Chapter 561 The Shocking Shift
He Wenqiong is very disappointed to look at the screen outside the granddaughter’s silhouette, although He Xiuyi did not enter the palace before, with his grandfather in fact not see a lot, but in the end is the eldest granddaughter, He Wenqiong occasionally listen to his son and daughterinlaw mentioned to He Xiuyi’s character is still an understanding of the granddaughter of the broken not have the guts to join the conspiracy to kill the eldest Princess of Changxing things.
The problem was that when the palace maid accused He Xiuyi of being displeased with Empress Su, in full view of everyone, instead of immediately retorting, He Xiuyi exuded a clear sense of trepidation!
Now who doesn’t know that she did express her displeasure with Empress Su?
“This child is still too young and has experienced too little!” He Wenqiong sighed inwardly and decided to divert the blame he asked to reexamine the scented sachets made by Ms. Jiang, and questioned whether the scented sachet that Ms. Jiang called “Sister Xue’s one that had already been burned to her” had really been burned or not.
Because Jiang Cai Ren took to a piece of the palace companions to share the scented pouches actually look pretty much the same.
He Xiuyi received, followed by letting the accompanying maid receive the box to put up, not at all carefully observed, memory details.
Maybe Jiang Cailian actually have extra hands, and take the extra one pitched Changxing Princess, but quietly stole from the He Xiuyi that scented bag destroyed just!
But although Jiang Cailian is as old as He Xiuyi, she is much harder to deal with than He Xiuyi, not only did she put on the posture of casually He Wenqiong how to investigate, but she even mentioned, “Previously, Auntie Xiuyi was bedridden, and the Empress allowed Auntie Xiuyi’s maiden mother, Mrs. Lian, to come into the palace to visit her. After that, Mrs. Lian left, and the Queen was at peace! And at that time, the Empress Dowager on the same day and the next day, have rewarded the cultivation of the Queen Mother something at that time Xue concubine sister and concubine a few private speculation, that is Mrs. Lian is estimated to bring the Empress Dowager with what important news, otherwise the Empress Dowager this period of time are concerned about the Crown Prince, which have the time to specially reward the cultivation of the Queen Mother two times in a row it? ”
When she said this, He Wenqiong’s heart immediately “thumped”, his eldest son, He Xiuyi’s father, He Zhi, has always been opposed to him compromising with the Su family, of course he knows this in his heart.
Just He Wenqiong did not listen to He Zhi’s advice now Jiang Cailian certainly did not explicitly, but He Wenqiong which can not guess, must be He Zhi see can not persuade him to this father, privately do the trick!
“Zhi’er is simply nonsense!” He Wenqiong was shocked and angry, secretly saying, “Does he think that if he makes his daughter defect to the Empress, the Wei family will credit him? This is nothing more than giving Qin Wan to the Wei family to be counted!”
The reason why He Wenqiong had previously agreed to let King Su into the imperial capital, besides the fact that the crown prince had been assassinated and seriously injured, causing the Wei family’s side to lose the most advantageous candidate for the throne, He Qian’s marriage to the eldest princess of Changxing also played a role.
But now, the eldest princess of Changxing is dead, and King Su has no other sisters of the same mother, so it is simply impossible to continue this marriage.
If Mr. and Mrs. He Zhi hadn’t complained to Empress Wei through He Xiuyi, and it was only He Xiuyi who was suspected of plotting against the Eldest Princess Changxing, He Wenqiong would still be able to be ruthless and simply abandon his granddaughter but would this be the case that unless he wanted to give up on the Longfang family, he could support the Su family any longer?
Although He Wenqiong had four sons at his knee, as an orthodox scholar, he was like all parents who emphasized rules at this time, the first son was the one he valued the most, spent the most effort on, and had the greatest hopes for!
Asking him to give up He Zhi was the same as asking Emperor Xianjia to give up Emperor Duanhua in the first place, and even if he would rationally consider such a possibility, he couldn’t do it emotionally!
“Please ask the eunuch to ask, does the Empress Mother have any spare time?” He Wenqiong held the long case in front of him with some trembling, and after taking a deep breath for a few moments, he finally made up his mind and turned his head to the small chamberlain not far away, whispering, “Just say, there’s something that my humble servant wants to report to the Empress!”
