The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 20: I'm confused

These days, the newlywed Xu Haoran doesn't sleep well and always wakes up in the middle of the night. Not tired, but having nightmares and being entangled by evil spirits.

After breakfast, he was about to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but unexpectedly received a letter sent by His Royal Highness Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui?

All of a sudden, Xu Haoran thought of the wedding night, the Seventh Prince, who had never been in touch with him, seemed to have no intention of doing so, but after thinking about it afterwards, he intentionally made insinuations.

Does he know something?

Xu Haoran felt his heart tighten, and hurriedly asked his servants to bring the letter, opened the paper, and three words came into view.

"Wang Qingyin"!

Xu Haoran's pupils narrowed sharply, and he even took a step back, almost losing his footing.

After a while, he asked, "What else did you say?"

The servant replied: "Said the young master to go to Cuiyun Tower for a glass of water and wine."

"Prepare the car." Xu Haoran exhaled and shouted.

The servants went to arrange the carriage immediately.

When he came to the downstairs of Cuiyun, Xu Haoran walked in. Early in the morning, Cuiyun Building hadn't opened yet, but the owner of the restaurant enthusiastically sent Xu Haoran up to the third floor, to Xiao Rui's private room.

Knocking on the door, Xiao Rui opened it himself, and warmly welcomed him: "Master Xu, I invited you here so early, so I didn't disturb your rest."

Xu Haoran clasped his hands and said, "I've wanted to make friends with Your Highness for a long time, but I haven't had the chance for a long time. It should be the lower officials who invited His Highness. How can His Highness spend money? After the meeting, I will punish myself three cups."

The two sat down.

Xu Haoran took the initiative to pour the wine, Xiao Rui picked up the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Master Xu is working in the Metropolitan Procuratorate now? I have heard a long time about Master Xu's incorruptible style. When he was serving as a judge in Luzhou, he was praised by the people. I believe that the future is bright. In the future, together with your father, we will be the pillars of the Great Xia Kingdom."

Xu Haoran also picked up his wine glass, and replied: "It is an honor to serve the Great Xia Kingdom. I didn't expect that His Highness is busy with studies, and would care about the government affairs of the official in Luzhou, and the official is panicked."

"I'm full of curiosity about Mr. Xu, so I specially sent someone to Luzhou Prefecture, oh, and Tian'an County." Xiao Rui drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

Xu Haoran was stunned with the hand holding the wine glass, then put down the wine glass, stared at Xiao Rui, and asked, "Oh? Is that so? I don't know what the people sent there have found?"

Xiao Rui looked at him and found that his eyes were deep.

"Does Master Xu know Wang Qingyin? He and his family came to Beijing to see you, but they were brutally killed on the way home. Now that the capital is full of turmoil, why didn't Master Xu contact Ying Tianfu to provide some clues to solve the case as soon as possible?" Xiao Rui smiled.

Xu Haoran squinted his eyes and asked, "How did Your Highness know that Wang Qingyin came to Beijing to look for me? I don't even know. I've never seen them before, and I don't even know that the deceased in the murder case is their family. Hey, Pitiful."

Xiao Rui asked: "Master Xu, how did you know Wang Qingyin?"

"Why, Your Highness suspects that I killed their family?" Xu Haoran asked back.

Xiao Rui sighed, and said: "I didn't doubt you, but I just felt that five people died tragically, it was too pitiful, and that baby was still in its infancy. Since Mr. Xu knows Wang Qingyin, can he reveal some clues and help investigate the case?" ?”

"It was a coincidence. When I was working in Luzhou Prefecture, I went to Tian'an County to meet, so I am not familiar with it. Your Highness came to find me, and you found the wrong person." Xu Haoran laughed: "Besides, I didn't expect His Highness to be so benevolent. For a murder case, he spared no effort to do it himself."

"Haha... I know something, so I naturally want to explore it." Xiao Rui smiled, but in his heart he felt that this Xu Haoran was really hard to deal with, and his words were impeccable.

