Chapter 122 Worse than Beasts!

"Who are you in the hall and what are you offering? Tell me carefully!" Jing Zhaoyin slapped the wood in the hall and the whole place fell into silence.

Qin Sheng kowtowed hurriedly: "My lords, my name is Qin Sheng. I am here to expose Du Yuanwai's collusion with the bandits who had caused trouble before and stole the food provided by the imperial court for disaster relief for their own personal gain!"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ningning was a little surprised.

Jing Zhaoyin asked: "What evidence is there?"

Qin Sheng pointed at Shen Ningning: "She, she is the witness."

Mo Lingwei's eyes darkened for a moment: "Put your hand down."

Qin Sheng retracted his hand and trembled with fear.

He replied: "A year ago, one night, I wanted to tease Shen Ningning, but she struggled too much and ran to the mountain."

"But I grabbed her shoes and chased her. Unexpectedly, I saw Du Yuanwai, who was staying at my house, discussing the details of grain reselling with two thieves in the back mountain."

That night, Du Yuanwai saw a short figure catting in the grass.

In fact, it was not Shen Ningning, but Qin Sheng who crouched down and hid.

"I personally heard Du Yuanwai discussing with them how to distribute the money. Later, he seemed to have discovered me. I hurriedly fled home, leaving Shen Ningning's little shoe where it was."

"Originally, I was worried and worried, thinking that I would be retaliated against by him, but he didn't seem to care about me. Instead, he kept inciting my wife Wang Guihong to deal with Shen Ningning."

"I have a vague answer in my mind. He must have seen the shoe and thought that Shen Ningning had eavesdropped on his secret. Du Yuanwai was afraid of being exposed, so he wanted to deal with Shen Ningning cruelly."

Jing Zhaoyin looked at Shen Ningning and said in a serious tone: "Is what he said true? One night a year ago, you escaped to the mountains?"

Shen Ningning's face was pale and she looked fragile and pitiful.

She stood up silently to answer.

Mo Lingwei gently pressed her shoulder: "Sit down and talk, you don't have to be so formal."

Shen Ningning sat down again. Her long eyelashes trembled and her lips opened and closed several times, but she did not speak.

Everyone was surprised.

Jing Zhaoyin did not dare to urge her, and only said: "Miss Shen, don't be afraid. Think about it carefully. Were you really forced by him to hide in the mountains?"

After a long while, Shen Ningning said with a trembling voice: "Yes..."

Mo Lingwei was a little surprised.

Shen Ningning pursed her pink lips: "Because uncle makes me uncomfortable."

"Why does he make you uncomfortable?"

"He touched my face and asked me to wash his feet. When I didn't agree, he wanted to tie me up." Shen Ningning recalled the details of that night.

The more she spoke, the more fear grew on her face.

The days when he was bullied by the Qin family were still vivid in his mind.

She was very young and didn't understand why Uncle Qin always wanted to touch her face and little hands, let alone why his eyes made her uncomfortable every time.

Shen Ningning told the truth: "Because that day, my uncle drank a lot of wine and pulled me very hard. I was afraid and had no choice but to run to the mountains..."

"Where are you hiding on the mountain? Have you seen Du Yuanwai?"

"I didn't see it, because I climbed up a tree and slept. When I came home the next day, I lost a shoe and was beaten by my aunt." After the little guy Nuonuo finished speaking, there were already tears in his eyes.

The number of times she was bullied by Uncle Qin was rare, but when Aunt Qin beat her, she was never merciless.

Mo Lingwei suddenly stood up, and the chair he was sitting on fell to the ground.

Before anyone could react, he rushed over and punched Qin Sheng so hard that Qin Sheng spit out three bloody teeth.

Mo Lingwei grabbed his collar, the veins on the back of his hands were exposed: "Damn you, she was only three years old at that time, how dare you be so presumptuous!"

Qin Sheng begged for mercy and shouted: "I have never succeeded. It's just that she was born with fair skin, so I want her to serve me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Mo Lingwei punched him again.

