Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 421 421 Doubt

The entire Su family looked like it had been looted by robbers.

Finally, he returned to his residence before Cang Xiuxuan. He washed away all the blood in the space before lying back on the bed. Looking at the boxes of extra money in his space, he smiled like a fool.

Previously, she was thinking about when she would earn her first hundred thousand, but now she has been given several hundred thousand directly.

It was all in cash, so I was very happy.

Song Chen slept so sweetly this time that even the boiling going to Beijing couldn't wake her up.

"Have you heard? There was a tragedy of annihilation of the family."

"What! Destroy the whole family! So cruel."

"I've heard, I've heard, it's the Su Mansion. The scene is simply unbearable to watch. It's so miserable..."

"Have you gone to see it? Who did this? He was so cruel and wiped out the whole family!"

"Hey~ who knows..."

Early in the morning, people in Beijing were discussing this matter, and things like selling vegetables and cooking were almost forgotten.

At the height of the excitement, soldiers marched through the streets.

He looked majestic and had a chill on his face.

The people who had been chatting animatedly before fell silent instantly.

Watching them carefully, fearing that one bad move might lead to bad luck.

"Hurry up, there's an order from above, and the case must be solved within three days!"

One of the generals on horseback rode forward and urged.

Such a big event happened in Shangjing, and it was directly reported to the emperor's ears, and the emperor directly ordered the case to be solved quickly.

The people below don't dare to waste a moment, that's the Su Mansion!
But as soon as these people arrived at Su Mansion, they were frightened by the situation in front of them.

After opening the door, what I saw were corpses and bloodstains, especially at the door. It seemed that they all ran out and were killed here.

"You guys stay here while the others go inside in three groups to check the situation. Come and report as soon as possible!"

Now that the emperor knew about this scene, he didn't know why he got so angry.

As they slowly learned more about it, they discovered that the situation in the Su Mansion was even worse than they imagined, with not a single person left alive.

And the entire Su Mansion was almost looted.

"Everyone is on standby. No one is allowed to come in or out. This general will immediately enter the palace to report to the Holy One."

"Yes!"

Everyone knew the seriousness of the matter. This was Prime Minister Su. With such a big thing happening in his house, he didn't know what kind of bloody storm was going to happen in the court.

They were thinking like this. The general who was returning to the palace was also thinking about how to tell the emperor about this matter. They all knew the status of Prime Minister Su in the emperor's heart. Right now...

This errand is quite difficult to handle.

But no matter how difficult it is to handle, now that the matter is in his hands, he will finish it.

It's just that this matter will still be handed over to their imperial army in the future, and Shuntian Mansion can no longer handle it.

He returned to the palace with great anxiety and immediately faced the saint.

Before he could say anything, the emperor took the lead and asked, "But Su Mansion?"

The news he had received previously was uncertain, and all evidence indicated that something had happened at Prime Minister Su's house.

When the general heard the emperor's question, he took a deep breath and said, "Back to the emperor, it is indeed the Su Mansion."

After saying these words, his expression became more solemn, "The general has checked the entire Su Mansion, and there is no one alive. Prime Minister Su and Mrs. Su are not found. Mr. Su... must not have returned to the capital yet." ."

The emperor's hand on the dragon throne suddenly tightened, "No one is alive!!! Such a thing happened at the emperor's feet. Are you all just freeloaders? That's still my prime minister!"

If something like this happened, the emperor would undoubtedly see it as a challenge to his authority and a disregard for his majesty!

This is absolutely unacceptable to the extremely face-saving emperor.

When the emperor is angry, the world trembles. This sentence is true at all. Facing the emperor's great anger, the general kneeling below did not dare to move. Even his breathing became much lighter, for fear that he would be killed. The emperor was angry.

This really can't be blamed on them. The security in Beijing is the matter of Shuntian Prefecture, and their imperial army guards the palace.

And according to their methods, not to mention Shuntian Mansion, even their imperial army could not control this matter. He waited until the emperor's anger calmed down a little before he spoke again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, apart from the fact that there is no one left alive in the Su family, all the valuables in the entire family have been looted..."

They had seen people robbed like this before, but they had never seen someone robbed like this in Su Mansion.

"You mean you were robbed?" The emperor squinted at him.

Under such pressure, the commander of the Forbidden Army could not bear it, but now he had to bear it.

"The general guesses that this is the case. The details need to be carefully investigated."

None of them dared to speak too absolutely about this kind of thing. If something else happened during the investigation in the future, he would not be able to explain it clearly.

It has to be said that those who have been around the emperor for a long time are quite aware of the emperor's temper. In this situation and at this time, it is indeed very intriguing that something happened to the Su family.

