The Xie family’s matter was big, but no matter how big it was, it was not as big as the survival of Jingdou.
Chief Justice Xi couldn’t just turn around and deal with the Xie family’s affairs without saying anything. He had to ask Emperor Yong Ping first.
Chief Justice Xi had been an elder for several dynasties, from the founding emperor until now. Although he had a bad temper and had argued with the emperor when he was young, he always did it with reason. He didn’t do it because of his family background or his seniority.
Otherwise, he would have been taken care of long ago.
Emperor Yong Ping had just taken a break, but Tingwei Xi stirred up trouble.
At that time, his little face was pale. He thought that Jiankang City had been breached and directly shouted,”Where is Xie Pushe?” He looked for Xie Xian.
Chief Justice Xi’s head was soaked. It seemed that he was really going to resign after this matter was over. The new emperor was scared out of his wits and let him see it. He was afraid that he would think of this matter when he saw him in the future.
“Your Majesty is wise, something big has happened to the Xie family.”Chief Justice Xi hurriedly cut off the emperor’s words, afraid that the emperor would say something inappropriate.
If he was seen as a joke by others, it would be his old man’s fault.
“Ah… Ah?” Emperor Yong Ping came back to his senses and tilted his little head.”What’s wrong with the Xie family? What happened?”
” Thieves broke into the Xie family. There are more than a hundred of them-”
Emperor Yong Ping’s heart, which had just been relieved, was raised again.” A hundred people?”
Were the thieves of Jiankang City gathered together in an attempt to attack the Xie family?
Xie Xian, that was his pillar of white jade, the beam of purple gold that supported the sea. If anything happened to the Xie family, Xie Xian would be the first to be affected, and it would affect him.
“Is anyone injured?” Emperor Yong Ping’s handsome face was gloomy, but he had suddenly gone through a change in his voice. His voice was like a duck’s, and it was no longer as clear as before. It was a little ear-piercing. Especially when he was excited, he was like a duck.
“Someone is clearly targeting the Xie family! The dean of the supreme court should investigate the case thoroughly. At such a critical moment, there was actually someone who tried to fish in troubled waters. It was really extremely evil and must be severely punished!”
With just a few words, one could see the attitude of the Emperor, who was very concerned about Xie Xian.
And, don’t worry about yourself.
At the very least, if Xie Xian wanted him to leave the Palace now, the Emperor would definitely not allow it. However, he had something to do here. The Emperor did not even hesitate. He quickly went and dealt with it so that the Xie family would not be schemed against.
Tingwei Xi’s strong heart had nowhere to rest.
“This matter seems to be related to the Zhou Clan.” Chief Justice Xi hesitated, but he still told Emperor Yong Ping.
Just as he had expected, the emperor was even more irritable than Tingwei Xi had expected.
“Is it the Zhou family of Zhou Weiniang? What was going on with his family? Why was he being cheated by the other family? His daughter wanted to kill his wife, so who wanted to get rid of her?”
Emperor Yong Ping was furious. The governor of Zhou did not know how to appreciate favors and asked him to take up his post in Jiaozhou. However, he did not obey the decree. The governor of Jiaozhou, King Yi Yang, rebelled, but he did not have the slightest intention of moving.
To think that this Zhou Clan used to think that Chancellor Zhou was full of knowledge and was the role model of the aristocratic families. They were much more low-key than the Wang and Xie Clans.
Now, it seemed that the other party did not keep a low profile at all. He did not hesitate at all when he killed people. He did not show mercy. It wasn’t that he was keeping a low profile. He simply didn’t have the capital to be high-profile in the past.
“They must be severely punished!” Emperor Yong Ping’s eyes were spitting fire when he attacked the Xie family. He had the right to suspect that the Zhou family was colluding with the traitor and wanted to defeat him from the inside!
Chief Justice Xi sighed secretly. The Zhou Family was finished.
After giving Emperor Yong Ping instructions, he left.
Chief Justice Xi left, but Emperor Yong Ping was more energetic and didn’t feel sleepy anymore. After thinking about it, he couldn’t keep this matter a secret and couldn’t hide it either, so he ordered someone to call Xie Xian over.
If he was honest with others, the Xie family would attract thieves.
However, he quickly said,”However, only a few guards in the residence have suffered minor injuries. You don’t have to worry.” I’ve already told Chief Xi to handle this matter.”
Xie Xian didn’t sleep the entire night and paid close attention to the battle.
After two days, his body couldn’t take it anymore. His face was pale and his eyes were green.
Hearing the Emperor’s comfort, Xie Xian said after a long while,”I am relieved that my family is unharmed. The chief justice was upright and upright, so he should be the one to try this case.”
The news that Xiao Baoxin had sent into the palace earlier was like a breeze passing through water without leaving a trace. He pretended not to have heard it and did not show it on his face at all.
How could Emperor Yong Ping not know his character? He was a person who feared his wife like a tiger. If his brother-in-law in the far Jing State had any trouble, he would be the first to know. Xiao Baoxin’s news would immediately follow up and not leak out.
How could Xie Xian not be anxious when such a big thing happened in the Xie residence?
However, he couldn’t bring himself to say the words to return to his residence. It was a critical moment in the battle between the two sides.
“Why don’t you send your trusted aides back to the residence to take a look?”
As soon as Emperor Yong Ping finished speaking, Xie Xian’s eyes lit up.”Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do it now.”
He got up and left, leaving Emperor Yongping behind to stare at Xie Xian’s back with the corners of his mouth twitching. This meant that Xie Xian had gone to the bottom of his heart.
However, Xie Xian did not forget about his personal affairs and returned to his residence. Emperor Yong Ping was gratified.
Even if he placed the tiger wife in his heart, Xie Xian still placed the overall situation first. Little did they know that everything was already under Xie Xian’s control, but it was inconvenient for him to know the channel to pass the news in the Palace.
This was a great taboo for those in power. Xie Xian naturally would not make a mistake here.
He went out of the hall to find a cool breeze, put on an act, and sent him back to the Xie residence.
Although Xie Xian knew that there was nothing at home, he naturally couldn’t send in all the news, no matter how big or small. If Qing Feng could make this trip, he could bring even more people into the palace.
“Tell the mansion not to do anything about this matter, let Chief Justice Xi handle it. As for the rest, I’ll be there.” Xie Xian instructed softly.
Qing Feng nodded, indicating that he understood.

In fact, the Xie family didn’t need to do anything. After seeing Emperor Yong Ping, Chief Justice Xi knew what the higher-ups meant. They didn’t even try the case when they came out of the Imperial Palace and arrested the Zhou family’s men and women, old and young, even the servants.
What was important was speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.
Although the leader was mute and couldn’t speak, he could read a few big words and write whatever he could. Where did they discuss it? Through whom did Provincial Governor Zhou find him? How many silver taels did he give him?
That silver note was still hidden in Mute’s pants pocket. Taking it out was evidence.
Cishi Zhou was also a man of love. He pleaded guilty in court and took it all on his own.
Since Mute had only identified Provincial Governor Zhou and Tingwei Xi was kind to others, the others simply went through the court and went through the procedures.
It didn’t even take four hours from the trial to the conclusion of the case.
The grand robbery of the Xie family was announced to be solved, and the governor of Zhou and Mute were sentenced to beheading after autumn.
The problem was that it was now after autumn.
Emperor Yongping didn’t read the file. After hearing Xi Tingwei’s reply, he directly hooked the hook and executed him..
