The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 1238 Respective Reactions

Shu was almost so angry that she fainted.

She finally convinced the Crown Prince Sheng Xin with the reason that "You have the advantage but don't take it, how can you protect the Queen in the future?" But when she turned around, the nursing home called people over, and in just a moment, her efforts went to waste. It was so infuriating and hateful!
But Sheng Xin, who had just returned from the nursing home, seemed relieved. Not only did he remain indifferent to her arguments, he even restricted her from leaving the house!

After a long argument, this person finally told them about their family's plan, and it turned out that they were planning to adopt the child to the queen!
Sheng Xin said it nicely, but in the end, he was still going to give her son to someone else!
Her son acknowledged the queen as his mother, so is he still her child? !

It turns out that the Sheng family serves as loyal ministers and good generals, they are the invisible royal family, and they protect the honorable position of the queen. The only one who has to make sacrifices is her, an outsider!
"The Sheng family wants every bit of fame and profit, but they use my child as a favor! This is really a worthless business!" Shu was so angry that her eyes went dark. She felt like she was suffocating and wanted to fight with the Sheng family.

Yun Jing was shocked when he heard this, and quickly asked the maids to leave. He hurried forward and said, "Madam, please, keep your voice down! You can't say such things casually!"

Although everyone has started making preparations since the Crown Princess disappeared, they were all done in secret. Who would dare to plan openly?

"Why should I keep my voice down? They didn't even ask me, and they made arrangements to use my child as a bargaining chip. What do they think of me? Since they don't regard me as a member of the Sheng family, why should I take care of them?"

"Madam, please don't be anxious! Please listen to what I have to say!" Yun Jing squatted beside the couch, wiping the tears of Shu who was crying on the couch, and comforted her with gentle words, "I know you are very sad now, but no matter how sad you are, we have to think about the good side.

Yes, in the current situation, if we follow precedent, it will definitely be beneficial to the prince and you, but the problem is that it also requires the emperor's approval!
After all, to be precise, not everyone can make the same decision as Emperor Chen Mo, and the reason why he was able to burn his boats was that he had no way out.

Although the crown prince has been lost, there may be other options. In this case, even if it is you, are you willing to give your kingdom to others?"

Yun Jing poured tea for Shu, soaked a towel with hot water, and handed it to her in batches: "Let alone such a huge kingdom, even if it's just an ordinary shop, we are not willing to give it away for free."

Perhaps it was the faint scent of tea that soothed Shu's emotions, perhaps it was the warm handkerchief that gradually calmed her down, or perhaps it was because she had just cried so hard that although Shu occasionally sobbed at this moment, her emotions gradually stabilized.

"What you said sounded nice, but in the end you are just teaching me to be tolerant!"

Shu's words were complaints, but her tone was much softer.

Yun Jing saw the opportunity and hurriedly said, "Let me say something discouraging. If the emperor is unwilling to repeat the choice of Yan and Chen, even the Shengguo Mansion can't do anything! You can't force it on yourself! Wouldn't that make you a traitor?!"

"I just told him to fight for it! I didn't instigate him to rebel!" Thinking about the throne that she had obtained, Shu felt more and more aggrieved. "It was not my design that the descendants of the clan who were qualified to inherit the country disappeared, and it was not my arrangement that the princess disappeared. The current situation is repeating history step by step. Was this my plan? This moment is just like that time and that moment. The best arrangement is to follow the previous example. This is good for everyone!"

"But the current emperor is not the last emperor of Chen!" Yun Jing sighed softly, "Different people may not make the same choices when faced with the same problem... This is what you taught me before I got married."

"..." Shu was stunned and didn't say anything.

Yun Jing sighed softly, and then continued to persuade: "You once taught me that if something fails, we should consider the worst case scenario and deal with it... We naturally think that the best way is to repeat the precedent, but for the emperor and empress, adopting an heir is the best way.

If this is true, then letting the future crown prince come from Yongxing Marquis Mansion is also the best choice for you."

"..." Shu pursed her lips. Although she still said nothing, the resistance on her face was much less.

Yun Jing breathed a sigh of relief: "I know that the two gentlemen are your own flesh and blood. Taking either of them away would be like cutting off your flesh... But the ancients said it well, 'Parents who love their children plan for them far-reachingly'. If one of the two gentlemen really has great fortune, wouldn't it be great for him, you, and the other one?" "I just can't bear to do that." Shu's eyes turned red again after she said a few words.

Yun Jing sighed and said, "Madam, don't forget that even Yun Ge'er has passed the age of enlightenment! Our youngest son can remember things, so why should you be afraid? No matter which son is adopted, will he forget who gave birth to him and who his siblings are?

When that time comes, Madam, you don't have to be anxious. You just need to take good care of yourself and wait for your husband to take the real power. You will see who the uncrowned queen mother will send next. I'm afraid that everyone in the palace will give you some respect! This way, those who are unwilling to work hard and just wait to take advantage of the situation will not be able to benefit from it!"

When Shu heard the last part, her silent eyes suddenly flickered.

……

"This Marquis is truly convinced!" An Yu felt completely numb after receiving the invitation from the third group of people.

He originally thought that the plan of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was outrageous enough, but he didn't expect that since he went to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, it was as if an inexplicable mechanism was opened. After only half a day, court officials came to him one after another to have a drink and chat.

He didn't even know many of them!

"Has this been discussed in advance? Or are they using me as a cover for someone else?"

For the first time, An Yu realized the appeal of "following the dragon's merit".

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Unfortunately, he doesn't want people to obey!
"Cheng You! Cheng You! Go find Xiao Yao and ask her to stay here. My Lord, I'm going to look for my wife!"

……

Sheng Yuan had just made arrangements for several deputy governors and returned to the office after the meeting when he saw An Yu turning his head away with a look of grievance on his face.

“???” Sheng Yuan was startled.

"Why are you here if you're not helping me keep an eye on the Ministry of Revenue?"

Just as An Yu was about to complain, he saw someone walking outside the door out of the corner of his eye. He immediately changed his pitiful look, took Sheng Yuan's hand and walked behind the screen.

"Sister Yuan, let me tell you..." Without waiting to sit down, An Yu leaned close to Sheng Yuan's face and whispered to her indignantly.

"!!!" Sheng Yuan listened and suddenly realized a problem that she had previously overlooked.

Who said that the officials and nobles of the Great Chu should follow the precedents of the Yan and Chen dynasties? ! ! !

Now the Sheng family and the Anguo Mansion are both in the open, but are these two the only ones interested in vying for the seal?
