Chapter 221 Lord Chensu confessed

"Lord Chensu. "When I walked into the prison, I never thought that the third meeting between me and him would be here.www.biquge.info

He, no, should say it's her. She sat in her cell, leaning against the wall, and when she heard the voice, she turned her head.

"Why are you doing that?" I can't understand the reasons for her confession.

"Madame Xiao," she said to me solemnly, "all this is the work of the criminal, and I ask Madame Xiao's forgiveness and don't pursue it any further." ”

It seems that she intends to bear all the charges on her own, but unfortunately now that Shouwang and Zhuya have not returned, the evidence at hand is not enough to prove who she wants to help to take the blame. "Lord Chensu, did you decide to surrender because you listened to my words that day?"

She hesitated, but replied, "Yes." ”

"You should have understood that I would have hinted at you what I wanted you to do with those words." Taking the blame for others is by no means the fate I want to see.

Chen Su was silent.

"Lord Chensu ...... "I still want to persuade her to change her mind.

"Mrs. Xiao, now that I have resigned from my official position to Your Majesty, I am no longer a minister." She reminded. "I didn't have a father since I was a child, since I was born in my mother's mother's family, I should take my mother's mother's family as my clan, and Mrs. Xiao can call me Yao Su."

Yao is his grandfather, the father of his mother, Mrs. Xiangmi.

"Okay, Yao Su." I accepted his request, "I want to ask you why you are pretending to be a man and becoming a courtier. ”

"May I ask what position Mrs. Xiao has to judge Yao Su?" At this point, I am impressed by her composure. "If you accept the queen's appointment to investigate the murder case in Chaoge City, you have no right to judge me. Before I resigned, I was still an important minister in the court, and even if I am guilty now, it should not be you who will be tried. ”

"What if, the queen begged Your Majesty, let me merge the two cases to investigate." I took out the token from my waist that Daji had just given me. "Before I came to see you, I just got word from my family that something happened to you. I was in a hurry, but on the way I met someone sent by the queen and was taken into the palace. The queen asked Her Majesty for this token, hoping that I would thoroughly investigate the tragic death of the girl in the city, so I will submit your case to me for trial. ”

She chuckled twice, "Okay." Born a woman, I only admire two women in my life, one is the current queen, who can influence His Majesty and mess with his dynasty. The other is you, Madame Shaw. ”

"Really? I am not happy to have your admiration. If you are a wise man, it is a great honor for you to have your admiration. But Yao Su, you are not smart enough, or you are simply stupid. "I feel bad to be admired by someone who is willing to take the blame for others.

And she had already thought of it, and didn't mind what I thought or said.

"Why are you pretending to be a man?" I repeated my question.

She was already looking somewhere else, but when I repeated the question a second time, she froze for a moment, then leaned against the wall, one leg that had been straight flexed, her foot on the ground, and she lowered her head and shook for a moment. "Because I can't live as a woman."

Her answer stunned me.

Then, I agreed with her statement that it is true that in this world, it is too difficult for women to do something.

"You know where I came from." "My mother gave birth when she was fifteen years old, and she was still married, and she said she liked my father very much, but she refused to tell anyone who my father was," she said. I grew up in front of my grandfather, and I was bullied since I was a child, because I didn't have a father, and even the slaves in the family dared to yell at me. But my mother never felt like that, she thought she was young, beautiful, and had a good voice, and she thought that with her grandfather's strength, everyone envied her and was jealous of her. She thinks that everyone should chase her and hold her. Later, my mother got married, married to the current Lord Su Yin, who was much younger than her, and when she got married, Lord Su Yin was only fourteen. Later, with the help of my grandfather's power, I sat down step by step to my current position, and I was very grateful to my mother and grandfather at that time, and I think it was for this reason that he accepted me and took me from my grandfather's house. ”

She was happy when she knew she was about to have a father who she had always longed for, and thought it was the beginning of a new life.

"Huh." She laughed, even if she lowered her head, even if she could only hear her weak tone, she could feel the disgust in her heart when she remembered those things. "I never thought that leaving my grandfather's house would be even worse. I then pretended to be a man, because I was an illegitimate child, so my name was not recorded in any genealogy, and no one knew that I was not a man. Because they never cared if I was male or female, but that's fine. Pretending to be a man, at least I can do what I want, I try to recommend myself to other adults, starting with a small official position, and then, finally, I became a minister in front of His Majesty. But at this time, there is no way to quit, otherwise it will be a felony, not only me, but also my mother and my grandfather will be implicated, and I can only continue to pretend. Then they got married and married He Jiang as their wife. ”

When we first met, I also asked her if she was the only Mrs. Hejiang. Because I was thinking at the time, He Jiang was only in his teens, but Lord Chensu was nearly thirty years old. It's normal to get married in your teens, but now that you're nearly thirty years old, you are in a high position like Lord Chensu, at least your wife should have a room.

