Sister Sheng'er did give her a letter before leaving, but there was also a purse in the letter, which contained this jade pendant.
Although she has always been curious about what Sister Sheng'er did with this jade pendant, but now she just wants to ask, why does Sister Sheng'er have such a valuable thing?
The jade pendant is square, with a special totem engraved on the back. At that time, she wondered why the jade pendant left by Sister Sheng'er looked more like some kind of token. Now it seems that Sister Sheng'er helped her again!
"Is this the jade order from Qin Xuanting?" Nangong Yizhi only felt that even the heavens were helping them.
"Yizhi!" Shangguan Shaochen ordered after playing with it carefully, "Take this and go to Rongcheng immediately, be sure to find those people, and bring them all back to Kyoto after dispatch."
Shangguan Shaochen had a serious face, "Since he is a soldier trained by Lao Qi, let it be his last gift to the emperor!"
"Yes, Yizhi obeys the order!" Nangong Yizhi put the jade order in the safest pocket on his chest, "Cousin, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down this time."
Three days later.
Nangong Yizhi, who hurried to Rongcheng, sent a message from Feige. It turned out that he took the jade order to the largest black market in Rongcheng, and easily found the whereabouts of those people.
The token left by Sister Sheng'er was indeed a token to dispatch them. Nangong Yizhi dispatched them with the jade token, and nearly 20,000 people followed him to and from the capital.
"The virtuous king contributed a lot to the defeat of Qin Xuanting this time. My prince would like to thank the virtuous king here!"
After handing the letter from Nangong Yizhi's flying pigeon to Su Ce to read, Shangguan Shaochen raised his teacup and shrugged in his direction, substituting tea for wine with a grateful expression on his face.
In the study room, the mist curled up. Su Ce sat on this side of the chessboard and took the letter. After reading it carefully, he quickly raised his teacup, "Second prince, you are welcome. Since I chose the second prince's side, I have done everything. Plan, but this king was lucky and won the bet."
In the name of saying that he is on his side, in fact, the members of the Xianwang Gang are just Mu'er, so how could he not know.
But in the world of adults, not everything needs to be said.
"The virtuous king has sacrificed a lot for this, but don't worry, this prince will make up for it in my own way, but..." Shangguan Shaochen paused, "The virtuous king is married to the Western Regions, and he has married the princess of the Western Regions. It has nothing to do with the Western Regions, so what does the virtuous king think?"
This was the first time they sat together and talked about his problems with the Western Regions.
Su Ce's bright eyes gradually dimmed, and his handsome face turned from joyful to gloomy just now.
Today he was indeed invited by the Second Prince to come to the Second Prince's Mansion. When he came, he sat in the study room drinking tea and playing chess. The Second Prince's words were full of gratitude and guilt towards him, but he finally revealed his true purpose .
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
He is the person who doesn't like to beat around the bush.
"If you want to completely break with the Western Regions, I can help you." Although Shangguan Shaochen's voice was cold, it was very firm and sincere.
Su Ce, who was drinking tea slowly, suddenly raised his eyes. He never thought that his first wife marriage would come to an end in less than three months.
He had no feelings for Mo Junyao's truthfulness, no matter whether that woman was causing trouble in the house or pretending to be cute and sympathetic, he never took a second look at her.
Marrying her is entirely for the sake of Ling Muer's fulfillment, but when does his relationship need to be dictated by others?
"No need."
Hearing the coldness of Su Ce's refusal, Shangguan Shaochen frowned, "I do not have the right to interfere with the housework of the virtuous king, but you should know that Amu De's strong intention behind Mo Junyao's marriage is that you are smart." Man, I don't believe you don't understand, if you block it in time at this time, it will only benefit you."
Hearing this, Su Ce paused with the hand holding the teacup.
That's right, what he said was indeed right, because Mo Junyao had caused troubles in the house many times, he could just find any reason to divorce her. It's better than in the future, the Western Regions will threaten him to do something that hurts the capital under the pretext of his status as a son-in-law.
Although Mo Junyao married him and married into the Celestial Dynasty, he is also the son-in-law of the Western Regions after all. Why would Amu De prefer to bear the humiliation and let the most beloved princess of the Western Regions marry over? If he didn't like the Su Mansion, what is it?
What is Amu De's real purpose, he is not interested in prying, but if the Western Regions wants to make trouble, it will only have disadvantages for his status as a virtuous king.
"Help me? Okay, I wonder how the second prince can help?" Su Ce accepted his kindness.
But soon, his indifferent eyes shot like a cold arrow, "Although the seventh prince has fallen, the threat of the second prince's taking that seat has not been completely eliminated. The sixth prince is helping you on the surface, but in fact he is planning to help you." You are very clear about killing someone with a knife! But how can the second prince help me before he gets that seat?"
If he could help, he wouldn't have put Mu'er in trouble back then, and he wouldn't have sacrificed his life to marry a woman he didn't love.
"I have my own way, you don't have to worry about this, as long as you have no objection, I will leave this matter to me." Shangguan Shaochen was silent for a while, his eyes became more determined.
"No need!"
Su Ce refused again without thinking.
