255: Let Him Do Things that Offend Others Emotionally

Mrs. Zhang said what she had to say, and hurriedly said that she had something else to do in the shop and left.

Aunt Qiao looked at Mrs. Zhang's back as she fled in panic, and couldn't help but stand up and walk around the room. If this was true, as long as it could be confirmed...

Suddenly, she remembered the evidence Wu An gave her. She was a little hesitant before. If this matter could be confirmed, plus those evidences, she didn't believe that she couldn't bring down Liang.

If Liang fell, even if she couldn't make her the legal wife, at least the master could welcome her into the mansion. After a few years, the master would remarry. She would have already controlled the Liang Mansion's finances, and her children would be older, so she could stand on her own feet, and there would be nothing to be afraid of even if a new wife came in.

Thinking of this, Aunt Qiao's heart couldn't help it. She really hated Liang.

Who would have thought that Liang's position as Mrs. Liang was not obtained in a fair and just way? Thinking of how the lady always praised Liang, she didn't know if she could still praise her after she knew the truth!

Aunt Qiao entered the inner room and looked at the stack of papers on the table. She was in a state of mixed emotions and could not help but rub her hands back and forth on the roll of papers.

Liang's scandal must have had some impact on the master, but she had to think about herself and the child. The child was growing up and could not bear the name of a concubine's daughter. She could not just recognize her ancestors.

Liang had hurt her so much, how could she swallow this breath...

On the other side, Duke Su Xinyi of Qi received a letter from the prince, asking her to go to the Lantern Festival to enjoy the lanterns, and she agreed without thinking much.

The next day, she went to the martial arts field as usual, and several brothers were there. Everyone practiced their own moves after a few gestures. Not long after, the old man got on the carriage and entered the palace.

Su Xinyi's thoughts were inevitably scattered when she knew it. Prince Rong happened to come at this time. As soon as he came, he caught Su Xinyi in a daze and immediately said proudly: "You always teach others a lesson, aren't you lazy?"

Su Xinyi:...

Here we go again!

Su Qi and the others pretended not to hear and did what they were supposed to do. After a while, they saw the sixth sister pick up the gun, and Prince Rong ran away.

Hey, why bother.

Prince Rong ran two laps and stopped, looking at Su Xinyi and waving his hand, "Don't chase me, I have something to ask you." Fearing that Su Xinyi would suddenly attack, he jumped onto the plum blossom pile to keep a perfect attack distance with her.

Su Xinyi put away the spear and put it back on the weapon rack, squatted in horse stance and began to practice qi, looking at Prince Rong and said, "What do you want to ask?"

"I heard that Cao Qing and Mu Xing are back?"

"Your Highness is well-informed."

"You are really a dishonest person. How could you not tell me when someone comes back?"

"Your Highness's people will be back soon, so why should I bother with this? It's nothing important." Su Xinyi said.

"Really everything is fine?" Prince Rong looked at Su Xinyi and asked, always feeling that it was unlikely.

Su Xinyi looked back at the Prince Rong who was approaching secretly. The Prince Rong did not expect to be caught red-handed, and immediately took a step back, "Tell me quickly, is there anything wrong?"

"I want to ask you something. I told you to take over the caravan before. When do you plan to leave for the south?"

"It must be after the first month of the year, right?" Prince Rong looked at Su Xinyi suspiciously, "If you say that, there must be something wrong."

Su Xinyi smiled, "Prince, if the Tatars invade the border, will you still go?"

Prince Rong was stunned for a moment. This time, he did not run there on his own like he did last time. It was only when he went there that he realized how small his power was. He was not even worth a sackcloth before the enemy army.

"It's hard to say." Prince Rong thought about it and said, "Don't lie to me. Just tell me what's going on."

Su Xinyi exhaled slowly, then stood up and told the Prince Rong about the matter briefly.

Prince Rong was silent. He really hated the Tatars. "What do you think? You won't go again, will you? Oh, you can't go. You have to marry my brother. You have to get married."

Prince Rong looked at Su Xinyi's calm face and felt annoyed for some reason. "Hey, what do you think?"

Su Xinyi looked at Prince Rong's somewhat irritable face and suddenly laughed. "Prince, do you still remember what we said when we discussed the establishment of the caravan that year?"

"There were too many words. How can I remember every word clearly?" Prince Rong really didn't know which sentence Su Xinyi was referring to.

Su Xinyi smiled, but didn't say anything this time. She picked up the spear and shot a series of spear shadows in the air. Prince Rong watched from the side and kept turning his mind.

