Once the Crown Prince Joins In

How could Su Xinyi not know this truth? She was somewhat prepared in her heart. She looked at Zhang Jian and said: "Even if the Empress wants to help me break the situation regarding the Six Shang Bureau, in the final analysis, the last one in the Six Shang Bureau cannot be defeated. Now the Six Shang Bureau The stewards are colluding with each other, and if they are allowed to continue to be so arrogant, the courage will eventually fall on His Highness."

If His Majesty does not deal with it while he is in office, the matter of the Crown Prince's accession to the throne will not go away in the future.

If the prince had taken over the Six Shang Bureau with great force when he first came to the throne, it would inevitably leave the impression that he was too ruthless and did not care about the decades of hard work of his veterans, which would inevitably leave people with a chilling feeling.

Now that Su Xinyi has thought of this, he will certainly not cause trouble to His Highness.

Zhang Jian was stunned for a moment, and then he figured out what the Crown Princess meant. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect the Crown Princess to think so far and thoughtfully.

If you think about it this way, although there are advantages and disadvantages to this matter, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Zhang Jian immediately agreed, turned around and immediately asked people to check Shi Qing, not only Shi Qing but also Wu Yi.

The Six Shang Bureaus are closely connected, and only by breaking a hole can the situation be broken.

Su Xinyi handed the matter over to Zhang Jian for investigation. She was also busy with accounting matters, and occasionally had to help with the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. In addition, she was also worried about the dead soldiers and caravans, one after another. One after another, the hoods were thrown at her, and even though she thought she was capable, she was still spinning.

The prince is busier than Su Xinyi. In addition to these things, there are also matters in the court that have to be shared by His Majesty. Now that His Majesty's authority in the court is partly assigned to the prince, many of the six ministries have to look to the prince to make decisions. The husband and wife wish they could have hot wheels under their feet.

Concubine Ruan Ming sent a message to Su Xinyi. Prince Wu's Mansion needed simple repairs. It was not complicated. Su Xinyi immediately reported it to the Empress, who then gave an order to the Ministry of Works.

In addition to repairing the mansion, some things were also added to the palace. Concubine Ruan Ming and her son are very cautious people, so the expenses required are not much, so there is no need to alarm His Majesty, the Queen Mother will take care of it.

Because Concubine Ruan Ming and King Wu knew each other, the queen took the time to go to Prince Wu's mansion in person, and even took Concubine Ruan Ming with her.

When the emperor found out, he just smiled and did not stop her. He just felt that the queen was acting like Su Xinyi now.

The queen in the past would never do anything beyond the realm of thunder, but now she took Concubine Ruan Ming out of the palace to Prince Wu's Mansion with great fanfare.

The emperor put down the pen in his hand, took a deep breath, then looked at Hu Siyi and asked, "Did the prince tell you how the investigation on the hunting ground went?"

Hu Siyi immediately took a step forward and bent down and replied: "In reply to His Majesty, last time His Majesty said that he had sent people south. He said that he had received news and had clues pointing to Suizhou, but it was not certain yet. It might have been a feint, but it was necessary. I went over to check, but no news has come back yet.”

The emperor frowned slightly when he heard the word Suizhou, "Suizhou? Isn't King Yi in Suizhou?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Hu Siyi said immediately.

The emperor's eyebrows tightened, "Which son of King Lao Yi will inherit the title?"

The emperor couldn't think of it for a while, so he looked at Hu Siyi and asked.

"In reply to Your Majesty, the eldest son of King Lao Yi will inherit the title of king. The eldest son is too bad to inherit the title of king." Hu Siyi immediately replied.

The emperor remembered what Hu Siyi said and nodded slightly, "We will wait until there is news."

"Yes." Hu Siyi hurriedly responded. Seeing that His Majesty showed no interest in the affairs of Prince Yi's Mansion, he did not say anything else.

Your Majesty will not ask why the legitimate son of King Lao Yi is lame now, so he will naturally not talk much.

Speaking of which, King Yi went to Suizhou because his relationship with His Majesty was not very harmonious, and he felt a bit like being exiled by His Majesty. After all, Suizhou was not a wealthy place.

Hu Siyi only dared to think about these words to himself and did not dare to say a word.

The Zichen Palace suddenly became quiet. The emperor picked up the zhezi but his eyes were in a trance. King Lao Yi's face suddenly appeared in his mind. After a while, the emperor dropped the zhezi and walked out.

Hu Siyi took a look and hurriedly followed him. He was worried. His Majesty was in a bad mood, so he was naturally cautious to avoid harming Chi Yu.

