Chapter 126 Qiongyu Villa
Chapter 126 Qiongyu Villa
On this day, Jiangzhou caused an uproar because the prefect finally found the missing child in Qiongyu Villa.
It just so happened that the warlocks were conducting horrific experiments at that time. The scene was so shocking that many officials couldn't control themselves and vomited on the spot.
The prefect was furious and immediately sent people to catch those guilty people and put them in prison.
What's sad is that except for the child captured in the past two days, all the other children have lost their lives, and their bodies have even been thrown into the woods near the villa.
When the parents of those children heard about this, they ran to claim the bodies. The moment they saw the incomplete bodies of the children, these poor parents burst into tears and some even fainted.
They hated those evil people and screamed at the top of their lungs that they wanted to cut those sorcerers to pieces with a thousand knives.
The people in Jiangzhou were also very excited. Thousands of people spontaneously came to the magistrate's office and begged the magistrate to investigate the case strictly and make the evildoers pay the price.
Everyone feels that although there is no need to worry about children being harmed, the methods of these warlocks are really outrageous and must not be treated lightly!
The magistrate Fang interrogated for a long time, and finally asked about the shocking secret - behind those warlocks was Grand Master Li who was far away in Kyoto and was stirring up trouble!
In the dead of night, the prefect finally returned home.
As soon as Magistrate Fang came back, he entered the study, and his suppressed emotions burst out. He was so angry that he pushed everything on the desk down, furious.
"Li Xun, this lunatic! How could he waste human life in such a wasteful way! He is totally unconscionable!"
"I want to report it to the emperor! This kind of evil behavior must not be tolerated!"
When Mrs. Fang brought Su Xiang over, the door to the study room was open, and there was a mess inside. The book boy stayed in the corner with his head lowered and did not dare to come forward, while Magistrate Fang ignored the chaos around him and was writing something at his desk, completely unaware that anyone was coming.
There was a large pile of crumpled paper near the desk, some of which rolled to the door.
Su Xiang directly picked up a paper ball and looked at it, and suddenly his eyes froze.
It is full of accusations against Taishi Li for his heinous behavior. Heartache fills every sentence and every word, and every word is filled with tears.
The most important thing is that there are traces of moisture all over the paper.
Standing next to Su Xiang, Mrs. Fang could clearly see the contents of the paper. She glanced at Magistrate Fang, who was still writing furiously, and sighed inaudibly.
Then, Mrs. Fang shook her head at Su Xiang and pulled Su Xiang out of the study.
The two of them left the study quietly as if they had never been there.
When Su wanted to go back to his room, Lin Xue was waiting by the window without noticing.
Qingyun sighed, and Gao Lan closed the door and left.
Su Xiang walked over and sat at the table. Lin Xue An took the opportunity to sit next to her and poured her a cup of tea.
Su wanted to nod and take it, but didn't drink it. He just looked at the teacup in a daze.
Lin Xue secretly noticed that Su Xiang was not in a high mood, and her eyes moved, "What's wrong?"
Su Xiang let out a long sigh and said quietly: "My aunt and I just went to see my uncle. He was writing a letter of appeal and planned to send it to the emperor. Did you know? Most of the paper balls on the ground had tears stains on them. Uncle... very Heartache.”
It was precisely because of his heartache that Magistrate Fang couldn't help but shed tears when stating the facts of the case. The tears fell on the letter and the handwriting was blurred.
Lin Xue An held Su Xiang's hand and said, "The prefect serves the country and the people, he is a good official."
"Yes." Su Xiang nodded, "I admire uncle very much."
"There are not many good officials like this in Cang Country."
Su Xiang said with emotion: "Power can blind people's conscience, just like Master Li, he doesn't take human life seriously at all. Such people really deserve to die."
"Do you want me to kill him?"
Lin Xueman's sudden question stunned Su Xiangwen.
"Who?"
Lin Xue'an's eyes were as dark as thick ink, filled with clouds that Su Xiang couldn't see.
"Li Xun. I can find an opportunity to kill him."
Su Xiang shook his head hastily, "No, no need. Li Xun is Yunhua's prey. I said I would help her get revenge."
Yunhua wanted Li Xun to be ruined, dragging his weak body and watching him die bit by bit. So Su Xiang has been planning in this direction.
