Chapter 288 I Want to Be a Villain 78
Tao Ran went to see the Taoist priest yesterday just to give him a "suspended death".
"This is the end of the grudge between us. You can change your mind and start a new life, and you don't have to be hunted down anymore." More importantly, after this, Tao Ran and the Taoist priest were completely in the same boat.
Tao Ran no longer had to worry that he would turn back one day, thus eliminating a major hidden danger.
For this reason, Tao Ran promised the Taoist priest that after the Qian family collapsed, he would set him free and give him an identity.
But the Taoist priest said: "Want to cross the river and burn the bridge? After using me, just kick him away. Don't even think about it."
Doesn't he understand this woman yet? Even if he doesn't agree, she can still achieve what she wants by herself. There is no point in resisting.
On the contrary, how much money has this woman made through deception and abduction? With such a rich woman by your side, there is no reason to go out and work hard, right?
Tao Ran: "What do you want?"
Taoist priest: "I and my disciples have nowhere to go and are penniless because of your gift. Either you give me back my money, or we have to live in your village to enjoy the food and drink."
"It's a sect, not a village!" The essence is different.
The Taoist priest rolled his eyes, isn't it just a bandit's den? What's the difference? "Whatever. Anyway, we won't leave for now."
"also."
Tao Ran felt that he really needed someone around him who could read and write...
"If you have nothing to do, study Taoism first, and then give me a copy of what you have learned. On weekdays, teach my disciples how to read. Especially the children."
"Okay. I'll hang out with you from now on, but I have a condition."
The condition of the Taoist priest is that she must also be responsible for his disciples. She had to keep them. He also has to personally teach by his side.
"Can."
When they are all here, she will slowly educate them.
"In the future, I will build a charity hall where your Taoist temple is located to take in the old, weak, sick and disabled. I will be responsible for you and your disciples." Tao Ran knew that the Taoist priest cared about merit, so he said this specifically to distract him.
The Taoist priest also glanced at Tao Ran. In fact, this is the main reason why he is willing to stay.
This girl has a clear distinction between good and evil, and she's still okay. I heard that in a short period of time, she has resettled a group of refugees. They were all poor people who had fled from the south.
She can help strangers, so now that the old feud between them is over, they will definitely be able to cooperate happily in the future...
Shantang is a good way to accumulate merit, but it requires so much money that the Taoist priest dare not even think about it, and he is reluctant to part with the money. But now if we have the opportunity to be generous to others, that would be a great good thing. Of course he is willing.
He suddenly felt that Tao Ran was too pleasing to the eye. The merits of opening a charity hall were immeasurable and could atone for the sins he had done in the first half of his life.
…
In this way, the two reached an agreement.
The two apprentices of the Taoist priest who were captured by Tao Ran, after some education from the two old foxes, acted together in a show early this morning.
The other disciples of the Taoist priest arrived after hearing the news. They were all heartbroken when they heard the bad news. After that, everything went as planned...
Tao Ran naturally didn't think that this would make Qian Dingbao guilty of murder, but she was confident that after some operation, at least Qian Dingbao's official position would be exactly the opposite of his name, so he would definitely not be able to keep it!
What is the century-old clan most afraid of?
Isn’t it just decline? Isn’t it because wealth, status and reputation are in jeopardy? Aren't you just afraid of falling?
Whatever they fear, she will give them.
Falling from the top into the mud, they have failed their eighteen generations of ancestors, and they themselves cannot bear it.
Living with nothing is even more torture for them.
If you commit evil, you must pay it back, isn't it natural?
…
The magistrate is very lucky.
It was also the Qian family's bad luck. In order to save money in the past two days, they dismissed a large number of servants. When these people were investigated and interrogated by the government, they had no scruples because they were separated from the Qian family. They basically said whatever they wanted. Their confessions also added their own guesses and rumors among the servants in the government.
They confirmed that Li Jingui was indeed married to Li Jingui and later demoted his wife as a maid; they admitted that all the masters in the mansion hated Jin Gui and tortured and abused Li Jingui; now thinking about it, Li Jingui was constantly injured every day. They are all constantly begging to be let go, which is really pitiful...
When these remarks were made into a confession, the despicable and vicious side of the mansion was also revealed. Jin Gui should feel relieved to see the scene now, right?
When those servants were asked about the cause of Jin Gui's death, they said that it was a strange time. The old lady suddenly became very good to Jin Gui, stood up for her, took her with her, and even allocated a yard for her, which made the whole house feel strange. Thinking about it now, maybe the old lady did all this just to get rid of Miss Jingui...
They also said that the eldest young master often said that he wanted to kill the woman, and the second young master almost killed the woman with a fighting dog...
In fact, when the confession came to this point, the magistrate felt that the first case could be solved.
It turns out that the Qian family had more than one murder intention against Jin Gui.
In order to make it easier for Qian Feng to win a new wife without breaking the law, Mrs. Qian let Li Jingui live alone in the small courtyard. When the fire broke out, she deliberately failed to rescue her and burned Jingui alive. Later, he felt guilty and paid Li Dashan a large amount of hush money.
The fire burned for several hours, and the Qian family even sent away the officials and neighbors who helped put out the fire, which shows that they were careful.
With all the witnesses and material evidence, the Qian family cannot escape.
Mrs. Qian was arraigned as a suspect.
Tao Ran's scare was very effective. Now Mrs. Qian is just a poor creature who lies down unable to speak and can only move her fingers slightly.
Naturally, she couldn't defend herself.
The county magistrate was so powerful that he deliberately did not allow Qian Dingbao, the backbone of the Qian family, to go to court to argue on the grounds that Qian Dingbao was in office at the time and was "uninformed." And he was being detained, so he didn't even have a chance to think of a way to deal with it.
Then the only people left who can represent the Qian family are a bunch of trash.
The magistrate began to work hard for his reputation and performance.
Even Qian Xiang was included as a suspect because of his murderous intention against Li Jingui.
In this way, all the owners of Qian's family home became defendants.
This frightened the second room.
They were afraid that the bad things they had done to Jin Gui would be found out, and they were afraid of being implicated, so after going to court, they repeatedly emphasized that they were requesting a separation. Jin Gui is the eldest son of the house, and they don't know the reason for what happened that night, but what Qian Feng and Qian Xiang did to Jin Gui is true...
In this way, with the support of various evidences, the Qian family was convicted of setting fire to murder Li Jingui.
In fact, this is what Tao Ran wants most!
In the story, Jin Gui was miserably tortured to death. This time, Jin Gui survived, but the debt cannot be ignored! The Qian family must pay the price for their murders and injuries!
Not only did those people have to be punished by her, they also had to be taught a lesson by the law. It was not in vain that she planned and endured Li Dashan and the villagers until today just to use their help to seek justice for Li Jingui!
