Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Jiang Fenghua said slowly, "Since I was young, I have heard my father praise the prince for his talent in both civil and military affairs. He was smart and capable since he was young. He once entered the Imperial College to fight against many students and became famous in one battle. Later, the Hu tribe gathered 300,000 troops to attack the Great Zhou. The enemy army was unstoppable and the cities of the Great Zhou were conquered one after another. His Royal Highness Prince Heng, who was only 15 years old, led a dozen people to infiltrate the enemy camp and captured the enemy leader alive. The Hu tribe retreated, and the prince won a beautiful battle for the Great Zhou Dynasty. The prince is so brave and extraordinary, and it is also the credit of the mother's careful teaching."

When mentioning Xie Shang's past great achievements, Empress Cheng's eyes flashed with pride. However, when she thought that her son's outstanding talents were not valued by the emperor, her brows furrowed. She thought that Shang'er was not loved by the emperor because of her.

A trace of doubt flashed across Jiang Fenghua's tender face, "What happened to my mother?"

"Shang'er is now completely focused on that woman, and this gives me a headache." She glanced at Jiang Fenghua and took her hand directly, "So you should pay more attention to Shang'er."

"I think the prince will understand the queen mother's painstaking efforts. There is a saying among the people that one should get married first and then establish a career. Before the prince got married, his mind was naturally scattered, and it was understandable that the emperor was not confident in entrusting him with important tasks. Now it is different. As long as Concubine Su enters the palace, the prince will be diligent and motivated."

After hearing this, the Queen's mind suddenly became clear and her eyes brightened. "This is a good idea. Let Shang'er seek a job in front of the Emperor. The Emperor was unwilling to entrust him with important tasks before, but now it is different. Shang'er is married, and he is an adult. It is impossible for him to be idle all day. The Emperor has no reason to refuse."

"In fact, there is no need for any important tasks at the moment." Jiang Fenghua said.

The queen frowned, "What do you mean?" Now that the crown prince has not been appointed, all the kings are vying for merit and performance, so Shang'er naturally has to make great contributions.

"Now that the world is at peace, the prince only needs to stay by His Majesty's side to share His Majesty's worries. Shengjing has countless affairs, big and small. With His Majesty's intelligence and talent, I believe he will be able to handle them easily. If His Majesty handles his official duties properly, His Majesty will naturally be happy."

The Queen's pupils dilated. As expected, she was the daughter of the Young Master and had insight. It was better to keep her under the Emperor's nose than to let her go far away. She said in a gentle voice, "Which position do you think Shang'er is suitable for, Ruan Ruan?"

"I heard that there is a vacancy in Shengjing right now, the position of Jingzhao Prefecture Governor. I think Your Majesty is just right for the job. You can go and hone your skills and wait for Your Majesty to use you." Jiang Fenghua's eyes lit up. She found him a job to do so that he wouldn't have to spend all day with Su Tingwan.

After hearing this, the Queen suddenly stood up from her seat and said, "When Your Majesty was still the Crown Prince, you also served as the Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. This position is good. I will go to the Imperial Study to ask for permission immediately. Ruan Ruan, you can play in the palace for a while first."

Empress Cheng was afraid that this lucrative position would fall into the hands of another prince and she would lose the opportunity, so she asked Nanny Xi to dress her up again. She also ordered Nanny Xi to get a bowl of soup from the kitchenette and put it in the food box before going to find the emperor.

Jiang Fenghua hurriedly stood up to see her off, and only after the Queen had gone far away did she stand up straight and walk out of the main hall gracefully.

She remembered that Xie Shang was made the crown prince because he would put on armor again a year later to repel the attack of the Hu barbarians. Xie Shang fought beautifully in that battle and later made contributions to flood control, showing extraordinary ability. The emperor was very pleased, so he was made the crown prince.

But this year, after he and Su Tingwan got married, they fell in love with each other and their relationship warmed up...

At the same time, Xie Shang went straight to the horse farm after leaving Kunning Palace. At this time, he didn't know that his wife had found him a job that was both troublesome and cumbersome. Even if he had no official duties in the future, Jiang Fenghua would create official duties for him and make him perform well in front of the emperor.

