Chapter 453 Heading to the He Family
"Anyway, listening to their conversation, they are almost hooking up. That Yan'er pretended to be weak and said she didn't dare to open the door, so He Yuanwei opened it himself." After saying that, Yang Manman looked at Jiang Suining in confusion, "Why are you asking these questions?" Jiang Suining didn't answer, just glanced at Yang Manman, and then turned and left the cell. "Jiang Suining, you haven't answered me yet, who told you to leave! Jiang Suining!" Yang Manman's voice mixed with fear and anger came from behind, Jiang Suining ignored it, walked straight out of the Ministry of Justice. Xier was waiting outside, and when she saw her young lady coming out, she hurried forward. "Young lady, did you ask anything?" "It's almost the same as what Lord Pei said, but..." Thinking of what Yang Manman said about the relationship between Yan'er and He Yuanwei, Jiang Suining thought. "It seems that I have to go to the He family." Xier frowned, "Young lady, do you really want to take care of Yang Manman?" The other party has been causing trouble for the young lady! "I don't care whether Yang Manman lives or dies, but the road to becoming a female official has just been paved, and we can't let her cut off the way forward." The truth of the matter must be found out. If Yang Manman is really the murderer, she should be severely punished by law, but if there is something else going on, it must be found out. "But we have never had any dealings with the He family. Wouldn't it be too presumptuous to go there like this?" Jiang Suining thought about it and smiled, "We don't have any reason to go there, but Shen Yanxi does." The next day, at the He family. When Jiang Suining and Shen Yanxi got off the carriage together, the mourning hall of the He family had been set up, but there were no guests to pay their respects. In the past few years, the He family was considered prosperous, and both father and son served as officials in the court. But now, both of them are dead, He Yuanwei has no brothers, and his wife's family has been raided. It seems that the He family is about to fall. Not to mention those who had little contact with him before, even colleagues and friends who often came and went and seemed to have a good relationship on the surface, many of them did not want to be involved anymore. It is normal for people to leave and the tea to get cold. Shen Yanxi stood at the door of the He Mansion, looking at the white cloth and lanterns that had been hung. "The mourning hall was set up quickly." Jiang Suining stood beside him and said, "I heard that not long after Yang Huihui and the others returned home yesterday, the housekeeper of the He Mansion went to ask Pei Zhaozhi, saying that the old lady He was crying at home, and wanted them to see the body for the last time before it decayed, so they brought He Yuanwei's body back." The case has not been finally closed yet. In theory, in order to prevent a second autopsy, the body should be kept in the Ministry of Justice for another two days. However, there are still human feelings outside the rules. It seems that there is indeed conclusive evidence that Yang Manman killed someone, and it is understandable that the He family wants to take the body back, and Pei Zhaozhi can't stop it. Shen Yanxi looked at Jiang Suining, "Why do you think there are still doubts about this matter?" Jiang Suining thought for a while and shook his head, "Actually, I can't explain it either. It may be just like what Lord Pei said. It feels like everything is too smooth. From Yang Manman being captured and brought back to the mansion, to He Yuanwei opening the door to take revenge on Yang Manman, to Yang Manman killing, escaping, being captured, and confessing, all of this happened in just one night and one morning. It's really too smooth." Moreover, she still doubted whether Yang Manman could really kill He Yuanwei in one go. "Then check it out." Shen Yanxi held Jiang Suining's hand with a smile in his eyes, "Let's go, let's go in." Jiang Suining looked at Shen Yanxi. Although it was the easiest way to come to the He family with Shen Yanxi's identity, Shen Yanxi and He Yuanwei didn't have much contact. Now that he came first to pay his respects, it would definitely attract a lot of attention. In addition, Shen Yanxi is now in the limelight in the court, and any small action can attract attention... The words of apology came to her lips, and when she was about to say it, Jiang Suining suddenly stopped. Shen Yanxi saw her thoughts and smiled, "You want to say sorry, why don't you say it?" Jiang Suining smiled like Shen Yanxi, "I thought about it, and felt that sometimes it's no big deal to implicate you, so I don't want to say it." "That's more like it!" Shen Yanxi's lips rose in joy, he didn't want to hear Ningning apologize to him in a distant way. Seeing that they had already walked to the gate of the mansion, Jiang Suining shook Shen Yanxi's hand lightly and whispered. "Constrain yourself, you are smiling so much that people don't know that we are here to attend a wedding banquet. Be careful that the He family will beat you out later." Shen Yanxi coughed lightly, suppressed a little smile, but leaned close to Jiang Suining and whispered. "Don't worry, Ningning, your husband is very proud of himself. Now, I'm afraid that no one in the court dares to beat me out of the house with a big stick." Jiang Suining smiled in her heart and reminded: "We haven't gotten married yet!" "Isn't it right in front of us? It doesn't matter if you call first. Don't worry, I won't charge you." Jiang Suining: "..." If it weren't for the gatekeeper of the He family who had already come to greet him, Jiang Suining really wanted to pinch Shen Yanxi's face. The speed at which his face grew thicker was too fast. After Shen Yanxi revealed his identity, a servant immediately went to report the news. At the same time, the housekeeper of the He Mansion who was originally guarding the door respectfully invited Shen Yanxi and Jiang Suining in. The lobby of the He family has been decorated as a mourning hall at this moment. The air is full of the smell of incense, candles and paper money, and there is also a little flying ash. Yang Huihui, wearing a linen dress, looked very haggard. She was kneeling in front of the coffin to burn paper. Seeing someone coming to mourn, she stepped aside. After Shen Yanxi and Jiang Suining offered incense, Yang Huihui kowtowed to them to express her gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Shen, Miss Jiang..." "Madam He, I am sorry for your loss." Shen Yanxi said. Jiang Suining reached out to help Yang Huihui up, "Madam He, although you have encountered an unexpected change, you should still take good care of yourself and put your health first." While helping her, Jiang Suining pretended to pull up a part of Yang Huihui's sleeve, and when he saw the scar on her arm, he looked away calmly. "Thank you, Miss Jiang." Yang Huihui bowed her head to thank him. After she stood up, she looked at the coffin in the middle of the mourning hall with a sad look. "Now that my husband is gone and my mother is seriously ill, the He family has no one to rely on. No matter what, I will definitely hold on until my husband's funeral is over." "Although I don't know much about Lord He, we are officials in the same court after all. If the He family needs anything in the future, you can just ask." "Thank you, Lord Shen. I think my husband's spirit in heaven will be grateful for your kindness." Shen Yanxi shook his head. "Madam He, you are too kind." While the two were talking, Jiang Suining looked around. In addition to Yang Huihui, there were a few maids, and he didn't see Wang or He's mother. "Madam He, I heard that your mother, Old Lady Yang, is also in the He family now. I wonder if I can meet her?"
