Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Yan Junchu looked at Shang Junyan across from him, "What do you think, Mr. Shang?"

After hearing this, Shang Junyan spoke slowly with a bit of seriousness on his now more mature face, "Your Highness, if you go around Fengping Guard, you can't avoid Pingning Guard. Weichen remembers that the eldest daughter of the Duke of Qi married Ping Ning. Commander Ningwei, if there is something abnormal, perhaps Commander Jie will notice it."

Su Xinyi has been to Pingningwei, but not to Fengpingwei. She set off from Huaining to Pingningwei, and then from Pingningwei to Jing'an Mansion. She passed Nanshang on the way, but Fengpingwei was in Nanshang. to the northwest, so she did not pass there.

Now looking at the words "Fengpingwei" on the map, I couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

At this time, King Rong looked at Shang Junyan and asked, "Who is the commander of Fengping Guard?"

Shang Jun said: "Luming Forest."

King Rong didn't know him. He investigated the granary case and didn't go to Fengpingwei, so he looked at the prince and said, "Brother, do you know Lu Minglin?"

Yan Junchu nodded slightly, "The Lu family rarely gets involved in the partisan disputes between the DPRK and China, but the family's behavior is like grass on the wall."

"Fell with the wind?" King Rong was a little disdainful, "That's a person with no bones. How can such a person become a commander?"

"It's not that they have no bones, but they always choose the people or things that are most beneficial to the Lu family." Shang Junyan looked at King Rong and said, "As long as there are enough interests, the Lu family may not get involved. It's just that Now I am not sure whether the benefits of the granary can impress the Lu family and make them willing to provide convenience."

Su Xinyi listened to Shang Junyan's words and looked up at him. Even he couldn't be sure?

So how was the case in the granary solved in the previous life?

Yan Junchu glanced at Su Xinyi's slightly doubtful eyes, and then looked at Shang Junyan, only to see that his eyes were staring in the direction of Fengpingwei pointed by King Rong.

The two of them were talking and doing things normally, but he had a strange feeling.

Yan Junchu withdrew his gaze, looked at Shang Junyan and said, "What are Mr. Shang's plans for this trip?"

Shang Junyan looked at the prince seriously and replied respectfully: "Wei Chen plans to send the imperial envoy's carriage and horse to Nanshang Mansion. Wei Chen secretly takes people to Fengpingwei for a secret inspection first."

King Rong said: "You are trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain... No, this is called building a plank road in the dark to visit Chencang. This is a good method. Go to Fengpingwei secretly, maybe you can see something different."

At this point, King Rong felt very itchy, "If I were not waiting to get married, I would also like to go there."

Such a big case must be very exciting.

Yan Junchu looked at King Rong and said, "Be honest. When King Yi comes to Beijing, you can also help me to test things there. Now I can't be sure whether King Yi has anything to do with these things, but since Suizhou is involved, I think It is impossible for King Yi to be unaware of this."

"That's not true. In a place as small as Suizhou, a slight disturbance can spread throughout the country." King Rong immediately agreed, "I'm just curious about how the legitimate son of King Lao Yi injured his leg back then. Brother, what do you mean by now? Is it related to King Yi?"

Yan Junchu glanced at his younger brother and said, "If you want to know, go check it out yourself."

King Rong curled his lips, "Not that curious."

Going all the way to Suizhou for a little bit of gossip, King Rong didn't have that much free time.

Su Xinyi couldn't help but smile and looked up at King Rong, "You can also ask King Yi directly when he comes to the capital."

King Rong:......

Is there fool written above my head?

Yan Junchu also smiled and looked at King Rong, "Although King Xinyi has only been in the business for a few years, we don't know him very well. When people arrive in the capital, you have to proceed with caution."

But King Rong didn't care, "What are you afraid of? If he dares to show off his prestige when he arrives in the capital, then he is tired of living."

After hearing this, Shang Junyan looked up at King Rong in front of him and couldn't help but fell into deep thought again. The King Rong in front of him was completely different from the King Rong in his previous life.

In his previous life, King Rong was calm, serious, relaxed, and cautious. Now look at this one...

