Chapter 3 Death for Peace
The people followed the Su family and walked forward.
It didn't take long for them to find out what happened to the Su family.
"Why would the Su family associate with the remnants of the previous dynasty?"
"That's impossible!"
"Didn't you check it clearly?!"
You see, even the common people don’t believe the reasons they used to slander Su Weimin, not to mention that they haven’t even found any false evidence.
"The Su family is wronged!"
"Please ask the Emperor and the Empress Dowager to conduct a thorough investigation!"
“It’s unfair!”
The people spontaneously formed groups and shouted loudly on the roadside, with their voices rising one after another and continuing.
Seeing this, it was hard for Chen Nan not to be moved.
As we all know, Su Weimin's parents died tragically at the hands of the previous dynasty's secret agents, and his three brothers were also killed.
Died on the battlefield. He was the only one in the Su family who survived thanks to his superb martial arts and strategy.
Moreover, he had saved the life of the founding emperor many times, so the founding emperor once rewarded the Su family with a golden medal of immunity from death.
They actually said that such a person would collude with the remnants of the previous dynasty? !
Hey! Chen Nan was stunned and suddenly remembered the golden medal of immunity from death.
She turned her head and asked Lin Hua in a low voice:
"Where are your mother and brother?"
"What?"
"It's the second wife, Mrs. Han, and that infant young master!"
"Oh, they..."
Lin Hua thought for a moment and said, "I was sent to the farm by my cheap father a few days ago."
That's right! Su Weimin had a son in his old age. Since he was able to arrange marriages for his two daughters, he must have had a plan for his son as well.
"Is it the Zhuangzi given by the founding emperor?"
"Yes! When she left, she also brought a lot of guards and servants with her. She said she wanted... something, but I was busy looking at the account book at the time and forgot what it was. Anyway, she said she wanted to stay for a while."
Chen Nan nodded slightly and fell silent.
"Hiss!" she gasped.
My foot was caught by an anklet as thick as my arm, and my toes were twisted, it hurt so much.
Su Chengnan's original body was so thin that she had to wear this thing to walk. She would probably be crippled before she even left the city.
Lin Hua beside her was not in a much better condition. She had a bitter expression and her entire face was wrinkled.
"Sister Nan, if I walk like this, I think I'll die of exhaustion on the road."
"Say less and save your energy. I'll think of a solution."
"Yeah." Lin Hua sighed.
Chen Nan looked back at the Su family members behind him and felt that he had a long way to go!
“Hurry up!”
"Speed up ahead!"
The officers and soldiers kept urging them on. If there hadn't been so many people and the crowd was not so crowded, they would have definitely whipped them.
Chen Nan dragged his heavy feet and moved forward slowly.
At this moment, she seemed to vaguely hear...Su Weimin's voice?
The Su family members behind him instantly became excited.
"Master! That's the master's voice!"
"Master, where are you?"
"In front! In front!"
Chen Nan listened carefully.
In the area ahead, which was crowded with people, Su Weimin was indignantly expressing his dissatisfaction and narrating his grievances.
Chen Nan thought for a moment, suddenly realized his intention, and hurriedly quickened his pace forward.
"I am a loyal subject! Even the crown prince of the previous dynasty died under my sword. How dare some treacherous villain accuse me of colluding with the remnants of the previous dynasty?!"
"Grandpa! I feel guilty!"
"I failed to discover the treacherous officials in time, allowing them to disrupt the government and deceive His Majesty."
Su Weimin walked with blood dripping all the way.
Relying on his great martial arts skills, he was not afraid that the bearded man would attack him on the road, and he kept telling his grievances as he walked.
It was not until he reached the most crowded place in the imperial capital that he completely stopped and shouted loudly:
"My ancestor! Now I can only prove my innocence by dying!"
"After I die, I beg the Queen Mother to show mercy and let my whole family go."
"Ancestor! I am here."
After saying that, he ran headfirst into the statue of the founding emperor.
With a bang!
The people screamed and shouted.
The officers and soldiers wielded their swords to suppress the riot, and in the blink of an eye, people were kneeling on the ground.
Chen Nan peered through the crowd and saw Su Weimin half lying on the ground with a bowl-sized wound on his head.
The Su family was crying, and Chen Nan ran over uncontrollably.
"father!"
"Dad, don't die!"
Su Weimin drooped his eyelids and pulled the corners of his mouth:
"Don't be afraid, Nan'er..."
"From now on... you will be safe..."
He finished saying this with difficulty, and then he became completely motionless.
The people covered their faces and everyone in the Su family cried.
Someone was killed and the officers and soldiers were at a loss.
