Chapter 406 She is your biological sister
In Su Yanshu's situation, he first asked whether he would be implicated.
Su Huaiyuan didn't expect this either.
After staring at him for a while, he sneered and said, "It's too late to worry about being implicated now."
Su Yanshu said anxiously: "Father, it's not that I'm afraid, but this matter is serious. After all, it involves our family..."
Su Huaiyuan raised his hand to interrupt him: "I have already asked the emperor to lead the escort team to send the queen's coffin to the imperial mausoleum for burial."
Su Yanshu and Su Dingqin were both stunned.
"Father, why is this happening?" Su Yanshu was puzzled. "Shouldn't we stay out of this now..."
"Even if you withdraw, the fact that you used to be the prince's subordinate cannot be erased, and it will make others think that our Su family is heartless and disloyal."
Su Huaiyuan looked unhappy: "We were very close in the past, but now you are keeping to yourself. Is that enough? You might as well be more open and honest."
Although Su Yanshu was unwilling, he couldn't say anything.
"Then, my son doesn't have to go..."
"You and Ding Qin, both of you must go," Su Huaiyuan said straightforwardly, not allowing any doubt. "Although the prince is imprisoned, he will attend the funeral when the queen dies, so he will go too."
"When the time comes, you can just go with him."
Su Yanshu frowned and had to agree.
Su Dingqin said: "Follow my father's instructions."
"Father," Su Dingqin said again, "If there is nothing else, I want to go see if Shengsheng is back."
Su Huaiyuan nodded: "Okay, tell her about this and let her go when the time comes."
"Shengsheng is going to participate too?" Su Dingqin was surprised, "That's not necessary..."
"Not only her, but also some noble ladies in the capital will participate. After all, she is the queen."
"Just listen to me."
Su Dingqin: "Yes."
After he left, Su Yanshu also reluctantly suggested leaving. Just as he was about to speak, Su Huaiyuan motioned him to sit down again.
"You want to go see Zhiyi?"
Su Yanshu's heart skipped a beat and he felt a little uneasy. In fact, he had always wanted to go since he came back, but he had never made the time.
When asked, his subordinates all remained silent.
When asked by his father, Su Yanshu cleared his throat and said, "I did have this intention, but I haven't seen her since I came back."
"Don't go to see her. She's not in the house."
Su Yanshu was startled: "No, where did he go?"
"Don't worry about it. I have my own arrangements." Su Huaiyuan stared at him, "Put your mind away."
Su Yanshu's heart suddenly skipped a beat - this look made him suddenly feel as if he had never understood his father.
Su Yanshu lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye: "I... I don't have any thoughts, I just care about my sister."
Su Huaiyuan seemed to smile: "Yanshu, your father values your elder brother. I will take your elder brother to the war and support him to gain military merit and establish his prestige."
"But the Su family cannot only have military generals, and you are the greatest hope of the Su family, do you understand?"
"Your wife should be a daughter of a noble family, who can help you in your endeavors. Your father will choose one for you."
Su Yanshu looked up in astonishment: "Father, you..."
Su Yanshu's heart was filled with excitement, and the hope that had just been extinguished seemed to be ignited again by sparks.
"But, didn't you say that the prince..."
"As long as people are alive, there is hope," Su Huaiyuan patted his arm, "So, I said you should accompany the prince, do you understand?"
Su Yanshu actually didn’t understand. Killing officials and making dragon robes, such crimes... could the emperor forgive them?
How can the prince not be deposed?
But his father's confidence made him feel that there was hope for this matter.
He nodded slowly: "I listen to my father."
"But, Zhiyi..."
When Su Huaiyuan heard him mention this again, his face darkened slightly: "Let me ask you, Zhiyi's leg will never heal, and she can't take care of herself. Can you take care of her forever?"
"She didn't help you at all, so you don't have any regrets?"
"Also, she has already lost her virginity to Qi Mubai, and many people have seen it with their own eyes. Don't you care?"
The questions came one after another, making Su Yanshu dizzy.
Especially the last one, it was like being struck by lightning.
"What...what? What Qi Mubai? Ayi doesn't like him at all. That guy clearly..."
"That's the truth. It happened in the temple. Many people saw it with their own eyes," Su Huaiyuan said with a sharp tone. "Just give up on this thought."
Su Yanshu stood up suddenly and looked at him in astonishment.
"How could your father not know what you are thinking?" Su Huaiyuan said calmly, but every word was like thunder. "Even if nothing happened to her, there is no possibility for you and her."
"She is your biological sister."
Su Yanshu: “!!”
…
Yu Shengsheng's eyelids twitched and she raised her hand to touch it.
Fu Qingyin tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"My eyelids keep twitching. I don't know what it means," Yu Shengsheng said as he touched his eyes. "When Grandma Wu was alive, she often said that the left eye twitched for wealth, and the right eye..."
Before he finished speaking, Fu Qingyin interrupted and said, "If the left eye twitches, it means good fortune, but if the right eye twitches, don't believe it."
Yu Shengsheng was startled and couldn't help laughing: "Commander, you are... a little too much? I believe the good things, but I don't believe the bad things."
"If it's not good, why write to me?" Fu Qingyin said confidently, "Besides, whether it's good or bad can't be determined by eyelids."
Yu Shengsheng agreed with a faint smile: "That's true."
She herself didn't realize that in front of Fu Qingyin, she could already talk about Grandma Wu calmly.
Fu Qingyin thought that one day, she would be able to let go of all the pain. The scars might not be removed, but the wounds could heal.
There were footsteps in the courtyard, and the joyful voice of Golden Leopard: "Black and White!"
Hei Bai smiled and gave her a bag of fruit: "I went out of the city today and passed by a forest and picked some wild fruit. They are sour and sweet."
"Where's the master?"
Fu Qingyin opened the window: "What's the matter?"
Hei Bai walked to the window and whispered back, "Master, I just received news that the Queen's funeral will be held in three days, and her coffin will be buried in the imperial mausoleum."
"Su Huaiyuan requested to be appointed as the leader of the guards escorting the coffin, and will accompany the prince to the imperial mausoleum to escort the coffin."
Yu Shengsheng was slightly surprised: "Him?"
"Yes, the emperor has approved it. Moreover, many noble ladies and gentlemen will also go. After all, she is the mother of a country. I estimate that the decree will be issued to various prefectures this afternoon."
Yu Shengsheng choked up - did they still have to attend the Queen's funeral?
Isn't this disgusting to her?
She doesn't want to.
But looking at Fu Qingyin, he looked calm and didn't seem surprised.
"You know?"
Fu Qingyin poured her a cup of tea: "I did expect that."
Yu Shengsheng was puzzled: "Why?"
"I'll tell you about this on the way there." Fu Qingyin deliberately kept it a secret, "Maybe you can guess it yourself by then."
Yu Shengsheng was very interested: "Okay."
Fu Qingyin looked at the black and white: "Go and make arrangements. We will go to the imperial mausoleum together in three days."
Yu Shengsheng leaned closer: "Shall I go with the commander?"
Fu Qingyin raised his eyebrows: "What else?"
"Ride with me in a carriage, as you did when we went to the temple."
Yu Shengsheng hissed and deliberately asked, "What if the Su family wants me to go with them?"
