Chapter 135: The Case of Human Murder
In the afternoon, Yuan Xi returned to the Assassin's Mansion with a group of people, and Han Yan and Li Ru immediately greeted him with stern expressions.
"What the hell is going on?" Yuan Xi frowned slightly and asked, he had just left for a morning, and the entire Su County was already full of messages, and everyone was talking about the second child of the Yu family.
He is still clear about this jade family, although he is one of the three powerful people in Suxian and even Youzhou, but he is quite respectful to him, and he is very peaceful, on the first day of his arrival, not only personally greeted, but also immediately sent a lot of money, grain and grass, he also personally met with the head of the Yu family, Yu Hao, is a relatively calm person, how could such a thing suddenly happen.
"Yu Gongzi, here's the thing, Yu Kun, the second eldest of the Yu family, is usually romantic, and he is full of flowers and grass, and recently fell in love with a girl named Xiaorou in Su County, and tried every means to pursue it, but I don't know why, just three days ago, this girl suddenly died inexplicably, and on the same day, someone happened to see Yukun appear near Xiaorou's house, and there was blood on his body, and the whole person looked in a hurry, and the girl's father was this one daughter, I heard that she was still picked up, and she loved it very much, and now she died suddenly, Naturally, the pain was incomparable, and he angrily sued the Suxian Yamen, but the Yamen was afraid of the power of the Yu family, and did not dare to accept it, so he drove him out, and then he made trouble with the Yu family, and was arrested by Yu Rui, one of the commanders of the city guard, on the charge of framing the Shi clan, and after a few days of detention, he was released, and the whole person was already a little confused, and this matter happened to be known by a traveling scholar, the scholar was angry, and directly took the old man to stab the Shi Mansion and seek justice, because there were many people watching, so there was a lot of turmoilHan Yan elaborated carefully.
A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes, and he said, "What's that scholar's name?"
"His name is Xu Miao, a native of Suxian County, he is just twenty and three this year, he has an extraordinary conversation, a calm temperament, and it is especially rare to be a righteous person, Liang has talked to him, he is a talented, virtuous, and brave person" Li Ru, who had seen Xu Miao, immediately praised.
Yuan Xi nodded, and then said in a cold tone: "No matter what the truth is, immediately remove Suxian County Cheng from me, as an official in a place, in charge of justice, because he was afraid of the huge power of the other party, he didn't even ask clearly, and drove out the wronged people, so what does the official mean to stay, withdraw, withdraw immediately"
"No!"
"Also, let Jiao Touch lead the first battalion of the Iron Guards into the city" At this time, Yuan Xi's eyes suddenly flashed.
Han Yan and Li Ru were taken aback, knowing that Gongzi was the prestige of killing these scholars.
At about dusk, the entire Su County was still talking about the failure of the second child of the Yu family to courtship and kill innocent women, and for some reason, it became more and more intense, and it seemed that someone was secretly manipulating this turmoil.
In the north of the Thorn Mansion, there was a huge locust tree at the door, and in the huge, luxurious, and extraordinary mansion, there were bursts of angry scolding.
"Rebel, it's all your fault" I saw a middle-aged man with a dignified face and a gorgeous costume kicking the handsome boy kneeling in front of him to the ground, his face was extremely angry.
"Father, forget it, the second brother is also innocent" A tall, short-bearded, bright-eyed man in brocade clothes next to him hurriedly persuaded.
"Innocent, if he hadn't messed with flowers and grass every day, would he have caused such a thing? I've warned many times, don't set your eyes on women every day" The middle-aged man is really the head of the Yu family, Yu Hao.
"Father, I didn't kill Xiaorou, she was already dead when I went," Yukun explained painfully, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"You go and explain to the second son! Now that the city is full of turmoil, everyone's eyes are on this, that old man has entered the Assassin's Mansion, the second prince will never sit idly by, and will definitely take action" Yu Hao said with a worried face, others may still be in awe of their Yu family, but what is the status of the Yuan family, the lord of the north, the fourth and third dukes, the king of the scholar clan, whether it is reputation, strength, or status, it is far from what their Yu family can compete with.
"Father, is it so serious? Isn't it just an ordinary woman? Yu Rui said with some skepticism.
