After the prince enters the play

It's Suizhou again!

Su Xinyi's expression is not very good. There are a lot of things related to Suizhou recently. She thought for a while and asked: "Sister-in-law, I wonder if there is any relationship between Zeng's family and Prince Yi's mansion, or any contacts?"

Mrs. Zeng heard the question from the sixth younger sister, and said directly: "It's not that close. My mother is the aunt of Princess Yi's cousin, and she had some contacts with her before, but not many. However, since King Yi inherited the palace, He intends to have more contact with my family."

Su Xinyi was quite surprised. She didn't expect that the sister-in-law's natal family had something to do with Yiwang's mansion. The relationship was not close, but Yiwang's mansion gradually increased the frequency of contacts with Zeng's family, which was a bit surprising.

Seeing Sixth Sister's expression, Zeng also felt a little uneasy, "Sixth Sister, but what's wrong?"

Su Xinyi shook her head and asked the girl beside her to watch over her. She looked at Zeng and said, "Sister-in-law, you know about the second elder brother going south, right?"

Mrs. Zeng nodded, "I've heard a little bit, but after all, it's an outside matter, and I didn't pay much attention to it. You know, your elder brother has been going south for so long, and I took my child with me, and I still have to worry about him. I'm a junior again. After all, it's about the second uncle's side, so I don't want to ask more questions."

Su Xinyi could understand that in the past few years, Zeng's life in the Duke's Mansion was not very comfortable, and it was only after what happened to Su Baiwei that the eldest lady treated Zeng better.

Probably because she has developed a habit, Mrs. Zeng is very measured in doing things, and she doesn't easily interfere with the affairs of other houses, especially the affairs of men outside, and she will not take the initiative to ask.

Su Xinyi pondered for a moment, looked at his sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, the second brother went south to investigate the dead man, you know it has something to do with the hunting ground."

Mrs. Zeng nodded, she knew this, the incident at the hunting ground was also scary, and King Xiang and You Xiangru had lost a lot of face.

"Is this matter related to my natal family's affairs?" Zeng didn't quite understand the relationship here.

Su Xinyi said: "It's definitely not related to my sister-in-law's family, but it's hard to say whether it has anything to do with Yiwang's mansion. The source of the dead man is in Suizhou, and Suizhou is now with King Yi. It can't be said that the dead man has something to do with Yiwang's mansion, but it can't be said either. It doesn't matter."

Zeng's expression changed, "Sixth sister, what do you mean..."

"Sister-in-law, I can't tell you anything for sure now." Su Xinyi said.

Zeng nodded, "I understand, let me think about it."

Su Xinyi was not in a hurry, and stood there waiting for his sister-in-law to clear her mind.

Prince Yi's mansion has no direct relationship with the Zeng family, they are just the aunt of a cousin, how can Princess Yi be so close to the Zeng family?
Anything abnormal will always make people suspicious, especially now that Suizhou has become the focus of Su Xinyi's observation, so he is inevitably more sensitive to these things.

At this moment, Mrs. Zeng regained her composure and looked at Su Xinyi with a worried face, "Sixth sister, should I write a letter back?"

Su Xinyi knew that sister-in-law was worried about her family, so she thought about it, "Sister-in-law, you can't write this letter."

Mrs. Zeng was taken aback, then heard Su Xinyi say again: "Well, I will write a letter to my second brother. If my second brother is free, I will ask my second brother to go to Huiqi to meet Uncle Zeng in person. These things are related to Zeng. Uncle knows, and it will be better if Uncle Zeng informs the family."

Su Xinyi was afraid that Mrs. Zeng would not be able to control her mentality if she suddenly knew about these things, and would be spotted by Prince Yi's mansion. If King Yi's side was really involved in the matter of the dead man, wouldn't it be the same as Push the Zeng family into a fire pit?
Therefore, she is very cautious.

After hearing Xin Yi's words, Zeng also heaved a sigh of relief, "It would be great if this is the case. I just want to bother the sixth sister and the second brother, and I feel really sorry."

"Sister-in-law, we are a family, so there is no need to say such polite words." Su Xinyi did not expect Zeng's cooperation to be so cooperative, and he was relieved.

Zeng was thoughtful, looked at Xin Yi and asked again, "Otherwise, I will write another letter to my mother, not mentioning this matter, just talking about my affairs in the capital, what do you think of my sixth sister?"

