The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman

The three of them stared at Su He with wide eyes. Lord Hong had a calm expression and sat steadily in the chair.

Su He was busy guessing.

"Are you afraid that he will surpass you in the imperial examination, or is it because he discovered some secret of yours? For example, you secretly took refuge with the Dali people?"

"Do you know how to judge a case? Don't talk nonsense. I just went to have a meal. Jiang Fan was fine before I left, he was just drunk."

Jin Sheng yelled angrily.

"Who saw it?"

"I just had dinner with him, how can I have any evidence?"

Jin Sheng looked very angry, and Lu Wen'an quickly explained.

"And me, I am even more innocent. Jiang Fan was already dead when I went there."

"Me too. I just had a fight with him and then I left. When I came back he was dead."

Boss Wang followed up with an explanation.

Su He smiled, "Boss Wang, did anyone else see you and Jiang Fan quarreling besides Jin Sheng?"

Boss Wang was speechless for a moment.

"You arranged it very well. When Boss Wang left, Jiang Fan was still drinking with Jin Sheng. When Jin Sheng left, Jiang Fan was also alive. When Lv Wen'an came, Jiang Fan was already dead. In other words, the time of his death is very clear. It was after Jin Sheng left and before Lv Wen'an came."

"That's what the coroner concluded after the autopsy that day. That's why you're so confident, right?"

Su He stared at the faces of the three people, "Jiang Fan died long before Boss Wang went to visit relatives. You are all acting. Your alibis were all improvised, so no one can testify except you."

Jin Sheng refuted on the spot, "We have a witness. Someone passed by and saw Jiang Fan and Boss Wang arguing."

"Jiang Fan and Lv Wen'an have similar figures. It's entirely possible that he is Lv Wen'an pretending to be Jiang Fan."

"These are all your guesses. You are too arbitrary in your judgment."

Su He sneered, "You don't have any evidence to prove your innocence. If the three of you are accomplices, you can't prove each other."

Jin Sheng pursed his lips and refused to admit it.

"What I said is true. I am innocent. I will take the imperial examination soon. Don't delay my future if you don't have evidence. After all, I am a juren. I can't be what you say."

Lu Wen'an was also very dissatisfied. "You are a woman, and you are talking nonsense here, and no one cares. Sir, if you don't have evidence, please let us leave immediately."

Boss Wang looked even more innocent and spoke earnestly.

"Sir, I am really innocent. Can you please let me go first? My wife and children are still at home. I am worried."

Su He looked at Lord Hong who had remained silent.

"Sir, they are definitely jealous of Jiang Fan, so they want to get rid of Jiang Fan to eliminate a competitor. I don't recommend such people to participate in the imperial examination."

Lord Hong nodded slowly, "Imprison them separately until the imperial examination is over. I will go and explain to His Majesty in person."

So the bailiffs waiting on the side escorted the three people out in batches.

Lord Hong and Su He also walked out and stood in the open space. Lord Hong tilted his head and asked, "Why do you think it was done by these three people?"

"Sir, I want to ask if the three of them know the conclusion of the coroner's autopsy?"

There was a faint smile in Lord Hong's eyes, "I don't know."

"So they are the murderers. Who else but the murderer could time it so well?"

"You are wrong. You are too arbitrary. Judgment requires evidence."

Lord Hong shook his head and Suho smiled.

"Your Excellency must have the evidence, so I won't guess. But there is one thing you definitely don't know."

Lord Hong looked at Su He curiously, "What?"

"That Boss Wang used to be a robber at the gate of Huangye Town, and he collected tolls from passers-by."

Lord Hong rarely lost his composure. He turned around and stared at Su He.

"How did you know?"

How did Su He know that? The robber was searched by her brother, and she even took a photo as a souvenir. It was him.

The fat guy with smelly feet has become thinner now, of course, as for the feet, there is no need to verify it.

A few years ago, she was reminiscing about the past on her space and saw it on her phone, which left a deep impression on her.

"That year, my family and I fled to the south to escape famine and passed by Huangye Town..."

Su He gave a brief account of what happened. "Those bandits who were tied up were alive when we left. It is said that they disappeared along with the food. Lord Chen was also involved at the time, but it's a pity that he is not here, otherwise we could have asked him."

Lord Hong lowered his head and thought for a moment, then turned around and gave instructions to Su He.

"Don't mention this to anyone else. Come to the station tomorrow to get your clothes."

"Sir, can I get a horse? I live on Northwest Street, which is too far from the Embroidery Office."

Lord Hong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, let Shi Yong take you there tomorrow. That's all for today, you can take my carriage back first."

"Thank you for your kindness, my lord. My husband is waiting for me. We will go back in our own carriage."

Su He said goodbye to Lord Hong and trotted back.

It was getting late, so she had to go back quickly to burn her clothes and wash them from head to toe.

She really hated what she did, and suddenly she felt that writing storybooks was a good idea.

An hour after returning home, Su He finally came back to life after lying on the bed.

"Miao Miao, it's almost done. I'll go to the stove to dry it. I'll have dinner while I'm at it. You guys can take a rest."

Miaomiao and Tiantian were helping Su He dry his hair. It was already half dry, and Su He would soon be done with the dryer.

Liu Bai was waiting for her in the kitchen. He took the food out of the pot only when he saw her coming.

"Eat quickly and rest early after eating. You have to get up early tomorrow."

"it is good."

Su He took a small stool and sat next to the stove, eating with a bowl in hand.

After wolfing down the meal, Su He wiped his mouth and chatted with Liu Bai.

"It's terrible. That dungeon stinks. I don't think this job is suitable for me. When Master Chen comes back, I will ask if there is any work to confiscate property. This job suits me."

Liu Bai nodded in agreement, "You try your best. I think everyone is fighting for it, so don't hold out too much hope."

Su He curled her lips. She was so happy that she forgot to ask about Chen Shi's treatment and housing issues. She could live in the Xiuyi Residence alone, but she had a big family too.

"Xiao Bai, I can lead the horses tomorrow. I will ask about housing issues tomorrow. I hope to live next to the Embroidery Office. This way I only need to get up 25 minutes earlier. When I become an experienced person, I can spend 15 minutes to check the location."

Su He was having a sweet dream, but Liu Bai broke it the next second.

"That street is where the six ministries are located. There is no place to rent to you."

"The one next door."

"Where the princes live."

Su He glared at Liu Bai and asked in a bad tone.

"Just tell me where we can live recently?"

"This is it."

Su He was so angry that he became autistic. This kid was full of bad intentions.

Liu Bai raised his lips and smiled, "I'm just kidding, we can live on Changping Street in front, which is a quarter of an hour closer."

"Tomorrow I will take you to the Embroidery Office, and then send Mu Tou and the other two to the Academy. Then we will go to the pawnshop to look for houses. If I find a suitable one, I will buy it. You give me some silver."

Su He's expression looked better then, and he took out eight thousand taels of silver from the house.

"enough?"

"No, just give me four thousand taels first. If I like it, I'll pay a deposit first, and we'll go take a look when you finish your errand."

Su He took back four thousand taels of silver and handed the rest to Liu Bai.

"You wash the dishes."

Su He said this angrily and went back to the house, while Liu Bai went back to the kitchen with a smile.
