, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!

Zeng Liang thought for a while and said: "The surname Shu is not common. The one with a name in Beijing should be the one related to the Guangping County Prince's Palace?"

As soon as Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, she knew that she was right to come to Zeng Liang. Among all the people in the capital who could hang out in Qingjinfang, he had an account here. new

"Exactly, have you seen him recently?" Su Xinyi asked hurriedly.

Zeng Liang smiled, looked at Su Xinyi and said, "I heard that the Shu family is going to have a happy event recently. The eldest son in the family is going to marry the eldest daughter of the Hou family. How can he have time to come here to relax."

"What about before?" Su Xinyi asked again. She knew that Zeng Liang had the best information.

"How long ago was it?"

"The last three months."

"Then I have to think about it." Zeng Liang half-closed his eyes and didn't move for a long time. He thought he was asleep.

Su Xinyi did not rush him. He sat on the roadside with his chin propped up and looked at the passers-by. Most of the people who came to Qingjinfang were people who wanted to try their luck in gambling houses. There were merchants with rich clothes and elegant clothes. The shabby gamblers who want to make a fortune, and the passers-by like her who are just watching the fun.

As she watched, Su Xinyi suddenly saw a very familiar figure. She thought she had seen it wrong, rubbed her eyes hard, and then still looked at the familiar figure and entered the gambling shop opposite.

Shang Junyan?

Why is he here?

Su Xinyi didn't really want to meet him, so she subconsciously turned sideways, not wanting him to see her.

It's just that I'm surprised that a man like Shang Junyan, who calls himself a gentleman, would actually enter a place like a gambling house. Could he be investigating another case?

"Hey, did you meet someone you know?"

Hearing Zeng Liang's slightly mocking voice, Su Xinyi was not angry and said casually: "That's right, do you remember it? I will leave if you can't remember it anymore."

Zeng Liang said "tsk". It seemed that the person she saw made her temper bad. It could be seen that if she was not a friend, she must be an enemy. "I met him once more than a month ago. At that time, the people surrounding him were all He is a well-known rogue in Qingjinfang, but he has not been here since that time."

Su Xinyi frowned slightly when he heard this, "He came here to hang out with a group of gangsters instead of gambling?"

"That's right. After all, you don't have to go to the gambling table here."

"Then can you ask the people at the time?"

"What are you asking about?"

"Just ask about the incident at Daling Temple, you know, right? After all, Mr. Shu got a wife for nothing because of that incident," Su Xinyi said.

Zeng Liang rolled his eyes, "Do you suspect that he had a premeditated plan?"

"So be it."

"You want proof?"

"Can you find it?"

"It's hard to say."

"Then you give it a try. It's best to get evidence that Shu Xuebo made a deal with those gangsters. If you can't get it, it doesn't matter. A confession will do. Can this be done?"

"Of course others can't, but it's just your word, I'll try."

"Thank you." Su Xinyi readily took out a banknote and handed it to him.

Zeng Liang didn't refuse. He put the banknotes away and slowly closed his eyes, "Then Miss Six, go back and wait for the news."

Su Xinyi nodded, stood up and left without saying another word.

As soon as she left, Zeng Liang slowly opened his eyes, bared his teeth, and muttered, "Trouble, hey."

Who makes him owe her a favor.

Su Xinyi walked along the street of Qingjinfang, and as she walked she arrived at Huangjinfang next door. When she stopped, she had already arrived at Xinghua Tower. Thinking of her visit here with her cousin Gao, a smile appeared on her face. .

The apricot blossoms that once filled the sky filled the streets, but now only the green leaves of the trees are left fluttering in the wind.

"Su Xinyi?"

Su Xinyi stiffened slightly and looked back at the figure chasing after him, Shang Junyan?

Didn't he enter a gambling house?

"Sure enough, it's you." Shang Junyan thought he was dazzled, but he didn't expect it was really her. "When did you come back?"

Su Xinyi was silent for a moment, "We are not familiar with each other, why do you care so much?"

Shang Junyan choked, "I have no other intention, I just saw you and wanted to say hello."

