第269章 借力(一更)
苏圩刚审完叶恒,也不知他是不是已经知道,他们没查到铁证能证明是他谋杀了叶铮,如今死活不认。

按照流程,若再查不到什么东西,这案子就要结了。

叶恒虽犯了好几条罪,却并不至死,再加上有人从中掺和,要保全这条命,也未必没有可能。

苏圩很是头疼,此时见到叶初棠,心里更添了几分歉疚,说话语气也放缓许多。

“叶二姑娘伤还没好,怎么来了这?”

叶初棠顿了顿:“我有要事,须得见二叔一面。”

苏圩眉头皱起。

“这……只怕是有些难。”

陛下格外看重叶恒的案子,他们不敢有丝毫懈怠,看守自然也更为严苛。

别说是叶初棠,就算是叶恒家里的直系血亲,来了也是不允许进去的。

叶初棠面露迟疑。

苏圩又问道:“你有什么事,非要现在见他?”

他实在是想不通叶初棠为什么会出现在这。

“若是有什么需要,本官倒能代为行之。”

安静片刻,叶初棠道:“苏大人有所不知,我堂弟叶明泽于昨晚突然病发,已经不治身亡。”

苏圩一惊:“你是说叶明泽?怎么会——”

这也太突然了!

“是。因那边目前尚未解封,行事诸多不便,但这么大的事儿,若不告知二叔,只怕以后留有遗憾。”

寥寥几句,便已经说明来意。

苏圩捋了捋胡子,思忖片刻,道:“难为你这个时候还记挂着这些……这样吧,我回去一趟,替伱转告叶恒。只不过……目前他仍然在押,怕是不能回去了。”

他回不回去,一点也不要紧。

反正只要这消息送到就可以了。

叶初棠颔首道谢:“那就麻烦您了。还劳烦您告知二叔,外面的事都无需担心,明泽的后事,我会代为处理,定尽心而为。”

苏圩点点头:“你伤势未愈,却要忙活这些,委实受累。”

叶初棠唇角轻轻弯了一下,眉眼温润清和。

“哪里,都是应该的。”

……

目送苏圩转身,叶初棠也收回视线,回了马车。

小厮见到她有些惊讶:“二小姐,您怎么这么快就回来了?”

莫非是……没能进去见到人?

想来也是,那可是天牢,岂是说进就能进的?
叶初棠下颌轻点:“没进去,不过遇到了大理寺苏大人,便请他代为转告了。”

苏大人?
那可就只有那位大理寺卿苏圩!从三品的朝廷大员!

小厮有些激动:“那可太巧了!都说那位苏大人十分严苛,没想到居然肯帮这个忙!”

叶初棠笑了笑。

苏圩这几日都在这几个地方奔波,从昨日他去定北侯府时候的焦虑神情来看,就知道案子还是没什么进展。

依他的性子,不会轻易放弃,今日必定还会亲自来审。

她当然知道她是进不去天牢的,她也没打算再去看叶恒那抵死不认的嘴脸。

只要来这门口转一圈,碰巧遇到苏圩,请他代为转达就行了。

叶恒便是有滔天的愤怒,也没处发。

嗯,只要知道他过得不好,她就放心了。

“回府。”

侯爷的掌心娇是朵黑心莲
Author:

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
