The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

Su Rou looked at the female official with amusement, "Since it was done, then tomorrow I will have to ask the emperor to make the decision for me."

As for what the emperor would say to the Minister of Justice, that was none of her business.

Su Rou asked again, "Should I take it off for you to see?"

The female official was so frightened that she quickly stepped back, bowed and apologized to Su Rou, "Miss Su, it was the Ministry of Justice who offended."

Su Rou waved her hand. "Okay, now that my hair is proven to be dry, can I report this to the Minister of Justice? I'm innocent."

The female officer nodded, "Yes."

Su Rou waved her hand and said, "Go back and report."

After the female official left, Su Rou quickly stood up and took out the carbon block hidden in her shoes.

hiss……

it hurts.

The socks on her feet were burnt, but fortunately the temperature did not ignite the soles of her feet.

When she went to the gate of the general's mansion just now, she was holding an umbrella. If they found that her hair was wet, she would definitely not be able to explain it.

Fortunately, when she came back, she saw the charcoal basin that the maid had placed in the corner to dehumidify the room. She held it over her head and fumigated her hair slightly, and then it dried.

Su Wan poked his head out of the doorway. "Arou, are you ready? Can Dad come in?"

Su Rou simply tied up her hair and said, "Dad, I'm fine. Come in."

Su Wan said, "The Minister of Justice came today because of the execution ground. The Ministry of Justice was short of manpower and came to borrow some people from my father. It's a good thing that Arou didn't go to the execution ground."

The location and time of the execution ground are absolutely secret, and only a few people in the court know about it.

The last time Su Rou asked, Su Wan told her everything without any reservation.

It was during this robbing of the execution ground that Su Rou realized that the Ministry of Justice was not as simple as it seemed.

Su Rou said, "Father, the people killed by the Ministry of Justice must be those who have committed heinous crimes, right? Why would anyone be willing to risk their lives to save such people?"

Su Wan said, "This..."

Look, even General Su, who is loyal to the Northern Emperor, can't explain it clearly.

Su Rou guessed that her father probably already had an idea in his mind, but he was always unwilling to believe it.

Su Rou asked again, "Father, if one day you discover that the emperor you serve is not worth your foolish efforts, will you still be like this?"

Su Rou's words were meant to test Su Wan.

Su Wan leaned over and touched her head, "Arou, from now on you can only say this in front of me, and never let others hear it."

Although Su Wan said this, Su Rou felt that he must have heard it.

Su Wan said, "Arou, go to bed early."

"Boom" a flash of lightning exploded in the sky. Su Rou leaned against the window frame, watching the rain in the yard splashing on the ground, thinking about something in her heart.

She was afraid she wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.

It was dawn, but the sky was still gray.

Su Rou took out yesterday's clothes and mask and put them in the yard to dry. She asked someone to prepare a horse and rode out.

There were very few civilians to be seen in the streets and alleys. There was an imperial guard every three steps and an army soldier every five steps.

What happened yesterday was quite a big deal, and they were actually so defensive.

Su Rou rode her horse to the city gate, but was stopped by soldiers.

"From now on, you will need to be searched when leaving the city. Please cooperate, young lady."

"Pa!" A slap landed on the soldier's head. Liu Bai cursed, "You bastard! You didn't even recognize the young lady and search her body. If the general finds out, how many heads will you have left for him to chop off?!"

Su Rou smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, don't scold him. He is just following the rules."

Liu Bai looked at her and said, "It's been a rough few days. Why did Ah Rou go out of town alone?"

Su Rou said, "The day of the martial arts examination is approaching, so I want to go out of the city and practice riding and archery on my own."

Liu Bai said, "Why don't you go to the training ground?"

Su Rou said, "As you know, due to some things, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I have had some unpleasantness. He has recently been following my father in martial arts training, so it's better for me to stay away from him."

She wanted to go out of town to see Mrs. Zhang who was rescued yesterday.

This is an excuse.

But this excuse is true.

Liu Bai said, "I'll give you two scrolls. These scrolls will prove your identity and allow you to enter and exit the city freely. Even if the soldiers still don't recognize you when you come back, you can still come in with the scrolls."

My father is a great general of a country, and this identity really makes things much easier for her.

Su Rou rode a horse along the country road.

It rained yesterday and the air in the suburbs is fresh.

Su Rou arrived at the door of the peasant woman she had met yesterday and dismounted. Before she could knock on the door, she heard a man's voice coming from inside the house, and...

There was also the sound of a woman sobbing softly!

"You damn bitch, now that you've entered my house, you're my wife! How dare you run away!"

Su Rou realized something was wrong, "Bang!" She kicked the door open.

In the room, Mrs. Zhang knelt on the ground, tightly protecting the piece of human skin in her arms, while another man was beating Mrs. Zhang with a firewood stick.

The man looked at Su Rou who suddenly broke in, "You..."

Before the man could finish his words, Su Rou pulled out the dagger from her waist and cut the man's neck.

Su Rou frowned and asked the question that the man didn't have time to say, "Who are you?"

She clearly gave the man to a peasant woman yesterday, and she chose the peasant woman because there was no man in her house!

There was a noise coming from the inner room.

The peasant woman from yesterday came out with a vegetable spoon in her hand, "Da Qiang, why don't you continue beating me?"

The peasant woman met Su Rou's eyes, and then saw the body lying on the ground. She was stunned, "You..."

Su Rou was quick-witted and quick-handed. Before the peasant woman could shout, she grabbed the tablecloth thrown at the door, stuffed it into the peasant woman's mouth, and tied her up with a rope.

Su Rou turned her head to look for Mrs. Zhang, but the person who was originally there had disappeared.

There were already quite a few people gathered outside the door.

Su Rou was afraid of being seen and causing panic, so she closed the door.

"That daughter-in-law ran away again. I beat her for such a long time yesterday and she still didn't obey. Hey? Why is there another one so young?"

"I really envy Daqiang's family. If it were me, they'd have to be tied up with a rope to keep them in line!"

Su Rou found that they were just gathered here chatting and not doing anything, so she quickly went to chase after Mrs. Zhang.

She jumped on her horse and quickly caught up with Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang stumbled and fell headfirst to the ground.

She still has to use this man to make a deal with the old woman, so he won’t die so easily!

Su Rou reined in her horse and stopped.

"I'm the one who saved you yesterday, don't be afraid."

Mrs. Zhang collapsed on the ground, looking at Su Rou with tears in her eyes, but still with a vigilant look on her face.

Su Rou took a step forward, and Mrs. Zhang took a step back.

Su Rou had no choice but to explain, "Look, I'm just a woman, right? If I want to do something to you, you have a better chance of winning, right?"

Mrs. Zhang looked at her cautiously, "But you just... killed that man in one go."

Su Rou: “…”

That seems to be the case.