Shang Junyan sighed deeply in his heart. Ever since Su Xinyi met King Rong, his temperament had really let go. He was like a kite with its string cut off and could not be pulled back.

Thinking about King Rong who competed with the prince for the throne in his previous life, and then looking at him living a leisurely and carefree life now, at this moment, Shang Junyan suddenly felt that King Rong was happier like this.

Su Xinyi... Shang Junyan's tongue felt bitter.

Su Xinyi didn't sit there for long. After listening to them talking about something about Suizhou, she stood up and left. She looked at the prince and said with a smile, "Mama She is very in charge of me now. If she doesn't go back, she will come here."

Yan Junchu also smiled, "It's rare to find someone who can control you. Go back and rest. I'll go back and have dinner with you."

Su Xinyi responded with a smile, said goodbye to King Rong and Shang Junyan, and turned around to leave with his maid.

When Shang Junyan heard Su Xinyi mentioning Nanny She, he felt a little dazed for a moment. He knew that Nanny She had just been married to Su Xinyi, and it was only thanks to Nanny She that he could stand on his feet.

Of course, in his previous life, he heard from his mother that Grandma She was a slave who often tempted Su Xinyi to cause trouble, so he hated her very much. One time he told Su Xinyi to send Grandma She back to the Duke of Qi's Mansion. That was that time, Su Xinyi's first Once he contradicted him and rejected him.

It was also that time that he knew that Su Xinyi was a person with a temper.

Seeing that she didn't want to leave Nanny She, he didn't force her. He just met Nanny She in private and warned her to act responsibly in the prince's palace.

Now when I think back to what I did before, I feel my face hurts so much.

Precisely because Aunt She tried her best to protect Su Xinyi in her previous life, even though Su Xinyi has returned to her original nature in this life, she is still willing to be controlled by Aunt She and listen to her words.

Because she knew that Grandma She was sincerely doing her best and would not harm her, so she was willing to rely on her and believe in her.

Once upon a time, she also looked forward to relying on him and trusting him...

Shang Junyan came out of the East Palace. He had not thought about what happened in his previous life for a long time. He had always been a pragmatic person, but today he was rarely uneasy.

Shang Junyan did not take the carriage back home, but walked slowly along the street by himself.

Those memories that he had ignored are slowly coming back to life. Now Su Xinyi is vivid, bright, happy, and high-spirited. Without asking her, just by looking at her, he knows that she is doing well now.

He remembered that when Su Xinyi walked over, His Highness the Crown Prince stood up to pick her up. It was so natural and he didn't think it was shameful to pick up the Crown Princess with the dignity of a prince.

He still remembered that after Su Xinyi sat down, His Royal Highness picked up the teapot and poured tea for her, and then gently placed the teacup next to Su Xinyi's hand.

When Su Xinyi spoke, His Highness the Crown Prince would look at her seriously and gaze into her eyes.

And he had been married to her for many years, and there was not a single thing he had done.

In other words, in his life beliefs, he would not do such a thing for his wife or any woman.

His parents wouldn't get along like this, nor would many couples he'd seen get along like this.

But looking at the way the prince and Su Xinyi got along, Shang Junyan could understand why Su Xinyi was living so well.

He slowly retracted his thoughts and raised his head, only to find that he was already outside the house.

He braced himself and stepped up the steps. When the concierge saw him, he rushed forward to greet him.

Shang Junyan nodded slightly and walked in. He mostly lives in Yamen now. He doesn't like to come back. Every time he comes back, his mother will urge him to get married. Sometimes he meets his sister and comes back. The mother and daughter make him feel a little suffocated. .

"Your Majesty."

Shang Junyan looked at his personal entourage, "What's the matter?"

"The eldest lady has returned with her cousin and young master. They have been staying for a few days." The attendant said cautiously.

Shang Junyan frowned. He shouldn't be back today. He turned around and wanted to go out. Unexpectedly, he only took two steps when he heard the eldest sister's voice, "Jun Yan, what are you doing? You just got home and you have to leave again." , don’t you want to see my sister?”

Shang Junyan sighed silently and turned to look at the eldest sister, "Eldest sister, I just suddenly remembered that I still have official business to deal with."

