Chapter 350: Substitute for the Dead, Unlucky
The people who were still fighting just now coughed lightly, each took a step back, and then turned around and blended into the crowd, they are not big fools, so they don't let others see the joke.
"Cut, it's not interesting, it's all gone." The man who coaxed just now saw that they stopped fighting, and the people from the criminal department over there had already walked away, and he felt that he was not lively and saw that he was also leaving.
The others also dispersed when they saw that there was no excitement.
An inconspicuous man in the crowd glanced at the street where the Punishment Department had disappeared, and then turned to leave.
Shuoshan of Yihong Mansion waited for a while, and waited until the people on the street were almost scattered, and then left through the back window with his baggage, and then quietly returned to the criminal department from the path.
Si Yunlan locked up the criminal department that brought people back and left them alone, which caught Lao Bustard and Begonia, who originally thought that he would interrogate them directly, and they had already figured out how to deal with her interrogation along the way, and they had already strung together some words, but who would have thought that he would actually give them this.
Si Yunlan just guessed that they would have such a mentality, so he deliberately hung them like this, after all, death is not terrible, what is terrible is the waiting before death comes.
I have to say that Si Yunlan's approach did play a certain role, although the bustard and Begonia were a little caught off guard by Si Yunlan's hand because they had been prepared, but the time was still short, and they could still bear it.
But the others are different, although this Yihong Mansion is their stronghold and intelligence center, but the people in Yihong Mansion are not all their people.
Yihong Mansion was bought by Jiang Ming from others under the planning of all parties, and there were many girls in Yihong Mansion when they bought it, and they left the original girls in the building because there was really no one, and secondly, it was to hide people's eyes.
After all, no one would have thought that as a stronghold, there would only be two spies here, Lao Bustard and Begonia.
Even if Yihong Mansion arouses the suspicion of others at that time, such as today, then as long as the two of them bite to death and don't say anything, others will definitely not have any evidence.
But it is precisely because of this that the other girls are not as calm as the bustard and the begonia, they are leaning on the door and laughing on weekdays, where have they ever seen such a big battle.
They subconsciously wanted to seek the bustard's advice.
"Mom, what the hell are they doing when they got us here? We have nothing to do with the Assassin, or you can tell them and let him go back, Mommy. Xiangping grabbed the old bustard's sleeve, looking frightened.
Others chimed in.
"yes, Mom, they're not going to let us go back, are they?"
"Mom, didn't you say that we have the support of a big official behind Yihong Mansion, he should save us, right?"
As for who this big official is, in fact, the girls have a guess in their hearts, that is, the guest of Begonia, Sun Chaoyuan, the head of the household.
Thinking like this, people can't help but look at the bustard and the begonia with expectant eyes.
How could the two of them not know their thoughts, but today's things may not be so simple, and both of them have an intuition in their hearts, that is, today's things may not be good.
The hearts of the old bustard and the begonia were also ready to die.
But in the end, after being together for so many years, the old bustard looked at the girls in front of him, and his face showed pity in his heart, but there was no more.
She is the lord's subordinate, so she will swear allegiance to the lord, and as for them, she can only say sorry.
Watching the bustard soothe the emotional girls, Begonia walked to the corner alone and sat down against the wall, and then looked up at the light spilling in from the window.
Speaking of Sun Chaoyuan, who was arrested from Haitang's room by the people of the Criminal Department today, he was a dignified household secretary, and he was pulled out of the room of the girl in Yihong Mansion in public, and he was naturally holding his breath in his heart.
But he could only endure it, after all, although the imperial court did not explicitly require officials not to engage in prostitution, but it was not good to say that this matter would have a bad reputation, and if the group of people in the imperial history or his opponents knew about it, they would definitely join him.
Although he covered his face when he came out of Yihong Courtyard at that time, he was not sure that no one recognized him, at least Si Yunlan, who he could be sure, definitely recognized himself.
Although this kind of thing can be regarded as a romantic affair for a man at best, he also doesn't want his affairs to become a topic of conversation for others after dinner.
Every time he went to Yihong Mansion before, he quietly passed through the back door, just for fear of attracting the attention of others, who would have thought that this time the car would overturn.
Naturally, he didn't have a way to crack it, otherwise Sun Chaoyuan wouldn't have scratched his head in the study, he regretted very much at the moment why he went there today, if he hadn't gone today, this wouldn't have happened.
Of course, this is not the most headache for him, the most headache for him is that the people from the Criminal Department actually arrested all the people in Yihong Courtyard.
Who in this capital doesn't know that this Yihong Courtyard belongs to his Sun Chaoyuan, he hung the Yihong Courtyard in his uncle's name for fame and some other reasons, but in fact, this Yihong Courtyard is his Sun Chaoyuan's!
Si Yunlan searched Yihong Courtyard in the name of catching assassins, and also took away all the people in Yihong Courtyard, he didn't believe that the group of delicate ladies in Yihong Mansion could have anything to do with assassins, in his opinion, this was more like a declaration of war against him.
He was surprised, but not too surprised.
After all, whether he is in the court with Si Yunlan or Li Su, he is not a faction, it is normal for them to suppress themselves, but normal is normal, and it is absolutely impossible for him to admit defeat like this.
Thinking about this, Sun Chaoyuan immediately picked up the brush and began to write the recital.
We have to say that Sun Chaoyuan, well, thinks a lot.
Si Yunlan didn't know that Sun Chaoyuan had already thought of himself as a traitorous villain who fabricated charges against him in order to cooperate with his party and government.
But I think that if he knew about it, he shouldn't be too angry with him, after all, in his opinion, Sun Chaoyuan was a substitute ghost prepared by Jiang Ming for himself, and he was also the kind of unconscious substitute ghost, unlucky.
Well, the two can be summed up, and that is pitiful.
As time passed, the people in Yihong Mansion who were locked up became more and more anxious, and they felt like they had a sword hanging over their heads, and they didn't know when this sword would fall.
I can only wait without any reason.
However, Si Yunlan didn't hang them all the time, he estimated that the time was almost up, so he asked people to go to the room to pick up people, he didn't designate someone to interrogate, just let one be brought out casually.
The officer and soldier in charge of the guard opened the door and directly called a person out, "You, come out." ”
Coincidentally, this person is Xiangping, Xiangping looked at the officers and soldiers pointing at her, her face was white and her legs were weak, if it wasn't for the sister next to her who helped her, she might have fallen directly to the ground.
When the officers and soldiers saw her like this, they didn't have much patience, so they came in directly and two people put her out.
After Xiangping was taken away, the door of the room was closed again, and everyone looked panicked, but for some reason, they subconsciously didn't dare to say more.