A chestnut horse was galloping on the racecourse, and a heroic woman in red was skillfully controlling the reins.

Xie Shang looked over and wanted to call her to stop but she couldn't hear him because they were too far away, so he rode a horse and chased after her.

Xie Shang was a very good horseman. When he caught up to Su Tingwan, he tightened the reins and explained, "Wan'er, don't be angry. Jiang Fenghua and I are innocent..."

Su Tingwan's eyes were slightly red, and she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall. "I'm not angry. The prince married the princess, so he should live a good life with her. I want to go home, back to the general's mansion on the border."

Xie Shang was anxious, he abandoned his horse and rushed to Su Tingwan's horse: "You said you were not angry, what should I do if you go back? I can't disobey the imperial decree of my father to grant us marriage. Marrying her is just a temporary measure. Wanwan is the only person I like."

Su Tingwan didn't act pretentiously, her eyebrows were full of joy, and she got into Xie Shang's arms, "A Shang, is there really nothing going on between you and her?"

"I swear..."

Su Tingwan quickly covered his mouth and said, "I don't want you to swear, I just want you to love me with all your heart and only have me in your heart."

"Okay, I promise that you are the only one in my heart." He agreed with tenderness in his eyes.

"It's a pity that your mother doesn't like me, otherwise she wouldn't be so eager to marry you a princess." Su Tingwan's eyes were full of disappointment. "Ah Shang, I really gave up a lot for you. I could have not married you as a concubine. There are many men in our place who proposed to me, and I could have been their legal wife, but you are the only one in my heart, and I can't bear to be separated from you."

Xie Shang felt more and more satisfied. The Su family would never marry their daughter to someone else as a concubine. He promised that if he could reach the top in the future, he would give her the best.

The Su family also knew that among the many princes, Prince Heng had the greatest chance. If it weren't for the bad relationship between the Queen and the Emperor, with Prince Heng's talents, the Emperor would have made Prince Heng the Crown Prince long ago.

In addition, since Concubine Su had no prince, she had no chance to meet the Queen Mother. If the Su family wanted to survive, they had to find another way. Unexpectedly, the Queen intervened and forced another woman to sit on the throne of Princess Heng.

Su Tingwan was deliberately angry, "But why are you still hugging her!"

"How could this king hug her?"

"I saw it all. You hugged her." Su Tingwan said coquettishly, "Is she pretty?"

Xie Shang's mind flashed through Jiang Fenghua's stunning appearance. His body stiffened and he was stunned for a moment, "Is everything okay?"

“Is she prettier than me?”

Xie Shang couldn't answer. In his heart, Su Tingwan was the best, not just because she was beautiful. When he liked someone, he would not care whether she was beautiful or not. He just wanted to like her simply.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Su Tingwan seemed to have something stuck in her heart. She raised her face and said confidently, "I am the most beautiful girl on our grassland. You must remember that you married the most beautiful girl on the grassland. It is your blessing that I can marry you."

What she said was so shameless. No wonder the queen didn't like her. No matter how arrogant a person is in the world, who can be more arrogant than the prince?

Xie Shang didn't care either. He just thought that she was cheerful and had no schemes. He liked such confident girls. He said, "Yes, so I look forward to the day when Wanwan marries me."

She took the initiative to kiss his lips, "Ah Shang, you have to promise me that no matter how beautiful she is, you are not allowed to like her."

"I don't like her," he answered affirmatively.

"She is not allowed to like you either." Su Tingwan was complacent, "But my Ah Shang is so handsome, there is no way she would not like you."

A strange feeling flashed through Xie Shang's mind. Jiang Fenghua really didn't like him, and she even took the initiative to arrange their marriage.

He thought to himself: Jiang Fenghua was right. He and Su Tingwan were having an affair without a matchmaker. I'm afraid my father will be even more disappointed in him.

After riding for a while, he suddenly said, "Let's go back!"

Su Tingwan paused and said, "Are you going back so soon?" A Shang was not like this before. Could it be because of Jiang Fenghua that he cared about her?

"I still have to pay my respects to my father." His voice became cold and gave people an unquestionable sense of oppression.
