Su Baitong was woken up by a noisy voice.
She opened her eyes, and the dryness of sleep deprivation lingered.
It wasn't until she took half a cup of tea from the table and washed her eyes that she felt better.
"Huixiang." She called.
Hui Xiang heard the sound and entered the door.
"What's so noisy?" Su Baitong asked, even if the business in the store is prosperous, it is impossible to make such a big noise.
Huixiang looked anxious. "It's the people of the government......"
Su Baitong calmly put on his clothes and cleaned his face, "But what happened?" ”
"I heard that one morning...... Someone found a human head on the street corner opposite our incense pavilion. Hui Xiang said as she helped her comb her hair.
"Head?"
Just mentioning this, Huixiang couldn't help but shudder, "Yes...... There is no body, only a head. ”
"Oh." Su Baitong sat firmly in front of the dressing mirror, and his expression did not even change.
Huixiang sighed secretly, she was afraid that she would scare Miss if she said it, but she didn't expect Miss to be even more daring than she imagined.
"Someone from the government asked about the surrounding shops, and some people said that they had seen this person last night, and he also asked others about the incense pavilion."
Su Baitong glanced at Huixiang from the mirror, "You mean that the person who died is Zhuang Yisheng?" ”
Huixiang's face turned white and nodded heavily.
Although she had not seen the head of the deceased either. I don't know if it's Zhuang Yisheng himself, but judging from the description of the government, it is very likely that it is him.
After finishing the dressing, Su Baitong took Huixiang to the front yard.
The captain of Suncheon Mansion has been waiting there for a long time.
When Su Baitong walked in, he found that Chen Zhinan was also sitting.
Haitang greeted him and whispered: "The government came suddenly, and the slave didn't want to alarm Miss, so she invited Chen Gongzi to come forward without authorization......
Su Baitong bowed slightly: "You did a good job." ”
Begonia's hanging heart was put down. She was afraid that Su Baitong would blame her for being troublesome and asserting her without permission.
Su Baitong stepped forward to greet the captain of Shuntian Mansion, that person had already communicated with Chen Zhinan just now, and before he came, he hadn't looked down on this spice shop in a quiet alley.
But I got into the store. Then look at the gold plaque hanging overhead...... Beads of sweat were faintly visible on the captain's head.
That's the Emperor's Imperial Plaque. Even if you put the whole of Kyoto together, you can't find a few of them.
There are a few imperial merchants in Kyoto, and they can be regarded as noble, but even they have never had such glory.
The lieutenant looked at the furnishings in the store again and again, it seemed ordinary, but everywhere it was elegant, and the guys and shopkeepers in the store were very stable, even if he led the people from the government to surround the door of the shop, he didn't see them panicking. Garbage in the sub-university.
The lieutenant faintly felt that Su Baitong's identity seemed to be unusual. So he got up and returned the salute.
Su Baitong first asked Huixiang to serve fragrant tea, and then began to ask about things.
Because Huixiang had already told her once before, the captain made it clear in a few words.
"So, I'm going to go with you to the government?" Su Baitong calmly looked directly at the Shuntianfu Lieutenant opposite.
“…… This, if it is inconvenient, you can let your shopkeeper do it for you first, but it is just to ask a question, and it won't take much time. "The captain originally wanted to come and take the shopkeeper of the Incense Pavilion to the official mansion, but now that he saw this situation, he immediately changed his mind.
"In that case, I'll take a trip with Miss Begonia." Chen Zhinan took the initiative to ask.
Su Baitong bowed slightly, "There can only be Lao Chen Gongzi." "Haitang is a girl's family, and she can't be allowed to follow these people to the government alone.
And Chen Zhinan accompanied him to have another advantage, he himself is a person in the government, and he is well versed in the rules of the government.
With him by his side, Begonia will not suffer.
Zhuang Yisheng was killed, and the news that there was only one head left soon spread, and the Su Mansion also got the news.
Wang's mother trotted all the way into the yard.
Xing had just finished serving Mrs. Su, and went back to the house to lie on the Luohan bed to rest, and asked the maid next to her to help her beat her legs.
"Madam, no, something happened to Mr. Zhuang!"
Xing sat up and said unhappily, "What's the matter, but what kind of trouble did Su Baitong make a fuss about?" ”
Yesterday, she asked people to instigate Zhuang Yisheng to go to the Incense Pavilion, and asked him to go under the pretext of sending things, thinking that if her nephew didn't come back today, she would send someone to find it, and directly shouted about last night's incident.
Let everyone else listen to it, how the eldest lady of Su Mansion refused to stay in the mansion in a good manner, and had to come out to follow the man for adultery.
Mother Wang ran out of breath and was full of panic, "Yes...... It's a human life! ”
Xing Shi looked at her with a puzzled expression, "What life?" ”
Mother Wang finally stabilized her mind, "It's Zhuang Gongzi, he was killed, and only one head remains...... Dumped on the street corner opposite the incense pavilion......"
Xing's whole body froze, and she stared blankly at Wang's mother's mouth, "You mean...... Zhuang Yisheng was killed by Su Baitong, that madman? ”
Mother Wang swallowed her saliva, "This...... The old slave didn't know, anyway, the government had now gone to the Incense Pavilion and wanted to take the eldest lady to interrogate. ”
"She must have done it...... It must be ......," Xing muttered to himself, ", she dared to do such a thing...... No, I'm going to tell the master quickly...... This girl can't stay any longer! ”
"Madam, the top priority now is to inform the Xing Mansion first." Wang's mother reminded.
Xing gradually calmed down, "That's right, you go...... Send someone to bring a message to my mother. ”
Even if Zhuang Yisheng is useless, but she is the son of Xing's distant cousin, if something happens to him, those distant relatives will definitely come to the door, not to mention the final result, those people will definitely take this opportunity to knock a hard stroke, maybe they will stay in Kyoto for a long time in the future to fight the autumn breeze.
Just thinking about these things made Xing's heart beat faster and he was sweating profusely.
Finally survived until the evening, Su Mingtang returned home, and as soon as Xing told him about it, Su Mingtang also broke out in a cold sweat.
"That girl actually killed someone?" Su Mingtang couldn't believe it.
"The poor nephew of the concubine...... I kindly went to deliver something to her, but I was killed by this madman, and even my body was gone, and a lonely head was thrown on the street, how hateful is this girl's heart...... Master, you have to be the master of the concubine, how can the nephew of the concubine die so for nothing...... He also has a father and a mother to raise, and he compares his heart to his heart, how can the concubine explain to his father and mother......"
Xing's crying was heartbreaking, and Su Mingtang also realized that this matter was a big problem.
He originally wanted to wait for a suitable opportunity to tell the emperor about the marriage, but now it seems that he is afraid that what his father said does have some truth, Su Baitong is a natural disaster, as long as she is there, there will be accidents in the house.
"Someone!" Su Mingtang shouted.
The steward entered the house, "What does the lord command?" ”
"You take some people to the Incense Pavilion to have a look, and if the eldest lady is here, bring her back to me."
"If the eldest lady refuses to come back...... the steward also knows that Su Baitong's temper is a little weird, and last time Xing asked people to invite him several times before he could move.
"Then go and tie her up for me!" Su Mingtang said angrily.
