Chapter 626 Differential Treatment
Su Yu was busy all day and received a message from Xiao Jin before going to bed.
There were two letters in total, one was written by Xiao Jin, and the other was written by the two little guys.
Even though he is young, Dabao's handwriting is already very neat. The little guy told her in a serious manner what happened after she left. It wasn't anything serious, he was just sharing his daily life with her in detail.
It was a good thing for her that their lives were in a routine, proving that both children were safe.
Su Yu spread out the paper and wrote back to the two kids. Maybe it was because she had been a mother for a long time, but she talked more and unknowingly wrote two pages.
She put away the reply before opening Xiao Jin's letter.
"Su Yulun is still alive?" Su Yu was a little surprised when looking at the contents of the letter. It was said that the possibility of surviving a mine collapse at such a deep depth was extremely small. How could Su Yulun have such luck?
Only after reading the explanation at the end of the letter did she understand.
It turned out that Su Yulun sensed the other party's murderous intent at that time, so he asked someone to disguise himself as him and go down the mine.
Sure enough, an accident occurred in the mine.
Except for Su Yulun's two confidants and Xiao Jin's men, no one knew that the person in the mine was not Su Yulun.
Su Yulun's purpose of going to Kuncheng this time was not for the mine at all, but for Jinling City.
After escaping death in the mine, Su Yulun hid in Jinling City. What he had to do was to find evidence that Xiao Shijie wanted to rebel.
Now that the evidence was in hand, Su Yulun dared to show up again and cooperate with Xiao Jin to wipe out all the rebels in Jinling City.
Su Yu slowly closed the letter. She knew that it was not that simple for Xiao Jin to send Su Yulun to Kuncheng, but she didn't know when he discovered that something was wrong with Xiao Shijie.
Su Yu unfolded the paper and was about to write a reply to Xiao Jin, but after thinking about it, he still had no idea what to write. He had already written down the instructions he needed to give in the letters to Dabao and Erbao.
After struggling for a quarter of an hour, Su Yu finally put pen to paper.
After writing, let the ink dry and then hand it over to the Green Protector.
…
Xiao Jin had just returned to Fengluan Palace from the imperial study when he received Su Yu's reply. Even though Su Yu was not here at the moment, he was used to staying here at night because he could feel her presence everywhere.
"Your Majesty, the reply from the Queen has arrived."
Before Xiao Jin had time to sit down, he couldn't wait to take the letter from Zhang Shuming.
Just as I was about to look, two little heads popped in from outside the palace door.
"Daddy, did mommy reply to the letter?" Erbao stared at the letter in Xiao Jin's hand with an expression that could not be ignored.
Xiao Jin waved his hand and motioned for the two to go in.
The two little guys ran over happily, their eyes glued to the letter.
"Daddy, look quickly, look, this, this is what mom wrote to us." Erbao saw the signature on one of the letters with his sharp eyes.
Xiao Jin handed the letter to them, and the two little guys couldn't wait to open it.
There is a lot of writing in it.
Xiao Jin looked at the two full pages of paper, then at the letter in his hand, and felt some anticipation.
Su Yu’s previous replies were all very simple, so it was rare that she wrote so much this time.
Xiao Jin opened his own letter expectantly, and saw the words written on the huge piece of letter paper...
"Already read it?"
Dabao's childish voice sounded at an inopportune time.
The air froze in an instant.
Dabao was the first to react. He grabbed Su Yu's reply, pulled Erbao, who was still in shock, and ran away.
"Dad, it's getting late. I'm going to take my sister downstairs to bed first."
Before he could finish his words, the two little guys had disappeared.
Xiao Jin held the letter with a grim face and gritted his teeth.
"Su Yu, you are awesome!"
"Ha Qiu!"
Su Yu sat up from the bed and rubbed his nose, "Who is talking about me?"
"The city lord is awake." The voice of Green Protector sounded outside the palace gate.
Su Yu pinched her brows and stood up, "What's wrong?"
"Report to the city lord, Long Ba requests to see you."
Su Yu stood up and put on his clothes, and frowned when he heard this.
Long Ba had just been let down from the door a few days ago. Instead of lying in bed recuperating from his injuries, why did he come to her to show off? Shouldn't he try his best to minimize his presence at this time?
"What is he doing here?"
"Replying to the City Lord, he came to thank the City Lord for not killing him."
Su Yu sneered and asked someone to bring Long Ba in.
Long Ba was carried in, his body wrapped in cloth strips and he looked seriously injured. If it weren't for his swollen eye that was still open, Su Yu would have thought he was dead.
"Long Ba thanks the City Lord for not killing me. It was Long Ba who did this stupid thing out of confusion. Long Ba swears that he will never dare to do anything that breaks the rules again. Please calm down, City Lord."
Longba was lying on the rack, like meat about to be put on the grill.
Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, "This city lord said that if you can survive this beating, I won't care about this matter, but Long Ba, you can only make the same mistake once, and next time you won't have the chance to beg for mercy."
"Yes, yes, there will never be a next time."
Su Yu really didn't want to look at his trembling fat, so he had him carried out.
Afterwards, Su Yu sent someone to call the woman who had been captured by Long Ba's men to the palace for questioning.
Whether they are willing to continue staying at Longba's place, if not, she can make other arrangements.
The women looked at each other, and most of them were willing to stay.
"The girls are very satisfied that they have a place to stay here and enough food to fill their stomachs every day. Thank you for your kindness, City Lord."
Their innocence was long gone on the road of exile. It's not that they don't care, but compared to surviving easily, the sacrifice of this body is nothing.
Su Yu respected their choice. For the others who wanted to leave, Su Yu also had someone find a few houses for them in the area where Mengzi and his friends were staying.
Long Ba was carried back to the brothel.
There is a house behind this brothel. Originally, they were separated, but after Long Ba settled here, he connected the two places front and back and connected them into one, and he lived in the building at the back.
His men moved Longba to the bed, and he grimaced in pain.
"Are you tired of living, you little bastard? Are you trying to hurt me to death with such force?"
"Domain leader, please forgive me."
Long Ba's face turned pale. He had never been so embarrassed even when he first arrived in the Northern Wilderness.
"I saw that idiot Qiao Yang when I came back. Judging from his smug look, he must have taken advantage of me again. What a sycophantic villain!"
"The governor doesn't know, but he is now trusted by the city lord. He is asked to negotiate with the State of Jin, and he brings back a lot of things every time. Who knows how much of it he has put into his own pocket."
Long Ba's face became even uglier. He had been thinking about it when the iron mine was discovered before, and he also knew about their confrontation with Jin State and Nan State.
"Did the city lord really capture the prince of Jin?"
