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

Zhao Liangchen: "I'm not planning on doing anything right now. I don't want to fall out with my father yet, and we don't have the strength to fight them, so I plan to act as if nothing happened and continue to play the role of a good son to my father."

Zou Tai: "But according to what you said, Zhao Kuo and others might really have been replaced by your father. Now that the truth has been revealed, it will be difficult for him to escape the blame. Master Tong's ability is not something that ordinary people can fool. If your father is convicted, you will definitely be implicated."

Zhao Liangchen: "My father will be fine. It's easy for them to find a scapegoat to replace my father. When I left the house, my good mother had already returned to her parents' home to pass on the message. I think it won't be long before new evidence appears from Master Tong."

Zou Tai took a deep breath and asked, "Is your mother also involved in this?"

Zhao Liangchen said disdainfully, "If it weren't for her intermediary, how could my father, a mere warrior, have caught that person's eye, and how could his official career have been so smooth?"

Zou Tai nodded in agreement. "Indeed, the civil officials have always looked down upon us military commanders. Since your father is fine, you will be fine too. So, what brings you here today?"

Zhao Liangchen: "I have two main things to do today. The first is that I am under house arrest now. You are the most useful person to the emperor. I am afraid that they will take advantage of you, so I want to give you a warning.

The second is to help the disaster victims outside the city."

Zou Tai asked in disbelief, "You want to help the disaster victims? Do you know how many victims there are outside the city? What can you do with your meager money? You can't even afford a meal of porridge for the disaster victims."

Zhao Liangchen pulled out a banknote from his pocket and said, "Not all of it. Didn't we capture a lot of disaster victims who entered the city a few days ago? I want to give them some compensation.

Because I arrested the wrong people, I couldn't find the disaster relief money and the victims didn't receive help for a long time. They came to the city because they were desperate and wanted to find a way to survive, but I didn't help them and arrested them all, causing them to suffer a lot. I feel guilty about it.

The day after tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. Many of them have lost their families and cannot be reunited with them, so I want you to help me send some food, clothing and daily necessities to the victims we captured to make up for the guilt in my heart."

Zou Tai looked at Zhao Liangchen strangely: "Why do you take all the blame on yourself? You even blame yourself when the disaster victims were caught entering the city without permission. Is this really your fault?

The order came from the court, and we were just doing what we had to do. Those refugees were desperate and could do anything. If they stole something after entering the city, that's fine, but we're worried they might commit other acts of arson, murder, and looting, disrupting public order. It's only right for us to arrest them. Why do you feel guilty about this?"

Zhao Liangchen shook his head sadly: "That's different. If I hadn't arrested the wrongly accused Lord Su and others, I might not have felt guilty. But now I almost caused so many people to die in vain, and I feel very guilty.

Whenever I think about how Lord Su and the others were almost executed today, my heart aches so much that I can't breathe. I currently don't have the ability to rescue Lord Su and the others, so I can only help the victims I have captured to make myself feel better.

I am now under house arrest and cannot leave the city. You are the only one who can help me, Zou Tai, please help me."

As Zhao Liangchen spoke, his eyes turned red again and tears flowed down his face uncontrollably.

Zou Tai stared at Zhao Liangchen, whose eyes were red with tears, in amazement. He then tried to wipe Zhao Liangchen's tears helplessly: "No, don't cry. I can't help you. Ouch, it's killing me. A tough guy is crying. Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Zhao Liangchen, who was originally expressing his true feelings, was almost choked by Zou Tai's words "a tough guy crying": "Ahem, stop wiping it, I won't cry anymore."

Zhao Liangchen awkwardly slapped Zou Tai's hand away. He cried because he was really upset, and also to make Zou Tai help him willingly. He was a thick-skinned person, and if he hadn't made the matter sound serious and not taken it seriously, who would have known that he would cry in response to his call of a tough guy.

Hearing this, he felt like dying and secretly swore that he would never cry in front of anyone again.

Seeing Zhao Liangchen finally returned to normal, Zou Tai breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "You can help me, but we have arrested so many people, if not a hundred, at least eighty, how can I remember who they are? Even if I remember so many disaster victims outside the city, where can I find them?

Besides, there are so many disaster victims outside the city. If I give something to someone, they will be targeted. If they rob me, then I won’t be helping them, I will be harming them.”

Zhao Liangchen pondered for a moment and said, "The victims all live together in groups. You don't have to give it to one person alone. You can buy some food and blankets and give them to a group of people. With more people, they won't be robbed.

As for who to give it to, there are so many people that you haven't made a deep impression on many of them. We just sent those people out of the city this morning, so they should be easy to find. The government office should also have their identity records."

Zou Tai carefully recalled who he had arrested, but he couldn't remember many. Finally, he slapped his thigh and said happily, "I can't remember others, but I remember that bastard very well."

Zhao Liangchen was startled when he heard the word "Wangbajing". How could a good girl like Su Qin be called a "Wangbajing"? Judging from the way she glared at Zou Tai today, it was obvious that she had already held a grudge against him. She was such a smart person, and who knew how she would take revenge on Zou Tai in the future.

I hope that this time Zou Tai will give her more things to reduce the resentment in her heart.

He cleared his throat and said in a reproachful tone, "Why are you still calling him a bastard? That's really disrespectful. When you see him outside the city, don't call him that."

Zou Tai remembered that Su Qin had glared at him today, and immediately became furious: "What's wrong with me calling him that? Does he dare to challenge me? If I find this guy tomorrow and give him something, he will be so grateful to me that he will have to agree even if I call him a bastard."

Zhao Liangchen frowned and thought to himself, you can try. If you can come back safe and sound, I will admit defeat. How can a woman who can confront so many men in prison with an axe be easy to mess with?

But even though I was thinking this in my heart, I said, "I asked you to appease them, not to make enemies. Don't go too far. They already have nothing and it's pitiful enough. That pot might be their only possession. Don't rub salt into their wounds."

Zou Tai was a thick-skinned man with a lot of bad mouths, but he wasn't the type to bully others. Zhao Liangchen tried to persuade him, and he nodded readily, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Since you're speaking up for him, I'll definitely give him more food when I find him tomorrow."

Zhao Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief as his goal was achieved. Today, he had lost all his face and cried twice so that the Su family and Su Qin could suffer less. He didn't know how his brothers would look at him in the future.

He stood up and said, "Okay, I'll leave tomorrow's matters to you. I'm leaving now."
