Going to Beijing to save his father, all the powerful officials in the city are vying to be his fath

Zhao Liangchen's kneeling startled not only Su Qin, but also Zeng Lao. Zeng Lao reached out to pull him: "What are you doing? Get up quickly! Are you trying to embarrass Su Qin?"

Zhao Liangchen refused to get up. "Miss Su, this is all my fault. I am willing to accept any punishment. I will do my best to make up for my mistakes. I will do my best to save your family. If I can't save them, I will pay with my life."

Because the ground was covered with broken porcelain pieces, he knelt right on the pieces, and soon blood began to flow out. A bloody smell filled the air, and Su Qin realized that he was kneeling on the pieces.

Although she hated the Zhao family and Zhao Liangchen, if she wanted revenge she would do it with real weapons and would find a way to send them directly to hell. She did not like torturing others. When she tortured others, she was also torturing herself.

So she didn't want to see Zhao Liangchen kneeling here and performing a self-torture trick. She stopped crying, wiped her tears and said, "You killed my family. You should save them. As for the idea of ​​paying with your life if you can't save them, forget it. If you die, my family won't survive either."

After saying that, she turned around and left. She was tired of crying and wanted to take a rest.

After Su Qin left, Zeng Lao pulled Zhao Liangchen up and said, "Hurry up and get up. It's not nice to kneel here. Even if you die kneeling here, it won't help. You might as well get up and think about how to save people."

Zhao Liangchen stood up, his expression a little numb. Blood was flowing down his trouser legs, but he didn't feel anything.

Zeng Lao saw the blood and asked with concern: "Does it hurt?"

Zhao Liangchen shook his head. This little pain was nothing compared to the pain of a sword piercing his chest.

Zeng Lao sighed and went back to his room, took out the ointment and handed it to Zhao Liangchen: "Apply the ointment, and rest here today."

Zhao Liangchen took the ointment and bent down to clean up the mess on the ground, but Zeng Lao stopped him: "Let me do it, you stop the bleeding first."

Zhao Liangchen sat on a stool nearby, rolled up his trouser legs, and began to tend to his wounds. Zeng Lao went out, got a broom, and began to sweep. As he swept, he muttered distressedly, "There are so many leftovers. We can have a meal tomorrow morning. It's a pity to throw them all away."

"I didn't expect that Su Qin, who looks so gentle, could get so angry."

"Indeed, to be able to survive the flood and find his way to the capital, how can he not be amazing?"

"It's better to be strong. If you are strong, you won't be bullied. It seems that I really need to find a husband for her. I hope she can find a husband with a gentle temper. Otherwise, it will be easy to get killed."

Su Qin, who was being talked about, didn't know that Mr. Zeng had already started to consider what kind of son-in-law to find for him. After returning to the room, she washed her face and rinsed her mouth, then fell on the bed and sighed comfortably.

As expected, a crazy life is a smooth life. After crying and making a fuss, all the depression in her heart was released, and she felt refreshed.

She originally wanted to think about what Zhao Liangchen's purpose was in confessing the matter to her, but the new bedding was so comfortable that she fell asleep in a short while.

She fell asleep, but the two in the main room couldn't sleep.

Zeng was always afraid that Su Qin's identity would be discovered by others, so he thought about how to change her identity as soon as possible. Slave status was not enough, he had to transfer Su Qin's household registration to his own name as soon as possible so that she would become his real granddaughter and no one would check.

Zhao Liangchen was thinking about how to save the Su family because he knew that there was no time. In his previous life, the refugees started to make trouble because they were not resettled or given relief. The imperial guards tried to stop them and a conflict broke out. The situation got bigger and bigger and finally turned into a riot. All the refugees started to attack the city gates.

Finally, the court, under the suggestion of his father's faction, decided to kill the entire Su family to appease public opinion.

In the end, Su Jijing's entire family and the imperial guards involved in the case were dragged out of the city, their crimes announced to all the refugees, and then they were beheaded in public. Officials from his father's faction pretended to find the embezzled disaster relief money and distributed it to the victims, finally calming the refugees' anger. The refugees received the money and food and began to return home, and the matter was over.

