Zhong Xiao: "You and I are close to each other and we are husband and wife. If my father and I go to ask for a decree, I believe he will not disagree."
Su Yangyang blushed and understood what the other party meant.
There was no other way to go, so she bit her lip and nodded.
She carefully covered the marks on her neck with a silk scarf, and then slowly undressed and took off her belt.
Shen Zhongxiao had limited legs and feet, so she had to take the initiative.
After Su Yangyang finished taking a shower, she looked at the man she had entrusted with her life with timid eyes.
At this time, someone came outside to report, and it seemed that there was something important.
In the past, Zhongxiao would have avoided her to talk about business.
But now that they are married, they are naturally different.
When the subordinate who came to report saw a third person present, he hesitated for a moment and then said calmly: "Your Highness, the third prince of Li Kingdom and his bodyguard were killed."
Zhong Xiao suspected that he had heard wrongly. How could such a difficult person die?
Su Yangyang also looked surprised. That person died like that?
Why not die sooner rather than later, but at this time?
With everything in chaos now, how could King Xin ask for an order to make her his concubine?

Chapter 65
◎You don’t believe my brother? ◎
As soon as King Xin learned about this, people came to the palace over there.
It is said that Emperor Zhou sent a group of ministers into the palace to discuss the matter, including the two princes, the prince and King Xin.
The matter is urgent and I can't wait until tomorrow to go to court.
This matter has already made a big fuss, and it is impossible to suppress it. Emperor Zhou's usual approach of keeping things quiet didn't work this time.
The maid Bai Cui was summoned to come in and help Zhong Xiao change clothes.
Su Yangyang looked at him with worry.
Not worried about him, but worried about myself. With so many things happening right now, what should we do about her being included in the palace?
She originally thought that as long as Zhong Xiao paid enough attention to her entry, others would see the difference between her and ordinary concubines.
Know she is loved.
Under that expediency, it is acceptable for the time being.
But now... we can only postpone it later.
Zhongxiao turned his head and patted Su Yangyang's face reassuringly: "I'll be back as soon as I go. You wait for me in the house. It's a mess outside, so don't run around for the time being."
"I know, I will wait for you at home." Su Yangyang looked tender and sweet.
King Xin then ordered the first-class maids Bai Cui and Ji Qin in his courtyard, saying: "Take out the Qingyuan Terrace and give it to Miss Su. She will also be your master from now on."
The two maids said yes and were busy helping people pack things.
It seems that after today, it is confirmed that King Xin will take Miss Su as his concubine.
Su Yangyang looked at these two beautiful maids and couldn't help but murmur in her heart, although the first-class maids should be dressed better, they are too showy.
I don't know, I thought it was my aunt.
These two beautiful maids hang out in front of Shen Chongxiao all day long, so why not send them to work outside.
The experience of two lifetimes told him that good men must be snatched, and once you snatch them, you must be wary of other women.
She doesn't have much anymore, so she needs to hold on to what's left.
Su Yangyang's voice was gentle: "Bai Cui, Ji Qin, I think you are also very capable. I am going to start reopening the medical clinic and then send you to take charge of the medical clinic. This can be considered a good future."
Bai Cui and Ji Qin looked at each other, but neither one answered.
This is the person who is most important to their master, and they have used all their patience to serve her.
But why are you still not satisfied? Thinking of driving them away.
After all, generally speaking, it is better to be a first-class maid in Prince Xin's Mansion than to make a public appearance.
Moreover, they had been with King Xin for many years. In addition to serving him daily, they were also his maidservants. They all came from innocent families, and they thought that in the future, His Highness King Xin would be able to make them his concubines after he married his first wife.
"I appreciate Miss Su's kindness, but I'm used to serving King Xin, so I'm afraid I'm not up to the task. You'd better find someone else." Bai Cui declined with a smile.
Ji Qin: "This is exactly the reason. When the time comes, it will not be a good thing for us to be clumsy and mess up the girl's affairs."
Su Yangyang looked a little ugly when she saw the two people refusing in a roundabout way, but she didn't say anything.
