Chapter 428, High Cabinet Deliberations

Su Ling'er sat on the side of Su Tong's bed, picked up the handkerchief left by Su Ting just now and wiped the blood on his face for him. Su Tong said: "Patriarch, I didn't eavesdrop. ”

Su Ling'er nodded and said, "I know, I didn't let you go, you won't go." But what is it all about?"

Su Tong took a breath and said with difficulty: "I was doing something near Qingfeng Tower, just passing by, but suddenly I was dizzy, and I didn't know anything." Later, it seemed that something hit me in the leg, and when I woke up, I found that I had been moved under the window of the Qingfeng Building. As soon as he stood up, he was detained by the guards who rushed to him. After that, he was taken to a prison and tortured. I have to tell if you instructed me. ”

Su Ling'er frowned and said, "Do you know who knocked you out?"

Su Tong said: "I was dizzy in an instant, and I didn't know anything." ”

"Is there any information about Sujin. Did he make any moves during your detention. ”

Su Tong gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, he came the next day and asked me to explain it so that I would not suffer from flesh and skin." But don't say that there is no such thing, even if there is, I will never be able to say it. After that, their torture became even more severe. ”

Su Ling'er clenched her fists tightly and said, "They are going to bend and make a move! It's too much! Su Tong, you take care of your injuries, I will definitely solve this matter for you and give you justice." ”

Su Tong said: "Patriarch, you have to be careful, they seem to be targeting you, I don't know what the specifics are, but the spearhead is definitely aimed at you." ”

Su Ling'er nodded and said, "I know, you have a good rest, you don't care about these things for now." So saying, he got up and went out. When the door was opened, Su Ting was still guarding outside, and Su Ling'er said, "Ting'er, don't be too sad." I've got a sense of measure in your brother's affairs. Don't worry, leave it to me. During this time, all your duties have been readjusted, and you take good care of him. Oh yes, I've got some good medicine for wounds, and I'll send it to you later. ”

Su Ting nodded, and said, "Thank you, patriarch." ”

Su Linger said: "Then I'll go." ”

Su Ling'er slowly walked down the trestle, and saw Su Ting return to the hut, and then walked towards the old pavilion. Since they returned from the Phantom Beast Forest, everyone had already tacitly accepted that she was the new patriarch, and Su Ling'er was very resistant to this title at first, but later found out that in this new environment. Almost every peer has their own power, just strong and weak, here, you have to be tough, this title of patriarch can actually bring her a lot of convenience. Not only can it unite people's hearts, but it also makes them feel that the Wood Spirit Immortal Clan who came back from the Phantom Beast Forest still has a leadership center, and this collective has not dispersed. Their unity is also in a certain way, and others will not underestimate it.

The Senator's Pavilion is the highest point of the city, at the top of the thickest tree, but Su Linger frequents here, so it can be regarded as a familiar road. It didn't take long to arrive outside the Pavilion of the Senators, and Su Ling'er found that Liu Gu was still wandering outside and had not entered. She approached and said, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm acting above board, you want to go to the three patriarchs to seek justice, of course I have to go with you, otherwise I arrived early, and you don't know what I said, and then several patriarchs will have preconceived ideas and be unfair to you. ”

Su Ling'er snorted coldly and said, "I'm not afraid of shadows, even if you talk about it first, I don't care." ”

"Don't take advantage of your tongue here, I'm waiting for someone, let's go in. ”

Liu Gu walked in front, Su Ling'er was angry in her heart, and took a few steps abruptly, walking side by side with him, with a proud look of I don't want to fall behind you. Liu didn't care, and walked by himself. The Senator's Pavilion is the place where the Wood Spirit Immortal Clan decides things, so it is much larger than the ordinary treehouse. There are rows of seats in the Senate, about dozens of them, and the whole Senate is concave. There are three seats in the center of the Senate's Pavilion. But now the three seats are empty. There were only two of them in the entire Senate.

The two walked to the center of the Senate Pavilion and arched their hands: "I have seen three patriarchs." As soon as the words fell, I saw three gray-haired old men slowly appearing on the three seats. In the middle is the patriarch of the day, and around him should be the patriarch of the land and the patriarch of the people.

"What's the matter?" said the Celestial Patriarch.

Liu Gu turned sideways and said, "You say it first?"

Su Ling'er said: "Young Master Liu doesn't speak first, how dare I say it." Or you say it. ”

Liu Gu didn't say anything polite to her, and told Su Tong about what Su Tong had overheard their conversation in one breath. The three elders were a little surprised when they heard this, and they also seemed to be a little unconvinced. The Celestial Patriarch asked, "Ling'er, is what So'er said true?"

