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

Zhao Liangsi angrily scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? I am your biological brother, how could I possibly harm you?"

Zhao Qingning chuckled lightly: "What's the point of having a biological sister? Didn't you betray your biological parents just for your own benefit?"

Zhao Liangsi roared as if his veil had been lifted: "No, I didn't betray my father or mother. I was trying to save them."

Zhao Qingning said indifferently: "It doesn't matter. Whatever you say is what it is. Now that my parents are gone, the connection between us has been cut off. You don't need to worry about my affairs in the future."

Zhao Liangsi was almost angry to death. He didn't want Zhao Qingning to think that he had killed his parents, but it was obvious that Zhao Qingning didn't want to listen to his explanation anymore.

He could only suppress his anger and say, "When my father is gone, my eldest brother is my father. I am still here. If you become a monk, how will others see me?"

Zhao Qingning sneered: "So you only care about your own face, and don't care about whether I am doing well or not. You don't need to worry about my affairs. Even if the eldest brother is the father, my eldest brother is the big brother, not you."

Zhao Liangsi was really furious, raising his hand to slap Zhao Qingning: "You bastard, Zhao Liangchen is not your eldest brother, he is a bastard, I am your biological eldest brother."

Before his hand fell, Zhao Liangchen stopped him: "Second brother, even if you are the second sister's biological brother, you can't interfere in her affairs. She makes her own decisions."

Zhao Liangsi shook off Zhao Liangchen's hand and said angrily: "Get out, what do you have to do here? My sister's affairs are none of your business."

Zhao Liangchen curled his lips: "I really don't want to care, but your mother entrusted your second sister to me before she died. Since I promised, I will take care of it to the end."

Zhao Liangsi's face turned pale. "Impossible! I'm still here. How could Mother possibly entrust my sister to you?"

Zhao Liangchen sneered, "Because she said you are stupid and unreliable."

Zhao Liangsi roared, "You're talking nonsense! My mother would never say that to me."

Zhao Liangchen: "If you don't believe me, you can ask anyone in the Zhao family. Your mother said it in front of them, and they can all testify."

Zhao Liangsi looked at the Zhao family, and everyone nodded at him: "Liangchen is right, your mother did say that."

Although Zhao Liangsi is the legitimate son, they are not stupid and of course know who they can rely on. Even Zhao Liangsi's mother did not believe in him and entrusted her daughter to Zhao Liangchen. How could they not support Zhao Liangchen?

Zhao Liangsi's face turned pale instantly, as if all his strength had been drained away. He said to Zhao Qingning almost pleadingly, "Second sister, don't you believe me either? Zhao Liangchen hates mother, how could he possibly be good to you?"

Zhao Qingning looked at the dejected Zhao Liangsi and said a few sincere words, "Big brother won't harm me, and he doesn't hate mother. It has always been you who has been prejudiced against big brother. If you hadn't competed with big brother and concentrated on studying, you would have achieved fame long ago.

"Second brother, your parents are gone. There's no one left in this world who can pamper you or spoil you. You'll have to rely on yourself from now on. There are no real shortcuts in this world. Even if you hate your eldest brother so much as to kill him, you won't be better. I don't want you to follow in your parents' footsteps. The only way to save yourself is to keep your feet on the ground. Because you're my brother, this is my final advice to you. Take care of yourself."

Zhao Liangsi stared at Zhao Qingning blankly, as if he was meeting this sister for the first time. In his eyes, this sister was always taciturn and not close to anyone. He always thought that this sister was a little dull, not as smart as him, but now he was being lectured by this sister.

He couldn't explain how he felt right now. He knew that he would have to rely on himself after his father passed away, so it was impossible for him not to be panicked.

But Zhao Qingning didn't believe what Zhao Liangchen said about not hating his mother. He had seen what kind of life Zhao Liangchen had led since childhood. If he had lived that kind of life since childhood, he would have wanted to kill everyone who bullied him. How could Zhao Liangchen not hate them?

