Supreme Court
All the suspicious people in Immortal Battling Tower were brought here for questioning.
Huang Dali did not interrogate them one by one. Instead, he invited Su Ziluo and Old General Wen into the inner hall and served them tea. "General Su, Old General Wen, there's no one else here right now. This matter is of great importance and involves many people. As far as I know, the two families used to be friends. Even if they had a falling out, they shouldn't go so far as to kill someone.
I'm afraid this matter is really a misunderstanding, and the culprit is someone else. "Huang Dali's words were spoken with the intention of defending Su Ziluo, but also with the intention of making peace.
He invited the two of them into the inner hall, intending to mediate. Old General Wen looked at the calm Su Ziluo sitting across from him and said: "Just as Lord Huang said, our two families have been friends for many years. This general watched virtuous nephew Su grow up, so I am well aware of his character. Even though our two families have not been in contact for many years,
However, this general still believes that such a malicious deed could not have been done by him. Lord Huang, you must investigate the matter thoroughly and find the real culprit who intended to harm this general as soon as possible. Bring him to justice. "
"This official will naturally do so."
The corners of Su Ziluo's mouth curled upwards as he listened to their conversation.
Old General Wen took a sip of tea and said, "It's a little cold."
Huang Dali immediately called someone in and ordered, "Bring another pot of hot tea."
The servant was stunned. This was clearly hot tea that had just been served. How did it turn cold in such a short time?
However, he didn't say anything. He hurriedly answered and changed a cup of hot tea before retreating.
From beginning to end, Su Ziluo did not utter a single word.
Everyone said that the one from the Su Family was a man of few words, and it was indeed true. Due to the inconvenience of his legs, he had not attended court for many years. As a result, Huang Dali rarely interacted with him. Occasionally, he would converse with Huang Dali politely. Huang Dali shifted his gaze to Su Ziluo and asked, "Why?
General Su, although Old General Wen and I trust your character, we still need you to explain the details in detail to see if we missed anything. " He thought for a moment, then said unhurriedly, "Actually, I've already told Lord Huang everything that needs to be said. I was the one who brought the wine and I even drank a little. After that, I ordered someone to deliver it to Old General Wen. As for what happened during the delivery process,
I don't know. "
"Is there anyone who can prove that the wine you sent was not poisonous?"
"Milord's question doesn't seem to have any meaning. At the time, there was only me and the servant girl in the warm room. Even if Milord believed what we said, others might not believe it."
"Then it will be difficult on my side."
"Since I've come to the Supreme Court, I naturally have no intention of leaving immediately. Milord, why don't you lock me up in prison? It won't be too late to release me when the truth is revealed." He didn't care at all about being locked up in the Supreme Court's prison.
On the contrary, staying here was much safer than returning to the residence.
Huang Dali's expression was unsightly. Since he had said so, according to procedure, he really should do so.
Therefore, he ordered his men to bring Su Ziluo to the prison and arrange a good cell for him. He was not to be tortured.
Old General Wen didn't say anything and only urged Huang Dali to solve the case as soon as possible.
Old General Wen and Su Ziluo came out of the inner hall one after the other. Su Ziluo suddenly stopped and coldly asked, "Old General Wen, did you not suspect that the wine I sent was poisoned?
Old General Wen was startled, his expression gloomy.
Of course he suspected it. No, he had always believed it!
A person who secretly sent assassins to kill his son could also come to kill him.
But because of his status and the current situation, he could only choose to trust Su Ziluo.
Su Ziluo understood everything from his expression. He faintly smiled and let two elite soldiers push him away.
Old General Wen watched his back and couldn't help but secretly clench his fists in his sleeves.
During the war between Qujiang and Great Lin, he chose between friendship and survival.
Old General Su was beheaded by Ji Yunshu's older brother, Ji Li!
He felt guilty for that matter for many years.
But he didn't expect that after so many years, Su Ziluo still hadn't forgiven the Wen family. Instead, he wanted to kill them again and again.
This knot would never be untied in this lifetime!
The Supreme Court's elite soldiers pushed Su Ziluo towards the prison. Along the way, although his expression was calm, his heart was full of doubts.
He couldn't understand who wanted to kill Old General Wen.
In Yan Capital, who dared to do so?
To be precise, who wanted to borrow his hands to kill? To destroy the Wen and Su families in one go?
Just as he was thinking, a cry came from the side.
He looked over and saw Liu Yunzhu sitting in the corridor, crying. Several rough men from the Supreme Court tried to persuade her, but they couldn't stop her.
He had a headache.
Su Ziluo said to the elite soldiers behind him, "Can you push me over? It will only take a bit of time. "
The two elite soldiers looked at each other, then pushed him over.
When the elite soldiers saw him, they immediately straightened their backs. "General Su."
"What happened?"
"This little girl is the deceased's sister, so she has been crying. We have already sent someone to inform his relatives. They should be here soon."
He grunted and pushed the wheelchair in front of Liu Yunzhu.
Liu Yunzhu looked at him in fear and shrank back.
"Are you afraid of me?"
She sobbed and said, "They said you killed my sister."
Su Ziluo didn't refute and gently said, "Your name is Liu Yunzhu, and your sister is Liu Yunyan. They live in Minnan, and there is someone in the same group called Uncle Qiao."
'Ah!'
Liu Yunzhu looked at him with red eyes. "How did you know?"
"Last time, your sister was poisoned in the bamboo house outside the city. It was someone from my mansion who sent her into the city, so I naturally know."
"You know Sister Yunshu?"
"Yes, she is an old friend of mine."
"Then you really didn't kill my sister?"
"No."
Liu Yunzhu didn't know why, but she trusted him very much and let down her guard. She wiped away her tears and asked, "Then, can you save my sister again? I don't want her to die. I don't want my sister to die and be left alone. "
She started to cry again, feeling sour.
Su Ziluo reached out and rubbed her head, but he didn't say anything and left.
On the other side, at the Su Mansion.
News of the incident at the Immortal's Contest House reached the mansion. Ji Yunshu was shocked and worried.
Qi 'er relayed Su Ziluo's words. "Young Master told Miss not to worry and to stay in the mansion."
Ji Yunshu paced a few steps in the room and asked, "Where's the corpse?"
"It has been taken to the Supreme Court."
"What did the coroner say?"
"He said that the wine was poisoned, and the wine in the cup was also poisoned," said Qi 'er.
"Did they investigate the details?"
"The people from the Supreme Court are still investigating. At present, it is very unfavorable for Young Master."
Ji Yunshu pondered and pondered. Qi 'er told Ah Yi and Ah Jiao to take good care of the corpse before leaving.
