Chapter 12

The gate of Su Mansion.

When the guard at the gate saw the carriage coming back, he hurriedly ran into the mansion with a happy face.

"Master, madam, the eldest son is back!"

"Are you back?" In the flower hall, Cui Shi, who was anxious to wipe away tears, stood up in great surprise, supported Mother Luo's hand, and went out, "Pu'er must have found Ning'er before coming back!"

Su Yi also stood up at this moment, and strode out with his wife.

A group of people just met at the entrance of the flower hall.

Seeing that Su Junning's hair was loose, all the jewelry on her body was gone, her complexion was not very good, and she was still wearing Su Yuzheng's robe, her heart sank.

"What's the matter, go out and go shopping in the night market, why did something happen, ask your mother to see if you are injured!" Cui hurriedly led people over.

Su Yi looked at the eldest son.

Su Yuxuan hurriedly said, "Mother, don't worry, the fourth sister was not injured, but was a little frightened. There were thieves who robbed the property, but just happened to meet Mr. Shen who was patrolling the city defense battalion of the Ministry of War, and rescued the fourth sister."

What he said was the version he knew so far, but Su Yi has been in the ups and downs of the officialdom for many years, how could he not see that there is something tricky here, so he just nodded for the time being.

"Okay, as long as people are fine, everything outside of us is a trivial matter. Go sit in the living room first, and take it easy."

Then he waved his hand and asked the housekeeper Wu Chenghai to push away all the servants, only the whole family and a few close servants entered the flower hall.

After sitting down, Mrs. Cui asked softly, "I met some kind of villain today. Before Nan Xu was sent back in a coma, I felt very uneasy. There is such a dangerous thing under the feet of the emperor. "

Su Junning took a sip of tea and replied after her body became warmer.

"I heard a few words from Mr. Shen who rescued me on the way. It seems that there has been a group of thieves in Bianjing recently who specifically picked on women and children. Today, Nanxu has fallen for their tricks. I was implicated. At that time As soon as the officers and soldiers arrived, there was chaos in the market, and the eldest brother and the third brother were dispersed by the flow of people. I didn't expect that the person who attacked Nanxu had accomplices, so they took me away in the chaos."

Hearing this, Su Yi's complexion quickly darkened.

With a cold snort, he slapped the table hard, "The Ministry of Criminal Justice is really doing a good job. If there is such a hidden danger in Beijing, I didn't inform the court early, but I joined forces with the Ministry of War to suppress it. Now there is no big trouble. If something really happened today , I must ruthlessly read Xu Fu's old book!"

"The thief is rampant. I'm afraid it's been a long time since the incident happened. If this incident breaks out, it will not only disturb the hearts of the people, but also make the emperor feel that the Ministry of Punishment is useless. Xu Fu must have no choice but to ask the Ministry of War for reinforcements. Let's settle this matter." Su Yuzhen analyzed beside him.

He is a student, and he will also take the imperial examination to become an official in the future, so he has a thorough analysis of the affairs of the court.

At this moment, the youngest Su Yu'an quickly stepped into the flower hall.

After returning to the mansion to report the news, he took his servants out to look for Su Junning, and it was only after he got the news that Su Junning had returned to the mansion that he returned in a hurry.

After coming in to salute the elders, he said.

"The group of people who trafficked women and children have already been caught. They tried to lie that they were servants of the Su family and sneak out of the city, but Master Shen from the city defense battalion saw the clue and arrested them in one fell swoop. By the way, Master Shen asked me to take The Fourth Sister's badge is brought back."

As he spoke, he handed over Su Junning's badge.

Cui was puzzled, "Why did you lose your badge?"

"The gang of thieves robbed me of my valuables, and found that they couldn't get out of the city, so they robbed me of my badge as well." Su Junning explained.

She didn't say that she gave it on her own initiative. At this time, there is really no need to highlight the heroism of her daughter's family.

But it can be explained.

That is to say, Su Yi asked a few more questions, and learned that the one who saved his daughter today was the son of General Mingwei. The Shen family who had just been bullied by him in the court hall felt a little embarrassed.

But the gentleman is frank, since he still has to repay his kindness, he ordered Su Yuxuan to bring a gift the next day, and went to the door to thank him.

Naturally, Su Yi won't go. Firstly, he is a senior member of the second rank, with a high status, so there is no need to personally thank a junior. Su Yuzheng is the eldest son of the Su family, and his status is enough. Secondly, Shen Qianwei is indeed He saved Su Junning, but that was his job after all.

Besides, Su Yushi has more important things to do, impeaching Xu Fu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment!

This old thief, if he hadn't concealed the hidden dangers in Bianjing, he would not have allowed the young girl to go out. Fortunately, his delicate baby was safe, and if something happened, he would have to work hard.

But even if nothing happened, her own daughter was greatly frightened, so she had to take a copy from him.

Therefore, in the court hall this day, Su Yushi played a book, and Xu Fu, the minister of the Ministry of punishment, neglected his duties and failed to report the dangerous situation in Beijing.

Emperor Jianning frowned after hearing this, "Xu Shangshu, is what Su Yushi said true?"

While standing up to answer, Xu Fu secretly scolded Su Yi, an old bastard, for protecting the calf, and at the same time hated those robbers who robbed Miss Su.

"Returning to the emperor, this matter is indeed the negligence of this humble official. I thought that I don't need to disturb the holy car. The joint military department dispatched manpower to catch this group of thieves. I never thought that I have already sent additional patrol manpower to surprise Miss Su. Yes, Lord Su please forgive me."

Having been an official for many years, he is an old fox who can bend and stretch. He is scolded bloody in his heart, but his face is still kind.

"Then, have you caught those thieves?" Emperor Jianning said in a deep voice.

"Back to the emperor, they were all arrested and brought to justice last night." Xu Fu hurriedly replied.

But Su Yi didn't make him feel comfortable, and immediately added a sentence, "I was arrested and brought to justice, but it's not the credit of the Ministry of Punishment, it's the credit of the city defense battalion of the Ministry of War."

"Oh?" Emperor Jianning seemed to be interested, "Who caught the one in the city defense battalion?"

Luo Wenyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, immediately came out, "Back to the emperor, it is Shen Qianwei from the hundred households of the city defense battalion."

"Shen Qianwei, isn't that Shen He's son!" Emperor Jianning suddenly laughed loudly, "A tiger father has no dogs! Back then in the Yanzhou military camp, Shen He was also majestic, brave and good at fighting!"

In the crowd, General Shen, who had been named, hurriedly joined the ranks, cupping his hands with a smile.

"The emperor praised him absurdly, but I dare not be a minister. These are all things that are part of a dog's job."

"I remember that kid, he only turned eighteen this year, right? Back then in Yanzhou, he followed you through a lot of experience in the battlefield, and now he is still in Bianjing. He is still a hero. According to my will, seal Shen Qianwei as a thousand households!"

With a wave of Emperor Jianning's hand, Shen Qianwei's official position was promoted by one level.

It was from the sixth rank before, but now it is from the fifth rank.

This was naturally a great joy to the Shen family. Shen Qianwei was not qualified to go to court, so his father Shen He quickly thanked his son for his kindness.

On the contrary, Xu Fu, the secretary of the Ministry of punishment, was left there dry. Although he was not reprimanded, his old face was completely lost.

What he hadn't done well with the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment was solved by a brat, and the emperor even promoted Shen Qianwei to the official position. Isn't this just a slap in the face in disguise?

After getting down, he left angrily.
