Chapter 169 169. I want five

Nian Jincheng nodded, "This move can be said to be a drastic clarification. As long as you can get rid of the relationship with Xiao Muyun, there will be no proof of his death, and the mastermind behind the scenes will have nothing to do."

wonderful.Nian Jincheng thought that if he encountered such a situation, he would never have thought of such a way to deal with it.

"However, you and Xiao Muyun..." Nian Jincheng frowned, "I don't mean anything else, I just think that you can't have a crush on someone like him, right?"

Nian Jincheng didn't know the original Su Liang, but he felt that even if a person lost his memory, his character would not change much.

"Very good." Su Liang nodded, "You think so, when I clarify, there will naturally be someone who has the same idea as you."

"Yes." Nian Jincheng agreed.

It's getting dark.

Lu Yu secretly came over to check the situation.Wan Hui was very worried when she learned that Ping An was taken away.

"Zheng'er insisted on coming to see you, and finally coaxed him to come back another day." Lu Yu frowned deeply, "What should we do now?"

Su Liang smiled, "Don't worry, Ning Jing and I will take care of it. If you don't come, I'm going over to see Zheng Er. I made him delicious food and you just take it away. I have something to trouble you and Wan elder sister."

Lu Yu shook his head, "Don't be so polite, if there is anything we can help, just say it."

Seeing that Su Liang still had time to cook for Zheng'er, Lu Yu felt that she must have a solution, and felt a little relieved.

"Spread a message for me." Su Liang said.

The restaurant opened by Wanjia has a lot of staff available in the capital.

After hearing what Su Liang said, Lu Yu was shocked, "So that's the case! The Second Young Master Xiao is a lunatic at all, and he deserves to die!"

In fact, what Su Liang said was a story she made up, and there was not much truth in it.But it sounds weird at first, but the more I think about it, the more I think it is really possible, and it can be completely matched with what is happening now.

Compared to Su Liang, who had a private relationship with Xiao Muyun when he was 13 years old, and now uses his own knife to kill people, Xiao Muyun, an unfavored bastard and widower, is delusional about the amazing and brilliant martial arts champion. The possibility of being destroyed is even greater.

Anyway, few people in the capital knew what the original owner was like. Almost everyone knew Su Liang from martial arts, and their impressions of her before today were all positive.

It is not difficult to reverse public opinion in time.

But now, Su Liang thinks that even if nothing happened to the Su family, people like the original owner and Xiao Muyun couldn't have a good result.

Xiao Muyun was greedy for the original owner's beauty, and the original owner wanted to enter the prime minister's house, even if he was Xiao Muyun's successor, his status was not enough, and he might be tricked by Xiao Muyun into being innocent, so he had to be a concubine with him.

Because he is an irresponsible scum who has no morals and just wants to have fun.

……

Lu Yu returned home with the delicious food that Su Liang made for Zheng Er, and after discussing with Wan Hui, the two took action.

That night, new rumors spread rapidly in the capital.

Compared with the negative news about Su Liang earlier, what spread later was even more shocking.

And the two kinds of public opinions collided. Was it because Su Liang had an affair with Xiao Muyun, and even committed himself to Xiao Muyun before he could reach the end, or was Xiao Muyun coveting the champion of martial arts for many years, crazy and crazy, and wanted to drag her to die with him after being rejected?

Which one do you believe?
The latter sounds a bit outrageous at first, but the more people think about it, the more real it becomes.

But the former has many flaws.Can Su Liang, who is both talented and beautiful, fall in love with a concubine son of the Xiao family whose wife died?Su Liang wanted to kill Xiao Muyun, how could he use his well-known weapon?These are all quite obvious doubts.

Just because all the evidence points to Su Liang and there seems to be no other possibility, Su Liang becomes the only possible murderer.Tranquility and her, in the eyes of everyone, are indistinguishable from each other.

But now, "other possibilities" have not only appeared, but the story is more complete without obvious flaws.

Under such circumstances, for the people in the capital who saw Su Liang win the champion of martial arts and defeated the female general of the enemy country, they were more willing to believe that the champion of martial arts they had praised was a good one.