Jing Zhaoyin stammered and stopped him: "His Royal Highness, we will fight later. It won't be too late when the interrogation is clear."

The prince's personal guards hurriedly came up to stop him.

Mo Lingwei immediately picked up Shen Ningning from the chair and held her in his arms, letting her tears fall on his clothes.

The little guy clenched his sleeves tightly.

As soon as Qin Sheng sat up, Grandma Qin came to her senses, pulled out the sword from Chen Ye's waist, and rushed over.

"I'll chop you to death, you beast!"

Jing Zhaoyin hurriedly slapped the table: "Stop the old lady quickly!"

Wang Captou and several officials hurriedly stepped forward to pull him away.

"Old man, calm down, we are investigating the case."

Qin Sheng covered his face and cried bitterly: "Mom, I am your biological son!"

Grandma Qin was shaking with anger, her face was red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I don't have a son like you. Ning Ning is so young, one year younger than your daughter. How dare you, how dare you!"

Qin Sheng cried and said that he regretted it. He also slapped himself in the face and scolded himself for not being a good person.

But everyone present looked at him with contempt.

Jing Zhaoyin sighed: "Miss Shen, why didn't you tell your family when you first encountered this incident?"

Shen Ningning remained silent.

Grandma Qin cried and said, "Sir, don't ask her. It's too cruel to let the child keep thinking about painful memories. I can answer this question for you."

"At that time, Ning Ning and I were often hungry. At that time, my daughter-in-law Wang Guihong relied on her natal family to gain power. My son Qin Sheng was weak and incompetent. He beat the children more than once and refused to treat them when they were sick. This was a common occurrence. ”

"Ningning is a sensible and intelligent child. She knows that even if she tells it, no one can make the decision for her. She also feels sorry for me. She is old and is afraid that I will stand up for her and be embarrassed by Wang Guihong, so she didn't tell me."

Grandma Qin told all the grievances that Shen Ningning had suffered.

Everyone felt distressed and even more angry.

The Qin couple bullied weak children and abused the elderly. Is this still something human?

Mo Lingwei lowered his eyes and looked at the little guy leaning against his arms. He felt that she was really pitiful.

Before Shen Ningning encountered the wolf pack, she was not only beaten and scolded by Aunt Qin, but also had to avoid Uncle Qin taking advantage of her.

What is the difference between her life before the age of four and living in purgatory?

After Grandma Qin finished speaking, Jingzhao Yin, who also had two daughters, couldn't help but shed two lines of tears.

"Child, you have suffered." He said with emotion.

Now, he suddenly felt that Shen Ningning deserved to be supported by the prince.

After so much suffering, it's time to get some happiness, right?

The interrogation later was basically clear.

Du Yuanwai thought Shen Ningning was someone who heard his secret, so he kept trying to arrange people to target her.

Moreover, this time, Du Yuanwai actually borrowed a large sum of gold from Wei Sanye to hire a killer.

The truth of the matter was revealed, and Jingzhao Yin was ready to make a final decision.

"Wait," Shen Ningning heard the result, her big watery eyes showed a hint of suspicion: "How did Du Yuanwai know that Wei Sanye?"

Jingzhao Yin patiently explained: "Wei Sanye is a famous elegant young man in the capital, who likes to walk birds, and Du Yuanwai also likes it, so the two of them got to know each other. I have just interrogated their related friends and can confirm that they have had private contacts several times."

So, it's not surprising that he borrowed money, after all, Wei Sanye is a bastard and has a lot of money.

Shen Ningning breathed a sigh of relief.

"Really? But I still have some clues. Uncle official, you can also try it."

When Jingzhao Yin heard this soft call, his heart softened!

"Okay, where are the clues?"

Shen Ningning turned her head from Mo Lingwei's arms and looked at the entrance of the government office.

Jiang Zhi's figure was already waiting there.

"Brother Jiang, bring the witness in."
