Strange love across time and space
Chapter 160 Zhong Yi comes to the Su family
"Aunt, dear, I heard that Uncle Su was taken away by people from the Ministry of Punishment. Don't worry. I believe that someone must have framed Uncle Su!"
Jiang held Ding Xiang's hand with joy, "Thank you for trusting your Uncle Su so much. His Highness Prince Jin is already helping us find evidence. I believe your Uncle Su will be released soon."
Ding Xiang nodded, "My father also said that Uncle Su is an honest official and would not accept bribes. He is also trying his best to help find evidence. My father asked me to tell my aunt that at this time, we must not mess up the situation!"
Su Qing was moved, "Please ask Sister Xiangxiang to convey our gratitude to Doctor Ding when she returns."
Ding Xiang glared at Su Qing, "We are all one family, how can you thank us!"
"Okay, okay! I was wrong!" Su Qing smiled and pulled Ding Xiang to sit down.
At this time, Su Rui walked in quickly from outside. Ever since Su Qixuan's accident, Su Rui had taken a leave of absence from the Yamen. When he saw Ding Xiang when he entered, Su Rui was stunned for a moment and asked softly, "Why are you here?" ?”
Ding Xiang blushed, "I heard something happened to my uncle, so I came over to take a look."
Before Su Rui could say anything, Jiang asked Su Rui, "Why are you so anxious to come back? What happened?"
Su Rui said hurriedly, "I just went to the Ministry of Punishment to inquire. Ge Binghuai and several ministers jointly submitted a memorial to the emperor, asking the emperor to convict my father. However, the emperor said that this case was full of doubts, so he asked the Ministry of Punishment to investigate the case. His Royal Highness will supervise from the side!"
Jiang and Su Qing were relieved when they heard that King Jin was supervising. At least, King Jin would not let people from the Ministry of Punishment torture Su Qixuan.
At this moment, Butler Li walked in from the outside, followed by Prince Jin who looked serious. As soon as Prince Jin came in, everyone quickly bowed their knees and saluted. Prince Jin excused everyone and said, "My father asked me to assist the Ministry of Punishments in investigating. However, Mr. Zhang, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, is a person of the prince. I am worried that the prince and the queen will interfere with it. But please don’t worry, I will send people to keep an eye on Mr. Zhang’s whereabouts. If he really comes into contact with the prince’s people, then we will You need to be more energetic."
Everyone nodded, and everyone looked worried. Su Qing, Prince Jin, "Has your highness found any evidence that Ge Binghuai framed my father?"
King Jin shook his head, "The time is too short, not yet, but don't worry, County Master, my people are looking for it, and they will always find clues!"
Su Qing did not tell King Jin that Phantom had found the witness. She planned to hide the witness after Phantom brought the people back, and then catch Ge Binghuai off guard when the Ministry of Punishment began to hear the case.
King Jin said a few words to everyone and then left. Seeing King Jin leave, Ding Xiang also wanted to leave. Jiang and Su Rui wanted to keep her for lunch, but Ding Xiang refused to say anything, so Jiang had no choice but to ask Su Rui to send her off. She, Su Qing sighed in her heart, there were so many etiquette rules for women in ancient times. After getting married, she was afraid of being criticized even for a meal at her fiancé's house. In comparison, her modern soul seemed... A little too slutty.
Not long after lunch, Phantom took Zhong Yi into the Su Mansion through the back door. As soon as he entered the Su Mansion, Zhong Yi was shocked by the majestic scene in the manor. He thought that he was worthy of being a second-rank official and the emperor's relative. The title of Ning'an County Lord's mansion was so grand, which made me feel even more in awe.
After seeing Jiang, Su Qing and Su Rui, Zhong Yi only dared to glance at them and then bowed his head and knelt down. Jiang asked him to stand up and moved away the maids who were waiting in the room before questioning Zhong Yi. Zhong Yi told everyone exactly what he said to Phantom. After listening, everyone looked solemn. Su Rui slammed the table angrily, which shocked Zhong Yi. He thought that Master Su was angry with him. Ge Binghuai's people copied the notes and Su Qixuan was caught and wanted to kill him. He was so frightened that his hands hidden in his sleeves trembled slightly. In the end, Su Rui just said angrily, "There is no enmity between the Su family and the Ge family. Why is Ge Binghuai so vicious and trying to frame his father!"
He looked at Zhong Yi who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "In the next few days, the Ministry of Punishment will start hearing this case. Will Mr. Zhong be willing to testify for my father?"
Zhong Yi replied without hesitation, "The common people are willing!"
"But if you do this, you will offend Ge Binghuai and Empress Li, aren't you afraid that they will do you harm in the dark?" Su Rui asked.
"If I can clear Mr. Su's grievances, Ge Binghuai will naturally be demoted or even imprisoned for falsely accusing a court official. Empress Li's status in the palace will be greatly reduced. By then, they will not have the chance to deal with it. You're a fool!" Zhong Yi replied with his head lowered.
Su Rui nodded, "I hope you won't regret it when the time comes. If your testimony can lead to the acquittal of my father, the Su family will not only ignore your fault, but also give you a generous reward."
"Caomin thanked Master Su first. However, Caomin came to Beijing to testify for Mr. Su. Firstly, the guards of Ning'an County arrived in time and saved Caomin's life. Caomin is grateful for the Su family's life-saving grace. And there is another reason. When the grassroots heard that Mr. Su had been arrested, they felt deeply regretful and just wanted to make up for their mistakes, not for money."
"Mr. Zhong is not a treacherous person who has such intentions. Phantom, take Mr. Zhong down to rest first. Aunt Lin, you go and arrange a place for Mr. Zhong to stay," Jiang ordered.
After the others left, Jiang looked at Su Qing in confusion and asked, "How did you learn that Ge Binghuai sent someone to Yuzhou to copy his notes?"
Su Qing looked innocent, "My daughter doesn't know. She just asked Phantom to go to Ge Binghuai's house to inquire about the news and see if she could find some evidence. As a result, Phantom didn't come back all night. When she came back, she brought the witnesses back. Wait a minute. My daughter also wants to ask the Phantom."
Seeing Su Qing's innocent expression, Jiang and Su Rui felt that she didn't seem to be lying, so they believed her. But Su Rui asked again, "Yuzhou is five hundred miles away from here. It takes three days to come and go. Phantom went there last night. How come he brought people back so quickly?" Seeing Su Qing blinking. Staring at himself blankly, Su Rui stood up abruptly, "Qing Qing! The Phantom won't bring back a false witness, right?"
"How could it be! Phantom would never lie to me!" Su Qing defended Phantom without even thinking.
"Then tell me, how did he do it at this time?" Su Rui still didn't believe it.
"Of course, it's a fast horse, an eight-hundred-mile rush, right! It's an eight-hundred-mile rush! Brother, do you know what the eight-hundred-mile rush is? It means you can run eight hundred miles in one day. The Phantom is riding a good horse. Yuzhou, Yuzhou is only five hundred miles away from the capital. It must have arrived in less than a day. A thousand miles back and forth, one day and one night? Can the time be matched by changing horses but not people? ! The Phantom was afraid that coming back late would be detrimental to our father, so he didn't rest in the middle. You didn't see Zhong Yi's shabby look. It seemed like he was on the road without a good rest! Brother, when you ask this, do you doubt me or the Phantom? !" Su Qing became more and more confident as she spoke.
