I was fucked by Zheng Ge as soon as I crossed over

What do you mean?

Is there anyone in the army?

This... the same thing has happened before.

Why is the reaction so big this time?

If it was just someone in the military, Big Daddy shouldn't be so angry, right?

Su Jinyue frowned, looked at Haodadi in confusion, then turned to look at Fusu.

It would have been better if he hadn't looked at it. When he looked at Fusu, he saw that the other party was staring at the secret letter with anger on his face. Looking closely, Fusu's eyes were already red, and there were faint tears flashing in them.

What's going on?

Su Jinyue recalled the contents of the secret letter again.

Shangjun...

Shangjun?!? Where did my eldest brother stay before he died?

Could it be that the legend of Fusu being assassinated is true?

"Father? Big brother?"

Ying Zheng took a deep breath and looked at the emotional Fusu beside him. "I have always refused to believe that my son would be so foolish as to commit suicide. Moreover, with Meng Tian's 300,000-man army at his disposal, how could he not persuade you? At least, my son must have the courage to return to the palace and ask."

Fusu looked at Ying Zheng with tears in his eyes. His long-standing grievances and self-blame finally erupted.

"Father, I don't believe it either."

Ying Zheng stood up and walked forward, patting Fusu's shoulder vigorously. "I will dig them out and hand them over to you to deal with personally."

"Okay, I thank you, Father!"

The father and son looked at each other with full of admiration.

At this moment, Su Jinyue's brain drilled between the two of them, blinking her big eyes, looking left and right, "Well, father, it must be that Liu Ji who changed the history book!"

Ying Zheng nodded, turned around and ordered, "Fifty lashes, don't let him die."

"promise!"

Outside the carriage door, Wei Lang's response was immediately heard, followed by the sound of someone jumping out of the carriage.

Oops...

Liu Ji, danger——

"Ouch~~~"

"It hurts—I was wrong. I'll eat more..."

"Ah~~ It hurts so much, stop hitting me, can't I just eat it..."

Screams rang out from the carriage at the rear of the convoy.

Liu Ji was held down on both sides by the black-armored guards, and the whip hit his calves again and again.

"I really know I was wrong. I will never throw away the medicine secretly again. Ouch..."

"Pia——"

The whip fell again.

After twenty full strokes, the black-armored guard finally stopped swinging his whip.

"Okay, for the rest, I'll draw them in a few days."

Hearing this, Liu Ji almost fainted.

It's too awful.

He will never rebel again!

He no longer felt bored of just eating and waiting to die every day.

He's good, isn't it enough that he's good...

No, the black-armored guard glanced at Liu Ji who was pretending to be dead on the couch, then stood up and walked out of the carriage.

Wait a few days before giving the injection, the imperial physician said, so there would be no need to worry about beating the patient to death.

They are so understanding...

The water is bright and clear, and the mountains are empty and rainy.

The patrol team moved along the beach again. The cool sea breeze took away everyone's fatigue. Occasionally, there were a few sun showers, making the air unusually fresh.

Su Jinyue did not expect to see Yingzi again.

That evening, Su Jinyue sat in the wheelchair newly made by the engineers, pushed by Dan, and enjoyed the breeze on the beach.

Not far away from the salt fields, Ying Zheng and his ministers walked slowly and inspected the surroundings.

Today, the size of the salt fields has doubled again. The salt workers are still dark and thin, but they smile more often.

Many salt workers have renovated their homes and some have had new children.

Although the work of salt workers is hard, the rewards are very generous. As long as these hard-working people can feed and clothe their families, they will smile no matter how hard or tiring the work is.

"Third sister, look, I caught a big fish..."

The Sixth Princess' voice came from a distance. Su Jinyue turned her head and looked. There was no big fish at all. It was only as long as a finger, and it was still a fry.

The moment she turned her head, Su Jinyue caught a glimpse of a small figure not far away.

She asked curiously, "Who is that?"

Tan followed her gaze and looked over. "She's a girl from a nearby family, right? Master, would you like to call her over?"

Su Jinyue shook her head.

The other party hesitated for a while, but walked straight towards Su Jinyue very firmly.

With a "thump", the little girl knelt in front of Su Jinyue.

"Your Excellency, I am Yingzi, and I am here to thank you, Your Excellency."

Su Jinyue was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that Yingzi was the orphan salt worker.

"Stand up and talk. How are you now? Are Cao Gong and the others treating you well?"

Yingzi nodded heavily, "My adoptive father and his family were very kind to me and even taught me how to read."

After she finished speaking, her eyes turned red and her voice was choked, "Sir, what's wrong with you, you..."

Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head, then waved at Yingzi, "I'm quite lazy and like to sit."

Pulling Yingzi's hand, Su Jinyue looked her up and down.

The little girl was wearing clean coarse cloth clothes. She had become whiter and fatter. There were still some calluses on her hands, but they felt much softer to the touch. They should be much softer if she took some more care.

"Why are you here? Do you still need to work?"

Yingzi's heart was pounding wildly. She carefully held Su Jinyue's hand back and felt like she was in a dream.

"I don't work anymore, but sometimes I come to bring food to my adoptive father and visit my uncles and aunts who used to take care of me."

Su Jinyue touched Yingzi's head and said, "That's good. You still have to learn to read well."

"Yes!" Yingzi looked at her empty hands, feeling a little disappointed, but still promised firmly, "I will definitely learn more words. When I grow up, I will go to the charity school to be a teacher and guard the ancestral temple of the adults."

"Good boy."

The dusk was heavy, and the setting sun on the horizon dyed the entire sea surface a brilliant orange-red.

The waves gently hit the shore, bringing a slightly salty sea breeze.

Su Jinyue and Yingzi looked at each other. Not far away, the sisters' silver bell-like laughter came.

"Third sister, look, all the fish I caught are for you!"

The seventh princess ran to Su Jinyue carrying a small bucket, with some sand still on her hair.

Su Jinyue leaned over slightly and looked at the small fish in the bamboo basket. They were so tiny, and there were also some small crabs and other seafood.

“Fry it, it’s crunchy!”

"Ah... not for two days?" The Seventh Princess placed the bucket next to Su Jinyue's wheelchair, then sat down on the beach without hesitation, her hands supporting her cheeks. "It would be great if we could stay like this forever."

At this time, the fourth princess also came over with a few beautiful shells in her hands.

"Su Jinyue, look at how beautiful these shells are. I picked out a few of the most beautiful ones for you."

Su Jinyue smirked, "No, I want them all!"

"You're going too far! I'll give you half at most!"

"Hahaha, I want them all!"

The setting sun gradually lowered until the last ray of afterglow completely disappeared below the horizon. The sky gradually darkened and the stars began to twinkle in the night sky.

The sisters got up from the beach, pushed Su Jinyue together, and walked back along the beach.

Yingzi watched the backs of several people and silently prayed in her heart that she would grow up quickly so that she could walk to Su Jinyue's side and always be by her side.

"Yingzi, go home!"

"Hey, godfather, I'm coming!"