"Of course." Su Xinyi didn't expect her sister-in-law's mind to turn so fast. She and Mrs. Zeng corresponded as usual. If Prince Yi's mansion really had other intentions, they could numb their eyes.

Zeng pursed her lips and smiled, as long as she could help.

Su Xinyi agreed with Zeng Shi, and then said goodbye to her and got into the carriage.

Mrs. Zeng stood outside the mansion and watched the carriage go away, and then turned back to the mansion, but there was another worry in her heart.

After Su Xinyi returned to the East Palace, the prince was still busy. She changed her clothes and took a rest, then went to the study and took out the map of Suizhou to look at.

Seeing this, Su Xinyi saw some meaning. Huiqi was only fifty or sixty miles away from Suizhou, so the sister-in-law's father was working under the nose of Suizhou.Huaining is more than [-] miles away from Suizhou, and Pingningwei is a little closer than Huaining. If you hurry from Pingningwei to Suizhou, you can get there in the same day.

Looking forward along this line, you will arrive at Yuning Mansion, the place where King Rong discovered that the granary was robbed. It is not far from Suizhou. The neighbors of Yuning are Cangnan and Chongping...

Su Xinyi didn't quite remember whether the granaries in Cangnan and Chongping had been robbed, but Yuning had.

Her hand was on Yuning and Huiqi, and Huiqi and Yuning were not far away.

If the sister-in-law hadn't suddenly mentioned the relationship between Prince Yi's mansion and the Zeng family today, she wouldn't have paid attention to Huiqi, but looking at the map now, she finds it interesting.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a faint sound of greetings. After a while, the crown prince strode in. Su Xinyi raised his head, and heard His Highness smile and say, "Why are you back so early?"

Su Xinyi got up to meet him, "It's getting late, Your Highness is done?"

Yan Junchu nodded, "I can finally breathe a sigh of relief today, how are the old man, Mrs. Tai and mother-in-law?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "Everyone in the family is well, don't worry, Your Highness."

Yan Junchu held Xin Yi's hand, saw the map on the desk, and asked with a smile, "Why, do you want to see where your elder brother has gone?"

Su Xinyi shook her head, "It's not because of this, my sister-in-law told me something, I think it's interesting..."

Su Xinyi repeated Zeng's words, and then looked at His Royal Highness, "Your Highness, what do you think Princess Yi wants to do? This kind of kinship is not considered within the five clothes, it is because my sister-in-law married into the Duke." However, the Zeng family is only my sister-in-law’s natal family, and my sister-in-law married far away. To be honest, my sister-in-law has never returned to her natal home after she got married. It’s not easy to go back with such a long distance.”

In the past, it was because Zeng's life in the Duke's Mansion was not bad but not good either. Naturally, he dared not bring up the matter of going back to his natal family to visit relatives. After all, it would take more than a month to go back and forth.

Later, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious, and the eldest sister-in-law gave birth to a child again. It was even more inconvenient for the child to return to her mother's house at such a young age.

Under such circumstances, Princess Yi and the Zeng family tried to get closer and closer, if there was nothing to hold her, she would not believe it.

After hearing this, Yan Junchu also looked at the map seriously, and said, "There is no bad news from Suizhou. King Yi has been very honest and steady in Suizhou in recent years, at least on the surface, and has not done anything. Things that are harmful to reputation, on the contrary, they often open warehouses to help the people, and they have some reputation among the local people."

"Why did King Yi go to Suizhou?" Su Xinyi looked at His Highness the Crown Prince and asked. She remembered that most of the royal families entrusted by the court lived around the capital and rarely let them out.

When Yan Jun heard Xin Yi's question at the beginning, he thought for a while and said: "The old father was the one who came to the throne, and the old Yi king helped the father. The emperor agreed."

"So that's the case. The old King Yi has passed away, so didn't the father recall the current King Yi?" Su Xinyi felt a little strange. Although His Majesty's temperament cannot be said to be suspicious, as an emperor, it is difficult to rest assured. The prince is out.

"Father did not mention this matter."

After hearing what the prince said, Su Xinyi thought in his heart that if His Majesty didn't mention this kind of thing, the prince and other lords naturally couldn't mention it, but neither did the court ministers mention it?

This is a little strange.

"The courtiers didn't mention this either?" Su Xinyi looked at Tai and asked.

Yan Junchu shook his head.

Su Xinyi thought for a while, then smiled and said, "This is a bit strange."

Yan Junchu looked at Xin Yi's smile and said with a smile, "What do you suspect? King Yi colluded with the courtiers?"