"It's only going to be more serious than this, Rui'er, you too, since you caught that old man, you shouldn't let him out, you should kill him immediately, now he has the blessing of the second son, and no one can move it, this matter seems small, but there is one thing you don't see, this is a great opportunity for the second son to pull fame" Yu Hao was very disappointed and said, this time it was all stabbed out, although the scholar clan is noble, but such a careless disregard for human life will be spurned, and the relationship between him and Yuan Xi may be destroyed in an instant, It's even worse.
"I don't want to let it go either, but" Yu Rui glanced helplessly at the kneeling Yukun.
"Father, Rou'er has died inexplicably, how can we kill his father" Yukun suddenly said anxiously.
"Bastard, if he doesn't die, it's our Yu family's bad luck, you idiot" Yu Hao said angrily.
"Master, master" At this time, an old man who looked like a housekeeper suddenly ran in in a hurry.
"Something's wrong," Yu Hao's pupils shrank.
"Oh no, not long ago, Yang Xiancheng of Suxian County has been replaced, replaced by a person named Lu Yu, and moreover, Jiao Touch, the general of the Iron Guard Army under the command of Gongzi, led a battalion of soldiers and horses into the city, and quickly took over the city defense," the housekeeper worried.
"What!" Yu Hao suddenly felt dizzy, and couldn't help shaking a few times, knowing that something was really going to happen.
"Father, father" Yu Kun and Yu Rui immediately worried.
"Quick, go find the master of the king, Yang Zhizhong, they have a deep friendship with me, maybe they can say a few words in front of the son, go quickly" Yu Hao said anxiously.
However, not long after the butler left, a group of well-equipped and murderous soldiers rushed into the Jade Mansion, surrounding the entire main hall, and Hu Niu'er's tall, majestic figure slowly emerged, with a terrifying deterrent.
"General Hu, what are you doing here" Yu Rui, who saw this scene, suddenly said angrily.
Hu Niu'er announced expressionlessly: "The second son of the Yu family has taken care of people's lives and caused a huge turmoil, and he will be escorted to prison immediately by the order of the son, waiting for the fate."
Yukun trembled all over, and said in fear: "Father, save me, save me!" ”
A trace of distress flashed in Yu Hao's eyes, and he hurriedly looked at Hu Niu'er and said, "General Hu, my son is innocent, I am willing to explain to my son"
"Of course, the head of the Yu family can explain, but Yukun must follow me today," Hu Niu'er said firmly.
The guards immediately prepared to step forward to arrest Yu Kun, when Yu Rui drew a long sword with a cold light from the side, and said angrily: "I see which of you dares"
A brave momentum of a military general immediately spread, he can become one of the commanders of the city guards, he is by no means a person with wine bags and rice bags, and the family of the Yu family also rushed over with weapons in his hand at this time, blocking in front of the guards.
Hu Niu'er frowned, and her eyes gradually sharpened, "Yu Rui, don't you still want to compare with a certain person, I already give you a lot of face."
Yu Rui had seen Hu Niu'er's terrible martial arts and knew that he was not an opponent, but he was still unwilling: "General Hu, my brother is innocent, he was framed, if it was true, I would have killed that old man a long time ago."
"Innocent or not, it's not up to you to say, it's up to evidence"
When Yu Hao heard this, he sighed, looked at the frightened Yu Kun and said, "Kun'er, if you go with them, your father will definitely prove your innocence."
"Father" Yukun was ashamed, with tears in his eyes, and finally left the Yu family slowly under the escort of the soldiers of the guard battalion.
"Father, how are you?" said Yu Rui anxiously.
"Do you think that a mere jade family can compete with the second son? Have you forgotten what happened at the gate of the city when the second son arrived? Yu Hao said with a serious face.
Yu Rui's face turned pale, and he remembered the scene where Yuan Xi beat Changshi Tianyu in front of the entire Suzhou County high-level and scholar clan, and coerced Taishou Xian Yufu, that domineering, that ruthlessness, it really made people's hearts tremble.
"Don't say anything, I'll go see the second son immediately, it seems that this time all the relationships of my Yu family will be used, and you go to prepare two thousand gold, three thousand loads of grain and grass, I hope so, you can exchange for your second brother's peace" Yu Hao tidied up his clothes and walked outside with a worried face.
