The daughter-in-law of the cold father and the hot concubine

Chapter 768 Shot! (2)
The couple appeared here, but the fifth son-in-law remained silent. Just as Chu Yuliang was about to speak, Yan Hongxuan had already walked over and grabbed the fifth son-in-law by the shoulders to make him lean back.

"Ah—" Seeing the blood spilling from the corner of Zhao Guangpeng's mouth and the opening of his eyes, Chu Yuliang couldn't help crying out.And following Yan Hongxuan's movement of making him lean up, she saw clearly that there was a dagger stuck in Zhao Guangpeng's abdomen.

The situation in front of him was really unexpected, and even Yan Hongxuan's face became gloomy.

The shock at this moment far surpassed the horror of the dead, Chu Yuliang ran over, wanting to find out, "Master, he..."

Yan Hongxuan raised his hand to signal her to stop talking, and then pulled out the dagger from Zhao Guangpeng's stomach. He didn't know how long he had been dead. There was no blood splashing out when the dagger left his stomach, and when Yan Hongxuan pulled the dagger out easily, there was no sense of firmness at all. .

The couple looked at each other, before they could speak, suddenly there were footsteps in the corridor, and soon, several people who looked like officials rushed in, and someone pointed a sword at them, and one of them exclaimed, "Sure enough, there are people walking here!" Kill people, catch them quickly!"

The situation in front of me can be said to be full of the drama department.Yan Hongxuan looked at them with a gloomy expression, still holding the dagger in his hand and didn't intend to throw it away.Chu Yuliang, on the other hand, became a little angry, pointing at the exclaimed officer and asked, "What do you say? Who did the murder?"

The other party pointed directly at the dagger in Yan Hongxuan's hand and Zhao Guangpeng who had already stiffened, "We received a report that someone here committed an attack that would harm the fifth son-in-law. I didn't expect you to really kill the fifth son-in-law. Now that there are all witnesses and evidence, you still want to quibble. ?”

Chu Yuliang raised his face, "So we can be sure that we killed someone? Since you know that this is the fifth son-in-law, do you know who we are?"

The other party straightened his neck and said solemnly, "We don't need to know who you are, but we know that the emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Please also come with us to the Yamen. If you have anything to say, you can talk to our adults."

Chu Yuliang gritted her teeth with a cold face.It's also because they are usually too low-key, so others don't take them seriously.

Just when she was furious, Yan Hongxuan suddenly pulled her back, "It's okay, they deal with it fairly, so we'll follow them to the yamen."

After speaking, he walked out the door with his arms around Chu Yuliang's shoulders, still holding the dagger in his hand.Seeing that they were quite self-conscious, the officials did not embarrass them. Some stayed behind to inspect the scene and the corpses, and some followed them closely, as if they were afraid that they would escape.

In the yamen, it was heard that King Xian and Princess Xian had murdered, and the newly appointed prefect Chen Fan hurried to the court.

The previous magistrate was dismissed because he colluded with Yan Zibin to drug the well water, and he was handed over to Zixian by Yan Hongxuan. This Chen Fan was promoted by Yan Hongxuan to Yan Futian.Seeing the couple, Chen Fan hurriedly kowtowed and saluted. He was extremely respectful, "I will see the virtuous king and the virtuous concubine, but I couldn't go far to greet them, so please invite the virtuous king and concubine."

Yan Hongxuan said with a sullen face, "Get up."

As soon as Chen Fan got up, he saw his subordinates carrying a stiff dead body to the hall, so he stepped forward and asked, "Captain Li, what's going on?"

The head catcher surnamed Li was the man who said that Chu Yuliang and Yan Hongxuan had killed people in the restaurant. Hearing Chen Fan's questioning, he hurriedly replied, "My lord, I have received a report that someone murdered someone in Daxing Restaurant." Go ahead, little ones, and you are meeting King Xian and Princess Xian, and King Xian is holding a murder weapon..."

Before he could speak, Chen Fan suddenly slapped him across the face, "You bastard, you actually suspect that the virtuous king and concubine killed people? I think you don't want to live anymore!"

Catcher Li covered his face, a little unconvinced, "My lord, when we rushed there, King Xian and Princess Wang were holding murder weapons... It's not a small suspicion, but everyone has seen it."

Chen Fan's face turned blue.When he saw clearly the dead man on the ground, he was stunned for a moment, isn't this the fifth son-in-law?

Suddenly, his mind was in a mess, and he wished he could faint immediately.

Seeing his reaction, Chu Yuliang reminded angrily, "Minister Chen, don't be dazed, start the trial, we are still in a hurry to go back and take care of the children."

Chen Fan came back to his senses, and looked at the couple at a loss, "My lord, my concubine... this, this..." Those bastards, why didn't they announce the death in advance as the fifth son-in-law?Can he handle this case?

The embarrassment in his eyes is not that the couple can't see it, it's just that the couple are not in a good mood now.Yan Hongxuan pursed his thin lips and remained silent, giving his woman the right to speak.Chu Yuliang was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger. Seeing that Chen Fan didn't know where to start, she commanded bluntly, "Why are you standing there? Why don't you hurry up and let the autopsy be done!"

Only then did Chen Fan "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

The head catcher surnamed Li was slapped, and he wanted to quit a long time ago. Hearing Chen Fan's order, he quickly quit the court.

Chen Fan cupped his hands and asked Yan Hongxuan and Chu Yuliang cautiously, "My lord, my concubine, forgive me for asking, what happened? Can you tell me so that I can know."

Chu Yuliang didn't hide anything, and told him everything about their going to the restaurant, and finally couldn't help reminding him, "Master Chen, we are not defending ourselves, but anyone with a bit of common sense should know that. People are dead and stiff, how could we kill them?"

Chen Fan nodded, "My concubine reminds me that the officials will definitely investigate clearly so that the prince and concubine are innocent."

Chu Yuliang was not particularly relieved, and said to him seriously, "You can just call your assistant, and you should not interfere with other matters. We will send us and the corpses of the fifth consort into the palace later. Let the emperor handle this matter." Deal with it, so as not to embarrass you."

Hearing what she said, Chen Fan showed gratitude, "Thank you, Princess, for your understanding. Why don't you go and prepare the carriage right away, and send you and the prince into the palace as soon as Wu Zuo arrives?" It's really worrying for him to come to trial for such a thing, The prince and concubine have favored him for promotion, but if they appeared at the scene of the crime, if he tried the case impartially, he might easily offend others.He also didn't believe that the prince and concubine were the murderers, but whatever the facts were, it was most appropriate for the emperor to decide.

Chu Yuliang looked at the man beside her, and seeing that he had no objection, she didn't say anything else.