Su Xinyi shook her head, "There is no basis for it. How can you be so suspicious of others? I just simply find it strange."

"Yeah." Yan Junchu slightly nodded, "I'm going to propose to my father that when King Jing gets married, King Yi and his wife should come back to watch the ceremony."

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, "Your Highness, can it be done?"

If King Yi can come to Beijing, it will be much more convenient for the second brother and the others to work in Suizhou.

"King Wu's marriage was a little rushed, and King Yi didn't have enough time to go north, but King Jing's wedding was enough time, but King Jing didn't have enough time, and King Rong and King Xiang were still behind, so King Yi couldn't stop watching the ceremony."

Su Xinyi felt that it made a lot of sense, so he said: "In this way, King Yi and his wife have to go north." After a pause, "The old son of King Yi didn't inherit the title because of his health, so I don't know if he can go this time. Come?"

Facing Su Xinyi's shining eyes, Yan Junchu could guess her thoughts instantly, and couldn't help being amused, "You went with me."

Su Xinyi was overjoyed, "This is called a tacit understanding."

Yan Junchu laughed, it was true.

The two couples discussed for a while, and Yan Junchu went to Mingguang Palace to meet the subordinates of the Eastern Palace, and ordered them to handle the matter, and must play it in the court hall as quickly as possible. This prince seconded it.

Su Xinyi was extremely sleepy. After washing, he changed into pajamas. He wanted to wait for the prince to come back, but he fell asleep not long after touching the pillow.

After Yan Junchu came back, he opened the tent and saw that he was happy, and quietly washed and came back, lowered the tent, hugged him in his arms and closed his eyes.

I always feel that Xin Yi seems to be very tired recently. Could it be because he is tired of arranging the marriages of several younger brothers one after another?
Yan Junchu thought that when he was free tomorrow, he would let the imperial physician come over to take a look, maybe he would drink some decoction to nourish his body.

The court hall was very lively for several days in a row. The matter of King Xuan Yi's return to observe the ceremony passed without much obstacle. As a royal family, it was only right for King Yi to come back.

The order of the imperial court was sent to Suizhou soon. On the other side, Su Xinyi was helping the queen to prepare for King Jing's wedding. His Highness said that he would ask the imperial physician to come and check her pulse. She felt that her body was fine and she was really busy, so she pushed It's been a few days, wait for two days to have more time to talk about it.

Before they had time to see the imperial physician, Su Yi and his group arrived in the capital, followed by Su Deng and the others.

Su Xinyi was overjoyed, finally looking forward to returning.

She couldn't sit still in the East Palace, but she couldn't go back to Duke Qi's mansion directly, so she went to Yuanhui Palace to ask the queen directly.

The queen immediately agreed when she heard Su Xinyi's words, and said with a smile: "You brothers and sisters haven't seen each other for so long, you should see each other, just go."

Su Xinyi got up immediately, "Thank you, Queen Mother."

It was rare for the queen to see Su Xinyi look so eager, and said with a smile, "Your elder brother must wait for His Majesty to summon you, and you can only see your cousins ​​first when you return home..."

Before the Queen could speak, King Rong barged in, and seeing Su Xinyi, he immediately said happily: "I knew I could see you here, I knew Su Deng and the others were back, and it happened that Sheng Siming and Pang Lan were all here. Now, let's go to Duke Qi's mansion together?"

Who is with you?
Su Xinyi refused.

The queen looked at her proud son and wished she could cover her face, and said, "What are you going to do, whether it's Sheng Siming or Pang Lan, don't you all have to go back to different places? The princess is going back to meet her family, what do you do?" lively?"

King Rong was not happy, "The queen mother, Sheng Siming and Pang Lan have not come back. They are all in the Duke of Qi's mansion. Of course I want to go and have a look."

Su Xinyi was taken aback, "In the Qi State Duke's Mansion?"

Seeing that Su Xinyi didn't know yet, King Rong asked in surprise, "You don't know yet? That very powerful assassin under your command, the one you dug the corner of Marud's wall, got injured, what's his name..."

"Mu Xing?"

"Ah, yes, it's him. It's because he was injured. They are all over there. I didn't think you knew it, so I wanted to go back with you." King Rong was also a little surprised and Su Xinyi If you don't know something, your tail will be raised, "Walk around, go back and have a look, Mu Xing is quite capable, and I don't know why he was injured this time."

