General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C141
Su Zhi raised her head, and continued to explain with a serious look, “Think about it, if this military salary could be collected in a short period of time, then it would mean that the person behind this is rich and powerful. Why did soldiers rebel? It was because he was hungry and had nowhere to go. Furthermore, with you leading a group of people to reverse the situation, no one would dare to risk their lives to obtain that grain. If someone were to offer a high price to buy them off, what would the result be? ”
People die for money, and birds die for food. Since they have enough money to live, and they can also avoid being beheaded, no one can resist that temptation.
“Thus, from the very beginning, the Emperor ordering you to reverse the situation was a fatal mistake.”
If it hadn’t been for Xiao Qian, the rebel soldiers wouldn’t have missed their target so quickly. The title of Gui Sha and Yan Luo was enough to make anyone tremble in fear, especially his former subordinates.
As a result, in order to escape as soon as possible, the leader of the rebellion could be bribed and hidden away in the corners of the world or even overseas. Under such circumstances, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
After the time limit was up and no one was able to hand it over, the Zhao Family had more than a hundred ways to put Xiao Qian to death.
Su Zhi felt a lingering fear just thinking about it. If the Emperor really blamed the Zhao family and added fuel to the fire, then Xiao Qian’s situation …
“General, I’m afraid you won’t be able to find those three. It’s best to make other plans as soon as possible.”
After this analysis, Xiao Qian quickly understood.
He had fallen into the net that Zhao had weaved when he had listened to his orders to put an end to the rebellion.
It was rumored that he had been hurt only to confuse him, to let the common people spread the word, to create the illusion that he was the one who had done the deed. His real purpose was simply to take this opportunity to get rid of him.
Not bad, not bad. This was the true ability of the third young master of the Zhao Family.
Su Zhi’s heart burned with anxiety. Seeing that he was still grinning, she could not help but mutter, “You’re still in the mood to laugh at a time like this? There are times when you cry when the knife falls to your neck. ”
Xiao Qian raised his eyebrows, took her into his arms and comforted her, “Don’t worry, I won’t be so useless. I’ve seen the corners of the imperial court, so I can’t think of any way. ”
“Then what are you going to do?”
He kissed the girl’s hair in his arms and replied carelessly, “We’ll do whatever we need to do. There’s always a way.”
Su Zhi didn’t know if Xiao Qian said this to comfort her, or if he really had a plan. In short, she felt an indescribable sense of insecurity, and felt that something big was going to happen this time.
There was a slight awkwardness in the ruckus at the Palace. Although everyone had dispersed, this matter had somehow reached Emperor Wei Wu’s ears.
After hearing the news of Xiao Qian entering the palace, the first thing he thought of was that the traitor had been found.
However, General Xiao took a stroll around the palace. He didn’t enter the palace and instead quarreled with An Yang outside the palace hall before leaving with a mysterious woman.
“Humph!” Just what kind of woman could make the princess come to the empress dowager personally, and even cause that little brat Lu Huan Zhi to wade through muddy water? ” He truly didn’t have his eyes on the monarch anymore. He came to the palace and wandered around without even saying hello.
“Go and find that girl for me. I want to see what kind of girl could mesmerize my left and right arms.” The traitors left, the barracks left, and they went to the palace.
Lu Kui threw the paper slip that he had seen half in his hands onto the ground, then called a servant by his side to invite Su Zhi to the palace.
“Your majesty, that woman is probably still on her way back to Xuan City, so she’s probably coming back.”
“Eunuch Shi is also an old man from the palace. Come and take a guess, what kind of girl has this kind of ability?”
The stone handle poured out a cup of hot tea and handed it over. Smiling, he replied, “This servant doesn’t dare to guess what kind of woman it is, but General Xiao came all the way back. This proves that this woman is not simple.”
“Oh? Hearing you say this, I really do want to meet you. ”
Ever since Jiang Xuan’s death, Lu Xuan had rarely been so interested in a woman.
The women in the palace were all fat and thin, with a myriad of attitudes, but he could not find the feeling he had when he looked at her.
