A traitor

Chen Wenxuan escaped and his whereabouts were unknown for a while, which made Su Qinglang's current situation a bit tricky.

Although Qin Jian had promised not to touch him for the time being, Pei Yan couldn't bear it after all.

Several officials beat Su Qinglang to death for asking questions. Although Qin Huan was angry, without Qin Jian's assistance, Dali Temple would not give him face at all.

According to Su Qinglang's analysis, Pei Yan never thought of getting him to confess, but just wanted him to suffer a little.

It’s not enough to let him die, but it’s definitely not enough to live a bad life. It’s better to get the root of the disease because of it. After he is released from prison, he will be seriously ill and let him die. Even if he makes trouble with the emperor, he will at most find a scapegoat and be reprimanded a few times. That's all, it's the worst thing, demoting foreign transfers won't hurt people's lives, but it can kill him, which is obviously not a loss.

Qin Huan, Li Saisai, and even Cai Jun were all looking for Chen Wenxuan all over the city. Su Qinglang was imprisoned and had no choice but to sit in the prison and wait.

On this day, Mr. Su has endured several punishments, and just recovered a life from the jailer. He was lying on the quilt in the prison, falling asleep drowsily, when he saw a vague figure flickering at the prison door. , He settled his mind, stared at the man for a while, and then gradually came to his senses.

Seeing that the person who came was his father Su Zheshan, he was taken aback for a moment, then got up from the couch, a little in disbelief: "Father..."

Ever since the incident five years ago, his father has been unwilling to see him again. Even when he met in court, he would always blow his beard and stare. He wished he could kick him back to the west. What happened today, unexpectedly? He came to Tian prison to visit him.

Could it be that she couldn't stand Er Niang's nagging, or that she really felt that he was going to die, so before he was about to die, she was finally willing to take a look at him...

His father looked a little haggard, with a lot more white hair on his sideburns, his eyes froze when he looked at Su Qinglang, and then he looked at the criss-crossing scars on his body, his brows were deeply wrinkled, revealing a trace of worry and intolerance .

Aware of his gaze, Su Qinglang quietly covered the scars in front of him with his arms, but it was of no avail. His thin and slender arms seemed stretched in front of the scars all over his body. Road deep bloodstains.

As if someone had seen some secret, he looked a little embarrassed. He was at a loss for a while, then picked up a slightly clean dress from the earth bed and put it on, and walked with difficult steps to the prison door. Under Zheshan's gaze, he slowly lowered his head, and said in a low voice, "Father, why are you here..."

In his heart, he held the hope that his father had already begun to forgive. Although he had suffered so much, he felt very worthwhile and thankful. At least the father and son could finally clear up their old suspicions and let his father no longer hate him.

Just as he was thinking, a happy smile appeared on his lips, but when he saw a figure holding a jug and a wine glass standing behind Su Zheshan, the smile on his lips gradually froze and was replaced by What's more, is the unbelievable stunned look, and the instant pale face.

Su Zheshan looked at him for a moment, then said: "Lang'er, dad is here to see you..."

Su Qinglang looked at him, tears welled up in his eyes, he had been looking forward to these words day and night, and had waited for so many years.

But I didn't expect that today, in such a situation...

He staggered and took a step back, still with tears in his eyes: "Father...you... came to kill me?"

In his heart, he felt as if he had been stabbed severely, which was more painful than all the injuries on his body combined. He told himself no, but he had to tell himself yes.

Su Zheshan also shed tears, holding the door of the dungeon with his hands, choked up and said: "Lang'er, after drinking this cup, everything is over..."

"I don't want to die, Dad!"

Su Qinglang finally cried aloud, tears pouring down like rain, looked at Su Zheshan and said: "Tiger poison doesn't even eat its eggs, I thought about anyone coming to kill me, but I just didn't expect that this person would be you, it would be You, dad..."

"Have you ever thought about it, if I die here today, how can you be spared? Both of us have accidents, what will Erniang do?"

"Father, I know you hate me, give me a little more time, I will prove it, I have never let you down..."

He knelt down on the ground with a plop, looked up at Su Zheshan, and burst into tears: "Father, I beg you, give me a little more time, I can't die now, I still have things to do, you Give me a little more time... At that time, if you still hate me, the child will commit suicide in front of you..."

Seeing him cry, Su Zheshan also shed tears. He has always loved Su Qinglang, and even treated him as the treasure in his heart before.

How can you not be distressed if you want to execute your own son today?

However, in his opinion, if Su Qinglang is not killed, he will definitely cause even greater disasters in the future. It is true that tiger poison does not eat children, but it is not a last resort.

A person who is willing to betray his best friend in order to survive.Now, he knelt on the ground and begged bitterly.Therefore, in Su Zheshan's eyes, he is just greedy for life and afraid of death.

