After Xiaozhuang finished bowing, he leaned over again, helped Su Malagu up, and then pulled her to sit down on the couch. Su Malagu did not sit side by side with Xiaozhuang, but sat on the wooden bench of Xiaozhuang, slowly raised her head, and looked at Xiaozhuang.

Xiaozhuang looked at Aunt Su Mala at this moment, smiled and nodded.

"Su Ma, why do you have time to come to Cining Palace? Don't you have to serve the emperor? Xiaozhuang asked with a gentle smile.

Aunt Su Mala shook her head, "The master is reviewing the chapter, and over there, there is Rong Xiang'er to take care of it, so the slave and maid can be busy and come over to see the ancestor." ”

"Rong Xiang'er?" Xiaozhuang frowned, and looked at Aunt Su Mala suspiciously.

Su Malagu nodded and responded, "Rong Xiang'er is the personal maid newly selected by the slave maid for the master. ”

Xiaozhuang nodded, slowly raised his hand, lightly clasped Su Malagu's head on his knees, and stroked her black hair, "This palace knows your intentions, you are really cultivating your own successor, right?" ”

Aunt Su Mala heard Xiaozhuang's words, her eyes instantly reddened, and she nodded slightly.

"Su Ma, you have been in the palace since you were six years old, and now you have six years. This palace regards you as a granddaughter, and Xuan Ye regards you as a sister, and in the eyes of the two grandchildren and grandchildren, they already regard you as a relative of the slightly. ”

"The slave knows." Su Malagu was poked into the deepest part of her heart by Xiaozhuang's words, and tears finally broke through her eyes and flowed down.

"Men should get married, and women should get married. This is the longevity of man. Our grandparents have troubled you enough. You must not delay your life's events any longer. Xiaozhuang said, leaned over and slowly straightened up Su Malagu, looked straight at her with his eyes, and finally raised his hand and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Su Ma, you must know that as a child of the royal family, your marriage will definitely be connected with the court affairs. Xuan Ye is like this, and so are you. Xiaozhuang stared at Aunt Su Mala's eyes with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice.

Aunt Su Mala stubbornly raised her head, but after staring at Xiaozhuang for a few minutes, she nodded gently.

"Ancestor, slaves and maids are just unwilling. Therefore, the slave and maid would rather be in the palace, serving the master, and the ancestors for a lifetime. Su Malagu's face suddenly turned red.

Xiaozhuang didn't interject, but still stared at her with straight eyes.

Su Malagu continued, "The slave and maid know, but the slave and the maid must not be so selfish. In the face of the huge interests of the Qing Dynasty, the slaves and maids could only choose to compromise. ”

Xiaozhuang looked distressed, raised his hand and gently stroked this Su Malagu's cheek, and said with distress, "Child, it's hard for you." ”

"Ancestor!" Su Malagu heard Xiaozhuang's words, and finally completely let go of her emotions, hugged Xiaozhuang's knees, and cried loudly.

Xiaozhuang raised his hand distressedly, patted Su Malagu's back, and muttered in a low voice, "Everyone in the world says that being able to support the royal family is a blessing for the tenth generation. However, who would have thought that what they endured was far more than anyone else! ”

After a few minutes, Su Malagu finally restrained her crying, leaned lightly on Xiaozhuang's knees, and sobbed softly.

Xiaozhuang smiled gently and patted her on the back and said, "Su Ma, Xuan Ye chose to marry you to Fushan, the first thing he thought of was your happiness, and the second thing he thought of was politics. ”

Aunt Su Mala, who had been staying by Wu Yue's side, could certainly see it. After all, Wu Yue didn't mean to marry Fu Shan at first, it was Fu Shan who fell in love with him, even to the point of madness, Wu Yue cultivated it with intention, and until now, he handed over the most important errand to him.

did his best to improve his status, and the ultimate goal was to let Su Malagu live a stable and peaceful life in the future.

As for the so-called political marriage, Su Malagu understood that it was just something that Wu Yue did casually.

Although there are some reasons in it, the amount is very small.

Su Malagu slowly sat up straight, and looked sideways at Xiaozhuang, "The master's intentions, the slave and maid understand." So this time, the slave did not refuse the master's kindness. ”

"Good!" Hyo-joong smiled and nodded.

"However, there is one thing that the slave and maid cannot rest assured of." Aunt Su Mala frowned and said in a deep voice.

Xiaozhuang has served three generations of emperors, and its skill of knowing people has reached the point of perfection, and Su Malagu wants to say something. Xiaozhuang naturally knew.

Xiaozhuang smiled and raised his hand to stop Su Malagu.

"Hongu knows what you want to say," Xiaozhuang said, slowly standing up. Su Malagu got up and stood beside her.

Xiaozhuang stared at the green plants on the Bogu shelf next to him, and then said, "This palace has not coveted the throne, and when Xuan Ye seized power in the court, this palace did not do anything wrong. And the reason why Xuan Ye is suspicious of this palace is because of the influence of this palace on the hundred officials of the court, that is, you should be careful with this palace when you do things. If it goes too far, Hongu will intervene directly. Those who are born in the incident, no matter who they are, will be severely punished! ”

Su Malagu nodded.

"The reason why the ancestor showed the public with such a face was also to confuse the officials. Let them do their best to assist the new emperor. And don't go too far. Su Malagu said in a deep voice.

Xiaozhuang heard Aunt Su Mala's words, looked at her sideways, smiled and nodded.

"At that time, only in this way could we deter hundreds of officials."

"The military power that this palace gave Xuan Ye at the end is the only thing that this palace can rely on. Although Bengong knows that for the local Xuan Ye, the effect is not very large, and it can even be said that it is like chicken ribs. But at least it can give him a little confidence. Xiaozhuang let out a long sigh and said.

"The matter of Ao Bai and Suke Saha, before Xuan Ye started to deal with it, the palace had already found out. But at that time, Ao Bai Daquan was already in his hands, and the palace no longer had the strength to confront him head-on. So I can only choose to attack him at a critical moment. ”

"Ancestor, do you mean to say that before you entered the palace on the day of worship, you had already taken action?" Su Malagu's face was full of surprise.

Xiaozhuang nodded, "Aobai is known as the first Baturu of the Qing Dynasty, and his strength is far from what you can imagine. It was the palace that secretly sent someone to poison him, and the day he was poisoned happened to be when Xuan Ye chose to attack, so he would be taken down relatively smoothly. ”

"Didn't you notice that when you return to the secret prison of the Criminal Department, it seems that you have changed someone?" Xiaozhuang said in a deep voice.

Su Malagu pondered for a moment, and now she finally figured out why Ao Bai had a sudden change.

It turned out that it was only after he arrived at the secret prison of the Criminal Department that he realized that it was the ancestor who did it to him. And the reason why he didn't have any complaints, and the reason for finding out was that he felt that the ancestor had poisoned him, and the ultimate goal was to save the lives of his clan! Su Malagu said in a solemn whisper.

Xiaozhuang listened quietly, looked at Aunt Su Mala with straight eyes, and nodded convincingly.

Obviously, Su Malagu's words directly hit her intentions!
