Chapter 82 82. Confession?(2/2)

The dignified third son-in-law of Prime Minister Xiao's residence, the third prince-in-law appointed by Yubi, had just been issued for a few days, and before the red seal on the list had dried, he was accused of being the mastermind of the murder!

There is no news more shocking than this!

Therefore, people in the streets and alleys of Jingyue City were talking about it, adding fuel to the fire and spreading jealousy about it.

"Kurihara, besides Juxian Tower, where else can we have a good conversation without being disturbed?" Yu'er asked Kurihara.

The fat man Qi Ruhuan in Juxian Building is very suspicious. Besides, there was such a big fuss last time. This time I didn't bring someone who can keep accounts, so it's hard to go there again.

"This is not easy to handle, Tianwaiquan!" Kurihara said, "Clean, pure, enough!"

"Okay, then let's go to Tianwai Spring." Yu'er said.

Kurihara left first, Yu'er took Xiaomi behind, and then entered the gate of Tianwaiquan.

Yu Su had already seen it from upstairs. He turned around and smiled and said to You Jue who was sitting in the room: "It just happened that I came to Tianwai Spring."

You Jue raised his eyes and looked at her: "Which room are you in?"

Yu'er and Xiaomi were waiting at Tianwaiquan, and Kurihara found Chi Lin.

Chi Lin looked worried and troubled, with no hint of joy at all.

Logically speaking, no matter what happened, no one should be more happy than him and raise a glass to celebrate.

"What's wrong with you? Your face is drooping?" Yu'er asked curiously.

"That's right. The third princess's consort has become a prisoner. Aren't you happy yet?" Kurihara also said.

Xiaomi sat next to him and just drank tea.

After walking this way, I was scorched by the scorching sun, and it seemed as if all the moisture on my body had been evaporated.

However, this tea is really delicious!

Fragrant and thirst quenching!

"How is the second prince?" Chi Lin asked first without answering.

"He is fine. The epidemic has been eliminated. Don't worry." Yu'er said.

Then he explained the general situation.

"Thank you both so much!" Chi Lin said to them both.

"You're welcome." Yu'er waved her hand and said, "Tell me, why is your face so unhappy?"

"Ziyu can't kill someone!" Chi Lin said with a dark face.

"Ziyu?" Yu'er thought for a while and asked, "You mean the third son of the Xiao family?"

Chi Lin nodded.

"Everyone can kill, why can't he?" Kurihara took a big sip of tea and wiped his mouth.

The waiter who came in to replenish water and make tea took in several breaths when he saw how they were drinking tea.

Even gods can drink this tea from Tianwaiquan.

Why are they like donkeys?

If you don't know how to drink tea, don't come to Tianwaiquan. You will waste such good tea and water in vain.

"I have known Ziyu for more than ten years. He is fond of literature but not martial arts. He has a gentle nature and can only be kind to others. How could he do such a thing of buying and killing people?" Chi Lin said.

"The yamen can't just arrest people, right? You said it's impossible for him to pay to kill people. Do you have any evidence?" Kurihara said.

Chi Lin shook his head dejectedly, and then said: "There must be twists and turns in this, I must find out!"

"Has your brain been bitten by a donkey?" Kurihara looked at him in disbelief.

"What?" Chi Lin said.

"The third young master Xiao is in prison. Aren't you and the third princess just right? If you have to fish him out, the third princess will be his!" Kurihara looked at Chi Lin as if he were looking at an unconscious elm.

I just want to knock him out and figure it out.

"These are two different things." Chi Lin only said.

"It's time for you to sober up your mind." Kurihara said, walking over, holding his head with both hands and shaking it vigorously.

Chi Lin tried to break free, but he was so shaken that his eyes were blinded.

"Okay, Kurihara, let him go." Yu'er stepped forward and pulled Kurihara's hand away.

Chi Linfang was rescued and held his head with one hand, only to feel that the tables, chairs and screens in the room were still shaking.

"How did the third young master of the Xiao family end up in prison?" Yu'er asked Chi Lin.

