"It is said that the Seventh Young Master poisoned the Emperor, and the Emperor is unconscious now!"
Su Wenzhou suddenly slapped the table, "Absurd, really ridiculous! There are so many people around the emperor testing poison, how could Xiao Qi poison the emperor?"
He was so angry that he yelled, "If you want to accuse someone, why bother?"
"No wonder the emperor didn't mobilize his troops. It turns out he was in a coma." Su Jinxun realized that this was a conspiracy, and Xiao Qi was unlucky to have bumped into it.
With the rumors of Su Yizhao's rebellion, the eldest prince had a reputation for sending troops.
Su Yijue picked up his long sword from the side, "Grandpa! They are taking advantage of the chaos to deal with Xiao Qi. If we are used to threaten Xiao Qi, then Xiao Qi will be even more passive."
"I rushed out and went to the palace to meet Xiao Qi to see what was going on. If we just surrendered, it would be detrimental to us."
Su Yijue said and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Su Wenzhou.
"If you rush out now, wouldn't that make you more convinced of the charge of treason?" Su Wenzhou said eagerly.
"Listen, people inside, you are surrounded. Su Yizhao conspired to rebel and kidnapped the emperor and the queen. If you dare to act rashly, you will be punished with the same crime."
The shouting came from outside, which seemed particularly clear in the otherwise silent night.
"Get out of the secret passage!" Su Jinxun quickly made a judgment.
Seeing that Su Wenzhou was still trying to stop him, Su Jinxun waved his hand and said: "Xiao Wu is right, we can't sit back and wait for death. We don't know what is going on in the palace now. Xiao Wu led two secret guards out of the secret passage and quickly went to the palace to talk to Xiao Wu.
Seven will meet up. As long as Xiao Qi is alive, the situation will turn around."
At this point, his father still believed in Su Yizhao, which made Su Wenzhou very angry.
It was because of Su Yizhao's sharpness that those people focused on the Su family.
"Yes!" Su Yijue did not hesitate, and was then pushed into the study by Su Jinxun and opened the secret passage.
After seeing Su Yijue off, Su Jinxun glanced at Su Wenzhou.
"Let's go! We are the only two responsible men in the house at the moment. Let's go meet them."
Su Jinxun said that when he heard the chaos in the mansion, he stopped Su Huai and asked Su Huai to appease the female relatives in the mansion.
He took Su Wenzhou towards the outer courtyard. At this time, the concierge was controlled by soldiers outside.
"Let him go, he is just a slave, why bother him?"
Su Jinxun looked at the person sitting on the tall horse. This person turned out to be the commander of the capital, Li Yurong.
The Commander-in-Chief, the Commander-in-Chief, is the highest-ranking government official in each guard post. The Commander-in-Chief, Li Yurong, is a second-rank official and is directly dispatched by the emperor.
Without the emperor's appointment, Li Yurong could not suddenly return to Beijing.
"Commander Li, do you have the emperor's order?" Su Jinxun knew that the emperor was in a coma. How could Li Yurong have the emperor's order?
"In four days, the fourth prince's crown prince ceremony will be held. Naturally, I will go to Beijing to attend the grand ceremony. This is what the emperor has promised." Li Yurong snorted coldly.
"Then bring out the emperor's handwriting!" Su Jinxun was unmoved. Even if he was attending a grand ceremony, how could he enter Beijing without a handwriting?
"Of course I will not carry the handwritten edict with me, but this has nothing to do with Su Shangshu. This time Su Yizhao conspired to rebel, and the eldest prince led troops into the palace to rescue the emperor. As the commander of the capital and in charge of the garrison troops, how can I stand idly by?
"
As he spoke, Li Yurong ordered the men behind him, "Remember! No one is allowed to come in or out, any violators will be killed first and then punished!"
"yes!"
"Li Yurong, do you dare to openly rebel? Even if you are the commander, you cannot do this without the emperor's tiger talisman."
Su Jinxun was furious and worried about Su Yizhao's situation in the palace.
Li Yurong glanced at Su Jinxun, his eyes full of contempt, and then left without saying a word, leading a team of people.
Su Jinxun was shocked. How many troops did Li Yurong bring this time? Was he going to support the eldest prince?
Just when he was about to think of a way to keep Li Yurong, a guard suddenly ran over and whispered a few words to Li Yurong. Then Li Yurong turned and looked at the Su family.
"Come here! Arrest the entire Su family, the rebellious officials and traitors."
After Li Yurong gave the order, he suddenly changed his mind.
Su Jinxun's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something happened to Xiao Qi in the palace?
A group of female relatives were already stunned in the mansion. They all gathered in the side hall in front of the inner courtyard, waiting for news from outside.
"It's not good! The commander outside said that the seventh young master is plotting rebellion and wants to arrest us all."
A girl ran into the side hall and reported in a panic.
When the old lady heard this, she slapped the table and shouted angrily: "This is unreasonable. This is just a crime. How can Xiao Qi conspire to rebel?"
If even the old lady understands it, others will naturally understand it too.
The third wife, Mrs. Ju, was very panicked. She wiped her tears and said, "What should we do? Is our Su family going to be ransacked? What should we do?"
Su Yiyuan suddenly touched his palm and said, "For the current plan, we can only expel Su Yizhao from the family. Our Su family can no longer have anything to do with him."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to him.
He coughed lightly. There was nothing to feel guilty or ashamed about at the moment.
"Grandma! Since Xiao Qi has rebelled, we should have thought of the consequences. Our Su family cannot accompany Xiao Qi to die! As long as Xiao Qi is gone, if we continue to beg for mercy, we will definitely not end up like him."
The old lady was silent and began to consider the feasibility of this matter.
"Nephew, how can you say that? You are the eldest grandson of Su, how can you be a coward? There is no way that Xiao Qi will rebel. If you can't wait to throw Xiao Qi out, what will the aristocratic family in the capital think of our Su family?"
When Mrs. Tang heard this, an unknown fire surged in her heart. Even though she didn't like this bastard, she still understood that Su Yizhao was from the Su family.
All will be prosperous, and all will be harmed! The integrity of the Su family will never allow such things to be greedy for life and fearful of death.
"Mother is right. Even if we are sent to prison, our Su family will never give in. We, the Su family, will not admit to the unfounded charges."
Su Yiliang glared at Su Yiyuan. He couldn't stand his concubine either, but it was related to the reputation of the Su family, so how could he act like this?
"Then have you ever thought about the juniors in your family? They are still young. Are they going to die in the hands of the rebels just because of such unfounded charges? Our Su family has to leave a legacy!" Su Yichu said sadly and indignantly.
These words made everyone present fall silent. Thinking of the younger generation in the family, they couldn't help but feel reluctant to leave.
"Isn't it worth sacrificing Xiao Qi to save so many lives?"
The eldest wife Liang, who had been silent all this time, also felt that her son's words were reasonable, and there was no need for them to follow Xiao Qi to death.
"Being born into a noble family, although you enjoy the glory and wealth, you also have to bear the disaster of family overthrow."
Su Yiliang's expression was unprecedented in the city, but he still insisted.