And at this time, Su Shaoge was settling down in the flower hall of Marquis Yan’s residence.
“At this late hour, the second prince suddenly came, but what urgent matter has happened?” It was indeed very late, originally the wedding was held in the evening, November’s windy and snowy days, it got dark very early, after Changxing Changprincess went, the Empress Dowager had a big fight with the Empress, and the Dowager Empress gave the order for He Wenqiong to enter the palace to thoroughly investigate the cause of her daughterinlaw’s death so much tossing and turning it was already midnight.
At this time Su Shaoge suddenly came to the door, Song Yixiao was temporarily shouted up, hurriedly combed and dressed out to greet him, no way, Jian Xubai this will still be in the Jin State Grand Princess residence to serve the disease, the large Yan Marquis House only she can do the Lord.
At this moment, Song Yi asked Su Shaoge what had happened, but in his heart, he had almost guessed eight out of ten. Nine is related to the death of Changxing Princess!
Sure enough, after Su Shaoge nodded slightly, he said without hesitation, “There is an urgent matter that I need to ask for Grandma’s help!”
He paused and said in a deep voice, “He Wenqiong is only going to fall to the Wei family!”
“Is it because of the death of Her Highness Princess Changxing?” Song Yixiao gazed intently, “Could He Xiuyi have really been involved in this matter?”
“Whether or not He Xiuyi was involved in this matter is no longer important now.” Su Shaoge shook his head, “The problem is that He Wenqiong’s eldest son and daughterinlaw privately tipped off the Wei family about King Su’s entry into the city, and it’s likely that Empress Wei heard this news before she developed a murderous intent towards Changxing!”
Song Yixiao’s face changed it’s no wonder He Wenqiong fell to the Wei family!
After all, if Empress Su’s only daughter and King Su’s only sibling sister lost her life, even if He Wenqiong was instrumental in King Su’s endorsement, I’m afraid it would be difficult to protect He Zhi, and even if he could, he should not count on his future whereas if he chose the Wei family, even though he himself would be subjected to a settling of scores due to the wavering of his position, He Zhi, who had always been loyal to the Wei family, would not be questioned. If he chose the Wei family, even though he himself would be subjected to a fall of judgment for having wavered, He Zhi, who had always been loyal to the Wei family, would not be subjected to crossexamination, and instead would be rewarded!
In his own future and the future of the eldest son, He Wenqiong chose the latter he has been on a bit of age, with his ability to achieve the Ministry of War is the limit, there is no further possibility; but He Zhi is still in the prime of life, there is still potential.
At He Wenqiong’s age, he no longer values his own gains and losses so much, but rather values the development of his juniors.
Then his current choice is a logical one.
It was just that He Wenqiong’s mind, although both Su Shaoge and Song Yixiao could understand it, it didn’t mean it was acceptable!
“Has the forbidden army moved?” Song Yixiao took a deep breath, picked up the tea and sipped it, and asked, “Has He Wenqiong already left the palace or?!”
“He hasn’t left the palace yet, but has already interrupted the trial and invited Empress Wei to the side hall for a separate secret talk!” Su Shaoge reached out and rubbed his finger on his brow, and said in a low voice, “I rushed over as soon as I received the news, and I don’t know if they’ve finalized their talks by now but you know Empress Wei’s character, and as long as He Wenqiong gives her a chance, she’s definitely not going to let it go!”
In fact, He Wenqiong just doesn’t give the Wei family a chance, and Empress Wei is also a person who will create her own opportunities, and isn’t what happened today an example of that?
On the premise that He Wenqiong himself was inclined to choose the Wei family, it was simply impossible for Empress Wei to make a mistake in convincing him to make up his mind!
“Then what do you plan to do now?” Song Yixiao thought sharply and said, “Husband is not in the mansion right now, even if we send someone to the Grand Princess of Jin’s residence now to invite him back, this coming and going …”
“It’s no longer helpful to think about convincing He Wenqiong now!” Su Shaoge interrupted her, his speech speeding up slightly as he said, “We can only make him unable to command the forbidden army for the time being I know that Marquis Yan is not in the mansion at the moment, and I’m afraid that it will be too late to mobilize the manpower by the time he returns, so … ”
Song Yixiao spread her hands out when she heard this and said hopelessly, “The problem is, I simply don’t know what kind of manpower he has in his hands? Let alone giving orders on his behalf!”
