474 Listen To Vile People’s Words, Take Care of You!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he beca. Jiang Xiaoran rolled up his sleeves. “This is outrageous!”
Gu Nuo’er looked at Xie Yinxiang.
She lowered her eyes and looked a little sad, but she was used to holding things in and was never one to show any grievance in front of everyone.
The child jumped off the stool and walked to her side, holding her hand.
Gu Nuo’er comforted her. “Elder Sister Yinxiang, don’t be sad. It’s not that Uncle Xie doesn’t believe you, but he was deceived!
“Later, I’ll bring you to the governnt office to see him. You can just explain things clearly in the prison. However, don’t be angry with .
“I didn’t stop the constable uncles from taking Uncle Xie away. I wanted Uncle Xie to know that sothing will really happen if he listens to vile people’s words impulsively!”
Xie Yinxiang’s eyes turned red and she looked at Gu Nuo’er gratefully.
“Thank you, Nuo’er. I know.”
However, she did not expect that her father’s first reaction would still be to believe Xie Liuhua and her mother’s words!
Xie Yinxiang composed herself and pretended that nothing had happened. “Let’s go after we’re done eating.”
An hour later, the four of them took a carriage and arrived outside the dungeon of the nearby governnt office.
The head constable nodded and bowed to Ye Siming. “Who in the capital doesn’t know of Marquis Yongye’s na?”
Ye Siming put away his token.
He held Gu Nuo’er’s small hand and said coldly, “We’re here to visit Xie Xingli. Please do us a favor and lead the way.”
The head constable quickly agreed and brought them to the prison’s entrance, asking the two constables on guard to open the door.
Before they entered, they could see that the ground was wet and muddy.
There was also a strong sll of dampness in the air from being unexposed to light through the years.
Gu Nuo’er blinked curiously. In the next mont, she was carried in Ye Siming’s arms.
He whispered in her ear, “It’s dirty inside. Let carry you.”
Gu Nuo’er nodded obediently.
The head constable walked at the front and didn’t forget to say, “After bringing him back to the governnt office for investigation, we found out that he’s really the Court of Judicial Review’s Lord Xie.
“However, our magistrate said that Lord Xie’s relative, Third Zhang, had just committed a cri, so we have to investigate him strictly. We can’t condone their domineering attitude, so we’ll keep him locked up for now.”
Gu Nuo’er touched Ye Siming’s earlobe.
His entire body trembled, and a faint red mark imdiately appeared on his fair and handso face.
“What are you doing?!” Ye Siming glanced sideways at Gu Nuo’er, his heart racing.
She leaned closer and whispered, “Elder Brother Siming, can you ask the constables how they can let Lord Xie go?”
Ye Siming pursed his lips and was about to speak.
However, Gu Nuo’er felt that it was fun and wanted to touch his earlobe again.
Ye Siming grabbed the child’s mischievous hand and pressed it tightly against his chest.
Gu Nuo’er pouted her pink lips, looking angry that she hadn’t succeeded.
Ye Siming cald himself down. After a mont, he asked in a seemingly indifferent manner, “If I want to bail Xie Xingli out of prison, should I tell the magistrate personally?”
When the head constable heard this, he quickly laughed softly and said, “Of course not. Why is there a need to trouble you to make an extra trip? This lowly one can pass the ssage on your behalf.
“To be honest, we locked Lord Xie up because his relative, Third Zhang, had just offended the emperor. Now that Lord Xie has committed a cri, how would we dare to let him go so easily?
“Wouldn’t that make us look like jackals from the sa tribe as Lord Xie? Don’t you think so? However, if you want to bail them out, we can do that. After all, it’s just such a small matter. This lowly one can just tell the magistrate.”
Ye Siming nodded. “Thank you.”
