Upon hearing this, the guards, servants, and maids all made way for them.
Seeing this, the butler escorted Liu Yi's wife into the room.
"Ah~"
When Liu Yi's wife saw that Liu Yi's eyes were wide open and he looked like he was dying, she screamed in fright.
My head was spinning, and I was about to faint and collapse to the ground.
Seeing this, the butler hurriedly helped Liu Yi's wife up, pinching her philtrum while repeatedly calling out, "Madam, Madam..."
Liu Yi's wife was able to avoid fainting.
immediately.
She threw herself onto Liu Yi and burst into tears.
"Woooooo~"
"Husband, what's wrong with you?"
How could you abandon me?
How could you just leave me like this?
"You promised to always be with me, how could you break your promise?"
"..."
Liu Yi's wife wept uncontrollably, her voice seemingly filled with endless sorrow, reluctance, grief, and resentment, her heart breaking as if it were being torn apart.
She held Liu Yi's stiff body tightly.
Tears streamed down her face like broken pearls, wetting her sleeves.
Then, her hands trembled as she stroked his face again and again, trying to find a trace of familiar warmth in Liu Yi's lifeless face.
The surrounding air seemed to be infected by this sorrow, becoming heavy and oppressive.
The morning light shone through the window and fell on her, casting a long shadow that made her look especially lonely and helpless.
The servants and maids nearby were moved by the sight of Liu Yi's wife embracing his body in heartbreak, and tears welled up in their eyes.
The maids, in particular, were already in tears.
They never imagined that their mistress would still be so deeply in love with the general who didn't love her.
This touched them deeply.
"Madam, Madam..."
The butler pulled Liu Yi's legal wife along, calling out to her repeatedly.
"Who?"
"Who on earth ruined my husband like this?"
"My husband was fine when he came home last night, how could he be gone overnight?"
"Waaaaah... How could he just disappear overnight..."
Liu Yi's wife broke free from the butler's grasp and wept bitterly while holding Liu Yi's body.
The sound was so sorrowful that it brought tears to one's eyes and left one deeply saddened.
next moment.
Liu Yi's wife turned to the butler and asked, "Butler, who exactly injured my husband last night?"
"Madam is... the newly ennobled Marquis Han Feng, the same Han Feng who had someone slap the general a few days ago!" the steward replied hesitantly.
"It's him?"
"It must be him, he's the one who killed my husband."
"He must have secretly done something to my husband last night."
"Steward, go and report to the authorities immediately. I want to bring him to justice and avenge my husband."
Liu Yi's wife roared and urged the housekeeper to go to the police station on March 3.9th to report the incident and have the man arrested.
"This... Madam, he is a marquis!"
"Furthermore...we didn't witness him kill the Marquis, so he might not admit it."
The butler looked tense when he mentioned Han Feng, as if he was really afraid of him.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yi's wife immediately retorted angrily, "So what if he's a marquis? He has to pay for his life. He killed my husband, so he should pay for my husband's life."
“My husband is a man of the Great General and Prince An. How could he be afraid of Han Feng?”
When Liu Yi's wife mentioned Ji Wuye and Han An, she seemed to have found a solution.
!
!
81. Ji Wuye surrounded Han Feng with his troops, intending to execute him first and report later.
next moment.
She said to the steward, "Steward, immediately send someone to the General's Mansion and Prince An's Mansion to personally report this matter to the General and Prince An, and ask them to make a decision for us."
"This..." The butler hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.
"Why aren't you going yet?" Liu Yi's wife urged.
"Yes, Madam!" The butler then turned and left.
······
"what?"
"You're saying Liu Yi was killed by Han Feng last night?"
"What exactly is going on?"
Ji Wuye looked at Mo Ya with surprise and confusion.
Mo Ya nodded.
"Yes, General!"
"Just now, a servant from Liu Yi's residence came to report that Liu Yi caused trouble at Zilan Pavilion last night after getting drunk."
"He was captured by Han Feng's men and severely beaten."
"Han Feng even demanded that Liu Yi compensate him for 100,000 taels of silver, claiming that Liu Yi had disrupted his victory celebration banquet."
"Liu Yi had no choice but to compensate Han Feng for his losses with 15 men from Hu Fu, which allowed him to escape."
"But this morning, Liu Yi was found dead in his room by his maid."
Mo Ya reported the truth.
"what did you just say?"
"Was Madam Hu given to Han Feng by Liu Yi?"
Ji Wuye's eyes narrowed as he stared at Mo Ya, hoping he had misheard.
This Lady Hu was someone he planned to take from Liu Yi and give to Han An.
Now Mo Ya suddenly tells him that Madam Hu has been compensated by Liu Yi to Han Feng.
This was something Ji Wuye couldn't accept for a while.
"Yes, General!"
"Last night, Madam Hu was in Han Feng's hands, and I'm afraid her chastity is no longer safe."
Mo Ya's expression was certain.
bang~
Ji Wuye slammed his hand on the table.
"Liu Yi deserves to die!"
"Han Feng deserves to die!"
Ji Wuye's eyes were blazing with fury, filled with rage.
A while passed.
Ji Wuye's anger gradually subsided.
He looked at Mo Ya and asked, "Mo Ya, do you think Liu Yi was killed by Han Feng's men?"
Mo Ya pondered for a moment.
Then she raised her eyes to meet Ji Wuye's gaze and said in a low voice, "General, it is no longer important whether Han Feng did it or not. What is important is whether we can use Liu Yi's death to bring down Han Feng and kill him."
Mo Ya's eyes flashed with a cold light.
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuye's eyes lit up: "That makes sense!"
