I'm not really the protagonist? [Transmigration Book]

Su's study.

"Father, what should I do?" Su Mingwen, the second master of the Su family, knelt on the ground, his face was pale, and sobbing, he begged the old master of the Su family, Su Wen, "Father, save your son, he really knows his mistake."

"You bastard...you are really a bastard," Su Wen's chest heaved violently, and the cane knocked on the ground, angrily said: "You are going to push the Su family into a pit of fire, you are really brave, big, Hu Dare to covet all the money."

Su Wen cursed and was puzzled, raised his crutches and wanted to throw it at Su Mingwen, thinking that if he was killed, he would not have to hurt the Su family.

Su Mingwen backed away in fright, screaming "Help."

The study door was pushed open from the outside, Mrs. Su sternly shouted: "Su Wen, stop me."

Mrs. Su asked someone to pull Su Mingwen up, she was also angry, and scolded Mr. Su.

Old Master Su was very angry, and scolded angrily: "A loving mother is a loser, look at this bastard who is spoiled by you."

"Su Wen, what face do you have to say?" Mrs. Su looked at Mr. Su coldly, "Don't you know what's going on in Su's mansion? But how much money did you send to Dali Temple? Where did the current expenses of Su's mansion come from?" Yes, you really don’t know what to do? Since you didn’t investigate and stop it at the beginning, now you can find a way for me.”

Su Wen couldn't hold back when he was told, and seeing Mrs. Su's stern voice, she snorted coldly and stopped talking.

In the whole study room, apart from the two thick women beside Mrs. Su, only Su Mingwen, Mr. Su and Mrs. Su remained. No one spoke in the room, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

I thought that the snow disaster in Yanbei had passed, but I don’t think so, this period of time is actually to let those officials who are corrupt or form a party for self-interest relax their vigilance. It was rumored that Zheng Yuan, the former magistrate of Yanbei Prefecture, had died in Yanbei.

The study door was pushed open by an outsider, Su Mingran hurried in, without saying a word, slapped Su Mingwen fiercely in front of Su Wen and Madam Su, and shouted angrily: "Kneel down."

Su Mingwen has always been favored by Mrs. Su. Although she didn't have much respect for his elder brother, she was frightened at the moment and knelt down obediently.

Seeing Su Mingran's expression, Su Wenwen and Mrs. Su didn't dare to speak. Su Mingwen knelt and moved a few steps and asked, "Brother...Big Brother...Is something wrong?"

"You said you were only greedy for some silver taels? Huh? You don't even look at what kind of silver it is?" Su Mingran shook off Su Mingwen's hand that wanted to hug him, "You dare to greedy Yanbei disaster relief money, you really How brave, my brother."

"Say, what else are you hiding from us?" Su Mingran stared at Su Mingwen viciously.

Su Mingwen looked at his brother's furious face, shook his head and said, "No...no more."

"Don't repent if you die," Su Mingran gritted her teeth and was about to leave the house, "You just wait to die."

Mrs. Su grabbed Su Mingran's arm, "Son, save your brother, you were able to enter Dali Temple with your brother's money."

Su Mingran was dragged back, knowing the truth that one prospers one prospers one loses all ones loses and went back to the house.

Su Mingran stared at Su Mingwen fiercely, and asked again: "What else are you hiding from us?"

Su Mingwen didn't dare to hide any more, and told about the fifth prince's secret contact with him. He had already made a choice for the Su family and stood by the fifth prince's side.

Now Su Wen couldn't bear it anymore, raised his crutches and hit him down, no matter what Mrs. Su could do to stop her.

The fifth prince is the son of Concubine Yi, one of the four concubines in the harem. Concubine Yi's mother's family has long been desolate and has no rights, but she was able to get the emperor's favor and secure the second position among the four concubines, which shows that the method is not simple.

Because the current empress, Rong, was the concubine when the emperor was the prince in the early years. When the emperor went to Chu Yunguo as a proton, he still managed the palace in an orderly manner under pressure, and when the emperor came back from Chu Yunguo, he blocked a poisoned arrow for the emperor. , lost the qualifications to be a mother, the emperor loved her and made her a queen.

But the position of the prince could not always be vacant, so the son of the virtuous concubine who had established the head of the four concubines became the prince.