In fact, Shang Junyan himself didn't know why, but he chased after her when he saw her.

"That's not necessary. If Mrs. Shang finds out, I'm afraid she won't know how to scold me."

After listening to Su Xinyi's words, Shang Junyan's face paled slightly. He looked at Su Xinyi and sighed, "Sorry."

Seeing him like this, Su Xinyi felt that it was a bit much, and said calmly: "You don't need to apologize, I'm just afraid of trouble. You know that your mother and sister have great malice towards me, forget it, don't say this Yes, what do you want me to do?"

Shang Junyan actually had nothing to do. He just wanted to stop her when he saw her. Suddenly she asked him this question. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "Do you know that Xu Yurong is getting married?"

It seemed that this topic was the only thing that could bring them closer together.

Su Xinyi nodded, "I heard that, this is really a good thing that pleases people, isn't it?"

Shang Junyan has known clearly what Xu Yurong did in his life. Su Xinyi didn't want to hide her thoughts at all, she was just happy.

"you……"

"Why, do you feel uncomfortable hearing what I say? Do you want to say that women should be more tolerant?" Su Xinyi looked at Shang Jun and asked.

Shang Junyan tensed his scalp, looked at Su Xinyi and shook his head, "That's not what I meant..."

"Oh, that's good. I really don't want to hear nonsense about repaying kindness with evil."

Shang Junyan was silent. He believed it. He also knew that not only did she not like to hear it, but she could also do more terrifying things than retaliating directly.

For example, setting a fire or something.

"I know." Shang Junyan said a little dryly, "I heard that this victory at Zhangping Mansion is due to you. Once your Majesty awards the reward, you will be able to truly stand on your feet. Congratulations."

Su Xinyi looked at Shang Junyan and raised his eyebrows slightly, "If I remember correctly, you went to work as an official in the Ministry of Justice. How come you still know these things?"

The current Shang Junyan is not the one with the deep connections who followed King Rong in his previous life. Now he is just a young talent with good talent, far from reaching the height of his previous life.

This news was not difficult for him before, but it is a bit difficult for him now.

Shang Junyan pursed his lips, looked up at Su Xinyi and said seriously: "Whether you believe it or not, I just want to remind you that if His Majesty summons you, you should try to be more steady and mention Su Si more. Lord, this is good for you."

Su Xinyi frowned even more tightly, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Shang Junyan took a deep breath and looked at Su Xinyi, "Su Xinyi, I just want to make up for my guilt towards you. Although I am too late, I am sincere. Your Majesty's thoughts are like the sea and it is extremely difficult to guess. Please be extremely careful with the prelude. You know, I know something about this."

Su Xinyi understood what Shang Junyan meant. He was referring to his experience in the court in his previous life. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become silent.

She couldn't bear it anymore, so she pulled Shang Junyan by his sleeve and dragged him to the corner of the street. She looked at him and asked in a deep voice: "Did you do a lot of things in my father's name in the past?"

Shang Junyan looked a little defeated and nodded, "Yes."

Su Xinyi pursed her lips, knowing it clearly, but hearing him admit it in person, she still felt a little angry, and said sarcastically, "So, your family is using my father's favor, but you still want to trample me under your feet... Although I told myself several times that the past things are in the past, but you really don’t want to say this in front of me again, I can’t guarantee that my fist will not point at your face.”

Shang Junyan wiped his face hard and said, "Su Xinyi, I know I can't help you, so I'm here to remind you that if you really want to fight, then go ahead."

Su Xinyi:......

How to fight this?

Shang Junyan always has the ability to drive her crazy!

"Sixth Miss, Master Shang, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Su Xinyi and Shang Junyan were startled when they heard the voice. They turned their heads almost at the same time and saw His Royal Highness in regular clothes standing on the roadside, staring at them with a smile.

Shang Junyan felt very strange. Even if he appeared here, he would never have the face to let the prince of a country stop and say hello, so he turned to look at Su Xinyi again.

Su Xinyi:......

Look what she does!

Why is she feeling a little guilty for no reason?

No, what is she guilty of?

It makes no sense.

