Chapter 960: Chapter 960: Fear of Crime?_1

Jiang Yi took the evidence and flipped through it.

There were testimonials, account books.

Jiang Ning said, “There are also some physical evidences, which I’ll bring to you later.”

Jiang Yi laughed, “Our Jiang family doesn’t need these things to deal with these two people.”

“Brother, we can’t use our power to oppress others without reason. We should take action based on valid grounds.”

“Well, you have a point. I’ll take them then.”

Jiang Yi went to find Lord Huang with evidence that same night. After a severe beating, he threw the evidence onto his face.

Huang Ren was seething with rage, vowing to impeach Jiang Ruobai and Jiang Yi. Upon seeing the evidence, his face turned pale.

“This…”

Jiang Yi coldly said, “Huang Ren, for a mere piece of calligraphy, you had the owner of an obscure bookstore in Ding Alley murdered and dumped into the lake. Then you sent the killer back to his hometown, killing him halfway, making it seem like he was killed by bandits. You must think you have covered up this matter perfectly, haven’t you?”

Huang Ren was speechless and sweating profusely.

Jiang Yi snorted, “Do you deserve the ‘Ren’ in your name? Someone as ruthless as you, serving as an Imperial Censor in the great Sheng, God knows how many good men have died because of your advice! In my eyes, it is better for you to die.”

“Those were accidents! Accidents!”

Huang Ren’s forehead veins bulged as he demanded, “In my whole life, I have committed only one sin! What about you, the Jiang Family? How many evil deeds have you and your father committed, how many lives have you ruined? Dare you say?”

“I dare.”

Jiang Yi chuckled, “After all, there really are many people in this world who deserve to die.”

Stepping on Huang Ren’s head and crushing him to the ground, he watched his struggle, smiling, “I asked you to go to Lingshan Temple as a favor, as a face-giving, you not only didn’t appreciate it, but dared to plot against my sister? You are tired of living, aren’t you, Little Master will grant your wish.”

“No, I am an official appointed by the Imperial Court, you cannot do this!” Huang Ren cried out in fear, “Jiang Yi, I don’t believe that your Jiang Family can cover the sky with one hand! You remember, overdoing things is as bad as not doing enough, there will be a day when your wrongs will be righted!”

Jiang Yi withdrew his foot and said indifferently, “Stop saying these useless things. Hand over the illicit gains you have acquired through improper means. Little Master may consider sparing you.”

Huang Ren realized at this point that the Jiangs were now in possession of the evidence of his crimes. He would have to give them whatever they wanted.

Wealth, after all, is external, as long as one is alive, it can be earned back.

Despite the extreme pain, Huang Ren still surrendered all the gold, silver, jewellery, calligraphy, and antiques he had collected.

Jiang Yi ordered his men to move the treasures and said cheerfully, “Wouldn’t it be good if you had done this earlier? It would have saved me a lot of trouble.”

The next day, Jiang Ning heard the news of Huang Ren’s suicide by hanging.

She immediately asked Jiang Yi about what happened and he explained everything to her.

“Who would have thought? The most upright Imperial Censor, turned out to have tucked away millions. With such parasites around, when will the people lead a better life?” Jiang Yi shook his head.

Jiang Ning looked at him, “Third Brother, did you kill Huang Ren?”

“No.”

Jiang Yi immediately denied, “Why would I kill him when I have already got the money? He committed suicide.”

“Since he has already been spared after losing his wealth, why did he commit suicide? There’s no reason at all.” Jiang Ning couldn’t figure out why Huang Ren committed suicide.

Jiang Yi thought for a moment: “Maybe he was shocked and scared that his wrongdoings were discovered and chose to commit suicide out of guilt.”
