Chapter 1743: Chapter 1637: Pressing for Answers
A lot of people who originally sided with Song Ergou suddenly shifted their stance towards Song Kunlun. Why? Because the evidence is irrefutable!
Yin Gui said it was Song Ergou who forced him to threaten Song Kunlun. And that contract in your hand, supposedly signed by Yin Gui and Song Kunlun, was proven to have a forged signature, which ans Song Ergou is likely trying to falsely accuse soone!
Linking this matter with what Song iqin said before about Song Ergou coercing Mr. Song, it seems possible that Song Ergou might have also coerced Mr. Song!
"What’s going on, Ergou, explain this to ..."
Song ifeng, who had always stood by Song Ergou, looked at Song Ergou in disbelief and said, "Ergou, tell , what Kunlun said, it’s all false!"
"Of course it’s all false!" Song Ergou said in a low voice, "I also don’t understand why so much evidence has been overturned, but Aunt, believe , I would never defa a fellow family mber. There must be so mystery here! I’ll find out what’s behind this and will definitely give you an explanation."
"Really..." Song ifeng asked, half doubting.
"Absolutely...!" Song Ergou nodded, "I will definitely find and expose the person behind all this!"
Things started to look unfavorable for Song Ergou as they had already debunked his evidence. Although they couldn’t produce much conclusive evidence themselves, they at least proved you were faking it, leading many to think, were your previous actions also fake?
The entire hall was filled with a not-so-good atmosphere.
"Song Ergou, you heartless creature, you hard my son and want to harm my brother. What grudge do I have with you to make you treat
this way? Song Ergou, you will get your retribution!" Song iqin began crying again, showcasing her village woman traits with tears and snot.
"Song Ergou, do you have anything else to say?" Song Kunlun asked with a composed deanor, looking at Song Ergou.
"I have nothing to say."
Song Ergou stated, "There must be sothing wrong here."
"Of course there’s sothing wrong here, you forced Yin Gui to defa , how will you resolve this issue, you tell
yourself."
"This matter is my oversight!"
Song Ergou squinted his eyes and said, "Though I don’t know exactly where it went wrong, regardless, the direction of the matter is unfavorable for . So, even though I didn’t do what Yin Gui did, I cannot shirk responsibility for its occurrence. Therefore, let the family mbers decide how to deal with . Aunt, I now hand the authority of the Family Head to you, for you to handle this matter."
"To ?"
Song ifeng was montarily stunned and said, "Ergou, you..."
"This matter was my own oversight; I’m already involved, so it’s not right for
to handle it. You handle it," Song Ergou replied, "Handle it however you deem appropriate."
"Okay then." Song ifeng hesitated and said, "Now, I will act on behalf of you as the Family Head."
"I appreciate it!" Song Ergou nodded respectfully.
"Hmm!"
Song ifeng nodded, stood up, and said, "Regarding the previous allegations against Song iqin, Song Dong, and Song Kunlun colluding with outsiders to harm family mbers, as the evidence has now been overturned, Song iqin and Song Dong will resu their positions, Song Kunlun will resu his status as a Song Family mber, and the family agrees to provide certain compensation. iqin, Dongzi, you are now temporarily cleared of suspicion."
"Humph, I told you, I didn’t do any of those things."
Song Dong snorted coldly and said, "Those things were other people’s slander against , slandering ! Everyone sees now? I’ve been slandered."
"Dongzi, stop talking!"
Song iqin glared and then said, "Additionally, based on the current evidence, Song Ergou is suspected of slandering family mbers. The family has decided to temporarily strip Song Ergou of his main branch status, while also stripping Song Yun of his main branch status. The family will form a joint investigative team to look into this matter. Ergou, Song Yun, do you have any objections?"
"No objections."
Song Ergou shook his head.
"I have no objections either."
Song Yun said calmly.
"Alright, now I’ll question Yin Gui!" Song ifeng said, looking at Yin Gui in the center of the hall and asked, "Yin Gui, are you certain it was Song Yun who threatened you to slander Song Kunlun?"
"I am sure!" Yin Gui nodded.
"If you lie even half a word, according to the Song Family rules, you will be punished with lighting the sky lantern. Do you stand by your statent?" Song ifeng squinted her eyes, looking at Yin Gui.
Yin Gui gulped, glanced slightly at Song Kunlun beside him, and said, "I stand by my statent."
"Alright, recount the events of that day in detail..." Song ifeng said.
"That day, it was in an ancient town near SH. People might not know, but I love to wander around, and in that town, I encountered Song Yun. Sohow, Song Yun recognized
and wanted
to help him defa Song Kunlun, promising
a large reward, even granting
Song Family mber status. I refused but he forced
with violence as I couldn’t defeat him, so I could only comply. Later, I was brought into the Song Family and acted according to Song Yun’s arrangent." Yin Gui stated.
"Oh, so according to what you said earlier, Song Yun did not let you go or give you rewards after fulfilling your agreent, so you reported Song Yun?" Song ifeng asked.
"Yes." Yin Gui nodded, "Song Yun broke his promise and kept
detained, so I am exposing him today."
"That’s curious, since Song Yun broke his promise, why didn’t he deal with you sooner, silencing you completely, avoiding any accidents?" Song ifeng said.
"This... Mr. Song secretly protected , so Song Yun couldn’t act..." Yin Gui said.
"Oh? Brother protected you? Does that an brother knew you were forced by Song Yun?" Song ifeng asked.
"He knew, I secretly told him." Yin Gui said, "Then Mr. Song told
to stay put, saying he’d use
when he wanted to take down Song Ergou."
"Brother could easily take down Ergou, why would he need you?" Song ifeng asked.
