The second wife is charming to the bone, and Mr. Shen is very honest

Chapter 370

The emperor looked at Concubine Xi running away and couldn't help but frowning.

What on earth could have scared her like this?

To the point that she didn't even dare to get close to him.

The woman who used to live with him day and night is now forced to become a stranger to him.

She was so concerned about her own safety, and it was obvious that she was really afraid that something bad might happen to her, so she didn't dare to approach me.

Seeing how sensible she was, he naturally felt even more upset.

Jiang Sujin and Shen Yanfeng rode back together in a carriage. In the carriage, Jiang Sujin and Shen Yanfeng talked about this matter.

Jiang Sujin meant that the emperor favored Xi Zhaoyi, so they had to help Xi Zhaoyi regain his favor.

This can be regarded as showing one's attitude to the emperor.

As for what efforts the Second Lady and the Empress Dowager will make, that is their business.

At the very least, now that the couple has made their attitude clear, the emperor will feel relieved about Shen Yanfeng.

Shen Yanfeng felt that what Jiang Sujin said made sense, so he took a carriage directly to the Imperial Observatory.

Shen Yanfeng needed to find out what anyone had said before and let the Imperial Observatory make the correct judgment.

Jiang Sujin took a carriage back to the Shen Mansion by herself. When she returned to her own courtyard, the second wife was already waiting for her.

"Why did Second Aunt suddenly have time to come here?"

Jiang Sujin knew that the Second Madam must have come with bad intentions, so she didn't treat her well.

The Second Lady: "Su Jin, I came to see you today mainly because of the Empress Dowager's intention."

Jiang Sujin raised her eyebrows when she heard that, then picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

The Second Lady: "You also know that the Grand Empress Dowager wants Qingqing to be the Queen. After all, you are the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, so the Grand Empress Dowager means that you'd better praise Qingqing more in front of the Grand Empress Dowager and ignore those irrelevant people."

Jiang Sujin: "Where are the irrelevant people?"

Second Madam: "That's the ominous Xi Zhaoyi!"

Jiang Sujin: "She is my cousin, how come she has become an irrelevant person?"

Second Madam: "But Xi Zhaoyi is a member of the Li family after all. It won't do any good for the Shen family if you help her."

Jiang Sujin: "How can I ask you to help her? She is my cousin, can't I even talk to her?"

"Besides, whether Shen Yueqing can become the queen has nothing to do with me!"

Second Madam: "But you are the Emperor's Second Madam, the Emperor will look at your reaction!"

Jiang Sujin: "You were once the emperor's second wife. Even if the emperor wants to save your face, he has to let Qingqing be the queen!"

When the second lady heard this, her face turned red instantly.

She knew that Jiang Sujin was deliberately mocking her and that she had a bad relationship with the emperor.

"In short, the Empress Dowager wants you to help Qingqing ascend to the throne. No matter what method you use, you must do it anyway."

Jiang Sujin: "Did the Empress Dowager ask me to do this, or did you ask me to do this?"

When the second wife heard this, her expression instantly became even uglier: "You are also a member of the Shen family. The Shen family has a queen, which is good for both Hanhan and Hehe."

Jiang Sujin: "If it were someone else, we might be able to share the same glory, but unfortunately Qingqing is Second Aunt's daughter. Based on the previous division of the family, I really don't believe that Second Aunt can share the same glory with us."

Upon hearing this, the Second Madam's eyes widened with anger: "Su Jin, how can you say that? No matter what, we are all family, and family members naturally share the same glory."

Jiang Sujin looked at her and sneered: "You, how you want to support your daughter to become the queen is your own business."

"You have no right to force me to help you, and you have no right to interfere in my private affairs."

Second Lady: "But this is what the Empress Dowager wants."

Jiang Sujin: "Then you can ask the Empress Dowager to issue an imperial decree. I won't listen to your nonsense if I can't see it."

Jiang Sujin knew that it was impossible for the Empress Dowager to issue an imperial decree ordering her to help Shen Yueqing ascend the throne.

Naturally, the Second Lady couldn't get angry with Jiang Sujin, so she could only leave in a rage.

After a while, Shen Yanfeng suddenly came back.

Jiang Sujin: "Have you asked clearly?"

Shen Yanfeng: "After asking, it was my second uncle who went to the Imperial Observatory and suggested that the Imperial Observatory do as he wanted. That's why he said that Xi Zhaoyi's situation was unknown."

Jiang Sujin: "I see. The fire in the emperor's bedroom must have been intentional."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng frowned even tighter: "The only person who dares to do this must be the Empress Dowager."

Jiang Sujin: "Although it's just to scare the emperor, if the emperor knew, he would definitely be furious."

Shen Yanfeng: "I am afraid that by then, not only will the Empress Dowager be blamed, but even the beneficiary, the Shen family, will be feared by the Emperor."

Jiang Sujin: "So we must help Xi Zhaoyi regain her favor, and at the same time let the emperor see that we have a bad relationship with our second uncle and second aunt."

Shen Yanfeng: "How do we let the emperor know?"

Jiang Sujin: "Publicize the previous division of the family directly, and the emperor will hear it by then."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng raised his eyebrows: "You know, Dad has always told us not to air family disgrace in public."

Jiang Sujin: "Then tell me, do you want face or the emperor's trust?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng fell silent.

Jiang Sujin: "Don't worry, I'll be more cautious when I ask someone to pass the message."

Shen Yanfeng: "Why don't I believe what you said?"

Jiang Sujin curled her lips unnaturally and said, "No matter what, I am also the daughter-in-law of the Shen family. I will also consider my own face."

Shen Yanfeng glanced at her and said, "I don't believe your ghost. You are a very bad woman."

Jiang Sujin glanced at him sideways, then reached out and punched him: "You are not bad, you Shen family are the worst."

Shen Yanfeng grabbed her hand and said, "You are not a member of the Shen family?"

Jiang Sujin: "Of course I'm not, I'm a member of the Jiang family."

Shen Yanfeng: "Wrong, you belong to the Jiang family before you are sixteen, and after you are sixteen, you belong to me, Shen Yanfeng."

Jiang Sujin rolled her eyes at him, then turned around and tried to pull her hand away, but was grabbed by Shen Yanfeng by the waist.

"what?"

"Play with me for a while!"

"do not want!"

"why?"

"I was disgusted by your Shen family just now. I can't stand seeing the Shen family now."

"You yourself gave birth to four members of the Shen family, have you forgotten?"

"I will go to the prefectural government office to change their surnames in a little while. From now on, they will all be children of our Jiang family."

"you dare?"

"Why don't you dare?"

"Ah! What are you doing!"

"Take care of you!"

The next day, the emperor summoned the Imperial Observatory directly regardless of whether it was New Year's Day or not.

All concubines had to write down their birth dates, but they were not allowed to write their full names, only code names.

The concubines were naturally panicked, especially Shen Yueqing.
