My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 508: Closing the Case

Translator: 549690339

Censor Xiao’s resignation memorial was placed on Emperor Yong Ping’s imperial desk as scheduled. However, as Xie Xian had expected, the Emperor did not approve it. Instead, he invited the court judge to go to the Xiao family to treat his illness.

Fortunately, according to the court’s judgment, Imperial Censor Xiao’s condition was not serious and he would recover in a few days.

Emperor Yong Ping had even more to say. He gave Imperial Censor Xiao sick leave and told him to rest at home. He would only carry out his official duties when he was better.

Of course, there was a time limit. At most a month. If Imperial Censor Xiao’s transfer was not easy, then he definitely could not keep his position empty.

Imperial Censor Xiao immediately became anxious. He couldn’t wait to be cured immediately and actively entered the treatment.

Her desire to stand up for Xiao Jing ‘ai also faded. After all, a dead person could not be brought back to life. Thinking about it carefully, he did not think that Yang Shao really needed to kill people. He really did not want to love Xiao Jing anymore. It was fine to just divorce him directly.

After all, it was Xiao Jing ‘ai who wanted to get a divorce on the spot. Yang Shao was affectionate and righteous. He could have said that he wanted to get a divorce. If he didn’t do anything out of line, he would have to divorce…

Thinking of this, his heart relaxed a little.

After all, he had caused a huge ruckus in the Yang family and even alerted the Jiankang order. Yang Shao still treated him with respect and showed no signs of fighting to the death. Even if he twisted his waist, he would still hit Yang Shao. Yang Shao subconsciously dodged and knew that he had hurt his waist. He didn’t care about the past and sent him back to the Xiao family.

As for how he sent it back, Imperial Censor Xiao didn’t want to mention it.

She was already in her forties. It was not a glorious thing for a man to carry her back to the residence, even if that person was her son-in-law.

However, unexpectedly, the new Jiankang magistrate was indeed smart and capable. In just two days, he had investigated the matter thoroughly. There was a servant girl in the Yang residence who recognized the concubine Lan Ying, who was in charge of the house. All the medicine had to be boiled by the old woman she sent.

Originally, he couldn’t find the dregs of his medicine. Every time he used them, they would be thrown away like trash. However, it was a coincidence that day. The day Xiao Jing ‘ai died, the medicine she had taken that night was left behind. From this, it could be seen that Xiao Jing’ ai did not wait until the night to take the medicine before she died. The maid became suspicious and secretly stayed behind. He had wanted to extort Lanying when the time was right, but he did not expect Censor Xiao to not let it go. When the matter reached the Jiankang order, the maid had a guilty conscience and confessed everything without being interrogated.

The health order followed the clues and arrested the doctor who treated Xiao Jing ‘ai for interrogation. In the end, the doctor did not confess at first. He confessed even after 20 strokes. Lan Ying actually spent 100 taels of silver to bribe him and let him add a blood circulation medicine to the medicine.

After all, Xiao Jing ‘ai was already drenched in blood after her miscarriage. Coupled with the fact that her blood was still circulating, wouldn’t she die over time?

As for where the 100 taels of silver came from, it was ironic. Lan Ying had sent her trusted maid to steal the silver from Xiao Jing ‘ai’s dowry. Then, he used it to bribe the doctor and took Xiao Jing ‘ai’s life instead.

When Censor Xiao heard this, tears welled up in his eyes.

It’s time, it’s fate.

Yang Shao was furious and immediately went to Imperial Censor Xiao to beg for forgiveness. His face was swollen from the slap.

He blamed himself for trusting Lan Ying and making her have the heart to bully her master.

It was also because there was no one in the Yang family to control them that Lan Ying’s ambition was indulged.

Imperial Censor Xiao actually knew that Yang Shao did not kill him, so he felt more or less relieved. As for Lan Ying…They were the dowry maids that the Xiao family had brought to Xiao Jing ‘ai. Even the concubines were carried by Xiao Jing’ ai personally.

