Chapter 178 What kind of hatred and grudges

Hearing this, Liang Ming was shocked and Xu Muhua was silent.

Just tell me, is she a star from the book? Wherever she goes, bad things happen. What a bad luck!

Did she and Li Shangshu's family have some irreconcilable hatred in the previous life? Why do they keep arguing with each other?

General Xiang doesn't need to say more, Xu Muhua knows it all. If the people in the Li Mansion knew about this, even if they didn't do it, the Li Mansion would definitely think that they did it, and then cause trouble for the Chengguo Mansion!

Headache!

What kind of grudge and sin is this!

Liang Ming also knew that he and the eldest lady were in big trouble!

If it were an ordinary family, maybe General Xiang could make some concessions and let them go back home first. But the dead is the son of the Minister of War...

"General, how about this, I stay here and let my second young master go back first?"

Liang Ming thought of a compromise.

But General Xiang said: "I'm afraid that's not possible. Minister Li has received the news, and if nothing unexpected happens, he should arrive soon."

So they may not be able to leave even if they want to.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps. Xu Muhua looked and saw Li Gang striding in with a gloomy face.

"I heard that the murderer of my son has been caught. Where is he?"

General Xiang said: "Sir Li, the man is dead."

"What? Dead? How did he die? He was fine when he escaped from my Li Mansion. Did you kill him?"

"No, he was already dead when our people found him."

And dead.

"So it was his accomplice who did the murder? Have you found his accomplice?"

General Xiang paused, and decided to save face for the Duke's Mansion. "The accomplice was not found, but there happened to be an eyewitness." "

Who?"

General Xiang pointed, and Li Gang looked in the direction, and then he noticed that in addition to Xiang Gong, there were two other people here, one tall, and the other short and thin. But they all looked unfamiliar.

"Who are they?"

Xu Muhua opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, General Xiang said, "These two are from the Duke Cheng's Mansion. When our people caught up with them, they were next to the murderer..." "

So they killed the murderer, they are the murderer's accomplices! General Xiang, if that's the case, why don't you arrest them and interrogate them!"

When Li Gang heard that they were from the Duke Cheng's Mansion, his expression was stained with a hint of disgust.

Originally, there was no grudge between the Duke Cheng's Mansion and the Minister of War's Mansion, but because of the previous incident, the eldest daughter of the Duke Cheng's Mansion caused the death of a legitimate daughter of his Li Mansion. This hatred was settled.

Li Gang definitely didn't have a good impression of the Duke Cheng's Mansion. Now that this matter has been brought up again, he was originally just a little displeased, but now it has turned into disgust all of a sudden, not to mention that the person in front of him now is not Duke Cheng himself! What kind of face does he still want from him? Is he worthy?

"Sir Li, look at what you said. We were clearly witnesses when we told the general, but how come we became suspects in your mouth? You can't suspect us of accomplices just because we happened to pass by there! Everything depends on evidence, right?"

"If you are not accomplices, how could you be there by chance? Why were you there at this time?"

"Which law stipulates that I can't be there? When I was there, the closing drum hadn't been sounded yet!"

The closing drum hasn't been sounded yet, which means that the curfew has not officially started. She can go wherever she likes!

Li Gang was blocked by her and couldn't say anything to refute for a while. He could only curse: "You are simply eloquent and unreasonable!"

"Sir Li, what you said is wrong. I am obviously talking to you about reason! If I am unreasonable, you can refute me and convince me with reason!" If you can't win with reason, you

say that others are unreasonable. Who is the unreasonable person?

Li Gang thought that this guy was sharp-tongued and was unwilling to get involved with him. He looked at Xiang Gong and said in a tough attitude: "General Xiang, no matter what, these two people appeared next to the murderer, and the murderer is dead, so they cannot escape suspicion! I hope that you, the general, will handle this impartially!"

This was a hint that he should not be partial because of the status of the Chengguo Mansion.

"Of course, but just like he said, everything depends on evidence. So far, we have only seen the two of them appear at the scene, but there is no evidence to prove that they are accomplices of the murderer. I wonder if your mansion has found any relevant evidence?"

Without waiting for Li Gang to speak, he continued, "Sir Li, your mansion was robbed, but you have been unwilling to say what valuable items were stolen. It is very difficult for us to do this! Otherwise, you go to the prefect tomorrow?"

Li Gang stopped talking.

Didn't he just not want to go to Jingzhao Prefecture, so he wanted them to let the Jinwu Guards solve the matter? Once they go to Jingzhao Prefecture, it is hard to say how things will develop.

Xu Muhua saw that there was something wrong with this matter!

Li Gang's attitude was obviously a bit evasive... If something was stolen, why not say openly what it was? Unless the stolen thing is something that cannot be seen in public.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Li Gang's embarrassed look, but he had to say it. He pulled Xiang Gong aside and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid to tell General Xiang that what was stolen from my house was actually a red coral tree. This red coral tree is naturally beautiful, with a priceless value. But because it is too precious..."

He glanced in the direction of the palace, and then looked at Xiang Gong with a look of "you know"

, "If the nobles in the palace knew about this, I would have to eat enough."

Xiang Gong could understand him when he said that.

After all, apart from the scandal caused by the eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Gang has always had a very good reputation. If people suddenly knew that there was a priceless red coral tree in his house, one can imagine what kind of speculation the outside world would have. It is

understandable that he would hide it.

"That's why I'm anxious to hope that you, General Xiang, can quickly find and catch this thief. Not to mention that this thief stole my treasure, and even killed my son!"

Li Gang's eyes turned red, and he gritted his teeth in anger, "Even if the murderer is dead, I will cut him into pieces!"

"Don't worry, Lord Li, this matter will definitely be investigated thoroughly. But at dawn, this matter will be handed over, and other matters are not my responsibility. Lord Li, you'd better think of other ways."

Thinking of the man in Jingzhao Prefecture, Li Gang couldn't help but frown.

That's a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, it would be difficult to start with him.
