Chapter 70: Evidence and Death

Xu Yi didn't explain why he pinched Youxi, he just got up from the snow and calmly patted the snow off his body.

You Xi looked at Xu Yi's back resentfully, gritting his teeth and scolding him a thousand times in his heart.

The ten families on the ancestral tomb were also awakened by two explosions in succession, and when they saw the fire in the main house, they all brought water to save them.

Seeing this, You Xi also carried a bucket to get water to put out the fire.

An hour later, the fire was finally brought under control due to weather and manpower reasons.

You Xi sat in the snow with a tired butt, panting for breath.

Xu Yi, who also participated in the firefighting, frowned and glanced at You Xi, then pulled You Xi up, "Find a chair to sit on, what do you say in the snow." ”

You Xi made a grimace at Xu Yi's back, and he didn't continue to sit on the snow.

"Woo woo, husband, husband is out of breath......" In the pile of the You family, Mrs. You suddenly wailed and cried.

Since the fourth master of the You family was cleaned up by You Xi that day, because he has not taken medicine, he has always been sick and groggy and can't get out of bed.

Today, there was a fire, and the You family only cared about themselves in a panic, and the fourth master of You, who was not strong enough to act, was forgotten by them.

But fortunately, his strong will to survive allowed him to crawl out of the fire, but at some point, he collapsed by the pillar of the side room, and he never got up.

Now that the fire is extinguished, both You Xi and You Jia are relieved, and Mrs. You Si also remembered Mr. You, but I didn't expect that no matter how she called Mr. You, Mr. You Si didn't react.

The three children in the fourth room and the two concubines cried with the wail of Mrs. You.

You Xi looked at the few female children in the fourth room crying as if the sky had fallen, and she didn't come back to her senses until Xu Yi asked her to light the lamp.

"What are you going to do?"

"Collect evidence."

You Xi instantly understood, and hurriedly went to find the lamp and collected evidence with Xu Yi.

Nowadays, because there is no monitoring and DNA comparison technology, if a case occurs, but there are no eyewitnesses at the scene, and there is no strong evidence, the case is basically unsolved.

You Xi regretted a little, he didn't have the courage to come out and knock out a villain just now, so as to keep it as evidence.

However, You Xi seems to think too low about the ability of the people of the time to investigate the case, and the messy fire scene seems to be full of evidence in Xu Yi's eyes.

The blackened clay pots, the unburned wood, and the footprints left in the snow that had not been trodden by idlers were all collected by Xu Yi.

Xu Yi lit a lamp and was busy for a long time, and when he was free to swim in the stream, it was already dawn.

Over there, after the persuasion of the You family, Mrs. You Si had gradually stopped crying, but she seemed to have left with Mr. You, sitting in the snow without speaking or moving, and she couldn't even feel the cold.

"Think about who you've had a vendetta with lately." Xu Yi said.

These words made You Zhengming's heart empty, the You family used to be an official, and there were really a lot of enemies, but now the You family is unlucky, if anyone wants to retaliate, in terms of the current situation, it is really easy.

When You Xi heard Xu Yi's words, he also instantly thought of a person.

She pulled Xu Yi aside and asked in a low voice, "Do you think the Sixth Highness will be the arsonist?" ”

"Do you think that if you, as a victim, ask me who is the arsonist in the investigation of a case, and I will tell you for sure before the facts of the case are clear?" Xu Yiliang glanced at You Xi.

You Xi almost choked to death by that look.

Every time I want to be kind, this guy puts up a score.

"I just offended the Sixth Highness yesterday, and with the character and strength of the Sixth Highness, it is very likely that he is planning to set fire."

"Only offended yesterday?" Xu Yi asked quietly.

"......" You Xi felt that Xu Yi knew something, but no matter what, if she spread the matter that His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness did not raise, she would not say anything except for her mother.

"I was also offended the day I entered the palace to see the saint, and I was beaten by His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness that day, and now I am still injured, Xu Shaoyin, you were there that day, you should see how miserable I am." Swimming in the creek is sloppy.

"You still have injuries?" Don't blame You Xi for honestly handling the attitude of not being allowed to communicate with Xu Yi, and Xu Yi himself did not have a good attitude towards dealing with You Xi.

Just now, I looked solemn about my office work, but now I have switched states and taken the initiative to care about Youxi's injury.

"Of course, I am a mortal fetus in the flesh, how can I recover my injuries so quickly, do you want to find someone to examine the injuries, can you convict the Sixth Highness? If I can, I will fully cooperate. You Xi saw that Xu Yi was not looking at himself with that kind of strange eyes, and his heart was also relaxed.

Xu Yi didn't answer You Xi's words, but after noticing that her breathing had calmed down a lot, he staggered his eyes with her and went to find You's family.

Xu Yi asked the You family in turn if they had a grudge with anyone, and the You family all looked at You Zhengming, and You Zhengming couldn't say that he had a grudge against people in the past, so he had to vaguely say that he had not had any unhappiness with anyone recently.

Xu Yi couldn't ask anything when he saw it, so he put away the evidence and was about to leave.

Before leaving, he said to Youxi, "This place has been burned down, do you want to find another place to live?" ”

The Xu family, the former Weiguo Mansion, although it has also experienced turmoil and lost a lot of property, there are still idle manors under its name now.

"I just told Mrs. Mo yesterday morning that I was going to rent the Fan family's manor, but I didn't expect to move there today."

You Xi looked at the fire room that had been unrecognizable with regret, there were still her vegetables planted in it, vegetables that could be harvested soon, and she was originally going to send some to Fan's house for General Fan and Mrs. Mo to try, but now they have all turned to ashes.

"Then I'll go to General Fan and talk to him when I go back, and ask him to send some people to help you." You Xi already has a place to go, so Xu Yi didn't say his plan.

"Thank you." You Xi blessed Xu Yi.

Xu Yi also owed a salute, and the two sides were staggered.

You Xi watched Xu Yi leave, and there was a cry on the other end of You's house.

The two children in the fifth room who are just three years old don't seem to be very good.

The two children were both concubines, and their biological mothers hugged them separately, crying and begging the fifth master and Mrs. You and You Zhengming to come up with money to ask the doctor to treat the two children.

The You family is actually rich, but the money is in You Zhengming's hands, but they have been in the ancestral tomb for a few days, except for the second day when You Xi and You Jia settle accounts, You Zhengming asked You Yu to take some money as an apprenticeship fee to You Xi, and they haven't spent it.

I don't know what You Zhengming is going to do with the less than one hundred taels of silver, he picked the door, even when he was so embarrassed by You Xi's accounting, he didn't take out the money, as for You Si Ye was sick, in addition to the two concubines of Mrs. You Si and You Si Ye also cared about You Si Ye, You Zhengming seemed to have treated him as if he was a dead man, and he had never looked at it.
