Once the Crown Prince Joins In

241: Shang Junyan will never be able to marry a wife in this life.

The impression left on him in his previous life was too tragic, so in this life he tried his best to avoid things that he couldn't deal with. New 69 Book Bar→69𝙨𝙝𝙪𝙭.𝙘𝙤𝙢

For example, your own marriage.

For example, King Rong.

His errand has nothing to do with King Rong. Even if his family beat him several times to get closer to King Rong, he would avoid him like a snake or a scorpion. Even if he met King Rong by chance on the road, he would bow to him from a distance and leave. people.

But many times, you can't avoid it if you want to, such as the thing in front of you.

He subconsciously listed the relationships between several people on the paper, and then discovered that with Su Xinyi as the center, everyone was connected, including him.

Shang Junyan was silent.

In the last life, Su Xinyi lived her life as a transparent person. This life seems to be a bit too much...

Very headache.

His eyes fell on Shu Xuebo's name, and he had quite complicated feelings for this cousin.

In his previous life, he designed Su Yi to make him make mistakes, and then took his place in the Royal Forest Army.

In this life, he was not involved in marriage with Su Xinyi, so Luo Shaodeng failed to value Su Yi's position and had no chance to plot against the eldest son of the Duke of Qi.

However, he did not expect Luo Shaodeng to marry Li Xiangxiu.

Liang Ju and Wu Daohong were involved through Li Xiangxiu, so is Luo Shaodeng involved in the plan to injure Su Yi now?

He wasn't sure.

Because Luo Shaodeng plotted against Su Yi in his previous life, in this life he went full circle, but he didn't expect that he would still have something to do with Su Yi's injury.

Shang Junyan is a little angry now, so he can imagine how Su Xinyi is feeling now.

Shang Junyan stayed up until the time to go back to the government office. Now he basically has to stay in the government office until the end. Going home every day is a big torture for him.

His family forced him to marry Yan Qiongsi, but he didn't want to marry, so he was always unhappy.

But today he went home directly after coming out of the Yamen. He first went to greet his grandmother. Before his father came home, he went to his mother's yard. Unexpectedly, his sister was also there.

When Shang Yuqing saw his brother coming back, he cheered up and said hello to him. Princess Pingjing County said to her son, Why are you back so early today?

In the past, I only saw people after dark.

I'm not too busy today so I came back early. Shang Junyan said, then looked up at his sister, hesitated and asked, Why are you here today?

Shang Yuqing once had an unpleasant quarrel with her brother because of Su Xinyi and Yan Qiongsi. She still doesn't like Su Xinyi, and even hates it very much, but she has learned to be smart and won't say it directly in front of her brother.

As for her marriage to Yan Qiongsi, she didn't dare to start it easily now. This time her brother's attitude really surprised her and her mother.

Hearing his brother's question, Shang Yuqing said, It's not because of Aunt Ji's matter that I'm upset, so I'll come back to talk to my mother.

Aunt Ji was the concubine given by her brother-in-law's boss, because Shang Junyan knew that his sister had had troubles several times, and her relationship with her brother-in-law was not as good as before.

He asked his brother-in-law about this matter because he wanted to give him a heads up, because it was difficult to refuse this concubine from his brother-in-law's boss, but he could not make his sister sad because of this concubine.

However, his brother-in-law was also bitter about him. His sister was too strong-tempered, and he usually accommodated her when the couple were together. This time, Aunt Ji's matter was not a big deal. Who among the officials in the capital didn't have a concubine? Room?

But his sister just wouldn't let him go, making quarrels at home and out, and teasing Ji a lot. He was really upset. In addition, Ji's gentle nature is completely opposite to his sister's temperament. In contrast, the brother-in-law naturally prefers Aunt Ji.

Shang Junyan also advised his sister to change her temper. The two couples were not enemies when they got along, but there was nothing he could do if his sister would listen.

Shang Junyan knew that in his previous life, Aunt Ji's sister and brother-in-law had been having trouble for a while. Later, Aunt Ji had a difficult delivery and neither the adult nor the child survived. However, the brother-in-law suspected that it was his sister who had done it. From then on, the couple There is no sympathy at all.

It's just that in his last life, he always believed his sister's words and always thought it was his brother-in-law's fault. But in this life, he looked at it from another angle. He knew that his sister, who was afraid of killing Aunt Ji, must have stretched out her hand.

