Chapter 123 Favoritism
A woman in her forties was rich and bloated. At this time, her eyes were red and she sat at the main entrance of the Ministry of Justice’s Office, pointing to the direction of the gate and started to curse. "Wei Bugong, who is killing the sky, only collects money and does not do anything. What did you say when I gave you money? You said you must save Xiao'er. Now that my son is in the wilderness, you are sitting here. God doesn’t have eyes, and I will not live for this life. You will give my son back!"
Aside from the woman, there were several young men trying to pull her, calling her "mother" and intending to pull her away. But the woman was reluctant to listen. When she thought of her son who died tragically, she cried louder than a while. The guards at the main gate of the Ministry of Justice could not bear to watch it anymore, so they came over to stop the woman, but were spitted by the woman. "Bold! Lord Wei is the minister of the Ministry of Justice, how could you let me talk nonsense here. If you are making trouble, be careful to lock you in!"
The guard said seriously. The woman snorted coldly on her nose. "I scolded him Wei Biangong! If you have the ability, let him come out and confront him in front of you. Ask you, the Minister of Justice, and I want to see the emperor!"
For a moment, the Ministry of Justice's Office was in chaos. In the crowd, a man watched everything in front of him and quietly retreated. He returned to Ye's Mansion and went straight to Qiushuiyuan. "Grand girl, everything goes well."
Ye Ningyu put down the military books that had been flipping through for most of the day, stood up and looked out of the courtyard. "I guess at this time, the Minister of Justice was in a hurry to jump."
Guard Xiao did not see Yang Hongtai at the Ministry of Justice today. At this time, he didn't know what to say, so he just stood still. "Girl, what should we do next?"
Ye Ningyu's eyes were as sharp as a torch, and his tone was deep. "I have set up the stage for them, so I'll wait for King Yong to sing it myself."
Ye Ningyu sorted out his clothes and prepared to go to Ye Yonghe's study. "You go down first."
She said to Guard Xiao. It took several days for heavy snow to stop slowly on the morning of the fourth day of the lunar month. Now it is the day of snow melting, and it is much colder than before. Ye Ningyu wore a plain jacket and a goose yellow pleated skirt. When she walked in the mansion, she did not let the girl follow him. Ye Ningyu walked in the snow, as if she was integrated with the snow. When she walked outside Ye Yonghe's house, she found that Ye Anzheng was also in Ye Yonghe's study, and the father and son were talking. Ye Anzheng was precocious and had a little more steady than his younger brothers and sisters in his daily life. Such character was the result of Ye Yonghe's careful teaching for many years. "San Uncle, A Zheng is also here."
Ye Ningyu stood at the door with a smile, not going in. "Ayun is here."
"Sister."
Both father and son greeted Ye Ningyu with a smile. "A Zheng and I are talking about the murder that happened in the western suburbs last night."
Ye Yonghe frowned, as if shocked by this incident. Ye Ningyu originally wanted to tell Ye Yonghe something secretly, but now he has changed his mind after seeing this. Ye Anzheng is also old and will start to join the Hanlin position once the science exam is on the list next year. He and A Jun can slowly get in touch with some things. "Coincidentally, I'm talking about this matter."
Ye Ningyu walked in, and after saluting Ye Yonghe, he sat in the position of his hand. "The elder sister had something to tell her father, so A Zheng went back."
After saying that, Ye Anjun was about to quit. "You stay, it's not a big deal."
Ye Ningyu looked at Ye Anzheng with a smile. After getting Ye Yonghe's eyes approved, Ye Anzheng sat down again with peace of mind. "I heard that the person who was assassinated this time was a prisoner who escaped from the Ministry of Justice. Lord Yang entered the palace today. I guess His Majesty must have been thunderous."
Ye Yonghe shook his head and sighed. He was not familiar with Yang Hongtai, but they were admitted to the second-rank Jinshi in the same year. Over the years, their friendship has not been too deep. When King Yong and the Ye family discussed their relatives, Yang Hongtai had intentionally or unintentionally showed goodwill to Ye Yonghe. Ye Yonghe was neither humble nor arrogant, and just regarded him as an ordinary colleague. Now he heard that there was a chaos in the Ministry of Justice, and he felt moved again. Ye Anzheng's focus was different from his father. "I heard that the thieves' nests were in the miasma forest in the western suburbs. How did they survive there? These gangs seem to have a great origin."
Hearing Ye Anzheng mention the miasma forest, a hint of undetectable smile appeared on Ye Ningyu's face. Before yesterday, no one knew about this matter. All the news about the bandits was released by Guard Xiao and the people were released overnight. King Yong probably had no time to think about it now. When he had time to slowly clear his thoughts, he would definitely find the strangeness of this matter. It was as if someone suddenly stabbed a bandit's nest, and the activities he and those people were doing seemed to be exposed overnight in broad daylight. Ye Yonghe frowned and thought about what his son said, as if he had such a question in his heart. The father and son discussed their opinions for a while. Seeing that Ye Ningyu had not spoken for a long time, Ye Yonghe looked at her again. "I'm not hiding the third uncle, there is indeed a force behind those bandits, but this still needs to be verified. What is certain now is that Your Majesty will order the bandits to be suppressed."
Ye Yonghe nodded, "You said Your Majesty would send someone to suppress the bandits? It's not clear about the strength of the bandits yet. Besides, those people have long been used to surviving in the miasma forest. It is probably not good for us to send troops rashly."
"This time, King Yong led his troops."
Ye Ningyu did not hide it. This matter would probably be spread among the important officials of the court today. "Oh?"
Ye Yonghe was quite surprised. He originally thought that it would be Su Qianshan or the Ministry of War, but he never expected that it would be King Yong. Ye Yonghe was still reserved for King Yong to lead troops to suppress bandits. Not to mention that he had never brought troops, even if he had some experience in leading troops, the miasma forest was not easy to attack. "The bandits are no longer afraid of now. King Yong's troops will definitely hurt their vitality this time."
Ye Ningyu said this very conservatively, so conservative that even Ye Anzheng could hear something was wrong. He damaged his vitality? Could it be that he would all be wiped out? "The elder sister means... King Yong cannot wipe them out?"
Ye Ningyu slowly curled a smile on the corner of his lips, "It's only a matter of time before the extermination of them, but now that King Yong sent troops, I'm afraid that it will not be able to wipe them out all."
Ye Yonghe narrowed his eyes and thought. Ye Ningyu said that these bandits were no longer afraid, and said that King Yong could not suppress all the bandits. Isn’t this a contradiction? “Ayun, do you know something?”
Ye Yonghe suddenly thought of an incredible possibility. Ye Ningyu did not directly answer Ye Yonghe's words, but turned his head. "I just heard the third uncle mention Mr. Yang, the Minister of Justice. Do Uncle San know that something big happened at the office of the Ministry of Justice's Office today."
"oh?"
