After all, Mrs. Su was old and in a high position, and everyone couldn't help but feel sad when she cried so sincerely.
Xiao Heng was the most senior person here, so he snorted coldly: "If there really is such a sinister person, no matter who he is, he is disturbing other people's inner curtains, bribing other people's servants, spying on the secrets, deceiving the master, the person behind it is worthy of death, damn it!"
Lord Qin's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that the matter was of no small importance. He immediately comforted Old Madam Su with a few words, and then interrogated the housekeeper and the maid of the Su family, and obtained testimony that Madam Zhong had indeed stolen a large sum of money.
Then Lord Qin interrogated the midwife again. This time he was not so polite. With the midwife's family members brought by Su Rong, the midwife was shaking like a sieve. This time she was really shaking. She was so scared that she peed her pants and cried, "I don't know. I just listened to other people's orders. Someone gave me money to say so, so I said it!"
Once one person confessed, a second one would come. When the steward of the Shen family came up, he saw the miserable state of the midwife and his legs went limp. When Lord Qin threatened to torture her, he had already been blocked by Su Rong's men before, so there was no need for him to be tortured again. He quickly pointed out the two people who had taught him the lie that the Shen couple did have a dead daughter, and he wished he could clear himself of any connection with the matter.
Lord Qin has sorted things out by now.
The so-called replacement of a daughter into the Su family is completely false.
The reason why Mrs. Su San reported the case to the authorities was because she was deceived by the cunning servant.
Why did Diao Nu deceive
This is the focus of the subsequent review.
Lord Qin glanced at Wang Tuiguan, who understood and pointed at Nanny Zhong to the two yamen runners. The two yamen runners immediately grabbed Nanny Zhong and hit her on the back of her knees without mercy, knocking her to the ground. Her knees were probably broken.
Nanny Zhong hadn't even reacted completely yet, and when she did, she started to cry out for help, and begged Third Madam to save her.
She was confused.
She never expected that the Su family said that the house, land and other things she received from outside were stolen from Mrs. Su San. How could she collude with others just to conceal the dowry of Mrs. Su San
How could she have that ability
But she didn't have time to explain, as Lord Qin had already slammed the gavel: "You cunning slave, why don't you tell the truth!?"
Mrs. Su San was anxious to come out and explain, but Mrs. Su had already stared at her coldly and said, "Old Third Wife, you have been deceived. Even if you don't care about yourself, you should still care about Ah Xia!"
Su Yu!
Mrs. Su San opened her eyes and looked at Old Madam Su, and was met with Old Madam Su's cold eyes.
In all these years, she had never seen Mrs. Su with such a cold expression.
She was subconsciously stunned.
Lord Qin has already ordered the torture.
When Nanny Zhong was put in the clamp, she fainted with her eyes rolled back in pain. She had always been the housekeeper in the Su family. When Third Madam Su was doing well, even if they were not valued, their status was not comparable to that of ordinary people. She had never suffered any hardship. Now that the severe punishment was used, there was no need to increase the punishment. After being woken up by a basin of water, she burst into tears: "Sir, please spare me, sir, please spare me, I confess, I confess everything. Someone bribed me to deceive Third Madam and instigate her to find the midwife who delivered her baby..."
Lord Qin had a solemn expression on his face. He glanced at the clerk beside him and saw that the clerk had finished writing quickly. He then asked the clerk to read Nanny Zhong's testimony in court.
Nanny Zhong was in so much pain that she was a little confused. She just nodded randomly when she heard everything. When the clerk came down and asked her to sign her name, she collapsed on the side like a dead dog, gasping for breath.
With the testimony in hand, Lord Qin gave an order to interrogate the person who had handed over the Shen family's steward.
That one was much more stubborn. Even after being tortured several times, he still refused to confess.
Lord Qin had many ways to deal with people like this. After repeated torture, the man finally told the truth and said that he was also following orders.
After getting the testimony, Lord Qin ordered people to arrest various suspects.
The case took a sharp turn for the worse and after several changes, it was no longer a question of one's family background. Lord Qin looked at the time and, after questioning Xiao Heng, he adjourned the court temporarily and decided to retry the case in two days.
Everyone had left, but Mrs. Su San still hadn't reacted.
She thought she had caught the Su family off guard, and she also thought her plan was thorough enough, but in the end, she didn't accomplish anything she wanted to do in court, nor did she disgust anyone in the Su family. Instead, she acted as bait for the Su family and helped them get things done? !
She was dazed, but Old Madam Su was wide awake. She gave her a stern look and had several sturdy maids come forward to support Madam Su San, saying that she was so angry that she had lost her mind.
Most of the people watching the fun outside had already received the news and couldn't help but talk about it.
Madam Hu and Madam Yang looked at each other. They were sitting opposite each other. Seeing the Su family members coming out, they were both shocked and confused. Madam Hu was even more shocked and murmured to herself: "It's really like a dream. Su Yao is my biological daughter. It's just that someone deliberately wanted to frame her and disrupt the Su family's inner courtyard. Who has such a deep hatred for the Su family?"
Someone who had such a deep hatred for the Su family was sitting in a private room on the second floor. The room was clearly warm as spring, but her hands and feet were ice-cold for the first time, and she felt numb even after moving a few times.
Everyone in the room held their breath and dared not say a word. The silence here made the noisy noise outside particularly obvious.
Qi Yunxi was silent for a long time, then suddenly stood up and slapped the person who came to report the news: "What's going on?! Didn't you say that everything has been arranged properly and there will be no mistakes?! Is this what you call an arrangement?!"
She never really took Su Yao seriously.
To be conceited, even Queen Hu fell into her trap, and Mrs. He and others were always played around by her. As the descendant of these people, even if Su Yao was capable and a little clever, in Qi Yunxi's eyes, he was just a more troublesome cat or dog, and was only a little interesting.
She always thought that as long as she wanted, she could crush Su Yao to death by just raising her finger.
Just like this time, she was not very happy in her heart and naturally raised her finger. It was obvious that the person over there was a different person from Xu Shunshang, but she still distractedly raised a finger to crush the little cat that was just making trouble.
But she suddenly discovered that the kitten's claws seemed much sharper than she had imagined.