Su Ling'er arched his hand and said, "The three patriarchs, please be clear, Ling'er has never instructed his subordinates to do this. I've already asked. At this time, it is obvious that someone is planting a blame. ”

Liu Gu smiled and said: "Why do you want to blame you? What do you have to blame?"

Su Ling'er was speechless for a while, if she said that it was because someone wanted to keep her, she didn't want her to become the city lord of the Five Kingdoms. In this way, the spearhead was directly pointed at Su Jin, which would inevitably provoke people's rhetoric, and Liu Su would definitely say, "What ability do you have to be able to become this city lord, your strength, we all know that it is impossible to have any chance of winning." In that case, why bother. ”

The Celestial Patriarch said: "Ling'er, who wants to blame you?"

Su Ling'er said: "Ling'er doesn't dare to speculate, I only know that I have never done this matter, and I don't have much to say about the rebuttal, Ling'er believes that the Qing will clear itself." ”

The Celestial Patriarch said: "You want to come here to argue, but you have nothing to say, what do you want us to do?"

"Three patriarchs, when this happened, Ling'er was not there at all. Later, they abused lynching and wounded my men. That's when I realized that I really didn't have much to say. ”

Liu said: "This matter is wrong for us, and we are willing to be punished." ”

"Who else are we?" asked the Celestial Patriarch.

"It's Sujin. He was interrogating the clansman, but I didn't expect him to go a step too far. ”

The Patriarch of Heaven immediately said loudly, "Go and call Su Jin over!" The patriarch suddenly heard the voice of the two guards.

The Celestial Patriarch said, "Ling'er, you come with me." Immediately, the figure of the Celestial Patriarch disappeared from the seat. Su Ling'er walked towards a door, walked into the door, gently closed the door, and arrived in the courtyard. The Celestial Patriarch is already waiting among them. Seeing Su Ling'er coming, he turned around and said, "Whether this is true or not, you sue me." ”

Su Linger said: "It's exactly as I said. There is no lie. ”

The Celestial Patriarch let out a sigh of relief and said, "You can sue me now, who are you suspecting?"

Su Linger was silent for a long time and said, "Su Jin." ”

The Celestial Patriarch was very strange, "Su Jin has been pursuing you in every way, how could he blame you? ”

Su Ling'er said: "It's a big deal that he doesn't want me to leave Wood Spirit City, he doesn't want me to be the city lord." Today he also said to me, 'I will never let you out of my sight,' and I can figure out what that means. ”

The Heavenly Patriarch said: "But how does he know that if he doesn't interfere with you, you will definitely be able to become the lord of this city? Among the five major clans, our Wood Spirit Immortal Clan is weak, in fact, the chance of winning the championship is not great, why does Su Jin bother to do this, could it be that you are sure of victory?"

The Heavenly Patriarch's eyes looked at him as if he wanted to see through all the secrets on her body, Su Ling'er was a little frightened, but she still calmed down and said, "I don't know about this, maybe he has his own considerations." Maybe..."

"That's enough!" the Celestial Patriarch interrupted her words, his tone was a little tough, Su Ling'er hadn't gotten used to this tough attitude for a while, and her heart suddenly jumped wildly.

"Ling'er, how much else are you hiding from me, do you think I don't know what you're doing? But when I got to the door, I heard someone talking, and you didn't open the door for a long time. After opening the door, he said that he was sleeping. At that time, I felt that something was wrong, and when I entered the house, I felt a strong flow of spiritual energy, and it was not you. They were well hidden, and I don't know where they were, but they must have been in the room and never left. But you say your friend is a ferret and has left. That's when I knew you were lying, but you just didn't expose it. How do you know that you thought you were going to lie and bribe the guards, hmph, do you know that those two guards are my cronies?"

After hearing this, Su Ling'er's face suddenly changed, she was sweating profusely, and she quickly knelt down. The Celestial Patriarch said, "Now you know it's wrong?"

Su Ling'er kowtowed and said: "This matter is the expiration of Ling'er's term as the patriarch of the heavens, if you want to punish it, Ling'er has nothing to say." But this matter has nothing to do with Su Tong's matter. ”

The Patriarch of Heaven said: "Who is the ** person you see?, why is it so mysterious?"

Su Ling'er was silent, and the Heavenly Patriarch said: "I heard about it a few days ago, several human beings in the human world broke into the territory of the Golden Spirit Immortal Clan, and let go of the tree spirit sealed in the altar of the Spirit Tree on the Barren Hill, and guided the East Tree to fail to age. Those humans had already been captured and sent to Zhongling Prefecture, but they escaped on the way on the way, and now those humans have lost their traces, and the entire Golden Spirit Immortal Clan is looking for those humans. Calculate the time, the time you went out that day seems to have just coincided with this incident. Could it be..."

Su Ling'er suddenly raised her head, her face covered with beads of sweat. She's pretty much transparent now, what should she do now, is she dead? or...
