Chapter 44: Saving Lives

When I returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was already late at night, but An Heqing and the third uncle were still waiting in the front hall. The old lady probably couldn't bear it anymore and had already been sent back to Yunxiang Courtyard.

Jin Su relayed everything An Suqing said, including how he had a conflict with Tu Liu because of Lian Yu.

"Alas~ I can't go to the land of fireworks, and the women there can't be touched. It's good to get rid of this kid, but this one ......"

Probably because An Heqing's face became more and more ugly, the third uncle's words were only half said.

"Father, third uncle, the people from the Criminal Department have already sent people to look for Lian Yu, except for Su Qing, she is the last person to see Tu Liu, but it seems that she has not been found."

The third uncle nodded hurriedly and agreed, "Yes, I also know this, it was precisely because I couldn't find that Lian Yu that I arrested Su Qing." But how can we find someone who can't even be found by the Criminal Department? ”

An Heqing looked at Jinsu and asked, "Su'er, what do you think?" ”

"The third uncle is right, I'm afraid that the road of Lianyu will not work." After a pause, he asked instead, "Third Uncle, can you go to the Criminal Department to inquire about when Tu Liu died and where did he die?" ”

"It's not difficult, it's just ......"

"Father, you and the princess have interrogated everyone in the palace and found all the people who had seen the Qing that night and the next morning."

"Su'er, are you trying to ......?"

"Well," Jin Su nodded, "we have to find enough evidence to prove that there was no way to kill anyone that night!" ”

"What about Yi Chunfang?" An Heqing asked.

"Why don't you let the fourth child ask?" The third uncle suggested.

"No need, it's not that I don't trust the fourth uncle, it's about the life of the Qing and the innocence of the Prime Minister's house, it's really not a child's play. Leave this matter to me! ”

"You!?" The third uncle looked at her in surprise.

An Heqing also snorted coldly, "Su'er, you are your daughter's family, how can you go to such a place and spread it out for others to talk about?" ”

"Father, third uncle, you misunderstood, it's not that I went in person, I want to go to Major General Sima for help, he has always had a good relationship with Su Qing, and he will definitely do his best."

When the father and the third uncle heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then let's do it!"

After the discussion, it was already time. The three of them dispersed in a hurry, after all, as soon as the morning dawned, everyone was going to get busy.

On the way back to Hanlian Courtyard, Jin Su walked very fast, which was not much pressure for Bai Qi, but Chunyue barely kept up with small steps.

Panting, still remembering, "Miss, have you thought of a way to save the young master?" ”

"Do you also want to rescue the young master?" Jinsu asked as she walked.

"Hmmm! Of course! Chunyue said categorically.

"Okay, there is just something you need to do, and only you are the most suitable to do it, it is up to you whether you can save the young master."

"Really!?" Chunyue was ecstatic and swept away her exhaustion.

"Of course!" Jin Su said affirmatively, and stepped up to cheer Chunyue again.

"You will quietly inquire at dawn tomorrow, who saw it the night the young master returned home, and what did you see?"

"Good! I know. "Chunyue Road

Having already entered the Hanlian Courtyard, Jin Su stepped into the room with one foot, and turned around to stop Chunyue and admonished.

"Oh, by the way, Princess Tomorrow and her father will be questioning everyone as well, but I'm sure you'll be able to talk about more! Remember, just small talk! I'll talk about everything I talked about when I come back, and you should know the severity of this matter without me! ”

"Hmm!" Spring Moon is like a heavy responsibility, full of fighting spirit.

The reason why she had to arrange for Chunyue to stay and secretly inquire about the news was something she had already thought about, not a temporary idea.

First, she didn't want to take Chunyue to Yi Chunfang, she definitely wanted to understand the situation in person, and it was inevitable for a woman to dress up as a man. But for such a thing, he would rather believe that Sima Huaibei, who had only met twice, would be tight-lipped.

Second, the mansion really needs her to secretly inquire about the real situation of that night, otherwise there are many timid people who will not know anything when the princess and her father are interrogated.

Seeing that there are still two hours before the sky should be light, fortunately, Sima Huaibei is a military general, and he is a military general who has been stationed outside for many years, and he does not need to go to court. So I wasn't in a hurry, and I was too late to find him after dawn.

In fact, as soon as the day dawned, Sima Huaibei had already found the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Jin Su had just gotten up when the housekeeper came to report.

She has seen Sima Huaibei's attraction to An Yasheng, hey...... Be sure to get ahead of her. Thinking like this, Jin Su asked Bai Qi and Bai Zhi to simply freshen up and hurry out.

"Major General!" Jin Su bowed slightly, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting." ”

"It's okay! The sudden visit was that I was abrupt! Purge him...... What's going on? ”

"Temporarily locked in prison, except for no freedom, everything else is fine."

"That's good! What the hell is going on, how can it be such a big thing as killing someone? ”

Then, Jin Su told Sima Huaibei about what An Suqing said. Finally, he added, "I don't know if this has anything to do with my father's revelation of grain and grass?" ”

Jin Su said this, nothing more than to let Sima Huaibei know in his heart, this matter is not just as simple as wronging An Suqing.

