A little devil has arrived at the Marquis's mansion, and all the powerful officials in the cour

"Little Celestial Master, it's me."

As an official appointed by the imperial court, it was almost unheard of for Vice Minister Du to have a sword held to his throat.

He swallowed hard and quickly spoke.

Renbao poked his head out and asked, "What do you want?"

Tao Xiang sheathed her sword, helped Ren Bao off the carriage, and entered the Su residence with unwavering eyes.

As for Vice Minister Du, she didn't even glance at him.

Having spent so much time by Renbao's side, she had even come into close contact with ghosts and spirits, so she had no fear of a mere court official.

What an arrogant maid!

Vice Minister Du was somewhat displeased, but he couldn't show it, so he had to smile apologetically and follow him inside.

His servant followed behind, carrying a sandalwood chest filled with gold.

As Renbao entered the main hall, he rubbed his stomach and said, "Sister Taozixiang, Renbao is hungry. I want to eat Auntie Cook's plain noodles!"

Tao Xiang has not yet answered.

The cook, spatula in hand, came over at the sound of the commotion, beaming, "Young lady, please wait here. Besides plain noodles, would you like to try some new dishes? We have crispy fried pork, fried dough twists, tofu pudding..."

"Yes! Renbao wants it all! Auntie's cooking is so good, Renbao's mouth is watering!" Renbao said crisply.

The cook laughed heartily. Hearing Renbao's sweet praise, she felt like she had an inexhaustible supply of energy.

"Young Miss, wait here!" she shouted back. As she passed by Minister Du, she didn't even glance at him, and almost bumped into him with her shoulder.

Vice Minister Du's temples twitched, and he held his breath.

The servants in the Su residence are all so unruly.

Renbao climbed onto the armchair and gulped down a bowl of sweet water.

Vice Minister Du was about to speak.

When Su Shuying returned from school, she strode into the main hall, her voice filled with joy: "Renbao!"

"Sister!" Renbao jumped off the stool, her chubby little legs carrying her into Su Shuying's arms. She buried her face in Su Shuying's neck and rubbed against her, saying softly, "Sister, Renbao missed you so much!"

"Children shouldn't talk about death." Su Shuying looked at her with affection and gently pinched her chubby little cheek. "Sister brought you candied hawthorns."

Renbao's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "I love candied hawthorns, but I love my sister even more!"

Su Shuying laughed, "You little rascal."

She picked up Renbao and only then noticed the presence of Vice Minister Du.

"Lord Du." Su Shuying's smile faded, and she gave him a slight nod.

Vice Minister Du couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Miss Su is the most talented woman in the capital. What I have seen today has disappointed me. Both of you sisters have shown a lack of respect for your elders."

"Such a scholar as the Imperial Censor Su should be very good at educating his children."

As soon as he finished speaking, the main hall fell silent.

The servants he brought were all a bit bewildered.

If I'm not mistaken.

Wasn't my master here to ask the young Taoist master for help? Why is he giving his opinion...?

Renbao didn't quite understand, but she knew that what Vice Minister Du said wasn't anything good.

"Sister, is he babbling something, saying we're not good?" Renbao asked.

Su Shuying rubbed her little head, her gaze towards Minister Du was somewhat cold: "Minister Du, the father is to blame for the son's misbehavior. I'll pass on this saying to you."

Vice Minister Du's expression changed slightly, and he remembered why he had come to the Su residence.

"Renbao, these are gifts from your uncle. Could you please ask your father to be lenient and release my son?" Minister Du took a deep breath and forced a smile. "I was just being reckless."

Renbao shook his head, still speaking in a childish voice, but his words hit the nail on the head: "You're trying to bribe me."

Vice Minister Du's expression stiffened slightly, and he smoothed things over by saying, "How can this be called bribery? Renbao is young and doesn't know the intricacies of officialdom."

We are a distinguished family, and it is only right that we help each other and unite as one to establish ourselves permanently in the capital. Don't you agree?

Renbao took a bite of the candied hawthorn and blinked: "Renbao doesn't understand."

Minister Du felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat.

This is what it means to play the lute to a cow!

