Chapter five hundred and forty-ninth set up bureau

On that day, Zhao Jin ordered Xiao Jiashu to take charge of the case.

When Chu Xiao learned the news, he also received a letter from Zhao Jin.

After he read it, he burned the letter and sat in front of the case for a long time.

After a while, a long sigh sounded, "I hope he doesn't really get confused."

Xiao Jiashu took this case very seriously. On the day Zhao Jin issued the order, he called Chu Xiao and Governor Chen Keng to inquire carefully about the current progress of the case.

The next day, Xiao Jiashu went to Chu Xiao's house again.

"Master Shangshu." Chu Xiao respectfully welcomed Xiao Jiashu into the mansion.

He was about to take the person to the flower hall when he heard the other party's voice, "I'm here to discuss the case with you. Let's find a safer place."

Chu Xiao's eyes moved slightly and he said with a smile: "Then let's go to the study."

With that said, Chu Xiao led Xiao Jiashu the way.

He winked at a servant while the other party was not paying attention.

Just as he opened the door to the study and walked in with Xiao Jiashu, the voice of the servant came from behind.

"My lord, something is wrong! My lady accidentally fell into the lake!"

Chu Xiao was slightly startled at first, then immediately turned around and asked, "What happened? Why did he fall into the lake without any problems?"

Chu Xiao's voice was very urgent, and his eyes were full of worry, causing Xiao Jiashu's eyes to fall on him and pause slightly.

"When the lady was passing by the lake, she tripped over something and accidentally fell down."

After hearing this, Chu Xiao immediately walked out in a hurry.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered that Xiao Jiashu was still here. He turned around with a hesitant look on his face, opening and closing his mouth several times.

Xiao Jiashu understood and said considerately: "It's important to go see Madam first."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Chu Xiao bowed his hands to Xiao Jiashu apologetically. Because he was impatient, he couldn't take care of much, so he turned around and hurried towards the backyard.

This was the first time Xiao Jiashu saw Chu Xiao in such a panic. He shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that he and his wife have such a good relationship."

He raised his hand and waved, "Close the door. I'll just wait here."

"yes."

Xiao Jiashu was Chu Xiao's boss, and the servants of the Chu Mansion did not dare to show any slightness. They brewed the best tea and placed it in Xiao Jiashu's hand before carefully leaving.

Xiao Jiashu was not polite and sat down directly in front of the table, took a sip of tea, and then turned his attention to the table.

There are quite a few things on the desk, including folders, documents, and files.

Xiao Jiashu's eyes swept over and suddenly froze somewhere.

He put down the tea cup and took out the rice paper that was half pressed by the file.

What is written above is actually evidence of the cases committed by the Yao family?!

Xiao Jiashu was horrified. According to the rumors in the market, Chu Xiao had actually obtained evidence of what the Yao family had committed?

Xiao Jiashu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly flipped through the messy desk and found several pieces of evidence under the file.

He looked carefully and his expression became more and more ugly. These evidences could not convict all the charges, but they were enough to convict most of them.

In other words, even if Cui Nong's case fails, relying on these few things, the Yao family will still collapse.

No.

Xiao Jiashu shook his head, Cui Nong's case was not as serious as these things.

Cui Nong's case is just one of them. At most, it will hurt the vitality of the Yao family and sacrifice one Yao Qiran.

But these things involve most of the Yao family. Once they are taken out, the Yao family will probably lose them all!

Holding these things, Xiao Jiashu felt that what he was holding in his hands was the lifeblood of the Yao family.

Do you want to take it away?

But if he takes the things away, Chu Xiao will definitely know that it was him.

If it is not taken away and destroyed, the Yao family will not be able to survive, and the reform of scientific research will be unstoppable, and the aristocratic family will be completely at a disadvantage.

Xiao Jiashu struggled endlessly, and his fingers couldn't help but increase their strength.

After a while, Xiao Jiashu hurriedly stuffed all these things into his arms. After struggling for a moment, Xiao Jiashu's eyes fell on the candle next to him.

Perhaps in order to make the room brighter, candles were specially lit in the study.

Xiao Jiashu swallowed, stood up and walked towards Huo Zhu.

The firelight illuminated his face. Xiao Jiashu slowly took out the evidence from his arms and placed it on the firelight.

The flame instantly wrapped around a corner of the rice paper, and the sound of burning mixed with Xiao Jiashu's rapid breathing.

"Bang!"

Xiao Jiashu suddenly looked up.

The door to the study room was pushed open with great force, and Chu Xiao stared angrily!

Xiao Jiashu subconsciously turned his head to look at the burning candle.

It’s not finished burning yet!

But it was already too late. Chu Xiao strode over, picked up the inkstone full of ink on the table, and poured it directly on it.

Xiao Jiashu looked at Chu Xiao in shock.

The unburned paper was splashed with ink and stained black, making it impossible to see anything on it.

"Master Shangshu, what are you doing?" Chu Xiao didn't panic at all. He glanced at the extinguished candle and looked at Xiao Jiashu intently.

"My officer..." Xiao Jiashu forced himself to calm down.

He was caught red-handed, so there was no point in trying to quibble. Fortunately, these things had been burned. What could Chu Xiao do if he saw them? There was no evidence.

"Chu Xiao, haven't you already seen it?"

"Sir Shangshu, it was you who told us to enforce the law impartially, but now, is this the way Sir Shangshu enforces the law impartially?"

After being questioned by his subordinates, Xiao Jiashu showed an unhappy look on his face, "Chu Xiao, you should understand that whether it is Cui Nong or the other cases of the Yao family."

"Essentially, they are nothing more than a tool for the fight between His Royal Highness and the aristocratic families."

Chu Xiao laughed angrily and threw the inkstone back on the table with a loud noise.

"Master Shangshu, all the evil deeds committed by the Yao family are true, and the Yao family deserves to be punished for their crimes!"

"Even though it is just a tool for fighting, His Highness the Crown Prince's move has brought justice to the people, while the Master's move has blatantly shielded a group of murderers for the benefit of a wealthy family!"

Chu Xiao said the last five words with gritted teeth.

Xiao Jiashu's face turned red, "Chu Xiao! Don't forget, I am your boss!"

"It was true before, but not necessarily anymore." Chu Xiao smiled.

"What do you mean?" The color on Xiao Jiashu's face faded a little, and he finally discovered the violation.

Chu Xiao just used ink to put out the fire candle and indirectly destroyed the evidence, probably not because of a moment of panic, but because he didn't care about the burned evidence at all!

"This thing is just copied."

After finishing his words, Chu Xiao took two steps back, raised his hands, palms of both hands faced each other, and clapped twice.

Suddenly a group of guards poured in from the door.

He's a guard from the East Palace!

Zhao Jin walked in unhurriedly and looked at Xiao Jiashu, "What Master Shangshu said, I was outside and heard it clearly."
