Exile at the start? Milkball filming, hoarding billions of resources

Shen Zhaoning stood on high ground, watching the people surround the inspectorate.

Looking at the inspector's miserable appearance, she inexplicably thought of Sun Xiao.

Those who treat human life as worthless will eventually be entangled and die by the rampant weeds.

She turned to look at her maternal grandmother, only to see her grandmother's face filled with barely concealed hatred and joy.

She gently tugged at her grandmother's arm.

"Grandmother, if he dies here, won't it cause trouble for Grandfather and Uncle?"

Zhao Chunying said bitterly.

"He didn't die in the yard, so what trouble could he possibly cause?"

Hua Zhuyue gently persuaded her.

"This is surprising. The inspector represents His Majesty. If he dies in front of the Su family, it will likely displease His Majesty."

Shen Yu nodded and also tried to dissuade Zhao Chunying.

"The actions of the Inspector are all at His Majesty's behest. If something happens to the Inspector, it may be interpreted by those with ulterior motives as the Su family being dissatisfied with His Majesty."

If His Majesty were to learn that someone holding military power was dissatisfied with him, he would surely lose sleep all night.

At that time, this matter will likely be difficult to resolve amicably.

Hearing Shen Yu's words, Zhao Chunying clenched her sleeves in resentment.

"Are we just going to let him go like this?"

"If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have broken with Juan Niang, leaving her with regrets until her death."

Shen Zhaoning gently fluttered her eyelashes, slowly raised her head, and looked directly at Zhao Chunying with her bright black eyes.

"No, Mother has no regrets. Everything she did came from the bottom of her heart, and she has never resented you."

"Grandmother, Mother would definitely want you to live a good life and to live to be a hundred years old. Please don't do anything that would worry Mother, okay?"

Zhao Chunying sighed and said to the housekeeper.

"Go, rescue the inspector."

The steward led his servants to the inspector and shouted to the people below.

"Please don't act rashly, everyone!"

Upon seeing the Su family step forward, the people retreated and ceased their attacks on the inspector.

The steward helped the inspector up and shouted loudly to his subordinates.

"Quickly, go and fetch a doctor."

Although the steward rescued the inspector, he forgot about the inspector's subordinates and confidants.

When the inspector learned of this news, his face turned grim.

"You...you have treated me like this, I will not let you get away with this."

Zhao Chunying gave a cold laugh.

"You'd better think about how to explain to His Majesty that you wronged my son."

The inspector remained silent, his face grim.

Most of his trusted confidants and subordinates, whom he had cultivated for many years, were killed or wounded, and he lost the support of the people. He tried to frame the Su family father and son, but his plan was exposed.

His Majesty is extremely concerned about his reputation. If these matters were to reach His Majesty's ears, His Majesty would certainly not let him off the hook.

Since we're going to die anyway, we might as well bring Su Shaoqing down.

His Majesty might treat his family well, given his unwavering loyalty.

He dragged his crippled leg, slowly got off the bed, and staggered away.

Upon seeing this, the servants of the Su family reached out to stop him.

"Your Excellency, our young master will be back soon. Perhaps you could wait a little longer?"

The inspector frowned in displeasure, his tone laced with murderous intent.

"What? Do I, a dignified inspector, need to report to a commoner when I come and go?"

"Who does Su Shaoqing think he is, to demand that I report everything to him!"

The servants hurriedly bowed.

"You've misunderstood, sir. I didn't mean that."

The inspector snorted coldly and dragged his crippled leg out.

When Su Shaoqing returned with the craftsmen and Xing Bo, the inspector had already left.

Zhao Chunying told Su Shaoqing what had happened during the day.

Zhao Chunying sneered.

"You guys didn't see that scene. It was so satisfying. I've never felt so comfortable in my life."

Su Shaoqing's expression changed drastically.

"Don't pursue a cornered enemy; Mother has gone too far!"

"You saved him, which is a good deed; how can you insult him like that?"

Su Shaoqing hurriedly put on his outer robe and called for his servants.

"Quickly, come with me to the Inspector's residence to apologize."

Zhao Chunying was puzzled.

"I didn't say anything. I just told him to think about how to explain it to His Majesty."

Su Shaoqing sighed repeatedly.

"That's enough!"

"The inspector is stupid and didn't think of this aspect. My mother reminded him, and knowing that his death is imminent, he will definitely retaliate."

Su Shaoqing hurriedly mounted his horse and galloped away.

Upon arriving at the gate of the residence of the Inspector General, he saw a corpse hanging in front of the gate.

The deceased's hair was disheveled, he wasn't wearing shoes, and his legs were twisted at an eerie angle.

The bluestone slabs underfoot were covered in blood, and Su Shaoqing's name was written on them.

The door was covered in bloody fingerprints and Su Yuanqiao's name.

Su Shaoqing shakily approached the corpse, brushed aside its disheveled hair, and saw the inspector's twisted, bluish face.

Su Shaoqing hurriedly carried the body down and handed it to his subordinates.

"Quickly, get a doctor."

"The rest of you come with me inside to search. We must find them alive."

He and his men searched the inspector's residence for a long time, but they didn't find a single living person.

Clearly, these people have already left Guanyang.

Whether they went to the Emperor to lodge a complaint or fled for their lives remains unknown.

Su Shaoqing had no interest in exploring further and slumped to the ground.

Zhao Chunying arrived late and was somewhat puzzled by the scene.

She glanced at the corpse on the ground.

"W-Is this dog poop?"

"Did he know he had made a terrible mistake and commit suicide out of shame?"

Zhao Chunying pointed to the name on the door panel and sighed.

"This piece of shit has surprisingly nice handwriting."

"Why did he write your names before he died?! Was he trying to curse you?! That piece of shit can't even behave himself before he dies!"

Hearing his mother's voice, Su Shaoqing spoke weakly.

"Mother...this time, our family is truly facing a terrible disaster."

Zhao Chunying waved her hand.

"Impossible, we didn't do anything wrong."

"The people have all seen that the inspector was trying to frame us, and they can all testify for us."

Su Shaoqing slowly rose, leaning against a pillar, his steps unsteady.

"Yes, the people all saw that we had a grudge against the inspector. Now that the inspector is dead, he even wrote our names on his deathbed. Anyone can see that we were so angry that we killed him to silence him."

Zhao Chunying cursed in a hurry.

"Nonsense! Who killed him! If his deeds were reported to His Majesty, he would surely die. Why would we kill someone who is already doomed?"

Su Shaoqing sneered.

"His Majesty won't care; all he knows is that he finally has an excuse to execute us."

"Mother, the Su family is completely finished this time. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have emptied the family fortune. I could have left some for Yu-ge and Tuan-tuan."

"The two children are so pitiful. They just found their maternal grandfather, and now they have to be separated again."

Su Shaoqing ignored Zhao Chunying and went home like a walking corpse.

Xing Bo pulled the craftsman aside and spoke excitedly.

"As long as there are enough supplies, this water diversion project can definitely be accomplished."

"Once this river channel is opened, northern Xinjiang will no longer be troubled by drought, and it will also solve Qinghe's urgent problem."
