The next day, after Su Yao finished cleaning up, the wind chime came over.

Salute with clasped fists.

"General, the master of the house is kindhearted."

Su Yao nodded.

"Well, let's go."

In the Chaoshou corridor, Su Yao is in front, Feng Ling and Xiao Lian are following behind.

Suddenly a tile fell from the top without warning and hit Su Yao.

Su Yao wanted to dodge, but her legs suddenly cramped.

Her eyes were stunned and she clapped her palm.

"Pa..."

The tiles shattered in response.

Several fragments flew towards Su Yao's face again. The distance was too close and there was no way to avoid it. Su Yao raised her arms to protect her face.

The broken tiles made a deep cut in Su Yao's arm.

"General."

Two voices exclaimed at the same time.

Feng Chime and Xiao Lian stepped forward quickly.

Xiaolian lowered her head and saw the wound on Su Yao's arm, her eyes brightened slightly.

I couldn't help but feel pity that such a deep wound would be better on my face.

There was still worry on his face:

"General, you are injured."

"General, why don't you go and bandage it first? The wound is too deep. Don't let it get inflamed."

Feng Chime's pupils shrank and he hurriedly spoke out to comfort him.

Su Yao shook her head.

"Need not."

Then he took out the porcelain bottle from his sleeve, sprinkled the white powder on the wound, took out the handkerchief and simply tied it.

Turn around and walk towards the study.

He looked down at his arm, with a dark and unclear look in his eyes.

Is it unexpected...?

As soon as I stepped into the study, a teacup flew towards me.

Su Yao ducked slightly and the teacup fell to the ground with a "bang..." sound and fell apart.

"Su Yao, you are so brave."

Su Yao withdrew her eyes from the broken teacup fragments coldly.

It would be strange if there was no blood if it hit her on the forehead.

Su Yao raised her head and looked at Shangguan Lan with doubtful eyes.

"Mom, what's going on?"

Su Lan became more and more angry when she saw that Su Yao was hiding away.

"Su Yao, you suddenly supported the fourth emperor's daughter to ascend to the throne and kept my mother in the dark. Do you still think of me as your mother?"

"Mom, please be careful. My daughter is not that capable. The fourth princess was the crown prince appointed by the late emperor himself. No one expected that the late emperor would appoint the fourth princess."

"That's why my daughter finally sided with the Fourth Princess. I don't know what she did wrong."

Su Lan narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Su Yao's expression. It didn't look like she was lying, so she expressed doubts.

"You didn't know beforehand?"

Su Yao nodded.

"Well, my daughter also found out about His Majesty's last edict before he died. The late Emperor also gave it to his daughter before he died."

Lidya Su sat on the chair.

"Well, what are your plans from now on?"

"My daughter thinks that no matter who sits in that position, it makes no difference to us. Often the more familiar a person is, the easier it is to stab someone in the back."

Su Lan narrowed her eyes, thought for a while, and looked at Su Yao, did you know something early on?

"Well, Zheng Yu was placed beside me by Shangguan Yuxue."

"Mom, if Shangguan Yuxue becomes the emperor, what will be waiting for my daughter? It would be a death penalty to lead troops back to the capital without permission."

Su Lan's eyes tightened, she had never doubted Xiaoxue.

Yes, someone has to take the blame for bringing troops back to Beijing privately. Zheng Yu is hers, so Yaoyao can only take the blame.

Su Lan felt a cold sweat on her back. If that time really came, what would she do.

The answer is self-evident, Yaoyao can only be sacrificed for the sake of Prince Su's palace.

"Dong dong dong..."

A rapid knock on the door interrupted Lidya Su's contemplation.

Su Lan frowned in displeasure and said coldly:

"Come in."

Butler Zhao pushed open the door and entered with an anxious tone.

"Master, it's not good, something happened to the eldest lady, please go and have a look."

Su Lan suddenly stood up from the chair and walked out quickly.

"Where are the people?"

"It's in Haitang Courtyard."

Su Yao follows closely behind.

When Su Yao and the others walked to Haitang Courtyard, they heard women wailing.

"Ah... so excited, the second sister hasn't arrived yet."

