Chapter 142: Confess the Truth



Xu Heyan was taken away in front of him.

Mr. Xu and Xu Hesheng remained indifferent.

Xu's second uncle got up.

Don't care about the dust on your body.

He quickly ran to his own courtyard.

Aunt Xu was arranging the maid beside her.

"The sky is about to change, why haven't the young master's clothes been finished yet?"

The maid hunched over, feeling somewhat frightened.

"Master, if you grow taller, I will fix it right away."

Aunt Xu waved her hand impatiently: "Go quickly."

The maid breathed a sigh of relief and ran away quickly.

"Where's Yan'er?"

Aunt Xu watched him come back by himself and subconsciously looked behind him.

Uncle Xu's second face didn't look very good.

"He was taken away."

"Took away?! Who took him away?!"

Aunt Xu's voice suddenly became louder, and even the servants and maids working nearby dared not make a sound.

Xu's second uncle was a little impatient and looked at the people around him.

He waved his hand: "Everyone, go down!"

Only after all the maids and servants had left did the second uncle of the Xu family put on a cold face.

"Who else could have taken him away? Butler Zhou from Mancheng Mansion!"

Aunt Xu immediately felt her legs go weak.

"How...how could he be taken away!?"

As parents, we naturally know what Xu Heyan is capable of.

How could this person be taken away by Butler Zhou?

The second uncle of the Xu family narrowed his eyes and said, "What else could it be? Xu Hesheng was taken away because of the Hongcheng incident."

Aunt Xu frowned tightly.

"Yan'er doesn't know anything either. If he knew, he would have told the commander!"

The more Aunt Xu thought about it, the more worried she became.

"Anyway, go ask first."

"Is there no movement from the head house?"

Xu's second uncle snorted coldly.

"Movement? What kind of movement do you want?"

"They wish Yan'er would die right there!"

Aunt Xu gritted her teeth and said, "I knew it. They've been wanting to deal with Yan'er for a long time!"

Xu's second uncle closed his eyes.

He was a little uneasy.

"If it really comes to that, even if it means we die, it's not impossible."

Aunt Xu was stunned. She didn't expect him to say such words directly.

"this.."

"No matter what, nothing can happen to Yan'er."

Full of city halls and dungeons.

This was the first time Xu Heyan came to such a place.

He felt uncomfortable because his hands were being held.

"Butler Zhou."

Xu Heyan shouted, and Butler Zhou paused.

"Second Master Xu, what's wrong?"

Xu Heyan smiled and quietly handed over the jade pendant in his hand.

"Butler Zhou, this is just a small gift. Take it and have some tea."

Butler Zhou looked at the translucent white corner.

"Second Master Xu, you should keep it for yourself."

His voice was very cold.

He looked at the two people who were holding Xu Heyan.

The other two took Xu Heyan directly inside.

In the interrogation room, sitting opposite him was the Lord of Lanzhou.

"Sir, the person has been brought here."

Lord Lanzhou nodded.

Xu Heyan was about to say something when someone kicked him from behind.

Kneeled directly on the ground.

Xu Heyan hissed.

Butler Zhou took advantage of the situation and stood behind Lord Lanzhou.

"Xu Heyan."

Xu Heyan raised his head and barely suppressed the curses from his mouth.

"I have met Mr. Fujun."

The Lord of Lanzhou raised his brows slightly.

"I heard from Commander Liu that you saw a lot of things in Hongcheng, right?"

Commander Liu was the previous commander of the garrison.

Xu Heyan nodded: "Yes."

"Tell me, what did you see?"

"I have seen and heard everything."

The Lord of Lanzhou changed his usual generous appearance.

Instead, he chuckled.

When Xu Heyan heard this, cold sweat started dripping down his face.

"This is all true, sir!"

The Lord of Lanzhou lowered his eyes and said, "I remember your cousin also went to Hongcheng."

"He did admit it. He went to Hongcheng for the inn at home. So, you went there... for what?"

Xu Heyan was stunned, and anger surged in his heart.

No wonder.

After Butler Zhou sent Xu Hesheng back, he came straight to him!

It turned out that Xu Hesheng told everything!

Fortunately, he still wanted to save a few things.

Xu Heyan is not as good as Xu Hesheng, whose thoughts are written all over his face.

The Lord of Lanzhou strikes while the iron is hot.

"Tell me, why did you appear in Hongcheng!"

His voice suddenly became louder.

Xu Heyan was already feeling guilty and a little distracted, but he suddenly became more clear-headed.

Mainly because I was scared.

He usually gets into trouble a lot, but he always picks things up high and puts them down gently.

Raised by Xu's second uncle, he doesn't know his place and relies on the Xu family to support him.

I am a little clever.

So when facing the Lord of Lanzhou, he still wanted to be clever.

"Master, I...I just want to follow my cousin to broaden my horizons!"

The Lord of Lanzhou uttered a soft "Oh".

"Yeah?"

Xu Heyan was panicked by what he said.

"It's true, but my cousin passed away early."

"I left quite late that night, and I felt something was wrong."

The Lord of Lanzhou raised his head slightly.

"Something's wrong."

"Even if my cousin was in a hurry to come back, he wouldn't have cared about the middle of the night. He left in such a hurry."

This is indeed very strange.

Even the Lord of Lanzhou asked about this at that time.

But Xu Hesheng was completely flawless.

He just said that he wanted to send Master Wenhua back as soon as possible.

"Besides, something happened around noon the next day."

Xu Heyan had just stood up at that time.

I was just planning to ask the servants I brought with me to get some food.

I didn't expect that the floor would be in a mess as soon as I bought the rice.

He didn't understand what was going on at the time, so he sent his servant down to take a look.

Unexpectedly, something happened to the boy soon after.

It's so scary to look at that appearance.

It didn't take long for the person to disappear.

At first Xu Heyan thought he was having some emergency.

Later I felt something was wrong.

How come so many people get hurt one after another?

He quickly asked everyone to leave and hid in the house himself.

"What happened at noon..."

"That's right! I think I saw someone jumping into the water upstairs!"

Xu Heyan suddenly remembered the glimpse he had taken at the window before.

It was just a glance at the time.

He didn't know whether he saw it clearly.

So just think of it as your own eyes playing tricks on you.

Who would jump into the water in broad daylight?

The Lord of Lanzhou suddenly looked unhappy.

He called over Butler Zhou.

Steward Zhou bent over, and the Lord of Lanzhou whispered a few words in his ear.

"Send someone to check the water, quickly."

Butler Zhou nodded and strode out.

Xu Heyan was still a little confused as he watched Butler Zhou leave.

"Master, I have said everything I can say."

The Lord of Lanzhou remained calm and asked, "Did you really say everything?"

"You'd better think it over carefully, if I find out."

"That would be a big deal."

After all, this matter involves an epidemic. If the Lord of Lanzhou were to investigate it.

Xu Heyan can't wash himself clean if he jumps into the river.

"Sir, I, the humble servant, did cooperate with the bandits a little."

The Lord of Lanzhou looked at him.

"Cooperation on what?"

"Repeat what happened to the Xu family back then."
