Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Yan Qiongsi looked extremely ugly after hearing her mother's words. She held the handkerchief tightly with both hands, but she knew that her mother was angry and that she would not have any good results if she tried hard at this time, so she had to remain silent to express her resistance.

Seeing her daughter like this, the Princess of Guangping County was annoyed and helpless, but she had already said what she had to do, and she still had to do what she had to do.

She no longer thinks about the queen. Now the queen will definitely be more worried about her family bringing down her and Prince Rong. What about her sisters? If such a thing happens, she will definitely take care of her own children first.

It is all a lie to say that he regards Jones as his own child.

The more angry the Princess of Guangping County became, the more she thought about choosing a good marriage for her daughter, so that she could silence others and save the face of the Prince of Guangping County.

But things are never that simple. Yan Qiongsi has been chasing Shang Junyan in the past few years, causing quite a stir several times. No family in the capital with some background would marry such a person.

When the princess of Guangping County encountered obstacles at every turn, Shang Junyan had already led the team south. A few days before King Jing's wedding, King Yi and his wife finally arrived in the capital.

When Su Xinyi got the news, King Yi and his wife had already met in the palace. While she was washing and changing clothes, she asked, "You just arrived this morning?"

"Yes." Grandma She nodded, "Zhan Qiao came back and said he would enter the city as soon as the city gate opened. He said he had been waiting outside the city for a long time."

Su Xinyi looked thoughtful when he heard this, took the handkerchief and wiped his hands. The time chosen was a bit interesting. If it happened to be this time, it would be fine, but if it was deliberate, it would be a bit unexpected.

Su Xinyi couldn't guess which one it was for the moment, so she ate her breakfast slowly. Anyway, she was raising her baby in the East Palace now. Even if King Yi and his wife entered the palace, she didn't have to rush over to see anyone.

After thinking about it, Su Xinyi went to the study again, took out the map and considered it carefully. His eyes kept turning around Fengpingwei, and his fingertips landed on Huiqi Mansion. One was Huiqi, which just blocked the south. Among the Shang Mansion and Yuning Mansion, one is Pingning Guard, right under your nose is Fengping Guard, and further south is Suizhou, which is like two nails hammered in there.

Su Xinyi also thought that her sister-in-law's father was so capable, but he never moved from the position of Huiqi Prefecture. Thinking about it carefully, it was a bit unreasonable, but it was not that there were no such things in Southern Qi, but they were in remote places.

The location of Huiqi Prefecture is rich in materials and fertile land, but the position of the prefect is fertile.

The Pingning Guard went north to restrain the Fengping Guard, went south to keep an eye on Suizhou, and to the west was Huaining. If...if King Yi really had a problem, if it were him, then these two nails must be eliminated. of.

Thinking of this, the fog in Su Xinyi's mind seemed to gradually dissipate.

In the previous life, the eldest brother-in-law's ex-wife died early in childbirth, and the clansmen competed with her for the position of commander. If he hadn't married a daughter from a strong family like Su Baiwei in this life, what would have happened to him?

He will definitely be caught in the whirlpool of competing with his clansmen for the command position and have no time to worry about it.

As for the Su family in Huaining, although she didn't know the situation in her hometown in Huaining in her previous life, she knew that their family in the capital was almost falling apart. Moreover, in her previous life, the sister-in-law was not liked by her mother-in-law in the Duke's mansion. Her husband had lost his future, and the couple's relationship was The relationship is not as close as it was in this life. If the couple separates, will Mr. Zeng from Huiqi still help the Duke of Qi?

Hard to say.

Su Xinyi never understood why things happened one after another to the Su family in the previous life. What if there was really a black hand behind it?

Thinking of the missing Xu Yurong and the somewhat strange Fu Yun, Su Xinyi suddenly felt a little creepy.

In my previous life, there were so many things that happened after I fell into the water, because there were many disputes in the Duke's palace, and the family was in trouble. Naturally, I didn't need much external force, just a gentle push after something happened.

But in this life, I have changed my attitude towards getting along with my family, tried my best to integrate, and tried my best to do what I want to do. On the contrary, my family has become more and more united, and nothing like what happened in my previous life has happened, so I need others to use a lot of external force to target Duke Qi. Mansion.

