Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Su Xuan did not respond, but just listened to Xie Shang pointing at the sand table and making precise analysis, talking slowly.

Over the years, the emperor has not given Prince Heng the opportunity to put on armor and go to war, otherwise the territory of the Great Zhou would not be limited to this.

The emperor's vision is still too short-sighted. Prince Heng has ideals and ambitions. If Su Tingwan is useless, the Su family has other daughters who can be sent to serve him.

At this time, Jiang Jinyan also brought news from Shengjing. In addition to the fact that supplies were on the way, he also brought another piece of news, "The princess was assassinated, and something happened in the Duke Zhang's mansion..."

After Xie Shang heard this, his eyes were like a ball of fire, burning fiercely, "Who would lay a hand on the princess? How about Ruan Ruan and the child?"

Jiang Jinyan added, "Fortunately, the princess had someone by her side, and the assassin failed. She and the young master are both safe, but the two elders of the Zhang family were not so lucky."

"The letter said it was Ji Chen. He hired assassins, but all the assassins committed suicide by taking poison after being caught. They were not ordinary assassins, but were kept as death squads." Jiang Jinyan glanced at Su Xuan. He also received another letter written to him separately. Ruan Ruan suspected that Su Xuan was the man behind the scenes, but there was no evidence.

After hearing this, Xie Shang already felt that this assassination was not simple, because the person who could keep the assassins was not simple.

"The world is so big, there are many people who can afford to support assassins, but those who want to kill Ruan Ruan..." He thought of the Su family. Besides, after Ji Chen came out of Prince Heng's Mansion, he entered the Su Mansion.

He said calmly, "Ji Chen doesn't have the ability to hire a killer." He knew that Ji Chen had no money and his family couldn't afford it.

"Who could it be?" Jiang Jinyan asked.

Su Xuan said in a deep voice, "I seem to have heard Wanwan mention the name Ji Chen. He and the prince are sworn brothers. Why would he hire someone to assassinate Princess Heng? He has no hatred or grudge against the princess. It really doesn't make sense."

If Jiang Fenghua had killed Ji Chen at that time, he would have had something to say, but Jiang Fenghua did nothing. Even after seeing what happened to the Zhang family, she did not do anything to Ji Chen. It can only be said that she was too patient.

"I'm also wondering who wants to kill my wife and children." Xie Shang's eyes were like sharp blades, filled with strong murderous intent.

"Lin Feng." Xie Shang said directly.

"exist."

"Send a message to Ye Ying and ask him to send someone to protect the princess." Xie Shang didn't want to offend the Su family now, and he couldn't make random guesses without any evidence.

The reason why he thought of the Su family was because of the harm that Su Tingwan and Concubine Su had done to Jiang Fenghua, which made him think of the Su family first.

Su Xuan did not respond. After all, Su Tingwan had been in the palace taking care of the sick, and her grandmother had also returned to the border with them, so the Su family had completely left them alone.

-

Shengjing, Zhang Mansion.

Jiang Fenghua has not gone back since she left the palace. She went straight back to Prince Heng's Mansion. Due to health reasons, she only comes here occasionally. The Zhang Mansion is handling the funeral, and now the two old people have been buried. According to etiquette, Zhang Yumo can return to the Jiang family, but she is too sad and has stayed in the Zhang Mansion and refused to leave. Jiang's mother also runs back and forth, and she is very tired.

"Mom, your health is important. You've been tired for so many days, so just stay home and rest." Jiang Fenghua said with concern.

"I just want to spend more time with your sister-in-law. Such a big thing happened and your brother is not with her. She is the most vulnerable and sad now." Feng Jingyuan took her daughter's hand and said, "You should not tire yourself out. Let the people below take care of the affairs of Jishan Hall. You are pregnant now."

A few days ago, she didn't let her daughter come because she was afraid it would be bad for the baby in her belly.

"It's okay, my daughter is not tired. We have the help of the Second Prince and the Third Princess. They are the main force. Now the supplies have been sent out. As long as nothing goes wrong on the road, they can be delivered to the prince in half a month." Jiang Fenghua chatted with her.

Because the Fourth Prince was also busy with this matter, he actually brought the Fourth Prince's Consort along as well. However, the Fourth Prince's Consort was from the Zhang family, and with such a big thing happening to the Zhang family, she found an excuse to come to the Zhang family to observe mourning.

Zhang Yumo has been eating little and talking very little these past few days. It is normal for her to be sad and upset after two of her relatives died in a row. If such people cannot be resurrected, she doesn't know how to persuade them. After all, they are not her parents, and the incident did not happen to her.

Ji Chen has been locked up in jail. No matter how he was interrogated, he remained very stubborn and refused to reveal the Su family.

Jiang Fenghua took a cloak and put it on Zhang Yumo, "Sister-in-law."

In just a few days, Zhang Yumo became so thin that she was just skin and bones. If Feng Jingyuan hadn't found ways to prepare food for her, she would have collapsed long ago.

She looked at the ruins in front of her with red and swollen eyes. "I have been without parents since I was a child. They gave me all their love. I never thought they would leave me so soon. Why is it like this? Why is Second Aunt so cruel? She even committed suicide in the end. I can't figure it out. Fenghua, you are so smart. Can you help me think about it, please?"

"If I hadn't gotten married, would they not have left, and no one would have harmed them?" Zhang Yumo almost collapsed. She had thought a lot these days. They had been racking their brains over her marriage.

She couldn't understand why her second aunt was like this. It was only in the past few days that she learned from the Zhang family what happened when she got married.

Jiang Fenghua knew that Su Xuan and Ji Chen were behind this. In her previous life, she only knew that something had happened to Zhang Yumo, but the two elders of the Zhang family did not leave in this way.

She even felt guilty because she had implicated Old Madam Zhang and Duke Zhang.

The person the Su family wanted to deal with was her, Jiang Fenghua. "Sister-in-law, this matter is indeed not as simple as it seems. I'm sorry, I didn't expect them to reach out to the Zhang family."

Zhang Yumo stared at her, "So you know who it is?"

Jiang Fenghua glanced around and nodded, "According to my analysis, if my guess is correct, I know."

Zhang Yumo saw that she was hesitant to speak, and knew that she was not in a position to speak, "Let's go outside and talk!"

Jiang Fenghua saw that she was willing to leave Zhang's house, and his eyes became brighter, "Okay."

Now both Madam Zhang and Duke Zhang have been laid to rest. The Emperor also sent people from the Ministry of Rites to personally hold the funeral. It was grand and brought honor to the Zhang family. However, this was also the last time that the Zhang family would be so glorious.

Master Zhang Er and Master Zhang San knew they were leaving and quickly chased after them, "Moer."

Now that the Zhang family no longer has the support of the Duke, and without the title of the Duke, the Zhang family may really be on the decline, so they have to rely on the relationship between Zhang Yumo and Princess Heng.

"Second uncle, third uncle." Zhang Yumo bowed slightly.

"Don't be polite, come back often!" The two of them were trying to get closer, "This will always be Moer's home."

She knew that they were only showing respect to her grandparents in appearance, and did not take her, an orphan, seriously. When she lived in the Zhang Mansion before, she was timid and cowardly. Even when she was wronged and bullied, she never dared to resist, but just gave in.

She is obviously her grandfather's biological granddaughter, but she is so cowardly.

Now that she has no worries, she is naturally not afraid of them anymore. From now on, she will embark on a new path in life and avenge her grandparents.

She stared at them without offending them, "Moer knows, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, please go back soon. Moer will come back to visit you when she has time."
