Your query is almost correct, you simply need to move the query_string query inside the bool/must section:

{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": {
        "query_string": {
          "default_field": "shipmentId",
          "query": "\"123\""
        }
      },
      "filter": {
        "terms": {
          "exceptionId": [
            "1",
            "2"
          ]
        }
      },
      "must_not": {
        "terms": {
          "id": [
            "1"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
