Shocking! The killer traveled through time and space and became a female Shura, killing like crazy
Chapter 78 Xue Zhong is a shrewd and calculating person
The people from the patrol camp ran to Xue's mansion and the knocking sound echoed throughout the mansion. The doorman heard the knocking sound and hurried over to open the door.
The people from the patrol camp pushed open the gate and rushed into the mansion.
The doorman yelled, "What are you doing? This is the residence of the Minister of Revenue. How dare you barge in?"
"Where is your eldest son Xue Fan?"
"The eldest son is out."
"Call your master out. Xue Fan killed Prime Minister Huo's daughter, Huo Xi, in the street. We are here to arrest him."
The frightened doorman hurried to report to Xue Zhong. Since the accident of his youngest son, Xue Zhong's health has been much worse than before. His hair is all white and he looks much older. He sits in the study in a daze.
The doorman hurried to the main courtyard and said in panic: "Master..."
The housekeeper stood guard at the door and shouted angrily, "How can you be so impetuous? You scared the master and you'll be punished!"
"Butler, quickly inform the master that the patrol camp is here to arrest the eldest young master. They say he killed the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the street."
Xue Zhong, who was sitting in the study, was startled when he heard the doorman's words. He hurried out and angrily shouted, "Who are you listening to? I will beat you to death with a stick."
"master……"
At this time, Huo Kai rushed in with his men and shouted angrily: "Master Xue, your Xue Fan killed my sister Huo Xi in the street. This is a fact. Hand Xue Fan over immediately, or I will sue you in front of the emperor for harboring a murderer, and you will be implicated as well."
"That's nonsense. They had no grudge against each other. How could my son kill your sister?"
"With all the evidence, you can't argue. Come, search for Xue Fan."
At Huo Kai's command, the soldiers behind him began to search the Xue Mansion.
Xue Zhong believed that his son would not kill anyone, but Huo Kai's words were so convincing that he felt uneasy. He silently prayed that this was not true.
Soon, the patrol camp came to report that Xue Fan was not found in the mansion. Huo Kai looked at the white-haired Xue Zhong and said coldly: "Master Xue, your son killed someone in the street. You dare to harbor a murderer? We will see you in the court."
"Walk."
Huo Kai led his men out of the Xue Mansion and ordered, "Stand guard at the door of the Xue Mansion and monitor Xue Zhong's every move. I don't believe Xue Zhong will watch his only son being arrested."
"Yes."
"The others follow me."
Xue Zhong watched Huo Kai leave and anxiously ordered, "Butler, send someone out to investigate the situation, and then send someone to notify Qing Jue. Tell him to find the eldest son before the patrol camp and escort him to the training ground. Don't let him appear in the capital."
"Yes."
Xue Zhong returned to the study and slumped into a chair. He suddenly felt powerless, and tears rolled down his cheeks.
"What's going on with my Xue family? First the warehouse was robbed, then Haoyu got into trouble, and now Fan'er kills someone in the street. Why do these incidents keep happening? Is someone targeting me, or is God trying to destroy my Xue family's lineage?"
Mrs. Xue rushed over when she learned about the situation. "Master, why would Fan'er kill someone in the street?"
"I don't know the details."
"What should we do now?"
"We can only wait."
"You just wait. Once Fan'er is found by the patrol camp and the Jingzhao government, we will be in a passive position."
"You go back and rest, I have already made arrangements."
"We must protect Fan'er, otherwise the Xue family will be extinct."
"I know."
On their way back, Xue Ying and Jiang Zongwei heard people on the street talking about the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue killing someone in the street, which made them unbelievable.
He Feng and two servants quietly followed Jiang Zongwei back home. On the way, they heard others talking about this matter and quickly went to the study.
"I pay my respects to the Master..."
Xue Zhong was furious and gnashed his teeth as he said, "He Feng, you are the eldest master's attendant. Where were you when the eldest master was in trouble? Why didn't you come and report it immediately? Where is the eldest master now?"
