At night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

A row of sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the palace was blown by the breeze, sending out a sweet fragrance.

Jiang Zhu was followed by two people, one was the bodyguard sent to her by Shen's father who said he would come with her.

Not a bodyguard, exactly, but a mobile listening device.

And standing beside her was the doctor she brought over.

The reason Jiang Zhu told Father Shen that he wanted to go to the palace was to bring a doctor to see her father, and this doctor was Su Xin Yannv disguised as a man.

Su Xinyan was wearing a white coat today, and her fine figure was covered by the big and fat white coat.

She wore a wig, a pair of bulky eyes, and a heroic makeup. With her natural acting skills, she looked like a very professional doctor.

Even the bodyguards who came with Jiang Zhu didn't realize that the person in front of them was a woman.

When he arrived at the emperor's bedroom, Jiang Zhu asked the man to wait in the middle of the courtyard.

Then he ordered the guards outside the king's bedchamber to keep an eye on this man so that he could not overhear her conversation with her father.

That person couldn't get close to the king's bedroom, so he could only watch Jiang Zhu and the doctor go in and worry.

"Father."

The king was surprised by Jiang Zhu's arrival, and he got up from the bed without even changing his clothes.

"How did you come here, who is this?"

Su Xinyan smiled and walked up to the king: "King, look carefully, don't you recognize me?"

The king was very familiar with this voice, and it was also a woman, but the man in front of him was obviously a man. After a long while, the hand he was pointing at was trembling: "You are Su Nian's sister."

"That's it."

After hearing this, the king glared at her angrily, and wanted the guards to come in.

Jiang Zhu immediately rushed over and hugged the king's hands, then looked out the door in fear.

"Father, listen to me, I can marry the Shen family, but you have to think carefully, is it the Shen family?" Jiang Zhu asked softly.

The reason why she did this was also to test the king.

If it was before, her father would have called someone in and thrown Su Xinyan out, but not today.

Jiang Zhu had a little bit of hope, hoping that his father would regret it.

"Only he can save the future of our Jiang country. I'm not afraid to tell you that when your grandfather was in power, the national treasury was already very empty. The Shen family is a chess piece left by him, which can strengthen our Jiang country's economy, so , child, I can only wrong you."

Jiang Zhu had tears in her eyes, she had heard about these things that night, but it was different from what the king said.

"This problem can only be solved if you marry into the Shen family. In the future, your child will inherit the Shen family's property, and I will pass on the throne to him. In this way, the Shen family's property will still belong to the state in the end."

When Su Xinyan heard this, she laughed "puchi".

The king stared at her fiercely: "What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh at your naivety. Do you think the Shen family doesn't know your intentions? When you calculate the Shen family's property, he just wants to inherit the status of the royal family and strengthen his own power. At that time, his influence will be stronger than that of you, the king." When you are still older, do you think you can hold him back?"

"Hmph, no matter what you say today, I won't listen." The king said with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Zhu looked at Su Xinyan anxiously, and Su Xinyan gave her a comforting look.

Then she walked to the king: "King, I believe my brother made it very clear when he came to you last time, he wants to cooperate with Jiang Guo, and the business opportunities he brings to Jiang Guo will not be smaller than Shen's. "

"I also rejected him. If you want to say those words again, it's still free." The king raised his hand, not wanting to continue with Su Xinyan on that topic.

"My brother has already said those words, and I won't say them again." Su Xinyan smiled and walked to the king, "I don't think the king trusts the Shen family 100% either."

The emperor's family is always suspicious. Su Xinyan's words were just speculation, but the king's reaction told her that she was going in the right direction.

The king's eyelashes fluttered.

"The old king left a Shen family as a chess piece, but the appetite of this chess piece has been raised, and it is so big that it can affect the economic situation of the whole country. Has it been separated from the chess piece itself? The chess piece should be obedient and obedient. , Will King Shen’s family listen to you?”

After Su Xinyan said this, the king's expression changed.

The value of the Shen family has increased dozens of times in the past few days. Although he still respects him as a king on the surface, privately, he has also heard that he has long been domineering in the states, but no one can shake him whether it is power or the economy. got his place.

So those people can only suffer from being dumb.

The king refused to speak for a long time, and had already let Su Xinyan know what to do next.

"To tell you the truth, King, I came here today to discuss cooperation with you, but also to ask for marriage for my eldest brother." Su Xinyan performed Jiang Guo's salute. She put one hand on her chest and bowed lightly.

The blood in Jiang Zhu's whole body was flowing back on his face, what was the proposed marriage, what nonsense was Xiaoyan talking about, how could Shang Yuan be possible.

Seeing that Jiang Zhu was at a loss, Su Xinyan released a "wink" towards Jiang Zhu while the king's back was facing her.

Jiang Zhu heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt very disappointed.

