Chapter 353: Suspicion Takes Root
Changying looked at Yang Su, and the chill rose all the way from the soles of her feet, but it also made her mind extremely sharp: "If I remember correctly, the guard where you once served for three years is also the Dongning guard in the hand of the Guangwei Hou Mansion!" β
"That's why he has been in the army for many years, and his identity is kept secret so well?" Ling Yuan's voice was also awe-inspiring. But he looked at Yang Su again: "Could it be that you are suspicious of the dark ghost because of that piece of jade?" β
"But the prince's suspicions are reasonable!" Rong Yin said, "Since the origin of the jade is unknown, then you must be suspicious!" - Don't bother, let's each take a few people to check Fu Rong's whereabouts last night!
"βChen Ling!"
The guards guarding the door immediately stepped in.
Seeing this, Ling Yuan also quickly summoned Guo Jiao in.
Dongyang Bo also has arrangements here.
Yang Su didn't bring anyone here, he couldn't use his strength, and he had already entered the stage of fidgeting, walking back and forth along the curtain.
Changying watched Guo Jiao and them leave one by one, and their blood was a little boiling.
She had roughly guessed the "Five Princes" before, and there were not a few powerful children she knew in Jingshi, and there were many who needed to cover their voices in front of her, but before that, she really didn't think that Fu Rong would be suspicious.
He has always seemed to be outside of disputes, always and everywhere like a noble son who only wants to be in the wind and snow, if it wasn't for Yang Su mentioning that piece of jade, who would have thought of the many doubts on him?
"Girl, the meal is ready, do you want to pass the meal first?"
A purple thread knocking on the door outside interrupted the tension in the room.
Yang Su stopped under the curtain, remembering that everyone had been busy all night and had never rested until now, so he said: "Right now, it's just waiting, eat first, and wait while eating." β
Ling Yuan: The time they gave Guo Jiao and the others was half an hour.
After a meal, the people who went out came back one after another!
"The subordinates went to the city gates on all sides in batches to inquire, and someone at the city gate saw Fu Shizi leaving the city. However, according to the shopkeeper on the street outside Fu's house, Fu Shizi left the house at noon yesterday and did not return to the house until this morning.
"The time when he returned home coincided with the time when we were separated, and the clothes he wore when he returned home were the same as the ones he left yesterday.
In addition, the subordinates randomly picked another shop to inquire, and the other party said that Fu Shizi had bought dim sum in the shop before going out yesterday, and then the second master of the Fu family came, and the brothers left together.
"The second master of the Fu family also returned to the mansion in the middle of the night last night, and someone at the city gate also saw them come back, the time can be right!"
This means that Fu Rong had a certificate of alibi last night?!
Unexpectedly, the room fell silent again.
Changying didn't know if the suspicion had taken root or what, she always felt that even if Fu Rong had proof of going out of the city, all the doubts before seemed to grow on him.
"Evidence can also be faked, not to mention that as the fifth prince, it is not difficult to buy off a few false witnesses!"
Dongyang Bo said: "Fu Rong, I really haven't heard of the rumors of his life history here, but since I am suspicious, I can't relax.
"From now on, I still go to check on other children, while we further look for Fu Rong's evidence, and we all act separately, on the premise of not startling the snake!"
Yang Su nodded: "I haven't had time to clear the palace yet, and I can't spare people around me now, so I'll bother a few people to do it first." β
"That's nature! The palace must ensure that no flaws are exposed, otherwise a decree will come down, and we will have to make a decision. β
The next step is to raise troops, and if they can not use them, who wants to do so?
Yang Su had to go back to the yamen to see Xie Peng.
When he walked out of the gate of the Shen family, he stopped and waved with Dongyang Bo and the others: "This time, thanks to the help of the general and the uncle, Changying returned safely."
"I have a marriage contract with Changying, and she has almost lost her life at the hands of murderers several times, and I will definitely have to get this justice back for her.
"The two of you offer advice and help Xiao Wang to stabilize the palace, please rest assured, from today on, Xiao Wang will also conspire with all loyal ministers and good men to advance and retreat."
Dongyang Bo and Rong Yin returned the salute together, and said: "The prince doesn't have to be polite, you are the royal blood who has told the world that the crown prince is immoral, and the throne is lived by virtuous people.
"The prince has always been kind-hearted, and I will also advise the prince, first be loyal and then be filial, in short, we have settled on your position!"
Yang Su said again: "The throne and the crown prince are second to me, the most important thing is not to let the loyal ministers and good generals be wronged, so that the courtiers who are still conscientiously loyal to the court are discouraged by the court, and the social peace of Daning still depends on everyone to maintain it." β
Dongyang Bo and Rong Yin looked at each other and nodded: "I will be ready to cooperate with the prince at any time!" β
The two compartments exchanged hearts, saluted each other again, and boarded the horse one after another.
Ling Yuan called Rong Yin: "Uncle Rong, wait, I'll be with you." β
Rong Yin knew that he had something to ask him for Ling Yan's business, so he waited for him again.
As soon as his eyes were raised, he saw a person slowly walking towards the side door, carrying a needlework basket on his arm, and two blue and black balls under his eye sockets.
"Let's go!"
Ling Yuan had just come out.
Rong Yin retracted his gaze and hit the street.
Xiuxiu saw the back of the person who didn't look back, and couldn't help but stand under the eaves.
Changying, who stopped behind her at some point, said, "Why didn't you say hello just now?" β
Xiuxiu carried the basket, glanced at her, and turned to leave.
Chang Yingmu sent her in the door, stood down, and walked out quickly.
The target was Fu Rong, and she couldn't wait for a moment.
Shaoqing has already left Beijing, in order to avoid the suspicion of the enemy, she has to fabricate a reason for him to leave as soon as possible, otherwise it will easily arouse the suspicion of the other party.
However, with the incident last night, it is not too difficult to find the cause of his illness caused by his anger.
It takes at least one or twenty days to go to Huizhou for two thousand miles, and it will take at least one or twenty days to travel back and forth, and it will be possible to come back in a few months, which means that it will take at least a month to determine Yang Su's life experience - it doesn't matter, as long as you protect the safety of the Huo family during this period, it will be considered a harvest.
But what they could think of, the emperor may not have imagined, after Yang Su and Xie Peng sorted out the palace, they had to speed up the manpower to escort the family as soon as possible, so as not to attack the Huo family first.
She hurried to the yamen, first approved the fake book for Shaoqing, and then found Cheng Chun.
Cheng Chun sat on the stone pier under the palace wall with his head bowed, his back extremely depressed.
"Haven't you heard from Liu Bing yet?" Changying walked over and asked.
Cheng Chun was alarmed, stood up, and his gloomy eyes were like ashes after a charcoal fire burned out: "No." I don't think I'll be left alive anymore. β
Changying actually didn't have any hope anymore, not to mention the circumstances under which Liu Bing confided in the fifth master about the secret of how they were connected, she couldn't guess.
"Don't you have to rest?" Cheng Chun cheered up and asked her.
Changying moved his steps and said, "Has Fu Shizi ever come to our guard in the past two days?" β
