Su Yunqiang held back the tears in his eyes and hurriedly pulled his brother Su Jinshen out of the Su Mansion.

Her heart felt like it was being weighed down by a heavy stone. She was panicked and confused. Her mind was filled with her father's resolute and reluctant words and her mother's face as she tried hard to hold back her tears.

In his father's study, his face was serious and filled with endless sadness. He lowered his voice and said to them, "Yun'er, Jinshen, our family has been framed. Now disaster is imminent. Don't worry about anything else. Go out through the small door behind the study. I've already arranged a carriage there. Get in and run as far as possible. Don't come back. Go!"

Su Yun's eyes were red and she wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing her father's unquestionable eyes, she bit her lip, pulled Su Jinshen, who also had a terrified look on his face, and ran quickly towards the small door in the direction her father pointed.

After they went out of the small door, there was indeed a carriage parked there. When the coachman saw them coming out, he hurriedly asked them to get in. After Su Yun pulled Su Jinshen into the carriage, the coachman waved the whip and the carriage galloped away.

The carriage bumped along as it moved forward. Su Jinshen clutched the corner of Su Yun's clothes tightly, crying as he asked, "Sister, are we really leaving like this? What will happen to our father and mother?"

Su Yun had tears in his eyes, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Jin Shen, since father wants us to go, he must have a plan. Let's escape first and then find a way to save them later."

However, the carriage had not run far when it heard a loud sound of horse hooves from behind, as if a large number of people and horses were chasing them.

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat. He lifted the curtain and looked back. He saw a group of people in official uniforms on horseback chasing after him at lightning speed. The man in the lead had a tall and straight posture, like a pine tree, and his imposing demeanor exuded a majesty that was hard to ignore.

Looking closely at his face, he was truly handsome, as if God had poured all the spiritual energy in the world into carving it carefully.

Her eyebrows are like distant mountains covered with dark clouds, and her eyes are as deep as a deep pool, but they are shining with brilliance inadvertently, as if they hide thousands of stars. Just a glance is enough to capture people's heart.

Under the high nose bridge, the slightly pursed thin lips have a perfect curve, which adds a different charm when they seem to be smiling.

The dot of cinnabar between his eyebrows was like a stroke of genius, adding a touch of mystery and charm to his peerless face, making him look not only heroic but also otherworldly and ethereal.

Coupled with the well-tailored official uniform, he looked even more majestic and elegant, with nobility and grace evident in his every move, as if he was supposed to be the most dazzling existence in the world. Anyone who saw him would be impressed by his grace and demeanor.

It was Fu Yichen.

Fu Yichen took the lead and quickly caught up with the carriage. He shouted, "Miss Su, Mr. Su, I'm sorry, none of you can leave today."

As he spoke, he signaled the officers and soldiers around him to surround the carriage.

Su Yun leaned forward, glared at Fu Yichen, and demanded, "Who are you? Why are you stopping us? What heinous crime did my Su family commit to deserve such annihilation?"

Fu Yichen replied expressionlessly, "I am only following orders. Miss Su, please do not embarrass me. The crimes committed by the Su family will be decided by the emperor. You should just surrender now."

The brother and sister were ruthlessly taken back to the Su Mansion.

Su Yun's parents saw this and were about to ask, but at this time, there was another noise from behind, and more soldiers rushed over and surrounded them.

Then, a shrill voice shouted: "The imperial edict has arrived—"

Everyone hurriedly dismounted and knelt to receive the order. The eunuch unfolded the imperial edict and read it aloud: "By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Minister Su Xing has formed a clique for personal gain, embezzled and perverted the law. His crimes are unforgivable. I hereby order the confiscation of his property and the exile of his entire family to the frontier. This is my decree!"

Su Yun felt a buzzing in his head, and despair and resentment surged in his heart, but under the imperial power, he was powerless.

When Su Xing and Yang heard the contents of the imperial edict in the Su Mansion, their faces turned pale. Yang collapsed to the ground, crying, "Master, what should we do? Our Su family has been loyal for generations. How can we be slandered like this?"

Su Xing was also shaking with anger. He looked at the scene in front of him and thought of his two children who had not been able to escape after all. He was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pu" sound and then fainted on the ground.

"Father!" Su Yun exclaimed, tears welling up in her eyes. She wanted to rush back to the Su Mansion, but was stopped by the soldiers.

Su Jinshen was also frightened and burst into tears, and the whole scene suddenly fell into chaos.

Seeing this, Fu Yichen frowned even more tightly. He said to the people around him, "Go and get a doctor quickly. Don't let anything happen to Lord Su."

After a while, the doctor hurried over. Fu Yichen asked the officers and soldiers to maintain order while anxiously saying to the doctor, "Please check on Lord Su quickly. We must save his life."

The doctor hurried forward and carefully examined Su Xing. After a moment, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up and said, "Sir, this is due to anger and blood attacking your heart. You need to be well taken care of. However, now you are facing exile and this bumpy journey, I am afraid it will not be good for your condition."

Fu Yichen's face was solemn. He looked at the unconscious Su Xing, and then at Su Yun and his sister, whose faces were covered with tears and eyes were full of hatred. He felt mixed emotions, but he could only follow the order and continue to carry out the subsequent confiscation of property. He just hoped that the Su family could survive this journey.

Su Yun stayed beside her father, holding his hand tightly, her eyes full of determination. She secretly swore that no matter what, she must protect her family's lives, and find a way to find out the injustice behind it. She must not forget the task of the recycling system mall that has not yet started. This may be the only hope for the Su family to turn things around.
