Chapter 6 He Did Like Xiao Yun
Shangguan Sui curled the corners of his mouth when he heard this.
On the surface, he was pretending to be a normal three-year-old, but on the inside he started to complain like crazy.
[I give up. If you feel unwell, go find the doctor. Why are you looking for my dad? My dad can’t treat illnesses! ]
[Again, some tricks to attract favors~]
[My dad, this big pig's hoof, must have been fooled again, tsk tsk.]
Shangguan Lin: ...
What is a big pig's hoof?
He didn't think so at first, until Suisui said so.
Concubine Rou was indeed sick quite frequently, and basically it was when he was in the palace with other concubines that she came to say she was not feeling well.
He used to go and have a look, but now...
Shangguan Lin frowned, "Tell Concubine Rou to call a doctor for treatment. I don't have time."
[Wow, my dad actually rejected Concubine Rou]
[Big Pig's Hoof has improved, let me praise you a little~]
Shangguan Lin: ...
What do you mean by flattery? Isn't this worthy of a big compliment?
Come on, it’s good enough that Suisui is willing to praise him.
But when will Sui Sui be able to praise him three times?
Shangguan Sui took big gulps of rice from the bowl.
Both Chen Fei and Shangguan Lin looked at her tenderly.
It’s great that Sui Sui eats like a pig.
Shangguan Sui ate and drank his fill, and nestled in Concubine Chen's arms, blinking his eyes as he looked at Shangguan Lin who was drinking tea.
[Why doesn’t my dad leave yet?]
[Don't disturb my mother and I from sleeping! ]
[Ah~ I’m sleepy. I really want to sleep with my beautiful mother! ]
Shangguan Lin: ...
Why do you dislike him so much?
However, Shangguan Lin also knew that he had not gotten along well with Shunshun since he was born, so it was normal for Shunshun not to be close to him.
But it doesn’t matter, he will compensate Suensui well in the future.
Shangguan Lin finished his tea and chatted for a while before returning to Yu's study to continue handling government affairs.
There are still many things to deal with regarding the affairs of Zhenbei Hou.
The next day.
Shangguan Lin looked at Shangguan Sui who was still sleeping in her arms.
Sighed.
He brought Sui Sui to Yu's study just to hear what she had to say.
Look around you, are there any treacherous ministers?
But I didn’t expect that it was already noon and Suishun was still asleep…
Fortunately, I didn’t bring her to the morning court, otherwise Suishun might have slept the whole morning court.
But he didn't have the heart to wake up Sui Sui, so he decided to let her sleep until she woke up naturally.
"Your Majesty, the kitchen has sent over a bowl of fish soup." Eunuch Chen said softly.
Shangguan Lin nodded, "Got it."
After dealing with government affairs for the whole morning, he was indeed a little hungry.
As soon as Shangguan Lin opened the porcelain lid of the fish soup, she found that the little man in her arms immediately opened his eyes.
He was staring at the fish soup in his hand without blinking.
[I was awakened by the aroma~ This fish soup looks delicious! 】
Shangguan Lin: My daughter...seems to like eating it.
Finally, the fish soup found its way into Shangguan Sui's mouth.
Shangguan Sui was happily eating fish soup when he suddenly heard Shangguan Jue's voice.
"Your son pays respect to your father."
"Get up."
Shangguan Lin said calmly, "I will leave the matter of the Zhenbei Marquis' embezzlement of military pay to you."
"I obey your command."
[Wu Hu, it looks like my father has already started to act. The trick of the Zhenbei Marquis will definitely not succeed! ]
[She can continue to be a millet bug who eats and waits for death~]
The two chatted about some specific details.
After arranging everything, Shangguan Lin suddenly asked, "I heard that someone poisoned your medicine?"
Shangguan Jue was puzzled, "How did Father know?"
Isn't he the only one who can hear the fifth sister's thoughts?
Shangguan Lin: "It was Doctor Xu who told me. He said that you took a bowl of medicine to him this morning and let him see what kind of poison was in it?"
He knew that Doctor Xu had indeed come this morning and told him that the medicine Jue'er drank was poisonous.
But what really made him realize this was the voice of the year-old yesterday.
But he certainly couldn't tell this to his eldest son, because after all, he was the only one who could hear Suishun's inner voice.
Shangguan Jue nodded and believed the answer.
He did go to see Dr. Xu this morning.
But unfortunately, Doctor Xu didn't know what kind of poison was inside.
Shangguan Lin looked at his eldest son, whose face was pale, and felt a little distressed.
He really neglected his children too much...
"Can you find out who was behind the poisoning?"
"I haven't found out yet."
Shangguan Sui was eating fish soup while complaining madly in his heart.
[Who else could it be? Of course it’s Consort Xian! ]
[This Xiao Yun is Concubine Xian's person. The incident of saving my eldest brother last year was deliberately planned by them! ]
[However, Concubine Xian and Xiao Yun are both very cautious people. I don’t think you can catch them.]
Shangguan Lin:?!
Shangguan Jue:?!
They never expected it.
It turned out to be Concubine Xian!
Shangguan Lin fiddled with the jade bracelet without saying a word.
If it was Concubine Xian who was behind this, then this matter would indeed be difficult to handle.
He is not a tyrant, and he cannot arrest Concubine Xian without any investigation.
Concubine Xian gave birth to three princes, and her mother's family, the Marquis of Zhenbei, was even more powerful.
Although he is now preparing to deal with Zhenbei Hou, it will not be done overnight.
We still need to think long-term.
After listening to Shangguan Sui's thoughts, Shangguan Jue's mind worked rapidly and he soon came up with an idea.
"Father, I have an idea. Why don't we lure out the person behind this?"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Sui put down the small spoon he was using to eat the fish soup, and pricked up his ears to listen carefully.
The eldest prince's palace.
"What? Master Yunxing is going back to Beijing?"
Xiao Yun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Yes, Master Yunxing is a famous doctor of the time. He is finally going back to Beijing. With him around, I'm sure my illness will heal soon."
"Why, Yun'er, aren't you happy for me?"
Shangguan Jue looked at the person in front of him with a half-smile.
He did like Xiao Yun.
But this bit of liking disappeared the moment I knew the truth.
Xiao Yun bit her lip and said, "Of course I am happy. It is great that Master Yunxing is back."
She maintained a smile on the surface, but she couldn't help feeling irritated inside.
Master Yunxing is coming back?
Will he find out that the medicine was poisoned?
What about her and Concubine Xian's plan? !
Shangguan Jue looked at the panic that flashed across Xiao Yun's face and curled the corners of his lips.
Late at night, a thin figure sneaked out from the back door of the eldest prince's mansion.
In the darkness not far away, Tang Xing wondered.
"Prince, if we let Xiao Yun go like this, what if she never comes back?"
Shangguan Jue chuckled, "No, she has been hiding by my side for a whole year, how could she give up so easily?"
"She must be going to find Concubine Xian now to discuss countermeasures with her. If Concubine Xian can be involved, this matter will be successful..."
