Going to Beijing to save his father, all the powerful officials in the city are vying to be his fath

Su Qin blinked her eyes and forced back the tears: "No, I like it very much. I am crying for joy."

Wang Er heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good. You don't know, when I left, Lord Su and Madam Su repeatedly told me to check on you. If they knew you were crying, they would definitely be heartbroken."

Su Qin smiled and asked, "Are they okay? How are they feeling?"

Wang Er: "Madam, Miss, and the young master are all in good health. It's just that Lord Su was tortured in prison and injured his body. Later, when he returned to Chanzhou, he was busy with disaster relief. He was really exhausted and didn't get enough rest, so he's not in good health."

Su Qin asked worriedly, "Have you asked a doctor to take a look?"

Wang Er nodded. "Yes, the imperial physician who accompanied the team lives in the government office and often treats Lord Su. However, Lord Su's health needs to be healed. He doesn't have the time, so it's not good to keep delaying it."

Su Qin pursed her lips. She knew that unless Su Jijing resigned completely, he would not have time to recuperate. If he kept dragging on like this, he would probably not live for many years.

It seems that she has to find a place to settle down as soon as possible, but she doesn't know whether the Su family is willing to go with her.

The two chatted for a while, and Su Qin asked Wang Er when he planned to go back.

Wang Er said he would not go back. Su Jijing asked him to come so that he could protect Su Qin, and he wanted to stay by her side.

Of course Su Qin would be willing to have a reliable person by her side, but she couldn't be so selfish. If Wang Er stayed with her, he would have no future. The person around an official elder sister is at most a guard or follower.

But if Wang Er goes back, whether he follows Su Jijing or goes to train troops, his future will be very bright.

After the emperor took power, there were not many people around him who could be used. Young talents like Wang Er were exactly what the emperor needed. As long as he caught the emperor's eye, he might be granted a title of nobility and become a prime minister in the future.

She explained the truth to Wang Er, and then said: "Nothing is wrong here, it's very safe. Now I am doing business with the Wuning Marquis Mansion. They are in the open, and I am in the dark. No one will notice me.

And now Liangchen has become the deputy commander of the imperial guards. He will protect me. There is no point for you to stay here. You should go back and help my father.

It just so happens that after the New Year, the Marquis of Wuning will go to Chanzhou to train his troops. You should go with him then."

Wang Er was a little hesitant. Although he wanted to achieve great things, he was more grateful to Su Qin and Su Jijing for their kindness in recognizing him. He wanted to repay them, and staying to protect Su Qin was the only thing he could do now.

Su Qin saw his concerns and said, "I know you want to protect me, but you are just an ordinary citizen now. If the powerful want to target me or even kill me, you can't protect me no matter how powerful your martial arts skills are.

But it will be different if you go back and follow my father and the others. You will have the opportunity to climb the ladder. When you become an official and have a higher status, even if the powerful want to harm me, you will be able to protect me and you can be my backer in the future."

Wang Er felt that Su Qin was right. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go back. I've learned to read with Brother Xu and martial arts with Wu Qian. I'll learn more skills in the future. Don't worry, I'll work hard to become an official, a high-ranking official, and be your backer."

Su Qin smiled: "Okay, I'll wait."

Zhao Liangchen came back in the evening and took Wang Er to live with him. Early the next morning, he brought Wang Er, who was dressed as a royal guard, into the palace.

A palace banquet was to be held today, and many people were coming and going in the palace. Jin Tong and Zhao Liangchen were both on duty in the palace, so no one noticed the appearance of an unfamiliar imperial guard.

When the emperor saw Wang Er, the resentment he had felt for many days dissipated a little. Wang Er was smart, honest, tall, and a very reliable subordinate.

There are many young people like this in Chanzhou. The emperor feels extremely happy when he thinks that there are many talents available in the dark.

Marquis Wuning also came to the palace banquet with his son and wife. The emperor met with them privately. The emperor and Marquis Wuning agreed on the terms for the son to train troops for him. From then on, the entire Marquis Wuning's mansion completely stood on the emperor's side.

Zhao Jian also came with his family. The emperor also found an opportunity to meet Zhao Liangsi, which made Zhao Liangsi very excited.