Therefore, in this life, he reminded his brother-in-law that if his sister was unhappy because of Aunt Ji, it would be better to send Aunt Ji to live in Zhuangzi for a while, and then take her back after she gave birth to the child safely.

But he didn't know if his brother-in-law had listened. From what his sister said, he probably hadn't yet.

Sister, Aunt Ji is just a concubine. Even if she gives birth to a child, she is just a concubine and will not threaten you and the child. Besides, Aunt Ji is not an ordinary aunt. It's okay if you treat her a little harshly in the back house. But if she wants to live well, you have to let her brother-in-law answer to her boss. Shang Junyan knew his sister's temperament and could never tell her to treat Aunt Ji well, so he could only persuade her in a roundabout way.

Shang Yuqing was unwilling to listen to his brother's words, and said with a dark face: It's because you think this way that your brother-in-law is more confident. If you are willing to stand up for me, how can he be so bold?

I can stand up for you, but if I really have to deal with Aunt Ji, my brother-in-law has offended his boss. If there is a problem with his career in the future, he will blame you. Sister, you have to think about it. Shang Junyan spoke calmly.

With our family alone, how can his boss really make things difficult for him? Shang Yuqing said angrily.

Shang Junyan glanced at his mother.

Princess Pingjing met her son's gaze, lowered her eyes slightly, and raised the tea cup in front of her.

Shang Junyan knew that his mother meant not to express her position. He was not surprised at all, so he smiled, My brother-in-law is a royal censor, and our family is a noble family. We have always had a clear distinction between officials and nobles. Our family is really I can't interfere in my brother-in-law's affairs.

Shang Yuqing was blocked by her younger brother. Could she be confused?

Isn't it just that she hopes that her brother can stand up for her as a sister and say a word of support for her, is it so difficult?

When Shang Junyan saw his sister's disappointed and angry look, he found that his mood was very calm at this moment, Sister, our surnames are granted only after three generations, and I am exactly the third generation. If I were here in this life, If there is not much success in the official career, then the next generation may not be able to receive even the grace and honor of being demoted, and our family may be left in vain.

You are so capable, how could you do this? Shang Yuqing said immediately.

Official reputation is the most difficult to accumulate. If I help you force my brother-in-law to deal with Aunt Ji, you can guarantee that my brother-in-law will not bear any grudge against us and interfere with my career in the future? A concubine for Aunt Ji is nothing, but her belly The child here is indeed a member of the Yan family. Sister, please leave a trace in your life so that we can meet each other easily in the future. Even if we are in-laws, there is no reason for one party to only provide for the other.

Shang Yuqing's face changed slightly after hearing his brother's words, and he couldn't help but complain, If you are willing to agree to marry Princess Runyi, why should we be in such a difficult situation?

Sister, you can't stand having Aunt Ji next to your brother-in-law. You want me to marry a woman I don't like as my wife and watch her for the rest of my life? Shang Junyan's voice gradually became colder.

Okay, what are you two siblings arguing about? Princess Pingjing slapped the table and said angrily.

Shang Junyan stood up, looked at his mother and said, Mom, you'd better advise my sister not to attack Aunt Ji and the child in her belly. As a censor, my brother-in-law has a bit of stubbornness and fairness in his temper. If something really happens to Aunt Ji, and if my brother-in-law finds any clues related to my sister, then the marriage between my sister and her husband will be over for the rest of my life. Son, if you have other things to do, just take the first step.

Shang Junyan originally wanted to ask about Luo Shaodeng, but it was obvious that he couldn't ask him about it now.

As soon as Shang Junyan left, Shang Yuqing said to his mother: Listen to this, listen to what I said. He is so powerful, but he helps me instead of helping outsiders. If he agrees to go Princess Runyi is so kind. Once the two families get married, our family won't have to worry about the title, but he is so stubborn.

Princess Pingjing's face slowly darkened as she listened to her daughter's complaints. She looked at her and said, You have to rein in your temper. What your brother said makes some sense. It's just a concubine. The more you target her, , the more a man wants to protect her. If you raise your hand and ignore her, he will slowly let go of her hand. When she loses favor, it is not your business what you want to do with her? I'm afraid that the son-in-law will ask her at that time. Not even a question.

Shang Yuqing:...

She has to endure it for who knows how many more years. If she can endure it, why would she return to her parents' home?

Shang Yuqing left angrily. Princess Pingjing's head hurt very much. They used to be her pride, but now they are all disobedient.