He looked at Su Shuying: "Miss Su..."

Su Shuying interrupted him: "Your son has taken several lives, so he must pay with his life. Instead of trying to bribe him with gifts, Lord Du, you should go back and prepare to collect his body and repent on his behalf."

"You!" Vice Minister Du's face suddenly darkened. "Fine! Very well indeed. As expected of Su Xuance's daughter. I'd like to see if your father can hold onto his position as Minister of the Court of Judicial Review if he tries to fight against our Du family!"

He stormed off in anger.

The servants of the Du family looked at each other in bewilderment.

Are they going to take this gold back with them?

"You can leave now, and take all your belongings with you," Su Shuying said.

The servant nodded hurriedly, "You came this way, and you'll go back the same way."

Renbao licked a candied hawthorn and asked, "Sister, is he threatening us?"

Su Shuying nodded: "Yes, is Renbao afraid?"

"Renbao isn't afraid!" Renbao patted his chest confidently. "If Uncle Emperor listens to him, I'll..."

Su Shuying grasped her wrist: "Don't hit yourself so hard, what's wrong with you?"

"Renbao, kill him! I'll become the boss of the human world, and let Daddy be number two!" Renbao shouted with great energy.

Su Shuying's mind went blank.

She never expected that Renbao would think this way; wasn't this tantamount to rebellion?

She looked down in shock.

Renbao looked up innocently and chuckled, "Mommy will be the third child, and Sister will be the fourth."

Su Shuying coughed, trying to tell Renbao in a language she could understand that these words couldn't be said.

"Miss, the plain noodles and fried pork are ready!" Tao Xiang brought out the food.

The aroma filled the air, and Renbao swallowed hard, her entire attention drawn to it: "Sister, eat some!"

Renbao's adorable appearance made Su Shuying's eyes crinkle with joy. Oh well, her Renbao is only three years old, and children speak without thinking.

.

Vice Minister Du returned to his residence with a livid face.

Madam Tian stepped forward, asking expectantly, "Master, has Lord Su agreed to release Fei'er?"

Vice Minister Du kept a long face and remained silent.

"Master!" Madam Tian stamped her foot anxiously.

*Slap!* A sharp slap landed on her face.

Tian covered her face, her eyes filled with tears, and cried out in despair, "You actually hit me! Our son is about to die, and you still have the nerve to sit still!"

Minister Du was already in a bad mood, and her shout made him even angrier and angrier. He said in a grief-stricken tone.

"You forcibly abducted women and murdered entire families. This is the kind of son you raised. Su Xuance and his two daughters are both stubborn and impervious to reason."

The aggrieved party beats the drum to appeal to the emperor, saying, "Even if I were a god, I couldn't save him today!"

Madam Tian collapsed to the ground, covering her face and wailing, "This shouldn't have happened, it shouldn't have happened! You are Minister Du, in the court, besides His Majesty, who wouldn't give you some face?"

.

"My father is Vice Minister Du, let me out!"

Du Congfei cried out these words in prison.

The constable leaned against the wall, not even lifting his eyelids when he heard this, and said sarcastically, "Stop yelling. Your father is Vice Minister Du, and our Lord Su's little daughter is a little celestial master."

"A higher rank can crush you, don't you know that?"

Du Congfei's face turned ashen, and he knelt on the ground with a thud, pleading, "I want to see the Little Celestial Master."

Upon hearing this, the constable glanced at him and sneered, "Do you think you can just see the Little Celestial Master whenever you want? Go to sleep early. You'll be on your way after your last meal tomorrow. Cherish your last night alive."

The next day, at noon.

The son of Vice Minister Du is about to be executed.

People from the capital flocked to the execution ground, making it completely packed.

Feng Banxia stood in the front row, her gaze filled with resentment and coldness as she stared at Du Congfei, who was kneeling.

She wanted to see him die with her own eyes!

"Execute!" came the shout.

The executioner spat a mouthful of strong liquor onto his broadsword and slashed at Du Congfei's neck.

Just then, a cold arrow shot towards the executioner's wrist, accompanied by a loud shout.

"Spare his life!"
