"puff--"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

"Xiao Shunzi, call the imperial physician quickly!"

“…“

The bad news hit the old emperor like a bomb. He finally couldn't bear the blow, spurted out a lot of blood, and fainted again.

At this time, the Prime Minister's Mansion was in chaos.

When they woke up early, the prime minister's mansion was in ruins, and the servants were shocked.

I've seen thieves before, but I've never seen such a heartless thief.

Not only were all the large furniture in the hundreds of rooms in the prime minister's mansion gone, but even the tiles, bricks, and gems inlaid on the screen walls had been pried away.

It can be said that there is not a single valuable thing in the entire prime minister's mansion.

Xiaodun, who had gone to Su Qingyin's yard to change shifts early in the morning, saw a naked man hanging on the wall as soon as he entered the door. He quickly called a few guards to carry the man down.

Seeing that the woman had a good figure but her face was full of rashes and unevenness, the guard thought that it was some unruly woman who had mistakenly entered the Prime Minister's residence, and they discussed throwing her out.

But at this moment, Su Qingyin's eyes narrowed and she suddenly jumped up from the bed. Seeing that she was naked and being seen by the guard, she immediately felt dizzy and screamed loudly.

"ah--"

Hearing the familiar voice, several servants realized that it was the Second Young Miss, and they quickly lowered their heads and dared not look any further.

Su Qingyin's reputation is now completely gone.

There was not a single piece of clothing to be found in the whole house for her to wear, so she had to let her son take off his clothes and put them on her first.

Su Qingyin stared in amazement at her magnificent courtyard turned into ruins overnight, and before she could catch her breath, she touched her face, which was wrinkled and covered with pimples, and immediately the blood rushed to her head, spurted out blood, and fainted.

Qingfeng Courtyard. Su Chengzhi blinked his squinting eyes after waking up, and was instantly excited after seeing the surrounding environment clearly.

"Hey hey hey~ These little goblins really know how to have fun. This time they changed the scene to a slum? Hehe, so exciting! I like it!"

After saying that, he grabbed a naked kid beside him and bit him hard for a few seconds.

Just as he was preparing to fight the other boys for another 300 rounds, a little maid suddenly came to the door and reported:

"My lord... My lord, something bad has happened. The Prime Minister did not return home last night, and the Prime Minister's residence has been ransacked!"

Su Chengzhi felt as if he was struck by five thunderbolts, and was stunned like a wooden chicken.

"You...what did you say? This is the Prime Minister's Residence? This...this is my Qingfeng Courtyard?!"

After shaking his messy head, he finally remembered what happened last night. He suddenly jumped up from the bed and shouted:

"Then what are you guys still doing here? Why don't you go and ask Daddy to report this to the police?!"

"Who were the people guarding the gate last night? A bunch of rubbish! Hundreds of people can't even guard a yard! Get 50 lashes from them, all of them!"

Not yet satisfied after saying that, he kicked Cui'er, the little maid who came to report the news, to the ground.

"Why don't you go get me some water to wash up? Where's my breakfast? Who dared you to let me go hungry?!"

"You idiot! If you keep acting so stupid, I will sell you off!"

Cui'er felt such pain in her heart from the fall that she could only endure it and crawled back away.

As a result, she searched the entire Qingfeng Courtyard but couldn't find even a single grain of food.

Fortunately, the tiger penis that was specially stewed for the prime minister in the kitchen last night had not been used by anyone. 껩 did not think much and hurriedly sent it to Su Chengzhi.

Su Chengzhi didn't take the theft of the prime minister's residence seriously. No matter how big the matter was, his father would take care of it.

At this time, he was sitting against the wall, with a few servants massaging his shoulders and back.

Seeing Cui'er coming in, he snorted coldly, and drank the whole pot of tiger penis soup in a few seconds.

After drinking it, he took a sip and still felt that he was not full. He kicked Cui Er viciously and knocked her to the ground.

"Why don't you go find some more food! Do you think you'll starve me to death with just this little food?!"

