Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Su Xinyi had long been used to King Rong's harsh words, so he didn't care about her. She looked at Zhu Chanyi and said with a smile, "I originally wanted to invite you to the East Palace to sit, but I've been a little busy recently so I didn't bother. How can you still be in the palace?" Habit? If seventh brother bullies you, just tell me."

King Rong:......

"How can I not be nice to my own wife? Su...sister-in-law, you should worry less and take more care of yourself."

Zhu Chanyi's face turned a little red when she heard this. It said that King Rong treated her well, and there were no messy people around her. Before, there was only one girl who had a common room with her, so the Empress wanted to send her away.

However, although she was also the daughter of a military commander, she was not as happy as Xin Yi in doing things. She had more to worry about, so she kept her roommate after seeing that he was an honest person.

However, the man she married didn't care about these things at all. She wanted to talk to him, but he was impatient, so she thought it was funny.

Her mother was worried that King Rong had a bad temper and was afraid that she would be wronged when she married. Her mother-in-law was the queen of the dynasty, so it was hard to swallow. She never thought that her life would be so easy.

Su Xinyi accidentally saw Zhu Chanyi's slightly red face and couldn't help but smile. It seemed that they were getting along well as a couple, which was good.

Several people entered Yuanhui Palace chatting and arguing. Aunt Zhao personally welcomed them out and greeted them with a smile.

After a few people went in, the queen was drinking tea at the table. Watching them come in, she said, "We are all here now. Let's sit down and talk."

Several people saw the ceremony and then sat down one after another.

The queen looked at Su Xinyi's complexion. Seeing that her face was rosy and her eyes were lively, she said, "The complexion is very good. The people in the East Palace have served them well. I will reward them later."

Su Xinyi was happy when she heard this, "Since I'm rewarding them, my daughter-in-law won't be polite. You have to be generous."

The queen said happily: "That's natural. The prince is away on business, so I naturally have to take good care of you and the child in your belly. Speaking of which, His Majesty came here yesterday and asked about you. I will feel relieved knowing that you are well."

Su Xinyi was a little surprised. She didn't expect that His Majesty would still care about her situation, so she hurriedly stood up and saluted in the direction of Zichen Palace, and then said: "Father, even in his busy schedule, is still thinking about my pregnancy. It is the birth of my daughter-in-law and His Highness." Blessing.”

The Queen nodded with satisfaction, "As long as you know, take care of yourself, then Your Majesty and I will feel at ease."

The Queen and Su Xinyi were chatting about daily life, but Zhu Chanyi did not interrupt. She was surprised that the Queen and the Crown Princess were getting along so harmoniously in private. This was very different from what they suspected outside. Looking at her prince, he was not very He looked concerned, obviously he was used to this situation.

Zhu Chanyi thought thoughtfully and then smiled. With her temperament, she could have sex with the princess, so what else is impossible?

After talking to Su Xinyi, the queen looked at Zhu Chanyi and asked, "Are you still used to living in the palace?"

Zhu Chanyi said: "My daughter-in-law thinks it's good that my mother cares about her."

The queen smiled and said, "The palace is your own place. If you find it uncomfortable to live in, please change it. If Prince Rong is not happy, come and tell me and I will make the decision for you."

King Rong was not happy, "Mother, I haven't done anything, why am I still doing something wrong?"

The queen glanced at her stupid son, but didn't understand the meaning of her words. She was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she continued to Zhu Chanyi: "Prince Rong has a lazy temper. In daily life, you should urge him to make progress." The palace You should also pay more attention to the big and small matters. If you encounter something that cannot be decided, just discuss it. If you are still not sure, come and ask me."

Zhu Chanyi hurriedly stood up and agreed, feeling quite shocked. She had come to greet the queen a few times before, and the queen was very kind to her, but she never said these words. Today, the princess is here, and she suddenly talks about these things. This makes me feel a little uneasy.

Are you talking about it for the Crown Princess?

Just as I was thinking this, I heard the Crown Princess smile and say: "Seventh younger brother and sister, you can rest assured that your mother will support you."

Zhu Chanyi glanced at the Crown Princess and saw her winking slightly at her, so she nodded and smiled at the Queen: "Daughter-in-law, thank you, Queen Mother. It's just that the prince has rules for doing things, and my daughter-in-law really can't help with external matters." I'm busy. The prince has told me to take care of the affairs of the inner palace. I'm currently trying to learn how to take care of the palace. If I really encounter something difficult, I'll shamelessly ask my mother for advice."

