Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 486

Liu Shuyun snorted coldly, Su Jinxun thought that if he came with great fanfare, he would believe that he intended to surrender to the third prince?
Without showing some sincerity, how could the third prince easily trust the Su family?

Just when Liu Shuyun thought that Su Jinxun was about to leave, someone suddenly came to report.

"My lord! Someone came from Mr. Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and they said that Mr. Chen Li, who was about to take office, was attacked in Meilang outside the city."

Liu Shuyun was taken aback immediately, he stood up and hurriedly said: "What? Where is the person? But nothing happened?"

"It has been sent to the Yuanji Hall in the city. At this moment, the person is sober, but..."

"But what?" Liu Shuyun asked eagerly when he saw that the entourage hesitated to speak.

"The right leg was cut off by the assassin's sword."

What?Liu Shuyun's face was serious. Who was it that assassinated Chen Li on the way to take office?

Assassinating an official ordered by the court is a capital crime, who is so daring?
Liu Shuyun suddenly suspected that he had killed Su Jinxun. Could it be that the Su family sent someone to do it?

But before he turned his head to look at Su Jinxun, he heard a "bang".

As soon as Su Jinxun slapped the table, he was so angry that he cursed, "Who the hell dares to assassinate the imperial court official?"

"Liu Shangshu! You have to ask Jingzhao Mansion Yin to investigate this matter carefully. I will see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall. Meilang is only ten miles away from the capital, and someone dares to make a move? At the foot of the emperor, It's too rampant to be clear about the universe."

Seeing the righteous indignation on Su Jinxun's face, Liu Shuyun was suddenly a little uncertain.

"Hey! I came to Beijing to take up the post. Who would have thought that those people with no conscience would do such unreasonable things for a fifth-rank official position. This matter must be reported to the emperor. It is so rampant that it must be strictly investigated."

Liu Shuyun also sighed, and then said that this matter must be played.

Su Jinxun quickly agreed, "That's right! We must deal with these villains as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no peace in the court."

"Master Chen Li said just now that they were all dressed up as bandits to steal his money." The servant said.

"How could there be such a bold bandit under the feet of the emperor? They are just pretending! If they only take money, why do they want to kill people?"

The servant glanced at Liu Shuyun, "I didn't intend to kill him, I just wanted to catch him and ask him to pay the family a ransom. It's just that Mrs. Chen Li got angry and scolded the other party a few times, and the other party took off his leg as a lesson." .”

"As an official of the imperial court, how can he take office without a leg?" Liu Shuyun was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

"A good man doesn't take immediate losses, he will give you money if he asks for it, and he will find a way to grab it later. Why are you so reckless and ruined your bright future?"

Liu Shuyun and Su Jinxun both sighed. To be an official in Dayun Dynasty, one must have a straight face and no obvious defects in body, hair and skin.

How can he be an official without a leg?It's detrimental to the image of the imperial court!
"Go and find out, and see what's going on with your health." Liu Shuyun sent his subordinates to check on the other party's physical condition. After all, this official position does not wait for anyone, does it?

"Since that's the case, I won't bother you anymore. However, please take what happened just now to your heart no matter what."

Liu Shuyun sighed, since Chen Li couldn't be an official, he could only choose among those recommended.

However, he was worried about choosing other factions, and the beloved disciple of the Chief Assistant's family?
Liu Shuyun was a little hesitant, the chief assistant was not easy to offend, but Su Wenzhou was the most suitable candidate at present.

Su Jinxun hurried back to the mansion, and immediately found Su Yizhao.

"Do you know about this?" Su Jinxun asked about the assassination of Chen Li. At first, he also suspected that Su Yizhao sent someone to do it, but after thinking about it, he thought it was impossible.

Su Yizhao would not do such a risky thing, and never mind.

"I received the news before, otherwise why do you think Chen Li is still alive? But I saved his life!"

Su Yizhao nodded, this was within the plan.

Su Jinxun immediately asked, "What's going on?"

"The news that Chen Li is going back to Beijing to reinstate his post didn't come out just now. In fact, I have heard about it for a long time. You also said that there are many people watching the position of Hubu Langzhong, so Chen Li's safety is very important."

Su Yizhao blew on the tea leaves floating on the tea water, "The Chen family sounds like a scholarly family, but at worst, it's the former dynasty that has fallen into disrepair. How powerful is it?"

"You even thought of this?" Su Jinxun was shocked, "It's just a fifth-rank, and it's worth being like these people?"

"It depends on what kind of official this is. The household department is the money bag of the imperial court, and the household department doctor also supervises the taxation of various places. Who doesn't want to install their own people?"

In fact, it was Zong Zeming who gave her the news, and it was Zong Zeming who rescued Chen Li. Su Yizhao really didn't think so much this time.

Because she thought it was a fifth grade, she didn't expect that someone would snatch it by force, and she really didn't use bean buns as dry food.

"But Liu Shuyun didn't reply me directly, he just said to think carefully."

Su Jinxun thought of Liu Shuyun's words, and was a little uncertain about what he meant.

"Don't worry! Tomorrow at the latest, he will send you a message, let Sanbo get ready!"

Su Yizhao was still very confident. Although Su Jinxun felt that this kid had never missed a shot, his confidence really shocked him.

"The emperor will definitely talk to you tomorrow, so just tell me." Su Yizhao reminded him, and then went back to rest.

The emperor promised to take a few days off, and after two days, he will go to Dali Temple to order Mao. The happy days are gone forever.

Su Jinxun was dubious this time, but the answer he was looking forward to finally got a satisfactory answer tomorrow.

The emperor also personally asked him to go to the imperial study for questioning, during which time he jokingly asked him if he was going to Liu's mansion to ask for an official position.

This matter is absurd to say, after all, no high-ranking official would make such a big fanfare to ask for an official position.

Unexpectedly, Su Jinxun would go to ask for it in person. This would indeed be despised by everyone.

However, the emperor didn't blame him, instead he felt that Su Wenzhou hadn't been promoted for so many years, so he really needed to make a move.

The big stone in Su Jinxun's heart fell to the ground, and he went back to work with peace of mind.

"We still have to take care of the needs of the boss! We can't let the old ministers feel cold."

The emperor called Liu Shuyun, the official secretary, and said these two sentences without thinking, but Liu Shuyun already understood what the emperor meant.

"That's what you said, and the minister thinks so too."

Within a day, the appointment document from the Ministry of Officials came down, and Su Wenzhou immediately went to the Ministry of Households to handle errands.

E Chongming was still very surprised when he knew this, and he was shocked when he learned that Chen Li was still alive after being attacked; but he was even more shocked when the Ministry of Officials issued a dispatch appointment document in just one night.

"This old bastard is really shameless, and he actually went to ask the emperor for an official position?"

E Chongming felt that he wanted face and couldn't do such a thing.

For so many years, he has been in the limelight, and when he seeks an official position for his lover, he only operates secretly, lest people say that he is using power for personal gain.

"Oh! Mistake!" E Chongming was annoyed.

So, the next day, Su Yizhao heard the news that Meng Lingxi had made great contributions in compiling "Da Yun Hui Dian" and was promoted to the Imperial Academy.
