Sun Yangxin was shocked. He looked at Su Xiaoling with self-reproach. He felt the burning pain on his face, which made him feel ashamed. But even so, he still bravely pleaded with difficulty: "The eldest prince, His Highness Prince Ming, this matter is all right."
It arises because of the guilty minister, the guilty minister is willing to be punished, and the guilty minister is also willing to suffer for his mother."
Mrs. Qin shed tears of regret. Her son had never disobeyed her in his life. His stubbornness was only for one thing.
Mrs. Qin felt regretful in her heart. If she could go back in time, she would never beat Zhou Wenjing like that. Unfortunately, there is no such regret medicine in the world.
"Master Sun is filial, but this matter is very important. Miss Su is the eldest princess whom the emperor personally granted marriage to. She has suffered an inexplicable assassination. And you, the Sun family, are the perpetrators and are all guilty. Why are you pushing and pushing?
."
Zhou Zhi's tone was sarcastic.
"They were all taken to the military prison and awaiting trial and conviction."
Zhou Zhi gave the order with a cold expression.
Mrs. Qin panicked instantly.
Zhou Wenjing was also a little panicked. None of them thought that the matter would be so serious.
Being held in custody, Mrs. Qin was pale and weak, and she made a miserable plea: "Your Highness Prince Ming, the eldest prince, my daughter-in-law Wen Jing is pregnant. She is over forty years old. This matter has nothing to do with her. Please don't arrest her. She is just a
Just a poor woman in the back house."
Zhou Wenjing is pregnant at such an old age, and her body and bones are not strong. It is bitterly cold in the prison, and the child in her belly may not be able to sit still. It is difficult for the Sun family to have descendants, and the Qin family cannot allow Zhou Wenjing to be imprisoned.
Zhou Wenjing lowered her head and could only cry.
Zhou Zhi looked at Zhou Heng, the Sun family was just the sword of the Wei family.
Is Zhou Heng willing to let Sun Yangxin go and let Sun Yangxin owe him a favor and be used by him in the future? These are all things Zhou Heng has to weigh.
"Take Mrs. Sun and Mr. Sun away for investigation. The Sun family is not allowed to travel at will until the results are released."
Zhou Heng opened his mouth. This was the first time he faced this intricate conspiracy, and it also made him understand that when dealing with things, he cannot generalize, let alone do as he pleases.
Zhou Zhi looked at him and Zhou Heng understood what Zhou Zhi meant.
He also made the most beneficial decision.
Sun Yangxin and Qin were both taken away, while Zhou Wenjing was detained in the Sun Mansion and could not travel freely. Although she was not imprisoned, her travel was restricted, which was another way of being imprisoned.
"I have arranged a carriage to take you back."
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu and spoke.
Qi Xingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, smiled slightly and said, "As long as my cousin is fine, Xiaolu, let's go home then."
Su Xiaolu nodded: "Okay."
Separate from Sun Mansion.
Along the way, neither Su Xiaoling nor Su Xiaolu spoke.
When they got home, Zhou Heng spoke to Su Xiaolu with a request: "Xiaolu, please go back first so that your third uncle and aunt don't worry. I have something to say to your sister, is that okay?"
Su Xiaolu nodded and got out of the carriage.
The carriage was very quiet. Zhou Heng spoke first: "Xiao Ling, I'm sorry, I didn't protect you."
Su Xiaoling shook her head: "This has nothing to do with you."
The harm in the dark was everywhere, and she couldn't guard against it. She was so weak. She thought about Zhou Heng's trembling when he held her, and his red eyes were like a crazy beast. Su Xiaoling's heart was full of worry and confusion. She
Is it inappropriate to walk beside Zhou Heng?
She was afraid that Zhou Heng would turn into an irrational and bloodthirsty monster because of her.
"Xiao Ling, don't go out anymore. Just stay at home. I will arrange for someone to protect you. I will send a maid to serve you. Don't go anywhere. Just stay at home, embroider your wedding dress, and wait for me to marry you.
,OK?"
Zhou Heng looked at Su Xiaoling and said seriously that he was afraid of such a thing just once.
He wanted to kill the person who hurt Su Xiaolu, but he couldn't. As long as he was still useful, he couldn't kill him no matter what kind of minister he was. If he wanted to be the emperor, the first thing he had to understand was to weigh the pros and cons.
In this iron barrel full of dangers, there is not much time for him to grow up. He is afraid that he cannot protect the people he wants to protect, and he is timid and cannot bear the consequences of losing. All he can do is to restrict Su Xiaoling
freedom, because in this way, it is easier for him to protect her.
He felt that his mind was dark and he did not dare to look at Su Xiaolu's expression. He lowered his head and said with difficulty: "Xiao Ling, I can't bear this kind of thing again. Promise me, okay? I promise, I will do it quickly."
When we become stronger, when there is no more danger around us, you can go wherever you want, okay?"
Now, now for him, don't go anywhere.
Su Xiaoling reached out and rubbed Zhou Heng's hair gently. Her voice was gentle: "Okay, I promise Brother Heng that I won't go anywhere in the future. Brother Heng, don't worry about me. Just do whatever you want to do."
Su Xiaoling didn't blame Zhou Heng for restricting her freedom, she understood his difficulties.
She was already prepared to face all the dangers with him, so how could she back down from the battle?
It's just that she doesn't go out, so that's okay. She can just concentrate on studying cooking. After getting married, she will make a lot of healthy medicinal meals and dishes for Zhou Heng to eat.
Su Xiaoling didn't have any dissatisfaction. She was as considerate as before. Zhou Heng felt a faint pain in his heart. Originally, he was supposed to make her happy, carefree, and not have to consider everything for others.
He failed to do it and felt very painful in his heart. He bit his thin lips and swore that he would make this day come as soon as possible.
"Xiao Ling, wait for me."
After Zhou Heng said this, he got off the carriage.
He walked to another carriage, which quickly left.
Su Xiaoling got off the carriage and looked at Su Sanlang, Zhao, and Su Chongsu Hua coming out. Su Xiaoling pursed her lips and said apologetically: "Father, mother, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Zhao's eyes were still red: "What nonsense do you say, as long as you're fine."
Su Sanlang looked gentle: "Let's go home."
"Just come back."
Su Chong and Su Hua didn't say much, only said one sentence.
The family returned home together.
After washing up in the evening, the two sisters fell asleep hugging each other.
Su Xiaolu suddenly said: "Sister, if you don't want to be the imperial concubine, I will take you wherever you want. We can go to my master and we can travel around the world together."
Su Xiaolu felt quite uncomfortable in her heart. Conspiracies, frame-ups, and all kinds of murders would appear in Su Xiaoling's future, not just once, but many, many times.
She felt that such days were too tiring, and she didn't want Su Xiaoling to be so tired.
Su Xiaoling smiled and said: "Xiaolu, I won't leave. I want to face it with Brother Heng. No matter what the future holds, I am not afraid. I am still young. One day, when you meet the person you like,
You will understand everything that my sister is thinking right now."
Su Xiaolu was still a little girl and didn't know what love was, so now she couldn't understand why she refused to leave even though she knew it was suffering.
