464 Not Unjust

She did not feel wronged when Madam Qin confessed.

Zhou Wenjing sobbed and remained silent.

Sun Yangxin was shocked. He looked at Su Xiaoling guiltily and felt a burning pain on his face, making him feel ashamed. However, even so, he braced himself and begged with difficulty, “Crown Prince, Wisdom King, this matter was caused by me. I’m willing to be punished, and I’m willing to suffer on behalf of my mother.”

Madam Qin shed tears of regret. Her son had never disobeyed her in his life. There was only one thing that made him so stubborn.

Madam Qin regretted it in her heart. If she could turn back time, she definitely wouldn’t rush Zhou Wenjing like that. Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world.

“Lord Sun is indeed filial, but this is a serious matter. Miss Su is the Crown Prince’s consort personally bestowed by the emperor. She suffered harm today, and your Sun family is guilty of harming her. All of you are guilty. Why are you pus.h.i.+ng the blame around?”

Zhou Zhi’s tone was cold and mocking.

“All of them will be sent to the Ministry of War’s prison to be interrogated and convicted.”

Zhou Zhi ordered with a cold expression.

Instantly, Madam Qin panicked.

Zhou Wenjing also panicked. None of them had expected the matter to be so serious.

Being held, Madam Qin was pale and powerless. She begged bitterly, “Wisdom King, Crown Prince, my daughter-in-law, Wenjing, is already pregnant. She is over forty years old. This matter has nothing to do with her. Please don’t arrest her. She is just a pitiful woman.”

Zhou Wenjing was pregnant at such an old age, and her body wasn’t strong. Under the harsh conditions in prison, the child in her stomach probably wouldn’t survive. It wasn’t easy for the Sun family to have a descendant, so Madam Qin couldn’t let Zhou Wenjing go to jail.

Zhou Wenjing lowered her head and could only cry.

Zhou Zhi looked at Zhou Heng. The Sun family was just the Wei family’s saber.

Was Zhou Heng willing to let Sun Yangxin off and let Sun Yangxin owe him a favor so that he could use him in the future? These were all things that Zhou Heng had to weigh.

“Take Madam Sun and Lord Sun away for investigation. Before the results are out, the Sun family is not allowed to travel.”

Zhou Heng spoke. This was the first time he had faced this kind of danger. It also made him understand that he could not generalize when dealing with things, let alone do as he pleased.

Zhou Zhi glanced at him and Zhou Heng understood what he meant.

He had also made the most favorable decision.

Sun Yangxin and Madam Qin were taken away. As for Zhou Wenjing, she was under probation in the Sun residence and couldn’t travel. Although she wasn’t imprisoned, restricting her from traveling was another method of imprisonment.

“I’ve arranged a carriage to take you back.”

Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu.

Qi Xingzhi heaved a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, “It’s good that Cousin is fine. Xiaolu, we’ll be going home too.”

Su Xiaolu nodded. “Okay.”

They separated from the Sun residence.

Along the way, Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu did not speak.

When they reached home, Zhou Heng came to Su Xiaolu with a request, “Xiaolu, go back and tell Third Uncle and Auntie not to worry. I have something to tell your sister, okay?”

Su Xiaolu nodded and got out of the carriage.

It was very quiet in the carriage. Zhou Heng spoke first, “Xiaoling, I’m sorry. I didn’t protect you well.”

Su Xiaoling shook her head. “This has nothing to do with you.”

There were hidden dangers everywhere. She could not guard against it. She was so weak. She thought about how Zhou Heng trembled when he hugged her. His bloodshot eyes were like those of a crazy beast. Su Xiaoling’s heart was filled with worry and confusion. Was she not suitable to walk beside Zhou Heng?

She was afraid that Zhou Heng would become an irrational and bloodthirsty monster because of her.

“Xiaoling, don’t go out in the future. Just stay at home. I’ll arrange for someone to protect you. I’ll get someone to send a maidservant to serve you. Don’t go anywhere. Just stay at home and embroider the wedding dress. Wait for me to marry you, okay?”

Zhou Heng looked at Su Xiaoling and said seriously. After experiencing such a thing once, he was afraid.

He wanted to kill the person who hurt Su Xiaolu, but he could not. As long as they were still useful, he could not kill any subject. If he wanted to be emperor, the first thing he had to know was to weigh the pros and cons.

In this iron bucket filled with danger everywhere, there was not so much time for him to grow. He was afraid that he would not be able to protect the person he wanted to protect, and the timid him could not bear the consequences of losing her. All he could do was restrict Su Xiaoling’s freedom because it would be easier for him to protect her.

He felt that his thoughts were dark and he did not dare to look at Su Xiaolu’s expression. He lowered his head and said with difficulty, “Xiaoling, I can’t take any more of this. Promise me, okay? I promise that I will become stronger quickly. When there’s no danger around us, you can go wherever you want, okay?”

Now, for his sake, don’t go anywhere.

Su Xiaoling reached out and rubbed Zhou Heng’s hair gently. She said gently, “Alright, I promise Brother Heng that I won’t go anywhere from now on. Brother Heng, don’t worry about me. Do whatever you want.”

Su Xiaoling did not blame Zhou Heng for restricting her freedom. She understood his difficulties.

She was already prepared to face all the dangers with him, so how could she chicken out at the last minute?

However, it was fine if she did not go out. She could focus on her culinary skills. After she got married in the future, she would make many medicinal cuisines and dishes for Zhou Heng to eat.

Su Xiaoling was not dissatisfied at all. She was as understanding as before. Zhou Heng’s heart ached. He should have made her happy and carefree instead of thinking about others.

He could not do it. His heart was in pain. He bit his thin lips. He swore that he would make this day come as soon as possible.

“Xiaoling, wait for me.”

After saying this, Zhou Heng got off the carriage.

He walked to the other carriage, which left quickly.

Su Xiaoling got out of the carriage and looked at Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, Su Chong, and Su Hua. Su Xiaoling pursed her lips and said apologetically, “Father, mother, I’m sorry for making you worry.”

Madam Zhao’s eyes were still red. “What nonsense are you saying? It’s alright as long as you’re fine.”

Su Sanlang looked gentle. “Let’s go home.”

“I’m glad you’re back.”

Su Chong and Su Hua did not say much and only said one sentence.

The family went home together.

After was.h.i.+ng up that night, the two sisters hugged each other and fell asleep.

Su Xiaolu suddenly said, “Sister, if you don’t want to be an imperial concubine anymore, I’ll take you away. We can go anywhere we want. We can look for my Master and travel the world together.”

Su Xiaolu felt quite uncomfortable. Hidden dangers, framing, and all kinds of traps would appear in Su Xiaoling’s future. It would not be just once, but many, many times.

She felt that such a life was too tiring. She didn’t want Su Xiaoling to be so tired.

Su Xiaoling smiled and said, “Xiaolu, I’m not leaving. I want to face it with Brother Heng. No matter what happens in the future, I’m not afraid. You’re still young. One day, when you meet the person you love, you’ll understand everything I’m thinking now.”

Su Xiaolu was still a little girl and did not know what love was, so she could not understand why she refused to leave even though she knew that it was going to be hard.
