Chapter 4 Grateful Maid

 The old lady seemed to go very suddenly, but Su Yan didn't feel it was unexpected. Maybe as she said before, she missed him.

So Su Yan never asked that question from beginning to end: Do you still want to continue living?

Looking at the empty reclining chair, Su Yan sighed. She had loved her whole life, and she had loved humbly. She said that Su Wenyuan was like a moth flying into a flame, so how could she herself be the same?

Uncle Yan on the side could not help but ask: "Master, what should we do next?"

Once the old lady left, the entire Su family seemed to have lost its backbone. Now it seems that only the young master can take over this important responsibility.

"I'm going to the capital to bury the old lady."

Although the Su family had committed the crime of treason, when Su Wenyuan died, this incident had not yet happened. Moreover, although he had no longer held military power at that time, he still had the title of "Duke Wei".<

/p>

Therefore, the funeral after Su Wenyuan's death was held with great splendor, and his body was buried near the imperial mausoleum to show his favor to the hero.

Although times changed later, no one dared to touch Su Wenyuan's grave. Therefore, if Su Yan wanted to fulfill the old lady's last wish, it was natural for Su Yan to make a trip to the capital.

Moreover, he has to investigate the truth of the year and rehabilitate the Su family. This trip to Luoyang is inevitable.

"Besides what I just said, did the old lady tell anything during her lifetime? For example, who was the object of her suspicion?" Su Yan asked Uncle Yan.

Uncle Yan thought for a while, "You should know, Master, you basically already know."

"In addition, the old lady was indeed dissatisfied with His Majesty in the early years. She believes that even if she is not the culprit, the reason why our Su family has fallen like this is inseparable from her."

"But since she was rescued seven years ago, the old lady has repeatedly thought about what would have been the result if His Majesty had not dealt with the Su family in any way."

Su Yan thought for a while, Su Fenghou committed suicide out of fear of crime, and there was even a signed and signed letter of apology. It was unlikely that the empress would not do anything.

Because this would damage her and the royal family's prestige, especially since Qilonghuang had just ascended to the throne of God and her position was not yet secure.

In other words, no matter whether Su Fenghou was wrongly accused or not, the empress must deal with it unless she can directly find out the truth and prove Su Fenghou's innocence.

As for dealing with it, there are only two ways. One is to kill them all regardless of right or wrong; the other is like now, the Su family is ruined, but the bloodline still exists.

Su Yan thought about it again and again, and still felt that we should start from the incident of being hunted down seven years ago.

First, confirm the position of the empress through the investigation results of this matter.

If it is an enemy, kill him; if not, maybe she can help him investigate the truth.

Uncle Yan continued to narrate: "In the end, after thinking for a long time, the old lady thought that we should start with the Li family of Zhao County."

This idea coincides with Su Yan's. Logically speaking, the Su family has been ruined to this point. Even if the Zhaojun Li family is still hostile to the Su family, they should not be so eager to silence them.

Unless someone in the Su family is alive, they will have trouble sleeping and eating, so they took advantage of the opportunity of investigating the birth of the devil star to carefully weave a situation of annihilation.

Having made up her mind, Su Yan turned around and looked at the young maid next to her who didn't dare to express her anger.

She was wearing a white dress with blue flowers embroidered on it. She looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a simple double bun, and her face was fresh and a little childish.

"What's your name?"

"Master, my name is Xiaowan, Su Xiaowan." The girl said cowardly.

"Surname is Su?" Su Yan was a little surprised. Is it just a coincidence?

Uncle Yan on the side saw this and explained: "Xiao Wan is a distant relative of our Su family. The family is too poor to raise the issue, and can't care about the right and wrong."

"Her parents have sent this girl to the house since she was a child. She doesn't have to keep her mouth shut for nothing, and she can also send some monthly money back every month."

Su Yan nodded clearly. Although after the rebellion, all the relatives and friends who had any respect had severed ties with the Su family, but some poor distant relatives could not care so much.

Looking at Xiao Wan's appearance, Su Yan felt familiar for some reason. He recalled that there seemed to be a lot of memories about her in the memories left by the eldest son of the Su family.

And if you think about it carefully, in the days when you just traveled through time, this girl was also responsible for taking care of your daily life.

So Su Yan immediately made the decision, "I can go to the capital alone. The Su family will be temporarily left to Uncle Yan and Xiaowan to take care of it."

As the saying goes, a broken ship still has three pounds of nails. Even if the Su family's family is in ruins, they still have several houses and hundreds of acres of fertile land. This can be considered a family fortune, whether it is big or small.

But now Su Yan obviously has no intention of taking over and waiting to die as a wealthy young man.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Yan waved his hands quickly, "I can't do it, I can't do it."

Su Xiaowan was also stunned and immediately shook her head.

Su Yan pressed down his right hand to signal the two of them to be quiet, "I am not giving the family property to you, but I am asking you to take care of it for me. This is my trust in you."

"By the way, how much cash is there in the account at home? I want to take some with me."

Walking in the world is no different than walking in the Qingcheng Cave. Everything costs money. If Su Yan doesn't want to do some illegal means, he naturally has to make sure his wallet is full.

Uncle Yan is deeply trusted in the Su family and serves as the housekeeper. Therefore, although he is not the accountant, he has a certain understanding of it.

"There should be several thousand taels of silver in cash. The remaining gold, copper, silk cloth, etc. are difficult to count. You have to go to the accounting office to check."

Su Yan waved her hand to interrupt, "You ask the accountant to prepare two thousand taels of silver and thirty guan of copper coins. I will take them with you before I go out tomorrow."

This is not a small sum for the current Su family, and it has taken away almost half of the family's fortune.

"As for you two, take good care of it. Someone will always need to take care of the Su family's property."

"I won't be back for a while. Except for daily expenses, the money in the account can be spent by the two of you after discussion."

Even if the family feud is resolved and the Su family is officially rehabilitated, Su Yan probably will not come back to take over these mortal properties.

In the future, if there are children who don’t want to become immortals and want to be rich in the human world, let them come back and take over.

I have to say that as soon as Su Yan said these words, Uncle Yan was okay. He just frowned and thought for a while and said, "Master, the Su family's property belongs to the Su family after all."

"Old slave, I swear that I will not squander the Su family's money carelessly, and I will protect this inheritance for you."

Su Xiaowan was a little dizzy. Although she was young, she was quite clever. She could hear what this "silly young master" meant. He seemed to be planning to throw everything away.

Yes, the old lady has said that the young master will go to heaven to become a god in the future, so how can he care about these idiots in the world.

But Su Xiaowan liked it, and she knew very well that Master Su had permanently changed her life's destiny with just a few casual words.
