Her skin is fair, so she doesn't need to wear makeup.
Yu Shuo naturally wouldn't object; in his eyes, his Su Su looked good no matter what.
The two held hands and went to have breakfast, after which they went their separate ways.
Luo Zhi and Tuoba Yan had already boarded another carriage, while Qin Su, carrying Yuan Yuan, was in the first carriage. Next, they would go to pick up Qin Zhi.
Heshan Academy was extremely famous in Da'an, and students from all over the country considered it an honor to enter it. Initially, Qin Su planned to send Qin Zhi there, but later she heard that Heshan Academy did not allow backdoor admissions.
Even princes and nobles had to pass a rigorous academic examination to be allowed to go.
Qin Su gave up on the idea, as she had never intended for Qin Zhi to necessarily become the top scholar in the imperial examination.
Unexpectedly, in just six months, Qin Zhi actually passed the entrance exam for Heshan Academy. After that, Qin Su was too busy and didn't pay attention to it anymore.
It was Qin Zhi's own hard work that made him stand out.
Heshan Academy has indeed cultivated many talents. One-third of the civil officials in the imperial court are graduates of Heshan Academy, the most famous of whom is Imperial Tutor Cen.
The Cen family has been imperial tutors for generations, and each generation has had to rely on their own abilities to enter Heshan Academy.
It can be said that the Cen family is the living advertisement of Heshan Academy.
Even if no one in the Cen family becomes an imperial tutor, they can choose to become a teacher at Heshan Academy; in short, it's a prestigious position.
There was no such academy in Quegu, which made Tuoba Yan extremely curious about the so-called Heshan Academy, and he kept looking at it along the way.
Outside the carriage.
"It's said that someone from the Duke of Cheng's mansion was beheaded and displayed to the public today. Go and see!"
"I'm planning to go too. These traitors should die!"
"Damn it! Does His Majesty not treat the Duke of Cheng's family well? Why does he have to betray the country and collude with the enemy?"
"..."
Qin Su stopped the carriage, and Chongyang's voice rang out from outside, "Madam?"
Qin Su handed Yuanyuan to Lian Tao and said, "I'll go down and take a look. You guys go to the academy first."
She got off the carriage and followed the people toward the Meridian Gate.
In her past life, Xue Huai'an was the main culprit in harming her, but no one in the Chengguo Duke's mansion was innocent. Even though she knew what their fate would be, she still wanted to see their end with her own eyes to feel any satisfaction.
However, the beheading was scheduled for noon, so it would be a long time before it happened.
She saw from afar the constables escorting the people from the Duke of Cheng's mansion. They were all in cages, their expressions numb, as if they no longer believed they could escape.
Qin Su said in a low voice, "Yes, besides Xue Huai'an, who else in the Duke of Cheng's mansion can shoulder this responsibility?"
If she hadn't killed Xue Huai'an back then, she might have worried that Xue Huai'an would come up with some way to fake his death and escape.
Now that she's left with just a bunch of rabble, she has nothing to worry about.
We walked all the way to the Meridian Gate, but it was still quite a while before noon.
Qin Su was stunned for a moment when the executioner came out.
The newcomer wore a black cloak, and his handsome face seemed to belong to another world.
He truly isolated everyone just by standing there.
...Was Yu Shuo the executioner?
Yu Shuo was stunned when he saw Qin Su in the crowd, but he quickly realized that it was normal for Qin Su to be there.
But what about Yuanyuan?
Didn't she take Yuanyuan with her too?
Yu Shuo glanced at the sky. It was still early, at least an hour before noon.
But it would probably be too late to go to Heshan Academy at noon.
Yu Shuo glanced at the people from the Duke's mansion and tossed a token out of the bucket.
Everyone was stunned.
Is this a premature decapitation?
This has never happened before.
The executioner was also stunned for a moment, but he knew he had no right to question, so he took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the blade.
The previously numb Li seemed to see Qin Su and struggled to say, "There's still more than an hour left! Why should we be beheaded now?"
"Qin Su, you bitch! Did you do something?"
With her eyes numb and lifeless, Chen Yirou immediately looked around when she heard the name "Qin Su". When she saw Qin Su, she tried to crawl over, but was held down by someone.
"I am not a member of the Duke of Cheng's mansion. Let me go. I have not done anything to harm you."
At this moment, Chen Yirou actually wanted to survive.
But how could that be?
She must die unless Xue Huai'an writes her a letter of divorce.
"Qin Su, you'll die a horrible death! You slut, you'll die a horrible death! Your whole family should go to hell!"
Yu Shuo said in a deep voice, "Make your move!"
The executioner dared not delay; he immediately targeted the Li family.
As her head rolled off, blood splattered everywhere. Chen Yirou screamed uncontrollably and then fainted.
Qin Su: "..." She really got off easy.
You don't even have to feel pain if you get dizzy.
Even so, Qin Su did not move an inch, she watched as the people from the Duke of Cheng's mansion were beheaded.
Chen Yirou was the last one.
Yu Shuo had Chen Yirou woken up before beheading her.
The people also realized that there must be a personal grudge involved in this beheading, otherwise why would the time be brought forward?
This cannot be done in advance.
But then I thought about it again and realized it wasn't a big deal. After all, these were traitors! These people deserved to die anyway, and it didn't matter when they were beheaded.
The entire scene was a sea of crimson.
As Yu Shuo stepped down from the stage, a drop of blood brushed against the edge of his cloak, but he didn't notice it himself.
"Shall I take you to the academy?" Yu Shuo was worried that Qin Su would be frightened.
Although she was indeed very brave, she caused the deaths of many people.
The Duke of Cheng's family claimed to have exterminated nine generations of their relatives, but in reality, it was the masters who died, while the servants were exiled.
Qin Su looked away, took Yu Shuo's hand, and smiled, "I'm fine. I'll find a horse and go there myself in a bit."
The two men attracted the attention of many people, but none of them dared to say anything.
Perhaps someone will deliberately smear this incident today, but Qin Su doesn't care.
After seeing Yu Shuo off, Qin Su found a horse and headed towards Heshan Academy.
The snowy wind blowing on Qin Su's face also helped clear her mind.
He died.
They're all dead.
Qin Su knew that he couldn't let his killing intent get too strong; he had to calm it down, otherwise the poetry gathering would definitely frighten the children.
She calmed herself down.
Fifteen minutes later, she smelled blood, her heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly rode over. A blinding red spread across her eyes; the dead were all assassins dressed in black.
No, that's not right. There are also people Qin Su brought from the Prince's Mansion inside.
She hurriedly dismounted and rushed to check the body, worried that she might see someone familiar inside.
Those who went to Heshan Academy this time, apart from Qin Zhi and Tuoba Yan, all have the ability to protect themselves, so they should... should be fine.
Round...
She looked around and only breathed a sigh of relief when she couldn't find anyone she knew.
Qin Su mounted his horse and rode away following the trail of blood.
She moved much faster than before, her shoulder wound throbbing slightly, but she was in a hurry, desperate to find Qin Zhi and the others. Even though she knew they were probably alright, she still wanted to see them with her own eyes.