In an instant, the situation got out of control!
…
At the gate of the imperial palace two streets away, countless old ministers were kneeling and begging for mercy.
When Empress Dowager Xiao heard this, she was so angry that she started smashing things.
"That old fool! The assassin had clearly hidden the letter in the banknote box in the study, how could it disappear out of thin air?!"
"Are you sure you have searched all the warehouses?"
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, the servants and Commander Zhan have searched it, but they really can't find it... and the secret room is empty, and no will was found."
"Could it not be him? Then who else could it be..."
Empress Dowager Xiao sighed and waved her hand: "Forget it! It's better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go!"
"Yes, Queen."
Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps.
"Report!"
"My Queen Mother, something bad has happened!"
The chief eunuch beside Empress Dowager Xiao shouted angrily: "No noise is allowed in front of the palace!"
The young eunuch came crawling in: "Xiao... Xiaoyong Hou, he is dead."
Empress Dowager Xiao took a sip of tea and said calmly, "If he dies, he dies. Why panic?"
"But he... in order to prove his innocence, he crashed his head into the stone sculpture of the ancestor emperor and died! Now the people are kneeling down and unable to get up. Please show mercy to the emperor."
"presumptuous!"
"These unruly people are so bold!"
Empress Dowager Xiao smashed the teacup in her hand to the ground. The hot water splashed on the young eunuch's face, but he endured it and dared not say a word.
After a while, Empress Dowager Xiao spoke quietly:
"Humph, then forgive the Su family the crime of exile."
"But..." She changed the subject.
"If no evidence is found, then you are not allowed to take anything away! Just confiscate the Su Mansion."
"Let them leave the city, and do not return to the capital without an imperial decree!"
"Yes, Queen."
The young eunuch felt relieved and ran out of the palace with his face covered.
…
Inside the city, the people were still kneeling.
Chen Nan had just traveled through time two days ago, and the memories of her original body were still fresh in her mind, so she couldn't help but shed a few tears while holding Su Weimin's body.
"Dad! My poor dad."
"The innocent will be innocent. I believe the Queen Mother will definitely clear the Su family's name!"
The blood from Su Weimin's wound flowed down Chen Nan's palm and soon got everywhere.
But Chen Nan pulled Lin Hua to cooperate with him, and the two of them deliberately smeared things everywhere, making the scene even more tragic and pushing public opinion to the highest point.
But just when Chen Nan had no time to distract himself, a strange thing happened! !
The blood in her palm slowly disappeared?
At the same time, a faint white smoke appeared in the space...
…
In front, the young eunuch was running hurriedly.
"The Queen Mother's order!"
"The Queen Mother has issued an oral order to pardon the exile of the Su family. They must leave the city immediately and are not allowed to return to the capital without an imperial decree!"
Several concubines of the Su family smiled happily on the spot.
"Great, we don't have to go into exile."
"You don't have to suffer anymore."
Chen Nan and Lin Hua stood up holding Su Weimin's body.
She glared and shouted angrily: "Shut up, all of you!"
Several aunts quickly restrained their expressions!
They didn't expect that when Su Chengnan got serious, he would be so powerful and not look weak at all.
Chen Nan looked away with disdain. With their acting skills, they would never be able to survive in the entertainment industry.
She turned to the officers and soldiers and said:
"The Queen Mother has issued an order, why don't you quickly remove our shackles?"
"What? You want to disobey my order?"
The officers and soldiers said nothing, squatted down with dark faces, and untied everyone one by one.
Chen Nan's feet felt light, she twisted her ankle and said loudly:
"We have to bury my dad as soon as possible!"
"Everyone, set off immediately. Let's go to the imperial manor outside the city first, and then make a long-term plan!"
"Yes, Miss!"
Suddenly, a commoner who had received favors from the Su family squeezed in pushing a flatbed cart.
"If you don't mind, my young lady, I can give you a ride in my car."
"No problem! Thank you!"
Chen Nan put Su Weimin in the car.
Then he bowed deeply to the man according to ancient etiquette, but the other party dodged repeatedly.
At this time, Uncle Fu came over with the servants who had just been detained by the officers and soldiers.
When they saw Su Weimin's body, they all knelt down and kowtowed, as if they would not get up for a long time.
Chen Nan sighed.
After waiting for a while, she bent down and helped Uncle Fu up, and they stood up with sobs.
Chen Nan straightened his back, glanced at everyone, and then moved his gaze from the bearded general's face to the palace in the distance...
A tyrant ruler is in power and the world is unfair!
She must accumulate strength as quickly as possible and never allow herself to be bullied again!
"Su family, listen to my orders, let's go!!"
