On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

Since the palace banquet, Su Kang has been appointed as the third-rank deputy privy envoy in the court.

It seems to be a high-ranking position with high salary, but in fact it is a sinecure with no real power.

Emperor Ming Qing's meaning was very clear. He wanted to keep Su Kang under his nose to wear down his evil spirit on the battlefield and to undermine his fighting spirit.

Since taking office in the court, Su Kang, who had always been accustomed to a leisurely life, actually disliked this kind of restrained life.

It would be fine if he was just restrained, but he also had to deal with different interpersonal relationships. He was a straightforward person, and whenever he faced people whose minds were as cunning as sieves, he felt exhausted.

After finishing my shift every day, I wish I could grow wings on my back and fly home.

That day, he finally managed to turn down a colleague's request to stay, and rushed home quickly after finishing his shift.

I kept comforting myself in my heart: It will be over soon, I will be free if I just hold on a little longer.

When I returned home, I heard the servant coming to tell me that the young lady had been waiting in the study for most of the day.

He did not dare to delay for even a moment and strode towards the study.

From a distance, I saw Su Sui'an standing in front of his study, looking up at the door of his study, not knowing what he was looking at.

Today she was wearing a light green gauze summer dress, and the flowing fabric made the girl's thin figure seem even more delicate.

However, this frail body seemed to contain infinite power, supporting their family in Luojing, which was surrounded by wolves...

For some reason, Su Kang's eyes felt a little hot.

The closer he got to Su Sui'an, the more his steps felt like they were filled with lead, and he couldn't move forward no matter what...

This was the first time that father and daughter were alone after their "quarrel", except for the time when Su Sui'an was infected with the heat.

He thought about how he had previously ordered the servants in the mansion not to tell anyone about what had recently happened in Ruoliyuan.

Su Kang was a little nervous.

He rubbed his hands in front of him, then put them back. As if feeling something was wrong, he rubbed them in front of him again.

It seems as if he wants to reduce his embarrassment when facing his daughter and his "fear" of her.

Su Sui'an was immediately amused by Su Kang's action.

"What bad thing did father do to make him feel so guilty?"

Su Kang paused in rubbing his hands.

He soon realized that Su Sui'an didn't seem to have the same hostility towards him as before.

He looked at his daughter in disbelief, and then slowly relaxed.

"No, it's just that An'er came to see father suddenly, and father was very happy."

His smile is simple and honest.

The smile of her loving father overlapped with the one Su Sui'an saw in her childhood, and for a moment, she was a little dazed.

Su Kang also loved his daughter from the bottom of his heart.

Otherwise, in his previous life, Su Sui'an would not have held his breath and lived on when Su Kang and his son were wrongly accused and their entire family was murdered, and he would not have been so persistent in clearing his family's grievances and avenging their murdered family members.

only...

Since when did her mentality begin to change?

Probably, seeing Su Kang returning safely from Yumen City.

She was happy at first, but soon, her joy was diluted by Su Kang's unreasonable obedience to Su Qishun...

For a moment, she even felt a little regretful for letting her father come back.

She could never accept the rift between father and daughter.

Therefore, she would take the initiative to speak harshly to Su Kang without knowing his true inner thoughts, fearing that Su Kang would say something irreparable and hurt the harmony between father and daughter...

A breeze carrying hot air blew over, and Su Sui'an truly felt the reality of the current environment.

She raised her eyes to meet Su Kang's loving gaze, and asked in a slow tone, "Father, I have something to tell you. Can I go into the study?"

Su Kang was flattered and ignored the awkwardness in Su Sui'an's words. "Of course you can."

"Father, what do you think about the people from Prince Yun's Mansion wanting to take action against us?"

After entering the study, Su Sui'an's direct questions were like a heavy hammer, hitting Su Kang dizzy.

He thought he had heard wrongly, and asked Su Sui'an again uncertainly, "An'er, what...what did you say?"

What did Prince Yun do?

Why did Prince Yun take action against the Su family?

That person didn’t say anything about this?

While asking Su Sui'an the question, Su Kang had already gone over what she had just said several times in his mind.

Su Sui'an did not rush to answer Su Kang's words, but lowered her eyes and spoke in a low voice, "My daughter crawled back from hell."

