Mam. Su-Cui was back to Dasu Town. She asked the Su Family to find the whereabouts of the witch right away, but the news she got startled her.
“What? The witch died?”
Li Yin standing in front of Mam. Su-Cui lowered himself and nodded, “Yes, it is said that she died suddenly. Many people said that God punished the witch because she had said too much that she shouldn’t say.”
“God punished her...”
Mam. Su-Cui whispered and then shouted madly, “It is great that she was punished by God! She said that I would get a grandson, but where is my grandson now? My poor grandson, oh…”
Mam. Su-Cui sobbed as she said. Li Yin didn’t know what to do at this moment, but he guessed that the third baby of the First Madam was still a girl.
...
Mammy Li was the last one to know that the fifth baby of the Su Family was still a girl from the midwife. She was really happy about that. She thought, “The First Madam reall
“...It’s not you?”Fang Yuan was a little surprised. It’s not Fang Yuan’s fault to suspect Su Li. It’s just because Su Li was too calm when she heard that the official sliver was found in the Baiwei Building just now. That’s the reason why Fang Yuang would suspect her.“If you have time, you can think about how to save the situation.”Seeing that Su Huanli was dragged away by officers and soldiers, Su Li said coldly, “I don’t have time to rebuild the Linli Building in other provincial capital.”Seeing that Su Li left, Fang Yuan frowned a moment, but then he was relieved.After thinking carefully, Fang Yuan was sure that Su Li didn’t arrange people to steal the official silver. Because if she did so, the Linli Building would also be in trouble and the prosperous situation of the Linli Building would be destroyed. Fang Yuan only saw that Su Li hated the Su Family but forgot that Su Li had her own principles.
Eighteen years ago, a talented girl Su Yun was born into a poor family in the Qinghe Town. Although Su Yun’s family members were poor peasants for successive three generations, her father and mother tried their best to let her go to school. They thought the best result was that she could read as many words as possible and got married with a good husband. To their surprise, Su Yun showed a great talent in literature and was enrolled by Wen Ruomin, a new dean of the girls’ school.The teacher and student relation was naturally not the normal one in the school. It was more of an intimate connection between the master and apprentice in the martial arts circle. Wen Ruomin regarded Su Yun as her biological daughter and taught her carefully. Su Yun didn’t let Wen Ruomin down. Su Yun successfully passed the initial test and went to the Traditional Chinese Culture Academy in Yunjing at the age of sixteen. One year later, she would become a female official of the Dahan Country.
“Lord, the people of the Lin Li Building are here.”A subordinate reported when Yan Shixun and his daughter were looking at each other in consternation.Yan Shixun immediately came to himself and then ordered with a solemn look, “Hongxiu! Stay here. I will trust you with an important task. The Satrap’s Mansion will be very weak after we leave. Use the bow in your hand to protect the Satrap’s Mansion and your mother. Can you do that?”Her father assigned an important task to her for the first time. Seeing his solemn look, Yan Hongxiu immediately felt an overwhelming sense of responsibility. She nodded with heartfelt delight and said, “Father, rest assured. Even a mosquito cannot fly into the Satrap’s Mansion!”“Good! This’s my girl!”Yan Shixun praised her. Then he immediately ordered someone to take Hongxiu to make arrangements.Seeing his father successfully coax his sister with just a few words, Yan Ziye
Hearing the sound, Su Li turned back and glanced at Luo Yichen. She gently wiped the blood on the two daggers with the upper clothes of the old man in a grey robe. Then, she regained them.Luo Yichen put down Wu Yun and went to the side of Su Li to look at the old man. But because of the limitations of his knowledge, he did not see any difference.“When you came over, did you see other people?”After handling the corpse of the old man, Su Li turned back her head and asked.When Luo Yichen saw that Su Li was skillful in handling the corpse and said with a calm tone, he was a little stunned. He shook his head and said “Nobody.”It could be seen that Su Li understood something and was lost in thought.She thought that Wu Yun was the initiator of stealing official silver in the Qinghe Town. Now when she saw the old man in a grey robe, she realized that it was not as simple as she had thought. It was very likel
When Yan Shixun heard what Ms. Li said, his body was tight for a moment but then relaxed. He had a forced smile and said, “You are right. By this time, it is not a suitable time to investigate my dereliction of duty. I am going to submit a statement about the situation to the imperial court today, waiting for the disposition of the imperial court!”“Lord Yan, you...”Su Li changed her expression. When she was going to say something, the voice came from the gauze curtain again. “Lord Yan, don’t be worried. The power of the Lianshi Cult is beyond your imagination. As long as Su Li testifies, your Yan Family will not be affected. On the contrary, the ends of the families that have worked with the Lianshi Cult are hard to say...”“Thank you for your blessings.”Yan Shixun heard the words of the person behind the gauze curtain, but he was not optimistic. He just got up with a fist and palm salute. Then, he and Su Li hurried off.
“Eldest Brother, it’s really not what you think. I live very well now. This... is hurt by a thief.”After Su Li explained it, Su Qingtan stood on the side blankly and did not expect that besides himself, the Second Sister and the entire Su Family had changed in more than one year.Ling Qinglan had no time to talk to Su Qingtan and Yan Shixun, who were in a daze. He gently untied the gauze around the left arm of Su Li. A long scabby wound was showed.Su Qingtan was stunned inside. The wound was long and deep. She must feel painful.Su Li turned back and slightly bit her lips. Her eyes showed that she was thinking something. She was thinking whether there was any omission or not. At that time, although she cut herself by claw blades, she noticed the orientation of the hook. Even a coroner could not see any difference.But the Ling Qinglan... should not be overlooked!“Ling Qinglan is such a young inborn seni
The expression of the middle-aged guard who was on the side of Ling Qinglan was changed. He was about to take out the medicine from his arms, but his clothes were seized by Ling Qinglan from back. He knew the meaning of his master. Although he was extremely worried, he could only stop to take it.That was impolitic...Ling Qinglan stopped coughing and regained his calm. His heart was cold. From the beginning of the talk, he understood that “Ms. Li” definitely was not a stupid opponent like those people in the past. She could know something from his cough.“Although I don’t want to trouble Ling Mo, this time I should ask Shalou Cult to sound out…”When this idea occurred to him, suddenly, Su Li stood up and said with a smile, “The joke has gone too far. If you don’t mind, please accept my gift of apology.”Ling Qinglan felt puzzled. Even if he was smart, he didn’t understand the reason why Su Li’s attitude was so differ
Su Qingtan felt nervous and bowed his head. He said, “I just thought...”“Do you want to ask that why I didn’t ask you to handle the case after the Su Family was excluded? Did your performance disappoint me?”Ling Qinglan smiled and looked at Su Qingtan who was taunted and couldn’t say anything. He got up and threw a roll of file at the table into Su Qingtan’s arms. “Look at this.”Su Qingtan opened the file and glanced at it. He immediately became serious and finally knew the reason why Ling Qinglan did not find him.Because the Su Family did not get clear from the case.“After the Su Family came to the Qinghe Town, they secretly took orders from Wu Yun. Detecting the official silver in the Baiwei Building was directed by Wu Yun. The person who did it was the First Madam of Su Huanli, your first mother, Zhu Yan. Su Qingtan, the Su Family has so many relationships with Wu Yun. How can I let you participate in the case?
