It was only not long after that news came that the disaster relief money was not sunk when crossing the Yellow River, and all the silver was scattered on the river, and because the Yellow River was rushing down to the bottom to search for silver taels, the tens of thousands of taels of disaster relief silver were silenced from the account books of the household department.

The more Su Cimo looked at it, the more angry he felt, at that time, his father was just a small household official, only responsible for keeping account books, and for some reason he offended the person behind it, so he had to be punished and became the final culprit of the disaster relief money.

The more Su Cimo thought about it, the more angry she became, and she almost crushed the piece of paper, but Chen Feng couldn't stand it, so she stepped forward and gently pushed Su Cimo, and she woke up from the nightmare, and immediately let go of the letter.

Su Cimo finally got useful news and felt that this method was effective. So in the next two days, Su Cimo went to Xinghua Building twice, and each time he exchanged some useful information from the Xinghua Building.

Now that Su Cimo has enough evidence in her hands, she wants to go into the palace to find some people as witnesses, and then as the people who will testify in court.

Soon, the day came to the last day when the emperor confessed her to prove Su Qingfeng's innocence, Su Cimo packed up early, put on a clean official uniform, and then got into the carriage and went to the court.

In the early days, the emperor also remembered that this day was the deadline, so as soon as he went to the court, he asked Su Cimo what the results of the investigation were.

Su Cimo immediately came out of the ranks, and bowed deeply to the emperor and said, "Back to Your Majesty!" Wechen has found enough evidence to prove that my father, Su Qingfeng, is innocent. ”

When the emperor heard this, he was immediately a little surprised, but it was not obvious, but it seemed that his eyes widened a little.

"Oh!? Indeed!? Then you can tell me and you all about it here. The emperor said with a kind smile.

Su Cimo nodded, and then said: "Your Majesty, minister, dare to ask, how can this case of disaster relief silver be in the hands of a household minister!?" Excuse me, do all of you know!? ”

Su Cimo had a serious look on his face, his eyes swept over the ministers standing in the hall, and in an instant, several old ministers looked at Su Cimo with angry eyes, and then said, "How can you not know!?" Back then, it wasn't your father who deliberately wanted to contact the thieves and communicated the robbers in the mountains about the disaster relief silver issued by the imperial court, and then deliberately jumped out and robbed a part of the disaster relief silver when the convoy carrying the disaster relief silver passed by the Shili Pavilion, how did he have that crime again!? ”

The old minister looked ruddy and angry, Su Cimo was helpless, and then said, "So, how did you find out that this thing was indeed done by my father!?" ”

Tuoba Heng's eyes were full of regret, and he looked at Su Cimo with seven points of stupidity, and his heart suddenly began to jump suddenly, feeling that every word she said seemed to affect Tuoba Heng's heart, which made Tuoba Heng a little uncomfortable. Tuoba Heng also didn't know what was wrong with him suddenly, so he immediately reached out and covered his left chest, wanting to see if he was sick.

He just couldn't help but feel sorry for Su Cimo in his heart just now, but he didn't expect his heartbeat to become so fast.

"How can you be sure!? If you don't find the disaster relief money in your Su Mansion, or dozens of boxes of huge amounts, how can your father admit that this matter is indeed his doing!? The old minister continued.

This matter is already well known in the court, so whether the old minister says it or not, the old ministers in the court all know what is behind it with a tacit look, and in the end, even the Zongren Mansion confirmed that it was indeed Su Qingfeng who did it.

As soon as Su Cimo heard the old minister's words, a not-so-sunny smile appeared on her lips, and then her clear and beautiful eyes brought out three points of yin and seven points of viciousness, and she looked at the old minister bluntly and said: "The reason why you are so sure is because you are all blinded by one person!" And that person is Liu Qing, who is responsible for the joint distribution of disaster relief funds with the Ministry of Households, Lord Liu! ”

"You're talking nonsense!? It's just a lie! I, Liu Qing, as the Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, have worked diligently for the imperial court and abided by my duties! How could you possibly do what you say you did! Su Cimo! You're talking nonsense! Liu Qing was not happy when he heard that Su Cimo had identified him, even if he jumped up with a displeased face and wanted to go over to find Su Cimo.

As soon as these words came out, all the old ministers in the court suddenly let out a lot of sighs, as if everyone couldn't believe it, and then they all looked at each other and said it at the bottom, and suddenly the emperor's face was cold, and he immediately shouted quietly.

