บท 129: The Seventh Disciple’s Thoughts

Zhu Honggong took half a step forward and continued, "I've never done anything unworthy of master ever since I left the Evil Sky Pavilion. When you asked me to investigate the kidnapping in the Ci Family, I investigated it thoroughly. Someone committed the crime using Tiger Ridge's name. We were framed!" 

"I didn't ask about your Little Junior Sister's kinsmen. Why are you taking a general comment as a personal attack?" Mingshi Yin asked.

"…" Zhu Honggong pulled a face and said, "I won't be able to clear my name even if I wash myself in the Yangtze River."

"That's enough. I know you weren't behind the kidnapping in the Ci Family. You're not that bold." Mingshi Yin rolled his eyes.

When Zhu Honggong heard this, he was overjoyed. He said in an attempt to flatter Mingshi Yin, "I knew you're the most sensible one, Fourth Senior Brother. Master didn't say anything, did he?"
