Chapter 150: Brothers Against Brothers
Ye Chonggong is tall and burly, perhaps because of his perennial travels, his skin is a little tanned, and he looks not angry but mighty. As soon as he came back from outside, he heard that Ye Rou had been killed in the back mountain, which made him furious. After a look, a team of ironclad guards rushed up and surrounded Hong Yuan, wanting to tie Hong Yuan up.
"Liu Ruyan, Hong Yuan, what else do you have to say?" Ye Chonggong asked.
"Evidence. ”
Liu Ruyan's face was still calm, there was no trace of waves on his face, and he only said two words.
People inside and outside the Zhenyuan Hall talked a lot, some people said that they knew people and faces, but they didn't think that Hong Yuan was such a person, and many people echoed Liu Ruyan's words, and couldn't understand why Hong Yuan killed people.
"Second brother, call the witness you mentioned. Ye Chonggong commanded.
"Well, I've been waiting for a long time. ”
Ye Feilong clapped his hands, and a small handyman with a big hat on his head walked out of the crowd to testify against Hong Yuan in public. The wide hat covered his features, and the people all closed their mouths and quieted down, watching what the witness had to say, and secretly guessing his identity.
"See the Great Master. ”
The little handyman stepped forward and bowed, and then, at Ye Feilong's signal, he slowly took off the big hat on his head, revealing a face that surprised Hong Yuan very much. It was not Lin An, the eyeliner that his master planted in the ranch, who stood up to testify against him, but Yan Quanming, who kept claiming that he was a brother.
Ye Chonggong asked, "What's your name, what did you see last night?"
"Back to the eldest master, the little one is called Yan Quanming, and he ...... last night"
Yan Quanming swallowed, not daring to turn his head to look at Hong Yuan, "Last night, when I got up to relieve myself, I accidentally saw Hong Yuan kick open the back door leading to the back mountain, and went to the back mountain with a calm face. ”
People whispered, Yan Quanming didn't look like he was lying, he happened to live near the back door. Hong Yuan's heart also moved, and he vaguely remembered that when he kicked the door open, it seemed that he had alarmed someone.
"And then?" Ye Chonggong asked.
"It was dark and the wind was cold, and no one would go to the back mountain at that time, so I wondered. After a while, I heard a scream from the mountain, followed to take a look, and saw Ye Rou lying on the ground with her throat slashed, and Hong Yuan kneeling next to him with blood on his hands. Yan Quanming replied.
The people inside and outside the Zhenyuan Hall suddenly became in a commotion, pointing at Hong Yuan and discussing. Some people didn't believe that it was Hong Yuan's poisonous hand, but when they heard Yan Quanming say this, they couldn't help but believe it.
Hong Yuan was silent, the expression on his face gradually changed from surprise to indifference, looking at Yan Quanming, who used to call himself a brother, his eyes became colder and colder. Don't think about it, he also knew that this was Master Donald's idea, and he had long known that Donald Dog would not make himself feel better if he had a bad stomach, but what he didn't expect was that Donald Dog actually pulled Yan Quanming into the water and asked him to stand up and slander himself. In the Ye family's compound, many people know their relationship with Yan Quanming, and it is precisely because of this that Yan Quanming's words are more credible!
Ye Chonggong's face became even more gloomy, and he looked at Hong Yuan coldly, "Hong Yuan, what else do you have to say now?"
"There's nothing to say, and there's no excuse for the sin you want to add. ”
Hong Yuan sneered and looked at Yan Quanming who was standing next to him, "Yan Quanming, can you tell me, what benefits did Donald Dog give you?"
Yan Quanming lowered his head and did not reply, nor did he dare to raise his head to look at Hong Yuan, and bowed to the eldest lord Ye Chonggong and hurriedly stepped aside. Master Tang Fude's face turned red, and he was so angry by Hong Yuan's voice that Donald Dog tried his best to pretend not to care on the surface, but secretly he gritted his teeth in anger.
"Bold, tie this kid up for me!" Ye Chonggong was furious and slapped the armrest of the throne with one palm.
More ironclad guards rushed in, fully armed and drew their sharp swords to tie up Hong Yuan.
"Slow!"
Liu Ruyan snorted coldly, looked at Ye Chonggong and said coldly: "Master, what is Hong Yuan's motive, why did he kill Ye Rou? Even if there is a human witness, what about the physical evidence? What is the murder weapon that killed Ye Rou, and where is it?"
"It's very simple, I get carried away when I see sex! Covet Ye Rou's beauty, but the latter doesn't comply, so he simply kills her! Someone can prove that Hong Yuan has coveted Ye Rou's beauty for more than a day or two. ”
Ye Chonggong paused and said: "As for the murder weapon, with a human witness, is the murder weapon still heavy? For a master with strong knife skills, there is no need to have a knife in his hand, a branch, or even a leaf in his hand is a powerful killing weapon." I've just returned from a trip outside, but I've already heard that Hong Yuan happens to be a master of swordsmanship. Although he is not surnamed Ye, his sword skills are only afraid that they are already more powerful than any Ye family disciple of the younger generation, Liu Ruyan, you teach well!"