If my guess is right...

Su Xinyi's expression changed again and again, so...she looked down at the position of Huaining. The Su family's dominance in Huaining must have touched the interests of some people, so they were targeted and eliminated.

Su Xinyi's heart was pounding, but she couldn't explain these things to His Highness. Should I tell His Highness that I was reborn?

Not to mention how unbelievable the matter was, if she really said it, there would be a reborn Shang Junyan. Although there was a grudge between the two, they were settled, and they couldn't hurt him anymore.

Therefore, she could only hold on tightly to what happened in her previous life and could not say a word.

If this is the case, how should I tell His Highness these things?

Su Xinyi was worried because she had never thought that there would be a black hand behind everything in her whole life.

King Yi...

King Yi!

Su Xinyi lowered his head and looked at his belly. Maybe this baby really didn't come at the right time.

Su Xinyi put the map away and suppressed her emotions. She walked outside the palace and walked slowly along the corridor. She looked at the delphinium and forsythia who were catching up and waved them back. She needed to be quiet.

Unknowingly, she walked to the small garden again and reached the stone pavilion from the last time. She walked in and sat down where she sat last time, staring into the distance.

If my guess is correct, then I can't be sure whether the mastermind behind this is King Yi, but it must have touched the interests of others.

If this other person is not King Yi, who could he be?

The largest official in Yuning, Cangnan, and Zongping prefectures is the prefect. A prefect in one prefecture would not have such great ability to connect so many places to collude.

I don't have the guts either.

If not the prefect, who would it be?

A governor?

No, if it is the governor of one party, the military and political affairs are separated, mutual supervision is carried out, and such a big move is definitely noticed by the other party, and things will not go so smoothly.

Only people who are ignored by others, who are always considered harmless by others, and who have a certain status can do such a thing.

So, like a circle was drawn, things appeared at the starting point again.

Still pointing to King Yi of Suizhou.

So, is it the current King Yi or the old King Yi?

What about the legitimate son of King Yi who injured his leg and became lame?

Su Xinyi was confused and tried to calm down.

If the grain in the granary really used the Fengpingwei Road to leave the customs, was it sent to Tubo, or was it transported to other places using the Tubo Road?

The more Su Xinyi thought about it, the more confused her mind became, and the more she thought about it, the uglier her face became.

How could she be so stupid and not think about these things after being back for so long?

On second thought, she excused herself, what could she know?

In my previous life, when I grew up in the countryside, I had to hunt and go into the mountains to survive. Later, when I returned to Beijing, I wanted to become a lady in the capital. I spent all my time reading and learning all kinds of knowledge.

In her previous life, her vision was not only in the mountains, but also in the back house, so how could she understand these things about the government and the public.

That is to say, in this life, she has gained the knowledge that she studied hard in her previous life, coupled with the drive to refuse to admit defeat in this life, she has had more contact with His Highness the Crown Prince and King Rong, and after getting married, His Highness the Crown Prince taught her about things in the court. This ability Integrate everything.

Otherwise, if you want to learn these strategic things on your own, it will not be so fast without someone to teach you.

Su Xinyi covered her face.

When things got to this point, she had to think of a way to test Princess Yi, so it was a good thing for her that King Yi and his wife came to the capital this time.

After regrouping, Su Xinyi cheered herself up. Don't be anxious or afraid. Maybe she got it wrong, but what if she guessed it right?

Now that she can guess this, she has more time to make preventive plans.

She is no longer the same person she was in her previous life. She can now protect herself and her family. Moreover, the family in this life is more progressive, more diligent, and more united than in the previous life.

Yes, this is her greatest confidence.

"Why are you here alone?"

Su Xinyi was stunned when she heard the prince's voice. Then she turned around and saw His Highness striding into the stone pavilion. Then he frowned and looked at her, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Why does your face look so ugly?"

Su Xinyi touched her face and said hurriedly: "No, I'm just thinking about something. I'm fine, don't worry."

Yan Junchu looked carefully and felt that something was not right about what he was thinking today, but when she said this, he did not ask further questions and simply asked: "What are you thinking about?"

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness, "I heard that King Yi and his wife have arrived. Shouldn't Your Highness be in the palace at this moment?"