The queen listened to her daughter-in-law saying good things to her son. How could she not count the children she had given birth to?

However, Zhu Chanyi gave Wang Rong face like this, and the queen was happy. She was worthy of being her favorite daughter-in-law.

"If you have something to do, you and your wife can discuss it. If you are not sure, just go to the palace." The queen made the decision with a wave of her hand. She found her daughter-in-law well, and the queen had no intention of intervening in the affairs of the palace.

After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Su Xinyi again, "Princess Wu is sick, did you know?"

Um?

Su Xinyi put down the tea cup in her hand and looked at the queen in surprise, "Sick? Wasn't she fine before?"

So fast?

Su Xinyi was shocked.

The queen obviously didn't know what was going on here. There was no one else here, not even her son and daughter-in-law. The queen didn't think about avoiding the taboo, so she said directly to Su Xinyi: "I feel a little surprised, even if Princess Wu attended Princess Yi's wedding before, At the banquet, you won’t get sick if you are ordered by Ruan Mingfei.”

Listening to the probing meaning in the queen's words, Su Xinyi knew that the queen was suspicious, but she didn't know much about the outside world, so she didn't know what happened and could only ask Su Xinyi.

Su Xinyi glanced at Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao made a deep understanding and retreated with the servants in the palace. She personally guarded the entrance of the palace.

Zhu Chanyi was very shocked when she saw this scene. The Crown Princess was able to touch Aunt Zhao. Aunt Zhao was the most trusted person of the Queen.

It seemed that the relationship between the Crown Princess and the Queen was closer than she thought, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. It would be great if it was true.

King Rong glanced at Su Xinyi and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't be pretentious. What happened?"

It's inconvenient for my eldest brother to be away from the capital. Look, he has to listen to Su Xinyi second-hand for all the news here.

Su Xinyi didn't care about what King Rong said. She glanced at King Rong first to see him shut his mouth. Then he turned to look at the Queen. He thought about it and slowly said, "I got a piece of news here. King Yi and Ji Shilang privately meet."

"What?"

"Is there such a thing?"

The Queen and King Rong spoke in unison, worthy of being two mothers and sons.

The queen frowned, ignored her son, looked at Su Xinyi and asked, "What do you think?"

Of course, Su Xinyi couldn't say that she and her mother-in-law had already taken action. After the queen found out, she would definitely feel that she had not foreseen her. It was hard to say whether she would be angry or not, but she would definitely feel a little uncomfortable in her heart.

She looked at the queen seriously and said after careful consideration: "It's hard for my daughter-in-law to make guesses now. However, King Yi has been keeping a low profile since he came to Beijing. He was also very cautious when meeting Ji Shilang this time. He looked like he didn't want others to find out. That's why. It’s very suspicious. Speaking of which, it’s a coincidence that we know about this matter. Does Aunt Fu in Prince Xiang’s Mansion, Queen Mother still remember her?”

Of course the Queen knew that she would never forget the first person who made Concubine Li so angry. If she hadn't been concerned about His Majesty, she would have given Fu Yun a hard reward.

"Hasn't Fuyun returned to Prince Xiang's Mansion a long time ago? Does this have anything to do with her?" The queen couldn't figure out what else was involved here.

Su Xinyi nodded slightly, "I can't say there is a direct relationship, but there is an indirect relationship. Mother, about the hunting ground, Aunt Fu, Xu Yurong and Princess Runyi were all questioned by the Ministry of Punishment. His Highness always felt that Aunt Fu was It was not true at all, but there was no evidence, so people kept keeping an eye on Yuling Temple. Aunt Fu returned to the palace a few days ago, and the people who were watching over there were unable to do anything. As a result, they discovered the private meeting between King Yi and Ji Shilang. .”

Su Xinyi couldn't involve Zeng Liang and those little beggars. It didn't matter that she had a harmonious relationship with the queen now. If they fell out one day, she was afraid that the queen would take it out on them, so Su Xinyi thought about it carefully and decided to discuss the matter. The credit for his achievements is placed on the head of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Anyway, the use of Zeng Liang was agreed upon with His Highness the Crown Prince, so there was nothing wrong with it.

