Saying goodbye to Su's Mansion, Tao Han said that he was going back to Tao's Mansion, so he wisely gave Xiao Jie and Su Yao a rare chance to be alone.
The carriage went all the way to the direction of Prince Qi's mansion. In the carriage, Su Yao leaned gently in Xiao Jie's arms. She didn't have the dignity and majesty of Princess Qi in the past, only the tenderness and lingering that a woman should have.
Anyway, there were only the husband and wife in the carriage, at this moment she didn't want to be Princess Qi anymore, she was just a wife who reunited with her husband after a long absence.
It's very strange, before she saw Xiao Jie, she clearly felt that she had a lot to say to her husband, but now she was leaning in her husband's arms, but she didn't know where to start, she just wanted to enjoy it quietly in his arms The tenderness of this moment.
Xiao Jie didn't speak either, but gently held his wife's hand, his eyes were full of tenderness and doting.
Maybe because the atmosphere in the car was a bit cold, Su Yao couldn't help but speak first: "Husband, what did grandfather just tell you?"
Xiao Jie smiled and joked, "He asked me if I wanted to be emperor."
Su Yao's delicate body couldn't help but startled, as if she woke up from the warmth of the two of them at once. She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking: "then how did you answer grandfather?"
Xiao Jie took a deep look at Su Yao and said with a smile: "Of course I told him that I, Xiao Jie, is also of the blood of the Tian family and the son of my father. Naturally, I want to be the prince, inherit the country of Daning, and protect my ancestors Foundation."
Su Yao pressed her lips tightly. Although she didn't say anything, she looked at Xiao Jie suddenly with a sad look.
Xiao Jie also noticed Su Yao's strange expression, and said softly: "What's the matter? Don't you want to be Daning's queen? "
Su Yao shook her head, sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to be a queen, I'm just worried about your safety. I've also read a lot of history books, and I know how dangerous the battle for succession is. I'm afraid that other princes will harm you. I am also worried that you will become a person who does not recognize your relatives by any means in order to fight for the throne."
Su Yao is in the capital, so he naturally heard that the princes have reached the point of fighting with each other in order to compete for the crown prince.
In order to prevent Zhao Wang Xiaozan from making meritorious deeds, King Xiaoheng of Chu could ignore hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in Huainan; The brothers of the compatriots are now in the same situation...
Su Yao is now worried about Xiao Jie every day. She is not only worried that Xiao Jie will be harmed by other princes, but also worried that Xiao Jie will kill other princes, leaving her with eternal infamy and being spurned by thousands of people.
Xiao Jie could see that Su Yao cared and cared about him. He had never allowed Su Yao to participate in his affairs before, just because he didn't want her to be frightened for him, but he had actually thought about finding a suitable opportunity to have a showdown with Su Yao. It's clear, after all, they are husband and wife, and they need to be of the same mind on such an important matter. Sometimes Su Yao may be able to help her.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jie couldn't help hugging Su Yao gently, and said softly: "I know you are worried about my safety, but you have to understand that since I was born in the royal family, many things are beyond my control, I just want to Staying out of the matter, my other brothers will not believe that I have no desire for the throne. I have no way out. If I can't become the prince of Daning and inherit the country of Daning, maybe the first thing the new emperor will kill when he ascends the throne is I, maybe not only me, but also you, Ke'er and Ran'er, maybe none of them can survive..."
"No! Husband, you have to promise me that you will never let anyone hurt the lives of Ke'er and Ran'er!"
Hearing Xiao Jie talk about her two children, Su Yao finally panicked and left Xiao Jie's arms all of a sudden, holding Xiao Jie's arms tightly with her hands, her eyes full of panic and pleading.
For her, Xiao Jie, Xiao Ke and Xiao Ran are the three most important people in her life now, and she will never allow anyone to hurt the three of them.
Xiao Jie nodded heavily, hugged Su Yao into his arms again, and said in a deep voice, "I have no way out. For you and for our two children, I will never lose the battle for succession."
Su Yao nodded in Xiao Jie's arms, and her eyes gradually became firm.
She thought of the concubine mother who committed suicide by taking poison. Wasn't she the victim of the struggle for the heir apparent?The husband is right, the battle for the heirloom can only be won but not defeated.
"What did grandfather say later?" Su Yao was suddenly a little nervous. She knew her grandfather too well. She was upright and hated party disputes the most. Although her husband was his grandson-in-law, he might not support her because of this relationship The husband seizes the heir.
At this moment, Su Yao even decided that if her husband couldn't understand her grandfather, she would bring her two children to persuade her in person. She didn't believe that her grandfather didn't care about the feelings of grandparents and grandchildren at all.
Xiao Jie smiled and gave her a relieved smile: "Don't worry, my grandfather said that not only himself, but also the Su family and his disciples will fully support me in entering the East Palace."
