The sound made several people tremble with fright, and they almost dropped their hoes. Standing close to each other, several people first looked around, and after not seeing anyone, they turned around to do their work tremblingly.
.
"Look at how scared you all are, hahaha." Ye Shengnan stood aside, shaking his legs, looking at the frightened expressions of several people, and laughed loudly: "You are so timid, how can you achieve great things in the future! You will only be a fool for the rest of your life.
The slave’s life is at stake!”
Although Ye Shengnan's words sounded nice, he soon slapped himself hard in the face.
The lantern in Ye Shengnan's hand suddenly went out, and then the black shadow flashed in front of Ye Shengnan's eyes, making Ye Shengnan say "Oh my God" and shout "There is a ghost!".
Ye Shengnan's actions made those who were preparing to open the coffin not care so much and ran away. But before they ran far, they were chased by the flickering ghost again.
There were gusts of wind and stars. Several lanterns fell to the ground, some were extinguished, and the remaining two glowed with faint fire, making people feel even colder.
Ye Shengnan listened to the slaves crying and begging grandpa and grandma, talking about Bodhisattva's blessings, and he was extremely afraid. It was the first time he did such a thing, and Ye Shengnan also knew that the dead are not easy to mess with. But for Ye Lianrong's money
, there is nothing he can do!
Just when Ye Shengnan was trembling and at a loss, he suddenly felt a cold wind blowing directly behind him. His body was stiff and he was stunned. The people around him didn't know what they saw, and they all screamed and ran away in despair. Ye Shengnan both
My legs were weak, and before I could take a step, I heard a gloomy female voice coming from my ears.
"You dug my grave, I won't let you go..."
"Yes, I'm sorry, I don't dare to do it anymore!!!" After hearing this, Ye Shengnan couldn't hold on any longer. He only felt a tightness between his legs, and then heat flowed down his legs.
Come down.
Ye Shengnan, who wet his pants with fear, cried and tried to escape, but was grabbed by the collar by the woman. Struggling to get out of her control, Ye Shengnan's voice almost became hoarse, which made the woman who originally just wanted to scare him
Lan Ruoling had no choice but to stop.
Lan Ruoling used a little force and pulled Ye Shengnan towards her body. "Okay, okay, stop screaming, there's no ghost."
After Ye Shengnan shouted for a while, he slowly came to his senses. Looking at the slaves who had been captured over there, Ye Shengnan slowly turned his head. When he saw Lan Ruoling behind him, Ye Shengnan's body suddenly became soft.
, and collapsed in Lan Ruoling's arms in fear, unable to stand up.
"What a useless waste." Lan Ruoling muttered and cursed in her heart. She had no choice but to help Ye Shengnan to the side and threw him to the ground. Then she ordered her men to dig up the grave.
They tied them all up and re-buried the two graves that they had dug into disgrace.
"Coming here in the middle of the night to do such an immoral thing, even if the ghosts don't come out to find you now, they won't be able to escape you in the future!" Lan Ruoling looked condescendingly at several men sitting together, and finally turned her eyes to Ye Shengnan
"Young Master Ye, what do you want to do when you stay up late at night and come here? Can you make a fortune by digging this grave? Or can you get promoted?"
Ye Shengnan was caught by Lan Ruoling, and it was difficult to say anything, but he did not decide to confess because of this. After Ye Shengnan calmed down for a while, although the feeling of fear still did not completely disappear, at least he was no longer so shaky when speaking.
.
Ye Shengnan looked at Lan Ruoling coldly and warned: "I'm afraid I'll scare you if I tell you! If you are wise, send me back to the house quickly, otherwise I will never be done with you!"
"Okay, then I'll just wait." Lan Ruoling was not afraid of threats from others. She nodded happily, leaving Ye Shengnan to break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach.
When Ye Shengnan saw that it was useless to talk to Lan Ruoling like this, he changed the subject and moved the prince out. "I am here today to handle the matters assigned by the prince."
"Prince?" Lan Ruoling sneered, still not planning to let Ye Shengnan go. "Then I will go to the prince tomorrow and ask him why he has to come to a place like this to do such a big thing so late."
"Presumptuous! Who do you think you are? You can see the prince whenever you want?"
"Yes, that's right." Lan Ruoling nodded in agreement, "It's really not easy to meet the prince in normal times, but this time it's different. I was ordered to investigate the case. It's a major case where human life is at stake. Negligence
No. Although I can't see the prince directly, it shouldn't be difficult if I ask the eighth prince to take me into the palace, right?"
Ye Shengnan has the prince as his backer, so why doesn't Lan Ruoling have Lin Yinan? Besides, Lan Ruoling knows that this matter has nothing to do with the prince, and Ye Shengnan doesn't dare to really go to the prince for this kind of thing, and the prince is even less likely to pull him.
She had to reveal her identity to help him tell the lie, so Lan Ruoling had already seen through Ye Shengnan's fake and powerful side.
