Chapter 137: Eunuchs
The decision to go to the capital seemed to be half-pushed, plus some subjective consciousness, and Su Wan just followed.
What will happen in the future, no one can tell Su Wan.
But there are a lot of things going on right now.
Regarding the murder case, Su Wan thought that the murderer was arrested, and then he would wait for the sentence.
But he never thought that the murder had caused a lot of trouble before, and the news had already spread to the capital.
When Li Changqing was imprisoned, the news was quickly sent to the capital, and the capital quickly sent new news.
To be precise, it was a holy decree for Subotong.
"Carried by heaven, the emperor said... Ordered Su Cheng to assassinate Shi Su Botong for self-examination and self-examination..."
The content of the decree is mainly the sentence and the rebuke of Subotong.
Su Wan saw such a scene for the first time, although it was very uncomfortable to kneel on the ground, but everyone else knelt, so he didn't feel awkward.
There was only one person standing in the hall, and it was Cao Rang, the eunuch who announced the decree.
After reading through the content of the holy decree, Cao Rang closed the holy decree and handed it over to Su Botong, who was kneeling on the ground, and Su Wan and the others stood up in turn.
Speaking of which, I don't know if it's good luck or not, Su Botong happens to be in the house today, otherwise Su Wan wouldn't have been able to understand what it was like to receive the order.
"Father-in-law Cao's trip is hard, and the official has prepared a place for his father-in-law..."
Su Botong took the initiative, there was no way, he was weak now, the emperor asked him to check himself, he must have felt that he was wrong.
Fortunately, it was the Su family who took the initiative to expose Li Changqing's evil deeds, if it was exposed by others, such as the Gu family, he was afraid that this assassination history would come to an end.
And Cao Rang, who is the number one figure in the palace, has to be pleased.
"Don't bother Master Su, the miscellaneous family has its own place to go," Cao Rang said.
Su Botong was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he naturally would not force him to stay, but he would inevitably pay attention to it in the follow-up to see where Cao Rang lived.
Cao Rang left with a group of guards, and the Su family finally regained calm.
Su Wan returned to Haitang Courtyard and hurriedly asked Mama Lin.
"Can you know Grandpa Cao?" Su Wan asked.
Mama Lin has been in the palace, and I don't know if I know anything about Cao Rang.
"Naturally, I know, but I didn't have a relationship in the past," Mama Lin said.
"Gonggong Cao is the former chief eunuch of His Majesty, and Liu Zhuo's godson," Mama Lin said again.
Su Wan knew that in this era and dynasty, the chief eunuch was the most powerful one among the eunuchs.
This shows how powerful Cao Rang's background is.
No wonder Su Botong had a sense of flattery in his speech, and after being rejected, he was not half angry.
"Such a person came to Sioux City just to read a holy decree?" Su Wan said with some doubts.
I always feel that it is a bit overkill.
"Miss, be cautious," Mama Lin said quickly.
This is a bit 'dangerous', Cao Rang came with a holy decree, what is the holy decree, the supreme will.
Not to mention sending Cao Rang, even letting Liu Zhuo come in person is nothing.
However, Su Wan thought well, it was indeed a bit overkill, but he couldn't say that.
"Father-in-law Cao refused to live in the residence arranged by the eldest master, for fear that there would be other arrangements," Mama Lin said.
This statement makes sense, Su Wan nodded.
"Ling Chi, tsk..."Su Wan was speechless.
Thinking of Li Changqing's will in the holy decree, Su Wan felt terrified when he thought about it.
Killing people is not enough, and Ling Chi's punishment is definitely cruel that no other punishment can match.
Su Wan, who has received a modern education, even if he knows that Li Changqing is extremely evil, it is difficult for him to accept the existence of this kind of punishment.
"Li Changqing's crime is extremely evil, otherwise, how to calm the anger of the public," Mama Lin said.
Su Wan lives in the Begonia Courtyard, although she has worries and troubles every day, but compared with the pregnant women who were killed by Li Changqing and the pregnant women's families, what is it.
"He deserves it," Su Wan said with a sigh.
It's just that having said that, thinking of the word 'Ling Chi', the hairs behind Su Wan's back will still stand up.
This is not a TV series, but a real, upcoming event.
At the same time, Su Rui of the long house also got these news.
Because she had just reconciled with Li Changqing, she needed to avoid something, so she didn't listen to the order.
Ji didn't go either, saying that it was not suitable to see the wind in illness, and correspondingly, Su Meng needed to 'serve the sick' for her mother, and she couldn't go out.
As a result, no one went to listen to the order in the backyard of the long house.
The people in the long house, who have always walked in front of everyone, this feeling is really indescribable.
"It's actually Ling Chi..."
Su Rui's expression was dull, she didn't expect Li Changqing to end up like this.
On the one hand, I am glad that I left in time and was not implicated, and on the other hand, I also felt that in the past few years, I don't know what kind of life I have lived, and I have been a husband and wife for so long with a person who is finally going to be Ling Chi.
"The Li family is no good," Ji said.
Li Changqing's murder was a personal act, and there was no crime or family, and the holy decree did not mention the crime of joint sitting.
But everyone knows that this matter is decided, and the decline of the Li family is a matter of time.
And eighty percent is early, not late.
"What about the corpse of that slut, where did Li Changqing mention it?" Su Rui suddenly asked.
Knowing that Li Changqing would die a miserable death, Su Rui suddenly thought of Liu's corpse.
In her hands, there is also a human life.
Ji Shi also realized the problem and frowned.
"He didn't say that," Ji said.
"No, you have to explain to your father at this time," Ji said again.
The two of them are still grounded, and there are too few things they can do.
It's just that Ji's thoughts were quickly interrupted by Su Rui.
"No, mother, I can't say it, I can't let more people know about this matter," Su Rui hurriedly said.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with killing Liu's mother and son before, and it wasn't until Li Changqing was sentenced to Ling Chi that she knew that murder really had to be sentenced.
The difference between her and Li Changqing is that Li Changqing killed many people, while she killed one, no, plus Liu's stomach, it should be two.
At this moment, Su Rui remembered the situation on the day of Liu's accident.
Li Changqing went out for something, and then Liu fell at her feet, which was pushed by her own hands.
Later, the midwife tried to deliver the baby.
Although the child was only five months old, Liu and the midwife did not give up.
What did she do at that time.
She made a 'suggestion' to break her stomach and take the child.
Then, Liu's tragic death, and the child was naturally gone.
At that time, she had only given birth to Li Jun not long ago.
Thinking that she had a son, other people's children, male and female, should not live.
So when Li Changqing rushed back, he could only see the Liu family who had lost his breath, and the child who had just been taken out and had lost his breath.
"I don't know," Su Rui said in a trance.
Thinking of the tragic situation of those people killed by Li Changqing, Su Rui didn't dare to let people know that she also had such two lives in her hands.
