Chapter 47: The Ice House
The day of execution.
The entire Su family was executed, including the eight-year-old Su Baojun, whose wails were deafening.
The butcher knife was raised and dropped!
The crying stopped abruptly, and there were heads scattered all over the ground. Blood gathered into a pool, staining the floor tiles of the vegetable market red.
It was Su Jian's turn to be executed.
The skilled executioner, holding a knife in his hand, cuts off the flesh piece by piece...
Su Jian screamed...
Death takes a long time!
It's so painful!
Su Tangyu looked at him coldly for a while, then turned and left.
She came to Yun Xianglian's tomb to pay her respects.
A glass of wine, poured in front of the grave.
"Song Meifang and Su Jian are both dead!"
"Mother, brother, I have avenged you!"
Su Tangyu knelt in front of the grave, her eyes red and her voice choked with sobs.
Perhaps because Su Zhaoyang was still alive, she did not feel the joy of revenge in her heart, but only felt infinite sorrow and heartache, and even breathing hurt.
"Mother, you can rest in peace now. In your next life, you must be happy!"
"Brother, in your next life, you must grow up healthy!"
Su Tangyu was in tears, crying and laughing.
"Cousin." Yun Zhiyi walked towards her.
Su Tangyu immediately wiped away her tears, stood up and asked him, "Cousin, why are you here?"
"I didn't see you at the execution ground, so I guessed you must be here to pay tribute to my aunt." Yun Zhiyi said, and he also knelt forward to light incense and pay tribute.
Su Tangyu looked at him quietly, and her emotions gradually calmed down.
After Yun Zhiyi finished his worship, he stood up and glanced at the maids and guards not far away. He lowered his voice and said, "Cousin, my revenge has been taken. What are your thoughts?"
"The revenge of my mother and brother has been avenged."
Su Tangyu's eyes were cold as she murmured, "My revenge has not yet been avenged."
Her last sentence was so soft, like a breeze, that it was hard to hear clearly.
Yun Zhiyi subconsciously asked, "Cousin, what did you just say?"
"Nothing." Su Tangyu smiled and shook her head, changing the subject, "Cousin, I've booked a banquet at the restaurant to celebrate. Let's go together."
Revenge has been taken, it's time to celebrate!
Yun Zhiyi nodded and agreed.
When he returned in the carriage, the maids and guards of the Prince Regent's Palace were on guard against him as if he were a thief.
Yun Zhiyi felt helpless. Even if there were no palace rules that prohibited boys and girls over seven from sitting separately, he couldn't ride in the same carriage with his cousin.
He himself came on horseback.
Yun Zhiyi rode on the horse, looking at the carriage with worry.
The Regent is too dangerous!
Too cruel!
Wait a minute, he has to persuade his cousin to get out in time after taking revenge.
Otherwise, if the regent marries the princess in the future and the princess becomes jealous, what will happen to the cousin?
My cousin is so young and beautiful, she must not waste her time in the palace!
Who knows?
Yun Zhiyi had prepared a lot of words, but when she arrived at the private room of the restaurant, she saw the Regent as soon as she entered.
The fine wine and delicious food are all served.
Xiao Jin sat in the upper seat, resting his fingers on his forehead, his handsome and cold face, his eyes closed to rest.
Hearing the voice, Xiao Jin raised his eyes and looked over.
Instantly, Yun Zhiyi felt a chill run down his spine, too frightened to look up. "Your humble servant greets His Majesty."
Xiao Jin was arrogant and noble, and simply ignored him.
He said to Su Tangyu in a lazy and casual tone, "You're back, sit down."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Su Tangyu smiled sweetly, sat down on Xiao Jin's right, and called out, "Cousin, you sit down too."
Yun Zhiyi, facing the terrifying and sharp gaze, had cold sweat on his palms and sat silently in the farthest seat.
The delicious food tastes bland.
Yun Zhiyi looked at Su Tangyu with a hidden look as she poured wine several times and served Xiao Jin, her brows furrowed deeply.
My heart aches!
He wanted to say something and do something, but he was afraid of causing trouble for Su Tangyu.
"cousin!"
Suddenly, Su Tangyu called him.
Yun Zhiyi immediately looked up with a smile on his face, "I'm here."
