Chapter 860: The Yellow Sparrow is behind
(Thanks to the monthly pass of Le Cha Cha, Tenjin Blade, and Wood-HDC)
The tall man had a throwing knife stuck in his chest, and he hit the heart impartially, so he was killed without even screaming, still holding a grasping posture.
All the thugs looked around with knives and looked around to watch, only to see figures swishing, miscellaneous footsteps, and dozens of figures flashing from the withered grass around them, and the gaps in the dilapidated courtyard walls, all of them were fully armored horse soldiers, these people surrounded the remaining seven thugs without saying a word, and the weapons in their hands were on guard.
The temple door creaked and screeched, and a young man with a beautiful face walked out slowly with two powerful men, followed by Brother Jin who was lying on his back.
The thugs understood that this was the right way, and they had already set a trap waiting for them, but they were still ignorant of their own group.
"Who are you? In broad daylight, the people in the capital dared to openly kill people. One of the thugs shouted with courage.
Su Jin smiled: "Don't pretend, everyone knows it, why bother?" Drop your knife and take it now, or you'll end up like this dead man. Su Jin stretched out his hand and forked the forehead of the tall man, and the tall man's body fell to the ground with a bang.
The thugs looked at each other, but refused to put down the steel knife in their hands, Su Jin waited for a while, and finally said impatiently: "It's all stupid people who don't recognize the limelight, they are all taken down by me, and those who resist will be slashed and killed." ”
The soldiers shouted, waved their weapons forward, a thug subconsciously raised a knife to resist, a big man with nostrils to the sky and an ugly face opened his abdomen with a single knife, and the hot and steaming intestines flowed to the ground, and the man was not dead for a while, wailing and rolling on the ground, miserable.
All the thugs were all broken, but the number one person with high martial arts among them was lying on the ground, and he was cut down to the ground before he could reach the edge, what chance did these people have to escape? Now there is only one way to surrender.
The six thugs threw down their swords and surrendered, Su Jin ordered all the people to be tied up, and the whole team returned to the city, they did not take people to any yamen, but returned directly to their own mansion, because Su Jin understood that no one can believe it now, who knows if there will be any eyeliner infiltrated in the yamen on an errand, if you want not to startle the snake, you can only interrogate these people in the mansion, and as soon as possible, so that the other party does not have a chance to react and make up for it.
After returning to the mansion, Su Jin immediately began to interrogate the six thugs, and these six people did not let go of their mouths at first, only saying that they saw Jin Ge'er walking alone in the wilderness, and they had the idea of seeking money, so they started to rob them. Disaster; Su Jin didn't talk nonsense with them, and went directly to the punishment, and all kinds of punishments were rounded, and some of them still stiffened up and didn't say anything, but there were always one or two soft bones who couldn't help but start to explain the punishment.
As soon as one person began to relent, the insistence of the others was meaningless, but more suffering, and by noon, all six thugs had confessed their confessions and pleaded guilty.
However, the value of the confessions of these six people is not as great as imagined, although these people admit that they are Xia Zhu's subordinates, but they only carry out the order to kill Jin Ge'er, and it is not Xia Zhu who directly gives the order but the tall boss who died who took the lead, as for why he monitored Jin Ge'er and killed him, although he also knew the reason, but he heard it from the mouth of the tall boss.
Su Jin regretted not falling, the tall boss who died was the most important witness, but he was shot by Zhao Hu's flying knife in one shot, which was really a big omission.
But even so, linking Jin Ge'er's confession with the confession of these people, it is still easy to infer that this big case of slandering Fu Bi and Shi Jie is Xia Zhu's behind-the-scenes operation, which is almost well known to people with a little reasoning ability.
Although Su Jin had been mentally prepared, when Xia Zhu's name fell into his ears, Su Jin still fell into hesitation, he didn't have any good feelings about Xia Zhu, he could have entered the palace immediately to ask to see the emperor, and presented all the evidence, and what to do next was the emperor's business, but Su Jin wanted to ask for the opinion of one person, and that person was Xia Siling.
After Su Jin returned to the inner house and told Xia Siling about the matter, Xia Siling's face turned pale, this is not an ordinary crime, the crime of framing the court officials and disturbing the court will be beheaded, no matter what, he is such a relative in the world, Xia Siling can't accept this fact.
"Ling'er, what do you say? I listen to you. Su Jin lovingly took her in his arms and gently rubbed Xia Siling's shoulder, how could he ignore the pain in this poor person's heart.
"I don't know, how could Daddy do such a thing? It's up to the husband to decide. Xia Siling's face was like white paper, leaning weakly on Su Jin's arms, tears flowing wildly.
Su Jin sighed: "If I enter the palace to return to the palace, your father's life will be difficult to protect, if I don't return truthfully, the unjust case of Lord Shi and Lord Fu will not be revealed, and I am also very embarrassed about this matter." ”
Xia Siling sobbed: "The slave family has nothing to say, no matter what decision you make, the slave family doesn't blame you, only blame your father's bad heart, in short, the slave family is miserable." ”
Su Jin understands that Xia Siling is empathetic, she will never cry and beg to kneel down like ordinary women to ask Su Jin to spare Xia Zhu, but her mind is indeed clear, if she can spare Xia Zhu's life, Xia Siling will be grateful to herself for the rest of her life.
