Chapter 411 Corpse

Seeing Qin Anbo looking like a bereaved family member, Yu Yonghuai snorted coldly and threw Qin Anbo out.

Qin Anbo stumbled and lost his balance, bumping into the wall of the alley, making a loud "bang"!

Qin Anbo's face was distorted with pain.

But he didn't care about anything else at the moment, and stretched out his hand towards An Ningxin: "Xin Niang..."

With tears in her eyes, An Ningxin quickly knelt down to say goodbye to Yu Yonghuai and the others, then quickly returned to the courtyard and slammed the door shut.

Directly isolate Qin Anbo outside!

Yu Yonghuai snorted coldly, looked at Qin Anbo who looked like a dead dog, cursed him and said he deserved it, then strode away with Xingxing.

However, in the middle of the night, a fire broke out outside the Zhenxi General's Mansion, and the door of the mansion was slammed heavily!

The concierge opened the door in a fog, only to see people from Shuntian Prefecture rushing in and asking where Zhenxi General Yu Yonghuai was.

The Yu family was half awakened.

Xingxing's courtyard was closest to the main courtyard, so naturally she was woken up as well.

She heard the commotion outside, so she quickly put on her clothes and went out to see what was going on, only to discover that it was people from Shuntian Prefecture who came to "invite" her elder brother to go to the government office to answer questions.

Xingxing was all confused.

The Yu family almost exploded.

Instead, Huai Ge'er comforted them, saying that it was okay, that the people from Shuntian Prefecture only asked him to go for questioning, that he had not committed any crime, and that he would be released after the questioning, and that they could just wait for him to come back.

Li Chunhua was so anxious that she cried and insisted on going with them. Mrs. Wei made a decision and said, "Let's go, let's all go!"

The messenger from Shuntian Prefecture who came to "invite" Huai Ge'er was still a little hesitant, and Mrs. Wei immediately brought up her identity as a third-rank lady.

She has an imperial decree!

Li Chunhua seemed to have remembered something and quickly held back her tears: "And me, I am also a fifth-rank lady, a fifth-rank concubine..."

When Huai'er saw that his grandmother and mother were so frightened, he thought that they would not be able to sleep well at home, so he decided to go with him.

Anyway, Huai Ge'er knew in his heart that he had done nothing wrong, so he was naturally not afraid of being brought to trial by the government.

The Shuntian Prefecture's police were at a loss as to what to do, and ended up taking half of the Yu family back to Shuntian Prefecture.

Although it was the middle of the night, the Shuntian Prefecture's government office was brightly lit. In the empty lobby, a woman was crying bitterly. Her cry was so sad that it could be heard, and everyone who heard it felt a little sad.

Yu Yonghuai and the others could already hear the crying before they even reached the lobby.

Xingxing was wrapped in the tent, her heart skipping a beat.

She recognized this voice. Wasn't it the voice of Mrs. Qin Anbo?

Li Chunhua hugged her son's arm in fear and said, "Brother Huai, don't bully someone else's girl. The girl is here to visit us, right?"

She is crying so miserably, could it be that her son has let her down?

Yu Yonghuai was speechless: "Mom, what are you thinking about?"

Having said that, he took the lead and strode towards the court.

The yamen runners of Shuntian Prefecture secretly watched Yu Yonghuai's fearless look and thought that since the Zhenxi general had a clear conscience, this matter should have nothing to do with him.

What a pity, someone from above has said that this time General Zhenxi will have to suffer a little.

These deserters did not dare to do anything too extreme. They could only trouble General Zhenxi a little in the process and go to the Yu family with great fanfare to ask for someone - this could be considered as making General Zhenxi suffer, right?

When Yu Yonghuai walked into the court, the people of the Yu family followed closely behind him. However, they were not allowed to enter the court without permission, so they could only stop at the doorstep.

Only then did everyone realize that the person crying miserably was a woman, who was lying on a corpse with its eyes open, crying so hard that her whole body was shaking.

The Yu family didn't expect to see a corpse right away and were all shocked.

But Li Chunhua was carefree and recovered quickly. She immediately shouted, "Hey, isn't this Madam Qin Anbo? ... Then who is this body..."

Li Chunhua took a breath of cool air.

No one answered her, only the woman's crying voice echoed faintly in the empty court.

Xing Xing stared at the corpse on the ground.

A few hours ago, the corpse was still cursing her elder brother and Madam An in anger, but now it was lying there with its eyes wide open, looking dead in a miserable state.

If not Qin Anbo, then who else could it be?

Xingxing quietly took a step forward and stood on tiptoe to carefully observe Qin Anbo's body.

There was a deep wound on Qin Anbo's throat, so deep that the bone was visible. He was covered in blood. It seemed that he had been killed by someone cutting his throat.

While Xing Xing was looking at the body of Qin Anbo, the prefect of Shuntian was already asking Huai Ge'er about the case in a friendly manner.

The governor of Shuntian Prefecture was a third-rank official, and Huai Ge'er was also a third-rank official. Although it was more difficult to be promoted to a civil official position than a military official, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture treated Huai Ge'er with great courtesy because he was a young general who was favored by the emperor.

"General Yu, I am sorry to bother you by asking you to come here in the middle of the night." Shuntian Prefecture Governor said politely, "Someone in that alley said that they saw you and Qin Anbo had a conflict yesterday evening, and you even beat Qin Anbo... As a result, the night watchman found Qin Anbo dead at the entrance of the alley in the middle of the night. Therefore, I specially asked General Yu to come and inquire about the situation."

Yu Yonghuai nodded and said, "I see. But when I saw the people from Shuntian Prefecture coming to the general's mansion to arrest someone, I thought I had committed some serious crime of treason."

The sarcasm in these words was clear. But Shuntian Prefecture Governor could only pretend not to hear it and laughed: "...I think the people below didn't convey it clearly. General Yu is magnanimous, so don't bother with them."

The Shuntian prefect can't do anything about it.

Someone above him had instructed him to make things difficult for Yu Yonghuai, but the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture knew that General Yu was a big shot in the eyes of the emperor at the moment, and if he, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, made things difficult for him, it would leave a heavy impression.

We can only hint to those yamen runners and ask them to just put on a show for outsiders to see.

"…So, what does General Yu think about the death of Qin Anbo?" The prefect of Shuntian quickly skipped the topic.

Yu Yonghuai curled his lips. He could probably guess the motive behind "Little devil is hard to pester". However, he was more concerned about how Qin Anbo died suddenly, and was too lazy to talk to Shuntian prefect about the previous incident: "... If you ask me, I can only say that I have no opinion. Qin Anbo and I did fight before, but he insulted me, and I just threw him aside and took my sister away. Now seeing Qin Anbo covered in blood, the prefect can't say that I threw him to death, right?"

Mrs. Qin Anbo suddenly raised her head, her face full of tears.

Not long after her daughter turned one, and before she gave birth to a legitimate son, Qin Anbo died.

How could she defend the Qin Anbo Mansion when surrounded by wolves? !

"It is also possible that your uncle discovered your affair with someone else, so you killed someone to silence him!" Mrs. Qin Anbo cried.
