Chapter 137: Murder by mistake
"What kind of clan is this, it's just scum." One of the salt merchants had heard of the name of the Xue family, and glanced at Xue Wenhan as if he was provocative: "If you lose the gambling, you lose, why do you have such a big fire?" The second son is such a big person, he can't afford to lose, right? ”
"Bad seeds!"
"The Xue family's face has been thrown into you!"
Xue Wenhan listened to the cynicism of the three of them, and couldn't help kicking the table away in anger.
He'd just kicked the table open. One of the sharp-eyed salt merchants looked at Xue Wenhan and shouted, "I'll just say how did you start winning all the time, you will lose this time!" It turns out that you've been making a lot of noise! Come and see, this is the so-called son of the family! What a shame!"
As soon as the salt merchant's words fell, there was an uproar in the hall. The eyes of everyone looking at Xue Wenhan were full of disdain, originally Xue Wenhan had always been generous in Jinguyuan, even if he lost, he never relied on anything, and there were many people who were willing to gamble with Xue Wenhan.
I didn't expect such a situation to happen now, which surprised many people. Xue Wenhan was slightly stunned, and when he reacted, he immediately scolded the salt merchants.
"Fart, when did the master come out!"
"Tell me what's under your feet, then!"
The noise downstairs came into the private room on the third floor, and they all poked their heads out to see the excitement. Xie Yaoguang stood up and held a fan, and a trace of coldness slipped through his eyes.
"It must be that you see that I just won the success, so I framed it!" Xue Wenhan didn't wait for the other party to answer, picked up the vase on the side and threw it at the other party's head.
The salt merchants were ruffians and nimbly avoided the vases thrown at them. Seeing that Xue Wenhan was provoked by himself, he immediately reprimanded: "Yo, you didn't say a few words before you became angry?" What the hell are you...... I've heard that there is a rule in Jinguyuan that people who come out of the crowd will have their fingers chopped off!"
"You're only a good guy!" Xue Wenhan rebuked angrily.
Xue Wenhan, who was angry, could not manage so much, and the whole person pounced directly on the salt merchant who was the leader. The two scuffled together, fighting indiscriminately, but smashed the furnishings in the Golden Valley Garden to pieces.
"Xie Yaoguang! You...... You....... The door of the private room was kicked open, and a cyan figure rushed in front of Xie Yaoguang, "Why don't you go to your territory if you want to make trouble!"
"Senior Brother Xi, you won't be so stingy, right?" Xie Yaoguang raised his hand to cover his face with a fan, and said with a deep smile.
The woman in green behind Xi Daohui stepped forward and bowed, "Green beads meet Miss Xie." ”
"No need to be polite." Xie Yaoguang raised his eyebrows and motioned for Suzaku to help the person up, and then raised his head and glanced at Xi Daohui, "Your losses today can be counted on my head, and I won't repay the debt." ”
Xi Daohui snorted coldly, ignoring her, but patiently watching the play with her.
The two men were still scuffling together, and after a while, both of them had colors on their faces. Xue Wenhan touched a copper kettle in a random manner, picked it up, and smashed it on the head of the salt merchant who was scuffling with him. The salt merchant had no time to dodge, and was hit on the head by the copper kettle, and after a moment his eyes fell to the ground.
The gang screamed when they saw this scene. Xue Wenhan was already panicked when he saw this scene, and he pulled out his legs and ran out.
"Someone has killed someone!"
Xue Wenhan listened to the shouts of the people around him, and his head was already in a panic. didn't care about anything else, and ran out of the crowd one by one.
Xie Yaoguang's gaze moved away from the dead salt merchant and landed on Xue Wenhan's figure as he ran farther and farther away, and snorted coldly.
"Really...... Bad luck! Xiao Xie, I know that you have a pair of dust beads hidden in your hand....... Xi Daohui swept the eyes of the person next to him dissatisfied, and scolded: "You might as well give me that!"
"It's up to you, it's up to you." Taking the tea handed by Lu Zhu, Xie Yaoguang smiled.
Zhuo Jing walked from outside, and when he saw Xi Daohui, he walked in and said in a deep voice: "Miss Xue Wenhan has taken the bait, what should I do next?" Would you like to go out for a while? ”
"You'll soon find out what to do. Pei Huai is going to have a headache again......" Xie Yaoguang closed the window and leaned on the soft couch with a low smile.
When Pei Huai received the news and rushed to Jinguyuan, he looked at the messy Jinguyuan with a sad face. Although he is not good at gambling, he knows that Jinguyuan is one of the largest treasury in the capital, and most of the people in it are some nobles.
Pei Huai, who knew that he was soft-spoken, naturally did not dare to interrogate those people one by one, so he had to interrogate the stewards and servants in Jingu Garden.
The steward was naturally afraid of causing trouble, so most of his answers were vague and did not hit the point at all.
"The play is almost over, and I, the main one, should also go on the stage to take a look." Xie Yaoguang smiled and said softly to Luzhu: "Luzhu girl, your tea-making skills are really good, no wonder Xi Daohui likes you." If you have time another day, why don't you come to Xie Mansion and sit? I'll talk to him about his preferences. ”
Lu Zhu frowned when he heard this, but did not answer.
Seeing that Xie Yaoguang was going to dismantle his own platform again, Xi Daohui pulled her up and pushed her out, for fear that Xie Yaoguang would reveal some of his troubles in front of his favorite beauty one step later.
Looking at Xi Daohui's embarrassed face, Xie Yaoguang hooked his lips and smiled, and walked out with Suzaku's hand as kind.
Just when Pei Huai was distressed, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xie Yaoguang walking down from the upper floor, and his eyes couldn't help but light up. His impression of Xie Yaoguang was not bad, and seeing Xie Yaoguang at this time was even more like seeing a savior, and he walked over quickly. Who would have thought that Xie Yaoguang would appear here so coincidentally.
"Why is it so coincidental, Master Pei is also here." Xie Yaoguang looked at Pei Huai with a smile, and Shi Ran pulled his lips with an inexplicable smile in his eyes.
"Well, someone came to report that there was a murder in the Golden Valley Garden. Won't I just come? Hey, it just so happens that Miss Xie is here, and I have something I want to ask Miss Xie. Pei Huai sighed as if annoyed, "Alas, these little things have to trouble Miss Xie...... I'm really sorry. ”
"Why is Lord Pei so polite, what you have done can be regarded as worrying about you. All I can do is do a small favor, so why bother? What do you want to ask, but it doesn't matter, I'll try to help you" Although Xie Yao's tone was polite, there was a detached smile on his face.
Pei Huai saw that Xie Yaoguang's attitude was particularly polite, and he didn't dare to slack off. After retelling the results of the incident as it was, he was secretly relieved when he saw Xie Yaoguang's expression.
"So that's the case, Zhuo Jing, I remember that you seemed to be downstairs at the time?" Xie Yaoguang turned his head to the side and asked Zhuo Jing in a low voice, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Then Zhuo Jing, tell Master Pei what happened downstairs just now." ”
"Yes"
Zhuo Jing told Pei Huai what he knew word for word, and Pei Huai listened to it. After thinking about it, I felt more and more embarrassed.
