Chapter 697: Second Brother

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

This was the military merit that Su Cheng had earned with his own strength. Qin Canglan did not partic.i.p.ate the entire time. Those who mocked Su Cheng for only being able to rely on his father to climb up the ranks were finally slapped in the face.

“However, I’ve always been puzzled. Since Jin Wu is that person’s lackey, why isn’t it recorded on the register?”

Because the register was fake… Wei Ting said without changing his expression,

“It’s recorded, Your Majesty. It’s in the middle.”

“Is that so?” Emperor Jing Xuan had not been to the imperial study for a few days. He asked Eunuch Fu to bring the name list over and flipped to the middle. He did see the names of Commander Jin, Deputy Commander Liu, and the others. “Perhaps I missed them last time.”

Wei Ting didn’t say,”No, I added them in time.”

Other than Su Cheng, Wei Ting, who had killed the traitor, had also made a great contribution. He was originally a fourth-grade Guard General. Now, he had advanced by one grade and was a third-grade General.

The civil servants were about to die of envy. No wonder they said that generals were promoted quickly. One had to know that they had worked so hard that they could not be promoted even after three to six years.

Xiao Shunyang and Xiao Zhonghua had contributed to calming the chaos and were conferred the t.i.tles of Prince Rui and Prince An. The eldest prince, Xiao Duye, did not make it in time. He had nothing to do with the conferment of the t.i.tles. He was so angry that his teeth hurt.

Princess Jingning, Princess Hui An, and the daughters of the Palace Academy also received a generous reward from Emperor Jing Xuan, who praised them for not being inferior to men.

Everyone was touched. After this incident, they were not only cla.s.smates, but also comrades.

Finally, it was Su Xiaoxiao.

She had contributed greatly to protecting the Empress, saving the Second Prince, and killing three experts.

Unfortunately, a woman could not be an official. After some thought, Emperor Jing Xuan conferred her a fourth-grade Madam and bestowed her with a miracle doctor plaque and an imperial hospital token.

“Although you’re not holding the position of an imperial physician, you’re an imperial physician.”

This was the limit of what Emperor Jing Xuan could do.

Su Xiaoxiao thanked His Majesty.

The national treasury was deficient, and Emperor Jing Xuan was poor. He could forget about rewarding gold. In fact, Emperor Jing Xuan entertained thoughts of borrowing money from Su Xiaoxiao.

“To be able to enter the palace openly to treat the concubines of the various palaces is also a considerable income. This token is useful.”

Su Xiaoxiao left the palace satisfied.

There were rewards and punishments. Commander Jin and the others were sentenced to be beheaded, Sikong Yun was imprisoned, and Prime Minister Guo escaped a calamity because he failed to partic.i.p.ate in the rebellion.

Sometimes, the person who survived to the end might not be the mastermind. Instead, it might be such a “scaredy cat”.

In just 20 days, the Empress Dowager experienced a huge ups and downs. The next day, she fell seriously ill.

Su Xiaoxiao went to visit her and didn’t tell her the truth about Prince Nanyang and Xiao Jun. Firstly, she didn’t Imow what to say.

“I often feel like I have two versions of myself in my mind…” Even if King Nanyang personally told the Empress Dowager this, the Empress Dowager might not understand, let alone an outsider like her.

The second was that being happy for nothing was better than the pain of parting.

Su Xiaoxiao asked the three little fellows to accompany the Empress Dowager more. The three little tiger heads crawled on her body and quickly dispersed the haze in her heart.

She looked at the three strong little fellows and her smile returned to her lips.

In the afternoon, Su Xiaoxiao brought the three little ones to the directorate to pick up Su Ergou from school. Then, they returned to the Su family.

As the peace amba.s.sadors, the Old Marquis and Su Yuan escorted Princess Lingxi to Western Jin. The rest were there.

When Matriarch Su saw her precious grandnephew and great-grandnephews, she was extremely excited. She hugged the three little fellows and refused to let go. If not for the fact that she couldn’t carry Su Ergou and Su Xiaoxiao, she would have hugged them.

