Chapter 826: Tricked by a Child

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shao Zhongxi’s expression turned ugly when he realized that he had been played by Wei Zizhan, a child who was not even eight years old.

Everything slowly started to click. Wei Zizhan didn’t say that the jade pendant was on Xue Yan’s body at the start, only saying it after a blood test. It turned out that he was picking things that were beneficial to him!

However, Ji Yi, the guard, clearly said that he left a child at the entrance of the Wei familys house and was carried in. Why wasn’t Wei Zizhan that child? Did that mean that his nephew was thrown out after being carried in?

Who was responsible for that?

If this person was not found, even if his real nephew was found, he would never be recognized by the royal family.

The head of the Wei familv would not do such a thing. It must have been done by the Wei family’s servants.

The problem was that everyone from that family had been massacred. Other than Wei Zizhan, the rest of the Wei family and their servants all died…

He had to go to the county government to check the household register of the Wei family in Xinyuan County. He wanted to check if there were servants who did not follow him to Changyu, or if there were other people in the Wei family who did not go to Changyu. All of this would definitely be recorded in the register.

With that thought, Shao Zhongxi hurried to the county office.

Qi Yin silently followed suit.

Shao Zhongxi dismounted and strode into the county office.

“Who are you? How dare you-” The officer wanted to stop Shao Zhongxi, who was striding into the county office with cold strides.

However, before they could finish speaking, Qi Yin had already taken out a token. “How dare you act like this!”

The two officers knelt down with a thud after seeing the token.

Shao Zhongxi didn’t stop walking. Instead, he said coldly, “Lead the way, 1 want to see some household registers.”

“Yes, right this way.” An officer hurriedly bowed and led Shao Zhongxi to the room where the household register was kept.

The registrar was currently recording something inside. He originally wanted to shout at them for interrupting, but when he heard that it was Zhongxi, he knelt down and dared not to look up.

Naturally, some government runners had the foresight to report to the refined but extremely fearless County Magistrate Fang Yiming.

Fang Yiming had just finished a case and was taking a rest at this time. When he heard that Prince Anjun was here, he went straight to the room where the household register was kept.

He immediately remembered that a few days ago, his classmate and good friend Xue Xue Yan had also gone to look at the household register. Could there be some connection between the two?

With a head full of questions, Fang Yiming hurried over. He was surprised that Zongxi and the woman behind him were dressed in red. The two of them looked like a couple, but they were not acting like one.

“I am the County Magistrate, Fang Yiming. May I know the reason for your sudden appearance?”Fang Yiming cupped his hands and bowed politely.

Shao Zhongxi didn’t say anything and continued to flip through the book coldly.

Qiye also helped to search.

Soon, Fang Yiming saw Shao Zhongxi find the household register of the Wei family. He held it in his hand and began to flip through it anxiously.

As expected… Fang Yimings heart trembled and he felt uneasy, but he tried his best not to show it.

Shao Zhongxi noticed that the Wei family had dismissed two servants five years ago. Moreover, these two servants had grown up in the Wei family for a long time.

This meant that these two people probably knew who had dumped his nephew.

Shao Zhongxi quickly followed the records in the Wei family’s household register and went to the large shelf where the household register of Pingan Town’s Zhu family village was placed.

Fang Yiming watched as Shao Zhongxi took out the booklet with Zhu Laicai as the owner and Zhu Xiuhua as the wife. Xue Yan was also looking for this book at that time…

Shao Zhongxi saw that there was no red cross at the back of the booklet, and there was no mention of the circumstances of their deaths. This meant that the couple was still in Zhu Village, so he closed the booklet calmly..
