On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

Later, because she was not at the table, it was revealed that the Third Prince was also not at the table, and later the Third Prince was caught having an affair with Concubine Xian.

Prince Yun is unable to take care of himself, let alone see his mother.

Su Kang had long known that Prince Yun had coveted his wife in his previous life, but he had not expected that in this life, when he was by his wife's side, Prince Yun would dare to be so blatant.

Listening to Su Sui'an's analysis, he nodded repeatedly with a serious expression, and followed her thoughts very cooperatively to recall the previous anomalies.

Suddenly, his eyebrows, which had been relaxed, suddenly knitted tightly together. "If the opera house was normal a few days ago, the abnormality probably started after your mother came back from having tea with friends at the Pinxiang Tower..."

"Tea tasting?" Now it was Su Sui'an's turn to be a little confused.

Okay, what kind of tea would you like?

"Who is mother going to have tea with?"

Su Kang tried hard to recall.

Every time Ji Lanshuang went out, she would take the initiative to "report" to him the night before, and her last outing was not long ago.

So Su Kang only needed to think about it a little bit and he would remember it.

"Liu, the wife of the Minister of Personnel."

"Mother actually drank tea with the wife of the Minister of Personnel?"

Su Sui'an was very surprised.

Even though Su Sui'an didn't often mingle among the noble ladies in Luojing in his previous life, he knew how feared this Liu was.

A jealous and hot-tempered woman, and her husband is afraid of her, sometimes even if others want to sow discord, they don't know where to start.

When Xue Ren, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was still only a Yuanwailang, someone mentioned that he had been married for twenty years and now only had a wife and no concubines by his side, and so they encouraged Xue Ren to take a concubine.

Before Xue Ren had the chance to express his opinion, Liu had already left him a letter of divorce, threatening to divorce him if he took a concubine.

Everyone was watching with a sense of embarrassment how Liu was divorced by Xue Ren. Unexpectedly, Xue Ren knelt on the washboard with his hands pinching his earlobes, confessing that he had made bad friends and would never go out again...

Afterwards, others asked Xue Ren with a gloating attitude whether Liu had any handle on him. Xue Ren always looked "magnanimous" and said that he only had one wife, so he should be accommodating and coaxing her so that she would not be deceived by other men...

The shocking remarks shocked the person who originally wanted to laugh at the joke.

Later, Liu got the news from somewhere, but she learned that Xue Ren had been encouraged to take a concubine, and that it was a man named Li Qun who took the lead.

Without saying anything, Liu came to Li Qun's house with a knife in hand, scolding Li San for being dishonest, and then sent an ambitious prostitute to Li Qun, tearing Li Qun's family apart...

From then on, whenever someone advised Xue Ren to divorce his wife or take a concubine, Liu would do the same. Over time, some of Xue Ren's friends would avoid Liu when they saw her.

Some of his bad friends even put Xue Ren on the list of people they would never have any contact with.

Xue Ren was free from the burden of his bad friends, and in just five years, he climbed from a fifth-rank official to the position of assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel...

Even though he now holds a third-rank official position, Xue Ren still treats Liu as before, and Liu has become a lot more docile now that she has fewer troubles.

However, that is just an appearance.

What Liu did back then was truly "shocking". Even now, if someone talks about Liu's "glorious" deeds, they can talk about them differently for three days and three nights.

Looking at all the noble families in Luojing, there are still many people who are afraid of Liu and dare not have too much contact with her.

How could such an outgoing person become friends with his introverted mother?

Su Sui'an also found it incredible.

Given Liu's stubborn character, it would be impossible for her to have any dealings with a man like Prince Yun who had no respect for women.

Then the problem lies in where Ji Lanshuang went.

After analyzing it like this, Su Sui'an looked at Su Kang inquiringly, "Dad, what do you think?"

Su Kang pursed his lips, "Pinxianglou seems to be the property of the Second Prince."

The sentence was enough to stop there. Su Sui'an quickly reacted, "Prince Yun is on good terms with the Third Prince on the surface, but in fact, the frequency of his secret dealings with the Second Prince is no less than that of the Third Prince..."

