406 A secret
Si Nanchen would suddenly suspect that the second prince had been dropped, or because of Gu Haotian. Ever since he learned that Qin Manting was Gu Haotian, his whole person has been a little bad, and he can't help but be suspicious in his heart, for fear that someone he knows will suddenly be dropped. This time, the second prince was seriously injured in the assassination, and the spearhead was pointed at Anton Hua, obviously someone was deliberately causing trouble.
Gu Haotian is not a good person, and the second prince is also not a good thing. So after learning that something was wrong with the second prince after he came back, Si Nanchen directly thought of dropping the bag.
An Donghua didn't speak, although there are indeed problems with what Si Nanchen mentioned, it doesn't prove that the second prince was given a bag. With the temper of the second prince, he was injured in this assassination, and his heart would definitely not be comfortable, and it was completely reasonable for a few people to attack.
However, thinking of Gu Haotian who pretended to be Qin Manting, and the Duke of Ceremonies with strange methods, An Donghua felt a little uneasy. An Donghua thought about it, and said to Si Nanchen: "You can investigate this matter again, be careful when you investigate, if this 'second prince' is fake, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with, don't let him find out." ”
Si Nanchen was originally worried that An Donghua would dislike him for thinking nonsense, so he smiled when he heard the words: "Don't worry, this matter is on me, if he is true or fake, see if I don't pick up the fake skin on his body!" At this point he paused and asked worriedly, "How is General Xin?" You just went back to Beijing like this, is it okay for him to stay in Jiaozhou? ”
Before Antonhua could tell him that Xin Zhan's poison had been cured, seeing that he was worried, he simply said: "The doctor has prepared the antidote, and he is fine, but the physical loss is too great." I can only recuperate slowly. Speaking of this, he thought of Xin Zhan's remaining few years, and his eyes were dark.
Si Nanchen saw that his feelings were not high. guessed that Xin Zhan's situation was not very good, so it was difficult for him to continue asking. He didn't doubt the detoxification. After all, Anton Hua is the king of Jiaozhou, and he has a huge Jiaozhou, can't he find a few powerful doctors?
He told An Donghua about Zhao Liya's pregnancy: "Concubine Ya is pregnant now, Concubine Yun Guifei is afraid that she can't sit still, she will definitely not let Concubine Ya give birth to the child, as long as she makes a move, our chance will come!" ”
Antonhua said: "Don't act rashly for the time being, there are definitely a lot of people who pay attention to this matter, don't expose our people." Just wait to see the show. ”
Si Nanchen thought about it and understood Anton Hua's concerns. The emperor urgently ordered Anton Hua to enter Beijing this time, and he must have been worried that Anton Hua would sit in Jiaozhou, so he summoned him back under the pretext of the assassination of the second prince. At this juncture, the emperor is afraid that he will always send people to keep an eye on Antonhua. If Anton Hua's appearance is too good, I am afraid that the emperor will be even more jealous of him.
Although he regretted that he couldn't deal with Yun Guifei, Si Nanchen still nodded cautiously: "Don't worry, I won't mix this matter, I'll watch the play with you." He laughed as he spoke. Yun Guifei and Concubine Ya's aunt and nephew are fighting each other, I am afraid that they are very good-looking. I just don't know who will win this time. ”
"No matter who wins, we won't lose." An Donghua said coldly, he didn't have any good feelings for the women of the Zhao family, "I have already reminded Your Majesty." He should have suspected that Shang Qin Manting. ”
Si Nanchen was even happier when he heard it, whether it was Gu Haotian or Qin Manting, he was quite unpleasant. This person is too self-righteous, and now he will be unlucky when he hears about the other party. His mood improved instantly.
The two talked for a while, roughly handed over the bottom, and then went their separate ways. An Donghua went back to the palace directly, but Si Nanchen didn't go anywhere, only recruited his henchmen and ordered him to go down.
When An Donghua returned to the palace, he heard the housekeeper say that Shang Jinxiu's cousin was here. He was stunned for a moment, and then remembered Shang Jinluo's rudeness to Shang Jinxiu. With a frown, An Donghua planned to go to the inner courtyard to have a look. But by the time he arrived in the inner courtyard, Shang Jinluo had already left.
He didn't go to see Shang Jinluo, so he didn't care, just looked at Shang Jinxiu's face. However, Shang Jinxiu's face was silent, and he couldn't tell if he was angry at all. He had to ask, "I heard that your cousin is here, she didn't say anything, did she?" ”
He said as he walked over to Shang Jinxiu and sat down.
Shang Jinxiu was thinking about what Shang Jinluo said just now, Shang Jinluo came to see her this time, for the same thing, hoping that Shang Jinxiu could help her take revenge. Different things, last time Shang Jinluo pleaded, this time it was to negotiate a deal with Shang Jinxiu.
Shang Jinluo meant that as long as Shang Jinxiu helped her get rid of Li Yunxiang, she would tell Shang Jinxiu a secret. Shang Jinxiu felt that she was becoming more and more unable to see through Shang Jinluo, where did this woman get her confidence, thinking that she would definitely agree?
As soon as Anton Hua asked, she said simply, and Anton Hua sneered when he heard it: "This woman is really ...... It's too self-righteous! Don't bother with her, I'll let the housekeeper know later, and I won't let her in in the future. ”
He really didn't like Shang Jinluo, and he didn't like Shang Jinluo to spoil Shang Jinxiu's mood. Shang Jinxiu shook her head: "No need, she won't come again in the future." She didn't promise Shang Jinluo today, Shang Jinluo's face was very ugly when she left, and she probably won't come back in the future.
