Shen Nanshan immediately understood what Yao Shu meant, and said in a pretentious manner: "In my memory, there seems to be no such person. Could it be that children who have no one to discipline them can be so bad?"

Seeing how successful he was, Yao Shu blinked at him with satisfaction.

Feeling Yao Shu's approval, Shen Nanshan's face was full of pride, and the corner of his mouth raised a proud smile.

The onlookers were even more worried about them. In the capital, everyone knew about the arrogance of Young Master Li.

He did evil because his father was the Minister of Rites. Although he is young, he has no ability to judge right from wrong. It seems that as long as he wants something, he will do whatever it takes to get it.

Yao Shu inevitably had doubts in her heart, why a minister of the Ministry of Rites had the courage to compete with the prime minister for power. Moreover, the emperor does not seem to be an unreasonable person, so why did he allow these two gangs to cause trouble in the court.

Yao Shu couldn't think clearly, so she buried this question in her heart.

"You are so brave, how dare you say such a thing. If my father finds out, you will be left with nothing to eat." Mr. Li snorted coldly and did not continue to speak.

"Young Master's father?" Yao Shu raised her eyebrows and spoke in a feigned fear, "It turns out that Young Master's background is so powerful."

"Are you scared?" Mr. Li opened the door curtain and strode out.

He has a gentle appearance and looks extremely easy-going. It is really sad that such people can be so domineering.

Mr. Li's face was full of pride, and he couldn't wait to see Yao Shu's panicked look. What disappointed him was that neither Yao Shu nor Shen Nanshan had any change in their expressions.

Yao Shu had already noticed his identity, so she wouldn't be surprised. As for Shen Nanshan, he simply didn't know the person in front of him.

"It turns out to be Mr. Li, the Minister of Rites. I'm sorry. I looked at your carriage again. There is no damage. If you really want fifty taels of silver for this, it's not a bad idea." Yao Shu said, starting from her own carriage. He took out the money bag from his arms.

The bulging money immediately made Mr. Li smile.

"It's just... if others knew that the son of the Minister of Rites was blackmailing him in public, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the Minister of Rites? Wouldn't Master Li think twice about such a big matter?"

No one can get money from Yao Shu for no reason, let alone by blackmail. She will not allow anyone to touch her bottom line.

She is an out-and-out miser. After all, she has traveled all the way, moved around, and gone through many hardships to save the money she has today. Nowadays, a young boy who has not yet grown up dares to directly extort fifty taels of silver, which is incredible no matter how you hear it.

Mr. Li was stunned when he heard Yao Shu's words.

He usually used his father's name to threaten others, but no one had ever dared to threaten him like Yao Shu.

He hesitated for a moment, but did not explain why. In the end, he could only leave the crowd with a blushing face. Before leaving, he looked at Yao Shu fiercely from the window, as if he was trying to remember her appearance.

Seeing Yao Shu actually forcing Mr. Li away, the people present were all smiling.

Everyone has been influenced by Mr. Li to a certain extent. As long as it is something he likes, we will get it no matter what. All the stall owners complained endlessly. Every day and night, they were worried that Mr. Li would come to their stalls on a whim.

Yao Shu felt the joy on everyone's faces, and slowly made a plan in her heart.

"Old lady, he is actually the son of the Minister of Rites. If we offend the Minister of Rites, what should we do in the future?" Shen Nanshan is not aware of the current disputes in the court, but he understands that the official position of the Minister of Rites is extremely important. If we offend him, The Shen family will definitely not get good results.

"It doesn't matter, what if they don't dare to attack our Shen family? Now, the Shen family and Ningyuan Hou are connected together. If they dare to touch our Shen family, they will directly declare war on Ningyuan Hou, and they will not have any good fruits in the future. Now you can Don't worry about these things, I just need to take the children back to Shen's house quickly, I have important matters to discuss." Yao Shu dismissed Shen Nanshan's thoughts with a few words, but she did not say anything more in-depth in public.

There are many people talking in the market, and it is inevitable that others will listen to them.

Back at Shen's house, everyone looked at Yao Shu's serious face and very unhappy expression, and thought it was because of what happened just now that she was in a bad mood.

Shen Fugui was the first to speak: "Mom, you can't blame my dad for this. I wanted to go out, so dad took us to the market. We didn't expect to meet Mr. Li, let alone guess that since he had exported It costs fifty taels of silver. If we had known that something like this would happen, we would definitely not have saved that little girl today."

On the way back, Yao Shu also found out what happened.

They saw a little girl falling in the middle of the road, and a carriage was about to roar by. In desperation, they accidentally bumped into the carriage in order to save the little girl.

Yao Shu frowned and quickly asked: "Are you okay?"

Shen Fugui waved his hand subconsciously: "The child is fine and has been taken away by her family."

"You stupid kid, I'm not talking about that kid, I'm talking about you. Didn't you say you hit the carriage, do you feel any discomfort now?"

Shen Fugui's eyes turned red, and his heart was filled with emotion: "I don't feel uncomfortable at all, mom, don't worry, it's just a small scratch, it won't affect you."

"It's okay. Next time you encounter such a situation, you must ensure your own safety first. You did a good thing today, so don't feel any guilt. The son of the Minister of Rites is a rude person. Today we It's not like you did something wrong. It's just that you must be more careful. In this capital, just a random person may be someone we can't afford to offend." Yao Shu thought for a while, but still didn't mention the recent news. Tell them what they learned about the court disputes.

Firstly, I don't want to cause them to panic, and secondly, I haven't had the right opportunity to tell them rashly, and it might be a disservice to them.

"Mom, since I have nothing to do now, I want to pack my things and return to the military camp in the next few days. I have been on vacation for a while, and I have also lost some time in prison these days. It is not good if I don't go back soon. Yes." Shen Qiu hesitated for a moment and then said softly.

"Don't be anxious about returning to the military camp. General Ling is also in the capital these days. I think he has important matters to deal with. Maybe you can see him in these days."
