The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion
Chapter 429: Something’s Happened to the Tang Brothers
Chapter 429
Little White's business was arranged, and the couple planned to let Little White rest in the space for a day before leaving.
Moreover, they also discovered that although Little White and Rice Ball were two species, the two little ones had unknowingly established a deep friendship in the space.
When they were together, although they often seemed to fight with each other and neither yielded to the other, after a long time if they didn't see each other they would miss each other.
Just like now, Mo Jiuye had just taken off the box tied to Little White's leg, and the little guy fluttered his wings and ran to play with Rice Ball.
Little White landed on top of Rice Ball's head, and would even peck at its furry cat head from time to time.
Rice Ball would let out a few meows, and then reach out to pat it.
Little White flew away to escape, and Rice Ball strode with its little short legs to chase it. The scene of the two little ones chasing each other, looked extremely harmonious in the eyes of the couple.
It was still early now, and Mo Jiuye planned to continue going to the city to look for Tang Mingrui.
He was in a hurry to find Tang Mingrui, not entirely because of the jewelry business, but because the watermelons at home had gradually ripened, and it was time for harvesting.
In the past few days, Tang Mingrui's muskmelon business had done very well, earning tens of thousands of taels of silver for both himself and the Mo Family.
He should know that these days were the season when the Mo Family’s watermelons were ripe. With Tang Mingrui’s temperament, he would have brought people to transport the goods early.
Mo Jiuye waited for two days without seeing any movement from Tang Mingrui at all.
If it were in the past, with this kind of money-making business, even if Tang Mingrui himself was too busy to get away, he would still send someone to transport the goods.
As a result, this time was unusually abnormal. Not only did he not come in person, but his men did not come either.
Out of concern for his friend, Mo Jiuye also felt it necessary to go there and take a look.
He had just entered Yun City when he saw Eighth Brother leading a group of people, including officials, and a middle-aged man tied up. The group walked quickly towards an alley.
Eighth Brother was the catcher of the yamen. It was normal for him to handle cases with people. It was just that the middle-aged man being escorted by the officials looked a little familiar to Mo Jiuye.
He thought about it carefully and instantly remembered who this person was - one of the subordinates of that Second Young Master hired by Boss Jin last time.
It was normal for a group of small gangsters to commit crimes, but Mo Jiuye had just seen that Eighth Brother's expression was not as indifferent as usual. He instinctively felt that this matter was more or less related to his Mo Family, or involved someone related to the Mo Family.
Thinking of this, Mo Jiuye strode to catch up.
At this time, an official was forcibly smashing the door of a commoner's house.
"Official handling a case, open the door quickly..."
Mo Jiuye walked over, "Eighth Brother, what happened?"
Mo Chuhan frowned and whispered, "Brother Tang is in trouble."
Hearing Eighth Brother say this, Mo Jiuye suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Did someone die?"
Eighth Brother nodded, "Yeah, Boss Jin was killed this morning."
Although Eighth Brother didn't explain much, Mo Jiuye could grasp the general idea from it.
Boss Jin was dead, Brother Tang was in trouble, and the officials took the gangster to catch someone - it was nothing more than Tang Mingrui having a grudge against Boss Jin for coveting his muskmelon business, so he hired someone to kill him.
It had to be said that Mo Jiuye had completely analyzed the superficial meaning.
However, no matter what, he absolutely did not believe that Tang Mingrui would do such a thing.
With that guy's shrewdness, it was impossible for him to do something so easily caught. There must be someone framing him.
Seeing that Eighth Brother was handling the case here, it was not good for him to inquire in detail.
At this moment, with a bang, the courtyard door was forcibly pushed open by several officials, who immediately rushed in with sabers in their hands.
Mo Chuhan handed the gangster to a subordinate to watch, and greeted Mo Jiuye.
"Ninth brother, come with me."
The two brothers had martial arts skills and quickly walked to the front of the yard.
Almost at the same time, the two leapt up onto the west wall.
Immediately after, a scream was heard: "Ouch!"
A burly sturdy man fell heavily from the top of the wall to the ground.
Mo Chuhan shouted at the officials: "Come on, tie him up for me."
Soon, several officials came over with ropes and tied the man up neatly.
With the wanted man captured, Mo Chuhan would certainly take him back to the yamen.
On the way, Mo Jiuye took the opportunity to ask, "Eighth Brother, what exactly happened to Brother Tang?"
Although he had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart, he still had to get confirmation from Eighth Brother.
"When I first arrived at the yamen this morning, Magistrate Meng gave me an official document sent from the prefect. It ordered us to immediately arrest Tang Mingrui of Yun City.
When I heard it was Brother Tang, I specifically took a close look at the official document. It stated that last night before the hour of zi, Boss Jin was murdered in the street.
The perpetrator was a subordinate of the provincial hoodlum Second Young Master.
That guy was unlucky. After committing the murder, he was caught on the spot by patrolling officials passing by. After overnight interrogation, he confessed that he was hired by Tang Mingrui to kill Boss Jin."
Mo Chuhan pointed to the middle-aged gangster escorted by the officials and said, "This is the guy. The prefect sent him to our Yun City together, meaning that since Brother Tang is from Yun City, Magistrate Meng should handle this case.
The prefect pushing the case outward this time is also good for Brother Tang. Lord Meng is upright and honest. He will surely find the real murderer and give him justice."
"Eighth Brother means that Brother Tang is now in the county yamen?"
"Yes, when Magistrate Meng received the official document, he sent someone to invite Brother Tang to the yamen."
Mo Jiuye knew that even though Eighth Brother said Meng Huaining sent someone to invite Tang Mingrui to the yamen, he probably would not let him leave before the case was closed.
Seeing Eighth Brother's appearance, he did not seem to have figured out the specific situation either, so Mo Jiuye could not ask anything useful out of him.
He followed Eighth Brother to the county yamen. Meng Huaining was in the study, but Tang Mingrui was nowhere to be seen.
Mo Jiuye entered the study and asked, "Brother Meng, what exactly is going on with Brother Tang?"
Meng Huaining did not treat Mo Jiuye as an outsider. He casually picked up an official document from the desk and handed it to him.
"Someone accused Tang Mingrui of hiring a killer. Look at the specifics yourself."
Mo Jiuye took the official document and read it.
The beginning was consistent with what Eighth Brother said, that Boss Jin was killed on the street last night, and the murderer was caught red-handed by patrolling officials passing by.
At the same time, the murderer also insisted that it was Tang Mingrui who paid him to do it, because Boss Jin had coveted his muskmelon business, so Tang Mingrui held a grudge and hired someone to kill him.
Mo Jiuye skimmed through it quickly, then put the official document back on the table.
"Brother Tang would never do such a thing."
His tone was very certain.
