Chapter 178
It's going to rain.
After Su Liang left the Second Prince's Mansion, he rode home alone.
Pedestrians who met on the road looked at her with strange eyes and pointed behind her back.
After passing Xiuzhuang, Su Liang got off his horse and went in when he heard Yan Yu's voice.
"Are you okay?" Yan Yu pulled Su Liang and looked him up and down.
Su Liang nodded, "I have something to do. I want to take a bath."
She trained in the barracks for half a day, and suddenly received an order, and went back to the city without washing her face or changing her clothes.
Yan Yu asked Su Liang to sit down and poured her a cup of hot tea, "Go home and take a bath later. I saw you riding a horse and went to the Second Prince's Mansion, and kept worrying about it. Did things go well?"
Su Liang held the teacup and smiled, "Are you worried about me, or someone?"
Yan Yu said seriously, "All of them."
"I'm fine, he's fine for now." Su Liang said.
Yan Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "Knowing what you're doing, I suddenly feel that the fight between me and those from the Yan family is not worth mentioning. You are too courageous."
Su Liang took a sip of tea, smiled without saying a word.
Yan Yu sighed slightly, "But of course I support you, I'm just afraid that something will happen to you."
Su Liang changed the subject, "Have you seen Tranquility?"
Yan Yu nodded, "He went home an hour ago. I didn't call him."
"It seems that the errand in the household department is really free." Su Liang said after drinking tea, "Are you still busy? If you are not busy, go home with me. Someone told me to take good care of you, lest you be caught What am I implicated in?"
Yan Yu couldn't help laughing, "He should take care of himself first. Let's go home."
Because of the uneasiness in his heart, Yan Yu didn't even look at the account book, so he packed it up and took it home to read again.
Su Liang took Yan Yu with him, and the two rode together, which also attracted the attention of many people.
But Yan Yu is a new face in the capital, everyone knows that the current head of the Yan family is a young girl, but they don't know that this is it.
When the two arrived home, they found Wan Hui and Lu Yu bringing their children.
Wan Hui and Yan Yu have known each other since they were young, and it has been several years since they met last time, and they had contacted each other by letter because of Su Liang.
Reunited today, both are quite emotional.
Yan Yu prepared a gift for Zheng'er, and the little guy happily took it to find his Uncle Ning.
Wan Hui and Yan Yu were talking, and Lu Yu went out to the restaurant to get food and drinks.
After Su Liang took a shower, changed his clothes, packed up, and Lu Yu came back.
It was raining outside and the room was warm.
Wan Hui looked very worried when she mentioned the rumors in the capital today.After all, the two princes were involved, if Su Liang really took the blame, the consequences would be serious.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Su Liang was very calm.
Wan Hui sighed, "I believe you. You are capable, but you should be more careful when dealing with the royal family."
Qi Jun came over to inquire about Su Liang, and when he got the answer of "nothing", he went back. After reporting to Xing Yusheng, he went to the Lin Mansion and Duke Qin's Mansion to inform him.
After the meal, Lu Yu and Wan Hui left first, Zheng'er was sleeping on Ning Jing's bed, Ning Jing said that he would take him home later.
Yan Yu went to look at the ledger, Su Liang and Ning Jing were copying the medical books borrowed from Huguo Temple.As for the interrogation of Duanmu Ao, she planned to wait until the evening.
The Su Mansion was as calm as if nothing had happened.
……
in the palace.
After Duanmu Chen left the second prince's mansion, he entered the palace again.
Duanmu Yi asked with a sullen face, "How is the second child?"
Duanmuchen said in a respectful voice, "Princess Su came from the barracks outside the city to treat Brother Er Huang, but... Imperial Physician Su said that Brother Er Huang was not ill and wanted to kill her. Brother II said that it was Imperial Doctor Su who wanted to kill him. "
Duanmuyi's face darkened, "What's going on?"
Duanmu Cheng, who was sitting next to him, sweated profusely on his back, and said, "Father, how can the second brother be fine? My son, look, it was Su Liang who poisoned him, and then he took the opportunity to assassinate the second brother. Lie Said that the second brother wanted to kill her first!"
Duanmuchen sighed, "I don't know what's going on, so I let Su Liang go home first, and the second brother is still in the mansion."
