Chapter 177: Floating Drunk
I don't know whether to say that Shuang'er was too good at concealing it, or if Su Shi Suri was too willful and reckless, and it was ordinary to do anything, so that she disappeared for three days before being noticed by others.
If it weren't for Zuo Cheng'an's hunger strike, the subordinates wouldn't be able to see the Su family, so they had to get along with Zuo. Zuo Xiangxian felt something strange and went to look at the Su family, only to realize that his beloved concubine was not in the mansion.
Shuang'er, who was exposed to a big lie, couldn't tell it clearly, and Su didn't dare to tell Guo's mother's identity, so she didn't tell Shuang'er where she was going.
I don't want her to be too cautious, but now that something has happened, no one around knows her whereabouts. However, what is even more tricky is that Shuang'er can't say the reason why the Qing Su clan secretly left the mansion alone.
Since the matter has been broken, naturally there is no way to hide it, I can't help but Zuo Xiang, Zuo Chengan, Zuo Jinyun know, Mrs. Zuo and Zuo Weiyu also know.
Soon, rumors spread in the house that Aunt Su had eloped with the same person. Zuo Jinyun gritted a mouthful of silver teeth angrily, knowing that this must be a yin damage trick that Mrs. Zuo came up with, but she was helpless.
And the Su family, who eloped with someone in the rumors, was in prison in Dali Temple at this time.
To say that Yang Gong can sit firmly in the position of Dali Temple, not only because of his jealous temperament, but also because of his strategy. With just a glance, he could see Guo's mother's old spicy and Su's weakness.
Yang Gong interrogated Guo's mother first, and as he expected, although Guo's mother was old, she was a hard bone. Even if he was on the torture instrument, he gritted his teeth and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Yang Gong was not in a hurry, and called the jailer and said, "Come on, take this thief woman down and change it to another one for trial." ”
Several jailers obeyed the order and dragged Guo's mother down to change Su's family. Su Shi watched Guo's mother being brought back in blood, and almost fainted as soon as he handheld her on the Xing frame.
"You, you can't do this to me, my lord is, he is the prime minister of the dynasty, he will definitely not spare you."
Yang Gong sneered and scolded: "Bold thief Su Clan, this official is on the order of the emperor to detain and interrogate you, you had better tell everything honestly quickly, and avoid the pain of flesh and skin." ”
Su Shi was full of excitement, and finally couldn't deceive himself anymore. Now that the matter has been in front of the emperor, don't say that when the master comes to save her, she can't say that she will be affected by herself.
Seeing that the last trace of life was gone, Su Shi's heart was finally like ashes. Since no one could save her, in order not to become the next Guo's mother, the Su family honestly confessed everything she knew.
But the Su family is just a chess piece, and he doesn't know much, except for going to the Spring Pavilion every month to get medicine, he only knows that Mother Guo on the Old Master Lan's Mansion is the henchman Red Slave next to the master, and she is also the highest upline in the capital.
Seeing that Su Shi confided what he knew, Yang Gong really didn't embarrass her anymore, and asked the jailer to put the person down and send her back to the cell. However, in this way, the focus returned to Guo's mother.
The subordinate said distressedly: "My lord, this Guo family's tone is so tight now, but how can it be good." ”
Yang Gong put down the testimony of the Su family in his hand, and said unhurriedly: "People's hearts are fickle, she is biting her mouth now, but it may not be another day." ”
The subordinate heard a little meaning, and hurriedly asked, "Listen to the meaning of the adult's words, there is already a way?" So how are you going to go? But do you want to continue to torture Guo? ”
Yang Gong shook his head, carefully took Su's testimony and prepared to take it back to study it carefully. After getting up, he saw that his subordinates were already scratching their ears and cheeks in a hurry, so he said incomprehensibly: "There is no need to interrogate Guo in the future, only others are optimistic about it, don't let people die." ”
The subordinate was stunned, and subconsciously blurted out: "That's it?" ”
However, Yang Gong had already walked away with his hands behind his back and did not answer his subordinates' questions again.
The Su family is in prison, and the frost in the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is also in prison, and the master and servant can really be called sharing weal and woe.
Because Su Shi has no news, Shuang'er, the only one who knows, has always refused to tell the truth. Zuo Xiang was anxious and angry, and in a fit of rage, he asked him to pull Shuang'er down and hit the board.
Shuang'er has been by Su's side for many years, and even with nature, it is a chicken dog ascending to heaven, where has she ever suffered hardship. When I heard that I was going to hit the board, I was so frightened that I finally told the truth.
But she really doesn't know much, it's really unconvincing to say it at the moment, and there is Mrs. Zuo fanning the flames by the side, where will Prime Minister Zuo believe it?
Shuang'er also wanted to cry without tears, her lies were hidden from everyone a few days ago, but now she told the truth but no one believed her.
Zuo Xiang only thought that Shuang'er was still resisting stubbornly, and slapped the table angrily, and shouted: "Pull people down and beat me hard, if you don't tell the truth, you will be beaten to death!" ”
Shuang'er was really wronged, shouting all the way that she was dragged out, and soon her voice was drowned out in the cry of pain.
It was just when the chickens were flying and the dogs were jumping, and the porter came back and forth, saying that the palace was built and sent someone to invite the left minister to the palace to discuss important matters. Zuo Xiang was too busy to take care of himself, and he didn't want to get too close to King Jian, so he asked the porter to send people away. make
Zuo Xiang didn't know that the person who came was Ji Sihong's attendant guard Liu Zong. Although Liu Zong has no official position, the identity of King Jian's henchman is more profitable than most idle petty officials.
