Deng Ling heard this familiar voice and immediately raised his head and looked at it. Seeing his father appearing intact at the palace gate, he looked surprised and stood up happily and said, "Father!"

Deng Guozhong's face was deep. Looking at Erlang's weak and pale face, he couldn't help but feel distressed: "Isn't you asking you to have a good rest at home, why don't you listen to me?"

The two generals guarding the goal moved away the long halberd in their hands and lowered their heads to make way for Deng Guozhong.

Deng Ling stood up from the ground tremblingly, greeted him, held the gray-headed old marquis, and whispered: "Son is worried about his father... I feel at ease when I see that his father is safe."

Deng Guozhong supported the weak middle-aged man with his backhand and sighed: "Man has come out alive... But as a father, I'm afraid he will have no chance in the court."

Deng Ling was shocked, walked up and asked quietly, "Did your Majesty ask you to resign from your post?"

"It is not resigning, but to stop court. Your Majesty asked me to return to the palace to rest, and from now on, there is no need to go to court to participate in politics again." Deng Guozhong said this helplessly, with disappointment in his eyes.

Deng Ling suddenly panicked and said, "Your Majesty... Are you afraid of Deng? Father... You really acted impulsively this time. The child told you half a year ago... Su Ren could not save him, and if he saved him... he must be unfamiliar with Your Majesty. But you insisted on saving him."

"Su Ren, I have been taking care of you since I was a child. In his heart as a father, like you, like Afu, he is the bloodline of the father, Deng's younger generation. As a father... how can he be willing to see him die early? What's more, now Jiang is so arrogant, robbing merits from his father again and again... How can you bear it if you call him father?" Deng Guozhong whispered his thoughts, with helpless eyes.

Deng Ling knew that in addition to his dissatisfaction with the Jiang family, his father also felt reluctant to leave Su Ren. But no matter how reluctant he was, it was not worth mentioning before the interests of the entire clan. Deng Guozhong had to be forced to give up.

Deng Ling was silent with the help of his wife and father. When the three of them got into the car and sat down, he suddenly said, "If my father wants to protect Su Ren... it is better to wait until the East Mansion Office is sentenced to death, find a similar person and replace him? There are many children in the East Mansion Office. It is more than enough to rescue Lord Su during the execution."

Deng Guozhong turned his head, his eyes full of anticipation and said, "My son, are you talking seriously?"

Deng Ling nodded solemnly: "The efforts my father has made in nearly two years... I don't know. I also know that during the period when Lord Su was imprisoned, no matter how severely Dou Yuelan and Jiang Chengyi tortured him, he had never revealed any relationship with the Deng family... He was loyal to his father, so he should not give up directly because of this matter. But his father... Next, don't plead with Your Majesty again. Your Majesty is no longer as trusted as before. If you ask for it again, it will not only not be able to save Su Ren, but also implicate the Deng family."

Deng Guozhong hesitated a little: "You are really sure... can you rescue Su Ren?"

Deng Ling replied: "If you make some arrangements, this is not difficult."

Deng Guozhong lowered his head and was silent, his mind was temporarily confused.

After a while, he raised his head and looked at his son: "Aling, go and do it. I believe in your ability for my father. I must... rescue Su Ren."

Deng Ling nodded and replied, "Don't worry, father, I will leave this matter to me. The child will definitely rescue Lord Su and let him get together with his wife and children."

The carriage from Deng's mansion slowly left the palace gate, and soon disappeared into the setting sun and gradually disappeared.

In the ox cart parked at the side door, Jiang Chengyi finished watching the scene and ordered the driver to drive away.

Xue Qing sat in the wing with him and asked curiously: "Why did the lord let Deng Guozhong know about the Su Ren case so early and was handed over to the Eastern Palace Office? Today... Although His Majesty did not agree to Deng Guozhong's light sentence of Su Ren, he also reminded you not to hurt Deng and cut off all the connection between Su Ren and Deng. This shows that... Your Majesty still trusts Deng. What is the use of doing this?"

"It's useless, it's use." Jiang Chengyi closed his eyes and concentrated his energy on the bumpy car.

"What?" Xue Qing couldn't understand his words and stared at Jiang Chengyi with a blank look on his face.

"A Qing. Perhaps Your Majesty still relies on Deng's heart. But after this incident, Deng Guozhong definitely felt that Your Majesty had been guarding against Deng's family. The more determined Your Majesty was in the case of Su Ren, the deeper the dissatisfaction in Deng Guozhong's heart would be. He... He failed to get grace from Your Majesty, and he would take another risk. He would definitely arrange for people to rob the prison..." Jiang Cheng said firmly, guessing Deng Ling's plan in one sentence.

Xue Qing said in surprise: "Deng Guozhong will rob the prison? The prison guards of the East Mansion Department are strictly guarding. How can he have such an opportunity?"

"No...on the contrary, we need to make a loophole to give him an opportunity." Jiang Chengyi opened his eyes and looked directly at Xue Qing.