"I want to know the movements of everyone in Su Mansion within one day!" The emperor believed it but didn't believe it either.

He trusts Prime Minister Su, but he has never trusted him absolutely. Although he didn't find anything unusual before, now this incident happened so suddenly that he couldn't stop thinking about it.

The Su family was wiped out, and none of the three masters found out...

The emperor always felt that something was in his mind, but he couldn't catch it.

The commander of the Forbidden Army could not say much about such a request. He could only explain everything he knew clearly, "Mrs. Su went out to the city to find the doctor but did not return. Su Ze fled to Beijing because of her marriage. As for Prime Minister Su, I will be worried." He has been tied up and his life or death is uncertain."

These speculations are not unfounded. The emperor also has such thoughts in his mind. Now that he said it like this, the emperor can figure it out and does not have too much doubts about the commander of the imperial army.

It’s just that these words must have a source.

"Since you said that, you must have a source. Tell me in detail."

The commander of the Forbidden Army cupped his fists and replied, "The general thinks that a big tree attracts wind. Mr. Su's Liuweizhai has opened many shops in our Da Rong. Everyone knows that this is a profitable business. I am afraid that someone has been eyeing the Su family for a long time. Now is the time to start. , I’m afraid I got some news.”

He said the last sentence very vaguely, and even if the emperor heard it, he wouldn't ask any more questions.

But his words spoke to the emperor's heart. He would rather that something unexpected happened to Prime Minister Su than what he thought. After all, if a person he trusted so much rebelled, it would be a slap in the emperor's face.

"You only have three days."

The emperor did not continue to say anything to him. In the end, everything had to be done with the facts, "We must also find the whereabouts of Mrs. Su and Su Ze as soon as possible."

Only by finding the two of them can he feel completely at ease.

"Yes, the commander-in-chief is in command!"

The commander of the imperial army ordered to retreat.

Only the emperor and Manager Li were left in the palace. The emperor pinched his eyebrows helplessly. The recent events had made him anxious.

"Li Fu, did you say before that Mrs. Su left the city in a light carriage?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I remember clearly that Mrs. Su left Shangjing in a carriage with two servants. She did not carry a large amount of luggage in the carriage."

Manager Li knew what the emperor meant when he asked him, so he quickly told everything he knew.

"Does the Emperor doubt Prime Minister Su..."

"talk later."

Before Mr. Li could finish speaking, the emperor interrupted him. He didn't want to think about the worst aspect of this matter.

"In addition, find some people to secretly investigate the recent situation outside the city. If any abnormalities are found, report them immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this servant will do it now."

This time, Manager Li found all the people when he left the house. After explaining the emperor's intention clearly, he went back immediately without wasting a second.

Later in the evening, Manager Li sent another ginseng soup.

"Your Majesty, you have been working hard today. This servant has asked someone to prepare ginseng soup without permission. Your Majesty, please take a few sips."

This thing came at the right time. The emperor was indeed very tired at the moment. He took the ginseng soup from Manager Li's hand and immediately took two sips.

After finishing the drink, he didn't continue. He thought about it and put it aside.

This ginseng was sent over by Prime Minister Su. I felt comfortable drinking it before, but now I no longer feel that way.

Did something really happen to his good prime minister, or did he betray him?
It's still unknown.

If it was betrayal, how could he explain the things in the Su family? He knew the situation of the Su family very well. Su Ze had indeed made a lot of money for the Su family in these years, and even the money he paid for filial piety was not A small sum.

It would not be unreasonable to say that the Su family was being targeted.

But no matter what the explanation is, where did those things go?

If there were criminal thieves, how did they take these things away?

In other words, how did Prime Minister Su and the others leave Beijing with these things? It happened quite suddenly. Even if they prepared in advance, all they could take away was gold and silver.

Gold and silver! ! !

By the way, gold and silver!
When the emperor thought of this, he suddenly felt that he understood.

"Li Fu, send someone to the Su family quickly to find the Su family's treasury!"

As long as the Su family's treasury is found, there will be more clues to this problem.

"That's all, I'll leave the palace myself!"

The emperor thought for a while and realized that this matter had to be seen with his own eyes to be true.

Manager Li was frightened by the emperor's idea, "Your Majesty, you must not do this. Have you forgotten? Su Chang thought that the house might have been robbed by Jiangyang thieves, and it is not safe to go to the capital at the moment."

The emperor went out in person, if something happened...

The emperor sneered, "I don't believe they have such a heavy burden."

As long as they dare to take action, it proves that their purpose is not money.

Besides, he must be fully prepared before leaving the palace.
