Chapter 322

Inside Du Heng Courtyard, underground where no one could see, countless thin roots were spreading wildly, silently piercing into the soles of everyone's feet.

After Xiangxiang's sneak attack, she quickly found Xie Yun's location and hid in the flowers so that Xie Ying could watch the show.

Xie Yun's face was tense, and he looked at Lu Xuan with a complicated expression: "What do you mean, Lord Lu?"

Xie Yi stood behind him, also on guard.

Lu Xuan looked at the two of them expressionlessly: "Your Majesty has specially ordered me to thoroughly investigate the matter of the Gu worm. Anyone who dares to interfere must be arrested and interrogated!

Are Scholar Xie and your son planning to disobey the imperial order and prevent me from investigating the case?"

The father and son's faces turned pale immediately: How could they have such courage?

Xie Yun quickly explained: "Lord Lu misunderstood. I didn't mean to stop Lord Lu from investigating the case. It's just that Lord Lu suddenly broke into my home. As the head of the family, I have to ask why."

Xie Yi asked, "Master Lu suddenly brought so many Black Qilin Guards to the Xie Mansion. Could it be that he found a poisonous insect in the box?

But it has been many days since I handed the box to my eldest brother. The box has been in his hands, so it is not certain that it has been secretly opened by someone.

Since Lord Lu is conducting a thorough investigation, shouldn't he first ask my eldest brother and the servants who serve him?

I heard that when my eldest brother returned home, he only brought one maid with him. Later, he felt that there were not enough people, so he bought a lot of servants from outside.

Those people might not be spies deliberately planted by someone with ulterior motives, who took the opportunity to lurk around the eldest brother and secretly stir up trouble.

Lord Lu, why don't you check them out first?"

He spoke sincerely, but Lu Xuan's eyes were cold and his attitude was not polite. "Thank you, Third Young Master, for your kindness. However, I have my own rules for investigating this case! If you two continue to obstruct me, I will be forced to doubt your intentions."

These words were like two slaps in Xie Yi's face.

Xie Yi felt his face burning, and what made him even more angry was that the Black Kirin Guards behind Lu Xuan were looking at him with mocking eyes!

It's really abominable!

Xie Yi was angry, but he didn't dare to refute a word. He even lowered his eyes, fearing that Lu Xuan would see the dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Xie Yun pulled him aside and made way for Lu Xuan. He simply asked, "How does Lord Lu want to investigate?"

Lu Xuan looked at him with a half-smile: "Since the box was given by your wife, you should naturally investigate your wife. But what your son said just now also makes sense. With so many servants in the mansion, there is no guarantee that there are no people with evil intentions.

I also ask Scholar Xie to personally take me to your wife's courtyard. After a thorough investigation, I will naturally be able to know whether your wife is innocent."

At the end of his speech, he suddenly turned his gaze to Xie Yi, "And Third Young Master Xie, since you have also come into contact with that box, I hope you will cooperate with the Black Unicorn Guards in the investigation."

Xie Yi clenched his fists tightly and said with difficulty, "Since it is an order from His Majesty himself, I will naturally cooperate with you to the fullest."

Lu Xuan glanced at him mockingly and strode in.

Xie Yun was panicked, but he had to bite the bullet and lead the way for him.

After all, he is the head of the family. If he runs away at this time, how can he save face if the news gets out?

Moreover, if he were present, he could stop Lu Xuan from doing anything wrong and protect Chen Fang as much as possible.

So the group hurried to Du Hengyuan.

As soon as he reached the door, Lu Xuan gave the order in a deep voice: "Surround it, guard all the doors, and don't let anyone out!"

When the Black Qilin Guards behind him heard this, they immediately blocked the front and back doors like vicious dogs out of a cage.

Xie Yun and Xie Yi saw this and were immediately furious!

But Lu Xuan even looked towards them, then raised his right hand and said, "Please come in, both of you."

The father and son had no choice but to enter Du Hengyuan with a stern face.

Lu Xuan then filed in with his men and gave the order directly behind the two men: "Secure all the servants here and interrogate them separately!"

The Black Kirin Guards immediately swarmed out, their right hands still on the hilts of their swords, looking ferocious and ready to draw their swords and chop people at any time.