Lan Ruoling's words made Ye Shengnan immediately dumbfounded. The Eighth Prince? Ye Shengnan twitched the corner of his mouth, showed an extremely ugly smile, and asked: "Miss Lan, can I ask, what murder case are you here to investigate?
"
"You don't know? I thought you had guessed it." Lan Ruoling crossed her hands on her chest, staring at the change of expression on Ye Shengnan's face, and said, "It belongs to Yang Xinyuan, otherwise you dig her grave, and I will
do not care."
Ye Shengnan's heart suddenly sank, and she secretly shouted, "This is over." Lan Ruoling was famous for being unkind. She had arrested so many prisoners, and her reputation in the court was getting bigger and bigger day by day. Today's
If the matter is revealed, then she will really be finished in the future, there will be no chance. But everything is fine, why is she checking Yang Xinyuan?
Ye Shengnan couldn't understand, and Lan Ruoling didn't intend to tell him here. Lan Ruoling glanced at Ye Shengnan's wet pants and smiled meaningfully. She said to the men who had finished their work over there: "Bring them with you."
People, withdraw!"
Ye Shengnan used hard and soft tactics along the way, but Lan Ruoling just refused to let him go. "Unless you explain why you came to dig Yang Xinyuan's grave so late, I can't make the decision on this matter."
"You can't do it, who can!" Ye Shengnan was almost embarrassed in front of the slave, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. "I wanted to dig someone else's grave, but I found the wrong one. This matter has nothing to do with me, hurry up
Let me go!"
Lan Ruoling smiled and said nothing, and separated Ye Shengnan from several of his minions. Lan Ruoling ordered people to take Ye Shengnan to the Yamen first, and then she took those few people and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Lan Ruoling did things so neatly that Lu Zhiyao had to look at her with admiration again.
"What are you going to do next?" Lan Ruoling leaned against the door frame, looked at Lu Zhiyao, and whispered: "Although the Eighth Prince and I helped you in this matter, we don't want to be involved."
"Don't worry, Miss Lan, I have my own sense of discretion." Lu Zhiyao glanced at the few people on the ground who had been knocked unconscious by Lan Ruoling, and asked, "Are these the few?"
"There is also Ye Shengnan. I sent him directly to the Yamen to change his pants."
Lan Ruoling's words made Lu Zhiyao chuckle. He knelt down and patted one of them on the cheek. Lu Zhiyao spoke softly and said, "Miss Lan can go back to rest after sending him over. Another day."
I will come to your door in person to thank you and the Eighth Prince."
After Lan Ruoling left, Lu Zhiyao identified the people on the ground one by one. Seeing their frightened expressions, Lu Zhiyao smiled brightly.
"Do you know whose grave is being dug tonight?"
Lu Zhiyao rarely showed up, so these people didn't know who she was. They shook their heads in fear. Several people had their hands and feet tied and were lying on the ground in a panic, unable to speak or run.
Lu Zhiyao raised his eyebrows and took out the foreign object from the mouth of the person closest to him. "Then tell me, who asked you to dig the grave? As long as you tell the truth, I will let you go."
The man was stunned for a moment. After remembering Ye Shengnan's fierce appearance, he shook his head and refused to compromise.
"If you don't say anything, don't blame me for being rude." Lu Zhiyao didn't want to waste time with him. She had already asked Wan Yue to call Lu Yuanzheng. She had to find someone who knew the current affairs before Lu Yuanzheng showed up.
That's all.
Lu Zhiyao's eyes turned cold in an instant, murderous intent flashed through his eyes. Lu Zhiyao raised his hand and grabbed the man's throat mercilessly. Her strength became stronger and stronger, and the man's breathing became harder and harder.
Difficult. Seeing that his vision was blurred, the man used the last bit of strength in his body and said laboriously: "I, I said."
"Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Shouldn't we have been punished if we had done this earlier?" Lu Zhiyao returned to his previous appearance, smiled sweetly at the man, patted his chest and helped him calm down. "Tell me,
Why are you there?"
"Our young master took us there." The man breathed heavily and looked at Lu Zhiyao in front of him defensively. He was very afraid that if he said something wrong, he would be strangled to death by this woman. And the people lying next to him were strangled to death.
Everyone on the ground had the same idea as him. This Lu Zhiyao looked weak and quiet, but when he moved his hands, he was really fierce. They all saw the scene just now. If the man hadn't taken the initiative to show weakness, he would have been really fierce.
will be strangled to death.
"What is your young master's name? Besides digging graves, what else did he ask you to do?"
"Our young master is Ye Shengnan, the eldest young master of the Ye family. He..." The man paused for a moment, but after seeing Lu Zhiyao shaking his hands, he immediately said quickly: "He asked us to dig out the coffin.
, after taking a look at it twice, he asked us to dig out the coffin next to it and exchange the bones inside. Miss, if you have a lot, please let us go. We slaves all obey the orders of our master. I
I beg you!"
"Very good. Remember what you said. You have to say it to me word for word later. If there is even half a lie, don't blame me for what I did to you."
