Chapter 17 — My Two Sisters Pretended to Be Dead, Two Years Later, They Were Captured by Their Husbands

《Chapter 24》 Han Chi Thanh's work efficiency is extremely high. He is not a gangster. But after many years of working at Han Lam Institute, he had a group of extremely cautious guests under him. In just two days, they found the plotter's family. The strategist's name is Ngo Dai Nha. Ngo Dai Nha's mother lived in a small house in the south of the city. When Han Chi Thanh's men arrived, the old lady was drying radishes in the yard. Hearing that her son had crashed his head into the wall, the old woman frantically beat her thighs.

"That useless boy, Lord Phung says he will do whatever he says, even his life will be used to bear the blame for others."

"What did Master Phung say to him?"

"He said that if he succeeded, he would give him three thousand taels of silver."

"Three thousand taels."

"Our whole family can't earn anything by farming for the rest of our lives."

"He left voluntarily?"

"Volunteer for what?"

"Master Phung said that if he doesn't go, he will report the fact that he secretly took official documents from the temple to the Penal Department."

"He's afraid of going to jail, so he has no other choice."

This testimony was recorded verbatim by Thuy Binh and then confirmed by fingerprinting. In addition to two other witnesses that Han Chi Thanh found, in just three days, a complete series of testimonies was assembled. Dich finished reading the entire testimony and nodded.

"Plus previous bribe books, secret letters and evidence proving that Quy Van's brand is clean..."

"Putting it all together makes a complete chain of evidence."

She sealed all the documents.

"Tomorrow morning's adoration will be presented by Prime Minister Han to His Majesty."

The guy turned to look at me.

"Sister, I still need you to do one more thing."

"Tomorrow morning, right at the time of the adoration, there will be a group of people coming to the palace gate to offer Van Dan Thu."

"What Van Dan Thu?"

"In the past two years, the Quy Van brand has provided relief, distributed porridge, built bridges, and repaired roads in all continents. The people who have received favors are not few. In the past few days, Thuy Binh has contacted several districts near the royal capital, the relatives and people there are all willing to sign to return justice to Mr. Quy Van."

"Aren't they afraid of revenge from Lieutenant Phung Thai when they do that?"

"Even Phung Thai Lieutenant can't keep his daughter, who else can he take revenge on?"

My sister gave me a letter.

"The matter of Van Dan Thu has been arranged by Thuy Binh. You don't need to worry. Your mission is to go to Phung Palace before the adoration tomorrow morning."

"What are you doing at Phung Palace?"

"Personally tell Phung Thiet Nguu that all his secrets have been exposed. Give him the last chance, to confess his guilt himself, to save the last bit of dignity."

I look at that sister.

"Do you think he will listen?"

"But you must let him know, it was his daughter who gave him this opportunity."

"He doesn't deserve that opportunity."

"But we deserve to make our own choices."

There is no hatred in her eyes. There is also no forgiveness. There's just one thing that I can't name. That's called maturity. 《Chapter 25》 It's not yet dawn, I've already arrived at Phung Palace. The two family members guarding the gate still recognized me and tremblingly opened the door. Phung Phu is much more deserted than in my memory. Half of the lantern in the hallway was missing and no one had replaced it. The grass in the yard has grown up to head height pillow. The servants bowed their heads and hurried back and forth. Seeing me, everyone is like seeing a ghost. My father sat on the Grand Master's chair in the main hall. In front of him was a small square table that had just been brought in as a temporary replacement, with a jar of wine on the table. Compared to the last time we met, he had aged a lot. The sides of his sideburns turned white, and his eye bags were as deep as slits. Seeing me enter, he tilted his head and took a sip of wine.

"Come to be a guest speaker?"

"Come and tell him."

I stand before him.

"Today, during the adoration, Prime Minister Han will present all evidence of his bribery to the Holy King."

"Among those evidences are your secret letter, the bank's transaction book, Ngo Dai Nha's testimony, and even clues from the Marquis of Thua An's palace. Not a single thing is missing."

"At the same time, outside the palace gate there will also be Van Dan Thu offered, to return justice to Mr. Quy Van."

"After the court ends, your accusation of 'colluding with the enemy and smuggling' will turn into a joke."

My father held the cup of wine without saying a word.

"My sister told me to bring you something."

"If today you would personally confess your guilt and admit to the bribery, the Saint would respect that you have devoted many years to serving the court. Perhaps he would only be removed from his position and sent back to his hometown."

"But if you still stubbornly resist, wait until His Majesty sees all the evidence and then judge the crime yourself..."

"Then it won't just stop at dismissal."

My father slowly raised his head. He looked at me. Facial expressions are extremely complex. There is outrage.