Su Jin ordered her maid to comfort and take care of Xia Siling, and came to the study alone to sit and ponder. In Su Jin's opinion, killing Xia Zhu is not much good for him, although Xia Zhu is cunning and insidious, but he has fought with him several times, Xia Zhu has not been able to help himself, on the contrary, he was abducted and ran away from his daughter.
Every time he returns to Beijing, Xia Zhu will find himself, ask Xia Siling about his current situation, and send a few boxes of jewelry and clothes, the purpose of which is naturally not to want Xia Siling to suffer, and to treat her well.
This time, it was easy to kill Xia Zhu, but after killing him, it is true that an unstable factor can be removed, but it is obvious that such a big matter will not be Xia Zhu's plot alone, there must be a large number of his comrades in the court, and killing him may cause more trouble; Besides, the most important thing is that he is Xia Siling's father, in fact, he is his father-in-law, and he can't face Xia Siling if he kills him, and there will be a gap between Xia Siling and himself in the future, which Su Jin never wants to see, for Xia Siling Su Jin has a guilty heart, this woman follows herself without regrets, and once saved her life, she must not do anything that makes her sad.
Although it is difficult to weigh the dilemma, after careful consideration, Su Jin decided to abandon the ridiculous concept of social justice in his heart, and the choice in this matter should be to maximize his own interests.
In short, it can not only clarify Shi Jiefubi's grievances, but also not kill Xia Zhu, if you can take this opportunity to grab Xia Zhu's pigtails, so that he can obey his orders and master Xia Zhu from now on, it will be much more meaningful than killing Xia Zhu.
Mastering Xia Zhu is mastering a large potential force, although this move may cause a backlash, but as long as he does it skillfully, his life in the court will be much better in the future.
Su Jin was very surprised by his thoughts, he didn't expect that he could make such a decision, the seeds of justice in his heart always jumped out from time to time, and always encouraged him to take this opportunity to get rid of Xia Zhu, but Su Jinqiang suppressed this impulse, and after several years of grinding in this era, he has become very realistic, there is no eternal enemy, only eternal interests, and the most beneficial thing for his own interests is, of course, to control Xia Zhu for his own use, and at the same time not to hurt the feelings between himself and Xia Siling, Other things can only be considered for the time being.
Thinking about this section, Su Jin's immediately began to act, he immediately wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it out immediately, and at the same time summoned Wang Dynasty Mahan and others to inform him of his idea of letting Xia Zhu go, and unify everyone's tone; For Su Jin's decision, Wang Dynasty Ma Han and the others were only slightly surprised, but when they thought that the second lady Xia Siling was the daughter of Xia Zhu, they were relieved, the prince must have done it for the face of the second lady, on the contrary, they were a little sympathetic to Su Jin, and it was really difficult to put this matter on themselves.
In the afternoon, someone came to deliver the letter in front of Su's house, Su Jin took a nap, and after receiving the letter, he only took a look, and immediately sent someone to prepare the carriage and horse to go out, not only that, but he also brought Xia Siling, who did not appear in public in the capital.
On the way, Xia Siling asked Su Jin: "Where do you want to take the slave family?" ”
Su Jin smiled: "Take you to meet the person you want to see the most." ”
Xia Siling thought for a while and said, "Husband has decided? ”
Su Jindao: "What to decide?" ”
Xia Siling said faintly: "The slave family doesn't blame the husband, and the husband's righteous act of killing relatives is not at fault." ”
Su Jin smiled: "How do you know that I will kill my relatives in righteousness?" ”
Xia Siling said: "Are you taking me to see my father for the last time?" Anyway, Daddy is already guilty of an unforgivable crime, and you don't have to fear that he will take the slave family away from you. ”
Su Jin said with a smile: "It's true that I'm taking you to see Lord Xia, but it's not the last time, I took you to ask your father to issue a marriage certificate, although we are married, but it is unknown to outsiders, you can't be locked in all day long, you always have to see the light." ”
Xia Siling was puzzled: "In this situation, my father is about to be imprisoned by you, and it is even more unlikely that he will agree with his temper." ”
Su Jin said: "Don't worry, it depends on when you lose your temper, this time I promise that your father will agree, you relax, I have already thought of a way, you are such a relative in the world, how could I be ruthless to throw him in prison, for you, I can only live up to the grace of God." ”
Xia Siling was pleasantly surprised: "Did my husband say that he wouldn't kill my father?" ”
Su Jin said: "How can a son-in-law kill his father-in-law." ”
Xia Siling said: "Then how do you make a difference?" Rich adults, what should they do? ”
Su Jin smiled and said: "I don't have to think about this matter, with your father's wisdom, he will definitely have a way to teach me to be satisfied." ”
