On a carriage on the official road, Su Xiaoxiao and Su Qi had just wiped the last bit of mud off their hands with a handkerchief.
Su Cheng picked up the carriage in large strides, lifted the curtain, and entered with a grin. “Daughter!”
He also saw Su Qi. “Oh, you’re here too.” He wasn’t as enthusiastic about Su Qi.
After all, she was not his chubby daughter.
Su Qi greeted politely, “Uncle… Uncle.”
His ncle has regained his memory, right? Could I address him as his uncle now?
Why was he so nervous?
Su Cheng coughed lightly, not knowing if he had agreed.
Su Cheng sized up the two of them and asked, “Daughter, where did you two go? Why are you all wet? Did you fall into the water?” Su Qi secretly glanced at a certain chubby girl.
She did not fall. She dove.
Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “Oh, Su Qi fell into the river. I pulled him up.”
Su Qi, who had been thrown into the river was speechless.
“Achoo!”
Su Qi sneezed.
The water in April was very cold. Why was this little girl fine?
Su Cheng handed Su Qi a handkerchief.
Su Qi was so touched that tears streamed down his face. His uncle really doted on him!
Su Cheng warned, “Cover your mouth and nose. Don’t infect my daughter.”
Su Qi was speechless.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Father, is the result out?”
Su Cheng said, “It’s out!”
“Who… who won?” Su Qi asked nervously.
It was a sure thing, but for some reason, he was worried that Emperor Jin Xuan would play tricks.
His worries were not unreasonable. Emperor Jing Xuan had resorted to trickery, but he had not won.
Su Cheng explained the small episode of the military strategy examination.
Su Qi frowned. “As expected! I knew things wouldn’t go so smoothly…”
He thought of something and looked at Su Cheng in confusion. “But Uncle, you can’t even read. Can you understand that test paper? Did you really do it yourself?”
“Why can’t I understand? I… I can read!”
A certain someone said without confidence.
At this moment, Wei Ting’s carriage passed by.
The officials left one after another. At this moment, there were too many people and eyes, so he did not come over to greet them. Lord Wei, who had hidden his achievements and reputation, sat in his carriage.
“It was Wei Ting, right?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Su Cheng looked up at the sky. “What did you say? I don’t understand.”
He could still survive!
Wei Ting had indeed cheated in the military strategy examination this time. He had personally snuck into the palace and peeked at the examination paper in advance.
However, the final test was not the one that Wei Ting had seen.
However, Father Su was not stupid. He did not know much about the art of war and did not know how to write.
But he was smart.
If he couldn’t write it, couldn’t he draw it?
It was not about beauty. It was fine as long as it could be understood.
In the past, when he was on an escort mission, this was how he communicated with others.
He improvised and mastered it. This was probably the legendary talent.
Qin Jiang was too calculative about gains and losses, while Su Cheng was bold enough to not be limited in his thinking.
Outside the hunting ground, the princes and princesses also boarded the carriages one after another.
“Third Brother,” Princess Hui An called out.
Xiao Zhonghua smiled and said gently, “Wait for me in the carriage. I’ll go talk to Big Brother. ”
Princess Hui An obediently got into the carriage.
Xiao Zhonghua walked to Xiao Duye’s carriage and said, “Big Brother.” Xiao Duye’s expression turned ugly.
As one of the commanders of the imperial guards, he was naturally punished by Emperor Jing Xuan for such a huge mistake.
It was expected that he would be punished when Su Cheng and Qin Jiang both survived, but it was unexpected that they survived.
“I want to congratulate Third Brother for being valued by Father.”
Xiao Zhonghua comforted him, “Big Brother, don’t be dejected. I believe that
Father was just angry for a moment and took his anger out on you. When Father’s anger dissipates, he will naturally let you resume your position.”
It would have been better if he hadn’t said this, but once he did, Xiao Duye’s face turned even darker.
If Su Cheng had not won, Emperor Jing Xuan would not have been so angry, and his punishment would not have been so severe.
Strictly speaking, the commander of the Guards Legion Corps was Lord Fu, and he was just an assistant. If something happened, he would not be the first to be targeted.
However, he was stripped of his official hat along with Commander Fu. It could be seen how upset Emperor Jing Xuan was with Su Cheng.
“What’s the matter, Third Brother?” Xiao Duye asked indifferently.
Xiao Zhonghua said gently, “No, I just saw that Big Brother’s expression was very bad, so I came to comfort you.”
“I’m fine. You don’t have to worry about me.”
“In that case, I’ll go investigate the case.”
What happened in the forest had to be investigated. Emperor Jing Xuan had already handed it over to the Court of Judicial Review and asked Xiao Zhonghua to go to the Court of Judicial Review to help investigate the case.
Xiao Duye felt even more stifled.
He had just been fired, but his brother had been promoted—
However, Xiao Zhonghua did not seem to notice the coldness in his eyes. He smiled gently and got into his carriage.
Xiao Zhonghua and the minister of the Court of Judicial Review went to the Protectorate.
