Chapter 166 Did she really kill that person?
"Your Highness, since the evidence is solid and the criminal has been brought to justice, let's close the case as soon as possible!"
Qin Jiwei spoke to the prince.
Prime Minister Qin on the side had a gloomy face the whole time. His son died, but he could not seek justice or get to the bottom of the matter. He felt really aggrieved.
Prime Minister Qin looked at Xie Shiyu. He was determined to have a grudge against the Xie family.
The prince looked at the prime minister and asked, "What does the prime minister think?"
Prime Minister Qin said coldly: "Then let the prince decide!"
The prince nodded and said, "Since no one objects, then you, the magistrate of the capital, shall announce the result of this case!"
"Yes!"
The Jing Ya Ling did not dare to look at Prime Minister Qin and selectively avoided his gaze. He turned his head to his other half with trepidation in his heart and announced the result of the case.
"The case is very clear. Ding Shouren is the murderer of Qin Jigui. Xie Shiyu is not suspected of murder and is released without charge."
After saying this, Jing Yaling felt a fierce gaze falling on him. He could only pretend that he didn't know and didn't dare to look at Prime Minister Qin at all.
Qin Xiang's gaze finally fell on Xie Shiyu. Xie Shiyu was declared not guilty and immediately stood up. He was not afraid of Qin Xiang's fierce gaze and even smiled complacently.
Prime Minister Qin snorted coldly, then left with a flick of his sleeves, taking his son's body away.
As soon as Prime Minister Qin left, everyone in the court breathed a sigh of relief.
The prince did not pursue the matter regarding Prime Minister Qin's rude behavior and left with his men.
Xie Shiyu also stood up and left.
……
From the moment Prime Minister Qin stepped out of the Beijing government office, murderous intent was revealed in his eyes.
"Go, find someone to ambush, and kill the Xie family kid as soon as he leaves the government office!"
After hearing this, Qin Jiwei objected: "Father, isn't this too obvious?"
"Obviously? The son is dead, so why can't I ask the Xie family's son to be buried with him? At worst, we can go to court, and I will find someone to convict like the Xie family!"
The more Prime Minister Qin thought about it, the more he felt that the butcher had been bribed to convict him. How could it be such a coincidence that he would kill someone at this time?
Since the butcher said he had a blood feud with his son, why did he take action earlier or later, but at this time?
It was impossible for Xie Shiyu to pass by the inn by chance and see his son being murdered. It was obviously premeditated.
In short, Xie Shiyu is closely related to Jigui's death.
Qin Xiang turned his head to look at Qin Jiwei and ordered: "Get this done for me!"
Qin Jiwei heard his father's tone, so he naturally couldn't refute it, so he had to agree: "Yes! Father!"
But the Xie family has not shown up yet. I wonder if they really don't want to be involved? Or have they already made plans in secret?
Qin Jiwei had no good feelings towards his elder brother. On the contrary, it would be best for him if his brother died. If he died, he would be the only heir to the mansion.
Whether the assassination of Xie Shiyu succeeds or not, it is just a gesture to my father.
……
Xie Shiyu then left the yamen. No one came to greet him outside the door except his servant Awei.
My family members all know that something happened to me, but why don’t they come to pick me up?
"Young Master, Young Master, I was so scared. Fortunately, I ran back home immediately and reported the matter to the eldest Young Master. Young Master, are you okay?" A Wei pulled Xie Shiyu to check if he was injured.
Xie Shiyu shook his head and said, "They didn't touch me, so this was a close call."
"That's great, let's go quickly, the eldest master is still waiting for you!" Awei pulled Xie Shiyu and left.
When Xie Shiyu heard that his elder brother was coming, he was still somewhat happy. He followed Awei to the side and parked the carriage in an inconspicuous place.
When Xie Shiyu saw the carriage, his expression became much more relaxed. His elder brother still cared about him.
Xie Shiyu hurriedly got on the carriage. Inside the carriage, Xie Shilian sat upright with his eyes closed. When he heard his brother coming in, he opened his eyes and looked at him.
"Brother!" Xie Shiyu looked as if he had done something wrong. He lowered his head and called Xie Shilian.
Xie Shilian would not indulge him like before this time, and asked him face to face: "Shouldn't you confess something to me about this matter?"
"Brother... I... I didn't kill anyone!" Xie Shiyu could only say this palely.
Xie Shilian said sternly: "Since you didn't kill anyone, why don't you tell us everything? If I hadn't taken action today, you would have died without a doubt. Do you know that?"
"Brother...I...I have my own difficulties!"
"What's the reason?" Xie Shilian looked outside in a cold voice, then lifted the car curtain and asked, "Is it because of her?"
Xie Shiyu looked outside and saw his eldest brother's subordinate Cang Ling holding down a woman. The woman raised her head slightly, revealing the indifferent face that he was familiar with.
Xie Shiyu was slightly startled and looked at Xie Shilian. A thought popped into his mind: Big brother probably knows everything!
"You really have nothing to tell me?" Xie Shilian lowered the curtain, and Jiaoyue's face disappeared from Xie Shiyu's sight.
"Xie Shiyu, you are keeping a woman outside! Do you know that this woman you keep will bring you fatal disaster?"
Xie Shiyu looked at Xie Shilian and said anxiously, "Brother... I... She and I are not what you think. I just saw that she had nowhere to go, so I thought of finding a place for her to go!"
Xie Shilian mercilessly exposed his thoughts and said, "Ayu, don't I know who you are? If you weren't moved, why would you convict her?"
"I..." Xie Shiyu looked at his elder brother, feeling powerless to explain. He could only lower his head, feeling a little overwhelmed.
"Brother, can you please let her go? Although she made a mistake, it was Qin Jigui who humiliated her first. It is understandable that she seeks revenge!" Xie Shiyu still looked up and begged his elder brother in a soft voice.
Xie Shilian stopped his brother and could only say helplessly: "Ayu, you think this is too simple! Do you know who she is?"
Xie Shiyu was still explaining for Jiaoyue: "I know her identity is not good. She used to be a prostitute, but now she has redeemed herself and is innocent..."
Xie Shilian interrupted Xie Shiyu and revealed Jiaoyue's identity in front of him, saying, "Her name is not Jiaoyue! Her original name is Yang Liqiong, and she is the only daughter of the previous Minister of Rites, Yang Ruichang. Two years ago, Yang Ruichang committed a crime and was imprisoned, so his wife and daughter were made official prostitutes! You told me that she is just a simple prostitute! Do you know who is behind her?"
"Yang... Liqiong?"
Xie Shiyu was shocked.
It turns out that her life experience was so miserable.
Xie Shilian continued to explain the whole story, saying: "Why do you think she went to see Qin Jigui? The reason is that Qin Jigui had seen her a few years ago and proposed to marry her because of her beauty! But he was rejected by Yang Ruichang. Now that he met Yang Liqiong again, he naturally threatened her with this matter. That's why Yang Liqiong had to kill Qin Jigui!"
Xie Shiyu came back to his senses from the shock just now, so he asked, "Did she really kill Qin Jigui?"
