MTL - Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year-Chapter 586 Get to the bottom of things

Meng Waning lives with her mother in Meng's house, which is not the same place as the Lu Mansion where Mrs. Meng lives.

 Therefore, when the Imperial Guards broke into Meng's house late at night, hundreds of people in the family were so frightened that they all put on their clothes and came to the front yard.

The masters, wives, and children in several rooms were all frightened and trembling, not knowing what was going on.

“Could it be that your second uncle’s case has been decided and he really killed him?” Mother Meng didn’t know yet, so she took Meng Wan Ning’s hand, guessing that Lu Shaoyuan’s matter was serious.

And Lu Shaoyuan's mother is an important figure in the Meng family, so she naturally wants to investigate thoroughly.

Mother Meng didn't see Meng Wanning's pale face at all. She just clicked her tongue twice: "I told you a long time ago that their family's wealth is not worthy of it. They earn so much money and they end up raising a bastard."

 In the early years, Meng's mother had a disagreement with Mrs. Meng due to personality issues. Although there was no conflict on the surface, she was always waiting to see Mrs. Meng's jokes in private.

  After all, there are not many women like Mrs. Meng who can retain their surname after marriage.

For example, Meng's mother's surname was Qin, and she was called Mrs. Meng after she got married. But when it comes to Mrs. Meng, the first thing that everyone in the capital thinks of is the powerful wife of the Lu family.

Mrs. Meng is a girl from the Meng family. After she got married, her husband loved her and her parents-in-law respected her. Knowing that she liked doing business, they were extremely supportive.

He didn’t care about her public appearance at all, and he didn’t use those pedantic rules to restrain her.

So for so many years, everyone called her Mrs. Meng. Even her husband, Mr. Lu, was very happy. He often said that his wife was not his vassal, which made all the noble ladies in Beijing envious.

Meng's mother's eyes flashed with ridicule at this time: "My parents-in-law love me, my husband is indulgent, and my eldest son is so proud. I thought she would be proud all her life, but what about now? Her younger son made such a big mistake! He defiled and then killed the girl." Well, this can be considered a shame to the Meng family!"

Meng Wan Ning's face turned pale and her voice trembled: "Mother, what kind of crime will my second uncle be sentenced to?"

Meng Mu snorted coldly: "What else could it be? It will definitely end up being quartered by five horses!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Wan Ning's legs became weak and she almost fell to the ground.

Meng Mu supported her and said, "What's wrong with you? Why is there so much sweat on your forehead? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Meng Wan nodded guiltily: "Yes, mother, I want to go back to my room to rest first, but there are so many forbidden soldiers, and we have to gather together, won't we be able to leave?"

Meng Mu glanced at the imperial army in front.

"It's okay. The entire Meng Mansion together has about 200 people. No one will notice you without you. Just go back and rest. Besides, it's the Lu family's trouble and it has nothing to do with you. Go ahead. , have a good sleep."

Meng Wanning was about to run away, but Wu Fang came in from outside, took a glance, and asked, "Are all the people in Meng's house here?"

Meng Wanning froze in her steps and did not dare to run away, because Wu Fang recognized her. What if she ran away and thought she was guilty of committing a crime?

 She could only hide behind everyone, hoping that Wu Fang would come and really announce that Lu Shaoyuan was convicted, rather than discover that the matter was related to her.

The current head of the family is Mrs. Meng, the second wife. Her gray hair is neatly trimmed and she is dignified and majestic.

 She was helped forward by two juniors.

“I wonder what the important matter is for your late night visit?”

Wu Fang handed over his hand: "Forgive me, old lady. I humbly accept the order of His Highness the Crown Prince to arrest Miss Meng Wan Ning and bring her into the palace to cooperate with the investigation."

As soon as this statement came out, the entire Meng family was in an uproar.

Mother Meng, who was waiting to see Mrs. Meng's excitement just now, was completely stunned.

Everyone's eyes turned around, and with surprise and scrutiny, they all fell on Meng Wan Ning at the end.

Everyone stepped back one by one as if they were deliberately avoiding it, until there was no one around Meng Wanning, and she was surrounded by everyone's eyes.

She felt her face was so hot that she couldn't even lift her head.

Mother Meng couldn't believe it and took two steps forward: "Sir, could your Highness the Crown Prince have made a mistake? It was Lu Shaoyuan who did this. What does it have to do with my daughter Wan Ning?"

Wu Fang's tone was cold: "The young boy Ah Jin who was caught just now has been recruited. Miss Meng bribed him with five hundred taels of silver and asked him to help steal His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's patrol plan from Lord Lu Fu's study. The evidence is conclusive, and we need to take her back for torture now.”

