Yin Huo took a sip of tea and said, "The Prince of Hejian didn't do anything. It's just that one of his estate managers and one from the Zheng family fought over water, resulting in the death of seven people. Coincidentally, all seven were from the Zheng family's side, among which five were tenants and two were intermediaries following the Chief to mediate."
Manbao: "...It's been raining for three days now, surely there's no shortage of water in the fields."
Yin Huo: "This happened four days ago. County Magistrate Guo had actually concluded the trial, but the Zheng family's estate manager was dissatisfied and brought people to fight with the estate manager from the Prince of Hejian's family again today. The outcome was that the Zheng family's Second Young Master, who was preparing to take the imperial examination this year, wanted to check on the estate and tenants because of the incident four days ago..."
Bai Shan and Manbao were startled, "Did he die?"
