Chapter 111: The Art of Witchcraft is Capable of Death
Jiang Wenbing punched him.
"Zhou Wenyi, you dare to hit me?"
"Why don't you dare?"
Zhou Wenqing had been staring at them, and when he saw that Jiang Wenbing had help, he rushed over and started fighting.
Zhou Chengru was so anxious that he jumped up and down.
Lord Jiang cursed a lot, but he showed no intention of asking his son to stop.
The two brothers of the Zhou family faced off against several brothers of the Jiang family, and they even broke several flower pots beside the water pavilion.
He still didn't stop. Shangqi, Su Yuxuan and Rong Rui moved far away.
"Yuxuan. The two Zhou brothers are holding back their shit."
"More than that. Jiang Wenbing is not a good guy either." Rong Rui said very pertinently.
"These two have long disliked each other and have been holding their breath to trip each other up. They are using today's gathering to give each other a warning."
Su Yuxuan sighed.
"It's not easy to make a close friend. But Brother Wang Anping is a decent man and worth making friends with."
Rong Rui nodded.
Shangqi glanced at Wang Anping. Isn’t this guy a relative of the Zhou family?
Not a good person.
Shangqi curled his lips.
Su Yuxuan seemed to see through Shangqi's thoughts, "Relatives are relatives. Brother Anping is different from them."
They were wondering why the fight was so intense?
King Kang smiled and stopped everyone from taking action.
He said he wanted to see who would win, and he even wanted to be the banker and take part in the jackpot.
Lord Lu rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's under the flowerpot?"
Su Buli's expression changed.
"No, nothing..."
Su Buli hurried over to pick it up, but was stopped lazily by King Kang. "Sir, Su Shaoqing, this isn't a love letter you wrote to a prostitute, is it?"
The fifth prince smiled.
"It is said that Su Shaoqing is the dream of thousands of girls in Beijing."
"I want to see it."
Su Buli blushed, "Don't look."
Zhou Chengru walked over with a smile, "Everyone, please stop making fun of Su Shaoqing. How about I take a look for you?"
Zhou Chengru was very happy.
The paper exposed in the soil was the same color as when they were buried there, and it could even be seen that it had been there for some time.
He was nervous and excited.
My heart is beating so hard.
"You are all in the same group. I don't want you to go and see." King Kang refused.
"Is it okay for me to take a look?"
Prince Cheng walked over and picked it up.
"Prince Cheng, please give me some face." Su Buli blushed, "These are just some of my true feelings written in my spare time."
Zhou Chengru was surprised.
What did Su Buli write?
How could he say he wrote it?
There was also a piece of paper of the same color in the mud on the other side. Zhou Chengru frowned, "Is that also written by Su Shaoqing?"
"No." Su Buli waved his hands quickly.
Just as Zhou Chengru was about to go over, someone snatched it away first.
Yao Tongzhi handed the letter to Shang Yan, "Commander Shang, please take a look."
"Prince Cheng, please go first."
Shang Yan gestured to Prince Cheng.
Su Buli pretended to be panicked and said, "It's just a personal matter. How dare I trouble Prince Cheng and Commander Shang?"
A sneer appeared on King Kang's lips.
"Witchcraft."
Su Zhixun and Su Buyi looked at each other and hurried forward.
"King Kang, you can drink as much as you want, but you can't say anything you want. Our Su family is loyal to the emperor, and witchcraft is punishable by death."
Someone brought up a little doll.
There were pins stuck into the little doll and a piece of paper wrapped around it.
"The Su family is so bold. They dare to practice witchcraft in the palace." The King Kang, who rarely showed up, was pleased. "Commander Shang, quickly arrest all the people in the Su family and send them to the imperial prison."
The imperial prison is not a place for human beings to stay.
Shang Yan's eyes were filled with coldness. "I didn't know that the Jinyi Guards still needed the orders from King Kang."
Yao Tongzhi covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and chuckled lazily: "Prince Kang was also doing this for the emperor, so it's inevitable that he was a little anxious."
"For the Emperor or for yourself? Humph, I, the Jinyiwei, am not blind."
King Kang didn't dare to confront the Jinyiwei head-on, fearing that Shangqi's knife would hit his neck. He knew that the Jinyiwei would make up irrefutable evidence even if he didn't have any.
I instantly became cowardly.
He glanced at the fifth prince stealthily.
The Fifth Prince seemed not to notice and stared at the two notes with interest. "I would like to see what is inside?"
Everyone listened.
The most important thing is the content inside.
That's the evidence.
Su Buli's face turned pale, as if someone had grabbed his throat. "Do you really want to see this?"
