Chapter 266: It's Back
Zhao Changqing was also shocked when he heard the news of the fire in the Xishan Courtyard, and the manager of the purchase didn't quite understand what he said, but said, "It seems that the person is not injured, but the other courtyard has burned down." ”
Zhao Changqing was really not at ease, and said to Mrs. Zhao and Ling, "I'd better go over and have a look." On such a cold day, there was a fire at night, and I don't know how my husband got through. ”
Mrs. Zhao said, "Go ahead." If there's anything going on, send the girl back and forth. ”
Zhao Changqing took a car to Su's house.
Mr. Su smiled, "Why did it alarm you?" ”
Zhao Changqing said, "Such a big event, the steward went out to buy and heard about it, how could he not reciprocate." Is it okay sir? ”
"Okay."
Zhao Changqing sat next to Mr. Su and asked, "What about Ah Bai?" ”
"I went to the Yamen of the Imperial Capital Mansion to report the case."
Su Zhang was running and playing in the house under the watchful eye of his nursing mother, Qi Ru said, "Sister doesn't know, the fire in the other courtyard is not a natural disaster, someone deliberately set the fire." ”
Zhao Changqing's heart was slightly cold, and he asked, "Who is so mad?" If you want to talk about the enemy, Mr. has only been in the imperial capital for a few years, where will there be an enemy. It's Ah Bai, has he ever made enemies with others? ”
Su Zhang said, "What my sister can't think of is someone from the Li family." Mother caught a few thieves who set fire to the fire yesterday, and the prime minister had already tried them. ”
Zhao Changqing was taken aback and said, "Even if Uncle Su and the Li family are a little unhappy, they can't reach the point of setting fire to kill people." What's more, if they want to burn it, they should also burn Uncle Su, was Uncle Su also in the other courtyard yesterday? ”
Qi Ru said, "That's not true." Qi Ru couldn't help but think of the fact that during the birthday banquet of Cheng'en Gong, Mrs. Yong'an Hou was extremely out of shape when she saw her mother-in-law.
Murder and arson are not trivial matters, and there is no such thing as doing it without looking at it. There are some words that Qi Ru is not good to ask as a daughter-in-law, but Zhao Changqing has no worries and asks, "Didn't Mr. have a holiday with the Li family?" ”
"We've always been in the border city, I don't even recognize the people of the Li family, where do we have to celebrate the festival." Mr. Su smiled, "Okay, don't be sad, I'm fine." I think the government will find out. ”
Zhao Changqing said, "You must find out." "But if there is another courtyard on the West Mountain, it is not an ordinary family, and it is not a trivial matter that a fire breaks out. Today, I can burn Mr. Su's courtyard, and Ming'er may even burn the old Mei Nunnery of the eldest princess, and I am afraid that it will be burned to the Empress Dowager's school.
In the morning, many good friends heard the letter and came to inquire about the steward, Zhao Changqing accompanied Mr. Su to lunch, and when Su Bai came back, he asked about the report of the imperial capital, and Zhao Changqing said goodbye.
Su Bai is now a royal history, there was a fire in the courtyard at home, and he caught the thief who set the fire, such a case, there is no reason for the Imperial Capital Mansion not to accept it, and it is easy to try it, don't look at a few bold arsonists, the bones are not necessarily hard. A stupid person like Mrs. Li is like a master, and her henchmen are no better. After confessing to Mrs. Li in three or two, Yin of the Imperial Capital Mansion looked at it, alas, this is the mother of Yong'an Hou, but she is a little embarrassed.