Moreover, Zhao Liangchen has been stepped on by him since he was a child. He has always lived better than Zhao Liangchen. Now that Zhao Liangchen is living better than him, how can he be willing to stop competing with Zhao Liangchen?

Zhao Qingning saw that he obviously didn't listen, so she ignored him and looked at Zhao Liangchen: "Brother, I want to ask you to help me find a nunnery."

Zhao Liangchen was also very surprised that Zhao Qingning was the most insightful person in the Zhao family. There was no hatred between them, and Zhao Qingning had never bullied him. He was willing to help Zhao Qingning, but he was still hesitant about sending her to become a nun.

He knew how difficult life was for women in this world. After Su Qin's parents were imprisoned, she had put in so much effort to achieve the current result. Even so, she didn't feel safe, not to mention that Zhao Qingning didn't have the same ability as Su Qin, and there was no one behind her willing to help her.

Her future life will be difficult without her support, but becoming a nun may not necessarily be a good outcome. Wherever there are people, there will be competition and intrigue. She may not be able to find peace in the nunnery.

But now is not the time to talk about this. No matter how smart Zhao Qingning is, she is still young and there are some things she cannot understand.

Zhao Liangchen thought for a moment and said, "I can find a nunnery for you and send you there, but I have one request. Don't shave your head yet. Let your hair remain as a nunnery. When you're over 20 and decide to serve the Buddha, you can shave your head later."

Zhao Qingning thought about it and agreed. It didn’t matter when she would become a nun. She just wanted to find a quiet place to live a good life.

It takes time to find a nunnery, so except for Zhao Qingning, all other members of the Zhao family left Zhao Liangchen's home.

Zhao Liangchen went to look for the nunnery in person, and only took up his post after sending Zhao Qingning to the nunnery.

While he was dealing with these matters, many major events also happened in the court.

The private soldiers from Chanzhou brought by Qi Jingde were officially named the Shenwu Army, and they jointly protected the Shangjing City with the Imperial Guards. However, except for some close associates of Zhao Liangchen and Zou Tai, other Imperial Guards were not allowed to enter the palace.

The emperor was surrounded by people from the Shenwu Army. Wang Er was appointed a sixth-rank captain and became the emperor's personal guard.

The autumn examinations have already begun in various places. The emperor ordered Qi Jingde to lead the Shenwu Army to rush to various places to escort the successful candidates in the autumn examinations who have to travel far to Beijing to take part in the special examinations. The travel expenses, food and accommodation will be fully borne by the court. This will not only shorten the time for candidates to travel to Beijing, but also prevent some poor candidates from being delayed due to lack of travel expenses.

Although the court was short of many officials, it was busy but orderly. Grand Tutor Yan and Grand Preceptor were slowly handing power back to the emperor, allowing him to rule the country himself.

As for the Privy Councilor, he played no bad role in the case of Prince Liang, nor did he play any good role. He did nothing at all. How could the emperor still keep such an inactive fence-sitter? He directly dismissed him from his post.

His position was directly abolished, so the army was directly managed by the emperor. The commanders of the local garrison troops would be replaced and sent to other places if it was found that they had no collusion with King Liang. Thereafter, they would be replaced every five years.

The court was very busy, and the local governments were also busy. Officials who colluded with King Liang were being investigated in all places.

Many of the imperial merchants who had previously cooperated with King Liang were imprisoned, and were replaced by imperial merchants who cooperated with Qi Lusheng.

Qi Lusheng originally wanted to return the business to the emperor, but the emperor assigned him an official position to specifically help the emperor with business, and he became even busier than before.

Compared to the busyness of others, Zhao Liangchen lived a very easy life. With the Shenwu Army, he didn't have to go to the palace often. He just worked with Jin Tong to reorganize and thoroughly investigate the imperial guards.

Moreover, he is a hands-off boss. He does whatever Jin Tong asks him to do without worrying about anything.

In this tense yet leisurely atmosphere, the weather was getting colder and colder, and Zhao Liangchen finally received the news that Su Qin was coming back.

At the same time, Su Jijing and his family were also called back to Beijing.
