Su Shaoge mildly said, âOf course itâs useful when your father gifted the dark guards to Gu Shao, although it wasnât announced to the public, my Su family heard about it.â
He paused here, giving Song Yixiao a moment to think, before continuing, âSo if there is a âFollow the Windâ out there right now, itâs always easier to do the aftermath, I donât know what Grandma thinks?â
Song Yixiao stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and mused.
She understands the meaning of Su Shaogeâs words, the socalled âI have heard of the Su familyâ, meaning that they have the evidence of Song Yuan to Gu Shaoâs gift of secret guards, then this interception of He Wenqiong, as long as the âwith the windâ is involved, regardless of whether the order comes from the Song Yixiao or Gu Shao, will be credited to Gu Shaoâs head in the end! The final result will be put on Gu Shaoâs head!
So if you hold Gu Shaoâs handle, you can coerce Gu Shao to help the aftermath then the aftermath will naturally be convenient.
âItâs said that after the assassination of His Highness the Crown Prince, Gu Shao has been feeling guilty to this day?â A short while later, Song Yixiao weighed her words and said, âIn addition, the forbidden army has been presided over by He Wenqiong for the past two years, so if he has a shortcoming, are you sure that the imperial capital will not be in a state of chaos?â
What if someone else He Wenqiongâs generals look at their superiorâs death, and simply kill into the Su Wang House and Jihou House to take revenge for He Wenqiong, and incidentally, how to embrace King Liang to ascend to the throne?
âGu Shao is no longer guilty towards the Crown Prince, but how could he possibly let go of the Hongzhou Gu Clanâs legacy?â Su Shaoge gave a light laugh and said, âGrandma didnât grow up in the Song family, so she may not be too aware of the importance that the children of the worldâs families place on the familyâs legacy. This is also because your father has disregarded the ancestral rules in many places, in fact, like Gu Shaoâs origin, that was taught from a young age to revitalize the Hongzhou Gu Clan as their own responsibility! Decades of teaching, bloodline relatives, the righteousness of the same clan, parents of the hope, children and grandchildren of the dependence ⦠you say how many people in the world can put down, just for a with him less than five years with the Prince?â
Song Yixiao mused, âWhat about He Wenqiong? To kill him while heâs only out of the palace, even if itâs likely to succeed, it may not be a good thing for the ⦠group of dragons to be leaderless, right?â
He Wenqiong lives, and his attitude is the attitude of the forbidden army.
If he dies, who knows who will be in charge at this juncture?
Or who knows how many will come out of the woodwork to be in charge?
By then the situation will be more and more chaotic Iâm afraid that the families of public officials will also have to sleep uneasily!
Song Yixiao now has three underage children at her knees, and she is also pregnant, so of course she hopes that the battle for the throne can be carried out in a smooth environment, instead of listening to the sound of swords and guns fighting and killing all day long to sleep.
âHe Wenqiong has our people under his hand.â Now, Su Shaoge canât hide anything, and after a little thought, he revealed his bottom card, âThatâs the manpower that my grandfather arranged when he was here, and the late emperor never contacted him when he was here, so he can lurk to this day! But in order not to arouse suspicion, he has never grabbed power with He Wenqiong, and usually doesnât show his head when things go wrong so if He Wenqiong is still alive, he canât do anything except occasionally pass on some important news.â
âBut if Ho Man Kiong dies â¦â
Song Yixiao frowned, âHow? Can he bring the forbidden army back together and listen to your command?â
âGathering them all together is impossible.â Su Shaoge calmly said, âBut with everyone else unprepared, thereâs no problem with him taking the lead in reuniting the forbidden troops inside and outside the imperial capital and commanding them to get through tonight!â
âTonight?â Song Yi smiled and hummed, âIf thatâs true, what can the forbidden army do after tonight?â
She looked at Su Shaoge with a complicated gaze, âThe Su family has these many cards, I really donât know what the second prince still keeps having to be polite to our Marquis Yan for?â
âGrandma misunderstood, by now, my Su family has also given everything they have!â Su Shaoge returned a calm gaze and said lightly, âThe world thinks that ever since King Su landed on the ground, my Su family has been planning the path to the throne for him but in reality, as early as Emperor Huizongâs time, when my grandfather, the old Duke of Jiguo, decided to betroth my aunt to the late Emperor, he had already been making preparations for the Su family to produce a Mother Queen cum Holy Mother Empress Dowager!â
