Chapter 617 Believe in the justice of heaven
Su Ran was terrified when he heard that.

"These two people are simply daring! For such a big matter, they dare to take all the credit for themselves, and they don't give it to Brother Quan at all?"

Of course she knows that in these places below, there are endless things like grabbing credit.But it's the first time she's seen someone like this magistrate Jiang who directly snatched everything away, coerced and lured Brother Quan to keep silent, and forced him to knock his teeth down and swallow.

This method is too simple and crude.

Luo Huan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. "Now, they have imprisoned my husband and surrounded the county government office. They actually planned to torture my husband directly. I didn't plan to escape, but the children are still young, and I can't bear to suffer them, so when the incident happened I brought the children here. Now, sister, please take care of the children for us for a few days. After the husband's business is over, we will come and pick them up."

"You want to go back?" Su Ran frowned.

Luo Huan nodded firmly. "The reason why this happened to my husband is because he came here. And he chose to be an official here because of me. He has already done this for me, how can I live up to his affection? It's just that I'm a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, so now I can only go back and accompany him through this difficult time."

"Actually, when this happens, we can ask your brother-in-law to come forward..."

Su Ran said softly, not wanting Luo Huan to shake her head immediately: "No need. There is no need for brother-in-law to come forward for such a trivial matter. Husband is an official of the court anyway, and Jiang Zhifu is not qualified to rule him. He will demote her husband or How it is, all these must be written to the emperor, and then the emperor will make a decision. When the time comes..."

She sneered again. "He didn't even have the guts to kill my husband, otherwise he wouldn't have any good fruit to eat!"

Having said that, Su Ran is still not at ease with his younger brother.

Brother Quan is clearly following the advice of Jiang Zhifu and his brother-in-law.Since these two people can do such a shameless thing, then they will definitely intensify in the future.After all, taking the credit for this is tantamount to building a ladder for their official career, and it is no problem for them to get promoted immediately and make a fortune.That being the case, how could they give Brother Quan a chance to make trouble?

However, Brother Quan has a cold temperament and never bows his head.The prefect of Jiang has read countless people, and at a glance, he knows that Brother Quan is a tough nut to crack.Then, in order to make him subdue honestly, Brother Quan had to suffer some flesh and blood.

This child, how much has he suffered all these years?I can't stand being a sister anymore.

Moreover, it is only natural for Li Er to come forward now.Originally, that potato was brought to the northwest by Brother Quan and the others, and everyone in Wushan Village can testify to this.Coupled with Li Er's identity, there is no need to worry about not being able to make those two people confess their crimes honestly, which will also save Brother Quan from suffering.

Luo Huan still shook his head: "This decision was made by the husband. He said that he believed in the justice of heaven. Since the prefect Jiang and his brother-in-law took advantage of their privileges to rob him of the fruits of his hard work and are still beating him up now, then if you sister and brother-in-law Using privileges to help him reverse the case, what is the difference between this nature and those two people? He is unwilling to take such a shortcut."

After all, she entrusted the two to Su Ran, and then went back by car without hesitation.

Su Ran had no choice but to watch her figure leave.Then, she hurriedly called someone again: "Go quickly and check for me, what's the situation with the soil potato case in Qinzhou Mansion!"

Although Brother Quan and Luo Huan expressed their attitude that they would not be allowed to intervene, how could Su Ran and Li Er really sit idly by?
She also quickly asked someone to tell Li Er the news.Li Er came back from the barracks when he was free.

"This prefect of Qinzhou is the distant cousin of the queen's natal family." This was the first sentence he said to Su Ran.

Su Ran's heart immediately sank heavily.

Sure enough, those who can work in this border fortress must either have excellent skills or have excellent connections.The prefect of Qinzhou impressively occupied the latter.

It's no wonder that the emperor would praise them in public at the court meeting.I'm afraid this is one of the ways the emperor tried to promote his own people.

