Chapter 42: Perjury?

When Su Zhan's treatment ended, Su Yunlai's injuries were also healed, and Su Zhan was kicked out of the door by the ghost doctor, and his attitude was extremely bad.

Third Young Master Su, who has always given people deflated, finally has someone to treat him, no matter what kind of treatment, he is cured.

Su Zhan respectfully bowed to the gate three times before going down the mountain, but what Su Zhan didn't know was that the abbot of Fahua Temple turned around and brought a letter to Su Yunlai, which was written by the ghost doctor.

"I can only save him once, and next time if he is poisoned again, I won't save him!"

Such a sentence made Su Yunlai's face change suddenly, Su Zhan was poisoned!

Su Yunlai's expression was grim, Su Zhan had never left the Su Mansion since he was a child, and the person who would poison him was undoubtedly the person in the mansion, she squeezed the letter tightly, and the anger in her heart could no longer be contained.

Suddenly, Jun Yao walked in from outside: "Miss, the fifth lady has come to see you." ”

Su Yun came back to his senses, put away the letter in his hand, and then returned to normal, and the fifth wife followed Jun Yao in, and shouted when she saw Su Yunlai.

"Ouch, Ah Wan, are you alright? I heard that there was a fire in the Hokke Temple, and you were trapped inside, but it scared the hell out of us! Your grandmother is still clamoring to come to see you in person, so we finally persuaded it, let the fifth aunt take a look, but is it hurt? The fifth lady looked at Su Yunlai with a concerned expression.

The fifth wife is not alone, and she is still with her daughter Su Yunfei.

"Yes, Seventh Sister, you are so brave! With such a big fire, you dare to save the princess, if you were me, you would be scared to death! Su Yunfei said with a look of adoration.

Su Yunlai smiled shyly: "Fifth aunt, sixth sister, you have won the award, but it just coincides, but the princess has to take it seriously!" ”

"Hey, how can you say that!" The fifth lady said with a look of disgust: "The princess said that you saved her, that is, you saved her, and this is your deserved blessing!" How can it be pushed out! ”

Su Yunlai smiled shyly, and the fifth lady took her hand and said with a loving face: "Good boy, you must be frightened this time, the fifth aunt has brought a lot of good medicinal materials, all of which are here to replenish your body!" ”

"Thank you, Aunt Five!" Su Yunlai smiled gratefully.

The fifth lady looked around, and then asked casually, "Ah Wan, hasn't the princess come to see you on weekdays?" Isn't she still living in Fahua Temple? ”

"The princess is busy, why does she come to see me every day? This time, I just pushed the princess with my hand, and the princess was generous, so she said that she was a life-saver, but she was just talking. Su Yunlai said humbly.

The fifth lady sighed, her expression paled, but she still said: "Then Ah Wan, you rest first, I will go to the kitchen to arrange for you to stew the tonic first, look at you, this is all thin!" ”

Su Yunlai hurriedly said: "Where do you dare to bother Aunt Five......

"It's okay, let your sixth sister talk to you." The fifth lady patted her hand soothingly, and then gave Su Yunfei a look.

Su Yunlai and Su Yunfei have something to talk about, Su Yunfei has always been asking, knocking on the side to ask if some princes have ever come over.

"Several princes are all men, and although they are cousins with Princess Wuyang, they are also different from men and women, so how can they come to visit in person? The sixth sister laughed. Su Yunlai said funny.

Su Yunfei's expression was obviously disappointed, and then she sighed: "Seventh sister, you rest first, I'll go and see my mother, how is the tonic going." ”

Su Yunlai nodded and watched her walk out.

Su Yunfei went to the back kitchen to look for the fifth wife, and as soon as the fifth wife saw her, her face sank: "Didn't you say that you should accompany your seventh sister well?" She is now in the eyes of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I asked you to accompany your seventh sister, isn't it to be good friends with the princess? ”

Su Yunfei pursed her lips disdainfully: "Mother, I think the princess said that the life-saving benefactor is just a casual remark, it can't be true, I have been sitting for so long, the princess has never come to see her, and the relationship with the princess is not as good as she said!" ”

So what, but this is the only way they can catch up with the princess!