Imperial Mansion Yin is in trouble, Su Bai has nothing to do as the imperial history, it is inconvenient to do anything else, it is convenient to file a complaint, not to mention that it is related to his mother's life. When the court meeting, he went directly to the book, and how his mother brought him up from a small age with a lot of hardships, which is called a touching heart. Then how Mrs. Li led people to go up the mountain to burn the courtyard, intending to burn his mother to death, Su Bai is worthy of Zhao Changqing who has been taught by his mother since childhood, and he said, "The minister grew up in the border city with his mother since he was a child, and he has no grudge against the Li family. The minister's mother, including Weichen, and this old lady Li have never seen each other, and they suddenly made such a poisonous move, and the minister was puzzled. What's more, Mrs. Li's intention was not to burn her mother, there are many courtyards on the West Mountain, and the eldest princess's old plum nunnery is also near the minister's courtyard, or Mrs. Li may want to burn the old plum nunnery. What's more, there are not a few courtyards on the west mountain, set a fire today, and set a fire tomorrow. If this case is not tried today, I am afraid that there will be many unjust souls in the fire in the future! ”
New Year's Day, encounter this bad thing. Mu Yu was about to take out the Imperial Capital Mansion Yin to ask, and the Imperial Capital Mansion Yin hurriedly said, "The minister is about to mention the Li woman to the Imperial Capital Mansion for interrogation, and he will definitely give Su Yushi justice." ”
Mu Yu said lightly, "Use more snacks." ”
Since the Empress Dowager Song killed the Shu Palace, Peng Xiang then fell ill, and no one dared to despise the authority of the mother and son. Yin of the Imperial Capital Mansion hurriedly said, "The ministers will do their best and live up to the grace of the saint!" ”
Mu Yu didn't say anything more. After the next dynasty, he sent someone to ask the eldest princess of Lao Mei, as Su Bai said, the place where the fire started was not far from the old Mei Nunnery, if the eldest princess of Lao Mei had a good one, it would be a direct slap in the face of the royal family.
Because Su Bai was in the imperial history of the dynasty and took advantage of the time and place, this matter was passed by the imperial front, regardless of who his old lady Li was, and the imperial capital Yin couldn't take care of it, so he ordered a servant to go to the Li family to get people. Mrs. Li was still very angry and shouted, "Do you know who I am? Do you know who I am? ”
The errand officer was also bad, and smiled, "I know, I know, who doesn't know your old man in the imperial capital, aren't you the mother of the Marquis of Yong'an before he passed over." ”
Mrs. Li put on a full posture and said loudly, "Then you dare to be disrespectful to me!" ”
"It's the mother in front, not the mother now, if we don't dare, we won't come." With a wave of his hand, "Take it away!" ”
The eldest man of the Li family hurriedly stuffed the silver and said good words, "My mother is old, you see, or I will go to the yamen to speak for my mother." The messenger pushed the silver back and sneered, "So, you also have your share in setting fire to Su Yushi's mother in the Xishan Courtyard!" ”
Master Li was dumbfounded.
Fortunately, the errand officer knew that this was Yong'an Hou's biological mother, and he didn't come up with too rough means, because of Mrs. Li's noisy shouting, she directly gagged with a rag and took the person to the imperial capital to make an errand.
The next interrogation is even simpler, Mrs. Li is poisonous, there is a stupid word in front of the key poison, stupid and poisonous, where is the opponent of those old officials in the imperial capital, three times five divided by two, a lot of inside information will be tried, go up, the imperial capital Yin Xindao, my obedient, even involved the death of Yong'an Houfa's wife more than 20 years ago, and Xia Shaoqing's mansion. The imperial capital Yin Guan'er is not big, and he is the fourth product, because the imperial capital is as powerful as a lackey, the imperial capital Yin of the fourth product is simply a gas bag in the imperial capital city. However, those who can mix in the imperial capital are not idle people, and Yin of the imperial capital also knows that the surname of the Marquis of Yong'an is Xia, and he was born in Xia Shaoqing's mansion.
The case has reached this point, it is no longer a question of trial or not, and the imperial capital Mansion Yin simply saw a golden avenue spread out in front of him. Cabinet Peng Xiang has been sick for a while, and now he is the position of the second assistant acting first assistant, although the emperor is small, the queen mother is majestic. Moreover, looking at the appearance of His Majesty, he is young but not a fool.
What does it depend on to become an official, rely on fame! For example, Zheng Boyan has the reputation of an iron face, and no one in the officialdom will let him score three points. For example, if this case can be handled, it is ironclad to go further in the officialdom.
As for offending people...... If he doesn't step on the others, how can he go up! Anyway, the case has been investigated, and after the royal front, if you can't check it to the end, you will have an incompetent evaluation, it is better to be selfless with an iron face, and ask Your Majesty to see your own ability!
After making up his mind, Yin of the Imperial Capital Mansion went back to the backyard to ask his wife to find out the official uniform, calmly changed into it, and went into the palace to ask the emperor for advice. Without him, Xia Gongren is the fourth grade, and the imperial capital Yin is also the fourth grade, if there is no supreme intention, he can't move Xia Gongren.
