Chapter 261 Visit

In the old lady's opinion, it is extremely disgraceful for Xuefu to get to the court. The prisoner is from Xue's house, and the adult of the court is also his own person. It's still uncle and nephew. What's the matter? If there is anything big, you should solve it yourself at home.

But now the old lady can't take care of her face. When Third Master Xue returned to Xue's house, he invited the old lady to the main room.

When the old lady saw Third Master Xue, she sulked and asked, "Tell me what big crime Brother Ten has committed. You actually asked the official of the government office to attach a person to take him away."

"Mother!" Third Master Xue saluted the old lady and said, "The tenth brother has something to do with the death of the sixth sister!"

Third Master Xue frowned. Although the old lady used to treat him badly, she was still his mother-in-law. This Xue family was still supported by the old lady.

"You think I'm blind or deaf. I don't know what kind of person the tenth brother is!" The old lady said harshly, "How can the tenth brother kill people? He is the future heir of Xue's family. Is it necessary to attack the sixth sister? Don't think I don't know anything when I'm old."

Being scolded by the old lady, Third Master Xue was also very embarrassed. The tenth brother has always been a good child and made friends with the sixth sister. At least before he left Chang'an, he was both studious and smart. When he came back, he treated him respectfully. No matter how he looked at it, it didn't look like a murderer.

"The mother is angry. If the evidence is not conclusive, the son dares not take the tenth brother. At least the tenth brother is also my nephew!" The third master said respectfully.

"You still think he is your nephew! What evidence? Show me. I don't believe that the tenth brother will do something stupid. You are an official, so tell me what motives the tenth brother has to kill the sixth sister!" The old lady looked at Third Master Xue coldly.

Third Master Xue felt that there was no cold sweat and replied, "Mother, the tenth brother has pleaded guilty!"

The old lady's eyes suddenly stared straight, and her eyes turned straight out. Seeing that the situation was not good, Mother Ge quickly shouted, "Lord, what are you doing standing here? Why don't you go and ask the doctor, old lady..."

The old lady grabbed Mother Ge's hand, and her chest was violently undulating and gasping. Mother Ge pinched the old lady's people emotionally. Seeing this, Third Master Xue quickly went outside to invite the doctor back, but saw that the old lady was already lying on the soft couch. Mother Ge took a thin blanket and covered the old lady's body.

The doctor entered the room and quickly showed the old lady. He got up and said, "The old lady is just angry. It's nothing serious. I just need to take care of it. However, the old lady is old. Third master, I'll tell you the truth. It's okay that the old lady was angry this time, but she still has to take care of this body. You sons should serve the old lady well. Don't let the old lady angry and don't let the old lady work hard.

Third Master Xue thanked him and asked his servants to send the doctor out. Seeing that the old lady had woken up, he carefully picked a few words and said, "Mother, you have a rest first. The matter of the tenth brother must be decided by the emperor in the end. The son will not let the tenth brother suffer in prison. Although the truth has been found out, my son always feels that there are still some strange things, and his son will investigate it thoroughly again. Maybe the tenth brother was also framed.

The old lady turned around and didn't look at Third Master Xue.

Third Master Xue stayed here for a long time and didn't see the old lady say a word. He knew that there was nothing to do here, so he said, "My mother is taking a good rest. My son will go to the government gate to have a look."

Ge's mother winced and asked Third Master Xue to leave first. Third Master Xue asked Ge's mother to take good care of the old lady, and then left the main house.

Although all the evidence proves that the tenth brother poisoned the sixth sister, and the tenth brother also admitted it, Third Master Xue still felt a little strange. First, the tenth brother really has no motivation, and he is not like other dboys. The things left by the sixth sister have not been found yet.

He still likes the tenth brother. After all, he is his younger generation. Third Master Xue has been sitting in the court for a long time and feels that something is wrong, so he goes to prison.

The tenth brother is from Xue's family, and now the governor is still his uncle, so the people in the prison are not embarrassed by the tenth brother. Not only that, but he also cleans the cell. Although it can't be simpler, and the food and clothing is just a simple meal, at least there is no suffering.

Third Master Xue was dressed in official uniform. When he saw the tenth brother sitting on the ground with his knees crossed, he looked quiet and did not feel a disaster at all. According to the law of Dazhou, the murderer pays for his life. Tenth brother is the supervisor of the national prison, and it is impossible that he does not understand the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Brother Ten heard the sound of unlocking, opened his eyes, and saw Third Master Xue come in and shouted in surprise, "Uncle, why are you here!"

Xue Sanye's face was rigid and coughed, "It's a business now. You should call Lord Xue."

