After leaving the palace, Prime Minister Su hurried back to his residence, where Su Ze was waiting for him anxiously at home.
As soon as he saw him coming back, Su Ze rushed to greet him, "Dad, something big happened!"
Prime Minister Su's expression was not very good either, "I already know that King Yu said everything in front of the emperor."
"What! That bitch." Su Ze exploded when he heard this.
In the past, Prime Minister Su would have told Su Ze to be cautious, but now the situation is different. Prime Minister Su had a feeling in his heart that the situation was about to completely change.
His feeling was soon confirmed by what Su Ze said.
"There was a rumor that Xiaochen had a destiny with a fairy, and that he was a monster. The rumors reached the ears of the emperor. The emperor sent King Yu and Yu Dongren to investigate, and also secretly sent people to investigate. In order not to implicate the villagers of Beiguan Village, Xiaochen
, moved the entire Beiguan Village away, leaving her to deal with the aftermath with King Qi."
Recalling the previous scene, Su Ze felt a little panicked.
"King Qi also asked me to tell you to prepare as soon as possible and evacuate as soon as possible."
Prime Minister Su is not surprised. Seeing that the current situation is like this, Song Chen has really played a trick on the Emperor and King Yu. They will definitely be furious when they react. It is not certain what they will do. King Qi sounds like this
You should also be prepared to deal with it.
This response must have meant breaking up the relationship.
Prime Minister Su thought this and already had a plan in mind.
"Just stay at home and don't go anywhere, and don't let others know that you are in Beijing."
After leaving these words, Prime Minister Su turned around and went out again.
This time he was walking around the streets, seriously inquiring about the person he was looking for. He would send this person to the emperor, but he had the final say when and how he would send him.
He also has the final say.
The night gradually darkened, and Prime Minister Su was still on the street.
For most of the day, he had no sedan or carriage, and relied on only one pair of legs to walk.
And all of this reached the ears of the emperor.
That night, another carriage came out of the Su Mansion, and on it sat the lightly dressed Mrs. Su. At this time, the city gate was locked. The man guarding the city gate saw that it was the carriage of the Su family, so he hesitated and stepped forward.
Asked a few questions.
"May I ask which master of the Su family is on the carriage?"
Carriages all have their own specifications, especially in Shangjing. The carriage now appearing at the city gate is of the highest standard in the Su family. Generally, only the three masters of the Su family can use it.
Prime Minister Su and his wife, and the young master of the Su family.
Mrs. Su asked someone to open the car door to reveal her face.
The man guarding the city gate hurriedly saluted, "It turns out to be Madam Su. I'm offended. May I ask why Madam left the city so late?"
Mrs. Su was not angry, but her face looked a little anxious, "I have something urgent and I need to go out of the city to find a doctor. I hope he can be released."
Almost everyone in the capital knew about the Su family, and the people guarding the city gate were no exception. After hearing these words and seeing Mrs. Su going out in person, she already had concerns in her heart.
"Madam, please, please forgive me, madam."
"It's your duty, it's us who have caused trouble for you."
"Madam, you are serious, please."
The people at the city gate didn't ask any questions and just let him go.
The carriage went all the way out of the city, and no one knew where they were going.
palace
The emperor had listened carefully to everything that happened during the day, especially everything about Prime Minister Su's family. All of Prime Minister Su's behavior made the emperor feel very comfortable.
Such a minister was what he wanted, and Prime Minister Su did not disappoint his expectations.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Su is out of the city..." On the side, Manager Li asked one more question, but did not finish what he said.
The emperor understood what he meant, "No problem."
Prime Minister Su had been searching for the doctor for most of the day today. He must have gotten some news. He was afraid that something would go wrong if he left the city, so he had to ask Mrs. Su to go out to look for him. The news reported over there was also very clear. Mrs. Su had not left the city.
He felt more at ease about what to bring.
"Then Su Ze...do you know where he is right now?"
Su Ze fled to Beijing because of his marriage. There has been no news from Su Ze in recent days.
"I don't know, I haven't heard any news about him. He seems to have gone to the south."
"South?" The emperor was silent for a while and nodded.
The south is a land of barbarians. After so many years of trouble, Su Ze has completely fallen out with the Su family, and he will feel more at ease in the future.
This time, the doctor they are looking for can only be King Yu.
Seeing that the emperor's expression was relaxed, General Manager Li stopped continuing the topic and said, "I'm going to see how the ginseng soup is doing."
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Go."
Every time he drank the ginseng soup, he felt very comfortable all over. Such a thing must be extraordinary. Prime Minister Su was willing to send it to him, which shows his loyalty.