The emperor gave him a task, which was to secretly win over the scholars of the Imperial College to serve the emperor.

Zhao Liangsi still wanted to bring Zhao Liangchen down, and the emperor promised him that as long as they could find evidence against Zhao Liangchen, he would punish him as he wished.

Zhao Liangsi acted as if he had obtained some kind of imperial sword, and when he saw Zhao Liangchen, he raised his eyebrows at him provocatively.

And he kept staring at Zhao Liangchen all night.

Unfortunately, Zhao Liangchen stood guard outside the temple all night without moving.

Prince Liang came with his wife, Princess Liang, who was wearing the plum blossom headdress that she had won at the auction. This attracted the attention of all the ladies in the audience, making her very proud.

As a result, when the queen arrived, the set of glittering crystal phoenix crowns she wore made everyone present look at her in amazement, and every lady had an envious look on her face.

Although this phoenix crown is in the shape of a phoenix, it is not particularly elegant, luxurious or complicated.

The shape of the phoenix is ​​freehand, with simple lines outlining the shape of the phoenix, and then each carved line can just reflect a different brilliance.

There were many candles lit throughout the hall, and the candlelight shone on the crystal, making the white crystal appear in a variety of colors.

Moreover, this set not only includes the phoenix crown, but also the earrings, hairpins, necklaces, bracelets, etc. are all made of crystal.

The queen sat on the stage, so dazzling that everyone couldn't help but look at her.

This made those noble ladies on the selection list who originally wanted to enter the palace and compete for the queen's favor instantly feel ashamed.

Soon someone asked where the queen got this set of headgear. They found out that it was given by Qiao Haomin. The female relatives asked the men in their families to find Qiao Haomin and ask him where he bought it.

Qiao Haomin did not mention the Wuning Marquis Mansion, but only said that he bought it from a foreign merchant he met while traveling outside.

This was the result of a discussion between the Wuning Marquisate and him. Now both the Wuning Marquisate and the Lu Duke's Mansion were helping the emperor, and they would definitely not let other officials pay too much attention to the Wuning Marquisate.

Upon hearing the news, the ladies were extremely disappointed and could only comfort themselves that she was the queen and they could only envy her, but even jealousy was useless.

Princess Liang sat at the front, watching everyone's attention focused on the Empress. Her face twisted with jealousy, the handkerchief in her hand, as if sensing her wrath, was torn to shreds. Prince Liang keenly sensed her emotions and, as gentle as a spring breeze, reached out to hold her hand. He soothed her softly, "It's just a set of jewelry. If you want it, I'll find it for you. Why are you so upset? In the future, you will possess even more magnificent treasures. All the beauty of this world will be yours."

The jealousy and dissatisfaction in Princess Liang's heart dissipated a lot when she looked at the gentle and affectionate face of Prince Liang. Yes, what was she jealous of now? A queen who could not bear children was a pitiful person no matter how noble she was. Not only did she have to share a man with countless women, but she also had to be trapped in the palace all her life and die alone.

Is there any other woman in this world who has her glory, happiness, such good love, and endless money? She is the most enviable woman in this world.

Thinking that many women would enter the harem in a while, her face looked much better, and she looked at the queen with some sympathy. Poor woman, she could only enjoy the glory for this moment. It was just a set of headgear, so let her go for now.

The queen seemed to feel nothing even though she was being stared at by so many people. She looked towards the location of the Duke of Lu's mansion. The Duke of Lu nodded slightly at her, and she felt relieved.

How her future life would be like depended entirely on this incident. Recently, the emperor had been resting at her place every day. She knew that the emperor was upset because something had been tampered with in his bedroom, but the palace servants who didn't know about it privately said that she wanted to get pregnant as soon as possible before other concubines entered the palace, so she was dominating the emperor every day. Therefore, the servants in the palace often laughed at her behind her back.

These words reached the Queen's ears, but she didn't care. If the Emperor's illness was cured and she could get pregnant successfully, then she wouldn't have to care about these ridicules. If she couldn't get pregnant successfully, then she would probably hear a hundred times more gossip in the future.
