Emperor Yin De nodded affirmatively, "Continue."

"Royal secret guards must undergo strict training, and not every prince is qualified to train his own secret guards. Only those who have received His Majesty's grace can do so. As far as I know, this is not the same as the previous ones. Northern calendar and Wanjin are the same."

"But in the previous Bei Li, there was only one prince who was qualified to train his own secret guards." An Yi expressed his thoughts.

"Jingchen." Emperor Yinde said two words lightly.

"Yes." After An Yi finished speaking, he knelt on his knees and kowtowed, "Back then, my master asked his subordinates to kill Jingchen and all his subordinates. All his subordinates had already been dealt with. I don't know why another one like this appeared. If this person is really related to Jingchen, then he will be disgraced to his master."

Emperor Yinde sat there, silent for a long time, put away the testimony, and then ordered An Yi.

"I'm always relieved when you do things, but there are so many things involved in this matter, we can't just let it go."

"If he refuses to tell the truth, then lock him up first. After returning to the palace, take him to the secret guard camp for interrogation. He must not be allowed to die."

An Yi accepted the order, "Master, don't worry, my subordinates understand."

At the end of May, Shengjia was preparing to return to Beijing.

Although this matter has not yet come to a conclusion, the palace examination is coming soon, and Emperor Yinde must go back to preside over it in person, and he has to leave.

Emperor Yinde has been in a bad mood recently, but he still took Su Qingyao, Hui Zhaoyuan and the children to visit the Ji family before leaving.

After all, I don’t know when the next time we meet will be.

In the Ji family, besides Yi'an, the focus now is Su Qingyao's children.

After many days of practice, ten-month-old Chengjue and Yun Shu can already speak some simple words, especially the two words "Father~" can be said very clearly.

Everyone wanted to play with the talking doll just now. Now the Ji family was sitting around, listening eagerly to the two little guys calling themselves.

"Shu'er, this is great-aunt, please call me great-aunt." Su Qingyao teased Yun Shu in her arms with a piece of snack. She knew that Mrs. Ji was also looking forward to hearing the word "great-aunt."

Yun Shu opened her mouth, but the title was almost too long. "Aunt~aunt~father~" she said as she crawled into Emperor Yin De's arms.

This sentence made everyone laugh.

"You don't want to call me coquettish." Emperor Yin De smiled and took the little one over and let her sit on his lap. "Call me grandma again."

When Yun Shu saw that her father said the same thing, she simply tried again, "Aunt~aunt~grandmother~"

Nothing could satisfy Mrs. Ji more than these few words. She quickly took out a lot of jewelry to give to Xiao Yunshu.

"Yes~" Yun Shu looked at the rouge, those bracelets and necklaces and said quickly, fearing that it would be too late and these things were no longer hers.

"You are more positive now, please say thank you to my aunt and grandma." Emperor Yin De deliberately pushed the jewelry further away, teasing Yun Shu in his arms.

Seeing that those jewelry belonged to Sister An An, Yun Shu opened her mouth and said, "Thank you, great aunt~"

Then he raised his head and looked at his father, "Father, I want~"

"She has just learned to speak, so she wants this or that." Su Qingyao pinched her nose and put the jewelry in Yun Shu's arms, "Take it, don't drop it."

"Mother, take it~" This little guy knows how to arrange it.

"That belongs to the concubine." Su Qingyao held the jewelry in her arms. When Yun Shu saw that something was wrong, she said, "The concubine~ Shuer's."

On the other side, Cheng Jue, who was playing with paper cranes in Ji Xingyan's arms, laughed out loud when he saw this scene, "My sister is acting like a baby again."

Several children were playing in the outer hall, and Mrs. Ji brought Su Qingyao and Hui Zhaoyuan to the inner room.

After finally getting along with her family for such a long time, but having to say goodbye again, Hui Zhaoyuan felt that this month had passed really quickly.

"Xinxin, Yao'er, I don't know when we will meet next time. I just hope you will take good care of yourself and the children."

As Mrs. Ji spoke, she took out a small box. After opening it, there were two hairpins in the box.

"I don't have anything good to give you. I just ordered these two hairpins to be made recently. Each of you has one. If you accept my hairpins, promise me to take good care of each other." Mrs. Ji was reluctant to give up. said.

Hui Zhaoyuan smiled, picked up a hairpin, and put it on Su Qingyao's bun, and Su Qingyao did the same.

"Mom, don't worry, Yao'er and I will be fine."

Mrs. Ji pulled them to sit down, "Xingwang went to Beijing to take the exam. Now I really hope that he can go to high school, and it is best to stay in the capital. He wants to be the top scholar and an official. If he goes to high school, you can also do it in the future. Someone is taking care of you."

The two of them smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Ji patted Su Qingyao's hand, "Yao'er, if you need anything, you must tell sister Xinxin. If you can't solve it, you must write a letter. Although no one from the Ji family has joined the court as an official yet, the Ji family contributes to the court every year. Your Majesty sees all the money you offer."

"Mother." Hui Zhaoyuan motioned to Mrs. Ji to keep her voice down. After all, Emperor Yinde was sitting outside.

Mrs. Ji nodded, "I know everything. I just want to tell Yao'er that you are protected outside the palace."

Mrs. Ji didn't know about those things about the Su family, but it could be seen from Su Li's attitude towards the Ji family that maybe Su Qingyao, a concubine, was not taken seriously in the family.

As the wife of the richest man in Jiangnan, Mrs. Ji has met many people in the business world, so she believes that she will not guess wrong.

It seemed like a few ordinary words of concern, but no one had ever said it to Su Qingyao.

She looked into Mrs. Ji's eyes and nodded heavily, "Don't worry, aunt, Yao'er will be fine."

After a simple farewell, everyone embarked on the journey back to Beijing.

On the carriage, Su Qingyao opened the curtain and looked at the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. She didn't know when she would leave the palace next time.

When she just got on the carriage, Li Fuhai stopped her and said that Emperor Yin De wanted her to ride with him, but it was not convenient because Her Royal Highness the Princess was still there.

Su Qingyao smiled, not knowing how true or false this statement was.

But since Emperor Yinde has asked people in front of the emperor to pass the message, on the surface, she can only treat it as true.

But she knew in her heart that the person who invited her to ride with him was an emperor. Emperors are the most ruthless and affectionate, and may not be long-lasting.

If you want to gain a foothold in the palace, the most important thing is to be strong on your own.

As the carriage drove slowly towards the capital, Su Qingyao knew that there were countless overt and covert fights ahead to greet her.
