"Sir, Miss Su is here."
"Oh, please bring people in quickly."
As soon as he heard that Su Yu was coming, Ding Yan's attitude was completely different from the beginning. Soon Su Yu came to Ding Yan's office. Looking at the four people following Su Yu, Ding Yan's mouth twitched. He didn't know but thought that the girl Su in front of him was a rich daughter of some family. No, even if Even a rich lady would not be treated like this. He knew that one of them was Lord Yu's attendant, and the other two knew that they were masters just by looking at their aura. Needless to say, he knew that they were ordered by the emperor himself. Ding Yan was relieved now. He didn't need to worry about Miss Su's safety.
Su Yu didn't let the few people behind him wait at the door. The three of them were sent by the emperor. If they didn't believe them, they didn't believe the emperor. And with the ears of the other two people, even if they whispered in the room, they could still She could hear it, so she didn't waste her time. Qinglin didn't go out with anyone else, so it seemed unreasonable to call him out alone.
"Master Ding, I wonder how the investigation I told you is going?"
"I have sent people to investigate at the same time as Mr. Jiang, and now we have some clues. If I am correct, the ghost in the government office should be Mr. Chang next to Mr. Jiang."
Su Yu paused while drinking tea. She didn't expect that the gang's skills were so good. They could even bribe Mr. Chang who was next to Jiang Fu Yin. She had seen Mr. Chang when she went to the Kyoto government office last time. He looks like a skinny little old man, very well-behaved, but you didn't expect that?
"Our people went to check on Mr. Chang. Although he is usually frugal, the family in his hometown is not like that. Mr. Chang is alone in Kyoto. His parents, wife and children are all in his hometown. His hometown is far away from the city of Kyoto. It’s not far away, only a few dozen kilometers away. Our people went to Master Chang’s hometown overnight. In the past few years, the Chang family has built a new house in their hometown. The family does nothing, but they usually have nothing to eat. It’s poor, and the family has no income and can still provide for their two sons to study, so there must be something wrong with Mr. Chang.”
This is indeed abnormal, and Su Yu also feels that it is undoubtedly Master Chang.
As soon as Su Yu heard what Ding Yan said, someone came outside to report that Mr. Chang had been arrested by Jiangfu Yin and was being interrogated by the Kyoto government office.
"Ask Jiang Fuyin to bring the person to Dali Temple for trial."
"Yes, sir."
The Kyoto government office was too lax and usually only locked up some insignificant prisoners. Ding Yan was afraid that the prisoners would be gone before he could ask Master Chang about them, so to be on the safe side, he still had to bring them to the prison. Dali Temple came to review.
After the others left, Su Yu complimented.
"Master Ding is still thoughtful."
Ding Yan was a little surprised to see Su Yu say this. He had not forgotten that when Su Yu came here on the first day, he could not suppress the arrogance in his body. Now he would even flatter someone?
Less than half an hour later, Master Chang was taken to Dali Temple. Looking at the injuries all over his body, Master Chang must have suffered a lot of torture at the Kyoto government office.
When Ding Yan saw the injuries on Mr. Chang's body, he couldn't help but blame Jiang Fuyin in his heart. Even if he wanted to prove his innocence, he didn't have to beat him to death like this. How could he interrogate him?
"Master Ding, why don't you hand the person over to me for trial?"
Thinking of Su Yu's way of judging people, Ding Yan also wanted to learn more skills and agreed without any hesitation.
Soon at Su Yu's request, Chang Wei was cleaned up, given medicine, and sent to a room.
Su Yu entered the room and sat on the chair opposite, smiling as usual at Chang Wei opposite him.
"Master Chang, we meet again."
Chang Wei looked up and saw Su Yu sitting opposite, but he quickly lowered his head.
Seeing his attitude, it was obvious that he had planned not to speak, but these were trivial matters to Su Yu.
"I heard that Master Chang's two sons are both in his hometown, and both of them are young scholars. I think it would be very difficult for Master Chang to support a family with two scholars."
Seeing Su Yu mention his two sons, Chang Wei raised his head and looked at Su Yu again.
"Master Chang, why don't you tell me where you got the newly built house in your hometown and the money for your two sons to go to school?"
"I earned it from the private work of writing petition papers outside."
Su Yu didn't know if this happened, so he looked at the half-open window on one side. Out of Chang Wei's sight, Ding Yan was standing outside the window. Su Yu looked over and nodded to Su Yu. Yu had some confidence in his heart that Master Chang had indeed taken over the private work in this area.
But Su Yu really didn't know how much money a single private job cost.
"Here, bring a chair over and call Mr. Ding over."
Soon, an official came in with a chair and placed it next to her according to Su Yu's instructions. Ding Yan followed and sat on the chair.
Su Yu motioned to Ding Yan to continue asking. Ding Yan was listening outside just now and naturally knew Su Yu's shortcomings.
"In ordinary people's homes, a piece of complaint only costs ten or more ten cents. For wealthy families, it only costs a few taels. I'm afraid this little money is not enough to support your family of more than ten people in your hometown. Do you think I am a fool?"
Chang Wei has a pair of elderly parents, a wife and two sons. His younger brother and his family of four are lazy and lazy. The Chang family all look to Chang Wei. They can live on the little salary that Chang Wei brings them every month. How could Wei's salary as a master be enough to support a family of nine? Under the pressure of his family, Chang Wei had to take on some errands of writing petitions in his free time. Because he didn't want others to know, he asked him to write petitions. Not much, this is simply a drop in the bucket for the Chang family.
After hearing what Ding Yan said, Chang Wei on the opposite side stopped talking.
Su Yu signaled to Ding Yan to be gentler and took over the conversation himself. As long as people live in this world, they have desires. She thinks what Chang Wei cares about most is his two sons. This is a major event that can change a family's family.
"I think those people have promised you that they will save your two sons when the time comes, but have you ever thought carefully about whether you really think that the other party has the ability to save your two sons unless the emperor personally nods them after committing such a big thing? Your two sons?"
Seeing that Chang Wei lowered his head and did not respond, but the hand on his knee moved. This was an obviously tangled reaction. Su Yu was not anxious at all and picked up the tea cup next to him and took a sip of tea.
"Master Chang, you might as well think about it carefully. As long as you tell who is behind the scenes, I can ask Mr. Ding to plead with the emperor to save the lives of your two sons. You don't have to think about studying. The best life for your two sons is also It’s just like being a slave. But as the old saying goes, as long as a person is alive, everything is easy to say. Maybe your grandchildren will be able to change from a slave to a good one. "