âOtherwise I Qingzhou Su even in the Great Rui founding of the country, but also the real power in the power of the nobility, my aunt and my fatherâs generation is the only first daughter, how many royals and kings, nobles and famous families, want to seek but can not! How could she be promised to the former emperor who was in a state of decline at that time?â
âDoes Grandmother think that His Majesty, Emperor Huizong, will marry my aunt for the late Emperor?â
âOr do you think that Noble Consort Shentu and Lady Zhenyuan would want to see the late Emperor marry my aunt? They couldnât even wait for their own sons to marry my aunt!â
âThe Dowager Empress did want to be kind to the late Emperor out of her heart, but she was so overwhelmed by Noble Consort Shentu and Lady Zhenyuan that she could not breathe, and it was a luxury to protect her own sons and daughters, so how could she still have the strength to plan for the late Emperor to marry the daughter of a powerful nobleman with a deep heritage?â
Su Shaoge faintly said, âIt was my grandfather, the old Duke of Ji, who took a liking to the late Emperor and married my aunt to him against the resistance of His Majesty Emperor Huizong, Noble Consort Shentu, Lady Zhenyuanall those who didnât want the Dowager Empress and the late Emperor to gain power!â
âAfterwards, it was also under my grandfatherâs support and careful teaching that the late emperor was able to rise quickly and gain the recognition of many founding . . honors, thus qualifying him to compete for the throne!â
âThe Dowager Empress, as the wife of His Majesty Emperor Huizong, could not even save the life of her own daughter, let alone teach the late Emperor, who was a resolute killer and a deep city man?!â
âThe late emperor, in fact, was cultivated by my grandfather, the old Duke of Ji!!!â
âOtherwise at that time, His Majesty Emperor Huizong had more than twenty imperial sons at his knee, and thatâs not counting the ones who died at an early age or in battle. Does Grandmother really think that there are no talents within that are better than the late Emperor, or good enough to match the late Emperorâs excellence?!â
âWhy was it the late emperor who won?â
âThe world says itâs because the late emperor was born of the rightful palace and was destined by heaven, and that the late emperor was wise and powerful and was born to be extraordinaryâ
When he said here, there was a moment of silence, and an extremely complicated sorrow swept across his brows, before he slowly said, âNo one knows how much I, the Su Clan of Qingzhou, have paid for this!â
âThe late emperor knew that my Su family was intent on helping King Su ascend to the throne, and for that reason did many things to design the royal family, yet he repeatedly showed mercy, do you think it was just because the late emperor was magnanimous?!â
âItâs because of the help that my Su family has given him, the sacrifices that have been made on his behalf, that even he, a man who can slaughter his hands and feet without hesitation, canât help but hesitate!â
Su Shaoge turned his head, his eyes flashing with a coldness Song Yixiao had never seen before, he said word by word, âThat seat, should have belonged to my Su familyâs grandson!â
âJust as the late emperor broke his word to Old Lady Duanmu back then, he broke his word to our Su family!â
âNow that Jane Ping Yu and Jane Li Kuang and Jane Yiyu are all dead, and the fact that the former emperorâs concubines gave birth to King Qing for His Majesty today and are still credited to the former emperorâs name is well known to all Old Lady Duanmu has gotten her wish, and now itâs time for our Su family to get our own back, isnât it?!â
Song Yixiao was silent for a long time, and raised his voice to call in the bell, âGo to my room and bring that token!â
She gazed at Su Shaoge, âWe also agree with King Su ascending to the throne, after all, Princess Su, is my little aunt who I look at as my sister.â
âNaturally.â Su Shaoge also looked at her, but in an instant he recovered his gentle elegance, he said in a pleasant manner, âWe are allies and relatives Princess Su and King Su are in love with each other, and in the future, they should be in the center of the palace, and be the mother of the world for the Crown Princeâs birth mother!â
After a pause, âbefore in order to avoid peopleâs ears, our two families do not interact much, so there is one thing, earlier I forgot to tell you my sister ShaoMo, has agreed to marry someone. Just fatherâs filial piety is not yet complete, now it is not appropriate to spread the word, but also hope that grandma knows just good, do not make a noise.â
This was a polite way of telling Song Yixiao that the Su family had no intention of allowing King Su to abandon his married wife, Nie Maizuo Cherry, and marry his cousin, Su Shaomo, after he ascended the throne.
The reason why the Marquis of Yan supports the Su Wang is precisely because the Su Wangfei is the child that the Grand Princess of Jin is most attached to.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Jian Xu Bai were afraid that the Grand Princess of Jin would not be able to accept the bad news that her daughter had been implicated by her husband.