"Sister Yu'er, I'm hungry." Xiao Mi touched her bulging belly and suddenly remembered that she hadn't eaten lunch yet.

"Waiter, is there anything to eat?" Yu'er called out, and a waiter hurriedly came in and said, "Yes, sir, please wait a moment."

After a while, several plates of exquisite snacks came in.

Some are made into fashionable flowers, some are made into pavilions, and some are made into ladies, longevity stars, and fairy peaches.

"This, this is a snack?" Xiaomi said in disbelief, looking at the exquisitely carved and exquisite various snacks on the table.

"These are our special snacks from Tianwaiquan. Sir, please feel free to use them." The waiter replied, holding back his laughter and went out.

"If you have it, eat it quickly." Yu'er patted her head and said.

He turned around and asked Chi Lin: "How did you get into the prison? Please tell me first."

Chi Lin explained the general situation.

Three days ago, Xiao Hengqi, the third son of the Xiao family, went to Juxian Tower for a banquet.

At the door of Juxian Tower, an old beggar grabbed his sleeve and insisted that he was a murderer and that his son had been imprisoned for him.

"Old lady, you must have recognized the wrong person." Xiao Hengqi said awkwardly.

"The old beggar's eyes have long since lost sight, but even if your voice turns to ashes, I will never hear it wrong!" the old beggar tightly grabbed his sleeve and said.

Meng Han, who was attending the banquet with Xiao Hengqi, stood up and pushed the old beggar away, shouting: "Where did this crazy woman come from? How could the third son of the dignified Prime Minister Xiao's house be a murderer?"

As he spoke, he waved to his accompanying soldiers: "Quick, quick, get this old woman away."

Then some soldiers came up and beat the old beggar away.

"Murder! God will never forgive you! I want to avenge my son!" the old beggar shouted while struggling.

That day, there were people beating drums outside the Yamen of Qianling Mansion to express their grievances, accusing the Prime Minister and the Third Young Master of procuring the murder.

If the statement is conclusive, the physical evidence will be presented in court.

Zheng Desheng, the head of Qianling Mansion, went to Xiao Mansion and escorted Xiao Hengqi back to the government office.

The crime is: bribed criminals to murder people.

"A murder attempt? Who did he kill?" Yu'er, Kurihara asked.

"It's said to be a drug supervisor named Meng." Chi Lin said.

After hearing this, Yu'er asked, "Don't you know the man named Meng?"

"I don't know him." Chi Lin shook his head, "This is the first time I heard about this person after this incident came out."

"Then what does this have to do with the old beggar's son?" Yu'er asked again.

"The one who committed the murder was the old beggar's son." Chi Lin replied.

"So the old beggar wants to save her son?" Kurihara probably understood the connection.

However, Yu'er still felt strange: "Isn't that old beggar in Juxian Tower blind? How could she recognize Young Master Xiao? And she also identified him as the mastermind?"

"Chi Lin is not very clear about this, but she produced a physical evidence." Chi Lin said.

"What kind of physical evidence is it? Is it really credible?" Yu'er asked.

"It's a jade pendant." Chi Lin said.

Xiao Mi had already eaten half of the snacks on the table, and still refused to stop. He handed a piece to Yu'er and said, "Sister Yu'er, it's really delicious. Why don't you eat some too."

"Why don't you give me a piece? I'm hungry too." Kurihara smiled at Xiaomi.

"Don't you have any hands yourself? Why do you want me to help you get it!" Xiaomi pouted at him.

"Stingy." Kurihara said, picking up two pieces and throwing them into his mouth.

"Don't eat too much, or you'll burst it." Yu'er smiled at Xiaomi.

He turned around and asked Chi Lin, still puzzled: "How can you be sure with just a jade pendant?"

"It is said that the jade pendant was Ziyu's personal belongings." Chi Lin frowned.

"Then we can't conclude this, right?" Kurihara also felt strange.

Chi Lin suddenly fell silent.

"What's wrong?" Yu'er asked strangely.

"Zi Yu, he recognized it..." Chi Lin said, stood up, and punched the window lattice.
