Chapter 246: Because of Her, It's Different

When Song Wan arrived at the Regent's Palace, Jun Jiuchen was reviewing memorials in the study.

A few days after leaving Beijing, the memorials had piled up like a mountain.

Originally, Jun Jiuchen had instructed that no one should disturb him, but when Suifeng heard that Song Wan had arrived, he led her directly out of the study without any hesitation.

And just as Suifeng expected, after he went in and reported to his master, his master didn't even raise his head and just said "OK".

Song Wan entered Jun Jiuchen's study smoothly.

Seeing that Jun Jiuchen was still writing without looking up, Song Wan did not rush to speak. She just stood quietly by and ground ink for him. Her eyes fell on the memorials on the table and the tip of his pen as he wrote, as if she was thinking about something.

After a while, Jun Jiuchen's voice rang out.

"Are you here because of Su Ling'er's death?"

Song Wan was not surprised that Jun Jiuchen could guess her purpose.

Even she already knew the news, let alone him?

Just put down the ink in your hand.

"Your Highness is so calm, but has he already come up with a plan?"

Upon hearing this, Jun Jiuchen simply closed the memorial in his hand, put down his pen, and said lightly.

"Countermeasures?"

"No."

Seeing him like this, Song Wan was speechless.

"Your Highness, aren't you worried that the Queen Mother will bear a grudge against you because of Miss Su's death?"

"She is your Majesty's biological mother after all."

Jun Jiuchen just leaned back on the wide seat and looked up at her.

"Why worry about something that has already happened?"

Song Wan's eyebrows jumped when he heard this.

"Has the Queen Mother fallen out with the Prince?"

Jun Jiuchen just shook his head slowly.

"Quite the contrary."

"After court today, Shangguan Yu and I went to ask for an audience with the Queen Mother. We wanted to thoroughly investigate Su Ling'er's death."

"Who would have thought that when I went there, not only did she not blame me at all, but her smile was even wider than usual..."

"It's as if... Su Ling'er's story didn't even exist and had nothing to do with me. He even ordered that Su Ling'er be buried as soon as possible... saying that she had already left a suicide note, and for her sake, there was no need to investigate further."

Hearing this, Song Wan immediately understood.

Su Jinyue loved Su Ling'er so much and was willing to deal with the Mobei people alone for her. How could she have no reaction to her death and no resentment towards Jun Jiuchen?

unless……

She is pretending.

But the real gap is always silent.

"In that case, Your Highness, how do you plan to resolve this conflict? Otherwise, Prince Huai will definitely not miss this opportunity to take advantage of the situation and win over the Queen Mother."

"If she really sided with Prince Huai..."

Jun Jiuchen listened to Song Wan's hesitation and just looked at her and spoke seriously.

"Su Ling'er's death was a bit strange, but no matter why she died, it actually has nothing to do with me."

"It was Su Jinyue's own willful behavior that harmed her."

"If she really can't understand the truth behind this and instead hates me because of it, then this kind of thing, once it happens once, will happen a second time, and a third time..."

"Plus, Prince Huai and his followers are trying to instigate her. If she's easily persuaded, how many times do you think I can resolve this situation?"

He had already resolved the crisis of Su Ling'er's marriage to Mobei.

As long as Su Jinyue pretends that this incident never happened, everything will be fine.

But... she insisted on forcing the marriage on him in front of so many people again without even discussing it with him.

He had given her countless chances, but Su Jinyue kept pushing her too far and plotting against his marriage, so he naturally had to let her see his bottom line.

Otherwise, things like this will just keep happening endlessly.

As for Su Ling'er... she may be innocent, but he is not a saint.

There is no responsibility to take responsibility for one's marriage to someone who has nothing to do with him.

He has a clear conscience.

Jun Jiuchen thought about it and continued in a cold tone.

"Moreover, once I send them mother and son to that position, many things will be beyond my control. I have been mentally prepared for this since the first day I supported Yun Ye to ascend the throne."

"Now, it's just the beginning..."

"When His Majesty grows up, even if I do nothing, I, and the military power in my hands, will most likely become a thorn in the emperor's heart."

"Human hearts are like this, human nature is like this. If you can't force it, why bother struggling?"

Song Wan knew very well that what Jun Jiuchen said was right.

Now, the young emperor has been on the throne for only half a year, and Su Jinyue is already a little confused, let alone in the future...

Just say it like this.

It's inevitable that people sigh.

Song Wan thought about it, glanced at the pile of memorials on Jun Jiuchen's desk, and couldn't help but ask the question that had been hidden in her heart just now.

"Since the prince had already seen everything clearly, why did he support them and their son to ascend to the throne?"

During the six months since the young emperor ascended the throne, Jun Jiuchen helped to deal with memorials. Even though Prince Huai and his party were eyeing him covetously, there were almost no problems in government affairs, which gave Prince Huai the opportunity to find some opportunity to attack him. It can be seen that he has his own ambitions.

And since such a person had entered Shangjing in the past and possessed such an identity...

Why not take the opportunity to take that seat yourself?

In this way, we won't have to be controlled by others like we are now...

He didn't look like the kind of person who liked to put his fate in the hands of others.

Jun Jiuchen did not speak immediately after hearing this, but just kept his gaze on Song Wan's face.

why?

Shangguan Yu had also asked him the same question.

How did he answer him then?

Why should a person who has no expectations for the future be afraid of the future?

At that time, he watched her fall off the cliff with his own eyes, and the Queen Wei, whom she hated the most, also fell into his hands. He only wanted to settle all the soldiers in Mobei, and then ask the truth from Queen Wei to avenge his mother. That was enough.

As for that position, he never thought about it.

Because he knew very well that he had come out of killing and hatred, and those experiences had already taken root in his heart. He also knew that others said that he was a little paranoid, so... he was not sure that he could be a wise and benevolent ruler.

He felt that he was... more suitable to be a knife.

But the Fourth Prince is different. He is still young, like a blank sheet of paper. As long as Shangguan Yu teaches him carefully, he will have a greater chance of becoming a good emperor.

All he had to do was to make this knife well and eliminate the dirt in the court before any suspicion or fear arose.

And when the little emperor grows up and knows how to hold power in his own hands, he will surely be a qualified emperor.

At that time, he was alone, and whether he wanted the military power in his hands or his life, he would give it to him.

But now...

But it's different.

Because, she...
