Chapter Seventy-Six: Catching Up
Su Huai had already rushed back from the capital, and although he had gone through an inexplicable prison sentence, his spirit seemed to be quite good.
Seeing Li Xu and Sun Chong who came to greet him, Su Huai was very emotional, and couldn't help but step forward and pat Li Xu's shoulder: "You've worked hard these days." ”
Li Xu bent down and saluted: "Teacher, don't say that, there is very little I can do in this case." ”
Su Huai had already heard about it in Beijing, and after Wang Yun came to Fengxiang to find out the truth of the case, the Xu family seemed to have helped from it, and the Anyi Marquis Mansion was also regarded as a righteous annihilation, and the merits were offset.
Thinking of this, Su Huai looked guilty: "This matter actually has nothing to do with the Hou Ye, I only cared about fighting with the rebels back then, how can I take care of the affairs of the clan, it is my fault in the final analysis, if it wasn't for the fact that I didn't find the tax money taken away by the rebels, I wouldn't have left the root of the trouble, and I have already asked the court for guilt." ”
In fact, Su Huai was seriously injured at that time, and he was able to support and cooperate with the imperial army to attack the city.
"There are so many things that happened in this way, and the teacher didn't expect it."
Li Xu let Su Huai sit aside to rest, Su Huai picked up the water bladder and took a sip and said: "On the way back, I received a document saying that Mrs. Guangping Hou was a spy of Duo Gansi, and the officials ordered me to return to Shaanxi day and night to sort out the case documents. ”
Sun Chong said: "Not only that, but they also suspect Lord Wang Yun. ”
Su Huai was even more surprised, Wang Yun was a well-known Qing official, and after thinking for a moment, he looked at Li Xu: "What the hell is going on?" Tell me more about it. ”
Su Huai listened to the whole case, and looked at Li Xu with complicated eyes: "Do you also think that these are all done by Wang Yun?" ”
Li Xu's eyes were clear: "I'm not sure, I can't convict anyone before the case is cleared." ”
Sun Chong nodded to the side.
Su Huai groaned: "But there is indeed something strange, Wang Yun, as the prefect, why did he take you all the way to follow here, as if it is expected that there will be a case, if I deal with it, I should send Sun Chong to secretly protect it, and the torture rooms will cooperate with it along the way."
If you know that someone is watching the ladies of the Marquis of Anyi, let alone use them as bait to lure the murderer to take the bait, this is inappropriate.
As for the case of the Chen brothers you mentioned, there are also many doubts, whether these two people are brothers has not been verified, and since what is written in the document is not consistent with what Chen Changle said, not to mention that Chen Changle entered the house and committed murder first, the evidence is conclusive, how not to interrogate Chen Changle first. ”
Li Xu said: "But these can only prove that Wang Yun was negligent in handling the case." ”
Su Huai nodded, no one can be guilty without evidence, especially a person with a good reputation like Wang Yun, even if he doubts him, he will be on fire.
It is necessary to be more cautious in handling such cases.
That's why there are so many sunken cases, which would rather be pressed for decades than anyone wants to touch them.
After experiencing the disaster of prison, Su Huai's mind has changed a little from before, no matter how careful he is, disaster will come.
Li Xu said: "The teacher has just returned to Shaanxi, and he can start from the documents of these cases to carefully check whether there are any errors or omissions, if there are reliable people in the criminal department, and all the cases handled by Lord Wang Yun over the years, the student is willing to take someone to the place where the case occurred and re-sort out the case." ”
Su Huai looked at Li Xu in surprise: "This is a hard errand. ”
Li Xu bowed: "As long as it can be beneficial to the case, no matter what the results are, or if the person can be brought to justice, or if he can prove his innocence, it will not be in vain." ”
Su Huai nodded: "After the Fengxiang case, I have already recommended you to the imperial court, you are busy for me this time, and the servants of the ministry also praise you a lot, the imperial court is at the time of employing people, and it should be able to find a vacancy for you soon, now you will take my post to investigate the case, I will make proper arrangements, someone asked, you only said that you were my student." ”
Li Xu sent Su Huai on the horse.