Suddenly, the hall returned to its previous quietness, and then the emperor continued to ask Su Cimo: "Why did you directly point this finger at Lord Liu Qing!?" Although he is the person in charge of distributing the disaster relief money, he has been in the court for decades, and the loss of silver is very rare, but it is only after your father's place, and all the disaster relief money is gone. How do you explain this!? ”

Liu Qing wanted to explain, but was stopped by the person sent by the emperor to his side, who stayed by Liu Qing's side for fear that he would be too excited and would make a move on Su Cimo in court. Liu Qing saw that the emperor was ruthless and wanted Su Cimo to try this case clearly, and there was no way to do it immediately, and he couldn't resist too much in court, for fear that it would have a bad impact.

Su Cimo didn't look at Lord Liu, who was looking at her viciously over there, and his eyes kept looking at the emperor, and the emperor also spoke to question Su Cimo, obviously still didn't believe what the father and son of the Su family said, so Su Cimo continued: "Your Majesty, since Su Cimo dares to identify that the person who murdered my father is Liu Qing, then I must have full evidence in my hand." ”

Su Cimo took out a booklet from her cuffs, and then she took the booklet in her hand and raised it, and soon, the personal eunuch next to the emperor hurriedly came over and took the booklet and presented it to the emperor in the main hall.

"Your Majesty, this is a booklet at the gate of the palace that records the entry and exit of courtiers, you look at the September 17 of this booklet, do you find that this booklet was torn up on September 17!?" Su Cimo's eyes were profound, and he said with a light smile on his lips.

The emperor looked at the cover of the booklet, this booklet is indeed a booklet at the gate of the palace that records the entry and exit of officers and soldiers, and the year recorded in this book is the year when there was a famine in the southwest hinterland, and he sent tens of thousands of taels of silver for disaster relief, but the year when all of them were lost on the road was also the year when Su Cimo's father was sentenced to death row.

"Oh, it's indeed the day of September 17 missing, as if someone had torn it off." The emperor flipped through it, but saw that a page was indeed missing, and the remnants of that page were still there, but the place where the text was recorded in the middle was missing.

Su Cimo smiled on his face, and then said: "Because, this September 17 is the day when the disaster relief silver was lost for the first time in Shilipo outside the city. On this day, Lord Wang Xiao, the squire of the military department, went out of the palace and went to the barracks without permission with the military talisman, and said that after taking people up the mountain to destroy the palace, the mountain barked more than wild wolves all day long, so as to help Concubine Yang Niangniang calm her mind. He left the palace several times that day, and it was recorded in this booklet, but Lord Wang Xiao was afraid that his plan would be exposed, so he took this booklet away and tore up the record of September 17th. In fact, this original page should have recorded his trip to the barracks. ”

The emperor's face froze, and he looked at Su Cimo with some unhappiness and continued to ask: "Then what is the use of him transferring 2,000 troops!?" ”

"Your Majesty, you forgot, I don't know if there were wild wolves in the mountains that day, but a huge group of mountain bandits appeared in Shilipo, and those mountain bandits were rumored to be wearing black clothes and black masks, and they all looked extremely fierce, and killing people with knives was as easy as beating dogs. Let me ask, with such skills, isn't the best of our military department the most similar, who else!? Su Cimo stood in front of the hall with his hands behind his back and analyzed.

As soon as the emperor heard this, he immediately felt more and more that what Su Cimo said was not completely untrustworthy, if this Wang Xiao didn't do this, then why did he have to tear off this page of the list of records of discrepancies!

"Okay, you go on, if this Shili Slope is not your father's doing, then what does it have to do with Lord Liu Qing!?" The emperor looked serious, picked up the eight-treasure gaiwan tea next to him and took a sip.

Su Cimo smiled, and then said: "This matter was personally done by Lord Liu Qing, my evidence, he is waiting outside the palace gate now!" ”

Suddenly, in this golden and splendid hall, all the people looked at the palace gate behind them with a curious look, and even the emperor took a closer look at the bright entrance.

"Biography!" The emperor stretched out his hand and commanded, and soon the eunuch shouted, "Witness into the palace." ”

Soon, an old man dressed in rags walked in, and all the courtiers in the court were stunned, looking at this person strangely, this person looked no different from the person called Huazi outside the city, I don't know where Su Cimo found such a witness.

"Knock on the emperor, long live the emperor!" The old man said in a hoarse voice.

Suddenly, the emperor was startled, and he squinted and didn't see who the old man was, but there were a few people in the minister's group, and there was a little fear in his eyes.

"This, it seems that the Lord Qi who was responsible for escorting the disaster relief silver to the three provinces south of the Yangtze River, but died in the Yellow River!" There was an old minister who said in a very small voice.

Suddenly, everyone looked at the old man kneeling on the ground with a look of surprise.

"Get up and tell me what's going on!" The emperor commanded.