"Master, when we went out together, the eldest master accidentally bumped into Huo Xi. She was rude and unreasonable and grabbed the eldest master and wouldn't let him go. The eldest master ordered his subordinates to chase after Jiang Guye. So my subordinates were not with the eldest master when he got into trouble."
"Why go after Jiang Zongwei?"
He Feng recounted what had happened one by one, then knelt down and said, "Master, please forgive me. I came to report to you without confirming the situation. I deserve to die."
Xue Zhong was furious when he heard this. He kicked He Feng hard in the chest, causing him to frown in pain. He then knocked him down. However, He Feng immediately knelt down with a blank expression. Xue Zhong kicked him several times but still couldn't get rid of his anger. In the end, he was exhausted and panting.
After calming down, he said sternly, "You've been a guard for so long, yet you misjudged the situation. You deserve to die. But you'll keep your life to protect Fan'er. Secretly take people to find Fan'er and send him to the death squad training ground. Don't let him appear in the capital."
"I obey my orders."
After He Feng left, Xue Zhong had no place to vent his resentment, so he quickly ordered someone to call Xue Ying and his wife over.
Xue Ying learned that Xue Fan had killed someone in the street. She was happy that he would definitely die for killing Prime Minister Huo's daughter. But she was also worried that if her father found out, she would be punished. Even if she was punished, she felt it was worth it.
At this time, the servant came to report, "Miss San, the master wants you and your uncle to come over together."
"Why did my father ask us to come over?"
"This slave doesn't know."
"understood."
"Qiushuang, is Jiang Zongwei back?"
"Uncle, I just came back."
"Go and call him over."
"Yes."
Xue Ying left the room, and Jiang Zongwei walked with her to the main courtyard. Xue Ying warned him, "Be careful what you say in front of my father."
"I know."
They came to the study, where Xue Zhong was sitting in deep thought, his face terribly gloomy. When he saw them coming, he looked at Jiang Zongwei, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Jiang Zongwei's scalp tingled as he watched this, and he asked cautiously, "Dad, why did you call us here?"
"I just heard that Ying'er brought some people to your house and made a scene. This kid is really too much. How could she go to your house and cause trouble? Isn't this a disgrace to my Xue family?"
"Someone come..."
Two servants came in and asked, "Master, what do you want?"
"Lock the Third Miss in the Xue Family Ancestral Hall for five days without food, and pray for the eldest young master's safety."
Xue Ying was so frightened that she quickly knelt down and said, "Dad, I was wrong. Please let me go! I will never cause trouble at the Jiang family again."
Jiang Zongwei didn't know why Xue Zhong was like this, but he quickly said, "Dad, the lady is still young. She knows she was wrong this time and she won't do it again next time."
"If she makes a mistake, she must be punished. Otherwise, she won't restrain herself next time and will bring shame to our Xue family."
"Take it down."
Two servants carried Xue Ying out. "Dad... Dad..." No matter how she cried and called, Xue Zhong remained unmoved.
Xue Zhong looked at Jiang Zongwei and said, "Son-in-law Jiang, are your parents okay? When you have time, please ask them to come to the mansion so I can apologize in person."
"Dad, you absolutely can't do that. How can you apologize to my parents?"
"We are in-laws. If my daughter does something wrong, it's because I, as her father, didn't educate her well. I should be the first to apologize."
Jiang Zongwei didn't know why Xue Zhong suddenly changed so much, which made him very panicked.
"You should leave! I'm tired too."
"Yes."
As soon as Jiang Zongwei left, Xue Zhong showed a horrified expression and said coldly: "Wangchuan..."
A man in black appeared beside Xue Zhong, "Master..."
"Send someone to thoroughly investigate whether anyone is targeting my Xue family. Have you sent anyone to look for the eldest son?"
"I have sent a hundred assassins out to search for the eldest son, and we will have news soon."
"Don't send any message back to prevent it from being intercepted."
"Yes."
"Order someone to prepare a human skin mask that looks like the eldest young master, and select a person with the same body shape as the eldest young master from among the dead soldiers, and prepare to die for the eldest young master."
"Yes."