He firmly grasped the cell door with his fingers: "Do you still remember when you were a child, you were naughty and willful, you didn't want to run on the ground, and you didn't want to be hugged, and you laughed as soon as you got on your father's head..."

Su Qinglang looked up at him, remembering, of course he remembered, at that time, who didn't know that the Su family had a son, who treated him like a baby all day long.

He has taken advantage of his good looks since he was a child, and the whole house, even the grandparents who sweep the floor and watch the gate in the backyard are very happy to see him, and they all spoil him lawlessly.

Because of this, he has developed the problem of arrogance, losing his temper when things go wrong, skipping meals, and throwing things, and his father and second mother are reluctant to beat him, so they can only circle around him with the maids and servants.

Even that Fenghua's mother who died young, in his vague memory, regarded him as his own fate.

Every time he went out, he liked to ride on his father's head to visit the market. At that time, he was still young and didn't know right or wrong. He only knew that other people's children couldn't see anything while they were running on the ground. He is taller than the average adult, and every time his father carries him to show off to others that he is his son, he feels extremely proud, and feels that he has given his father face, but he has no idea why he is behind his back Pointing at his dad.

It's not that his father has never heard those ugly words, and it's not that he hasn't persuaded him in front of his father to stop pampering him so much, but his father never said those words. I didn't even take it to heart.

The young master of the Su family, the treasure of the Su family, wanted the stars not to pluck the moon, even if it was because of what happened back then, his father spoke viciously, but he never hit him with his hands.

So he didn't understand, why did he come here, why did he come to kill him, why...it was Dad who came to kill him...

He also heard Su Zheshan say: "Now, Dad really regrets that he neglected to discipline you when he was young, and made you into what you are now..."

He turned around, took a glass of wine, and said to Su Qinglang: "Son, Dad doesn't want to kill you with his own hands, here is a glass of wine, you can drink it yourself... Don't worry, after you drink it, there will still be a glass of Dad's, On Huangquan Road, we father and son will go on the road together..."

Su Qinglang shook his head again and again, begging with sobs: "Father... I beg you, don't kill me, don't kill me..."

He knew that his father's actions this time were mostly for the sake of Xie's family and the others in the past, but he didn't dare to tell the truth because there were people around.

He could only say: "Father, you still hate me and blame me, but what can I do... If it's just me at that time, it's fine, but you and Erniang are still in prison, how can I helplessly?" Watching you die... If you don't like it, I will change it, and I will definitely change it in the future, Dad, I beg you...don't kill me..."

Seeing him in chaos and begging bitterly, Su Zheshan burst into tears. He lowered his body and said in a deep voice: "So you sold Uncle Xie and the others. So, you betrayed yourself willingly and did that. Qin Huan's male favorite..."

Su Qinglang's face turned pale in an instant, as if someone had poured a basin of ice water over his head, and he froze on the spot, all he could think about was the word "male favorite".

They knew it, they all knew it, and after working so hard to hide it for so long, it was even more embarrassing to be told by their own father on the spot than to directly pick him up in public.

Feeling ashamed, he held the door of the dungeon and collapsed, curled up into a ball, and heard Su Zheshan say: "My son, father and mother would rather die than you do such a thing..."

Su Qinglang curled up as hard as he could, as if he didn't want anyone to see his face, hugged his body, and said in a trembling voice: "Father... yes, I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I, I will definitely die in the future... Wait for something Once it's over, I'll kill myself...it won't embarrass the Su family...please...please, don't kill me now..."

Seeing him like this, Su Zheshan couldn't bear it even more for a moment, sensing his fear, he stretched out his hand, wanting to touch his head, but finally stopped.

He also heard the people around him urging: "Master Su, if you don't hurry up, someone will come..."

Su Zheshan looked at him sadly for a moment as if he had never heard of it, with a look of pain flashing in his eyes, and finally turned around.

Seeing his acquiescence, the person holding the poisoned wine winked behind him, someone immediately stepped forward and opened the cell door, and several people walked towards Su Qinglang.

When Mei Liusheng and Sun Zizhong arrived, they saw Su Zheshan standing at the door of the cell in a daze, and then saw several people in the cell forcefully feeding Su Qinglang, although Su Qinglang was injured.

But in the struggle to survive, the strength of the struggle is also great, and I don't know how much poisoned wine I poured down.

Mei Liusheng's head buzzed, and before he could react, he rushed over there. He kicked open the cell door, cleaned up those people a few times, then hugged Su Qinglang, and slowly touched him hair, trembling voice: "Qing...Qinglang..."

Sun Zizhong rushed to him, looked at Su Qinglang who was lying in Mei Liusheng's arms half dead and coughing violently, his eyes widened, and then he looked at Su Zheshan: "Uncle, you..."