Mu Yu was studying, so Yin of the imperial capital saw the Empress Dowager Song. When the Empress Dowager Song listened to the situation of the chamberlain in the early dynasty, she heard about the case for a while, and thought that it was just a simple murder and silence, and she didn't want the case to be so complicated. However, this is not an indecisive matter for the Empress Dowager Song, she said, "Qing is the imperial capital Yin, and he is the old man of the first emperor." The safety of the imperial capital, the first emperor trusted you, the emperor trusted you, and the mourning family also trusted you. Just investigate this matter, don't let the wicked get punished, and the wronged should be justified. ”
Yin Zhong, the imperial capital, received the queen mother's edict with great excitement.
Originally, as soon as Mrs. Li was imprisoned, everyone in the imperial capital who was well-informed muttered in private, in fact, everyone has something to understand, there is always a reason to kill, such as Mrs. Li, what kind of grievances does your family have against the Su family. It is nothing more than that Yong'an Hou and Su Shenyi have a slight discord, but when Yong'an Hou returned Su's dowry, the people in the imperial capital feel that they have done it beautifully, and Yong'an Hou can be called above board. Even if your old lady Li is unhappy, it should be unhappy Su Shen Doctor, so decent, what are you going to do to burn Su Tanhua's mother? A widow in a family who has worked hard to train her son to become a talent, where did people get in your way and offend you?
Everyone couldn't figure out the cause and effect in it, but Ji Min, the wife of Wei Ning Anhou, probably understood it in her heart. The Yong'an Hou Mansion and the Ning'an Hou Mansion are both surnamed Li, which originally came out of an old ancestor, and later split the clan. Over the years, it has been quite close, and when something happened to Mrs. Li, Ning Anhou scolded her at home for a long time, and said, "The woman is wrong!" "The Marquis of Yong'an went to Shuzhong to investigate the affairs of the Shu Palace, and it was a great achievement to come back, at this juncture, Mrs. Li went to burn the courtyard of other people's houses, which was simply a slap in the face of the Marquis of Yong'an! Although the two families are only clan relatives in name, if such a thing happens in the clan, Yong'an Hou will have to bear some responsibilities as the patriarch! No amount of credit is enough for this stupid woman to pull her back legs!
Ji Min and Ning Anhou are in harmony and do not hide everything. Ji Min said, "On Chengengong's birthday that day, I saw a person. ”
"Who?" It is worth taking it out from his wife like this, if you want to say that the powerful relatives of the imperial capital, with the status of the Marquis of Ning'an, there are few wives who don't recognize it.
Ji Min said, "Su Tanhua's mother, that Mrs. Su." ”
"What's so strange about that?"
"You don't know, Mrs. Su has rarely gone out, and few people have seen her in the imperial capital. It was the first time I had seen it that day, and at first glance, I felt familiar in a trance, and I didn't think about it for a while. It was Mrs. Yong'an Hou, who dropped the teacup when she saw Mrs. Su, and I remembered it. Who do you guess Mrs. Su looks like? Ji Min looked at her husband, "Mrs. Su's appearance is very similar to the original partner of Yong'an Hou, Mrs. Su who was once burned to death in the Xishan Courtyard." ”
Ning Anhou was slightly shocked and said, "This can't be nonsense. ”
"Where am I going to talk nonsense." Ji Min said, "I'm a few years older than her, and I don't know her very well. When she was a child, she was in the imperial capital, raised under the knees of Mrs. Yong'an Hou, and was very good with Jiayan's mother. Think about it, if it weren't for Mrs. Yong'an Hou recognizing her, how would she have broken the teacup by mistake. You didn't see the appearance of Mrs. Yong'an Hou that day, it really seems to be a ghost. ”
Ning Anhou pursed his thin lips and did not say anything for a long time.
