Chapter 238 draws the line
Even though everyone speculated, but now Su Zhiyi's matter is the matter of the Jin Palace, and no matter how much they speculate, it is useless, so they all hold back for the time being and wait to see the development of the situation outside.
But what is surprising is that this matter fermented quickly, and there was new news in the afternoon.
Su Zhiyi's miscarriage is Li Lingxi's hand, and the problem is in the sour fruit she ate.
Originally, it would be fine to eat sour fruits alone, but this special sour fruit and the tocolytic medicine are all in conflict, and eating them will make people weak in the spleen and stomach, nausea and vomiting, and unable to eat.
It's a way to kill without seeing blood.
If outsiders don't investigate deeply, they will come to the same conclusion as the imperial doctor, that Su Zhiyi did not eat, which caused the mother to be so weak that she could not maintain the fetus.
And the reason why it was found out again was because there was a little eunuch beside Li Lingxi who told the secret.
The news was that Yingmei went out to inquire and came back, and when she finished speaking, Su Junning immediately asked.
"So now this scandal is known to everyone outside?"
"yes." Yingmei nodded, "Princess Jin has been called into the palace by Concubine Xian Niangniang to interrogate, and now everyone outside is scolding Princess Jin Li's femme fatale, King Jin is fighting for the country on the front line, but she is plotting to kill the heir of King Jin in the back, what she says is very ugly." ”
After a pause, Yingmei continued.
"It is also said outside that our lord is the most kind-hearted and loves his children, and the second lady was bullied by the Li family like this, so that she had a miscarriage, and our lord must ask the emperor and the Rongguo Mansion for an explanation."
"Wait, why do you mention your father specifically?" Su Junning raised his hand to interrupt.
Yingmei nodded, "It's all praise and grievances, but how can the slave and maid listen to it, it seems that our master has set up our master, if the master doesn't take care of this matter, it seems that it can't be said, but"
"But although our family is the second lady's maiden family, the second miss is now the royal daughter-in-law and a concubine, how can the lord interfere, people are terrible, and the royal power is even heavier."
Nan Xu, who was drying hot tea next to him, frowned and said this.
Even she could see it, how could the sisters Su Juning and Su Wanyin not see it.
The two sisters looked at each other, and their hearts were clear.
"Although this method is simple, it is really useful, and it puts both of them on the fire at once." Su Wanyin was speechless.
Su Junning's eyes were slightly gloomy, "The Li family murdered the heir of the Jin prince and committed a big crime, and the Rongguo Mansion will be punished jointly, our family is now a beloved heir who has been praised by the sky, if my father doesn't care at all, outsiders will definitely criticize our Su family for being cold-blooded and ruthless, and ruining the reputation. ”
After all, this is also a royal scandal.
"I'm afraid it's the Seven Princes who are behind the scenes, otherwise how could this matter be stabbed out of the Jin Palace, they are thinking about the two major help behind the King of Jin." Su Wanyin frowned.
Although the Su family knows in their hearts that they are not involved in the succession, if there is a Su Zhiyi, it will be regarded by outsiders as the party of King Jin, which is a trouble after all.
Su Junning narrowed her eyes, pondered for a moment, and slowly had some thoughts in her heart.
"What the other party wants to traumatize is the wings of King Jin, but our Su family is not, so naturally we shouldn't be affected by this, so it's better to take this opportunity to draw a line with King Jin's mansion."
"Will Big Berken say yes?" Su Wanyin looked a little worried, "I see that although the eldest uncle is angry with the second sister and never helps the king of Jin, it seems that he doesn't care about the second sister's life or death." ”
Otherwise, Su Zhiyi's request for help in the early stages of pregnancy would have been completely ignored.
Su Junning was naturally clear about this in her heart, and nodded.
"Having said that, but things are man-made, there is always a way, I haven't figured it out in my heart at the moment, wait for me to think about it, wait for my father to come back at night, and then call my two brothers and mother, let's discuss it together as a family."
It's a blessing or a curse, you don't have to make a decision so early, you can't take the opportunity to do what you want to do.
Su Wanyin bowed his head and didn't ask any more.
In the evening, the whole family had dinner together, and Su Yi took the initiative to bring up the matter.
On the one hand, he wants to hear the ideas of his children, after all, the children are older, and they can't protect them too well, and they need to be trained, on the other hand, he really can't make up his mind.
"Dad, the Li family deceives people too much, even if he is not on good terms with Zhiyi, but the child is innocent, our Su family has never been an enemy of her Rongguo Mansion, but she has done this, even if her intentions are not good in every way, but in the end, she is also a member of our Su family." Su Yuhui was the first to speak.
He and Su Zhiyi are brothers and sisters of the same mother, so they naturally have a closer relationship.
Although he was very disappointed in Su Zhiyi because of the foolish thing that Su Zhiyi had to marry the King of Jin before, he didn't want to watch others bully his own sister like this.
Compared with him, the third Su Yu'an didn't say it so clearly.
"In this matter, the second sister has indeed suffered a great grievance, but even if we want to support the second sister, we must be more considerate and not violate the taboo of the heavenly family."
After listening to the words of the two sons, Su Yi nodded with a gloomy face, and immediately looked to the other side.
"Does Ning'er have any ideas?"
He has always treated several children equally, regardless of gender, and Su Junning can usually put forward some good opinions, so he asked.
Su Junning put down the dishes and chopsticks and looked at him as well.
"I have an idea in mind, but before I talk about it, I still want to ask my dad a question."
"You say." Su Yi nodded.
Then I heard Su Juning say slowly, "Is Dad willing to completely draw a line with the matter of seizing the heir in front of outsiders?" ”
Su Yi frowned, took a deep look at his daughter, and then nodded.
"Loyal to the monarch, only loyal to the king, is the one sitting on the dragon chair, the Su family, only a pure minister."
"That is the case, the daughter thinks that the royal affairs should be handed over to the royal family, although the second sister is the daughter of our Su family, but now she is the royal daughter-in-law, the daughter thinks that this matter, the father is better to ask the emperor to be the master."
Speaking of this, Su Juning paused, looked at the eldest brother who wanted to speak and stopped, and continued.
"I know that the eldest brother wants to support the second sister, but if we really face the conflict with the Li family, first, let's meddle in the affairs of the royal mansion and investigate whether it is trespassing, and second, whether it is the emperor or the queen or the virtuous concubine, they have not yet punished this matter, in the final analysis, the Li family's crime of murdering the heir has not yet been confirmed."
"If we are in a hurry to jump out now and force them to dispose of the Li family and support the second sister, it will also make the royal scandal a reality, even if the second sister avenges a momentary revenge, but she is still in the royal family, how should she live by herself in the future?"
"I'm afraid that the people who praise our Su family for cherishing their heirs behind our backs today just want to provoke us to confront the Li family and make a big deal about it, then the scandal of the wives and concubines of the Jin queen's house is well known, and if we are not careful, it will also displease the emperor."
When she said this, the table was silent.
Because once he draws a clear line with King Jin, it means that Su Zhiyi has completely lost the Su family's maiden support in front of outsiders, and his future life may not be easy.
After a while, Su Yuhui moved the corners of his mouth, raised his eyes to look at the people around him, and after his eyes were tangled, he bowed his hand to Su Yi.
"Dad, what Ning'er said is right, when she was in the boudoir, she was dressed in brocade and jade food for eighteen years, and the Su family was already very worthy of her, but now the situation is the consequence of her willfulness, since we want to be pure ministers, we can't continue to be so entangled."