Ye Chonggong had something to say, and he preconceived that Hong Yuan was the murderer.
"Of course the murder weapon is important, without the murder weapon, how can you be sure that Hong Yuan is the murderer? Besides, the little handyman surnamed Yan just now only saw Ye Rou fall to the ground, and did not see Hong Yuan kill with his own eyes. Based on this alone, can we be sure that Ye Rou was killed by Hong Yuan?Who can guarantee that what that little handyman said is true?" Liu Ruyan questioned, catching the loopholes in Yan Quanming's words. His face was calm, it seemed that the sky was falling and he was not alarmed, and his tone was also calm, and he couldn't see the slightest anger and dissatisfaction, but his eyes were a little cold.
"This ......"
Ye Chonggong was a little speechless, and he had to admit that Liu Ruyan's words also made sense. Hong Yuan's motive for killing is there, and the human evidence seems to be there, but after careful investigation, there are still some places that cannot be explained.
"Liu Ruyan, then how can you be sure that Hong Yuan is not the murderer, and what guarantee do you have?"
Master Tang Fu suddenly stood up, looked at Ye Chonggong who was sitting on the throne and said: "Master, even if you can't cure Hong Yuan of capital crime at once, you have to tie him up and put him in the dungeon, and then slowly investigate to find clues." Otherwise, how can we pay tribute to Ye Rou's spirit in the sky?"
Seeing that Ye Chonggong was a little shaken, Tang Fu personally went out, and finally found the opportunity to kill people with a knife, and he definitely couldn't miss it. Just by virtue of Hong Yuan's voice just now, we must not let him go! Hong Yuan's cultivation is getting higher and higher, even to the point of terror, if we don't take the opportunity to get rid of him, maybe there will be no more chance!
"I can guarantee that Hong Yuan is definitely not a murderer, I guarantee with my life!"
Ye Tiangao suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Father, the murderer of Ye Rou can be anyone in the Ye family's compound, but it can never be Hong Yuan, and Hong Yuan can't kill her because he covets Ye Rou's beauty." I can swear in the name of the ancestor of the Ye family, and guarantee it with my life!"
There was an uproar inside and outside the Zhenyuan Palace, and the Ye family valued the family rules the most, thinking that it was the ancestors who were protecting the luck of the family. Swearing in the name of the ancestor of the Ye family, this is the heaviest oath of the Ye family's disciples, especially Ye Tiangao's extraordinary status, it is very likely that he will be the next head of the family, swearing in such a name, once Hong Yuan is confirmed to be the murderer of Ye Rou, his life will be over.
"Oh my God, you ......"
Ye Chonggong also didn't expect it, he didn't expect Ye Tiangao to suddenly stand up and say this, so he stood up in anger and left with his sleeves up.
"Master, don't leave yet, ...... master"
Tang Fu was anxious, and seeing that the poisonous plan that was not easy to prepare was in vain, he was unwilling to catch up, and wanted to change his way to pour ecstasy soup into Ye Chonggong. It's a pity that Ye Chonggong is not the second master Ye Feilong, so he won't be embarrassed by him and obey his treacherous words, and he will ignore him and leave.
A menacing interrogation vanished.
"The eldest young master dares to say that, Hong Yuan must be innocent!"
"Of course, the third lady Ye Rou grew up with Hong Yuan since she was a child, and the relationship between the two of them is so good, how can it be Hong Yuan's poisoner?"
"It seems that someone is too good at Hongyuan, and all kinds of indiscriminate means have been used. ”
......
As people dispersed, they talked about it in twos and threes. In the past, the second lord Ye Feilong was in charge of the family, and when he covered the sky with one hand in the Ye family's compound, people didn't dare to say a lot of things clearly. Now, the eldest master Ye Chonggong is back, so he doesn't have so many scruples.
In the midst of people's discussions, Ye Feilong and Tang Fu's faces turned pale, and they left in a hurry surrounded by several entourages. The two of them were vicious with their intentions, but unfortunately, they didn't have time to carefully arrange many loopholes in a hurry, and they couldn't directly treat Hong Yuan's capital crime. In the end, it turned into a farce.
Liu Ruyan also left, leaving with a cold face, and soon, only Hong Yuan, Ye Tiangao and a few of his entourages were left in the Zhenyuan Palace.
Although he stood up at the critical moment to help Hong Yuan resolve the catastrophe, Ye Tiangao's face was cold and expressionless, looking at Hong Yuan's eyes as if he was looking at a stranger who had nothing to do with him, and even contained a deeply suppressed anger. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, several of Ye Tiangao's entourage also retreated and closed the door of the main hall.
Inside the main hall, the atmosphere became more and more heavy.
The power fluctuations in Ye Tiangao's body continued to rise, accompanied by a thick murderous aura.
