The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength
Chapter 263 An unexpected gain
Coming out of the room, the three tiptoed towards the back wall.
"Wow, wow, wow..." Suddenly, a wailing sound came from a candle-lit room not far away, and it was particularly clear in the silent night.
The three of them stopped and looked at each other, then Xia Younan took the lead and quietly walked towards the room.
It was hot in the summer and the windows of the room were not closed tightly, allowing one to peek into the scene inside the room.
There was a beautiful woman crying in the room. She was about forty years old, with a face as white as a silver plate and round and smooth as jade. She was wearing silk and satin and adorned with gold, silver and jade, looking like a wife of an official.
At this moment, she was sitting at the head of the bed, crying her eyes out, her shoulders twitching constantly, her beautiful eyes were red and swollen, and tears kept falling down, almost completely soaking the handkerchief in her hand.
A man sat next to her, looking at her crying with a sad face.
His brows were tightly furrowed, and he kept sighing melancholy. It was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.
The man was Shangshu Tao Fengzheng, and the woman was his wife, the mother of his dead son.
"Hey, have you cried enough? Can't you just calm down for a while? I'm also very sad that my son died, but there's nothing we can do now!"
Tao Feng was comforting the woman with a sad face, and his eyes turned red when he mentioned his son.
The woman cried even harder and complained to him, "How dare you say that? It's all your fault. They say good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. It's because of your conscienceless and immoral deeds that your son is being punished."
Tao Feng was not happy to hear this and asked, "What do you mean by that? Why are you blaming me?"
"Why not blame you? You and Ye Baijiang colluded with each other to frame Su Boyuan, causing the entire Su family to be executed.
"At that time, a fortune teller told you that you had done evil things and would be punished in the future. You didn't believe it and even beat the fortune teller. Now you are fine, right? The punishment has come and you will have no descendants!"
The woman scolded him angrily and cried even harder while wiping her tears.
"You...keep your voice down!" Tao Feng was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He looked around vigilantly, with a guilty look on his face.
"What nonsense are you talking about, woman? What about good deeds and evil deeds? I don't believe in that, sir."
"You don't believe it? You don't believe that you set up a Buddhist shrine in the next room? You don't believe that you go there to burn incense and pray every day? You conscienceless person, if you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?" The woman questioned him again and again, crying and heartbroken.
Tao Feng was getting annoyed by her crying, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, stop crying. Even if I did something wrong back then, I have been burning incense and offering tribute to the Bodhisattva every day these years, so the Bodhisattva should forgive me.
"My son's death was just an accident. I have avenged him. Don't blame others for it."
The woman said nothing more and her crying gradually subsided.
Outside the window, Lu Xiuyuan and his wife heard their entire conversation. After being surprised, they were filled with tremendous anger. They gritted their teeth and wished they could grind the person in the room into ashes.
Lu Xiuyuan's face was as gloomy as if it had been soaked in ink. He clenched his fists and muttered angrily: "Damn it, he actually participated in the incident that framed my grandfather!"
Xia Younan patted his shoulder and comforted him, "God couldn't bear it anymore and let us hear this shocking secret. Hasn't Su Yu been looking for evidence of the Su family's frame-up? This evidence just happened to be delivered to our door."
Lu Xiuyuan said in annoyance: "What kind of evidence is this? It's just a coincidence that he said this and we heard him. It's simply a fantasy to expect him to admit his crime in front of others."
It’s so abominable. I heard with my own ears that the people in the house harmed my grandfather’s family, but I couldn’t redress his injustice because there was no substantial evidence.
Xia Younan rolled his eyes, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
The incident happened so long ago that it was almost impossible to find strong physical evidence. The only way she could think of was to make the old man admit it himself.
"I got it!" Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head and a good idea came to her mind.
"What?" Lu Xiuyuan looked at her in confusion.
Xia Younan smiled a big wicked smile and walked to the next room...
In the dead of night, the two took Qingyue out of the Shangshu Mansion and sent her to the mountain outside the city to find Zen wood. After that, they entered the palace overnight...
The sky was dim and it was clearly a beautiful day with a sunny day and clear blue sky, but Shangshu Tao Fengzheng's heart felt as if it had been buried in thousand-year-old ice, making him tremble with fear from the inside out.
He had a dream last night. He dreamed of Su Boyuan's family who had been dead for many years.
There were more than a dozen of them, big and small, all with blood gushing out of their seven orifices and full of resentment. They surrounded his bed, strangled him and forced him to pay with his life.
When he woke up, the cold sweat from the shock soaked the quilt, his whole body was shaking like a sieve, and his heart was beating in his throat.
Perhaps he was feeling too guilty, so he walked out of the room without even having time to wash or eat. He directly pushed open the Buddhist temple in the next room, wanting to burn some incense to the Buddha to seek psychological comfort.
"what!"
As the door of the room was pushed open, a scream came out of Tao Fengzheng's mouth.
He was seen slumped on the ground, staring at the scene in the room in horror, his face as pale as a piece of paper.
And he saw that on the altar facing the door, the Buddha statue that he had worshipped yesterday and seemed to be in normal condition, now had two streams of bright red blood flowing from its eyes!
The Buddha statue shed tears of blood!
This scene is extremely strange!
Tao Feng was terrified. He stood up in panic and bravely walked forward to check.
There was nothing wrong with the Buddha statue, but those two bright red streaks... He leaned over and smelled it, and it was indeed the smell of blood.
He swallowed and looked around. The doors and windows were locked before he came in. It couldn't be someone playing tricks. Could it be...
He didn't dare to think about it too much, let alone stay in this strange place any longer, and he left the room tremblingly.
Tao Feng was frightened by this incident and didn't dare to delay, so he hurried to the gate.
He wanted to go to the temple again to ask for a Buddha statue and ask the monk in the temple why the Buddha statue was shedding tears of blood.
As he walked out of the door, he saw a monk in monk's robes standing outside his house.
The monk clasped his hands together, raised his head slightly and gazed at the sky above his house, his brows furrowed with a serious expression.
Tao Feng looked back in the direction of his gaze, but didn't find anything strange above his house, so he walked over curiously and asked.
"Little Master, why are you standing at my door, and why are you looking up at the sky with a frown on your face?"
The monk chanted Amitabha, turned his gaze back and asked, "Are you the owner of this house?"
Tao Fengzheng nodded, "Excuse me, may I ask who the young master is..."
The monk clasped his hands together and nodded slightly, explaining, "This morning I went down the mountain to pray for the soul of a victim. When I passed by this place, I saw the dark air above this house, which looked eerie, so I stopped to take a look out of curiosity."
"What?!" Tao Feng exclaimed, his face turned pale in an instant. He turned back and looked at his house again and again, but saw nothing.
"This... Master, where is the dark air and spooky aura? I don't see anything."
