After rebirth, dribbling and leaving

Xie Xiaolian knew that he acted impulsively, but now that his family was in this state, and many things were caused by himself, he just felt guilty and wanted to do something within his ability!

His eyes were red, and he looked at his parents helplessly, then he bowed to the yamen runner apologetically and said:

"I was reckless. I apologize to everyone here. Please treat my parents well and don't let them suffer!"

It was the yamen runner who spoke up again, his expression looking better: "We won't abuse the suspects for no reason, please rest assured!"

The meaning is very clear, as long as the suspect doesn't cause any trouble, we are too lazy to meddle in his business!

When the yamen runners took the two men away, Liu Er, as an old servant, was worried, so he naturally followed them!

Xie Xiaolian looked at Aunt Ke, his heart filled with anxiety:

"When will big brother come back? Should we send someone to look for him?"

"Of course we do. Ask Liuzi to go to the academy to call him back, and we'll discuss it later!"

Liuzi was Xie Xiaolian's servant. Although he was small and thin, he was very smart. Upon hearing the order, he hurried to the back door and drove the carriage out to look for someone!

This whole process took more than an hour, mainly because Xie Xuanping had been having a hard time in the School Administration since he divorced Su Qingling. His former colleagues had distanced themselves from him and even tried to make things difficult for him from time to time!

Even if you need to take leave for something important, you must finish the work at hand first!

After returning home and listening to his second brother's story, Xie Xuanping's heart sank to the bottom!

If it was really just intentional killing of his siblings when he was young, he could still take it into consideration because he was young at that time. But he felt that things were not that simple. If he cut into this matter, he would probably end up with a lot of trouble. It would be better if there was some other case to be brought up!

However, there is no other way at this time, we can only take it one step at a time. Now let's go to the government office to find out something!

Now Xie Xuanping was the only one in charge of the mansion. He looked up at Aunt Ke, went back to his study, opened the locked drawer, which contained dozens of silver bills and small change. He put them in his arms and went out with Hu Sui!

When he arrived outside the yamen, he wanted to ask the bailiffs standing at the gate, but he saw the people standing on both sides standing solemnly with fierce looks on their faces, looking extremely vicious!

"May I ask this yamen runner, were there a couple invited into the yamen just now?"

The yamen runner who was questioned did not get angry and replied: "What do you mean by invited in? Only the suspects were arrested. I wonder if it is the couple you are talking about?"

Xie Xuanping was hesitant, but he had to ask again with a smile:

"Do you know what they have done? Who is the victim?"

The yamen runner glared at him with an impatient look on his face: "This is a yamen, not a vegetable market. I will tell you whatever you ask!"

Xie Xuanping smiled and took out a penny of silver from his purse: "This is a gift to you and your brothers to buy some wine!"

The yamen runner took the silver and his expression immediately improved. He put the silver in his pocket and whispered:

"I heard that the couple offended the Third Master of the Xie family, and his eldest brother was killed by them. There are witnesses, and we are just waiting to bring them to justice!"

Xie Xuanping felt like he was struck by lightning at this moment. He had been holding out for a glimmer of hope, but now he even had a witness. He was afraid that the case was a done deal!

Xie Xuanping wanted to see someone, but then he saw the yamen runner looking at him as if he were a monster, sneering:

"Are you dreaming? This case is under surveillance. I heard that the higher-ups have issued a strict order that no one is allowed to intercede! Although the Third Master of the Xie family is just a merchant, his brother is the Minister of Rites. They are from the same mother. How can he let the murderer who killed his brother go?"

Xie Xuanping's face turned pale. He thanked the yamen runner and returned home in a daze. When he reached the gate, he suddenly remembered the Minister of Rites - his second uncle, who was still living in the West Mansion, so he turned around and went to the West Gate!

When he arrived at the reception room, he met Xie Jing and respectfully performed the etiquette of a junior. Then he knelt on the ground with a sad face:

"Uncle, my father and mother have been taken to the government office. I'm afraid they will suffer a lot. I know they have done many things that are wrong to you, but they are all the blood of the Xie family after all. Please talk to my uncle and forgive them this time. From now on, you can ask them to do whatever they want!"

Xie Jing had a gloomy face and remained silent for a long time before he said:

"Although you are my nephew, you are sometimes worse than others... As for your third uncle, if you see him, don't call him that anymore. When he first framed me and expelled me from the Marquis' Mansion, he swore to be irreconcilable with the first branch of the family!"

He stopped talking, took a closer look, and continued, "Not only did your parents harm our brother, they also poisoned my aunt to death. As for whether there are other murders, I guess they will be found out in the follow-up investigation!"

Xie Xuanping was speechless for a moment. Although he could think of some shady things his parents had done, he could not imagine that he had a grudge against his second uncle and his uncle for killing his mother and brother. This would be difficult!

However, he always felt that if he wanted to save his parents, he could only seek a breakthrough from his second uncle! So he was determined, kneeling on the ground without getting up, crying:

"Uncle, I know that nothing I say will appease you. Just tell me what you want, and I will do my best to satisfy you!"

Then Xie Jing sneered, "You probably don't know yet, if a person has been treated harshly since childhood, suffered humiliation, hovered on the edge of life and death every day, his brother was killed, and his mother died tragically, what would you do? When you grow up and have the ability, will you try every possible way to seek revenge?"

Xie Xuanping didn't know how to answer, so he could only continue kneeling, trying hard to think of how to impress his second uncle!

However, there seemed to be no solution, which made him feel frustrated!

Xie Jing took a sip of tea, then narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Don't kneel here. If your parents have sentenced them, they will definitely be beheaded for the evil they have done! You should go back and prepare some clothes for them and find a way to send them to prison!"

Xie Xuanping had no choice but to get up first. His second uncle was temporarily unable to help, and he really had to send clothes to his parents!

"Uncle, I will go back to prepare things and come back to see you another day!"

After Xie Xuanping left, Shao came out from the back house, her eyes full of sarcasm:

"As the saying goes, like father, like daughter, like son. The son of a mouse knows how to dig holes. He is just like his father! He knows he is asking for something but he doesn't even have the most basic courtesy. It's just a box of ordinary snacks... He has been harboring evil thoughts for many years and he looks down on us, his illegitimate elders, from the bottom of his heart!"

Xie Jing chuckled: "Don't worry about these things, we just want to get what we want and achieve our goal! Then we won't have to worry about dealing with them!"

Xie Xuanping returned to the East Palace with a dejected look on his face. In the current situation, if there is no breakthrough, he is afraid that his parents will be executed!

Xie Xiaolian went back to his room to apply medicine because of the torn wounds on his body. Aunt Ke was waiting anxiously at this moment. When she saw the master's face, she knew something was wrong and her heart sank again!