After a moment of silence, Duanmu Yi ordered to call Duanmu Ao.
"Fourth, you go back first." Duanmu Yi looked at Duanmu Chen.
Duanmuchen bowed politely and left.
When he turned around, he saw a bead-sized bead of sweat slipping from Duanmu Sheng's forehead.
Duanmuchen sneered in his heart, there must be a good show next, but unfortunately he couldn't see it.
In such a situation, if Duanmu Yi wanted to use Su Liang, it was impossible not to investigate the truth about Xiao Mulian's death.
When Duanmuchen left the palace, it started to rain.
The carriage passed Changchun Garden, which was shaded by green trees, and the red lacquered gate was still tightly closed.
Chang An glanced at it, his expression was inexplicable, "I don't know what happened to the trees in Changchun Garden, it is rumored that the garden is haunted by ghosts."
Duanmu Chen's tone was faint, "Some people have ghosts in their hearts, so they can make trouble."
Chang'an didn't know why, but he felt that his master was in a really good mood today, and even when he said yin and yang words, the ending sound was rising.
……
Nian Jincheng knelt down in front of Duanmuyi with his head down, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't pretend to be sick! I don't know why I lost my mind. Su Liang stuffed a medicine into my mouth, and it suddenly recovered! She took A gold needle is going to stab Erchen between the eyebrows! Even if she dare not kill me, this move is to provoke me and force me to kill her, so she pretends to be innocent and picks herself clean!"
Duan Mucheng's face was gloomy, "Father, the second brother was framed by Su Liang!"
"And that time in Huguo Temple, I didn't send someone to assassinate her at all, but she poured dirty water on her, and I couldn't justify it!" Nian Jincheng said coldly, "Father Huang Mingjian, my son's words are true!"
"Father, my son sees that Su Liang must have been sent by someone with the intention of bringing chaos to the country!" Duan Mucheng said righteously, "Fifth brother must have done it!"
Duanmu Yi's face was as dark as ink, "If Su Liang did it, how did the rumors spread?"
Duanmu Cheng froze for a moment, frowned and thought, "Look, my son, this is also Su Liang's trick. Use this method to get rid of yourself!"
"That's right!" Nian Jincheng said coldly, "In the past two days, she has played tricks and frightened me and the prince and brother! There can be no one else except her!"
Duanmu Sheng nodded subconsciously, but suddenly realized, it's broken!
Sure enough, Duanmuyi asked coldly the next moment, "Pretending to be a ghost? Scaring you? Make it clear!"
Nian Jincheng's face froze, "No...it's nothing..."
Duanmu Yi looked at Duanmu Sheng, "Prince, tell me!"
What Duanmu Sheng was most afraid of was that Duanmu Ao would speak out about Xiao Mulian impulsively, but what he was afraid of would happen.
At this moment, under Duanmu's icy gaze, Duanmucheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "At the beginning, Su Yuanzhou healed the second younger sibling, but he killed the second younger sibling. Knowing that the crime was serious, he committed suicide with his children and grandchildren. Su Liang must have vented her anger on the second brother, thinking that the Su family was all caused by the second brother, and she pretended to be a ghost to scare the second brother in the past two days. I went to find the second brother yesterday and only found out after hearing him mention it."
Duanmu Yi heard the words, grabbed the inkstone, and slammed it heavily on the desk, "Why did the second child say that Su Liang pretended to be a ghost to scare the two of you? What does it have to do with you? What kind of god is she pretending to be? What the hell is she doing?"
"It has nothing to do with Erchen, it's the second younger brother's slip of the tongue." Duanmu Sheng said with an ugly face.
Nian Jincheng glanced at Duanmu Cheng, his eyes flickered, and then he lowered his head, "Yes, my son made a slip of the tongue for a while, and it has nothing to do with the prince and brother."
"Then tell me, why did Su Liang kill the second child?" Duanmuyi said coldly, "She blamed the second child because of the death of her family? That's all?"
Nian Jincheng nodded immediately, "That's right, that's it! Back then when Su Yuanzhou killed Mu Lian, my son-in-law didn't ask Su Liang to settle the score, but she was relentless!"
"Okay." The coldness in Duanmu Yi's eyes became more intense, "Then tell me, your wife was seriously ill back then, so many imperial doctors refused to call, why did you invite Su Yuanzhou to come to treat her?"
