After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

The carriage quickly arrived at the gate of the Emperor Taisun's Mansion.

Su Qingcheng helped Lu Xuerou out of the carriage and was about to leave, when a palace maid hurriedly ran out of the mansion.

"Concubine the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince has been summoned into the palace urgently."

Lu Xuerou frowned: "Did you tell me why?"

When the palace maid saw Su Qingcheng, she hesitated whether to speak.

Lu Xuerou said softly: "Just say it's okay, my cousin is one of our own."

The palace maid then spoke: "I heard that Princess Huaining committed suicide in the dungeon, but was rescued by the patrolling imperial guards. When the imperial doctor treated her, she discovered that the princess was pregnant."

Lu Xuerou was shocked: "What?"

Su Qingcheng was not surprised that Princess Huaining was pregnant. The medicine she gave to Princess Huaining at that time was specially made to make her pregnant.

What's strange to her is that it's only been less than a month now, so why did the imperial doctor take her pulse?

There is something fishy about this matter.

The palace maid continued: "Then the Holy One summoned all the princes and princesses into the palace."

Lu Xuerou breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay, he should be back soon."

Su Qingcheng nodded in affirmation, told her a few words to pay attention to her body, then turned around and got into the carriage to leave.

Back at the palace, Su Qingcheng went straight to Ye Tantai's study.

Ye Tantai saw the person coming, put down the pen in his hand and leaned back on the chair, folded his hands on his chest and waited quietly for her to explain her purpose.

Su Qingcheng tentatively spoke: "The Holy One has called all the princes and princesses into the palace, why didn't the prince go?"

Ye Tantai smiled lightly, with no emotion on his face: "I'm not a member of the royal family. Is this why the princess came to me to ask?"

Su Qingcheng shook her head: "I think there is something strange about Princess Huaining's pregnancy at this time, and I wanted to ask the prince if he knows what's going on."

She went straight to the point and asked her concerns directly, because she knew Ye Tantai would understand.

Ye Tantai pursed his lips and tapped the table with his fingers: "Someone went to the dungeon to meet her last night."

The implication is that she was prompted to act in such a play.

Su Qingcheng guessed that Princess Huaining faked her suicide, but she didn't expect that she would fake a pregnancy in exchange for her release from prison, and the power of the person behind her should not be underestimated, as they could infiltrate into the dungeon.

Ye Tantai paused for a moment, then asked: "What do you think the princess is doing because the emperor summoned the prince and princess?"

Su Qingcheng didn't even think about it: "If nothing else happens, the Holy Emperor should be worried about finding an obedient consort for Princess Huaining."

There was a flash of surprise in Ye Tantai's eyes. Just before Su Qingcheng came in, the latest news from the hidden guards said that the emperor was discussing with the princes and princesses of various families to find a consort for Princess Huaining.

He kept his face low and pretended to ask: "Why won't the Holy Emperor let the imperial doctor get rid of this child?"

Su Qingcheng did not hide anything: "Princess Huaining blocked a knife for the Holy Emperor when she was a child. Her abdomen was injured and it is extremely difficult to conceive. If she is forced to have a fetus and hurt her body, I am afraid she will never be able to have children again."

Ye Tantai was shocked. Everyone knew that Princess Huaining blocked the emperor's knife, but the hidden guard had only discovered the injury to her abdomen not long ago.

How did Su Qingcheng find out? Ye Tantai couldn't understand.

What he didn't know was that Su Qingcheng could be said to be the person who understood Princess Huaining the best besides herself.

Princess Huaining relied on the emperor's guilt for her to take advantage of this matter. Not only did she get her out of the dungeon, but she also made the emperor try his best to clean up the mess for her.

Ye Tantai's pupils shrank: "Who does the princess think the emperor will choose to take over this hot potato?"

"That must be someone whose official position is not particularly high but not low either, and who obeys the royal family's instructions."

Ye Tantai looked at Su Qingcheng curiously, his eyes full of curiosity, wanting to know whose name Su Qingcheng would say.

After Su Qingcheng paused for a moment, he said firmly: "The son of Xie Dai, Minister of War, Xie Songjin."

Speaking of Xie Songjin, we have to mention Su Qingcheng's childhood.

Xie Dai and Su Qingcang were friends who died together on the battlefield.

The two decided to have a baby kiss for their unborn child, but it turned out that their first child was a son, so the matter was settled.

Later, Su Qingcheng was born, and Xie Dai tried his best to make his son please Su Qingcheng.

But Xie Song was born with a wooden head. If he was asked to give flowers, he would give chrysanthemums. If he was given jewelry, he would give old-fashioned wooden bracelets and hairpins.

When Su Qingcheng was a child, she hated him extremely.

Once he saw a butterfly on Su Qingcheng's skirt and wanted to drive it away, but accidentally pushed Su Qingcheng into the lake.

From then on, the Su family prohibited Xie Songjin from entering.

Xie Songjin's stupidity is inseparable from Xie Dai.

Xie Dai is famous for his foolish loyalty. Whoever the Holy Emperor is today is his master.

Therefore, in the emperor's view, the Xie family is obedient and can clean up this mess for Princess Huaining; in Princess Huaining's view, the Xie family has power and can make good use of it in the future.

The father and daughter have their own hidden agendas, but they both focus on the same person.

Su Qingcheng put away her thoughts and raised her eyes to meet Ye Tantai's appraising gaze.

She looked down and saw a piece of rice paper on Ye Tantai's desk with a corner blown up. There was only one word on the paper: thank you.

Ye Tantai looked confused: "I heard that the princess and Xie Songjin have a fate?"

Su Qingcheng was stunned, not expecting him to mention this matter: "It's just an old childhood incident. Mr. Xie and I are not familiar with each other."

Then, she said slowly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for clearing up the confusion."

Turn around and leave.

Ye Tantai, who was sitting on the chair, had gloomy eyes, a coldness on his handsome features, and a cruel smile on his lips.

Su Qingcheng returned to the room with mixed feelings.

With his rebirth, too many things have been changed invisibly.

She was able to free the originally unfortunate Princess Taihe from her shackles and pursue happiness, but she also dragged the innocent Xie family into this bottomless abyss.

If they hadn't dealt with Princess Huaining themselves, those people wouldn't have targeted the Xie family.

No matter what, the Xie family cannot be allowed to become victims of their power struggle...

Su Qingcheng couldn't sleep all night.

The next day.

The news of the emperor's marriage spread throughout the capital.

Princess Huaining and Xie Songjin, the eldest son of Xie, got married a month later.

Lu Xuerou was confused: "Why after one month?"

Su Qingcheng sat on the attic of Yipin Xianming and looked around the bustling market, and said calmly: "Because it is not possible to have sex before January."

"You mean they don't plan to tell the Xie family the truth? Let them raise the child in Princess Huaining's belly as a descendant of the Xie family?"

"Yes."

"Then the Xie family is too pitiful. Xie Dai was injured on the battlefield in his later years and was unable to have children. He only has a son like Xie Songjin."

Although Lu Xuerou also grew up in the struggle for power, the Lu family protected her very well, and seeing too much did not mean she could accept it.

"So, they can never succeed."

Su Qingcheng's pupils were as clear as crystal, transparent and clean.
