076: I Worked All Night and Fed Everything to the Dog

In her previous life, she didn't go out often, and many things were either told to her by her mother and Nanny She, or heard from the maids in her courtyard.
She remembered that once a maid mentioned an incident, saying that a concubine Wu in the Dongli Palace was poisoned to death. When Wu died, it was said that she died of illness, but not long after that, Wu's brother Wu Shun kidnapped the Princess of Dongli. Later, everyone knew that Wu did not die of illness, but was poisoned.
She didn't remember it very clearly, because this incident had nothing to do with her. She just heard it once. Now she thinks about it seriously. She only vaguely remembers that Wu Shun seriously injured the Princess of Dongli. Even if it was for revenge for his sister, he also committed a crime. It seems that he was beheaded in the end. After this incident, the Princess of Dongli was not as healthy as before and became a medicine jar.
Look, many things in this world are unfair.
People of low status want revenge, regardless of success or failure. If they are charged with murdering a noble, they will have to sacrifice their own life even if they avenge their sister.
Besides, she didn't take revenge, because the mastermind behind the scenes was not the Princess of Dongli.
If Su Xinyi had grown up in the Duke's Mansion, she would definitely support the court's law of protecting the nobles, but she didn't.
She grew up among the people and knew how difficult life was for the people.
So now when she looked at Wu Shun, she wanted to save his life.
Are the lives of ordinary people no longer lives?
Isn't it good to be alive?
Su Xinyi thought about it. She had no official position and no deterrent power or convincing ability, so she looked at her brother and said, "Brother, I know this person."
Su Yi was stunned, "You know?"
Su Xinyi nodded, "Didn't a concubine in Dongli Palace die of illness a few days ago? This person is the brother of that concubine Wu."
"How do you know?"
"You forgot that I saw Wu once when I fell into the water in Dongli Palace. She looked very similar to her brother. I saw it at a glance." Su Xinyi certainly had never seen Wu, but it was no problem to convince her brother at this time. After all, her brother didn't know whether she had seen him or not.
Thinking of his sister falling into the water, Su Yi had no good impression of Dongli Palace, especially when he knew that the person being held hostage was Princess Dongli, he felt that he had been busy all night and had fed the dogs.
Why save such a person? Wouldn't it be sweet to sleep at night?
But he couldn't say such things in front of his sister, lest he teach her bad things. He suppressed the roll of his eyes in his heart, looked at his sister and said, "Tell me what happened."
Time was urgent, Su Xinyi said briefly, "Wu didn't die of illness, the cause of death was suspicious, Wu Shun is like this now, maybe he really found something."
Su Yi listened to his sister's words and looked serious, "You know all this?"
"Of course, there are no secrets in our backyard. Isn't it fun for everyone to talk about the gossips of the Dong family and the Li family?" Su Xinyi was talking nonsense, but her serious expression was still very convincing to Su Yi, who didn't know much about the affairs of the backyard.
"Brother, don't worry about this for now. I'm telling you that I suspect Wu Shun was used by someone. If he really hurt Princess Dongli, he would not be able to survive. His sister died unjustly. If he lost his life, the brother and sister would be miserable. Brother, can we help him?"
Su Yi was a kind man. He nodded when he heard his sister say this. "How can we help? We don't have evidence, and we can't convince Wu Shun to release him?"
"I have a way." Su Xinyi stood on tiptoe and whispered in her brother's ear.
Su Yi's face became particularly wonderful after hearing this. He glanced at his sister with an inexplicable look, and felt a chill on his back. His sister not only learned hunting in the countryside, but also learned all kinds of messes.