The atmosphere inside and outside had been a bit depressing for several days in a row. Su Xinyi noticed that something was not right, but she could not care about it for the moment. Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, she had been accompanying the queen to decorate the main hall for two consecutive days. Only then did she realize that the palace banquets she had attended before even had to pay attention to the decoration of the main hall.

While busy, I received a letter again. This time, the two cousins ​​sent the letter back together with Pang Lan's and others' letters. They used the inn and the speed was very fast.

The letter was brought back by the prince when he returned to the East Palace in the evening. His Highness had already opened the letter from Pang Lan to the prince, but the letter from Su and Den was still intact.

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness and said with a smile: "It's okay for Your Highness to just take a look first."

Yan Junchu handed the letter to Xin Yi and said, "This is your letter. Even I cannot be rude without your permission. Open it quickly and read it. I know you have been waiting for a long time."

Su Xinyi was so happy that he opened it in front of His Highness. After reading a few lines, his expression became serious. After reading, he handed the letter to His Highness.

The prince gave Pang Lan's letter to Xin Yi and motioned for her to read it.

The two exchanged letters. Su Xinyi saw that Pang Lan's letter was almost the same as what Su Deng had written. After reading it, he looked at His Highness and said, "They suspect that the news about the caravan has been leaked. This is a bit puzzling. The people in the caravan are all from the capital, and they have little contact with the Yulin Guards, so it is not easy to bribe them."

Yan Junchu said: "They may not be from the caravan."

"What do you mean, Your Highness?"

"The caravan is resting outside Yulin Guard. It is inevitable that they will interact with Yulin Guard during the rest days."

Su Xinyi nodded slightly, "Your Highness wants to check Yulin Guard?"

"It takes a lot of effort and can easily alert others. I will write to Xie Guan and ask him to investigate this matter."

Recalling that Xie Guan was always meticulous in his work, Su Xinyi thought it was feasible.

"When can the caravan return to Beijing? Your Highness." Su Xinyi looked at the prince and asked.

"If it's quick, I'll be back before the festival. If it's slower, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until after the Mid-Autumn Festival." Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi and said, "I didn't write it very carefully in the letter, but someone in the caravan was injured, so we shouldn't go too fast. On our way."

Su Xinyi sighed softly. The two cousins ​​did not say whether they were injured or not. They could only wait until they came to the capital.

This time someone was there to help him, so at least the journey wouldn't be too hard.

There was news about the caravan for the time being, so Su Xinyi put aside her worries for the time being. The matter in Suizhou was far away, and there would definitely be no news for a while.

Right now there is only the wedding of King Wu and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet follows the usual practice of inviting the court ladies and royal dignitaries into the palace to celebrate. This time, the natal families of several princesses-to-be have received invitations. Although in previous years, there would be invitations from the natal ladies even if they were not the princess's natal family, but as royal in-laws, Different.

Su Xinyi had just returned from Yuanhui Palace. She sat down to drink some water and then walked in. "Princess, today Mrs. You from the Luzhou Tea and Horse House came to the East Palace with a greeting card."

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, and then she thought that she was You Xiangzhe's mother and the prince's aunt. She reached out to take the greeting card, opened it and took a look at it, and then smiled, "Of course I listen to your highness about this kind of thing. Mother, please send me the message." What else can anyone say?"

"The others didn't say much. They just said that the You family is far away from home, and Mrs. You, the aunt, couldn't take good care of His Highness. She felt very ashamed." Grandma She said solemnly.

Su Xinyi:......

Looking at the expression on the Crown Princess's face, Grandma She curled her lips and said, "Princess, I think this Madam You may be more powerful than Madam Wu Anhou. If His Highness sees her, you should be careful."

Su Xinyi nodded slightly, "I don't believe that Mrs. You knew anything about what the Marquis Wu'an Mansion has done over the years. Moreover, You Xiangzhi has been in the Marquis Wu'an Mansion since arriving in Beijing and has no intention of coming to the East Palace to visit. If Madam You really I still have some friendship with His Highness. How can my daughter not pay a proper visit to her cousin when she comes to Beijing? In the final analysis, the conspiracy with the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion makes her shameless to do so. Now it's time to act like a kind elder."

Su Xinyi felt unhappy even as he spoke, and his face darkened even more.

"Princess, this is why you have to be careful. If someone like Mrs. You is so willing to take risks, I'm afraid she won't be easy to get rid of." Grandma She said worriedly.

Who are you most afraid of in this world?

They are shameless people who think they are morally perfect.

When the prince came back in the evening, Su Xinyi handed him Mrs. You's greeting card.

Yan Junchu took it and looked at it, then looked at Xin Yi, "What do you think?"