"Why?"
Because I don't want to embarrass Mu'er.
Of course he wouldn't say that.
Ling Mu'er is already married to him, if he continues to say such ambiguous and imaginative words, it will only bring disaster to that girl, that is not loving her, but hurting her.
"I don't like others to meddle in this king's affairs. It's just Mo Junyao, and I can still deal with it. As for the Western Regions..." Su Ce's eyes flashed evil, "If he dares to break ground on my head, I will let him He will never have peace!"
Gritting his teeth and dropping a few words, Su Ce drank the tea in his cup in one gulp. The exquisite teacup was pressed on the chessboard. Looking at the chess game in front of him, Heizi had no choice but to retreat, but he only thought for a moment, gently After moving half a step, the universe was turned around.
"Second prince, accept!"
"Father is full of praise for King Xian's chess skills, as expected." Shangguan Shaochen nodded to him, not feeling ashamed to admit that he lost.
"It's getting late, thank you, Second Prince, for your hospitality today." Su Ce had already got up while speaking.
"In the case of the seventh prince, since Nangong Shizi has found the trace, there is nothing for me to do. I help you and I help myself. The second prince does not need to feel indebted. As for the housework of the king, the second prince can rest assured that I will take care of myself. Make up your mind." After speaking, Su Ce clasped his fists together, and before Shangguan Shaochen could persuade him to stay, he turned around and left.
What's the difference between doing so much and not needing to be grateful, and doing good deeds without leaving your name?
No, there is still a difference. Su Ce almost died in the secret passage of the Seventh Prince's Mansion in order to fight against Qin Xuanting.
"Mu'er knows that I have invited you over to the mansion today, and I have already arranged a dinner. Why don't you stay and have a light meal together." Shangguan Shaochen's words were very polite, but there was no pretense.
He was indeed angry that someone more infatuated than himself missed his girl, but he was not the kind of stingy person.
"Unfortunately, I especially like the hot pot that I ate at the mansion a few days ago. Yesterday, the king asked the servants to ask the second prince and concubine for the recipe. Before leaving the mansion today, I specially ordered the servants to prepare it. I am greedy. Take a bite of the beef in the bottom of the spicy soup pot, and don't bother."
Su Ce's words were like his steps, very decisive.
But when he walked to the door, he seemed to think of something again, "Qin Ruochen can send people to sneak into the death row, and can also keep an eye on the keen and cautious Qin Xuanting without being noticed. It seems that he has many spies in Beijing. But obviously he can Why do you have to share half of this pie when you have it all to yourself? The second prince is a smart man."
"Thank you!" Shangguan Shaochen said two words when he turned to leave the room.
When Ling Muer prepared the dinner table and came to the study, she happened to see Su Ce coming out of the room.
"Are you leaving?"
Hearing the familiar voice, the indifference on his face disappeared without knowing when, and turned into joy.
When Su Ce looked back, he happened to see Ling Muer's suspicious eyes. He nodded, "It's getting late."
"Didn't it be good to invite you to dinner?"
"Didn't you invite me last time?" Su Ce asked, his eyebrows and eyes were curved, like a crescent moon in the sky, very beautiful.
"Then you ate yesterday, why don't you eat today? It's rare for the virtuous king to come to the house, but I have developed a new dish, are you sure you don't want to try it?" Ling Muer tried to seduce him with delicious food.
Who knew that Su Ce would not be fooled at all, "If I can impress you with a few fresh dishes, then I won't be the number one prince in the capital!"
After finishing speaking, he opened his folding fan. Even though it was a cold night in late autumn, it still couldn't stop him from being handsome.
"When I met Zitong just now, he told me that you are always bored in the study by yourself. Anyway, there are no people you expect in the Xianwang Mansion. Why don't you stay and eat together? There are so many people." Ling Muer advised .
"Who said I have no one to look forward to?"
Su Ce almost turned back without even thinking about it.
Seeing her sudden change of face, Su Ce raised his steps and approached slowly, his eyes slightly raised, "You have the second prince to accompany you, so naturally this king also has my virtuous concubine, isn't it?"
It's fine if he doesn't mention Mo Junyao, as long as he mentions it, Ling Mu'er will feel bad in every possible way.
The person she feels most indebted to in her life is Su Ce. It would be fine if he married a good wife, but it was Mo Junyao.
He exchanged his lifelong happiness for her fulfillment, which cannot be compensated by any effort.
"Su Ce, it was I who proposed to get rid of the relationship with the Western Regions, are you sure you don't want to consider it?" When Su Ce turned around, Ling Muer hurriedly asked, and from what he said just now, he knew that Shangguan Shaochen's proposal had failed.
Sure enough, Su Ce stopped, looked sideways, and looked a little more unhappy when he looked at her.
Suddenly, he turned around and strode closer to her, raised his arms to grab her shoulders, thought for a while and then lowered them.
"The princess I married eight times in a sedan chair, how can I just throw it away?" Su Ce changed his self-deprecating face, and suddenly became serious, "Besides, some people, if they are in their hearts, they will last forever! Abandoning all previous efforts at this time, wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted?"
