stepson

Su Shihui didn't learn anything else in the past ten years, but in order to please his father, he had carefully observed Su Shunyu. Although he didn't know Su Shunyu's character well, he did understand a little bit.He looked at the furnishings of the study and guessed that his father must have made a secret cabinet in the study.After searching for a while, it really made him find the hidden account books and letters.

After looking through it carefully, Su Shihui was sweating from shock. If the emperor really found out about this, he would definitely ransack his home and exile. Su Shunyu was really responsible for the embezzlement of money and ink for disaster relief more than ten years ago.Seeing this, Su Shihui felt that it was not appropriate to hand over these things to Song Bingrui.He took the account book and went back to Songtao Courtyard, put it in a wooden box and hid it.

On the second day, he left the house early in the morning to find Song Bingrui, saying that Su Shunyu was willing to surrender.Song Bingrui was overjoyed, and made an appointment with Su Shihui. He wanted to meet Su Shunyu, and Su Shihui agreed.The two discussed some recent important affairs in the court, and Su Shihui saw that the sky was about to retreat, so he left.

Back to Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, Su Shunyu had already arrived home and was in the study.Su Shihui went to the door of the study and asked his servants to report.Hearing that his son wanted to see him, Su Shunyu frowned, he was so disappointed in Su Shihui.It's fine if he doesn't read well, and he's learned how to dress in sloppy trousers, and now he's even more eccentric, so it's no wonder he likes it.After thinking about it for a while, let Su Shihui come in. Seeing that Su Shihui made such a mess yesterday, he was sent to be locked up in Songtao Courtyard.Mrs. Yu has accumulated power in the backyard for a long time, and the servants of Songtao Court will definitely look down on Su Shihui. If they really want to deal with him, they will definitely make them kneel in the ancestral hall.

After Su Shihui entered the study, he greeted Su Shunyu first, and then said directly: "Father, the third son is very fond of father, and invited him to his other courtyard on the eighteenth of this month."

Su Shunyu raised his eyelids, his face full of impatience, "I didn't tell you, don't hang out with Song Bingrui anymore. The emperor would definitely not want to see me involved in the matter of seizing the heir, and our Weiyuan Hou Mansion has always been loyal to the emperor! The lineage of the prince seems to be beautiful, but it has already made the emperor suspicious, and his fight with the third prince has endangered Chao Gang, which has already made the emperor very dissatisfied."

It was rare to hear his father say so much, Su Shihui was slightly startled, and then thought that the third son was also someone who was going to fight for the throne, and although the eldest prince was his father, he was also an opponent, so he didn't take these things to heart.He said: "The third son is the third son, and the eldest prince is the elder son. Although they are father and son, their goals are the same. The son sees that the third son is a man of great talent. I hope father will think about it."

Su Shunyu seemed to have heard a joke, he sneered: "Whether the eldest prince can take the throne is still a matter of opinion, Song Bingrui just wanted to get in, are you kidding? Even if he has great talents, the emperor has so many talents." With your son here, when will you get his inconspicuous grandson?"

Su Shihui didn't bother to explain to him, this person was used to beating him, and he didn't like everything about him, their plan was better to let the third son tell his father, and he didn't want to be ridiculed in him. "Father, you can't be so full of words. What if the third son really wants to accomplish something? Also, I went into father's study yesterday and found some things that have been sent to the third son. Father, you can figure it out."

Su Shunyu stared at Su Shihui in disbelief, and said angrily, "What did you say?"

"The account book of the disaster relief silver corruption case is in the hands of the third son." Su Shihui said again, with his father's good temper, he would never take the initiative to mention this account book with the third son. As long as he doesn't mention it, it will definitely happen Not revealing.

"You are really my good son! I really underestimated you. I always thought you were an idiot, but I didn't expect that I would fall on Lao Tzu's body as soon as I made a move. You don't know that if the emperor finds out about the account book, we will wait for you in Weiyuan. Is the government going to confiscate the house and exile?" Su Shunyu became more and more angry as he spoke, he picked up the inkstone on the desk and threw it at Su Shihui.

Now that Su Shihui has his father's handle in his hand, he has grown a lot more courageous, he flashed in vain, the inkstone fell to the ground without breaking, and the ink spots splashed all over him.Hearing Su Shunyu say that he is an idiot, I still felt a little uncomfortable, and said, "As long as father surrenders to the third son, the third son will definitely not expose this matter. What is there to be afraid of?"

"You, get out!" Su Shunyu was so angry that he swept all the things on the desk on him, covered his head and kept muttering: "Injustice, injustice! Why did I give birth to such a son as you!"