These five princes originally belonged to the prince's faction, and were loyal to the prince, but in the past two years, he has drifted further and further away from the prince, perhaps because of his ambition, or perhaps because he was dissatisfied with the prince's way of doing things.

But no matter how ambitious and capable the fifth prince is, if he is not a legitimate son, and he does not have the support of his mother's family behind him, there will still be no disturbances among the princes, so Su Wen and Su Mingran gritted their teeth angrily, wishing to kill him A person kneeling on the ground.

Su Mingwen desperately explained.

It turns out that there is still a reason for him to help the fifth prince. Recently, the fifth prince has frequently taken up positions in front of the emperor, and he has done very well. He has even won praise and awards from the emperor on several occasions. As a result, the ministers in the court also Satisfied with the fifth prince, the ministers are more willing to communicate more with the fifth prince who is doing practical things, compared to the gentle and modest but mediocre prince.

In this way, nearly half of the ministers in the court and the fifth prince had a good relationship with the fifth prince, and the plan of the fifth prince began to unfold.

Su Mingwen said that what happened in Yanbei this time was the fifth prince's method to deal with the prince. The purpose was to make the courtiers dissatisfied with the prince, and the ultimate goal was to make the emperor decree to abolish the prince.

Although the queen's poison has been cured and she gave birth to the thirteen princes, the queen's mother's family is not very powerful, and the thirteen princes are too young, so they don't pay attention to them for the time being.

Therefore, as long as the crown prince is abolished, the fifth prince will have a chance to fight for that seat.

As for why Su Mingwen got involved, it was the prince's counterattack. He was in the household department and was the easiest to deal with.

No matter how stupid Su Wen and Su Mingran are, they still know that the fifth prince can't reveal all his trump cards to them. If the fifth prince has such an ambition to fight for the throne, there must be some power behind him, but the key is that Concubine Yi's mother's family really doesn't have much power. On the contrary, Concubine Xian's mother's family is the residence of Marquis Zhenyuan, and Marquis Zhenyuan is even more loyal to the emperor's faction, and has won the emperor's trust.

Regardless of whether this is the decision of the Su family or not, the prince faction has already identified their Su family as belonging to the fifth prince, and it is useless to say anything now, unless Su Mingwen is forced to confess the fifth prince, but the key is Su. Mingwen is just a small household official from the fifth rank, without any actual evidence in his hand, whether the emperor believes it or not, their Su family cannot escape.

At this time, the only way to do it is to be superficial, pretending that the Su family was deceived by the fifth prince and didn't know about the secret fight between the prince and not on the side of the fifth prince. The rest of the princes must also be brought in.

The three of them paced back and forth in the study room. Mrs. Su lived in the backyard for a long time, so she didn't quite understand the ravines in the court hall, so she said hopefully, "I'll write to my brother to see if my brother can find a way to save Wen'er."

Mrs. Su's surname is Wang, and she is the daughter of the Wang family in the capital. Wang Chongyun, the deputy chief of the Jingji Army of the imperial court, is her own brother, and he is very influential among the officials in the capital.

Su Wen is old, and he doesn't know as much about the court affairs as Su Mingran who lives in Dali Temple. Su Mingran denied Mrs. Su's words, saying that the Wang family can't enter this muddy water because the Gyeonggi Army is directly under the Ministry of War. To put it in a deeper way, it is the army directly under the emperor. If he enters the competition among the princes this time, the emperor will definitely be dissatisfied with the leader of the Gyeonggi Army, and he can be dismissed for any reason.

"Uncle's participation won't help much." After Su Mingran explained, everyone understood.

From dark to dawn, the door of the study was suddenly knocked from outside, and the voice of the old housekeeper came in: "Master, Third Master and the others have already moved into the new residence."

Third Master?Su Mingwei!

Both Su Mingran and Su Mingwen's eyes lit up, they looked at each other and nodded.

Su Mingwei is the best candidate to save them.

No matter what, Su Mingwei is from the Su family. If he speaks for the Su family, it won't arouse others' suspicion. The focus is on the people behind Su Mingwei.

The Seventh Prince behind him.

Ever since Su Mingwei entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate under the words of the Seventh Prince, the Su family has made up their minds to bring Su Mingwei back into the Su family.

Before, they would doubt whether the Seventh Prince was talking casually or if he really had friendship with Su Mingwei, but now they know that the Seventh Prince has friendship not with Su Mingwei but with Su Mingwei's precious son Su Jiabao.

