Views:

Su Yao was a little surprised. He put down his chopsticks and looked at Mrs. He.

She knew that Mrs. He was going to attend a banquet in the palace on New Year's Eve, but she didn't know that Mrs. He actually planned to bring her into the palace.

The candle flames in the room crackled and exploded. Old Mrs. Su took the scissors and cut the candle flames herself. She looked at Su Yao and shook her head, not knowing whether she agreed or disagreed: "A tall tree attracts the wind!"

"The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop." Mrs. He understood. Seeing Su Yao looking at her, she reached out and touched Su Yao's hair, motioning her to be at ease, and whispered, "Can't you see it? If we two old ladies are gone, neither her biological father nor her biological mother can be trusted. Although our two sons are also loyal, who can say for sure in the long run? I have to think more about Yaoyao."

She made it so clear that Old Lady Su could not help but stop moving, put the scissors on the table and sighed, "Yes, in the past, we were both boring, and we couldn't and didn't want to take care of many things, but now... now it's different, we have to get back the justice we got back, we have to cheer up in the future, and we have to arrange the children's affairs. You brought Yaoyao into the palace, but the emperor's temperament has changed a lot over the years, are you sure you can protect her well?"

Su Yao had also entered the palace in her previous life, but that was after Prince Zhuang ascended the throne. As Cheng Ding'an's legal wife, she entered the palace to meet the Queen, who is now Prince Zhuang's Consort Qin.

It was also at that time that the Queen talked about the interesting stories of Cheng Ding'an's childhood with a smile, saying that Cheng Ding'an had liked her younger sister very much since he was a child, and always said when he was a child that he wanted to marry her younger sister.

It was also from that time that she realized that Cheng Dingan was actually a kind-hearted person.

His coldness, disgust, alienation and indifference towards her were simply because the person he really wanted to marry was someone else.

Not long after that joke, Cheng Ding'an got his wish and married Qin's younger sister Qin Caiwei as his second wife.

Su Yao clenched her hands and then loosened them. Then she heard Mrs. He say, "Although his temper has changed a lot, fortunately some things have not changed..." Mrs. He hinted at something and said, "He feels guilty. I don't need the compensation myself, but it's only natural for me to take it. That's it."

Seeing that Old Lady Su nodded, she asked Su Yao what Su Xingxuan was doing. When she heard that Su Xingxuan was threatening to commit suicide, she couldn't help but sigh, "This is really strange. She deliberately dealt with you just to stay in the Su family, didn't she? Now that her wish has come true, she is a poor person who doesn't even want her biological parents. She can marry the legitimate son of the Bo family, but she doesn't want to?"

Old Madam Su sneered, "Yeah, I didn't realize she was so ambitious. I don't know where she went during the days she disappeared."

She sent people to investigate, but they couldn't find out who owned the house that Su Xingxuan lived in. They only knew that it belonged to a big businessman, but they didn't know the specific details, so it was very difficult to investigate.

Thinking of how Su Xingxuan was able to attract those desperate assassins to assassinate Su Rong in the beginning, she felt cold in her heart. She tapped her fingers on the table and looked at Su Yao, "Oh, Yaoyao, there is something I have always wanted to ask you clearly, but I have never had the chance due to the chaos. Now is the perfect opportunity. I want to take this opportunity to ask you, if it was Prince Zhuang who assassinated A Rong and dealt with your uncle last time, then was it Prince Zhuang who supported Su Xingxuan and gave her the ability to harm the Shen family's children after being driven out?"

It’s a pity that what happened back then happened so long ago that many things cannot be traced back to the past.

Su Rong had been investigating for such a long time and just when he got some clues, he lost the clue again.

Her mood inevitably became depressed again.

But thinking that Su Xingxuan would bring King Zhuang here, she regained her fighting spirit and hope. Since Su Xingxuan would bring King Zhuang here, it meant that King Zhuang definitely had something on the Su family. Otherwise, why would he have to deal with the Su family? And why would he have to deal with the He family as well

But how did Su Xingxuan know King Zhuang’s secret

She couldn't figure it out.

"It's not certain that she can contact King Zhuang directly." Su Yao knew what Old Lady Su was concerned about. After thinking for a while, he told Old Lady Su the truth: "Even if King Zhuang wanted to do it, he wouldn't do it himself. She is not qualified. She relied on others. But why she got close to that person, I also find it strange. That's why I asked you and grandma not to send Su An away."

Mrs. He raised her eyebrows and said, "You asked us to keep Su An later, just to help Su An, but now it seems that Su Xingxuan doesn't like Su An. Did you expect this?"

"That's not the case." Su Yao was just guessing. Besides, her original intention was to bring this pair of scum together, thinking that they were both selfish and would one day reveal their true colors and turn against each other in the face of pressure from home and the eyes of the outside world. But she didn't expect that Su Xingxuan really looked down on Su An from the beginning.

"But it's better this way." Su Yao smiled: "Su Xingxuan has never been a person who is willing to admit defeat. She wanted to commit suicide only because she has been locked up and wanted to test the real attitude of the mansion. Now that she has obtained the information she wanted, she will definitely take action."

This is the moment she has been waiting for.

Su Xingxuan was indeed very strange, and different from her previous life.

At least in her previous life, she and Cheng Dingan had no intersection, but in this life, she was able to join forces with Cheng Dingan. This is too strange.

She had a vague guess in her mind, but she still needed to confirm it.

Old Mrs. Su narrowed her eyes: "So that's why you..."

Before she finished her words, Yu Xia's panicked voice suddenly sounded outside: "Third Master, you can't go in! The old lady and the in-laws are having dinner. If you have anything to say, please wait for us to report it first..."

But it was obvious that Yu Xia and the others were unable to stop her. The curtain was opened almost as soon as she finished speaking. Su An rushed into the room with two obvious palm prints on his face. He didn't even bother to greet Mrs. Su and Mrs. He. He pointed at Su Yao and said, "What tricks are you playing? What did you say to Ruyi?!"

"How dare you!" Old Madam Su frowned. She knew that Su An had almost gone mad for Su Xingxuan, but she didn't expect that Su An would be so bold now. Seeing that Su An still stiffened his neck and looked unconvinced, Old Madam Su couldn't help but sneer: "Go back and look in the mirror and see what you look like now!"
