Su Juan was originally wondering why Song Qianfan came to her yard for no reason and made such a big fuss. It turned out to be because of the Prince of Han.
Su Juan pretended not to understand, "I did meet Prince Han in the Imperial Garden, Sir, what happened?"
[Song Qianfan knew about this even though they met in the Imperial Garden. It seems that he does have a lot of spies in the palace.]
[However, he has already reached his hands into the palace, how could the old emperor not notice it? ]
Song Qianfan sneered in his heart. They were just a few spies. If they were so easily discovered, all his planning over the past few years would have been in vain.
"What did you say to cousin Jingwen?"
Su Juan shook her head and said, "Nothing."
[What can I say in such a short time? Say that you don’t take a shower or that you have bad breath and athlete’s foot? ]
[Do you think everyone is like you, with nothing to do all day and talking about other people's shortcomings behind their backs? ]
Song Qianfan paused with his hand holding the teacup. This was the second time.
This was the second time Su Juan scolded him like this.
Could it be that...
He frowned and said, "This prince, I heard that you two had a very pleasant conversation in the Imperial Garden."
Song Qianfan obviously didn't believe that Su Juan and Song Jingwen didn't say anything.
If you don't say anything, why just laugh?
She dislikes me so much, could it be that she thinks more highly of Song Jingwen?
Su Juan didn't expect that Song Qianfan cared so much about King Han and his son. He became so nervous just because she had spoken a few words to Song Jingwen in the Imperial Garden.
If it were someone else, Song Qianfan would naturally not care, but this person is Su Juan, whose ventriloquy can be heard by outsiders. She has so many secrets, and it concerns the position of crown prince, so he cannot help but care.
Su Juan still shook her head, "I just asked how are you. I and Prince Han really didn't say anything."
[What on earth is Song Qianfan thinking? He even wants to control what others say to Han Shizi. He hasn't even become the emperor yet, but he's already so suspicious. People who know him are guarding against Han Shizi, but people who don't know him think he's guarding against me? ]
[What can a weak woman like me say to him... Song Qianfan will be a tyrant in the future. Why don't you fight less and show off in front of the emperor more? ]
After hearing what Su Juan was thinking, Song Qianfan's face darkened. Su Juan kept calling him a tyrant, and he was afraid that someone would hear it one day, which would be bad for him, but he couldn't imprison her in the house...
He said in a deep voice, "Cousin Jingwen is a fighter, and he has a lot of hostility. I'm just worried that you, a girl, might offend him."
Su Juan raised her eyebrows, [Worried about me? That's really strange.]
Song Qianfan pretended not to hear Su Juan's sarcasm and continued, "After all, you are the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Jing's Mansion. No matter where you go, who you want to meet, or what you want to say, you must tell me first, so that I can help you think about it and prevent some people with ill intentions from approaching you..."
[Oh, you're monitoring my whereabouts in various ways.]
"These young masters and young ladies from the noble families have very complicated minds. I am also worried that you will be tricked by them..."
[That's right. The thoughts of you young masters and young ladies from noble families are all simple. ]
"Just like the quarrel at the palace banquet yesterday, wasn't it caused by the girls from the He and Mu families..."
Su Juan nodded in agreement.
[That's right. First I met a man who married for the sake of having a child to carry on the family line, and then I met another man who married for the sake of having a concubine's child. All of you young masters from the noble families in the capital are no good. Which girl can stand this? Tsk!]
Song Qianfan's face was dark. "Su Juan, did you hear what I said to you?"
Su Juan timidly replied, "My Lord, I will keep your words in my heart and will never forget them."
Song Qianfan's expression looked a little better.
The next second, Su Juan's complaining voice was heard.
[It's so annoying. I'm not a trash can. You keep dumping trash on me.]
Song Qianfan frowned, looking puzzled. He knew what garbage meant, but what was a trash can?
Anyway, whatever comes out of Su Juan's mouth is definitely not a good thing.
Song Qianfan said in a deep voice, "Copying the female precepts can help you calm down and cultivate your virtues. In the next few days, you will stay in the mansion and copy the female precepts a hundred times. When you have finished copying, you can go out again."
Su Juan stared at Song Qianfan's departing back in disbelief...
[Are you sick?! One hundred times!]
[Song Qianfan, you psychopath, if you want my life just say so! You damned beast, you are so shameless! ]
[Female precepts, female precepts, calm down and cultivate virtue, it’s bad enough that a dog can’t spit out ivory, it even spits out feces! ]
[I am so unlucky to be your concubine! ]
[Oh, a hundred times? I don’t have that much paper, so I can copy it? Song Gou! Dream on! ]
Listening to the endless insults and complaints, Song Qianfan suppressed his anger again and again.
He raised his hand and blew a breath into his palm, then sniffed it carefully, frowning, but he didn't smell anything.
His eyes fell on his feet, and he immediately hurried back to his yard, got everyone out, and stood alone in the room, took off his shoes and socks, hugged his feet, lowered his head and sniffed...
At this moment, the guard Li An hurriedly pushed the door open and said, "Oh no, my Lord! Du..."
Song Qianfan was seen hugging his feet and lowering his head to smell carefully. Li An was stunned and stopped talking. What was the young master smelling?
Could it be that...
The prince also has the habit of smelling athlete's foot? !
At that moment, Li An felt that he knew some incredible secret and his life was in danger!
The murderous aura on Song Qianfan's body rose and reached its peak.
Li An was panicking, "My Lord, is your foot injured? Who hurt you? Do you want me to ask the imperial physician to come to your house to take a look?"
Song Qianfan's complexion improved a little, and he put on his shoes and socks in a calm and composed manner. "It's just a minor injury, there's no need to alert the doctor."
"What did you just say was wrong?"
Li An breathed a sigh of relief, "The emperor has issued an imperial decree, handing Minister Du's case over to the inspector of King Han!"
The father and son of King Han have always been enemies of the Crown Prince in the court. Now that Minister Du has fallen into their hands, how can he have a chance to survive?
When it comes to Minister Du, Song Qianfan feels annoyed. Among the six ministries, King Han controls the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works, while King Heng controls the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Revenue.
He only had one Shangshu Mei He available in the Ministry of Personnel, but the Ministry of Justice only had a chief official who had no say.
Originally, they had hoped that Du Peng would take over the position of Minister of Rites and be able to take control of the Ministry of Rites. However, in the case of Du Peng, the evidence was conclusive and there was no room for maneuver.
This time, Su Juan really messed up his plans!
"The matter of Du Peng is a foregone conclusion. There is no need to worry about it anymore." Song Qianfan's eyes were dark. He walked to the table, wrote a letter, and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Li Ming, give the letter to Mei He and ask him to quickly arrange for a suitable person to take over the vacant positions of the Minister of Rites and the Ministry of Revenue. We must not let the people of King Han and King Heng take the lead."