"He Jiang, she is a good woman." Speaking of He Jiang, her tone softened, "But I can't help her, I can't tell her my identity, so in the two years since I got married, He Jiang has always thought that it was her own reason, because she couldn't make me move, so I kept rejecting her and kept sleeping in the study." ”

"How did you kill her?" Since she herself admitted that she was the murderer of these murders, seeing that she was missing He Jiang, I asked mercilessly.

She froze, depressed, and I could see her fingers flexing.

She ...... She's ......" She was restrained, and there was a subtle almost negligible weight in her voice, but she knew she had to make the lie round. "She's because ...... I clearly said that I didn't want to have too much contact with Lord Su Yin and my mother. But she didn't listen, she, she wanted to do what filial piety, and she repeatedly interacted with people in the mansion on her own initiative. It was my mother's birthday, and I knew it, but I didn't want to go back. After finally finishing lunch in her own mansion, she ran to the cooking room to work, and later said that she was going to serve food to my mother...... At that time, I was already very angry at the time, and I was angry and told her to go, and she really went. But after waiting for a long time, it was getting dark and it was going to rain, and she didn't come back. I asked someone to look for her, but she said that because it was going to rain, Master Su Yin left her to spend the night in the mansion. I was, really, really, angry and I ......"

"How did you kill her, I want to know the process, how did you get into Lord Yin's mansion after dark, how did you call He Jiang to the cooking room, how did you kill her, what murder weapon did you use, and where did you hurt her." Question after question, clearly after feeling her current confusion, she still asked.

And she couldn't answer for a long time.

"Lord Suyin, what the hell have you done?" I paused for a moment before lowering my voice and asking.

Her body stiffened, frightened. But he was still holding on, "No, no...... No. ”

"On the day He Jiang died, I happened to see it in Lord Su Yin's mansion, and you were with Lord Su Yin and Zhao Qin. When Zhao Qin looked at Lord Su Yin, he was angry and angry, suppressing a wave of madness; You don't bother to look at him, and your eyes are always deliberately avoiding contact with him. And when Lord Su Yin looked at Zhao Qin, he didn't stay too long, but when he looked at you, there was a kind of guilt and caution in his eyes, he wanted to talk in front of you, he wanted to say something to you several times, he must have wanted to say something to you. "But apart from feeling a different atmosphere that day, I didn't follow this clue, because I didn't expect that there would be so much harm behind this guilt." What have you done? ”

She began to shed tears and began to scratch her hair.

"He was, ** you, right." I couldn't bear to give the answer, but I still ...... I know that I have always been cruel, and most of the truth of every case revealed has a sad and desperate past behind it. "You pretended to be a man after that, because shame made you hate being a woman. You refuse to accept the fact that you are a woman, you cover up the truth, you disguise yourself as a man, hide in a man's shell to disguise your sense of security. What you didn't expect was that your mother, Mrs. Xiangmi, found out about this incident, and she found out what her husband had done to you, and this incident also hit her self-esteem and left her devastated. She has always been proud, and in your words, she thinks that everything should revolve around her, and even if there is such a stain after giving birth to you, she can still be very confident and proud. But her husband did such harm to her daughter, and she thought it was your betrayal of her, and she ignored you as a victim. Her vanity magnifies her own grievances, and she can no longer tolerate what you do as if nothing had happened. She wanted to make a big deal about it, and wanted others to know what kind of grievances she had suffered, but she ignored one point, that is, the face of Lord Su Yin, your official position, and the honor of her mother's family. Once the sins committed against you by Lord Suyin are exposed, then you, who are already serving as officials in the court, will be investigated and punished, and your grandfather will be severely damaged. ”

Lord Su Yin pleaded guilty to Mrs. Xiangmi's mother's family, but after weighing all the interests, they chose to sacrifice Mrs. Xiangmi.

Not to poison her. The way to poison a person is to poison a dumb person.

From the very beginning, Mrs. Xiang Mi said that they were just to shut her up and stop wantonly publicizing the scandal of the family, they ruined her voice, but there was an accident, she did not completely lose her voice, but only ruined her vocal cords. As a last resort, he locked her in the deepest part of Lord Yin's mansion.

Now she chooses to take it alone.

"I will ask the queen to intercede, and you are not the one who should be punished." I sighed and straightened up. "But I will continue to investigate the case, and those who deserve to be punished must be punished. There may be dignity and humility in the face of fate, but in the face of fairness, human life is equal. You, your mother, and the person you want to cover for all need to understand a truth. The harm you have suffered is not an excuse for hurting others. ”
