Chapter 254: Arson

Xie Rongzhao looked at the door anxiously, while Chen Xia subconsciously moved closer to his master, and he didn't know when, he had an extra sword in his hand.

Li Si took a few courtyards, followed by a few crop men.

"Miss Qiyu, when the subordinates were patrolling outside, they found that these people were carrying copper oil, and when the subordinates arrived, they had already poured a bucket into the corner, which was the remaining barrels that could be poured in the future."

Three young people, looking dressed, don't look like peasant men.

Xie Rongzhao is now an official dependent, so naturally he can't know the law and break the law.

"Tie them up and send them to the Jingzhao Mansion early tomorrow morning, and keep them together with these evidences."

"Yes, miss."

As soon as Li Si responded, someone at the other end came to plead with tears in their eyes.

"Please raise your noble hand! This is my nephew who is not a good person, and he must have been provoked by someone to do such a thing, and I ask the eldest lady to spare him. ”

The one who came to shout was a middle-aged woman, Xie Rongzhao didn't recognize it, but Mama Wang on the side recognized it.

"Miss, she is one of the people who make trouble during the day."

Xie Rongzhao was surprised in his heart, and always felt that there was something strange here.

"Li Temple, lock them up, keep them tightly guarded, and no one is allowed to visit."

"Yes, miss."

Li Si and a few people escorted the three young people out, and the woman here cried and wanted to rush forward, but was directly blocked by someone.

"This lady, I don't know you, but this nephew of yours wants my life, I must know why, right? There is no murderer in the world who wants to kill people has been caught, and he can be released after you cry a few times! ”

This is really unkind.

The people in the village who came with him also pointed and pointed.

If it's a trivial matter of stealing chickens and dogs, it's just a matter of human life!

"Someone, send off."

It sounds good to say that it is a send-off, and Mama Wang directly ordered the person to be kicked out.

For such a big matter, the village chief was naturally called, but before he could speak, the door of the house was closed.

Early the next morning, Li Si and the others had already arranged for people to send the three people to Jingzhao Mansion, and when the woman came to plead again, they had already been escorted away.

Outsiders don't know, but Xie Rongzhao knows that this time the matter is not simple.

Those people had their hands and feet tied, their mouths were gagged with rags, and Li Si also found some poison from them, which made it difficult to believe that they had come on a whim to find fault.

Even the human and physical evidence were sent to Jingzhao Mansion.

Although it was sent to the government, it was impossible for Li Temple to leave it alone.

And Xie Rongzhao can also see that these people are clearly instructed by others, so what are the people behind the scenes? She's going to have to figure it out.

The poison was confiscated, and the three of them were beaten by the board, but no one confessed anything, and Fu Yin had no choice but to temporarily take them into custody and retry them another day.

Somehow, the news reached the Marquis of Weixin's mansion.

Zhao Heng had the intention to send someone to investigate, but he was still young, and there were really capable people in the house, so he didn't move, so he simply went to ask his good father.

Zhao Yue was also taken aback, he didn't expect that someone would dare to poison Xiao Lingbao, and he set fire to it in the middle of the night, which is not a trivial matter.

Zhao Yue sent his son away and went to Xie Mansion to ask in person.

Xie Rongzhao didn't hide it from him, and told him everything about it.

Zhao Yue looked her up and down, this girl is really lucky, otherwise, there is a real chance that something will happen.

"Who have you offended lately?"

Xie Rongzhao was stunned, she has always adhered to the belief of being kind to people and interacting with people, and she really doesn't know when she will offend people.

And if she thinks about it carefully, she doesn't have many friends in the capital, Zhao Ying is counted as one, Wang Yinuo of the Dingguo Mansion is also counted as one, and there are others, but they are just nodding friends, they are really not friends, and they are definitely not enemies.

"Look at you like this, you should have offended people without knowing it. Does your embroidery shop rob other people's business? ”

Xie Rongzhao shook his head: "There shouldn't be, Uncle also knows, most of the business in my embroidery village is the business of some ordinary people, the profit is small, and many big merchants can't look down on it." ”

Several big embroidery villages in the capital, which are only for the business of dignitaries and nobles, one or two pieces of embroidery, you can earn dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver, how can her small embroidery village be compared?

Xie Rongzhao runs an embroidery village, firstly, he has nothing to do to pass the time, and secondly, he also thinks that he can do something for the family with his own hands, and he does not make too much profitable money, which also takes into account his father's official reputation.

Now Xie Xiuwen's official rank has reached the fourth grade, and there are a lot of money every year, plus there are so many granges, so he naturally has no worries about eating and drinking.

As for the shops, Liu Ruolan has only let people get these two now, and one of them is still opened under the guise of making a dowry for Xie Rongzhao in the future.

The rest of the shops are rented to merchants, and they can also make a profit of hundreds of taels of silver a year.

Zhao Yue also thinks that Xie Rongzhao will not lie, there is no need.

"Don't worry about this matter, I will arrange someone to find out, but it is estimated that there will be no result from Jingzhao Mansion, and there is a good chance that these three people were pushed out to be used as gunmen. The three of them are afraid that they don't know anything at all, but they simply see the money. ”

In this regard, Xie Rongzhao also thinks so.

Last night, when Li Si used a knife to scare them, he only said that he had received other people's money to do things, and he had received a total of fifty taels of fixed money, and the balance of one hundred taels had not been given.

When I asked who gave the money, they couldn't tell me.

Obviously, the people behind it had expected this to happen.

The matter ended without a problem, Xie Rongzhao only felt that his heart was suffocating, but there was no other way.

After several young men of the Xie family heard about this, they naturally persuaded her to go out less in the future, and even if she went out, she couldn't stay outside.

And Xie Rongzhao thought of Xiuzhuang.

The copper oil was indeed splashed on the courtyard wall of Zhuangzi, but it was splashed on the West Cross Courtyard, which is now under the wall of Xiuzhuang, so the real purpose of the other party is to burn the people in the embroidery village?

There are one and two of these, and Xie Rongzhao is naturally not at ease.

"Uncle Temple, please go again. Tell Zhuang Tou to let him arrange people to patrol at night, not only in the house, but also outside Zhuangzi, and say that my idea is to give each person an extra silver or two of hard-earned money next month. ”

"Yes, miss."

There are a lot of long-term workers in Zhuangzi, dozens of people, ten or eight people are drawn out every day to patrol, and they only take turns once in a few days, and they have money to take, and those who don't do it are fools!

Li Si was just about to leave, but he came back and asked, "Do you want to talk to the village chief?" Do you want them to pay more attention in their own village (end of this chapter)
