Chapter 494: Portrait
On the side of Qinyiyuan, I also heard that the emperor ordered a thorough investigation of the old case of Qingtan Temple.
Mrs. Wu was very proud, as if she had seen the picture of Yin Pingru in prison, as well as the scene of the Lu Mansion and the Yuyuan being chaotic because of this......
Mrs. Wu couldn't help but want to go to the Yuyuan to show off, but was strongly dissuaded by Lu's mother.
"I'm afraid I'm angry over there, so don't go over there first......"
"I'm still afraid they won't make it?!" Mrs. Wu was arrogant, but she still slowed down.
Now not only Jiang Xuan, but even Lu Qingrong is not polite to her, which inevitably makes Mrs. Wu hesitate slightly.
"If you go over now, I'm afraid that Mrs. Shizi will think that this matter has something to do with us......" Mother Lu continued to stop.
"Humph!" Mrs. Wu sneered, "Even if we don't go over, do you think she won't be able to guess?" ”
No matter how she guesses, there is still no evidence. The slave just thinks that at least on the bright side, we don't want to get into too much trouble with Yuyuan...... Now that An Lebo is gone, the Empress Dowager has been forced to move to Xiyuan again, and it is not easy to ask to see her once......"
"What's the use of seeing it? The Empress Dowager was simply set aside! ”
Mrs. Wu was still stiff-mouthed.
But she understood that Lu's mother was reminding herself that this time was different from the past, they had no available backers, and they could no longer act as they did before.
Finally stopped, Mrs. Wu sat down on the rosewood circle chair closest to the door, and was silent for a long time before she said slowly:
"I understand what you're saying. It is precisely because I have seen the situation in front of me clearly. This time I had to strike first! The matter of Qingtan Temple is still an unsolved case, if we don't take the initiative. Surely there will be people who will bring it up...... It's just that I'm always a little worried in my heart, why don't we wait for the day of the trial of the Criminal Department, let's go too? ”
Mother Lu just breathed a sigh of relief, and when she heard her words, she was hung up again.
"Madame! We've done everything we can. Besides, the witness, both old and young, is in our hands. There is absolutely no way he can talk back. The fire itself was set by him, and naturally there will be no mistakes in the testimony...... Even if you go, you won't be able to help. Instead, he exposed himself for no reason. ”
Mother Lu knew what Mrs. Wu was worried about, but she didn't mention it, and only chose good words to persuade her.
Mrs. Wu is indeed a little more down-to-earth: "I just don't know, when will this matter have an impact on Jiang Xuan...... I can't wait now! ”
The more Mrs. Wu thought about it, the farther she went. Lu's mother is about to run out of words. reluctantly coped: "Fortunately, the prince has not yet taken the title, maybe the emperor is dissatisfied with him." If the second master can fight quickly, win the battle earlier, and rush back to the capital, this title may be ......"
"I'm afraid it's not that easy!" Mrs. Wu was moved by her words, "The emperor sent a decree to Mobei with great fanfare, indicating that he did not have to care about the emperor's eldest grandson, what does this mean." Isn't it obvious! When the emperor's eldest grandson arrived in Mobei, he would definitely not be there to help Ke'er...... This is a victory. I'm afraid it's not as easy as we thought! ”
"As for Jiang Xuan's fact that he has not yet attacked the lord, I can't figure it out, I don't know what the emperor is planning. But it's certainly not what you think! Have you forgotten that on the day the first emperor died, the two people in Yuyuan made a lot of movement! ”
"Overnight, 8,000 towns of Beitie rode into Beijing! Others don't know how those people came about, how can we not know! ”
Mrs. Wu's series of words directly made Lu's mother speechless.
Yes, the prince and his wife played such a vital role in the emperor's succession, how could the emperor be dissatisfied with them!
Mother Lu was speechless, and Mrs. Wu persuaded herself.
"Fortunately, no matter what the emperor's purpose is, as long as Jiang Xuan does not attack the lord, we still have room to turn around! Isn't he in his prime now, let's light a fire in his backyard! As long as Lu's mother is convicted, I don't believe that Yuyuan can be as peaceful as before! ”
Xu was overhit just now, and Mother Lu spoke again, becoming much more direct: "At first, the slave maid also thought that this thing would definitely be done, but the emperor sent Lord Sun to judge ......."
"The slave maid heard that Master Sun also came to the mansion just now, and went to Yuyuan for more than half an hour before leaving."
This time, Mrs. Wu was unimpressed.
"This time, our evidence is conclusive and irrefutable, no matter how Jiang Xuan and that Sun Yiming are in cahoots, it will be difficult to clear Yin Pingru's name!"
Mrs. Wu gritted her teeth, and in the eyes of Mother Lu, she didn't dare to say anything more......
At this time, in Yuyuan, Lu Qingrong had already returned from the Lu Mansion again.
Just because she couldn't wait for tomorrow, she was in a hurry to take the portrait sent by Sun Yiming to Yin Pingru for identification.
"How's that, mother?" Jiang Xuan asked.
Lu Qingrong shook his head: "I don't recognize it." Mother was sure she had never seen this person. ”
Jiang Xuan was silent, but as if he was very satisfied with this answer, the corners of his mouth inadvertently hooked slightly.
Lu Qingrong was in a hurry just now, and finally remembered his doubts at this moment: "Is he trying to frame his mother, does his mother recognize him, what's the matter?" ”
Jiang Xuan smiled and explained: "Maybe I was afraid that this matter would not be planted on my mother's head, so in the testimony of the murderer, I insisted that my mother gave him the task of killing people and destroying his mouth in person......"
Lu Qingrong was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"You mean that he may have actually never actually seen his mother?" Lu Qingrong still felt that something seemed wrong.
Jiang Xuan continued: "This murderer has a lot of cases on his body, so Lord Sun quickly found out where he came from. It is true that his hometown is Jinan, Shandong, but whether it was in Jinan in his early years or in the capital these years, he and his mother have never had any chance to intersect. Therefore, he should not have seen his mother with his own eyes. ”
"So what?" Lu Qingrong was still puzzled, "We have a portrait of him, he should have seen a portrait of his mother......
"How can that be the same!" Jiang Xuan smiled unabated, "His portrait was personally sent by Master Sun, and we all know that there will never be any mistakes." It's different on his side, even if he has seen the portrait of his mother, if he sees the person who is called 'Mrs. Lu' by everyone in the public court, and it doesn't match the portrait, does he dare to deny it? ”
"Why not?"
He will only suspect that he is misremembering, and he will definitely not suddenly retort at the moment of the last moment. It's just that once he gives up testifying, I'm afraid his family will be ruined......"
