Su Huan listened to her elder brother's words and smiled. She said, "Brother, you may think that it's not good for me to do something that will ruin my future. Besides, those two are my half brothers after all."

Shen Yanchu raised his hand and gently patted Su Huan's head, and said seriously: "Little sister can do whatever she wants. As long as she thinks that what she does is feasible, don't worry about other things. We will all stand on her side."

"As for the so-called half-brother, I have suffered all these years and all the things I have experienced in the Prime Minister's Mansion. In their eyes, they have never regarded me as their own sister. If that is the case, then I am an outsider and there is no need to care so much about it."

Su Huan smiled and agreed, "Yes, Grandpa, uncle, aunt, second uncle, second aunt, eldest brother, second brother, third brother, we are a family."

Shen Yanchu nodded seriously and said, "Well, don't worry, I will definitely help my little sister do what she asked me to do."

Su Huan: "With my eldest brother in charge, it will definitely be a piece of cake, but there is another thing we need to consider. No matter what, although the brothers Su Yi and Su Xu were both born to Zhu's second wife, they are also the legitimate sons of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Shen Yanchu: "I know what you are worried about, little sister. The Imperial Star Academy is the territory of that Grand Tutor Yan. This is a provocation to his authority. Even if you are the son of the Prime Minister, you will still be eliminated. Moreover, as far as I know, among our peers in the Imperial Star Academy, Su Yi and Su Xu have always had a lot of competition with the sons of the Yan family. If there is such an opportunity to eliminate the opponent, how can the Yan family not do it?"

Su Hua: "Brother, did you expect to go to the Imperial Star Academy when you return to Beijing, so you did some research in advance?"

Shen Yanchu: "Since we are back in Beijing, we have to do our homework in these areas. My grandfather is the president of Jiangnan Tianxing College, and he is as famous as Master Yan, the president of Dixing College. The emperor summoned my grandfather back to Beijing in order to integrate the world's literary world. The three of us brothers have been in Tianxing College. When we return to Beijing, we will not enter Dixing College to study, but it is inevitable to communicate with the literati and students there."

Su Huan: "Brother, in the capital, power is dazzling. I'm afraid that places like the Imperial Star Academy are no exception."

Shen Yanchu jokingly said: "Why, are you planning to polish some retainers?"

Su Huan shook her head. "If I wanted these, I would definitely go to Grandpa. Why would I go to someone so far away? I just asked."

Shen Yanchu: "The Yan family has always advocated the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children. Based on this, we will choose the best one."

Su Huan smiled and said, "The current emperor is the eldest son of the previous emperor, so the Yan family firmly supported and followed him back then. In the end, the granddaughter of Grand Tutor Yan became the current empress."

Shen Yanchu: "Little sister, let's just talk about these things. Don't discuss them casually outside. In the court, the prime minister, the general, and the imperial censor are the three highest officials with great power. But Master Yan is the emperor's teacher. When the emperor ascended the throne, they highly praised him. The queen is also a daughter of the Yan family. The status and position of the Yan family is so high that even my uncle, your father the prime minister, has to avoid him."

Su Huan: "Okay, my elder brother has specifically warned me, I will definitely know my limits and won't say anything outside."

Shen Yanchu: "You."

While the brother and sister were chatting and laughing, not long after, the carriage stopped in front of the prime minister's residence.

I heard the groom's voice coming in from outside.

After Su Huan said goodbye to Shen Yanchu, she got off the carriage and went straight back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, her own courtyard.

Lan Yuexuan.

As soon as Su Huan came back, Liu came over.

Now that she has added a few capable servants to her courtyard, it is natural that Nanny Xia and Yunshuang no longer have to do the reporting of these matters.

Liu followed the maid into the room and saw Su Huan sitting on the main seat. She stepped forward and saluted, "I pay my respects to the young lady."

Su Huan: "Madam Liu, there's no need to be so polite. Please sit down and have some tea."

The maid brought the tea up, and Liu took it. She didn't rush to drink it, but looked at the person sitting upstairs and said, "Miss, today's Dragon Boat Festival family banquet in the mansion is really deserted. Because Zhu is seriously ill and dying, the mansion is full of gloom."

Su Huan took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Madam Liu came here just to tell me these things?"

Liu: "That's one of the reasons. I just want to say that it's a good idea for the young lady not to spend the Dragon Boat Festival at home today. But then again, the news of Zhu's death has spread, and the discussions that were boiling in the capital a while ago have gradually died down."

Su Hua: "The wife of a prime minister died. Father used these things to make sure they had some effect. Otherwise, her death would have been in vain."

Liu: "Zhu is really lucky."

Su Huan: "It is Madam Liu who is in charge of the affairs of the mansion now. My second sister is getting married soon, so I am sure there will be a lot of things to do."

Liu: "Miss, you are right. I am in charge of the affairs of the mansion according to the order of the Prime Minister. I also understand the matter of the storehouse. Therefore, the dowry prepared for Su Xuan and the betrothal gifts given by Prince Jing's Mansion before have all disappeared. This matter is quite a headache."

"Originally, according to Zhu's idea, in addition to the dowry prepared by the Prime Minister's Mansion, the betrothal gifts given by Prince Jing's Mansion were all to be taken away by Su Xuan. Now it is simply impossible to give such a generous and huge wedding gift."

Su Huan drank her tea with a sneer on her lips.

Liu caught a clue from it and had a bold guess in her mind: could it be that the accident in the warehouse of the prime minister's mansion was the work of the eldest lady?

Suddenly, she couldn't help but shudder all over. It was a hot summer day, but she always felt that the person in front of her was like an unbottomed abyss, which made her feel cold on the back.

He immediately picked up the still warm tea and took a sip to warm himself up a little.

"My dear lady, the old lady has started to use her own money to prepare a new dowry for Su Xuan. Aunt Xu beside the old lady is cooperating with me, but this is ultimately limited. The prime minister also said that he would select some farms, shops, and fertile fields from the prime minister's family to add to Su Xuan's dowry list."

Su Huan didn't take it seriously and said calmly, "Madam Liu, just go and do it as usual. You don't have to worry about the rest."

Liu: "Yes, Miss, if you have nothing else to say, I will take my leave first."

Su Huan: "Go ahead."

Liu saw it clearly. It was obvious that there would be a wonderful drama on Su Xuan's wedding day.

Then, Liu stood up and bowed as she was about to leave. After thinking for a while, she said, "I take the medicine that the young lady gave me on time every day. I can feel that my physical condition has improved a lot compared to before. I think I will be able to recover after taking the medicine that the young lady gave me."

Su Huan said "hmm".

Seeing this, Liu said no more and left.
