The first daughter is not bad, the prince does not love

Chapter 271
Elder Su said: "I was afraid of being punished by my wife, so I didn't dare to report to the official and didn't dare to go home. I wanted to get through this period, so I pretended to send the money to Qingzhou."

"Oh... so you plan to lie to your master? Mrs. Mei, such a liar, you must be suspicious of what he says." Lin Siran seized on Su Lao Si's words again.

Elder Su said: "My lord, I did lie about this matter, but I would never dare to lie about a matter where human life is at stake."

"I don't think so? If you didn't lie, why didn't you take the initiative to stand up when Mother Chun came to identify you just now? You ran away after being recognized. If you weren't caught back, you don't know where to hide!" Lin Siran said.

Mr. Su spoke plausibly, and said, "Aren't I afraid that my wife will know that I'm back? I originally came back to Beijing secretly, so naturally I don't want to be recognized."

Lin Siran nodded, and said: "It makes sense, your money was cut off, why did you keep the finger wrench in your hand? This finger wrench is a reward from the madam, right?"

Fourth Su quickly hid his hands and said, "No...it's not worth much, it's fake."

"Really? Fake? I'll take a look." Lin Siran stretched out her hand with a smile.

The Fourth Su refused and said, "There's nothing to see, it's just a broken finger."

"Aren't you afraid that people will see you if you break your fingers?" Lin Sizan asked, "The person who said he had encountered a robbery, but was wearing gold and silver, not only the fingers, but also the jade around your waist. The bandit didn't snatch it from you?"

"You are going to Qingzhou with a huge sum of money. The journey is far away. How dare you dress in such a high-profile way? It is clear that people will rob you. You are not an ignorant child. You often travel far. How can you not understand this? The only explanation , that is, you have no plans to go far at all, and even your shoes are wearing thick-soled boots that are not suitable for long walks!"

Lin Siran exposed Su Lao Si's lie in one go.

"I... I bought it later." Fourth Su still wanted to force an explanation, but his lie was exposed even more.

"All the money on your body has been cut off. Where did you get the money to buy things? The sum of this finger ring and those things on your body is more than 1000 taels of silver." Lin Siran didn't believe it at all.

"Master Mei, he lied, so it can be seen that what Madam Chun said is true." Lin Siran turned to Mei Youwei and said.

Mei Youwei couldn't keep his eyes open and tell nonsense, so he could only say: "Come on, take Su Lao Si down and beat him!"

"My lord, please forgive me. The villain didn't lie, and the villain didn't hurt Madam Chun." The fourth child Su cried and refused to admit it.

Lin Ruran pointed at the soles of his shoes, and said, "If I'm not wrong, he hasn't been back to Lin's house in the past few days, and he hasn't changed his shoes, so the mud left on the soles can prove that he has indeed been to the river outside the west city. , you can compare it with the mud by the river, the mud there is different from other places, it is red mud!"

Sure enough, when everyone looked over, Mr. Su's four feet were indeed covered with red mud.

"He said that he has never been to the river outside the west city, how can this red mud be explained?" Lin Sizan looked at Mei Youwei.

Mei Youwei slapped the gavel, and scolded: "Bold fourth brother Su, dare to lie to me, pull me down and give me a hard [-] blow!"

Su Laosi was dragged down and beaten to pieces.

The master winked at Mei Youwei and nodded at him.

Lin Siran secretly said that it was not good, this fourth son Su might be silenced.

"Wait!" Lin Siran yelled again, "Master Mei, don't be in a hurry to execute the sentence. It is an indisputable fact that Su Laosi lied, let him sign it first."

"Hurry...what's the hurry, it's not too late to make a bet after the beating is over." Mei Youwei said.

"My lord, Mr. Su is so thin and weak. If he goes down to [-], he might lose half of his life. Can he still be held at that time? If Mr. Mei beats him, if he speaks back, your lord will be beaten into a trick. Always inappropriate, right?"

Lin Sizan knew what Mei Youwei was planning in her stomach, and she must not let Su Lao Si be silenced.

"Bold, how can I allow you, a defendant, to talk too much when I decide the case?" Mei Youwei was also angry, Lin Siran was too difficult to deal with.

Lin Siran immediately felt aggrieved, and said: "My lord, why am I so talkative, I am also thinking of you, Mr. Su made four tricks, and if he didn't get beaten, he can't frame up your lord and beat him into a trick, and he won't do anything to your lord's reputation." damaged."

Mei Youwei's mind drifted away when she saw her pitiful look again.

"Yes... that's right." Mei Youwei's eyeballs almost fell out.

Lin Siran was disgusted in his heart, but on the surface he had to continue to pretend.

"That's right, Master Lin, this guy is a capricious villain at first glance. You can't influence Master Mei's official voice for a villain. The sixth princess can watch here!"

Lin Siran reminded me.

Mrs. Mei thought, this sixth princess is His Majesty's most beloved daughter, if she said a few words in front of His Majesty, her official position might not be secure.

Mei Youwei had no choice but to say: "Fourth Su, are you still recruiting from the truth?"

As soon as Mr. Su stopped beating, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "My lord, I haven't harmed anyone, I really haven't, even if I've been outside the west city, it doesn't mean I went there on the day the old lady had an accident. "

"Where did you go, what did you do, and who did you meet that day?" Lin Siran took the opportunity to press.

Mei Youwei was not angry when she robbed her of the conversation, because after Lin Sizan finished asking, he smiled at him, and the smile made people feel fascinated.

Elder Su said: "I... I didn't go anywhere, I just stayed in the inn room and didn't go out all day."

"Which inn, can someone testify? Even if you don't go out, you still have to eat? I believe that as long as you are in the inn, someone will always see you." Lin Siran would not allow him to lie again.

"I... I didn't feel well that day, I didn't eat, and I lay in bed for a whole day, so there was no one to testify." Fourth Su simply pretended to be confused.

Lin Sizan said: "Which inn are you staying in? Mr. Mei is the most particular about conclusive evidence in handling cases, and he will not wrong you casually."

Mei Youwei was flattered by Lin Sizan's praise, stroked his beard, nodded and said, "That's true."

The master looked anxious, coughed, and reminded Mei Youwei to pay attention.

"Master, your throat is not very good. Why do you keep coughing? Is there something wrong?" Lin Siran asked.

"Old... the old man's throat is itchy." The master said awkwardly.

Mei Youwei also realized that he seemed to be surrounded by Lin Sizan, so he regained consciousness and said, "Fourth Su, tell me, can someone prove that you have been in the inn all day and never went out?"

"If no one proves it, it means that you are still lying, that is, you have killed the old lady and Mother Chun." Lin Siran added.

Where can Su Laosi find someone to prove it? He went out early that day and didn't return to the inn all day until night.

When going out and going back, the waiter and the shopkeeper all saw it, and they would not help themselves lie for no reason.
