Chapter 576: Chapter 569 - Speak Up Already! _1
"Little Feng still remembers, the last time I saw my father, he held my hand and told me that from then on, I would be the pillar of our family."
"I don’t want to suffer in silence, nor do I want to marry and have children without understanding why. Living my life oblivious, and having my descendants carry the curse of dishonor. I will seek justice for the hundreds of my dead kin! Even if it means my life, Little Feng would willingly embrace it!"
"Sister, please grant Little Feng this favor!"
Night Tide Moon insisted on fleeing far and preserving the last bloodline left by their parents. Avenging could be postponed. However, Little Feng repeatedly declared that their parents’ wrongful cases must be cleared first before they could discuss other things.
The two almost came into conflict over this.
At last, seeing Little Feng’s stubborn face kneeling before her, Night Tide Moon almost cried herself unconscious.
Helpless, she thought about telling the truth. However, at this moment, her tongue felt exceedingly heavy and she could not bring herself to speak.
"So, you don’t want to say it? Or you’re not planning to say?"
Qin Yi’s face was stern. He nodded slightly, "Guards! Bind these two and gag them. Take them to a reputable middlewoman to sell. Tell her that they are runaway slaves who have committed a serious crime."
"Wait! We are not runaway slaves."
Looking anxious, Little Feng quickly pulled at Night Tide Moon’s sleeve, "Sister, what are you still considering? Just say it!"
"Alright, I’ll speak! I’ll..."
The aloofness of Su Pan’er, the pressing of Qin Yi, and the urging of Little Feng made Night Tide Moon forget Ponder’s existence as she fell to her knees.
"My original family name is Feng, and my name is Xiyue. I am the daughter of Deputy Minister Feng from the Ministry of Rites. He’s my younger brother, Feng Jiu. My father, an incorruptible official, despised corruption and was frequently praised by His Majesty. One year, His Majesty suddenly summoned him in the night and ordered him to investigate a case. He worked tirelessly and managed to uncover the case. He became agitated and short-tempered in those days."
"Suddenly one day, he was in high spirits. When he got home, he embraced Little Feng and laughed heartily, saying, ’No need to worry now!’"
"But out of the blue, disaster struck. An imperial decree shattered our peaceful life. It was a decree to condemn. It accused my father of inciting the former crown prince to rebel, calling it a heinous crime! He was directly taken to the Imperial Dungeon, waiting for the Court of Judicial Review."
"After father was taken away, my mother almost went mad. She inquired about it everywhere, but all her old friends shunned her. But one of my father’s former classmates told her the real situation."
Now known as Feng Xiyue, she spoke with a cold, distant expression, as though she were retelling the past of someone unrelated.
Su Pan’er listened quietly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Qin Yi seemed somewhat distracted as if he was thinking about something.
"It turns out that my father was tasked by His Majesty to investigate an odd case. From the start, he faced many obstacles. Eventually, he discovered that it linked to the Empress. My father realized that anything that involved the Empress would be extremely difficult to extricate himself from! Thus, that day, when his mood was down and alcohol was his companion, he muttered ’it takes the person who tied the bell to untie it.’"
"After knowing the truth, my mother sold all the family property and converted it into silver, then went to the Imperial Dungeon to visit my father. The Dungeon was not easy to get into. With great effort, and almost losing everything we had, she finally managed to take Little Feng and visit the Dungeon. My mother called me into the room and told me about an event. The Empress found out that her secret was exposed. Instead of confessing to His Majesty, she set up a trap and said that father was behind everything."
"My mother hanged herself the night she went to visit the Imperial Dungeon. The next day, the official errand arrived to seal up our house and found the so-called evidence to convict my father. All the maidservants, servants, and page boys were all taken away. Cause of father’s unfounded charges, they were all exiled for three thousand miles, and me and Little Feng were also sent away."
"Afterward, rounding and roughing many times, and struggling for my life, I still ended up becoming a pawn for others to profit."
Feng Xiyue finished speaking, then fell to her knees again, staying silent.
"Deputy Minister Feng? I think I’ve heard of him."
After pondering for a moment, Qin Yi started tapping the back of his hand on the table, "Let’s leave this matter for now until I have thoroughly investigated it. If what you’ve said is true, I will definitely bring justice for your father!"
Filled with joy, Feng Xiyue and Feng Jiu immediately knelt again and knocked their heads three times on the floor before Qin Yi, "Your Honor, don’t worry! If you can vindicate the Feng family, our lives from now on will belong to you."
"What do I need your lives for?"
The corners of Qin Yi’s mouth twitched slightly, "After the case is cleared, just do whatever my wife asks you to do! Remember, your lives were given by my wife!"
The two once again jointly bowed down to Su Pan’er.
"Thank you, ma’am!"
Su Pan’er lifted her head and looked at the two people indifferently, then flipped another page from her book "Why are you in such a hurry? Let’s talk about it after the case has been cleared."
The Empress’s power is overwhelming, and she is not to be trifled with. In the past, when their father was alive, they couldn’t deal with her. Now, without any evidence or witnesses, how could they easily bring her down?
Qin Yi suddenly asked another question, "Where are your indentures right now?"
Although Su Pan’er also had an indenture of Feng Xiyue, now, both of them have no illusions that the indenture is real.
"The indenture of ’your servant’ is with Lord Liu, and Little Feng’s indenture is in the hands of the leader of a mysterious organization. That organization behaves very strangely and its torture methods are horrifying. Initially, they retained Little Feng to control me. Then they sent me to Lord Liu. Unexpectedly, Lord Liu sent me to your side... "
Feng Xiyue muttered, appearing slightly afraid and couldn’t help but shiver.
"A mysterious organization? Where is this organization located? Have you ever seen the leader of this organization?"
Qin Yi immediately threw out two questions.
"When we were taken there, we were blindfolded. However, I’m certain it’s not far from the Capital City. Initially, we were taken away in a carriage, and we remembered as we traveled deeper into remote areas. Then we entered a cave to practice."