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi immediately forced out a smile and said, "What a coincidence. Why is Brother Shiyuan here too?"

Brother Shiyuan...

Shang Junyan stared at Su Xinyi as if struck by lightning. What did he hear?

It was probably because Shang Junyan's eyes were so existential that Su Xinyi felt frightened and couldn't help but glare at him. What was he looking at!

Her Highness's identity cannot be revealed outside, so it is right for her to call her that.

Yan Junchu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the two of them. His previous feeling was correct. There must be some interaction between the two that he didn't know about. The indescribable aura made him extremely uncomfortable.

"I casually went out for a walk, and unexpectedly I met A Yuan and Mr. Shang."

Ah Yuan?

Shang Junyan looked at Su Xinyi and then at His Royal Highness, A Yuan?

Su Xinyi didn't know how to explain the almost substantive look in Shang Shang Junyan's eyes.

No, why should she explain to Shang Junyan?

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi was no longer so embarrassed. He looked at His Highness the Crown Prince and said as calmly as possible: "I just happened to meet Mr. Shang, so I chatted for a few words."

"Yeah?"

Su Xinyi listened to the prince's tone of disbelief. She sighed. She really didn't lie. The two really met by chance.

Shang Junyan also recovered from the shock at this time. She knew that Su Xinyi was close to His Royal Highness, but she did not expect that the intersection between the two seemed to be closer than he thought.

He looked at the two of them suspiciously, and for some reason his brain twitched. He looked at His Highness the Crown Prince and said, "No, it was me who chased after Miss Six when I saw her."

Um?

What did Shang Junyan say?

This bitch tricked him again!

The two of them really don't get along, so they can't get together!

After Shang Junyan finished speaking, he also fell silent. He felt that he was also crazy. He was silent for a moment and then added, "I wanted to ask Miss Six about something, so I caught up with him."

"Are you done talking now?" Yan Junchu looked at Shang Junyan and asked.

Shang Junyan nodded, and then heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say again: "I happen to have something to tell A Yuan. Can Master Shang make it easier for me?"

No matter how stupid Shang Junyan was, he knew that His Highness the Crown Prince was asking him to leave, so he turned his head to look at Su Xinyi.

Su Xinyi:......

There is something really wrong with this person, look what she does!

Seeing Su Xinyi's cold gaze, Shang Junyan squeezed out a smile, then took a step back and walked away with his hands folded.

Su Xinyi also fell silent. Every time he met Shang Junyan, he would be in a bad mood. It felt so bad.

Yan Junchu looked down at Su Xinyi, looking at her visible depression, pursed her lips, and said slowly: "I interrupted your conversation with Mr. Shang. When I saw you here, I happened to have something to think about with the caravan. I wanted to talk to you, so I came over."

Standing in a secluded place, Su Xinyi didn't have much scruples anymore. Then he shook his head and said, "His Highness is just joking. How can there be any interruption? The caravan's matter has been settled?"

"This is not the place to talk. Let's talk somewhere else."

It happened that Yiyuanju was next to it. The two of them went to the single room on the second floor, ordered a pot of tea and a few refreshments, and sat across from each other.

Su Xinyi reached out to hold the pot and pour tea. It was hard for the prince to do such a thing.

Yan Junchu pushed the tea in front of Su Xinyi, "Are you hungry? Let's eat something first."

Su Xinyi had no appetite for anything to eat, but he still pinched a piece of yam cake into his mouth, ate it together, drank tea to clear his mouth, and then said: "Your Highness mentioned the caravan thing before, how is it now?"

Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi, who was in front of him, Brother Yuan, and in the back, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he could tell the difference clearly.

"I have already reported this matter to my father, but my father has not issued his decree yet," Yan Junchu said.

Su Xinyi knew that things would not be that easy. He frowned slightly and thought for a while before saying, "This matter is indeed risky. If the Tatar tribes discover it, they will easily find an excuse to attack Nan Qi again."

"Although there are some risks, it is not impossible. You can still give it a try."

"What His Highness said is true." Su Xinyi cheered up, "There is no other way but to wait for His Majesty's decree. There is another matter, which is the matter of my two cousins. Is it okay for Your Highness to allow them to come to Beijing? Just for the caravan?"

