Chapter 177
He Xixian walked over through the muddy water, holding a corner of his official robe.Seeing that Wei Qi was still here pointing the way to a guy he didn't know, she was so angry that she raised her whiskers to the sky:
"Just a few prisoners, is it worth the officer to come and pick them up in person?"

Looking in the direction of his finger, I saw a few barefoot beggars in rags kneeling down, crying:
"My lord! They have salt! They have rice! The villain is just for stuttering, my lord!"

"Please, my lord, don't let the little one go to prison! Otherwise, my wife and children will starve to death, my lord!"

Several people kowtowed and begged for mercy, as if they wanted to hug He Xixian's thigh.

"What are you doing! Boldly making trouble!"

He Xixian yelled and took a few steps back, and gestured to his subordinates: "What are you doing in a daze! Take it down for me!"

The officers and soldiers were ordered to press them into the muddy soup and handcuff them behind their backs.

He Xixian stretched his neck and yelled: "What are you doing! You want to rebel! What kind of rice and salt? Just because of such a piece of rag, you are going to block the entrance to the south of the city?"

He said, throwing a white cloth on the faces of those people: "There is no salt on it, it is worth grabbing!"

Seeing this, Wei Qi touched the red tassel on the helmet with embarrassment: "Lord He, calm down."

"Calm your anger? Huh! You told the majesty about the riots in the south of the city. I have been squatting here since the morning, and now I don't even have a fucking fart!"

"It's just a few unscrupulous people robbing food. With such a heavy rain, you think I'm doing nothing!"

Wei Qi didn't speak, but smiled apologetically.

He Xixian let out a cold snort and walked towards the carriage, but before he got on the carriage, several people shouted from behind him.

"My lord! My lord!"

The sound made his feet slip in fright, and he almost fell into a mud puddle: "What the hell is wrong! I saw a ghost!"

The two men ran over on the muddy ground, out of breath from exhaustion, but they couldn't hide the horror on their faces: "My lord! On the river beach of Heizhuang Ridge, my lord..."

"Floating from the river beach..."

"What happened?" Seeing this, He Xixian was so anxious that Mung Dou's small eyes widened.

"Several corpses surfaced! It looks like a prisoner who escaped from a prison..."

Upon hearing this, He Xixian gave a blank look: "I thought it was such a big deal! A few fugitives..."

"and also……"

"what else?!"

"And that..."

Seeing these two people looming for a long time without saying anything, He Xixian straightened the coir raincoat on his body: "Okay, okay! Don't talk about it, just take me to have a look."

Seeing this, Ming Yuexi, who was not far away, directly picked up Jia Dafang in the sack, and found an empty bayonet to turn over.

Like the wind under your feet, it brushed over several deserted graves, dropped the sack and turned back the same way.

When He Xixian and Wei Qi led people to the river beach of Heizhuangling, the bodies that were washed out had already been carried to a high place on the bank.

"Leave this white cloth to me!"

Not daring to delay, several people hastily lifted off the white cloth covering the corpse one by one.

Looking all the way, I saw that these corpses were all wearing tattered prison uniforms.

Don't think about it, it must be the prisoner who escaped when the prison in Shuntian Prefecture was on fire on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

However, when the last piece of white cloth was uncovered, the man's attire was eye-catching.

The brocade robe he was wearing was not only not dilapidated after being soaked in the dirty river water, but the green bamboo patterns on it were still glowing bright green under the light of the wind lamp.

At first glance, it is the outfit of a rich family!

After seeing this person's face clearly, Wei Qi spoke in a tone of shock that she had never seen before: "This, isn't this the third son of Grand Tutor Xie, Xie Huaijin?"

Xie Huaijin? !

When He Xixian heard the name, his head buzzed, and he collapsed to the ground in fright on the spot.

