Chen Qingzhu did have this plan.

She is the deity who saves the people from suffering. How could she not punish a few corrupt officials after entering the court?

Huiyun wanted to target the Su family, and she would not object as long as it did not frame loyal and honest people.

"Well, you can arrange this matter."

The Imperial Master's Mansion has people, soldiers, and influence, and Huiyun is also not lacking in knowledge in this area.

It would be nice to practice on the Su family.

"Yes!"

With the permission from the abbot, Huiyun gladly accepted the order.

The next day, he selected some trustworthy people in the Imperial Master's Mansion to investigate the illegal activities of the Su family over the years. He prepared to find the victims in person in the name of the Imperial Master's Mansion and seek justice for them.

The Su family naturally didn't know Huiyun's plan.

The next afternoon, as soon as Su Jijiu got off work, he went straight to the residence of the Grand National Master.

When he got off the carriage, he saw that there were already quite a few carriages parked outside the Imperial Master's Mansion.

His wife, Youshi, was wandering outside with a worried look on her face. When she saw him coming, she began to wipe away her tears and looked at him with resentment, saying:

"Master, I have already informed everyone, Jingyao refuses to see me."

"She doesn't even give face to you as a father, so how can she care about me as a stepmother?"

Su Jijiu's face suddenly darkened.

However, looking at this majestic Imperial Master's Mansion and the carriages and horses lined up waiting to deliver gifts, he suppressed his anger deep in his heart.

Su Jijiu walked to the door himself and said to the guards of the Imperial Master's Mansion:

"I am Su Changshi's biological father. Please inform Su Changshi that there was some misunderstanding the day before yesterday. I am here to take her home in person today."

The guard took the silver and went inside to report.

After waiting for about a moment, the eldest daughter, dressed in a green official robe, walked to the outside of the mansion surrounded by several servants.

The dignitaries who were waiting to send gifts or visiting cards suddenly rushed forward.

"Su Changshi!"

"Su Changshi!"

She glanced at everyone calmly and confidently, and said in a voice with great aura:

"Everyone, I have already announced to the public that the Divine Master is devoted to cultivation and will not see any outside visitors."

Someone hurriedly said:

"It doesn't matter if we can't see the God. We just heard that the Imperial Master moved into a new residence, so we came to give him a gift to express our gratitude! Please ask Su Changshi to pass it on for us!"

Huiyun said:

"The God does not accept worldly gifts."

Someone who was well-informed quickly explained:

"Don't worry, Chief Secretary. We know the rules. This is not a common ritual. The offerings are prepared according to the number of the five elements!"

Upon hearing this, Huiyun smiled gently at the man:

"So you are a believer in the God. Why not wait until the shrine is completed and then go there to worship according to the rules."

Everyone present was a smart person. They could understand the elegant meaning of the music and knew that the gifts in their hands could only be given away as offerings the next day.

However, this did not prevent them from showing goodwill to Su Changshi, who was deeply trusted by the God.

Many people took out some of the gifts and said they would give them to Su Changshi as a gift.

Huiyun spoke again:

"I appreciate your kindness, but the God has already stipulated that disciples like us cannot accept gifts in private. Please go back as soon as possible."

So everyone had to give up temporarily.

After all, people have said that, and giving gifts in public is not sensible.

If you want to please Su Changshi, you have to give him gifts secretly in the future.

"Please everyone make way!"

Su Jijiu quickly pulled his wife forward.

When everyone saw that it was him, they all made way for him.

Everyone also wanted to see with their own eyes what Su Changshi’s attitude was towards her father.

If the father and daughter can reconcile, then the Su Mansion will also be a way to please Su Changshi in the future.

Su Jijiu finally squeezed to the front.

He tried to calm down and said to Huiyun:

"Ayao, I misunderstood you the other day, and now I'm here to take you home. You may be working in the Imperial Master's Mansion, but you haven't been home for many years, so you should go home and visit."

"Your yard is still reserved for you by your father and mother!"

Of course it is impossible to stay.

But he had already urgently asked Youshi to vacate the courtyard where Jingyao used to live yesterday.

Huiyun looked at him with a half-smile and said:

"Su Jijiu, I explained to you the day before yesterday that although I have the same surname as you, I am not your daughter. Why are you still pestering me today?"

She admitted that she chose this secular surname on purpose.

Deliberately let him see hope, so that he would fall into the underworld full of hope.

Everyone watched in silence.

The word "entanglement" immediately hurt Su Jijiu's fragile self-esteem, making his face full of embarrassment.

Mrs. Su Youshi stepped forward immediately upon seeing this and rebuked in a gentle tone:

"Yao'er, are you still blaming your father? Your father didn't continue to look for you because of the family's reputation. You have always been sensible. How can you keep speaking coldly to your father just because of such a small matter?"

Huiyun clicked her tongue twice and looked at her sarcastically:

"People say that my stepmother is sweet-mouthed but has a sharp heart. I didn't believe it at first, but now I have seen it with my own eyes. Madam Su, is she trying to persuade the Yao'er you mentioned to go home, or is she trying to make her more resentful?"

Everyone present cast questioning glances at Madam Su.

After all, no one is stupid. Mrs. Su's words were awkward to begin with and could not stand scrutiny.

Yu Shi was a little panicked, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her face showed a look of grievance as if she had been wronged:

"Yao'er, I'm trying to get you to reconcile with your father out of kindness, how could you be so malicious in speculating about me!"

Huiyun sneered and looked at Su Jijiu coldly:

"Su Jijiu, I'll say it again, I'm not your daughter. Your daughter was abducted by kidnappers sent by your stepmother and sold to a dirty place. She died a long time ago."

"Don't try to make random connections again!"

Everyone in the audience was shocked.

I didn't expect Huiyun to suddenly reveal such a secret.

Then, everyone's eyes fell on Youshi.

Yu's hands were already shaking in her sleeves, but she still tried to remain calm and said:

"Yao'er, you lost your mother when you were born. I have always raised you as my own daughter. How could I possibly harm you? It's fine if you don't want to honor me, but how can you lie and accuse someone of such a vicious crime!"

Huiyun chuckled:

"As far as I know, the eldest daughter of the Su family has always been raised by Madam Su."

"As for why you would harm her, it was only to snatch her marriage and the dowry left by her mother."

The tone of these words was indifferent, as if they were talking about someone else's family.

Su Jijiu was originally in extreme shock and anger.

I feel that the eldest daughter should never tell others in public that she was sold into such a dirty place.

Now, he couldn't help but look at Youshi with suspicion.

He was the only one among the people present who knew that after her eldest daughter disappeared, the lady really wanted to marry her second daughter to the Xiao family, but the Xiao family did not agree, so the plan did not work out.

Moreover, after the old lady passed away, it was indeed Youshi who was in charge of his original wife's dowry.
