Jiang Yue had no intention of prying into other people's privacy, she just wanted to find clues.
Lin Guo knew the relationship between Mu Heng and Mu Yun, but Wu Fei and Xue Wen looked at Mu Heng with curiosity.
Mu Heng thought back to his childhood, the past events were still vivid in his mind despite the passage of time.
"He seems kind, but in fact, he is cruel and ruthless."
Jiang Yue didn't know much about Mu Yun, but she also realized that this person was very scheming.
Lin Guo didn't know the reason, but he knew that Mu Heng's uncle must not be a good person, otherwise, why would Mu Heng come to his house without entering.
He guessed: "Mu Heng, your uncle took your property, right?"
Wu Fei and Xue Wen looked at each other, and then looked at Mu Heng at the same time.
"More than just family property." Mu Heng was silent for a while. Because Jiang Yue suspected Mu Yun, he also wanted to help with the investigation.
"My father was killed by him."
"When I was young, I saw him put poison into my father's wine cup. One of the reasons was that my father was favored by my grandfather."
"Fortunately, I discovered it in time and he failed to succeed."
Mu Heng clenched his fists, his eyes filled with grief and anger.
The three of them turned pale, but tacitly did not ask any questions.
After hearing this, Jiang Yue asked in a low voice,
"Does it mean that I have to harm someone's life just because I favor him?"
This person's heart is too dark.
Knowing that Mu Heng was hesitant, she said slowly: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."
She had no intention of forcing Mu Heng, nor did she want him to be trapped in the past.
"There's still work to do at the grain store, General. We'll go out first." Lin Guo pulled Xue Wen and Wu Fei away, leaving the space for Mu Heng and Jiang Yue.
On the way out, Wu Fei looked back with his head raised, and was finally slapped on the head by Xue Wen.
Wu Fei turned around and glanced at Xue Wen unhappily. He couldn't help but feel sorry for Mu Heng.
"I never thought that Grand Master Mu would be such a person!"
Lin Guo and Mu Heng have been together for a long time, and although they cannot empathize with each other, they are also full of resentment.
He thought about his own experience and said, "Fortunately, we are all alive and well."
After the three of them left, Jiang Yue and Mu Heng fell into a brief stalemate.
Mu Heng recalled the unbearable past, was silent for a long time, and finally said:
"My father was once a third-rank official in the Ministry of Revenue."
"I was still young at the time, and I didn't know why Mu Yun exposed my father for falsifying accounts and slandering him for embezzling military funds. I also don't know where he got the evidence. Although my grandfather loved my father, he fell ill when the evidence was irrefutable."
"My mother is the daughter of the old Prince Chen, and she was a princess. At that time, she begged the late emperor hard, and only then did my father escape death and was exiled to the remote Liangzhou, where he became the local governor."
"But now things have changed. Grandfather and old King Chen are no longer alive."
Jiang Yue only heard the result, and only today did she find out that Mu Heng actually had such a shameful past hidden in his heart.
As the past scene was recounted today, Mu Heng's heart felt a little more open.
"General, I know you suspect Mu Yun, but he has no reason to do this. You don't have to get yourself involved in my affairs."
He knew that it had been decades since the injustice was committed and the previous clues had long been lost, so it would be difficult to overturn the case.
"If your father is really wronged, don't say that you don't want revenge. Third brother-in-law, please relax. If what you said is true, I will definitely seek justice for you." Jiang Yue knew that Mu Heng didn't want to implicate herself, but she knew what she was doing.
When Mu Heng talked about revenge, the blood in his body froze.
He knew that he felt guilty towards his parents and hated himself even more for his past incompetence.
"I will take revenge."
"If you want revenge, you must find evidence."
"evidence……"
"The files, didn't they frame your father for embezzling military pay? If they were forged, we would definitely be able to find some clues." Jiang Yue thought of another thing.
"The Minister of Revenue at that time was Lord Cui?"
Mu Heng said: "The Minister of Revenue at that time was Zeng Guangren."
"General Zeng?" After hearing this, Jiang Yue's confused brain seemed to have some clues, but it was still not very clear.
"What about him? Does he have a motive for committing the crime?"
In fact, all the ministers in the court were suspected by her, and some of them were just trying to curry favor with the powerful.
"Him?" Mu Heng fell into deep thought again.
"My father has no grudge against him, why would he want to frame my father?"
Jiang Yue couldn't figure out the reason for a while, so things had to be solved bit by bit.
"No matter who he is, the fox will eventually reveal its tail."
She found that her occupational disease had come back and she thought there was something wrong with everyone she looked at.
She thought of something else.
"Miss Zeng invited me to attend her birthday party tomorrow. The four of you will accompany her then."
"Birthday party?" Mu Heng's eyes were full of surprise.
"Although Miss Zeng seems to be generous and generous, she is also very good at dealing with people. I think it is General Zeng who wants to make friends with you."
Jiang Yue had thought of this a long time ago.
But General Zeng usually doesn't make friends with others and always has a stern expression on his face. So why would he make friends with her?
Unless he has other purposes.
After thinking it over, Jiang Yue was overwhelmed with thoughts and finally went to the Ministry of Justice prison.
Apart from anything else, this Zhao Chongzheng seems to know a lot of things.
This time, when Zhao Chongzheng saw her, he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.
"Young General, has the issue of Dajin been resolved?"
Jiang Yue said bluntly: "As you think."
If Miss Zeng is to be good at dealing with people, she feels that this seemingly dandy Fourth Prince is the one who is good at dealing with people.
Zhao Chong was laughing to himself, seemingly forgetting his current situation.
"Let me guess, you came here to tell me that Miss Zeng's birthday party is coming soon, and you are going to attend it tomorrow, right?"
After hearing this, Jiang Yue felt as if she was being led by the nose by the Fourth Prince.
"Fourth Prince, why don't you ask me what the result is?"
Zhao Chongzheng shook his head, his face looking more calm, but he could not hide his sadness.
"It's just that you have feelings for me, but I don't."
This was not the first time Jiang Yue discovered that the Fourth Prince was intelligent.
"Is the Fourth Prince's admiration for Miss Zeng genuine?"
"God can bear witness to my love for her!" Zhao Chongzheng couldn't help but sneer.
It's a pity that all his feelings were wasted.
"If you have something to say, Your Highness, just say it directly. Why beat around the bush?" Jiang Yue had no scruples about what she said because she was being led by the nose by the Fourth Prince.
She admired the fact that the Fourth Prince could clearly distinguish between friends and enemies, and did not have any concerns just because he loved others.
After hearing this, Zhao Chongzheng raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yue, wanting to see through her at a glance but he couldn't. Unfortunately, the young general saw through him first.
