Chapter 145 Countermeasures
outside the palace.

In the study room, after the Seventh Prince saw off the messenger, his expression darkened.

Serving a cup of hot tea, he carefully stepped aside, but was still asked by the Seventh Prince.

"Zhao Zhong, why do you think Concubine Xian has such big thoughts? It hasn't been long since Prince Chen resigned from the position of prince, and her hidden ambitions have been revealed."

"Members of the royal family, King Jin's voice in the court is extremely high now. The concubine Xian has been attached to the queen for many years. Now that she can turn around, how can she not be moved?" Zhao Zhong said in a low voice.

The Seventh Prince sneered, turning the jade finger in his hand, his eyes darkened.

"She has planned well for King Jin. The Su family, what a family. The queen also wants Su to be my side concubine."

The main wife, of course, is Xu Sini.

The Seventh Prince didn't want to mention this matter, but he had to agree, after all, he was now on the same front as the Queen.

The queen has no son to fight for the throne, but he does not have the support of his mother's family to win the heir apparent. The cooperation between the two is just right.

Zhao Zhong bowed his head, "Now that the concubine Xian is taking the initiative, and the emperor has already acquiesced, His Highness wants to take Miss Su Si as his concubine. I'm afraid it won't happen."

"I can't get help from the Su family, and neither can King Jin." The Seventh Prince showed a stern look on his face.

Zhao Zhong's heart tightened, "Think twice, Your Highness, the Su family can't be easily offended."

Unexpectedly, when he said this, the Seventh Prince laughed lightly instead.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip before continuing.

"Where are you going? Of course, I can't offend the Su family at will. It's just that Miss Su is such a good woman. Naturally, many people like it. I have such a good relationship with Qianwei. How can I just look at the one I love in his heart?" It was taken away by others."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhong immediately smiled and cupped his hands.

"Your Highness values ​​love and righteousness. Mr. Shen and Miss Su Fourth are in love with each other. Concubine Xian and King Jin really shouldn't break up a good couple. Mr. Shen and His Highness are on good terms again. The Su family and the Shen family have become in-laws. It will be a help to His Highness."

"Okay, let's do it when you know it." The Seventh Prince whispered.

Zhao Zhong responded and stepped back quickly.

Half an hour later, Shen Qianwei, who was working in the yamen, learned about this, and his face immediately became gloomy.

"Zheng Han!"

"Hey!"

"I'm going out for a while, you stand here."

"Huh? Where are you going, boss?"

"Don't worry about it, I'll be back soon."

Under Zheng Han's suspicious eyes, Shen Qianwei left the military office.

Thinking of Shen Qianwei's gloomy face just now, Zheng Han remembered that a cousin came to Miss Su's house last time, the boss is like this, could it be that another cousin came this time?
"Tsk, there are so many cousins." Zheng Han smacked his lips.

Turning around, she swaggered towards Shen Qianwei's seat and sat down.

But what he didn't know was that this time Shen Qianwei's mood was much heavier than meeting any cousin.

After all, what he had to face was the prince of the royal family, and it was something that Emperor Jianning basically agreed to.

Su House.

Hearing the word from the gatekeeper's mother-in-law that Mrs. Shen is coming outside and wants to see her, Su Junning is very strange.

Didn't you just meet her two days ago? Why did you come again, and you still asked her directly to see her.

Although Shen Qianwei is indeed a straightforward person who is not afraid of anything, but today is not Xiu Mu, and it is not a convenient time to visit as it is approaching lunch, so after a little thought, Su Junning guessed that there might be something important about his coming The matter must be said at this moment.

So after dismissing the messenger, he quickly went to the front hall.

As soon as we met, we saw that Shen Qianwei's expression was a little dignified.

Su Junning immediately dismissed the servants around her, leaving only Nan Xu to wait on her.

"What's the matter, you come here in a hurry."

"Just now I got the news from the Seventh Prince that Concubine Xian is choosing a concubine for King Jin, and she has taken a fancy to you. She has already informed the emperor, and the emperor has already agreed. I will tell the queen about the matter today, and I am afraid it will be done in the next year."

Shen Qianwei didn't go around the bush, and just told the story directly.

After listening, Su Junning felt as if struck by lightning.

After a long pause, he opened his mouth.

"Concubine Xian, you have taken a fancy to me, and you want to be King Jin's concubine?!"

"Well, but it hasn't been announced to the outside world yet, not many people should know about it." Shen Qianwei said in a deep voice.

Su Junning only felt that her heart was stuffy, she took two steps back, and sat down on the chair with a dignified expression, holding Nan Xu's hand.

"It's true, what you want is out of reach, and what you don't want, just hits your head."

Shen Qianwei frowned, "What did you say?"

"I said Su Zhiyi, she has a crush on King Jin." Su Junning waved her hands irritably.

After hearing this, Shen Qianwei's expression changed.

"She's already engaged to Yuan Che."

"What? Only Xu Yuanche is allowed to like Qin Wan, but my second sister is not allowed to like King Jin?" Su Jun gave him a blank look, then stomped her feet, "You're talking about me, and talking about others, is your news accurate?"

Shen Qianwei nodded.

"What the Seventh Prince told me should not be false."

Finally, he asked again, "What are you going to do?"

Su Junning frowned, "I have to tell my parents about this, and I need to try to find out the truth."

She didn't want to marry King Jin and compete with a group of women for men in the backyard of the palace.

And from the current point of view, King Jin is very likely to be the successor to the crown prince. When he ascends the throne in the future, there will be more troubles in the harem. If he falls into it, it will be difficult to have a happy life at all.

After listening to Su Junning's words, Shen Qianwei also nodded slightly.

"Well, it's true that you can't just listen to one person, but if this matter is true, what should you do?"

"I just said that I have a hidden disease and I can't have children. The royal family's marriage is considered to be a distraction. He can't take a woman who can't have children as his first wife." Su Junning said angrily.

Shen Qianwei glanced at her, "You want to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

"Then what do you say?" Su Junning was so irritable that she died.

Unexpectedly, Shen Qianwei immediately replied in a deep voice.

"Betrothed to me, the betrothed woman, even the royal family, cannot marry by force."

Su Junning was momentarily stunned by what he said.

Then Shen Qianwei continued to add a sentence.

"It's just an engagement. If you think I'm not good in the future, just call off the engagement. It's better than marrying King Jin."

It is indeed.

Su Junning thought silently.

But he didn't agree immediately, he only said after thinking for a moment.

"You go back first, I know about this, but you have to tell my parents first, if it is really necessary, I will send someone to pass the message to you."

This is a big matter, no matter how reckless Shen Qianwei is, she also knows that Su Junning is not the one who can make the decision, so after agreeing, she left.

On Su Junning's side, after thinking about it all afternoon, when Su Yi returned home in the evening, he went there and told Su Yi and Cui Shi about this matter.

Sure enough, after hearing the news, both of them changed their faces.

But Su Yi is a man who has been an official for many years, cautious and calm.

After a moment of silence, he spoke.

"Just pretend you don't know about this matter, and I will try to find out the facts before you deal with it."
