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

At the same time, on the other side, Su Xuan was holding a glass of wine with gloomy eyes.

Li Cheng felt creepy when he saw Su Xuan like this. Anyone who dared to offend the Su family would be tortured to death by Su Xuan. Su Xuan has been an ambitious and vindictive person since he was a child.

Su Xuan said, "Brother Li is also doing well in Shengjing, unlike me who is only covered with dust in the frontier."

Li Cheng said, "I envy Brother Su. At least he is far away from home and is not bound by any rules. He can do whatever he wants. Unlike me, I have been staying in the military camp, neither advancing nor retreating."

In fact, Li Cheng's starting point was higher than Su Xuan's. If he had worked harder, he would have been at least a general. But he was still only a deputy captain. The position that Minister Li gave his son was too conservative. He knew his son's character and was afraid that if he climbed too high, he would not be able to control himself.

Su Xuan nodded. He would never come to see you for no reason. "Brother Li, you don't want to go higher and further. With your talent, you should go to train soldiers and fight. What's the point of holding the title of deputy captain, dealing with military equipment every day? Unlike others, they were awarded the title of marquis just by fighting on the battlefield once. It's just a matter of time before they are awarded the title of marquis and appointed as prime minister in the future."

Li Cheng naturally knew who he was talking about and just smiled, "It's a pity that I don't have such a beautiful sister! I don't expect to be granted a title of nobility or become a prime minister. It's good enough for me now. I'm not as good as the best, but better than the worst." His father had warned him not to provoke the Jiang family again.

As expected, Xie Shang was made the crown prince, and Jiang Fenghua became the crown princess. Their status will be even higher in the future. Who would dare to provoke them? It really shows that his father is far-sighted.

"In fact, Uncle Li also made great contributions in mobilizing troops behind the scenes. The emperor can only see the people in front of him, but not the hard work and efforts of those behind the scenes. Why should Jiang Jinyan take all the credit? My Su family also served the prince, but we couldn't resist the influence of his sister in front of him. It's really frustrating to think about it." Su Xuan knew how to sow discord.

"After this great victory over the Hu tribe, Brother Su was also awarded the title of Red Tiger General by His Majesty, a third-rank official, which is pretty good. Uncle Su received first-class merit, and the Su family is also honored." Li Cheng is not stupid, and he will not be led by Su Xuan.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Su Xuan said, "Soon the Jiang family's wealth will be discounted, Brother Li, believe it or not."

"I don't believe it." Li Cheng said. He had seen Jiang Fenghua's methods. Thinking of Ji Chen's death, his neck felt a little cold.

Ji Chen set fire to Zhang's house and then put the blame on Madam Zhang Er. In order to marry her daughter into the Su family and become a general's wife, Madam Zhang Er took the initiative to admit that she was the one who set the fire. She knew that the Su family was behind Ji Chen, so naturally these ideas might have been given to Ji Chen by the Su family. What a perfect plan, but in the end Ji Chen died at the hands of Jiang Fenghua.

At that time, Ji Chen came to him and wanted to see Jiang Fenghua's end, but he didn't expect to see his own end with his head and body separated. Naturally, he would not tell these words to Su Xuan, it was enough for him to know it himself.

"You are so afraid of the Jiang family that you let Jiang Jinyan take your fiancée away like this." Su Xuan said sarcastically, "Brother Li is really generous. If it were me, I would not be able to swallow this breath."

"So what if I can't swallow it? Didn't Brother Su say it? He is the Marquis of Wu'an now. We can't compare to him. We'd better be honest to save our lives." In fact, he was also very unhappy, because the fact that Zhang Yumo broke off the engagement with him was still a joke in the aristocratic circle of Shengjing City.

Now that Jiang Jinyan is rising in status, it proves that Zhang Yumo would have been better off marrying him, and his self-esteem as a man has suffered quite a bit.

People don't talk about Zhang Yumo breaking off the engagement, but rather about how fortunate she was that she didn't marry Li Cheng. Comparing the two, Li Cheng is not as good as Jiang Jinyan.

Li Cheng concealed his emotions. On the night of the Lantern Festival, he saw Jiang Jinyan and Zhang Yumo walking hand in hand on the street. They were very much in love and it seemed as if all the fireworks in Shengjing City were blooming for them.

He was so angry that his teeth were itching. Zhang Yumo was not particularly pretty. She was just okay, not as pretty as Jiang Fenghua.

Su Xuan is very good at observing people's words and expressions. The official position does not attract Li Cheng, but he becomes obsessed when she mentions women. Does she like Zhang Yumo so much?