But any normal person knows that certain things don't happen normally.
Although Su Yuanzhou has good medical skills, he is just a commoner. Even if his whole family dies, it is impossible for him to attract the emperor's attention.
What happened at the beginning, with the death of the Su family, became a major event.
If Su Liang hadn't been outstanding enough to attract Duanmu Yi's attention, now Duanmu Yi wouldn't be able to question his two sons about the death of some common people.
This is the reason why Su Liang chose to take the martial arts exam.
Only when she has value can she be qualified to seek justice for the Su family, otherwise, no one will pay any attention to her.
The reason why Duanmuchen cooperated with Su Liang and helped her secretly was precisely because Su Liang's value to him was getting higher and higher, and he did it for his own benefit.
Of course Su Liang could choose to assassinate Duanmu Sheng and Duanmu Ao secretly, but with Ning Jing's help, it was not impossible.
But it is difficult to find out the original truth in this simple and crude way.
Su Liang didn't want the Su family to die in an unclear manner.
She also wants to let the culprit know that they are paying the price for their evil deeds, and that they will lose everything and die for someone!
At this moment, facing Duanmu Yi's questioning, Nian Jincheng lowered his head and was speechless.
He is not a person who is good at acting. Before the accident, many people had the impression that he was upright and a bit rigid.
But this time Su Liang made a good plan. She and Ning Jing had told Nian Jincheng about the situations that might arise in the future.
It's almost a "dress rehearsal" of what's happening right now.
It's just that Nian Jincheng has never done it, but he has enough brains and a lot of courage. The previous apprehension was more because he didn't want to spoil Su Liang's affairs.
Now, he has not been found to be a fake and has "been getting better".
Just now Duanmu Sheng thought that "Duanmu Ao" brought up Su Liang's trickery on impulse.
But in fact, Nian Jincheng did it on purpose.
Seeing that Nian Jincheng was silent, Duanmu Yi looked at Duanmu Sheng again, "Does the prince know?"
Duanmu Cheng narrowed his eyes, concealed his panic, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this matter. Maybe Su Yuanzhou once healed the second younger sibling, so let the second younger sibling treat him."
Hearing Duanmucheng's "clear instructions", Nian Jincheng nodded immediately, "Yes! It was Su Yuanzhou that Xiao Mulian asked to invite. I don't know why she must invite Su Yuanzhou!"
From the beginning to the end, Duanmu Yi saw the obvious panic and cooperation of the two brothers.
"Since you all said it was all a misunderstanding, let Su Liang come over and explain clearly." Duanmu Yi said in a cold voice, and ordered Su Liang to enter the palace.
Duanmu Sheng wanted to say that it had nothing to do with him, please leave first, but he was afraid that if he left, "Duanmu Ao" would say something he shouldn't say, and the situation would get out of control, so he still sat there, feeling like he was on pins and needles.
"Second brother, get up." Duanmu Yi's voice could not hear any emotion.
Nian Jincheng thanked En and sat down opposite Duanmu Sheng.He was a little uncertain about Duanmu Yi's mind.Having said so much, Duanmu Yi couldn't have been unaware of something suspicious, but he didn't investigate further.
But Nian Jincheng hoped for Su Liang to come.With Su Liang around, he would feel more at ease.
Both the Queen Mother and the Empress sent people over to inquire. Duanmu Yi said that he was discussing with his two sons and that he was not free, and he asked someone to set up a meal. It seemed that he really believed their words and planned to reconcile their conflict with Su Liang.
Nian Jincheng didn't know what taboos Duanmu Ao had, and was afraid of showing his flaws, so he barely moved his chopsticks, saying that his chest was tight and he couldn't eat, so he drank some tea.
……
When the people from the palace arrived at the Su Mansion, Su Liang was copying books seriously.Not only can you practice calligraphy, but it is also equivalent to reading medical books carefully.
Knowing that Duanmu Yi ordered her to enter the palace, Su Liang changed into a coat, habitually brought a medicine box, and went out with an umbrella.
Ning Jing sat by the window, watched Su Liang's figure disappear into the rain, looked away, and continued to copy the book.
