490. Chapter 490 The Cruel Truth
Qinhua is a person who has a very clear view of things. On the surface, all this is the kindness of Nangong Ao, but if Ye Wange had not mediated it, Nangong Ao might not have given this face.
Ye Wange said to Qin Hua, "Ding Wendao is coming soon. Those people involved in your case must be as anxious as ants on a hot pan. They will all kill Ding Wendao by any means."
Qinhua also understood the danger, but she could not help at all.
The safety of Qinhua and Dingmu is all protected by Nangong Ao and Ye Wangecai. How can we protect Ding Wendao's safety now?
"Your Majesty, when will you plan to try this case?" Qin Hua asked Ye Wange.
Ye Wange saw Nangong Ao’s meaning, it was impossible to judge today, and he would have to be tomorrow at the earliest, so he said, “The emperor has not set a specific date, it is probably tomorrow!”
When he heard Ye Wange say that it is very likely that the trial will be tomorrow, Qin Hua felt a little nervous and relaxed, and the time schedule was very tight. In such a short time, those who wanted to murder Ding Wendao had very little chance of success.
Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of Ding Wendao, as if Ding Wendao was a universal plaster. As soon as he arrived, all problems would be solved.
Gao Dejiang thought that Ding Wendao would be detained first when he arrived, so he waited in the detention area.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Ding Wendao arrived, he was taken to Nangong Ao.
Tian Weicheng replied to Nangong Ao, "Your Majesty, I have brought Ding Wendao."
When Nangong Ao heard that Tian Weicheng brought Ding Wendao, "Bring someone up, I want to see him."
"Yes." Tian Weicheng asked someone to bring Ding Wendao up.
Ding Wendao was old, but he was in good spirits. After seeing Nangong Ao, he immediately saluted, "The grass-roots Ding Wendao has met the emperor."
Nangong Ao looked at Ding Wendao and said, "Please get up quickly, Lord Ding."
Ding Wendao stood up, Nangong Ao waved his hand and asked the servants to retreat, "Mr. Ding, I invite you to come because I want to ask about the two cases of Su Qin, whom Lord Ding handled back then."
Ding Wendao was escorted along the way, and he was speculating about the purpose of these people arresting him. He thought it was the Empress Dowager's people who arrested him, but he didn't expect it to be Nangong Ao, and he didn't expect it to be the case of Su Qin and the other families.
The cases of Su Qin and the two families made Ding Wendao feel very embarrassed. "The cases of the two families of Emperor and Su Qin are recorded in the case of that year."
When Nangong Ao heard this, he looked at Ding Wendao and smiled, "Mr. Ding, if I believe what is recorded in the Case Sect, I would not have been so far away and asked Lord Ding to come here."
Although Ding Wendao is cunning, he is now being captured by Nangong Ao. Nangong Ao firmly grasps Ding Wendao in the palm of his hand and cannot escape from Nangong Ao's Wujingshan.
"Your Majesty, the case sect is all the truth." Ding Wendao said.
When Nangong Ao heard this, he gave Tian Weicheng a wink. Tian Weicheng immediately said, "Mr. Ding and Su Qin's cases have new evidence, and the new evidence proves that the Qin family is innocent."
When Ding Wendao heard that there was new evidence, he immediately said, "With new evidence, the emperor can order a new investigation."
When he heard these high-sounding words from Ding Wendao, let alone Nangong Ao was impatient, even Tian Weicheng was impatient.
"Mr. Ding, you have not been scared by those thrilling scenes you have encountered along the way, right?" Tian Weicheng asked.
Ding Wendao looked at Tian Weicheng and replied, "The grass-roots are getting old bones. Those who are about to enter the coffin are not afraid of those swords and guns."
Ding Wendao means that he is old and is not afraid of death or threats.
Tian Weicheng smiled, "Mr. Ding, although he is in his twilight years, he is getting stronger and stronger. It is no problem to see his great-grandson."
When Ding Wendao heard Tian Weicheng's words, his expression flashed with nervousness.
Tian Weicheng continued, "Emperor, for the safety of Lord Ding's family, he sent a large number of people to guard it. Lord Ding's heart is put in his stomach."
Tian Wei’s sincere words made Ding Wendao’s heart go up and down.
Seeing that Ding Wendao's defense was shaken, Nangong Ao immediately asked, "Mr. Ding, I asked you to come. I must re-examine the cases of Su Qin and the two families."
Nangong Ao means, Lord Ding, whether you are worthy of cooperation or not, the case must be investigated. If you don’t cooperate, Lord Ding is waiting for a suspicion. If you cooperate, you will consider taking a lighter handling.
Ding Wendao looked at Nangong Ao, then looked at Tian Weicheng, and said in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, can you speak one step closer?"
When Nangong Ao heard Ding Wendao's words, he knew that Ding Wendao wanted Tian Weicheng to hide.
Tian Weicheng immediately withdrew automatically, without letting Nangong Ao speak.
When there were only two people in the house, Nangong Ao and Ding Wendao said, "Now Lord Ding can say it!"
Ding Wendao looked at Nangong Ao and said, "Your Majesty, the Su Qin family was not unfair. Shen Liang did those illegal activities, and he was in partnership with Su Qin's family. However, after making a profit, Shen Liang did not share the money with Su Qin's family, but instead divided the money with Gu Erxi. Later, in order to escape, Shen Liang gave all the money to Su Qin's family, so the Su Qin's family became an indescribable scapegoat."