"Have you guessed it?" Yan Junchu's tone became a little brisk.

Su Xinyi also smiled after hearing this, "Besides this matter, I can't think of any other place where His Highness would use them. Then my eldest brother, does Your Highness want him to continue to stay in the Royal Guards?"

"Yes." Yan Junchu nodded, "The Royal Forest Army is very stable at the moment. It's not a bad thing to stay here for a while."

Su Xinyi thought about the prince's words. The Royal Forest Army was stable, but there were other places that were not stable. But she also knew that this was not what she should ask, so she nodded, "I will tell the eldest brother. This time the eldest brother has been promoted to a thousand households." , I would like to thank His Highness for being awarded the title of General of Military Virtue."

Without His Royal Highness, the eldest brother's achievements would be erased to some extent. Even if there is the Su family, they will not interfere with these agreed-upon military practices as long as they are not excessive.

"Rewards should be based on merit." Yan Junchu looked at Su Xinyi and said slowly, "What are your plans next?"

she?

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously thinking about her grandfather's words, she casually responded, "There is nothing to do. My family is going to let me see them. I will probably stay in seclusion recently and not cause trouble."

Looking at each other?

Yan Junchu was stunned for a moment. Yes, Su Xinyi had reached the age where he wanted to see each other and get engaged.

After Su Xinyi finished talking about the business, he didn't want to waste His Highness the Crown Prince's time, so he stood up and left, "I came out in a hurry, so I'm afraid my family will be worried, so I ask for your forgiveness."

Yan Junchu nodded, "I'll have someone take you back."

Su Xinyi immediately refused, "Don't bother Your Highness, I can still suffer a loss with my skills."

It was rare for Yan Junchu to be silent, too.

Su Xinyi smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will take my leave."

"Su Xinyi."

Su Xinyi turned around and looked at His Highness the Crown Prince, "Does His Highness have any other instructions?"

Su Xinyi's eyes were clean, and she even looked at him with respect. Yan Junchu clenched his fingertips under his long sleeves, and smiled as white as jade, "It's okay, go back."

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness's casual posture and expression as usual, as if he really just called her casually, so she turned around and left without paying attention.

Yan Junchu stood in front of the window on the second floor, with the sun shining on him. His extremely white face had a straight nose, thin lips pressed tightly, and a sharp and distant aura enveloped him.

He lowered his head and watched Su Xinyi walk out of Yiyuanju. He was clearly walking in the bustling market, but his back was cold and cold, which was incompatible with the prosperity of this world.

"Your Highness, it's time to go back." Yang Jin opened the door and said softly.

Yan Junchu didn't move. He didn't know how long it had passed before he suddenly said, "Yang Jin, what kind of person is Miss Su Liu in your eyes?"

Yang Jin said directly without thinking: "Sixth girl is cheerful and cheerful. She is very cheerful in doing things. She also values ​​friendship and friendship. She is highly capable, courageous, and brave and resourceful."

"Then what?"

Then?

Yang Jin looked at His Highness's back in confusion, and then what? Isn't this praise sincere enough?

Yan Junchu turned around and saw Yang Jin's confused look, then waved his hand, "That's it, go back."

Yang Jin followed His Highness out. He always felt that His Highness was strange. He seemed to have something wrong when he was hiding in the dark and watching the Sixth Girl leave. Could it be that His Highness and the Sixth Girl were unhappy?

Yang Jin didn't dare to guess anymore and followed His Highness out of Yiyuanju.

It was not too late for Su Xinyi to go back. Forsythia was relieved to see the girl back, "Fortunately, no one came to see the girl. Madam's sister Nan Xing came over to send a message that the madam is going to the Gao family tomorrow. I asked the girl if she would go. go?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "I'll go."

"Then slave girl, go and talk to Sister Nanxing."

Su Xinyi nodded, "Go."

Forsythia walked out, and Delphinium came in with Yuegui and Xiangxue to help the girl wash and change clothes. After finishing cleaning up, Forsythia also came back, followed by Grandma She.

