Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Su Xinyi kept thinking about a problem on the way back to the East Palace. Now that King Rong is not in the capital, there is no one to help His Majesty gain favor in front of him.

After all, with King Rong's naivety and straightforwardness, His Majesty could raise the prince's image in his mind without doing anything.

Now King Rong is not here, King Xiang is wilted again, King Jing and King Wu are still unclear about their character, and there is also You Xiangzhi who is eyeing the tiger and pulling His Highness’s mother-in-law to be the banner. In addition, there are others in Prince Xiang’s Mansion. There is an ambush cloud whose depth is unclear. It is simply ambush from all sides.

She felt that it was not possible to continue like this. His Highness was a gentleman with clear breeze and bright moon. He was the crown prince of a country and the future king. He must not do anything that was disrespectful to his status.

Then she had no choice but to bite the bullet.

But she has never done anything like this, but thinking about her own father's temperament, it seems that it would not be impossible if she could escape from this temperament.

The thickness of my skin needs some training.

Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi and blushed as she walked, so he asked her softly, What's wrong?

Su Xinyi coughed lightly, how could he say such shameless things in front of His Highness?

That is absolutely impossible. Since her rebirth, although she cannot say that she wants to live with a clear name in the world, she does not want to live as a demon king.

As expected, there is no such thing as a pie falling out of thin air these days, and it’s not easy for a princess to do it.

Fortunately, she is very familiar with King Rong, so she can still imitate him.

It's nothing, Your Highness, don't worry. Su Xinyi said immediately with a smile.

Yan Junchu felt strange, but A Yuan didn't want to talk about it, and he wouldn't get to the bottom of it.

Su Xinyi felt relieved, hey, His Highness is indeed a good person.

Yan Junchu went back to the East Palace directly, but Su Xinyi did not. He had to help wrap up the banquet and make sure to gain favor in front of the queen.

If she wanted to pull the Queen on board before, she was a bit reluctant to do so, but now she doesn't think so. She wants to unite all the forces that can be united. Now the Queen has a great tendency towards the East Palace. She Naturally, I have to work harder to conquer it completely.

For such a good person as His Highness, who has served the country and the people, he should sit firmly in the position of Crown Prince, and no one can shake him.

In the past, she just wanted to repay her kindness, but now she not only wants to repay her kindness, His Highness is still her husband, and will be the father of her children in the future. His Highness is so kind to her, so of course she is willing to go through fire and water for His Highness.

She is willing to be thicker-skinned, work harder, and have a sweeter mouth. It doesn't matter.

This time, Su Xinyi took the people from Yuanhui Palace to arrange the follow-up of the banquet, and then went to Yuanhui Palace to see the queen.

The Queen had already changed into regular clothes and even removed her phoenix crown and hair bun. When she arrived, Aunt Zhao was combing the Queen's hair again.

Su Xinyi thought that now he could watch the queen dressing up on the spot. This was considered a very close distance. Well, he was very satisfied.

Mother, I see that you don't look very good, and you are still worried about You Xiangzhe? Su Xinyi naturally took the teacup from the palace maid's hand and placed it in the queen's hand so that she could pick it up and drink it.

Then, she sat down on the brocade stool next to the queen, and then picked a jade hairpin and handed it to Aunt Zhao to tie the queen's hair.

Aunt Zhao was stunned for a moment. The princess handed her a hairpin and a cup of tea. How could this be a bit scary?

But seeing that the Queen didn't seem to think anything of it at all, she took it carefully and complimented her with a smile, The Crown Princess really cares about the Queen. If the next few princesses are as filial as you, the Queen will be the best. I can enjoy the blessing.

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, Oh, Aunt Zhao is such a good person. No wonder she can become the most capable person around the Queen. Why didn't she notice this ability before?

The queen was stunned by what Aunt Zhao said. Her thoughts had been immersed in what happened at the banquet. Only when she came back to her senses did she understand what Aunt Zhao said.

To be honest, she only became friends with Su Xinyi for the sake of her son, but she never expected that Su Xinyi would treat her so carefully, which made her feel very complicated.

You don't have to do these things, there are palace servants here.

Mother, when I am at home, I often do these things for my mother. If you treat me sincerely, I will naturally repay you. Just don't dislike me. Su Xinyi smiled so much that her face turned into a flower. .

