406 It Has Nothing to Do With Him
After the subordinates pulled the sacrificial soldiers down, Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu.
He said, “Xiaolu, if there’s anything you don’t understand, let’s go out and talk first. If you believe me, I can help you sort it out.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi and nodded. “Okay, if you can help me, I’ll thank you first.”
Zhou Zhi was born in the capital and he was already involved in politics. Zhou Zhi definitely knew what kind of person Yan Qingyun was.!!
The two of them left the dark prison and returned to the main hall.
Su Xiaolu told Zhou Zhi what had happened at home in the past few days.
Zhou Zhi listened quietly.
After saying that, Su Xiaolu asked Zhou Zhi, “This matter is a little complicated. Help me analyze if this matter has anything to do with Yan Qingyun.”
Su Xiaolu did not believe that this matter had nothing to do with Yan Qingyun.
However, from the confessions of the sacrificial soldiers, Yan Qingyun really had nothing to do with these things.
They belonged to Qi Xinyue, and the sacrificial soldiers were secretly raised by her. They only worked for Qi Xinyue, and most of the things they did was because of her jealousy.
If it was related to Yan Qingyun, then they would have done more than that. Yan Qingyun had been an official for many years. Didn’t he have political enemies that he hated?
Su Xiaolu waited for Zhou Zhi to answer her question.
Zhou Zhi smiled lightly and said, “Minister Yan is a scheming person. He’s favored by the emperor because he has one advantage, which is that he knows how to adapt to the situation.”
“I often meet with him in the capital. I have some understanding of his style of doing things. Let me put it this way. If something is beneficial to him, he will definitely do it. On the other hand, if it is not beneficial to him, he will definitely not drag it out. He will decisively cut off this person, no matter who they are.”
“Four years ago, there was an embezzlement case in the capital. It was a cousin of his wife’s family. Because of the commotion, he couldn’t hold it in anymore and came to look for him for protection, hoping that he could resolve the matter. He first pretended to stabilize that person, then directly entered the palace to apologize.”
“Because of his impartiality, the Emperor did not blame him, so he was not implicated at all. If he covered up for him and the matter recurs in the future, this will become his weakness. He deeply understands this principle, so he dealt with it without hesitation. That cousin even drank with him a few days ago.”
After Zhou Zhi finished speaking, he looked at Su Xiaolu seriously and said, “Xiaolu, this matter seems to have nothing to do with him, but I don’t think it’s as simple as it looks.”
“He must know about it. He might even know about Yan Mian’s disappearance back then. Because it’s not good for him to say it, he didn’t say it. As for this assassination, I believe he didn’t do it either because it doesn’t affect him whether your family returns or not for the time being. His wife, Qi Xinyue, is different.”
“General Qi is still alive. General Qi has made a lot of contributions. He has always valued relationships. If he finds out that the loss of his only granddaughter was man-made and not an accident, Qi Xinyue’s life will not be saved. After so many years of separation, someone has to pay for it. Yan Qingyun is clean, but Qi Xinyue isn’t.”
Zhou Zhi explained his analysis to Su Xiaolu in detail.
Su Xiaolu pursed her lips and looked at Zhou Zhi. “So, Yan Qingyun knows about this. He didn’t do anything. He didn’t help Qi Xinyue or stop her.”
Zhou Zhi nodded. “That’s most likely the case. If my guess is correct, it won’t be long before you know the truth. This truth should be in Qi Xinyue’s suicide note.”
Su Xiaolu looked at Zhou Zhi in confusion. “She committed suicide so quickly? Why?”
Zhou Zhi smiled. He looked at Su Xiaolu and said, “Because she’s a mother who cares a lot about her children. Apart from Qi Xinyue, none of the many concubines in the Yan Manor has had children in the past few decades. Minister Yan is not a sentimental person. She has sacrificed a lot for her children, so she will make the final choice not to implicate the children.”
“Yan Qingyun won’t protect her?”
Su Xiaolu felt that Zhou Zhi’s guess made sense, but she did not know Yan Qingyun well. She did not know how much Zhou Zhi could be right.
Hearing Su Xiaolu’s question, Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu and said slowly, “Xiaolu, Minister Yan, is a logical person. Protecting Qi Xinyue now has no benefits to him. He can only be punished for it.”
“But hasn’t Qi Xinyue been married to him for decades? Doesn’t he care about their relationship at all?”
Su Xiaolu had doubts in her heart. Was there really someone who had been husband and wife for decades and did not care about their past relationship at all when they were in trouble? Was there really someone so cold-blooded and heartless?
Zhou Zhi did not say anything else. Su Xiaolu looked at him and felt that Zhou Zhi’s smiling eyes seemed to be tainted with sadness. In an instant, Su Xiaolu felt something and remembered Zhou Zhi’s poison.
Some people could even disregard their own flesh and blood. They even hated the child they had carried for ten months just because of a ridiculous prophecy. They personally poisoned him time and time again and tried to kill him time and time again.
In this world, there was no relationship more intimate than that of mother and child. Even such a relationship could be disregarded, let alone one between husband and wife.
“Xiaolu, I’ll continue to interrogate these people. If I find out anything, I’ll send someone to tell you.”
Zhou Zhi said softly.
Su Xiaolu glanced at Zhou Zhi and nodded. She stood up and said, “Alright, I’ll go home first.”
Su Xiaolu walked to the door and stopped. She turned around and said to Zhou Zhi, “Remember to take your medicine on time. If your leg hurts, you can massage it more. A massage can relieve the pain.”
With that, Su Xiaolu left. This time, she did not look back.
Zhou Zhi looked at Su Xiaolu’s back. He slowly lowered his eyes and looked at his legs with a cold gaze.
“Heh—”
He chuckled and looked up again. There was only endless coldness in his eyes.
From her initial suspicion and indifference to her active concern now, he seemed to have succeeded halfway.

Su Xiaolu had just arrived at the entrance of Zhou Zhi’s residence when she saw a familiar figure at the door.
Zhou Heng looked anxious as he spoke to the guard, Jin Liu.
Jin Liu was very cold. “How can you see my master just because you want to? Do you think I’ll believe you if you say that you know Miss Su? If you cause trouble in front of my master’s residence again, I won’t let you off easily.”
Jin Liu was abnormally cold. His eyes seemed to be able to turn into knives as he looked at Zhou Heng. His hand stopped on the sword at his waist.
When Su Xiaolu saw this, she called out, “Third Brother.”
Zhou Heng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Su Xiaolu’s voice.
Jin Liu looked at Zhou Heng and his expression instantly softened. “You really know Miss Su. I’m sorry for offending you just now.”
After Jin Liu finished speaking, he turned to Su Xiaolu and said, “Miss Su, are you going back? Just now, this person said that he’s your relative. He wants to see you and my master later. I thought he was a little suspicious and was mean to him. Miss Su, please don’t be offended.”