Now that Su Shaoge explicitly said that Nie Maozuo will definitely be âthe mother of the world, for the Crown Princeâs birth motherâ, Song Yixiaoâs face eased down, and took the token from the bell that had already come back to resume orders, and handed it over to Su Shaoge with both hands, âI wish the second prince all the best for his trip!â
âBorrow grandmotherâs good advice!â Su Shaoge stood up and also received the token with both hands, saying solemnly, âI will live up to grandmotherâs expectations!â
After he left in a hurry, Song Yixiao did not leave the flower hall for a while, only holding the tea bowl that was already a bit cold, lost in thought.
Bell only thought that she was worried about tonightâs action, and comforted her âGrandma, please donât worry! He Wenqiong said he wanted to see the Empress, and Mr. Su immediately came to us, so it is clear that the Su family is still the most powerful family in terms of power! If we can count on them, how can the Wei family be a match? Not to mention that He Wenqiong!â
âSu family in order to that seat, even from the founding of the country soon began to plan, Wei family out of the Crown Princess only a few years?â Song Yixiao put down the tea bowl, cold smile, said, âAfter all, Su dowager is the old Jiguo Princess move promised to the late emperor, now that the Wei Empress, but the late emperor to his majestyâs choice Wei family before and did not know that their own family will become a descendant, can not still make preparations in advance? This above mind lags behind the Su family for decades, even if the two families originally have similar heritage, the Wei family canât fight the Su family is also natural!â
Bell was surprised, âIf Grandmother is not worried that the Su Family will lose, why is she not happy but worried?â
âI was thinking about what Su Shaoge said just now.â Song Yixiao said with some mirth, âHe said that the Su family has actually been preparing since the time of old Duke Jiguo in order to produce an emperorâs grandsonwhat do you think he meant by telling me this?â
Seeing that Suzu did not understand, she exhaled and smiled coldly, âHe is politely warning me, no, I should say warning husband! The Su family has made preparations for nearly fifty years in order to support King Suâs ascension to the throne, leaving behind an unknown number of backhanders and paying an incalculable price, so they will absolutely not allow anyone to touch their interests!â
âHeâs hammering our Marquis Yan, even if King Su has ascended to the throne, donât presume on those that shouldnât be thought ofotherwise, if they can fight the Wei family down, why wouldnât they be able to deal with our Marquis Yan?!â
âGrandmother is saying that his guarantee that Princess Su would be able to be queen on the spot was a lie?â Bellâs face changed at his words!
Song Yi smiled and said, âThis may not be! My sisterinlaw should be said to be their most desired candidate for the queen, nothing scheming, good coaxing, good control, her motherâs family also has little power, but also to the Kingâs favorite although we, the eldest sister, the second brother and sisterinlaw called her a âfifth sisterâ, but honestly, including the husband, in fact, for her birth is a bit disconnected. husband, in fact, for her life are a bit disconnected. The reason why she was always favored and let her go in the past, apart from the love of flesh and blood, is probably because of the face of her second aunt!â
âIf anything happens to Second Auntie, this love will have to fade!â
âSo that in the future, even if fifth sister gives birth to a son, and the son becomes the crown prince, then there wonât be a powerful descendant clan to compete with the Su family!â
âThe Su family has worked hard for decades, three generations of heart and soul, with the goal of having their grandson be the emperor do you think theyâd want to get an empress from a prestigious family out there to make them fuck around again? Donât be ridiculous!â
âBut Marquis and Grandma did all this for His Highness King Suâs ascension to the throne, itâs not possible to get nothing, right?â Bell said with great reluctance.
âRemnants of soup is just water!â Song Yi smiled and waved his hand, his face ugly, âIâm more worried about another thing now if it wasnât for the accident of Changxingâs death today, do you think Su Zhirong, he would have told me that the assassin of King Xiang was âSui Fengâ who was ordered by Gu Shao?â
Although Su Shaoge claimed that he had only recently learned about it, Song Yixiao wouldnât believe it!
She suspected that, in fact, the Su family had long known this, the reason why they had not been talking to Mr. and Mrs. Jian Xubai, in addition to saving it for later use to govern Marquis Yan, what else could be the reason?
There is one, there are two, these two years, the Su family in the Su Wang planning for the throne at the same time, exactly how many traps set for the Yan Marquis House, how many handles caught?
Song Yixiao felt shaky just thinking about it!
Only at this moment did she truly understand what it meant to have the depth and forethought of a prestigious family!
This kind of pressure could be said to come in abundance, like a mountain!