"Is it worth it?" Su Yao was both surprised and happy when she heard the words. She was a little surprised. She didn't expect that a person as upright and stubborn as her grandfather would make such a statement.
Xiao Jie smiled and said: "Yes, but he also emphasized that the reason why he supports me is not because I am his grandson-in-law, but because I govern Jiaozhou well, so I believe that I have the ability to govern the world well." ability."
Su Yao also smiled when she heard the words, which was in line with her grandfather's disposition. He has always recognized reason but not relatives.
But Xiao Jie seemed to think of something suddenly, and asked with a smile: "By the way, is there something awkward between grandfather and father-in-law?"
Su Yao couldn't help being taken aback when she heard the words, and asked doubtfully, "how do you know?"
Xiao Jie smiled slightly: "I guessed it, if you go to the Su Mansion suddenly today, the people in the mansion will definitely send people to inform the father-in-law and grandfather at the same time, but in the end the grandfather returned to the mansion, but the father-in-law has never been seen, I guess he It must be because I don’t want to see my grandfather.”
Su Yao nodded submissively, indicating that Xiao Jie's guess was correct, then sighed heavily, and told Xiao Jie about the quarrel between her father and grandfather because of the vacancy of the post of servant.
Xiao Jie naturally knew that his father-in-law was an official fan, and he was never willing to stay in the Imperial College as a pedant all his life. Now that his father has become Shangshu Zuo Pushe, but he has not been promoted, his heart is naturally extremely unbalanced. Saying that the matter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials is just a fuse.
However, he also knew that the reason why Su Hong was unwilling to promote his son was because Su Jing's talent and virtue were mediocre, and he was afraid that if his virtue was not worthy, there would be disasters, and in the end it would harm him instead.
However, Xiao Jie suddenly had a bold idea in his heart, so he smiled and said to Su Yao: "Actually, I have a way to mediate the conflict between them."
"Husband, is what you said true?" Su Yao was naturally overjoyed when she heard the words. She herself had a lot of headaches about this matter, but she couldn't persuade these two people at all. She didn't expect her husband to have a way.
Xiao Jie nodded and said with a smile: "The key to the problem now is that my father-in-law doesn't want to stay in the Imperial College anymore. Since my grandfather is determined not to promote him, then I will ask my father to appoint him as the deputy governor of Jiaozhou. I believe my father-in-law will also be willing." of."
Su Yao couldn't help but light up in front of her eyes. This is a good way to get the best of both worlds. It not only appeases her father, but also doesn't embarrass her grandfather.
Su Yao couldn't help leaning into Xiao Jie's arms, but her husband had a way.
But what Su Yao didn't know was that this was actually Xiao Jie's deliberate decision.
Ever since Cui Yin was framed by himself for questioning, the imperial court has not sent a new deputy governor to Jiaozhou. Xiao Jie also knew that his father was out of favor for him. I am also worried that sending a new deputy governor may be a hindrance, so that I will not be able to flex my muscles, or even ruin my own business.
Because the people's livelihood in Jiaozhou was originally poor, and the deputy governor had no real power, so the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not have any objections.
It's just that under his own governance, Jiaozhou has become the number one tax-paying state in Daning, and the deputy governor has naturally become a favorite. There will be many eyes on this position. If the deputy governor who I can't deal with goes to Jiaozhou, it's better to take the initiative to choose someone who will not hinder me to be the deputy governor.
And his father-in-law Su Jing is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. He is not capable, but the biggest advantage is that he obeys his own words, and he is not worried at all about competing for power and profit with him, and he doesn't have to worry about ruining his own affairs.
Also, it is impossible for me as a prince to stay in Jiaozhou forever, but I have put so much effort in Jiaozhou, and I will never give it up to others. Once I resign in the future, Su Jing is the most suitable successor, and I can definitely continue through him. Take control of Jiaozhou.
While the husband and wife were still enjoying this rare tenderness, there was a sudden commotion outside the car.
Xiao Jie lifted the curtain of the window and saw the people swarming towards the west city. He couldn't help being curious, so he asked the driver to stop the carriage and ask the people what happened.
Not long after, the coachman reported that King Xiao Huang of Qin arrived at Lijing Gate with his victorious troops who swept across the Western Regions.
"Husband, should we also go to Xicheng to see?" Su Yao felt a little uneasy. It was not a good thing for her husband to go out of the city to meet a prince with such a grand occasion.
Xiao Jie smiled, shook his head and said, "Why are we going to join in the fun? I just want to go home and see our Ke'er and Ran'er."
Seeing Xiao Jie so calm, Su Yao suddenly had a feeling in her heart that even if the sky fell, her husband would take good care of herself and her two children.
The carriage went all the way to the direction of Prince Qi's mansion. In the carriage, Su Yao leaned gently in Xiao Jie's arms. She didn't have the dignity and majesty of Princess Qi in the past, only the tenderness and lingering that a woman should have.
