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

When Su Qin heard this voice, her heart skipped a beat: Oh no, someone discovered us.

She subconsciously curled up her head and limbs like a turtle and huddled into a ball.

Then a head appeared above her head, baring its big white teeth and grinning: "Hey, bastard, do you need help?"

Su Qin was annoyed at being called a bastard. She wanted to lose her temper, but when she looked up, she saw that the man was wearing a phoenix-wing helmet, with a square and slightly dark face, bent over with a relaxed look on his face, but his right hand was on the sword at his waist.

The anger in her heart disappeared instantly: How sad! How could I have such an unlucky chance to run into soldiers?

She laughed timidly: "No need, sir, I can do it myself."

She tried to put on a standard, friendly smile.

Unfortunately, she forgot that she had smeared black ash on her face for safety along the way. She had sweated a lot, and wrinkles were left on her face. This smile did not look beautiful, but rather very funny, which made the man laugh again.

"How can that be? Don't be polite. I'm always willing to help others."

After saying that, he kicked the "ear" on the iron pot without giving Su Qin a chance to refute. The big iron pot began to spin, and Su Qin, who was curled up into a ball, spun uncontrollably.

Su Qin, who was already dizzy from exhaustion and hunger, felt dizzy and her vision went black. Her stomach started churning and she began to dry heave: "Ugh."

She hadn't eaten for a long time, and there was only the water she had just drunk in her stomach. The dry heaves made her spit out the acid water, and because she was lying on her back, the acid water choked her and she started coughing violently.

Her violent coughing did not arouse the man's sympathy, but instead made him laugh even louder.

Su Qin, who was extremely distressed, suddenly became furious. Damn it, she was already so pitiful, and yet she was still bullied like this. She was a coward, but that didn't mean she would let others bully her.

She has already entered the city and will see her father soon. Her father is a third-rank official. No matter what the officer's position is, he must give an explanation for teasing the official's daughter. Even if she retaliates now, nothing will happen to her.

Thinking of this, she tried hard to suppress her nausea, steadying herself, and reaching into the pot behind her to pull out the hatchet. Before she could pull it out, she suddenly heard a cold voice: "Zou Tai!"

The voice was low and contained dissatisfaction and warning. Zou Tai, who was laughing happily, curled his lips when he heard it and reluctantly stopped the turning pot with his foot: "Okay, I was just joking, don't be angry."

"Bang!" With a sound, the pot suddenly stopped turning, and the direction of the stop just made Su Qin face Zou Tai. Su Qin also stabilized her body, but she still felt dizzy and nauseous. However, she held it back, her nerves tense, looking vigilantly ahead, her hands still deep behind her.

It was only then that she realized that in addition to Zou Tai who was teasing her, there was another man standing behind him, looking at her seriously.

Like Zou Tai, he wore a phoenix-wing helmet, dark armor, and a ring-handled sword on his waist. Zou Tai had a square face, and he was thin, with distinct facial features, deep eye sockets, a high nose bridge, and lips that looked like they were carved by a knife. He exuded fortitude and sharpness. Judging from his face, one felt that he was an upright person, but Su Qin always had a hunch that there was a gloomy aura about him, which did not match his appearance at all.

The man looked at Su Qin without Zou Tai's playful and disdainful gaze. He simply looked at her calmly and asked, "Who are you and why did you sneak into the city?"

Su Qin was panicking. When did they find out that she had sneaked into the city?

These two were imperial guards, the ones who had been intercepting refugees ten miles outside the city. They were also officials. Those who could wear this armor were all military commanders, and their official positions were not low, so Su Qin was very nervous.

Did they find her hiding under the car outside the city? That shouldn't be the case. If they had found her then, they would have caught her long ago, right?

She calmed herself down. No matter when she was discovered, she had already entered the city. As long as she revealed her identity and met her father, there would be no problem.

So she met the man's gaze and answered, "I am Su Qin. I came to the city to find my father."

"Su Qin?"

