Su Bin turned to Qin Zhenzhen. He seemed to be asking her – didn’t you know about that?
Qin Zhenzhen cursed inwardly – of course I know, but I am not telling anyone!
Su Bin told her with a teasing tone.
“Isn’t it rumored that you are the lucky star of our family?”
“They might kidnap you and ruin my luck, so I won’t make it to Cultivated
Talent. ”
Qin Zhenzhen frowned. “You believe that?”
Su Bin said, “I have to believe that. That is the truth.” “So, it is my fault for dragging you down this time.”
“For your safety, you don’t have to follow me to the prefecture.”
“I want to see how they set me up!”
Speaking of this, Su Bin’s eyes turned cold.
Qin Zhenzhen couldn’t resist asking, “Do you have any idea why someone would try to stop you from taking the examination?”
Su Bin hesitated for a moment and then shared his thoughts, “I don’t believe we have any significant grudges with anyone, including our parents and siblings. The only plausible reason could be our family background.”
Qin Zhenzhen silently acknowledged his astute observation. He was indeed a sharp thinker, honing in on the crux of the matter.
Su Bin continued, “I believe someone is attempting to suppress us, ensuring we never succeed.”
Qin Zhenzhen probed further, attempting to stimulate his thinking, “Then who could it be? Perhaps a relative or a distant relative?”
Su Bin shook his head, dismissing the possibility, “I don’t think so, as my father has assured us that we have no relatives remaining.”
“Have you never considered the possibility that your father might have been lying?” Qin Zhenzhen asked directly.
Su Bin looked deeply into Qin Zhenzhen’s eyes and questioned, “Do you know something?”
Qin Zhenzhen shook her head, clarifying, “No, it’s just a guess.”
“But think about it. Those who want to harm you could be either your relatives or distant relatives, or they could be your enemies.”
“But you mentioned that your parents and siblings haven’t had any conflicts with anyone here, so the enemies must be in the capital.”
“If they are indeed enemies and they know you’re here, they might be worried that your presence could cause them trouble. Why wouldn’t they just kill you outright? Why go through all the effort to stop you from taking the imperial examination?”
Qin Zhenzhen’s words shocked Su Bin.
He had thought about this before.
But he had not expected that a village girl like Qin Zhenzhen would be able to think of such a complicated question.
He saw the wisdom in Qin Zhenzhen’s eyes.
When Qin Zhenzhen was talking nonsense in the court, Su Bin had noticed that too, when his sister was set up by Wang Yizhi.
It seemed that he was going to get to know Qin Zhenzhen again.
Su Bin looked at Qin Silong and drove him away directly. “Can I speak with your sister alone?”
Qin Silong was very displeased, but he still turned to Qin Zhenzhen.
Qin Zhenzhen nodded. “Fourth Brother, go and check on Su Ping.”
Qin Silong glanced at Su Bin. “If you dare bully my sister, don’t blame me for being rough!”
Su Bin was speechless.
How could a weak scholar like him bully Qin Zhenzhen?
He heard from his sister that Qin Zhenzhen drove away four or five people with a stick, including two strong men.
He was lucky not to be bullied by her!
But Su Bin was not worried that Qin Zhenzhen would force herself on him, either.
He already knew that Qin Zhenzhen really wanted to divorce him..