"You kid, why are you so breathless, go back to me quickly, where your seventh sister goes, you will follow you! Mother won't hurt you. Mrs. Fifth coaxed softly.

"I don't want it! Why should I be flattered and flattered by her?! Su Yunfei said with an unhappy face.

The fifth wife has another education for Su Yunfei, let's not talk about it for the time being.

As soon as Su Yunfei left, Su Yunlai called Jun Yao over and asked, "Did the fifth wife come by herself this time?" ”

"Miss Hui, the slave maid has inquired, this time the fifth master and the fifth wife came together, because the people from the criminal department have been investigating the clues of the arson case, and the master of the criminal department wants to ask, but it is not convenient for us to be female dependents, so the old lady asked the fifth master to come and deal with it." Jun Yao replied.

Su Yunlai frowned slightly, and then said to Jun Yao: "You quietly go to the Star Shadow Girl next to the princess and ask her to help pay attention to the movements of the Criminal Department." ”

Jun Yao nodded and responded, "Yes." ”

Among Mrs. Su's three biological sons, the eldest son is mediocre, the second son is messing around, only the third son, Su Zhikai, has some true inheritance of Mrs. Su's personality, and he is the best at drilling camps on weekdays.

Su Zhikai is now just a seven-grade petty official in an idle yamen in the capital, Su Yunlai knows that this is actually the result of Lin Zhengan's intervention, but even so, Su Zhikai is also a mixed up, in the previous life, he also used the marriage of Su Zhan and Du Yue'e to find a real shortage in the Ministry of Rites.

This time Su Zhikai will come to Fahua Temple, Su Yunlai doesn't believe that he will be unprofitable and can't afford to be early.

The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each branch.

After the arson case of Fahua Temple, many bigwigs who thought that they might be related to themselves began to ask each other in private, did they do it?

Among them, Chen Ge Lao was the most worried, because this incident was done by the unfilial descendants of his family.

Chen Ge is old, and the issue of family inheritance is also on the agenda, and the question of who will succeed the Chen family is also fighting to the death.

Chen Gelao's most favored youngest son, Chen Yi, wanted to take over the throne very strongly, so he came up with a good solution.

Recently, Chen Ge Lao was disgraced because of the Gu family's military power, Chen Yi wanted to help his father find the field, he didn't want to burn Princess Wuyang to death, he just thought, such a big fire, in case Princess Wuyang broke her appearance, or simply let his son ambush to save the beauty of a hero, then Princess Wuyang had to marry into the Chen family.

With Gu Yanshan's favor for his niece, he will definitely not let his nephew and son-in-law stay at home, and when the time comes, he will install an official position in the army, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?

Chen Yi thought very well, and let his son go to Fahua Temple in advance, but he didn't expect that the fire was magnified all of a sudden, and as soon as the young master of the Chen family saw that the fire was so big, he was instigated and ran away first.

After hearing this, Chen Ge Lao only felt that his brain was buzzing, and he almost lost his breath: "Are you stupid to be a person from the Gu family?" I don't know what your idea is? ”

Chen Yi was scolded, and lowered his head with an aggrieved face: "Son, my son also wants to share his father's worries with the four princes." ”

As soon as the fourth prince heard about the fire, he personally came to Chen's house to inquire about the news, and when he heard Chen Yi's words, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The fourth prince looked at Chen Ge Lao: "Grandfather, this matter must not be known to my father, if my father knows, I am afraid it will not be so simple." ”

Chen Ge Lao nodded, he thought more than the fourth prince, he looked at Chen Yi: "Have you dealt with the people who set the fire?" ”

"It's clean, it's clean, father rest assured, this little thing, my son can still do it." Chen Yi hurriedly said.