Yan Junchu held Xin Yi's hand. There were calluses on her palms and fingertips, which were marks left by her early life. He also had calluses on his fingertips, but they were much better than Xin Yi's, with only a thin layer. It's not like she's that thick.

Su Xinyi looked down at her hands, and then clenched His Highness's fingers.

Yan Junchu smiled, "What are you afraid of? It's not like I've never seen him before."

Su Xinyi:......

Did she mean it?

When Yan Junchu smiled like this, Su Xinyi became less nervous and asked, "Your Highness, I have a question for you."

Yan Junchu then replied: "King Yi looks cautious and timid, and his wife is not very outstanding. She has a bit of timidity in her eyebrows. She came all the way here. After seeing her, my father sent someone to go back and rest first." , there is a family dinner tonight, you can see me then."

Su Shicheng frowned, are both the couple timid?

This has nothing to do with her speculation. If this is really the case, then it is impossible to do those things.

"Your Highness, do you really think so?" Su Xinyi asked again.

Yan Junchu looked at Xin Yi and said, "It's just the first time we've met, isn't it? We have to look back."

Also, you can't judge a person from just the first meeting.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Yan Junchu still felt that something was not right with Xin Yi.

Su Xinyi had sorted out her thoughts before, and now she looked at His Royal Highness and said, "I just got news today that my eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law are going to send the child back to the capital."

Um?

The prince frowned slightly, "Send them all back? I remember that Jinglue's youngest son hasn't been weaned yet, right?"

"The two eldest ones are here." Su Xinyi said, "Your Highness, you know quite a bit about who the eldest brother-in-law is. Unless something big happened, he would never send the child to the capital."

Yan Junchu's expression also became solemn, "The court has not received any information about Pingning Guards." After saying this, he paused and said, "Are you worried that it is related to the granary case?"

"Maybe I'm overthinking it, but we just speculated on the relationship between Fengpingwei and Pingningwei. My eldest brother-in-law is about to send the child back. I'm really worried about the situation over there. If it wasn't very dangerous, no one would I would like to send the child away first."

Yan Junchu stood up immediately and looked down at Xin Yi, "Don't worry, I will go see my father immediately."

Su Xinyi also stood up and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, this is just my guess. Wouldn't it be bad to report it directly to my father without any basis?"

"I know what to say." Yan Junchu looked at Xin Yi, "If your guess is right, then there must be something wrong with the Jinglue. Now the book has not been sent to the capital, but if we help first, maybe the outcome will not be the same. Same. If it is really related to the granary case, this would be more appropriate."

Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief when His Highness said this, "Then thank you for your hard work, Your Highness."

Yan Junchu looked at Xin Yi, "It's not just because your family is there, it's also about government affairs and official administration. Don't worry too much. If I won't pick you up for dinner, just ask Yang Jin to come."

Su Xinyi nodded and felt a little more relaxed as he watched His Highness strode away.

She didn't know how to talk about those complicated past events, but the granary case was undoubtedly an opening, and it was logical to start changing the name from here.

She went back to Deyang Palace to take a rest, to recharge herself, and to have a good meeting with King Yi and his wife in the evening.

After sleeping for nearly an hour, Forsythia came in and screamed at the right time.

Su Xinyi opened her eyes, then got up to wash and change clothes.

As expected, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince failed to come back, and Yang Jin was ordered to pick her up.

Su Xinyi chose a calm palace dress, which was neither too outstanding nor looked down upon by others. Her hair was pulled up high into a bun with a pair of golden hairpins inlaid with silk and rubies.

Looking carefully in the mirror, Su Xinyi nodded with satisfaction as her face was radiant.

Yang Jin was waiting outside Deyang Palace. When he saw the Crown Princess coming out, he immediately went to greet her, "I've seen the Crown Princess before."

"Master Yang, you don't need to be polite. Thank you for taking this trip." Su Xinyi and Yang Jin are also familiar with each other, so they don't need to be too restrained when talking.

Yang Jin immediately said: "This is what subordinates should do. Crown Princess, Your Highness asked me to tell you that I will send you to Yuanhui Palace first. The palace banquet will be held in Xianju Palace. Then you and the Queen will go together. "

Su Xinyi nodded, His Highness the Crown Prince's arrangement was very appropriate, but there was no need for Yang Jin to go.