As the case of Wu Daohong's attack was filed, the atmosphere in the court became a little strange. King Rong did not expect that the matter would develop to this point. He thought that it was really just a testimony, but now he found that his eldest brother was still more powerful. Indeed, things turned out much differently than he expected.

After finally getting to the next court, he was about to go to his eldest brother to discuss it, but was stopped by the Minister of Punishment.

His Royal Highness King Rong.

When King Rong faced Liang Fuyan's old face, he knew he couldn't run away. He simply stood still and looked at him, Hey, Master Liang, why do you want to stop me?

Liang Fuyan didn't care at all about King Rong's cold face. He looked at him and said: The person most suspected of Wu Daohong's injury is the Yong'an County Lord of the Duke of Qi. Now His Highness is testifying for the County Lord. The minister has been ordered by His Majesty to preside over the trial. Please cooperate with me to record your testimony.

King Rong knew he couldn't run away, so he said openly: Okay, when will we go?

Liang Fuyan thought that King Rong was unwilling to cooperate and that he would have to work hard. Unexpectedly, it was so happy this time that it made his impression of King Rong a little better. After all, this person's temperament has always been elusive and he will give it to you at any time. Do something.

It's better to choose a different day than to hit it, what about now?

King Rong:......

Okay. Fortunately, he didn't panic. He had already confessed to his eldest brother and Su Xinyi earlier. Otherwise, his eldest brother was careful and careful in his work, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to get out today.

The news that King Rong followed Liang Fuyan to the Ministry of Punishment to record a confession quickly spread throughout the country. After the court, many officials saw his coming and going.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Justice before he entered, King Rong saw someone coming out. He said in surprise, Hey, Shang Junyan, why are you here? You should be working in the Ministry of Household Affairs, right?

Before Shang Junyan could speak, Liang Fuyan said with a smile: Your Highness, you don't know. When Mr. Shang was working in the Ministry of Justice, I admired his ability to solve cases and investigate. This time, I will temporarily second him from the Ministry of Household Affairs for a few days. help.

King Rong:......

Shang Junyan was rude to King Rong and said, I will pay my respects to the prince.

When King Rong looked at Shang Junyan's face, he felt quite complicated. In fact, although the relationship between the two was not very close before, it was okay because of Qiongsi. But since he refused to marry Qiongsi one after another, how could he look at this now? My whole face felt uncomfortable.

Lord Shang, there is no need to be polite. King Rong waved his hand, decided to be out of sight and out of mind, and walked towards the lobby of the Ministry of Justice.

Little did we know that the road between enemies was so narrow, and it was Shang Junyan who took the confession.

The two stared at each other, Liang Fuyan pretended not to notice, assigned Shang Junyan a record-keeping subordinate, and he left first.

The hard nut to crack for King Rong is to be left to capable young people.

Shang Junyan started to ask seriously, Your Majesty, at what time and where did you meet the Lord of Yong'an County on the day of the incident?

Prince Rong looked at Shang Junyan, Are you asking about someone missing? I was listening to a play at the Yuande Theater with my eldest brother. I can't remember the specific time. You see, I look similar. Are you someone who keeps track of time?

Then you always remember which play was performed in Yuande Theater at that time, right? Shang Junyan asked meticulously.

King Rong took a breath and then said: Remember...

The two of them asked and answered questions. Shang Junyan was always serious in his work. Moreover, even he suspected that the matter had something to do with Su Xinyi, but he just thought that guilt could not be based on conjecture without evidence. In this case, he naturally had to be serious in his work and should ask questions. Everyone has to ask, and no one can find any mistakes.

Shang Junyan asked in detail, almost making King Rong furious. Why didn't he find Shang Junyan so annoying before?

After Shang Junyan asked the last question, he watched the person taking notes beside him finish writing, and then he stood up and said to Prince Rong, Thank you for your cooperation, Your Highness. I have finished asking the questions. Your Majesty can leave.

King Rong stood up and looked at Shang Junyan before leaving, Qiong Si doesn't have to marry you. It's really her blessing.

With Shang Junyan's temperament, he probably won't be able to get a wife in this life, it's so annoying.

King Rong rolled up his sleeves and left. Shang Junyan didn't take these words to heart at all, but the recordkeeper around him felt aggrieved for him. His Highness King Rong's words were too hurtful. Lord Shang was just doing things impartially.

King Rong left the palace, thought about it, and went directly to the Duke of Qi's mansion. After he was invited by the Ministry of Justice for questioning, it seemed that there would be nothing wrong with him visiting Su Xinyi.