One daughter and one son of Grand Tutor Xie died one after another in the capital, so the **** is going to take off his own black hat, this **** wants to kill himself!
Wei Qi hurriedly supported He Xixian, seeing him staring at the front with loose eyes, wanting to cry without tears, she shouted anxiously: "Master He! Master He, are you alright?"

He Xixian stood up slowly, gnashing his teeth angrily: "Who the hell did this!"

"Block all the gates of the capital! Don't let a single fly go!!"

"Yes!!"

The officers and soldiers took orders, got on their horses and galloped away under the rain curtain.

"Hey!~" Seeing Xie Huaijin's tragic death, He Xixian slapped his forehead in anger, "Quickly report to the Holy Majesty! Inform Xie's family to identify the corpse!"

Another flash of lightning pierced the night, and the rain shot down like silver swords, violently rushing towards every corner under the capital.

Under the thunder, the cries in the Xiuluan Pavilion of Changchun Palace shook the sky.

"My lord! My lord! Who wants to kill the concubine? The child and brother of the concubine!"

Since learning that she lost the dragon fetus, Xie Minmin has been crying all day long, and Xiao Jingyu has also taken good care of her.

It's just that in the middle of the night, when Xie Minmin was supposed to be sleeping peacefully, she was awakened by thunder.

Xiao Jingyu wanted to comfort him, but he heard Liu Yuanhai report He Xixian and Wei Qi's discoveries one by one, and the fatal cause of Xie Huaijin's death was that someone strangled his neck and died of suffocation.

However, the results of the autopsy also said that the finger marks on Xie Huaijin's neck were somewhat abnormal, unlike the marks of ordinary people's thumbs.

He suddenly felt that this matter was strange, and regardless of the grief of the woman on the bed, he put on his cloak and left the Xiuluan Pavilion:
"Don't think too much, my concubine, I will handle it myself."

Seeing the indifferent back of the Holy Master disappear in front of him, Xie Minmin's bloodless face was dyed pale by the lightning.

The pain of losing a son is still in my heart, and now there is the sad news of my younger brother's tragic death, and the grief and anger in my chest are constantly surging.

She didn't care that Xiaoyue couldn't catch a cold just now, she stood up barefoot and grabbed the collar of the kite:
"Tell me what's going on! Why did something happen to Huaijin! Did that bitch Lu Wanlan do it!!"

"Your Majesty, be careful..." Zhi Yuan hurriedly put on a brocade jacket for her, "Someone from the house said that the Third Young Master went out for a whole day the day before yesterday, and I don't know who he met, and that it was the King of Yan who made your Majesty nearly lose her pregnancy. I took the sword and said I would avenge my mother..."

Xie Minmin was stunned, her eyes widened because of being too excited: "What sword? Why did King Yan harm me?"

"And then!"

After hearing Zhi Yuan's words, she seemed to think of something, and Dou Da's tears slid out of her eyes:
"He went to avenge this palace? Did he go to find Xiao Yanzhi? You mean Xiao Yanzhi killed Huaijin?"

"Your servant doesn't know." Zhi Yuan knelt on the ground and replied with tears in her eyes, "My servant only knows that the mansion has been looking for the third young master, and that the cotton and silk business is waiting for his instructions."

"Wow!" Xie Minmin sneered tremblingly, seemingly insane, "They all want to harm me and Xie's family!"

"Don't worry, ma'am, the eldest son has already informed the master to return to Beijing! The real culprit will definitely be found out!"

Speaking of this, Zhiyuan suddenly recalled Liu Yuanhai's words, and said again: "Eunuch Liu just told this servant in private that there are obvious five finger marks on the third young master's neck!"

After a pause, he hesitated: "The mark has a purple-black corner, which is clearly, clearly..."

"What is it?" Xie Minmin grabbed Zhiyuan's arm and roared, "Say it!"

Zhiyuan was trembling all over, and her air was like a gossamer: "Yes, it's the hand with the jade wrench..."

"Jade wrench finger..."

Xie Minmin frowned suddenly, his eyes were as red as blood: "It's him?"