Qin Jiang was already awake and knew that he had lost to Su Cheng. He didn’t even have time to lament his misfortune before he was interrogated by Xiao Zhonghua and the minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
He wanted to slander Su Cheng, but he could not.
beside him who had rebelled and suddenly started to hunt him down. He hurriedly fled, and Imperial Bodyguard Cheng beside Su Cheng held back the traitor.
However, there were some discrepancies at the back.
“Su Cheng said that he lured some of them away? Heh, he was the one who abandoned me and fled first! ”
Xiao Zhonghua said, “So, no assassins went after him?”
Qin Jiang choked and said, “Yes.”
Xiao Zhonghua: “How many went?”
Qin Jiang: “About five or six.”
Xiao Zhonghua: “How many did you kill?”
Qin Jiang: “Two.”
Su Cheng was right.
The court minister glanced at Qin Jiang and thought to himself, “You just can’t stand Su Cheng. He clearly helped you lure the assassin away, but you still slandered him for abandoning you and escaping.”
“By the way, how’s the archer? Is he alright?” Qin Jiang asked.
Xiao Zhonghua and the minister of the Court of Judicial Review looked confused.
“What archer?” Xiao Zhonghua asked.
“Archers from the Divine Bow Camp.” Qin Jiang said, “He helped deal with many assassins, but… he also shot an arrow at me…” At this point, Qin Jiang could not figure it out.
Why did the archer shoot him?
If he wanted to kill him, he was still alive…
After he was hit by the arrow, he quickly fainted and did not know what happened after that.
“There were no archers.” Xiao Zhonghua said, “The person you mentioned who shot the assassin should be Imperial Bodyguard Cheng. After dealing with the traitor of the Imperial Guards, he rushed over to save you and Su Cheng.”
Qin Jiang muttered, “Was it Imperial Bodyguard Cheng? But his archery…
doesn’t seem like something a mere imperial guard can have.”
Xiao Zhonghua said, “As for why he shot you, he probably missed. He wanted to shoot the assassin.”
Qin Jiang wanted to say that that person’s archery was so precise, he could not have missed. However, other than this, he could not think of any other possibility.
From the beginning to the end, he did not consider that he was Su Cheng’s accomplice because he knew that there was no such powerful archer who served Qin Canglan and Su Shuo.
It couldn’t be that the two of them were personally involved. What a joke. They were accompanying Emperor Jing Xuan to deduce the sand table.
After leaving the Protectorate, Xiao Zhonghua was about to get into the carriage to return. After a pause, he said to the minister of the Court of Judicial Review, “I’ll have to trouble Lord Tong to send someone to the Divine Bow Camp and ask if there were any archers secretly sent to the hunting ground.”
The minister cupped his hands. “Yes, Third Prince.”
At the Wei family, Wei Ting was obediently copying books in his room.
Matriarch Wei had order it.
This was the price of getting into trouble.
His right hand was injured, but his left hand was still functional and writing crooked text. He had to brace himself and copy.
Yuchi Xiu’s figure flashed as he entered the room.
“Is it done?” Wei Ting asked.
Yuchi Xiu grabbed a peach and sat on the chair without a care for his image. I he nibbled on it, he said, “Is there anything I can’t do?”
Su Xiaoxiao was right about one thing. Imperial Bodyguard Cheng was indee( Xiao Duye’s chess piece.
However, Wei Ting had been staring at Xiao Duye the entire time. He had noticed Xiao Duye’s little trick and had asked Yuchi Xiu to kill Imperial Bodyguard Cheng in advance and disguise himself as him.
“Ice money. ”
Yuchi Xiu said.
The coroner of the government office was not to be trifled with. Bodyguard Cheng died at noon. In order to prevent the coroner from finding out the tim of his death, Yuchi Xiu had prepared a large amount of ice to freeze the corps
This method was taught by Wei Ting.
“I owe you,” Wei Ting said.
Debt was not a burden.
Yuchi Xiu said unhappily, “You clearly just won five thousand taels from Xiao Duye!”
Wei Ting thought about it and seemed to think that his words made sense, so he opened the money bag, pulled out a copper coin from it, and placed it in Yuchi Xiu’s hand.
Yuchi Xiu was stunned.
Yuchi Xiu clenched his fists.
Stingy, huh?
No pay?
Alright, then he wouldn’t tell Wei Ting that that girl entered the forest today!
Actually, even Su Cheng didn’t know that Su Xiaoxiao had gone in. He thought that those assassins were killed by Yuchi Xiu alone.
Of course, Su Cheng didn’t know from the start that Yuchi Xiu had disguised himself as a guard. He saw Yuchi Xiu disposing of the corpse.
To be honest, that scene was a little awkward.
The ending was good. Su Cheng was very loyal. When he found out that Yuchu Xiu was sent by his son-in-law, he even helped Yuchi Xiu arrange the corpse.
Yuchi Xiu helped Su Cheng disguise an injury.
The two of them discussed their plan to deal with the aftermath and addressed many loopholes. They regretted not meeting sooner.
When he was with Su Cheng, Yuchi Xiu felt that he was a wise man. Both of them were shining with wisdom.
When facing Wei Ting, Yuchi Xiu often felt that he was a retard…
“Hmph!”
Yuchi Xiu left without looking back!
He wanted to find his soul brother!