After all, the emperor succeeded to the throne after only two years as the crown prince, and he didn't have all the manpower on hand, so he was in the top position in a daze.Many people who were used in important places were left by the late emperor.He didn't really trust those people.But if you want to cultivate your own manpower, it can't be done overnight.Now it's so easy for Jiang Zhifu and his brother-in-law to make such an 'achievement' at this critical moment. Of course the emperor is happy, and he is not hesitating to praise them.

It's just that if it comes like this, then things won't be easy to handle.

Su Ran looked at Li Er: "The emperor is the son of heaven. Since he has already praised them at the court meeting, it is very difficult to take back those words. Now, this person is actually related to the queen... Let's think about it." If you reverse the case for Brother Quan, you will offend both the emperor and the queen. I understand why that person is so confident."

He gathered at the right time, place and people, and this act hit the heart of the emperor and empress.If nothing else, the emperor and empress would choose to shield him!
"But it's just a distant cousin." Li Er said in a low voice, "The emperor has just ascended the throne, and he is still young. He wants to achieve a great ambition. This ideal is good, but it is too difficult to achieve. Now , if he made the wrong choice at the beginning, then his path in the future will be completely crooked. He knows this very well."

Su Ran's heart skipped a beat again.

"What do you mean by that?" She asked cautiously.

Li Er looked at her. "I think what Brother Quan said is right. Let's not interfere in this matter for the time being. The way of heaven is fair, and Jiang Zhifu can't do anything to him for the time being. Now, I want to see how our newly enthroned emperor chooses gone."

He was planning to gamble with his brother's life!

Su Ran slowly clenched his hands into fists. "What would you think if the emperor chose to justify Brother Quan's name? What would you do if the emperor chose to go with the flow? Also, if he chose He Xini, he continued to praise Jiang Zhifu and his brother-in-law while continuing to praise Jiang Zhifu and his brother-in-law. Take Brother Quan out of prison and give him a promotion in another place as a comfort, what will you do?"

"If he achieves the first point, then I will naturally respect him as the emperor and continue to work for him. But if it is the latter two, then he is not worthy of my loyalty. From now on, I will be loyal The target is the people at the border, I won't take another look at this emperor." Li Er said in a deep voice.

After all, he was still gambling!Moreover, it is a gamble with the whole brother!
"Is there no other way? Brother Quan is suffering in prison now!" Su Ran said softly.

The man's big palm immediately supported her shoulders.

"When did you become so courageous?" he asked her.

Su Ran was shocked.

That's right, back then in Wushan Village, he was framed by Mr. Chen and the others, and spent half a month in jail during the New Year's Eve. Didn't she not worry, instead, she took care of the house calmly?But now that so many years have passed, how come he has regressed?

Su Ran smiled wryly. "Maybe it's because it's all about my brother! This kid has suffered too much over the years, and the officialdom is dangerous, far from what we met in the village. Of course I can't bear it." Think more about it.”

"Don't worry, he's definitely fine." Li Er patted her on the shoulder.

Su Ran looked up at him.

The man fixedly looked into her eyes, and said word by word: "I'm just waiting for the emperor's reaction now. If he remains upright as before, then we don't need to do anything about this matter. But if he obeys his will and decides to go If there is a shortcut, then I will find a way to rescue him."

After Su Ran heard this, she couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat.

"Don't mess around!" She quickly grabbed his hand.

The man's eyes flashed, and he nodded. "Ok, I know."

Prefect Jiang knew nothing about the relationship between Brother Quan and Su Ran.He only thought that Brother Quan was a scholar from a farming family, who had gone through hardships to obtain fame, and then brought his wife and children to take up the post-this is what Brother Quan told them from the beginning.Therefore, he didn't take Brother Quan seriously at all.

Put him in prison and ask the cell bosses to torture him severely. When Brother Quan was knocked unconscious, they grabbed Brother Quan's hands and dipped them in cinnabar to sign the confession. It is settled.

Then, with the plea in hand, he packed up with his brother-in-law, and planned to go to Beijing to have a face-to-face report on his duties!
And before going to the capital, they chose to pass by Gansu Town very wisely, and came to visit Li Er, the King of the West of Town.
