Chapter 253 Calculation
Bai Susu followed Zhou Ximing on the street, chatting and walking forward.The streets are bustling with people.

Just as she was walking forward, Bai Susu felt her waist loosen.She subconsciously touched her waist, but found that it was empty.

"There are thieves here, and my purse is gone!"

After Bai Susu's words fell, the guards who were secretly hiding all around immediately appeared from various places, fixed their eyes on the thief who kept running forward, and immediately chased after him.

The people around were completely stunned by this scene, watching one person after another passing by.When he reacted, there were more than a dozen guards in front of him, escorting a thief over.

The thief had never seen such a battle before, he immediately knelt on the ground in fright, and handed over the purse he just stole with both hands, with a terrified expression on his face.

"Your Excellency, please spare your life."

Zhou Ximing raised his hand to bring the purse, handed it to Bai Susu, looked at the person kneeling on the ground, and frowned slightly, "It's not the first time you've stolen something, send it to the police."

"Yes." Ah Ying agreed, and raised her hand to let someone take the thief away. Even if the thief begged for mercy, it was useless.

This sudden incident made Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing lose the will to go on a stroll, so they searched for a teahouse and planned to rest here for a while.

Seeing that Bai Susu was holding that purse all the time, Zhou Ximing felt something was wrong, "What did you put in your purse?"

"It's nothing." Bai Susu hung her small pouch on her waist again, and didn't mention the contents of the pouch.

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Zhou Ximing didn't ask any more, but asked the shopkeeper for a pot of boiled water, ordered two plates of dim sum, and put them in front of Bai Susu.

The thief who was escorted to the government mansion was brought back by Aying just as he was escorted to the gate of the mansion, stuffed with a rag, knocked unconscious and brought him to the dungeon of the former palace.

After finishing all this, Ah Ying went to find Zhou Ximing again, stood beside him, and said in a low voice, "Masters, what happened today is probably not an accident."

Bai Susu paused with the hand holding the dim sum. She raised her eyes and looked at A Ying who was standing aside. There was a coldness in her eyes, and she instantly understood the meaning.

"Where is this person taken now?" Zhou Ximing put one hand on the table, subconsciously knocked on the table with his index finger, his voice was low.

"Now being imprisoned by his subordinates in the prison in the palace, he is very loose-mouthed. It will probably take a day for all of them to be recruited."

Bai Susu recalled the thief who took the purse directly from his waist, and always felt that this was not an accident.

But what was in her purse was just a jade pendant carved by herself, which was a birthday gift she planned to give to Zhou Ximing.What use would it be for them to steal this?
Bai Susu lowered her eyes halfway, a flash of thought flashed in her eyes, she couldn't figure out who was trying to attack her.

"We'll talk about this later." Zhou Ximing made a decision, "It's getting late now, so let's go back to the palace earlier."

Bai Susu nodded, took Zhou Ximing's hand, left the teahouse, and returned to the palace.

In the evening, Ah Ying went to the palace with new news.

Take out the man's confession and pass it to Zhou Ximing and Bai Susu.

"This matter seems to have been written by the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment."

Minister of punishment.

Bai Susu had heard of this person before.It is rumored that the servant of the Ministry of Punishment is safe in his work, he is not good at making friends with others, he handles affairs very neatly, but his methods are surprisingly cruel.

It is a type of people that the ministers of the DPRK and China are afraid of and dislike in their hearts.

This lord has never liked to participate in the political affairs of the DPRK and China, so he is low-key.Bai Susu and him were not in a hurry. She didn't understand why he came here to do these things.

"The servant of the Ministry of Justice bribed the thief and wanted him to steal the queen's purse. Afterwards, he can hit the queen in the chaos and cause the queen to have a miscarriage." When A Ying said the last time, his eyes had already wrinkled severely. .

"Secretly escort the minister of punishment to the palace now." Zhou Ximing put the testimonial aside, "If you resist, just break your leg and bring it here."

Hearing this, Ah Ying immediately went to do it.

Bai Susu was not as angry as Zhou Ximing, she picked up a bowl of lukewarm tea, drank it slowly, and thought about the whole thing.

It always felt like a bit of a coincidence.

Ah Ying was just about to send that person to report to the police, when he heard him tell the inside story.Easily let the thief recruit the mastermind behind the scenes and know the specific things.

I always feel that it is the Minister of Criminal Affairs who personally handed over the evidence to them.

She had heard before that the servant of the Ministry of Punishment was over fifty years old, had only one daughter under his knees, and was married to a frontier fortress.It seems that such a person has no reason to treat her like this.

It's just that no matter how Bai Susu guesses, he has to wait until that person comes to know the inside story.

She drank the tea in the cup and ate two more snacks before waiting for A Ying to escort him over.

There was no panic on the face of the servant of the Ministry of Punishment. He strode up to Zhou Ximing and Bai Susu, straightened the wrinkled clothes on his body, and knelt down straight, "Sinner, join the emperor, empress."

He directly called him the guilty minister, and he had already admitted his guilt.

"With your ability, it's not so simple to do things." Zhou Ximing threw the confession on the table in front of the Minister of Criminal Affairs, "Was it ordered by someone, or..."

"It was not ordered by someone." The servant of the Ministry of Punishment spread out the piece of paper scattered on the ground, folded it and placed it on the ground, and lowered his eyes, "I have something to report, so I have to use such methods."

He paused for a moment, then said again: "Although I sent people to steal the queen's purse, I didn't send someone to push it to the queen secretly, I just wanted to ask the queen for a favor."

Seeing the servant of the Ministry of Punishment kneeling there alone, his hands were trembling, and he was trying his best to hold back something.

"If you want to ask me to do something, why do you use such an extreme method?" Bai Susu looked down at him, still puzzled and confused.

"The sinful minister heard that there will be a jade pendant in the purse that the empress carries with her." The lord of the Ministry of punishment looked at Bai Susu, with a wry smile on his face, "With this jade pendant, we can find the female general trained by the empress." Team."

"You want to find a female general?" Bai Susu sensed something was wrong, "Why? The female general in my hand doesn't seem to have provoked the servant."

"Young lady, after marrying far away in the frontier, she joined the army and became a female general." The servant of the criminal department looked straight at Bai Susu, with sadness in his eyes, "She led the female generals to do so many achievements, but no one in the world Remember her."

"Just because the minister's daughter is a woman, the soldiers she leads are also women."
