Pink Conspiracy

Because of such a big case on New Year’s Eve, the entire capital city has lost the lively and festive atmosphere of the New Year, and the opera troupes originally prepared by the provinces have also stopped singing. Therefore, the entire capital is very quiet inside and outside.

Su Fengnuan returned to Su Mansion in the carriage. The butler met her and said quickly, "Miss is back? The general and his wife got up early and said that you are expecting to be back today and are waiting for you."

Su Fengnuan laughed, "When did my parents become so pretentious?"

The housekeeper laughed, "You go in."

Su Fengnuan nodded, entered the mansion gate, and went to the main courtyard.

Coming to the main courtyard, Madam Su was supporting Su Che on a walk. The two stopped when Su Fengnuan was back. Madam Su smiled and said, "I just told your father about you, thinking about you today. I will return to the house to reward you with the few begonias that you covered, but I didn't expect you to come back so early."

Su Fengnuan said, "I didn't want to reward Haitang for coming back, but to ask my father about something."

Su Che heard this and asked, "What's the matter?"

Su Feng Nuan said, "Let's talk in the room."

Su Che nodded, and Madam Su helped him into the house.

After entering the house, Su Fengnuan sat down and asked Su Che, "After you resigned, did you still pay attention to the capital?"

Su Che was taken aback, seeing her face solemnly, and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Su Fengnuan said, "I want to ask you, about the death of the only son of Shangshu Shen Rang of the Ministry of Households and his resignation when he fell ill, do you know what's inside?"

Su Che heard the words, "So you want to ask this."

Su Fengnuan nodded.

Su Che said, "Why did you suddenly ask him? It happened ten years ago?"

Su Fengnuan told him what she and Ye Chang had said yesterday when they were exploring the dead-end lane when they met with a quick mouth, and according to the major events that happened in his memory.

Su Che said, "Do you mean that the incident in the Shangshufu of the Household Department was related to the secret road case of the royal family?"

Su Fengnuan nodded, "I think it must be inseparable."

Su Che heard the words, "Back then, the Household Department Shang Shu Shen Rang resigned and returned to his hometown soon after I resigned. Our country is not too far away from him. Back then, I heard that his only son had an accident. After I resigned and returned home, I went there."

Su Fengnuan asked immediately, "Did you see him?"

Su Che said, "I saw it."

"How?" Su Fengnuan asked.

Su Che said, "I was very ill. When I went, I was dying."

Su Fengnuan frowned, "So he is dead?"

Su Che nodded.

Su Fengnuan asked, "Did he say anything to you before he died?"

Su Che thought for a while and said, "Before he died, he gave me something and said that if I return to Beijing one day and be in the court, I will take this thing out."

"Have you received it? Where is it?" Su Fengnuan asked.

Su Che said, "Take it." When the words fell, he turned to Madam Su, "Can you still keep the brocade box that I entrusted to you after I come back?"

Madam Su said on the side, "Take it away. When you come back, let me take it away seriously. I want to open it. You said Lord Shen told me that you would not return to the capital for recovery. You are not allowed to look at the contents for a day.” When the words fell, she said to Su Fengnuan again, “Your father obeyed the faith and asked me to put it away. He planned that he would never have a chance to see it in his life, but he did not expect After more than ten years, he really returned to office. But after too long time, after he returned to Beijing, I also forgot about this matter."

Su Fengnuan immediately said, "Mother, where did you keep it? Go and find out."

Madam Su nodded and went quickly.

Su Fengnuan asked Su Che, "In addition to something like that was given to you at the beginning, did Master Shen say anything else?"

Su Che shook his head, "There is nothing else to say, I only had time to meet him for the last time, without saying a few words."

Su Feng Nuan said, "What about her wife after he died?"

Su Che said, "He originally entrusted her wife to the care of the Shen family, but his wife was so loyal and sentimental. After his death, she also knocked to death in front of his coffin. We were buried together."

Su Fengnuan heard the words, "I didn't expect Madam Shen to be so loyal."

Su Che said, "Master Shen is of noble character, his wife is very temperamental with him, and they have only one son." When the words fell, he sighed and said, "Master Shen's family of three went away like that."

Su Fengnuan also sighed, "It is said that Lord Shen is a good official."

Su Che said, "Naturally, he is a good official, different from Jingyanghou, he is a good official who truly advocates for the country and the people. During his tenure, the Huhu Department did not have any corruption. After he left, the Huhu officials changed one term after another. Corruption cases are endless, and the treasury is becoming empty day by day."

Su Fengnuan said, "It's a pity that such a good official has now become a grassy grave."

At this moment, Mrs. Su came out with a brocade box, and while walking, while patting the dust on it, she came to the front and asked Su Che, "Look at this but this?"

Su Che took it, looked at it and said, "That's it." After the words fell, he passed it to Su Feng Nuan.

