You confiscated my property, I exiled you, why are you crying when the treasury is empty?

The two looked at each other.

Finally came.

Su Wanning reached out to help Zhan Beiwang straighten his messy collar.

She took out the sponge cushion she used at work and handed it to Zhan Beiwang.

"This pad at the back should be able to reduce some of the punishment."

After thinking for a while, she took out a few more pills and handed them to him.

"Take these pills as soon as possible after the punishment."

Zhan Beiwang took the thing Su Wanning handed to him and reached out to gently stroke a strand of hair on her forehead.

"Okay, protect yourself."

The news that Zhan Beiwang was summoned into the palace quickly spread throughout the mansion.

Su Wanning looked at the water that was still emitting hot steam and sighed, "Let's take it one step at a time."

After washing up, go to bed early.

Just after the hour of Mao, Su Wanning's alarm clock rang.

He quickly packed up and headed to the front hall.

I put everything in the room into the space.

When we arrived at the main hall, my grandmother and mother were already sitting there.

Judging from their expressions, they must have not slept all night.

"I've met my grandmother and mother."

Wu Qianyun pulled Su Wanning to her side and said, "Wang'er entered the palace yesterday and hasn't returned yet. The palace hasn't revealed any information. I'm afraid it must have come true. It's a pity that you just entered the palace and you've been involved in this."

As he spoke, he took a letter from the side and handed it to Su Wanning.

Written on it was "Divorce Letter".

Then he handed Su Wanning a wooden box, which was just big enough for her to hold in both hands.

"Life is not easy for women, but with this letter of divorce, at least you won't be criticized.

The Su family can't accommodate you, so take the money in this box and find a place where no one knows you and start a new life."

The meaning of the divorce letter here is equivalent to divorcing the husband. If the Su family had not been exiled at the same time, she could naturally move to another place and live a good life as Wu Qianyun said.

But now, she couldn't escape the fate of exile, so she stayed to see if she could survive two days and see if she could change the tragic outcome of the Zhan family.

Su Wanning opened the box and saw that it was full of various valuables.

Jewelry, banknotes, land deeds, silver and gold ingots, etc.

He closed the box and said, "These daughters-in-law will be kept for the family first. They will be used as a starting point for the family when we arrive in Lingnan."

Wu Qianyun naturally knew what Su Wanning meant when she heard her say this, but she still couldn't help but advise, "The journey is extremely dangerous, and you don't have enough food to eat, and you don't know whether you will live or die."

Su Wanning smiled and replied, "Grandma, the city gate will open soon, please take care of yourself."

Seeing that Su Wanning did not directly answer her question, Wu Qianyun looked at Su Wanning and shook her head, "You."

The carriage left the city and it was already bright outside.

After breakfast, mother-in-law Song Ying dismissed the servants in the house.

After a busy morning, Song Ying was just about to go back to rest.

A man walked over from the gate of the courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, I heard your courtyard was robbed yesterday?" Wan Ting came over, cracking melon seeds. "You're dismissing the servants today. Could it be that you can't even pay them their monthly wages?"

Then he walked over to Song Ying and said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't have any money, you can tell me. The third daughter-in-law and I will try to get it together for you."

Song Ying looked exhausted and already upset, and now seeing Wan Ting's gloating expression, she said, "Okay, then please, sister-in-law, please take out a few hundred taels so that I can pay out the servants in our courtyard last month's wages."

When Wan Ting heard that Song Ying wanted to borrow money, she was immediately panicked and stepped back. "Sister-in-law, you're joking. We don't have any money. I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."

Song Ying looked at Wan Ting who was fleeing in panic, and couldn't help but sneer, then whispered a few words to Qingzhu who was standing beside her.

Then Qingzhu took the things Song Ying handed over and walked out the door.

Su Wanning helped Song Ying over and said, "Mother has been worried all night, go back and rest for a while."

Just as Song Ying was about to agree, the doorman came running over.

"Madam, someone from the Zhou family is here."

"Zhou family?" Song Ying didn't react for a moment.

Su Wanning knew what the Zhou family was here for.

"Mother, it should be the Zhou family that is engaged to ours."

After Song Ying thought about it, her mood eased a little. She thought about how she had sent someone to Zhou's house yesterday to discuss moving up the wedding. The Zhou family must have agreed today.

I just don’t know what time we can go there in advance. If possible, I’d like to let Ranran go there first today.

"Please invite someone in quickly."

Su Wanning saw that Song Ying had clearly misunderstood something. "Mother, the Zhou family came so early. I'm afraid they must have received some news."

Song Ying's face froze, and she obviously thought of another possibility. She immediately ordered the servants, "Go call Ranran over."

After a while, Zhan Yiran came to the main hall.

"Someone from the Zhou family is here." Song Ying said.

Zhan Yiran glanced at Su Wanning and thought about what happened yesterday.

The person who came from Zhou's family was Zhou Xiaoping's second aunt, who was engaged to Zhan Yiran.

"Mrs. Zhan, I'm sorry to bother you with my visit today."

"What are you talking about? We're all family from now on." Song Ying said to the servant beside her, "Bring tea."

Aunt Zhou Xiaoping took a sip of tea and asked, "Why isn't Brother Yiran here?"

"I just returned from the border. After my wedding, I was called back to the palace. As usual, I played chess with the emperor for too long, so I stayed." Song Ying put down the teacup in her hand. "I wonder what brings you here today?"

"I won't keep you in suspense. This time we're here for our two families' wedding." Zhou Xiaoping's second aunt paused and then continued, "You should also know that our Zhou family was robbed yesterday. If we hold another wedding, I'm afraid we won't have the financial resources to support it."

"So what do you mean?" Song Ying clenched her hands and looked at Zhou Xiaoping's second aunt.

The other party spoke again, "Our Zhou family's third son's business is short of a payment for goods, so we wanted to get the betrothal gifts back first. As for the marriage between the two, why not cancel it first?"

Song Ying slammed the table, "Back then, your Zhou family tried so hard to get my Ran Ran to marry you, but now, my family..."

Before Song Ying could finish, Zhan Yiran interrupted her, "I agree to cancel the engagement."

"That's good, Miss Zhan, please ask someone to take my followers to get the original betrothal gifts." Zhou Xiaoping's second aunt gestured to the followers and then stood up.

Song Ying looked at the boxes of betrothal gifts being carried out and said, "Ranran, if we insist on not canceling the engagement, we can still find a way out for you."

"Mother, if things go as they have today, my daughter will be walking into a dangerous place if she marries him." Zhan Yiran looked at Su Wanning, "Let's stay together as a family and find a way out together."

When Su Wanning saw Zhan Yiran looking at her, she felt guilty for a moment and turned her gaze away.

"Mother, you go back and rest first. Leave the rest to Wan Ning and me." Zhan Yiran said.

Su Wanning immediately responded, "Yes, mother, you should go back and rest first."

After Song Ying left, Su Wanning was about to go back, but Zhan Yiran grabbed her wrist.

Su Wanning looked at Zhan Yiran, "Sister Yiran, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Come with me." As he said that, he pulled Su Wanning to her room and closed the door.

Seeing Zhan Yiran staring at her, she couldn't help but feel uneasy, "Sister, tell me what's going on."

"How did you know that the Zhou family would come to cancel the engagement today?"

"Guess."

"The warehouse was originally full, and I, who was in charge of the account books, had no idea when it was moved out. Later, the things in my grandmother and mother's room were moved to the warehouse. Without even a sound of horse hooves, the things in the warehouse disappeared." Zhan Yiran looked straight at Su Wanning.
