~8 min read 1,452 words

"Your Ji family deserves to die, all of you deserve to die. Who let your family raise the foundation, the roof is half a foot higher than my house, ruining my family's Feng Shui. I have four sons, four! The Ji family only has three. The Ji family has always been a head lower than my Xia family, now the Ji family is flourishing, clearly grabbing my Xia family's luck, ruining my family's Feng Shui. Little rabbit, why didn't you die. I will kill you now!"

Xia Laoguan suddenly broke out, rushed up, pinched Ji Chengqi's neck, shouting and killing. Ji Chengqi was not a master who would be beaten, tearing, fists, and lower three roads.

The two twisted together, all going to die.

Huang Ye roared, hurriedly opened the cell door, took the prison guards and rushed into the cell, picked up the water and fire stick and greeted the two of them. It looked like there was no method, but most of the sticks fell on Xia Laoguan.

Pitter-patter, a beating, finally pulled the two people who were fighting to death apart.

Chen Guanlou stood outside the cell door, now he finally knew why both of them had bruised noses and swollen faces. With this fighting posture, no one died, purely because of chicken pecking.

Xia Laoguan could complete the extermination tragedy, purely because he occupied the time and place, sneaked into the Ji family in the middle of the night, caught off guard. Plus there was the third son as an accomplice, the main force of killing.

Chen Guanlou coughed lightly, Huang Ye hurriedly ran out of the cell door, and asked, "What orders does the lord have?"

Chen Guanlou stared at Ji Chengqi, "What's going on with him, why was he locked into the Bing-character size prison?"

Huang Ye hesitated for a while, signaling Chen Guanlou to walk further away before whispering.

"Reporting to the lord, it's like this, after the Ji family extermination case happened, it only took two days, the Six Fan Gate broke the case, and killed the resisting Xia Laosan on the spot. Last month, Xia Laoguan had already passed the hall and was sentenced to be beheaded. Logically speaking, this case ended here. Unexpectedly, on the third day after the verdict came down, the Xia family also had an extermination tragedy."

"What?"

Chen Guanlou flipped through the file, didn't see this part of the content.

"The Xia family's case is still under investigation, so there is no file."

"Since this is the case, why is Ji Chengqi in the Heavenly Prison?"

Huang Ye explained, and Chen Guanlou finally understood the whole picture of the matter.

The Xia family extermination case, except for Xia Laoguan locked in the Heavenly Prison, and Xia Erlang who was outside all year round, and Xia Dalang who was seriously injured and not dead, the whole family of seven or eight people all died.

The case happened very strangely.

Once the case came out, everyone suspected that the Xia family extermination case was done by Ji Chengqi, a proper revenge. Except for the Ji surname, no one would kill the Xia family.

However, on the day of the case, Ji Chengqi was in the academy. The teachers of the academy, classmates, and the coachman who waited for work in the academy could all prove this point.

Despite this, he still had suspicion on him. He didn't do it, doesn't mean he wouldn't buy murder.

Don't forget, Ji Chengqi also had two brothers-in-law. Especially the second brother-in-law, as a merchant, often running outside, knowing three religions and nine streams in various places. Helping to contact a few killers was not a problem.

The key lies in the evidence.

Furthermore, Xia family's second son, it is said that someone has written a letter asking Xia Laoer to go home. Xia Laoer worshiped a teacher to learn art outside, and was a ruthless person. If he returned to the capital, he would 100% kill the suspect Ji Chengqi.

The government side, definitely more sympathetic to the scholar Ji Chengqi who suffered an innocent disaster. But the Xia family's case, also couldn't be indifferent.

Although there was no evidence, Ji Chengqi was still locked up, temporarily locked up, lest people run away. But didn't intend to make things difficult for him.

Originally should be locked in the county government, that side had already greeted.

Ji Chengqi actively requested to be locked into the Heavenly Prison.

He wanted to kill the enemy with his own hands!

The Ministry of Justice satisfied him.

Officials, usually, would stand on the side of scholars. Not to mention, Ji Chengqi was a 100% bitter master, without half a fake. As for the Xia family extermination case, this was not evidence, how could it be counted on the head of little Ji classmate.

Even if he really bought murder, he had to find the killer, find the murder weapon, find the evidence...

One day without finding evidence to nail little Ji classmate, one day little Ji classmate was the object that officials wanted to care for.

Chen Guanlou learned the whole picture of the matter, clicked his tongue twice, quite emotional.

"Just because of jealousy, two families died nearly twenty people, tragic. Why didn't Ji Chengqi pass the hall, didn't it say he had suspicion?"

"Above sees him pitiful, and he is a scholar, heard that his academic performance is very good. If there was no extermination case, he would successfully take the exam for scholar merit next spring. In addition, since the Ji family incident, his teacher has also been running for him. Heard that his teacher has a great reputation, and also knows Minister Shang, so..."

Taking care of relationship households, Chen Guanlou understood. He often did this kind of thing.

"Is the Xia family extermination case so hard to check? When did the Six Fan Gate become so incompetent."

Even if it was buying murder, with the financial resources of the Ji family and two sisters, at most they could only invite first or second-rank martial artists. Second-rank martial artists were afraid it was a bit difficult!

There were so many masters in the Six Fan Gate, the eyes and ears were all over the place, and they couldn't check it out?

He suspected that the Six Fan Gate was releasing water.

After all, people in this day and age believe in not being a gentleman if they don't report their grudges.

Ji Chengqi "revenge", killed the Xia family, in the scholar group, actually received widespread praise. In the mouths of neighbors, although the praise and criticism were not the same, those who praised were obviously more than those who scolded.

Even the Ministry of Justice, on the surface, does not support people's mutual revenge, mutual killing, causing social chaos, heart dispersion, not easy to manage, and even more provocation to the law. But privately, many people praised Ji Chengqi for being good, should be like this, tooth for tooth.

The Xia family exterminated the Ji family, and the Ji family descendants exterminated the Xia family. No need to wait for eighteen years, eighteen days to report the grudge, it can be called "revenge not overnight"!

Many people were deeply impressed.

A young man under twenty, having this blood, this courage, and strategy, didn't rush alone with a knife, but made full preparations, had sufficient proof of absence. Truly a good seedling! Worthy of being a scholar.

Scholars should be like this, brave and resourceful, wise and brave!

Huang Ye pinched his nose, "Maybe, perhaps, the Xia family extermination case is really hard to handle. So much so that after so long, the real murderer hasn't been found."

Chen Guanlou bared his teeth, with a look of indescribable, the Ministry of Justice and the Six Fan Gate released water, released too blatantly. He was embarrassed to say it.

He asked the other party, "Does Xia Laoguan know that the Xia family has been killed?"

"Should not know. I gave a gag order to the prison guards below, not allowing them to mention a word."

"Ji Chengqi didn't say either?"

"That kid is insidious, his mouth is also very strict, from beginning to end, not a word was revealed." Huang Ye's view of Ji Chengqi was very complicated, after all, he was in close contact with the other party every day, knowing more about this person than outsiders.

Must report grudges, true man, true blood... these are temporarily not discussed, the heart is really many, the brain is turning fast, a belly of ghost ideas. Definitely not the pitiful little cabbage rumored outside, the upright person who stands up. Even a bit evil! ===== CHAPTER 1214 =====
