Chapter 158: Disappointment
In the hall, everyone in the Su family was there, and their eyes were focused on Su Zhiyi's body, and they all wanted to ask what was going on.
Su Zhiyi unnaturally narrowed his eyes, avoiding his father's gaze.
"Today I made an appointment with Miss Qin to enjoy the plum blossoms, in order to climb the plum blossoms outside the pavilion, accidentally stepped on the air and fell, and injured my foot, Miss Qin was supporting me, but I fell down and bruised my palm, and it happened that King Jin passed by, so he helped send me back."
Speaking of this, Su Zhiyi lowered his head.
"The daughter knows that she is wrong, and she asks her father and mother not to be angry."
She deliberately mentioned her mother in her words, which naturally referred to Cui's.
But Cui's as a stepmother, and she has never been close to her, how can she be angry?
Not only will she not be angry, but she has to speak for her in front of Su Yi at this time.
Su Junning glanced at Su Zhiyi and snorted coldly in her heart.
She knew that her second sister was not a simple one.
With a slight turn in her beautiful eyes, Su Junning grabbed the opportunity to speak first in front of Cui's family.
"The accident that happened in this matter, how wrong is the second sister, besides, His Royal Highness the King of Jin took the initiative to send my sister back, it was out of good intentions, my sister doesn't have to blame herself, to put it mildly, my sister has no marriage contract now, even if she has contact with a foreign man, it doesn't matter, I have already made a marriage, and my sister can't get married after me."
Anyway, she usually speaks very directly at home, and she doesn't talk much about the rules, so she adheres to her consistent style and says it with a big grin.
After saying this, he added with a smile.
"Besides, I just saw that His Royal Highness the King of Jin is very concerned about the second sister."
"Ning'er is not allowed to talk nonsense!" Cui immediately reprimanded.
But apparently not really angry.
Su Junning accepted it when she saw it, silently shut up and stepped aside, observing everyone's expressions.
Sure enough, I saw that my father and eldest brother's faces were much more serious.
"You all go back first, I'll say a few words to Zhiyi alone." Su Yi spoke in a deep voice.
Everyone looked at each other and went back.
Cui Shi gave Su Juning a look, meaning that he had something to ask her, so when he walked out of the hall, Su Junning followed her footsteps.
"You girl, do you know anything?" Cui asked in a low voice.
Su Junning stretched out her hand to hold her arm, and said with a smile, "Knowing the daughter Mo Ruomu." ”
"Don't be poor, tell your mother quickly, what's going on." Choi patted her daughter's hand.
Su Juning looked around, and there was no outsider, so he lowered his voice and leaned into Cui's ear.
"Second sister, she is interested in King Jin, and now there is no marriage contract, I see that she probably wants to marry King Jin."
As soon as he heard this, Cui's face suddenly became a lot more serious.
"It's not a joke, really?"
After all, right now in the court, King Jin is a popular candidate for the next crown prince, and if Su Zhiyi marries King Jin, it will undoubtedly drag the Su family directly onto the road of party struggle.
Before lying in front of Emperor Jianning, Su Junning had made a marriage with Shen Qianwei, just to prevent Su Junning from marrying into the royal family and involving the Su family in the battle for succession.
If Su Zhiyi made this mistake now, all his previous actions would be in vain.
"What did I lie to my mother, I saw it with my own eyes, do you remember what I specifically mentioned before, her hosta." Su Juning's eyes darkened.
Choi nodded.
I listened to Su Juning continue.
"That hosta was given to the second sister by the King of Jin, not by herself, I was suspicious at the time, and then I checked it out, and during the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, I saw the second sister catch up with the footsteps of the King of Jin and enjoy the moon with him for a long time.
After saying this, Cui's brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes were full of worry and heaviness.
After a moment, he commanded.
"I know all this, don't tell others, wait until I discuss with your father before making plans, after all, I am my stepmother, and I am not good at her marriage, it depends on your father."
Su Junning nodded, separated from Cui's at the fork in the road, and went back to his courtyard.
At that time, in the front hall, Su Zhiyi knelt in front of Su Yi.
Looking at this eldest daughter, Su Yi was annoyed and distressed, and his face turned pale a few times.
"Dad, I know I shouldn't have this thought, but I really like His Royal Highness King Jin, my daughter is so big, I never want my father to worry too much, and I follow the rules everywhere, but marriage is a matter of my daughter's life, my daughter really doesn't want to leave regrets, and the marriage given by the emperor in the past is just that, but now the marriage is invalid, and the daughter wants to pursue what she wants, and I hope that my father will fulfill it!"
With tears in his eyes, Su Zhiyi leaned over and kowtowed, unable to stand for a long time.
"If you have a crush on the son of which family, no matter how difficult it is, your father can tell you about this marriage, but that is the king of Jin, it is the prince, once you marry in, there will be countless disputes in the future, and there will be no peace for a moment!"
Sitting on the chair, Su Yi patted the armrest anxiously, his eyes full of pain and admonition.
Facing his words, Su Zhiyi raised his head with a firm look in his eyes.
"I know what my father said, but, but who makes the person I like is him, as long as I can marry him, I have no regrets, even if it is an ordinary couple, there are discords, concubines are troubled, instead of tying up with a person I don't like to live this life, I would rather choose to marry the person I like, no matter what happens in the future, at least I am really happy now!"
"Then you don't care about the entire Su family, your father, or your brother?"
Su Yi asked rhetorically in a hoarse voice, with a little disappointment in his eyes.
"Once you marry the King of Jin, our family will have to participate in the battle for succession, that is, if you are not careful, you will fall into a place of no return!"
At the mention of this, Su Zhiyi's eyes dodged a little, and he lowered his eyes to avoid Su Yi's gaze.
"Daddy's position is high and powerful, as long as there is competition in the court, he will inevitably be involved, and at the moment the King of Jin is a standout, the fourth prince and the seventh prince have no capital to compete with him at all, and the King of Jin is the next prince nine times out of ten, and the battle for the heir that Dad is worried about may not happen at all."
Hearing his daughter say this, Su Yi felt like a fish in his throat.
Obviously, it can be seen from Su Junning's incident that Su Yi does not want his daughter to marry into the royal family, otherwise he would not marry the Shen family, so he will resist.
But Su Zhiyi knew his thoughts, and he still wanted to get in touch with King Jin, which was determined to confront him.
For a long time, Su Yi felt that although the second daughter's temperament was more lonely and stubborn, she also understood the general situation and understood the overall situation.
couldn't hear his father's response, and Su Zhiyi's heart was also tightly pinched.
In her heart, she has always been sensible since she was a child, and she has never caused trouble to her family, but since Su Junning returned to Bianjing, all kinds of turmoil have continued, but her father has never said this about her.
Su Juning likes Shen Qianwei, who is not matched with the Su family at all, and she can get married as she wishes, why can't she!
In the end, my father still prefers Su Juning more.
Thinking of this, Su Zhiyi's heart became more and more determined, and he felt that he should fight for this time.
So he spoke again.
"If my father doesn't agree, I will regret it for the rest of my life!"