After Chen Ge became old-fashioned, he gradually calmed down, he nodded thoughtfully, and he looked at the fourth prince: "If this matter works well, maybe it will not be a bad thing, and maybe it will be a blessing in disguise." ”

The fourth prince had always been convinced by Chen Ge Lao, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked, "Grandfather, please speak." ”

"I remember you said before that there is a kid from the Su family who has been following you, what's your name?"

"Su Jie is the sister-in-law of the Su family's fifth room." The fourth prince said without hesitation.

"The one who saved the princess this time seems to be the girl of the Su family, right?" Chen Ge Lao said meaningfully, "This girl is really amazing, she can save the princess, that is a great creation." ”

The fourth prince looked at the scheming smile on the corner of Chen Ge's mouth, and his heart gradually settled down.

So, the next day, the fifth wife went to Fahua Temple to visit the sick.

After the arson case broke out, the pressure of the criminal department was huge, and I once wanted to throw this hot potato to Dali Temple, but Dali Temple is not used to carrying the black pot, and pushed it to the criminal department on the grounds that there were no casualties and deliberate murder, and the criminal department wanted to throw the pot to the Zongren Mansion, and the Zongren Mansion did not take the pot, and the arson was not the emperor's relatives, so you have to be careful when you speak!

The criminal department has no choice, so I had to check it with a bitter face, the emperor only gave five days, it is said that this is still the criminal department Shangshu cried and made trouble in the emperor's begging, and now four days have passed, and the criminal department has not found anything at all, they found out that on the day of the crime, Chen Gelao's son came to Fahua Temple, but can this be said? Seeing that the time was getting more and more urgent, the people in the criminal department couldn't sit still.

The people in the criminal department are worried about grabbing their hair every day, and they can't tell the emperor, maybe this fire was set by your son, right? At this time, a small official suddenly said that what the emperor wanted was just an arsonist, just find him.

The emperor would do such a thing, nothing more than to give an explanation to His Royal Highness the eldest grandson and the Gu family, and also to the people of the world, and whether this person is an arsonist or not, in fact, I believe that no one cares.

The more Fang Junbo, the left waiter of the Criminal Department in charge of this case, thought about it, the more he felt that this method was good, if it was really investigated, which prince would be involved, not to mention the black gauze hat, it was not even necessary to keep his head!

Since you want to find an arson culprit, you must do things satisfactorily, of course, you must find the certification of physical evidence and motives, so that the emperor can be convinced.

The physical evidence is easy to say, but the human evidence is afraid that it is a little difficult, this person's identity cannot be low, the identity is low, and the words have no weight, no one believes it, and finally Fang Junbo set his eyes on Su Yunlai.

Su Yunlai is a victim of arson, and he was born in the Su family, his identity is enough, and what he said is convincing enough, and she is the life-saving benefactor of Princess Wuyang, there is simply no one more suitable for doing this than her!

But Su Yunlai is a female dependent, the Su family is also a scholarly family, and she is also the life-saving benefactor of Princess Wuyang, so it is not good to ask questions with great fanfare, at this time, Su Zhikai came.

Fang Junbo personally met with Su Zhikai, and Su Zhikai was flattered.

"The young lady of the Su family is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows, this time she saved Her Royal Highness the princess, and even the queen mother praised her, which is also a blessing for your Su family." Fang Junbo said with a smile.

"The adult has won the prize, which is a coincidence." Su Zhikai said humbly.

"Master Su doesn't have to be so nervous, I came here this time to be on official business, alas, those who don't know outside here are all envious of our group of officials, but what's so good about being an official, to satisfy the superiors, but also to satisfy the people, a little bit of the pool, and then complain, but who knows our suffering? Investigating the case day and night, tracking down the real culprit, isn't it just to give the emperor an explanation! Fang Junbo said bitterly.

Su Zhikai was a little foggy when he heard this, so he had to laugh on the side.