"In any case, we should first find a way to prove that the purge is innocent!" Unexpectedly, Sima Huaibei did not respond to Jinsu's question.

Jinsu had no choice but to give up. On the other hand, this just proves that Sima Huaibei is a brave and resourceful smart person.

When the two came to Yi Chunfang, Jin Su didn't have time to change into men's clothes, so he had to cover his face with a veil.

"Miss, if you don't go in, after all, you are your daughter's ......"

"The young general is thoughtful, and Jinsu is very thankful. However, it is a matter of life and death of the Qing Dynasty and the innocence of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I am also anxious to wait outside, it is better to go in with you, there are still you on the left and right, I will not suffer. ”

She knew that if she didn't come forward, Second Sister You would definitely be perfunctory to Sima Huaibei, without saying half a word of truth.

Yi Chunfang generally does business in the afternoon and evening, and it is early in the morning, and it is not open at all.

Bai Zhi called the door open, and a little guy rubbed his eyes and asked angrily, "What are you doing?" ”

Sima Huaibei didn't seem to hear it, and walked in.

"Eh, what the hell are you doing?" The little guy relentlessly caught up and asked.

Jin Su gave Bai Zhi a look.

Bai Zhi immediately understood, stepped forward and patted the little maid on the shoulder, and said with a cold face, "Go and find your master!" ”

The little guy may have been slapped a little painfully, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little, and he nodded his head again and again.

Bai Qi and Jin Su followed up and closed the door again.

Sima Huaibei was in the hall, looking around, quite a look.

Jin Su and Bai Qi glanced at each other, neither of them spoke, and they also pretended to be the first time to come and followed Sima Huaibei to check.

After a while, Second Sister You came with a smile shaking her graceful figure.

"I said, this master, why did you come so early, you came here, why did you bring the girl by yourself?"

Second Sister You walked in front of Sima Huaibei, her eyes were still sweeping over her, and when she swept over Bai Qi, she was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"Shopkeeper, we are here for important things, not for fun, you just need to cooperate with us!"

"Hey~ What is the shopkeeper called, why don't you go with the big guy and call me Second Sister You!" Second Sister You said with a smile, and raised her hand to greet again, "Since you have something to say, come here, let's sit and talk slowly, ha~"

After Sima Huaibei sat down, he asked, "Do you know An Suqing, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Second Sister You widened her eyes and asked, "Who?" The son of the Prime Minister's House? I don't know! ”

Sima Huaibei glared at Second Sister You, "He can be a frequent visitor here!" How could you not know? ”

"Yo~ Look at what you said, there are so many guests who come to me, and they don't know everyone! Just like you, don't I know and don't know? If you open your door to do business, what does it matter if you know what you don't know. ”

"It's just someone else, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion and a girl named Lian Yu here here are in an uproar, how can you not know each other? On the first day of opening, I got into trouble because of this incident, and you said you didn't know each other, is it possible? Sima Huaibei's continuous questioning didn't even happen to Jinsu.

"Oh~~" Second Sister You made a look of sudden realization, "Are you talking about that scholar, it turns out that he is really the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

"You're pretending less! Let's talk about the conflict between him and Tu Liu here that night! ”

"As soon as you say this, I remember, yes, one night because of the rain, he did have a conflict with Tu Liuye, although he was hit twice, but it didn't hurt the vital point!"

"Tell me all over again what happened that night."

In this way, Second Sister You told An Suqing about drinking alone after the conflict, and it was similar to what An Suqing said.

"Is that all?" Sima Huaibei asked.

"Well, that's all!" Second Sister You spread her hands and said helplessly.

Look, this is Second Sister You! **Lake, just with Sima Huaibei, there is no more useful thing to get out of her.

Jin Su took out a piece of silver, crossed Sima Huaibei, and stuffed it into Second Sister You's hands.

asked softly, "Second Sister You, I want to ask, about when Tu Liu left that night, who did he leave with, and who can be a witness?" ”

When Second Sister You looked at her, although she still had a charming smile on her face, she was already a lot more serious.

"Heh~" Second Sister You looked at the silver in her hand, and seemed to be a lot happier, "I remembered this, when Tu Liu left, there were two little guys around him, and An Suqing was still hiding in that corner and getting drunk at that time!" ”

"Is there anyone else to testify to, besides you?" Jinsu asked.

"Eh~, there should be a lot, and there should be a lot of girls from Yi Chunfang. I'll have to ask about this slowly. ”

Jin Su took another ingot of silver and handed it to her, "I believe that Second Sister You will definitely be able to help me ask, this is a little hard work, I hope you will bother more." ”

"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Saying that, Second Sister You shook her body and left.

Sima Huaibei saw Second Sister You's bright smile when she left, and praised, "It's still good for silver!" ”

Jin Su smiled slightly and agreed.

Of course, he won't let him know, and when Jin Su stuffed the silver, he also let Second Sister You touch the token of the Dark Night Gate by the way, letting her know that she was Jin Su. Otherwise, with only two ingots of silver, how could Second Sister You look at it.