In the past, others were respectful and respectful when they saw him, but now they don't appreciate it at all. Liu Zong saw that the porter's attitude was sluggish, and he felt even more humiliated, and he no longer entangled.
After returning to the Jianwang Mansion, Ji Sihong was anxiously pacing back and forth in the hall. Liu Zong knelt down before he got closer, and then he spoke: "Back to the master, the subordinates are incompetent, and they failed to invite the left minister, and they also ask the master to punish him." ”
Ji Sihong originally snatched the Shenyu grass from the prince, but he was suspicious and let Zuo Xiang palm his eyes. Seeing Liu Zong's appearance now, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Liu Zong held his breath, and naturally there were no good words in his mouth.
"Master, it was really the left prime minister who deceived people too much, and his subordinates went to the left prime minister's mansion to let the concierge go in and report it, but the left minister did not give the prince face at all, and ruthlessly turned his subordinates away.
The subordinates don't care what, but where does the majesty of the master be placed by the left minister's move? ”
Ji Sihong was greatly annoyed when he heard it, he couldn't stand being despised the most in his life. With a horizontal heart, he said to Liu Zong with a gloomy face: "You let the old man bring the divine grass, this king wants to fight with the sky this time!" ”
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long, and I always feel that the days pass very quickly. In winter, a heavy snow fell in the middle of winter for three days, and the capital was covered in silver, as if it would be secretly dirty. The filth is completely buried.
As Old Master Lan was involved, the "floating drunkness" that Liao Guangtian tried his best to conceal was finally revealed. Its unbelievable medicinal properties are creepy, and the smell is changing.
inevitably caused panic, but the matter was not spread, and the emperor handed over all powers to Ji Lingyun to investigate.
After several days of heavy snowfall, the clouds finally cleared.
Bai Yanran rose to the warm winter glow, and unsurprisingly felt that she was holding the arm of the man behind her waist. As soon as she moved, her arm tightened.
Looking at Ji Lingyun's imperceptible black green at the moment, Bai Yanran was a little distressed, and wanted him to sleep well, so she didn't want to get up, so she turned around and looked at her husband quietly.
The prince has been really busy these days, and Mo said that he came back to have dinner with her, but he didn't see anyone before going to bed. Bai Yanran fell asleep by herself, and when she woke up, she realized that Ji Lingyun had come back last night.
At this moment, Ji Lingyun, who closed his eyes tightly and seemed to be asleep, suddenly spoke: "If the lady continues to look at it, her husband will not be able to bear it." ”
Only then did Bai Yanran realize that Ji Lingyun had woken up a long time ago, and she had actually looked at herself in such a stupid state, and suddenly broke free of that arm and sat up, calling someone to wait for her to freshen up.
Ji Lingyun really didn't mean to tease her, but he was so worried that he couldn't avoid falling asleep, so he woke up as soon as Bai Yanran moved. But perceiving Bai Yanran's thoughts, he was naturally willing to sleep with his mother in his arms for a while.
However, the lady's affectionate gaze made him feel uneasy, and he couldn't sleep now, so Ji Lingyun simply got up.
Seeing that Ji Lingyun could not hide the sadness between his eyebrows, Bai Yanran thought for a while and asked, "The prince is worried this time, but what did he ask?" ”
Ji Lingyun smiled when he heard this, looked at her and said, "The lady is really smart, she can't hide anything from you." ”
If you really can't ask anything, there is always a way. On the contrary, it is the most difficult to ask if something is great.
Bai Yan said clearly: "Su and Guo's mother have confessed? ”
Ji Lingyun rubbed his eyebrows and said: "The Su family is not scared, and when he entered the Dali Temple, he explained everything he knew. But she didn't know much, and she mainly had to think of ways to pry Guo's mouth open.
This Guo is loyal, and at first he refused to confess to Liao Guangtian after suffering from the criminal law. But Yang Gong had his own means and abandoned it, and as time went by, Guo couldn't hold his breath.
was afraid that he would really be locked up in prison for the rest of his life, but he was finally caught by Yang Gong and pried his mouth open. ”
Bai Yanran speculated: "This Mother Guo is very skilled, and she was sent to lurk beside Old Master Lan, it must not be a simple character, she should know a lot." ”
Ji Lingyun nodded and sighed: "Yes, this Mother Guo is Liao Guangtian's henchman, and she is the highest upline in Beijing." According to her confession, the Spring Pavilion is Liao Guangtian's hidden stake in Beijing, which is used to confuse people's hearts with floating drunkenness.
But Liao Guangtian is very cautious, even Guo's mother doesn't know the origin of the Spring Pavilion. Now that the Spring Pavilion has been burned, the proprietress Chen Ru died violently, and the guy Huang Ming is nowhere to be found.
At the moment, we can't be sure, out of King An's Mansion, Zuo Xiang's Mansion and Lan Lao Taishi's Mansion. How many officials in the family of officials in Beijing have been controlled into fine works by Fusheng drunk! ”
Liao Guangtian's move is really vicious, and it is impossible to guard against it. Thinking that she had almost been hit, Bai Yanran couldn't help but be afraid for a while. She said with a solemn face: "Liao Guangtian is far away in Nanyang, it would be forgivable if he just planted a few eyeliner." But now he is trying so hard to infiltrate the families of princes and nobles with malicious means, he doesn't want to usurp the throne! ”