"Finally, the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and the suspect in the arson case has a little eyebrows, and he can be regarded as worthy of the emperor's hard work, but this matter still needs to be identified by Miss Su." When Fang Junbo said this, he met Su Zhikai's eyes, and he had a deep meaning: "Does Master Fang understand?" ”

Su Zhikai was slightly stunned, and before he could think about the deep meaning in his words, Fang Junbo said meaningfully: "Miss Su saved Her Royal Highness the princess, this is a great husband and wife, this blessing, you have to use it right, if you use it wrong, it will be wasted." After a pause, he said again: "Master Su is a smart person, so he shouldn't waste it." ”

The fifth lady went to see Su Yunlai again, and first expressed her concern before talking about the purpose, "Ah Wan, there is one thing, the fifth aunt wants to discuss with you." ”

"Fifth aunt, please speak."

"The people in the Criminal Department have been investigating the arson case, and now, I finally caught an arsonist, and the adults of the Criminal Department mean that I want you to help identify it." Mrs. Fifth looked at her and said softly.

Su Yunlai raised his eyebrows: "But, I didn't see who set the fire at all?" ”

The fifth wife was a little anxious: "Hey, you kid, why don't you know how to be flexible, what if you don't see it, the adults in the criminal department will still make mistakes?" When the time comes, you will say that you look like him, close the case, and give an explanation to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the adults in the Criminal Department will not forget the good of our Su family, what do you think? After a pause, she said: "This is actually what your grandmother meant, since you can get into the eyes of the princess, it is also the blessing of our entire Su family." ”

Su Yunlai immediately understood, this is a consensus reached between the fifth master and the people of the Criminal Department, the people of the Criminal Department can't find the suspect, and it is not easy to make a difference, so he has to find a substitute for the ghost, and he is afraid that it will not be convincing, so he wants to let her, the victim, do perjury!

I'm afraid that the people in the fifth room are going to get a lot of benefits, right?

The corners of Su Yunlai's mouth hooked up a cold smile, the fifth master's abacus was good, but he didn't think about whether he had the life to enjoy this benefit.

Su Yunlai nodded: "I understand what the fifth aunt means." ”

The fifth wife thought that she had agreed, so she immediately smiled and patted her hand and said, "I know that Ah Wan is a smart child, but there are some things, the fifth aunt still has to tell you, this matter is very important, you must not be sloppy." ”

Then the fifth wife taught Su Yunlai how to reply, how to say that he recognized the arsonist, Su Yunlai listened, and had to admire the thoughtfulness of the people in the criminal department.

Soon, Fang Junbo brought the suspect to identify Su Yunlai, Su Yunlai did not show up, through a screen, but before Fang Junbo could speak, Princess Wuyang suddenly came.

Fang Junbo's cold sweat came down, how did this living ancestor come.

"I heard that you caught the arsonist, so come and see, I want to see who this man is who is going to burn me!" Princess Wuyang sat down on the chair with a big swing and then didn't leave.

Fang Junbo wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Miss Su has already identified it, and it was this person who set the fire." ”

"Su Yun is coming?" Princess Wuyang raised her eyebrows: "But when the fire was on fire, she was with me, and I didn't see anyone setting the fire, so she saw it?" Can she be stronger than Princess Ben? I'm going to ask her! ”

Princess Wuyang stood up and went to find Su Yunlai, Su Yunlai smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Princess, I was with you that day, and you have seen everything I have seen." ”

If you haven't seen it, she won't be able to see it.

Princess Wuyang nodded with satisfaction and looked at Fang Junbo: "You heard it, if you have time, hurry up and arrest the suspect!" It's useless for you to look for her. ”

Princess Wuyang said, and looked at the 'suspect' who was pressed to the ground by the official, and this suspect was tortured and was already half dead.

"Yo, there's still a breath of air, you didn't fool me with a dead man." Princess Wuyang said mockingly, and walked away.

Fang Junbo glanced at Su Zhikai coldly, obviously holding a grudge against him.

