Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 13 Sun Li Has Suspicion!

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome right now."

Su Rao shook her head lightly, her eyes passed him, and she fell on a figure not far away, "This case will be retried soon."

"how is this possible……"

Zhao Ping wanted to ask again, but when he looked up, he found that she was not in the right mind, so he turned his head to look along the line of sight, and when he saw it, he suddenly felt pale!

What kind of a person is that!

He sits quietly under the shadow of the tree, with flowing clouds and wide sleeves, and deep clothes of moon brocade. His face is like a crown of jade, and his eyebrows are like stars. At first glance, he looks handsome and upright, with loose crane bones. Looking closely, I feel that the picturesque face is thin and cold, clearly close in front of my eyes, but it seems to be separated by clouds.

Looking at it made people feel ashamed, Zhao Ping immediately lowered his head as if being burned, and said in a trembling voice: "This, this young master is..."

Su Rao was thinking about how to explain Yan Yun's identity, when he heard his usual indifferent and cool voice, "The imperial court has sent an envoy to Huanhua County to announce the decree, and it will arrive in two days at the latest."

"Master, you mean... Qin, the imperial envoy..."

Zhao Ping was shocked to hear the news, stuttered even more excited, and murmured in disbelief, "How could the imperial court send an envoy here in this poor land? Could it be... Could it be that God opened his eyes..."

He was dazed for a while, then knelt up straight as if awakened from a dream, bowed to Yan Yun, hesitated to raise his head, and said hesitantly: "Dare to ask my lord, the imperial envoy of the imperial court will really preside over for us. Is it fair..."

This sentence can be described as disrespectful. If other officials heard it, they would more or less punish him for committing the crime of usurpation.

Yan Yun just stared at him indifferently, different from Su Rao's sharpness, but calm without any waves, his thin lips parted slightly, and said: "Yes!"

The simple word was like a booster, instantly calming down all the uneasiness and apprehension in Zhao Ping's heart.

Even he himself wondered why he would trust a stranger of unknown origin for no reason, as if that person was born with the majesty of being submissive and adored, and did not dare to give birth to the slightest rebellious heart.

"Thank you sir."

Zhao Ping bowed to him respectfully again.

Seeing Yan Yun looking at her, Su Rao knew that he had already said what he had to say, and it was up to her to continue asking, so she moved a stool and placed it in front of Zhao Ping, "Mr. Feel free to tell me."

"You ask."

Zhao Ping barely stood up, shook the dust on his robe, and sat down slowly, his tone much calmer than before.

"How did you find out that Liu Tang wanted to attack Mrs. Li and went looking for my father instead?"

Su Rao didn't beat around the bush anymore, and asked directly.

"It just so happens that when Sun Li tied Mrs. Li, I was also on the barren hill outside the city."

Zhao Ping paused, and said sadly: "Yesterday was the anniversary of Lian Er's death. I was going to burn paper for her, and I ran into Sun Li sneaking down the mountain with a bag on his back. With a quick glance, I found out that it was Mrs. Li."

"She was knocked unconscious and couldn't be woken up. Seeing that Sun Li was coming back soon, I had no choice but to leave first, and then followed them all the way into the city. When I arrived at the tofu shop, I found Liu Tang waiting inside."

After seeing this scene, he still didn't understand. Lian'er's tragic death was still in front of him. He couldn't stand by and watch, but he didn't dare to rush in to save people and turn against Liu Tang.

At the critical moment, Sun Li reminded him with one sentence.

"He said, 'No one in the city knows that the Su family and Mrs. Li have a close relationship'. I remembered that Mr. Su dared to confront the Liu family for you, and would not ignore Mrs. Li, so I hurried to find him. "

"Then why did you follow my father to the tofu shop?"

According to Zhao Ping's temperament, finding someone to rescue Mrs. Li is already the best of humanity. He doesn't want to offend the Liu family, so leaving directly is the best choice.

Zhao Ping glanced at her in surprise, how did she know that she was following her?
"After Mr. Su left, I wanted to leave, but I always felt a little uneasy in my heart. After much deliberation, I decided to follow the past to have a look. Who knew this..."

He regretted it a little!
"Ms. Li was strangled to death by Liu Tang with a belt. Mr. Su rushed in to save others and was brutally murdered. I, I was too scared at the time, I didn't dare to stay and ran back home..."

Later, I heard that a child went in to play and bumped into a dead person, and made a fuss. I also heard that she was going to the county government to beat drums to complain, so I rushed over to see it.

He hid in the dark, watching the case become clear step by step, watching Sun Li being pushed out to take the blame, watching the magistrate go from doing nothing to closing the case forcefully, watching... the old things unfolded step by step, repeating the same mistakes.

Anger, helplessness, struggle, hesitation, in the end only numbness and mockery are left, mocking her naivety and ridiculousness, mocking the life in this world as cheap as grass, mocking them as humble as ants but wanting to shake the tree...

But she secretly captured him and said these words.

The intelligence and tenacity of his mind made him feel ashamed, and he couldn't help but have some delusions—maybe, they really still have a chance!

Su Rao had been listening silently, and when he finished speaking, she suddenly asked softly, "Where is Miss Zhao's tomb located on the barren mountain?"

"In the shade on the mountainside, about two miles southeast from Shili Pavilion."

After Zhao Ping answered subconsciously, he wondered: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Master Li's tomb is at the top of the south of the mountain. You said that when you met Sun Li, he had already carried someone down the mountain. In other words, he knocked someone unconscious and took him away in front of the tomb or on the way Mrs. Li went to the cemetery. But no matter which one, Going down the mountain from Shiliting is a detour."

"What is his purpose in doing this?"

Having said that, Zhao Ping also felt a little strange.

Su Rao narrowed her eyes dangerously, and said coldly, "Then I have to ask him."

One is a coincidence, and the two cannot still be coincidences. Earlier, Zhao Ping said that it was Sun Li who reminded him with a word, but Sun Li had already tied him up, but he suddenly mentioned the friendship between Su's family and Mrs. Li as a pretext. Here to persuade Liu Tang...

Isn't it weird?

If it is said that this action is caused by people's hesitation before committing a crime, what about detours?
Sun Li may have a lot to say about him!
If he did all this deliberately, what good would it do him to cause a conflict between father and Liu Tang?For Dad?Or for Liu Tang?
Dad has no enmity with him, and there is no motive for this move.

If it was aimed at Liu Tang, why would he do this? How could he be willing to take the blame for Liu Tang if he could design these things?

"Sun Li is locked in the county government prison. We have no way to go in for questioning. Why don't we wait for two more days until the imperial envoy arrives. There is always a chance to find out when he is promoted to overturn the case."

Liu Tang was undoubtedly the murderer, Zhao Ping didn't understand why Su Rao insisted on such trivial matters, but seeing her frowning, as if deeply worried, he couldn't help but comfort her.

Su Rao nodded and said: "Mr. Zhao said, it's only two days, I can afford to wait!"

As she said that, she raised her eyes to look in the direction of the county government office, a cold light flashed silently in her eyes...
