Chapter 247 The Old Case of the Liu Family



"Oh no, Su Jingxuan, do you even know how I've been these past five or six years? I've worried about your safety every day, and I've been hoping you'd come back soon."

I see that everyone who went out with you has come back, but you haven't. I have to go to Yan'anmen several times a month.

I even tried to find out about you through intelligence networks of people in the underworld, but I still didn't get any information.

I finally got a little bit of news from you, but it wasn't from you who passed it on to me. Instead, it was from other people, and their goal was to ask me for food and supplies.

If I weren't worried about your safety, if I didn't really know you were still alive, how could I have kept waiting? You think I, Luo Yunhe, can't find any other man, right?

Luo Yunhe poured out all her grievances, and even wanted to slap this damned man twice to let him know how worried and scared he had been for the past five or six years.

What's even more outrageous is that this man has already returned to Beijing, yet he still hasn't come to see me. What could possibly be so important that he insists on not coming to see me? How could he be so heartless?

Su Jingxuan, his face full of guilt, reached out and grabbed Luo Yunhe, and no matter how much she struggled, he did not let go.

Instead, she embraced him tightly, gently stroking his back to comfort him.

“I’m sorry, my wife. I know you’re in Jincheng, and I really want to come and see you. But there are a lot of spies watching us, trying to find our weaknesses. I’m afraid they’ll hurt you, so I’ve been holding back from coming to see you.”

Moreover, the Third Prince had made some deals with us at the time, so I had no choice but to endure it. I was afraid of bringing you some danger, after all, you are the most important person to me.

If those people really do something to you, I'll regret it too late, so I can only endure it. Please forgive me, my love.

Luo Yunhe was just angry, not unwilling to forgive Su Jingxuan. After learning the reason, his heart softened a little.

Although he wasn't someone those people could manipulate, Su Jingxing didn't know his own abilities, so he stopped caring.

"I knew that guy was behind this. What else did he manipulate you about? What else did he say? Did he threaten you?"

Su Jingxuan could hear the soft words in her voice. He smiled gently and then met her gaze. He nodded, a hint of grievance on his face.

"As soon as I got back, he threatened me that I wasn't allowed to see you, otherwise he wouldn't resolve my family's problems. Besides, I really wanted to know how my family members were murdered, so I... endured it. Moreover, it was also a crucial time for vying for the throne, so I had no choice but to compromise..."

"When did you find out?" Luo Yunhe asked.

After all, he had some doubts before, but when he finally learned from Madam Su Chen that Su Jingxuan was really not his son, he felt sorry for him, which is why he showed no mercy to the Su family.

"Nonsense!" Su Jingxuan told Luo Yunhe most of the things.

It turned out he had known all along that he wasn't a member of the Su family, so he had been enduring it all along, because he didn't know how he had ended up in the Su family. Where had those who had sent him away gone? How had his parents died? Therefore, he could only keep a low profile, carrying the burden of following his master day and night in dance practice, while pretending to be an ordinary person during the day.

After all, he didn't know what had happened in his family, why some had died and others were injured. He also didn't know if someone was watching him behind his back.

He endured this for over 10 years, until he became disabled. His life seemed destined to end like this, but who could have imagined that he would meet him, and that his disability would be cured?

Later, because of the conscription, he didn't have to go, but his master said that if they wanted to find out his true identity and the murderer behind it, he had to have merit and rely on the power of the imperial court, after all, the Liu family was so powerful back then.

The person who persecuted the Liu family must be extraordinary. To take them down, one must have a powerful background, which is why he embarked on this path.

Upon hearing this, Luo Yunhe felt like the clown. It turned out that he had known about this all along but hadn't told her. It turned out that everything was part of his plan, and she had been completely unaware of anything, worrying and anxious for nothing, and doing all those useless things for nothing.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he was so annoyed that he didn't even want to talk to Lu Sujingxuan anymore.

"Honey, I know it was wrong of me to hide this from you, and I apologize. I was just afraid that if you knew everything, it would attract unnecessary attention and cause you some harm."

Besides, your identity wasn't even clear back then, so how could I possibly impose my own situation on you? Fortunately, everything is about to end now, and we can finally live our peaceful lives.

Luo Yunhe shook her head: "Su Jingxuan, do you even know how anxious, sad, and worried I am when you don't tell me anything, don't let me know anything, and especially don't let me know all your plans?"

I can share your joys and sorrows, and I'm not a useless person. If you ask for anything, I can do it. Why can't you trust me? Even if you're afraid I'll get hurt, you don't even ask if I'm willing to accept your arrangements?

Su Jingxuan knew that what he thought was good was probably nothing in Su Jingxuan's eyes, after all, Su Jingxuan's abilities were obvious to all, and Su Jingxuan was well aware of how capable Su Jingxuan was.

"I'm sorry, honey. I didn't think things through and didn't consider your feelings. Please forgive me. I promise I won't hide anything from you anymore!"

Luo Yunhe pushed him away: "Su Jingxuan, you don't trust me at all. I think we need to calm down. You should leave. Don't show your face in front of me again until we've thought things through!"

Su Jingxuan was somewhat taken aback, but he also understood what Luo Yunhe was thinking.

I don't blame him for hiding it from him first, but now I can't forgive myself.

"I'm sorry, my dear wife. I know you can't forgive me right now, so I'll give you some time to think it over. However, the Liu family's case is about to be heard. The Su family has been arrested and taken to the capital; they're all in jail now. If you want to know the details, you can go to the Jingzhao Prefecture for the hearing the day after tomorrow!"