Hearing this, Shang Yuqing said: "Then you have to rest too. I heard that it's rare for you to go home now. Now that you're back, go and see your mother. She misses you very much."

Shang Junyan had no choice but to pick up his feet and walk to the backyard. As he walked, he listened to his sister say: "You said that you are not young now, and you think that someone as old as you is not getting married. What on earth do you think? Are you just dragging it out like this? , you won’t be alone for the rest of your life, right?”

Shang Junyan didn't say anything. He knew he didn't need to speak.

Sure enough, Shang Yuqing went on to say, "Your brother-in-law made me angry when I came back this time. As a younger brother, you have to support me."

Shang Junyan then answered, "Isn't my brother-in-law always a good person?"

"What's good?" Shang Yuqing almost exploded, "You don't know about his concubinage. Now that Hu Meizi has given birth to a bastard, your brother-in-law treats him like a baby. I tell you that this matter cannot be settled like this. ”

Shang Junyan turned his head and looked at his sister, "Sister, didn't you tell me which man doesn't have a concubine? Isn't it normal to have a concubine and a concubine?"

Shang Yuqing stopped and looked at his brother in disbelief, "What did you say?"

Shang Junyan was already feeling uneasy today. If his mother and sister hadn't instigated him in his previous life, he and Su Xinyi would not have drifted apart.

He was indeed nothing. His heart was not at home, and he did not notice Su Xinyi's grievances. He believed in his mother and sister too much, but he did not know that his mother and sister were planning to marry Yan Qiongsi.

At first, he was really disgusted that Su Xinyi used the trick of falling into the water to trick him into marrying her, but everyone married her, and later he planned to live a good life with her.

But...it was his mother and sister who instigated discord time and time again, and it was him who believed them without any brains, so in the end it was such a tragic ending.

What did his mother and sister say when they wanted to suppress Su Xinyi by giving him a concubine?

Which family has a man who doesn't have many concubines and concubines?

Why can't I bear it now that it's happened to me?

It turns out that if the knife doesn't fall on you, you really won't feel the pain.

Shang Junyan already knew that it hurt, but he also knew that it was too late to do anything. However, he really couldn't tell himself to ignore his eldest sister and mother's current attempts to control his behavior.

Shang Yuqing couldn't remember whether he had said such a thing. Seeing his brother's serious expression, he became suspicious for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "How can this be the same? I am your biological sister."

"So what? Aren't we all wives? Since my sister can agree with other people's wives to accept concubines and concubines, doesn't she have to set an example?" Shang Junyan said while suppressing his anger.

When the two siblings said this, they arrived at the yard of the Princess of Pingjing County. Shang Yuqing's face turned dark with anger and rushed into the house like the wind, "Mom, listen to what your son said. I'm so angry that I can't live anymore. My brothers are trying to persuade me to let my husband take concubines and raise concubine children. What do you think of me as a sister?"

Hearing this, the Princess of Pingjing County didn't care about this. Instead, she asked: "Your brother is back? Where is he?"

Shang Yuqing:......

Shang Junyan entered the door at this time and bowed when he saw his mother, "My son has seen his mother."

The princess of Pingjing County had not seen her son for half a month. Now she could not help but look carefully at the person she saw, feeling angry and resentful in her heart. However, she did not dare to interfere with her son's marriage too forcefully, so she could only say with a smile: "First of all, Sit down and take a rest, your sister is so short-tempered, you two siblings can't talk to each other if you have anything to say."

Shang Yuqing was furious, "How can you say this? I have never seen a brother-in-law willing his brother-in-law to take a concubine. Isn't this stepping on my face?"

Shang Junyan looked very calm. Looking at his lust-crazed sister, he suddenly remembered that in his previous life they forced him to take concubines and suppress Su Xinyi. Didn't he think that Su Xinyi would be sad?

They treated Su Xinyi as a tool, but they never thought about whether she was pitiable?

To what extent do you have to push someone so that she will be willing to die with them later?

Thinking of this, Shang Junyan knew that if he could not get his sister to change her behavior, her ending in this life would be no better than in her previous life.

