After listening to Mrs. Su's analysis, Su Qing felt even more hopeless in life.
His face suddenly turned gray, looked at Mrs. Su and said, "Mother, you can get a knife right now and kill me."
Mrs. Su was laughed angrily when she heard the words, she laughed and scolded, "It's just marrying a princess, as for making you unlovable?"
Su Qing looked at Mrs. Su in amazement, "Mother, you don't really want me to marry that princess, do you? Don't say that it's a matter of her liking Xu Yunchu, but she doesn't like Xu Yunchu, such a headless princess. Don't even send me."
Mrs. Su said jokingly, "Princess Shuya is not as bad as the outsiders say. Although the Queen Mother and Queen have spoiled her a bit, they are not spoiled to the point of domineering and vicious. Piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, knitting female red, Although she's not brilliant, she's not bad either. It's just that she likes Uncle Xiaoguo, was fascinated, and did some ridiculous things, which made her reputation worse."
Su Qing rolled her eyes.
Mrs. Su saw his respectful and indifferent appearance, she smiled and said, "Earlier, the queen mother wanted Uncle Xiaoguo to marry your sister, and the emperor wanted Xiaoshang to marry your sister. I thought the queen mother and the emperor were fighting, and our Su family was caught in the middle." , It's really embarrassing. I didn't expect that after the case of Concubine Yue, the head of the country stepped back from the court, and the queen mother took a step back. The emperor gave Xiaoshang an imperial decree to grant marriage. This matter was settled like this, so there is no embarrassment. But now the queen mother If the Empress and Empress want to marry you as a princess, seeing how caring you are today, if you don’t want to marry, I’m afraid it will be embarrassing. ****Follow the emperor, the queen mother is in the palace, it is easy to find you."
Su Qing immediately said, "Anyway, I don't want to marry her. If you want me to marry her, it's better to let me marry and become a monk."
Mrs. Su laughed angrily again, "Then you should become a monk and become a monk. The princess is honorable, but it's not unreasonable for you to be so disliked here."
Su Qing couldn't help rolling her eyes again, "Mother, you are really my own mother. What's so good about a princess? Since ancient times, those who marry princesses are either wimpy or wives and slaves. Promising children are not willing to marry princesses, don't you think Make your son useless?"
Mrs. Su laughed again, "Since ancient times, there have been talented children marrying princesses." After finishing the sentence, she said, "Now the queen mother and queen have just had their thoughts and haven't expressed their intentions. I'm just guessing. What are you in a hurry? My son Wenwu Shuangquan, it is your ability to be valued by the queen mother and queen. As for whether to marry or not, your status is here, not only the queen mother and queen have the final say, but also the emperor and our family's opinion, right?"
Su Qing said, "What if the emperor is also interested? Today, the emperor ordered me to go to the study to walk after my injury. This is also a favor. What if he wants to marry that princess to our Su family? After all, the Su family now holds Nan Qi's power. military power."
Mrs. Su pondered after hearing the words, "I was in Beijing recently, but I didn't hear that the queen dowager and the queen discussed with the emperor about Princess Shuya's marriage. , Your Majesty is so busy, how can you care about Princess Shuya's marriage? The Emperor ordered you to walk in the study, it should be for your reuse, and it has nothing to do with Princess Shuya."
Su Qing said, "I'm afraid that after these things are over, the Queen Mother and the Empress mentioned it to the Emperor, and the Emperor agrees, so what should I do? Mother, I'm your own son, you have to find a way to let me escape."
Mrs. Su thought for a while after hearing the words, and said, "If the emperor also wants you to marry the princess, our general's mansion is highly regarded by the emperor. Your father is in charge of millions of soldiers and horses in the western region, and your elder brother and second brother are also serving in the army. Your sister You also secretly received the royal post of secret weapons, and now the emperor let you walk in the imperial study, the so-called mighty grace of the emperor is really hard to shirk."
Hearing this, Su Qing sat up covering her wound, got off the kang and wandered around the room, "No, I can't just sit and wait for death, I have to think of a way." He took two quick steps, then walked out suddenly.
Mrs. Su hurriedly called to him, "Your wound is open, and the doctor hasn't come yet, where are you going?"
Su Qing said, "I'm going out of the city now to go to Lingyun Temple to recover from my injuries. Master Lingyun returned to Beijing with me. When he returned to Beijing, he asked me to send someone to Lingyun Temple to call him if I felt unwell. I don’t want to retreat anymore, I thought I might as well go to Lingyun Temple to recover from my injuries, if the mother calls me into the palace again, asks me about my health, and asks about my injuries, I’m afraid I can’t help but hit her.”
Mrs. Su was annoyed when she heard the words, and grabbed him, "No way, Princess Shuya likes Uncle Xiaoguo wholeheartedly. Even if the queen mother and queen are interested, the princess will not be happy. Mother is just guessing, why are you in a hurry? Not in a hurry For a while, you don’t want to marry if you don’t want to marry, just slowly think about it and shirk it.”
