After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Is it possible that some prince wants to use the seriously ill crown prince to get rid of him?

"No matter what it is, I feel that the emperor has begun to doubt me." Prince Ning said with a serious expression.

Qingyao was a little panicked: "What should we do? Father, our plan has not yet come to an end."

"Why are you panicking? I'm just suspicious."

Prince Ning somewhat disdained his son's restlessness.

"How can an emperor not be suspicious? When the late emperor was alive, I was a prince, and his own children were often suspected and tested."

Prince Ning was telling the truth. There was no relationship between father and son, or brothers, in the royal family.

As a member of the royal family, it is normal to be suspected. It depends on how you deal with it.

"This time, when you go to the southwest, in addition to protecting yourself, you must also find a way to collect evidence of the Southwest Marquis's rebellion."

Prince Ning ordered.

Qingyao hesitated.

"Father, didn't Meng Yi frame the Wen family for treason? Could it be that the Marquis of Xi'nan truly harbors rebellious intentions?"

"He may not have the guts to rebel, but it's true that the Marquis of Southwest has been disrespectful to the imperial court over the years, and he must have harbored rebellious intentions."

Prince Ning saw things very clearly.

The Marquis of Southwest is out of control, and the court will sooner or later get rid of this cancer.

"When the time comes, if you add fuel to the fire and plot a rebellion, won't that make it happen?"

He glared at his son.

Qingyao swallowed and understood the implicit meaning.

This meant that no matter whether he had found evidence or not, he had to find a way to produce some evidence to force the imperial court and the Marquis of Southwest to go to war.

"Father, why should we get involved in something like this? Why not win over the Marquis of Southwest?"

Qingyao didn't quite understand what benefits it would bring to him and his son if the imperial court took back the power in the southwest.

"Fool, the barbaric lands of the southwest are short of supplies, the land is barren, the people are difficult and unyielding. What good is there in cooperating with them?"

"But if the Marquis of Southwest is plotting a rebellion, you will definitely be rewarded with a merit if you find evidence. Besides, with the imperial court sending troops against the Marquis of Southwest, who will have the time to pay attention to Prince Ning's Mansion?"

It can also be regarded as diverting the trouble to another place, and at the same time allowing the court to consume some manpower and material resources, which is beneficial to him.

Prince Ning was a man of deep thoughts. Although he didn't know why the emperor suddenly decided to take action against the Marquis of Southwest, it did not prevent him from having his own thoughts.

"I understand, father." Qingyao nodded slightly.

"Before leaving, comfort Su Qingya. She is still useful now." King Ning advised.

They have already created more powerful firearms.

Although Su Qingya is stupid, she is quite useful. She also has a way to make money, such as selling facial masks.

"Yeah." Qingyao was a little impatient, but still agreed.

After coaxing Su Qingya for several years, he had long been fed up with her, not to mention that she had recently become pregnant and her temper had become worse and worse.

After coming out of the study, he went back to the backyard and listened to the piano music with Su Qingya.

"Husband, the baby in my belly seems to be moving. Do you want to listen?"

Su Qingya's face was filled with the tenderness of a mother.

"I just said that prenatal education is very important."

"it is good."

Qingyao bent down slightly and pressed against her abdomen, feeling the movement inside, but his heart was calm.

"It seems our son is very lively."

Su Qingya was a little unhappy.

"The baby hasn't been born yet. What if it's a girl? Will my husband not like her anymore?"

Qingyao gently stroked her face.

"What nonsense are you talking about? You can hang an oil can on your little mouth."

"It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl. As long as it's yours, I like it."

Only then did Su Qingya curl the corners of her lips.

After coaxing her for a while, Qingyao left, making the excuse that he had some official business to attend to and would not be coming back to sleep tonight.

Su Qingya sighed, knowing that her husband should make more preparations after taking on the task.

But she couldn't help being sensitive.

"Princess, it's time to rest."

"Well, I heard there's a skilled doctor who can tell the gender of a baby by taking their pulse. Go get one for me tomorrow."

Su Qingya touched her belly.

As a modern person, she certainly would not favor boys over girls.

But in ancient times, in order to legitimately inherit the family business, one had to give birth to a son.

She needs a son to help her secure her position, and the same will apply if she has a daughter in the future.

"Princess, how can any doctor outside be as good as the imperial physician? You might as well wait until the imperial physician comes to your house next time and ask him." The maid advised.

Now the Crown Prince's wife's pregnancy is the most important matter in the palace.

In order to be able to hold her grandson safely, the princess has recently stopped the prince's wife from observing the rules and has also sent her many supplements.

Occasionally, when the Crown Prince's wife made a mistake, the Princess would advise her instead of scolding her harshly like before.

She didn't dare to ask any doctor from outside to take the Crown Princess's pulse.

Su Qingya thought so too.

However, when she mentioned the imperial physician, she thought of Fang Nanzhi, who now had free access to the Imperial Medical Bureau.

I feel a little upset.

"Has Fang Nanzhi been to the palace recently?"

"To answer the Crown Princess, no, she only got the right to read medical books, and she can't enter the palace every day." The maid was respectful and good at speaking.

Su Qingya also felt comfortable listening to it.

How could the daughter of a ninth-rank minor official enter and leave the palace at will?

Even though she was the Crown Prince Consort of Prince Ning, she didn't have such face.

"Hmph, wait a little longer. After I give birth to the child, I should teach that little girl a lesson."

The maid didn't dare to respond.

To be honest, besides Su Qingya's jealousy, there was another person in the capital who could not accept Fang Tong and Fang Yin becoming officials.

That is Fang Jin, who works as an aide in the princess's mansion.

He couldn't understand why he had studied so hard for so many years, but ended up breaking his leg, becoming an anonymous person, and having his future ruined.

Two younger brothers, one is mentally retarded and the other is a street thug. Can both of them become officials?

Why? Master Mingming said that he was the most talented child of the Fang family, and his parents loved him the most.

The brothers Fang Tong and Fang Yin should always be at his feet.

Fang Jin closed his eyes, suppressed the anger in his heart, and calmed down before walking into the secret room.

"Princess, the matter has been investigated. If this matter is exposed, it should be able to delay Prince Ning and prevent him from accepting the mission to the southwest."

Fang Jin knelt on one knee, not daring to look up.

"Well, let's handle it cleanly. The emperor has become suspicious of the Marquis of Xi'nan. We need to dispel his suspicions. We should find someone else to handle this task."

The third princess sat at the head of the table, her long nails glowing red.

As early as half a year ago, she had secretly formed an alliance with the Marquis of Southwest, and now of course she did not want anything to happen to her ally.

"Yes."

Fang Jin's eyes flashed.

The third princess smiled coldly: "Come to think of it, your two brothers are in the capital now, don't you want to reunite with them?"

"Princess, I am your man and I have no family left." Fang Jin said firmly.

"Puchi." The third princess smiled and said casually.

"This princess is not someone who doesn't understand human nature. You should also prepare yourself and go out and show yourself."

"After all, you still have two good daughters. Don't you miss them after all these years?"

Fang Jin perked up and understood something.

"I will obey the princess' orders."

The third princess was very satisfied with his attitude.
