Chapter 276 A blessed daughter will not enter an unblessed home
King Cheng and Shen Zhongshu looked at each other, and they knew there was a problem from the looks they exchanged.
What purpose could someone have for someone who is just looking for Pan Zhiyuan to do something for him?
"Commander Huo, this matter still requires you to go to the hall for a while."
Huo Mi couldn't help but swear.
"Okay, I'll go now."
……
Prince Anping had already arrived at the Lizheng Hall and immediately bowed as soon as he entered.
When Princess Anping saw him coming, she felt as if her backer had come. She immediately started to complain about Su Rutang non-stop.
Prince Anping: “…”
"shut up."
Princess Anping looked at Prince Anping in disbelief, "Prince, you are mean to me? You are mean to me for outsiders? You can't be mean to me just because she is the queen. I used to be very nice to her."
Prince Anping suppressed his anger.
He apologized to Su Rutang and left holding Princess Anping's hand.
Got outside.
Princess Anping still didn't know where she went wrong.
Only Madam Jane was left inside.
She swallowed nervously, and seeing that Su Rutang didn't even give face to Princess Anping, she truly realized that the woman in front of her was no longer the same woman as before.
"The Queen."
"Are you here to ask for a marriage decree as well?"
Madam Jian noticed that the atmosphere in the room was gradually becoming heavy, and she felt uncomfortable as if she was sitting on pins and needles. "My family's Shu Chi loves Miss Su, and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. But because of the reasons of the late emperor and the empress dowager, we had no choice but to do something to Miss Su Qingwan.
Now... it's all over. I thought I should give the children a chance, which would also preserve the friendship between the two families. I hope the queen will grant my wish."
Su Rutang waited for Madam Jian to finish speaking, then spoke calmly:
"It's better not to talk about the past. It was just a joke between children, not worthy of the term childhood sweethearts."
Madam Jian looked up at Su Rutang cautiously, with a wry smile on her face:
"It's really Shuchi... Besides, Miss Qingwan also likes our Shuchi. Why don't you ask Miss Qingwan, so that the children won't have any regrets."
Su Rutang just felt that this sentence was ironic.
Now I’m afraid of leaving regrets.
Why did you disagree with it so wholeheartedly before?
She remembered in her heart that in her previous life, Jian Shuchi killed the family of the governor of Jinzhou Prefecture in order to avenge Su Qingwan, regardless of his own friendship. However, she did not expect that Jian Shuchi was a man who did not cherish what he had and only regretted it when he lost it.
Even if Su Qingwan was with him.
Who knows if there will be more changes in life in the future.
On the contrary, she didn't want Su Qingwan to marry Jian Shuchi.
"Regret? If Madam Jian had been so concerned before, she wouldn't have any regrets. The friendship we had when we were young wasn't a big deal, but it should have worn away after all these things.
If Madam Jian finds a good family in the future, I will definitely arrange a marriage for Master Jian.
It’s just that… the girls of our Su family are just that. A blessed girl will not marry into an unblessed family.”
Su Rutang bluntly said that Jian Shuchi was not worthy of Su Qingwan.
"What kind of family does the Queen intend to find for Miss Qingwan?" Madam Jian didn't believe that there was anyone in the capital who would be willing to marry a girl who had someone else in her heart.
"It doesn't matter if you are a peddler or a rich king. As long as Qingwan likes it, it's fine."
"She likes..."
"Madam Jian, I am grateful for your friendship with my aunt. But you should know the importance of things. My niece will tell me what kind of person she likes.
As an outsider, do you think you know better than me?"
Su Rutang paused for a moment, "Madam Jian still puts her mind on the Jian Mansion. Why are several important officials, even Secretary Shen, able to supervise the country? Your Jian Mansion..."
Mrs. Jane's face turned pale and red.
I didn't dare say anything more.
"Madam Jian, please don't bring your badge into the palace if you have nothing to do. I am meeting you today to make you retreat when you see difficulty."
Mrs. Jane's head was filled with shadows.
Her face was as pale as a sheet of paper. “I know I was wrong.”
Su Rutang stopped there.
No more talking.
He waved his hand and asked her to go out.
Chunxi came in and asked a few palace maids to take away all the tea cups, snack plates and other items in the hall.
She put a piece of agarwood in the Boshan furnace.
Came to Su Rutang.
He reached out and massaged Su Rutang's head. "The queen is also good-tempered. She should not meet them and send them away directly."
"Oh. It will come eventually." Su Rutang thought of the two children again.
"Where are Yaoyao and Qi'er?"
"Still in class. The prince and princess are really hard-working. They have to get up before dawn every day to practice martial arts." Chunxi got a headache just thinking about it. "The daily homework is heavy, and the prince also has to study the affairs of the court.
