Moon Emperor

Chapter 154 The Grateful Maid

The old lady seemed to go there very suddenly, but Su Yan didn't think it was abrupt, maybe as she said before, she missed him.

So Su Yan never asked that sentence from the beginning to the end: Do you still want to continue living?

Looking at the empty recliner, Su Yan sighed. She had loved her whole life, and she loved him so humblely. She said that Su Wenyuan was like a moth to a flame, so why isn't she herself?

Uncle Yan on the side couldn't help but ask at this moment: "Master, what should we do next?"

Once the old lady left, the entire Su family seemed to have lost their backbone, and now it seems that only the young master can take over this important task.

"I'm going to the capital to bury the old lady."

Although the Su family had committed the crime of treason at the beginning, when Su Wenyuan died, this incident had not happened after all, and even though he had no longer held military power at that time, he still had the title of "Duke of the State of Wei".

Therefore, the funeral of Su Wenyuan after his death was held in a splendid manner, and his body was buried near the emperor's mausoleum to show his favor to the hero.

Even though time has changed, no one dared to move Su Wenyuan's tomb, so Su Yan would naturally go to the capital to fulfill the old lady's last wish.

Moreover, he has to investigate the truth of the year and rehabilitate the Su family. This trip to Luoyang is inevitable.

"Apart from what I just said, did the old lady explain anything before her death? For example, who is her suspect?" Su Yan asked Uncle Yan.

Uncle Yan thought for a while, "You should know, young master, you basically already know."

"In addition, the old lady was really dissatisfied with His Majesty in the early years. She thought that even if she was not the culprit, the reason why our Su family fell to this point was inseparable from her."

"However, since being rescued seven years ago, the old lady has repeatedly thought about it, if His Majesty had not dealt with the Su family back then, what would have happened?"

Su Yan thought for a while, Su Fenghou committed suicide in fear of crime, and even had a signed letter of repentance, it is unlikely that the Empress would not do anything.

Because it would damage the prestige of her and the royal family, especially when Qi Longhuang had just ascended to the throne of God, and her seat was still unstable.

In other words, no matter whether Su Fenghou was wronged or not, the empress must deal with it unless she can directly find out the truth and prove Su Fenghou's innocence.

As for how to deal with it, there are no more than two ways, one is to kill them all, no matter right or wrong; the other is like now, the Su family is dilapidated, but the bloodlines still exist.

Su Yan thought over and over again, but still felt that he should start with the incident of being hunted down seven years ago.

First pass the investigation results of this matter to confirm the position of the empress.

If it is an enemy, kill it; if not, maybe she can be her help in investigating the truth.

Uncle Yan continued to narrate: "In the end, the old lady thought about it for a long time, and still think that the Li family of Zhao County should be investigated first."

This idea can be said to coincide with Su Yan's. It stands to reason that the Su family has been ruined to this point, even if the Zhaojun Li family is hostile to the Su family, they should not be so eager to silence it.

Unless someone in the Su family is alive for a day, they will have trouble sleeping and eating all day, so they took advantage of the opportunity of investigating the birth of the magic star to carefully weave a situation of extermination.

Having made up his mind, Su Yan turned his head and looked at the young maid next to him who didn't dare to show his air.

She was wearing a white dress embroidered with small blue flowers, she looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a simple double bun, her face was fresh and tender, with a little immaturity.

"What's your name?"

"Master, this servant is called Xiaowan, Su Xiaowan." The girl said cowardly.

"Surname Su?" Su Yan was a little surprised, it was pure coincidence or...
Seeing this, Uncle Yan explained: "Xiao Wan is a distant relative of our Su family. The family is too poor to let go, and they don't care about right and wrong."

"Her parents sent this girl into the mansion since she was a child, so she doesn't have to raise her mouth for nothing, and she can send some monthly money back every month."

Su Yan nodded knowingly, although after the treason incident, all relatives and relatives who were worthy and respectable had all cut ties with the Su family, but some poor relatives who lived far away couldn't care less.

Looking at Xiao Wan's appearance, Su Yan somehow felt a little familiar. He recalled that there seemed to be many figures about her in the memories left by the young master of the Su family.

And think about it carefully, in the few days when I just traveled here, this girl was also responsible for taking care of my daily life.

So Su Yan immediately made a decision, "It's enough for me to go to the capital, and the Su family will be temporarily handed over to Uncle Yan and Xiaowan you two."

As the saying goes, there are still three catties of nails in a rotten boat, even if the Su family's family is dilapidated, there are still several houses, and there are hundreds of acres of fertile land, which can be regarded as a family property.

But now Su Yan obviously doesn't want to take over, he doesn't mean to be a rich man, a rich man, a poor man, and wait to die.

Uncle Yan immediately waved his hands, "I can't do it, I can't do it."

Su Xiaowan was also dumbfounded, and immediately shook her head.

Su Yan pressed down with his right hand, signaling to the two of them to be quiet, "I'm not giving the family business to you, but letting you take care of it on your behalf. This is my trust in you."

"By the way, how much cash is in the account at home? I want to take some away."

Walking in the world is no different than living in the Qingcheng Cave. Everything costs money. If Su Yan doesn't want to do some illegal means, he must naturally have enough money.

Uncle Yan is deeply trusted in the Su family and serves as the housekeeper, so although he is not the accountant, he also has a certain understanding of it.

"There should be several thousand taels of silver in cash. The remaining gold, copper, silk and cloth are more difficult to count. You have to go to the account room to check."

Su Yan interrupted with a wave of his hand, "You ask the cashier to prepare 2000 taels of silver and [-] copper coins, and I will take them away before leaving tomorrow."

This is not a small amount for the current Su family, it almost took away half of the family property.

"As for the two of you, take good care of it. The Su family's property always needs someone to take care of it."

"I won't be back for a while. Except for daily expenses, the money in the account can be used by the two of you after discussion."

Even if the family feud is resolved and the Su family is officially rehabilitated, Su Yan probably won't come back to take over these mortal properties.

In the future, if there are children who don't want to cultivate immortals, but want to be rich in the world, let them come back and take over.

It has to be said that after Su Yan said these words, Uncle Yan was fine, but he frowned and thought about it: "Master, the Su family's property belongs to the Su family after all."

"I swear, old slave, that I will not squander the Su family's money recklessly, and I will definitely protect this foundation for you."

Su Xiaowan was a little dizzy. Although she was young, she was rather clever. She could hear the meaning of this "silly young master". He seemed to be planning to throw the matter away.

That's right, the old lady has already said that the young master will go to the sky to become a god in the future, how can he care about these stupid things in the world.

But Su Xiaowan liked it, she knew very well that just a few casual words from Young Master Su had changed her life forever.

Just keeping the income that this foundation can bring can make her have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life, and she can't help but be filled with sincere gratitude.
