Chapter 301: Good or not, I have the final say!
When Su Zhiyi met Su Dingqin's gaze, a fire broke out in her heart.
This idiot!
Why are you looking at her at this time?
Is it necessary for all three of them to go in?
"I……"
Su Dingqin thought about it again and again and felt that it didn't matter what he said. He went there for Su Zhiyi, to understand her nightmare and make her feel at ease.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Su Zhiyi said slowly: "Commander, my elder brother has made military achievements after all. When I fought with him at the border, he never killed anyone indiscriminately."
"I heard that those killers are unscrupulous and do not spare any men, women, old or young. I believe that Big Brother is not that kind of person."
"Brother was injured many times at the border, big and small, no less than ten times. Now that the injuries are still there, it is probably inappropriate to take him away for interrogation."
Yu Shengsheng also wanted to make a bet with himself whether Su Zhiyi would speak.
If she spoke up, it must be related to her.
As expected.
Her smile did not reach her eyes. These three siblings really did not disappoint her.
Su Dingqin just opened his mouth and suddenly closed it again, clenching his back teeth.
He looked at Su Zhiyi steadily with a complicated expression.
In Yu Shengsheng's opinion, it seemed a little weird.
Surprise, grief, and a bit of indescribable self-blame.
"As for my second brother, he is a talented man in the capital, highly regarded by the Crown Prince, and has a promising future. Why would he hire someone to harm his cousin? Even if he doesn't like it, he can just ignore it. Why would he risk his own future?"
"Besides, my second brother treats my cousin very well, so how can he hire someone to kill him?"
Fu Qingyin looked at Yu Shengsheng: "What did the princess say?"
Yu Shengsheng looked directly at Su Zhiyi: "As a vested interest holder, what qualifications do you have to speak for others?"
"Okay, it's up to me."
Su Zhiyi’s smile froze.
“Su Zhiyi,” Yu Shengsheng said word by word, “the person who has the least right to speak is you. You’d better not say anything.”
Su Zhiyi's breathing was slightly short: "I just don't want my brother to be wrongly accused, what's wrong with that..."
"Unjustly accused?" Fu Qingyin interrupted, "Think about it before you speak."
"Su Dingqin, it seems you don't want to talk anymore."
"In that case, take it away."
Su Dingqin took a few deep breaths, and when he was about to be pushed out, he turned around to look at Su Zhiyi.
"Ayi, I did this for you!"
Finally said it.
A smile flashed across Yu Shengsheng's eyes, while Su Zhiyi's eyes were full of resentment.
Fu Qingyin raised his nose and said, "Hmm?"
Hei Bai sneered, "Hey, what does this mean? You three siblings, go hand in hand?"
Su Huaiyuan asked in surprise: "Zhiyi, what's going on?"
Su Zhiyi looked pale and pitiful: "Father, I..."
As she spoke, she kept shaking her head and couldn't continue.
Fu Qingyin waved his hand and Su Dingqin was taken back.
"Speak now, my son."
"Dingqin, you should speak up. You are the eldest son of our Su family. This concerns the reputation of our family. You can't be confused. Speak up quickly."
Yu Shengsheng sneered silently. In Su Huaishan's eyes, there was only the face of the Su family.
Su Dingqin lowered his head and didn't look at Su Zhiyi: "I... that day, we were watching the parade outside the door together, and saw the scene of the prisoner kidnapping. Ah Yi said that she had dreamed of the prisoner kidnapper."
"She dreamed that the man killed her and she was very scared. I thought about helping her kill him and put an end to it all."
"That's why I wanted to find out what happened," Su Dingqin lowered his voice. "Someone wrote me a secret letter saying they knew where a gangster was hiding."
"What I said is true."
Yu Shengsheng was willing to believe that what he said at this moment was true.
She suddenly remembered why the bandit leader looked familiar when he took off his mask and revealed his true face.
She remembered that not long after she entered the mansion, she followed Su Yanshu to learn painting. She heard from the maids that Su Zhiyi could also paint, and was best at portraits.
She took a painting to find Su Zhiyi. Su Zhiyi was sitting at the desk at the time and quickly covered it with something at hand.
In the middle of the conversation, the wind picked up and blew up the covering paper. She glanced and saw that it was a man.
She didn't ask, but Su Zhiyi seemed to say unintentionally that to practice drawing portraits, one needs to get different books, look through different portraits, and copy them.
She didn't take it to heart at the time.
No wonder it looked familiar at the time. Now that I think about it, wasn’t the man in the painting the bandit leader?
Yu Shengsheng's heart skipped a beat and she glanced at Fu Qingyin.
Fu Qingyin noticed her gaze. Although he didn't know what it meant, he guessed that something was wrong, and it should be related to Su Zhiyi.
"Miss Su, do you agree with what Su Dingqin said?"
Su Zhiyi didn't want to recognize him, but Su Yanshu was there too, and the three of them were together, so how could he not recognize him?
She showed just the right amount of surprise and her eyes quickly turned red.
"Brother, you...you are actually doing this because of something I said carelessly? Why are you so confused?"
"It was just a dream. I was worried, so I told my brother about it. If I had known that he would act like this, I would have kept it to myself."
“Brother…”
She started crying before she finished.
This means that she did it unintentionally, while Su Dingqin did it on purpose.
You deserve it.
Su Dingqin felt uncomfortable. For the first time, he felt that Su Zhiyi didn't look so pitiful when she cried.
At that time, she was obviously scared and crying. She kept calling him "brother" and held his sleeves refusing to let go, as if she had to kill him.
Why do you say that now?
Su Dingqin wanted to refute, but then he suddenly thought of something and closed his mouth, turned his head to the side, and said no more.
"Commander, it's my fault. My elder brother didn't mean it. Can I go in his place?"
Fu Qingyin smiled but didn't say anything.
Hei Bai sneered: "What are you talking about? What is the Zhen Qu Tower? What is the law of this dynasty? You can change it if you want to?"
"Besides, whether you did it unintentionally or intentionally is still unclear."
Su Dingqin's heart sank: Instigation?
is that so?
His mind wavered, and for the first time he felt a little lost.
Yu Shengsheng bowed and said, "Commander, please arrange a good room for the young general. After all, he has military merits. When the emperor asks about it, the commander will be able to give an answer."
Su Dingqin tilted his head to look at her - was she speaking for him?
Of course Yu Shengsheng wasn't, Fu Qingyin could tell it was for him. She was afraid that he would be seen as a man who treated meritorious officials harshly in front of the emperor and be attacked by the censors.
Fu Qingyin was in a very good mood and nodded, "Okay."
He waved his hand again and was about to leave with the two brothers of the Su family.
Su Dingqin said loudly: "I have said everything I should say, why do you still need to..."
"Is there anything else you shouldn't say?" Hei Bai raised his voice, "Take him back and tell me!"
Su Dingqin: “…”
Before they reached the gate, they heard hurried footsteps and someone dismounted his horse and came in haste to report.
Yu Shengsheng recognized him at a glance: "Uncle Liang!"
Liang Bo strode in and greeted Yu Shengsheng: "Princess, it's bad, Liu Laosi ran away!"
Yu Shengsheng was surprised, Su Zhiyi's brows relaxed, and the fingers that were holding the wheelchair behind him also loosened.
Very good.