After practicing a set of spear skills, Su Xinyi felt much more relaxed. She breathed a sigh of relief. Facing the worried looks of several brothers, she smiled and said, "Practice?"

Su Qi and others immediately turned around and left. It was not good to get injured during the New Year.

Su Xinyi started laughing. Prince Rong was watching this scene from the side. He didn't know why he suddenly felt a little envious.

Although he had brothers, he didn't have a close relationship with anyone. It was only because he had more contact with his eldest brother over the past year that the relationship became better.

So seeing Su Xinyi and her brothers so tacitly understand each other, he felt sour in his heart.

How sincere can brothers in the royal family be.

"Su Xinyi, you haven't said the sentence that you made me miss you?"

Su Xinyi didn't expect Prince Rong to be so persistent this time, so she said: "I just said it casually, Your Majesty, don't take it to heart."

"Who are you kidding? Su Xinyi, we have known each other for so long, how can I not tell whether what you said is true or false?" Prince Rong was unhappy.

Su Xinyi was startled, but this time she smiled sincerely and sighed softly, "Your Majesty, I just think about the justice of the country. One person's power is still too small. I'm just a little sad."

The smile on King Rong's face slowly froze. He thought the same thing. He glanced at Su Xinyi again. Could it be that she had the ability to read minds?

Rolling his eyes, King Rong said to Su Xinyi: "Hey, to be honest, when I first came here, how did you plan to trick me?"

"My lord, what you said is unkind. What do you mean I'm cheating on you? Can that be called a trap? That's called urging you to make progress."

King Rong sat down and looked at Su Xinyi, "I don't know you yet? You are as narrow-minded as a sieve. Just tell me."

"My lord, let me ask you something. If a war is really going to start, the Tatars are well prepared this time, with strong soldiers and horses, and plenty of food and grass. If it really comes to a standstill, how long do you think Yulin Guards and Zhangping Mansion can hold out?"

"Why can't you hold on? The imperial army will definitely support you."

"The army has not moved yet, but food and grass go first. Your Majesty, it is not easy to mobilize the three armies. How was last year's harvest?"

King Rong opened his mouth and said nothing. Last year, there was drought in the north and floods in the south. The harvest was less than in previous years. His father also exempted taxes in several places to appease the people.

Su Xinyi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, although talking about money is tacky and not worthy of your noble temperament, the army cannot be driven without food and grass."

"So, you asked me when I would go south? You asked me to collect food?"

"Your Majesty, please don't talk nonsense. Only Your Majesty can give orders for raising grains, and the Ministry of Household Affairs will execute them. What does it have to do with me?"

"Don't say these superficial words, just say what if I just went to the caravan."

"Your Majesty, you are His Majesty's biological son. As long as you come forward to ask His Majesty to issue a food collection order, who can say anything? How much food can ordinary people's families have? Most of the food is in the hands of wealthy businessmen, and ordinary people can buy it from them. I won’t come out, but the prince is different.”

King Rong was confused. What the good guy said sounded nice. Didn't Su Xinyi mean that he would use both soft and hard tactics to buy grain from merchants?

Good guy, let him do things that offend others emotionally?

"You...you are so good!" King Rong was so angry that he almost stuttered. What kind of friend is this?

King Rong left angrily. Su Xinyi smiled. She stood up, stretched her muscles and performed a set of punches. She was about to go back when her second brother blocked the way.

"Second brother?"

"Let's talk?"

Su Xinyi:......

Don't want to!

In the end, the second brother took her and several other brothers to the front study. After listening to Su Xinyi's words, everyone was silent for a long time.

They have never encountered this kind of thing, but they often hear it from their elders and know some things.

Su Bei looked at Xin Yi at this moment, "Are you thinking about these things so much at such a young age?"

He was a little ashamed, he had never taken the initiative to think about this.

This is probably what my grandfather said about the difference between them and the sixth sister.

After hearing what the third brother said, Su Xinyi said, "Maybe it's nature?"

Everyone:...

All the sadness and guilt were swept away.

Su Xinyi smiled, "Brothers, I just think that everything must be nipped in the bud. The battlefield is changing rapidly, so we must be fully prepared. Of course, we are not allowed to worry about these major events. I think about the two brothers. Brother should be coming to the capital soon, have you ever thought about going out with the two cousins ​​after the new year to get to know each other better?"

Even if a tiger is kept in a cage, it will become a domestic cat. The eagle should be let out and fly, no matter how many times it falls.

"Let me think about it." Su Qi said seriously. He felt that the sixth sister was definitely not just mentioning this matter. She must have other plans, but it was just not convenient for her to speak out for the time being.

