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

Su Rou yawned, wearing a waistcoat, and leaned against the door frame.

Su Wan tried to help the old man up, "You get up first, we can discuss it. It's cold at night, what does it look like for you to kneel at the door of the general's mansion?"

The old man pushed Su Wan away and said stubbornly, "No! Unless you ask Su Rou to release him right now!"

Su Rou was speechless. Where did the Jiang family learn this tactic of threatening others even though they had no ability?

Su Rou said, "Dad, the old man said he likes to kneel like this. Let's go inside and ignore him. It's freezing outside."

Su Wan looked back at Su Rou and said, "Rou, this isn't the right thing to do. No matter what he says..."

Su Rou turned around and said, "You are playing the pitiful game, but my father is kind-hearted and sympathetic to you. I won't. Also, unless you compensate Jiang Ci for the financial losses he has suffered recently, I might consider it."

She will take all the money from the general's mansion away in the future.

Although the loss caused by Jiang Ci was only a tiny amount, it was still not acceptable.

The old man said, "Where are you going to ask us to find so much silver? Su Wan, the daughter of the Jiang family is your eldest wife after all. As the head of the family, you can't make the decision to let her go?!"

Su Wan hesitated for a moment.

Su Rou, who was about to go back, stopped and looked back.

You know what, Dad really wouldn't let that person go without her knowledge.

Su Rou said, "Your family has a queen, and you must have received many rewards from the palace. If all else fails, sell the Jiang family's old house. My father won't help you release the people. If you want to save them, there is only one way. Gather the money and give it to me, or I will go and talk to the emperor tomorrow. How can a queen be a rogue?"

The old man raised his head. "You! You have such a cruel heart! I've even knelt down to beg you."

Su Rou took out a small piece of silver from her pocket and threw it to the old man from the other side of the door, "Here's a reward for you."

"laugh"

A light laugh came from behind Su Rou.

She turned her head and found Su Chi standing beside her with a faint smile on his face.

"Third brother, you are still awake so late."

Su Chi said, "I heard some noise and came to check it out. It turned out to be you who was causing all the trouble. You even dared to offend the Jiang family, and now you have to let Dad clean up your mess."

Su Rou walked up to him and lowered her voice, "Third brother, in fact, all of this was tacitly approved by the Queen. Look, that old man was so arrogant before, why didn't he go to the Queen? Now he comes to beg me?"

Su Chi suddenly realized and tucked her waistcoat in. "Go back to sleep."

Su Rou nodded, "Then Third Brother, help me bring Dad back."

Su Rou was just about to return to the yard when she saw Su Shi who had also come out to watch the fun.

"Mother, why did you come out?"

Su's eyes were filled with worry. "Arou, you arrested someone from the Jiang family? Why?"

Su Rou soothed Su's emotions, "No reason, mother should go back too."

She can handle Jiang's affairs on her own and shouldn't let her mother get involved.

The sky was completely bright, and the outside of the general's mansion was filled with discussions and accusations.

The maid in the mansion came to report to her, "Miss, the head of the Jiang family has used some method to attract the people on the street. Some people only know the general situation and are pointing and talking at the gate of our general's mansion."

Su Rou lay in the rocking chair, raised her hand lazily and bowed, "Don't worry about him. This old man wants to ruin the reputation of the General's Mansion. If I give in to him, the Jiang family will only become more aggressive."

There is another reason: the time is not right yet.

Su Rou reached out to touch the watermelon next to her, but she felt an extra force on her wrist.

Su Rou opened her eyes and saw that it was Su Chi.

"The sun is too strong during the day. If you continue to be exposed to it, you will turn into charcoal."

Su Rou straightened up and said, "Third brother, why are you here?"

Su Chi said, "There's a competition going on in the training grounds today. All the princes will be there. Do you want to go and take a look?"

Su Rou hesitated for a moment. Xie Yuan was beaten like that last time. Would he go too?

Su Chi seemed to see through her thoughts and said, "Xie Yuan is not going."

Su Rou nodded rapidly and quickly got up from the rocking chair. "Go, go, I'll change my clothes right away. Third brother, wait for me."

Su Rou's heart was beating with joy.

When she followed Su Chi out of the gate, she ignored the old man kneeling on the ground.

In fact, the old man couldn't stand the cold yesterday and went back directly. He came back early this morning and knelt down again.

Did he want her to feel as if he had been kneeling there for a whole day and night?

laugh!

Su Rou glanced around coldly, then turned around and climbed onto the carriage.

Some people on the roadside pointed and talked, while others stood up to speak well of the general's mansion.

"General Su is a man of integrity. This old man kneeling here must have crossed General Su's bottom line."

"But you can't let an old man of this age kneel here. The weather is changing so strangely these days. It's very hot during the day and very cold at night. I saw this old man kneeling here before I closed the stall last night."

Su Rou lay on the carriage, took a look at the situation outside, felt bored, and lowered the curtain again.

"Why not have someone tie up that old man and lock him up in the backyard? He's such a nuisance. Northern people love the elderly and children, and this old man just happens to be an old man."

Su Chi said, "If you're unhappy, just chase him away. He's so stubbornly kneeling at the door, why don't you feel a bit of pity?"

Su Rou said, "He was the first to offend the General's Mansion. All the money my father earned belongs to us. What does it have to do with the Jiang family? They stick together for warmth, so why can't I take them all down?"

Su Chi said, "That's not what I meant. It just seems like my little sister has grown up and has her own opinions."

Su Rou also knew that her third brother probably wanted to say that she had become different from before.

She couldn't remember what she was like before, but she was enjoying the present.

Xie Yuan was right when she said before that she liked to see naked men. On the training ground, more than 20 young men were standing in the sun with their bare white arms.

The maidservant was waiting beside her, holding an umbrella for her. "Miss, the Third Master said he prepared some fruit for you. You can eat while you read."

Su Rou nodded and said, "Please move a stool over here. It's rare to see such a lively atmosphere today. All the princes are gathered here for everything."

She paused and waited.

Are all the princes here? !

She straightened up suddenly, putting her hands on the handrails of the stand.

If this is the case, the emperor's intentions are obvious. The emperor wants to replace Xie Yuan, so he needs to use this method to find out the power of other princes.

Su Rou was delighted, but she was just relying on the fact that he was the son of the late queen. If she really compared him, Xie Yuan was really not up to par!