"I forgot, Lord Xue, why did you come to prison? Hasn't my case been closed?" The tenth brother's face is clean, his eyes are white, and his smile makes people feel like bathing in the sun.

Third Master Xue said coldly, "Do you know that if this case is closed, you are a death penalty!"

"I know!" The tenth brother responded with a smile, as if death was just a game.

"Although this case is closed, there are still many questions that have not been solved, so this case is not yet closed! Xue Jinqi, you always tell me whether you killed the sixth sister of the Xue family or not!" Third Master Xue is full of official prestige when he is serious.

"Lord Xue, how many times have you asked me? I always answered that. I killed the sixth sister!"

"What about the motivation?"

The tenth brother smiled and said, "She has a bad temper and often curses. One day, I happened to be in a bad mood and put arsenic in her tea."

"What do you do with arsenic at any time!"

"Where do I usually take it with me? It's just that I happened to buy a arsenic mouse that day. When I went home, I met the sixth sister. As you know, I have always been friends with the sixth sister, so I went to her place to sit down. That day, something unpleasant happened to me and my classmates in the National Prison. You can find out that the sixth sister's words were fierce, and I was so angry that I put arsenic in her tea while she and her maid didn't pay attention.

It can be said that the tenth brother answered without any mistakes.

However, Master Xue's face is not very good. The more the evidence is, the more he can't help Brother Ten.

"Do you know what the sixth sister said she wanted to give to the ninth sister?"

"Things? What! I don't know about this!" The tenth brother asked in surprise.

Xue Sanye nodded. Although his face was still gloomy, he still eased a lot. No matter out of selfishness or anything, he still didn't want to give up until the end. He really didn't believe that the sixth sister was killed by the tenth brother. That's why I want to continue to investigate so persistently.

What is left by the sixth sister? Where is it now? Maybe finding that thing can find out the real truth of the matter.

Third Master Xue looked at the tenth brother for a long time, and the tenth brother did not say anything. Before long, Third Master Xue left the prison with someone.

Out of the prison, Third Master Xue said in a low voice, "Master Wu, take someone to find out what the sixth sister of the Xue family wants to leave for Sister Jiu. Go to her boudoir first. If you can't find it, ask her personal maid."

"Your Excellency, this matter has been settled!" Wu's book reminded.

Master Xue stared at Master Wu and said, "What if the case is closed? Even if the case is closed, who stipulates that this case cannot be investigated?"

"I'm going to order to go down!" Master Wu said respectfully.

I used to hear that the third master of the Xue family was persistent. Even if the case was solved, he still had to investigate it. In the end, he really found out a lot of wrongdoing and fake cases, and now it's true. However, there are few such officials. No wonder Third Master Xue can sit in the position of governor in his early 40s.

Xue Fu, the second wife really had no choice but to send the silver, but the jailer didn't accept it. She didn't even have a chance to visit her tenth brother. In the past few days, she described it as withered, and her eyes were very red and swollen, but she went to the old lady's room.

She knelt on the ground and cried, "Mother, you must save the tenth brother. The tenth brother has always been obedient and has never done anything bad. Old lady, the tenth brother has always been filial to you. You want to save the tenth brother!"

Ge's mother quickly picked up the second wife and comforted her in a low voice, "My second wife, the old lady fainted in anger this morning. Don't worry, the third master is doing this. Even if the sixth sister was really killed by the tenth brother, won't the old lady find a way to save the tenth brother? Now you'd better go back to the house and wait for the news!"

When the second wife saw that the old lady looked serious and didn't say a word, she was surprised. Originally, she wanted to speak, but was stopped by Ge's mother. She just made a wink to let the second wife go back to the house first.

The second wife was also afraid of provoking the old lady, so she said goodbye to the old lady first.

In the evening, Third Master Xue came back and talked to the old lady about the tenth brother in prison.

"Mother, the tenth brother insisted that he had poisoned him. We can't open the coffin of the sixth sister, which is difficult to do! However, the sixth sister said that what she wanted to give to the ninth sister hasn't been found yet. If she finds it, maybe the tenth brother still has something to save. The emperor has been busy recently and has no time to pay attention to this matter. We also have some time. However, after autumn, this matter can no longer be postponed, and the son must really settle the case.

The old lady waved her hand and said tiredly, "You go down first. I've been tired for such a day. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"My son is leaving!" Third Master Xue bowed and walked out of the house.

The old lady asked Ge's mother to help her up and asked her mother to bring her usual jewelry box on the dresser.

After Mother Ge quickly handed the box to the old lady's hand, the old lady opened the box and pulled out a dark compartment. Although Mother Ge had been serving the old lady, she did not find such a secret.
