Chapter 493 You Look Like an Old Friend of Mine

In the courtyard.

Shen Qingning quietly pulled Li Xinyi and asked in a low voice: "By the way, sister Xinyi, can I ask you a few questions?"

Li Xinyi blinked, "What's the problem?"

"You and that person..."

Shen Qingning glanced subconsciously into the courtyard, and after making sure no one was eavesdropping, she whispered: "How do you know each other?"

Li Xinyi heard it and Miss Shen asked how she and Sister Suyi met.

Li Xinyi was a little surprised. Why would Miss Shen care about this?

"Sister Suyi and I met in Beizhou..."

With that said, Li Xinyi briefly told Shen Qingning how she met Li Suyi.

"I see!"

After listening to Li Xinyi's explanation, Shen Qingning suddenly realized: "She is your aunt's apprentice?"

"Yes!"

"Oh my God!"

Shen Qingning was slightly shocked.

She, she is actually Aunt Xinyi’s apprentice? !

In Shen Qingning's impression, women like Li Suyi should be solitary heroines who are not exposed to the fireworks of the world.

Who can be her master?

"Your aunt must be very powerful, right?"

Shen Qingning couldn't help but ask.

Li Xinyi thought for a while and nodded: "Auntie is indeed very powerful."

Although she has never seen her aunt take action, her aunt's strength is indeed unfathomable.

"That……"

Shen Qingning rolled her eyes slightly and asked, "Then, is she pregnant?"

She tried her best to show that she didn't care, but the eyes that were always looking at Li Xinyi's face betrayed her.

"Yes!"

Li Xinyi nodded: "Sister Suyi is pregnant!"

As the month progresses, the news of Sister Suyi's pregnancy can no longer be concealed.

"Then, the child in her belly..."

At this moment, Shen Qingning stared at Li Xinyi and asked, "Who is the father?"

"Also, who is her husband?"

This is what Shen Qingning is most concerned about.

She was curious and couldn't tell where the worry came from.

"this……"

Li Xinyi's face showed a bit of embarrassment, and he hesitated.

"how?"

"This, Sister Shen... I can't say it!"

Li Xinyi shook his head with a troubled expression.

"Why?"

Shen Qingning asked in confusion.

Li Xinyi looked back at the yard,

He shook his head and bit his lower lip lightly, with a bit of guilt on his face: "My aunt asked me to keep it a secret. I can't tell..."

Although, although she has a good relationship with Qing Ning.

Although she likes Miss Shen in front of her very much, Li Xinyi is not stupid after all. There are some things that can be said, but some things cannot be said.

For example, the identity of the aunt, the relationship between Brother Beifeng and Sister Suyi, and the child in Sister Suyi's belly...

Her aunt once told her alone that the news about the child in Sister Suyi's belly should not be disclosed to anyone.

Although he didn't know why, Li Xinyi remembered his aunt's teachings. Even though she knew that Sister Qing Ning would not tell this matter, she could not reveal it.

"So that's it..."

Shen Qingning felt a little regretful.

She is indeed curious!

What is the origin of the person who can become Li Suyi's husband and the person who can make her pregnant with a child?

What kind of person could conquer her? !

However, since Li Xinyi couldn't say anything, Shen Qingning didn't force it and didn't continue to ask.

Although curious, it seems to have nothing to do with her.

More importantly, Li Suyi is married and pregnant, which is undoubtedly good news for Shen Qingning.

I can't say what's good about it, but I just think it's good...

"Okay, sister Xinyi, since you stay in the capital, I will entertain you well during this period. You can stay here and tell me if you need anything. I will take you around the city in the next two days. change……"

Shen Qingning happily planned Famous's next plan.

…

"Sister Su!"

inside the room.

Shen Qingning happily pulled Li Xinyi into the room.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the sister I told you about..."

While introducing, Shen Qingning said to Li Xinyi: "She is Sister Su!"

"Hello, Sister Su!"

Li Xinyi shouted obediently, and at the same time looked curiously at Sister Su in front of her.

Can't help but be a little surprised!

This Sister Su...isn't she too pretty?

For some reason, Li Xinyi felt a little envious.

In terms of appearance, Li Xinyi is indeed pretty. Not to mention that he is a beautiful woman, but his appearance and temperament are also considered to be of the highest quality.

