Uncle Nine

Chapter 99 I Didn't Kill Someone

Xia Yu will never forget such a scene in her life. There is a girl covered in blood lying next to her, her eyes staring at Xia Yu like copper bells.And in her hand, she held a dagger full of blood. The cold and glaring blood made her body tremble violently.

There was only a bang, and the dagger fell to the ground.

Other people's shrill screams sounded beside her ears, and she just sat there in a pool of blood in a daze.

"No, no, no, it's not me, it's not me!" She hurriedly stood up, lowered her eyebrows to look at the dying girl, her whole body was terribly cold.

It was dark, and she didn't know where she was going.

This is in front of a secluded residential house, the dead girl's clothes are disheveled, and the wound on her chest no longer gushes out blood.

She crouched down tremblingly, and stretched out her hand to probe the girl's breath.

Not breathing!

Xia Yu fell to the ground again. She had seen dead people and corpses, but she had never killed anyone—she didn't kill this person, how could she kill someone?There were footsteps running fast all around, and many people gathered here.

Xia Yu wanted to run, but she didn't know where to go.

The people surrounded her, gnashing their teeth with hatred, "That's her! She killed people! She killed people!"

"I didn't kill it, it wasn't me!" Xia Yu screamed.

The crowd parted ways, and the yamen servant ran over quickly, trying to catch Xia Yu without saying a word.

"It's not me!" Xia Yu struggled.

"Whether it's you or not, we'll talk about it later!" The head catcher snorted coldly, his cold eyes filled with conclusive evidence.

Xia Yu is not a person who can be bound with her hands. She used to go in and out of the government prison in Daizhou, but this time it is different.What crime is murder, Xia Yu is very clear.Killing for life means losing your head.Just go in like this, if you don't plead guilty, you will be tortured and served!
"I told you, I didn't kill it." Xia Yu shook her shoulders and broke free from the bondage of the yamen servant.She was panting, her face was pale, "When I woke up, she was already dead. It has nothing to do with me!"

"Dare to arrest! Catch her!" The catcher shouted coldly, and the yamen servants rushed forward.

Xia Yu ran away, and would die if caught.

Behind him, there was constant noise, Xia Yu didn't care and ran forward desperately.

Unexpectedly, the catcher made a volley and landed in front of her, blocking her way.

"I said, I was wronged, I didn't kill people." Xia Yu tiptoed, leaped into the air, stepped on the wall with one foot, and punched towards the head catcher, "Get out of the way!"

The head catcher obviously didn't expect Xia Yu's move, and immediately greeted him with a palm.Shocked, Xia Yu spun around in mid-air and landed steadily.He leaned over, swept his legs, and leaped, intending to escape from the encirclement of the yamen servants.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, the head-catching knife was already on Xia Yu's neck.

"Take it back!" Catcher yelled, and the yamen servants rushed up and held Xia Yu down.Tie your wrists with iron ropes and take them directly to the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment.

The person who died was a young girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, so this case should naturally be included in the "Missing Girl Case" of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

In the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Xia Yu kicked the door of the prison and shouted loudly, "Let me out, you arrested the wrong person. I didn't kill the person, I am wronged! Let me out, I am going to find Prince Rui, you go Find Prince Rui, he will prove my innocence."

At this time, it would be impossible not to move out Zhao Laojiu!

Life is at stake, so do what you want, as long as you can survive!
"Why are you yelling? If you yell any more, you will suffer a little. Lord Rui? Hmph, you can enter Prince Rui's mansion just because of you? Save your energy!" The jailer sneered, "I think you should think about it later. How to sign and draw a pledge. If you are sensible, it can give you a good time, and you can leave a full meal before you die, otherwise-you will feel better. Entering this prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is just one step away from the underworld."

Xia Yu pursed her lips, "Brother, please, can you send a letter to my family?"

"Why, you still let me go to Prince Rui's mansion to make trouble?" The jailer slammed a whip on the cell door, and Xia Yu was so startled that she hurriedly backed away, so that her cheeks would not bloom.

"No, no, my second brother is walking in the Wenhua Palace. I would like to trouble this elder brother, please do me a favor and report a letter to my family." She thought for a while, and prepared to take out valuables from her small bag as a gift.But—since it is a large prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, this small amount of money may not be able to convince the jailers outside.

Gritting her teeth, Xia Yu handed over half of the jade pendant left by Zhao Lu to the jailer, "Brother, please help me, my family has a lot of money, and I will definitely not treat you badly."

Just as the jailer was about to swing his whip, he glanced at the half jade pendant in Xia Yu's hand.

The quality of jade is transparent, like curdled fat.

This is the finest suet white jade, a good thing!

Although he is a jailer, it is inevitable that he accepts some property on weekdays, and he has a pair of tricky eyes, so he naturally recognizes these good things.The jailer saw that it was indeed a good thing that only rich people or high-ranking officials could use, so he put it in his sleeve immediately.

"Wait!" The jailer collected the things, and Xia Yu told him Liang Yiru's address.

Now, just wait for Liang Yiru, the great savior, to save her.

Xia Yu suddenly remembered the days when she was in Daizhou Mansion, Liang Yiru was the son of the magistrate, and every time she was thrown into prison, Liang Yiru always went to pick her up.After going so many times, the jailers recognized her, so there was no need to inform Liang Yiru.Go back in and gamble, and then get the jailers drunk, and she will be able to come out.Anyway, the things she committed were not serious, at most she was caught gambling, or fighting in the street, disturbing the people, burglary and so on.