Unwilling to continue this topic, Shang Jinxiu asked An Donghua: "How are you doing when you enter the palace?" What did your majesty tell you? ”
An Donghua didn't want Shang Jinxiu to worry, let alone make her sad, so he just picked out a simple thing and ignored the matter of the emperor letting him marry a side concubine. Shang Jinxiu didn't expect this at all, so he didn't suspect it.
An Donghua thought for a while and said, "Let's finally come back this time, why don't we go and see your family tomorrow?" ”
Shang Jinxiu was embarrassed: "Wouldn't it be inappropriate?" "It's not a festival now, Antonhua is a prince after all, what is it like to follow her to the business? Although Shang Jinxiu thought a lot in his heart, but they had just returned to the capital, and they didn't know how many were staring at them, so they were waiting to pick on them, if they really went, I don't know what those people were going to say. She doesn't mind what others say about her, she's just worried that it will affect her family.
Antonhua didn't care: "What's inappropriate?" We just came back from Jiaozhou, why is it inappropriate to visit your father? Anyway, the New Year will be celebrated in a few days, so you should give them New Year's greetings in advance. ”
Shang Jinxiu knew that he was deliberately making excuses, but it was rare for An Donghua to have this thought, so she couldn't help laughing when she thought about it, and nodded in agreement.
It's just that the next day, Antonhua failed to go to the business. The emperor sent someone to pass the decree and let Anton Hua go to court. Helpless, Shang Jinxiu had to go to the merchant alone.
After breakfast, she went to the merchant early in the morning, Shang Shigong went to the court, and only Shang Sun, Li Shuhua and Shang Jinyun were at home, Shang Jin'an entered the academy, and he was not at home at all at this time.
Since getting the news that Shang Jinxiu was coming back, the merchants were looking forward to it day and night, and cleaned the house early, as soon as Shang Jinxiu went, Li Shuhua and Shang Jinyun couldn't help but have red eyes. Shang Sun has always disliked Shang Jinxiu, but now that she is older, she can't help but show kindness when she sees Shang Jinxiu.
Etiquette is still exchanged, she does not provoke Shang Jinxiu, and Shang Jinxiu naturally will not deliberately provoke her. Shang Jinxiu came back this time and brought a lot of gifts to his family, giving Shang Sun's family a complete set of excellent jadeite jewelry, as well as new brocade in Jiaozhou, some rare skins and medicinal materials.
After Shang Sun received the gift, his face smiled more kindly, and he deliberately pulled Shang Jinxiu to his side to speak. Just talking and talking, the topic detoured to the heir.
Shang Sun said bitterly: "Xiu'er, you have to take advantage of your youth now and strive to get a man in one fell swoop, as long as you can give birth to your eldest son, your position as a concubine will be stable, even if the prince has a side concubine in the future, they will not be able to go beyond you." ”
Shang Jinxiu smiled and didn't dwell on the topic with Shang Sun's family. She knew that Shang Sun's words were also kind, but she and An Donghua had already made an agreement. She was only fifteen and a half years old at the moment, so she was too young to have a baby so early.
It's just that these things don't need to be sued by the Shang Sun family, she and An Donghua just know it in their hearts, so as not to spread it out, but cause trouble. If outsiders know, some people will say that she is too arrogant and has a bad reputation for the business.
Seeing that she was just laughing and not talking, Shang Sun was worried that Shang Jinxiu didn't listen, so she couldn't help asking, "Xiu'er, how many concubines does the prince have now?" You have to be a little longer, don't let those foxes take away the prince's heart! When she said this, she couldn't help but glance at the big girl Qingxue who was waiting beside her. Qingxue's appearance is very good, and she is also smart, so she hesitated and wanted Shang Jinxiu to take her back to the palace.
But before she could speak, Shang Jinxiu suddenly looked at her faintly. She looked at those eyes, and suddenly a thrill in her heart, and then looked at Shang Jinxiu's bright and incomprehensible appearance, she completely stopped thinking.
In terms of appearance, Qingxue and Shang Jinxiu can't be compared at all, and in terms of age, Qingxue is a little older than Shang Jinxiu. In this case, where does Shang Jinxiu need her?
Shang Sun felt that he had really thought badly just now, so he smiled and pulled Shang Jinxiu to talk about other things.
Li Shuhua sat next to her, glanced at Qingxue coldly, and saw Qingxue's heart drumming, and cold sweat broke out on her back.
After coming out of Shang Sun's place, Shang Jinxiu went to Li Shuhua's house. After dividing many people, Shang Jinxiu asked Li Shuhua: "Mother, have your cousins been here these days?" ”
When Li Shuhua heard this, her face suddenly changed. She still remembers that just half a year ago, Shang Jinluo begged Shang Jinxiu to help her take revenge, but Shang Jinxiu refused. After that, Shang Jinluo became estranged from her and never came to their house again.
She knew that Shang Jinxiu wouldn't ask for no reason, so she asked, "What's wrong?" Did she go to you again? ”
Shang Jinxiu nodded: "She said that as long as I help her avenge, she will tell me a secret." I felt as if she really knew something. When she came yesterday, her face was very bad. ”
Li Shuhua was even more puzzled: "What can she know?" (To be continued......)