After all, no matter how you say it, the emperor and empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty were considered to be talented men and beautiful women, and they were also known as good stories. In terms of appearance, Li Beifeng can be considered handsome and delicate, quite handsome and talented. As for Li Xinyi, who was promoted to a sibling sister, her appearance cannot be bad.

But what people fear most is comparison.

Li Xinyi's appearance is definitely considered a rare beauty in this huge capital.

However, among all the women she knew around her, whether it was Sister Suyi, or Sister Yang Yu next to Sister Suyi, or the eldest princess Zhao Ying, or even the one that Mr. Li brought back to the manor. Miss Zhou...then to Sister Shen in front of her and Sister Su in front of her.

These people, in terms of appearance and temperament, are not inferior to Li Xinyi at all.

This made Li Xinyi inevitably feel a little... inferiority complex?

It can't be considered inferiority complex, but when compared like this, she became more envious.

"You are Xinyi, right?"

Su Shan had naturally heard of Xinyi's existence. These days, Qingning had also mentioned this Xinyi sister she knew outside to her.

Before, Su Shan was a little worried, worried that Nizi might be cheated by others outside.

Now, when she saw this girl, she was gentle and shy, and seemed a little cautious, which made Su Shan start to worry again... Such a good girl, will Qingning lead her astray?

When she learned from Shen Qingning that this sister Su was the eldest daughter of the Su Mansion, this made Li Xinyi a little restrained.

Previously in the courtyard, she had seen the splendor of the Su Mansion.

The entire Su Mansion was so big that she couldn't imagine it, and the decorations made her stare.

Li Xinyi had never seen such a magnificently decorated place, which was enough to show the financial resources and strength of the Su Mansion, which was definitely a wealthy family.

This made Xinyi feel a little uneasy.

Fortunately, Shen Qingning did not tell her that the Su Mansion was the residence of the prime minister of the current dynasty of Dazhao. If she knew the news, she would be even more shocked.

Su Shan was gentle in nature, so she quickly got along with Xinyi. Shen Qingning suddenly looked around in confusion: "By the way, where is she?"

Shen Qingning didn't know how to call her.

She only learned her name from Li Xinyi today.

Li Suyi!

A very nice and artistic name.

The person who can come up with this name must have a very high level of literary accomplishment.

And this name also seems to be very consistent with her temperament and image.

At this time, Shen Qingning felt a little confused when she didn't see Li Suyi.

"She seems to have gone out!"

Su Shan seemed to think of something and spoke softly.

"Going out?"

Shen Qingning was stunned.

"Yes!"

Su Shan nodded slightly, and glanced out the window inadvertently.

There was a trace of unspeakable worry in his expression.

...

It was late at night.

Su Mansion!

In the study, Su Jianan sat at the desk, checking the letters and information sent from below.

As the prime minister of Dazhao, the daily work of the Prime Minister Su in front of him was extremely busy.

Your Majesty has ignored the government for many years, and now it is getting worse. And all the memorials and information in the court and Dazhao fell on the Prime Minister.

Every day, Prime Minister Su went to the court to discuss with the six ministries to determine the content of the memorials sent below, and then sent the results of the discussion to His Majesty.

And often His Majesty would not even look at it for a few more times, but just review it directly. Later, he didn't even look at it, and directly handed it over to Prime Minister Su to decide.

As the original of the two dynasties, Prime Minister Su was the most prestigious person in the court of Dazhao, and also the person most trusted by His Majesty. Because of this, Emperor Zhao could rest assured to hand over the entire Dazhao court to him.

Such busyness day after day has caused the hair of Prime Minister Su to gradually turn white just when he reached middle age.

At this moment, the oil lamp was lit in the study, and Prime Minister Su was concentrating on correcting the letters sent by the lower level.

He frowned slightly.

At this time, a figure knocked on the door and then walked in.

"Prince Su, there is information from the palace that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is under house arrest in the palace by His Majesty. At the same time, His Majesty has secretly sent people from the Imperial Astronomical Department to the Crown Prince's Mansion."

"I'm afraid that His Majesty suspects His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Prime Minister Su frowned slightly, and soon relaxed again.

"I know!"

After a while, he looked at the letter in his hand, slowly put it down, glanced out the window, and found that it was late.

