After his inner voice was read, the little cannon fodder became the darling of the world
Chapter 308 The murderer behind the scenes
Taoist Qingchen carried the person to a chair and sat him down.
"Jiu Jun, you don't have to be sad about this! It is precisely because there are all kinds of injustices in the world that we need to save all living beings.
If we solve each case we see, there will be one less evil thing in the world."
Nangong Jiu was comforted: "Qingchen is right, we strive to be worthy of our conscience and the people of the world.
These days, while we are resting, we will go out more and try to do more for the people.
By the way, Qingchen, you guys stay here for a few more days and return to Lingyin Temple after my birthday. By then, we should also return to the capital."
"Yes, Qingchen thinks so too."
In the afternoon, Nangong Jiu asked Liu Hao for the address of Zhu Xuejing's uncle's house, and went out with Taoist Qingchen and others.
After wandering around and playing along the way, they arrived at the gate of Uncle Zhu Xuejing's house as if by accident.
"Your Majesty, shall we go in?"
Nangong Jiu took a deep breath and said, "Go in stealthily. I hope it won't be as I expected. Otherwise, I will make them pay a heavy price."
Zhu's study.
Several adults from Uncle Zhu Xuejing's family were gathered in the study hall to discuss matters.
Nangong Jiu and his group slipped into the study while the servants were delivering tea.
After sending the servant away and closing the door, Madam Zhu asked worriedly, "Master, something has happened to the Zhou family now. Will it affect us?"
"bang bang bang"
Zhu Xuejing's uncle Zhu Shiqian slammed the desk angrily.
"Are you scared now? It's all your fault! I didn't agree to let Xue Jing marry into the Zhou family in the first place. It was you who insisted on marrying Xue Jing in a hurry."
"Master, why are you blaming me? Didn't you object to it at the beginning?
I was worried that she would come to her senses and ask us to return the business and property, so I was in a hurry to get her married. It just so happened that the Zhou family found a matchmaker, so I went with the flow.
Besides, we didn’t know the Zhou family was so bold. Not only did they want the girl’s dowry, but they also dared to force her to death.”
Zhu Shiqian gritted his teeth and said, "As the elders of Zhu Xuejing's family, she got into trouble only two months after her marriage. If we look into it carefully, we are guilty of negligence and dereliction of duty."
"Dad, Mom, there are all kinds of things being said about this matter.
Some said that our family coveted the property of my uncle's family and drove Zhu Xuejing out of the house; some said that we accepted some benefits from the Zhou family and teamed up with them to deceive Zhu Xuejing..."
"What's even more infuriating is that they say we were the ones who caused the trouble at my uncle's house in order to seize his family property..."
Zhu Shiqian was furious when he heard his two sons talking to each other.
"Just shut up! It's fine if the people outside are talking nonsense, but you guys are also meddling in it.
The reason I called you here today is mainly to remind you that Zhu Xuejing's death has nothing to do with us, so don't panic.
If the officials ask about it, we will say that we did not agree to this marriage at all and tried to stop it. It was she who insisted on getting married and threatened to commit suicide, so we had no choice but to agree. "
"That's obviously not the case..."
Zhu Shiqian glared at his son.
"Just listen to me. She's dead anyway, so there's no evidence. This way it can save a lot of trouble. Do you understand?"
"Oh."
"Got it!" Mrs. Zhu and her two sons nodded in agreement.
Zhu Shiqian glanced at his wife, his eyes flickering slightly.
Nangong Jiu, who was in the dark, carefully observed the expressions of several people. Seeing that they had almost finished talking, he separated a wisp of his spiritual consciousness and probed their sea of consciousness respectively.
When he explored the consciousness of Zhu Shiqian and his wife, Nangong Jiu's face was tense, his eyes were full of fire, and his little hands were clenched with a "cracking" sound.
He leaped up, climbed onto the beam, took out a small bag and put it into his small pocket.
Taoist Qingchen saw that she was about to hit someone with her fist raised, so he bent down and pulled her into his arms. He then winked at Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing, and the group left the Zhu Mansion.
"Jiu Jun, besides being negligent and irresponsible and being the driving force behind Zhu Xuejing's marriage, is there anything else they did?"
Nangong Jiu hugged Taoist Qingchen's neck and suddenly felt exhausted physically and mentally: "Qingchen, I often hear people say "People die for money and birds die for food". It turns out that family ties and human relations are so vulnerable in the face of wealth and power."
"Jiu Jun, could it be..."
"Yes, the thing we least want to see has really happened. Let's go back to find Daddy."
The group flew directly.
Liu Hao's study.
After Nangong Jiu and his group returned home, they went directly to Liu Hao's study.
Liu Hao, who was handling official business, looked up.
"Jiu'er, have you been to Zhu's house?"
“Dad, Zhu Xuejing’s marriage was pushed by her uncle Zhu Shiqian’s family. They were afraid that she would come to her senses and take back the business and property, so they hurriedly kicked her out.
Zhu Xuejing's parents and brother were her uncle Zhu Shiqian and his wife, who hired assassins to kill her because they saw the money.
Zhu Shiqian placed the evidence of the transaction on the beam of the study. I have retrieved it for you.
They hired a killer gang called Blood Spirit Temple."
Nangong Jiu said as he took out the small bundle from his small pocket and handed it to Liu Hao.
Liu Hao was shocked: "You said Zhu Shiqian and his wife were the murderers behind the accident?"
"Yes, they are very cautious. I only know this by exploring their sea of consciousness."
Liu Hao gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, leave it to me. You don't look well, go back and rest."
"Well, Daddy, all the property of Zhu Xuejing's family will be taken back to help those poor people and children.
Don't let those two wolves and tigers get away with it. This can be considered as a good deed for Zhu Xuejing's family. If they knew about this in the afterlife, they would feel better."
"Okay, I understand. I will hand this matter over to my subordinates tomorrow.
You should go see your mother. She has been busy since the afternoon. I wonder what delicious food she is preparing."
Liu Hao felt distressed as he watched Nangong Jiu and his group walk away.
Jiuer's face looked bad, probably because she was very angry. I hoped that eating could make her feel better.
The main courtyard kitchen.
Starting from the afternoon, Nangong Yunxue went straight into the kitchen to make everyone's favorite food.
Nangong Jiu's four-joy meatballs and braised chicken legs, Xiao Wang Xiaoxing's roasted chicken, Taoist Qingchen and his friends' first-class tofu, cold-mixed mushrooms, and garlic-mashed cowpeas...
Nangong Jiu rushed into the kitchen in one breath: "Mother, thank you for your hard work!"
"You guys are back so soon? How is it? Tell mother quickly."
Nangong Jiu was a little reluctant to say more: "Mother, can I help you?"
Nangong Yunxue was busy with her work and didn't look at Nangong Jiu's expression.
"No need! You are still young now, so wait until you grow up before helping mother. When the time comes, we can do it together, one of us will do it, and the other will help. I am looking forward to it just thinking about it."
You, stand there now and tell your mother about your harvest this afternoon."
Nangong Jiu said in a muffled voice: "The result is something we don't want to see.
Mother, do you think money is more important than family affection? Why do some people kill each other for money and power, and are more ruthless than outsiders? "
Nangong Yunxue looked at Nangong Jiu.
"Jiu'er, look at your ten fingers, what's the difference?"