Su Fengnuan reached out and took it. Seeing that the brocade box was made of iron and was locked by a small iron lock, she pulled out the hairpin on her head and gently stabbed the lock to open the lock.

Su Che slapped her with a hand, slapped her on the shoulder, and cursed, "If you don't learn well, you can learn something that is only learned by people like gangsters."

Su Fengnuan rolled his eyes, was beaten innocently, and said angrily, "Father, no matter how good the world is, only the human heart can distinguish good from evil. Are you a general in vain? You don't even understand this truth. ."

Su Che choked.

Madam Su slapped Su Che with her hand and slapped him in the place where Su Fengnuan was hitting. She stared and said, "That's right, your daughter is reasonable. You are still a general in vain!"

Su Che looked at Su Fengnuan speechlessly, and said helplessly, "Well, I was wrong."

Madam Su hummed, "Apologize to my daughter."

Su Che was immediately dissatisfied, "How can I apologize to my children?"

Mrs. Su said, "You should apologize for what you did wrong. If the child did not do anything wrong, you should apologize if the innocent is beaten by you. If you are an old man, do you rely on your old age?"

Su Che was choked and was speechless.

Su Fengnuan tilted his head and looked at him with a smile, and said unceremoniously, "That's right, Dad wants to apologize to me."

Su Che looked at her proudly as a backer, smiled and cursed "Smelly Girl", and then smiled and said, "Okay, I apologize because I am wrong, so I shouldn't be narrow-minded."

Su Fengnuan waved his hand graciously, "Daddy is getting older and his head is really not working well, so I don't blame you. I forgive you!"

Su Che was angry again.

Mrs. Su sat down next to Su Fengnuan and urged, "Don't be mean, open it and see what's inside?"

Su Fengnuan nodded, took down the lock, and opened the brocade box. There were more than ten house deeds stacked in it, there was also a file, and a piece of self-written book by Shen Rang.

Su Fengnuan flipped through the ten or more house deeds and found that it was the house deed of more than ten households in that dead end, and that file was the file of that haunted house.

After reading it, she unfolded Shen Rang's handwritten book. After reading it, she said to Su Che, "I guessed right. It really happened to Master Shen that year."

Su Che said, "Take me a look."

Su Fengnuan handed the paper to Su Che.

Su Che looked at him, and he was furious. "It's unreasonable. I didn't expect it to be like this back then. If I had known it, I must..."

Su Fengnuan intercepted his words, "If you had known it a long time ago, you would definitely return to the capital, and ask the emperor to listen to the heavens, and avenge the justice of Lord Shen? Father, you think too simple. If you had returned to Beijing that year, you would be afraid But now it has long since become a waste tomb like Master Shen."

Su Che paused for a while.

Su Fengnuan solemnly said, "This matter is deeply involved. It seems that in those days someone wanted to take Mr. Shen for his own use, but Mr. Shen didn't buy it, so the man made a plot behind his back and killed his only son. He must be able to fight against others, and cannot afford to be ill. In the end, he can only resign and return to his hometown."

Su Che said with sorrow, "It's a pity that Lord Shen is such a good official!"

Su Fengnuan said, "Father, when you went to visit Lord Shen, did you go quietly? Didn't disturb anyone, right?"

Su Che said, "Not long after I resigned that year, after hearing about him, I rode quickly to the Shen clan where he returned home. It was to comfort him in the pain of losing his son, but I didn't expect to see him. The last side. When I went there, it was already at night. After he returned to his hometown, he brought only an old servant. He had been an official in Beijing for many years. The courtyard of the clan was abandoned, but he just lived in. When I found him, he There was no one in the yard. Seeing me there, he cried with joy and said that I came just right, otherwise people would come to me and entrust me with one thing, and that is it."

Su Fengnuan nodded.

Su Che said, "Later, when he finished entrusting this matter, he urged me to go quickly. I didn't want anyone in the Shen family to see me. I couldn't hold him back, so I could only cry goodbye. But even though I left Shen In the clan, but did not leave the local area, I found a restaurant to live in. I just lived in for less than an hour and a half, when I heard that Lord Shen had gone, Mrs. Shen hit and died in front of Lord Shen's coffin and followed Go now."

Su Fengnuan said, "It seems that Lord Shen's death back then was not related to the pressure imposed by the people behind him, but also the pressure on him by the Shen family. According to his self-book, Lord Shen back then Definitely not from the people behind and conspiracy, the man went to Jingyanghou. He was unable to cope with the two-pronged pressure. After the death of his only son, he was discouraged and left these things secretly, and he fell to the end."

Su Che nodded, "But now Jingyang Hou Mansion is already full of copycats, but this case is still unsuccessful. I don't know who it is, who has such a great ability, and conspired for so long. After the accidents of Jingyanghou, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and Pingjun Wangfu, they still hid so deeply. It is really frightening."