It's easy to take someone's life, but it's not that easy to bring down Taishi Li, who is equivalent to half of Cang Kingdom's power, and ruin his reputation.
This Jiangzhou incident is just the beginning.
Su Xiang was afraid that Lin Xue would actually kill Taishi Li, so he repeated, "Killing Li Xun is easy, but Yunhua wants him to die painfully bit by bit, and I can't ruin her revenge. Don't mess around either. move."
Lin Xue secretly lowered her eyes and played with Su Xiang's fingers. After hearing this, she nodded indifferently.
"I understand. Since you have a plan, just let him live a little longer. There's no rush."
Lin Xue'an spoke so calmly, as if an important court official like Taishi Li was nothing in his eyes, and whether to kill or not was all a matter of thought.
In this way, he looks a bit like the villain Lin Xueyan in the novel.
Su Xiang couldn't help but look at him twice.
Lin Xue An noticed her gaze, raised her eyes and raised her eyebrows, "What do you want me to do?"
"It's nothing." Su Xianghui held Lin Xueman's hand and smiled slightly, "I heard that Jiangzhou has always had the custom of ice fishing. After the storm has passed in two days, I want to go and have a look around Jinhai. Then you can Disguise yourself and come with me."
Lin Xuedan's eyes lit up, "Of course."
……
The appeal letter arrived in Kyoto in three days. When the emperor saw it, he was furious and asked Fang Muxi to read it word for word in the court hall. The court was in an uproar.
Many officials stared at Master Li in disbelief and started talking.
Taishi Li also had a stern look on his face and frowned.
Of course Taishi Li looked ugly.
Since the sorcerers were arrested, the prefect had specially blocked all the city gates leading out of Jiangzhou to prevent anyone from leaking information.
And secretly, Lin Xueyin also helped Magistrate Fang. He sent people in advance to remove Taishi Li's other forces in Jiangzhou and silenced them all. No one was spared.
Therefore, Taishi Li was caught off guard when someone revealed his secret without knowing anything about it.
The emperor was furious and smashed another document written by Magistrate Fang, "Master Li! What do you have to say to defend these things?!"
Taishi Li was knocked off his hat by the discount, and he knelt down in panic, denying it: "Your Majesty! Wei Chen is wronged! Wei Chen doesn't know these things at all! Someone must have harmed Wei Chen!"
Fang Muxi closed the appeal, looked at Taishi Li, and asked calmly: "Taishi Li, do you mean that my father wants to harm you?"
Taishi Li looked at Fang Muxi with gloomy eyes, wishing he could eat his flesh.
He regretted it so much! These two fathers and sons are working against him, and they should have been killed long ago!
In the end, he broke his tooth, swallowed the blood into his stomach, and responded coldly: "Don't get me wrong, Censor Fang. What I mean is that this matter is fishy, and you can't make random conclusions based on one word!"
"Of course it's not just one-sided words." Fang Muxi was unmoved. He turned around and saluted the emperor, "Your Majesty, my father also sent someone to leave a message to Wei Chen. He will personally come to Kyoto in a few days with witnesses and physical evidence. . Before that, please ask Your Majesty to temporarily control Taishi Li, and wait for my father to arrive to confront him in the hall."
Grand Master Li's expression changed drastically and his teeth chattered loudly. All the powerful officials behind him shrank their heads and did not dare to say anything.
Su Xiangguo, who had been silent all this time, finally stood up and said, "I agree with Fang Yushi's suggestion. Regardless of whether the matter is true or false, the suspect should be controlled first to prevent other mistakes."
As soon as Su Xiangguo spoke, most of the officials immediately stood up and echoed.
Even Prince Duan, who has always stayed out of court affairs, agreed.
Taishi Li knew that he could not escape this disaster today, but he still looked at Xiao Mo unwillingly.
However, Xiao Mo knew how to protect himself and naturally would not speak well of Taishi Li, so he lowered his head and did not look at Taishi Li.
Taishi Li's heart sank. After a while, he closed his eyes silently, hearing the emperor's cold and ruthless voice in his ears.
"Come here! Take Taishi Li into custody temporarily and wait until the prefect arrives to review the case!"
