Xie Yuan was held hostage. The officers and soldiers were wary and did not dare to swing their swords at the suspect, but they could not let him go. After all, he was a remnant of Prince Ping, and he was a wanted criminal ordered by the court several times.
The situation was deadlocked for a while.
Xie Yuan felt the pain in his neck and realized what a stupid decision he had made.
But at this time, he had no choice. If Lin Huzi was caught, he would also die.
Lin Huzi is the scarred man.
Jing Zhaoyin was protected by several people and came forward, confronting the scarred man head-on.
"Lin Huzi, I have found out your identity. There is no need to hide anymore. You should have been sentenced to exile, but you don't repent, and you even tried to murder the official's family members, and even planned to murder the imperial officials. I advise you It’s best to stay put, otherwise, you will harm your family.”
Lin Huzi was not afraid at all, but laughed twice: "Okay, then you'd better kill my nine tribes! But the prerequisite is that you have to know where my nine tribes are."
Lin Huzi was an orphan, so he was naturally not afraid of his move.
Jing Zhaoyin was not in a hurry and said: "Even if you don't want to live anymore, then you don't care about your sweetheart? Do you want her to be buried with you?"
Lin Huzi's expression changed: "What did you say?"
Jing Zhaoyin looked unfathomable: "It's what you think. I advise you to put down your weapons. As long as you confess frankly, I will ask for mercy. At least, I can let you live to see the world." To your sweetheart."
Lin Huzi hesitated.
However, it was only for a moment.
He has been licking blood on the tip of a knife for so many years, so he naturally knows some of the tricks of court officials.
"Go away! Otherwise I will kill him! You don't really want to get the blood of a court official on my hands, do you?"
Lin Huzi said, pushing Xie Yuan forward two steps.
Jing Zhaoyin and others had to step back. They really didn't dare to confront him head-on. If Xie Yuanzhen died here, they would be speechless and unable to explain.
"Lin Huzi, we can't let you go. At worst, we'll just waste it like this. I want to see, who of us can outlast the other?"
When Jing Zhaoyin said this, Xie Rongen was already in position on the roof dozens of steps away.
It wasn't that he didn't dare to get closer, it was because someone had gone up earlier and was noticed by Lin Huzi, who then forced him down.
Xie Rongen drew his bow and nocked an arrow. The second uncle said that it would be best to save the life of the scarred man. After all, some people had to be bitten out by him.
Jing Zhaoyin was responsible for diverting Lin Huzi's attention from the front. Xie Yuan also grunted from time to time. At that moment, the arrow in Xie Rongen's hand left the string!
Whoosh!
"Well!"
Lin Huzi cried out in pain, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground.
The officers and soldiers swarmed forward and captured Lin Huzi without any effort.
As for Xie Yuan, he was really injured on his neck. Although the blood didn't flow much, it still looked a bit scary.
The most important thing is that Xie Yuan cannot leave now that he has not gotten rid of the suspicion.
The Jingzhao Mansion is bustling, and the Xie Mansion on Anhe Street is in chaos.
Xie Rongen had made a great contribution this time, and Xie Xiuwen thought that maybe he could mention it so that Xie Rongen could be promoted to a higher level.
Xie Yuan was brought back to Jingzhao Mansion. Not only that, the entire Zhuangzi people were taken into custody by Zuo Xiaowei, and Zhuangzi was surrounded. Such a major event would naturally attract everyone in the capital to know.
Xie Huaiyi's eldest grandson actually got in touch with King Ping's old tribe. What does he want to do?
Such news spread back to Xie Mansion on Anhe Street, and Xie Huaiyi fainted in anger.
After some tossing, Xie Huaiyi finally came to his senses.
"Quick! How is Ayuan doing now? Can you bring him back?"
"Father, Ayuan is still in Jingzhao Mansion now. Jingzhao Yin is currently investigating the case. He was ordered to investigate the case. Ayuan was at the scene of the crime. Even if we go there, we won't be able to get him back."
Xie Huaiyi was so angry that he clenched his fists and beat the bed, and said angrily: "Then we have to find a way to get him back. Also, we must find a way to see A Yuan and tell him not to talk nonsense no matter what, just say that he went to Zhuangzi I went up to do some work, and then I accidentally discovered Lin Huzi. Yes, there is also Zhuangzi, and they have to send someone over there immediately to ventilate themselves, so we must not let anything slip."
"Yes, father, don't worry. His son has already ordered someone to make arrangements. Now we can only wait for news."
Hearing these words, Xie Huaiyi was really relieved.
Fortunately, my son is not an idiot.
Xie Yuan was injured on his neck. After the doctor gave him medicine, Xie Yuan raised his finger to point to his injury, then waved his hands and shook his head, indicating that he could not speak for the time being.
The location of the injury was such that Jing Zhaoyin had no way to judge whether Xie Yuan was really unable to speak, so he could only interrogate the others for the time being.
The head of the village and several minor stewards were taken to the government office. However, these people were all sons of the Xie family. The lives of the young and old in the family were controlled by their master. Naturally, they did not dare to betray their master. In addition, the previous people secretly Coming over to deliver the letter, they immediately understood what to say so that the young master could avoid this disaster.
"Master, please investigate clearly! We don't know when a thief came to live in Zhuangzi. If our young master hadn't come to check the accounts, this thief would not have appeared. Please investigate, sir."
"Master must make the decision for us! No matter how brave we are, we don't dare to harbor imperial criminals! I don't know where this guy was hiding before. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid we will have nightmares when we sleep at night Yes."
"Please ask the great master to make the decision for us!"
The cry after cry was just to tell Jing Zhaoyin that they were all innocent.
There is no evidence anyway, so what if they don't admit it?
At this time, they were extremely lucky that Lin Huzi had been secretly hidden by them before. Otherwise, Zhuangzi would have leaked it with so many mouths.
"Quiet! You answer whatever I ask. If you dare to disrupt the order of the court again, don't blame me!"
The people below didn't dare to speak and could only cower like quails.
Xie Yuan finally met the Xie family here. After some whispers, Xie Yuan also understood how he could escape safely.
As for Lin Huzi...
Xie Yuan told what he thought about Lin Huzi's good friend. Jing Zhaoyin could take advantage of this kind of weakness, and so could they.
Xie Xiuwen did not interfere in the affairs of Jingzhao Mansion, but Fang Hu was a little anxious.
"Master, you really don't send someone to warn you? Or send someone to watch? If Lin Huzi dies in prison, or if they make a confession, won't our efforts be in vain?"
The corner of Xie Xiuwen's lips curled up: "Don't worry, it won't be in vain. Just let people inquire about the progress of the case. After all, we are also the victims."
Fang Hu didn't understand what his master was going to do, so he retreated wisely.
Xie Xiuwen took a sip of tea and muttered to himself: "You have to abide by your duties so that you can be an official for a long time. You must not touch things that you shouldn't touch!"
