My Ancient Stepson Bootcamp

Chapter 113
At the end of June, there was a lot of rain in the capital. In the torrential rain, a group of soldiers in armor surrounded the Su family. After a while, there were loud cries from inside, and then everyone in the Su family was arrested. Wearing thick iron chain shackles.

The imperial decree has been issued, the Su family will be confiscated today, the men will be pushed out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded three days later, and the women will be reduced to servants and exiled in the frontier, and will never be able to return to Beijing.

In the mansion of Dingyuanhou with a towering gate, Mrs. Yuan, the wife of Dingyuanhou, wept loudly and shouted to her husband Wei Qianjie, Dingyuanhou, who was sitting there: "Hurry up and save my sister's family with the golden monk Fang Baojian , It’s just that a few lowly people died, why should the Su family be confiscated, the emperor’s heart is too cruel, it’s also his wife’s family and aunt’s house, he really doesn’t care about it at all!”

Dingyuan Hou Wei Qianjie glared at his wife with a sullen face, and said angrily: "Listen to what you said, what do you mean by killing a few lowly people? I warned Su Yong long ago not to be too greedy or to do too much, but he didn't listen at all, let alone discipline his son."

"Brother Qiang did it wrong, but after all, he is young and spoiled by his family. Now he has only one breath left. He probably won't be able to survive. It is impossible to use his life alone to pay for the crimes of the Su family. huh!" Yuan Shi said of course.

"You—" Wei Qianjie was so angry that he was almost speechless, "Who do you think this court and this country belong to? Now the civil and military forces of the whole court are targeting the Su family, and the emperor is determined to take care of the Su family. No one can save them this time!"

When Yuan Shi heard this, she stepped forward and grabbed Wei Qianjie's sleeve, her attitude softened a little, and she begged: "But you are the Marquis of Dingyuan, and you have a gold medal in your hand, so you can always ask the emperor for extra mercy, please forgive me." After killing their family, as long as they don't die, there will always be a way to bring them back to life in the future."

"Impossible!" Wei Qianjie resolutely refused, seeing that Yuan's wholeheartedness was to save his younger sister, Su Yong's family, "Don't be confused about this matter. Even if my gold medal for avoiding death is to save people, it should be the right thing to do." My descendants of the Wei family, could it be that your sister is more important than your sons and grandchildren!"

Yuan Shi was stunned for a moment, she only wanted to save her younger sister's family, but she forgot that there was only one gold medal for avoiding death, and only one family could be saved, there was no need to weigh it, naturally her children and grandchildren were the most important.

"Then there is really nothing to do?" Thinking of the suffering of her younger sister's family, Yuan Shi felt very sad. She thought that relying on the skills of the Dingyuan Houfu and the queen's daughter, the Su family would be safe.

Wei Qianjie's eyes darkened, and his eyes narrowed into slits. He knew very well that the emperor's actions were clearly aimed at dealing with the Su family, but he was actually warning him that the power of the Wei family had already made the emperor feel uncomfortable. It's okay, if you continue to commit crimes like the Su family, the emperor will not show mercy.

"Warn the people in the mansion well, don't go out and cause trouble for me in the future. Now that the eldest prince has not been established as the crown prince, I am afraid that there will be changes in the position of the crown prince. Only the empress and the eldest prince in the palace. My Wei family is rich and prosperous. It will last forever. You should also persuade your daughter not to fight with the emperor all the time, she will only suffer in the end!" After finishing speaking, Wei Qianjie, Marquis of Dingyuan, threw up his sleeves and left, leaving Yuan Shi slumped. on the chair.

When Lin Shuran learned that Su's house had been ransacked, she was talking with Gu Hong in the room, and Chunxi rushed in in the rain with a happy smile on her face.

"Miss, it's really heart-warming. The Su family has been raided. I heard people say that the Su family has occupied tens of thousands of hectares of good land from the common people in various places, and they have cleverly set up various names to avoid land tax. The cellars in the mansion are full of gold. Now It's all gone to the treasury!" Chunxi told Lin Shuran about the news that he went out to inquire.

"Su Yong is just a servant of the household department, but he is greedy for so much property. The other officials don't know what it is like. People used to say that the wine and meat of the Zhumen smell bad, and the roads are frozen to death. This should be true!" Lin Shuran Said very emotionally.

"What the lady said is very reasonable, but there will always be good officials in this world. I think the new magistrate of Shichuan County is very good. I heard from Steward Zhang of the farm that he can solve cases like a god, and he specializes in Avenging justice for the common people!" Chunxi went back to the farm in the southern suburbs twice, and now the most discussed issue there is about the Su family and the new county magistrate.

Lin Shuran met the new county magistrate that Chunxi was talking about in Sujiazhuang that day. He looked upright, shrewd and capable, but he didn't know what kind of person he was, and he couldn't see through a person just by looking at the surface, but She hoped that the county magistrate was really a good official as Chunxi said, and that there would be more good officials in the Jin Dynasty in the future. Only in this way would the people's lives get better and better, and the country would have a brighter future.

"Ma'am, Housekeeper Zhang from the farm in the southern suburbs is here!" At this moment, a maid outside the door reported that Zhang Tang came to the General's Mansion.

Lin Shuran asked him to wait in the side hall, and when he saw Zhang Tang, he found that he was holding a green cloth package, so he asked him why he came to the mansion.

Zhang Tang handed the package to Lin Shuran respectfully with both hands and said, "Miss, a man came to the village today. He said his surname was Tao, and his daughter was snatched by Su Sanqiang that day. He saved the girl."

Zhang Tang also said that the old man Tao's daughter passed out and was thrown into the well, but she did not die. County magistrate Fei rescued her and found a doctor for her to heal her illness, and then fined the Su family for compensation Their 100 taels of silver.

Old man Tao was very grateful to Xu Mingchen and the others for their help. He was a carpenter himself, so he personally made some thank-you gifts to express his gratitude. He knew that the four of Xu Mingchen were all of high status, so he was afraid that they would not appreciate his gift, so he sent this gift to him. Grange also expressed his gratitude.

Lin Shuran asked Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye to be called over, and briefly explained Zhang Tang's reason for coming to them, then looked at the green cloth package on the table and said: "This is my gratitude to you, Mo If you think things are expensive or cheap, your intentions are worth ten thousand gold!"

Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye nodded in agreement. They thought that they just did what they should do, and they felt ashamed to accept the other party's gift, but they were still very happy.

So, the two decided to open the package in front of Lin Shuran. After opening it, they found a long carved mahogany box inside. When they opened the box again, there were four exquisitely auspicious unicorns carved with wood.

Lin Shuran's eyes lit up when he saw it. This old man Tao's woodcarving skills are really amazing. The hairs on Qilin's body can be seen every single hair, and his expression is vivid. Although it is the size of a palm, it shows that the sculptor is highly skilled.

"Can I meet this man?" Lin Shuran suddenly had the idea to meet this old man Tao, this is a talent!