Li Daitao's stiff matter was stirred up by Princess Wuyang, and the fifth wife was angry, so let people find out who was going to report to the princess.

"Later, Jun Yao went to the princess's courtyard, and there were not many people who came out this time, so we couldn't find too many."

The fifth wife was angry, she didn't expect Su Yun to come with her, so without saying a word, she took someone to Su Yun to settle the account.

"Ah Wan, although I am your aunt, I also think that I treat you well, and I treat you and Fei'er the same, but what are you doing today? You obviously promised me, why do you want to go back on it temporarily? Mrs. Fifth asked angrily.

Su Yunlai was not in a hurry, she raised her head and looked at the fifth wife: "I don't understand what the fifth aunt said, what did I promise you?" ”

The fifth wife choked, thinking of yesterday's conversation, Su Yunlai really didn't promise him anything!

Su Zhan walked in with an iron face at this time, he had just finished receiving treatment, and his face was still abnormally pale, and he forced his anger to the fifth wife and said angrily: "Fifth aunt, you have to climb the high branches yourself, don't pull Ah Wan!" Do you dare to give perjury to people in the criminal department? Do you know that the person that Lord Fang brought over for Ah Wan to identify today was actually the person from the second prince? ”

The fifth lady was stunned: "What did you say?" ”

These five wives didn't know, and it was impossible for Fang Junbo to tell them too many details.

Su Zhan looked at her with mocking eyes and cold: "If you don't know anything, you dare to learn from others to Xiao Xiang's dragon skills?" Don't let your family die when you kill you, and you don't know how you died! ”

The fifth lady's face turned pale, "You, you are talking nonsense!" ”

"Am I talking nonsense? The origin of this fire is unknown, but it must have been for Princess Wuyang! The emperor's birthday is approaching, and several princes have sharpened their heads, wanting to stand out in front of the emperor, such a thing, others can't hide it! You're good, you have to go up and die! Su Zhan said unceremoniously.

The fifth lady was frightened by his momentum, and she didn't think much about it anymore, and hurriedly went back to discuss with the fifth master.

After Su Zhan went down the mountain, he learned that Su Yunlai was almost burned to death in Fahua Temple in order to seek medical treatment for him, and before he could react, he heard about the stupid things that the fifth wife and the fifth master had done, and immediately came to protect his sister.

"In the past few days since I went up the mountain, it seems that the outside life is very exciting, and it is arson again, and I heard that Princess Wuyang and Gu Junyan are going to get married? Which princes did it again this time? Su Zhan asked.

In the past, Third Young Master Su didn't care about these mundane things, but now I don't know if it's because of his good body, he is actually going down to earth.

Su Yunlai thought for a moment and then shook his head: "I think these two things are not from the same person's hands. ”

"How?" Su Zhan immediately asked.

"There are too many loopholes in arson, it is difficult to be unaware, and making such a big move in the capital will inevitably make some people unhappy...... their handwriting. ”

The person who plots for that position, who is not scheming, will not be so uncontrollable, on the contrary, if this matter is not done well, it may make the emperor disgusted and counterproductive.

If the matter can be solved with a fire, is the emperor still so worried?

"But the rumors are different, and it is obvious that someone is deliberately guiding public opinion." Su Yunlai frowned and said: "There was so much chaos in the fire that day, it was not clear at all, but someone made a fuss about this matter, and this person's methods were much more clever than the person who set the fire before." ”

"I've heard this guess from the young general and His Royal Highness the eldest grandson, saying that it may have been done by a certain prince." Su Zhan guessed: "Because the prince who benefits the most is the prince." ”

Su Yunlai's expression moved slightly: "Sure, is it really the prince?" ”

"What?"

Su Yunlai turned his head lightly: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about it, the people behind this scene didn't think that if public opinion really reached the point of being uncontrollable, how would the young general end if he had to marry Princess Wuyang?" ”

Or maybe that's what the man really wants.

Then the person who benefits the most is not the prince.