When the queen looked at Su Xinyi, she didn't mean to flatter her, but sincerely. She felt that she had been a little too much towards this little girl in the past. This child had a bigger temper and was a little fierce, but he had a pure heart. No wonder her son was willing to follow her after being beaten several times by her.

Thinking of this, the last bit of dissatisfaction that was still lingering in my heart disappeared. She looked at Su Xinyi and said with a smile: You have been with me these days, and my Yuanhui Palace has become lively. I want to have a daughter like you. , I laugh even in my dreams.”

Daughter-in-law is just like daughter, we are all one family. Su Xinyi said immediately with a smile.

The queen is a little selfish sometimes, but there is nothing wrong with her for thinking about her own son. Sometimes she does things more straightforwardly, but who made her the queen and have this right? Now that I think about it, there is nothing wrong with her.

As long as this giant Buddha gets on her boat, she can walk sideways in the harem!

The queen felt that Su Xinyi's mouth was as if she had honey on it today, and every word she spoke spoke to her heart. At the end, when she talked about You Xiangzhe, it was with some sincerity.

The late Queen is a virtuous and virtuous person. Although I have not met the late Queen a few times, I still respect her very much in my heart. The Queen sighed.

Su Xinyi didn't know how credible this statement was, but looking at the queen's tone and demeanor, it seemed that she was sincere.

Your Majesty has a very good relationship with the late Queen. At that time, Concubine Li was just a concubine. She was nothing in front of the late Queen. How can she compare with the late Queen. When mentioning Concubine Li, the Queen's demeanor became more disdainful.

Mother, I heard that Concubine Li seemed to be plotting the position of queen. Is it true? Su Xinyi asked with a smile.

Of course it's true. The queen now feels that she is much closer to Su Xinyi, and her son has no hope of becoming the prince. It is better to be tied to the East Palace. As long as the prince is good to her son, she will be fine. If she didn't say it before Now she can say, It's just that she didn't want to think about it. Behind her was Taishi Li. What would the prince do if he made her his queen? At that time, the late empress had just left. His majesty had a deep love for the late empress and would never give him anything. The prince brings trouble.”

Su Xinyi understood. The emperor's affection for the late empress was at the most difficult time to let go. Looking at the young son left by his beloved wife, he would inevitably be overflowing with paternal love. At this time, the first thing to think about was to protect the late empress. The queen's son.

Not only will they not make Concubine Li the queen, but when choosing a queen, they can only choose one whose family background is not a threat at all.

Now I understand, it’s no wonder that the queen was chosen. This natal family was indeed a hindrance. His Majesty gave him the title of Chengen Gong. Later, the Shu family made a mistake and took it back. Later, he was given a minor official and was demoted to a commoner for another mistake.

Tsk, the Queen's natal family is not so miserable.

The Queen was a little melancholy as she spoke. In fact, His Majesty treated her well. Although he was not as doting as Concubine Li, he was good to her son. As long as he was good to her son, even if His Majesty was average to her, as long as he was still sitting next to the Queen. She was satisfied with her position. New 69 Book Bar→69𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒙.𝒄𝒐𝒎

So what if Concubine Li is favored? Your Majesty doesn't like King Xiang, but does he really dislike King Xiang?

In fact, this is not necessarily the case. Your Majesty is still a different kind of force that suppresses the Li family. If your Majesty shows that you like Prince Xiang, then the people headed by Grand Master Li may have already blatantly tried their best to position the prince.

Humph, what His Majesty said about being deeply in love seemed to her to be false.

The most important thing in His Majesty's heart is the prince. Of course, her son is a hindrance to his maternal family, and he has a place in His Majesty's heart.

Mother, do you think You Xiangzhe will be chosen to enter the palace? Su Xinyi asked now, not very sure.

The queen waved her hand to ask Nanny Zhao to go down, then looked at Su Xinyi and said, Yes.

Su Xinyi didn't expect the queen to be so determined, and was stunned for a moment, Really?

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly and said, That face is at least 50-60 similar to the late queen's.

Su Xinyi:......

The queen sneered, Prince Xiang kept in touch with the courtiers in private during the period when the prince went on the expedition. I think the timing of You Xiangzhe's entry into the palace is a bit subtle.

