Ji Xuan and others were drinking tea in the lobby. The Xue and Zhang families who were temporarily detained in this lobby were only separated by a wall.
"Master Ji, are these two cases really the same case? I admire you." Tong Ruoqi patted Ji Xuan on the shoulder, expressing admiration in her words.
"Don't dare, it's just a coincidence. I didn't expect that the Zhang family would lie at first." Ji Xuan said helplessly.
Qin Sihan looked at the two of you who were talking to each other and said, "Master Tong, go back and take the files back. I won't go back."
Tong Ruoqi was not surprised by this. When Tan Sihan returned to Beijing, he was afraid that only an imperial edict or an emergency summons would be of any use.
Zhang Xuan was stunned after hearing this: "Huh? Mr. Qin isn't leaving yet? What are you doing here?"
"Have a free meal." Tan Sihan said unceremoniously.
Ji Xuan didn't believe it. He remembered the portrait in Qin Sihan's room that looked very similar to Fang Wu's. He took a deep look and saw some strange colors flashing in his eyes, but nothing showed up.
There are still some files that have not been sorted out, and if the two cases are to be put together, there are still some missing links of evidence.
Moreover, the Zhang and Xue families have not yet brought the case to justice, and they have to wait for the girl to come back and ask some targeted questions before the case can be considered completely over.
"I remember that Mr. Tan didn't come here for the horse corpse case in the first place. Could it be that there are some old friends of Mr. Tan in this county? Or is it some kind of memory?"
Ji Xuan still plans to explore the truth.
"Maybe, maybe not." Tan Sihan said something that made people feel troubled.
"..." Ji Xuan was so speechless that she really couldn't ask anything.
"...Who are you showing this face to? If it weren't for your girl to go out regardless of the wedding date, how could such a thing happen?"
When several people were speaking formally, these words suddenly came from across the wall. The voice was very arrogant, and it sounded like it was said by the Xue family.
Several people looked at each other and moved their stools forward.
"Isn't it your boy who doesn't even know the size of our girl? Wedding clothes are always too eye-catching." Can't the Zhang family do it?
"Mom, aunt. I really like her. Now that the Tian family has intervened, this case will have a chance to see the light of day." Xue Chen interrupted the quarrel between the two.
He added: "What if I have the chance to marry her and go into exile? What if I do something? I have to take responsibility. The Xu Mansion has been sealed, and we are sitting in the yamen, can we still go out without any trouble?"
"
Xue Chen shook his head and said bravely.
"It must be her girl who wears seductive clothes. Otherwise, why not rob other people's property instead of other people's? My mother told me that her girl is not good."
The Xue family disagreed.
"Don't you think your boy likes my girl's good looks? Otherwise, why doesn't he go find someone else?" The Zhang family complained: "What's more, my family also paid for this. There are several cows. The Su family still has us come to contact them.
Of."
"Guys, can you tell me more about this matter?" Tan Sihan came over and asked, dressed in fine clothes.
As Tan Si appeared, several other people also walked around the wall with their pouting eyes.
People from Zhang and Xue's family watched as several people remained silent. They all lowered their heads, as if nothing happened.
"My surname is Tan, and I am what you call a Tian family member. One thing about me is that I don't like to hear lies. If you continue to tell lies, I'm sorry. I'll go back to the court."
Qin Sihan threatened bluntly,
He was too lazy to talk nonsense. This case had been dragging on for more than half a month.
Although he said that he would not leave the school after the case was over, it did not mean that he wanted to be entangled in these cases all his days in Xuefu County.
But the people sitting opposite still didn't speak.
However, Qin Sihan seemed to have no patience. He stood up and ordered: "Bai Xi, go and lead the horse. Let's go, Mr. Tong. It's better to leave this mess to the ministers. Otherwise, what will our Qin family do to them?"
Ji Xuan stood up and tried to stop him, but before he could speak, Tan Sihan interrupted him and said, "There's no need to send it off, Mr. Ji, I'm leaving now."
After saying that, he already strode out. It wasn't until the group of them crossed the threshold that they heard Xue Chen say: "Sir, please stay here. If I can explain my words completely, will my wife be able to come back?"
"
"Although I can't be sure whether she is finished, I can confirm that they are all still alive. I have contacted the residences of major officials in the capital, and they have sent back all the girls they accepted this time."
Qin Sihan turned around and assured them: "All the girls from good families will be sent back. As for those who are slaves, they will work as prostitutes in the Yuefu Department of the palace. All those who interfered with the case have been brought to justice."
After he finished speaking, Qin Sihan asked: "Is there anything else Mr. Xue is dissatisfied with?"
His face and every word seemed like he was asking for credit from Xue Chen.
“Mr.
You must confess your sins.”
Ji Xuan followed,
He knew it might be bad to say this at this time, but these things must be made clear and cannot be avoided.
Fang Wu smiled and asked: "Master Xue, I think you like the Zhang family girl, and you don't just like his innocence, right?"
"Of course not. I'm just not sure whether you will protect each other. I want you to handle this matter impartially." Xue Chen shook his head and said calmly,
After saying these words, his brows relaxed, as if the melancholy he had been feeling for many days was finally lifted.
"In that case, please invite Mr. Xue to come here one by one. We will each judge whether it is true or false. We will not be biased in how to deal with it in the end." Tong Ruoqi nodded.
"I, Tong, are a martial artist. I am only loyal to the Qin family and serve the Holy One. I am absolutely selfless." Tong Ruoqi took two steps forward and said with her chest.
"On the day she disappeared, I didn't enter the Xu Mansion on the pretext of delivering food. I saw her once in the Xu Mansion." Xue Chen sighed.
"I hate that I don't have the courage to make a big fuss in Xu Mansion and bring her out, maybe..."
Ji Xuan interrupted: "There is no possibility. Mr. Xue, there are guards in Xu's house. If you act rashly, you may risk an extra life."
It is already good for Xue Chen to be able to do this.
Xu Mansion must have made certain preparations in the capital or at each government office to prevent them from jumping to the next level and suing the officials.
And such things must be done with caution. If the officials are at odds with each other, it will be very difficult to see this case come to light...
"Master Ji, what kind of crime is it to kill a horse with people?" At this time, Xue's father, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said.