"Nonsense! Ah Zhu will marry Shen Wei in two days!" the king said angrily.

Jiang Zhu was startled, and raised his index finger to his mouth: "Father, please keep your voice down, the Shen family is outside, he should know you are so loud."

The king said angrily: "You go back to the palace, but he still has people following you."

Jiang Zhu pursed his lips aggrievedly.

The king looked even angrier.

Su Xinyan added fuel and vinegar and said: "King, you don't even know that Shen Wei doesn't like Jiang Zhu. It's clear that he wants to use his status as the royal consort to expand his business kingdom. At that time, it will not be the Shen family who are the pawns of the royal family, but the royal family. It is the bridge of the Shen family, and your plan may be in vain."

However, what she said was not entirely false. With the wolf ambition of the Shen family, there were indeed signs of development in this area.

Furthermore, her brother was still investigating the piece of land that Wen Zhenrong had photographed before. The Shen family was so secretive and didn't develop the land after they got it. There must be a lot of secrets.

Seeing that the king's expression was a little loose.

Su Xinyan suppressed the ecstasy in his chest, and said calmly: "My brother Su Nian is already involved in an energy transformation project. If this project is successful, it will definitely bring new business opportunities to Jiang Guo."

"That's your Su family's business."

"As long as the king is willing to marry the princess to my elder brother Shang Yuan, the profits from the new energy transformation will belong to us, and we will not accept any of them. We will donate all of them to the national treasury!"

Rao was the king, and he was unavoidably shocked when he heard such negotiation conditions.

"What did you say?" The voice trembled slightly.

Su Xinyan smiled and said: "I don't know if the king is willing to do this deal with all the profits after the new energy transformation for Princess Jiangzhu."

an hour later.

Shen Wei's people didn't wait until the princess came out, and kept wandering at the king's gate.

In case the princess ran away again, wouldn't he be too hungry to walk around?
The more he thought about it, the more something went wrong, the man rushed to the door, and before he could go up the steps, the door of the king's bedroom was pushed open from the inside.

Jiang Zhu wept softly, Su Xinyan saluted and bowed: "My condolences to the princess."

"When will my father get well?"

"The king has a heart problem. The specific reason needs to go to the hospital for a full-body physical examination, but according to my inference, it can range from a few days to half a month."

The bodyguard was confused, but he still took a step forward: "Princess, it's time for us to go back."

"Well, doctor, I won't send you off, you stay and take care of my father and king."

"Ok."

Jiang Zhu followed the bodyguards back to Shen's house, and together with Shen's house, the king's order came down. Because the king was unwell, the wedding in two days' time was temporarily canceled and the date will be fixed later.

Father Shen was caught off guard by the news and called Shen Wei home from the company.

Shen Wei fought with Su Nian all day, but only grabbed a few small projects.

He was so angry that he was pulling his tie when he got home.

"The dog that Su Nian raised is really troublesome."

Father Shen heard this sentence from a distance, and subconsciously frowned.

As soon as Shen Wei came back, he felt that the atmosphere was not right, especially his father's expression.

"what happened?"

"The king just said the wedding was postponed."

Shen Wei's face was livid: "Why the delay?"

"Because he's 'unwell'." Father Shen deliberately accentuated these two words.

"What kind of tricks is this old thing playing!" Shen Wei looked to the side and there was a bodyguard standing there, "What is this for?"

"He was the one who accompanied Jiang Zhu to the palace."

Shen Weidao: "What did the princess say when she saw the king?"

"The princess brought a doctor to see the king, but the subordinates were not allowed to approach the king's bedroom, and there was no way to hear what they said."

"Doctor?" Shen Wei read a sentence, and then his face turned livid.

Father Shen saw that his expression was not right and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Shen Wei was so angry that he wanted to curse: "When did you see the king see a doctor and bring a doctor? He just went to our hospital for a physical examination the day before yesterday. There is nothing wrong with him at all."

Father Shen's expression also changed: "He wants to regret the marriage?"

Shen Wei is very confused now.

"Describe what that doctor looks like."

"Not very tall, short hair, very gentle, brown hair."

The bodyguard wanted to continue talking, but was stopped by Shen Wei.

Things without much information, these are easy to cover.

Father Shen weighed it for a while, then turned around and gave Shen Wei an idea: "You go to see the king tomorrow and see if he is really sick or just acting."

Then he ordered to go down and ask someone to investigate, the doctor who helped the king see a doctor today.

Jiang Zhu heard the Shen family's father and son's conversation on the second floor, then hid behind the pillars, and passed all these to Su Xinyan.

At this moment, a servant passed by and called out, "Princess."

Jiang Zhu put his index finger to his mouth, and it was too late to stop it.

Shen Wei frowned, walked three steps at a time, ran from the first floor to the second floor at once, and grabbed Jiang Zhu's wrist who wanted to sneak away.

"Princess, why are you running?"
