The Su family's home was ransacked, all their property was confiscated, and even their house no longer belonged to them.
The gold and silver confiscated by the Jinwu Guards were immeasurable, not to mention some collections of paintings. Countless gold and silver treasures were put on carriages. In the end, even the family members and servants of the Su family were driven out, and large seals were affixed to Su's house.
The front door of a house means that this mansion will become the property of the housekeeper from now on.
Servants were private property, so the registered servants of the Su family were all taken away as official servants. Only a group of family members of the Su family were left, standing at the door of their former home at a loss, facing a group of people watching the excitement.
Point and point.
In the past, they looked down on ordinary people from a high position, but now they have become a talking point in their mouths. The huge gap makes it difficult for everyone in the Su family to adapt, and they can't help crying. The mentally fragile ones can't stand the stimulation and fainted.
Among the female members of the Su family, a well-maintained middle-aged woman wearing silk satin seemed to be crazy. She suddenly rushed to a young woman and slapped her across the face, "Sangmen Xing, it must be you who is the fan.
Menxing caused harm, not only brought down your Li family, but now it has come to harm my Su family. Why was I blinded by lard in the first place and took you two siblings in!"
The others seemed to have reacted, and they all stepped forward to pull the scratching woman and the boy next to her. All kinds of abuses were heard, and all the fear, worry, anxiety and resentment were poured out on them. It seemed that only in this way could they find the high-ranking person in the past.
that power.
The two siblings hugged each other tightly, enduring the attacks from the Su family, with hatred gleaming in their eyes. Suddenly, the woman got the strength from nowhere, pushed everyone around her away, pulled the boy and rushed out of the crowd and ran away.
The female members of the Su family were pushed to the ground. When they got up to chase the people, the siblings had disappeared. Without their personal servants, they would lose their omnipotent minions, but they would not be able to restrain a chicken.
Just women and children.
Ye Zhenzhen was on the second floor of the teahouse, watching this absurd and ironic scene with cold eyes, without feeling any pity in her heart.
Whether it is the Li Minghui siblings who were attacked or the crazy Su family, they are all deserved retribution for being reduced to this situation - Su Chongde's corrupt and illegal gains were all turned into nutrients to support this group of pampered family members.
, no one is innocent.
As for Cui Weizhen, his indifferent expression can be called cold. He still remembers what it was like when the female family members of the Su family came to express condolences after their father passed away. They pretended to be compassionate with a trace of schadenfreude. Now they have also fallen into the mortal world.
No one will take pity on them.
Of course, this is far from enough.
With old and new grudges added together, Cui Weizhen was not just satisfied with bringing down the Su family - the Su family also owed his Cui family a life.
His breath became even colder.
Ye Zhenzhen trembled inexplicably, as if she was attacked by the cold air, and immediately pulled the cloak tightly around her body. Cui Weizhen noticed and immediately asked with concern, "Is it cold? Do you want to go home?"
Ye Zhenzhen was torn between watching a good show and having a warm charcoal basin, and finally chose the latter, "Okay, let's go home."
The show is almost over and there is no point in staying any longer.
After getting on the carriage, she couldn't help but ask, "The Su family has been fined and confiscated, and everyone has been kicked out. Where will they stay next?"
Ye Zhenzhen knew without Cui Weizhen's answer, because at the entrance of the alley, she saw Su Yingru's carriage - she didn't know how long she, a married daughter, could take in her parents' family.
Chen Chenyu is from a poor family, and he is able to settle down in Kyoto. The honor guard is his father-in-law's assistant. His current residence is only Su Yingru's dowry house. The yard with only two entrances cannot accommodate the entire Su family, and they have only lived there for a few days.
, the Su family planned to return to their hometown.
When people walk away, the tea cools down, and the trees fall and the hozens scatter. This is what happened to Su Chongde.
In the past, he had relatives and friends all over the place, and everyone could have some connection with him. Since he was demoted and the Su family was ransacked, everyone has severed ties with him overnight, except for his daughter and son-in-law who were not involved.
, he and his family left Beijing with no one else to see him off.
Because he was implicated, the Su family members lost their official positions one after another and stopped serving as officials for three generations, so he had to place all his hopes on his son-in-law.
When leaving, he solemnly told, "Chen Yu, your majesty was deceived by a traitor and became furious, so you will severely punish our Su family. In the future, if you have the opportunity to accompany us, you will go to intercede on our behalf. When I come to recover,
I will definitely never forget your contribution."
Chen Chenyu's eyes flashed, "Father-in-law, please rest assured, I will do it. You can return to your hometown with peace of mind. Your Majesty misses the old friendship, and one day he will miss your contribution."
Although his tone was respectful, he had lost the awe and solemnity of the past, and his eyes showed a bit of pretentiousness.
As a veteran who has been in the officialdom for many years, doesn't Su Chongde know that his son-in-law is perfunctory and hypocritical? But he has no other choice but to pin his hopes on him.
Suppressing the anger and unwillingness in his heart, he specifically told his daughter, "If you don't have the protection of the Su family in the future, you have to restrain your temper. Don't offend others easily and cause trouble for your son-in-law. Take good care of your husband and raise your son, and give your son-in-law a son and a half."
That’s business, you know?”
As long as his daughter is pampered and given a pillow blow, Chen Chenyu will have the possibility to support his wife's family.
Su Yingru didn't know if she understood Su Chongde's subtext, but kept nodding her head with tears in her eyes. In just a few days, her whole body became haggard, and she no longer had the bright and arrogant look of the past. She had always known that she was the most guilty one.
Woman, her situation will be even more difficult in the future.
The two sides said goodbye reluctantly at the gate of the city. No matter how reluctant they were, the Su family had to leave the capital where they had lived for most of their lives.
Seeing the city gate getting further and further away, the female members of the Su family all had red eyes and sobbed softly. Su Chongde's eyes were even more serious, and there was a low pressure all over his body. There was an ominous premonition in his heart, and he always felt that this was what he was doing.
It was the last time in my life that I saw the gate of the capital city.
The whole Su family looked gloomy and did not notice anything unusual about the new cook. By the time they found out, it was already too late. On the way, Su Chongde, who was tired from traveling and traveling, fell ill and ate food that was incompatible with the medicinal properties, and died.
When they learned from the doctor that something was wrong with the food and planned to interrogate the cook, they discovered that he had escaped without a trace.
Su Chongde's death has become an open case - the Su family has offended so many people, they don't even know who took revenge.
The Su family, which originally had hopes of returning to the capital, fell into complete silence with the death of Su Chongde.