"Uncle Ning..." Zheng'er woke up and came out of the inner room with bare feet.
Ning Jing put down the pen, got up and hugged Zheng'er.
"Where's aunt?" Zheng'er lay on Ping An's shoulder, looking at the rain outside.
"Entered the palace." Ning Jing said.
Zheng'er asked, "Is it fun in the palace?"
Ning Jing shook his head, "It's not fun."
Zheng'er asked with a smile, "When will Uncle Ning and Auntie give birth to a younger sister for me?"
Ning Jing thought for a while and said, "When your aunt comes back, ask her."
……
After Su Liang saluted, he was given a seat, right where Nian Jincheng was attacking.
Nian Jincheng lowered his head, not looking at Su Liang.
Duanmuyi said, "Second brother, explain the matter to Su Liang."
Su Liang listened calmly to Nian Jincheng's recounting of what had happened back then, saying that it was Xiao Mulian's intention to invite Su Yuanzhou to visit, and the death of the Su family had nothing to do with him.
Su Liang frowned slightly after listening.
Duanmuyi didn't get angry and pretended to be arrogant, "I asked you all to come today, just to clarify the misunderstanding, so as not to cause any trouble in the future. Su Liang, what do you want to say?"
Su Liang said in a respectful voice, "If you go back to the emperor, my grandfather taught me since I was a child that you should first check yourself when you encounter problems, and don't speak without evidence."
Ever since Duanmu Sheng saw Su Liang appear, he had a bad premonition.Hearing Su Liang's words, he felt even more weird.
Duanmuyi nodded, "Your grandfather is right."
Su Liang continued, "Regarding the death of my family members, I do suspect that it was murder, not suicide."
Hearing the words, Duan Mucheng blurted out, "Didn't you say that there is no evidence to speak nonsense? You say that, what evidence is there?"
Su Liang's face was calm, "Returning to His Royal Highness, I was injured and lost my memory before, but recently my memory has recovered a bit, and I remembered what my grandfather said before he was alive."
Duanmu Cheng's face was obviously a little stiff, so he heard Su Liang continue, "Your Majesty, the real culprit of my family's matter should not be His Highness the Second Prince, but someone else."
Duanmu Yi was obviously stunned.Obviously, he knew that matter well, so he was surprised by Su Liang's words.
Nian Jincheng looked happy, "Father, it's all a misunderstanding! The death of the Su family really has nothing to do with my children!"
Su Liang sighed deeply, "Your Majesty, my grandfather was invited by the people of the Second Prince's Mansion to treat the former Second Prince's Concubine that day. Because the First Second Prince's Concubine had an accident, my grandfather was very flustered after returning to the mansion, and mentioned that the Second Prince's Concubine was pregnant. One dead and two dead, but he has no idea what happened!"
Hearing the phrase "one dead body, two lives", Duan Mucheng accidentally knocked over the teacup on the table, and Duan Muyi frowned fiercely, "What did you say?"
Su Liang lowered her eyes and said in a respectful voice, "When the second concubine died, she was pregnant. My grandfather couldn't have misunderstood it. This is also the reason why I feel that something is wrong. It seems that even the emperor doesn't know about it. His Royal Highness the Second Prince didn't mention it just now. If he didn't know, it would be even more strange. Weichen's grandfather was very puzzled at the beginning, why did the second prince and concubine have an accident. Weichen still can't figure it out. She is happy, It was a very good thing, why did people disappear suddenly, and there are so many imperial doctors who refused to invite, but my grandfather was invited to come to the door."
Duanmuyi's face darkened, "Second, what's going on? Your wife is pregnant, don't you even know?"
Nian Jincheng looked flustered, "I know... I don't... I don't know what's going on..." He spoke incoherently, looking at Duanmu Sheng subconsciously.
"I feel that His Royal Highness the Second Prince may also be kept in the dark." Su Liang said with eyes fixed on her eyes, "I guarantee with my life that my grandfather never harmed the Second Prince and Concubine, and caused the Second Prince and Concubine to die. Someone else And that person killed my whole family out of ulterior motives. I implore the emperor to allow me to investigate this matter, not only for my family, but also for the sake of the second prince and concubine!"
