Xie Zhaoxue personally took people to visit the nearby neighbors and asked them one by one, but no one heard anything unusual last night.

Even if it is a human being, it is impossible to kill so many pigs silently, not to mention that these actions do not seem to be done by humans.

He stood under the sunlight, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and although his handsome face was expressionless, it was still heavy.

Zhong Wenjin watched from the sidelines, and seemed to be at a loss for what to do about it, so he suggested, "Why don't you go back first? Then let the government officials conduct a second inspection."

His words interrupted Xie Zhaoxue's thoughts, Xu felt that what he said made sense, Xie Zhaoxue nodded slightly.

"Thank you, my lord." Ding Ziyun didn't know that the two were discussing about leaving, so she came over with two cups of tea, and stopped in front of Xie Zhaoxue, "It's been a hard time investigating the case, let's use some tea."

Xie Zhaoxue subconsciously wanted to refuse, but suddenly felt a bump on her shoulder, it was Zhong Wenjin who came forward with two steps, pushed him away slightly, reached out for two cups of tea, and said haha, "It's just in time, sir, I just happened to be thirsty. "

As he said that, he raised his head and poured it into his mouth. He never thought that the tea was still a little hot, which made Zhong Wenjin, who always likes to drink herbal tea, a big loss.

He spit out all the mouthful he drank, "My mother! I'm scalded to death!"

Ding Ziyun was robbed of two cups of tea. She was a little dazed at first, but when she saw Zhong Wenjin being scalded, she hurriedly said in fright, "My lord, forgive me, it's because the girls are stupid and didn't tell your lord that this is hot tea."

She hurriedly wanted to go forward to make up for it, but she saw Xie Zhaoxue who was on the side take the first step, took out a brocade handkerchief and wiped the water sprayed on Zhong Wenjin's collar, and at the same time took another cup of tea from his hand and handed it to him. Ding Ziyun.

"No one is robbing you, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Xie Zhaoxue blamed.

Zhong Wenjin was so hot that his eyes burst into tears, and he said in pain, "So it's time to drink hot tea?"

"Didn't you feel the temperature when you served the tea?" Xie Zhaoxue wiped off the tea that covered his entire chin and neck, but his collar was already soaked, so he couldn't wipe it dry, so he took back the brocade handkerchief.

"I didn't expect it to be so hot!" Zhong Wenjin felt the pain in his entire mouth go away, and he lost all consciousness.

"Minister, go and pour some herbal tea for your lord right now!" Ding Ziyun just remembered and couldn't save her.

"Forget it, don't go either." Zhong Wenjin waved his hands, it was useless to go now, his tongue was already numb.

Xie Zhaoxue took a closer look at Ding Ziyun at this time, only to realize that she was the girl who was forced to jump off the Heyue Tower by Zhong Wenjin before, remembering that just now Zhong Wenjin rushed over to grab the two cups of tea, he gave Zhong Wenjin a cool look, and said quietly , "The cycle of cause and effect, the retribution is not good."

When Zhong Wenjin heard this, he pretended not to understand, and gave Ding Ziyun a look, "You are clumsy, hurry up! Don't be an eyesore here!"

Ding Ziyun didn't know that he was Zhong Wenjin, but he was also afraid of his identity, so he hurriedly collected the cup and went into the room.

"Let's go." Xie Zhaoxue said.

"Go back to the yamen?" Zhong Wenjin asked hurriedly.

He glanced at Zhong Wenjin's collar and said, "Go back to Xie's Mansion."

Zhong Wenjin has lived in the Xie Mansion for a while, and he has often lived and played in the Xie Mansion since he was a child, just like living in his own home, without any sense of being a guest, he said happily, "OK, OK ,go home."

After leaving behind the yamen servants who continued to investigate the case, Xie Zhaoxue and Zhong Wenjin left first.

It is said that after Liang Yanbei left the palace, he walked on the side of the road on foot.

He walked slowly, wearing a black gold cloak casually, a bit slack, which attracted the attention of passers-by.

Liang Yanbei's reputation in the capital is quite famous, even though he came from Jinling at the beginning of the year, when walking on the street like now, seven out of ten people know his identity.

He felt hungry as he walked, and planned to fill his stomach before going to the academy.

I found a noodle shop, ordered some food and finished eating. Just as I paid the copper coins, I heard loud noises coming from the street.

Liang Yanbei looked sideways, and saw a group of people gathered around the spacious street at some point. Among them, a woman was struggling and crying, and her wrist was grabbed by a strong man.

The man said viciously, "Why are you crying! Your father lost the bet and gave you to me as a daughter-in-law. If you are sensible, just follow me obediently, so as not to suffer!"

"Let go of me! Let me go!" The girl kicked her feet on the ground and cried loudly, "He lost the bet and you should ask him for it. What has it got to do with me?!"

"Father's debt is paid by son, it's only right and proper!" The man crushed the girl with all his strength, and seeing more and more people gathered, he planned to drag her away by force.

The girl suddenly stepped forward and bit the man's wrist with one bite. The bite seemed to be so severe that the man screamed and slapped the woman on the face with his backhand, knocking her over to the ground.

"Stinky bitch! You still dare to bite me, I'll take advantage of the crowd and teach you a lesson today!" The man spat, rolled up his sleeves, and planned to strike at the girl.