The Seventh Prince and Su Jiabao went shopping together and had dinner together at the Tang's restaurant, this news is probably known to everyone in the capital now.

Seventh Prince, Lord Xianshuo, with his help, nothing would be a problem.

Mrs. Su knew the priorities of the matter, so she hurriedly ordered the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law to go to her house with the ledger. The three of them combined together and came up with a big gift, which was delivered to Su Wei's residence the next day.

Su Mingran came to the door in person, with a good attitude, and his words were full of apologies for what happened back then. Su Wei let him in based on the principle of not hitting anyone with a smiling face.

Su Jiabao quietly lay on the corner, gnawing a cucumber in his mouth, looking at the things that were brought in one by one, his big eyes bent into crescents, and asked Wu Yan who gave it as a gift in a low voice.

After learning that it was the Su family, Su Jiabao had a satisfied look on his face. The people from the Su family were like roundworms in his stomach. They said they were short of land and money, so they brought them here immediately.

Su Jiabao quietly touched the window of his father's study room, and listened to the corner of the wall in front of the servants.

In the study, Su Mingran first sincerely apologized for what happened when she was a child, and said that she would rebury Su Wei's mother, Chen Xue from the Zhao family, as an aunt.

Su Mingran talked with Su Wei for a long time, and it was all about family affection or family support in the future. What he wanted was for Su Wei to return to the Su family, and the three brothers would carry forward the Su family together. He also said that if Su Wei goes back, all the clan elders will come to witness and so on.

Su Mingran's words were full of affection and remorse, and he even drew a big cake for Su Wei that they would glorify their ancestors and be remembered by the descendants of the Su family in the future.But Su Wei didn't say a few words the whole time, and neither accepted nor rejected Su Mingran's apology on behalf of the Su family.

Su Wei is not such a cruel person, as long as his bottom line is not touched, he will generally not care about you, but if his bottom line is touched, he will not give face to anyone except the king of heaven. He used to be straightforward, Later, under Xu Yining's little persuasion, people less powerful than him continued to be tough, and people more powerful than him could not speak up if they didn't speak.

Su Wei's reticence at the moment is not because he is concerned about the influence of the Su family, but because of what Su Mingran just said about his mother, Mrs. Zhao. He wants Mrs. Zhao to have a reputation and no longer bear the infamy of seducing the master, but he doesn't want to. When he returned to the Su family, he didn't want Xu Yining and Su Jiabao to be bound by the rules of the Su family, and had to go to Mrs. Su's room every day to say hello or something. He didn't want his wife and children to be wronged.

Seeing that Su Wei didn't speak, Su Mingran felt a little happy. As long as he didn't directly reject him, it meant that there was still room for negotiation. The failure to agree was just that the conditions they gave were not enough.

Another day passed.

Su Jiabao continued to cat in the corner with a pear in his mouth, looking at the two boxes of things that were brought in, and the figures of Su Mingran and Su Mingwen walking towards the study, Su Jiabao frowned, he It feels like something is wrong.

It seems that the Su family doesn't just want them to return to their family. They are so eager that they seem to be asking for them, but he didn't hear anything in the corner yesterday. Could it be that they are going to say something today? Out of purpose?

Su Jiabao took the pear and continued to nest in the corner of the old place to listen, but after listening for a long time, except for Su Mingwen kneeling down to apologize, the rest was not much different from yesterday.

Naturally, Su Jiabao hoped not to enter the deep house in the Su Mansion. It would be nice for the three of them to be happy and free, and he had great confidence in his father. No matter what, his father would never agree to re-enter the Su Mansion, even if his father Unexpectedly agreed, his mother would definitely not agree, his mother's brain is much more clever than his father's.

The sound in the room became a little quieter, Su Jiabao turned sideways, and pressed his ears tightly against the wall.

With a "squeak", the window above the head opened.

Su Jiabao raised his head and caught his father Su Wei's eyes. Su Jiabao saw that his father's eyes had changed from fright to doubt to dissatisfaction and gradually turned to anger. A gesture of acknowledging his mistake, and then he ran away without a trace.

Su Jiabao who ran out of the house asked Wu Yan to pull a carriage. Su Jiabao climbed in and said to Wu Yan, "Go to Xianshuo Palace."

If we talk about the movement of the capital, who has a clear understanding like his elder brother?
