The investigation into the case of the Su Family in the Capital City colluding with enemy nations has been conducted by the Ministry of Justice for over half a month and finally concluded today.
The Su Family is a prominent clan, with eighteen members serving as officials in the court, regardless of their legitimacy. Apart from Su Shouli who was executed immediately, Su Zixiao was reinstated to his original position as a Colonel in the imperial guard. The remaining sixteen, twelve will be executed after autumn.
These twelve had overtly or covertly assisted the Empress Dowager and had secretly traded with either Wei Country or Qiangrong people, with undeniable evidence. Among them is Su Zixiao's father, Su Shoucheng.
The surviving members include the elderly Su Wenzhong and his second daughter, a female official in the Imperial Palace, a provincial governor of illegitimate birth, and a document handler at Dingbei Pass.