When Su Xinyi left the East Palace, he discovered that it was not the way to Yuanhui Palace in the past, but that he turned a corner and walked through another door. Su Xinyi knew this door, but it was the first time he walked through it.

After exiting the palace gate, Yang Jin whispered: "Princess, if you go from here, you will pass by the East Alley of Zichen Palace. There is a corner gate on the other side of the East Alley where you can see people."

Su Xinyi's eyebrows jumped, and then she looked at Yang Jin. Did she see anyone?

Who is worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince specially asking Yang Jin to come and lead the way? It must have been specially arranged by His Highness when he saw that she looked bad, and he had already guessed who he was looking at.

Su Xinyi nodded slightly and looked at Yang Jin, "I didn't expect His Highness to arrange it like this. No wonder I asked Mr. Yang to come."

Yang Jin laughed and said, "Princess, if you have any other instructions, you can tell me and I will make arrangements."

"Not yet, but His Highness said that King Yi seems to be a very timid and honest man. I am a little curious. It is really strange that someone who has become a prince can be so timid." Su Xinyi looked at it. Yang Jin smiled and explained.

After hearing what the Crown Princess said, Yang Jin replied, "I heard that when the old King Yi was still alive, the current King Yi was a concubine and was not taken seriously in the palace. It is said that King Yi and his biological mother had been together for a long time. I have suffered a lot in recent years, and whether it is true or not has not yet been confirmed.”

Su Xinyi looked at Yang Jin and asked curiously: "Does King Lao Yi only have two sons?"

The legitimate son's leg is disabled, so the current King Yi can only take over?

Yang Jin shook his head, "I heard that there seemed to be more than one, but these are the only two who survived."

Su Xinyi raised his eyebrows, this was really cruel news.

"A person who can live until the end and become King Yi doesn't look like a timid person." Su Xinyi said.

Hearing this, Yang Jin said: "This subordinate is not very clear, but I heard that the leg of King Lao Yi's legitimate son was injured in the hands of another concubine. King Lao Yi was still alive at that time. When he found out, he directly killed the concubine and his leg. The biological mother was kicked out of the house. Who would have thought that every month, the bastard and his biological mother would die unexpectedly."

"It seems that the water in Prince Yi's Mansion is also a bit deep."

"What the Crown Princess said is that because of the fierceness of the fight, the person who was the most timid and did not dare to get involved ended up getting a huge advantage. His legitimate son became a cripple, and all his concubines died except for him. Who could inherit the title? There is only one person with sound limbs."

It sounds okay, but when you think about it carefully, it feels weird.

After saying this, we quickly arrived at the corner gate Yang Jin was talking about. This place had obviously been arranged before, and we didn't meet anyone along the way.

Yang Jin stepped forward and gently pushed the corner door open a crack, then stepped aside and said to the Crown Princess: "If you look over here, you can see the people waiting in front of the Zichen Palace. Crown Princess, subordinate I took a quick glance and saw that King Yi was talking to someone in front of the Zichen Palace."

Su Xinyi took a step forward and looked through the palm-wide gap. On the jade platform, there were indeed many people standing in front of the Zichen Hall. Su Xinyi knew most of them. Among them was one of medium height, slightly fat, and slightly The hunched-over man, wearing the python robe worn by the prince, was facing her sideways, and his face could not be seen clearly. However, as a prince, he bent slightly when talking to others. He obviously kept his posture very low, although he could not see clearly. With a straight face, you can see the corners of his lips raised when looking from the side, and he looks like he is smiling.

The silhouette really gave people a sense of humility. No wonder His Highness said that this person was a timid and honest person on the surface. She really gave him such a feeling when she looked at him like this.

"Princess, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. After seeing it, I will send you to Yuanhui Palace." Yang Jin reminded from the side.

Su Xinyi was about to respond when she suddenly looked at King Yi and turned his head towards her. She immediately turned sideways and hid her figure by the door.

When she looked at people, she deliberately used her peripheral vision instead of her direct eyes. This King Yi had such keen senses.
