The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince Chapter 234

Chapter 234 The Prime Minister's Mansion is infamous

In order to hear more, Du Wan did not go to the private room, but sat in the lobby, listening to Mr. Shu's stories and the actors singing songs.

 What the storyteller is talking about now is about the evil slaves in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

—“In ten years, hundreds of lives were harmed,…”

 —“The master of the Prime Minister's Mansion probably doesn't know either.”

—“If it weren't for the support of the Prime Minister's Office, would those evil slaves dare to kill people? Especially the big housekeeper, there were eighteen murders in his hands alone.”

—“I heard about this. There was a family of more than ten people who were killed in one night. All the family property was misappropriated by the big steward. He was so unconscionable that he didn't even spare the newborn child.”

Du Wan was peeling peanuts and eating them, listening to gossip while eating.

Zhuang Cong and several guards sat at the table behind her. They also ordered a few snacks and a pot of tea.

Du Wan suddenly said: "Have you heard about what happened to Su Zhuangyuan last time?"

 —“I've heard about this.”

—“The day before yesterday, there were students surrounding the Imperial City Si Yamen, saying they wanted to ask for his orders.”

—“The emperor said he would stay in prison to prove his innocence.”

 —“Do you believe he is innocent?”

Du Wan then interjected, "Before the evil slave incident happened, I believed it. Now, hehe. No, it's nothing if you can raise one or two evil slaves who bully others. But you can raise a lot of people. , can it still be good?”

 There was a sudden silence all around.

Someone slapped his thigh and said, "Mom! This is really true!"

"Su Zhuangyuan was arrested. What was the crime?" someone asked.

Someone else said loudly: "I know this matter, it is related to human traffickers. I heard that there is a dog farm in the suburbs, and there are many children locked up in it. After the people from the Imperial City Division encircled and suppressed them, they arrested all the people and returned them." Caught Su Zhuangyuan on the spot."

 “You scum!”

"That's not right. I heard that it was not caught on the spot, but nearby."

“…He's so good, what is he doing around there?”

Zhuang Cong looked speechlessly as his master fanned the flames beside him.

 The princess did such a shameful thing, but she did it happily.

Du Wan sat there for another half an hour, then satisfiedly grabbed a handful of fried peanuts and walked out of the teahouse while eating.

I almost bumped into someone in front of the teahouse door. He was a handsome and elegant young man. He was wearing a snow-white robe and a jade belt wrapped around his lean waist.

 “Princess?” The young master blurted out.

Du Wan was surprised, "Do you know me?"

"I have met the princess. The grassroots people have been lucky enough to meet the princess once."

“Huh?” Du Wan tried hard to remember, but still couldn't remember who he was. “Maybe it's been too long and I can't remember who you are.”

The young man lowered his eyes and smiled softly, "Qiao Qingzhu, a grassroots man."

"oh-"

Du Wan suddenly realized, "It turns out to be you. You come here -"

 She pointed to the Four Seasons Building behind her.

Qiao Qingzhu said warmly: "The manager of the Four Seasons Building has invited our troupe to perform in the building in three days. The grassroots came here because they have something to discuss with the manager."

“Oh, I will definitely support you when the time comes.” Du Wan said politely.

The two exchanged a few polite words, and Qiao Qingzhu stood aside. Du Wan left happily and looked back at him. Unexpectedly, he looked pretty good after taking off his thick makeup. If you were living in modern times, this would be her cup of tea.

After walking for a short distance, she stood still and looked back.

Qiao Qingzhu's figure has long disappeared at the door of the teahouse, and he must have gone inside.

Zhuang Cong's eyelids twitched. The princess wouldn't be like the ladies in the capital, and she would also learn how to be an actor, right?

 This is not a good habit…

Du Wan turned around suddenly and looked at Zhuang Cong, "What are you thinking about?"

“Thinking about nothing?” Zhuang Cong replied immediately.

Du Wan raised her eyebrows and said, "You can tell lies out of the blue, that's awesome, much better than I used to be."

This doesn't sound like a compliment at all!

Zhuang Cong has a guilty conscience and would rather lie than tell the truth.

Du Wan didn't really want to find out what he was thinking. She was thinking about Qiao Qingzhu's background. Pei Hao seemed to have mentioned it to her, which was quite worthy of sympathy from others.

At this time, Pei Hao was in the prison of the Imperial City Division.

Su Che put on his prison uniform and sat cross-legged in front of an old table.

 There is a pot of wine and several dishes on the table. There was also a wine glass in front of Su Che, which was filled with wine.

Su Che said: "A meal without a head?"

"You're thinking too much." Pei Hao didn't have any friendship with Su Che, but he didn't have any bad feelings towards Su Che. They were both children from good backgrounds, and Su Che was considered clean among his peers. "You are from the Su family again. It's a big trouble, and hundreds of lives are at stake.”

Su Che suddenly looked up at him, "What do you mean by this?"

Pei Hao told the story about the evil slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion, "Your grandfather, Prime Minister Su, was banned from his home by the emperor and closed his door to think about his mistakes. The Su family should be lucky that the evidence did not implicate the master of the Su family, but the reputation is extremely bad. , the century-old reputation is completely gone.”

 “Why did you come today?”

 “Let Su Yu admit to murdering the princess and let the truth come out.”

"Impossible." Su Che knew that their family would never admit this. "Even if they admit to abducting children and using slaves to commit murder, they will not admit to murdering the princess. Prince Pei, you should know the severity of this better than anyone else."

 Admit to child trafficking and slavery, and the Prime Minister's Office will lose.

And if he admits to murdering the princess, the whole family will die!

Pei Hao naturally knew the key to this, but the evidence of the murder of the princess was completely wiped out by the Su family. "Are you so sure that Zhuangzi's matter will not be exposed?"

 “What does Zhuangzi's matter have to do with the Su family?”

"Do you think Su Yi died without any evidence?" Pei Hao looked at Su Che with calm eyes, "People who have entered the Imperial City Division can be convicted without evidence."

 “Are you trying to ignore the law?”

“It's much kinder than your Su family feeding corpses to dogs.”

Su Che stood up suddenly and said excitedly: "Impossible!"

"Don't you know? The corpses found by the imperial guards all had signs of being chewed. If this matter were made public, would your Su family still have a way to survive?" Pei Hao's eyes were full of ridicule.

This behavior of the Su family has offended the public and is shameful to everyone in the world.

Su Che fell down in shock, with a blank look on his face.

The previous person in charge of the stronghold had been killed by Du Liu when he intercepted Du Liu and others last time. As the master, Su Che didn't need to go there in person if there weren't too many casualties in the stronghold. I never knew the person in charge could do such a bad thing before.

Pei Hao examined Su Che and did not miss the change in his expression.

 A small test showed that Su Che didn't know anything about it.

 The content of today's conversation cannot be used as evidence unless Su Che writes down the testimony and signs it. It can also be seen from this that it is almost impossible for the Su family to plead guilty on their own.