She knows that Su Shaoge said is the truth, in He Wenqiong itself has been inclined to the Wei family, Queen Wei and not confused under such a premise, if the Su family is still thinking of using persuasion to pull together He Wenqiong, the hope is already not very much instead of dragging and dragging, it would be better to cut through the mess quickly, better than an inadvertent can only be sent to the body and life of someone else to be the master of the! The first time I saw this was when I was in the middle of the night!
But today’s scene is what their side did not expect if they had expected it, how would they have watched Elder Princess Changxing die? To put it bluntly, even if they really want to watch the death of the Princess, it can’t be related to the He family!
So hearing that Su Shaoge was asking to borrow manpower, Song Yixiao couldn’t help but find it difficult.
“I just came to look for grandma!” I didn’t want Su Shaoge to remind, “Has Grandma forgotten? You are the only bloodline of Jiangnan Hall! I think ‘Follow the Wind’ has already joined you, right?”
The corner of Song Yixiao’s mouth tugged, “Are you sure they can use it?”
That bunch of waste secret guards, she can be said to hold a peaceful attitude to accept down mainly but that Pu mother’s entanglement, as for trust and rely on, she would rather count on their own two years to bring out that group of people it!
“Does grandma know why Gu Shao went to the Song residence for a short stay when he arrived in the imperial capital back then?” When Su Shaoge heard this, her eyes flickered and she said, “And quite lived there for a while before moving back to his own Chunlong Garden?”
Song Yixiao a frown this matter of the inside story she did not know at the time, and did not care about it, until later her own parents parents up, she only know, seems to be because the Song Yuan gave Gu Shao a lot of things the reason? In order to cover people’s ears, so let Gu Shao first to the Song residence, discuss this matter?
She mused, “Don’t tell me that at that time, my father gave even the elite dark guards to Gu Shao?”
“If not for that, your brother and sister I mean Second Miss Song and Fourth Prince Song may not have lost their lives at the hands of Prince Hengshan.” Su Shaoge calmly said, “And not long ago, the assassin who ‘assassinated’ King Xiang, who did Grandma think was pretending to be?!”
Seeing Song Yixiao’s face change slightly, he slowly said, “Just as Grandma thought the assassination of King Xiang is Gu Shao singlehandedly organized, the spearhead of this matter is directly pointed at the King of Su, our Su family can not not try to investigate clearly, but also the King of Su a clean! As a result of this investigation, it was only recently that we realized that the assassins were not cultivated by Gu Shao himself, but came from the Song family’s ‘Follow the Wind’!”
“It’s clear that Gu Shao’s mind is vicioushe’s clearly planning to kill two birds with one stone, and he’s counting on King Su and Marquis Yan at the same time!”
Song Yixiao’s face turned green as she said, “In that case, Mama Pu and the others who made a fuss about defecting to me were also instructed by Gu Shao?!”
Otherwise, everyone knows that she is not on good terms with the Song family, and if she doesn’t accept the words of Pu’s mother, who can press the things done by the “wind” on her head?
Song Yixiao this will be Song Yuan from the coffin out of a thousand cuts of the heart have, Jiangnan Song in the end to do how many unethical things, will be spread to such a family head? The dark guards, the six valves of the most important card, he actually said to give out!
Song Yixiao didn’t expect any inheritance from the Song family, but she gave it back to someone who tried to trap her. How much did Song Yuan hate her? The fact is that the Songs are not the same as the Songs, but the Songs are the same as the Songs!
It is also fortunate that this real father died early, if he is still alive now, Song Yixiao guarantees that when he frees up his hands, he will definitely get him killed with his own hands!!!!
Otherwise it would simply be hard to quell her hatred!
However, she knew that now was not the time to be angry, and after exhaling a long breath, she said in a deep voice, “Since the true master of ‘Follow the Wind’ has been Gu Shao for a long time, what’s the use of you looking for me now?”
