Chapter 90: Pressure from all sides
Compared with Yan Fusong's confidence, Su Xuanming's situation seemed to be more troubled.
After Su Xuanming took a large number of people to the government to report the crime, someone suddenly came to the old woman's house and returned home because of urgent matters.
The official who accepted the case said that the case has been accepted, but specifically, the process cannot be completed until both parties are present at the same time.
As a suspect, the doctor needs to be temporarily detained in the government office.
"Brother, do you think this old woman has a guilty conscience, so she went home?"
The sworn brothers who came over after receiving the news were chattering non-stop.
“The matter has not been finalized yet, so we’d better not make any assumptions.” Surprisingly, Su Xuanming did not take a clear stance from the beginning.
Li Mingde raised his eyebrows: "Brother, don't you think that the doctor was wronged, so you stood up for him?"
Su Xuanming put his hands into his sleeves, his eyebrows stern. , making people unable to understand his true thoughts.
"I never think anyone is unjustly accused or deserves it. I just don't like the old woman making trouble in front of the hospital. Right and wrong, the merits and demerits, should be dealt with by the Yamen."
Gu Nanxi glanced at Su Xuanming, this guy has changed a lot.
Su Yunting curled his lips in disdain at these words. The eldest brother was indeed less knowledgeable.
If he saw the killings and the dirty tricks in the arena, he would definitely understand that this yamen is like the sun. Under the sun, there is a bright and open side, and there is also a dark side.
If the yamen were so easy to use, how could there be so many injustices in the world?
Su Yunyan opened the curtain boredly. She never cared about such things.
She is not a yamen, can the yamen help her make money?
In this world, real money and silver are the most powerful. As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. As long as you have money, not to mention the yamen, even the door of the palace can be knocked open. of.
The group of people stepped on the sunset and returned to Yongchang Houfu.
Su Yunyan had already sent people to the mansion to prepare a banquet, and was just waiting for everyone to return before the banquet could begin.
At the spring banquet, sing a cup of green wine.
"The moon melts in the pear blossom courtyard, and the catkins pond has a gentle breeze." Jiang Guanghai squinted his eyes slightly and sang loudly.
"The sparse shadows are slanting across the clear water, and the faint fragrance is floating in the moonlight at dusk."
Li Mingde thought for a long time, and still felt that this word was most suitable for the current scenery.
Chen Yixuan had a sad face. In these days, the brothers' studies have made great progress, but he is still lingering in the same place, and his grades are slightly better than those of his eldest brother.
No, at the critical moment, there was nothing he could do.
"Come here, bring me a pen and paper, and I will draw this picture of a spring feast."
Chen Yixuan decided to draw on his own strengths and draw a picture.
"Master, someone is here to visit." Lu Mei gently leaned over and touched Gu Nanxi's ear.
“She is the young lady of the Duke of Jiguo.”
Gu Nanxi put down her wine glass, straightened her sleeves and skirt, and stood up to greet the guests.
"Auntie, I'll go with you." Su Xuanming heard the movement here and knew that this matter was for him.
Gu Nanxi looked at him in surprise.
Su Xuanming kept his sleeves intact and said in a calm tone: "Auntie, you are not in good health. I shouldn't bother you more. Let my son handle these things."
Gu Nan Xi sat down, her big boy had finally grown up, and she could play it safe again.
"Okay."
Su Xuanming was slightly startled. He thought his mother would be worried about him.
Su Xuanming rolled his eyes, raised his lips and said softly: "Don't worry, Mom, I won't let you down."
In the transparently lit living room, a figure appeared The slim and luxurious lady in complicated clothes is facing the door.
Her high and raised bun was covered with hairpins, which glowed brightly under the light of the lights.
"We have known each other for a long time, and we finally meet, Gu Nanxi." The woman's tone was cold, and it sounded like someone who came here was unkind.
The woman turned around and saw that it was not Gu Nanxi who came in, but a tall, thin young man.
“Are you Su Xuanming?”
“It’s me. May I ask why the Duke’s wife is here?”
The young lady of Duke Ji frowned and said displeased: "Why is it you? Where is Gu Nanxi?"
Su Xuanming saw the disdain of the other party, and said without being humble or arrogant: "Just leave the trivial matters to me, why bother? "My mother-in-law?"
Mrs. Ji Guogong sneered: "It's just a piece of barbecued pork. Do you want to treat it as a main dish?"
Su Xuanming's expression also cooled down, and he no longer kept his hot face and cold butt: "The taste of barbecued pork also depends on the cook. For someone like my mother-in-law who is a skilled cook, even an ordinary piece of barbecued pork would be the best in the world. Delicious. I don’t know how the barbecued pork in Jiguo Gongfu tastes.”
“You are barbecued pork, but my son is not.”
Madam Ji Guo Gong was angry and turned around to leave.
Before walking out of the door, he coldly dropped a sentence.
“Your Yongchang Marquis Mansion is insignificant and inferior to our Duke Ji’s Mansion. Have you thought about it, are you going to let such a small official bring shame on our Duke Ji’s Mansion?”< br>
"Besides, does this doctor really have no problem at all?"
Su Xuanming bowed and thanked: "Thank you, madam, for your kind reminder. Just leave all this to the government to judge."< br>
The figure of Mr. Ji Guo's young wife disappeared into the vast night.
At this time, someone else came to Yongchang Hou Mansion to look for his ninth brother.
The few people kept mumbling at the gate for a long time before they dispersed.
“Brother, things are not going well.”
Ninth Brother’s expression was very solemn.
"Just now, friends who met in the government office came to report that the government office secretly asked the doctor."
Jiang Guanghai: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows. White cannot be called black, and black cannot be called black. Bai, I’m not afraid of what they’ll ask.”
“This is the pulse record and prescription given by the doctor. They copied it for me.”
Ninth Brother took it out of his wide sleeve. A few pieces of paper.
"I'll go find the imperial doctor and take a look." The second child took the paper and took advantage of the darkness to knock on the door of the family.
A group of people were worried about this and refused to go home.
Gu Nanxi left them to live in the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, and then sent people to report the news to each house one by one.
"Brother, when I look at this government office, it means that it is biased toward Duke Ji's government office." The ninth brother was worried.
He has a very good relationship with the officials and is very familiar with their ways.
What they can always do on the second day will never be done on the first day.
Being so diligent this time must have been explained by someone above.
Su Xuanming frowned deeply, his eyes dark.
Chen Yixuan asked hesitantly: "Brother, if Ying Tianfu cannot handle things impartially, what are you going to do?"
Hearing Chen Yixuan's question, Jiang Guanghai, Li Mingde and others Everyone turned their attention to Su Xuanming.
Su Xuanming: "The king is the guideline for his ministers. If the king is not upright, the ministers can surrender to other countries. The country is the guideline for the people. If the country is not upright, the people can attack it."