"I just mentioned it casually." Su Xinyi stood up, "Then I'll go back first, brothers."

Su Xinyi returned to her yard to shower and change clothes, then went to the study room, closed the door and calmed down to read.

The people in the capital are celebrating the New Year happily, unaware that war may soon break out at the border. The lantern market for the Lantern Festival has begun to be set up, and it is very spectacular from a distance. When the lanterns are lit on the night of the Lantern Festival, the whole The capital is as beautiful as a fairy palace.

When the old man came back from the palace, news broke that the marriage between Su Xinyi and the prince was scheduled for the end of February. Isn't this too soon?

It’s only been more than a month since I’ve finished all my calculations, right?

Before everyone could recover, the Minister of Rites had received the imperial decree to resume work ahead of schedule, and immediately came to the Duke of Qi's Mansion to discuss the specific process of the marriage with the old man.

Su Xinyi knew that the wedding date would definitely be brought forward, but she didn't expect that it would be set in February. It was indeed too soon.

"February has been called the wedding month since ancient times, so February is just the right time." Madam Tai looked at Su Xinyi and said with a smile, "The three letters and six etiquettes will be complete, you don't have to worry. Your Majesty has already decided on the letter of engagement when granting the marriage. When the ceremony is over, the gift letters will be exchanged. You don’t have to worry about anything, just wait for the wedding. "

Su Xinyi nodded, "I listen to my grandmother."

In fact, she knew everything about the wedding process and was not too panicked.

Three letters and six etiquettes. The three letters of engagement have been exchanged. Since His Majesty granted the marriage, the ceremony and asking for names were omitted. Naji had already gone through it years ago, and now only three etiquettes are left.

Today, the Minister of Rites came here to ask about the day of the big ceremony. To celebrate the big ceremony, you also need to exchange ritual books, so you have to choose an auspicious day.

The wedding ceremony is scheduled for the sixth day of February, which is a good day.

The news that the Minister of Rites went to the Duke of Qi's mansion to discuss the prince's wedding before the end of the first month of the lunar year spread quickly. Who would have thought that His Majesty would be so anxious about the prince's wedding date? It was very surprising.

The Lantern Festival came in a flash. The family knew that the prince had made an appointment with Xinyi to watch the lanterns today. The fourth lady came early to accompany her daughter to choose clothes for going out. This was the first time that the prince had made such a formal appointment with Xinyi, so she took it very seriously.

Su Xinyi liked to be dressed by her mother. She sat there obediently and tried on one piece after another patiently. Lianqiao and Cuique beside her knew that they could not straighten their backs. Madam She was also happy. It was rare to see the county lady so well-behaved.

It seemed that in front of the fourth lady, the girl was particularly obedient.

"Madam, the carriage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting outside the mansion."

The fourth lady hurriedly said, "Hurry up, I'll put this jade hairpin on for you."

Su Xinyi sat in front of the bronze mirror, watching her mother insert the Ruyi jade hairpin into her hair. Seeing her mother's smile in the mirror, Su Xinyi also smiled and was very happy.

Yan Junchu did not go in to disturb the people in the Duke of Qi's mansion. He stood beside the carriage outside the mansion. When he heard the footsteps, he raised his head slightly and saw Su Xinyi, who was wearing a goose yellow dress and a fox fur cloak, walking out of the door. Her black hair was pinned with a Ruyi jade hairpin. Ordinary girls like more gorgeous hairpins, but this jade hairpin on Su Xinyi's head made her face look quiet and cold, and her facial features became more bright.

Su Xinyi walked down the steps step by step with a faint smile on her face. Yan Junchu stepped forward and stared at her with his head down. It was rare to see her dressed up like this. At first glance, he was really amazed.

Su Xinyi met the eyes of the prince, and her face was hot. "Your Highness, have you been waiting for a long time?"

"No." Yan Junchu stretched out his hand and smiled at Su Xinyi, "Get in the car first."

Su Xinyi's eyes fell on the white and long fingers of His Highness the Prince. After hesitating for a while, she finally stretched out her hand and placed it in the palm of His Highness the Prince.

Yan Junchu curled his lips, helped Su Xinyi get on the car, and then got on himself.

Yang Jin, who was sitting on the shaft of the car, didn't see anything.

It was unexpected that their prince would do such a thing.

Su Xinyi sat opposite the prince. The carriage was very spacious. The carriage slowly turned, and the wheels made a squeaking sound when pressing on the bluestone slabs.

She felt that her heartbeat was like these squeaking sounds, dong dong dong, like beating a drum.
