The three of them arrived at Dali Temple. As soon as Ding Yan heard that Su Yu had brought his brother here, he quickly invited them in.
"Master Ding."
"Miss Su, why are you here today?"
"Something happened at home, and I would like to ask Mr. Ding to help investigate. This is my eldest brother Su Sheng, and this is Bai Yan, the eldest young master of the Bai Mansion."
"Master Ding."
The two of them met with Ding Yan. Ding Yan was obviously not as polite to them as he was to Su Yu, but neither of them had the time to pay attention to these details now.
"I suspect that Bai Yan is a child of the Su family, and my eldest brother Su Sheng is a child of the Bai family. I also want to ask Mr. Ding to help investigate this case."
Su Yu thought that if she checked by herself, it would be difficult to get in touch with Mrs. Bai, because Mrs. Bai had been avoiding her. If someone from Dali Temple intervened to investigate, it would be much faster than her own investigation. She couldn't wait for that. For a long time, she believed that her parents could not wait and wanted to know the final truth as soon as possible.
Ding Yan obviously didn't expect that the Su Bai family would be involved in this way. In his opinion, there would be no intersection between the two families. He knew about the Bai family. Although it was not the richest man in Kyoto City, it was still ranked among the top ten. As far as he knew about the Su family, the life of the Su family was not easy when Miss Su was very young. When I grew up, I started a small business and my family earned some money before sending my eldest son to study.
"Miss Su, you might as well tell me why you have such suspicion."
It was a long story. Su Yu told everything she knew, including what her father said about her mother's delivery, and that she was poisoned when she was four years old. In addition, Bai Yan heard the conversation between the master and the servant. , and Nanny Huang, who is beside the old lady, has an unusual attitude towards her eldest brother.
After listening to what Su Yu said, Ding Yan was sure that these two people had definitely been replaced, but everything must be done with evidence.
"I have taken over this case. Don't worry, Miss Su. I will help you find out as soon as possible. I will let you know when the results are available."
"There is Lord Lauding."
After that, the three of them left Dali Temple.
"Mr. Bai, you'd better go back now and do whatever you normally do. Brother, you should go back too. Don't think too much about anything else. Just take care of your studies."
Su Sheng responded and went back. Bai Yan was about to leave when Su Yu stopped him.
"Have you ever thought that if you were not a child of the Bai family, everything you have now may be gone by then."
"I know, but I don't regret it. With my ability, the money I will earn in the future will not be less than what the Bai family earns now."
What Bai Yan didn't say was how he could regret it. Growing up, the Bai family was like a big mountain weighing on him. His birth was doomed to his misfortune. His father was not happy with him and felt that as soon as he was born He caused great trouble to the family. Although he was later solved by the clan, his father still regarded him as unlucky and never gave him a good look since he was a child.
He grew up next to his mother-in-law and never felt a trace of maternal love. Later, when he saw his mother being bullied by his father and aunts, he stood up to protect his mother at a very young age. From that time on, his mother's attitude towards him also changed. It was much better than when he was a child. Later, in order to make his mother and sister's life in the house easier, he worked desperately and never dared to slack off. How many times had he envied others. If he could be born in an ordinary family, I believe his life would be better than now. Now that the life he had dreamed of before was placed in front of him, how could he regret it.
Su Yu is probably the most sober one in the whole thing. She came here a few years ago and has feelings for her family, but sometimes, she can think about problems as a bystander.
When Su Yu returned home and just entered the courtyard, he saw the couple looking at each other eagerly, looking like they wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. Su Yu felt heartbroken when he saw what they did wrong.
"Father, mother, I have asked Mr. Ding for help. I believe it will not take long before the matter is found out. You don't have to worry."
After hearing Su Yu's words, the two of them didn't know whether to be worried or relieved. In short, they felt uneasy. In order not to let themselves think too much, the husband and wife have no time to idle in their work.
"Girl, what's going on, Master and Madam?"
Wu couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw the two of them like this.
"It's okay, let them do whatever they want."
I added silently in my heart, it's better than just sitting around and thinking about it.
As soon as Su Yu and the others left, Ding Yan asked people to check on the old lady of the Bai Mansion. As expected, a lot of useful information was found. Two days later, he took the old lady Bai and the maids in the yard with him. Arrive at Dali Temple.
On the day when the people from Dali Temple went there, Bai Yan happened not to be at the house. In fact, it was the minister of Dali Temple who sent him the news, telling him not to stay at the house today.
When the people from Dali Temple came to the door, the servants of the Bai Mansion were completely panicked. Since the eldest young master was not there yet, they did not dare to stop the people from Dali Temple. They could only watch the old lady and everyone in the yard. He was taken away, and when Bai Yan came back and heard about it, he only said that he would find a way to let the servants in the mansion do whatever they wanted.
The old lady Bai and Nanny Huang who were brought to Dali Temple did not have such a good life. They were locked directly in a secret cell. The secret cell was underground without sunlight all year round. Only a few ventilation windows were left on the surface. The environment inside was unimaginable. It turns out that the turbid air was mixed with a rotten smell, mixed with the smell of feces and urine. This made the always pampered Mrs. Bai suffer a serious crime in her life. She vomited so hard as soon as she was locked in that she almost lost her bile. Spit it out.
After the people were imprisoned, the guards ignored the two of them and allowed Nanny Huang to yell at them about what they had done, but no one paid any attention to them.
"Don't worry, madam. The eldest young master has always been filial. If he knew that you were caught by the people from Dali Temple, he would definitely find a way to rescue you."
Aunt Huang's words put Mrs. Bai's heart at ease. Bai Yan is indeed very filial to her. If you knew she had been caught, you would definitely find a way to rescue her.
But after three days in the secret prison of Dali Temple, both the master and the servant were no longer calm. The food in the secret prison was a black steamed bun and a bowl of vegetable soup with a strange smell. No more. On the first day, neither the master nor the servant ate. How could they eat this food? But after being hungry from one day to the next, they were no longer hungry. With Wo Wo’s hair down, each of them ate more eagerly than the other. It was a normal rule. Etiquette was even thrown aside. Who cares about such trivial matters in the face of life and death.
After the two were imprisoned for five days, they were finally brought to trial individually by people from Dali Temple.