Grandma She greeted the girl and said, "Girl, Madam Tai is going to Daling Temple to worship the Buddha in a few days. Ask the girl to go with her."

Su Xinyi nodded, just as she wanted to copy a few volumes of Buddhist scriptures and offer them to the Buddha.

After dinner, Su Qi asked someone to bring some gadgets, which he bought when he took Su Deng and Su Li out to play. Su Xinyi sent someone back to the kitchen to order a few things from Huaining. Sending snacks to several brothers.

I couldn't sleep for a while, so I simply went into the study to copy the scriptures, spread out the paper, grind the ink, and calmly collected my breath to pick up the pen and write the words.

You must be sincere when writing scriptures. Su Xinyi's heart slowly calmed down as he wrote. He carefully copied a small volume and then stopped writing. His wrist was a little sore. He hadn't written so many words in a long time.

Under the light, she looked at her handwriting attentively. In her previous life, she mostly wrote in small regular script with hairpin flowers, which is the favorite font of women in the boudoir. It is a big deal for any lady of the house to be praised for her handwriting.

It took a lot of effort for her to learn hairpin small regular script, but now the words on the paper have a faint edge, and the round fonts can't stop her boiling heart.

How could such a Buddhist scripture be enshrined in front of the Buddha? Su Xinyi reached out and crumpled the scripture into a ball, threw it into the wastebasket, sighed and sat down, and became even more upset when he thought of Shang Junyan's words.

His Majesty……

She naturally knew that the imperial prelude was cautious. The scene of meeting His Majesty in her previous life was still echoing in her mind. In her mind, His Majesty was a majestic emperor who was particularly impressive when he was not angry and powerful.

Who wouldn't be cautious in front of such people?

However, Shang Junyan's reminder was not that simple, especially when it came to her father. Everyone said that His Majesty trusted and valued her father. After her father died for the country, His Majesty also greatly rewarded the Su family.

However, in her previous life, her life as a businessman was like hell, and the Queen made things difficult for her. Did His Majesty really not know anything about it?

Not necessarily.

Early the next morning, Su Xinyi got up and had breakfast with her mother. After going to her grandmother's place to say hello, she followed her mother back to Gao's house.

Gao Yihua is already preparing to get married and basically doesn't go out now. She is naturally happy to see Su Xinyi. The Gao family is preparing for Gao Kaiji's marriage, and the whole house is filled with joy.

Su Xinyi's depressed mood also relaxed a lot. When she learned that her eldest cousin was pregnant, Su Xinyi was even happier.

Her uncle and aunt from the Gao family were still very kind to her. Mrs. Gao held her hand and asked her what happened in the border town. Although she knew that she was safe and sound, she still sighed.

During lunch, Gao Kaiji and Gao Kaihao both rushed back. The family had a happy meal, and Su Xinyi's mood was lifted on the way back.

When I copied the scriptures again in the evening, I could already control my pen very well. I finished copying a volume of scriptures religiously before washing and resting.

On the day of going to Daling Temple, when everyone was ready to go out, a message suddenly came from the palace and His Majesty summoned Su Xinyi.

Su Xinyi accepted the order respectfully, and had no choice but to ask her fourth sister to help her enshrine the copied scriptures in front of the Buddha. She changed her clothes and followed the visitor into the palace.

The Fourth Madam was a little worried, but the Tai Madam said calmly: "The Fourth Family will stay at home and wait for news, while the others will go to Daling Temple as usual."

Su Deng and Su Li looked at each other. They both had no official positions. Su Yi went to the Imperial Guard. Su Qi and the others took a few days off to accompany them around the capital and still had to go back to study. So today is They went to Daling Temple with them.

Are you still going to burn incense at this time?

The two of them didn't understand much, but they obeyed and did as they were told.

Su Xinyi had thought too much before, but when things got real, she didn't panic anymore. She walked into the familiar palace gate and followed the eunuch who delivered the order to wait outside the imperial study.

The sunshine today was just right, shining warmly on people's bodies. Su Xinyi stood with his hands lowered and did not look at the courtiers who came and went with surprised eyes, waiting for the call.