"Mom, have you ever asked my brother-in-law what's going on? You can't listen to your sister's side of the story on this matter, unless your sister doesn't want to live with her brother-in-law."

"What?" Princess Pingjing looked at her son in shock, "What do you mean?"

Shang Junyan felt that he was very calm at this moment, so calm that it was even unreasonable. He said slowly: "As my mother and sister once said to me before, which young master does not have concubines and children, and the brother-in-law takes concubines and gives birth to them?" Isn't it normal for common children to do this? Or is it normal for this kind of thing to happen to others, but you can't tolerate it if it happens to you?"

The princess of Pingjing County felt that her son was now so cold and heart-wrenching, she said angrily: "This is your biological sister, how can she be the same as others?"

"Isn't someone else the apple of one's parents' eyes?" Shang Junyan asked again.

Princess Pingjing's face turned dark with anger, "What are you talking about?"

"Does my brother-in-law pamper his concubines and destroy his wives? Does he put his concubine's son above his legitimate son?" Shang Junyan asked, staring at his sister with his eyes.

Shang Yuqing murmured for a long time, of course not.

Shang Junyan understood when he saw his sister's expression, and then said: "Without the above two points, why does my sister ask me to seek justice from my brother-in-law?"

Shang Yuqing's heart was beating with anger, and the hand pointing at his brother was trembling, and his face was blue, "Do you still want him to live happily and happily, and have to step on the faces of us, mother and son, to be happy?"

"As far as I know, my brother-in-law's concubine was a gift from the top. He came from a humble background and only relied on Israel to serve people. How can he compare with my sister? As long as the concubine's appearance will grow old in a few years, what does my sister have to fear? ?”

"I just don't want to bear it!"

"Then why did my sister tell my mother earlier that after I marry a wife first and then take in a few concubines, it turns out that in my sister's eyes, my future wife is a tolerant person? You can arrange it however you want."

Shang Yuqing's face turned pale slightly, "I just said it casually, how could you take it seriously?"

"Unintentional words are what is in my heart." Shang Junyan stood up, "I am very happy at this time. Fortunately, I have not married a wife. If I really married a wife and entered the house, I would not be able to live my life with you here. alright."

Shang Yuqing shuddered and turned to look at his mother, "Mom, please say something."

Princess Pingjing County looked at her son's serious expression and suddenly became a little scared. Her son was determined not to marry. Is it because of this?

Think about it again. My daughter used to talk without any scruples at home. I don’t know how many times she talked about the rights and wrongs of the back house. Did her son listen to her?

"Shut up!" Princess Pingjing looked at her daughter and said angrily, "Your brother is right, she is just a bitch. You go back to your husband's house today and live a good life with your son-in-law."

"Mother!" Shang Yuqing quit, "Are you trying to drive me away? Are you trying to force us, mother and son, to death? Mother, you are so cruel."

Shang Junyan suddenly felt unmotivated. Looking at his sister's ugly appearance, and then thinking about how she maintained the image of a good sister in front of him in her previous life, did all her ugly side go to Su Xinyi?

So, Su Xinyi hates her and this family so much that she would rather retreat than take a step back?

Watching her son leave, the princess of Pingjing County hurriedly called out, "Jun Yan, mother has already thought about it and will not force you to marry Princess Runyi. It's just that you are not young anymore, so you should think about getting married." Regarding the matter, if you like a girl from a certain family, tell your mother, will it be possible for her to come and ask for her hand in marriage?"

You can't really waste your money by not marrying forever.

Shang Junyan had no intention of marrying a wife. He only said: "I have been appointed as an imperial envoy and will go south to investigate the case soon. Let's talk about the marriage later."

Hearing that her son did not reject him at all, Princess Pingjing relaxed and thought that she could look at him first.

The Princess of Pingjing County, who was immersed in her own thoughts, did not notice the indifferent look in her son's eyes. Her mind was filled with which lady was worthy of her son.

Shang Junyan left the house again and returned to his small house outside the office. Although he mostly lived in the government office, occasionally he didn't want to be face to face with his colleagues all the time, so he would go back to his small house at that time.

When I walked to the house, I saw a familiar figure standing outside the door.
