Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Now, who dares to say that there is no ghost in the mansion?

Last time it was chickens and ducks, this time it was dogs, so will it be humans next time?

Longkodo was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He thought that the bad guys would not stop easily, so he had people on high alert, but they still succeeded.

Longkodo didn't care that arresting people for no reason would cause panic. He just wanted to control all suspicious persons.

But at this time, Tong Guowei came to call Longkodo again.

Longkodo thought Tong Guowei was not satisfied with his progress, so he said as soon as they met: "My son has an idea. Please give me some time. I will definitely catch the man."

If only it were that simple, Tong Guowei sighed, "The Emperor came to me today regarding the Tong Mansion's affairs."

----------Qianqing Palace---------------------------

Liang Jiugong brought Tong Guowei to meet Kangxi.

Tong Guowei sat on one side, and there was hot tea and fresh snacks on the table. Kangxi was still reviewing memorials at his desk.

After Kangxi finished replying to the memorial in his hand, he looked up and said to Tong Guowei, "I heard that things are not going well at your uncle's house these days?"

Tong Guowei was still working on a draft in his mind, thinking about how to answer if Kangxi asked him about this, and how to respond if he asked about that. But he didn't expect Kangxi to ask about his family.

Seeing Tong Guowei standing there in a daze, not knowing how to respond, Kangxi signaled Liang Jiugong to give the thing to Tong Guowei.

This is a thick piece of paper, filled with all the rumors going on in the capital these days.

The third master of the Tong family was blinded by lust and favored his concubine over his wife. He even allowed his concubine Li Si'er to abuse his first wife. Little Hesheli lived a life worse than death. Fortunately, God had eyes and turned little Hesheli into a fierce ghost after her death.

First, he took revenge on Li Si'er by aborting the baby in her belly and turning the baby into his own ghost. Then, he slowly accumulated strength and took advantage of the seventh day after the baby's death to kill chickens and ducks to see blood. Then, on the second seventh day, he killed dogs that could see dirty things. What happened next? I'm afraid someone would die!

After reading this vivid story, Tong Guowei slowly knelt on the ground and apologized to Kangxi.

Kangxi slammed the table in frustration, "What kind of women do we have in our family? For a concubine, he actually killed his wife! If you don't like it, just treat it as a dumb Buddha in your home. Now everyone knows about it, how will it end?"

Tong Guowei looked helpless, "You also know about the matter of Elundai from my eldest brother's family. How dare I teach Longkodo a lesson? I didn't expect that this kid was so confused that he made such a big mistake."

Orondai was the eldest son of Tong Guogang and had an extremely noble status. He was the eldest son of the eldest house of the Tonggiya clan, but he was unruly. Because he was dissatisfied with Tong Guogang's favoritism towards his stepmother and stepbrother Fahai, Orondai chopped his stepmother and beat and kicked his stepbrother many times.

Tong Guogang tried to overpower Orondei with his father's authority, but failed. Tong Guowei tried to persuade him as his uncle, but failed. Even Kangxi intervened and tried to pull strings between the father and son, but it was of no use.

After Tong Guogang died in battle, Orondei drove Fahai and his mother out of the house. It was only because Fahai had a talent for studying that he passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi in the 33rd year of his reign, otherwise he would have been wandering around somewhere unknown.

When Kangxi heard Tong Guowei talk about Orondei, he thought of the crown prince. Since Soetu's death, the crown prince had never shown any closeness to Kangxi again.

Kangxi was both sad and angry. Soetu had instigated the prince to rebel, but I only punished Soetu and did not implicate the prince at all. Why didn't the prince understand my painstaking efforts?

Kangxi understood Tong Guowei's fear of consequences. It was easy to deal with a child who had led him astray, but it would not be worth it if the relationship between father and son was damaged.

Therefore, Kangxi could only tell Tong Guowei, "This matter has been suppressed by me, but uncle should deal with it as soon as possible."

Tong Guowei nodded in agreement, returned to the Tong Mansion, and immediately summoned Longkodo.

Longkodo was really panicked this time. After all, Li Si'er's face really could not be seen by Kangxi.

Tong Guowei looked at the panic on Longkodo's face and issued an ultimatum, "Since the emperor is concerned about this matter and has helped us, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible and give him a satisfactory answer, understand? Longkodo."

It didn't matter who was behind it. The most important thing was that the Tong family had lost their reputation and face. If it was a loss of face for himself, he would be angry for a while and then it would pass. But if it was a loss of face for Kangxi, it would not be a matter of being angry for a while.

Longkodo looked at Tong Guowei pleadingly, "Father, I really like Li Si'er."

Tong Guowei just said expressionlessly: "Little Hesheli is not important, Li Si'er is not important, and Longkodo, you can also be unimportant."

Longkodo opened and closed his mouth and walked out of the room in a daze.

Longkodo came to the courtyard where Li Si'er lived. This was originally the residence of Xiao Hesheli, but Li Si'er liked the courtyard here because it was large and spacious. Anyway, Xiao Hesheli already had a place, so this courtyard naturally belonged to Li Si'er.

Inside the room, Li Si'er was beating and scolding the maid again. This was Li Si'er's normal state. She just liked to torture people. Longkodo liked to see the joy that naturally appeared on Li Si'er's face when she was committing violence.

But this time, listening to Li Si'er's cheerful laughter inside, Longkodo no longer had the same mood as before.

Longkodo walked into the house silently. Li Si'er had heard his footsteps a long time ago. As soon as Longkodo entered the door, Li Si'er said coquettishly: "Why are you standing outside and not coming in, Third Master? Do you want Si'er to invite you in?"

In the past, Longkodo would have hugged Li Si'er and coaxed him like a sweetheart. Longkodo just hugged Li Si'er gently and said nothing.

Li Si'er immediately put on a look of distress and concern, "What's wrong with Third Master? Did the master say something unpleasant?"

Longkodo's whereabouts were never hidden from Li Si'er. Li Si'er knew that Longkodo had just returned from Tong Guowei and thought that Tong Guowei had given Longkodo a favor.

Longkodo just touched Li Si'er's face lovingly, "Si'er, you love me the most, right?"

Li Si'er said affectionately: "Of course, Si'er loves Sanye the most."

Longkodo asked again, "Then Si'er, are you willing to die for me?"

Li Si'er cooperated and said, "I can do whatever the Third Master asks me to do."

But when he saw Longkodo taking out a white silk from his sleeve, Li Si'er's face changed, "Third Master, what are you going to do?"

Longkodo's face was calm as he comforted Li Si'er, "Si'er, don't tell me what I can do? Aren't you willing to die for me?"

Li Si'er's tears fell one by one, shaking Longkodo's mind, "How can you bear to let Si'er die?"