Zhou Yue said: "Are we going to leave next?" ”
Li Xu turned his head to look at the official road: "Catch up with the carriage of the Marquis of Anyi's Mansion first, I have a few words I want to say to the eldest lady of the Marquis of Anyi's Mansion." ”
……
Xu Qinghuan listened to the voice coming from the carriage in front of him.
Xu Qing'an sat on his horse dejectedly, still fiddling with a rabbit made of straw in his hand.
In addition to sleeping for two hours a day, Lord Xian will make a lot of trouble, Xu Qingan has exhausted all methods, and he can't please Lord Xian's "heart".
Wine, Lord Xian spit it out after taking a sip.
No matter how good the rice is, it will become pig food in front of Lord Xian, and when he is full, he will spit out non-stop.
Could it be that he has to buy a woman to come back?
Thinking of this, Xu Qingan couldn't help but spit on himself, in front of his mother and sister, how could he think of such a trivial thing and avoid them?
Xu Qingan slapped himself.
Lord Xian may really be crazy, what if my sister can't find clues from Lord Xian and return to Beijing?
Xu Qingan touched his hard buttocks, he couldn't do anything else, he was beaten dozens of boards for his sister, it is estimated that his father was angry, and they didn't do anything else, and the court couldn't ask women and children for their crimes.
Thinking of this, the curtain of the car was blown open again, Lord Xian stretched out half of his head with his mouth, Xu Qingan handed over the little rabbit in his hand, and Lord Xian opened his mouth and bit the little rabbit.
Xu Qingan was about to sigh, only to hear someone say: "A few masters, do you want to eat a bowl of tea, it is the mountain spring water near here, sweet and thirst-quenching." ”
The little child stepped forward with a basket with a smile on his face.
Xu Qingan didn't speak yet, but he heard Master Xian shout, and the whole person seemed to be stimulated by something, and his body threw forward, and half of the people were about to fall out of the carriage.
The child was startled and took a few steps back, the basket in his hand fell to the ground, and all the tea in the bowl was spilled.
There was a woman standing in the tea house on the side of the street, and she was so frightened when she saw this situation, that she was afraid that it would be a child who would disturb these nobles, so she immediately stepped forward and scolded: "What are you doing...... Useless things, just kill you, it's only going to cause trouble every day......"
"I didn't, I didn't ......" the child cried and hid, with a pleading look on his face, "Don't hit me, I was wrong...... I was wrong. ”
The child cried loudly, and Lord Xian's expression gradually became hideous, his eyes widened, and he stretched out his head and slammed into the carriage.
"Knock, knock, knock."
There was also a ghost crying wolf howl in his throat.
Lord Xian was in such a situation that the entire convoy stopped, and the woman did not dare to speak anymore, and subconsciously protected the child behind her.
"Auntie, this is tea money, let's go!" Meng Lingyun stepped forward to dot.
How dare the woman take the money, but she said, "It's good that you don't blame, if you don't blame." Hurriedly fled with the child into the tea house.
Master Xian exhausted his strength before he gradually quieted down, and when Xu Qingan came out of the carriage, his clothes were already soaked with sweat.
"It's hard work, brother." Xu Qinghuan hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the handkerchief.
The soft handkerchief was fragrant, and seeing her sister caring about herself so much, Xu Qingan only felt tired and went most of it.
"I thought it was better, but I didn't expect it to ......" Xu Qingan couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
Xu Qinghuan turned his head to look at the tea house, obviously Master Xian's sudden madness was related to the child's crying, Xu Qinghuan's eyes were slightly deep, and a thought flashed in his mind.
There was a rush of horses' hooves.
Not far away, the two horses galloped close.
Feng Xiao was about to help Xu Qinghuan into the carriage to dodge.
"No need." Xu Qinghuan had already seen the person who came, it was Li Xu and Zhou Yue.
"Miss Xu," Li Xu jumped off his horse, looking at her brightly, "could you please have two cups of tea?" ”
