Phoenix Nine Heavens

Chapter 271 The Thatched Cottage Gets the Truth

When Ling Xiang heard Su Xuan's words, she went into every detail, as if Su Xuan was there at the time. Ling Xiang was immediately surprised, but on the surprised face was more fear, because she knew how to deceive Su Xuan. Such a senior court official, what kind of result is waiting for her.

Just when she was about to kneel down and admit her mistake, Zhao Dongchen walked up to Su Xuan, immediately stretched out her hand to grab Ling Xiang, and then said to Su Xuan: "Master Su, you said that Grandpa Ling Xiang is because of the Gongmen If there is a conflict over grain collection, then his enemy should be a member of the Gongmen family. How could she not fight with the people in the Gongmen family, but follow the people in the Gongmen family to the inn where you live? Could it be that Ling Xiang would be a Extremely cold-blooded person, let the enemy do nothing but follow the official to do these useless things?"

Zhao Dongchen was obviously trying to quibble, but his sophistry was not groundless. After all, the girl Ling Xiang's grandfather died in front of someone in the palace. It stands to reason that she should go to the yamen to sue the one who killed her grandfather. People, but they didn't run up to Su Xuan and spread this outrageous lie.

That's why Zhao Dongchen came to Su Xuan so confidently, and retorted to Su Xuan: "The lower official wants to ask Mr. Shi, why is that?"

Hearing Zhao Dongchen's words, Ling Xiang's nervousness disappeared in an instant, as if the previous frustration was reversed in an instant, and the situation was reversed. It was no longer her who should have a headache, but Su Xuan and the others.

"I think there is only one possibility, and that is that Ling Xiang is not the old man's granddaughter, but a girl deliberately found by someone to perform a play in front of the official, and the purpose is to give the official's guards Create trouble, so that I can't continue to live in the city with the guards to achieve some people's goals!" Of course Su Xuan knew that things were not as simple as it seemed, and Ling Xiang's indifference to the old man and the death of the old man formed a stark contrast. In contrast, this has to make Su Xuan suspect that Ling Xiang, the old man's granddaughter, has a different identity.

"Master Su is pointing fingers at Sang and Huai, and he means something. However, you can't just rely on your conjecture to investigate the case and judge the prison. You have to look at the evidence. I don't know if Mr. Su has a way to prove his inference?" Zhao Dongchen knew that Su Xuan was not. It was easy to deal with, but he was not willing to admit defeat like this, not to mention that the contest was still going on, it didn't mean that he lost now, so he said something like this to Su Xuan, insisting on competing with Su Xuan .

"You want evidence, okay! I will give you the evidence!" Seeing that Zhao Dongchen still looked like a villain, Su Xuan immediately continued to talk to Zhao Dongchen, "When I entered this hut and saw the old man's body For a moment, the blood on the old man's face was not cleaned up. If Ling Xiang was the old man's biological granddaughter, she definitely couldn't bear to see her grandfather walking around with this dirty face.

Second, although this thatched cottage is dilapidated, it is an exaggeration to say that it shelters from the wind and rain. It is not surprising at all. After all, it is a poor family. A place where we depend on each other, why is there nothing used by any girl here?What makes me feel even more strange is that there is only one bed in this room, and there is only one set of bowls and chopsticks next to it?
Could it be that Ling Xiang doesn't use bowls and chopsticks for eating beans these years?No bed? "

Su Xuan pointed out what she felt was abnormal, and then looked at Zhao Dongchen, wanting to see what else Zhao Dongchen could say in front of these evidences.

"Well said, I almost believed it, but Mrs. Su, their family is so poor that even the bowls and chopsticks are considered luxury goods. It's not surprising that they can't afford another one. Besides, look at Ling Xiang is still wearing her grandfather's shabby men's clothes, which is enough to prove that they are living in a very poor life and can't afford clothes at all, Mr. Su, do you think what I said makes sense?" Zhao Dongchen panicked when he heard this. Then continue to talk to Su Xuan.

"No matter how poor the family is, it's impossible not to prepare the bowls and chopsticks. Well, as Mr. Zhao said, they are too poor to afford the bowls and chopsticks, so there should always be something else to replace them. Use a pair of bowls and chopsticks?" Su Xuan continued to argue to Zhao Dongchen, "Besides, the clothes, I'm afraid the old man didn't wear them too much, do you want me to let Ling Xiang take them off and wear them with the deceased?" Can you compare the length and width of the clothes with your body?"

Su Xuan was very careful when examining the corpse, and she was basically able to determine the body width and length of the deceased. As for the tattered clothes Ling Xiang was wearing, her eyes also had a measure, so she was very sure about the body. Zhao Dongchen said.

This made Zhao Dongchen speechless, and for a while he didn't know how to argue, so he said to Su Xuan: "Master Su is so eloquent, I can't argue with you, since Master Su thinks so, I won't What can I say!"

After saying this, Zhao Dongchen immediately turned around, took Song Butou and the others away in a panic, and did not stay here any longer.

Seeing Zhao Dongchen leave, Su Xuan walked towards Ling Xiang, and immediately said to Ling Xiang: "Now, are you still planning to tell the truth?"

Su Xuan has judged that Ling Xiang has nothing to do with the old man. He is neither the victim nor the party involved. Originally, it doesn't matter whether Ling Xiang said it or not, but she still wants to know how Zhao Dongchen set up such a situation and invite her into the urn. of.

"My lord, my little girl was also forced, please forgive my sin!" Seeing that Zhao Dongchen had left, and Su Xuan was so powerful, there was nowhere to hide the secret she wanted to hide, and finally she had some ideological struggles In the end, she still chose to kneel in front of Su Xuan to admit her mistake.

"As long as you tell the truth, I can consider mitigating your guilt!" Seeing that Ling Xiang was afraid, Su Xuan immediately said to Ling Xiang, and pointed out that she needed Ling Xiang to tell the truth.

Ling Xiang immediately said to Su Xuan: "Your Excellency is wise, it is indeed as you said, the young girl is not the granddaughter of this old man, but a little beggar living on the street with no one to support, Master Zhao promised to give the little girl a chance to eat Let the little girl pretend to be the granddaughter of this old man, and go to the inn to find you, Lord Su. As for how this old man died, the little girl really doesn't know, so please be careful!"

Ling Xiang confessed everything, not daring to hide anything.

"Miss, this surname Zhao Dong is obviously intentional, we can't let him go easily!" Hearing this, Xiao Jing immediately said with righteous indignation, wishing to clean up the fishing master immediately.

"Forget it, we don't have any rights in Yuzhou, so we can't do anything to him!" Su Xuan knew very well what she should and shouldn't do, so she said this to the small mirror.