No matter how many locks those big families have installed, she can still enter and exit freely.

Uncle Hai said that her talent is extremely high, if she can put all those thoughts on martial arts, her achievements will be incomparable.Unfortunately, Xia Yu was impatient.She has no interest in anything other than her gambling skills and her empty hands.

Sitting alone in the prison, Xia Yu leaned against the wall with a pile of straw in her arms, and she didn't know when the bookworm would come to rescue her.Originally, if Zhao Laojiu knew, he would definitely be able to take her out quickly, but it's a pity——it is said that she has a close relationship with Zhao Laojiu, but who would believe it?

One is the aloof Prince Rui, and the other is an idle ruffian, alas——

Xia Yu shook her head, closed her eyes helplessly, Jindu came in, let's take a break, sleep when she can, and eat when she can.

--------------

When Liang Yiru heard the news, it was already dawn.After breakfast, he was drinking tea and reading a book in the courtyard. Hearing that Xia Yu had killed someone, he entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Xiangyi took the silver and sent the jailer who reported the letter, "Master?"

"How could it be possible to kill someone?" Liang Yiru frowned, "With her temperament, you can say that she is believable when she is messing around. Killing people? Killing chickens, ducks and fish is almost the same." He put down the book and hurriedly walked out, chatting along the way. nagging.

After following Liang Yiru for so long, Xiangyi naturally knew that the young master was really in a hurry this time, otherwise the young master wouldn't be so thoughtful.

"My lord, where are you going?" Xiangyi asked.

Liang Yiru paused, "Xiangyi, go and get the picture of mountains and rivers for thousands of years that my father gave me."

Xiangyi was stunned, "My lord, that's the good thing you begged for from the master, it's—"

"No matter how good the thing is, if the person is gone, why do you need that thing?" Liang Yiru's face turned livid, "You can go if you are told, no matter what. Hurry up and get it! I'm going to Shen's residence."

"Young Master?" Xiangyi was reluctant, and opened his mouth, but he couldn't win Liang Yiru over.Holding the picture scroll in his arms, Xiangyi followed Liang Yiru silently, "My lord, if the master finds out, he will probably break my leg."

Liang Yiru took a deep breath, "If my father asks, I will bear it. What's more, what he gave me is mine."

The carriage quickly ran towards the Shen residence.

"My lord, we can actually ask Prince Rui. Hasn't Miss Xia stayed in Prince Rui's residence?" Xiangyi said in a low voice.

Liang Yiru didn't speak.

"My lord, let's not give away this thing, get something else." Xiangyi held the scroll and did not let go.

"Thousands of wealth, nothing to cherish." He murmured to himself, "If the prince intervenes in this matter, it will inevitably be suspected of covering up. The Palace of Prince Rui and the Palace of the Regent have fought privately for many years. Even though Ah Yu is deeply in love with Prince Rui, but— —After all, she is only a woman, how can she mess up the overall situation of the world? Her affairs are my affairs, and no one else needs to intervene. I will not go to him unless it is absolutely necessary. "

Xiangyi curled her lips, "My lord is reluctant!"

"Talking." Liang Yiru scolded lightly.

Xiangyi remained silent, lowered her head and sighed softly.

When he reached the gate of Shen's mansion, Liang Yiru looked up at the tall plaque.The man in white in the past is not what he used to be.

"Who are you looking for?" Liang Yiru was stopped by the servant at the door.

Liang Yiru stepped forward, "Brother, is your servant at home?"

The servant looked Liang Yiru up and down, "Who are you?"

"I'm going to visit Liang Yiru in the Wenhua Palace, pay homage to the servant, and I hope this elder brother will tell me." Liang Yiru's eyes were burning, but he still did not lose his courtesy, showing the utmost elegance.

"Wait!" The servant shouted, turned and walked in.

Shen Hao was practicing calligraphy in the study room, when he heard the report from his servant that it was Liang Yiru's visit, his eyebrows froze for a moment, and he couldn't help muttering in a low voice, "Liang Yiru? Why is he here?"

The attendant Xu Fu lowered his voice, "Master, if there is nothing to do, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall, I'm afraid there is something wrong!"

"Liang Yiru has always been a peaceful person, what could be the matter?" Suddenly, he frowned slightly, "I heard that a murderer was caught in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice last night, and he said he was the murderer of a young girl. Do you know about this?"

Xu Fu nodded, "Yes. The master asked Beizhi to pay attention to the affairs of the Criminal Department at any time, so Beizhi went to the Criminal Department every day. I heard that such a person was caught last night, and Beizhi also took a look from a distance. Thin I can't see his face clearly, but I heard people say that he has red lips and white teeth, so he doesn't look like a murderer."

"Skinny, small man?" Shen Hao gasped, "Whose hands is this case falling into now?"

"The humble job didn't pay attention." Xu Fu saluted.

Shen Hao narrowed his eyes, "You go and check, if it is really Xia Yu, it will be difficult!" It's not that he doesn't know that Xia Yu is now in Prince Rui's Mansion.If Xia Yu was the murderer last night, King Rui Zhao Shuo would intervene sooner or later.

Xu Fu nodded, "The humble job will be done immediately!"

Taking a deep breath, Shen Hao quickly walked towards the door.