"Song Meifang and Su Jian are dead. My mother and brother's revenge has been avenged!"
Su Tangyu smiled and handed over a letter. "I wrote a letter home. Please ask my cousin to take it back to Jiangnan and tell my grandparents and uncle the good news."
Yun Zhiyi's smile froze on his face. Was he trying to get rid of him?
Su Tangyu suddenly remembered something, took back the letter, and asked Xiao Jin, "Prince, do you want to read it?"
Xiao Jin felt very happy when he heard this.
Xiao Yuer is getting better and better!
He is very much in love with me.
It was just a letter from home, Xiao Jin had no interest in it. "Give it to him."
Su Tangyu nodded obediently and asked Qinglan to deliver the letter to Yun Zhiyi.
Yun Zhiyi took it over with a bad feeling in his heart.
Before he could say anything, Xiao Jin's deep, cold eyes swept across him, glaring at him with disdain: "When are you leaving?"
Yun Zhiyi crumpled the envelope with his fingertips.
He thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, there are still some things to deal with. It will take about half a month."
Xiao Jin's eyes were sharp and dangerous, revealing his displeasure.
Yun Zhiyi was a little breathless and had to change his words: "Seven days!"
Xiao Jin played with the wine glass, looking imposing.
Yun Zhiyi gritted his teeth and said, "Three days!"
"Tomorrow." Xiao Jin spoke coldly and forcefully, "I will send someone to escort you out of the city."
Yun Zhiyi widened his eyes in shock and couldn't help but look at Su Tangyu.
Su Tangyu smiled at him and said, "Cousin, wait a moment. I will ask someone to send the gifts prepared for Grandpa and the others to the teahouse."
Yun Zhiyi felt frustrated and powerless for a moment.
He didn't know whether it was Su Tangyu's intention or the Regent was dissatisfied with him?
Under pressure from power, he had no choice but to bow his head and agree.
Yun Zhiyi couldn't stay any longer, so he stood up and said goodbye, leaving in a daze.
Su Tangyu glanced at him, and when she lowered her eyes, guilt flooded her eyes.
Cousin, I'm sorry.
But you have to go!
What she is going to do next must not involve her cousin and her maternal family in Jiangnan!
The sooner Yun Zhiyi leaves, the safer he will be.
"Can't bear to leave him?" Xiao Jin lifted Su Tangyu's chin and stared at her with dark and displeased eyes.
Su Tangyu shook her head and said, "No, my cousin can still come to visit the palace in the future."
Xiao Jin snorted softly.
He ran his fingers across her chin and gently pinched the soft flesh of Su Tangyu's cheek. His tone was cold and possessive, "What if I don't want you to see him?"
"Then I'll disappear." Su Tangyu smiled faintly and rubbed Xiao Jin's palm obediently and softly.
Xiao Jin benefited greatly from it.
There was no one else in the room, so Xiao Jin stretched out his hand and pulled Su Tangyu to sit on his lap.
He put his arm around Su Tangyu's waist, his tone pleasant and lazy: "Xiao Yu'er is so good, what reward do you want?"
"Your Majesty, I want to go out."
After being stopped by Gu Mingyan last time, Xiao Jin was angry and Su Tangyu lost her freedom to go out again.
Wherever she goes, she must first seek Xiao Jin's consent.
She is like a bird in a cage.
With her wings tied, she could not fly out of the luxurious and noble Regent's Palace and could only wait obediently for the emperor's visit.
Su Tangyu bent down, leaned on Xiao Jin's chest, and said in a sweet and flattering tone, "Your Highness, the weather is so hot, and it's so uncomfortable to be stuck in the palace."
"It's hot, so we should stay at home to escape the heat."
Xiao Jin's eyes were dark and cold. "How about I build you an ice house?"
Su Tangyu choked.
In ancient times, beauties were hidden in golden houses. Now it’s Xiao Jin’s turn, should he hide her in an ice house?
Well, Su Tangyu was just testing.
She will slowly think of a solution, and Su Zhaoyang will entertain her, so there is no rush!
"Xiao Yu'er?" Xiao Jin urged her.
Su Tangyu raised her head and kissed Xiao Jin's jaw, her voice sweet, "Okay, thank you, Your Highness."
