Ding Qi was sitting in the teahouse, which was full of people, and was discussing what was happening today.
"...It's really a bad luck for the family. If you have treasures at home, it's impossible to make all parties worry about it." Someone smiled.
"What baby?" The new person next to him who didn't understand suddenly asked Ding Qi's heart.
"It is said to be the essence of a soul jade. You have heard of the soul jade. If you don't move, you can only trade dozens or millions of taels per piece. The essence of a soul jade is the most rare thing in the soul jade mine. It is said that a soul jade vein may not necessarily have a drop of soul jade essence. The Shi family owns a whole piece. How many people will be moved?"
"The two deans of Shuguang Academy came to Shi's house yesterday, but they were thrown out. Something happened today. They said they were not killed for the essence of this soul jade. Who would believe it? People died for money and birds died for food. It is natural. These students blocked their doors like fools. They were really used by others and thought they were doing things for heaven."
"Young people are passionate, there is nothing we can do about this. Hahaha."
The conversation between the people next to him reached Ding Qi's ears, making him stand on the spot.
Could it be that the two deans died because they blamed themselves?
Just as he was listening, the sounds around him gradually became quiet. Even the person who had not stopped talking was stabbed by his companion and signaled him to look in a certain direction.
Ding Qi also looked along the guest's sight and saw that a group of people had come downstairs from the teahouse at some point, and the atmosphere was stern. Ding Qi knew all these people, and they were the heads of the very famous family in Shuguang City. Behind them were the guards of each family.
"Hiss, there are actually more than a dozen powerful people from the Dan Condensing Realm!" Someone exclaimed in a low voice, "There are three powerful people from the Ninth Level of the Dan Condensing Realm who are here."
"It seems that today they really want to erase the Shi family from Dawn City."
"There is only one essence of the soul jade. Could it be that so many families can still be divided equally?" someone said.
"If there is no soul jade essence, there must be other things. They just want to come and get a share of the pie. Even if there are no two deans, they will definitely find other excuses. Every man is guilty of being innocent. Now the Shi family is pushed to the forefront, and the wall is falling, and everyone pushes them. Why won't the aristocratic families seize the opportunity to unite and push down the Shi family?"
Ding Qi looked at the students below with gratitude because of these reinforcements, and for some reason he felt a little disgusted.
If the death of the two deans was caused by their own fault as the people around them said, and the Shi family caused public anger because of the guilt of possessing a treasure, then what are their people? Helping the evildoer?
No wonder dad and grandpa are unwilling to come and get involved in this matter...
But was it that he was indifferent to watching the tragic life of the Shi family like this? He asked himself that he couldn't do it.
After jumping down from the teahouse, Ding Qi decided to follow these people to enter the Shi family. You can tell what the details are. According to his current identity as the son of the city lord, there should not be much resistance.
In the Shi family, Mrs. Shi heard the news from the servants and knew that some of the minds in Shuguang City outside had come, she looked at Shi Yu and said, "Open the door to welcome guests."
The door of the Shi family finally opened, and everyone was shocked. After being silent for so many days, are you finally going to meet today?
People outside looked around, but Ding Qi, who followed these uncles and uncles into the Shi family, felt that the atmosphere inside was not much the same as what he thought was solemn. Although no one spoke, the people's faces did not have the sad expression, but more of anger.
Bypassing the screen wall, he came to the living room, where there were several people sitting. What surprised Ding Qi was that the girl he had hit before was sitting next to him.
She is also from the Shi family?
"I won't go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Are you here so much today? Is it for the two deans of Shuguang Academy?" Mrs. Shi didn't say too much and went straight to the point.
"Mrs. Shi seems to be very clear about what crime she has committed." The oldest among the crowd walked out and said, "How many younger generations have the two deans trained for our Shuguang City, and even the descendants of your Shi family are studying at Shuguang Academy. Why do you have the heart to do this?
"If you don't come to seek justice for the two deans today, the public will be unhappy." The others behind the old man also said.
They looked at Mrs. Shi's expression and looked compassionate. It was as if Mrs. Shi was really an unforgivable evil person, and they were all good people who practiced the law for heaven.
"What is justice you are talking about? Killing someone to pay for your life? When they were dealing with Shi's family outside, you didn't stand up to seek justice for us. Now that they are dead, you stand up to say justice. Don't you think this is very ridiculous?" Mrs. Shi said sarcastically.
Everyone knows what this group of people thinks, but they still have to convict her under the guise of justice. Even if there is justice, it is not their turn to make a conclusion.
When the old man in front heard this, his eyes were filled with anger, "It's stubborn! We only saw two deans tragically die at your hands. If your Shi family doesn't give an explanation today, don't blame us for being rude."
"Explanation?" Mrs. Shi sneered, "What explanation? How to explain?"
"It's very simple. The man was killed by Madam Shi, you instructed his servants to kill him. Of course, you and the man who took action knelt down in front of the bodies of the two deans and apologized for himself." A man next to him said lightly, "In addition, he will add all Shi's property to the college as an apology, so that he may be forgiven by the college."
The third panda was not very clear, so he couldn't help but ask Yu: "What does self-destruction mean?"
"It's just that you'll kill yourself with a knife." Shi Yu looked at the group of people and stood up and said, "It's so funny. When will it be your turn to interfere with others' grievances? Still want Mrs. Shi to commit suicide? Sorry, I won't agree."
This time everyone then turned their attention to her, and one of them said disdainfully: "Don't you agree? What are you? You won't get the turn of pointing fingers here."
