Chapter 195: Panic at home
Suddenly someone announced that King Ding entered the palace to greet him quickly. Sun Cuilan and Su Jinnian looked at each other in confusion, feeling that something bad was coming. They hurriedly dressed up and went out to greet him.
Nan Muchen got off the carriage and came to the steps of the Su Mansion. He saw Su Jinnian disheveled and panting, Sun Cuilan hairpin with crooked makeup and tears streaming down her face. Looking behind her, the Su Mansion servants had panicked eyes and their lineups were in chaos. They always lead troops in battles. Nan Muchen, who was known for his neat lineup and strict military regulations, could not help frowning when he saw this.
"I don't know that His Highness Prince Ding is here, but I am not welcomed from afar. Please forgive me for being late to pick him up, and for asking for forgiveness." Su Jinnian was flustered in panic. When he bowed down, he staggered forward and almost fell dead. Make a fuss and eat shit.
Nan Muchen quickly stepped forward and reached out to support the panicked and helpless Su Jinnian, and said in a deep voice, "There is no need to be polite, father-in-law. How about we go into the house and talk?"
With these words in his mouth, the man was already helping Su Jinnian into the gate of Su Mansion.
The Su family's servants scattered in all directions, making way for them. Several smarter servants ran up and took the trembling Su Jinnian from Nan Muchen's hand, and followed Nan Muchen into the Su Mansion. Main living room.
When Su Jinnian sat down on the pearwood chair, Nan Muchen immediately dismissed everyone, leaving only Su Jinnian, his wife and Ji Ying.
"I don't know why Your Majesty came to the Su Mansion today because of important matters, but why didn't Princess Ding come with Your Majesty to satisfy the young man's longing for his daughter?"
If he hadn't seen how the Su family neglected his Princess Ding before, Su Jinnian's words today would have made people mistakenly think that Su Jinnian had a deep love for Su Mumu as a father and daughter. The acting was good, Nan Muchen couldn't help but Cold snort.
"I wonder why my father-in-law is in such a mess. Is there something going on in the house? Why don't you talk to me to solve the urgent problem."
"This..." Su Jinnian thought over and over again and was filled with worries. He hesitated for a long time and refused to disclose the matter. Sun Cuilan, who was standing aside, became anxious and pushed the hesitant Su Jinnian to tell him quickly.
"Hey...for some reason, the little old man's third daughter, Su Mumu, has been missing for a whole day and a night. She has been searched all over the Su Mansion and there is no trace of her."
Jiang Yeli sent a message before, saying that Tian Zhan had conclusively confirmed that the princess was not the real eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Jiqing. Now that Su Jiqing is missing, I am afraid that Tian Zhan is definitely related to Su Jiqing's disappearance. Maybe Su Jiqing was killed by Tian Zhan Hidden. Otherwise, Tian Zhan would not let Jiang Yeli go easily. After thinking like lightning, Nan Muchen thought for a while and ordered Su Jinnian to come up.
Su Jinnian stood up from the chair shakily and came to Nan Muchen's side.
Sun Cuilan wanted to follow closely, but was stopped by Ji Ying standing on the side. The fierce Ji Ying glared so hard that Sun Cuilan fell to the chair and trembled all over. She no longer had the majesty of the previous day.
Nan Muchen whispered a few words to Su Jinnian, stood up and walked out the door.
Su Jinnian covered his face with his hands and fell to the ground. After a long time, he howled loudly.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" A panicked Sun Cuilan threw herself on Su Jinnian, who was suddenly hit by frost and snow, and started to cry loudly.
Su Qingxue was secretly happy that Su Jiqing did such an outrageous thing, just waiting to see Su Jiqing's joke. Suddenly, she heard the maid running to say that the master and his wife had all fainted from crying in the living room, and hurriedly ran out of the boudoir.
When I came to the front hall, I saw Su Jinnian and Sun Cuilan waking up, hugging each other and crying again.
"Mom and dad, what's wrong with you?" Su Qingxue always makes things difficult for Su Mumu, and she is also vindictive with Su Jiqing. But it's just the temper of a child, just to get more love in front of her parents. Seeing her parents hugging each other and crying.
As if a disaster was imminent, he was in a hurry, waiting to see Su Jiqing's joke had long been forgotten. He slapped his father on the back, wiped his mother's tears, and kept persuading. "Mom and dad, my sister may be playful.
, refused to go home for a while, but I didn’t know that my parents would be worried. It would be better for them to relax and pay more attention to their health. When my sister comes back after she has gone crazy enough, my parents can just punish her, but don’t break up her body from crying and make her daughter worry.
.”
Su Qingxue's words of comfort were heard in Su Jinnian's ears, but they became more and more painful like a knife cutting flesh. She cried even more sadly, mumbling words that she would never come back to.
Sun Cuilan only said that Su Jinnian was worried that her daughter Hu Wei would ruin the family tradition, but after listening to Su Jinnian's words, it seemed that this was not the case. She wanted to force Su Jinnian to tell the truth, but was afraid that he would be too stubborn to tell the truth. She was worried about Su Jiqing's whereabouts and stayed with Su Jinnian.
The crying beside me was even more miserable.
"Dad, why can't you come back?" Su Qingxue heard that Su Jinnian's words didn't sound like a good thing and asked a few questions. Su Jinnian just cried and didn't say anything. When pressed, she began to deny that she had never said that she couldn't come back.
Seeing that Su Jinnian was incoherent, Su Qingxue had no choice but to send a servant to help Su Jinnian go back to his room to rest, leaving Sun Cuilan to comfort her with kind words.
Su Jinnian lay on the bed and thought about it. Nan Muchen's words were still ringing in his ears.
"I never thought that I, Su Jinnian, would end up like this..."
When I think of the sadness, I burst into tears again. After a life of exhaustion, I end up living with my three daughters. In recent years, I have always felt that I have been unable to do what I want. I just want to live a safe life and grow old together as a husband and wife. Who would have thought that this would happen to the family?
What a disaster. What a retribution...
One day I met my old father on the Huangquan Road. It was a shameless meeting.
Su Jinnian thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the colder his heart became. Since his way of life was cut off, it would be better to die early and escape from this life. He got up and found an old sweat towel, put it on the beam on a stool, tied it with his hands, closed his eyes and exerted force with his feet.
Kick the stool over and keep kicking your legs in the air.
Su Qingxue, who happened to be worried about her father, made arrangements for her mother and went to visit Su Jinnian in her room.
When she came to the door, she suddenly heard a bang in the room and the sound of a stool falling to the ground. She quickly pushed the door open and entered the room. Seeing her father hanging on the beam and kicking his legs, Su Qingxue was so frightened that Su Qingxue yelled. Fortunately, there were people outside the door.
Hou Jiading heard the noise and ran over.
After rescuing Su Jinnian, everyone poured water on his face and beat his back. Finally, Su Jinnian regained his breath. Everyone carried Su Jinnian to the bed and lay down. Su Qingxue wiped the cold sweat from her head and felt relieved.
"Did the Master and Madam see anyone just now?" Su Qingxue, who was so busy and exhausted, suddenly woke up.
There was a servant next to him who was quite clever and replied immediately.
"Back to the second lady, Prince Ding came here just now. He said a few words to the master and his wife in the front hall, and the master and his wife burst into tears."
"Do you know what Prince Ding said to the master and his wife?"
"I don't know..."
Hearing this from the servant, she saw her mother crying hard and her father hanging herself directly. Su Qingxue felt the fire rising and rushed out of the house to argue with Nan Muchen.
"Where are you going, Miss Second?"