Su Xinyi's mind flashed, What does the Queen Mother mean, that the Emperor Father will use You Xiangzhi to suppress Concubine Li Guifei and her son?

It's just a guess, maybe it's wrong. The queen shook her head and said, But for us, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. It depends on whether You Xiangzhe is smart or stupid.

If after entering the palace, he can't even go a few rounds under Concubine Li, what's the use of such a fool.

But it's not good if someone is too smart. Not only can they not just read the joke, but they also have to prevent her from taking a bite.

Su Xinyi had never expected that the queen could be so thoughtful and put down her own interests to take care of the overall situation. This surprised her. It was not unreasonable for her to be on equal footing with Concubine Li in the harem, and even to the extent of suppressing her.

Su Xinyi came out of Yuanhui Palace and walked on the way back to the East Palace, wondering what her next step should be.

After returning to the East Palace, His Highness was not in the Deyang Palace. She first changed into the heavy and gorgeous crown princess dress, briefly washed herself, changed into regular clothes, and went to the study as a habit, briefly describing the events of this period. Take a note and list everyone's relationships on paper.

Looking at the names on the paper, Su Xinyi found that the people around King Xiang were interesting. Xu Yurong's ex-husband was Shu Xuebo, and there was Yan Qiongsi involved in Yuling'an. These two people were very close to the queen. .

What does King Xiang want to do?

She didn't consider it a friendly exchange.

Just before she had a clue, Yan Junchu came back. He didn't see anyone in the main hall, so he went directly to the study room, and sure enough, he saw A Yuan with a frown on his face.

Su Xinyi heard the footsteps and looked up, and saw His Highness coming in. She stood up with a smile, Your Highness, are you done?

Yan Junchu nodded, There are some things that need to be dealt with. What are you doing?

Su Xinyi handed over what he had written and said, Write whatever you want.

Yan Junchu took it and took a look at it, and immediately smiled, It's well written.

Su Xinyi:......

Yan Junchu took Su Xinyi's hand and returned to the main hall. After the two sat down, Forsythia led someone to serve tea, then bowed and retreated.

Su Xinyi took a sip of tea and looked at His Highness, not knowing what to say for a while.

Yan Junchu looked at her like this with eyes full of smiles, What do you want to say?

Su Xinyi thought about it and said, Do you think You Xiangzhi will enter the palace?

Yan Junchu looked up at Xin Yi, Are you worried?

I just find it disgusting.

Yan Junchu was amused, It doesn't matter to us whether you enter the palace or not. Even if I meet you in the harem, I will just treat you as a stranger. I think she will be embarrassed to have a relationship with you.

This has been a mess for a generation. Father, you won't really bring people into the palace, right? The more Su Xinyi thought about it, the more disgusting she felt. What the hell is this?

What does this mean? Yan Junchu didn't care. He counted the sisters, aunts and nephews in the harem. For the sake of power and interests, what do these human relations mean?

Su Xinyi:......

She is short-sighted.

Yan Junchu knew that A Yuan was in a bad mood because of him. He stared at her and said seriously, I really don't care. In my heart, they are no longer relatives.

Su Xinyi let out a sigh of relief, Yes, the person who can do this is indeed not a human being.

Yan Junchu smiled even happier, Don't be sad.

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness, and he advised her not to be sad. He was obviously the most saddened by this matter.

In this battle at Zhangping Mansion, when will my father reward me for my merits? Su Xinyi has been thinking about this matter, And there should be a conclusion about the traitor.

Soon.

Who was found in the capital to be colluding with the Zhangping Mansion?

Two ministers from the Ministry of War.

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness in surprise, There are only two ministers?

The rest haven't been tried yet, but there's little hope. These two are going to bite each other hard.

Su Xinyi is not in a good mood. This means taking the blame with one's own body and will not reveal the person behind the scenes.

Is there no other way?

The only evidence found so far is to find them, and more unless these two people spit it out, but it seems there is little hope now. Yan Junchu held Xin Yi's hand and said softly, They should have something in their hands. .”

Can't you find out?

We can't find out at the moment. Yan Junchu said, These two ministers have a very good reputation. If the evidence hadn't been conclusive, I wouldn't have thought it would be them.

