Wearing a book, hooking him up

Chapter 243 Finding the Secret Letter

Two months passed by unknowingly. Su Jingyao calculated the days carefully and estimated that she would soon have a child.

After she stopped taking birth control pills, she drank the nourishing medicine prescribed by Doctor Li on time and in the correct amount every day.

I asked Nanny Lin to take her pulse, and sure enough, she was pregnant.

However, Su Jingyao never told Jun Zechen the news because she received a letter from her father.

Her hand holding the letter was trembling slightly and her face turned pale.

It turned out that before she married the prince, Jun Zechen had already been targeting the Su family in the court.

So the Su family was never mentioned in the original book, is it because after Jun Zechen ascended the throne, the Su family was already wiped out by Jun Zechen?

The reason why her father wrote to her this time was because Jun Zechen doted on her, and even her father outside the palace had heard about it.

After all, it was no secret in the palace that Jun Zechen had always neglected other concubines for her.

Daddy wants to know whether the prince’s favor towards her is out of exploitation or love, which determines Daddy’s attitude towards the prince.

Before, Daddy had always been a staunch royalist and the leader of the conservatives. This was why Daddy Su was able to reach this high position. He had the deep trust of His Majesty.

Since Su Jingyao married the prince, Su's father has actually become the prince's man.

Although other people in the court did not know, Father Su had long known the prince's ambitions. After the prince ascended the throne, he would need his support to launch wars and attack other countries.

None of the conservative ministers were willing to do so. If they obeyed the prince, Su Dad would have to abandon those officials who supported him. If they did not obey the prince, Su Dad did not know how long he could resist the prince.

For an old minister like Su Dad who sits in a high position, all decisions are not so simple. He must consider the thoughts of those who follow him.

After all, the prince is still young. How could the old ministers in the court be willing to give up the good peace, spend a lot of gold and silver to train soldiers, stockpile food and grass, and then take the initiative to start a war?

So Father Su never knew how to respond to the prince.

But as the prince doted on his daughter more and more, and even talked to him a lot in private and tried his best to lobby him, even Su Jingxuan was persuading him, he had to write a letter to ask his daughter.

The prince was a thoughtful person, and he was afraid that the prince was taking advantage of Yaoyao.

Su Jingyao's brows were tightly twisted into a knot, and her eyes were fixed on her father's letter.

The letter made a slight sound in her slightly trembling hands.

After reading the letter, her thoughts gradually began to become clear, and some things that she had never figured out before gradually became connected.

Therefore, in the original book, Daddy did not completely submit to Jun Zechen. One reason may be that Daddy was a conservative minister who adhered to his own position and principles and was unwilling to easily participate in war, which was a waste of money and manpower.

Another reason may be that in the original book, I died in the East Palace. Given my father's love for me, how could I cooperate with Jun Zechen?

Then there is a great possibility that the Su family will be eliminated by Jun Zechen.

But Jun Zechen really doted on her in this life. Perhaps for her sake, he would not attack the Su family again.

As for what Daddy said about being used, judging from Su Jingyao's own feelings, Jun Zechen's favor towards her did not seem fake.

But Jun Zechen had been reborn. In his previous life, he was a high and mighty emperor with a mind as deep as the sea.

Su Jingyao could only force herself to make rational judgments. As a person involved in the situation, she must not fall into emotional attachments, otherwise she would be blinded by one thing.

She couldn't just rely on her feelings. At least now she didn't have enough reasons to convince herself that Jun Zechen would definitely let the Su family go because of her.

She wasn't sure whether Jun Zechen really cared about her.

Su Jingyao gently stroked her belly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

She murmured to herself, "My child, you came at the right time. Then accompany your mother to test your bad father."

Jun Zechen had correspondence with his father, and even issued some secret letters, all of which were intended to deal with the Su family in secret, but they were shelved.

The reason why Father Su knew this was because Jun Zechen had been trying to win over the Su family recently and even confessed the matter of the secret letter.

But, it is both a solicitation and a threat.

The existence of the secret letter is to tell Daddy clearly that if Daddy cannot be used by him, the Su family will be destroyed sooner or later.

Su Jingyao took a deep breath. She had to find these secret letters.

-

Yude Hall.

"Why is Your Highness so busy these days?"

Su Jingyao said coquettishly, sitting softly on Jun Zechen's lap, holding a plate of plump and juicy grapes in her hand.

From time to time, she would pick one up and put it in her mouth, chewing it gently, with some juice still on the corners of her mouth.

From time to time, she would reach out and feed Jun Zechen one, with a playful look in her eyes.

Jun Zechen held her in his arms, his expression focused, but his right hand was not affected at all as he was reviewing the memorials.

"I want to ask you, why are you pestering me all the time today? What do you want to do?"

Of course she wanted to find the secret letter. During this period, Su Jingyao came to the study in Yude Hall every few days. She almost searched the study room thoroughly, but she didn't see any secret letter at all.

Jun Zechen usually placed his memorials and documents directly on the desk, while some files or other letters were placed on the bookshelf next to it.

Jun Zechen's bookshelf is very large. Su Jingyao spent a lot of effort looking everywhere, but couldn't find it.

Is there some hidden mechanism?

Su Jingyao pondered secretly in her heart.

If she fails to find him in one day, Su Jingyao can only come to Jun Zechen. The glory and safety of the Su family cannot rely solely on the favor of a man. She must test it herself before she can tell her father what to do.

