Chapter 261

Just when everyone was about to get up and leave the rest house, and continue to investigate the ancestor's house, suddenly an officer and soldier hurriedly came to report from outside the house, "Xing arrests the head, Gui Yuetian's dowry maid was killed, and the ancestor's house is in chaos." One group, Grandfather Zu please hurry to preside over the overall situation!"

"what?!"

Xing Shan and the others were startled suddenly, and their faces turned serious.

Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, another human life was added. If Zulong really did this, it would be too cruel and merciless.

Bu Yifan carefully looked at the expressions of everyone, and couldn't help but ask, "This...is this murder to silence?"

Everyone became silent, and their mood was extremely dignified.

If that's not murder, what is?

Apart from fearing that she would tell the truth, what other reason was there to kill a mere dowry maid?

With a gloomy face, Xing Shan said blankly: "No matter what, let's go to the ancestor's house first to see what's going on."

Everyone nodded, even though they knew it well at the moment, because there was no evidence, they couldn't do anything.

Under such circumstances, no matter what they do except going to watch the ancestor's performance, they will alert the enemy.

Under the leadership of the officers and soldiers, everyone came to the ancestral home very quickly. At this time, all the ancestral home looked filled with righteous indignation. From the head of the family to the servants, all of them turned blue with anger. Obviously, they all felt that someone had rushed into this matter. They followed their ancestral home, intending to persecute them.

Seeing the angry faces of these people, Xing Shan and the others inspected Tu'er's body first, then walked up to Zu Yiming, and asked, "Master Zu, what happened, why did Tu'er die?"

Seeing Xing Shan coming, Zu Yiming's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out and grabbed him, "You came just in time, come with me to Zhuo's house right now, and arrest them all!"

Xing Shan narrowed his eyes, looked at his expression up and down a few times, saw that his expression did not seem to be pretending, and immediately said: "Young Master Zu, you are joking, Zhuo Yuanhang is a dignified Minister of the Ministry of War, even if I am Shun The people of Tianfu are not qualified to arrest him without official documents from the court."

"Then what?!"

Zu Yiming exploded in an instant, "Should I just let him continue to kill my ancestors until he finally kills us all?!"

Seeing his collapse, Zhan Dabao said in a timely manner, "Master Zu is serious, the capital is at the foot of the emperor, no matter how arrogant the Zhuo family is, it will not do anything to destroy the family. What's more, your ancestors have been loyal for generations, I think they should not be so blatant."

"Isn't that blatant enough?"

Zu Yiming suddenly became anxious, "He kidnapped my newlyweds and killed her maid. No one else would have let this matter go!"

Xing Shan pretended to be confused and asked, "But why did they kill Tu'er? What good does this do to them?"

"What else could it be for?"

Zu Yiming said angrily, "It must be because Tu'er found evidence for me, proving that they sent someone to take my wife away, so they killed and silenced, wanting to take revenge on Tu'er!"

Having said this, Zu Yiming became irritable, "Too bad, even Tu'er is dead, it seems that my wife must be in danger."

As he said that, he grabbed Xing Shan and asked him eagerly: "Didn't you arrest Zhuo Hang and return to Shuntian Mansion today? How about it? Did the interrogation find anything? Did that guy admit where he hid my wife? "

Seeing his longing gaze, Xing Shan's eyes flickered a few times, and he said guiltyly: "Mr. Zhuo...has been picked up by Mr. Zhuo."

"what?!"

Zu Yiming's face changed, and his whole body exploded instantly, "How could you let him pick it up? Zhuo Hang didn't tell me where my lady is, so you let them go?!"

Seeing his unbelievable appearance, Zhan Dabao coughed lightly, and explained for Xingshan: "Master Zhuo is a first-rank official. He personally issued the order. How can we not obey? What's more, Mr. Zhuo has never admitted Miss Gui was taken away by him, and we have no other evidence except this veil, so we can only let her go."

"What do you mean besides this veil, isn't that veil considered as a mountain of ironclad evidence?"

Zu Yiming stared at Xing Shan and the others in a daze, then slowly let go of Xing Shan's hands, and silently stepped back two steps, his eyes filled with disappointment towards Shun Tian Mansion.

"Grandpa said, it's impossible for your Shuntian Mansion to beat the Ministry of War. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that you really only have this little ability."

"What do you mean by this little skill?"

Zhan Dabao was very angry, "We in Shuntian Mansion have been busy for so many days on your ancestral family's case, and we didn't even have a good sleep. Early this morning, we were held accountable by the Ministry of War. Under pressure, we personally stopped Zhuo Hang's carriage and took him back to Shuntian Mansion. We have a clear conscience about this case, but your family should ask yourself whether this matter was really done by someone else!"

When these words came out, Xing Shan immediately yelled, "Dabao, what nonsense are you talking about?!"

Zhan Dabao choked, and realized that he had slipped his words. He immediately took two steps back and said guiltily, "I... I didn't say anything."

But it was already too late, Zu Long heard all their conversations, and stood up with a cold face, "What Master Zhan said, seems to mean that the thief of our ancestors is calling for a thief?"

Hearing this, Zu Yiming, who didn't understand what Zhan Dabao said at first, suddenly realized, glared at Zhan Dabao angrily, and cursed: "Did you make a mistake? It's okay if you don't dare to offend the Ministry of War!" Well, you even helped them beat them up and wronged our ancestral family's thieves for calling for a thief, are you still a thing in Shuntian Mansion?!"

Facing his scolding, Zhan Dabao pursed his lips, a little unconvinced and wanted to refute, but when he met Xing Shan's cold eyes, he shrunk his neck silently.

"Master Zu, you misunderstood."

Xing Shan bowed his hands to Zu Yiming and explained: "Dabao was just angry, so he spoke indiscriminately. You also know that after what happened, our Shuntian Mansion searched the capital day and night. Dabao, he He has a noble status and has never suffered like this, so it is inevitable that he will talk nonsense."

Hearing what he said, Zu Yiming snorted, and looked at Zhan Dabao with disdain, "It turns out that Master Kuo couldn't bear the suffering, so he went crazy here. Since you are so useless, why don't you be a fast catcher, go back and do it sooner." Your young master!"

Hearing his words, Zhan Dabao stomped his feet angrily, turned his head and left the ancestral home directly.

He was afraid that if he stayed here again, he would strangle this bastard to death!