This matter has been pondering in Ji Min's heart for a few days, and she has thought about it very clearly, and said, "I have heard that Su Tanhua's appearance is described as similar to that of Da Su Tanhua, and it is not uncommon to say that her grandson is like her grandfather." Otherwise, where can two people who are not related by blood be so similar. ”
This is no small matter. Ning Anhou had already thought that if Mrs. Su was really the Mrs. Su of the year, Su Bai would be the first to be the first to be the first to change hands in the future of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
Of course, that's not all. Ning Anhou asked, "Since Mrs. Su didn't come out much in the past, why did she go to the Cheng'en Mansion that day?" ”
Ji Min said, "How can I know this." ”
As soon as Mrs. Su went to the Cheng'en Mansion, Mrs. Yong'an Hou saw a ghost alive...... As a result, within a few days, a fire broke out in the Nishiyama Annex. Ning Anhou sighed deeply, this matter is difficult.
Ning Anhou was still very predictable, and when Xia Gongren was taken to the Imperial Capital Mansion to inquire about the case, Doctor Su went to the Imperial Capital Mansion to file a complaint, saying that his sister had died unjustly, and asked for a retrial of the fire case in the Xishan Courtyard that year. The whole imperial capital was blown up by this gossip, and the meeting was, "Eh, the Su family's case...... Mrs. Su's death is unjust......"
In fact, there is no need for the retrial of the imperial capital Mansion Yin, everyone has already made up the general plot in their brains, and their brains are very correct. In these years, people can't do anything for the sake of wealth and power. Burning the original match, the Xia family can marry into the Yong'an Hou Mansion as a stepfamily, this matter has to say that there is no head and tail of the Xia family, and the people of the imperial capital feel that their IQ has been insulted.
A case will span 30 years, and it involves a Hou Mansion, a Shaoqing Mansion, a dead soul, and the succession of the title of Marquis Mansion back then...... In short, the ups and downs of the events and the twists and turns of the plot ensure that the eyeballs of gossip are shocked. Moreover, the latest gossip is out again, I heard that now Su Tanhua's mother is Mrs. Su who was burned to death back then, Mrs. Su is blessed with a great life, she was not burned to death, and escaped...... As for Su Tanhua, I heard that when the fire broke out in the courtyard that year, Mrs. Su was pregnant, oh my God, what kind of life is this!
As for Su Bai's age, everyone unanimously ignored it.
Su Bai also listened to these boring things, and what made him even more depressed was that his colleagues in the Yushitai looked at him strangely, and Su Bai had to explain, "No, I'm twenty-four this year." The fire in the West Hill Courtyard was 30 years ago. ”
Only then did the imperial historians say, "This is also true." ”
Su Bai: What's going on with your regretful tone!
Su Bai personally refuted the rumors for himself, because what he said was reasonable, and some reasonable people also felt that things would not be so coincidental. However, the first person who questioned Su Bai's explanation was none other than the in-laws of the Yong'an Hou Mansion, Mrs. Lu Anhou. Mrs. Lu Anhou was also very upset because of this case, without him, the youngest son married the daughter of Yong'an Hou. If this case comes true, the Yong'an Hou Mansion will be the first to have no face, as the in-law home of the Yong'an Hou Mansion, what is the interest of the Lu'an Hou Mansion.
When Mrs. Lu Anhou heard outsiders say this, she said to her husband in private, "Do you remember that Dr. Su Shen saw our brother Zhuang last time, saying that when he met a child, he was also congenitally deficient, and he took three years to rectify it...... You say, could it be that Su Tanhua is ...... It is not uncommon for children to get sick when they are young, and it is not uncommon to look younger than their peers. What's more, Su Tanhua's appearance, maybe it will be like this in seven or eight years. "There is a kind of person who is born to age slowly.
Lu Anhou reprimanded, "Shut up." Isn't it better, Yong'an Hou has been gone for half a year, and it is estimated that he will be back soon. Ruosu Tanhua is really ...... What will I do with the title of the Marquis of Yong'an in the future. is now the fourth daughter-in-law, the original daughter-in-law, shouldn't she become a concubine. ”
Mrs. Lu Anhou beat her chest lightly, sighed and sighed, "I don't know how it has been so bad in the past two years, the fourth child has just raised a son-in-law, and something like this happened to the Yue family." ”
Lu Anhou comforted his wife a few words and said, "Where people live, there is smooth sailing, don't worry." Yong'an Hou is coming back. He also went to inquire, but now the imperial capital Yin and Wang Ba are like eating scales, and they are determined to handle this case, and they have passed through the imperial front, so it is not easy to interfere with leisure.
In the midst of this gossip controversy, the Marquis of Yong'an and the Marquis of Zhongxiang returned from Shu.
