When Shi Anxia saw Bei Hui had just brewed some tea, she took it casually, holding the teacup in one hand and fiddling with the floating leaves with the other hand. "Don't panic. Whether this is true or not, and whether anyone has been killed, the government will know once they investigate."

When walking the law ceremony, Yunqi said: "The Northern Wing Law states that if a slave or concubine commits a serious offense, the master must report it to the government and only kill them after approval. This is called "killing by public notice." If someone executes someone privately and takes a person's life lightly without reporting it to the government for filing, the lighter punishment is fifty canings, and the heavier punishment is exile or death penalty in addition to caning."

Yang knew that it was all over, and panicked, "I didn't, I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone!"

"Why are you panicking if you didn't kill anyone?" Shi Anxia glanced down at her, "Don't worry, as long as you didn't do it, this princess will not wrongly accuse you. But if you did, and if the Jiangcheng government office is limited in its capabilities, this princess will mobilize the East Feather Guard to personally try the case."

Yang was a woman from the harem, so how could she bear such a shock? She didn't know what the Dongyu Guard was, but it sounded scary, and she couldn't help but tremble with fear, "Yes, it was her, she accidentally fell into the well..."

Shi Anxia took a sip of tea and said, "You can't argue with me. All the evidence speaks for itself. I won't wrong you, nor will I let you go."

As the words "I won't leave you out" came out, Yang suddenly fainted on the field.

Ming Siling actually understood most of it in his heart, but looking at the mother who had raised him for twenty years, he couldn't help but shout, "Mom, mother..."

Moreover, he had his own calculations. His biological mother was a concubine, so it didn't matter if she died. If he blamed his mother and became estranged from her, he might not be able to keep his status as the eldest son.

Thinking of this, he hated Princess Haiyan for meddling in other people's business. Exposing such a thing so blatantly would do him no good at all.

As he thought about this, a sinister and hateful light flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Shi Anxia and said, "This is my only mother! Princess, please don't meddle in other people's business!"

Shi Anxia smiled coolly, "What a loving mother and filial son! It's a pity that your deceased aunt carried you for ten months and gave birth to this evil creature."

Ming Siling's face turned pale and blue.

At this time, the side branches on the field were already in disarray.

Ming Chengyi's second grandson Ming Tianyang and third grandson Ming Tianqing suddenly started fighting, and the field was filled with women's crying and men's cursing.

Ming Chengyi's eyelids twitched violently, "Stop it, this is disgraceful!"

But no one paid attention to his shouting, but the page recording the grievances between the two was eventually passed to Ming Chengyi: Ming Tianyang had an affair with Ming Tianqing's concubine Song, and the son born to Song, Ming Siying, was actually Ming Tianyang's son.

This cuckold has come into my house, how can I not take action?

Ming Chengyi felt stars in his eyes. Others did not know the truth of this matter, but he knew it clearly.

After all, the great-grandson is still his biological great-grandson. As for whether the great-grandson's father is the second or third grandson, for him, he has lived to this age and doesn't care so much.

But it was still too ugly to be exposed in public. Ming Chengyi's gaze towards Princess Haiyan was like a poisoned arrow.

Shi Anxia just nodded slightly at him and smiled, still leisurely smelling the fragrance of tea and sipping the tea.

The more I eat, the hungrier I get...but the chaos on the field goes far beyond this.

Ming Chengyi didn't know yet that even more heartbreaking things were yet to come.

Someone screamed, the voice full of gloating excitement, "Rufei, this paper says you are pregnant?"

It was like a thunderclap that tore everyone apart. The person who spoke was Mao, the granddaughter-in-law of Ming Chengyi's family.

What she held in her hand was the part about Ming Rufei.

Logically speaking, Ming Rufei is Mao's niece and their relationship is closer than with others, so this kind of thing should be kept secret.

But Ming Ruqin, the girl born to Mao earlier, was often ridiculed by Ming Rufei and her mother Qi because she did not marry decently.

Now that there is a chance to get some interest back, how could Mao be willing to let it go?

The page was quickly passed from one person to another due to Mao's propaganda, and everyone looked at Ming Rufei with a dim look in their eyes.

Just now Ming Rufei kept saying that the second son of the Lin family would come to propose marriage this month. So this is a done deal?

Ming Rufei had never seen such a scene before. She felt embarrassed and anxious, and couldn't help but cry.

Mao had completely forgotten that this was Princess Haiyan's trick. She was so happy that she looked so aggressive. "Our Fifth Miss can't just cry. Is it true? Speak up! How could you do such a shameful thing? I remember that you said that our Third Miss..."

Ming Rufei was an unmarried girl after all, so she could not stand the interrogation of her second aunt Mao. In panic, she covered her face with a handkerchief and rushed to Ming Zhao, crying pitifully, "Why did you hurt me! We are sisters, how have I ever done anything wrong to you that you have to humiliate me like this!"

The implication is that once you have seen this page, you should have put it away immediately. Why expose it to the public and embarrass her?

Ming Zhao felt extremely disgusted when he saw the little girl's tearful face.

This girl has been speaking ambiguously since she was young. She is good at pretending to be a scoundrel and is an expert at scamming people.

Just now she hinted that it was because of her kidnapping case that the second son of the Lin family had delayed proposing marriage. Now she is crying and accusing him again. How shameless!

Ming Zhao responded calmly, "It wasn't me who arranged for Second Master Lin to be defeated, and it wasn't me who made you lose your temper."

Qi was so eager to protect her daughter that she had long forgotten that she had just brought up the tutoring issue, and even forgot to slap herself on the face and say, "I'm ashamed for you."

We get very excited when talking about others, but when it happens to ourselves, we can hardly bear to show any shame.

She was inexplicably frightened when she saw Ming Zhao and Princess Haiyan's identically indifferent faces, so she had to turn to Ming Chengyi for help, "Grandfather, Ming Zhao has ruined his own reputation, and he wants to throw the dirty water on my daughter. Please, father, help Fei'er. Fei'er is still unmarried, and she has always been well-behaved. How could she do something that would bring disgrace to the family?"

Ming Rufei's father Ming Tianqing, who was furious just now, said, "What is written on paper may not be true. How can we allow others to confuse right with wrong?"

Ming Chengyi nodded. People need to have dignity, and trees need to have bark. Their family was relying on him to make decisions, so now he had to act like an elder.

Ming Chengzhong and Ming Chengfu were also furious. They flipped through the pages that the younger generations had sent them one after another, and the more they looked at them, the more frightened and upset they became.

The three of them looked at each other and stood up almost at the same time to attack the main branch.

But before anyone could speak, Princess Haiyan put down her teacup and glanced at Bei Hui.

Bei Hui understood and handed the three pages of paper in her sleeve to the three people respectively.

After the three of them looked at it, their expressions changed.

What is recorded here are all the shameful and private affairs of these old guys.

The three of them looked at Princess Haiyan in horror at the same time, their grief and indignation all turned into one sentence, "What on earth does the princess want!"
