"Master, what happened?"

The visitor said anxiously: "Go and inform the county magistrate quickly, saying that the prefect is here. He looks very anxious and doesn't know what happened."

When the disciple heard this, he immediately became serious: "Master, wait a moment, I will go and report to the county magistrate."

Song Minghao and Qin Yihan were sleeping when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Sir, the prefect came to visit late at night. There must be something urgent."

"The gatekeepers do not dare to open the city gate without authorization. Please give me permission from the county magistrate."

Song Minghao suddenly sat up from the bed and put on his clothes in a panic.

"Husband, what happened?"

Song Minghao explained while dressing: "My father came to visit late at night, something big must have happened."

"My father has always been calm in his work. If it was not urgent, he would not come over late at night, why would he wait until dawn."

Qin Yihan became nervous when she heard Song Minghao's words, her heart was beating wildly, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Husband, I will go with you."

"No, you are heavy and it is inconvenient to travel. I have to worry about your safety on the way to my husband. Just wait for the news at home. I will go to the city gate to pick up my father."

Qin Yihan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Please be careful on the road, husband. I'll wait for you at home."

"Ah."

Song Minghao hurried out of the door and rode directly to the city gate.

"Open the city gate."

"Sir... this... this is not a rule. According to the laws of the Yu Dynasty, unless there is an urgent need, the city gate is not allowed to be opened late at night."

The father naturally knew this law, but he still came, which proved that the father did have urgent matters.

"The most urgent thing now is to open the city gate."

"Hurry up, I'll take care of anything."

Under his pressure, the city gate guards had no choice but to open the city gate.

"Father, what happened?"

Song Zhiwei did have a worried look on his face. He glanced around, then pulled Song Minghao and said, "Quick, get to the car."

The man said, pointing to the carriage not far away.

The two got on the carriage, and Song Zhiwei hurriedly stuffed the bundle into his arms and said in a trembling voice: "Run away."

Song Minghao looked confused, dumbfounded, and couldn't believe what his father said.

"escape?"

"Father, what happened?" His voice was trembling.

Song Zhiwei's face turned pale: "A disaster is coming."

"Anyway, you should run away as far as possible. Find a place where you can hide your name anonymously. The money here is enough for you to last a lifetime."

Song Minghao was even more confused, his mind went blank, and he almost cried: "Dad, what happened?"

"I just received a letter from my family in Beijing."

"The prescription did not go to Prime Minister Su, but to Prime Minister Li."

"The emperor not only gave Prime Minister Li full authority to deal with the plague, but also asked Prime Minister Li to come in person to take Lin Shuangshuang to Beijing to reward him."

Song Minghao's expression changed drastically. He didn't need his father to tell him what was to come, but he knew what was waiting for him.

This means that he is finished, the Song family is finished, everything is finished...

He can't kill Lin Shuangshuang now to silence him, but if he doesn't silence him, Lin Shuangshuang will not let him go. In short, he will only die.

He asked with a trembling voice: "Xiang Su... Doesn't Xiang Su not care about us?"

"We are working for Mr. Su..."

Song Zhiwei's face was gloomy, and he sighed helplessly: "Don't expect him to protect you."

"What I'm most afraid of now is that Su Xiang sends people to kill people and silence them..."

"As long as you die, this matter will not be involved in Su Xiang, so now he wants to kill you more than anyone else."

Song Minghao was so frightened that he collapsed in the carriage and kept muttering: "It's over, it's all over."

"Why is this happening?"

"Didn't I say that I would get promoted and make a fortune? Why did it become like this..."

Song Zhiwei was already in tears at this time: "Son, you are still too young. You don't know that officialdom is like a battlefield, and everything changes rapidly..."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. You can run away quickly. Find a hidden place to hide for the next two days, and wait until the news has passed before contacting your family."

If parents are still alive!

"Dad, what will you do if I leave?"

"Will it implicate you?"

"This is a serious crime of mine. I am afraid of the crime and absconded. Will the Emperor let the Song family go?"

Song Zhiwei looked calm on the surface: "Don't worry, my father has already thought of a way out. At worst, if he doesn't become an official, he won't die."

"After all, Lin Shuangshuang is not dead. No matter how angry the emperor is, he will not just kill all the meritorious ministers."

"A meritorious minister?"

"Well, we have controlled this plague very well. This is the biggest credit..."

"But this plague was controlled by Lin Shuangshuang's magic medicine."

Song Zhiwei said with certainty: "No matter whose magic medicine it is, it is under control under our treatment."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Anyway, don't worry, we are all fine."

"You hurry up and leave overnight. Leave now..."

Song Minghao hesitated for a moment: "I'll go back to pick up my wife, and I'll be back immediately."

"Don't worry about other people. That woman is not a good woman. It will be a burden to take her with you..."

"No, I have to take Han'er with me."

"Dad, she is still pregnant with my child. Do you want to see your grandson before he is born..."

Song Zhiwei was stunned: "She is pregnant?"

"Well, it's been four months."

Song Zhiwei's face was filled with surprise: "Why didn't you tell your family earlier?"

"Both her father and mother don't like her. She is afraid that her mother will not allow her to give birth to the Song eldest son's grandson, so she wants to wait until the child is born before...telling the two elders."

"Nonsense, you didn't discuss such a big matter with your family."

"That's all, it's time like this, we can only do our best to protect the child in her belly."

"Go pick her up quickly, my father is waiting for you here."

"it is good."

Song Minghao arrived home in a hurry, while Qin Yihan was wandering uneasily at the Yamen Gate.

"Husband, what happened?"

"Come with me quickly. I'll explain it on the way."

Qin Yihan's expression changed: "Husband, are we going to flee?"

Seeing Song Minghao nodding, Qin Yihan turned around and ran to the bedroom.

"Madam, what are you doing? There is no time to waste..."

Song Minghao hurriedly dismounted and chased after him. Before he could run into the house, Qin Yihan came out holding a package.

"This is?"

"Gold and silver are very soft, and they are indispensable for escape. Don't think these things are worthless. When you really escape, every penny will be life-saving money..."

"The life of being on the run was too hard, I've been through it."

Song Minghao was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that Qin Yihan was once a rich official, but later his house was confiscated and he was exiled to live with his aunt...

"Madam is still thoughtful."

"Let's go, father is still waiting at the city gate."

On the way, Qin Yihan couldn't help but ask: "Is it related to Lin Shuangshuang?"

"Is it possible that the prescription did not reach Su Xiang's hands, but went directly to the emperor's hands?"
