This is the courtyard where Su Yi and Su Xu live.

Su Xu listened to the servant's report, his face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "This Liu is now just a dog beside that bitch Su Huan, and she even wants to be promoted to the legal wife of my father and become our stepmother."

Su Yi also had an unpleasant expression on his face. Just looking at Liu's attitude towards Su Huan, she was completely obedient to Su Huan's orders. If they really let Liu become their father's legal wife, and then waited until Liu gave birth to a son, then their status would really be shaken.

After all, with the mind of that little bitch Su Huan, she would wish them bad things for sure and would definitely do something behind their backs. Once Liu gave birth to a son, coupled with their father doting on Liu and Su Huan plotting behind their backs, their status would no longer be the same as before because of previous events and the fact that their mother was no longer around.

Although they were eliminated from the Emperor Star Academy, their father did not blame them and even made arrangements for them to go out and gain experience later. However, these things would have had an impact on their father's mind. If the Liu family's matter had been allowed to proceed smoothly to the end, by the time they went out for experience and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the world of the Prime Minister's Mansion would have been completely changed.

There is no place for them to stay.

Seeing his elder brother in deep thought, Su Xu asked, "Brother, what exactly are my sister's plans? The longer these things drag on, the more uneasy I feel. I really want to deal with them as soon as possible."

Su Yi: "What you think is what I think, but things are not that simple. Don't act rashly."

Su Xu: "Are we just going to do nothing and just wait and watch Liu become father's legal wife smoothly, and we have to call her stepmother from now on?"

Su Yi: "She is delusional. It's not that the date has not been determined yet, let alone before that. Even if there is a mistake on the day of her promotion, then the matter will be considered a success. The previous incident at the Imperial Star Academy was because we were too anxious, and that's why we fell into the trap of that bitch Su Huan. Now we have to be extremely careful and not allow the slightest mistake. Let's wait and see what arrangements my sister has. This time, we have to discuss it carefully."

Su Xu: "By the way, what about grandma? Does grandma really not care about anything anymore?"

Su Yi: "Grandma is powerless. It is not convenient for her to side with us in this matter. Otherwise, she will be going against father."

Su Xu: "Then it's not a bad idea to help us secretly."

Su Yi: "Although our grandmother has always been very partial to my brother and me, that was when our mother was still alive, and we were still in the Imperial Star Academy at that time, with a promising future. Now that our mother is gone, we don't have a clear future. Grandmother did all this because of my sister's status as Princess Jing."

"Grandmother is the oldest person in the Prime Minister's Mansion. If there is no solid and reliable interest involved, do you think she will let herself get involved in this mess? Besides, Grandmother also tried to stop it before, but was pushed back by Su Huan. This is what Father wants, and Grandmother will never go against him."

After listening to this, Su Xu understood that what they did was for their own sake.

Seeing Su Xu was silent, Su Yi said slowly, "Don't rush into anything from now on. Even if things are tense, you have to think twice before you act. No matter what, we still have the relationship with Prince Jing."

Su Xu nodded, "Yes, brother, I understand."

Su Yi: "Let's see what my sister is planning. We brothers and sisters must discuss it carefully and never fall into other people's traps again. What we do must be beneficial to us and not put ourselves in a difficult position. We can't afford to disappoint our father again."

Su Xu remained silent and said nothing more.

……

This way, Fuxitang.

Nanny Xu was standing by, holding a cup of tea and passing it to the old lady, and whispered, "Old lady, this concubine Liu is becoming more and more blatantly leaning towards the eldest lady. She doesn't even try to avoid people. I guess everyone in the mansion knows that concubine Liu is the eldest lady's person."

Madam Su took a sip of tea, sighed, and said, "Ever since the power of the housekeeper fell into Liu's hands, she has never avoided it. Now the entire Xiangfu backyard is controlled by Liu. Everyone in the upper and lower levels knows what is going on. Moreover, Liu is pregnant and will soon be promoted to the position of mistress of the Xiangfu."

Madam Xu: "Madam, the eldest and second young masters..."

Madam Su: "I have already said that Liu was promoted to the position of the wife. I have no way to stop this. As for what Xuan'er and her siblings want to do, that is not something I can interfere with. I have said that if they want to fight, then let them fight. I will not interfere."

Aunt Xu: "Old Madam, are you really choosing to temporarily leave the Prime Minister's Mansion in order to avoid all this?"

Madam Su: "This is the best way. Let's talk later. Don't make any mistakes."

Madam Xu: "Yes, I understand. I know how to speak in front of the Prime Minister."

Madam Su: “Yes.”

Madam Xu: "Madam, I just feel that, given your status, even if you..."

Madam Su: "It's cleaner this way. Su Huan is not someone you want to mess with. Xuan'er doesn't want to let it go either. Liu's promotion is just a fuse. There will be a lot of things to come. I don't want to get involved. Since you've chosen to withdraw, then withdraw completely."

Nanny Xu said nothing more.

Not long after, a servant came in and reported that the Prime Minister was coming.

Su Bingyan walked forward and bowed to the person sitting in the upper seat, "Mother."

Madam Su: "Okay, no need to be polite, sit down and talk."

Su Bingyan stood up and sat down next to him. "As soon as my son returned home, he heard from the servants that his mother wanted to see him for something, so she asked him to come over."

Madam Su: "Well, there is something I want to tell you. I plan to go to Lingchan Temple to meditate and worship Buddha for a while."

Su Bingyan: "Mother goes there quite often, so you can just let someone arrange this matter. Why did you specifically tell your son about it?"

Madam Su: "This time it won't be a short period of time, it will take at least two or three months."

Su Bingyan: "So long?"

Madam Su: “Even longer.”

At this time, Aunt Xu quickly agreed, "Prime Minister, the old lady had a dream last night. She dreamed that the Buddha was guiding her to go to the Buddhist temple to meditate and worship Buddha. Prime Minister, you know that the old lady believes in Buddhism, and this kind of thing cannot be vague."

Su Bingyan: "But, mother, the day when Liu will be promoted to the principal wife has been confirmed. It will be on the 28th of this month. Mother, you..."

Madam Su said bluntly, "You are the head of the Xiangfu. This matter is a matter of your word. Just make the decision. When the time comes, go to the ancestral hall to worship and announce the news to the public. It will be the same whether I am here or not."

Su Bingyan: "Since mother has made up her mind, I won't say much. I will have someone arrange everything for you."

Madam Su smiled and said, "You are so thoughtful. I am worshipping Buddha at Lingchan Temple to pray for the Su family."

Su Bingyan: "Thank you, mother."

Madam Su: "This is what we should do."