"Miss, please wait a moment, we have already sent someone to ask for the general."

An attendant looked at Miss Zijia distressedly and choked with sobs.

Su Yao followed Su Lan in and saw the woman on the bed with a pale face, big beads of sweat falling from her forehead, and her hands were covered in blood.

"dignified."

Su Lan was startled, stepped forward quickly, looked at the three fingers on her right hand that had been cut off in disbelief, and took a deep breath.

"this……"

Su Tang turned his head when he heard the voice and asked Su Lan to stride over, followed by Su Yao.

She was delighted and looked at Su Yao expectantly.

"Second sister, help me, help me."

There must be nothing wrong with her hands. She still has to take the imperial examination. Has she not gone to the military camp yet? She has not replaced Su Yao yet.

There must be nothing wrong with her hands.

Su Yao frowned and stepped forward quickly.

"Sister, what happened?"

Su Lan's face was covered with frost, her heart was filled with anger, and she kicked the attendant who was kneeling on the ground.

"Tell me, who did it?"

The attendant was kicked to the ground, and he rolled over regardless of the pain on his body.

"Master, it was Ruyi Gambling House who did it. They cut off three of the eldest lady's fingers."

Hearing this, Su Lan suddenly looked at Su Tang with eyes like sharp knives, gritting his teeth.

"You... actually went to bet on Fang."

His hand hanging by his side was so strong that veins popped out, and his eyes were filled with anger and heartache.

"Su Tang, have I ever told you that I will turn a blind eye to whatever you do, except gambling? You ignored my words, didn't you?"

At this moment, Su Tang's face was as pale as paper, and he was sweating all over. Su Yao was bandaging the wound on his hand.

But the pain she felt made her eyes go black. At this moment, she finally understood what it meant to be connected to the heart. It was too painful.

When she heard Su Lan's words, she was so scared that she trembled and hid behind Su Yao, not daring to look into Su Lan's eyes.

"What's wrong with this?"

At this time, Su Cejun came over with her belly, and was shocked to see Su Tang's miserable condition.

When Su Lan heard the voice and saw Su Zhujun, the anger in her eyes was extinguished instantly.

Take a few steps quickly and hug Su Cejun's waist.

"Why are you here? You're pregnant. What if something happens to you?"

"Don't worry, it's okay. What's going on?"

Su Lan looked at Su Tang and snorted.

"Hmph, this bastard actually went to the gambling house."

"Ah... gambling house? You've been asking me for money again and again for so long, so you went to the gambling house?"

Su Cejun covered her mouth with a handkerchief, exclaimed, and looked at Su Tang in disbelief.

She actually lied to him.

She clearly said that she would use the money to take care of things in the military camp and prepare for entering the military camp.

I didn't expect that she would use it for gambling.

Su Tang's left hand was so hard that it turned white, and his eyes were fixed on Su Lan's hand on Su Cejun's waist.

Su Yao lowered her head to take care of Su Tang and bandaged her. She noticed her changes and glanced along her line of sight.

The corners of her mouth curled up playfully, it seemed that there was a story.

Su Tang heard Su Cejun's words and dodged and lowered her head.

She didn't want to, but she just couldn't control it.

Su Lan was startled and looked at Su Cejun.

"Are you saying that she asked you for money?"

Su Cejun nodded, his voice choking.

"It's all my fault. I should have investigated it clearly."

Su Lan saw the man crying, and her heart ached as never before. This was a feeling she had never had before.

She hurriedly held him in her arms and comforted him softly.

"Okay, okay, it's okay, I don't blame you."

Su Tang closed his eyes and stopped himself from looking. She was afraid that she would not be able to help but come forward and hold him in her arms.

"Okay, be careful not to touch the wound with water."

Su Yao stood up and instructed.

Then Su Zhujun looked at Su Lan.

"Father, this is not the time to blame. We still have to find out what happened first. Now that he is so badly injured, he will not be able to participate in the imperial examination in the future. I am afraid it will be difficult for him to hold a pen."

At this point, Su Lan was startled, and then his face suddenly became gloomy, and he glared at the servant fiercely.

"Why don't you tell the truth."
