"Grand Secretary Su is getting old and his energy is failing. He has long had the idea of ​​retiring, and Second Grand Secretary Xie Qian is very ambitious. So Grand Secretary Su took the opportunity to bring Xie Qian down as well and return power to me, killing two birds with one stone."

"This old man who cares so much for me, what reason do I have to hurt him by taking action against the Su family? Is it even necessary?"

Su Wanwan's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked up at him with a puzzled expression.

She was unaware of this hidden story.

So back then, my grandfather insisted on killing the "Eight Tigers" because he had set up a trap, and he was willing to put himself in the trap in order to get rid of Xie Cifu.

Later, the Xie family probably realized what was happening and wanted to cause trouble for the Su family.

Her father, Su Nancai, was so tolerant that he agreed to the Xie family's marriage proposal to her.

That makes sense.

Seeing that her expression had softened slightly, Lu Xingjian put his arm around her waist again.

"You're not angry anymore, huh?"

"The imperial physician said that getting angry is bad for the fetus."

Su Wanwan remained silent.

Even if he didn't do what happened to the Su family, his favoritism and indulgence towards Ma Ji was obvious.

Her expression was indifferent and aloof: "I'm not angry, can you leave now?"

Lu Xingjian was not so easily appeased. He picked up Su Wanwan and the two sat on the couch.

"I rush back to see you whenever I have a spare moment, and I dream about being intimate with you every night. Yet you still doubt me. Don't you have any conscience?"

Su Wanwan didn't buy it. "Whether you have free time or not is up to you. You're busy spending time with Maggie, how can you have any free time?"

Lu Xingjian frowned: "Ma Ji is just a decoy. Others may not understand, but don't you?"

"Now that the border reserve inspection in Datong has come to an end, and the newly appointed generals have all taken their places, there is no need to deliberately flatter those border troops anymore."

"Then I will not need to sacrifice my beauty."