The Duke of Qin's Mansion, Zhongxinhou's Mansion, and Lin's Mansion, which had been following the murder case all along, soon received the news and were relieved to learn that the public opinion had reversed.

Duanmu Chen had just returned to the fourth prince's mansion from the palace, and when he received a report from Chang'an and learned of the new rumors spreading outside, he slowly laughed, "Father already knew about it."

Chang'an froze for a moment, then heard Duanmu Chen say, "Su Liang and Ning Jing were talking in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the people around the father were listening nearby."

Chang An was very surprised, "Didn't Master say that the Emperor will not protect Miss Su?"

Duanmuchen shook his head, "It's two different things. The civil and military champion who was handpicked by the father not long ago was suspected of murder within a day, how could he be happy? The father is very clear that it cannot be done by Su Liang. Someone is going to frame her. But whether she can cleanse herself this time and pass the test smoothly, and how she and Ningping will solve the problem, is what Royal Father cares about."

Chang An suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

The corners of Duanmu Chen's lips curled up slightly, "Now is the time to employ people. They have already proved their talents and strength. Father still cherishes their talents. But you can't protect them on the cusp of the storm, or you will be criticized. I thought so too. The trouble this time is very tricky, Su Liang can hardly find herself out, the key is that apart from her, there is no other suspect, and Xiao Muyun is really dead. Even if she is exonerated, she will still be suspected."

Chang An nodded, "That's true. But I never expected Miss Su to come up with such a clever plan. There are no other suspects, so Xiao Muyun is made crazy, and she commits suicide and kills her. All the evidence is used to prove it. Miss Su's statement is more reasonable!"

"Isn't it?" Duanmu Chen smiled, "The things Xiao Muyun wrote before he died were just crazy words. He colluded with someone, deliberately harming Su Liang, and finally put himself in it, and died." It deserves it."

Chang An frowned, "If Xiao Muyun didn't die, what purpose did he want to achieve?"

"If he was seriously injured, he would personally identify him, and with the 'evidence' he had prepared long ago, it would prove that the murderer was Su Liang. The reputation is ruined and the future is hopeless." Duanmu Chen snorted coldly.

Chang An was puzzled, "He is a concubine of the Xiao family, he has always been peaceful, why is he so risky to harm Miss Su?"

Duanmu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, "Of course it can't be Xiao Muyun's own idea. Someone behind him must have promised huge profits and conspired with him to kill Su Liang. He is a bastard, so he pretends to be gentle and non-controversial. It's not true. content with the status quo."

"Could it be, Second Prince?" Chang An asked.

Duanmu Chen nodded, "Duanmu Sheng and Duanmu Ao are both possible, even Duanmu Che. Su Liang is very smart, pick himself up first and then investigate other things, otherwise he will get a fishy body, and if he makes a wrong step, it will be difficult to get rid of the whole body." Return."

"That's right!" Chang An sighed, "It's impossible to guard against such a dirty trick, and it would be ruined if it was replaced by another person. Mr. Ning's surrender is also very powerful, making it impossible for some people in the Ministry of Punishment to take action against Miss Su for the time being."

Duanmu Chen chuckled, "Now I feel that Su Liang was sent by heaven to help me. As long as I don't offend her and seize the opportunity to benefit her, she will definitely stand by my side at critical moments."

Chang An deeply believed, "Master is wise."

……

In the middle of the night, Su Liang secretly sneaked into Prime Minister Xiao's mansion, threw the prepared knife into the lake in the back garden, and left quickly.

After that, she didn't go home directly, but went to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

There were guards guarding the Ministry of Punishment, Su Liang didn't go in, so he found a high place nearby to hide, and kept his eyes on the movement around him.

She felt that someone might kill Ning Jing tonight.

As for the home, just in case, she had already disguised Nian Jincheng before going out, and moved to a remote, empty yard where no one lived before.