"Nonsense!" Duan Mucheng's face was sullen, "Father, don't believe her! This is just a one-sided story! There is no proof and no evidence! If the second sibling was pregnant before death, how could the second brother not know?"
Su Liang frowned, "His Royal Highness, I have absolutely no lies. If you don't believe me, you can open the coffin for an autopsy, and it can be found out. If Your Highness the Second Prince knows that the second prince and concubine are pregnant, and that one corpse and two lives are such a serious matter, you will be angry." For me, it is also human nature. But the emperor's heir was murdered, such a big matter, why didn't the emperor Bingming?"
"Second brother, let me ask you again, was Xiao Mulian pregnant when she died?" Duanmu Yi asked sharply.
Nian Jincheng shrank his neck, "I...I don't know."
Su Liang frowned, "Since my grandfather diagnosed that the first concubine is pregnant, the second concubine herself must know best, what she didn't tell the second prince... I don't dare to speculate, but there must be something strange about it. "
Su Liang's words were full of hints, so he almost said that since Duanmu Ao claimed that he didn't know his wife was pregnant, it must be that Xiao Mulian stole someone behind his back, gave him a cuckold, and conceived the adulterer's child. Fearing that the matter would be revealed, the husband not only killed Xiao Mulian ruthlessly, but also silenced Su Yuanzhou's family.
After all, judging from the current information, this is the only possibility.
Su Liang never targeted Duanmu Ao from the beginning to the end, and even claimed that she thought Duanmu Ao had nothing to do with the death of the Su family.
Duanmu Cheng thought it was weird at the beginning, but at this moment, it was as if struck by lightning, and he finally realized that Su Liang came after him today!Good job playing the trick!
As for who the "adulterate man" would be, although Su Liang didn't mention a single word, every sentence contained deep meaning.Who else has the guts to have an affair with Xiao Mulian, and kill Xiao Mulian to cover up the scandal, and it is impossible for Duanmu Ao not to know but endure all of it, who is still trying to cover up and defend it?
Su Liang "kindly" made clear for Duanmu Ao, and never said anything against Duanmu Sheng. He only told the few clues left by Su Yuanzhou before his death and her questions, but pointed all the blame at Duanmu Sheng without any trace. .
Duanmu Sheng's unconcealable panic also betrayed him.
Not to mention that before Su Liang came, the two brothers Duanmu Sheng and "Duanmu Ao" faced Duanmu Yi's questioning and gave answers full of mistakes.
Duanmuyi's icy eyes fell on Duanmucheng's face, and he spoke again, but the words were addressed to Su Liang, "Su Liang, I will arrange someone to investigate the matter of your family, step back."
Su Liang got up, saluted and left.
The door of the imperial study room was closed, and Duanmu Yi grabbed the inkstone and smashed it at Duanmu Sheng's head, "Bastard! You did a good job!"
(End of this chapter)
It's going to rain.
After Su Liang left the Second Prince's Mansion, he rode home alone.

Su Liang held the teacup and smiled, "Are you worried about me, or someone?"
Yan Yu said seriously, "All of them."
"I'm fine, he's fine for now." Su Liang said.

It's just that Nian Jincheng has never done it, but he has enough brains and a lot of courage. The previous apprehension was more because he didn't want to spoil Su Liang's affairs.
Now, he has not been found to be a fake and has "been getting better".
Just now Duanmu Sheng thought that "Duanmu Ao" brought up Su Liang's trickery on impulse.
But in fact, Nian Jincheng did it on purpose.
Seeing that Nian Jincheng was silent, Duanmu Yi looked at Duanmu Sheng again, "Does the prince know?"
Duanmu Cheng narrowed his eyes, concealed his panic, shook his head and said, "I don't know about this matter. Maybe Su Yuanzhou once healed the second younger sibling, so let the second younger sibling treat him."
Hearing Duanmucheng's "clear instructions", Nian Jincheng nodded immediately, "Yes! It was Su Yuanzhou that Xiao Mulian asked to invite. I don't know why she must invite Su Yuanzhou!"
From the beginning to the end, Duanmu Yi saw the obvious panic and cooperation of the two brothers.
"Since you all said it was all a misunderstanding, let Su Liang come over and explain clearly." Duanmu Yi said in a cold voice, and ordered Su Liang to enter the palace.