Su Xinyi smiled and said, "Mrs. You is here to see His Highness. I, the Crown Princess, am just accompanying you. I will naturally listen to Your Highness."

Yan Junchu was amused, and after a while he said: "I am very busy with government affairs these days, and I really have no time to meet with my aunt, so I have to ask the Crown Princess to come forward to entertain me."

Su Xinyi understood. The prince didn't want to give Mrs. You face and didn't even want to see her.

"Since Your Highness said this, I would rather obey your orders than respect you. I am willing to share your worries for Your Highness."

Yan Junchu:......

He sighed helplessly, pulled her into his arms, looked down at her, "Who made you angry?"

Su Xinyi reached out and poked His Highness's arm, and said slowly, "I just can't stand that some people have nothing to do but Xia Yingchun. When I made the plan with Madam Wu Anhou, I didn't think about the situation of your great nephew. , now I still have the nerve to act like an aunt, I can’t hold my breath just thinking about it.”

Yan Junchu used to be sad that his mother-in-law was only interested in profit, but he had already passed the age when he needed people to care about him all the time. Besides, his father was very kind to him. He didn't lack much in terms of family affection, but Now listening to Xin Yi's straightforward dissatisfaction, I still feel warm in my heart.

"It's all over. Now they are just familiar strangers to me. Moreover, my aunt and I haven't seen each other for many years, and we haven't heard much from each other. It's a bit luxurious to talk about family ties."

Listening to the prince's words, Su Xinyi asked with some surprise: "Didn't Mrs. You write a letter to His Highness?"

Dear aunt, you’re not willing to give up even a few letters, are you?

"When she went to Luzhou with You Jian to take office, she wrote a letter back, but it was just to ask me to speak kindly in front of my father, and to give You Jian a better official position."

Su Xinyi's face turned even more ugly. There was only one letter, and it was asking for an official. Although His Highness said he didn't care now, he could still remember it clearly, which just showed that His Highness was hurt by this letter.

"Your Highness, don't be sad. No matter where I go from now on, I will write letters home to Your Highness." Su Xinyi said immediately.

Yan Junchu chuckled, hugged him tightly, and then said: "Okay."

Now, he also has someone who can write him letters home.

The next day, Su Xinyi sent someone to the Marquis Wu'an Mansion to deliver a message, asking Mrs. You to come to the East Palace.

Only Mrs. You was invited, and Mrs. Wu Anhou didn't mention a word.

Not to mention how annoyed Mrs. Wu Anhou was at home, Mrs. You packed up and headed to the East Palace.

Su Xinyi asked Mrs. You to be taken to Mingfuyuan, but had no intention of inviting her to Deyang Palace.

Deyang Hall is the main hall where the Crown Princess lives. Only people who are very close to her will let Su Xinyi meet here. Mrs. You does not have this honor.

This was not the first time for Mrs. You to enter the East Palace. She had been here once before leaving the capital. She naturally knew the layout of the East Palace. She did not expect to be taken to the Mingfuyuan.

Where is the Mingfuyuan?

This is the place where the Crown Princess meets her sworn wife. She is the Crown Prince's biological aunt. Meeting her here means treating her as an outsider.

Although Mrs. You heard many things about the Crown Princess from her sister-in-law, she never expected that she could actually do this, which was to press her face to the ground.

Not to mention, her daughter is about to become Princess Xiang. Under such circumstances, the Crown Princess cannot slap her in the face like this even for the sake of His Highness.

Before seeing the Crown Princess, Mrs. You was already holding back her anger, and her face looked very ugly.

Su Xinyi wasted no time and walked in. When she raised her eyes, she saw Mrs. You sitting there.

To be able to give birth to a beauty like You Xiangzhe, there is no need to doubt Mrs. You's beauty. She is still a young lady, and the grace between her eyebrows can still be seen in her youth.

Madam You suppressed her anger and stood up, bowing with a straight face, "My wife pays homage to the Crown Princess."

Su Xinyi could tell from the look on Mrs. You's face that she was in a bad mood, but what did this have to do with her? When she and the Marquis of Wu'an worked together to do things, she never thought about His Highness the Crown Prince.

Su Xinyi waited for Mrs. You to finish the salute respectfully, and then said slowly and slowly, "Mrs. You, there is no need to be polite, please sit down."

This condescending look and tone made Madam You even more angry and almost fell backwards. However, she suppressed her anger, sat down with a straight face, and said, "Why haven't you seen His Highness? Could it be that the Crown Princess didn't inform the Crown Prince?" What happened to my wife’s visit today?”

Su Xinyi raised her eyebrows slightly, haha, this is such a big face.