Prince Kang was very proud, "Shaoqing Su has a secret?"
Other families who were on good terms with the Su family wanted to cut off their ties immediately, while some who were particularly close to the Su family did not believe that the Su family would do something as suicidal as retrieving eggs.
The women on the opposite bank were all confused.
Only Su Rutang knew that things had reached the most critical step. Her clenched fists were full of sweat.
Lan Xuanji stayed among the ladies, not caring at all about other people's scrutiny.
Inside the water pavilion.
King Kang took a step forward and picked up the doll, on which was written the name of the Xiliang Emperor. On a piece of yellow paper next to it was written in blood an accusation of Xiliang's atrocities against the people and soldiers of the Great Zhou.
King Kang’s face turned pale.
He looked down at Zhou Chengru and the fifth prince.
"What did King Kang see? Why was he so scared?" Some people couldn't help but be curious.
Seeing that King Kang looked very unhappy, Zhou Chengru did not dare to speak with the lines he had prepared before. He just took a step back and gave Zhou Wenyi a cold look.
Zhou Wenyi's face was bruised and swollen, and he wanted to make a comeback with the Zhou family's achievements today.
He didn't notice Zhou Chengru's expression at all.
He asked a question:
"Written in blood?"
Shang Yan snorted in disdain:
"The Zhou family really has rules. It turns out that if the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked."
This one sentence nailed the Zhou family to the pillar of shame.
Prince Cheng unfolded the paper in his hand, on which he had written his best wishes to the emperor and the Great Zhou Dynasty with a cinnabar pen, wishing he could use the most gorgeous words to fill it.
After reading it, Prince Cheng looked at Su Buli thoughtfully.
"Can you know the crime?"
Su Buli knelt down hurriedly, "I admit my guilt."
“Please invite Minister Su, General Su, Major General Su, and Junior Secretary Su to accompany me to meet the emperor. Everything will be decided by the emperor.” King Cheng had a dignified look on his face, as if the Su family had committed a serious crime.
King Kang breathed a sigh of relief.
"This prince will say that the Su family is guilty."
The crowd was in an uproar.
The men of the Su family and the elders of the Su tribe were all serious.
Zhou Chengru couldn't suppress his joy.
I thought something went wrong, but I didn't expect that the key evidence was the one in Prince Cheng's hands.
Yao Tongzhi personally put the two pieces of evidence in a bag, and Shang Yan and Prince Cheng entered the palace in the same carriage.
Dispersed.
The female relatives learned that something must have happened to the Su family.
Madam Jian looked at Lan Xuanji, wanting to say something but stopping herself, and finally sighed softly. "I remember that I've been feeling weak lately, so I'm afraid I can't drink anymore."
Lan Xuanji knew that this was a matter of expressing one's attitude.
All of a sudden.
All the guests of the Su family have left.
Old Madam Shen also comforted Lan Xuanji and asked her to find a way to send a child out. "I can help you when you get out of the city."
Lan Xuanji bit her lip and refused.
"I believe my husband and his men will not do anything to let down the emperor."
Old Madam Shen was thinking that it might be the result of some scoundrels.
"Ah, it's all fate..."
After hearing a few words of gossip, the old man knew what Zhou Wenyi must have done. Ever since the Su family married into the Prince Li's mansion, the emperor had been wary of them.
Old Madam Shen took Shen Yunying away.
Shen Yunying kept looking at Su Rutang with tears in her eyes, "Rutang. Everything will be fine."
"Okay. It's okay. If you kept crying like that, I would have thought something happened." Old Madam Shen patted the back of Shen Yunying's hand, and she was so scared that she quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Everyone left in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Chengru also used the excuse that there was something going on in the Ministry of Works and hurried to the Ministry of Works to inquire about the progress of the matter.
Su Rutang called Zhou Wenyi and Zhou Wenqing.
Zhou Wenqing was very happy.
"Mom, I helped Wen Yi fight today. Isn't that brotherly love?"
"is it?"
Su Rutang was sitting in the pavilion. On the table next to him were plates of fish that he hadn't had time to eat.
"Zhou Wenyi. What did you do?"
Zhou Wenyi was ecstatic, but his face showed no sign of it. If she could hide her inner feelings at such a young age, how cunning she would be when she grows up.
"Mother, I shouldn't have fought with Jiang Wenbing. But..."
He gritted his teeth and said:
"He said my mother was from a brothel, and I fought with him for your sake."
"Nonsense. He was talking about your mother. What does that have to do with me? You didn't come out of my belly, so I don't need you to get angry with him because of me."
