Two months passed by unknowingly. Su Jingyao carefully counted the days and estimated that she would soon have a child.
After she stopped taking birth control pills, she still drank the nourishing medicine prescribed by Doctor Li on time and in the correct amount every day.
I asked Nanny Lin to take her pulse, and sure enough, she was pregnant.
However, Su Jingyao never told Jun Zechen the news because she received a letter from her father.
Her hand holding the letter trembled slightly, and her face turned pale.
It turned out that before she married the prince, Jun Zechen had already been targeting the Su family in the court.
So the Su family was never mentioned in the original book, is it because after Jun Zechen ascended the throne, the Su family was already wiped out by Jun Zechen?
The reason why her father wrote to her this time was because Jun Zechen doted on her, and even her father outside the palace had heard about it.
After all, it was no longer a secret in the palace that Jun Zechen had been neglecting other concubines for her.
Daddy wants to know whether the prince’s favor towards her is out of exploitation or love, which determines Daddy’s attitude towards the prince.
Before, Daddy had always been a staunch royalist and the leader of the conservatives. This was also the reason why Daddy Su was able to reach this high position. He was deeply trusted by His Majesty.
Since Su Jingyao married the prince, Su's father was actually the prince's man.
Although other people in the court did not know, Father Su had long known the prince's ambitions. After the prince ascended the throne, he would need his support to launch wars and attack other countries.
None of the conservative ministers were willing to do so. If he obeyed the prince, Su Dad would have to abandon the officials who supported him. If he did not obey the prince, Su Dad did not know how long he could resist the prince.
For an old minister like Su Dad who sits in a high position, all decisions are not so simple. He must consider the thoughts of those who follow him.
After all, the prince is still young. How could the old ministers in the court be willing to give up the good peace, spend a lot of gold and silver to train soldiers, stockpile food and grass, and then take the initiative to start a war?
So Father Su never knew how to respond to the prince.
But as the prince doted on his daughter more and more, and even talked to him a lot in private, and tried his best to persuade him, even Su Jingxuan was persuading him, he had to write a letter to ask his daughter.
The prince was a thoughtful person, and he was afraid that the prince was taking advantage of Yaoyao.
Su Jingyao's brows were tightly knitted into a knot, and her eyes were fixed on her father's letter.
The letter made a slight sound in her slightly trembling hands.
After reading the letter, her thoughts gradually began to become clear, and some things that she had never figured out before gradually became connected.
Therefore, in the original book, Daddy did not completely submit to Jun Zechen. Part of the reason may be because Daddy was a conservative minister who stuck to his own position and principles and was unwilling to easily participate in war, which was a waste of money and labor.
Another reason may be that in the original book, she died in the East Palace. Given her father's love for her, how could she cooperate with Jun Zechen?
Then there is a great possibility that the Su family will be eliminated by Jun Zechen.
But Jun Zechen really doted on her in this life. Perhaps for her sake, he would not attack the Su family again.
As for what Daddy said about being used, judging from Su Jingyao's own feelings, Jun Zechen's favor towards her did not seem fake.
But Jun Zechen had been reborn. In his previous life, he was a high and mighty emperor with a mind as deep as the sea.
Su Jingyao could only force herself to make rational judgments. As a person involved in the situation, she must not fall into emotional attachments, otherwise she would be blinded by one thing.
She couldn't just rely on her feelings. At least now she didn't have enough reasons to convince herself that Jun Zechen would definitely let the Su family go because of her.
She wasn't sure if Jun Zechen really cared about her.
Su Jingyao gently stroked her belly, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
She murmured to herself, "My child, you have come at the perfect time. Come with me to test your bad father."
Jun Zechen and his father had correspondence and even issued some secret letters, all of which were intended to deal with the Su family secretly, but they were shelved.
The reason why Father Su knew this was because Jun Zechen had been trying to win over the Su family recently and even confessed about the secret letter.
But it is both a way of winning over and a threat.
The existence of the secret letter is to tell Daddy clearly that if Daddy cannot be used by him, the Su family will be destroyed sooner or later.
Su Jingyao took a deep breath. She had to find these secret letters.
-
Yude Hall.
"Why has Your Highness been so busy these days?"
Su Jingyao said coquettishly, sitting softly on Jun Zechen's lap, holding a plate of grapes in her hand, each one of them was plump and juicy.
From time to time, she would pick one up and put it in her mouth, chewing it gently, with some juice still on the corners of her mouth.
From time to time, she would reach out to feed Jun Zechen one, with a playful look in her eyes.
Jun Zechen held her in his arms, his expression focused, but his right hand was completely unaffected as he reviewed the memorials.
"I want to ask you, why are you pestering me all the time today? What do you want to do?"
Of course she wanted to find the secret letter. During this period, Su Jingyao came to the study in Yude Hall every few days. She almost explored the study thoroughly, but she didn't see any secret letter at all.
Jun Zechen usually placed his memorials and documents directly on the desk, while some files or other letters were placed on the bookshelf next to it.
Jun Zechen's bookshelf is very large. Su Jingyao spent a lot of effort looking everywhere, but couldn't find it.
Is there any hidden mechanism?
Su Jingyao pondered in her heart.
If she didn't find him in one day, Su Jingyao could only come to Jun Zechen. The glory and safety of the Su family naturally could not rely solely on the favor of a man. She had to test it herself before she could tell her father what to do.
