The reason why the Assistant Minister of Justice cooperated with Xue Zixiao was naturally because he felt that Mu Lianlian was not the real murderer.
But Mu Lianlian did not deny it, doesn't that mean that she is inseparable from this matter?
Was it really her who did it?
"What have you done to the man?" the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice inquired.
Mu Lianlian said calmly: "Take him out of the capital!"
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice frowned, he didn't expect that Mu Lianlian had caused such a big disaster, but she could still speak so calmly!
She has no idea how serious the matter is!
"As long as Xue Zixiao finds out that the man you arranged is from the mansion, there will be no way to hide what you did!"
"He was able to destroy your appearance in the mansion last time, do you think he can't take your life this time?"
Mu Lianlian's expression changed for only a moment, and she smiled and said, "Xue Zixiao will not find out that the man is from the mansion!"
"Even if we find him, we need to prove that Musasha didn't go with anyone voluntarily! So, Dad, you don't have to worry at all!"
Mu Lianlian was not worried at all, but the Minister of Justice still looked solemn.
But now that things have come to this, it would be useless even if he criticized Mu Lianlian harshly.
Instead, he prayed that Xue Zixiao didn't find out anything, otherwise, with Xue Zixiao's personality, he might really do something that he couldn't stop.
Soon, Xue Zixiao and the housekeeper came over again.
But Xue Zixiao didn't expect that Mu Lianlian would dare to appear in front of him!
Mu Lianlian stood beside the Minister of Justice. Although she was afraid of Xue Zixiao, she didn't think that Xue Zixiao could find out anything this time.
Xue Zixiao asked the servant whose name was called to stand up. After everyone's name had been called, the remaining indentures in the box would be redundant.
It also means that the person whose indenture is in the box is not in front of him at the moment, so he can check if the person who took Musasa away is in there.
"General Xue, the person in the portrait is really not from your mansion. Why don't you post this person's portrait and issue a wanted notice?" the housekeeper asked.
Xue Zixiao was somewhat unwilling. He ignored the housekeeper and looked at Mu Lianlian.
At that banquet, apart from Mu Lianlian and Yang Xinwan, he couldn't guess who else would attack Mu Shasha.
However, judging by the situation that day, Mu Lianlian is more suspicious.
But that doesn’t mean that Yang Xinwan is not the person behind the scenes.
Xue Zixiao took the remaining indentures in his hand and said to the Minister of Justice: "I need to investigate these people separately, so I will take the indentures with me!"
The Minister of Justice frowned and nodded.
There was no point in his refusal, because even if Xue Zixiao didn't investigate, it would alert the government officials to come and investigate.
Only after Xue Zixiao walked away did the Minister of Justice breathe a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, he looked at Mu Lianlian.
Mu Lianlian's expression remained calm: "Dad, don't worry, neither of them has a chance to come back!"
"So if we find out who that person is, as long as he has no connection with our family, everything will be easy to solve!"
Seeing Mu Lianlian's confidence, the Minister of Justice felt much more at ease.
After Xue Zixiao left, he prepared to go to the prime minister's residence to investigate, but before he arrived there, he saw a servant dressed in the general's mansion running towards him quickly.
"General, I finally found you. Someone from the palace has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Xue Zixiao was riding on a tall horse at the moment. He glanced at the servant and asked hesitantly, "In the palace?"
"Yes, the palace has given a reward, but you are not here, so the eunuch can only wait."
Xue Zixiao was surprised. Reward?
He hasn't done anything meritorious recently, has he?
But the only special thing that happened recently was the scandal between Yun Xuanting and Yang Xinwan.
So, how could this reward be related to it?
Xue Zixiao couldn't figure it out, but the people in the palace were waiting for him, so he couldn't help but rush back.
In General Xue's mansion, when the eunuch saw Xue Zixiao, he immediately went to greet him.
"General, you are finally back. I am anxious to go back and report!"
Xue Zixiao hesitated and said, "I am confused. What have I done recently that I have received a reward from the palace?"
The father-in-law stepped forward and pulled Xue Zixiao aside.
Xue Zixiao followed.
The eunuch lowered his voice and said, "General Xue, if the Fourth Prince falls into the water, his life will be in danger!"
"You and Miss Yang were the only ones present at the time, weren't you? And you didn't jump into the water to save the man... Wasn't the one who saved him Miss Yang?"
"If Miss Yang hadn't treated him in time, wouldn't the Fourth Prince have died? It was you who persuaded Miss Yang to take action, wasn't it?"
Xue Zixiao frowned. He persuaded Yang Xinwan to take action?
He is not so kind as to let Yang Xinwan save people like that!
Without waiting for Xue Zixiao to say anything, the eunuch continued, "General, you didn't go down to save people at that time, but who are you?"
"You are a general with many military achievements! Why don't you go down to save them? Are you afraid of water? No one will believe you if you tell them that!"
"If you don't want to be charged with not rescuing someone from death, you have to admit that it was you who asked Miss Yang to rescue him!"
"It's all thanks to Miss Yang's solution. Otherwise, if something happened to the Fourth Prince, and you were there, could you escape responsibility?"
Xue Zixiao originally couldn't understand why he was credited with Yun Xuanting's fall into the water.
But after hearing what the eunuch said, he immediately understood.
It turns out that the emperor asked him to either be punished or rewarded!
But the prerequisite for receiving the reward is to declare to the public that it was he who asked Yang Xinwan to save Yun Xuanting!
In this case, how could Yang Xinwan and Yun Xuanting do something immoral regardless of the occasion?
It was obvious that Yang Xinwan was forced to do so! As a fiancé, he persuaded his fiancée to rescue him, which showed that he knew the current situation and knew what was more important!
But if he didn't cooperate, it would mean that he didn't help Yun Xuanting...
The horse suddenly went crazy and mad, and it might be defined as being planned by him, with the purpose of murdering the current Fourth Prince!
Once the charges are determined, Xue Zixiao will probably have a hard time saving his life no matter how many merits he has.
I have to say, Xue Zixiao had no choice!
Seeing Xue Zixiao was silent, the eunuch smiled and reminded him, "General Xue, it's really late. Why are you still hesitating about accepting the reward?"
So Xue Zixiao should quickly collect the reward and complete his mission, and Xue Zixiao himself can continue to be his general, right?
Afterwards, the eunuch looked at the servants waiting on the side and said, "Kneel down, the general wants to receive his reward!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the servants knelt down, but Xue Zixiao turned around with a complicated look in his eyes. He was not in a hurry to kneel down, as if he was still considering whether to cooperate with the emperor.
The eunuch reminded: "General Xue?"
Xue Zixiao frowned, knowing the interests involved. Helping Yang Xinwan would be against his will, but if he didn't help, his fate would be miserable.
Xue Zixiao came back to his senses and finally knelt on the ground: "Your Highness Xue Zixiao accepts the reward..."