As for why the Yang family did not have a housekeeper and let a concubine come out, it was all Xiao Jing ‘ai’s own fault. He caused the child to die and could not get out of bed, and a pillow hurt his mother-in-law’s old waist. Not only did it hurt the person, but it also hurt the heart. So, no matter how big or small the matter was, the family did not care?

Who was to blame?

Yang Shao was 30% guilty, but Xiao Jing ‘ai was 70% guilty.

The two of them hugged each other and let go of their previous grudges.

When Xiao Baoxin heard Madam Xie’s words, he was also speechless.

There was nothing to say.

He really had nothing to say.

Lan Ying was crippled. She went crazy after a few days in prison and died before she could even make it to the execution. There wasn’t even a corpse. Of course, this was a story for the future.

The Xiao and Yang families had reconciled because of Lan Ying’s imprisonment.

The case was solved quickly. It had only been two days since the death of Xiao Jing ‘ai. Xiao Jing’ ai had died in peace before he was even buried. However, there was a heated discussion in Jiankang.

By the time Emperor Yong Ping heard about it, the case had already been closed.

Second Lady Xiao was the person he had once felt his heart throb with when he was young. He couldn’t help but sigh when he heard this.

“What a pity…Beauty… You’re so unlucky.”

When Yang Shao heard this, he felt disgusted. What beauty? How was it a pity?

He didn’t think so at all.

But thinking about the Emperor’s age, it was possible that his knowledge was limited.

When they were young, who hadn’t had their eyes covered by feces? He was more impressive. When he was young, he had a unique vision, but unfortunately, he did not cherish it. When he was successful, he floated and let shit blind his eyes. He gave up pearls and had dead fish eyes.

“We still have to live.” Emperor Yongping sighed.

Ever since Yang Shao was framed by Xie Xian, he had been blamed for the Dragon’s Merit. In addition, he had made a great contribution in Stone City, so he was deeply trusted by the Emperor. It was not impossible to say that he was the second person under Xie Xian.

“That’s right…” Yang Shao smiled bitterly and wanted to continue. He wanted to continue.

If Censor Xiao did not let him go, it would not be considered a stain on his reputation. If he was accused, then he would not be strict with his family.

Moreover, since Lan Ying was sent to prison, Censor Xiao had protected Yang Shao a lot, even better than when Xiao Jing ‘ai died.

The Emperor’s words were finished. Yang Shao only thought that the Emperor was sighing for a moment, but he did not know that the Emperor had taken this matter to heart. With such a talented and capable person who had become a widower, he should be in his hands.

He immediately took it to heart.

###

Xiao Jing ‘ai’s funeral was held fourteen days after her death. Because the first seven days coincided with the Empress’ wedding, it could only be delayed.

There was no one in the world who would cause trouble for the royal family on the day of the Empress Ceremony, let alone the courtiers.

Sikong Xiao had rushed back to Jiankang the day before the Emperor and Empress ‘wedding. It was a good sign for the Emperor to travel day and night. Although it was already evening when they entered the city, Emperor Yong Ping still welcomed them outside the city. The monarch and his subjects entered Jiankang City hand in hand.

The entire Jiankang City was in an uproar. Even the drizzle from the sky could not stop the enthusiasm of the people. Both sides of the street had been waiting at noon until Sikong Xiao entered the city and they confirmed it with their own eyes. Only then did they gradually disperse.

Emperor Yong Ping still had a grand wedding the next day, so the monarch and his subjects parted ways on the Imperial Street and returned to their respective homes.

Xiao Baoxin, with his big belly, was already waiting with Xie Xian at the Xiao residence. The same was still Imperial Censor Xiao’s family. Even Xi Sanlang and Xiao Miaorong were present. Everyone had a look of joy on their faces. Only Imperial Censor Xiao’s mouth was slightly crooked. No matter how one looked at it, his smile looked a little ferocious..
