"Besides, if I marry her, I might offend the two major tribes outside the Great Wall. The Crown Prince will definitely not let it go with my son. If he sets his sights on me, it will be even more troublesome."
Over the years, he has taken great pains to hide his incompetence. Many times, he even gave the credit to the crown prince, or his second and third brothers. What was this for
Isn't it just to prevent the emperor from being on guard against him and the prince from targeting him
"So are you ready to give up Su Qiao?" Imperial Concubine Yun was actually very hesitant at this time.
The emperor is still in his prime, and it is too early for him to abdicate. If their intentions are exposed at this time, considering how much he values the throne and the prince, he will definitely not end well.
But she was reluctant to give up on Su Qiao and the huge support behind her.
However, letting the prince marry a lame woman would definitely make people laugh at him. Even if he could find a way to make her disappear quietly after the marriage was accomplished, this matter would always be a stain on the prince.
Xi Muyan shook his head slowly: "Not for now, she, my son, is still useful."
Imperial Concubine Yun was having a headache thinking about it, but she couldn't come up with any good solution. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it. You can handle your own affairs. Anyway, I have already explained the interests involved to you clearly."
Xi Muyan quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, mother. I know what to do."
"That would be the best. However, this matter is of great importance. You should find some time to discuss it with your grandfather!"
Xi Muyan put down the cup, nodded, and said filially: "Yes, I haven't played chess with my grandfather for a long time. After returning to Beijing, I will go and play two games of chess with my grandfather."
"Well, he's old too, so you should spend more time with him when you have time!"
Ximuyan nodded slightly.
"Mother, you must be tired too. Please take a rest. I will leave now."
"Go ahead!"

At about nine o'clock the next morning, Su Qiao had just finished breakfast when Xiaoyu ran in hurriedly.
"master."
Xiaolan, who was making tea, gently scolded: "Why are you so anxious? What if you scare the master by being so unstable?"
Xiaoyu calmed herself down and said anxiously, "Master, the Prime Minister is coming here with his followers, and he doesn't look very well."
Su Qiao frowned slightly: "What is he doing here?"
It has been nearly half a month since they arrived in the frontier, and the old prime minister has only come to the tent three times, and not once was he to see his eldest daughter.
Now that Su Yuxin has moved away, what is he still doing here
Xiaoyu quickly told the news she had just heard, "Master? I heard that the second young lady was scolded by the Prime Minister yesterday? She was also confined to her room? She cried the whole night."
"Also, people outside are talking about what happened yesterday. The Prime Minister came here so early, it must be related to this."
Su Qiao was a little surprised.
Hasn't Prime Minister Su always treated his daughter Su Yuxin like a treasure
How could you bear to scold her
"What's going on outside?"
Xiaoyu glanced at Xiaolan and was a little hesitant.
Su Qiao noticed her expression. "Just tell me. I won't blame you."
Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said tactfully, "The general idea is that the second young lady is disrespectful to the eldest sister and does not distinguish between superiors and inferiors. Madam... Madam does not manage the backyard strictly and teaches the children... teaches the children... and is biased."
Su Qiao thought about it and roughly understood it.
After what happened yesterday, everyone outside probably knew that this Mrs. Su seemed kind on the surface and said that she treated her two daughters equally, but in fact she had always mistreat the daughter left by her elder sister and taught her own biological daughter to be willful and ignorant of rules.