When Nangong Ao heard Ding Wendao's words, he completely understood what happened back then.
At that time, Su, Qin and the two of them, together with Shen Liang and Gu Erxi, engaged in illegal activities to make money. After the money was collected, Shen Liang and Gu Erxi swallowed the dirty money from Su Qin and the two families. Later, after the incident, Shen Liang and Gu Erxi distributed the dirty money to Su Qin and the two families in order to escape, so Su Qin and the two families were caught by both of them and could not deny it.
Nangong Ao looked at Ding Wendao and asked, "Why didn't Lord Su and Lord Qin provide Shen Liang and Gu Erxi to provide him?"
Ding Wendao replied, "This grass man doesn't know."
Hearing Ding Wendao's answer, Nangong Ao frowned unhappily, not believing that Ding Wendao was not clear.
"Mr. Ding, I can speak everything and say everything. I feel very unhappy when I hear you halfway." Nangong Ao said.
Ding Wendao looked at the angry Nangong Ao and said, "Emperor, Caomin knows so much, and he has not concealed it."
"Mr. Ding, you must understand that this case was handled by you. Now it has become an unjust case. Are you responsible?" Nangong Ao threatened.
Ding Wendao heard Nangong Ao's threat and replied, "Caomin really didn't hide it. Even if the emperor cuts down Caomin's head, Caomin can't do anything."
Nangong Ao looked at Ding Wendao and asked, "What does the Empress Dowager have to do with this matter?"
Although Nangong Ao, who was injured, stayed in the house to recuperate, he never relaxed for a moment and investigated these things.
When Ding Wendao heard Nangong Ao mention the Empress Dowager, he was stunned for a moment. The Empress Dowager's secret could not be told even if he was beaten to death. If he told him, his old bone would really go to see the King of Hell.
Seeing that Ding Wendao refused to say anything, Nangong Ao stood up from the chair and walked towards Ding Wendao.
Nangong Ao, who was tall and strong, walked to Ding Wendao and gave Ding Wendao an invisible sense of oppression. "Mr. Ding, I asked you, I must have known the truth of the matter, but I just wanted to confirm it."
Ding Wendao glanced at Nangong Ao, looking very panicked and looked embarrassed.
"Tell me!" Nangong Ao asked in a deep voice.
"I..." Ding Wendao opened his mouth, his tongue knotted and wanted to say something but he was interrupted by Nangong Ao before he could speak.
"Is this the Empress Dowager instructed you to do this?" Nangong Ao asked.
Ding Wendao looked at the serious Nangong Ao, and under the majesty of Nangong Ao, he said truthfully, "Yes."
Ding Wendao spoke, and it would be difficult to stop.
"At that time, the Empress Dowager issued a secret order to kill the Su family and pluck the Su family without leaving a single living thing," Ding Wendao said.
It was because of the order of the Empress Dowager that the same case occurred that year. The Su family was killed by the whole family, but the Qin family was only treated with different exiles.
When Nangong Ao heard this, he pursed his lips and thought about it carefully for a while, and asked, "Is it because of Su Xinwei?"
Nangong Ao also knew that Su Xinwei was favored by the previous emperor. Later, after the Su Qin family broke out, Su Xinwei was naturally implicated.
"Yes." Ding Wendao sighed, remembering that the battle in the harem was even more intense and tragic than between court officials.
"Although Su Xinwei was favored, she was not enthroned. Why did the Empress Dowager deal with her?" Nangong Ao didn't understand why the Empress Dowager dealt with a ignorant embroidered woman.
Ding Wendao sighed and said, "Su Xinwei was pregnant with the dragon heir back then, and the emperor wanted to enthrone Su Xinwei. It happened that Master Yimi calculated that Su Xinwei was a blockade to block the Empress Dowager's good fortune, so the Empress Dowager ordered the Su family to be raided."
The Empress Dowager was so frugal that the Empress Dowager had to dominate the situation in the harem, and the family was the only one who could dominate it. However, Su Xinwei was favored by the late emperor at that time. Master Yimi calculated that Su Xinwei was the nemesis of the Empress Dowager.
When the Empress Dowager heard that Su Xinwei was her nemesis, how could she sit idly by? She tried every means to get rid of Su Xinwei. The incident happened to be that Su Qin's two families had a chance, which gave the Empress Dowager the opportunity.
"It is said that Su Xinwei is not dead, is this true?" Nangong Ao asked.
"This grass man really doesn't know that after handling this case, I retired and returned home." Ding Wendao said.
Ding Wendao, who knew the inside story back then, was afraid that the Empress Dowager and others would kill him to silence him, so he retired and returned home after the case ended.
Nangong Ao's eyes were lowered, and he thought for a while and asked, "Is there anything else except Su Xinwei's affairs?"
Ding Wendao quickly replied, "No."
Nangong Ao looked at Ding Wendao's panic and asked, "What's going on with the Sixth Princess?"
Ding Wendao's heart, which had just relaxed, immediately hung up and secretly glanced at Nangong Ao.
Nangong Ao smiled at Ding Wen and said, "Mr. Ding insisted that I press you step by step, so you are willing to say it?"
