After the prince enters the play

Chapter 472: 473: The Jedi Strikes Back

Su Xinyi saw his eldest brother coming in, got up and walked over, and said, "Brother, why are you here at this time? Is there something going on at home?"

Su Yi stepped forward to salute, "I have seen the princess."

Su Xinyi was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that it was no more casual in the East Palace than in the Duke's Mansion. She asked her brother to sit down, but for a while she didn't know how to speak.

Su Yi looked at his younger sister, and couldn't help smiling, "Why haven't you seen the eldest grandson of the emperor?"

Su Xinyi said helplessly: "I'm taking it to Zichen Palace."

Su Yi heard the words and looked at his sister, "Does Your Majesty often see the emperor's eldest grandson?"

Su Xinyi nodded, and said helplessly, "As long as the weather is good, I always have to run over to see her."

Su Yi was very surprised, watching Su Xinyi speak slowly, "There are a lot of rumors about this matter outside, and the family is very worried, so let me come and ask."

Su Xinyi didn't expect to alarm the family, so she said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty just likes Heng'er, after all, he is the first grandson."

"Then you should be more careful. Grandfather asked me to tell you that things are better now. After His Majesty has other grandchildren born, the eldest grandson of the emperor may become the target of public criticism."

Su Xinyi nodded, "I know, I will be careful."

Su Yi heaved a sigh of relief when his sister was willing to persuade him, "The grandson of the emperor is loved by His Majesty, so the family is naturally happy for you, but it's too late. Not to mention that you are the only princess in the East Palace now, so there will be more rumors outside. The next draft is not going to be as easy as this one, and you have to be prepared."

Su Xinyi listened to what her elder brother said, and knew that the family was for her own good, but it was just an agreement between her and His Highness, but it was not easy to tell the family that it was about the prince's face, even if it was a family member, Su Xinyi was not easy to speak.

Therefore, she said to her elder brother: "I know, elder brother will also tell the family members, so that they can feel at ease."

Su Yi nodded, looked at his younger sister and thought about it, and said, "The family received a letter from Su Li, did you get any news from here?"

"I also received a letter from cousin Su Deng. It seems that the two cousins ​​delivered the letter separately." Su Xinyi said.

Su Yi and his family guessed that he had not received Su Deng's letter, so he should have written to Xin Yi. After listening to Xin Yi's words, he knew that his guess was correct. He looked at Xin Yi and asked directly, "What do you think?"

Su Xinyi glanced at his elder brother, "Brother, what do you think?"

Su Yi was overjoyed, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. I thought that if I had the chance, I would go to the border again to fight for the country."

Su Xinyi was silent for a while, and then said: "I can't guess what His Majesty's intentions are in this matter. Don't worry about being few, but about unevenness. The eldest brother has made great achievements several times. I'm afraid you won't be able to go this time."

Su Yi was taken aback, looked up at his sister and smiled, "It's rare for you to know this, I thought you would be happy if I said that."

Su Xinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she looked at her eldest brother and said, "Brother, I'm not a three-year-old child, besides, I've been married to Your Highness for so long, so I need to grow my brain."

Su Yi smiled cheerfully, and nodded after hearing Xin Yi's words, "It's good that you can think so. My grandfather and father also guessed the same way. I guess if there is a real war this time, I may not have the chance to go again."

Su Xinyi said: "It's good that brother can open it if he wants to."

"There's nothing to be overwhelmed with. I'm already content with everything that can't be taken over by one person." Su Yi smiled. If he hadn't been pushed away by his sister, he might be still dawdling in the Imperial Forest Army. "Besides, there is no chance this time, and there may not be no chance in the future."

This makes sense, Su Xinyi looked at her eldest brother, "Brother, do you have any other ideas?"

Su Yi knew that he couldn't hide it from his sister, "Father and grandfather felt that His Majesty might discuss the news brought back by the caravan at the court meeting. If so, our family and Zheng Guogong's mansion will definitely be targeted." In addition, there were quite a few people walking around, obviously wanting to get out."

Su Xinyi was silent for a while, looked at his brother, "You have already sent out the news?"

How can it be so fast?

Su Yi looked at his younger sister, "The letter from the caravan arrived at Zichen Hall, and His Majesty was convening several ministers to discuss matters at that time."

Su Xinyi understood, maybe His Majesty had slipped some words, whether it was intentional or unintentional.