Duanmu Sheng wanted to say that it had nothing to do with him, please leave first, but he was afraid that if he left, "Duanmu Ao" would say something he shouldn't say, and the situation would get out of control, so he still sat there, feeling like he was on pins and needles.
"Second brother, get up." Duanmu Yi's voice could not hear any emotion.
Nian Jincheng thanked En and sat down opposite Duanmu Sheng.He was a little uncertain about Duanmu Yi's mind.Having said so much, Duanmu Yi couldn't have been unaware of something suspicious, but he didn't investigate further.
But Nian Jincheng hoped for Su Liang to come.With Su Liang around, he would feel more at ease.
Both the Queen Mother and the Empress sent people over to inquire. Duanmu Yi said that he was discussing with his two sons and that he was not free, and he asked someone to set up a meal. It seemed that he really believed their words and planned to reconcile their conflict with Su Liang.
Nian Jincheng didn't know what taboos Duanmu Ao had, and was afraid of showing his flaws, so he barely moved his chopsticks, saying that his chest was tight and he couldn't eat, so he drank some tea.
……
When the people from the palace arrived at the Su Mansion, Su Liang was copying books seriously.Not only can you practice calligraphy, but it is also equivalent to reading medical books carefully.
Knowing that Duanmu Yi ordered her to enter the palace, Su Liang changed into a coat, habitually brought a medicine box, and went out with an umbrella.
Ning Jing sat by the window, watched Su Liang's figure disappear into the rain, looked away, and continued to copy the book.
"Uncle Ning..." Zheng'er woke up and came out of the inner room with bare feet.
Ning Jing put down the pen, got up and hugged Zheng'er.
"Where's aunt?" Zheng'er lay on Ping An's shoulder, looking at the rain outside.
"Entered the palace." Ning Jing said.
Zheng'er asked, "Is it fun in the palace?"
Ning Jing shook his head, "It's not fun."
Zheng'er asked with a smile, "When will Uncle Ning and Auntie give birth to a younger sister for me?"
Ning Jing thought for a while and said, "When your aunt comes back, ask her."
……
After Su Liang saluted, he was given a seat, right where Nian Jincheng was attacking.
Nian Jincheng lowered his head, not looking at Su Liang.
Duanmuyi said, "Second brother, explain the matter to Su Liang."
Su Liang listened calmly to Nian Jincheng's recounting of what had happened back then, saying that it was Xiao Mulian's intention to invite Su Yuanzhou to visit, and the death of the Su family had nothing to do with him.
Su Liang frowned slightly after listening.
Duanmuyi didn't get angry and pretended to be arrogant, "I asked you all to come today, just to clarify the misunderstanding, so as not to cause any trouble in the future. Su Liang, what do you want to say?"
Su Liang said in a respectful voice, "If you go back to the emperor, my grandfather taught me since I was a child that you should first check yourself when you encounter problems, and don't speak without evidence."
Ever since Duanmu Sheng saw Su Liang appear, he had a bad premonition.Hearing Su Liang's words, he felt even more weird.
Duanmuyi nodded, "Your grandfather is right."
Su Liang continued, "Regarding the death of my family members, I do suspect that it was murder, not suicide."
Hearing the words, Duan Mucheng blurted out, "Didn't you say that there is no evidence to speak nonsense? You say that, what evidence is there?"
Su Liang's face was calm, "Returning to His Royal Highness, I was injured and lost my memory before, but recently my memory has recovered a bit, and I remembered what my grandfather said before he was alive."
Duanmu Cheng's face was obviously a little stiff, so he heard Su Liang continue, "Your Majesty, the real culprit of my family's matter should not be His Highness the Second Prince, but someone else."
Duanmu Yi was obviously stunned.Obviously, he knew that matter well, so he was surprised by Su Liang's words.
Nian Jincheng looked happy, "Father, it's all a misunderstanding! The death of the Su family really has nothing to do with my children!"
Su Liang sighed deeply, "Your Majesty, my grandfather was invited by the people of the Second Prince's Mansion to treat the former Second Prince's Concubine that day. Because the First Second Prince's Concubine had an accident, my grandfather was very flustered after returning to the mansion, and mentioned that the Second Prince's Concubine was pregnant. One dead and two dead, but he has no idea what happened!"