He murmured in his heart why he should discuss it with them. If he really felt wronged by going to the medical clinic, he could also be sent to Zhuangzi outside the city to do work.
Serving Zhongxiao closely every day, how could it be that his hands and feet were really clumsy, but it was precisely serving Zhongxiao every day that made them have the wrong idea.
—
When Zhong Xiao arrived, the imperial study room was already full of people.
Even the prince has arrived.
The prince's health is not good, and the end of the confinement is rarely seen.
After all, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the emperor to let a prince with physical problems serve as the heir apparent.
The prince also knew that he would be deposed sooner or later, so he felt quite at ease.
But he was only calm on the surface. After being the prince for so many years, how could he bear to lose when he was only one step away from that position.
If all the other sons of his father died, he would be the only prince left. Even if there are some shortcomings, the throne must still be his.
Maybe we can take advantage of this incident to bring down King Xin.
All the ministers in the imperial study were silent and made many mistakes. No one wanted to be implicated in this matter.
The people named by Emperor Zhou also said ambiguous things.
He only said how urgent the situation was and asked them to come up with an idea, but they all avoided talking about it.
Emperor Zhou sighed in his heart. If Liang Jing'an were here, he would definitely analyze it with his heart.
It's a pity that he is stationed in the south at this time, and war is about to break out, and he can't call people back.
Xiao Chunhe muttered: "I'm afraid that the people from Li who went back to report the news are already halfway there, and even if we stop them for a while, it will be useless. I am willing to go to the border of the two countries to deal with this matter as a personal envoy for the peace talks."
Emperor Zhou thought for a while and decided to send someone to explain.
Xiao Chunhe was also a good candidate, so he nodded in agreement.
"Be careful, and remember to discuss everything with Liang Jing'an."
"I know this, so please ask Your Majesty to prepare a decree immediately. This matter should be done sooner rather than later. I will leave the palace and set off immediately."
Xiao Chunhe returned to his house with the imperial edict.
Wan Yan has been waiting for a long time. After she arrived in the capital, she was afraid of attracting too much attention, so she stayed in the Xiao Mansion.
If it hadn't been like this, she would have captured Su Yangyang and burned incense and prayed in front of her son every day.
His son came to the capital just because of that woman. It had only been so long, but she didn't feel sad at all.
During the Four Kings Rebellion, Wan Yan's family was on the wrong side, and both her father and brother died.
She took the opportunity to escape and was rescued by Xiao Chunhe. The two had an affair and she was pregnant with a child.
After learning that Emperor Zhou had granted marriage to Xiao Chunhe and Cui Weiran, she left quietly.
At that time, the Wan family was the defender of the city, and the generals attacking the city were Cui Weiran's father and brother.
Most of her family died in the siege.
Although Xiao Chunhe had been persuading her in the past, the Cui family also accepted the emperor's order. Even if it's not the Cui family, someone else will attack.
But so what, the Cui family has a blood feud with her.
However, Xiao Chunhe no longer persuades him. After all, he had high hopes, and the son they had high hopes for was gone.
The Cui family also broke up with the Xiao family.
Xiao Chunhe always said in the past that the emperor's brother-in-law was kind to him and he did not want to betray the emperor's favor. Since the death of his son, he has stopped saying so.
The two people's current goal is to avenge their son.
Even if it drags everyone down.
Xiao Chunhe changed his riding clothes and said solemnly: "Don't worry, as long as I go to the south, there will be no way for Liang Jingan to survive."
His daughter was infinitely glorious, but his son's body was never found. Why?
Xiao Chunhe and Liang Jing'an were not at odds with each other before, but now that his son's life was between them, he was destined to live forever.
Even Emperor Zhou, who was partial to Liang Jing'an, was also resented by him.
Emperor Zhou had wishful thinking that after having a heart-to-heart talk with him several times, he would reward him with something. Let this matter be over.
He died as his only son, the only son he had with his beloved, how could he survive.
Wan Yan: "I believe you, and you should also pay attention to safety."
"I will."
Watching Xiao Chunhe leave, Wan Yan sneered in her heart.
