Chapter 129: Right and Wrong
Xiangyang is a prosperous place and is located on a major transportation route. The fact that the prefect of Xiangyang can be used by Jian Suining is simply a powerful weapon for him.
Su Chenyu and Su Yanqing did not stay in Xiangyang for long, and Jian Suining had to stay here to deal with the follow-up matters of the missing person case.
Before leaving, Su Chenyu handed the blood-stained umbrella to Jian Suining: "I promised Xiaomi that I would bring my sister back to her. I only found this umbrella."
Jian Suining took the umbrella, feeling extremely heavy: "I understand. I will give this umbrella to them."
In the past few days, Jian Suining has been buying back the umbrellas that were sold, but even if he buys them back, how can he be sure whose skin the umbrella is made of?
At least, Xiaomi's sister was found.
At this moment, a strong sense of powerlessness arose in Jian Suining's heart.
Watching Su Chenyu and her group leave, Jian Suining tightly grasped the umbrella in his hand...
The journey back to Beijing was not rushed and it took three days to get back to the capital.
Seeing the city gate from afar, Aunt Xu couldn't help but show joy on her face: "Master, we are finally back in Beijing."
As I got closer to the city gate, I heard a noise at the gate. It turned out that a carriage almost hit someone.
"No matter who was in the carriage, it almost hit someone. Don't you have to apologize?" the man argued.
"How dare you! The people sitting in the carriage are Master Rui'an and his consort. How dare you stop the Master's carriage and still shout at him?"
"Who stopped your carriage? It was your carriage that frightened my horse, causing me to fall off. I didn't ask your master to apologize, I just asked the coachman to apologize. Isn't that unreasonable?"
…
Two groups of people blocked the city gate, and many people with the surname Zhu gathered around. Zhu Yi had to stop his carriage when it arrived at the city gate.
Su Chenyu lifted the curtain of the carriage and found that the man was actually the Minister of Rites, Ga Younian.
She remembered that Lian's mother had intended to marry Lian Qing to Lu Younian. Now that Lian Qing had run away, did Lian Shizhao not even care about this little bit of kindness?
"Ga Younian, did you come here on purpose to stop the carriage today?" Lian Shizhao came out of the carriage, looked at Ga Younian, and asked unhappily, "Although my mother intended to marry my sister to you before, my sister has disappeared without a trace, and our family is looking for her everywhere. Even if you are dissatisfied, you should wait until Lian Qing comes back, and you shouldn't come here to stop the carriage at this time."
After hearing what Lian Shizhao said, people who didn't know the truth thought that Lu Younian was just a person of love and hate, and liked the girl from the Lian family, but was dissatisfied because the girl suddenly disappeared, so he deliberately stopped Lian Shizhao's carriage at the city gate to vent his resentment.
Su Ruian's voice continued to sound: "Master, this master and his wife left the city this time to pray for blessings at Jizhao Temple, hoping to find Qing'er as soon as possible. You are blocking our way like this, don't you want Qing'er to come back soon?"
Su Ruian and Lian Shizhao have always valued their reputation. Now that there are so many people with the same surname gathered around them, how could they admit that their carriage had hit someone else?
Ga Younian's face turned red with anger: "I, I don't care about this marriage at all, it's just your family's wishful thinking."
The people in the Ministry of Rites valued etiquette the most, which might be what outsiders called too pedantic. The Lian family committed a serious crime, and although Su Ruian escaped, how could Gu Younian marry into such a family?
It just so happened that the Lian family still had their eyes on him. When Ga Younian was thinking about how to refuse, Lian Qing disappeared during the hunting trip in Yanshan, and the marriage was naturally forgotten.