During the day, Su Liang reminded Ping Ping not to eat the food in the cell, for fear that someone would poison him.Or maybe the person who wants to kill Tranquility is already inside. She knows Tranquility is capable and can deal with trouble even if there is trouble, but she still plans to keep vigil outside.

After staying up all night, Su Liang left when it was almost dawn, and did not notice any abnormalities around the criminal department last night.

Su Liang washed and changed clothes, made breakfast, gave Nian Jincheng a copy, and then rode to the Ministry of Punishment to see Ning Jing.

People who saw Su Liang again today were still talking about it, but what they said was very different from last night.Many people believed that she was targeted by a lunatic because she was too good, and suffered an indiscriminate disaster.

Su Liang still entered the prison of the Criminal Ministry smoothly. When he saw Ning Jing, he looked exactly the same as yesterday, as if he hadn't moved at all since Su Liang left.

Su Liang laid out the warm food, and naturally picked it up for Ning Jing to eat, "Did you sleep last night?"

Ning Jing shook his head, "There are fleas, I can't sleep."

Su Liang heard Ning Jing's hint that someone really attacked him last night.Of course, it didn't work out.

Su Liang didn't ask in detail, and she left after Ping An finished her meal.

……

When Ning Jing was interrogated, he talked about Xiao Muyun's entanglement with Su Liang, and his speculation that Xiao Muyun used suicide to slander Su Liang.

Mei Shangshu snorted coldly, "If you committed suicide, why didn't you see the weapon?"

Ning Jing thought for a while and said, "Xiao Muyun's entourage drowned and died, but did you search the lake for any weapons?"

Mei Shangshu looked at Gou Yu, Gou Yu frowned, "Only one body was recovered from the lake yesterday, and nothing else was found."

I don't know what happened, but Mei Shangshu's attitude was not as tough as yesterday, and he ordered Gou Yu to take someone to Prime Minister Xiao's mansion to look for the murder weapon, especially the lake in the back garden.

So Gou Yu took someone to Xiao's house again.

The Xiao family also knew that the public opinion reversed last night, Xiao Muyun suddenly changed from a victim to a paranoid lunatic, and his death was said to be a suicide.

Of course, the Xiao family knew very well that Su Liang released the following news, and they were upset because it damaged the Xiao family's reputation.

But at first they didn't understand what the relationship between Xiao Muyun and Su Liang was, and the only follower who could know was also dead.Second, Duanmuchen beat him yesterday, don't stand up for the dead Xiao Muyun, and leave everything to the Criminal Department to investigate.

Gou Yu didn't encounter any obstacles, spent a lot of manpower and took half a day to fish out a knife from the bottom of the lake.

This knife is similar in shape to Su Liang's known double knife, but it is not the same.And yesterday, Gou Yu asked Su Liang to hand over her swords in front of Xiao's family for investigation.

In this way, this knife was identified as the murder weapon to kill Xiao Muyun.

This time, Su Liang's suspicion was cleared.

It's impossible for her to kill people with a knife similar to her usual weapon, and then throw it into the lake without taking it away, it's too ridiculous.

From Ning Jing's testimony, the evidence collected by Xiao's family, and the situation at the scene, Gou Yu deduced the facts as follows:

As Su Liang said, Xiao Muyun was obsessed with her wishful thinking and was rejected by her. Seeing that she was outstanding, he knew that it was impossible to get her, so he frantically wanted to drag her to die with him.First, he wrote down some imaginary crazy words, and then found a knife similar to Su Liang's weapon, and by some means, he forced his entourage to kill himself, then asked the entourage to take away the murder weapon and jump into the lake to commit suicide.

A follower died as soon as he died, and no one paid attention. His body was found floating up, and no one thought of going to the lake to salvage the murder weapon.

In this way, all suspicions will be concentrated on Su Liang alone.If Su Liang can't prove her innocence, according to the weapons and the words left by Xiao Muyun, she can be convicted.

After Gou Yu returned to the Ministry of Criminal Justice with the murder weapon, news spread quickly.

And then new witnesses emerged.

He is the old housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion, the neighbor of the Duke of Qin's Mansion.

