Chapter 1757: Chapter 1757: Everyone Must Try

Zimo frowned upon hearing this.

He raised his hand and firmly tapped her forehead again, speaking annoyedly.

"What are you thinking about? Gifts? Your mother could easily take you into the palace, and you could empty the royal treasury if you wanted. As for Su Wan... he must die!"

He dangerously narrowed his dark eyes as he spoke.

"Uncle... Uncle?!"

Jin Jian’s eyes widened as he looked at the young girl in front of him.

The uncle she referred to, he couldn’t be thinking of that person, could he?

No, it couldn’t be. There was only one Elder Princess in the Liang Kingdom, the emperor’s own sister, but as far as he knew, the Elder Princess had long been divorced from her husband and had no children.

"Miss, you... you are...?"

"I told you, you don’t need to worry about who we are, just know one thing... Su Wan is done for!"

Lin Caisang interrupted him, throwing the remark at him.

"Uh."

Jin Jian was choked by her words.

Su Wan being done for was naturally the most delightful news for him, but who exactly was this girl?

However, it seemed that it really wasn’t his place to inquire further, especially if the uncle she mentioned truly was the emperor, then he most definitely shouldn’t ask.

"Yes, yes, the Miss is right."

He hastily agreed.

"Commandery Governor Jin, collecting evidence of crimes should be something you are quite adept at, right? The crimes Su Wan has committed over the years in Lotus Commandery, you should personally gather evidence, then dispatch it urgently to the emperor at 800 li per hour. Also, before you send the document, I have something for you to deliver along with it, remember to come find me."

After Lin Caisang finished speaking, she turned around and left with Zimo.

"Phew!"

Jin Jian watched as the two left, exhaling deeply, wiping the sweat off his forehead with his hand.

"Steward, what do you think about this matter?"

He asked the white-haired old man who had just walked in from the door.

"My lord, no matter what, you must seize this opportunity. Whether you can succeed or not, you’ve got to try," the old man said earnestly, watching the departing figures of Lin Caisang and Zimo.

"Commander Su has been wreaking havoc in Lotus Commandery for many years now. You know the kind of lives the common people are living.

Now that there is finally an opportunity, if it’s not seized to send Commander Su directly to the chopping block, the people of Lotus Commandery will continue to be vampires for the Su Family to drain dry."

"Yes, indeed."

Jin Jian agreed wholeheartedly with the steward’s words; Su Wan had indeed become despised by everyone in Lotus Commandery.

"My lord, I’ve heard that the northern camp has already been taken over. The person sent to assume control was carrying a Death Exemption Token, and now, Su Residence has been completely surrounded. Many people have already gone to see what’s happening, including many officials from the commandery."

Encouraged by his assent, the steward added.

"It seems that these officials also have many grievances against Commander Su."

"Pfft."

Hearing the steward’s words, Jin Jian snorted.

"Steward, your point is right... it’s not just many grievances. Which official here in the governor’s office doesn’t want to deeply stab Su Wan a few times? Our salaries as officials are already low, barely enough to support our families.

Over the years, we’ve even had to take a large portion out to give gifts to Commander’s office, while starving our own families, or devising ways to extract it from the common people...

Alas!"
