Chapter 95: The Strange Case of Dali Temple
"I did all this just to appease your stepmother. The son of the old woman is in my hands. If nothing happens to you, it will be a reward. If something happens to you..."
Qin Hanzhang lowered his eyes and did not continue speaking.
"When did the Marquis find it?" Su Qianqian was surprised.
Qin Hanzhang said nothing: I don’t want to talk!
"It is said that the emperor's half brother was killed by a concubine using witchcraft, so the emperor hates this technique the most. The witch dared to venture into Xijing, so she must have been forced to do so.
If this matter were known to others, Master Su might also be implicated, so it must not be revealed and the Gu-woman should be sent away as soon as possible to avoid any trouble. ”
Madam Qin said in a deep voice.
Su Qianqian nodded. This was why she did not use this incident to defeat Zhang's mother and daughter. Doing so would hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt herself by eight hundred.
"But the poison was only administered today, why did they..." Meng asked in confusion.
Su Qianqian also thought about this problem, and later attributed it to different physiques.
People who are naturally inclined towards sexual matters have weak resistance to this Gu, so the effect will be doubled after using it. However, this may not be the case if used on Qin Hanzhang.
"There is one more thing I want to discuss. Why didn't you take me with you when you went out? If I hadn't told you the truth today, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?"
Madam Qin suddenly turned hostile.
"Ouch, mother, my stomach hurts. I have to leave first!"
Meng was the first one to hold her stomach, confess her crime, and then turn around and run! The others followed suit, and Su Qianqian fell behind again. It was only when Qin Hanzhang pulled her sleeve to remind her that she escaped from Fushou Hall.
[Hahaha... Dianfeng has been vomiting for most of the day and is feeling weak. He was pretending to be pitiful and waiting for you in front of Tinglan Courtyard. Unexpectedly, that little dog jumped out and took advantage of him. He licked him hard, and he is no longer clean!
Now Dianfeng is vomiting and chasing the little dog. If you don’t go, it will take the dog’s life and throw it into the lotus pond to destroy the body! 】
As long as the system knows that the top person has suffered a setback, it will always be the first to come out and add insult to injury.
After rescuing the dispirited little dog from the clutches of Dianfeng, he returned to Tinglan Courtyard and saw Qingfeng standing at the gate with a box of snacks in his hand.
Su Qianqian found it funny. Why did Qingfeng firmly believe that Su Xing’s favorite gift was snacks?
Seeing the Marquis and his wife, Qing Feng hurriedly and somewhat awkwardly saluted.
"Qingfeng, do you like snacks very much?" Su Qianqian had already walked over and suddenly turned back and asked.
"Madam, I don't like it." Qing Feng answered without hesitation.
Su Xing, who was following behind Su Qianqian, raised his head and was stunned for a moment.
"Then why do you always send snacks to Su Xing?" Su Qianqian was not surprised.
"I don't like it because I've never eaten it before. The steamed buns are delicious, and the dim sum must be even better. So I saved the first reward I received for Chuntao. I was afraid that after she tasted it once and found it good, I would be reluctant to give it all to her."
Qing Feng answered frankly.
Su Xing pursed his lips and lowered his head. Su Qianqian said "Oh", glanced at Su Xing, and turned to go in.
Seeing Su Xing continue to walk into the yard, Qing Feng lowered his head with some disappointment.
Suddenly, his hands felt lighter, and Su Xing took the box of snacks, opened it, picked out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and handed it to Qing Feng: "We will share it from now on. You will always know whether it tastes good or not."
This decadent taste of love!
Su Qianqian looked at him with disdain, because no one cared about him!
On the second day, Su Qianqian prepared five hundred-year-old ginsengs and gave them to Qin Hanzhang, asking him to give them to Gu Wu. Of course, these ginsengs were also taken from Qin Hanzhang's private warehouse.
Su Qianqian didn't want to offend someone who had the ability to take her life at any time. Gu Wu knew her birth date and horoscope. The key point was that even if she killed Gu Wu, she might have to be buried with her, which was not worth it.
Not long after Qin Hanzhang left, Su Qianqian went to the meeting hall to deal with the affairs of the mansion. While she was listening to the system talking about what was happening in the house, the doorman came to report that the head of the Ministry of Justice had come to the mansion to look for a young man named "Su Qian".