Now my father has most of the people in the court, and Jun Zechen cannot deal with them at least in the short term. Once they surrender to Jun Zechen, the life and death of the Su family will be completely in Jun Zechen's hands.

Su Jingyao had to be careful in sailing the boat.

"Your Highness, I just miss you. If I hadn't come to Yude Hall recently, Your Highness would only be running between Qianqing Palace and Yude Hall."

Su Jingyao pouted her lips with a hint of dissatisfaction on her face, and resentment was almost overflowing from her big eyes.

"My father is seriously ill. I will spend an hour every day in the Qianqing Palace to take care of him. When I come back, I have to deal with many memorials and review documents from various places."

"So don't make trouble."

Although his tone was serious, it still contained a hint of fondness.

"Your Highness, you have worked hard. Feed your Highness a sweet grape."

Su Jingyao smiled sweetly, bit a grape with her teeth and fed it to Jun Zechen's mouth, looking charming and attractive.

Upon seeing this, Jun Zechen immediately took the initiative and suddenly took the grape into his mouth. Their lips touched and the grape instantly squirted out juice in their mouths.

The sweet juice seemed to flow into each other's hearts.

The kiss is over.

Jun Zechen rubbed his eyebrows slowly, looking a little helpless, and sighed secretly in his heart.

I had been an emperor for decades in my previous life, but I had never experienced what it meant to be misled by beauty. But now I have truly experienced it.

After the kiss, he regretted it. His eyelids drooped and he looked at her with a complicated look, "Want to read a book?"

His voice was low, with a hint of suppressed irritation. Her presence made him distracted and had a great impact on him.

"No, I want to sleep in your Highness' arms."

After saying that, she leaned obediently against Jun Zechen's neck, looking delicate and adorable.

She had searched everywhere on the bookshelf, but couldn't find it. Su Jingyao suspected that the secret letter was in his bedroom.

Moreover, she has been in the Eastern Palace for almost half a year, but she has never been to his bedroom.

Jun Zechen's face was full of helplessness. He then stood up, carried her in his arms and walked towards the bedroom with quick movements.

"Where is your Highness taking me?"

Su Jingyao asked him with blinking eyes.

Jun Zechen didn't say anything. Not long after, he walked into the bedroom and put the person on the bed.

He bent down and supported his hands on either side of her body, lowered his head and approached her, his dark eyes deep.

He whispered, "Go to sleep. When you wake up, accompany me for dinner. If you keep pestering me, I won't be able to finish reviewing the memorials today."

Su Jingyao blinked her big, twinkling eyes at him a few times, as bright as stars, and nodded obediently with a sly smile on her lips.

Just what she wanted.

Seeing that the other person had finally obeyed him, Jun Zechen stood up, turned around, left the bedroom, and returned to the study.

When Su Jingyao was the only one in the bedroom, she casually put the grapes in her hand aside, then walked to the basin and carefully washed her hands with clean water.

The slender fingers gently stirred in the water, causing water droplets to splash.

Then, she began to look carefully at Jun Zechen's bedroom.

This was her first time in Jun Zechen's bedroom. It had already taken her a lot of time and effort to get Jun Zechen to stay overnight in her Shuening Palace. She didn't know when she would be able to move into his bedroom.

But she just thought about it in her heart, today the most important thing is to deal with business.

Su Jingyao's eyes were sharp as she began to search through the room, checking all the places where things could be hidden, but she found nothing.

Based on my previous experience watching TV dramas, is there some mechanism on the bed?

Su Jingyao bit her lip, took off her shoes without hesitation, and climbed onto the bed using her hands and feet.

She was lying on the bed with her hair disheveled, searching everywhere. She looked totally out of shape and completely devoid of her usual elegance.

But after searching for half a day, I still found nothing.

That's impossible. How could these secret letters not be in the Yude Hall?

Su Jingyao was full of doubts, and she lay down on Jun Zechen's pillow as if to give up. Fortunately, the pillow was soft enough to let her head sink into it a little.

Suddenly, Su Jingyao seemed to realize something and her eyes narrowed.

Why is the vase on the bedside table not moving at all?

She frowned, slowly stood up, and looked closely at the vase. She first turned it gently with her hand, but there was no response.

I wanted to move the vase directly, but found that I couldn't move it at all. This was obviously wrong.

Su Jingyao stared at the delicate patterns on the vase with a focused gaze. She pressed lightly on a small opening, and instantly a compartment popped out of the vase.

This vase actually has a mechanism!

There was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

There was indeed a letter inside. Su Jingyao couldn't wait to find the letter related to her father and read it carefully.

It turned out that Jun Zechen had already secretly contacted other conservative ministers, and it was impossible for every faction in the court to have completely identical ideas.

Jun Zechen wants to defeat them one by one.

On the surface, he pretends to be nice to Daddy, but he is secretly colluding with Daddy's subordinates. This old man Jun Zechen is really cunning.

Su Jingyao gritted her teeth in anger.

So Jun Zechen's original plan was to secretly undermine the Su family's power?

This secret letter even promised another official the position of Shangshu Ling. Was he planning to bring down my father?

If the signature date was not before she entered the East Palace, Su Jingyao might have been so angry that she had a miscarriage.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and put the secret letter back into the vase.

Lie down, close your eyes and start to rest.

There will be a big show soon, so the baby in your belly must have a good rest.
