C172 (2/2)

The carriage slowed down until it finally stopped.

Su Zhi had yet to recover from her shock. Suspicion clouded her mind as she felt a surge of wireless power enveloping the area above her. No matter how she tried to escape, it would be useless.

”The one who framed me time and time again, was it the Su Clan's enemy?”

Jiang Si nodded seriously and said, ”Yes, that's the Zhao Family.”

Zhao Family again?

”That day when Zhao Zheng went to Flower Mansion, I knew he would have recognized you. I don't dare to act rashly, for fear that he will harm you and A Jin with his crafty actions, so I have no choice but to secretly send people to protect you guys. ”

Su Zhi immediately thought back to that gentle and courteous man. Although there were many guests who had come to the Flowery Restaurant, there were very few who had an extraordinary temperament like his.

So even after so long, she still had an impression of him.

However, that man looked so innocent and harmless. He actually wanted to kill her?

”Don't be fooled by Zhao Zheng's appearance. Your brother was killed by him!” The leader of the execution is Zhao Jian! ”

Su Zhi's heart shook as she felt an unexplainable pain.

She clutched her heart, moaning in pain. Yin.

She had never seen Su Jun envious, wearing the outer shell of the Su Clan, but it wasn't the real Su Clan. She didn't know why, but her heart felt so uncomfortable.

She followed Jiang Si out of the car and into a small courtyard. There was a plum tree planted in the yard. It had passed the blooming season, and it looked somewhat despondent. A pot of tea was placed on a green stone table in the corner.

”Do you remember this courtyard?”

Su Zhi shook her head. She couldn't remember a thing.

”No problem, I've asked for a doctor. He might have a way to cure you.”

Hearing this, Su Zhi stopped and refused to take a step forward.

She was not a real Su Qiuyi, how could she remember?

”Don't be afraid, I won't make things difficult for you. If you think of it, it will be very helpful for Jin to return to the palace.”

”NO!” I don't want to send A Jin back! ”

That day, when she sent Little Dou Wu away, A Jin once cried and asked her if she would also send her away one day.

He had never thought that such a day would actually come.

Jiang Si felt a bit helpless, ”If you don't want to, you have no choice. After all, he is a member of the Lu family, a legitimate prince, and a very likely future ruler. If something happens to Lu Chenming, he will become the sole heir to the Great Wei River!”

Su Zhi growled, ”I've never thought of letting him be the ruler of anything, or sit on the throne! I just want him to live a peaceful and healthy life, and I don't have any other hopes, fighting in the open or in the dark, fighting for power or gain anything else. You can do whatever you want, but please don't implicate the children! ”

The Zhao Family was able to cause the Su Family's three families to be exterminated, Jiang Family to be quiet, and Shen Family to be wronged. They were also able to openly oppose Xiao Qian. They were naturally not to be trifled with.

She didn't want A Jin to be involved. The adult world was too complicated, and the child didn't know anything.

”Su Qiuyi, you can't be so selfish. Do you think everything will be alright if you don't let A Jin and His Majesty recognize each other? ”Let me tell you, the Zhao Family will not let you and your child go. Now, with the protection of General Xiao and I, you can escape from death many times. If A Jin cannot enter the palace, the consequences will be even worse!”

She had thought of this before. The Zhao Family had attacked so many times based on the Lifeline.

This time, it was her. If there was an accident, the next target would be …

Jiang Si invited her into the palace, still trying his best to persuade her, ”Don't worry about A-Jin's weak power. Once he enters the palace, the Jiang Clan will always stand on his side. If General Xiao thinks so highly of you, he will definitely help him. ”

The only person that could contend against the Zhao Family was Xiao Qian.

The Jiang and Shen Families' influence was already gone. They simply could not support A Jin entering the palace. The Zhao Family's foundation was deep and profound. Wouldn't it be easy for them to destroy the gates of the Jiang and Shen Families?

Thinking of this, Su Zhi's heart tightened.

”Madam, long time no see!”

A greeting came from inside the room, interrupting Su Zhi's train of thoughts.

She turned towards the direction of the sound and saw a young man in grey robes walking towards her.

Jiang Si hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, ”Doctor Luo, long time no see.”

That person nodded slightly and cupped his hands with a faint smile. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced in Su Zhi's direction. ”Second Miss Su, long time no see. Do you still remember me?”