Su Qianqian was about to say no, but suddenly remembered that the name she used when testifying for the businessman in the Ministry of Justice was Su Qian.
Why are you looking for her? Is there any new development in that case?
Out of consideration for Yin Yue Niang, Su Qian Qian couldn't refuse. More importantly, she was curious and wanted to know what fresh melons there were. She was tired of the melons in the mansion.
She changed into men's clothes. Last time, Gu Wu found out that she was a woman. Su Qianqian was very dissatisfied and deliberately drew her eyebrows thicker and flatter.
After thinking about it, I dotted a mole in the middle of my chin. This way, I would look rougher and more like a man, so I started to put on the rough guy makeup.
Taking the "Master Qin" Qin Yuzhuo, who had changed into men's clothes, to the outer courtyard to meet the head of the Ministry of Justice, the head did not shut up for a long time: "Are you really Master Su Qian?"
Su Qianqian nodded: "That's me."
The person in charge did not dare to question and quickly asked the two "young masters" to get in the car and told them the truth on the way.
It turned out that the Ministry of Justice had solved the strange case. The Chief Justice of the Dali Temple knew that it was because a young man named Su Qian had uncovered the secret, so he found the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and asked him to help find Su Qian and to give advice on a case in the Dali Temple.
So when she walked into the back hall of the Dali Temple, the two judges were waiting for her with great anticipation.
When Minister Yin saw that Su Qianqian's expression was the same as that of the head of the Ministry of Justice, he was afraid that the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple would see Su Qianqian and doubt her identity, so he described Su Qianqian as Pan An and Wei Jie in advance. Unexpectedly, Su Qianqian's sudden change overturned his description.
Dali Temple Minister Zhuang Shizhao looked at Minister Yin meaningfully: That's just your vision!
[This Lord Zhuang took over three cases in a row, and none of them was closed within half a year. He became the official with the worst performance in the Dali Temple, and the leader among all the officials!
He became famous because of his bad luck. Now when officials from the Dali Temple take a case, the first thing they do is to worship the gods, Buddhas and ancestors and stay away from Lord Zhuang to avoid being contaminated by his bad luck. 】
The system eats melons quietly.
Lord Zhuang, who was sitting in the upper seat, raised his eyebrows suddenly and was about to open his mouth to scold, but he found that his hand was grabbed by Lord Yin and was squeezed hard.
Mr. Zhuang: What do you mean? You shouldn't wait until this age to be gay!
In the end, he didn't say anything, just to see if there was anything strange about Su Qianqian.
"Master Su, I asked you to come here because you are smart. The Dali Temple has a case that has been under investigation for a long time but has not been resolved. I would like to ask you to take a look at it."
Minister Yin explained the purpose of inviting Su Qianqian.
"Okay, okay, but is it just one case?" Su Qianqian asked enthusiastically.
Mr. Zhuang: ...
"...There are several...but let me talk about this one first. If the case is not closed, I'm afraid Lord Zhuang..." Minister Yin returned a meaningful look to Lord Zhuang.
Lord Zhuang introduced the case: A scholar was going to take part in the imperial examination next year. He studied in an academy all year round. He returned home in the spring when the academy was closed for farming. However, he found that his wife had become plump, but her face looked sad.
After the autumn examination, the scholar returned home and found that his wife was pregnant and looked like she was about to give birth.
The scholar suddenly became suspicious. There were only five months between the farming leave and the autumn examination. How could his wife's belly look so big? So he asked his wife, and she denied that she had an affair and was pregnant, and the two started arguing.
As a result, early the next morning, the sister-in-law came to call them for dinner, but failed to wake them up, so she asked the mother-in-law and husband to come over. When they went in, they found the scholar sitting on the ground in a daze, and his wife had died on the bed.
"His wife's family took the scholar to court, but the scholar refused to admit his guilt, saying that he was innocent and that his wife had committed suicide out of shame because of her adultery."
Master Zhuang frowned and continued, "But the woman clearly died of suffocation, not hanging from the beam. She could only have covered her mouth and nose. How did you do that?"