"It's fine to come to the door to inquire about the news. Anyway, we can't hide this matter, so we just say it." Su Xinyi said directly, "But if someone wants to go the way of the Duke's mansion and ask the uncle to recommend him, this matter cannot be done." .”

The generals in the army are not harmonious, and they are divided into factions, and they also restrain each other.

Naturally, this is what His Majesty would like to see. It would be terrible if all the generals in the army were of one mind.

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi looked at his elder brother, "Anyway, our family doesn't do such things."

"Grandfather is also worried that someone will come to your place, let me remind you, don't get involved in these things." Su Yi said seriously.

Su Xinyi smiled, her family really cared about her, she nodded, "I know, I wouldn't do such a thing either." Having said that, she paused, "How is grandfather's health now?"

"It's better to take care of it slowly than in Chunri, but it's just that I'm getting older and my grandfather has hidden wounds. There is no better way at the Tai Hospital. I can only let my grandfather take less trouble and take care of himself more."

Su Xinyi remembered that her grandfather passed away this spring in her previous life, and now she is really content to be able to do well, "Then let my grandfather take good care of her, and don't let my grandfather worry about the trivial matters at home."

Hearing what his sister said, Su Yi said: "Grandpa didn't care about things two years ago, don't worry, my father and I will let my grandfather take care of us."

After Su Yi finished speaking, he got up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he said to Xin Yi: "There is one more thing that you may not know yet. There is something wrong with the Wu Palace. There were some rumors that were not good for you at the beginning, but they have subsided."

Su Xinyi recalled the incident of Concubine Li Gui's slander, "Is it about Concubine Pei's miscarriage?"

Su Yi nodded, "It's good that you know."

"Brother, don't worry, I know who did it." Su Xinyi said in a deep voice, "Speaking of which, how is Master Li's family doing now?"

Su Yi raised his feet and was about to leave. Hearing his sister's question, he stopped and looked at her and said, "Master Li's son and daughter got married one after another. It's not a big deal. Our family sent someone a gift. , but the Li family did not accept it."

"Second Master Li will definitely not accept them. Mrs. Li has been staring at them. If she dares to accept them, she will definitely say that he has hooked up with our family." Su Xinyi sneered.

"Don't be angry because of this matter. Miss Li married into the Zeng family. Aunt Weng asked her for a handkerchief to inquire about the affairs of the Zeng family. Miss Li lived a good life after marrying, so don't worry." Su Yi opened his mouth and said, "It's just that we can't have any contact with them, so we can only pretend that we don't know."

Li Qingyi was doing well, so Su Xinyi felt at ease. Li Ji owed her a favor at the beginning. If she really had a bad life, she had to deal with her if she couldn't say it.

"Miss Li is a smart person, she can live well no matter where she goes." Su Xinyi smiled.

"Li Yiming's life is not good. Li Wencheng often troubles him. It's not easy for others to interfere with this kind of housework."

Li Wencheng is Li Ji's son. Su Xinyi frowned slightly, looked at his eldest brother and said, "Li Ji only has such a son. This time, he broke up with the second master Li's family. Li Wencheng must be upset. However, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. On the contrary, there are disadvantages." It is also beneficial, Li Wencheng is so narrow-minded, causing troubles, the road in the capital will only become narrower and narrower in the future. If Li Yiming is smart, use Li Wencheng as a whetstone, and the pearl will always shine."

Su Yi only nodded, but it's hard to tell. After all, it's the Li family's housework. He looked at his sister and told him, "You don't have to take matters of the Li family too seriously. The second wife of the Li family made a choice at the beginning. You will know what you have to endure. Back then, when you accepted Miss Li’s favor and really asked you for her intelligence, you would definitely use up this favor, so you just wait.”

Su Xinyi couldn't help being happy when he heard the elder brother's old-fashioned words, "What the elder brother said is true."

When my sister smiled, Su Yi felt a little uncomfortable, and said softly: "This is what my second uncle taught me. Now when I am free, I will also learn something from my second and third uncles."

Su Xinyi thought that he wanted to learn, and he couldn't just follow his uncle blindly to learn from Tibet, to learn honesty and kindness. This person is too dutiful and kind.

After Su Yi left, Su Xinyi couldn't calm down after doing it for a while.

She doesn't really care about the rumors outside. Concubine Li Gui just wants to disgust her. Besides, the Li family is troubled now, and she doesn't dare to do it. It's just rumors that are just rumors. Tree.