“Great-grandma! Great-grandma!”

The three little fellows scrambled into her arms.

The three little fellows had completely messed up the way they addressed their elders. They couldn’t call them uncle, so they unanimously called them great-grandma.

Matriarch Su’s arms were filled with smiles.

“Aiya, let me see who’s here?”

“Mother.”

Su Li b.u.mped into Madam Tao at the door and greeted her obediently!

He was the most beautiful child in the capital!

Madam Tao pushed him away without looking and walked towards Su Ergou and the three little fellows with a smile.

Su Li, who had encountered another wave of disdain from his mother, was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao found Su Xuan reading quietly in the garden.

“Fourth Cousin.”

Su Xiaoxiao came behind him and bowed slightly to greet him before handing him a safety talisman.

“It’s not an ordinary safety talisman. It’s a top scholar’s talisman blessed by a master in the temple. I’m going to make a house call next month during the Fall Quarter Examinations. I might not be in the capital at that time. I wish

Fourth Cousin all the way to high school in advance!”

Su Xuan took it and carefully put it away. “Thank you.”

After a moment, Su Xuan smiled gently. “Well done.”

Su Xiaoxiao understood that he was referring to Xiao Jun. She raised her eyebrows and said, “Actually… I didn’t do anything. I’m not the main force this time.”

She chilled almost the entire time.

Su Xuan smiled and didn’t argue with her about the change in everyone’s fate.

“I can give you a reward.”

“There’s a reward? Is it gold?” Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up.

Fourth Cousin was the richest. She had been coveting his gold for a long time.

Su Xuan tilted his head and looked at her. He smiled gently. “A piece of news more valuable than gold.”

Su Xiaoxiao refused. No, no, no, she wanted gold.

Su Xuan said, “Wei Erlang is still alive. It’s about his whereabouts.”

At the Wei family, Matriarch Wei began to stir up trouble again.

She looked bitter and resentful.

“The widow has gone to the grave to sing, and the deceased grandson has also

acted…

She felt that she was about to run out of acting scripts.

“Why don’t we… repeat it?”

“If only Second Brother was still around. He understands Boss’s thoughts the best.”

Thinking of Wei Erlang, Matriarch Wei’s heart ached.

He was a concubine’s son. His mother was gone when he was born. Among the brothers, the most sensible was not Wei Chen, who was the eldest, but the second son, who was the easiest to neglect.

As the heir, Wei Chen was always in the military camp. His brothers were all raised by his second brother. Wei Yan and Wei Ting were naughty when they were young and were often taught a lesson by their biological father. He would be the one who got beaten up for his two stinky brothers.

After becoming a father, he doted on Wei Xiyue so much that he carried her all the time during the confinement period.

No matter what others said about Wei Xiyue being different from other children, he always thought that his Xiyue was the best. He said that he wanted to be the best father in the world and watch Xiyue grow up..

“Matriarch, why are you crying again?” When Nanny Li entered, she saw that Matriarch Wei’s eyes were red.

“No, I just miss Second Brother a little. I’ve been thinking about him recently.” Matriarch Wei wiped her tears and returned to her normal expression. “Where’s Chen’er?”

“He went out.” Nanny Li’s expression was indescribable.

Old Madam Wei frowned. “Has he gone to Pear Blossom Lane again?”

Nanny Li smiled dryly and said nothing.

Ghostfear was here to kill Ling Yun again.

“Make your move!” he said coldly.

The corners of Ling Yun’s mouth twitched. How many times this month has it been? Could he kill that guy with a zither call?

The two of them fought again.

The neighbor next door had tolerated this troublesome neighbor for a long time. Finally, for the fifth time, he was stepped on and made a report.

The case was handled by the new deputy commander of the Imperial City Division.

After making drastic changes to the organization on taking charge, Su Cheng put righteousness before family and arrested the two of them.

One party’s sword was confiscated, and the other had his zither taken away. The two of them were locked in the same cell and became loving cellmates..