"ah--"

The next moment, Su Chengzhi felt a heart-wrenching pain in his lower abdomen. He let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, and then he fainted with his eyes rolled back.

For a while, there were screams in the courtyards of the masters in the prime minister's mansion, and the servants were busy and exhausted.

Fortunately, I heard the news that the Prime Minister had returned not long after.

Everyone seemed to have suddenly found a savior, and they ran to the front hall crying and shouting, hoping that Prime Minister Su could bring justice to everyone.

But when they arrived at the front hall, they saw Su Bingsheng, like a frost-bitten eggplant, with his head drooped, being escorted back by hundreds of imperial guards.

The old emperor was worried about having no money to spend after his private treasury in the palace was emptied. Last night, he saw the huge amount of money recorded on the evidence that Su Qingning scattered in the council hall, and his eyes lit up.

There was no time to verify the facts before Prime Minister Su and several related officials were sentenced to confiscation of property and exile.

The deputy commander of the imperial guards thought that this confiscation of property was a lucrative job. Not only could he make some money, but he could also present the seized treasures to the old emperor as a reward.

But when I walked in, I found that the Prime Minister's Mansion was even cleaner than the current Imperial Palace.

After searching the entire mansion, the only valuable item was the copper pot used to stew tiger penis for Prime Minister Su.

The deputy commander was so angry that his rage was raging. He immediately had Su Bingsheng dragged away and given fifty lashes.

Seeing that Shen, Su Qingyin and Su Chengzhi were still unconscious, they looked unhappy. They were immediately poured cold water to wake them up, and then they were quickly escorted to the city in prison clothes.

Therefore, after Su Qingning and his companions were escorted to the city, they saw the Su family members who were all in a very sick and ferocious state.

Su Bingsheng's face turned pale, and he could only walk one step at a time in an extremely strange posture.

Even if he exerted all his strength, he still walked much slower than a normal person and was whipped from time to time.

The Xiao family members were very surprised when they saw the Su family members.

I thought that we were all connected by the same fate, and seeing the Su family in such a miserable state, my face was filled with pity.

As a result, before everyone had time to go to the Su family to say hello, they saw that their eyes were as vicious as snakes and scorpions, as if they had seen a foreigner.

The Xiao family immediately remembered the rumors that Prime Minister Su favored his concubine and killed his wife, and abused his legitimate daughter. They all stood up to protect Su Qingning behind them, and glared back at the Su family fiercely.

Xiao Huaishuo was frightened when he saw the murderous looks in the Su family's eyes.

One can guess with one's toes what kind of miserable life Su Qingning led in the past.

He took Su Qingning's hand, squeezed it comfortingly, and then protected her behind him.

The two people's eyes met, and everything was said without words.

Su Qingning felt warm at heart as she watched the Xiao family members protecting her. She felt more and more that her decision to stay was the right one.

This old emperor probably damaged his brain from taking too many elixirs, and this time he sentenced more than a dozen families to confiscation of their property and exile.

Hundreds of people gathered at the city gate, waiting for their relatives and friends to say their final goodbyes.

The road to exile is always very difficult, and many people were depressed. As they talked, they couldn't help crying with their families. The crying was deafening, and the city was filled with a desolate scene.

Xiao Huaishuo was keenly aware that many of these people looked at them with malicious eyes, and he knew that this road of exile must be full of sinister calculations.

Then he and his fourth brother Xiao Huaijin looked at each other, and they moved their bodies tacitly to protect the female family members behind them.

Although my mother Zhang Qinxue and my eldest sister-in-law Li Xuanyi were born in wealthy families, their natal families were from southern China. My second sister-in-law Jiang Xinyue was an orphan without a mother.

When the distant relatives in the capital learned that the Xiao family was convicted, they were all afraid of being implicated and tried to avoid them as much as possible.

Therefore, compared to the bustling crowd, this place seemed much quieter. The Xiao family members all watched their surroundings and waited quietly for the official's order to set off.

But at this moment, an excited shout came from behind:

"Ningning! Hey - my dear Ningning, grandma finally sees you! Hey - why are you so thin? Come here and let grandma take a good look at you!"