In the end, the lives of the entire Su family and several imperial guards were exchanged for the refugees' praise and gratitude for his father's officials. It also greatly increased the prestige of the people behind his father, so that when he later rebelled, he received the support of hundreds of people, which was simply in line with the will of the people.

At that time, Zhao Liangchen was proud of his father's justice and took the initiative to donate all his private money.

Now thinking about it, it was such a ridiculous joke. My father's faction embezzled the disaster relief money, eliminated dissidents, and took control of the Ministry of Revenue.

He also used disaster relief funds to win people's hearts and boost his reputation and fame.

What they are doing is even more amazing than getting something for nothing. Others get something for nothing, but they get everything in one fell swoop and reach the sky in one step.

Zhao Liangchen secretly clenched his fists. He would never let them succeed in this life.

The Su family members in prison also couldn't sleep. They waited until late at night when there were no prison guards patrolling before they dared to open the small bag given by Su Qin.

The bundle was not big, slightly longer than the palm of a hand, and flat. Mrs. Su leaned over to the small window on the wall and opened it to check with the faint light of the moon.

There was a piece of paper in the first bundle. Mrs. Su opened it and carefully identified that it was a letter written by Su Qin to Su Jijing.

Mrs. Su lowered her voice and read it softly to Su Jijing.

The main content of the letter was to explain her current situation. In addition to briefly writing about how she escaped the flood, how her grandmother died, and how she came to Shangjing City, she also wrote that she was captured by Zhao Liangchen as soon as she entered the city, wrote about Zhao Liangchen's attitude towards her, and asked them not to worry about her, and that she had ways to deal with it.

Su Jijing looked a little panicked after hearing this: "Qin'er fell into the hands of the Zhao family? What do they want to do?"

Madam Su was also a little nervous, but she was able to remain calm and analyzed: "Master, don't worry. Since the Zhao family captured Qin'er but didn't send her directly to the prison, there must be other purposes.

It must be the Zhao family who brought her to see us today. I guess they want to get something from you through Qin'er.

If they don't achieve their goal, they won't touch Qin'er. They will definitely let her come to see us. We just have to wait patiently."

How could Su Jijing feel at ease? He was not afraid of Su Qin being arrested, but he didn't know what the Zhao family would do to Su Qin. "If she could be imprisoned as well, our family would be together in life and death. Now she is trapped in a den of wolves, and she doesn't know what she will suffer. What if, what if the Zhao family takes her..."

He couldn't continue. Whenever he thought about what Su Qin might have suffered, his heart felt like it was being torn apart. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of humiliation that would be worse than death.

Mrs. Su understood what he meant. As a woman, especially a beautiful woman, life is sometimes more terrifying than death.

When she was arrested, she was glad that her family would not survive, instead of being exiled or sold as slaves.

Even if they were not sentenced to death, she would drag her daughter and kill herself by ramming her head into the wall rather than living and being humiliated.

Now that Su Qin is outside, she really doesn't know what she's going to suffer.

She didn't know how to comfort Su Jijing, so she could only silently look at the other things in the bag.

There were also many small paper bags wrapped in oil paper in the bundle.

She opened them one by one and looked at the paper packages inside. They said: Antipyretic medicine, Cold medicine, Wound medicine, Diarrhea medicine...

These are all emergency medicines.

Madam Su was delighted. She held the medicine bag in front of Su Jijing and said, "Master, you have the medicine. You and Sheng'er can be saved."

Her son Su Sheng had been running a high fever for several days due to excessive shock and the cold in the prison. She thought Su Sheng would die in the prison, but she didn't expect Su Qin to send medicine.

Su Jijing's body was covered with wounds due to torture, and without timely medical treatment, the wounds had festered and pus was oozing out. He also had a high fever for several days.

Su Jijing looked at the bags of medicine and said with a wry smile, "What's the use of having medicine? I'm going to die anyway, sooner or later, so there's no need to waste these medicines."