Not to mention that the Queen was surprised, King Rong was also surprised. He looked at Su Xinyi and said, "It must have been your idea. You are the most petty person. You didn't catch Fu Yun's handle. He couldn't swallow this breath, so he stared at it. Right? I didn’t expect that you, a blind cat, would encounter a dead mouse and actually catch a big fish."

Su Xinyi's face turned black with anger, and she looked at King Rong without being polite, "So what if what you said is true? It can be seen that the heavens pity me for being righteous and can't bear for me to return empty-handed. If it were you, you could do it ?"

"You are so thick-skinned, does my elder brother know?" King Rong has never seen Su Xinyi like this. She is even more fleshy than him and can't even cut through.

Zhu Chanyi was laughing like crazy in her heart, she was the Crown Princess, who dared to criticize King Rong like this.

The queen held up her forehead and suffered losses every time. She didn't have a long memory every time. When you criticized Su Xinyi, weren't you the one who suffered the loss in the end?

If you remember eating but not beating, you are a thief.

"Your Highness knows, so what if you don't know. Anyway, I won't criticize Your Highness like this." Su Xinyi said confidently.

King Rong:......

Another day when Su Xinyi was shamelessly defeated.

Zhu Chanyi coughed slightly and immediately changed the subject. She looked at the Crown Princess and said with a smile, "I thought the hunting ground matter was over. I didn't expect His Highness the Crown Prince to be so wise and plan ahead. This time he really caught a big fish."

When Su Xinyi heard this, he glanced at King Rong and said, "Learn from your wife. I love hearing what others say."

"Do you want to take care of my business?" Wang Rong was so angry that he almost slammed the table. Why, it wasn't enough to fight him, he also grabbed his wife and continued to fight him.

unacceptable!

The queen really couldn't see it and immediately said, "Do you know what they said?"

He is a good son that she raised regardless of getting down to business.

Su Xinyi shook his head, "The surveillance is only outside Yuling Nunnery, it is difficult to go deep inside."

The queen was thoughtful, then looked at Su Xinyi and asked: "If Ji Shilang is really related to King Yi, it would make sense for Princess Wu to attend the banquet. In this way, King Wu had to marry the Ji family female……"

The queen was suspicious, but did not say anything clearly. She looked at Su Xinyi and asked silently.

Su Xinyi shook his head, "I don't know about this unless I ask King Wu. However, in the current situation, it is better not to disturb King Wu."

What happened to King Wu and Ji Yun back then? If no bad rumors about this kind of thing happened and were spread, then if you want to know the inside story, you can only ask the person involved.

King Wu has a very boring temperament and rarely talks, and it is not the best idea to ask him directly.

Anyway, King Wu doesn't dislike his princess now. Asking questions rashly may arouse King Wu's vigilance. If Ji Yun finds out, the news will easily leak out. Then King Yi will definitely take precautions after knowing about it.

This is not the result Su Xinyi wants.

The queen took it seriously, frowned and said: "This is really an unpleasant thing, so what should I do? Is there anything you can do?"

Su Xinyi shook his head and sighed, "His Royal Highness was not in the capital, and the meeting between King Yi and Ji Shilang was held secretly. Even if he was met by someone, wouldn't King Yi be able to interact with people in the capital? It would be useless to make a fuss in front of His Majesty. On the contrary, Easily beaten down."

Zhu Chanyi heard this and said, "I have heard something about King Wu and Ji Yun, but I don't know whether it is true or false."

Su Xinyi immediately asked: "What's going on?"

The queen also looked at her with burning eyes.

Zhu Chanyi was inexplicably nervous. She was not as embarrassed as she is now when raising a sword in the martial arts arena. She calmed down and said: "If this is said, it must have happened before the Crown Princess returned to Beijing. It seems that she was the first king of Wu." The first time I encountered some trouble when I was on an errand, Ji Yun happened to be passing by and helped me out. I don’t know the specific process, but I overheard someone talking about it once when I attended a banquet at Guangping County Prince’s Mansion.”

At this point, Zhu Chanyi's expression suddenly twitched, and she looked at Su Xinyi and said, "You also know that person, he is Xu Yurong."

Su Xinyi did not expect that things would be such a coincidence. Before she tore off Xu Yurong's hypocrisy, Xu Yurong had always had a good reputation in the capital and was naturally a frequent visitor to major banquets in the capital.

