Chapter 282 Do you have any shame?
Shangguan Jue frowned, "Master Xu, don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone started talking.
"No, why not interrogate him in public?"
"Yes, I demand a public trial. I want to know who was so cruel as to kill my man!"
"Interrogate him in public, interrogate him in public!"
…
Shangguan Rong's wife, Li, rushed in front of Shangguan Jue again, staring at him with a ferocious look on her face:
"Shangguan Jue, are you trying to protect the murderer? Do you know who is behind this?"
Shangguan Jue shook his head, his expression serious:
"I don't know. The investigation is Mr. Chen's business, so just leave it to him.
Li, please go aside. Lord Chen will give you an explanation after he investigates the matter.
If you continue to lead the team to make trouble here, don't blame me for being rude."
After stopping Li, Shangguan Jue looked at Xu Wuyan with a sullen face:
"Master Xu, please stop fanning the flames here, okay?
My Shangguan family is already in chaos enough. If you add to the chaos here, I tell you, I will not be polite to you."
Xu Wuyan glanced at him and said, "I just want to clear my name. After all, this man looks suspicious.
I guess he was the one who delivered these snacks, otherwise why would he run away?
Find out who ordered this. The murder in the backyard was most likely the work of this person."
Xu Wuyan's words happened to be heard by the women of the Shangguan family who were driven out from the backyard.
When they heard who had killed their own head of the family, they were immediately furious.
"Have you found the murderer? Who is the murderer? Hand him over!"
"Yes, tell me quickly, tell me clearly, what happened? I want to know who the murderer is."
"This bastard killed my head of the family. We can't just let this go."
"Whoever knows who did this, please tell me who the murderer is."
…
These shouts made Shangguan Jue's face, which was already extremely ugly, even uglier.
But before he could say anything, Xu Wuyan beside him explained the whole cause and effect.
"So this Shunzi is very likely to know who the murderer is." Xu Wuyan raised his eyebrows:
"Young Master Shangguan Jue wants to hand this case over to Lord Chen for trial. You can wait. Once Lord Chen arrives, everything will be revealed."
When the women of the Shangguan family heard that Shangguan Jue was actually going to hand the man over to the government for trial, they were immediately dissatisfied:
"Why should we hand it over to the government for trial? The government has to listen to our Shangguan family. Just try it directly. I want to know who killed my man."
"Yes, let's have a public trial here. I want to see which bastard dares to touch a man from my Shangguan family."
"Wow, what sin did our Shangguan family commit? Why did so many male Shangguans die? My poor son, you died miserably."
…
Xu Wuyan's face looked mysterious.
This fire is lit just right!
Lin Mo, who was standing aside, looked at Shangguan Jue and shook his head. Old Xu was very good at fanning the flames.
Very good at it!
Shangguan Jue glared at Xu Wuyan angrily, then looked at his master with a headache:
"Listen to me, even if this man has committed an unforgivable crime, he should be convicted by the imperial court, not by us setting up a private execution hall.
If we set up a torture chamber privately and the imperial court finds out, I'm afraid our Shangguan family will be in big trouble, understand?"
"I don't care about that. I just want to know who killed my man. It would be best if they tried him in public. I don't want to be fooled!" Li's voice was the loudest, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes.
Shangguan Jue tried to stop him again and again, so he must have known something.
After all, if something happened to their Shangguan family, who would ask the officials to deal with it?
He spoke in a very high-sounding manner.
Because it wasn't him who died.
Others followed suit and started shouting:
"Public trial!"
"I demand a public trial!"
…
Shangguan Jue was angry. Looking at the noisy crowd, he could no longer bear it.
He kicked the brazier next to him.
Bang!
The brazier made a loud noise and the ashes in the brazier flew everywhere.
Fortunately, the fire in the brazier had already been extinguished, so it did not cause a fire.
Shangguan Jue was furious and immediately stunned everyone.
For a moment, the scene was extremely quiet.
Shangguan Jue took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then said in a cold voice:
"This matter involves serious matters and must be handed over to Lord Chen for trial. If Lord Chen says it should be a public trial, I have no objection, then let's have a public trial.
But before Lord Chen arrives, no one is allowed to cause me trouble.
The Shangguan family has enough troubles already. If anyone deliberately stirs up trouble, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying this, he glanced at a corner and then landed on Xu Wuyan:
"Master Xu, stop talking nonsense. What do you think?"
Xu Wuyan raised his eyebrows. Was what he said nonsense?
Well, he'd better not say anything then.
Seeing Xu Wuyan didn't say anything, Shangguan Jue looked at the others with a sullen face:
"Stop making a fuss. Once Lord Chen has thoroughly investigated this matter, he will not let the deceased's death be in vain. If you want a public trial then, how could Lord Chen refuse?"
Now, as long as I send them away and meet with Lord Chen in private, things will be easy.
In short, the Shangguan family’s reputation must not be tarnished!
A dark light flashed in Shangguan Jue's eyes, and when his eyes swept in Shunzi's direction, there was a strong murderous intent that could not be dispelled.
At this moment, a loud male voice was heard from outside the crowd.
“You want this case to be heard in public?
I agree!"
After saying that, Chen Fengqing squeezed in from outside the crowd.
As soon as they saw him, the onlookers stepped aside and made way for him.
When Shangguan Jue saw Chen Fengqing, his brows frowned unnaturally. Why did he come so soon?
But he quickly hid the emotion on his face, walked quickly to Chen Fengqing, and bowed politely:
"Master Chen, I finally waited for you to come!"
Chen Fengqing nodded slightly, with a serious expression:
"I've pretty much understood the case. Now it's time to share my thoughts."
Looking at Chen Fengqing's expression, Shangguan Jue suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
He quickly winked at Chen Fengqing, signaling him not to say anything more.
But Chen Fengqing acted as if he didn't see it and continued to talk about his own thoughts.
In a word, such a vicious person should be severely beaten and forced to reveal the person behind the scenes.
Shangguan Jue looked very unhappy.
He now saw clearly that someone might have bribed Chen Fengqing.
Chen Fengqing is just a greedy idiot, how could he possibly investigate the case seriously?
His current attitude is probably...
The other party’s background is very important!
Shangguan Jue looked at Xu Wuyan with gloomy eyes. No one here had this ability except him.
So this was arranged by him?
How long has it been?
Shangguan Jue finally understood what his father said before he died.
The Xu family is indeed not easy to mess with.
Even though they were exiled, their foundation was still there, and no one could bully the Xu family.
Xu Wuyan looked innocent, "Master Shangguan, why are you looking at me like that?
Did you suddenly realize how handsome I am and couldn't take your eyes off me?"
Shangguan Jue, “…”
How can a man say such a thing? Does he have any shame?
