Chapter 111 Su Luo, the Queen of Commerce
This blatant insult was hard for Su Luo to accept. She clenched the weapon in her hand and spoke solemnly, word by word:
"My father did not commit treason!"
The Minister of War was startled by her sinister expression, but in front of the Regent, he still had to handle the matter impartially: "There is no point in saying more. Come, ask Miss Su to leave. Even if you are the number one, you cannot cooperate with the army. After all -"
He sneered and said contemptuously, "Who knows, will you leak military secrets like your father did?"
Su Zhan is the general Su Luo admires most, and he is also his father and master.
She once saw her father being hacked on half his back by enemy soldiers from the State of Yan, with blood pouring out and flesh visible to the bones.
Even with such an injury, Su Zhan did not retreat, but continued to fight with his soldiers.
Just to protect every inch of land under our feet.
Never give in.
In my memory, Su Zhan was the most loyal and brave. He defended the people with his blood.
Even died on the border land.
How could such a person commit treason?
Su Luo clenched her fists, veins bulged on her fair forehead. She took a deep breath to suppress the raging anger in her chest.
Waves of anger overwhelmed her reason, making it almost impossible for her to control herself.
"One day I will clear my father's name!" Su Luo glared at the Minister of War and turned to look at Mo Jin. "I wonder what the Regent thinks of this matter? Does he think that a minister, being the first, cannot become an imperial merchant?"
Su Luo looked at Mo Jin as if she had just met him. Her eyes were completely normal and others couldn't tell anything was wrong.
But when the two looked at each other, only they knew that this was Su Luo asking Mo Jin for help, and there was even a little pressure on her to help her.
Mo Jin glanced at the Minister of War and said calmly, "Whether Su Zhan committed treason is still questionable, but it is also true that Su Luo made her brother die for the country. So, why would Su Luo leak military secrets? Is this prejudice?"
Upon hearing the Regent's slow questioning, the Minister of War instantly felt like kneeling on the ground. His arrogance suddenly subsided, and he nodded rapidly, "Yes, yes, yes, the Regent is absolutely right. It is you, your humble servant..."
He even apologized to Su Luo: "It is you... I am prejudiced against Miss Su... I hope Miss Su will not mind..."
"Why would I mind you?" Su Luo's eyes still showed some anger as she sneered, "So, can I become an imperial merchant now and cooperate with the army to produce weapons?"
"Of course!" The Minister of War wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Shall we draw up the contract now? Quick, Master, bring me a pen."
The contract was drafted in front of Mo Jin and then signed after consultation with the Ministry of War.
Mo Jin just sat in his wheelchair, drinking tea and playing with weapons, and he clearly didn't say anything. The people below also felt the oppressive feeling of difficulty breathing, and they didn't dare to raise their heads, standing there with their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts.
Su Luo pressed the red mud with her fingertips and made a handprint.
In duplicate, witnessed and signed by the transfer department.
This identity of the imperial merchant was completely confirmed.
Next, those arms dealers who were not so good went to the Ministry of War to discuss cooperation.
Anyway, the big deal has been taken by Su Luo.
There was no point for Su Luo to stay here. There was no need to pretend to be nice to these men. They looked down on women anyway.
But it was this woman whom they looked down upon who first captured the imperial merchant.
Zhou Yan's gaze towards Su Luo also changed slightly, filled with admiration and tenderness.
I don’t know how Li Jiaojiao can compare with Su Luo!
He was truly blind and possessed before... No! He was deceived by Li Jiaojiao before! That's why he ignored Su Luo's pearls and looked at Li Jiaojiao's fake eyes.
Zhou Yan felt extremely regretful.
And he discovered that he didn't love Li Jiaojiao before.
It is more of a kind of pity and responsibility towards the child's mother.
Instead of being like he did with Su Luo, he would feel jealous, sour, and even sad when he saw Su Luo getting too close to other men.
During this period, whenever he thought of Su Luo moving back to her parents' home, his heart ached.
Just as Su Luo's carriage was about to leave——
Zhou Yan ran over without caring about his image, breaking away from his usual calmness. Without even asking Su Luo for her consent, he lifted the car curtain and rushed in: "Luo'er, come back to the Marquis' Mansion with me. Yun Ran, drive back to the Marquis' Mansion."
Yun Ran didn't say anything, but still headed towards the Su Mansion.
After all, Zhou Yan is not her master!
Su Luo glanced at Zhou Yan, folded her hands on her legs, and sat down calmly with her eyes closed. "I think I have made it very clear to the prince."
"Luo'er, my mother is now a living dead. There's no need for you to bother with a living dead person."
"You are my wife, my wife carried in a sedan chair. Now that my mother is in a coma, you should be the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, in charge of the household and taking care of the miscellaneous affairs—"
Su Luo cut him off coldly: "My business is doing so well, I'm going to go home and take care of the housework for you? Dream on."
Zhou Yan touched the tip of his nose with a dusty face and hissed, "That's not what I meant. I hope you can be a good wife and mother, so that everyone will praise you..."
"Stop the car!" Su Luo ordered.
Yun Ran exclaimed, "What's wrong?"
"Let the prince get out." Su Luo didn't even glance at Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan was stunned and asked innocently, "What did I do wrong? Luo'er, tell me."
"Who wants to be a good wife and mother? Are you insulting me?" Su Luo really found it ridiculous.
Zhou Yan quickly apologized: "I was wrong, Luo'er, don't be angry."
Su Luo had no patience for him at all, or maybe it was because she was becoming more and more mature, so she had lost the desire to pretend to someone like Zhou Yan.
There was no need for her to waste time acting with him.
only……
The teacher and the fourth brother both said that the Marquis' Mansion might be related to their father's injustice.
As the carriage drove along the streets of the Imperial City, Su Luo suddenly glanced at Zhou Yan and said in a slow voice, "If you don't make me angry, that's fine, but..."
"What is it?" Zhou Yan's face was full of anticipation.
"You need to keep your distance from your cousin in the future."
"Okay." Zhou Yan promised without hesitation, "I'll ask her to leave when I get home today and find her somewhere else to stay."
Su Luo really didn't expect that Zhou Yan's love, no matter who it was for, would go away quickly, but she was still the mother of his two children after all.
But this was a dispute between them, so Su Luo nodded: "Okay."
"Then...will you go back with me?" Zhou Yan said in a low voice, looking at her seriously.
In his nervousness, Su Luo closed her eyes and said one word: "Back."
A smile instantly spread across Zhou Yan's face.
…
In the back of their carriage.
Mo Jin sat in the carriage, watching the car heading towards the Marquis' Mansion. He stroked a piece of warm black jade in his palm and said nonchalantly, "Hit it."
"......?" Chen Song thought he had misheard.
The next moment, Mo Jin asked, "Are you deaf?"
Chen Song immediately tightened the reins and said hurriedly, "I'll charge right away!"
The horse's four hooves quickened, and "boom!" it crashed into the enemy!
Both Su Luo and Zhou Yan were frightened.
Zhou Yan was almost thrown out of the carriage!
"who!!"