Li Cheng was in a daze, his eyes fixed on the students downstairs.

Su Xuan said, "It's very lively down there. When they heard that someone was cheating in the imperial examination, the students started to make a fuss. For those without a background, the only way to change their fate is to take the imperial examination. They studied hard for ten years just for this day."

Li Cheng said, "If someone without any background passes the exam, won't he just be a salted fish on someone else's chopping board?" He didn't know yet that the person sitting opposite him was the instigator of this farce.

One is the son of Shangshu Li, and the other is the son of General Su. Both of them were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. They didn't have to work hard to take exams. Their families would arrange a good position for them. If they made contributions and achievements, they would be promoted. Just like Jiang Jinyan now, he didn't take exams, but with the support of the prince, he still thrived.

In other words, they enter the workplace to gild their skills and are likely to take over their father's business in the future.

Su Xuan laughed, "Brother Li, I like what you said. If I help Brother Li turn Jiang Jinyan into a salted fish on the chopping board, Brother Li must remember my kindness."

"What do you mean?" Li Cheng asked puzzledly.

Su Xuan smiled without saying anything. The students downstairs were waiting for a result from the imperial city, and he was waiting too.

I don’t know whether the Jiang brothers and sisters like the drama he designed for Jiang Huai.

He applauded his perfect plan. Jiang Fenghua would have to pay the price for her foolish behavior of provoking him sooner or later. His only regret was that he couldn't see Jiang Fenghua's shocked and horrified face now.

The game he had set up was not ready to close until he caught the big fish. The highlight was for the Jiang family to arouse public anger, but he would never be able to wait.

At this time, Su Xuan's spies also passed the news from the palace to Su Xuan's ears. It has now been confirmed that Jiang Huai has not met Wang Qing, and there is no buying and selling test. Wang Qing may be interrogated.

After hearing this, Su Xuan suddenly stood up from his seat.

"Brother Su, what's wrong?" Li Cheng asked.

Su Xuan's expression changed all of a sudden, his eyes were cold, as if the cold winter weather was covered with a layer of bone-corrosive frost, which made people feel cold to the core. However, the conclusive evidence could still clear him of the charges.

At this time, the gate of the imperial city opened, and Tutor Pan and officials from the Ministry of Rites came out. I don't know what news he announced to the students, which caused the students to start whispering to each other.

There were many people in the crowd who were fanning the flames, but when they heard that the emperor was going to summon them in person to test their knowledge, they dared not move.

Tutor Pan also announced that in order to be fair, in addition to the students who have made the list, they must go in to meet the emperor, and the students who have not passed the exam can also participate voluntarily. It is completely voluntary and the opportunity is given. If you feel that you did not perform well in the examination, you will have a chance to meet the emperor. This is an opportunity that cannot be missed. If you are noticed by the emperor, it is not impossible for him to directly reuse you.

For a moment, there was a commotion at the gate of the imperial city. They were like beauties entering the palace for selection. If they performed well at the last minute, everything would be different.

Who would make trouble like this now? They all raised their hands in agreement. Those who had real talent and knowledge were not afraid of the emperor's test at all. They just regarded it as participating in a palace examination.

If anyone still insists on picking on Wang Qing for cheating at this time, it would be considered a deliberate provocation and he would be arrested and severely interrogated.

Su Xuan looked at the students who came into the palace one after another, his brows furrowed, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

At this time, someone else came to report, "General, a group of people from the Wang family went and took the real Wang Qing away, and Mr. Wang was also taken away."

After Su Xuan heard this, his eyes darkened, "I understand."

He clenched his fist and smashed the wine glass on the table. "I don't believe Jiang Fenghua is so lucky."

Li Cheng's mind worked quickly. Su Xuan was so angry. Could it be that the "bustle" outside the imperial city had something to do with him?

Li Cheng didn't want to get involved in this mess. "I still have military affairs to deal with, so I won't accompany Brother Su."

After saying that, he lifted up his robe and left.

Su Xuan got even angrier when he saw him leave. Who the hell is Li Cheng? He is so timid and cowardly. No wonder he can only be a small deputy captain.

Su Xuan didn't expect that Wang Qing was also exposed. At the beginning, he did not contact the Wang family directly, but a ** person named Thousand Faces Langjun.

The person who impersonated Wang Qing was the Thousand Faces Man, who survived in the underworld by relying on his unique skills. He was very expensive and had also signed a life and death agreement. If the mission failed, he would not reveal the mastermind behind the scenes even if he died. That was why Su Xuan was so fearless.
