Chapter 288 – Their Target
“I’ve been in the Cheng family for some years, almost as soon as I realized what I was doing, it’s at this point in time, don’t I understand that it’s the Cheng family that can really kill me?” Ju Ying said and wiped the blood coming out of her nose, crawled on her knees in front of Madam Cheng and hugged her legs, “Mistress! You spare the slave girl this time, the slave girl really didn’t mean it!”
“You bastard!”
Mrs. Cheng pushed her to the ground with both hands, tears seeping from the corners of her eyes. “My good daughter was victimized by her like this, and you still have the face to beg for forgiveness! –Miss Su,” she turned to Zhao Su: “I’m going to Shun Tian Fu, I want to instantly find out the murderer behind this and avenge my daughter!”
Zhao Su supported him with both hands, “Lady, hold on. There is no hurry, Shun Tian Fu side has already put the painting eyebrow they tried, only waiting for the Cheng family side to go to the person to close the case, you had better immediately notify Cheng adults, discussing how to deal with Ju Ying as well.”
Concerning Cheng Zhuyun’s reputation, Zhao Su can’t go along with the anger of her directly twisting Juying to the court, once there, Cheng Zhuyun this matter will surely be spread to everyone.
Mrs. Cheng wiped the corners of her eyes, calmed down, looked at her and nodded.
……
After leaving the Cheng family, Zhao Su’s mind had not stopped in the carriage.
Assuming that everything Ju Ying said was not a lie, then things should be run through like this: this person known as the third master aimed to strike at the Cheng family, he must have known about the marriage contract between the two Tang and Cheng families for a long time, and he approached Ju Ying, not to aim at Cheng Zhuyun, but to use Cheng Zhuyun to set up this plot.
“The person who defiled Cheng Zhuyun has wine breath, that can be initially presumed that he and the three masters are not a group of people, but at least it is also a part of the group of people who are counting on, because this whole thing, the lack of which step can not achieve such an effect today.
The person who is counting, and who will be?
The carriage stopped in the marquis house door.
Zhao Su step off the car, a figure from the outside directly rushed in: “Miss!”
Flower wanting to Rong cloaked in sweat to the front: “girl, a little bit of a brow, according to the Empress Dowager to give that list to check one by one, that night leasing out of the eleven boats, there are nine boats on the wine.” “More than halfway to leave the table.
“Midway to leave the table more than two quarters of eight people, these eight people have five people belong to the young and strong, have the conditions to commit the crime and control the Cheng girl does not make a sound of the children. And among these five people, there is a person who is most special, since that night, this person invited himself into the camp, has not returned home until now!”
“Who is this person?!”
Flower wanting to Rong deep inhale: “Go to the imperial mausoleum as a supervisor of the martial strategy general Wang Yin.”
“…… Imperial Tomb?”
“That’s right,” Hua Wanyong’s gaze was deep, “The defense of the Imperial Tomb, it is this Wang Yin who is in charge, and these days the Emperor’s trip to the Imperial Tomb is also by him in charge of security.”
Under her gaze, Zhao Su slowly pursed his lips.
The slanting sun of summer is as scorching, the top of her head already has sweat.
“Miss.” Hua Qianrong spoke slowly, “This matter seems to be very tricky.”
Zhao Su did not respond.
Silent stand half a long time, she looked at the past: “You on the suspicion of Wang Yin, is confident?”
“The clues from the empress dowager’s side have actually been very comprehensive, the scope is not big, I just need to put the list of people, according to their performance before and after the incident, one by one screening and verification is good. Not to say that in addition to Wang Yin no one has a suspicion, but Wang Yin is among the suspicion is particularly large that. Moreover, compared to this matter, the suspect is him, obviously more favorable to the murderer.”
Zhao Su clenched his teeth, stood still for a long time, she asked: “When will the emperor come back?”
“…… It’s not clear. It’s been three or four days since he went.”
Zhao Su looked at the direction of the sky, a pause, lifted the step and got on the carriage: “Follow me into the palace.”
“Yes.”
……
The slanting sun illuminated the palace city with golden wall splendor, the birds swept from the mid-air, and their wings pulled out a shadow on the ground.
Empress Lu sat on the terrace and sipped tea, watching Zhao Su walk from the end of the corridor to herself.
Zhao Su sat down on the soft couch at her gesture, and after looking at her, she composed herself, “Empress Dowager. Things are not good.”
Empress Dowager Lu’s pupils in the setting sun also took on a bit of a golden color.
“Tang Cheng’s two family’s relationship is basically clear, indeed there are people who are doing something from it, but the person who gave the medicine is not the one who laid hands on Cheng Zhuyun.” Zhao Su clenched his fist, “He did not personally do it, but probably made a plan within a plan, implicating the emperor.”
“The emperor?” Empress Lu narrowed her eyes slightly.
Zhao Su nodded: “Cheng Zhuyun said, towards her hands on the body of the person with the smell of alcohol, based on the premeditated crime is unlikely to leave the tail, so it can be presumed to belong to the accidental murder. Flowers want to find out, stationed at the mausoleum of the martial arts general Wang Yin, the suspicion is very big. He was drinking on the boat that day, and then the day after the Cheng family incident, he asked to go to the mausoleum garrison, has not returned home.”
Initially her speculation, but someone wants to provoke the Empress Dowager Lu around fans, to cut off her wings or weaken her power purpose. Until the flowers want to Rong said in the imperial mausoleum supervised the construction of the dynasty generals ……
Supervise the building of the imperial mausoleum regardless of whether it is the craftsmen or officials or generals, are not the most favorite one of the emperor, but for their own mansion, no emperor will casually deal with, so but where these people, but also certainly let the emperor to rest assured that the people.
Wang Yin as the governor general, he is also can let the emperor rest assured one.
Check to now, the only performance of special people is of course the biggest suspect, but when he is the royal mausoleum as a supervisor of the general, is the emperor trust people, especially the royal mausoleum at this moment is encountered in the underground palace collapse event, it is the need for people to monitor the time of defense, at this time, this person in the end to do or not to do?
Injury to their wings, after Lu Taifa in the sense of reason should be mending the sheep, from the strict disposal. But when this person is the emperor to use the person, do, then the emperor will not allow her to move the knife at the moment? Do not do, then surrounded by those people around the Empress Dowager Lu, such as Tang Cheng two families, will continue to support support?
Seemingly unrelated two things, suddenly so strung together, now resting on the fire is no longer baked Tang Cheng two families, but Lu dowager empress Dowager, it is easy to provoke Tang Cheng two families may not be the ultimate goal, the conspiracy straight to the point, should be to provoke the emperor and Lu dowager empress contradiction, so that Lu dowager empress forced on the dilemma of the position!
The twilight light in the garden of flowers and trees gradually deepened.
Empress Dowager Lu’s eyes also deepened to the point of turning black.
“In that case, it really is directed at me.”
Zhao Su looked up, “Is it possible that it was just directed at the Flower Moon Society?”
Empress Lu poured herself half a cup of tea and rested her elbows on her knees, raising her lips to look at the flowers and trees in her gaze, “There is no difference. The only thing I can be attacked for is the Flower Moon Society, attacking me is equal to attacking the Flower Moon Society, and attacking the Flower Moon Society is also equal to attacking me.”
