2095 Is manzhu a suspect?
Song Yi walked over and knelt down beside Mrs. Song.”It’s this student’s fault. I concealed the truth. But I really don’t know why miss Xie is in trouble.”
Gu Xin turned her head to look at Xie Jun. Coincidentally, Xie Jun was about to scold someone. When he saw Gu Xin looking over, he shut up obediently. However, he looked at Song Yi as if he wanted to eat him up.
“Since you and miss Xie know each other, did you see her on the seventh day of the new year?” Gu Xin asked.
“Yes,” Song Yi replied after a moment of silence.
Seeing that he had stopped talking, Gu Xin frowned and said coldly, ” “Tell me the truth about what happened that day!”
Mrs. Song also pulled Song Yi’s sleeve.
Song Yi said,”after I learned that day, I prepared to go home as usual.” As they left the Academy, they saw miss Xie leaving with another girl. That girl wasn’t manzhu, who was always by miss Xie’s side. At first, the student felt that it was a little strange, because every time miss Xie appeared, she would bring manzhu along. That girl’s clothes were not the clothes of the Xie family’s maidservants, but just like what an ordinary girl would wear. The student wasn’t familiar with miss Xie. Although he felt it was strange, he didn’t go forward to ask. The student went home. I’ve already explained what happened after last night.”
Gu Xin was a little angry,’since you knew, why didn’t you tell me last night? If he didn’t do it, what was the point of telling the truth? Song Yi, you were born as a student of the great Zhou Dynasty and you are also preparing for the imperial examination, but you do not believe in the Imperial court. Do you know that we might miss out on some clues if you hide it from us? Do you know that you’ll be the biggest suspect if your cover is found out?”
Song Yi lowered his head,”I know I was wrong, please punish me, Princess!”
Gu Xin,’Chen Xiaoli, bring Song Yi back to the Yamen! If this case isn’t closed, you’re not allowed to release him!”
“Princess, don’t!” Mrs. Song was shocked. Yi ‘er didn’t kill anyone, and everything she said was the truth. Yi ‘er still has to take the Imperial examinations in the future, so she can’t be in jail! Please have mercy, Princess, please have mercy!”
Mrs. Song kept on kowtowing and Gu Xin immediately got someone to help her up.
Ye cuiru also stepped forward to help persuade him.
Gu Xin laughed coldly,’are you guys teaching me how to do things? If you continue to make trouble, I’ll take you away as well!”
Mrs. Song fainted again, and ye cuiru was pulled to the side by Mrs. Zhu.
Gu Xin glanced at ye cuiru and Mrs. Zhu. Mrs. Zhu lowered her head and apologized. Ye cuiru lowered her head and hid her hand in her sleeve. Gu Xin could see that she was clenching her fist tightly.
Song Yi asked Gu Xin to give him some time to settle his mother. Gu Xin agreed and asked the guards to follow Song Yi into the house. What if the mother and son had something to say in private again?
When Song Yi was carrying Mrs. Song back to their room, Gu Xin looked at Xie Jun, ” “You can go back! I’ll be in charge of this case, and I’ll find the real murderer and give miss Xie An explanation.”
Xie Jun pursed his lips. Finally, he cupped his fists and thanked her. Then, he asked, ” “Princess, I would like to ask if Song Yi really had nothing to do with my sister’s death?”
Gu Xin sized him up and said, ” “I don’t have the final say on whether there’s a relationship or not. When there is no evidence, everyone who knows miss Xie may be related to this matter.”
Xie Jun was silent for a while and then asked, ” “Where’s manzhu? Does Princess think that man Zhu is a suspect?”
Gu Xin raised her eyebrows, this rich kid actually had a brain, ” “How do you know?”