If other people heard such words, they would think that Su Sui'an was having a nightmare and talking nonsense.

But to Su Kang's ears, it was like a bolt of thunder out of nowhere.

From Fu Jingrong's explanation, he already knew about the tragedy of his daughter's previous life.

Compared to his tragic death at an early age, the people alive in the world are the ones who suffer the most. She has withstood all the abuses on behalf of the dead, and is also responsible for redressing the injustice of the dead...

Thinking of the suffering his daughter had endured in her previous life, this middle-aged man who had experienced countless life-and-death situations on the battlefield without blinking an eye, suddenly had tears in his eyes.

"An'er, it's Daddy's fault for being useless. He made you suffer."

He wanted to reach out and touch his daughter's head, but he remembered that his daughter was now grown up and had an engagement.

The outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air and was retracted.

"Dad knows that I did a lot of bad things in the past, and caused you and your daughter to suffer a lot. No matter what promises I make now, you won't be able to believe me so easily. But don't worry, Dad will use practical actions to prove to you that the current Su Kang is no longer the Su Kang who was easily deceived before."

Su Kang made a promise to Su Sui'an like he was swearing, and then he said with emotion, "After coming back this time, I have seen a lot of things clearly. I will also investigate the matter that Liang used despicable means to switch Su Qishun to the Changping Marquis Mansion to pretend to be the Changping Marquis's son. An'er, this is your father's business, so just leave it to your father. You are a little girl, so you should act like a little girl, happily prepare your wedding clothes, and marry a good husband."

Su Kang told Su Sui'an without any hesitation that he had also been reborn, which was something Su Sui'an had not expected.

Later, Su Kang took the initiative to ask her to prepare for her marriage, which was beyond Su Sui'an's expectations.

Fu Jingrong, who she had finally driven out of her mind, once again took over her mind and disturbed her thoughts.

Her mind was filled with the image of Fu Jingrong lying beside her bed and putting his arm to her mouth the day after the palace banquet.

Su Sui'an's face suddenly looked like a cooked shrimp. No matter how she pressed it, the heat on her face would not go away.

Su Sui'an's blushing face looked like she was shy in Su Kang's eyes.

Seeing that his daughter seemed to be even more "happy" about this arranged marriage than the last time, he finally let go of his worries.

I originally thought that the emperor's marriage arrangement at the palace banquet had no good intentions.

Unexpectedly, her daughter seemed to be quite satisfied with the fiancé who was granted marriage. This further confirmed the truth of what the prince of Dingbei said - Gu Xiuyan abandoned An'er for Zhao Qingwan, and he and An'er fell in love with each other later...

No matter what, as long as his daughter is happy, he can work with his future son-in-law, the Prince of Dingbei, with peace of mind.

Su Sui'an didn't know what Su Kang was thinking.

Under Su Kang's comforting gaze, he naturally brought the topic back to Prince Yun.

She told Su Kang everything about how Prince Yun had taken advantage of the second branch of the Su family in her previous life.

The only difference was that the fact that Ji Lanshuang lost her innocence and died in Prince Yun's bed was changed to Ji Lanshuang refused to surrender and died by hitting a pillar.

Su Sui'an understands the bad habits of men.

Even if that man was his biological father, she would not dare to gamble her biological mother's future on her father's conscience.

"In the previous life, Prince Yun coveted my mother. Although I don't know how Prince Yun met my mother, his ill intentions are obvious."

Su Kang pondered and said, "Could it be a palace banquet?"

"No." Without thinking, Su Sui'an denied Su Kang's guess.

During the palace banquet, there were many seats for men and women, and there were many people. Prince Yun had always been very picky because his daughter was a concubine of the current dynasty. In addition, he had many beautiful concubines in his mansion, so he simply didn't bother to look at the seats for the women.

At least, before Su Sui'an left the table, he did not notice that Prince Yun's eyes fell on his mother.

Later, after Su Sui'an came to her senses, she heard from Fu Jingrong that not long after she left her seat, Prince Yun also left when the emperor issued an edict to grant them a marriage, which happened to be the time when her mother was bullied because of her absence.