"In this case, Xu Yurong should have been in contact with Princess Wu at that time, and the relationship should be pretty good. Otherwise, how could she know these things?" Su Xinyi said after thinking.

Unexpectedly, she suddenly remembered that in her previous life, she encountered Xu Yurong and made things difficult for her several times when she went out as a guest. Looking back now, Ji Yun seemed to be everywhere where Xu Yurong was, but Ji Yun's presence was not very clear. It's just obvious.

If she hadn't encountered these things now, she would never have gone back to guess what the relationship between Xu Yurong and Ji Yun was.

Zhu Chanyi listened to what Su Xinyi said and said: "It is indeed right to think so. In the past, we could meet these two at many banquets. However, there are only so many ladies in the capital, so no one would feel strange if we meet each other frequently. So I didn’t think too much about it. Looking back now, the Marquis Anding’s Mansion has fallen into decline, but Shi Lang Ji has a bright future. The two families usually have no contact, so it is unexpected that the two have become friends. "

Basically, the ladies of each family will be friends with the adults in the family.

Just like after Su Xinyi came back, the people who usually interacted more with the Duke of Qi were from the better families. Mrs. Jiang was a complete accident, because Su Xinyi had helped at that time, and the relationship between the two families was also between Mrs. Jiang and Su. The relationship between Xin and Yi is natural and will not cause people to think too much.

But when we think about Ji Yun and Xu Yurong carefully, it's different. First of all, the two families have no contact. One is a declining noble, and the other is a rising court minister. The noble and civil servants have never been able to deal with them.

King Rong slammed the table, looked at Su Xinyi and said, "So, if Xu Yurong is good with Ji Yun, then Fuyun and his cousin are also related to Yuling'an, wouldn't it be..."

He was about to say that he was the same person, but then he remembered Yan Qiongsi and swallowed it back immediately, but the meaning was already obvious.

The queen's face suddenly turned ugly.

When Su Xinyi said this, she had no intention of taking it back easily. She looked at the empress and spoke slowly, "Princess Runyi, I think it's best for the empress to test it out. If nothing happens, it's best. If anything happens, you can still do it now." Give me a hand. King Yi is somewhat suspicious of the granary case and the attack on the caravan."

At this point, Su Xinyi could no longer hold back when she saw the queen's face. She added, "The marriage between Princess Runyi and the Jiang family is also unusual. Mrs. Jiang is very dissatisfied with being plotted against. How can this marriage be done?" It's hard to say if it won't happen, but if we really fall out with the Jiang family, given Jiang Shangshu's upright temperament, it's hard to say who will suffer in front of the emperor."

The queen suddenly raised her head and looked at Su Xinyi, "The Jiang family wants to break off the engagement?" After saying this, she felt something was wrong, "How did you know about this?"

Su Xinyi glanced at King Rong.

Queen:......

King Rong met his mother's fiery gaze and said nonchalantly, "What can't be said? Now that it sounds like it's a good thing to say it, I'll say that the marriage with the Jiang family is inappropriate. You and your aunt are still lucky. Heart."

Only then did Su Xinyi know that the queen actually approved of this marriage.

When the queen met Su Xinyi's suspicious eyes, she felt very embarrassed for a moment, but she was afraid that Su Xinyi was thinking wrongly, so she had to explain, "The Jiang family has a pure family tradition and a clean family background. I think this marriage is a good thing for Qiong Si."

Su Xinyi thought to herself that this would not be a good thing for the Jiang family.

She thought so in her heart but couldn't say it with her mouth. She had to take care of the queen's face, so she sighed softly, "Yes, the Jiang family is indeed a good family. Xu Yurong pushed me into the water in order to marry Mr. Jiang. , I also think that the Jiang family is a rare good family, but because of this, Queen Mother, haven’t you ever thought that if the family is upright, there must be upright bones to support it.”

The Queen's whole body shivered, of course she knew, it was just a fluke.

After all, Yan Qiongsi is the child she has cared about for so long, so she naturally hopes that she will find a good home.

Looking at the queen's expression, Su Xinyi could guess what she was thinking. Speaking of which, the queen was kind and kind, but she was right for the wrong person.

King Rong also frowned, knowing that Qi Dafei was unlucky, but hearing what Su Xinyi said made him feel very harsh.

Speaking of which, his cousin's marriage had too many twists and turns.
