Chapter 836 Fang Jin Case 20
Chapter 836 Fang Jin Case 20
"It's okay. Manager Chen has lost the evidence, but Manager Su has physical evidence." Su Lie also breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Muan suddenly asked: "Dad, Qingya is the Ning Wang's prince's consort after all. Although she is doing this to protect the Bo Mansion, but..."
But a husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace, and it is too cruel to plot against your husband.
"Qingya is very proud. Now that she has lost the baby in her belly, I'm afraid she hates the palace." Su Lie was not too worried.
It is normal for women to be emotional and value love.
Fortunately, after Su Qingya came to her senses, she still sided with the Bo family.
"Dad, do we really have to stand on the side of the third prince? The prince is very powerful..." Su Muan was actually a little scared.
The battle for the throne has always been cruel. Which victory doesn't involve countless lives?
They, the Lord of Changping, are weak and have only participated in this without thinking. What if they lose?
"An'er, your father's title can be passed on to you, but you cannot pass it on to the next generation. If the Earl's Mansion remains unchanged, the title will be lost in just two generations."
Su Lie was in a heavy mood.
He took over the title from his father, but he was always frustrated and could not carry forward the title and continue the glory of his ancestors. This was a source of worry for him.
Su Muan stopped talking too.
Who doesn’t want their descendants to be rich and worry-free?
"We must continue to investigate the servants who escaped, as well as the ritual team."
We must know who is targeting the Bo Mansion.
The father and son had discussed the matter and no one paid attention to Mrs. Wan's mood.
If people are killed, what's the point of being afraid?
At night, whenever Mrs. Wan closed her eyes, she saw Wang's face, which was ferocious and open-eyed.
She sat up suddenly: "Madame Hu, Madame Hu!"
There was a noise behind the screen, and Madam Hu appeared: "Madam, did you have a nightmare? Do you want me to make some soothing soup?"
Mrs. Wan refused and grabbed Madam Hu's hand, still feeling frightened.
"Mammy, tell me, have we really done something wrong? Wang Shi used to be loyal. When Huai'an was a child, he couldn't eat anything. It was Wang Shi who found the folk remedy..."
What has been done is done, there is no room for regret.
Madam Hu held Madam's hand tightly and said, "Madam, you are the master, and the Chen family are the servants. It is only natural that the servant should die for the master."
"If you really feel bad, why not punish me? I was the one who came up with the idea. I'd rather die and go down to the underworld to make amends to the Chen family."
Madam Wan panicked and shook her head: "Madam Hu, don't talk nonsense. You are my wet nurse, you watched me grow up, I can't live without you."
"Forget it, I won't let my imagination run wild."
The candlelight flickered, and with the company of Madam Hu, Madam Wan finally fell asleep.
There were tears in the corners of Madam Hu's eyes.
She is sorry to the lady and the Chen family.
But she had no choice. She only had a little grandson, who was frail and sickly, and he fell into the hands of the eldest daughter.
She has no choice, ma'am, don't blame her.
It was late at night, but the main hall of the Third Princess's Mansion was still brightly lit.
The third princess was holding a long pot, half lying on the soft couch, her eyes a little hazy.
Fang Jin was kneeling on the ground behind a screen, but under his knees was a row of iron plates with sharp nails that pierced into human flesh.
Fang Jin's forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't even dare to groan.
The Third Princess threw down her wine glass and said lazily, "Tell me, why is it that the more I drink this wine, the more sober I become?"
"Is Prince Consort resentful of me? Why doesn't he always come to see me in my dreams?"
Fang Jin knelt obediently outside the screen, not daring to answer.
The third princess smiled and said, "You men all say that wine can make you forget your worries. In my opinion, it's just so-so."
"Fang Jin, have you ever drunk your sorrows?"
Fang Jin didn't dare to look up. His voice was trembling but gentle: "I have been troubled by worldly affairs in the past, but I have drunk wine. Perhaps wine is useful to ordinary people like us. The princess is a monarch, so she is naturally sober."
The third princess supported her head with her hands and threw the wine jug away.
"He can talk."
"If you had as much ability to do things as you did to talk, you wouldn't have failed so often."
"I don't want to keep a useless person who only knows how to flatter me around me."
Fang Jin knelt on the iron plate, trembling with fear, but did not defend himself.
"It is my fault that I failed to do my job well and displeased the princess. I deserve to die."
"Tell me, what happened?" The third princess' voice became cold.
"Yes."
Fang Jin could only report the truth.
"I originally sent someone to steal Chen Ge and Chen Xue out to threaten the chief steward Chen to change his story and make him testify against Prince Ning."
"Add to that Steward Su's testimony, and there will be no suspense in this case."
"But when the people below took action, they encountered the enemy. There were three secret guards in total. Their identities are unknown, but they are very skilled in martial arts. They stopped our people. Chen Ge and the others returned to the Bo Mansion."
"Unknown identity?" The third princess raised her voice.
"Yes, I haven't found out the identity of the other party yet, but the fact that Lord Changping killed fourteen members of the Chen family today is very strange, and it can be used as a breakthrough point."
"Also, the Third Prince is very suspicious. He showed up in Jingzhao Prefecture, seemingly to help us, but also seemingly not."
Fang Jin was not stupid either. He noticed that his subordinates were not doing their job well in court, so he made adjustments to the subsequent matters.
Although it has been adjusted, the part where Manager Su accuses Manager Chen of betraying his master is still a bit far-fetched.
"The Third Prince is just trying to take advantage of someone's misfortune. He's not worth your attention. Changping Marquis' Mansion, you need to find out who is causing trouble!"
The third princess spoke in a low voice.
"Yes." Fang Jin agreed.
"Get up, you have to show up tomorrow." said the third princess.
If you kneel on the iron nail board for too long, you may become disabled.
"Thank you, Princess, for your consideration." Fang Jin stood up carefully, but when he stood up, he also lifted up the iron plate.
With the help of the guards, he removed the iron plate.
It hurt as much as it hurt when it was inserted, and it would only hurt more when it was taken out. Fang Jin's face was distorted, but he couldn't and didn't dare to make a sound.
He took a deep breath only after leaving the house.
In fact, Fang Jin didn't understand. Why did the Third Princess, who was now under house arrest, not think about strengthening her relationship with the Second Prince, but always wanted to deal with Prince Ning?
Prince Ning’s Mansion was also punished. Isn’t it the prince who is in the limelight now?
But he didn't dare ask. He was the princess's dog and didn't deserve to know the reason. He just had to do what he was told.
This revenge was not for him from the beginning, it was controlled by the third princess.
Many people can't sleep tonight.
Lord Yue looked at the moonlight outside the window, feeling a little dazed, and thought of his original intention of becoming an official when he was young.
As the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, he did not want the case in his hands to end in an unclear manner, but as a subject, he should share the worries of the emperor and plan for the greater good.
Lord Yue sighed.
His staff also did not sleep at the table.
"Sir, are you really not going to interrogate Manager Su tonight?"
This person is full of loopholes from the moment he appears to the moment he gives his confession.
If you check him, you'll definitely find something.
"No, this case is no longer my responsibility." Lord Yue sighed again and finally looked away.
He had already entered the palace and reported the case. The emperor meant that Prince Ning was a cruel person and could not be indulged any longer.
