Chapter 103 Reporting to the Government
Chen Zhi and Xu Shuhe returned to the city in Lin Jinyi's carriage.

Their own carriage had an injured horse and could not be used at the moment, so they asked the driver to wait with the carriage while they went back to the city to call for help. In addition, they also had to deal with the captured prisoner.

Feng and Li Mingzhu naturally did not recognize the Lin family's carriage, so when the group was returning to the city, they passed them by. They even pretended that the carriage had broken down and waited there.

"What a nest of viles." Lin Jin's eyes were full of disgust.

Xu Shuhe also had a cold face, "They are so cruel, we don't need to save face, just take them to the government to report the case."

Hearing her say this, Lin Jinyi's gaze turned to Chen Zhi, with a look of scrutiny.

"No need to look at me, this matter must be explained." Chen Zhi's voice was gloomy.

Not only did he want an explanation, but with this opportunity to find evidence of the crimes of Feng and Li Mingzhu, he could also bring up the issue of dividing the family property.

It wasn't his fault, and Chen Huaiqian, as a father, couldn't say anything.

After the branch family leaves, he won't have to worry about the Chen family's affairs anymore, and he can devote himself to managing his own business.

As a good friend of Xu Shuhe, Lin Jinyi was naturally worried that Chen Zhi would favor his own family, but now that he saw that Chen Zhi's attitude did not seem fake, he felt relieved.

"With all the evidence, we can definitely find the person behind this. Hiring someone to kill someone is a capital crime according to the law."

"I'm not surprised that Feng hates the two of us and would do such a cruel thing." Xu Shuhe looked thoughtful and said to the two of them, "I think there's something fishy about my second sister-in-law's involvement in this matter."

When she said that, Chen Zhi thought about it and felt that it made sense.

He has known Li Mingzhu for a longer time. This second sister-in-law does have some thoughts, but she is not as ruthless and decisive as Feng. She also likes to distance herself from things. This time, she spoke for Feng and specially invited Xu Shuhe to Qingyuan Temple to pray for blessings. She must know the inside story.

"The second child seems to be very well behaved during this period." Chen Zhi suddenly mentioned.

Xu Shuhe met his eyes, "Last time, they had a quarrel, and the second sister-in-law wanted to divorce. Later, the second brother was scolded by his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Since then, he has been very quiet and has not even left the house."

"How could he be so honest?" Chen Zhi also thought of something.

"I'm afraid he doesn't dare to go out." Xu Shuhe answered, and quickly guessed in his mind, "It's hard to change one's nature. What can scare him so much that he doesn't dare to go out? Could it be that he has a creditor again?"

Chen Zhi took a deep breath and said, "I will send someone to investigate as soon as we get back to the city."

Xu Shuhe nodded and didn't ask any more questions, feeling very annoyed.

Lin Jinyi, who was sitting next to her, felt her emotions and gently held her hand to comfort her.

suburbs.

"What did you say?!"

Feng and Li Mingzhu calculated the time and caught up, only to see the mess on the ground and the coachman and the injured horse standing there.

After listening to the driver's description, Li Mingzhu couldn't help but express her excitement in her voice.

Fortunately, the driver didn't notice anything unusual. He just thought she was surprised that Chen Zhi and Xu Shu were in danger, so he continued.

"I was also scared. Fortunately, Miss Lin arrived in time and the guards around her were all good. Otherwise, the Third Young Master and his wife would have been in danger today. Poor Zhang Ping, who was beside the Third Young Master, was seriously injured."

At this moment, Feng's heart was filled with anxiety and resentment as if poisoned, and she felt extremely uncomfortable, but she couldn't show it. She grabbed Li Mingzhu, who was a little out of control, and asked the driver with anger.

"Where are the Third Young Master and his wife now?"

"We've returned to the city," the driver replied. "The Third Young Master's wife was frightened and could barely walk. The Third Young Master was worried, so he took Miss Lin's carriage and rushed back first. He asked me to wait here and send someone to help."

He didn't mention that Lin Jinyi's guards captured a killer alive and took him away.

Xu Shuhe had explained what to say and what not to say, and the driver knew it. "Where are those robbers?" Feng asked anyway.

The driver immediately said, "Some die, some escape. After all, this is an official road, so we dare not act too recklessly."

Hearing this, Feng felt a little relieved.

He immediately took Li Mingzhu into the car and went back home.

"Mother-in-law, what should we do? The third brother and his wife are fine. God damn, a damn girl from the Lin family popped up. Otherwise, it would be over today!"

"What success is there?" Feng glared at him, "What happened today was an accident. It has nothing to do with you or me."

Li Mingzhu's face paused, and then she became worried, "Xu is very suspicious, I'm afraid he won't treat it as an accident, he will definitely investigate. What if he finds us..."

"Haven't you heard that some of those assassins died or escaped, how could she find any clues? Besides, those people were paid to do this. If they betray us, it would ruin their own rules and reputation. Who would dare to ask them for help in the future?"

Although Feng was also uneasy about Li Mingzhu's panic, she was generally calmer.

"Okay, just remember that our carriage broke down on the way today, so we had no choice but to separate from the third brother and his wife. You and I are also very worried about them being in danger. Now that you are back, follow me to Fuyunju to see the third brother's wife."

"Yes."

Li Mingzhu responded.

At the moment, she had no idea what to do and could only follow Feng's arrangements.

However, when they returned home, they found that Xu Shuhe and Chen Zhi had not returned at all.

Feng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Send people to inquire around as soon as possible.

Someone came back and said that the Third Young Master and his wife had gone to the yamen and had encountered a group of assassins on the outskirts of the city. They suspected that someone had hired them to kill them, and that they had also captured an assassin and was taking him away as a witness.

"It's over, mother-in-law, we are finished, what should we do?"

Upon hearing the news, Li Mingzhu immediately collapsed in her chair, her eyes full of fear.

Feng was not much better, but she still tried to remain calm, "What nonsense! This matter has nothing to do with us. We will not be able to find out anything. Besides, the couple is fine. The government doesn't have so much free time to deal with their affairs. Don't panic first!"

These words really couldn't comfort Li Mingzhu at all now.

But at least Li Mingzhu shut up and stopped talking nonsense.

I still know that the more you talk, the more mistakes you make.

But the situation at the government office was not what Feng had expected.

As the saying goes, money can make the world go round.

There were witnesses to this incident, and there was a definite suspect. Moreover, Chen Zhi generously gave silver bills to the government office. In addition, Chen Zhi had the title of scholar, which made him different from ordinary people.

His case would have been taken more seriously by the government than those of ordinary people.

In addition, Chen Zhi hinted clearly that he would get to the bottom of the matter, no matter who the other party was, even if they were family members, so the government office worked very quickly.

In the afternoon, officials came to the door.

"Please ask your wife, the second young master's wife, and the second young master to go with us to the government office."