Prime Minister Su looked out the window and said lightly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is eager for success. I have advised him, but..."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already obsessed!

As the prime minister of Dazhao, Su Xiang spent all his energy in the court of Dazhao. He worked hard and made Dazhao the glory it is today.

However, some things will come sooner or later.

He had seen Zhao Jing's ambition long ago!

As the Crown Prince, it is naturally a good thing to have ambition. Although the current emperor has many children, these children are basically sent to fiefdoms after they grow up and are strictly guarded.

This also means that there are almost no people who can compete with the Crown Prince for the world.

In terms of talent and command, the eldest princess may be better than him. But unfortunately, the eldest princess is not a man.

Therefore, after being suppressed by the eldest princess for so many years, Zhao Jing finally found an opportunity.

For him, it is an opportunity, or it may be an abyss of no return.

"What will you do?"

Su Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes flashing with a little light.

The eldest princess was assassinated, and it must be the work of the Crown Prince. Now that His Majesty has placed His Highness under house arrest, it must have spread a dangerous signal.

Once the evidence is solid, I am afraid that what awaits Zhao Jing will not be a good end.

His Highness, he does not understand His Majesty at all!

Prime Minister Su sighed slightly.

After a moment, Prime Minister Su glanced at the figure in the room: "Pass on my order, keep an eye on all the sounds inside and outside the capital, as well as the movements of the ministers in the court. Report to me at any time if there is any disturbance!"

"Yes!"

After the figure disappeared, Prime Minister Su also slowly stood up, opened the door and left the study.

After just two steps, his footsteps slowly stopped again.

Under the eaves not far in front of him, a figure appeared.

A figure in white!

The figure in white, exuding a bit of chill, appeared silently in front of him.

At this moment, a strange woman like this appeared in his territory? !

Assassin! !

This was the first thought that came to Su Xiang's mind.

The assassin must have a great background to avoid the guards of his Su Mansion and sneak in front of him...

At this moment, Su Xiang instinctively sensed the danger, and the hairs on his body almost stood up.

However, when his eyes fell on the face of the man in white, his expression was slightly startled.

"You..."

As if he remembered some long-lost memory, Su Xiang frowned and stared at the face of the man in white in front of him.

"I don't know what business you have with visiting so late at night!"

Su Xiang spoke in a deep voice.

But his eyes never left the other person's face.

"You come here late at night, what do you think is your purpose?"

A cold voice without a trace of emotion.

Come to kill me? !

Su Xiang's heart sank.

The one who can appear here quietly and in front of him must be unfathomable.

Su Xiang did not shout or panic.

Over the years, he has encountered countless assassination dangers. To be able to sit in the position he is in today, he has long been as stable as Mount Tai in the face of such dangers.

The strength of the woman in front of him is unfathomable. He fully believes that the other party can easily take his life at the moment before he speaks.

"There seems to be no hatred between you and me, young lady?"

Su Xiang spoke calmly.

The other party ignored Su Xiang's words, her sleeves fluttered gently, and a silver needle that shone with a bit of cold air appeared in her hand.

"Young lady, you look like an old friend of mine!"

At this moment, Su Xiang spoke slowly.

Bai Yi did not speak, and his eyes were emotionless.

"My old friend died many years ago. I thought I would never see her again!"

Su Xiang looked at her, his tone still calm: "You and her, uuReading a book really look alike!"

Li Suyi frowned slightly, staring at Su Jianan in front of him, not understanding what he meant by this.

The man in front of him is the prime minister of Dazhao, who controls the power of the Dazhao court. If he can be eliminated, the Dazhao court will surely be leaderless and fall into chaos.

However, his words at this moment made Li Suyi feel a little uneasy.

This prime minister has a great reputation. He can govern Dazhao to the current level and can be regarded as a famous prime minister.

Li Suyi naturally would not underestimate him, so when she heard this, she frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"If possible, I want to see your mother!"

Su Xiang stared at Li Suyi, and slowly retracted his gaze after a long time.

Really alike!

It's not the kind of similarity in appearance. There are many people in the world who look alike, but few people are so similar in temperament.

When he saw her for the first time, Su Jianan even seemed to see that familiar figure in a trance.

But...

Soon, his heart sank.

She's dead!

She's been dead for many years!

...