In other words, if Prince Yun really had seen her mother in Pinxiang Tower, then, given his relationship with the Second Prince, it would be easy for him to find out about someone in Pinxiang Tower...

"However, Prince Yun doesn't seem to know that Pinxiang Tower is the property of the Second Prince." Su Kang told Su Sui'an what he knew.

He also heard from Fu Jingrong about the significance of Pinxiang Tower to the Second Prince.

Fu Jingrong talked to him a lot that day. In addition to telling him his life experience, he also sorted out the identities of the second prince, the third prince, Prince Yun, Su Qishun and even the dead bandit leader.

During that time, several people had their own ulterior motives, and concealed information and industries from each other. The only thing Su Kang remembered most clearly was Pinxianglou.

As a famous teahouse in Luojing, it would be a pity if Pinxianglou was only used for open business. Therefore, Pinxianglou also has some shameful activities in secret, and those activities are the source of important intelligence...

Anyone with a little common sense knows that they cannot tell everything to their "partners".

The second prince Murong Wen would naturally not be killed, so he would not easily tell Prince Yun about this matter.

On the contrary, as long as Prince Yun was discussing with others in Pinxiang Tower, the content of his discussion would be easily known by Murong Wen...

Hearing this, a hint of interest flashed across Su Sui'an's eyes.

"If, as Daddy said, Murong Wen has his own trump card, then why don't we take advantage of the opportunity to borrow the power of the Second Prince?"

The reason why an affair is an affair, isn't it because some people want to keep it to themselves and don't want others to know so they can't let anyone know?

She insisted on showing all these dirty things in front of people.

With a rough plan in mind, Su Sui'an turned to look at Su Kang, "Dad, tell me honestly first, if I attack the Marquis of Changping Mansion, will you consider our old friendship?"

The hesitation in Su Sui'an's eyes was like a steel needle that pierced Su Kang's heart.

But Su Kang understood that if he wanted to untie some knots in his heart, he had to do something...

So, he put his hand on Su Sui'an's shoulder, clasped his five fingers together, and gently exerted force, as if he wanted to pass on some of his strength to Su Sui'an through his palm. "An'er, do whatever you want. Su Qishun and Liang deceived me. If the timing was not right, I would have torn my face with them long ago."

"No, as long as we want to move to Changping Marquis Mansion, any time is a good time." Su Sui'an flashed a bloodthirsty smile, "We have been away from Changping Marquis Mansion for so long, it's time for us to prepare to go back."

...

That night, another secret letter appeared on Fu Jingrong's desk.

After Fu Jingrong read the contents of the secret letter, he casually put the letter on the candlestick and lit it, then casually placed the burning letter into the copper stove beside the desk, allowing the flames to devour the letter.

The dim firelight made his fair face flicker, and even stained his usually cold eyes with a hint of blood.

"Notify them, you can move now."

In the dark corner of the study, a figure that almost blended into the night moved slightly, but in just a moment, it disappeared without a trace.

Yi Zhi carefully brought Fu Jingrong a cup of tea.

"Sir, your wedding date is about to be set. If you take any further action, will it cause trouble?"

On the day of the marriage, because the assassin came suddenly, Emperor Mingqing issued the decree but had not yet had time to set a wedding date for Fu Jingrong and Su Suian.

Later, Fu Huai had a disagreement with Emperor Ming Qing and stayed in the mansion to "recuperate".

Not long after he had recovered from his illness, Emperor Mingqing discovered that the remnants of the evil had not yet been eliminated and that the princes had secretly formed cliques with kings of different surnames for personal gain. The people he had were never as useful as Fu Huai and his son.

Seeing that Fu Huai was not moving in, Emperor Ming Qing turned his attention to Mu Xiaoxiao.

Mu Xiaoxiao's desire for her son to get married is obvious in her words, so Emperor Ming Qing goes with the flow and offers to "set a wedding date for Fu Jingrong and Su Suian" in exchange for Mu Xiaoxiao helping Fu Huai "recover from his illness."