Xue Qing was puzzled: "What does lord mean?"

Jiang Chengyi smiled and said, "The reason why Zheng Bo can defeat Duan Yuyan is that he let Gong Shu Duan act, so that he can grasp the mistakes and take them down in one fell swoop. Now, we have to do this to the Deng family... and we need to let go of loopholes to make mistakes. Moreover,... the Dongfu Department is now in a state of uneasy, and we need to take this opportunity to rectify the problem."

After hearing this, Xue Qing was stunned and asked in a low voice: "Does the lord want to use Deng's hand to clean up the detailed works in the East Mansion?"

Jiang Chengyi finally expressed his agreement with what he said: "Yes. You finally guessed it right. In short, if the Deng family wants to do something secretly, there is no need to put a strict defense and observe it secretly. When the time is right, you can destroy the Deng family."

"But... now, except for being able to punish Su Ren, we may not be able to arrest the officials under his command." Xue Qing sighed and said, "Lin Mu, under Deng Guozhong, went to Su Ren's hometown last year and set a fire to burn out the Su home. His wife and clan members were all killed in the fire... and the list of confidants in his hands... has also been cleaned up. If the lord wants to investigate these people in the future, it will be even more difficult."

Jiang Chengyi smiled, "Do you think... why did I advise Your Majesty and propose that Deng Guozhong let him go for a while?"

Xue Qing asked foolishly: "Isn't it just to do it privately?"

Jiang Chengyi shook his head and said, "I beg Your Majesty for this matter to capture all the officials under Su Ren's involvement in this matter. These people are more or less connected with Deng Guozhong, so they will be related to the murder case in Yangzhou. If Your Majesty let Deng Guozhong return to the palace at this critical moment, these profit-seeking villains under Su Ren will inevitably think that Deng has lost the trust of the emperor and find a way to escape. Once they have the act of running away with the money, Deng will definitely take action. At that time, we only need to follow Deng Guozhong's Zhong general Lin Mu, and we will be able to capture all the people who are wronged one by one."

When Xue Qing heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "My lord is really a good plan! Such a series of tricks will make Deng's defenseless!"

Jiang Chengyi shook his head and smiled again, "This method is not what I thought of. But... it was... what your pavilion master thought of."

"People's Master?" Xue Qing shouted softly, although he was a little surprised, but he felt it was natural. Jiang Chengjia was extremely intelligent. Such a trick came from her, so it was normal.

Just as the Jiang Mansion carriage slowly drove into the back alley of Taixue Mansion, the Deng Mansion's carriage and horses also stopped in front of the gate of Taiwei Mansion.

Deng Fu and a group of people were waiting in front of the mansion. The servant beside Deng Ling stood at the steps with Mu Lun pushing him, stretching his neck to wait for his lord's return. Seeing the carriage entering the alley, the servant hurriedly pushed Mu Lun forward to meet him.

Deng Ling got off the car first. As soon as he landed, his legs and feet fell down. Fortunately, the servant caught him in time and let him sit down safely on the wooden wheel.

Immediately afterwards, Deng Ling's wife Cui jumped off the car board and reached out to help Deng Guozhong who was following behind.

Before Deng Fu looked at his father's expression, he complained angrily when he went up to him: "Father! You are finally back! Please make the decision for your child!"

As soon as he arrived, he plopped and knelt down in front of the servants in front of the mansion.

Deng Guozhong frowned and asked coldly: "What's the matter? It makes you so unconventional?"

Deng Fu accused him: "Father, it's not the son, but A Ling! He was not afraid of his elder brother and dared to hurt others. Look at the bruises on his son's face, which is caused by A Ling."

"What?" Deng Guozhong stared at the scars on his eldest son's face and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Why did A Ling beat you?"

He looked at Deng Ling, but saw his youngest son looking calm and calm, without any panic.

"Father... I learned from Lin Mu that you were going to the palace to meet His Majesty... I was anxious and afraid that something would happen to you, so I wanted to prepare a horse to chase him. Who knew... My brother refused to leave the mansion and stopped me in the mansion. He even threatened to kick Lin Mu out of Deng's mansion and never reuse it." Deng Ling took the lead in revealing the truth, not giving Deng Fu the chance to continue talking.

Deng Guozhong browed deeply, staring at his eldest son kneeling in front of him irritably, and asked, "Who gives you the courage... dare to kick my husband's men out of Deng's mansion?"

Du Fu Deng shouted injustice: "Father! My son has never said such a thing... It's because A Ling disrespects his elder brother first, you can't be so biased!"

Seeing him like this, Deng Guozhong said hatefully: "When is it? Do you still have the intention to blame A Ling? I will ask Lin Mu and the servants in the mansion to know the truth. Do you still need to shout for justice here? Is it stupid and useless! I still blame me for being biased? Get out of here! I don't want to attack you today! You'd better know more!"
