After the marriage, I married the most treacherous minister of the dynasty

Su Qingwan only asked Miao Hua to keep an eye on these things privately and did not tell Yan Mingjue.

Yan Mingjue has been very busy recently. Although he didn't tell anyone when he came back, Su Qingwan guessed that he was dealing with the Yan family based on the several times Yan Yanchen came over and the rising prices in Beijing.

Although the four great families usually compete with each other, they are intermarried and are closely related.

They would not allow the court to shake their position.

So, although this seems to be a struggle between Yan Mingjue and the Yan family, it is actually a struggle between the imperial court and the aristocratic families.

Recently, more and more people have been traveling to and from Beijing.

Hearing that Yan Yanchen came again, Su Qingwan frowned. This time she did not stop him, but asked someone to invite Yan Yanchen in.

Both of them are smart people, and Su Qingwan doesn't beat around the bush.

"You know we have no say in this matter. It's been like this every time you come here."

Although Yan Mingjue was involved with the Yan family, he would not have acted this way if it were not for Emperor Xuanwu's intention.

On the way back, Su Qingwan had already figured this out.

She believed that Yan Yanchen was smart enough to figure this out.

Hearing her words, Yan Yanchen shook his head:

"I came here to ask Madam Yan to help me find a way out."

As she spoke, she looked at Su Qingwan:

"I don't want to be a victim of my family."

Before coming to the capital this time, her grandmother came to see her.

Let her find a way to restrain Yan Mingjue. If that doesn't work, then look for another way. After all, there are many princes and nobles in the capital.

In the past, although their family was high and mighty and disdained to have anything to do with the court, things are different now.

Today, the imperial court is becoming more and more powerful, and they have to ensure the stability of the family.

What my grandmother said sounded nice. She was of a noble status, so it was not a bad idea for her to be a princess.

But she is not a fool.

If the family really cared about her, why would they push her out?

She is just a tool to stabilize the family.

She has done a lot for the family over the years and is highly valued by the family. She does these things just to make her life better.

What she wants is not a life of wealth and luxury, but a stable life.

Now, the only person she could think of was Su Qingwan.

"Mrs. Yan, everyone says you have a lot of ideas. Please help me find a way."

Su Qingwan didn't expect that Yan Yanchen's real thoughts were actually like this.

She glanced at him, thought for a while and said:

"Miss Yan is a smart person, why do you have to belittle yourself?"

With Yan Yanchen's ability, it is not a problem for him to leave quietly.

Yan Yanchen smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

"Mrs. Yan, do you know how many people are around me?"

"Even my maidservant is not mine."

"We are all just pawns of the family. The people around us are all family children. Moreover, we are replaced every two years."

"My family knows everything I do."

She looks glamorous, but actually she has nothing.

This was something Su Qingwan had not expected.

She thought quietly for a while:

“What kind of life do you want?”

"free!"

I don’t know if it’s the same for other people, but what she desires most is freedom.

"Then why do you think I will help you?"

Su Qingwan asked.

Yan Yanchen looked at Su Qingwan:

"Because I saved Yan Mingjue once before."

Su Qingwan sneered when she heard this, and after a while, she said:

"Miss Yan, you have been living a life of luxury since childhood, but do you know that life outside is not as simple as you think?"

"I know!"

"I would rather go to a small village and be a village girl."

"I don't want to be a puppet anymore, controlled by others all my life!"