Seeing Su Shunyu's fury, Su Shihui faintly felt a sense of joy in his heart.He said: "The son is also forced to do nothing. If the father had established his son as the son earlier, the son would not have made such a bad plan. Father remembers that this month the eighteenth and third sons are waiting for you in his other courtyard." Throwing these words , regardless of Su Shunyu's expression, he ran away in a hurry.

Su Zhaoxue didn't know how Su Shunyu was furious in Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, but when he learned that Song Yunxi was the emperor last night, he was covered in cold sweat and sat in the private room in a daze.He heard someone push the door open, and he looked up to see that it was Shang Xuanlie.

It turned out that after the guards who were sent back to Bei'an Prince's Mansion went back, Shang Xuanlie was worried, and wanted to sneak into Weiyuan Marquis Mansion to look for Su Zhaoxue when it was dark. He saw Su Zhaoxue getting into a carriage at the gate, and he went all the way. follow behind.When he arrived at the restaurant, Shang Xuanlie saw that the commander of the Ouchi bodyguard was standing outside the private room that Su Zhaoxue entered, so he stopped, hesitating in his heart, and found a place to stare at the private room.

It didn't take long to see the emperor came out of the private room, and the scholar who wanted to kill him was with him.Shang Xuanlie suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and after they left, he was worried when he saw that Su Zhaoxue hadn't come out, so he pushed the door open and entered.He immediately asked, "Do you know the emperor?"

Su Zhaoxue smiled bitterly and said, "I also guessed it just now. He said he knew my father."

"Your father?" Shang Xuanlie asked, "Who is your father? Didn't Aunt Liu marry a scholar from the countryside?" As soon as this remark came out, it felt inappropriate. Didn't this tell Su Zhaoxue to investigate him by himself?

Su Zhaoxue didn't care, he said: "My father is actually Su Shunyu's half-brother. At that time, my grandmother was the old waiter's concubine. After the old lady found out, she sold it. At that time, my grandmother didn't even I knew I was pregnant. I always felt that my father's death was not easy."

After hearing this, Shang Xuanlie said, "If you want to know what happened back then, I can help you investigate."

"Then thank you, brother." Su Zhaoxue knew that Bei'an Palace must have his own eyeliner, and he also wanted to know what the relationship between the emperor and Su Zimo was, and why the emperor still looked nostalgic?

Then Shang Xuanlie asked Aunt Liu why he asked him to go back to the mansion. Originally, he shouldn't ask more about these family matters, but Shang Xuanlie just wanted to find out, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable.Su Zhaoxue didn't think there was anything he couldn't say, so he told Shang Xuanlie about the strange attitudes of Su Shunyu and Aunt Liu.

"What's wrong with this? If you really want your father to know the emperor, the emperor must have asked Su Shunyu when he knew that you lived in the Marquis of Weiyuan. Su Shunyu would definitely treat you better in order to please the emperor. I'm asking for credit in front of you." Shang Xuanlie guessed.

"That's true." Su Zhaoxue thought for a while, then let go of the doubts in his heart, and asked, "Why are you here?"

"It's not because I'm afraid that you will be bullied when you go back to the Hou's mansion. I was just about to look for you at night, but when I saw you going out, I followed."

Hearing what he said, Su Zhaoxue's heart warmed slightly. In his previous life, he was not the only child of his parents and didn't get much attention, because he had a slightly indifferent personality and didn't have many friends.Being so cared by Shang Xuanlie, Su Zhaoxue's heart was filled with joy, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Seeing him smile, Shang Xuanlie said: "Okay, since you are fine, let's go back to the palace. I have asked the cook to prepare a table of good dishes. Let's have a good drink tonight." With their arms around Su Zhaoxue's shoulders, the two wanted to leave the house together.

Ming Bao who was standing in the corner completely ignored himself when he saw this person coming in, and said, "My lord, you don't want me anymore?"

Su Zhaoxue was startled, pushed Shang Xuanlie's hand away, stepped forward to hold Ming Bao's hand in embarrassment, and said, "Why? This is the son of Prince Bei'an, come with me to Prince Bei'an's mansion."

Seeing Shang Xuanlie's knife-like eyes on him, Ming Bao shrinks his neck and hides behind Su Zhaoxue.Seeing this, Su Zhaoxue patted Shang Xuanlie, "He is still a child, don't scare him."

"Where will it be?" Shang Xuanlie suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart for being disturbed, and planned in his mind how to get Su Zhaoxue to send Mingbao away.
