Su Mansion is also powerful in the court, Su Dingyuan's daughter Su Yayin married King Xin as a concubine, which is considered to have climbed to the royal family, Su Zijin is also favored by the emperor, and the royal title is the head of the township, so the scale of the Su family's kitchen is not small, the kitchen people plus the maid who went to the kitchen that day, there are always sixty or seventy people, all of them are trembling and kneeling on the ground, looking at the black pressure of a crowd.

The poisoning of Mrs. Su is a big deal, so all the Su family members came to see if they could catch the murderer, Su Dingyuan sat on the main seat, and coldly looked at the kneeling people below.

"You also know that a lot of things have happened in Sufu recently, but I never expected that there would be a slave who was bold enough to poison Su Taijun in Sufu, the old lady was not in good health a few days ago, and now the imperial doctor has also been invited, we should talk about who has the courage to do so?" Su Dingyuan's eyes were gloomy, and his eyes full of anger kept scanning the people below.

The red moon that had just been kicked away was enough for them to build up a sense of fear.

The maid at the bottom was even more trembling when he heard it, now there are many things happening in Su Mansion, and the poisoning of Su Lao Taijun is even more so that the grass and trees are all soldiers, Su Dingyuan and Su Dingshan were afraid that someone would get the news and escape when they called people over, so they didn't explain the reason clearly, but some clever people had a little feeling, and now that Su Dingyuan said it, everyone thought of the terrible thing about this matter, plus they really didn't know anything, so they had nothing to say, and there was silence below.

Su Dingyuan was even more irritable, he knew that the person who could drug Su Lao Taijun that day must be in this group of people, but now everyone lowered their heads in fear, and he couldn't see it at once.

Su Dingyuan eased his breath and continued: "Everyone, let me ask, has my Su Mansion ever treated people harshly? Su Fu has always been benevolent and righteous for many years, think about the monthly money you usually receive, has Su Fu ever been in arrears? Has Su Fu ever punished his subordinates for no reason? This time, the old lady was poisoned, and the murderer was hidden among you, I believe that as long as you commit something, there will be clues, you think about it, if there is any abnormal person or thing, as long as it is useful, it is the benefactor of Sufu, and you can get out of slavery. ”

The crowd below began to move a little, in all fairness, it was really good for them to stay in Su Mansion, but now that this kind of thing suddenly happened, they naturally wanted to entangle people out, after all, a murderer who poisoned and murdered others, who was not afraid of it? Master Su Dingyuan said that he could get rid of slavery, this is what many people dream of, some of them were sold to Sufu as slaves by their families, and some of them couldn't get by, and they sold themselves to become slaves, but seriously, who likes to be slaves? The names and belongings of the slaves belong to the master's family, and if the master is unhappy, they have nothing, and it is a great temptation for the people below to get out of the slave family.

"However, this time the thief is really bold, this time he dares to murder the old lady, then I don't know who it is next time? Such a sinister person stays in my Su Mansion, it is really unsettling, of course most people will not have such evil intentions as poisoning the old lady, but if you don't speak or identify, you are shielding that person, that is the accomplice of the murderer, my Su Mansion can't keep these people, since no one stands up, then don't blame me for being ruthless, lest I kill you, and at the worst I will sell you to the Turks. ”

Su Dingyuan has been in the officialdom for many years, and naturally knows that he must do things with grace and authority, and kindness makes others grateful, but majesty can make others obey, and under heavy punishment, he is not afraid that someone will not speak out.

The people below really panicked and sold them to the Turks as slaves, what is the difference between that and sending them to death? The Turks often live outside the pass, since they are not more prosperous than the capital, I heard that the white plague on the steppe can starve to death one by one, they have been in Sufu, although they are not rich, but they are also food and clothing, where will they be willing to give the Turks slaves. There was a cry of mercy below, but Su Dingyuan ignored it, and even let the other slaves beat those who took the lead in crying with sticks.

Aunt Fang was even more frightened, she had stayed in the Su family for many years, she would never have thought that there would be such an ending, and under this excitement, something suddenly came to mind in her mind.

"Master, master, I am innocent, I have worked diligently in the kitchen for so many years, how can I have such a ruthless heart, I remember, it was on the day of the old lady's poisoning, that Cui'er was weird and weird, everyone else was busy working, the slave maid looked at her a few times, she stood for a long time next to the soothing soup sent to the old lady's courtyard, and I don't know what to do, master, master, you should interrogate her!" Aunt Fang stumbled in front of Su Dingyuan, and said this with tears in her eyes, she was afraid, but she said so many words in a row, and she also expressed her loyalty, and hurriedly pointed towards Cui'er who was kneeling in the corner.

Su Dingyuan saw that the threat had an effect, and his gloomy gaze looked in the direction of Aunt Fang's arm, and then saw a panicked little maid.

Since Cui'er was called here, she began to be scared in her heart, Su Dingyuan was coaxed and frightened, the other servants were frightened, she was even more pale, and her soul was not possessed, and now she heard her name fiercely, and before she had time to breathe, she saw Master Su look straight over, and as soon as his body was soft, he fell to the ground, and tears came down on the spot: "No, it's not a slave, no, the slave doesn't dare." Now Cui'er is so frightened that she doesn't have time to think, she will only deny it, and she will only say that she doesn't know, and she can't say anything else.

At that moment, Su Dingyuan had a plan in his heart, and the other servants were frightened, but there was absolutely no such outrageous reaction, and there was definitely something wrong with this maid.

"Really? Since you say you're not? And what evidence is there? Su Dingyuan knew that Cui'er was flustered, but he wanted to ask when she was flustered and couldn't think clearly, maybe she could say something.

Cui'er has no evidence: "The slave and maid don't have it, no, the slave and the maid are loyal, the slave and the maid don't ......" Cui'er was flustered, her voice trembled, but her mouth kept saying this sentence repeatedly.

"Enough!" The maid in front of him was obviously lying, how could Su Dingyuan not see it: "I only know quibbles, and there is no evidence at all."

Su Dingyuan has been an official for many years, and the accumulated momentum sometimes even his subordinates are afraid, not to mention a little maid, Cui'er was frightened by Su Dingyuan's angry voice and trembled.

"Since there is already a witness, I will send you to the official uniform, I heard that the adults there will punish a lot, nail pulling, whipping, soldering iron, but you will suffer."

How could ordinary slaves and maids withstand such intimidation, Cui'er never thought that she would go to prison, and she broke down emotionally at the moment.
