Chapter 307 I am the knife in her hand
Fu Qingyin sat down on a chair in the corridor.
"What is your crime?"
Madam Zhou bowed her head and said, "I made wild vegetable dumplings. The commander is of noble status, how can he eat wild vegetables?"
"The old slave made a mistake."
Fu Qingyin laughed at himself.
A noble person? How noble was he? Others had forgotten his days as a beggar, but he had not.
"No need to do that, just bring it."
"yes."
Nanny Zhou picked up a few plump little buns, paired them with two plates of side dishes, added a few drops of sesame oil, placed them on a small table, and took them out.
The small buns are white and round, exuding fragrance. The side dishes on the side are green and juicy, and moist with sesame oil.
"Does she like this side dish too?"
"Yes, it was made by the young lady herself," said Madam Zhou with a smile, "The young lady is very clever and can create excellent taste with simple ingredients."
At this point, I can't help but feel a little distressed: "Poor young lady, you lived such a hard life in the past, and only with such ingredients, you can make different flavors."
Fu Qingyin took a bite of the bun in silence. The unique freshness of the wild vegetables mixed with the aroma of meat was indeed delicious.
Take a bite of the side dish, it is refreshing, fresh and crispy, and eaten with the meat bun, it is the best way to relieve greasiness. It is also a little spicy, and when mixed in the mouth, it tastes the best ever.
Fu Qingyin ate three meat buns in a row and finished the side dishes one bite at a time before putting them down.
This was the first time he had ever eaten so much outside.
"Last time, she made the chicken and flower cakes here?"
Madam Zhou nodded: "That's right."
Fu Qingyin stood up and walked to the flower bed in the yard and pinched a petal. Yes, it was this kind of flower.
His fingertips were stained with fragrance, and he said unintentionally: "Making flower desserts seems to be very troublesome."
"Indeed, the old servant and Miss Green Lake helped without stopping for a moment. The young lady was busy for more than three hours, and they bought the flower molds on the spot."
Fu Qingyin's eyes were filled with smiles. Even the molds had to be bought now? That meant he had never done it since coming to Beijing.
He was the first one.
"Do you know that Qi Mubai?"
Nanny Zhou was stunned and did not answer for a moment.
"Um?"
"Old slave... Old slave knows," Madam Zhou's heart trembled, and she dared not lie, "That dog..."
It was a close call. I almost ended up calling him "dog" like Leopard did.
"He is the top scholar, and everyone in the city knows it. He and the young lady are from the same hometown. When the young lady heard that he had a chance to get into the university, she was happy for him. But later, that guy was not only ungrateful, but also forced Sister Wu, the elder of the young lady's hometown, to death."
"From that time on, the young lady hated him to the core and no longer had any feelings for him as an old friend."
Fu Qingyin knew about this. He heard from Hao Mengye that it was Kong Dezhao who helped to make the Su family members surrender at the funeral.
Fu Qingyin suppressed the displeasure from Kong Dezhao and asked: "Hate it to the bone?"
"Of course, if he hadn't used such a dirty trick, the young lady would have taken us away long ago. How could she have been so angry and suffered so much? The young lady is really pitiful."
Fu Qingyin lowered her eyes and pinched another petal.
He said nothing more and turned and left.
Nanny Zhou was completely confused. She didn't know what he was doing here or why he was asking these questions.
When the young lady comes, I will report this to her.
…
Yu Shengsheng returned to the yard, thinking of Qi Mubai's appearance, and sat under the window for a long time without saying a word.
Jin Baobao was so angry that he wanted to hit someone in the yard.
"Miss, I'm going to beat that bastard up."
Yu Shengsheng shook her head: "No need, just stay in the mansion for the next few days and don't cause any trouble."
"We will be going to Hongyuan Temple in a few days. Right now, this matter is the most important."
Yu Shengsheng knew that if she couldn't prove that Su Zhiyi was the master and was related to the murder of the clan, then Liu Laosi and his son wouldn't be able to do anything to her. At most, it would prove that she was vicious and couldn't tolerate her "cousin."
But the fact is that no harm was caused, so what can we do?
At most, the Su family will see through Su Zhiyi, but since the Su family has always been biased towards others, it doesn't mean much.
Since it is useless, just put it aside for now and deal with it after we get through Hongyuan Temple.
Jin Baobao had no choice but to agree.
"Then I'll go get some food. I'll be back soon."
…
In Zhenqiao Tower, Su Yanshu and Su Dingqin were locked up together. This was Su Dingqin's second visit, but it was Su Yanshu's first.
It's eerie and dark here, the air smells different, and from time to time you can hear screams coming from the interrogation room, so heart-wrenching that it's creepy just to hear them.
Su Yanshu nervously leaned close to Su Dingqin, looking around in panic.
Since Su Dingqin came in, he has been sitting there without saying a word, his face gloomy and stiff, and no one knows what he is thinking.
Su Yanshu whispered, "Brother, what kind of punishment do you think they will use on us?"
Su Dingqin said nothing.
Su Yanshu glanced at him and said, "Brother, what are you thinking about?"
"Brother?"
Su Dingqin came back to his senses: "Do you believe that the painting was painted by Qi Mubai?"
Su Yanshu was stunned.
Su Dingqin stared at him: "I asked you something before, but you haven't told me yet. You know painting, can you tell who painted that?"
Su Yanshu was annoyed by his questions and didn't know whether he was annoyed with him or with himself.
"What's the point of asking this now? Didn't Qi Mubai say that he was the one who drew it?"
"I'm not asking Qi Mubai, I'm asking you."
Su Dingqin said angrily: "Can't you see it, or don't you want to say it?"
"I have no idea!"
"I don't know?" Su Dingqin sneered, "You are still known as a talented scholar in vain."
Su Yanshu was hurt: "Why are you laughing at me? You've been arrested too, so don't laugh at anyone else."
"I was arrested and I know why. It was because I listened to Su Zhiyi and felt sorry for her. I wanted to help her get rid of the person who killed her in her dream. That's why I made one wrong step after another."
"But does she really have a dream partner?"
Su Dingqin sneered: "Can you tell which of her words are true and which are false?"
Su Yanshu was surprised: "Brother, what do you mean? Do you suspect Ah Yi?"
"I'm not doubting, I'm stating the facts," Su Dingqin said. "I thought she wanted to kill that man, so she sent me a secret letter to tell me where the criminals were, and I got the badge successfully."
"Then, I went to the village."
Su Yanshu said anxiously, "I don't believe it. I don't believe that Ayi would set a trap for you. What good would it do her if you were caught?"
"Maybe she doesn't want me to be arrested, but..." Su Dingqin paused, "She wants to borrow my knife to kill the murderer."
"In fact, I was planning to do so. Kill those people, make a great contribution, and show my face in front of the emperor. It would be so glorious if I could accomplish something that the Red Dragon Guards couldn't do."
Su Yanshu's breathing was slightly short: "I still don't believe it. Why did Yi do this?"
"What if," Su Dingqin looked at him, "that painting was drawn by her? What if she is the Lord of Shitang?"
"The gangster was exposed and arrested, and the gang leader tried to silence him, but when the mask fell off, she had to silence him again."
"She couldn't go, so I became a knife in her hand."