He came forward to testify that for two consecutive days last month, when he went out, he saw the carriage with the sign of Prime Minister Xiao's Mansion parked in the alley for a long time.One of them happened to see Su Liang coming out of Duke Qin's mansion on horseback, and Xiao's carriage came out of the alley. Xiao Muyun got down from inside and wanted to talk to Su Liang, but Su Liang ignored him and walked away.

The testimony of this witness directly proved the fact that "Xiao Muyun secretly stalked and harassed Su Liang", which was very beneficial to Su Liang.

Before noon, the Ministry of Criminal Justice quickly concluded the murder case that caused a lot of trouble in the city.

Both Su Liang and Ning Jing were innocent, but Xiao Muyun fell insane after courtship and committed suicide to frame Su Liang.

Ning Jing came out of the criminal court, as if he just went in for a visit, with a calm face and neat clothes.

Su Liang stood beside the carriage and waited. When he saw him approaching, he smiled and waved.

Ning Jing got into the car, and Su Liang drove him personally to take him home.

Therefore, after experiencing a bizarre murder incident, "The Story of the Mutual Love of the Civil and Military Scholar" has added a rich and colorful touch.

Half of the people in the capital are cursing Xiao Muyun as a toad who wants to eat swan meat and is a lunatic.

The other half was sighing, although Ning Jing is a literati, but he stepped forward when something happened to Su Liang, what a man!And Su Liang didn't panic when things happened, he rescued Ning Jing, cleared his suspicions, he was wise and brave!The two are truly a match made in heaven.

"Mr. Ning and Miss Su are a match made in heaven, Xiao Muyun is a clown! Let him go to hell!"

That's the impression the turmoil ultimately left on people.

……

After Su Liang and Ning Jing returned home, Ning Jing was taking a bath, and Su Liang cooked some of his favorite dishes.

As soon as it was ready, all my friends came to the door. They were very happy after sweeping away yesterday's melancholy.

Just as Su Liang set the food, Xing Yusheng was about to sit down, when Ning Jing said, "It's all my food."

Xing Yusheng: ...Do you want to be so stingy?

Su Liang chuckled, "I'm afraid someone will poison you. He didn't eat last night. He must be hungry. Let him eat by himself."

Xing Yusheng supported his forehead, "I just want to sit down and not compete with him for food."

"Can I eat it?" Zheng'er raised his little hand and smiled cutely, saying that he is so cute that he has nothing to eat?

Ning Jing nodded, "Come here, eat with me."

So, the big one and the other ate delicious food, while the others watched.

Wan Hui said with a smile, "I'll treat you later, so let's go to the restaurant. This time there was no danger, it's worth celebrating."

"I'm tired, so I won't go." Ning Jing shook his head.

Zheng'er said with a smile, "I'm tired too, don't go!"

Su Liang yawned, "We didn't sleep last night, and I won't go either. You go to celebrate, count me as a treat."

Lin Xueqing asked with a smile, "Sister Su, Senior Brother Ning couldn't sleep in the prison last night, why didn't you sleep? Did you miss Senior Brother Ning, so you couldn't sleep all night?"

Su Liang said solemnly, "Of course, I miss him as a matter of course."

"Oh, sister Su, when will you learn to be shy, really." Lin Xueqing got the answer she wanted, but felt wrong again.

The friends all went to a restaurant for a party, the two protagonists were at home, and there was a cute little guy.

Nian Jincheng, who was forgotten in a remote courtyard, could only wait silently for someone to think of him.

Su Liang was not hungry, so he sat across from Ning Jing, watching him and Zheng'er eating, thoughtfully, "Someone must be conspiring with Xiao Muyun, who do you think?"

Ning Jing didn't answer, but asked Zheng'er, "One, two, five, choose a number."

"One, two, five?" Zheng'er carefully counted the fingers on his little hand with a small face, and finally raised a white and tender little palm, "I want five!"

Ning Jing nodded, looked at Su Liang, "Well, I also think it's Duanmuche."
