Chapter 3: Victory
On the last night of the festival, the fire was still burning without warning, and thick smoke was billowing out.
When the eldest princess's close aunt knocked on the door, Su Wanning turned to look at Qingzhu and asked, "Have you done everything you have done?" ”
Qingzhu nodded heavily.
After receiving an affirmative reply, Su Wanning opened the door wide and looked at the visitor with a smile.
"Aunt Froststain is here to check Ning'er's schoolwork? I'm not lazy today. ”
As she spoke, she pointed to the scroll spread out on the table.
After hearing this, Frost Stain's heavy face soothed a lot.
"The eldest princess told Miss to go to Wanhua Garden, Miss will arrive later, don't talk back to the princess."
"Nature." Su Wan smiled, not aware of the appearance of the disaster, which made people worry about her innocence.
Frost Dye won't say much, the front leads the way.
Wanhua Garden is an extra-palace breeding place for tribute to precious flowers from all over the world, and the ladies and ladies of the capital will temporarily live here every year before and after the Flower Dynasty Festival.
After all, there is a rare opportunity, and most of the flowers and plants need to be transported back to suitable growth areas after the festival.
If the strange flowers sent by the families and literati from all over the Yan country are destroyed, it will not only arouse the anger of the public, and the arsonists will be criticized, but more seriously, some of the flower seedlings are peerless, and it is rare to see them.
The scene of the fire was full of ladies and ladies of various families, all of whom looked tired and walked in the water late at night, and they had nothing to do with themselves but also felt unlucky.
Those who have good deeds look at the crowd with their eyes dripping, as if they can really catch a thief.
"Mother, Wanning is late." Su Wanning saluted to the eldest princess of Qingyun who was in front of the crowd without saying a word.
"Can this matter concern you?" Qingyun held back his anger, but lowered his voice.
Someone who heard it close immediately whispered a private conversation, and their eyes converged on Su Wanning.
Su Wanning saw that Li Aodie, the third lady of the Li family, stood pitifully first, faintly forming an opposition to her, and her heart was a little relieved.
Obviously, it was the wicked who sued first.
"What does Mother mean? Ning Er didn't know. Su Wanning stood still.
Li Aodie really couldn't help it, and directly splashed dirty water.
Miss Su quarreled with her sister during the day, and mentioned green plum wine between words. Who would have thought that when it was time to eat in the evening, the dozens of jars of wine brought from the yard were gone, and my sister's face was also colorful. ”
Su Wanning secretly said ingeniously, this Miss Li Family's third lady's kung fu is really superb, she didn't mention that she was not, but she pointed out that she was the culprit, and injured Miss Li Family.
The fire was fueled by alcohol, and it burned fiercely. The smell of alcohol under the burning tree is so strong that a slight pause for tea can dye the whole body of alcohol.
No matter how great Ren Su Wanning's ability is, she can't prove herself, and she didn't drink.
"I heard that Miss Su is a good wine, but today there is really a mess."
"It's just that I have a strong backer, so I can bully the weak at will, but I can't spare her."
……
Three women in one play, not to mention the winners in the backyards of various mansions who are qualified to participate in the Flower Dynasty Festival.
Su Wanning will not be severely punished today, and she will have to take off a layer of skin.
With the "evidence" so obvious, Su Wanning was even less flustered, she glanced at her mother who was out of the way, and her heart felt like she had been pricked by a bee venom needle, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Third Miss's words are wrong, and you have never seen a thief do it with your own eyes, so you must not convict Sister Dongling at will." Su Wanning did not follow the normal train of thought to refute.
"Poof......" The ladies and ladies all laughed, could it be that this Miss Su family was really drunk, and she had to say that the white was black.
The cold cheeks of the eldest princess of Qingyun were also slightly moved.
"What nonsense is Miss Su, my second sister didn't go out at night. Someone saw you here in the evening! Li Aodie was so angry that she somewhat understood the situation of the second sister during the day.
"Why does Miss Li San spew blood and mention my personal affair with Miss Er. Everyone should ask Miss Li Er why there is a dispute, but the Li family is not responsible. Now the ability to frame people is not bad. Su Wanning deliberately said in a tone that was neither big nor small, and most of the audience could hear it.
