Xiao Shengxing raised his hand and said, "Please stand up, envoy. This matter is not your fault. It is only the sinister intentions of the person behind the scenes that are to blame."
This matter was declared closed from then on.
Ye Shuyin was released from the prison and looked at the dazzling sun outside with a dazed expression.
"Miss Ye, my hard work was not in vain. You finally came out safely." Xiao Zhaolin stepped forward and asked for credit.
Upon hearing this, Ye Shuyin was stunned for a moment, then she understood and said with a touched face, "Thank you very much, Your Highness, for your kindness!"
At this moment, Xiao Zhaolin was like a savior in her eyes.
Xiao Zhaolin helped her up and said with a smile, "It's okay. As long as you're okay, I'm relieved."
On the other side, Su Lijin wrote back to the Mongolian side, implying that Xiao Zhaolin had repeatedly sabotaged her plans.
Looking at the flying pigeons, a playful smile appeared on her lips.
"Jin'er, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Shengxing walked in and looked at Su Lijin with a smirk on her face, a smile flashed in his black eyes.
Su Lijin was startled and quickly put away her expression: "Nothing, why is the emperor here?"
"Would you like to give me an explanation about that secret letter, aunt?" Xiao Shengxing said straight to the point.
Thinking of the secret letter, Su Lijin quickly explained, "That was given to me by Shiqi."
Xiao Shengxing's dark eyes turned slightly: "What is the relationship between the Queen and Shiqi?"
Hearing this, Su Lijin spoke out the words she had already prepared in her heart.
"I just saved Shiqi, so I know her."
Xiao Shengxing was amused, but remained calm on the surface, showing no intention of exposing the truth: "So that's how it is."
Su Lijin paused, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I would like to leave the palace to accompany my brother. I wonder if the emperor would allow me to do so."
Taking in her expectant expression, Xiao Shengxing nodded, "Go ahead. You and your sister haven't seen each other for a long time."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Su Lijin was delighted, bowed quickly, and immediately ran out like a bird out of a cage.
She left the palace so quickly that she didn't even take Xianxian with her, and ran all the way to the Su Mansion.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw a desolate scene.
A tall and resolute figure was laboriously pulling out weeds among the grass as high as a person. Looking at this scene, Su Lijin felt a lump in her nose and a bitter feeling in her heart.
"Brother, let me help you." Su Lijin rolled up her sleeves and started pulling out the weeds.
Su Moyuan was startled, and quickly pulled her back, pressing her onto a chair. He said with concern, "I'll let you do the rough work. Just stay put and don't hurt your hands. It will be fine in a while."
Su Lijin's eyes suddenly turned red. Her brother had always taken good care of her since she was a child, but he had died so miserably in his previous life...
Such a strong and kind person did not die on the battlefield, but died under Xiao Zhaolin's conspiracy!
Just after pulling out the weeds, Su Moyuan turned around and saw her crying. He panicked and said hurriedly, "Don't cry, don't cry. Who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll go and settle the score with him!"
When Su Lijin heard that Su Moyuan thought he was being bullied and wanted to find someone to settle the score, her tears welled up even more.
Her crying made Su Moyuan very anxious. He looked at his sister helplessly, not knowing what to do.
Su Lijin cried and threw herself into his arms. It took a long time for her tears to stop.
The memories of her previous life were too painful, and she simply could not accept her brother's tragic death.
She couldn't help but clench her sleeves and secretly swore in her heart that she would never let Xiao Zhaolin have the chance to hurt Su Moyuan in this life!
no way!
"Brother, I'm fine." After wiping away her tears, Su Lijin looked up with red eyes.
"Are you really okay?" Su Moyuan obviously didn't believe it and looked at her suspiciously.
Su Lijin forced a smile, hiding all her emotions, and said, "It's really okay, I was just too excited to see you."
"We haven't seen each other for so long."
After carefully looking at her smiling face for a while and making sure that there was nothing else unusual, Su Moyuan finally relaxed his tense nerves.
He patted her forehead gently and said lovingly, "You really scared me to death, you are such a silly girl!"
Su Lijin stuck out her tongue. At this moment, she was just a little girl spoiled by her brother.
The two of them laughed and joked for a while. Su Lijin looked around the yard and looked at the deserted Su residence. She sighed and said, "Brother, nothing is ready in the house yet. It needs to be repaired. Why don't we go to the street to eat something first?"
"Are you hungry from crying?" Su Moyuan looked at her teasingly.
Su Lijin smiled and nodded: "I am indeed a little hungry."
Su Moyuan agreed, "Well, let's go take a look at the streets. We can then buy some servants to take care of the yard. Our Su Mansion can then regain some of its splendor."
Hearing this, Su Lijin suddenly thought of something and burst out laughing. "Brother, if the soldiers saw you pulling out the weeds just now, they would probably drop their jaws in shock."
"A great general, so mighty on the battlefield, but when he comes home, he's actually pulling weeds in the yard. Tsk tsk!"
Su Moyuan was amused by her and said with a smile: "General is also a mortal, why can't he pull weeds at home? I, your brother, also led by example in the barracks and did all the dirty work."
His smile was so bright that it made Su Lijin feel warm in her heart.
"Okay, General, come walk with your sister on the street." Su Lijin smiled, took his arm, and pulled him out the door.
The two men came to the slave market. Almost all the people in the market were those who could not afford to eat and sold themselves here, or were those who were punished here.
Su Lijin looked carefully, looking at the rows of slaves, and saw that they were also looking at her.
"Hey, this one is good." She pointed to a tall slave.
Suddenly, her eyes paused. On the other side, Xiao Zhaolin and Ye Shuyin were walking side by side in the slave market.
How could they be so close to each other?
Thinking about how Xiao Zhaolin had gone to Ye Shuyin to ask questions first in the prison cell, her doubts were immediately dispelled.
She was about to look away when Ye Shuyin just happened to notice her.
Ye Shuyin narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Lijin with a very unfriendly look.
"I didn't expect that we would meet here."
She frowned and raised the corners of her mouth viciously. She was thrown into jail this time, all because of Su Lijin!
If Su Lijin had not suppressed her everywhere, why would she rush to answer the questions of the Mongolian attendants?
If she hadn't answered quickly, she wouldn't have been thrown into jail and suffered so much!
Thinking of the dark, cold and damp prison, Ye Shuyin's hatred for Su Lijin began to surge in her heart.
Su Lijin completely ignored the gaze from the other end, looked at the slave in front of her, and said with a smile: "I think, why not buy this person."
Su Moyuan, who was standing by, took a look and before he could say anything, a figure came over and stopped them, saying, "I want this slave!"
After saying that, the man looked over arrogantly and provocatively.
