Some Conservative ministers came out to stop it!

"From ancient times to now, there has never been a precedent of directly conferring a title of consort. Your Majesty, please think twice!"

"How dare you!" The emperor frowned slightly, and glanced at the old ministers kneeling below him. "I have made up my mind, my dear ministers, there is no need to say more!"

Princess Xihe was leaning against the emperor's side at this moment, a hint of pride flashed across her eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, and she returned to her gentle and harmless expression.

At this moment, discussions arose all around, but because the emperor was still there, they could only discuss quietly off the stage.

"She was directly made a concubine. This Princess Xihe is really not simple."

"Yes, it seems that he has completely won the emperor's favor. He is really someone we cannot afford to offend."

"But if this is directly spread, it will really cause people to talk about it, which is probably different."

Su Jinyue stood behind the crowd, watching all this quietly, sneering in her heart.

She did not show any surprise at the emperor's sudden decision, but just lowered her head slightly and did not get involved in the matter at all.

Just as everyone was discussing this, a middle-aged man in official uniform suddenly stood up and bowed to the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, I think it is a bit hasty to canonize Princess Xihe as a consort at this time. After all, the assassination has not been investigated yet. It is better to discuss it later."

The emperor frowned when he heard this, as if he was thinking about what he said.

When Princess Xihe saw this, her heart tightened slightly, but she still maintained a decent smile on her face.

Su Jinyue noticed that the queen moved her eyebrows slightly, as if she agreed with the minister's words.

"Second Young Master Su was brave and fearless. He protected me and the emperor. Your Majesty will definitely reward him handsomely." The queen's gentle voice sounded, breaking the deadlock on the scene.

Only then did everyone notice Su Chengjiang, who had just rushed forward to subdue the little eunuch, and their eyes fell on him.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Su II had such a skill!"

"I never noticed him before."

Su Chengjiang is a simple-minded man. When he heard these words, he felt elated and a little proud.

Su Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that at this time, Su Chengjiang had to perform well in order to continue with their next plan.

The emperor could not continue with his previous words about conferring the title of consort, so he restrained his thoughts a little and said, "I am indeed a little anxious this time. I will confer the title of consort after the matter is fully investigated."

Princess Xihe's face suddenly turned ugly, but she couldn't lose her temper in front of everyone, so she could only grit her teeth and endure it!

Although Princess Xihe had a smile on her face, a flash of coldness passed through her eyes. She whispered, "I understand your majesty's painstaking efforts." Her tone was gentle, but she was obviously unwilling.

Su Chengjiang also came down from the platform and returned to Su Jinyue's side.

After he came back, his attitude towards Su Jinyue obviously became much better, "You still have some ability."

Su Jinyue glanced at him and said nothing.

Su Chengjiang couldn't help but ask, "How did you see that the eunuch's reaction was not right?"

If it was just an ordinary palace banquet, Su Jinyue would naturally not notice it.

But this time she knew in advance that the people from Western Xinjiang were going to play tricks, and her attention was all on the emperor and the empress, so she could naturally see the flaws.

But Su Jinyue would not tell Su Chengjiang this, "Who is like you? You came to the banquet and, if I hadn't reminded you, you would have been eating nearby and you didn't even know when a fight broke out."

Su Chengjiang felt guilty, "My eldest brother always brought me here before, and I was only responsible for eating."

Although she thought Su Chengjiang was a fool countless times, Su Jinyue still felt that Su Chengjiang was one of the stupidest people and no one could rival him.

"Say less." Su Jinyue said.

At this time, a tall guard brought the young eunuch over. He was tied up tightly and looked very embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, this person is indeed a spy, and we have uncovered some of the truth."

Princess Xihe's smile gradually faded and her face became paler.

"But we have not yet found out where the spy is from. Your Majesty, please wait a little longer."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Now that the man has been caught, there is no need to worry that he will not tell the truth."

"The palace banquet will continue today. There is no need to disturb your interest because of this matter."

The Queen also cooperated with the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I am a little tired, so I will go back to the palace first."

"Well." The emperor said, "I am a little tired, so please do as you please."

Everyone at the tables on both sides stood up and saluted.

"Farewell, Your Majesty, Queen."

After the emperor and empress left, Princess Xihe also used the excuse of feeling unwell and asked the palace maid to take her out of the imperial garden.

"Jin Yue, what do you think about what happened today?" Su Chengjiang came over and asked in a low voice.

"These people dared to enter the palace to assassinate, and next time they will touch the emperor's heart..."

Before Su Chengjiang could finish his words, Su Jinyue glared at him, "How dare you say that?!"

"You just made a contribution and you're already trying to cause trouble?!"

Su Chengjiang no longer had the arrogant attitude he had before towards Su Jinyue, "Don't dare, I'll do whatever you say, I won't say anything!"

At this time, Princess Yuzhu ran over from Concubine Xian's place and said in a baby voice, "Sister Su, Yuzhu is so scared!"

Su Jinyue patted the back of her hand gently in a soothing manner, "Don't be afraid, Sister Su is here, and with the protection of the Concubine Xian, Princess Universe will be fine!"

Yuzhu nodded innocently, seeming to believe her words, but there was still some uneasiness in her eyes.

"Then can I stay with Sister Su?"

"Sure." Su Jinyue smiled and said to Yuzhu, "Whatever you like to eat, Sister Su will get it for you."

"Okay!" Yuzhu sat obediently beside Su Jinyue and started eating.

Princess Changping saw this scene and couldn't help but say to Concubine Xian: "I don't know what Su Jinyue is capable of! She can actually make Yuzhu unable to leave her!"

"You must be careful of her! She treats Yuzhu like this, and I don't know what she is thinking!"

"And after my cousin disappeared, neither Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion nor she reacted. There must be something wrong with her!"

After what happened before, Concubine Xian has changed her opinion of Su Jinyue.

Yuzhu liked Su Jinyue before she could speak.

Although Concubine Xian was not very satisfied with Su Jinyue, she was indeed a capable person.

Seeing that Concubine Xian didn't say anything, Princess Changping began to exaggerate again, "Today I saw her talking to that person from the Xie family. Who knows if she has other thoughts!"

Concubine Xian glanced coldly at Princess Changping next to her and said, "If you are full, go out for a walk instead of gossiping about others here!"

"Cousin... aunt."

Princess Changping was frightened by Concubine Xian's attitude and dared not speak for a moment.

The virtuous concubine then said, "Duo'er is just missing, not dead. How do you want them to react?"

"Your Majesty can't find anyone, so how can he find someone in the Marquis' Mansion?"
