Chapter 656: Silencing the Witness



Finally, Bian Shan was invited into the room, and her maid was guarding outside the door.

But the corpse was still lying there. When Bian Shan came in, she immediately covered her mouth with a look of horror on her face.

Mrs. Guo hurried forward and grabbed Bian Shan. "Shh, please be quiet. I'll tell you slowly, slowly!"

Bian Shan's expression was slightly pale, and she glanced quickly at Xue Ziyi, but quickly looked away. Her body was trembling slightly, and she saluted respectfully towards Ni Yueshan.

"Meet the Crown Princess."

Ni Yueshan just looked at her calmly, "Madam Bian really has some backbone. She didn't turn around and rushed out of the door."

Bian Shan looked at Ni Yueshan with a slightly uneasy expression: "Master, what's wrong with you..."

"Mrs. Bian, I want to ask you, what do you think of the eldest young master's personality?"

Bian Shan raised her eyes to glance at Xue Ziyi, then quickly lowered her head: "Young Master, you have a very good temper and treat people very kindly."

"Mrs. Bian, you also saw Master Xue lying on the ground. His face was slightly pale and gray. It was obvious that he had been dead for some time."

Bian Shan knelt on the ground, a look of fear on her face: "Crown Princess, why did the master die? Please tell me why you called me here..."

"Send someone to call the coroner. He'll come in to perform the autopsy later. You just stay by the side and listen and watch."

Bian Shan looked at Ni Yueshan in surprise, then looked at Xue Ziyi.

Xue Ziyi nodded to Bian Shan, and Bian Shan stood up from the ground: "Okay, I'll go right away!"

"Madam Bian, please do not make this matter public. Just tell the servants to find a coroner!"

"yes!"

Bian Shan walked out in a well-behaved manner. Mrs. Guo then walked up to Ni Yueshan and asked, "Crown Princess, what are you planning?"

"Mom, just wait and see patiently."

Afterwards, the coroner was called over, but when he saw the situation in the room clearly, he was still a little surprised.

These people were surrounding the corpse, waiting for him to come leisurely?

"Sir, please investigate the cause of Mr. Xue's death."

The coroner walked up slowly and began to examine Xue Rong's body with great familiarity without asking any questions.

Xue Ziyi and Bian Shan stood aside, waiting.

After the autopsy was completed, the coroner reported: "Mr. Xue, the back of his head was stabbed with a sharp weapon, leaving a large wound. The wound was long and deep, causing him to die on the spot."

Mrs. Guo immediately breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to hold Xue Ziyi's hand, with an expression as if she was congratulating Xue Ziyi.

Xue Ziyi also looked relieved. Ni Yueshan turned to look at Bian Shan and said, "Aunt Bian, your master died a violent death. I think it's best to announce his death as soon as possible and then bury him!"

Bian Shan began to wipe her tears, her face full of sadness: "Yes."

Ni Yueshan looked at Xue Ziyi again and said, "As the eldest son of the Xue family, you should assist Aunt Bian in handling Mr. Xue's funeral. Please accept my condolences!"

Afterwards, Ni Yueshan stood up, obviously preparing to leave.

"Let me escort the Crown Princess!" Xue Ziyi took the initiative to follow Ni Yueshan.

Bian Shan walked up to the coroner and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Come with me to the accounting office to withdraw money!"

The servants of the Xue family were obviously wondering what had happened today that would bring Mrs. Guo back...

Ni Yueshan glanced at Mrs. Guo who was following beside her and said, "Mom, you are pregnant. Why don't you walk slower? You can also have a good chat with your son."

Afterwards, Ni Yueshan looked at Qingluan and Qingfeng, and walked out with the two of them.

Mrs. Guo looked at Xue Ziyi beside her and said, "I originally thought that this matter would be very complicated, but it turns out that all we need is Aunt Bian to listen to the coroner's autopsy. What a false alarm!"

He sighed and said, "Although the master is your father, he often beat and scolded you and was very strict with you. Your life was not as easy as that of a servant. Now that your father is dead, you can be considered free from now on!"

Mrs. Guo obviously didn't feel the slightest bit sad about Xue Rong's death. Xue Ziyi also had a look of relief: "Dad, it's all his own fault that he got what he deserved!"

Mrs. Guo looked at Xue Ziyi strangely, "That's not his own fault, that's the punishment of God!"

Xue Ziyi did not refute Mrs. Guo's words, but only spoke to comfort her: "Mother, from now on you don't have to worry about me. I just feel sorry for my sister. Dad believed Zheng Rouer's slander and married my sister far away. I'm afraid her life will be difficult..."

After the two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries, Mrs. Guo left the Xue Mansion.

Inside the carriage, Mrs. Guo smiled at Ni Yueshan and said, "Thank you so much, Yueshan. If you hadn't come, I really don't know how to handle this matter!"

As he spoke, he tapped his forehead with an annoyed expression.

Ni Yueshan helplessly responded, "As long as Madam Bian and Master Xue agree on what they say, and they both hold a grand funeral for Master Xue, the matter can be put behind us. As for the servants' gossip, Master Xue's closest relatives haven't been held accountable, so how can their gossip still have any impact?"

Mrs. Guo felt that what Ni Yueshan said was absolutely right, and the worry on her face gradually subsided.

The carriage was still swaying forward, but a panicked cry was heard from not far away: "Help, help—"

The sound was not loud, and seemed to be a little far away from here.

Qingfeng and Qingluan, with their internal energy, could naturally hear farther than Ni Yueshan and Madam Guo. They lifted the carriage curtain and reported to Ni Yueshan, "Crown Princess, we heard someone shouting for help not far away."

"Then go save them!"

Qingfeng and Qingluan looked at each other, and finally Qingfeng left to check, while Qingluan stayed to protect Ni Yueshan.

Ni Yueshan urged helplessly: "You go too, I have Qingfeng protecting me in secret."

Ni Yueshan and Mrs. Guo were waiting in the carriage. Mrs. Guo said worriedly, "In broad daylight, there are still people who want to murder others?"

"It's indeed a bit bold." Ni Yueshan responded and waited for the two to come back.

But when the two came back, Ni Yueshan and Mrs. Guo were both surprised.

Because the person rescued by Qingluan and Qingfeng was not someone else, but the coroner who performed the autopsy on Xue Rong today...

this……

"You are being chased? Someone wants to silence you?" Ni Yueshan looked at the coroner in surprise.

The coroner, with a terrified expression and a pale face, responded, "Yes! Thank you, Crown Princess, for saving my life. Thank you, Crown Princess, for saving my life!"

As he said this, he knelt down in front of her and kowtowed hard.

Ni Yueshan looked at him suspiciously: "Who wants to silence you?"

The coroner looked at Mrs. Guo beside Ni Yueshan with some hesitation.

The coroner's expression was too obvious, and Ni Yueshan frowned deeply. "My mother?"

Mrs. Guo's expression also changed: "What do you mean by looking at me like that?"