Su Qing shook her head, "Anyway, I'm an injured person now, and I'm still recuperating at home in Beijing. Lingyun Temple is quiet. I have to think about it, and maybe I can figure out a countermeasure. I'm frightened at home, for fear that the mother will find me again , It is estimated that this injury will not recover well."
Mrs. Su heard the words, "Although Lingyun Temple is not far away, but you just came back from running around, and running around again is not good for the wound."
Su Qing immediately said, "Master Lingyun is in the temple, what are you afraid of? The wound is open, just looking for him, maybe he will be better raised."
Mrs. Su didn't stop him anymore after hearing the words, she thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, I'll clean up and follow you to Lingyun Temple for a few days."
Su Qing was startled, looked at Mrs. Su, "Are you going too?"
Mrs. Su nodded, "This time, although it is thanks to Xiaoshang, it is Bodhisattva who blesses you. Mother also goes to the temple to offer incense, eat vegetarian food for a few days, and pray for your father, eldest brother, second brother, and your sister by the way." , and wish Xiaoshang a smooth journey to Yanbei, so nothing will happen to her."
Su Qing felt reasonable after listening to the previous words, and then listened to the last sentence, and said, "Even if Lu Yao is in Yanbei, Ye Chang can arrive safely, and nothing will happen to him, so you and the little girl treat him as a He is so weak, in my opinion, there are few people in the world who dare to provoke him. Whoever provokes him will not want to live."
Madam Su snorted.
Su Qing urged Mrs. Su, "Since you are going too, if it's still early in the day, then hurry up and pack up, let's leave Beijing as soon as possible."
Mrs. Su looked at Su Qing's appearance, thinking that the Queen Mother and Queen's attitude towards him today probably scared him enough. Although she said she was not scared, but Eunuch Yan's trip to and from, I am afraid that even someone with a heart can provoke him. It's good to go out to avoid some gossip, so she nodded, and quickly called the housekeeper to arrange it.
Su Qing took advantage of Mrs. Su's arrangement to clean up and went to the palace.
Wang Lu's eyes and ears are psychic, so he already knew that the queen mother and queen called him to Ci'an Palace today. He guessed the same as Mrs. Su, and he also felt that the queen mother and queen had taken a fancy to Su Qing.
Seeing Su Qing's terrified look, Wang Lu reprimanded, "What are you afraid of? Isn't it just marrying a princess? A man, if you don't like it, then don't marry her. What's so scary?"
Su Qing twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking it would be better for her grandpa! Nodding repeatedly, "Grandpa, you are right. If the queen mother and queen really want to reveal this, you have to make the decision for me."
Wang Lu snorted, "I'm scared enough to hide from the capital because of such a thing, let's see how promising you are." After saying that, he waved his hand, "Don't say that Princess Shuya likes Xu Yunchu, even if she doesn't like Xu Yunchu, she likes Xu Yunchu. The person you want is you, as long as you don't like her, she can't enter the Su family's door."
When Su Qing heard the words, she immediately told Mrs. Su that it would be difficult to handle if the emperor also cared about her.
Wang Lu didn't take it seriously, "The country is unstable, there are internal and external troubles, the emperor highly trusts the Su family, and he can only rely on the Su family for many things, and will not be forceful. Although the queen mother and queen are benevolent women, it is good to value you. As for the Su family Whoever you marry, whether it is the emperor, the queen mother, or the empress, if you don't like it, just push it away. Back then, the emperor liked your mother, but your mother didn't like it, and I only liked a poor boy, so I could push it away. Why don't you dare now? "
Su Qing suddenly felt that he really deserved to be his grandfather. After many years, he hadn't bent his back, so he suddenly regained some energy.
Wang Lu changed his voice and said, "However, it is better not to force some things. It is not good for the general's mansion or you to be forced. Although it is good to walk in the imperial study, it is inevitable that there will be suspicion of improper official career, but Now is an extraordinary time, Prime Minister Sun has given up on Sun Zeyu. You are similar to him, capable and capable, but it will not affect your future path. Let’s do this first. You can go to Lingyun Town for a few days, Lingyun Temple It is quiet and suitable for recuperating from injuries, and I should also think carefully about why I stumbled so much when I went to Beijing to handle the case this time, and I always have to learn from it and learn from it."
Su Qing nodded receptively.
Wang Lu told him to take good care of his wounds, and let him out of the study. Mrs. Wang waited outside the study, holding Su Qing for a while, seeing that he was fine, so she praised Ye Chang, saying that she had listened to Su Qing. Madam said that Ye Shizi had received the imperial decree of marriage, that Nuan'er had a good eye, that he had long thought that he was a good child, etc. Su Qing was very speechless to refute.
After Mrs. Wang praised Ye Chang enough, Su Qing finally left the palace, and Mrs. Su had packed up. The mother and son got into the carriage, left the capital, and headed to Lingyun Temple.