Hearing the phrase "one dead body, two lives", Duan Mucheng accidentally knocked over the teacup on the table, and Duan Muyi frowned fiercely, "What did you say?"
Su Liang lowered her eyes and said in a respectful voice, "When the second concubine died, she was pregnant. My grandfather couldn't have misunderstood it. This is also the reason why I feel that something is wrong. It seems that even the emperor doesn't know about it. His Royal Highness the Second Prince didn't mention it just now. If he didn't know, it would be even more strange. Weichen's grandfather was very puzzled at the beginning, why did the second prince and concubine have an accident. Weichen still can't figure it out. She is happy, It was a very good thing, why did people disappear suddenly, and there are so many imperial doctors who refused to invite, but my grandfather was invited to come to the door."
Duanmuyi's face darkened, "Second, what's going on? Your wife is pregnant, don't you even know?"
Nian Jincheng looked flustered, "I know... I don't... I don't know what's going on..." He spoke incoherently, looking at Duanmu Sheng subconsciously.
"I feel that His Royal Highness the Second Prince may also be kept in the dark." Su Liang said with eyes fixed on her eyes, "I guarantee with my life that my grandfather never harmed the Second Prince and Concubine, and caused the Second Prince and Concubine to die. Someone else And that person killed my whole family out of ulterior motives. I implore the emperor to allow me to investigate this matter, not only for my family, but also for the sake of the second prince and concubine!"
"Nonsense!" Duan Mucheng's face was sullen, "Father, don't believe her! This is just a one-sided story! There is no proof and no evidence! If the second sibling was pregnant before death, how could the second brother not know?"
Su Liang frowned, "His Royal Highness, I have absolutely no lies. If you don't believe me, you can open the coffin for an autopsy, and it can be found out. If Your Highness the Second Prince knows that the second prince and concubine are pregnant, and that one corpse and two lives are such a serious matter, you will be angry." For me, it is also human nature. But the emperor's heir was murdered, such a big matter, why didn't the emperor Bingming?"
"Second brother, let me ask you again, was Xiao Mulian pregnant when she died?" Duanmu Yi asked sharply.
Nian Jincheng shrank his neck, "I...I don't know."
Su Liang frowned, "Since my grandfather diagnosed that the first concubine is pregnant, the second concubine herself must know best, what she didn't tell the second prince... I don't dare to speculate, but there must be something strange about it. "
Su Liang's words were full of hints, so he almost said that since Duanmu Ao claimed that he didn't know his wife was pregnant, it must be that Xiao Mulian stole someone behind his back, gave him a cuckold, and conceived the adulterer's child. Fearing that the matter would be revealed, the husband not only killed Xiao Mulian ruthlessly, but also silenced Su Yuanzhou's family.
After all, judging from the current information, this is the only possibility.
Su Liang never targeted Duanmu Ao from the beginning to the end, and even claimed that she thought Duanmu Ao had nothing to do with the death of the Su family.
Duanmu Cheng thought it was weird at the beginning, but at this moment, it was as if struck by lightning, and he finally realized that Su Liang came after him today!Good job playing the trick!
As for who the "adulterate man" would be, although Su Liang didn't mention a single word, every sentence contained deep meaning.Who else has the guts to have an affair with Xiao Mulian, and kill Xiao Mulian to cover up the scandal, and it is impossible for Duanmu Ao not to know but endure all of it, who is still trying to cover up and defend it?
Su Liang "kindly" made clear for Duanmu Ao, and never said anything against Duanmu Sheng. He only told the few clues left by Su Yuanzhou before his death and her questions, but pointed all the blame at Duanmu Sheng without any trace. .
Duanmu Sheng's unconcealable panic also betrayed him.
Not to mention that before Su Liang came, the two brothers Duanmu Sheng and "Duanmu Ao" faced Duanmu Yi's questioning and gave answers full of mistakes.
Duanmuyi's icy eyes fell on Duanmucheng's face, and he spoke again, but the words were addressed to Su Liang, "Su Liang, I will arrange someone to investigate the matter of your family, step back."
Su Liang got up, saluted and left.
The door of the imperial study room was closed, and Duanmu Yi grabbed the inkstone and smashed it at Duanmu Sheng's head, "Bastard! You did a good job!"