People around pointed at him, filled with righteous indignation, but seeing the man's strong physique, no one dared to step forward to stop him.

The man picked up the girl's long hair, raised his fist high and was about to drop it, when someone shouted, "Stop!"

Liang Yanbei silently withdrew his foot in mid-air.

The sudden cry shocked many people, even the man fixed his fist and looked towards the source of the sound.

I saw a young man in a blue-white long coat with a fine velvet robe, his face was sickly white, and behind him were several strong servants.

With a gentle expression on the young man's face, he said to the man, "How can you commit murder in the street in broad daylight?"

Seeing that the identity of the other party seemed unusual, the man didn't dare to make a mistake, he pulled the girl's hand and let go, and said, "You don't know something about this young man, it was the girl's father who lost the money in a bet and gave her to me as a mortgage." , so now this girl is my wife, if she is disobedient, I will naturally educate her."

The young master frowned slightly, "Since it's gambling, why use people as collateral?"

"There are too many things going on. If her father can't get the money, he will pay with his life. Now that he doesn't want to use his own life, he can only use his daughter's life." The man took it for granted.

Hearing this, the girl cursed her father as a beast, and cried to the young master, "Young master, please save my family! My family is willing to be a cow or a horse to repay you!"

Liang Yanbei looked at the young son, secretly thinking that the road to the enemy is really narrow.

This son is none other than Zhong Wenting, the young master of the Zhong family.

He raised his hand at the boy next to him, "I will pay you back how much silver this girl's father owes you."

When the man heard that the young master in front of him wanted to pay back the money, he immediately put on a flattering smile, "Young master is really a kind person. If you add the interest, you will owe a total of ten taels of silver."

Zhong Wenting smiled coldly, "Ten taels of silver, one life."

The servant behind him gave the money neatly, the man took the money, thanked Zhong Wenting again happily, praised Zhong Wenting lavishly, and left satisfied.

The girl was still kneeling on the ground, seeing Zhong Wenting turned to leave, she hurriedly got up to catch up, and begged, "Master, you saved the life of the slave family, and the slave family would like to follow the young master for the rest of their lives, even if it is to be a poor servant girl. "

"There is no shortage of people around me, you go, go back and remind your father, don't be gambling." Zhong Wenting said softly, no emotion could be heard in his voice.

"Young master, if you refuse to take in the slave family, even if the slave family returns home, it will be mortgaged again. Instead of this, it is better to end this life as soon as possible." The girl smashed the jar.

There are blatant threats inside and out of these words. After listening to others, they secretly think that you, a girl, are too greedy. She kindly rescued you, but you actually threatened her in turn.

However, Zhong Wenting did not get angry because of this, instead he stopped and looked at her sideways, "Are you really going back with me?"

"I hope the young master will be a good person to the end." The girl said with tears.

"Then follow me." Zhong Wenting nodded slightly, then turned and left, the girl wept with joy, wiped away two tears and hurriedly followed.

Everyone sighed and dispersed.

"This young master of the Zhong family is indeed a gentle and good man." The owner of the noodle shop sighed.

When Liang Yanbei heard "Wen Ruan", Wen Chan's appearance first appeared in his mind, and then asked, "Master Zhong has always been like this?"

"That's right." The boss said while packing up the bowls and chopsticks he had just eaten, "In the Zhong family, only the eldest son and the fourth son are the most famous, but the eldest son is gentle and refined, and he looks calm wherever he goes. Feng Qing's appearance is actually very good-hearted, I don't know how many people like today have been saved."

"But those four young masters are little overlords who are ready to pierce the sky. They have a bad temper, they don't speak out, they argue, and they beat people at every turn. Why is there such a big gap between the two Xie family members?"

The boss did not know how many people in the capital expressed their aspirations.

Liang Yanbei thought for a while and said, "Maybe the Fourth Young Master also has a gentle side?"

He himself thought it was funny after he finished speaking.

After Liang Yanbei left the noodle shop, he went to the academy to study in a serious manner, and returned home at noon. After talking to Liang Jun briefly, he went to the yamen to find Xie Zhaoxue, but it was all in vain.

But I also heard the yamen servant talk about the situation of the report this morning, and he said after listening, "When you, Mr. Xie, come back, you can find out all the files related to this case in the case reported a few days ago, and let Mr. Xie look at it." .”

The yamen servant remembered Liang Yanbei's words.

He ran around all day, and in a blink of an eye, it was dusk and the sky was dark.

Liang Yanbei glanced at the setting sun that was about to set in the distant sky, suddenly smiled, turned his footsteps, and ran to the palace again.

"The sun is setting, it's time to go to bed."

However, what Liang Yanbei never imagined was that when he bypassed the heavy guards of the palace and came to Xiyang Palace quietly, the owner of the palace was sitting obediently on the couch, as if waiting for him.

Liang Yanbei looked at Wen Chan, "Is Your Highness waiting for me today?"

Wen Chan didn't answer, but raised his head slightly, pointed to the ground, and then smiled innocently and harmlessly.

Liang Yanbei, who was still immersed in this smile, looked down, and his heart suddenly became cold.

Why is there a quilt on the floor
