Chapter 79 Kong Dezhao's Revenge
The Su family was shocked instantly.
The Buddhist beads in the old lady's hand fell to the ground, and Su Huaishan stood up suddenly.
Su Yanshu walked out of the house quickly and happened to meet the eyes of the person who was walking down the stairs.
He knew this person. He was the deputy commander of the imperial guards, whose surname was Li.
"Commander Li, what are you doing?"
Commander Li glanced at Su Zhiyi and Ru Jian who came out from behind.
"In compliance with the Emperor's order, we are thoroughly investigating the corruption and bribery case of Shen Feng, the Minister of War. The entire Shen family has been searched. The Su family has an engagement with the Shen family. According to the mother and son of the Shen family, some of the stolen goods are in the Su family."
He said, and waved his hand: "Search!"
The Su family was in an uproar.
Yu Shengsheng looked at the noisy scene and suddenly remembered that it was the same scene when she was taken away from the paddock.
She explained, over and over again, but no one in the Su family spoke for her. The queen's men were all cold and fierce, and would not tolerate any explanation.
At this moment, she once again stood in the storm and watched coldly.
Su Zhiyi was stunned: "Stolen goods? The Shen family has never sent any stolen goods. My Su family is a loyal family, how could we..."
"Princess," Commander Li interrupted her, "Madam Shen said that she gave you a pair of beautiful jade rings as a gift for meeting you, and also gave you a lot of things when you came of age, as well as birthday gifts and so on."
Commander Li took out a list, loosened his fingers, and the other end rolled down, which was two or three meters long.
"Here is the list, return it according to the instructions."
Su Zhiyi: “…” His breath got stuck in his throat and he almost died of anger.
Su Dingqin said angrily: "This is outrageous. The Shen family is not a decent person, and my sister doesn't know where those things came from. Do we have to ask others if each gift we receive is stolen goods?"
Commander Li frowned and said, "Young General, you can't talk to me about this. Why don't you ask the emperor?"
Su Dingqin wanted to say something, but Su Huaishan held him back and shook his head.
"Zhiyi, now that it has been found to be stolen property, then return it. Our Su family has always been upright and clean. We must not let others stab us in the back just for a little property."
Su Zhiyi was so angry that he had a headache. It was really ridiculous. At this time, they were still talking about the Su family!
Since she was named Princess, the Shen family has been trying to curry favor with her, especially Madam Shen. I don't know how many things she has given her. How could it be "a little money and property?"
Yu Shengsheng watched calmly, secretly shocked at how capable Kong Dezhao was, to be able to cause such a big commotion.
The Shen family is so dignified that they can just copy it like that?
She couldn't help but worry secretly. She had put so much effort into breaking away from the Su family. How difficult would it be to break away from the Kong family and Kong Dezhao?
Can she and Qi Mubai win?
Just as she was daydreaming, someone suddenly pulled her sleeve. She turned around and saw it was Mrs. Su.
"Shengsheng, Zhiyi is a princess, she has a different status and cannot be insulted like this. Can you take it for her and say that you like those things and you want to leave?"
Yu Shengsheng suddenly felt like laughing.
She looked at Mrs. Su and said nothing.
Mrs. Su felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by her, and said in a hurried voice, "I know you feel wronged, but there is nothing we can do about it. Do you want Zhiyi to be humiliated?"
"You said you took those things..."
"What can I give back?" Yu Shengsheng interrupted her, "You saw it, they just came to steal those things. They don't care about my reputation. She is rich and I am poor, but what about the things? What can I give back?"
Madam Su quickly said, "She should pay it back. You don't have to pay it back. It's just a matter of taking the blame for her."
"With what happened to the Shen family, this marriage can't be done. And Zhiyi's legs...if her reputation gets ruined again, what will she do?"
In a short period of time, Mrs. Su even thought of all these.
Yu Shengsheng laughed briefly. Who said Madam Su was weak, incompetent and stupid?
She just cares about the people she wants to care about.
The imperial guards rushed in without giving any time for explanation, and the old lady was so anxious that she almost fainted.
"This is my yard, not the princess's yard. What are you searching here for?"
Commander Li said, "The Shen family said that the old lady gave a pair of jade bottles as a birthday present, which were also stolen goods."
"There is also a screen and a pair of incense burners."
The imperial guards broke in, found the things and moved them out in no time.
The old lady gritted her teeth: "What a sin!"
"Princess, go to your yard."
Su Zhiyi's face turned pale, his whole body was stiff, and he tried to keep his voice calm.
"Commander Li, my father is a military commander, and I have also made military achievements. Our Su family has always been loyal. We will take the Shen family's things. Why do you have to do this?"
"It is the Shen family that broke the law, not the Su family. We will be in the court in the future, so we will meet each other eventually."
Commander Li was silent for a moment, and Su Yanshu said at the right time: "Commander Li, how about this? Leave the list and I will prepare everything as soon as possible according to the list, and personally deliver it to the palace for storage. I will never make things difficult for you. How do you think?"
Commander Li bowed in the direction of the palace and said, "Princess, Second Young Master, it's not that I don't want to give you face, it's really the Emperor's order that I take all the things back."
Su Yanshu frowned and was about to speak when someone outside the door said, "Commander Li, I have brought you a message from my father."
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the prince walking out of the shadows into the light.
The torch shone on his silk summer robe, making it look like it was coated with a halo.
Everyone hurriedly greeted them.
The prince smiled and nodded: "Everyone please stand up, no need to be so polite."
"Princess," the prince looked at Su Zhiyi, "Father is furious. He is angry at the Shen family. He asked Commander Li to come here because he was furious. I know that the Su family is loyal and righteous. Father came here to let me pass on his instructions."
"The Su family is a loyal family, and the general is still serving at the border. I cannot let the Su family down. What the Shen family sent is nothing more than a token of love between young men and women. Just treat it as compensation to Princess Rongyang."
Everyone was delighted, and Su Zhiyi smiled even more, looking at the prince with a bright look.
"Thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
After the prince finished speaking, his eyes turned to Yu Shengsheng.
The Su family's emotions were up and down, only Yu Shengsheng stood quietly on the edge, cold and independent.
That lonely, cold and unruly look filled the prince's heart with a desire to conquer her.
He finished his oral instructions patiently and no longer looked at Su Zhiyi.
Yu Shengsheng drooped her eyelashes, her heart calm. The things were not hers, and the reputation was not hers either. It had nothing to do with her.
Noticing the prince's gaze, she didn't want to look up even more.
Su Zhiyi's smile froze slightly. She was so perceptive that she immediately noticed that the prince had looked at Yu Shengsheng, and his eyes were different.
This bitch, in this situation, still dares to seduce the prince!
Commander Li bowed and said, "Since the Crown Prince has delivered the Emperor's order, I will go back and deliver the order."
"good."
Commander Li waved his hand and ordered the troops to withdraw.
He looked at Ru Jian and said to Su Zhiyi, "Princess, is this woman the one who will be Shen Zhiyuan's concubine?"
Su Zhiyi didn't want to mention this, but she could only admit: "Yes."
"That's great, come with me."