That Minister Bo showed the memorial to the Crown Prince, how old is he?"
"It's always better for the abandoned child to sit in this position earlier." Su Rutang closed his eyes and let Chunxi massage him.
After a while.
Then she opened her eyes.
He waved Chunxi away.
Su Rutang got up and went to Song Huaiyan.
Just then, Song Huaiyan came to see the Duke's wife coming out. "Grandma, I heard you had a cough just now, so I asked someone to pack some tonic. Take it back and ask the maid to stew it for you. I'll send it to you after you finish eating."
There was a smile in the Duke's wife's eyes.
"I'm fine. It's just that your face is thinner than before."
"I've been busy lately, so I'll be fine after this period of time." Song Huaiyan looked up and saw Su Rutang, and smiled hurriedly, "Sister. I'm taking a nap, so you asked Qingdai to carry me over."
"Well. You are right under my nose. I want to see how you can be lazy and not eat."
Su Rutang's eyes and brows were filled with smile.
The Duke's wife hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Madam, please don't be polite."
Su Rutang asked someone to send the Duke's wife out.
Wait until she leaves.
Su Rutang held Song Huaiyan's hand and asked, "Why are you and the Ningguo Mansion..."
Song Huaiyan rolled her eyes.
"If it was before, I would definitely ignore them. But now I am mature, it's just mutual use." Song Huaiyan said with a smile: "They can't take advantage of me, I don't think we need to be enemies."
"I haven't seen Yaoyao for a long time."
"Then I'll take you to find Yaoyao." Su Rutang didn't want Song Huaiyan to keep thinking about the explosives.
So he took her to find Yaoyao and Shangqi.
Song Huaiyan had already learned from the maid that she was pregnant, and she touched her flat belly. "Sister, do you think it's right or wrong for me to give birth to this child?"
"Of course you have to give birth. You already lost one, and if you lose another, it will be really difficult to be a mother in the future."
Song Huaiyan thought of Xiao Zhijie.
In her heart, she actually liked Xiao Zhijie, otherwise she wouldn't always be with him.
"But... her (his) father is a great general of the Li Kingdom, and our two countries are still at war." Song Huaiyan also had a headache. She had been away for so long, but only Xiao Zhijie had entered her heart.
"Whether there is a war or not, the child in your belly is yours. As for whether to let him know his biological father, it depends on your heart."
Song Huaiyan thought of the baby in her belly.
It is tinged with a little halo of maternal love.
"Perhaps, I will tell the child. I believe I will find a way to use my brain to help the army drive them out."
"Mother. Aunt."
Far away.
Yaoyao has already run over.
The housekeeper behind her shouted:
"Princess. You can't run."
Yaoyao laughed loudly, "Today I am not a princess, I am Yaoyao. The Yaoyao who can run around in the palace."
Yaoyao first hugged Su Rutang.
He hugged Song Huaiyan again.
"Yaoyao, don't touch your aunt's belly."
Yaoyao took a step back, opened her big round eyes, bit her nails, and tilted her head.
"Is your aunt pregnant?"
"Yes, I have a baby."
Yaoyao jumped up happily and said, "Then I am the elder sister."
"Well, you are the older sister. You have to take care of your younger brothers and sisters. Of course, if they are disobedient, you can beat them." Song Huaiyan said patiently to Yaoyao.
Yaoyao suddenly understood.
"Hehehe... Then I have two more followers."
Song Huaiyan hurriedly explained:
"He's a follower. We don't know yet whether he's a brother or a sister."
"My brother and I were both born from our mother's womb, so why is there only one aunt?"
Song Huaiyan: "..."
Su Rutang quickly interrupted:
"Where's your brother?"
"My brother said he was going to choose a study partner today." Yaoyao tilted her head and looked around, pretending to be mysterious and said, "Mother, I heard them talking about how some officials didn't like their sons to be my brother's study partners."
Su Rutang's face turned cold.
"Who said that?"
"I heard it when I was in the Imperial Garden. But I don't know who said it. Humph... It's said that father may not come back. And something else... something that the king will not give up."
Yaoyao is still young and can’t understand many things.
Su Rutang and Song Huaiyan heard it.
This is because a certain prince still covets the throne and has won over a group of officials.
In addition, Shang Yan went to the South to lead the army in person, so they seemed very sure that Shang Yan would not be able to come back.
unless……
"Huai Yan. It's really hard to guard against the court. No wonder they say it's lonely at the top. There are too many people scheming against you." Su Rutang thought to himself that he would never let those people succeed in their schemes.
She has to guard the capital for Shang Yan.
They also had to guard the center of power and allocate military rations to several places for them.
Something flashed through Song Huaiyan's mind, but he didn't catch it.
I had no choice but to comfort Su Rutang with a few words.
"Let's go and see the prince choose a study partner."
