A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

Su Qingyu rolled her eyes at him, then walked to the table in the hall and served him the meal herself.

"It's boring to eat alone, so I'll wait for you, Third Master. Why are you so late?"

The two sat opposite each other, and Shen Zhixiu explained, "It was Uncle Zhao who came. I talked to him for a long time."

When Su Qingyu heard that it was Weiguogong Zhao Jingwu who came, she asked casually, "Why didn't you stay for dinner?"

Shen Zhixiu lowered his head and drank a mouthful of soup, then said with a smile, "He doesn't have time to stay for dinner. The Miao region has been a bit uneasy lately, and he's thinking about something important."

Su Qingyu paused while picking up the food. "Duke Weiguo wants to take action against Miaojiang? Are you sure?"

Since Emperor Taizu founded the country, the Miao border has never been peaceful. However, the terrain of the Qianzhou border is complex, and the Miao people have endless strange tricks. They can only defend, not attack.

As Shen Zhixiu picked up some food for Su Qingyu, he said, "We are still discussing it. He won't do it unless he is absolutely sure."

Last time at the Zhao family, when Su Qingyu was clearing out Su Yihui, he gave Zhao Jingwu a map of the Miao frontier defense. Zhao Jingwu has been thinking about this for more than half a year.

In addition, Song Hongshen and Li Yunzhou destroyed the Liao Kingdom and were crowned kings for their great achievements, which made Zhao Jingwu even more anxious. He was eager to deal a fatal blow to Miaojiang.

The next day, Su Qingyu went to Qingyuanju to pay her respects as usual.

When she entered the room, Aunt Hua came to greet her and said, "Greetings, Third Madam."

Su Qingyu held her up with her own hands, "Mammy is an old lady who serves my mother. You don't have to be so polite."

Aunt Hua knew that Su Qingyu was flattering her, but she still said respectfully, "Etiquette cannot be abolished."

It is one thing for the master to favor you, but a servant must never take advantage of the master's favor and lose sight of who he is.

As they walked towards the main room, Su Qingyu asked casually, "I heard that the princess had dinner here yesterday. Was it delicious? She is in the period of reaction now, so you have to be more careful with the food she eats."

Hearing this, Aunt Hua smiled and said, "We are having dinner here. The family is going to have more people, and the old lady is very happy about it."

"My princess is still able to eat now. I don't think this pregnancy is too tiring."

He looked towards the main room again and said, "The princess came early this morning and just helped the old lady get up. She is now talking to the old lady."

Su Qingyu's eyes flashed. Was Li Chaoyun too attentive?

When they arrived at the door, the little maid lifted the fine cloth curtain, and Nanny Hua went to prepare tea for Su Qingyu personally.

Su Qingyu stepped in and heard Li Chaoyun's voice before she saw anyone.

"When the child is born, if he is a boy, please teach him well and don't let him go astray."

"I am also responsible for the young master's affairs. If I knew he was doing that kind of thing, I would definitely stop him."

"It was during that period that he became estranged from me because of Jiang Chenyue's matter, and we rarely talked about these things."

At this point, Li Chaoyun's voice choked a little, and he continued, "To be honest with you, grandma, even the last time we slept together before he died, it was... I took the initiative."

In Li Chaoyun's mouth, she became a poor person who was despised by her husband. As for Shen Zhao and the prince's affairs, she knew nothing about them.

Su Qingyu sneered in her heart. The Li family had really fallen into decline. In the past, Li Chaoyun would not have bothered to say such pitiful words.

Now, for the prince, she is willing to do anything.

Yes, given the Li family’s current situation, there is no other way out if they don’t hurry up and support the prince to ascend the throne.

"Princess, you came so early. Are you feeling okay?" Su Qingyu walked in, pretending not to hear anything, and interrupted their conversation.

Li Chaoyun forced the tears in his eyes back the moment he saw Su Qingyu.

She looked at the old lady. As long as the old lady believed it, things would be easier to handle later.

But what she didn't know was that the old lady didn't take what she said to heart at all.

The matter of Shen Zhao is over, and it is a blessing for the Shen family that the emperor did not pursue it.

As for whether Li Chaoyun was involved, the old lady didn't care much. To her, as long as Li Chaoyun gave birth to the child safely, nothing else mattered.

After Su Qingyu sat down, she started talking to the old lady about Shen Yue's marriage.

The emperor has ordered the Imperial Observatory to look at a date these days. But no matter how you look at it, it has to be within a hundred days of the funeral, which is less than two months at most.

Fortunately, Prince Ning’s Mansion has been renovated and Shen Yue’s dowry has been prepared.

A wedding during the mourning period cannot be a grand affair, and many customs and ceremonies must be simplified. Therefore, the two families do not need to prepare much.

Soon Yang also arrived, and the few of them discussed the details of Shen Yue's marriage.

Li Chaoyun was embarrassed and sat aside without saying much. Of course, there was no extra emotion on his face, as if he was listening to the gossip of irrelevant people.

Hearing that Xiangdong had already prepared a dowry for Shen Yue, Li Chaoyun finally found an opportunity to speak.

"Grandma, although Madam Xiang is the second wife recognized by father, she is from a poor family after all. I'm afraid she is not competent for these matters."

"Grandmother, if you trust me, you might as well leave these matters to me. As the third sister's marriage, I, as her sister-in-law, will have to take care of these matters."

"My parents-in-law are gone now. They say the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. This is also my responsibility."

When Li Chaoyun said this, she was slightly arrogant. She was a princess appointed by the emperor himself, and her mother was a princess of the current dynasty. How could she not be better than a successor who was born as a housekeeper?

Her words made the old lady feel much more relieved. No matter what, it was good that she had such intention.

Su Qingyu didn’t know what the old lady was thinking, but she would not give Li Chaoyun this opportunity.

So before the old lady could say anything, Su Qingyu spoke first.

"It would be great if the princess could help Shen Yue with these matters. But the most important thing right now is the baby in the princess' belly. Even if the wedding is simple, there are still many things to deal with. If the baby gets miscarried, we will regret it to death."

"Shen Yue's marriage involves my second sister-in-law and me. We will never let the Shen family down."

The old lady nodded and said, "Qingyu is right. You should take good care of your pregnancy. No matter how serious the matter is, there is no reason to let a pregnant woman worry about it."

Shen Zhao only has this one bloodline. If anything goes wrong, it will be terrible.

Of course, the old lady was also concerned about the relationship between Li Chaoyun and Ning Wang Su Yuanzhou, and did not want such a good marriage to be disrupted.

Afterwards, Li Chaoyun mentioned several businesses of the Shen family's eldest branch, and expressed his concern that Xiangdong would not be able to handle it well.

Su Qingyu also took over the conversation, "Don't worry, Princess. There are still useful people around the Third Master who can help deal with some things."

"Princess, just take care of your pregnancy. In a few years, the two young masters of the first house will be able to take care of these matters."

Li Chaoyun was so angry at Su Qingyu's words that she gritted her teeth. Seeing that the old lady didn't support her, she became even more anxious.

I feel that Su Qingyu is more and more difficult to deal with.

It seems that this matter has to start with Aunt Xiang, and we have to find another way.