Meng Mu almost fell to the ground.

Mrs. Meng has a stern look in her eyes. She usually has very strict requirements for the children of the clan and will never allow such abuse.

She also heard about what happened to Lu Shaoyuan, but she didn’t expect that it was her own family who harmed her own family! "In this case, please take her away, Your Majesty. Our Meng family is upright and has never had such a heartless person. If the matter is found out and it is indeed her who did it, please tell His Highness the Crown Prince that we The entire Meng family hopes that he will deal with it seriously and will never tolerate this woman!"

 After saying this, Mrs. Meng waved her sleeves, leaned her crane-headed crutch on the ground, and turned sideways, looking extremely serious.

With the permission of the head of the family, Wu Fang immediately sent people to capture Meng Wan Ning.

“Mother! Grandma! It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me, you have to save me!” Meng Wan Ning kept wailing and was dragged away directly.

Wu Fang and his people rushed back to the palace.

Mother Meng knelt in front of Mrs. Meng: "Mother, you have to save Wan Ning. You have watched her grow up. Even if she did something wrong, you can't bear to watch her die, right? ?”

Mrs. Meng lowered her head and stared at her with sharp eyes: "If she really does such a scandal and ruins the family tradition, I will definitely support the emperor in giving her the death penalty! And you, as her mother, do not discipline her well on weekdays. You have made the mistake of divorcing your wife, and you still want to plead for her? Huh!"

Mrs. Meng suddenly threw away her hand, leaned on crutches, and left with the help of her juniors.

The tribesmen looked at Meng Mu with no sympathy.

Meng Wan Ning and her daughter were usually domineering in the house just because they occupied the legitimate children. Now that such a big thing happened, no one really sympathized with them.

Meng Mu fell to the ground, crying and wailing, and soon passed out.

Meng Wan Ning was still shouting that she was wronged on the way, but when she entered the palace, Mo Lingwei actually had the bodies of Shu Yan and Lu Shaoyuan placed in front of her.

 Have someone press Meng Wan Ning's neck and take a good look at the faces of Shu Yan and the boy.

"In front of them, are you going to say that you haven't done it? That you didn't know anything about it?" Mo Lingwei sat high on the throne, his voice cold and distant, as if coming from the sky.

Meng Wan Ning was frightened and broke down crying: "I did it, but I... I just wanted Shen Ningning to give up on His Highness. I didn't want to harm anyone. This is the first time I have done such a thing. Your Highness, please forgive me. Your Highness." !”

Mo Lingwei frowned in disgust.

He would lose his temper if he said one more word to Meng Wan Ning.

So he waved his hand and asked Chen Shaobei to interrogate Meng Wan Ning.

She wanted to get away with it, so she confessed quickly.

She bribed three people in total. Lu Fu's servant Ah Jin was responsible for stealing the prince's tour plans. She also bribed a helper from Jiang Shanglong because she learned that Lu Shaoyuan was going to discuss business the night before.

Jiang Shanglong’s business was unable to make ends meet, and all the shopkeepers below him were short of money. The shopkeeper Meng Wanning bribed was about to go out of his way due to gambling debts, so he agreed to Meng Wanning’s request without even thinking.

 After that, she arranged for the flower girl Shuyan she bribed to slander her and Lu Shaoyuan's innocence.

Shuyan's father was ill and needed a lot of money for treatment, so Meng Waning promised Shuyan that as long as she followed her instructions, she wouldn't have to worry about the money for her father's treatment.

 The only surprise after finishing the whole thing was that the shopkeeper she bribed accidentally killed Lu Shaoyuan's servant.

Two lives were lost, it was really troublesome.

Meng Wan Ning felt that her plan was perfect, but as she said, it was her first time and she had forgotten about silence.

 After a little more careful investigation, the truth was revealed.

Furthermore, Mo Lingwei unexpectedly learned that Meng Wan Ning pretended to be Ye Changyi and sent a message to Shen Ningning, inviting her to meet in a restaurant.

Just so that Shen Ningning would bump into Lu Shaoyuan and Shu Yan, and misunderstand that Shu Yan was brought by Mo Lingwei.

After learning the whole story, Mo Lingwei was furious and ordered Meng Wan Ning to be sentenced to death - quartered on five horses.

When he heard these four words, Meng Wan Ning's whole body went cold. He recalled in his mind the words of his mother who laughed at others, but now the retribution has come to him!

She was shaking with cold, more like fear, and kowtowed to beg for mercy all the way. Her head was bleeding. Mo Lingwei showed no mercy and had her taken away directly.

 Early the next morning.

Someone was standing at the door of Xie's Mansion, waiting for Shen Ningning.
