The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy
Chapter 20 Xiao Family
Mu Qing finished reading the account book with an expressionless face, and then rushed to the Xiao Mansion without stopping.
At this time, the Xiao Mansion was brightly lit with candles.
Xiao Yunhe knelt in the middle of the hall in a state of embarrassment. He lowered his head and said in a difficult tone, "Dad, I was confused for a moment and was schemed against. If it weren't for my younger sister's reminder, the herbal medicine shop would have been in jeopardy given that it was still under my son's name."
After leaving the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Yunhe originally wanted to find Deng Qing for a face-to-face confrontation, but halfway there, he slowly calmed down and turned to go to the Liang Mansion.
Liang Xianya, the third lady of the Liang family, was the girl that Xiao Yunhe fell in love with at first sight.
On the day he fell into the water, it was actually Xiao Yunhe who asked Miss Liang San out. Originally, Xiao Yunhe wanted to express his feelings to Miss Liang San.
If she was willing, he would ask his parents to bring the betrothal gifts to the Liang family to propose marriage.
But when the two were boating on the lake, the bottom of the boat they were on suddenly showed signs of leakage. Before Xiao Yunhe could even ask others for help, the entire boat sank to the bottom of the lake in just a moment.
Xiao Yunhe was not good at swimming. After sinking to the bottom of the lake, he fainted and didn't know what was happening.
After he woke up, Xiao Yunhe asked about Miss Liang San's situation, but the door of the Liang Mansion was closed. He waited outside the mansion for a whole day, but only received a heartless letter from her.
Every word in the letter was cruel. Miss Liang San said that she didn't like him at all and didn't want to be with him. She told him not to be so delusional and not to look for her again in the future...
After receiving the letter, Xiao Yunhe got drunk for three days and three nights, feeling so heartbroken that he could hardly control himself.
Later, Deng Qing came to Xiao's house and found him.
Deng Qing said that it was he who rescued him from the lake that day, and if he died, he would not be able to repay Deng Qing for saving his life.
It was precisely because of these words that Xiao Yunhe slowly cheered up and threw himself into his business wholeheartedly, and never went to the Liang Mansion again...
He never looked for Miss Liang San again.
It was not until today when Xiao Yunhe stepped into the Liang Mansion again that he got his answer.
However, what disappointed him was that Miss Liang San still refused to see him.
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good."
After hearing the whole story, Xiao Changyong, Xiao's father, sighed and said, "Yunhe, things are not the worst right now. Since Yi'er has already given you a reminder, you should know what to do."
"My Xiao family is an imperial merchant family, and we have the support of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. We may have already become a thorn in the eyes of many people. In order not to implicate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we must think carefully before taking every step..."
"My father is old, and now the Xiao family can only rely on you."
"Dad, don't worry, with my son here, I will definitely protect the Xiao family!"
Xiao Yunming, who was standing aside, couldn't help but speak.
Xiao Yunming is the third son of Xiao's father. He does not have much talent in business, but he is good at growing tea trees. All the tea of the Xiao family is grown by Xiao Yunming himself.
Xiao Yunjing stepped forward and patted Xiao's father on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Dad, the Xiao family will be fine."
"Don't worry, second brother. Let me get to the bottom of this matter and make sure that Deng Qing's plan fails!"
As the elder brother of Xiao Yunming and Xiao Yunhe, Xiao Yunjing has a gentle personality and always acts steadily. He is well versed in business and is also the future head of the Xiao family.
Listening to what his eldest and third brothers said, Xiao Yunhe felt so guilty that he almost cried. Having such relatives was a blessing he had earned in his previous life.
Xiao Yunhe couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his eyes, and said with red eyes: "Brother, there is no need to intervene in this matter. I have been to the Prince's Mansion, and His Highness has already said that he will send someone--"
The housekeeper came hurriedly and interrupted Xiao Yunhe's words: "Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's guard Mu Qing wants to see you."
"Guard Mu Qing?"
Father Xiao stood up suddenly, looked outside, and said anxiously, "Please ask Guard Mu Qing to come in!"
Having said that, Father Xiao couldn't wait any longer, so he simply followed the housekeeper's footsteps and hurried out.
"Dad, slow down!"
Xiao Yunjing and Xiao Yunming hurriedly followed.
Xiao Yunhe was still kneeling on the ground, but when he saw that they had all left, he stood up, hunched over, and limped out.
After kneeling for too long, his knees could no longer support him.
……
The four of them hurried all the way to the gate of the Xiao Mansion.
At first glance, I saw Guard Mu Qing standing at the door.
Father Xiao stepped forward and raised his hand, saying, "I wonder why Guard Mu Qing is here at this time? But what does His Highness want?"
Guard Mu Qing is someone close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and has a different status, so the Xiao family should naturally treat him well.
Mu Qing didn't expect that Master Xiao and the two young masters would come out.
Although he was surprised, Mu Qing remained expressionless. "Master Xiao, His Highness did have instructions. Why don't we go into the mansion first and talk about it?"
Father Xiao quickly responded: "Yes, yes, yes."
Xiao Yunjing and Xiao Yunming noticed what Guard Mu Qing was holding.
It seemed to be something wrapped in sackcloth.
Xiao Yunjing and Xiao Yunming glanced at each other quickly, and then looked away in an instant.
Mu Qing noticed that the two men's eyes were on him for a moment, but there was still no expression on his face.
Mu Qing followed the four people from the Xiao family and walked towards the lobby of the mansion.
On the way, he also met Xiao Yunhe who was in a dishevel.
Mu Qing glanced at him and didn't say anything, but he could feel that his aura had become a lot colder.
After they returned to the lobby, the butler left quietly.
After Mu Qing sat down, Father Xiao spoke, "What instructions does Your Highness have?"
Mu Qing: "His Highness asked Mu Qing to bring the account book here. Please have a look at it, Second Young Master Xiao."
"Ledger!?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the Xiao family father and son and their four companions in the hall all looked at Mu Qing in shock.
Xiao Yunhe subconsciously asked: "What account book do you want me to review?"
"The account book of the herbal medicine shop."
Before coming, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had given instructions, so Mu Qing followed His Royal Highness' instructions and told them again: "This is the account book that His Royal Highness asked me to find at Deng Qing's house. It contains evidence of the herbal medicine shop using fake herbs to murder eight people. Every account is recorded in it, and there is also Deng Qing's signature..."
"With these account books, Second Young Master Xiao can put Deng Qing in jail and make him pay with his life."
"This……"
Father Xiao was so surprised that he didn't know what to say for a moment.
The Xiao family's four sons and father had never expected that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would act so quickly.
While the Xiao family was still discussing countermeasures, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already found the evidence and sent someone to hand it over to them.
"Thank you for your help, Your Highness. I'm sorry to trouble Guard Mu Qing."
Xiao Yunjing suppressed his shock and asked quickly, "I wonder if Guard Mu Qing can let us see these account books?"
"can."
Mu Qing handed the sackcloth bag in his hand to Xiao Yunhe: "Please open it yourself, Mr. Xiao."
"it is good."
Xiao Yunhe felt it was a little strange, but didn't think much about it.
When he thought that the evidence inside this book could save the Xiao family, Xiao Yunhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He quickly opened the sack. Before he saw the account book, Xiao Yunhe smelled a foul odor coming from the manure pit.
