"Brother Su, you're foolish! You shouldn't have come to Chaoge City this time!"
In Chaoge City, at the residence of the Marquis of Xibo, Ji Chang looked at Su Hu, who had brought his family to Chaoge City, with a pained expression.
"Why does the Marquis of Xibo say this?"
Su Hu was puzzled.
"Brother Su, not long ago, I cast a divination for you, and I'm afraid your trip to Chaoge City will be more ominous than fortunate!"
Ji Chang said.
"kindness?"
Frowning, Su Hu asked in confusion, "I am a loyal subject of the Great Shang Dynasty. In this city of Chaoge, is there anyone who would dare to harm me? Who would have the guts?"
"Brother Su, you are a regional lord, and most people wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you. However, in this city of Chaoge, there is one person who can..."
As he spoke, Ji Chang pointed to the direction above his head.
Upon hearing this, Su Hu's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Marquis of Xibo, are you sure your divination is correct? I am utterly loyal to the Great Shang, how could the King possibly..."
At this moment, Su Hu finally panicked.
After all, in this Chaoge City, with the Emperor's protection, absolutely no one would dare to lay a hand on him, the Marquis of Yizhou.
However, one person must be excluded from this list: the king!
If the king were to lay a hand on him, his situation would be dire.

"Lord Xibo, please enlighten me, why would the King attack me?"
Su Hu's face was extremely grim. He couldn't understand why he, who had been so loyal to the Shang Dynasty, had ended up like this.
"I believe that I have neither made any merit nor endured any hardship in guarding Yizhou for Your Majesty all these years. Could it be that some villain has spoken ill of me?"
"Brother Su, this is a long story, you..."
Just as the Marquis of Xibo was about to speak, several young men and women suddenly walked in.
The leader was none other than Ji Chang's eldest son, Boyi Kao, and beside him were Su Hu's children: his eldest son, Su Quanzhong, and his second daughter, Su Daji!
Looking at the beautiful Su Daji, Ji Chang's face showed a thoughtful expression.
Seeing that Ji Chang, that old fellow, was looking at his most beloved youngest daughter, Su Hu's face showed a hint of dissatisfaction.
After all, he knew that this Marquis of Xibo had nearly a hundred sons, which was quite unusual among the feudal lords.
Right now, staring at his daughter like that, could it be that he's having inappropriate thoughts?
"cough cough"
Su Hu coughed heavily, startling Ji Chang awake.
Turning to Su Hu, Ji Chang said in a deep voice, "Brother Su, before, I was not quite sure why your Su family was in such a predicament. Now, after seeing your daughter, I finally understand that the source of your Su family's troubles lies in your stunningly beautiful daughter!"
"You mean?"
Su Hu's expression changed as he realized what was happening, and he said, "Lord Xibo, do you mean that the King might take a fancy to my daughter?"
"This is impossible!"
Immediately, Su Hu shook his head repeatedly and said, "Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has not had many concubines besides the Queen. He is devoted to the affairs of state and is not the kind of person who is greedy for beauty. How could my daughter implicate our Su family?"
In fact, there was one more thing Su Hu didn't say.
That is, compared to the king who was devoted to state affairs, Su Hu felt that you, Marquis Xibo, were more lustful.
Seeing this, Ji Chang's eyes turned slightly cold, and he said indifferently, "Brother Su, I have said all I have to say. If you do not believe me, there is nothing I can do. Boyi Kao!"
"Father!"
Bo Yikao bowed and said.
"See your Uncle Su off on my behalf."
Ji Chang said.
"Yes, father!"
As Bo Yikao spoke, he gestured for Su Hu and his children to enter.
Su Hu's expression was uncertain, but he said no more and left the Marquis of Xibo's mansion with Su Quanzhong and Su Daji.
"Father!"
After seeing off Su Hu's family, Boyi Kao came to his father.
Looking at Bo Yikao's hesitant expression, Ji Chang said calmly, "Is it because of your brother's matter?"
"Not bad!"