Li Aodie's heart was already weak, and her expression began to panic, "It's understandable that Miss Su doesn't dare to admit it, after all, the sin of destroying thousands of flowers and plants in Wanhua Garden is not easy to bear!" ”
"Oh? Miss Li saw the destruction of flowers with her own eyes? Su Wanning asked quickly.
"Of course." Li Aodie deliberately kicked over a few flower pots by the door in order to make the scene look chaotic.
"Then I want to ask the third lady, why don't you protect those precious flowers immediately, but you have been chasing me here? Isn't it, Miss thinks that the bigger the fire, the better, so that the greater the guilt that will be pushed on me? ”
Everyone realized it later, and they were worried about the current status of the flowers in the garden, and whether they would have eyes to watch next year.
Li Aodie saw that she couldn't say anything about Su Wanning, and her sharp eyes immediately caught the dirt on the other party's sleeve, stepped forward quickly, and held it high.
"Look, here's the proof! The red mud on Miss Su's sleeve is not the unique flower fertilizer of Wanhua Garden! ”
Su Wanning smiled silently, letting her entangle.
Just when everyone thought that the arson case had been solved, Aunt Songyue, the female official of Wanhua Garden, walked out and scolded: "Stop, why is Miss Li making a lot of noise!" ”
Li Aodie looked at Aunt Songyue in disbelief, shouldn't she be angry at the "arsonist", she forced a smile and said: "Auntie, where did you start with this, I found out the real culprit for you." The destruction of flowers and plants was Su Wanning's ghost. ”
"I think Miss Li San has eaten too much wine tonight, and she is talking nonsense. Miss Su stargazed tonight and found that it had been raining recently, so she specially consulted a florist and built a rain shelter to surround the flowers tightly. This allowed the flowers in the garden to escape the smoke. Songyue couldn't stand it, and told the facts together.
"The few pots near the door, obviously ......" Li Aodie didn't believe that Su Wanning was so lucky.
"Obviously? Hum! Aunt Songyue sneered, "Miss Li San, the old man originally wanted to leave you a little thin face, but she didn't want to find out." Have you forgotten what you did? Sneakily ran to Wanhua Garden and kicked over a few pots of abandoned dry grass, not to mention, after leaving, a fire broke out. Shouldn't you know better what happened? ”
Su Wanning watched this farce end with satisfaction, she did have the intention of catching a thief before, and deliberately left enough time for Aunt Songyue to find out what Li Aodie was doing.
"Yikes! Isn't this the pearl hairpin of the girl of the Li Mansion? Su Wanning bent down and shook it from the fire, dipped the green bean hairpin that had been hidden in the muddy water mixed with ashes, and calmly handed it to Aunt Songyue.
This is not to blame her, if Miss Li didn't have the intention of harming others, she wouldn't use this thing to sit down.
All the noble girls knew the origin of the green bean hairpin and secretly pursed their lips and smiled, the girl of the Li family was jealous, not to mention, her behavior was still so unacceptable, and her reputation was completely bad from tonight.
On the other hand, Su Wanning is not afraid of danger, and she has the heroic spirit of a loyal uncle.
Aunt Songyue took care of the flowers and herbs, and immediately said in front of everyone: "The Li family has been removed from the list of flowers for the Flower Dynasty Festival from now on, and eternal life is not allowed to take another step." Tonight, please ask the ladies and ladies of the Li family to leave by themselves! ”
Mrs. Li couldn't hold her face and left quietly a long time ago.
Li Aodie's eyes were wrapped in tears, and she covered her face and ran away.
Afterwards, Su Wanning did good things to the end and insisted on staying in Wanhua Garden to clean up the mess. The incident is also because of her, and now thousands of pots of flowers have to be transferred to other places, and she is also partly responsible.
Who knew that there was a person in the garden who thought the same as her.
I saw a man in a dark robe roll up his sleeves, tie up his hair, and carefully place the flower pot in the carriage, ready to move.
"Aunt Songyue, who is that person? I've never seen it before. Su Wanning was a little curious for a while, but this person's back was too familiar, so she blurted out a question.
Song Yue thought it was Su Wanning's youngest daughter's thoughts, and looked back and forth between the two of them with kind eyes, "He's a nymphomaniac." There is a clear stream faction in the family, and his surname is Lu Jiarong. ”
"Lu Jiarong!"