Zhao Liangchen read the name, as if recalling something. Just as he was thinking, Zou Tai couldn't wait any longer and said fiercely, "Who is your father? You are not lying, right? You look like a refugee from outside the city. Who knows what he is up to after sneaking into the city."

Su Qin said unconvincedly: "Who lied? My father is a hu..."

Before she finished speaking, Zhao Liangchen suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "Zou Tai, tie her up."

Su Qin's eyes widened: "Wait, why did you tie me up? I said I came to find my father, my father is..."

"Gag her mouth."

Zhao Liangchen ordered coldly. Zou Tai immediately pulled out a handkerchief and covered Su Qin's mouth. He then took out a rope and quickly tied Su Qin's hands and feet. Su Qin struggled for a long time in vain and was hit on the head by Zou Tai: "Behave yourself. If you don't behave, you will be punished with a stick."

Su Qin was obedient. She couldn't bear the loss in front of her. These two people were unreasonable and there was no point in saying anything more. Anyway, they couldn't just kill her directly. She would find a chance to reveal her identity later. When she saw her father, she would make sure to let her father report them.

Zou Tai was very strong. He lifted Su Qin up by the rope that tied the pot to her belly as if she were a turtle. "Liangchen, where are you taking her?"

Zhao Liangchen: "The government jail."

Zou Tai nodded: "Okay."

He carried Su Qin and Zhao Liangchen out of the alley, stopped a carriage on the street, threw Su Qin in, and then asked Zhao Liangchen: "Who will take it?"

Zhao Liangchen: "Go ahead. After you're done, you can leave immediately. I'll take care of the rest of the patrol."

Zou Tai immediately bumped into Zhao Liangchen with a smile on his face: "Good brother, you are so loyal. Thank you very much. I will take your place next time."

He sat on the carriage and happily let the driver take him to the government office.

Zhao Liangchen looked at the carriage going away with a solemn expression. The name Su Qin made him feel somewhat familiar. Although he had only been reborn a few days ago, in his world, what was happening now had happened several years ago in his previous life, and many things had become very vague.

As soon as Su Qin uttered the word "household", he suddenly thought of Su Jijing, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Households.

Floods in Chanzhou caused hundreds of thousands of refugees to flee north. In his previous life, Su Jijing was sentenced to death for embezzling disaster relief funds. At that time, as a trusted person around the emperor, he privately investigated and collected evidence of Su Jijing's crimes and handed it to the emperor.

At that time, he really thought that Su Jijing had embezzled disaster relief funds and hated Su Jijing so much that he personally went to investigate the Su family and found out that he had another daughter in the countryside. Because the evidence was conclusive, all the members of the Su family were sentenced to death. He also went to look for Su Qin and Su Jijing's mother, but unfortunately, he found that they had died in the flood.

It was not until his death that he realized that he had done many wrong things and killed many people by mistake, and the most wronged of them was the Su family.

Although it is not known whether this Su Qin is Su Jijing's daughter, and why she did not die in the flood like in her previous life, and was found in Shangjing City, it is also unknown.

He subconsciously didn't want anyone to know her identity and wanted to keep her before finding out everything. This was also his compensation for killing Su Jijing's entire family in his previous life.

In this life, just like in his previous one, Su Jijing was arrested again on charges of embezzling disaster relief funds. When he was reborn, his entire family was already in the Ministry of Justice's prison, and he could no longer change the outcome.

If Su Qin's identity was exposed, she would definitely be sent to the Ministry of Justice prison immediately.

He was unable to rescue the Su family now, but he still had a way to protect Su Qin. Because Su Qin's mother had a difficult labor when giving birth to her, Su Jijing had no time to take care of the young Su Qin, so Su Jijing's mother came and took Su Qin away. Most people in Shangjing City knew that the current Madam Su was a concubine, but not many knew that the Su family had an eldest daughter. Even if someone found out about her existence, they could just say that she died in the flood, just like in the previous life.

As long as Su Qin's identity is not exposed, she will be safe.
