Going to Beijing to save his father, all the powerful officials in the city are vying to be his fath
Chapter 32: Unacknowledged Sins
Su Qin shook her head at Wang Er: "I didn't leave."
Wang Er was very puzzled: "If you didn't leave, why didn't you come out? Don't you know that Lord Yan said he would reward us? If you are not here, the reward will be lost. What a pity."
Su Qin: "I don't want the reward. I'm afraid of seeing the officials."
Wang Er: "Then I'll give you my reward. If you hadn't discovered it, I wouldn't have gotten it anyway."
Su Qin shook her head: "I don't want it. You got it by your own ability. Although I saw it, I don't have the ability to catch him. If I had gone over there just now, I might have been injured by that guy."
Wang Er was anxious: "How can that be? We are brothers, we should share happiness and difficulties together."
Xu Chunshan, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer. This idiot, after walking all this way, didn't even realize she was a girl, and yet they were still calling each other brothers every day. He interrupted Wang Er: "Alright, we haven't given anything yet, why are you so anxious? What if the court just gave a commendation order? How are you going to break up with Su Da?"
Wang Er was dumbfounded. "Ah? Just a commendation? What can that do? No money?"
Xu Chunshan shook his head: "Not necessarily. It depends on whether the emperor has money to give you. It could be silver, or it could be other rewards. However, most rewards have the seal of the palace and cannot be pawned for money at will."
Wang Er hung his head in disappointment. "Ah? I can't pay the silver back. What's the point? It's not enough to eat or wear."
Su Qin comforted him: "Don't be sad, although it can't be exchanged for silver, it can be a family heirloom. After all, there are not many people who can receive the emperor's commendation."
Wang Er was immediately happy when he heard this: "That's great, we are brothers. If we have a pair of brothers in the future, we will become sworn brothers. If we have a son and a daughter, we will become in-laws. We can give the things to the children as heirlooms."
Xu Chunshan held his forehead and said, "Silly boy."
Zou Tai went back and told Master Yan about it. Master Yan didn't care. It didn't matter whether it was one person or two people. The main thing was that the matter was resolved smoothly and he was happy.
After all the victims had dispersed, arrangements began to be made to return to the city, and the imperial guards that had been assembled outside the city returned to the camp.
The two hundred imperial guards that Zhao Liangchen brought out of the palace were escorting the disaster victims when they left the city. Now that the disaster victims were not going back to the prison, they were responsible for escorting Su Jijing and others.
Zhao Liangchen, who was originally in charge of leading the team, could no longer lead the team because of Zhao Jian's involvement, and became the person under custody and escort.
Because Su Jijing was seriously injured, Tong Zhongqian asked him to get on a carriage when returning to the city. As soon as he got on the carriage, his tense nerves relaxed and he fainted.
When the disaster victims and the imperial guards were confronting each other just now, he had been looking in Su Qin's direction until Su Qin mouthed to him: "Don't worry, I'm safe."
Then he felt relieved after he left with the disaster victims.
Before, he had always worried that Su Qin would be tortured if she fell into the hands of the Zhao family, but now the Zhao family was suspected and was under custody. No matter how Su Qin returned to the victims, she would be much safer as long as she was not in Zhao Liangchen's hands.
Zhao Liangchen lost his position and freedom, but he was in a very good mood. When he left the city, he was not sure at all, but very nervous and uneasy. He was mentally prepared that Su Jijing's family would still die, but he didn't expect that he actually saved them.
Not only did he save him, but he also successfully made Tong Zhongqian realize that Su Jijing was wronged. That was a complete victory.
He admired Su Qin's ability in his heart and admired her even more.
After returning to the city, Su Jijing's family, Wu Bin and others were escorted back to the Ministry of Justice prison. However, Zhao Jian and Zhao Liangchen could not detain them because they had no evidence to prove that they were involved in the prisoner exchange.
They went home temporarily. After Tong Zhongqian and Master Yan went to the palace to report the matter, the emperor ordered them to stay at home and not go out, and to respond to summons at any time.
As soon as Zhao Jian entered the house, he said to Zhao Liangchen, "Come with me."
Zhao Liangchen lowered his head and followed Zhao Jian to the study. Along the way, he was thinking about how to deal with it.
Zhao Kuo's affair was discovered, and it was obvious that Zhao Jian did it, but he couldn't let Zhao Jian be convicted for this matter now. If Zhao Jian was convicted for this matter, then their whole family would be convicted as well.
The crime of secretly replacing a death row prisoner is not a light one. His father will definitely be put to death, and if they don't die, they will be exiled.
He still has a lot of things to do. The Su family has not been rescued, and the revenge of his previous life has not been avenged. He cannot let anything happen at this time.
He was finally reborn, and what he wanted was not the death of Zhao Kuo who tried to kill him, nor the death of his father who used him, but that all the schemes of the people behind them would be in vain, leaving him with nothing and dying miserably like he did in his previous life.
While he was thinking, he and Zhao Jian had already entered the study.
After Zhao Jian sat down, he looked at him sullenly: "Why did you stop me just now?"
Zhao Liangchen knew he was talking about stopping him from killing Wu Bin. He lowered his head and said obediently, "Father, Wu Bin cannot die. Master Tong is very thoughtful. Even if Wu Bin didn't tell him about the replacement of Zhao Kuo and others, Master Tong would still find out about it later.
If my father hadn't been so upset at the time, then even if he discovered this, it wouldn't have been his fault. But once Wu Bin was killed by my father, then even if it had nothing to do with him, he couldn't get away with it. "
Zhao Jian looked deeply at Zhao Liangchen and asked, "Do you think Zhao Kuo's matter has anything to do with me?"
Zhao Liangchen shook his head firmly: "It doesn't matter, and it can't matter."
Zhao Jian kept staring at him, and he remained as obedient and respectful as he had been in the past ten years, without any doubt or dissatisfaction.
After a few breaths, Zhao Jian leaned back tiredly. "It's useless to think it doesn't matter. Zhao Kuo is a member of my Zhao family. Now that he has been rescued, Tong Zhongqian will not believe that this matter has nothing to do with me. Tong Zhongqian is a mad dog. Once he bites, he will not let go. Then our Zhao family will be guilty as well as innocent."
Zhao Jian was really worried. Originally, he could have not saved Zhao Kuo and the others, but his superiors asked him to do so, on the grounds that they all worked together. If they only pushed their own people to die, who would be willing to follow them in the future? Only by sharing life and death, and advancing and retreating together, would they have more and more allies.
Now the people have been rescued and are safe, but I am in trouble.
He had someone bribe the runners of the Ministry of Justice. Those people were not tough guys, and if Tong Zhongqian tortured them severely, they would definitely give him away.
He rubbed his brows and asked Zhao Liangchen: "Do you have any ideas?"
Zhao Liangchen thought for a moment and said, "There's a purpose for saving people. Although Zhao Kuo is a member of our Zhao family, the others are not. If father only wanted to save the clan members, he only needed to save Zhao Kuo. Since he saved so many people, it's impossible to simply conclude that father did it just because Zhao Kuo is a member of the Zhao family."
Zhao Jian: "What if someone accuses me of doing it?"
Zhao Liangchen: "Su Jijing was accused by Zhao Kuo of embezzling disaster relief funds. So was it really Su Jijing who embezzled the disaster relief funds?"
Zhao Jian narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean?"