Manager Li withdrew from the Emperor's side and turned to the small kitchen.
But not long after, a young eunuch came out from there. Although his expression was normal, he was walking in a hurry.
He went straight to the most hidden place in the palace, found a bush, knocked on the wall a few times, and soon got a response.
The code was matched and the message was sent.

In Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Yu, who came back from the palace, was so disheartened that he locked himself up and didn't care about anything.
The whole room was full of wine jars. He didn't want to get drunk, he just naively wanted to use wine to kill the poison.
He wanted to see how the poison would react under the stimulation of alcohol, but after drinking all the alcohol, he still didn't feel anything other than drunk.
This situation made him even more desperate.
Early the next morning, he walked out of the room in confusion. The subordinates outside had been worried all night. The master's return this time was so unusual that they had no idea what had happened.
"master……"
"Get out! Get out of here all!"
King Yu stood at the door and looked at his place. What he was thinking about was the poison on his body and what Song Chen said.
Suddenly, King Yu woke up completely.
Song Chen!!!
She said she wanted to exchange her family property for her life. Did he give her the money so that his life could be saved?
If the money is gone, you can still make more money, but if your life is gone, you have nothing.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming!"
King Yu was shouting like crazy, and the housekeeper standing behind him was so frightened by his state that he quickly came out and stood in front of King Yu.
"Master, this slave is here."
King Yu stepped forward and grabbed his lapel, "Hurry up and check the warehouse for me. All the money must be counted out, and all valuable things must be counted out for me."
There is nothing he can't bear to part with now.
The housekeeper had no idea what was going on, so he could only obey the order and immediately asked a few people to open the warehouse door.
King Yu also walked over.
There are two warehouses in his house, a small warehouse and a large warehouse. Normally, the small warehouse is used by the house, but now it is the large warehouse that needs to be opened.
The servants were doing the counting over there, and King Yu was watching the whole process.
As the boxes of money were opened, King Yu's heart bleeds. These things he had collected over the years, and half of his mother's and concubine's things were handed over to him.
I'm going to send it out like this now...
It took them almost an hour to finish counting everything in the warehouse, and the housekeeper came to King Yu with a booklet.
"Master, everything in the big warehouse is in this book."
King Yu didn't want to read it at first, but when he saw what was written on the first page out of the corner of his eye, he felt inexplicably better.
"Are these all banknotes?"
King Yu's finger was on a number on the first page, and he already had an idea in his mind.
The housekeeper looked at the place he pointed at and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Master, the banknotes total six hundred thousand."
This number is definitely an astronomical figure to outsiders. Even other princes rarely have this kind of net worth, but these are only half of their master's net worth. These banknotes can be exchanged nationwide and can be turned into
silver.
"Now you immediately take people with you to go to the major banks in Shangjing to exchange all these banknotes into silver. Remember, all of them must be silver, not even a single piece of gold!"
Just as the steward was about to say something, King Yu spoke again, "Don't ask anything, just do it. All the money that can be exchanged must be collected into the warehouse before dark today."
After King Yu said this, the housekeeper did not dare to ask any more questions and could only do as he was told.
After locking the warehouse, I struggled to hold a big box and started arranging manpower.
He didn't know why the master was doing this. Even if he wanted to hoard it, he should exchange it for gold? Silver takes up a lot of space.
Little did they know that what their master wanted was to occupy space.
He exchanged all the banknotes for silver, and when the time comes, he will see how Song Chen gets it!
Anyway, he gave her something as agreed, and how much she could take away was her own business. He didn't believe that Cang Xiuxuan dared to bring a large army to help Song Chen move money.
So the next day in the capital, there was a very strange scene. The people in Prince Yu's Mansion were divided into several groups, all carrying a lot of banknotes. They went to a bank and exchanged tens of thousands of taels of silver, and then another group
A group of people transported all the money back.
Over and over again, they visited almost all the banks in the capital. At the end of the day, the hands of those who transported the money were almost broken, and they finally cashed in all the silver notes.
The entire bank in Shangjing was also panicked by their move. Suddenly, a servant from the prince's family came to redeem the money with so much silver. They subconsciously thought that something had happened.
After all, the prince knows more or less the inside story.
Everyone was frightened here, but King Yu relaxed when he saw so much silver. Even a large warehouse like his could not contain the silver, and even the small warehouse was full. There was so much money.
He wanted to see how Song Chen could transport the money out of the capital!
As long as Song Chen comes, he will hand over these things generously.
