As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly fell silent. Everyone looked at Su Yongwang. Su Yongwang was over eighty years old this year and was still in good health. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he directly explained, "Wang Changhe doesn't want to take the responsibility himself." If he commits a crime, he will definitely deny it.”
Su Yongqiang also nodded, "That's what I mean too. Since there is a heavy punishment, even if Wang Changhe is the mastermind, he will not be willing to bear it. Instead, he will deny it, but the people he can deny also need to have evidence.
The county magistrate has always settled cases, so accusations without evidence are probably useless.
Needless to say, the relationship between Wang Changhe and our Su family happened to be that the two of them had been to Wang Changhe's house. Even if they just revealed the news, Wang Changhe would label them as the mastermind.
And it just so happens that they are still members of the princess's family. When the time comes, it will be the princess who is in trouble, and our Su family will also be implicated. "
Su Yongqiang's logic was very clear. The reason why he and Qin Zhong inquired about the punishment Wang Changhe and Wang Xiaotian would receive was to judge how the Su family would deal with Su Fugui and Su Sanshou.
But obviously, Qin Zhong's harsh punishment is not good news for the Su family.
"Not only that, if they are still in the Su family, the crimes they committed will affect the future of the imperial examination for all descendants of our Su family!" Su Yongwang added.
At present, the laws of Qihuang Kingdom are strict. If there are criminals in the family, the more repeated crimes committed by their relatives, the imperial examinations will be affected.
Some were unable to take the imperial examination for the fifth generation, and some even had the opportunity only after the ninth generation. Even so, unless candidates from families with criminals were extremely outstanding, examiners would basically prefer candidates whose families were all good people.
This is how the country enables each family to restrain themselves and avoid committing crimes. The laws are strict and ordinary families know this, so once it is discovered that there is such a desperado in the family, basically every family will The solution that families will choose is to eliminate the clan.
In order to prevent the family from being implicated in this way, Luo Xinghe used this rule to eliminate Luo Xingchen, and he succeeded.
Now the Su family is facing the same problem. Su Yongwang figured it out, so he said what he just said, these two families can't stay.
They are all old people who have been here for many years. They are very shrewd as they get older. So when Su Yongqiang and Su Yongwang said this, everyone also reacted. They looked at each other and saw the door that Su Yongqiang had just closed. They said together, "This is the matter." Only we people know."
If you handle matters such as extermination of the clan by yourself before learning of the crime, it is called handling family affairs normally. However, if you do it after getting certain information, it is deliberately evading responsibility, and it is not a matter of the same nature.
Su Yongqiang just closed the door, which is what he meant. It is enough for them to know about this matter, and they must not tell it. At the same time, there must be an upright reason to deal with those related to this matter, so as to preserve the innocence and future of the entire family.
"That's what I mean too. Qin Captou will definitely find an opportunity to repay the favor in the future. But when people are brought here later, please also ask the clan elders to cooperate. Let's clarify the matter. How many families are involved and who are they? Then we will discuss it and see how to deal with it without affecting the future and future of our Su family."
Su Yongqiang also means the same thing now. As the leader of the clan, he naturally hopes that everyone in the clan will get better, but as the clan is big, there are good people who rely on others. The interests of most people in the clan are the most important, not to mention the Su Fugui and Su San who are currently known. Life is not an injustice.
