Xie's name is Xie Wanyan, she is the daughter of the second room of the Xie family, and she only married into the Su family the year before last. Because she is the granddaughter of the ancestor, she is very loved by the ancestor, and she is also exquisite in the house, and her popularity is very good.

At this moment, she pointed at Su Xian, "The old ancestor has always favored this person, and the concubine also respects him as the elder in the family, even if he repeatedly disobeys the rules, privately begging the old ancestor to empty the private treasury for him." But because the ancestor was biased, the concubine also pinched her nose and coaxed her eyes to help him fill in the account books. But who knew that this guy was so bold that he didn't agree with him, he was resentful, and he assassinated his ancestors. ”

Xie Shi said with hatred: "Your Highness, please bring to justice the person who killed my aunt and grandmother." Father-in-law, mother-in-law, you must show the Su clan and expel such a black-hearted and unfilial person from the Su family tree. ”

As soon as this statement came out.

Everyone in the Su family at the scene was full of consternation.

If others say so, it may still be questionable.

But who doesn't know that this Xie family is the niece and granddaughter of the old ancestor's mother's family, and she has always been favored by the old ancestor.

What she said is somewhat credible.

Wu Anbo's eyes trembled, and he looked at Su Xian: "Ninth brother, what Xie said is true?" Why did you assassinate your mother! ”

"It's just gibberish." Su Xian's face was inexplicable: "The money I spent in the house, where it is used, has been given to my mother, and my mother will not empty the private treasury for me, let alone others to settle the accounts for me." My mother is so kind and loving to me, how could I harm her old man. How can my brother listen to the words of others......"

"Who says it's one-sided?"

Xie Wanyan let people support him, knelt on the ground, and interrupted him with righteous words, "Your Highness, it was the concubine who saw it with her own eyes, Uncle Nine deliberately led the cat to the grass, led the old ancestor from the pavilion to the edge of the rockery, and took advantage of her old man's efforts to save the cat, and pushed her down the mountain from behind. The concubine witnessed this with her own eyes, her father-in-law and husband had not yet returned home, and the concubine was afraid that her uncle would find out and kill people, so she didn't dare to tell the truth. Now that the culprit has been caught, the concubine is willing to go to the yamen to testify! ”

She spoke conclusively, explained the details of the case clearly, and testified voluntarily.

None of those present did not believe.

Shen Lingxi was listening, and he was also surprised in his heart.

What Xie Wanyan said was almost exactly the same as what the old ancestor said when the murder occurred.

This means that either she is the murderer or she is an eyewitness.

If it is the former, she can't wait to jump out to testify this time, what is the difference between it and "self-explosion", unless she is sure that the evidence in this case is conclusive, there is absolutely no possibility of overturning the case.

If it's the latter......

How could she be so sure that the murderer was Su Xian?

There was a strange twist in this matter, which made Shen Lingxi turn his head to look at the old ancestor.

At this moment, the old ancestor had completely sunk his face, his brows were deeply frowned, and his cloudy eyes were rare when he looked at Xie Wanyan.

Not only her, but even Su Xian looked at Xie with a solemn face.

He didn't expect that his niece and daughter-in-law, whom he had rarely met a few times, would testify against him like this.

He turned his eyes again, and saw that his brother was also full of doubts about himself, and his heart was angry, so he simply closed his eyes, "In short, my mother is not my victim, and I have never let go of tiger skin money outside, no matter what you say, I will never admit this crime." ”

Today's various things have gone beyond Su Xian's understanding of human nature.

He is open-minded, and naturally he is not afraid of people's words, and those two sentences of defense are the best he can do for his reputation.

With his usual temperament, he would never argue with his niece and daughter-in-law about right and wrong in front of so many people.

Xie Shi seemed to have expected this situation, and with a whimper in his throat, he turned his face to the sky, and cried mournfully: "Grandma, you died unjustly!" How sad it would be if you had a spirit in heaven and saw your uncle do so much evil and not repent! ”

As he spoke, he burst into tears.

She wept so much that she burst into tears, and the ladies began to cry along.

The hall, which was still quiet just now, was crying in a blink of an eye, and it sounded a little more miserable than the mourning hall.

Su Xian stood straight and proudly in the hall, his eyes closed, his face without sadness or joy, completely unmoved.

It makes him even more indifferent and ruthless.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zeng wiped her tears and said to Chu Yan and Wu Anbo: "The Xie family should be frightened and faint several times in the past few days, so it is better to let Erlang send her back to rest first, and then come to the trial after she relaxes her mind." ”

Wu Anbo didn't dare to decide, and looked at Chu Yan hesitantly.

"It's fine." Chu Yan said coldly: "Now that the case is clear, there is only some physical evidence, which still needs to be verified, and when it is verified, the culprit will be escorted to Beiya and presented to the emperor for inspection." Mrs. will first take the female dependents back to settle down, and wait for the orphan summons. ”

The meaning of the words sounded like it had been confirmed by seven or eight points, and there was no doubt that Su Xian was the murderer.

The faces of the people were different.

Xie Shi was still crying so much that he almost fainted, and he didn't even slow down his crying.

Mrs. Zeng responded and asked the maids to help Xie Wanyan up, and then left with everyone.

Wu Anbo and his two sons stayed, and originally planned to work with the embroidered envoy to figure out the matter.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yan glanced at him and issued an order to evict the guest, "I am tired of Wu Anbo ordering someone to send the accounts in the house, and then call the people serving in the old ancestor's courtyard to the door to listen to the rumor, and then go to take care of the white affairs, and I will verify this matter." ”

Since he said this, Wu Anbo couldn't stay any longer, he waved his hand at his two sons and asked them to go first.

There are only two people left in this hall in Su Mansion who are he and Su Xian.

Wu Anbo's face changed from his previous questioning, and he glanced at Su Xian sharply.

Then, with a long sigh, he walked up to Chu Yan and saluted solemnly: "Your Highness, my brother is pure and kind in his heart, and he has been obsessed with Taoism since he was a child, he has never had that kind of worldly desire, so he will never do unrighteous and unfilial things for the sake of money." ”

"There must be something strange about this matter, and I also ask Your Highness to see what is going on and avenge your brother."

Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Shen Lingxi was also surprised.

She thought that Wu Anbo had fully believed the words of the ladies in the house.

"Da Lang has been careful since he was a child, and he saves me the most." The old ancestor came back to his senses from his thoughts, looked at Wu Anbo, and showed a look of relief on his face, "Their brother has a good relationship, and I will feel at ease with him in charge of the rebel." ”

As soon as the old ancestor finished saying this, Su Xian also opened his eyes and looked at Wu Anbo's gaze, which was a little complicated.

"Brother don't worry about me, I ......"

Wu Anbo waved his hand to interrupt him, his voice lowered, "I'm not for you, but for my mother." If you are wronged, imprisoned, or lose your life for it, it will be your mother who will be the saddest of all. Mother has broken her heart for you and me in her life, and I just want her to ...... It's just a safe walk. ”

The old ancestor nodded, and his withered hand wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and he was very moved by the words of the eldest son.

Even Su Xian's face, which has always been calm and square, is rarely a little moved.

He said softly and sincerely: "Brother, don't worry, no matter whether this case is investigated or not, I will ask the emperor for mercy and allow me to do more for my mother, and I will send her to the reincarnation path in a good life."

"I, I am the only closed disciple of the Qing Palace on Taiyi Mountain, the eighty-eighth generation of the head of the Ming Zhenzi, if you believe in my mana, I will never let you and your mother down."

Wu Anbo: ......

Ancestor:......

Shen Lingxi: ......