Su Xinyi knew that the people under Her Highness must be more powerful than her. These people could not make these two people confess, unless they could get the evidence that they were being threatened, otherwise there would be nothing they could do.

This is really annoying. Su Xinyi said through gritted teeth.

Thinking of the soldiers who died in the battle in Zhangping Mansion, like the civilians who died defending the city, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Yan Junchu took her into his arms and patted her back gently, Don't worry, I will catch them all one day.

Behind King Xiang stood Taishi Li. Taishi Li had been an official for decades. He had countless disciples throughout the dynasty and knew many secrets. Even Yan Junchu was in trouble.

Su Xinyi really wanted Shang Junyan to be the prince's staff. He must know many secrets, but it didn't work.

She suppressed this extravagant hope. Even if she walked around more and listened to political affairs more in her previous life, she would not be as clueless as she is now.

Because in her previous life, she had basically no contact with people from Concubine Li's family, so how could she know each other's secrets.

Your Highness, Lord Wang, please see me. Zhang Jian's voice sounded outside.

Yan Junchu still wanted to spend more time with Xin Yi, but now he had to stand up and said to Xin Yi: Wang Ce went to investigate the matter of Yuling Temple. If there may be any news, I will go over and take a look.

Yuling Temple?

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up and she nodded quickly, Your Highness, please go down.

Yan Junchu:......

The prince didn't come back until late at night. Su Xinyi originally wanted to wait, but he had to go to Yuanhui Palace the next day, so he had to rest first.

When she was drowsy, she felt that there was another person beside her, and the familiar smell made her feel relieved and fell asleep again.

Yan Junchu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought that it was really hard to be busy with the summer banquet these days, so he suppressed his thoughts, held the person in his arms and closed his eyes.

***

A few days after the summer banquet, His Majesty rewarded the soldiers for their merits in the battle at Zhangping Mansion in the morning.

His Royal Highness is already the crown prince. He received a few compliments from His Majesty and was given some gold and silver as a formality. The most important thing is those few compliments from His Majesty.

Your Majesty has so many sons, but not many of them can be so praised by Your Majesty.

In addition, Qin Guansheng was promoted to command Qianshi, Li Shu from one hundred households under him was promoted to one thousand households, Huang Kan was promoted to one thousand households, and Su Qi was promoted to one hundred households. In addition to those who returned to Beijing, everyone who stayed in Yulin Guard and Yunxiang Guard had their own rewards. The commanders of the guard posts were already at the top level. Unless they were promoted to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, they were still needed to guard the various guard posts. Therefore, General Zhaoyi was also granted an order to reward gold, silver and other items.

Jie Jing Lue and other commanders from all over the country rushed to the rescue. Because they had only caught up with the last grand event, there was no need to think about promotion. His Majesty rewarded him with gold, silver and other gifts and verbally praised him.

For example, King Rong is more miserable, because he is doing behind-the-scenes work, and he is not even on the list of praises.

Su Xinyi lit a wax for King Rong, and of course his eldest brother Su Yi.

Hey, the eldest brother has been working hard for several months and has a busy schedule, but the second brother is really an unexpected blessing.

Of course, Su Xinyi felt that her second brother deserved to be promoted to a hundred households, because His Majesty shared part of her military achievements on his head, and Qin Guansheng also took part.

Qin Guansheng's part is very subtle. Su Xinyi doesn't know what His Majesty is thinking. Giving Qin Guansheng her credit is not pushing Qin Guansheng closer to the East Palace?

But she was not sure whether there was any reason for His Majesty to test Qin Guansheng's position.

After the reward, the case of dealing with the traitor followed.

Lu Qin and other officials in Zhangping Prefecture had conclusive evidence of their crimes, and the three Yi tribes set a warning to others.

The two ministers of the Ministry of War did not get there either. They were beheaded and their families were exiled to the border. The place of exile was Zhangping Mansion.

It's really a cause and effect cycle.

His Majesty dealt with so many people one after another, and the atmosphere in the entire capital became depressed. Above the court, the important ministers faced His Majesty after being furious. At this time, you looked at me, I looked at you, and everyone was in a state of confusion. , no one dares to face the difficulties.

There was silence in the palace. His Majesty's eyes turned around and finally fell on the prince.
