Chapter 116 The Rough Hands
Many people were implicated in this case. Although the Su family was spared, two families of officials who had intersects with the Su family were on the list. The two couples that Su Nu once affectionately called uncle and aunt when he was a child became a family overnight.
Four corpses. Su Nu was thirteen years old at the time. He had already experienced the death of his biological mother, but he was still very impressed by this incident.
"How could it be him?"
She really didn't expect it, and she was not mentally prepared at all. Aji's biological father was actually the disciple of the traitor?
"This is the file Dou Yin got back from the Ministry of Officials. Please read it carefully."
Han Mo took a stack of documents from the side and pushed it towards Su Nu opposite.
Su Nu quickly picked it up and opened it. First, her eyes locked on the official's seal. After making sure it was correct, she looked down.
"Your guess is correct. Zhou Chengli was originally from the capital. He was awarded Jinshi at the age of twenty-one, and then joined the Six Ministries to observe government. After three years, he went to Jinling Prefecture to serve as Tongzhi.
"Married to the He family. The He family made their fortune through business, and later some of their children became officials through the imperial examination. The family was rich, but their official positions were not high.
"The He family respected this talented son-in-law very much, and often provided him with money to supplement him. The Zhou family was also poor. Legend has it that they owned thousands of hectares of fertile land and several shops.
"But just after Zhou Chengli went south to take up an official position, Zhou and He's family moved out of the capital one after another, and now they can't even find out where they are going."
After Han Mo finished speaking, Su Nuo had already finished reading this article.
She took a deep breath, her shoulders dropped, but she held the case file tightly with both hands.
"Aji said that his father was suspended two years ago, which is exactly the right time. It seems that Zhou Chengli was also implicated in Xue Rong's case, and even Jinling, who was thousands of miles away, did not avoid it.
"When I saw those letters, I thought he would be a highly respected scholar in the court. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a treacherous minister who brought trouble to the court."
Since Xue Rongfu was convicted, he has been despised by both the government and the public. As long as Su Nu thinks that he almost caused the stable court to be overthrown, he can't think highly of him at all.
"So the attitude of the couple on Wednesday towards Aji seems to be well-founded. Zhou Chengli was implicated to the point of dismissing his official position, and Mrs. Zhou came to Beijing with her child. How can people as mean as them be kind to Aji?"
"But why did Mrs. Zhou go to the capital?" Su Nu wondered, "Obviously there is no one they can rely on in the capital, and all their former teachers and friends must have ignored them.
"As long as Mrs. Zhou gives them some money, they will certainly take in people as short-sighted as Mr. and Mrs. Zhou. But is it possible that they have lived in Jinling for so many years and there is no one more reliable than Mr. and Mrs. Zhou?
"I can explain that the reason why the Zhou He family moved out of the capital is that Zhou Chengli helped Xue Rong do bad things, so he left early. But why didn't Mrs. Zhou take her daughter to find them when this happened?"
Han Mo pinched his chin: "At present, it seems that Zhou Chengli's wife came to Beijing for other purposes, because she left Aji to Zhou and his wife, and then left without saying goodbye. Apart from the fact that she had other things to do, there was no
Way to explain."
Su Nu did not comment.
At first, she just kept Aji in Su's house just to stop Su Qi from running away, but she didn't expect that she would still have such a big connection with her.
Xue Rong is dead, and his colleagues should be killed and demoted. Even Zhou Chengli did not escape the emperor's liquidation, but after all, he had already been punished for his crimes.
Even if Aji is his daughter, there is nothing sensitive about her, but Su Nu's heart is still heavy.
Her father is helping others to do evil, how will he treat her in the future?
Thinking of this, she looked to the opposite side: "Can you find the verdict against Zhou Chengli?"
"This is hard to find." Han Mo leaned back in his chair, "But if Guishou can agree to my proposal and we all work together to investigate the case, then no matter how hard it is to find, I will have to find it for you.
"
Su Nu suddenly smiled when he heard this.
She turned to look at the branches outside the window. The green buds on the branches had sprouted young leaves.
"Can."
She nodded: "Let me think about it."
"How long do you want?"
Su Nu calmed down and said for a moment: "I will go to Shuntian Mansion tomorrow to give you a definite reply."
Although she still had reservations about this notorious little King of Hell, she had to say that the conditions he offered were always tempting and she could give it a try.
"But I want to talk ugly things with Capt. Han first. I agree to Capt. Han's proposal, and the time is limited to until my mother's case comes to light. And the time I gave myself is only one year, so Capt. Han can
If you can't solve Yuan Qing's case within this year, it depends on your ability."
Han Mo was silent for a moment: "If you have any other conditions, feel free to ask for them. For example, if you want to make money outside by taking orders and making locks, I can cover you. I can even give you a salary."
The little girl’s movie is being pushed and put off, isn’t it because she is greedy for money! It’s not like he can’t afford it.
"That's good." Su Nu said slowly.
Han Mo took a deep breath: "Then I'll wait for your reply tomorrow." After a pause, he continued: "But you'd better agree to me. The conditions are easy to negotiate."
Although he didn't know her very well, since he knew that she wanted to find out the cause of his mother's death, he had a way to make an attractive enough offer.
Su Nu picked up the file: "Can you give me this?"
"This is the archives of the Ministry of Personnel and needs to be returned. You can make a copy if you want."
After saying that, he waved towards the door. Soon after, Yang You appeared out of nowhere and placed a set of the Four Treasures of the Study on the table between them.
Su Nu then wrote and copied it.
Han Mo was not good at dancing, writing, and writing, so he couldn't help with this task. The morning sun shone through the window, climbed onto the desk in front of him, and then slowly moved to the hand holding the pen opposite. Under the golden light, the white
His skin turned a very light pink.
...Who would have thought? Looking at a hand with such slender fingers, the skin on the palm is indeed so rough, even calloused!
God, with that touch that night, he really touched the roughest pair of women's hands in his life! How could there be such a woman who doesn't care about image? Ah, no, in his eyes, he is not a woman at all.
