Chapter 214: Unbelief
At this time, the world believed in ghosts and gods very much, and it was easy not to dare to swear by the sky. As soon as Su Qingxue swore a poisonous oath, everyone believed it nine times out of ten.
Jiang didn't seem to believe it.
The people present, except for the person who calculated her, no one knew better than her why Su Qingyi would entangle her.
If it was a coincidence that Su Qingyi met her, maybe there would not be a third person, but since it was the maid in Tsing Yi who deliberately led her to the edge of Yuxia Lake, then Su Qingyi and others in Chaoyang Pavilion were undoubtedly arranged by someone.
As Yu Qi said, Su Qingyi is an idiot, and it is impossible for him to wait honestly in the pavilion, so someone must coax him to play in the pavilion.
Jiang Ru quietly looked at Su Qingxue, who swore to the sky, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly.
No matter how Su Qingxue argued, that person was the most likely to be Su Qingxue, and she didn't believe that the handkerchief that Su Qingxue said was blown by the wind unless she was stupid.
Master Su looked at the awe-inspiring concubine, sighed, turned his head to Zhen Shicheng and said, "That's it, the dog should have fallen into the water, and I bothered Lord Zhen to run away today." ”
Zhen Shicheng frowned and looked at Master Su.
He clearly sensed that the other party was unwilling to delve further, which was a common problem of many wealthy families.
For them, the truth is often less important than the face of the family.
Zhen Shicheng didn't plan to save face for Master Su.
If the Hou Mansion of Yining did not ask the government to intervene, of course he would not have come over to investigate the case when he was full, but since he was invited, he was asked to leave without finding out the truth, is this a intention to make him unable to sleep?
Anyone who wants to affect Lord Zhen's sleep will be treated mercilessly by Lord Zhen like a fallen leaf swept by the autumn wind.
"Who said that Ling Gongzi fell into the water?" Zhen Shicheng squinted and asked.
Master Su was stunned: "What does Master Zhen mean by this?" ”
Zhen Shicheng looked at Yu Jin: "Yu-"
After a little hesitation, Zhen Shicheng shouted: "Xiaoyu, you tell them." ”
He said that it was so troublesome for a prince to follow the investigation and even call the name, but fortunately, this seventh prince was more capable than he imagined, not the kind of straw bag that could only serve the shelf.
Unconsciously, Zhen Shicheng has recognized Yu Jin's performance today.
Yu Jin clearly felt that everyone's eyes fell on him, and one of the gazes made his heart jump a little, and he quickly forced himself to calm down.
He walked to the edge of Qixia Lake, stopped where Su Qingyi left his last two footprints, pointed to the ground and said, "I wonder if you can notice the traces here?" ”
Vestige?
Everyone was stunned by the question.
Yu Jin explained lightly: "The lake is damp, as long as people have been active here, they will definitely leave traces. ”
"You mean these footprints?" Master Su asked.
"Footprints are just one of them. You can imagine that if Su Er Gongzi fell into the water, there must be some traces of his slippery feet and sliding into the lake, but there is no here. What does this mean? Yu Jin threw the question to everyone, and said in a very affirmative tone without waiting for anyone to answer, "It means that he was abruptly pushed into the lake, so he didn't leave such traces." ”
Zhen Shicheng couldn't help but nodded.
Previously, when people were not paying attention, the Seventh Prince quietly mentioned this clue to him, which was really unexpected for him.
This unexpected joy does not specifically refer to the case of the Yining Marquis Mansion, but the Seventh Prince's experience in traces has given him an additional direction to solve the case in the future.
Traces are just as important as evidence.
Master Su frowned when he heard this: "This is just speculation-"
Yu Jin interrupted him with a sneer: "No, this is solid evidence left at the scene. Su Shizi thought that Ling Gongzi had fallen into the water, which was a baseless speculation. ”
Speaking of this, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he sneered: "I can't even talk about speculation." ”
Jiang seemed to look at Yu Jin's gaze deepened.
In her previous life, she was used to his sweet words and superb skills, but she never knew that he still had such insights in solving cases.
At this moment, Jiang seemed to be in a somewhat complicated mood.
She had always felt very well aware of each other, and now it seemed that it was so easy to fully understand a person.
Sensing the gaze cast, Yu Jin rolled his eyes slightly, and the sneer instantly softened.
Master Su's face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't hold back his anger and said, "Lord Zhen, your subordinates should still be properly restrained!" ”
Zhen Shicheng said solemnly: "Su Shizi rest assured, the official will definitely discipline him well." ”
It's just an empty promise, and it won't lose half a piece of meat anyway.
When Master Su heard Zhen Shicheng say this, he consciously saved a little face, and his face eased slightly.
Then a soft voice came: "I have a few words to say. ”
When everyone heard the voice, they saw Jiang seem to stand up.
"Fourth sister-" Jiang Yi couldn't help but shout, worried.
Jiang Zhan clasped his hands around his chest as if he didn't care about himself, and didn't make any moves to stop Jiang Zhan from coming forward.
Jiang Ergongzi thought very simply: there is nothing to stop, anyway, whoever wants to bully the fourth sister will just raise his fist and beat people.
Master Su looked at Jiang Yizhi and frowned: "Don't get involved in the affairs of adults." ”
Jiang Ru said solemnly: "Uncle, my niece was considered a murderer before, if I don't find out the real murderer and let the world speculate randomly, there will always be some people who will pull it on me." I don't want to get involved in the affairs of adults, but I am already in it, and I can't help myself. In that case, I am certainly qualified to say a few words, what do you say? ”
Master Su didn't expect that his niece, who was quiet in the past, would have such a big change now, so he took a deep look at her before saying, "What do you want to say?" ”
Jiang seemed to walk up to Su Qingxue and looked at her intently.
Su Qingxue had just breathed a sigh of relief, and her whole body tensed up when she saw this: "What are you going to do?" ”
"Second cousin, do you dare to swear again?"
"What?"
"There is no need to change anything else, but there is one place, the second cousin said that if the second cousin is killed by you, the sky will thunder, here I think it is too absolute, it is better to change it to the second cousin's death If it is related to the second cousin, the sky will thunder." Jiang seemed to say lightly.
Since someone was calculating her and wanted Su Qingyi to ruin her reputation, the next move of the person hiding in Chaoyang Pavilion would definitely be to attract others to break it, but the other party didn't expect her to get out so quickly.
It can be imagined that when she left in a hurry with Ah Man, Su Qingyi's most reasonable reaction was to return to Chaoyang Pavilion, because there were still people playing with him.
But Su Qingyi died.
Jiang seemed to be sure that Su Qingxue might not be the murderer who killed Su Qingyi, so he dared to swear poison by the sky, but it was impossible to say that she had nothing to do with Su Qingyi's death.
"Why doesn't the second cousin speak?"
Su Qingxue's face turned pale, and she sneered: "It's really funny, it seems that my cousin is not my parents, what qualifications do you have to ask me to renew my oath?" ”
Looking at the angry Su Qingxue, Jiang seemed to smile coldly: "It seems that the second cousin doesn't dare." ”
Su Qingxue bit her lip and glared at Jiang as if she couldn't help but shudder.
What did she know?
