Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 187 Asking
When Su Guangren heard the name of the Regent, his expression changed slightly.
Although he was just a minor official in the past, he had been in the officialdom for many years after all, so he naturally saw many things more clearly than Su Ziyao.
If the woman surnamed Jiang really has a regent behind her, then things will indeed become a bit tricky.
Just thinking about the scene of his son's tragic death, how could he swallow this...
Although this son is not very capable, he is his only offspring and the foundation of their Su family's future.
Thinking of this, Su Guangren bowed to King Huai and continued.
"I know King Huai means well."
"But even if she has the Prince Regent's protection, what does it matter? Since there's no evidence, I'll file a complaint with the Jingzhao Yin and the Dali Temple, and have them continue their investigation! We'll eventually get to the bottom of this!"
"I don't believe that once I find evidence, Jun Jiuchen will still be able to blatantly protect the Jiang family."
King Huai seemed to want to say something when he heard this, but in the end he just sighed and swallowed his words.
Su Guangren naturally saw that he was hesitant to speak.
"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, please speak directly."
During the days since the Su family came to Beijing, King Huai has always treated them with courtesy, and it is obvious that he wants to make friends with them.
Although Su Jinyue told them not to get too close to Prince Huai, compared to Jun Jiuchen's unapproachable attitude, he naturally had more favorable feelings towards Prince Huai's Mansion.
When King Huai saw Su Guangren asking the question, he still did not answer immediately. Instead, he seemed to hesitate for a moment before speaking.
"Brother Su, have you ever thought about this... Jiang is just a merchant's daughter. How could she have the guts to order someone to assassinate the emperor's uncle?"
Su Guangren's heart moved when he heard this.
"What the prince means is..."
King Huai did not make a final decision.
"I cannot determine the truth."
"But Brother Su feels... if this matter is truly related to the Prince Regent's Palace... would the Jingzhao Yin or the Dali Temple dare to investigate? Even if they did, would they dare to speak out?"
"So... for the safety of the Queen Mother and His Majesty, please think twice before acting, Brother Su."
Su Guangren's heart moved when he heard this.
But after thinking for a moment, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
After all, the Regent is now on the side of Su Jinyue and Ye'er. Although he is a little cold, he should not kill the legitimate son of the Su family and openly become an enemy of the Su family.
But at this moment, the servant who had just spoken glanced at King Huai very quickly, as if he suddenly remembered something, and continued.
"Master, that day at the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion... I personally heard the Regent look at you with murderous intent..."
"He also told me something like, 'You're looking for death...'"
"This, the Second Madam and the Third Miss should have heard it too... If Master doesn't believe it, you can ask them..."
When Su Guangren heard the servant's words, before he could say anything, Madam Su beside him was already shocked and angry, and started crying.
"Master, Ziyao is the only male heir of our Su family!"
"If we die in such an unclear way, who will take our Su family seriously in the future in Shangjing?"
"Master, please make the decision for Ziyao!"
Who will take the Su family seriously in the future? Su Guangren's eyes finally moved when he heard this.
It would be fine if Jun Jiuchen just ignored the Su family, but if...
He really dared to touch his son...
At his age, he has been addicted to alcohol and sex and has damaged his health. It is still unknown whether he will be able to have a son in the future.
So, Zi Yao died.
The Su family's incense supply was cut off.
Even if you really have such wealth, what's the use! You will still be criticized by others!
Su Guangren thought about it, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of cruelty flashed across his eyes.
"Someone, please ask the Second Madam and the Third Miss to come over!"
King Huai looked at the expressions of Su Guangren and his wife, and an almost invisible curve appeared at the corner of his mouth without any expression. However, he also knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay any longer at this time, so he stood up and said goodbye consciously.
"Since Brother Su has to attend to family matters, I will take my leave now. I hope Brother Su and Madam Su will accept my condolences. If you need anything, please send someone to Prince Huai's Mansion to pass on the message."
Su Guangren also concealed the cruelty in his eyes at this time, turned around and bowed to King Huai and said.
"Thank you for your visit today, Your Majesty."
King Huai only took a few steps towards Su Guangren, lowered his voice, and spoke meaningfully.
"Brother Su, there's no need to be so polite. After all, I'm your majesty's uncle. In fact, we're family."
"I also hope that the world...will always be named Yun."
"In this way, when I am a hundred years old, I will have the courage to meet my royal brother and all the ancestors of my Yun family."
When Su Guangren heard this, his eyebrows twitched.
What King Huai meant by this...
Could it be that Jun Jiuchen has some rebellious intentions?
……
Not long after Prince Huai left, Shen Yuru and Su Ling'er appeared in the side hall.
Both of them were dressed in plain clothes and without any makeup.
"Master, the funeral outside needs people. You called me and Ling'er here, but what's the matter?" Shen Yuru looked at Su Guangren's face and asked with some doubt.
Su Guangren used to plunder the people's wealth and married a woman whose family was quite wealthy. He was considered wealthy, but he never had the opportunity to be promoted.
In order to get close to the powerful in the capital and marry Shen Yuru, a concubine's daughter, he put in a lot of effort. The betrothal gift alone was as much as 100,000 taels.
But after marrying her, he realized that he had been deceived.
Shen Yuru was simply an unfavored concubine's daughter. After she married into the Shen family, the Shen family almost ignored her. It was not until later that the Shen family sent Su Jinyue to Beijing to replace Shen Jiahe in the palace selection that he finally saw a glimmer of hope.
Later, when Su Jinyue gave birth to a prince, he was overjoyed. After all, during that period, even the prefect visited him in person, and he suddenly felt that there was hope for promotion.
But before he could wait for his promotion at the end of the year, news came from the palace that Su Jinyue had been banished to the cold palace and Yun Ye had been removed from the royal jade records, which dashed his hopes once again.
He even got himself implicated in a lot of things. If he hadn't made arrangements everywhere, he might not have been able to keep his position as county magistrate.
Therefore, since then, he has become increasingly indifferent to Shen Yuru and Su Ling'er.
Who would have thought that Su Jinyue would actually be able to leave the cold palace one day...
Therefore, now, when facing Shen Yuru, he finally felt a little less confident.
After Su Guangren sorted out his thoughts, he looked at Shen Yuru and her daughter in a kind tone.
"Yuru, as you know, Ziyao's death was suspicious. Today I heard some gossip related to the cause of his death, so I wanted to come and ask you."
"When you took Ling'er to the Ningyuan Marquis's mansion for the coming-of-age ceremony, did you hear the Regent threaten Ziyao and say he would take his life?"
