Chapter 9 Old events of the Su family

 When Su Yan woke up leisurely, he only felt that the sky was high and the clouds were vast, the breeze was blowing on his face, and his body was soft and warm, as if he was still in a dream.

"Master, are you awake?" Su Yan realized that he was not dreaming when he saw a surprised old face coming over from the side. He pressed his aching forehead and turned over to sit up, only to find that he was flying in the sky!

To be precise, at this time, an old man and a young man were sitting behind a crane, being led by a Taoist in green to an unknown place in the depths of the clouds.

The young Taoist turned around when he heard the movement, and just smiled and said: "It'll be okay if you continue to sleep for a while."

Uncle Yan explained for a while, and then Su Yan realized what happened to him after he was unconscious. He stood up and thanked the Taoist in front of him before sitting down.

If the other party hadn't fed him the elixir, Su Yan had exhausted all his energy this time and persisted without closing his eyes for a day and a night. He would have slept for at least three days and was unconscious. How could he have woken up so quickly?

At this time, Su Yan was finally able to relax his tight nerves. This escape journey was over, and his monastic career seemed to be about to begin...

Yes, Qingcheng Palace is the legendary secluded immortal cultivating sect. When Su Yan was reading novels in his previous life, he fantasized about a life of cultivating immortals, with a beautiful woman in his arms, stepping on an immortal sword, traveling to the North Sea in the evening, and feeling so carefree.

, so unhappy!

Now this dream seems to have a chance to be realized in this world, and Su Yan is certainly a little excited.

But when she thought of the blood feud she was carrying, Su Yan felt a little heavier for no reason...

As mentioned before, Su Yan came from a noble family in this life, and it was not just an ordinary family, it was the kind that once made a name for itself in the world and was prominent for a while.

Three generations ago, the ancestors of the Su family were just nobody, but starting from Su Yan's grandfather's generation, everything changed.

The first two generations of the Su family are collectively known as the "Double Heroes" by the world.

The first is Su Yan's grandfather Su Wenyuan. He was a veteran of the three Chu dynasties. He was worshiped as General Jianwei and was once awarded the title of General Jianwei. He once commanded the three armies, conquered east and west, and made great military exploits.

Su Wenyuan's battle at the Great River Gorge, which laid the foundation for the unification of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, is still talked about by people today.

After the war, the emperor at that time wanted to make him the "Generalissimo of the World's Soldiers and Horses", but Su Wenyuan refused, and from then on he began to actively withdraw from the army.

Moreover, Su Wenyuan is not only extremely capable of leading troops in battle, but his own strength is extremely strong. He has entered the mysterious realm of [Martial Arts and Gods], and can almost be regarded as a land immortal.

Speaking of this "Martial Arts and Gods", Su Yan still remembers his surprise when he learned the details. It turns out that this is not the world of martial arts??

This is not because Su Yan has not accepted the original memory of the body, but the memory left by the original owner, most of which are vague, like seeing flowers in the fog, like a dream.

In short, the upper limit of martial arts in this world is much higher than Su Yan expected at the beginning. People who practice martial arts can return to their innate nature from the day after tomorrow, let alone fly to the sky and escape from the earth. In the later stage, it will not be a problem to move mountains and seas, destroy cities and rivers.

.

......

The other outstanding figure among the two heroes of the Su family is Su Yan's father, Su Fenglang.

With such a domineering name, he is actually a scholar.

I heard that Mr. Su also wanted his son to join the army at first, which is evident from the name he gave him, but later he lost his mind for some unknown reason.

In addition, Su Fenglang liked to study since he was a child, so Mr. Su stopped interfering with his son and let him choose his own path.

As the saying goes, a tiger's father has no dogs, and Su Fenglang did not lose his reputation as an old man.

He worshiped the great Confucian Wang Yuan of the time, studied hard while living in poverty, passed the imperial examinations, palace examinations, became the number one scholar in high school, entered the court as an official, married a sweet wife, and was promoted all the way to the position of minister.

If Su Yan were to evaluate it, in one sentence: the halo of the protagonist is the same as being cheated.

The former status of the Su family was supported by these two heroes. When it was most prominent, various aristocratic families in Dachu could be said to be vying to marry into the Su family, even if this new aristocratic family did not have a deep foundation.

Unfortunately, what happened next took a turn for the worse...

First, Su Wenyuan died of an inexplicable illness, and the influence of the Su family suddenly dropped.

A few years later, to be precise, in the year when the current empress had just ascended the throne, the first year of Tianshou, news suddenly came out: Su Fenglang was involved in conspiracy and tried to support the deposed former prince to ascend the throne.

What's even more bizarre is that as soon as this incident came out, Su Fenglang was found to have committed suicide out of fear of guilt. He hanged himself in his study room. There was still a letter of confession on his desk, saying that he was temporarily confused and begged the Holy Spirit for help.

Shangrao passed the Su family.

What happened next was even more unexpected.

The empress used thunderous means to annihilate the rebel party and nip the rebellion in the bud. In the end, she personally ordered the execution of the former prince, her brother.

When it was her turn to liquidate the Su family, the empress said that Su Fenglang's father was a veteran of the three dynasties and had made great military exploits for the Chu Dynasty. Moreover, Su Fenglang's brilliant political methods in the past were highly praised by his father. Since he had committed suicide in fear of crime, he

Treat the Su family lightly.

Since then, all the official positions and titles of the Su family have been taken back, all family properties have been confiscated, and the direct lineage of the Su family has been demoted back to their hometown. They will not be allowed to obtain civil or military honors in any way in the future, and even the children of the Su family will never be allowed to enter the capital.

Although this seems very cruel, except for Su Fenglang, no one in the direct, collateral, or disciples of the Su family was executed?

To be honest, this is completely incomprehensible.

Some people speculate that the empress was worried about Su Fenglang's father, a great figure in martial arts and spirituality, and was afraid that he would not die, so she did not dare to do anything too extreme.

Some people also speculate that this matter has nothing to do with the Su family and is simply framed.

As for why the empress wanted to attack the Su family, she might be afraid that the leader of the Su family had great achievements, was quite prestigious in the military, and had good relations with many civil and military officials of the dynasty, so she used this as an excuse to attack.

In addition, some people speculate that the empress made a mistake. At first, she really thought that the Su family was plotting rebellion, but after further investigation, she found that she had been wronged, and she was riding a tiger.

At that time, the empress had just ascended to the throne, becoming the first empress in the ages, or even in eternity. There were many voices of opposition from both the government and the public, and her position was not yet secure. Naturally, she would not allow such mistakes to happen, so she simply made up her mind and took the position firmly.

This happened.

In short, no matter what the outside world speculates and how public opinions are, the Su family has declined since then. In the past, it was a prosperous family, but now it is destitute. Even relatives and friends have taken the initiative to cut off from the Su family, for fear of being implicated and imprisoned, and their lives will be lost.

Not long after the Su family was demoted and returned to their hometown, Su Yan's mother was too sad and couldn't bear to fall ill. Not long after, she died with her husband.
