Chapter 1972 The Regent Princess is about to faint again
My uncle had a sullen face, and he was so angry and panicky that he didn't know how to vent it. When he saw my aunt rushing over, he snorted coldly.
"Your good son! He has caused a terrible disaster!"
My aunt was already at a loss, hoping that her husband could bring their son back safely, but she didn't expect to hear such words, and she staggered another step forward.
"Wha...what?"
The uncle seemed to be relieved, but his son was his own after all. Looking at his aunt's appearance, he knew he could not help at all, and he was not in the mood to comfort her. He walked around her with his hands behind his back and walked into the mansion.
My aunt stood there in a daze, unable to react for a long time. In the end, she was supported by the maid beside her and walked back.
She was also afraid, but since it was about her only son, she had to bite the bullet and go to the study.
My uncle was sitting alone in the study, frowning and thinking about how to solve the problem. When he saw her come in, he glared at her unhappily.
"What are you doing here! Get out!"
My aunt has been managing the Su family's finances for so many years, and my uncle has been pretty good to her. This is the first time she has been treated like this, but she can't blame him and can only shed tears.
"Master, Zhao'er is our only son, you have to save him!"
"There's no way to save a rebellious son! Let him fend for himself!" When the uncle thought that the one whose head was broken by Su Zhao was actually the Duke's nephew, he wished he had never given birth to this son.
But what my aunt said was right. Su Zhao was the only male in the Su family, and we had to find a way to rescue him no matter what.
After driving away the aunt, the uncle sighed in the study, came out and asked people to prepare extremely generous gifts, ready his horse and went out, shamelessly going to the Duke's Mansion to plead for his rebellious son.
Shi Li naturally heard about the commotion in the front yard. He quietly asked someone about it and found out what happened. He then frowned.
"Why would you beat up Duke Zhao's nephew for no reason?"
Shi Xuan, who was standing nearby, also found it incredible. "What on earth happened in the busy city that caused Su Zhao to start a fight just by passing by?"
They all felt that something was not right, but now they couldn't see Su Zhao at all and had no way to ask.
Shi Li felt that Duke Zhao seemed somewhat familiar. She thought about it carefully and finally thought of Zhao Huai, whom she had met before.
"Duke Zhao is Zhao Huai's father, right?"
Thinking of the way Zhao Huai pestered her last time, Shi Li just felt annoyed, but there was also a trace of uneasiness in her heart.
Her intuition was usually pretty accurate.
After thinking it over for a while, she decided to find a way to meet Su Zhao's servant and ask him what was going on.
Now there was no one in charge of the Su family, and my uncle was out, so my aunt just hid in the yard and cried silently. Shi Li didn't have to spend much effort to find the book boy who came back to report the news.
But he didn't expect that when Shi Li found him, she was actually holding a small bag in a sneaky manner and trying to sneak out.
"stop."
Shi Li knew that something was fishy, so he signaled for someone to stop the servant, gagged him before he could open his mouth, and tied him up and took him back to his own yard.
Although the servant boy struggled hard, it was of no avail and he was forced to kneel in the yard.
Shi Li asked someone to watch outside the yard, and then took out the cloth to gag the servant boy.
"Tell me clearly what you did."
The servant boy rolled his eyes around, lowered his head and trembled, "Cousin, please forgive me. I accompanied the young master in trouble. When the master and the mistress rescue the young master, they will definitely not forgive me. I don't want to suffer physical pain, so I want to escape. How can I control the young master!"
He spoke sincerely and it didn't sound like he was lying at all.
Shi Li was half-believing and half-doubting, and continued to ask: "Tell me first, what happened outside? Why did my cousin hurt someone?"
The book boy broke out in a cold sweat. His aunt had never asked about it, but Shi Li actually asked it out.
He stammered and spoke hesitantly.
"I, I followed the young master out of the academy. When we passed by, those people started fighting for some reason. The young master was hit by something thrown by someone, so he rushed over to argue, and then... took out the inkstone and hit the person."
"You follow your cousin and let him hold the inkstone himself?" Shi Li immediately heard something wrong and stared at the servant.
The book boy's face turned pale.
