The one who forced Su Han out of power was her husband. No matter where she was, she was not as safe as Su Yingxue.

Despite the commotion outside the mansion and the approach of unknown danger, Su Han remained calm and collected as she approached Su Qingzhi. “Grandpa, the ladies have all been taken care of. Don’t worry,” she reassured him.

“Alright, Han’er, you can go to the backyard first.”

Su Qingzhi, clad in armor, furrowed his brows. This time, the visitors outside were likely unfriendly. As the head of the family, he had to protect everyone within the household!

Su Han frowned. She knew that although Su Qingzhi was old, he was still brave and skilled in combat. However, she also had her responsibilities to fulfill.

She stood beside Su Qingzhi and said firmly, “Grandpa, I am your granddaughter, and I will stand by your side. The children of the Su family fear nothing.”

Su Qingzhi’s eyes showed admiration as he patted Su Han’s shoulder. “Well said! The children of the Su family should be like this!”

Su Xinlan, with her son and daughter, hid in a side hall. She sneered disdainfully, “What’s the point of pretending? Is hiding not safe? What use is there for a delicate young miss? If rebel soldiers come in, they’ll kill you first!”

Beside her was a timid-looking boy of about twelve or thirteen. “Mother, are rebel soldiers coming? I’m scared, I don’t want to die!”

Su Xinlan held her son’s hand, intending to comfort him, but her daughter interrupted.

“Useless! Your maternal grandfather is a defender general. What rebel army would dare to attack here? Even if the emperor wanted to attack, he’d have to think twice!”

The girl was eloquent, and behind her not-so-beautiful appearance, there was a shrewdness.

Su Xinlan smiled satisfactorily. She held her son’s hand, comforting and educating him. “Hong’er, learn from your sister! You can’t be inferior to her!”

Ye Hong nodded understandingly and nestled into Su Xinlan’s arms.

He was different from his sister since he was little, being obedient. Whatever Su Xinlan said, he would do. In this situation, they sought refuge, and he didn’t understand anything. So, he stayed in his mother’s arms.

Ye Zhenzhen, who had been articulate earlier, rolled her eyes at her brother’s weakness.

She held Su Xinlan’s arm and speculated, “Mother, do you think the person who came is the Ninth Prince? I’ve admired Ninth Prince for a long time. It would be great to meet him today!”

“If the Ninth Prince comes, I’ll make sure you meet him!”

Su Xinlan patted Ye Zhenzhen’s hand.

She had met the Ninth Prince before. Although she didn’t like him, she was willing to fulfill her daughter’s wishes. Even though Ye Zhenzhen was already eighteen and engaged, there was no harm in broadening her horizons.

They hid in the side hall.

Upon learning that Su Yingxue had secretly gone to the front door of the medicine hut, Su Qingzhi was anxious to find her.

As he walked, he scolded, “This child is becoming more disobedient! How could she leave my side!”

If stray soldiers entered at this time and harmed her, it would be disastrous!

Su Qingzhi was anxious. Beside him, Su Dingheng, who was forced to follow, trembled in fear. “Father, Yingxue knows martial arts. Ordinary people can’t hurt her. Let’s return to the front hall and wait. It’s dangerous at the main entrance…”

As they neared the main entrance, the sounds of horse hooves and footsteps grew louder. Su Dingheng was so scared he wanted to shrink away.