Bo Yikao said, "Before setting off, Ji Fa asked me to come to Chaoge City and make sure to go to the Prime Minister's residence to inquire about the matter of his daughter, Shang Qingjun."
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Ji Chang said in a deep voice, "I will definitely demand an explanation from Shang Rong regarding the matter of Shang Qingjun. Now, our most important task is to take advantage of this opportunity of the Crown Prince's investiture to disrupt the fortunes of the Yin Shang dynasty!"
"Father, isn't there any risk in doing this?"
Bo Yikao asked, "Our king is not someone who can be easily fooled."
"There are risks, of course, but we don't need to bear them ourselves."
Ji Chang shook his head and said.
"What does father mean?"
Bo Yikao's eyes flickered slightly, and the image of Su Hu involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
Ji Chang did not answer, but just stared at the three copper coins in front of him, seemingly lost in thought.
……
"Father, do you really believe what the Marquis of Xibo said?"
Su Quanzhong asked in a deep voice.
Faced with his eldest son's question, Su Hu was at a loss for words.
He knew very well that his eldest son had always regarded the current king as his role model.
I want to be like the king, expanding territory and achieving great deeds!
Therefore, he could not believe that the wise and mighty king would take action against the Su family because of his sister.
However, upon glancing at the obedient and sensible Su Daji behind him, a hint of worry flashed in Su Hu's eyes.
There was no way around it; even though her face was veiled, Su Daji, with her captivating beauty that could topple kingdoms, was indeed a great threat.
"Quan Zhong, you take your sister and go ahead..."
After some thought, Su Hu decided to let his son take his daughter and leave Chaoge City first.
Since the daughter may become a hidden danger, it would be better to send her back to Yizhou first. As long as the king has not seen his daughter, there will naturally be no problem.
However, before he could finish speaking, a large convoy of cars suddenly appeared and entered the city.
"That is!"
Su Hu stared at the imposing convoy, momentarily stunned.
After all, only royalty is qualified to operate on such a scale.
"Father, it's that prince consort!"
Suddenly, Su Daji, who had been silent all along, spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Su Hu immediately spotted a tall man on the back of a dragon-horse at the very front of the caravan!
"It's him!"
Over the years, Chentang Pass has become the most prosperous area in the entire Shang Dynasty, even surpassing Chaoge City, and is faintly known as the first formidable pass of the Yin Shang Dynasty.
There were also many merchant caravans from Chentang Pass in Yizhou, so Su Hu, as the Marquis of Yizhou, knew something about Chentang Pass.
He knew that the prince consort had made an indelible contribution to assisting Princess Suzhi in developing Chentang Pass into the most formidable pass of the Yin Shang Dynasty.
There are even rumors that the only daughter of the Prime Minister became a concubine of the Prince Consort.
However, this is just a rumor and has not been confirmed.
However, all indications suggest that this prince consort is quite formidable.
"Back then, I only caught a fleeting glance, but I never imagined that this prince consort would become even more dashing!"
Su Daji gazed with her beautiful eyes at the prince consort on the back of the dragon horse.
You shouldn't meet someone too amazing when you're young, otherwise you won't be able to spend the rest of your life in peace.
Clearly, on the day of Ao Yifan's wedding to Princess Suzhi, he only glanced at her briefly, yet he left a very deep impression on the young Su Daji.
Seeing her again now, Su Daji recognized her at a glance.
Sitting on the back of the dragon horse, Ao Yifan waved to the people around him.
When his gaze swept over the Su family, it lingered for three breaths without any particular expression.
After all, he knew very well that the Su family couldn't escape, and even if he did nothing, someone would not let them leave easily.
"He... he seems to have smiled at me just now!"
Su Daji held her hands to her chest, her face slightly flushed beneath the light veil.
Looking at his daughter's appearance, Su Hu frowned and turned to look at Su Quanzhong beside him.
"Quan Zhong, take your sister and leave now!"
"Yes, father!"
Su Quanzhong nodded, then turned to Su Daji and said, "Sister, let's go!"
"kindness"
