Meng Zheng figured out the causes and consequences, and his face felt a little embarrassed.
He turned to look at Xiao Lingyue and bowed, "Mr. Anping County, my sister is naughty and ignorant. I am willing to apologize to you for her and hope you can forgive me."
Xiao Lingyue was a little surprised and said bluntly: "I thought you would help your cousin?"
She was mentally prepared.
If Meng Zheng really helped Meng Wanqing with perjury... Xiao Lingyue wouldn't be afraid!
She thought of the missing evidence of the hairpin early in the morning. With ironclad evidence in hand, Zhao Chengwei is famous for enforcing the law impartially. There are too many ways to find out the real owner of the hairpin.
Even if Meng Zheng favored his cousin, for Xiao Lingyue, he was just a slap in the face.
But she didn't expect it.
Meng Zheng did not choose to maintain it, but instead took the initiative to expose Meng Wanqing.
Are they not their relatives’ cousins?
The Meng family has always adhered to the style of a gentleman and has a famous family of etiquette.
To put it nicely, it is to destroy relatives for justice, but to put it bluntly, it is just unkind.
Didn't he consider his reputation as a gentleman?
Hearing Xiao Lingyue's words, Meng Zheng was stunned for a moment, but smiled bitterly: "I can't help her."
He said calmly: "With the physical evidence of hairpin in hand, County Lord Anping has become invincible, and Lord Zhao is here, so it will only be a matter of time to find out the truth."
As soon as Wanqing went out wearing a hairpin today, many people saw it, and there were countless witnesses.
Secondly, her hair crown is a beloved thing. Lord Zhao just sends someone to the Meng family to ask a few questions and can easily find out.
Finally, even if the Meng family is willing to do perjury for her, Lord Zhao can still check the jewelry store and find documents and certificates.
With so many investigation methods and evidence, even if I want to favor my sister, it will be useless.
What's more, the Meng family has rules and regulations, and a gentleman can do something but not!
If I favored her and framed innocent people just because she was my cousin, it would be a disgrace to the Meng family.
I, Meng Zheng, cannot do such a thing!"
After hearing this, Xiao Lingyue smiled and said meaningfully: "Young Master Meng is a smart person."
Meng Zheng's words were reasonable and well-founded.
Integrity and humanity.
First, I pointed out that this matter is proof of the truth. It’s not that he doesn’t want to help Meng Wanqing, but that he can’t help.
Not only can he not help, he is also unwilling to help.
Why?
Because perjury and frame slander is contrary to the style of a gentleman.
It insults the reputation of the Meng family.
Therefore, he had to choose to destroy his relatives for justice. Meng Wanqing was also helpless.
After saying this, who would think that Meng Zheng is inhumane?
I'm afraid everyone will think that he is a gentleman and the Meng family's family tradition is well-known!
As for Meng Wanqing.
She was purely self-inflicted, and Meng Zheng killed his relatives for justice, which proved that he was noble in character and deserved to be a "model of the Meng family gentleman."
The reason why Xiao Lingyue said he was smart was because she saw that Meng Zheng knew how to judge the situation very well. He gave up decisively even though he knew he could not do anything. He even secretly stepped on Meng Wanqing and used her actions to raise herself up.
And the Meng family.
After one operation, who doesn’t think that Meng Wanqing’s own moral character is corrupt?
Has nothing to do with the Meng family?
Xiao Lingyue thought with a sarcastic feeling: This is the cleverness of the eldest son of the Meng family!
More than eight hundred miles better than a fool like Meng Wanqing.
