Chapter 332: The Case of Extermination

The queen knew the grievances between Su Ruoshui and Su Ruoyu, and they were really enemies called sisters. Now that Su Ruoyu is demented, she sent Su Ruoyu to the imperial womb for her to take care of.

Looking at the person you hate the most every day, surely you won't be in a good mood, right? If Su Ruoshui abuses Su Ruoyu and is caught by the queen, she will be a vicious woman.

In short, if you take care of Su Ruoyu well, Su Ruoshui will be uncomfortable. If you don't raise Su Ruoyu well, Su Ruoshui just doesn't care about family affection. If you can't do anything to her, it's good to add some blockage to her.

The queen immediately ordered someone to draw up an edict to let Su Ruoshui take care of Su Ruoyu for half a year, on the grounds that General Yu was busy with military affairs, and Su Mansion had lost Su Ruoyu, and only her sister was the most suitable to take care of her sister.

Ye Gu Yuanhong didn't resist, didn't he just add someone, as long as he didn't force him to take a concubine, it wouldn't be a big deal. "Rong Jin, you send her back to the Tai Womb first."

"Yes." Rong Jin looked at the sea of lanterns and asked, "Do I still need to come back?" ”

"Hurry back."

"Master"

"Not negotiable."

Rong Jin was like a deflated ball, pulled up Su Ruoyu and went down the city tower. Ye Gu Yuanhong looked at the lanterns, most of them were red, with a little gold, yellow, green, and white.

After about half an hour, Rong Jin rushed back, and Ye Gu Yuanhong asked, "How are things going?" ”

"Good." Rong Jin had no expression on his face, and he felt a little lost in his heart. If he hadn't been injured, tonight's task would have been for him to go, where would he get Xing Tianqi?

Rong Jin is a typical person who likes to kill people and set fires, and others' learn literary and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family. The pictures are all high-ranking officials, and what he is trying is a thrilling one.

Therefore, he did not choose to be a general, but chose to be a guard, or a shadow guard. If he hadn't been the prince's guard, he would have chosen to be a dart master or be the king of the mountain, anyway, there would be a fight, and he would be content to spend his career in the shadow of the sword.

When Ye Gu Yuanhong returned to the palace and had passed the child, Xing Tianlin sat on the embroidery pier next to the bed and quietly looked at the sleeping Su Ruoshui, Qingyun fell asleep on the soft couch, the wind and the moon sat outside, and Hui Xue fell asleep on the side of the bed.

Ye Gu Yuanhong waved his hand, Xing Tianlin woke up Hui Xue, and they retreated quietly. Ye Gu Yuanhong put down the bed curtain, took off his boots and lay down with his clothes, and fell asleep next to Su Ruoshui.

The next morning, Ye Gu Yuanhong got up early, cleaned up and refreshed, and went to the court without eating breakfast. The moon on the sixteenth day of the first month is said to be rounder than the fifteenth, Ye Gu Yuanhong looked up, oh, this is the sun.

Ye Gu Yuanhong's annual leave is until the twentieth day of the first month, and he can not go to the court, but the sixteenth day of the first month is the first day of the emperor's court after the year, and the civil and military officials attach great importance to it, as long as they can come on this day, they will come as much as possible.

Although yesterday was not a pleasant one, this morning the emperor still walked up to the Jinluan Hall refreshed. For the first time in a year, basically no one will report any bad things, they are all here to sing happy songs, pat sycophants, and sing praises of virtue. The emperor is also very official, saying a few words to encourage everyone to work hard.

There are strange things every year, and this year is especially many. This year seems to be an exceptional year, and there are people who stand up and make exceptions for everything. Yesterday's celebratory banquet popped up with a bunch of princes who added to the blockage.

Today, such a harmonious morning dynasty popped up again, and a crying and howling Lord Xu popped up. Anyway, Lord Xu was fine yesterday, talking and laughing with the officials, why did he have a mental illness today?

After last night's lanterns, all the officials returned to the house, and Lord Xu came to the banquet with only one attendant, and there were only four sedan chair men from Xu's mansion when he went back.

The sedan chair man carried the sedan chair to the door of Xu's house, and his entourage went to knock on the door, but no one opened the door after knocking for a long time. The attendant kicked twice and found that the door was stuck inside, and it took a lot of effort for the two palanquin drivers to climb through the wall.

As a result, they did not come to open the gate, but screamed in the courtyard. Lord Xu and his entourage shouted outside the courtyard, and the sedan chair man shouted in the courtyard. It took them a long time before they opened the door, and the two men who were guarding the door were killed.

After all, Lord Xu is a member of the court, and his family may have been robbed. Looking up at the red lights hanging in the corners of the eaves, the Xu Mansion is still festive. I didn't see anyone walking around, so it must not be a big deal.

The entourage was playing the lantern, the sedan chair man lifted the empty sedan chair, and Lord Xu walked towards the inner house. After walking for a long distance and not encountering a team of patrolling family members, Lord Xu's heart became more and more panicked.

Pushing open the door of the main hall, Lord Xu fainted directly. The blood flowed all over the room, and the corpses in the room were strewn in all sorts of strange postures, the only thing that was the expression of horror.

There are more than 600 people up and down the Xu Mansion, and now there are only Lord Xu and an entourage plus four sedan chair men. Regardless of men, women and children, regardless of masters, servants and guests, they all join hands on Huangquan Road.

Who can stand being wiped out in one night? Who cares about what? Lord Xu's breath was reserved for going to the Golden Palace to sue the emperor, otherwise he would have committed suicide last night.

The emperor was furious when he heard this, how could such a heinous case be allowed to happen in the imperial capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven? The Criminal Department, the Ministry of Officials, and the Dali Temple, the emperor looked over one by one, and they all shrank their necks.

Who wants to take on this big case? I want to push it out if I can. The emperor asked one by one, and sure enough, they pushed one by one. In the end, the three of them pointed the finger at Ye Gu Yuanhong.

The government is responsible for the security of the capital, and this matter is under his control. Ye Gu Yuanhong glanced at them with disdain, in the end, it was a young man who had the courage to take the case without hesitation or frowning.

How could the emperor throw such a heavy case to Ye Gu Yuanhong alone? "The matter is serious, this case will be handled by the government office, and the Dali Temple will assist in the trial, find out the facts of the case as soon as possible, arrest the real culprit, and correct the law of the country."

"The retainers obeyed." Ye Gu Yuanhong took a deep look.

"Your Ministers obey." Dali Temple Zhengqing took a deep look.

When the case is received, an investigation must be launched immediately, which cannot wait for the end of the annual leave. Ye Gu Yuanhong and Zhengqing of Dali Temple immediately transferred people and rushed to Lord Xu's house together.

First of all, a total of 617 corpses were counted, and all the Xu family members were here, except for Lord Xu, only the fourth lady Xu Lanying, who married into the palace, escaped.

Secondly, the inventory of the property of the Xu Mansion is the same as the account books of the Xu Mansion, which is very time-consuming. Master Xu just sat there and watched, his eyes were very empty.

Dali Temple Zhengqing and Ye Gu Yuanhong sat on the side drinking tea, waiting for the results. "Your Highness, it makes no sense whether this case is tried or not, just the property, Lao Xu is enough to steal the family."

"He's a good three-pin person." Ye Guyuanhong glanced at him meaningfully, he was a good product, he smiled awkwardly and stopped chatting with the prince.
