Chapter 123 The Xue Family Was Implicated
Xie Lixing accurately caught Yueli's foot that was kicking towards him and put her foot back on the bed. "Well, it's all my fault. I'll wipe it for you and then you can go to sleep, okay?"
Yueli snorted lightly, agreeing with what he said.
Since she had already lost face today, she might as well continue sleeping.
After Yueli fell asleep, Xie Lixing turned around and walked outside, looking at Qinyin who was guarding the door, "Mrs. Wu is here today?"
"Yes, she seems to have something urgent for the princess to attend to."
"I see."
After hearing Xie Lixing's words, Qinyin knew that Xie Lixing would handle it and would not let this problem appear in front of Yueli.
Qin Yin nodded sagely.
Xie Lixing left the room and headed straight for Beiyuan where the Xue family lived.
Seeing Xie Lixing coming, the Xue family was a little flattered, but they were still very glad that Xie Lixing came.
"Meet the Regent."
"Grandpa is exempt from the gift."
Xie Lixing raised his hand to help Mr. Xue up and let him sit down.
After Mr. Xue sat down, Xie Lixing looked at Wu Qin and said, "My mother-in-law came to visit us today. Unfortunately, Yueli was sleeping soundly. I made my mother-in-law laugh at her." As soon as he opened his mouth, the Xue family knew that he was here to solve a problem for them.
The Xue family didn't hold much hope in the first place.
They thought that Yueli was sleeping soundly because Xie Lixing and Yueli did not want to stand up for the Xue family, and they felt a little disappointed at the time.
But I also feel that it shouldn’t be done.
If they really didn't want to care about the Xue family, there would be no need for the two of them to go to Jingshan to bring the Xue family back and rehabilitate the Xue family.
Yueli should really be sleeping.
Xie Lixing’s words just now also confirm this point.
Wu Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Xie Lixing and said, "It's like this. Your eldest brother went out today and was arrested for molesting someone."
Without waiting for Xie Lixing to ask, Wu Qin told Xie Lixing the purpose of going to see Yueli today.
When talking about the eldest brother of the Xue family, Xie Lixing frowned slightly, and then he realized that the eldest brother of the Xue family was implicated by him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be arrested for no reason.
The eldest brother of the Xue family is a very upright person and it is impossible for him to do something to tease others. If you have to say it, it must be someone doing it on purpose.
"I will investigate it thoroughly, mother-in-law, don't worry."
Xie Lixing came here to ask what happened to the Xue family. Now that he knew the truth, he naturally wanted to go see the eldest brother of the Xue family so that he could have a plan to save them.
Xie Lixing did not stay in Beiyuan, but went directly to the yamen where the eldest brother of the Xue family was arrested.
"Meet the Regent."
The person guarding the eldest brother of the Xue family is a military general with a very arrogant attitude.
His actions were telling Xie Lixing that even if he came today, he could not take the eldest brother of the Xue family away.
"My prince is here to visit my brother-in-law. Could you please give him some favor, sir?" The seventh brother understood and stepped forward, untied a bag of silver from his waist and handed it to the other party.
Originally, looking at the other party's attitude, Lao Qi thought that the other party would not accept the money and would just drive them away.
As a result, the other party took the purse, opened it, looked at the silver inside, and weighed it a few times, "Okay, I understand, you guys go back and wait for news."
Old Seven: “?”
What happened?
You want to take the money without doing anything?
It might be easy to take other people's money, but it is not easy to take their prince's money.
"Kill him."
Xie Lixing spat out two words without blinking.
The other party didn't expect that Xie Lixing didn't even say a word, and the first thing he said when he came here was to kill him.
"Your Highness, I was wrong. I will open the door for you right now. I will open the door for you right now!" The other party knelt on the ground and begged Xie Lixing to let him go.
Xie Lixing's eyes fell on him for a moment, and the look in his eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person, made the gatekeeper shudder.
There is no doubt that there is someone behind him.
But he didn't want to lose his life at this time!
Lao Qi especially hated people who wanted everything. When the other party knelt down and begged for mercy, he stepped forward, snatched the purse back, and then unlocked the key from his waist.
"Wouldn't it be over if you just obeyed earlier?"
He dares to offend anyone without considering whether he has the fate to do so.
Xie Lixing didn't even look at him and went straight into the dungeon.
This is where serious criminals are detained in Beijing. The environment is harsh and the jailer's interrogation methods are even more brutal. The eldest brother of the Xue family would be exhausted after being detained here for one night.
As Xie Lixing walked inside, he could hear many people groaning in pain, as well as the sounds of whips and screams from those being interrogated.
The further you go inside, the louder the screams become.
When he reached the end, Xie Lixing saw the eldest brother of the Xue family who was being interrogated. He was hanging on the cross with his skin torn and flesh exposed. He no longer looked like a human being.
These were just caught today.
Hearing the voice, the jailer turned around. When he saw Xie Lixing, his expression instantly turned fawning. "Greetings, Lord Regent. I wonder what brings you here today?"
"Seventh."
Xie Lixing didn't even reply to them, but just called them Lao Qi.
The seventh brother stepped forward, kicked away the two jailers guarding the eldest brother of the Xue family, untied the eldest brother of the Xue family and carried him on his back.
"I will go to see your lord in person. If there is no solid evidence to prove my brother-in-law's guilt, I will kill everyone involved." Xie Lixing said this without any warning in his tone.
When he said this, it was as if he was chatting with someone.
Commonplace.
The jailer looked at Xie Lixing in shock. He didn't expect him to be so arrogant. No matter who was behind him, Xie Lixing would take away whoever he wanted.
But he didn't dare to talk back now.
Once you talk back——
The jailer's eyes fell on Lao Qi's drawn sword, and he silently took a step back.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
Xie Lixing didn't even look at the jailer and went straight to see Lord Xu, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple. He wanted to ask him if he had any evidence.
The Dali Temple Minister, who was sleeping at home, jumped up from the bed instantly when he heard that Xie Lixing was coming. He hurriedly put on his clothes and came to the yamen.
When he arrived at the Dali Temple in dishevel, he saw Xie Lixing sitting in the first seat, playing with a teacup in his hand. Next to him was a wounded patient lying on the ground, being treated by a doctor.
The Dali Temple official stepped forward blankly and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Xie Lixing raised his eyes nonchalantly, "Master Xu asked me to wait."
Xie Lixing's words made Lord Xu shudder. He hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Highness, is there some urgent case that has brought you to the Dali Temple so late?"
"certainly."
Xie Lixing looked at Lao Qi who was standing beside him.
The seventh brother understood and immediately told Xie Lixing about the arrest of the eldest brother of the Xue family. They came to ask if there was any evidence in the case of the eldest brother of the Xue family.
If someone tortures someone without any evidence, Xie Lixing will not let him go.
The Dali Temple's eyes widened immediately, and he looked at Xie Lixing in disbelief, "Your Highness, you really misunderstood me. I didn't do anything!"
This matter cannot be blamed on him!
He knows nothing!
"Oh? Aren't you the one in charge of the Dali Temple?"
