It was fine on August 14.
Tomorrow was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the extremely important sacrificial festival in the Dahan Country.
There was unrestrained lively atmosphere of sacrificial festival for the autumn harvest everywhere in Yunjing City. But the Curtilage of the Ministry of Penalty was full of coldness and graveness.
Today, the Ministry of Penalty would try the case about the Baiwei Building.
A large number of people heard the news. They came to the entrance of the Ministry of Penalty early in the morning. The front door of the Ministry of Penalty had been closed for a long time. But it was pulled open suddenly by jailers at 7:00 a.m. Then grave and serious officers and soldiers marched in step from the trial hall to the place where people stood. The trial hall was heavily guarded.
The crowd was in tumult. Chen Gong who was in official uniform walked from the back hall and sat behind the middle desk. He glance
It was silent in the trial hall and the sound of a falling pin could be heard. The atmosphere was weird.Everyone had a different expression, but they all stared at Cui Ziliang and Su Li.Cui Ziliang said loudly. His voice passed through the courtyard and people who looked at the scene outside could hear him. It immediately caused a commotion.“It was Su Li who had done it!”“It’s terrible. Su Huanli is her father. Even if he is selfish, did she have to kill the innocent people in revenge?”“The young girl is so vicious and must be killed!”“She doesn’t deserve the title of the ‘most talented girl in Yunjing City’. Some people preached that she is not only innocent and kind, but also versatile. I almost believe them.”“Su Xiuxiu looks down upon the civilians, but she is not so vicious. After this incident, it seems that the title of ‘the most talented girl in Yunjing’ will be back to Miss Su..
The situation changed too fast and there was no time for Chen Gong to think much. He immediately took advantage of an opportunity and said, “I don’t think it is right to close the case in a hurry. Since both Lord Sang and Lord Wei have this willingness, I will continue to interrogate!”Su Zipei was battered out of her senses. She knelt next to Su Li, but she was like a rag that was forgotten in the corner and no one looked at her at all. It seemed that only Cui Ziliang heard what she just said and that everyone else turned a deaf ear.Why?!Su Zipei’s eyes flashed with much unwillingness. She tightly clenched the tips of her hands hidden in sleeves. Her whole body trembled slightly. She looked extremely bitter and a little scared!She had done so many things, but... she still couldn’t defeat Su Li, could she?The witch who had died once said Su Li was such a survivor. Her words turned out to be true.At th
It was night. Dongfang Sheng and Wu Jin were in the First Prince’s Mansion.Crack!Dongfang Sheng was full of anger and threw the files to Wu Jin’s face violently. Then, the files fell onto the ground.“This is the good tactic you mentioned? Um?!”Dongfang Sheng was going crazy and pointed to Wu Jin. His finger was close to getting to the nostril of the latter. He said, “At first you said that this tactic was flawless. Now everyone in Yunjing City know that the Hehuan Sect should be responsible for the case. How can I explain it to the people of the Hehuan Sect?”Wu Jin felt embarrassed. He slowly bent down and picked up the files. He was suddenly savage, and after he got up, he restored equilibrium. He said in a low voice, “First Prince, there is no need to panic. I have remedies.”“What remedies? Childe Wu, can you tell me?”Before Wu Jin finished his words, a sweet female voice came from ou
After leaving the Supreme Judiciary, Su Li changed her looks. She changed into the young man who met Qu Lu in the Hongyan House. She went to the street where the Linli Building was located.It was August 15 again and lanterns were hung up in front of every household. Although the alley was secluded, the children played in the street. The poor people squatted beside their doors. They watched their children while they were picking vegetables. When Su Li saw the picture, she felt a little warm.After watching it for a while, Su Li saw the proprietress of the Zhouyue Winery carrying a swill bucket. Su Li immediately came to her sense and walked into the Linli Building that had been opened.Su Li and the proprietress saw each other at the same time. After the proprietress poured swill, she saw the high building whose door was opened. She pondered and scolded, “Black sheep... The restaurant is not only remote but also silent. The money for building i
“Master, I am not very clear about the matter you asked. How about asking my boss when he comes back?”Qu Qingning scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly. But he was in a cold sweat on his back. If Su Li had not reminded him, he would have found other excuses to prevaricate. But in that case, it was not conformed to his identity of a waiter. This old woman’s question seemed to be simple, but there were lots of traps actually. It was hard to prevent!“Oh! Oh, I am stupid... Never mind.”The fat proprietress said politely and relaxed her vigilance. She released the shabby scholar’s hands imperceptibly.“Darling, be careful. The wine was almost spilled out...”The shabby scholar complained bitterly and finally had his first taste.When the spicy wine just entered his throat and passed his stomach, he felt warm from the bottom of his belly. The shabby scholar marveled with blear eyes. It seemed that he wa
Su Li arrived at the Su House by nightfall. Li Yuelian and Su Huanli were busy in preparing for the festival, and the Su House finally had a festive atmosphere. But Su Li didn’t see Su Zipei and Zhu Yan. The Old Lady was fascinated by the Buddha and stayed in her room. Except for servants, the Su House was desolate.“Miss, you are back!”Mammy Li quickly handed a towel to Su Li to wipe her face. The maids behind her immediately shouted tidily,“Second Miss!”“Second Miss!”“...”She was not familiar with these servants because she never saw them before. Su Li could not help but ask, “Mammy, they...”Mammy Li knew what she was asking. She quickly took Su Li to the room as she said, “Miss, First Master came back during the day. These servants are brought back by him.”Su Li pondered and didn’t ask any other questions. But she was secretly vigilant inside. The Eldest Brother clearly
Su Qingtan followed Ling Qinglan into the study and he was stunned.Why did the study be the same as before?Qiyu Xuangong was undoubtedly a real evil martial art. Su Qingtan practiced it and his inner demons came out frequently. Ling Qinglan suppressed Su Qingtan’s inner demons with the extremely coldness. The whole study was like a cold place in the north and there was a layer of frost in the surface of the study.During the ten days, Su Qingtan had frostbite all over his body, but he passed through the first phase of the Qiyu Xuan Gong. He sobered up from the unconscious situation and would never be wholly controlled by seven affections and six desires.Even Ling Qinglan was surprised by Su Qingtan’s change. He thought that Su Qingtan would need at least one month to sober himself up on the basis of his will. He didn’t expect that it only took Su Qingtan ten days.“Now, your inner demons in your body are stabilized,
Time was fleeting. Su Li went to the Affiliated School of the National Academy to practice every day as usual. But she waited for a moment in front of the entrance every day when she came back. She wanted to see if the Eldest Brother would be back at night.After going to the Supreme Judiciary that night, she understood Su Qingtan’s difficulties. She knew that the familiar Eldest Brother wouldn’t come back until the negative phase of the Qiyu Xuangong was overcome.However, that didn’t represent that members of the Su Family knew that either.At first, the Su House was in peace under the deterrent of Su Qingtan. But after Zhu Yan recovered, she said something to Su Huanli. Then Su Huanli ended Su Li’s monthly money immediately.“Miss, the Third Miss is on intimate terms with several rich young masters recently. The Master is quite happy and doubles her monthly money.”Mammy Li told what a maid told her to Su Li. She di