She was just worried about one thing. If she really wanted to go to war, who would be the commander of the three armies?
Zheng Guogong is old, and he will definitely not be able to go to war again. His Royal Highness, as the heir, has proved his ability to lead troops before, and he may not go this time.

If calculated in this way, it is possible that Rong Wang will be able to take the turn.

If King Rong leads the army, what would the empress think?

Besides, King Rong's temperament is too evasive, I'm afraid the courtiers will have different opinions, so the matter will be much more complicated.

She is not a good person, if someone must lead the army, she naturally hopes that it is someone who is close to Donggong, or has a certain degree of love with Donggong.

For example, Qin Guansheng.

Also, if there is a chance, it is best to let the second brother follow to learn more. It may not be necessary to charge forward, but you must know what it is like to really fight.

Su Xinyi's mind was in a mess, and he didn't hear Yan Junchu's footsteps coming back.

"What are you thinking about so preoccupied?"

Su Xinyi was taken aback, rubbed his heart and looked back at His Highness, and was about to speak, only to find that the hall was already dark, and said in surprise: "It's so late?"

It's getting dark.

Yan Junchu asked someone to come in to light the lamp, and sat beside Xin Yi and looked at her, "Why do you look so sad, what happened?"

Su Xinyi collected himself, and then said: "I received a letter from my cousin, and I saw my elder brother again."

"For the Tartars?"

"Will there be a war this time?" Su Xinyi looked at His Highness and asked.

Yan Junchu patted Xin Yi's hand and said, "That depends on whether the Tatars will come to attack. If they dare to come, we will fight."

Sure enough.

Su Xinyi looked at the prince, "Then who does His Highness prefer to lead the army?"

"It depends on how the court decides." Yan Junchu is hard to say now, the game in the court has always been changing rapidly.

Su Xinyi asked, "Who is your Highness hoping for?"

Yan Junchu smiled, "To tell you the truth, I really haven't thought about it yet."

Su Xinyi nodded, "That's right. The Beijing Army has 48 guards. No matter which guard's commander is selected, they are all able to take charge of their own affairs. But there is only one commander of the three armies. It is really difficult to choose."

"Don't think about these things just yet... Eh, hasn't Heng'er been sent back yet?"

Su Xinyi was startled, and the couple looked at each other.

That's right, she was so busy thinking about these things that she actually forgot about her son.

She immediately stood up, and was about to let people go to Zichen Hall to have a look, but Yan Junchu stretched out his hand to hold her, "Don't worry, I'll let people go and have a look."

Su Xinyi was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that she was a female family member, and it was not good for people to go to the Zichen Palace. If it spread, it would be bad for her.

She was about to speak, when she heard voices coming from outside, the two walked out, and saw Hu Siyi returning with Yan Heng in his arms, and saw the two rushing forward to salute.

"The servant has met His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess."

"Boss Hu is free of courtesy." Yan Junchu smiled, "I'm sorry you brought Heng'er back."

Hu Siyi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and carefully handed the sleeping emperor's eldest grandson to the nanny, and then continued: "The emperor's eldest grandson fell asleep after playing in the side hall of the Zichen Palace. His Majesty was afraid that His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess would be worried, so he asked the slaves to send him to the nanny." return."

Su Xinyi took a look at Zhengxiang's son who was sleeping in the nurse's arms. The baby was so easy to take care of. He reached out to take the child, thanked Hu Siyi, and took his son into the hall first.

Yan Junchu took a step back and went back. Su Xinyi looked at him and asked, "Usually, I don't see him falling asleep in Zichen Palace. Are you too tired from playing today?"

Yan Junchu smiled, "Children are always different every day. Just get used to it slowly."

Su Xinyi glanced at His Highness, thought about it and said, "Is there something you are hiding from me? What did Manager Hu tell you?"

Yan Junchu glanced at Xin Yi, laughed, and said in a low voice, "Hu Siyi told me that someone recommended me to lead the army in front of my father."

Su Xinyi was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "How can this be done?"

The prince of a country is not the commander-in-chief of the three armies, so how can he say that he will go to war if he says he will go to war.

Besides, Grand Master Li and Concubine Li Gui have not given up on King Xiang, if His Highness goes out again this time, it is hard to say whether Grand Master Li will do something, this time is different from last time.

Last time, Grand Master Li thought he had a well-planned plan, so he might not be really cruel. This time, the Li family has fallen to the bottom, and if he wants to turn around completely, he might not do something drastic.