Xiao Rui decided to add a bit of excitement.

"But Mr. Xu, how did I hear that the child Wang Qingyin is holding is yours?" Xiao Rui asked.

"Impossible!" Xu Haoran frowned, and shouted angrily: "I keep myself clean, how can I get involved with a slut like Wang Qingyin, who is a slut who can be bullied?"

After finishing the angry words, Xu Haoran realized that he had lost his composure, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I am still busy going to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to sign in, and I still have a lot of official duties to do. If you have nothing else to do, the next official will Farewell."

After finishing speaking, Xu Haoran got up and was about to leave.

Xiao Rui got up to stop him, and said solemnly: "Wait a minute, I still have something to tell Mr. Xu."

"Please tell me, Your Highness!" Xu Haoran asked.

"Ying Tianfu's autopsy said that Wang Qingyin is still a big girl, not a broken flower, so I ask Mr. Xu to speak with dignity." Xiao Rui's tone became more serious.

"What?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Haoran was startled suddenly, and looked at Xiao Rui with a dull expression.

Xiao Rui suddenly realized that he seemed to have touched an important clue.

"What did you say?" Xu Haoran asked again.

Xiao Rui said: "I said that Wang Qingyin is an innocent woman, not a broken flower. Master Xu, don't slander the dead, the dead are the greatest."

"How is it possible! She has already given birth to a child." Xu Haoran roared, his eyes were slightly red.

This time it was Xiao Rui's turn to be confused: "Don't you know that the child in her bosom belongs to his older sister?"

Xu Haoran staggered and stroked the door with one hand.

"Sister? She also has a sister?" Xu Haoran muttered to himself.

"Yeah, they look almost exactly the same." Xiao Rui said.

Xu Haoran looked strange, suddenly let out a wail, and rushed out.

Xiao Rui wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

"Could it be that Xu Haoran always thought that the child belonged to Wang Qingyin, so he felt that she was dirty and wasted. He didn't know that she had a sister? So, this is the root cause of Wang Qingyin's family's tragic death?" Xiao Rui pondered.

"Ding dong... The task is completed, and the descending value is +10".

Fuck!

Xiao Rui was even more confused.

Xu Haoran didn't return home, but returned home.

He rushed into the house where his mother lived, opened the door and entered.

"Haoran, you didn't go on duty? Why did you lose your mind and act recklessly?" Mother Xu asked.

Xu Haoran blushed, and roared: "You and father deliberately kept it from me, the child is not Wang Qingyin's at all! The dissolute woman I once saw was her sister, not her!"

Xu's mother was taken aback, then sighed, and said: "Hao Ran, don't be angry, all this is for you, and you know that your father tried his best to help you marry Ruyang King's beloved daughter, but you But fell in love with a folk woman."

Xu Haoran staggered back, with tears in his eyes, and said angrily: "So you let Xu Ming hook up with Wang Qingyin's sister, deliberately let me see them lingering, and even told me that the child belonged to Wang Qingyin, making me think She is filthy, I don't know whose bastard, and she ran shamelessly and said she was my child?"

"Hey, your father and I want you to give up. I just didn't expect you to be so stubborn." Mother Xu sighed.

boom…

Xu Haoran slammed the door open and ran out immediately, even though Xu's mother yelled behind her, she didn't listen to persuasion.

There was no other way, Mother Xu could only send someone to inform Xu Xianyang.

Xu Xianyang was reviewing memorials in the cabinet when he heard a letter from home asking him to go home quickly.

If there were no major issues, he would not be in such a hurry, so he asked Li Mingchong, the chief minister of the cabinet, for a leave of absence, and quickly returned home.

When he got home, Mother Xu explained the situation to him.

Xu Xianyang comforted his wife and said: "Don't worry, Haoran will know as soon as he knows it, he will have to face it sooner or later. What I'm worried about now is who told him. Come and check, he didn't go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate this morning. Who did you meet?"

"Yes, sir." The following servant went to investigate immediately.

Soon, Xiao Rui was found.
