"Released from confinement? How is that possible? Why?!"

Su Yuejian's eyes trembled.

Su Lin's expression was tense. "Prince Gong wrote to the emperor. He learned from the family letter he found in Cui Yingyu's room that the Cui family was building weapons and stationing troops. He immediately put his family aside for the sake of justice and reported Cui Quanji and his family to the emperor."

"What?!" Su Yuejian frowned, "This is impossible! The Cui family and Prince Gong are closely connected. How could the emperor believe such nonsense?"

Su Lin frowned and said, "As I said, Prince Gong is the emperor's favorite son, so the emperor naturally believes it."

"This..." Su Yuejian's eyes were full of disbelief.

Su Lin's brows furrowed. "The Emperor has already issued an order to raid the Cui family and execute all nine generations of their clan. Xiao Chengchang was fair and just, so the Emperor praised him greatly. Not only did he release him from confinement, he also invited famous doctors to treat his leg."

Su Yuejian's expression grew colder by the second.

Why is this... How could the Emperor...

Could it be that he was also possessed by someone?

But it doesn't make sense at all...

When Su Yue met him, he was as gloomy as water, with his cold eyes and eyebrows full of sorrow.

Su Lin patted her gently and warned her softly,

"No matter what, he is the emperor's son, a child of destiny. Don't do such dangerous things again."

Su Yuejian pursed her lips and did not reply.

Su Lin looked at the rejection in her eyes and his expression became serious.

"If we really have to do it, it should be done by my father. It is what a subject should do. You are not allowed to interfere."

"And about the Manjushage, if the person behind it..."

Su Lin suddenly fell silent, and Su Yue heard his voice was cold.

"No matter who is behind this, my mother's murder must be repaid with blood!"

Su Lin looked at the irresistible light in her eyes, his eyes trembling, and after a long silence, he nodded slightly.

"There's one more thing. Yan Zhou sent a message saying that a plague has suddenly broken out in the Chenjun area."

Su Yuejian frowned, "Plague?"

"Didn't my brother and the prince prepare medicinal herbs in advance? How did a plague suddenly break out?"

Su Lin said, "The former Minister of Revenue, Lin Quan, had his property confiscated, and it was discovered in his corruption account book that he embezzled disaster relief funds when purchasing medicinal herbs this time, and some of the purchased herbs were inferior."

"The Emperor ordered a thorough investigation. After Yan Zhou re-inspected the entire territory of Yuzhou, he discovered that the people in the Chenjun area had received only old and damp herbs, which had greatly lost their effectiveness. This was the cause of the plague."

Su Yue's expression suddenly darkened.

Su Lin said gently, "However, there are not many people infected with the disease at present. They have all been controlled. There are still many doctors in the local area."

"The Ministry of Revenue has allocated new funds to purchase medicinal materials, and they will arrive soon."

Su Yue's face turned stern. She had thought that the plague in her previous life was a natural disaster, but now it seemed that it was most likely a man-made disaster!

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is an upright person, and Lin Quan did not dare to make a big fuss about embezzling disaster relief funds.

But the person who went to provide disaster relief in the previous life was Xiao Chengchang. No wonder Xiao Chengchang had money to expand his army in the previous life. It turned out that in addition to Shui Yunjian, there was also Lin Quan, the lackey, who asked him for money.

Su Lin looked at Su Yuejian's furrowed brows and slowed down his tone.

"Yan Zhou sent a message asking me to tell you that I can't come back to attend your coming-of-age ceremony."

"Because he was worried that you would be angry, he even had someone send over the coming-of-age gift he had prepared."

Su Yuejian's eyebrows relaxed, and she looked at Su Lin and smiled.

"It's nothing serious. It's just a coming-of-age ceremony. The most important thing is that the people can be safe as soon as possible."

Su Lin nodded and smiled, and asked someone to give her the brocade box sent by Su Yanzhou.

Su Yuejian watched as Butler Xu brought in a square wooden box.

"Is it sealed so tightly?"

Su Yuejian knocked on the wooden box, her bright eyes full of curiosity.

Yuzhu smiled and said, "I don't know what the young master has prepared. He has made it quite mysterious."

Su Lin smiled and nodded, "Xu Fu, open it and take a look."

Butler Xu took the order, wiped off the mud sealing the outer layer of the wooden box, opened the box and handed it over.

Several people stretched their necks and looked at the wooden box full of soil, with a slender green grass sprout standing on it.

Su Lin's smile froze. "What is this? A...weed?"

"Where did he pull that weed out of?"

Su Yuejian looked at the young grass sprout, her eyes already shining with excitement.

"What's going on with Yan Zhou? Was he sent to the wrong place?"

Su Yuejian was very excited.

"Dad, brother must have sent the right thing! This is not an ordinary weed, it's black wind grass, the nemesis of all poisons in the world, extremely precious."

"I don't know where my brother found it. Countless herbalists have spent years searching in the mountains, but they can't find any trace of it. This is the dream herb of many doctors! It's something you can only encounter once in a while!"

Su Yuejian stared at the black wind grass without blinking and talked incessantly.

"And look, Daddy, this black wind grass still has its roots. My brother specially had it planted so that I can keep it alive and..."

Suddenly noticing the unusual silence around him, he turned around to look at Su Lin and Butler Xu's puzzled eyes, and his words were choked.

Butler Xu was puzzled when he saw that Su Yuejian could tell the difference of the grass with just one glance.

"What doctor? What love grass? Princess, do you...know medicine?"

Su Lin also looked straight at Su Yuejian, and Su Yuejian blinked guiltily.

Seeing her like this, Su Lin knew there was nothing he didn't understand. Well done, she had hidden a lot of things from him!

Su Lin waved his hand, "Alright, put your things down and go out!"

After they left, Su Yuejian smiled at Su Lin and said, "Dad, I'm not..."

"Don't call me dad, we are not familiar with each other."

Su Lin sat calmly, looking straight ahead, not even looking at her smiling face.

Su Yuejian,?

"father.."

"Do not."

Su Yuejian,? ?

Seeing Su Lin's angry look, Su Yuejian smiled helplessly, rolled her eyes, sighed, and lowered her head.

"Alas, it's because I have been sick since I was young. I have become a doctor after being sick for a long time. If I didn't know some medical skills, there would be so many..."

Before Su Yuejian could finish, Su Lin turned around and comforted her gently.

"It's all Daddy's fault, it's Daddy's fault..."

Su Yuejian looked up and smiled.

Su Lin was helpless. In fact, he was not angry at all, he was just jealous that Su Yanzhou knew everything while he was the only one kept in the dark.

"You two brothers and sisters are in cahoots with each other and treat me like an outsider!"

Su Lin nodded her head.

Su Yuejian grinned and patted Su Lin's shoulders.

"No, I will never do that again. Don't worry, Daddy. If anything happens in the future, I will be the first to tell you!"

Su Lin nodded with satisfaction, "That's pretty good."

Su Yuejian suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Dad, you know that medicine and poison are inseparable."

Su Lin raised his eyebrows,?

Su Yuejian didn't say anything else, and Su Lin looked at her.

Su Yuejian stood there obediently, smiling slightly, "Daddy, I'm telling you."

Su Lin,? ? What do you mean?