The queen looked at her son's complacent look, and she was ashamed. It's no wonder that Su Xinyi took care of him at the beginning. With his tail in the sky, anyone who saw him wanted to take care of him.

Su Xinyi said casually: "Zhanqiao was sent back to the Duke's mansion by me to wait for the news. I came here to ask for the imperial edict with my mother. It must have been wrong with me."

"Then let's go quickly." King Rong couldn't wait.

Su Xinyi was also a little anxious, so she got up and looked at the queen, "Mother, my daughter-in-law and seventh brother go back and have a look first, I will send someone to send a message to His Royal Highness, don't worry."

The queen knew that Su Xinyi was thoughtful, so she told her, "You will definitely be found out when you go out of the palace with King Rong. How about this? I will let Mother Zhao follow you, so that no one will talk nonsense."

King Rong wanted to say no, but Su Xinyi immediately agreed, "Thank you, Queen Mother."

The Queen asked Nanny Zhao to come over, and said: "You send the man to Duke Qi's mansion and come back."

This is the meaning of not leaving Zhao Mama in Duke Qi's mansion to inquire about the news. Su Xinyi was quite surprised. She didn't expect the queen to be so clear-cut, and she couldn't care less about what to say right now. She thanked the queen again and took Zhao mama with Rong Wang. leave.

On the way, Su Xinyi asked Lianqiao to go back to the East Palace to deliver a letter to His Highness the Prince, leaving Mammy She and Delphinium to go back with her.

King Rong was alone, only when he was outside the palace, his guards followed, and the carriage from the East Palace also rushed over at this time, Su Xinyi got on the carriage, King Rong rode his horse, and the two went directly to the Duke of Qi's mansion.

Although Su Xinyi tried his best to keep a low profile, many people saw it on the way out of the palace, so the news could not be hidden.

It didn't take long for Hu Siyi to get the news. At this time, the crown prince was still in the Zichen Palace, and His Majesty was summoning Su Yi. After thinking about it, he went in to report.

Hu Siyi sent the little servant who had come forward to report back to leave, and he gently pushed open the door of the main hall and walked in quietly.

Not only Su Yi was in the hall, but also Chen Boyan was also there. His Highness the Crown Prince was standing aside, His Majesty was sitting on the throne with a cold look on his face, and the atmosphere in the hall was a bit oppressive.

Hu Siyi took a deep breath, stepped forward in small steps, walked to His Majesty's side, bent down and replied softly: "Your Majesty, the crown prince and His Royal Highness Rong have gone to Duke Qi's mansion."

The emperor was taken aback for a while, and without turning the corner, he opened his mouth and asked, "Prince Rong followed the princess to Duke Qi's mansion? What's going on?"

Even if they go back, the prince has to go back with him, so why does the king join in the fun.

His Majesty's voice was not low, and Yan Jun heard clearly at the beginning, so he slightly raised his head, looked at His Majesty and replied: "Father, Su Deng from the caravan is also returning to Beijing today. The Crown Princess should go back because of this matter. As for the seventh brother, he may be going to join in the fun."

The emperor's complexion was not good, and he hummed, "I don't know who to follow with this temper, and he will run wherever there is excitement. In my opinion, he can't be left idle. You can find something for him to do later."

Yan Junchu naturally responded, and said with a smile, "Father, the seventh younger brother is always casual, and he is also familiar with the people in Duke Qi's mansion, so it doesn't hurt to just go and have a look."

"Familiar?" The emperor didn't think so, even if it was familiar, it should be the familiarity given by Su Xinyi.

Thinking of this, the emperor looked at the prince, "The people from the caravan returned to Beijing today?"

The crown prince nodded, "I just got the news, but my father is still asking about the granary, so I haven't responded yet."

The emperor nodded slightly, "Sheng Siming who is beside King Rong and Pang Lan who is beside you are also back?"

"Yes."

"Let's listen to the announcement tomorrow." The emperor really didn't have time to see them today. The matter of the granary was obviously worse than the emperor expected. The evidence brought back by Su Yi and his party was shocking. He couldn't believe it at all. Jiukong, it was not mentioned in the booklet sent back by the officials sent by the imperial court.

So far, how can the emperor not be angry?
This further shows that some people in the DPRK and the local officials colluded in private, otherwise how could they be so bold.

The emperor coughed angrily, Hu Siyi hurriedly took the veil and handed it to His Majesty, when His Majesty finished coughing, he took the veil and looked at the red blood on the veil, his face turned pale.