Remembering the woman who had died in the sea of fire, Lu Que laughed self-deprecatingly. Although he felt regretful, he didn’t feel sad at all.
“Then Your Majesty means to send someone to invite that woman into the palace?”
Lu Qiu thought about it for a moment, then replied, “If that’s the case, then send some people …”
“Your majesty!” Before he could finish his words, a call came from outside the imperial study.
The stone handle looked outside the study and mocked, “Esteemed Empress is here.”
The carved scarlet door was pushed open. A dignified woman wearing a long dress walked in, dragging a cup of ginseng soup with her slender and jade-like hands.
“Who does the emperor want to see? “But chenqie?”
Lu Qiu cleared his throat, smiling as he hit her. “Why is the empress here?”
“Your majesty’s busy with work, chenqie couldn’t bear to personally make the ginseng soup and send it over.”
The empress increased her relationship, and the others consciously retreated to the side.
With Zhao Yaoyan’s sudden appearance, Lu Kui hid his true feelings. Afraid that the empress would be displeased, he had no choice but to give up his curiosity towards Su Zhi.
After returning from the imperial study, Zhao Yuyan’s complexion changed.
The emperor almost saw that woman. It was all that idiot An Yang’s fault.
“Did the honey really contain a large amount of cassava powder?”
Qian’er nodded. “That’s right, Niangniang. I heard that the woman’s face is swollen like a pig’s head. She won’t recover for a while.”
“I only remember that girl being unwell towards the cassava powder. I didn’t expect it to be her. The damned person has returned.”
Ruo’er consoled her, “Empress, don’t worry. Third Young Master said that as long as she leaves Xuan City and doesn’t head for the capital, we will have the chance to make our move.”
Zhao Yaoyan couldn’t help but snort. She didn’t have much trust in her half-brother.
If it wasn’t for the fact that Zhao Dagang was useless, the Zhao Family wouldn’t have allowed a bastard son to take charge. It wouldn’t have been pleasant to hear about him being a little girl after all.
Send word that we’re going to find a way to keep that woman in Xuancheng.” If Zhao Zheng really had a way to kill Su Qiuyi, then she would give him a push in the dark. After leaving Xuan City, the dark guards around her dispersed, making it easier for her to deal with them.
“Yes, your servant will obey.”
She wanted to see how Xiao Qian and the Jiang and Shen families, who were half dead, would be able to save that woman’s life.
“In addition, go and invite my father over. Tell him that his daughter misses home and wants him to enter the palace to say a few words.”
Returning from the palace, Su Zhi did not return to the shop. Instead, she was directly sent back to Spring Leaf Alley by Xiao Qian.
At this moment, Mother Ding had just gone to the garden with Bi Yue, leaving Dan Xue to look after the bean bag at home.
When the carriage stopped outside the door, Danxue heard the sound of movement as she opened the door, and was even quite surprised.
“Madam will be back soon?”
Xiao Qian carried her out of the carriage and headed inside. He instructed her, “Go and get some food. Clean it up a bit.”
Dan Xue complied and quickly served some soup dishes. When she saw Su Zhi’s white veil covering her face, she asked with some worry, “What’s wrong, Madam?”
“It’s nothing. I accidentally got allergic.”
Xiao Qian took the soup from the maid’s hand, blew on it to cool it off, and put it at the corner of Su Zhi’s mouth. “Take off your veil, I’ll feed you.”
Su Zhi shook her head and accepted the bowl of soup, urging, “Hurry up and do your own thing. A rebellion is no small matter, and if you can’t do it perfectly, then I will find a way to harm you. Besides, the reason why I’m acting like this right now is because I don’t want you to see me leaving.
Xiao Qian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he shook his head. This woman was truly … even he didn’t mind, but she actually did dislike him.
“Alright, then I won’t make things difficult for you if you don’t feel like it. Don’t worry about what happens in the shop, take care of yourself first.”
“Got it. Hurry up and go.”
After Xiao Qian left, Su Zhi let out a sigh of relief and took off her veil in front of Dan Xue.
Dan Xue could not help but let out a breath of cold air when she saw the large patches of red spots on Su Zhi’s face.
“Why is it so swollen?”
