"Of course."
Su Chen smiled lightly and said, "To put it simply, my friend Shu Tianxing served as the commander of the city guard army. He dutifully killed a robber who broke into the house, but he was slandered for killing innocent people indiscriminately, so he was
Put him in a prison in the south of the city."
"Is there such a thing?"
Nie Weitong looked very surprised. Although he was the highest officer of the city guard, no one would disturb him for such a trivial matter as a small commander being imprisoned.
However, if the little commander was wrongly accused, things would be completely different. Because anyone who could throw dirty water on such a matter must be someone within the city guard.
"Are you sure it's slander?"
Nie Weitong immediately asked.
"I'm sure, because I visited both the robber's home and the home that was robbed. I can confirm that he was indeed a genuine robber. Shu Tianxing did not kill innocent people indiscriminately."
Su Chen said, "Moreover, the neighbors around the house that was robbed can also confirm that the house was indeed robbed, and Shu Tianxing did not lie."
"Since there is someone who can testify, why didn't Shu Tianxing plead his case earlier?"
Nie Weitong frowned and asked.
"General Nie, you have underestimated the power of the City Guards to intimidate ordinary people."
Su Chen smiled lightly, "Shu Tianxing was convicted by the top brass of the City Guards. No ordinary person would dare to stand up and testify for Shu Tianxing in such a matter, because that would be equivalent to offending a big shot of the City Guards."
When Nie Weitong heard this, his face changed slightly, and he asked again: "Who convicted him?"
"Commander Xia."
Su Chen said calmly.
Nie Weitong thought for a long time, then suddenly stood up and hugged Su Chen.
"Master Su Chen, thank you for telling me these things today. I will definitely investigate Shu Tianxing's affairs."
Chu, if he is wrongly accused, I will clear his name. Commander Xia will also give him the due treatment."
Nie Weitong said seriously.
"General Nie, it is your responsibility to manage the city guards well. There is no need to report to me."
Su Chen smiled lightly.
"Yes, this is my duty. Mr. Su, I will take my leave now."
Nie Weitong looked solemn, bowed slowly to Su Chen, then turned around and left Su Chen's house.
Su Chen looked at Nie Weitong's back, smiled faintly, then stood up, walked out of the room, and came to the yard.
In the yard, Shu Tianxing was standing there. When he saw Su Chen coming out, Shu Tianxing opened his mouth and asked hesitantly: "My benefactor, just now General Nie..."
"It's okay, Lao Shu, just wait, General Nie will give you justice." Su Chen smiled lightly, "Maybe you can be reinstated and return to the city guard."
"Benefactor, is it true?" Shu Tianxing's face showed uncontrollable surprise.
"Well, I believe General Nie can handle this matter impartially."
Su Chen chuckled. In fact, he could see that Shu Tianxing always felt lost since he left the City Guards. Perhaps, in his heart, he still longed to return to the City Guards, where he belongs.
Really belong.
Although Shu Tianxing didn't say it verbally, in his heart he probably still hoped to be the commander of the returning guards.
If General Nie can handle this matter well this time, it will be a satisfactory result for Shu Tianxing, which can also be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
As for
Commander Xia.
Perhaps being dismissed from his post, investigated and thrown into prison would be the most suitable outcome for him.
…
The next day, Su Chen prepared the materials for Huang Yuandan and went to the Alchemy Guild as agreed with Vice President Dai.
Arriving at the reception hall of the Alchemy Guild, a young man in charge of reception was sitting there, not the one who received him yesterday.
The young man glanced at Su Chen, perhaps because he saw that Su Chen was unfamiliar and did not wear an alchemist badge on his chest, so he said calmly: "Who are you, and why do you come to the Alchemy Guild?"
"I made an appointment with Vice President Dai, just let me in." Su Chen said simply.
"Have you made an appointment with Vice President Dai?" .??.
The young man frowned and glanced at Su Chen, obviously not believing what Su Chen said.
How condescending is Vice-President Dai? Looking at the entire Alchemy Guild, apart from the president, there is no one with a higher status than Vice-President Dai.
But now, a strange boy casually said that he had an appointment with Vice President Dai. How could he believe it?
"Okay, you wait here, I'll go in and report." The young man said.
"Okay, just tell him that Su Chen is here."
Su Chen nodded. It seemed that what happened yesterday was not spread fast enough, at least not to this young man's ears. Otherwise, this man would definitely not let him wait here.
The young man got up and walked into the back hall. Within a moment, the young man came back behind a middle-aged man in his forties.
"It is said that you want to meet Vice President Dai?"
The middle-aged man in his forties looked at Su Chen and asked him.
"It's not me who wants to see him, it's me
Made an appointment with him."
Su Chen frowned and said, "Can I go in now?"
The middle-aged man laughed twice and said: "I've seen people like you a lot, but the Alchemy Guild doesn't welcome people like you who are just talking nonsense! Get out of here now!"
"You think I'm lying?" Su Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
"I told you, I've seen people like you a lot." The middle-aged man said disdainfully, "Get out of here right now, or I'll call the guards."
When Su Chen heard this, he smiled and said, "If you say so, if I really know Vice President Dai, what should you do?"
The middle-aged man laughed a few times and said casually: "Do you know Vice President Dai? If you really know Vice President Dai, I can even eat this vase."
As he spoke, the man pointed to a vase next to him.
Su Chen chuckled: "Why is this so embarrassing? This vase doesn't look very tasty."
"Boy, what you said is very interesting, but the joke should end here." The middle-aged man's face darkened, "Guard!"
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, a team of guards rushed over.
The middle-aged man pointed at Su Chen and said, "Get this nonsense guy out of here!"
The young man in charge of the reception looked at Su Chen sympathetically. He knew that this middle-aged man was a newly promoted person in charge. He had always been depressed in the past, and he didn't know how to make his character shine. His uncle
He was actually promoted to the level of Great Alchemy King, so he was made the person in charge.
