Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

If Tang Qizheng had not heard how he had plotted against Lin Su with evil ambitions, he might have believed what he said.

After all, he has had a good reputation in Suzhou City over the years.

He gave porridge to the people, donated money to support the army, and even spent a lot of money to build the largest academy in Suzhou City, Cangcang Private School.

Many students highly praised him and respectfully called him "Mr. Xie".

What a kind-hearted man Xie is! He got all this by relying on the weak and innocent Lin Su.

He is such a black-hearted person!

Tang Qizheng sneered sarcastically: "Mr. Xie, do you remember what you did before you took over the Xie family's business?"

Xie Duanfang replied guiltily, "How could I not remember? I have been bedridden in the backyard for a long time. It was only by chance that I received the medicine from a famous doctor that I gradually began to feel better. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Xie family's old servants to see whether what I, Xie Duanfang, said is true or not!"

Tang Qizheng glanced at Lin Ran, and he said in a cold voice: "Just do as he says and find someone to prove his identity!"

Soon, several old servants of the Xie family were invited over.

One of the white-haired elders was holding the Xie family genealogy in his hand. He knelt respectfully on the ground and said, "Your humble servant pays respects to the Commander!"

Tang Qizheng nodded: "Mr. Xie, you are the elder of the Xie family. You should be very clear about Xie Duanfang's identity, right?"

Elder Xie replied, "He is the eldest son of the side branch of the eldest wife's family. His name is Xie Duanfang. He has been weak since childhood and has been recuperating in the backyard for many years. He only appeared in public after he recovered his health!"

Tang Qizheng asked in surprise, "So, while he was recuperating in the backyard, no one ever saw his true face?"

Mr. Xie didn't say anything, but looked at several old servants.

They quickly said, "We have seen him before, and we can confirm that the head of the family is the eldest son!"

Lin Yiwan's heart skipped a beat. She was sure where the human skin mask on this person's face came from. She was afraid that the real Xie Duanfang was already in great danger.

She quickly asked, "Everyone, think carefully. Besides his appearance, what other characteristics can easily identify the real Xie Duanfang?"

Everyone looked at her: "Who are you?"

Tang Qizheng quickly introduced, "This is Lin Yiwan, the wife of the current Marquis Zhan Yi. She's here to investigate the old case where Lin Su and Xie Qian were chased by bandits and jumped off a cliff!"

Although they didn't know how noble the Marquis's wife was, they were in awe of her when they saw how much Tang Qizheng valued her.

Elder Xie spoke first: "I watched Duan Fang being born. He's just an ordinary child, without any unusual characteristics!"

Lin Yiwan urged: "Think about it again, for example, is there a birthmark or something?"

Xie Duanfang couldn't bear to listen any longer. He said coldly, "Are you determined to pin the blame on me? My old servants have already testified for me, and you still refuse to believe it?"

Lin Yiwan said quietly, "God is watching what you do. You know exactly what you've done. Aren't you afraid that in your dreams, the souls of those who died unjustly will come to seek revenge on you?"

Xie Duanfang frowned and glared at her, a hint of coldness inexplicably seeping from his back.

At this moment, an old servant suddenly remembered and said anxiously, "The eldest young master had a birthmark on his back when he was born, but after he fell off the bed and broke his back, it's no longer visible!"

Xie Duanfang raised his chin proudly. He didn't believe that they could find any more omissions.

Tang Qizheng's expression was also grim and ugly. If he couldn't find evidence as soon as possible, he really couldn't hold Xie Duanfang accountable.

If the students in the academy cause trouble, the consequences will be disastrous.

Thinking of this, he quickly instructed his subordinates: "Surround the Xie Mansion tightly. Don't let anyone escape to tip off the enemy!"

Before the subordinate could say anything, a guard came running in to report, "Sir, the students of Cang Cang Academy have been gathered at the gate of Xie Mansion by the teachers, and they demand that you give them an explanation!"

Tang Qizheng was immediately furious. If he had been a step slower, all the students would have gotten the news.

He gritted his teeth and said, "How dare they, are they planning a rebellion? And how dare they gather at the gate of Xie's house?"

The guard replied tremblingly, "They demand the release of Patriarch Xie and the severe punishment of the perpetrators who bullied him. They want an explanation for the Xie family and the people of the entire city!"

Tang Qizheng's expression suddenly turned serious. He quickly walked over to Lin Ran and said, "I'll take someone out to deal with the situation for a while, but you have to prove Xie Duanfang's identity as soon as possible, otherwise, it will be very troublesome!"

Lin Ran's cold gaze fell on Xie Duanfang, and he replied softly without leaving any trace: "Yeah!"

Perhaps knowing that reinforcements were coming, Xie Duanfang looked more calm.

He said calmly, "I advise you to retreat quickly. Otherwise, you will be cursed in Suzhou City. Why bother?"

Lin Yiwan slowly approached him and threatened in a low voice, "In this world, fake is fake. No matter how genuine it is, it will eventually reveal flaws. I don't believe you can be flawless!"

When Xie Duanfang met those terrifying eyes, he inexplicably felt guilty.

He angrily demanded, "What are you going to do?"

Lin Yiwan uttered through gritted teeth, "Of course we're going to search the house!"

Xie Duanfang was so angry that he jumped up and down: "You dare to search one and try. Without the owner's permission, what right do you have to search the house privately?"

Lin Yiwan interrupted sarcastically, "Even if you really are Xie Duanfang, you just tried to burn me to death with a fire stick, so you can't escape the blame. A search of the mansion is justified!"

"You!" Xie Duanfang was so angry that his face turned ashen and the veins on his forehead bulged.

Lin Yiwan personally led people to search the house, focusing on Xie Duanfang's study.

She searched inside but found nothing.

An incense stick of time had already passed when Ying Yi hurried in from outside and said, "Madam, haven't you noticed yet? The commander is almost overwhelmed, and many students are trying to break into the mansion!"

Lin Yiwan paced back and forth and said, "Wait a minute, let me think about it. I always feel that there is a mechanism in his study, but I can't find the entrance at all!"

Ying Yi reminded: "Madam, even if Xie Duanfang is being stubborn, his wife should at least know who the person next to her is, right?"

Lin Yiwan suddenly woke up. Yes, isn’t there still Luo Yudie?

How could she forget Xie Qian's accomplice?

She quickly ordered someone to drag Luo Yudie into the study, and she was so scared that she trembled all over.

She held her head tightly and repeated the same sentence over and over again: "It's not me, don't look for me, go away, don't touch me!"

Lin Yiwan raised her hand and grabbed her hair, causing her tears to immediately come out due to the pain.

She begged in a trembling voice: "Please let me go, I don't know anything, wuwuwu!"

Lin Yiwan said contemptuously, "You still want to act crazy and stupid in front of me? Do you think I'll fall for it? Huh?"

She quickly took out a silver needle and stabbed it directly into her eye.

"Ah, it hurts so much!" Luo Yudie cried heart-wrenchingly.
