"He is your big brother's son, and also your nephew." He is your big brother's son, and also your nephew. Ming Chengjun didn't detect anything from Noble Consort Su's words. He flipped open a book and said: "If you like him, you can call him over often. He is currently also serving in the palace, and it's convenient for him to come over."

"The Emperor is right."

The smile on Noble Consort Su's face dimmed a little. Obviously, this was not the answer that she wanted.

She slowly turned around and looked at Ming Chengjun who was on the bed, as if she had something to say. However, she opened her mouth a few times and the words were swallowed back down.

Ming Chengjun sensed Noble Consort Su's subtle movements, "My beloved concubine, do you have anything important to say to me?"

"It's not anything serious." Noble Consort Su caressed his hair and said: "I just think that Zong Wen's facial features are similar to mine, does Your Majesty have this feeling?"

"You and Su Aiqing are siblings, and Zong Wen is your nephew. It's not surprising that your nephew looks similar." Ming Chengjun's gaze did not leave the book, and did not think much about what the Noble Consort Su had said.

"Your majesty is right. This concubine has made a fuss about nothing." The smile on Noble Consort Su's face stiffened as he tried to explain.

She, Su Zhizhong, and Su Zhiyan were actually not siblings from the same mother, and instead looked more like her own mother. Furthermore, Su Zhizhong's and Su Zhiyan's appearance was that of her father, so the three of them actually didn't have much in common.

Her biological mother was originally just a concubine under the Su Family. Because she died in childbirth, the manager's mother took care of her in her own room, treating her like her own daughter. Her two elder brothers doted on her even more.

Therefore, since she was young, she had always been a direct descendant, and many people did not know about this.

Initially, Ming Chengjun did not send anyone to investigate, so he naturally assumed that she and Su Zhizhong were siblings from the same mother.

Noble Consort Su picked up a wooden brush from the table and casually played with it in his hand, pretending once again to be unconcerned about it, he continued to speak about Su Zongwen, "Speaking of which, Ling'er and Zong Wen's personalities were very compatible. Although Zong Wen was born and bred in the countryside, his talent and character did not lose to Ling'er, what do you say, Your Majesty?"

Seeing that the Imperial Concubine was interested in her nephew, Ming Chengjun didn't want to let her down, so he praised him: "Zong Wen is indeed a good child, he is knowledgeable and knowledgeable.

"For the Emperor to give such an evaluation is sufficient proof of the love you have for this child." The Noble Consort Su smiled gently and probed, "Does the emperor wish to see such an outstanding child as Zong Wen?"

After Ming Chengjun heard this, he slowly put down the book in his hands, thinking that he was praising his concubine and making her eat, "Although Zong Wen is a good child, but our Ling'er will not let him go. As a prince, Ling'er is only a little harsh on him, he has always been outstanding. "

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the side of the Noble Consort Su. He sat beside the woman, lightly patted her shoulders and comforted her: "My beloved concubine, in my heart, only our Ling'er is the best. All these years, Ling'er has never let me down.

Of course, this was after he and the Imperial Consort had made up.

Noble Consort Su leaned on Ming Chengjun's broad and broad chest. Listening to the man's calm and powerful heartbeat, the hope ignited in her eyes grew dim bit by bit.

Originally, she wanted to take advantage of this moment of happiness and mention of Su Zongwen's matter with her. It was just that after she said all that, Ming Chengjun didn't think any further about it.

"Is there something on your mind?" Ming Chengjun looked down to see that the smile on Noble Consort Su's face had faded, and he looked to be in low spirits.

"When chenqie saw big brother and second brother today, she couldn't help but recall some things from the past." The Noble Consort Su shook her head lightly and said gently, "Thinking about how much pain Big Brother and the others have suffered in the past few years, this concubine feels a bit uncomfortable."

Ming Chengjun naturally believed Noble Consort Su's words.

"My beloved concubine, these matters have already passed. Now that the grievances on Su Aiqing's body have been cleansed, and she still has such a worthy son in Su Family, don't blame yourself anymore." Ming Chengjun consoled her while hugging her shoulder.

When Ming Chengjun thought about the suffering Noble Consort Su had endured in the past few years, his heart immediately ached.

"Chenqie understands." The Noble Consort Su nodded.

The two of them sat together as they chatted about many things. As they chatted, Ming Chengjun suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Ming Jiling and Su Zongwen had come to request orders, and said that they would lead their troops to eliminate the bandits.

"A few days ago, Ling'er and Zong Wen came together to request for an order. They wanted to personally lead the troops and go out of the city to eliminate the bandits." Ming Chengjun explained, "Are you willing to allow our Ling'er to go there?"

The Noble Consort Su had a shallow smile on his face as he rested his head on the man's shoulder and said gently: "Chenqie is naturally willing. Although Ling'er is chenqie's son, he is also a prince of Liang Kingdom.

After Ming Chengjun heard his beloved woman's words, the worries he had hidden in his heart suddenly disappeared. Smiling, he opened his mouth and spoke, "We have been fortunate to be able to have such a virtuous and virtuous woman as our concubine."

is your son, and also our prince. On the battlefield, blades and swords are blind, and we can't bear for him to go to such a dangerous place. This time, when we exterminate the bandits, we will send a few more people with good kung fu skills to follow them.

"Everything will be decided by the Emperor." Noble Consort Su nodded and replied softly.

"Then it's decided." Ming Chengjun nodded and summoned Eunuch Chen who was waiting at the door.

"Inform us of our orders, and order the Prince Su to lead twenty thousand elite troops to eliminate the bandits outside the city. The Assistant Minister of the Government, Su Zongwen, will be appointed as the field officer and will cooperate with the Prince Su in exterminating the bandits." Ming Chengjun instructed.

"This old servant obeys the decree." Eunuch Chen accepted the order and left the room.

Ming Chengjun and Noble Consort Su chatted for a while longer. The night was getting darker, and warm and fragrant jade was in his embrace. The candlelight in the hall shone on Noble Consort Su's face, making her look extremely graceful.

Ming Chengjun raised his arms and held her horizontally.

The fragrant tent on the bed drooped down, the candle flame swayed in the wind caused by a wisp of breeze, and a charming and charming scene flowed within the room.

Aside from the matter of the bandits causing trouble in the court recently, there was nothing major that had happened. However, today, the usually calm court was like a huge wave — —

The Emperor has consecutively issued two orders. One, there are bandits outside the city wreaking havoc, and today we have ordered Prince Su Ming Jiling to lead twenty thousand elite soldiers to clear the area. Su Zongwen has been conferred the title of a field officer and is going with the army.

Second: Han Lin Yuan Scholar Su Zongwen was promoted to the position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Government, he can be appointed to the imperial court to discuss politics, and his previous position in Han Lin Academy will not change.

When the two decrees, especially the first decree, came out alone at night, it immediately attracted quite a bit of discussion from the imperial court.

When they were in the imperial court, Ming Chengjun glanced at the court officials who had listened to his orders, and asked knowingly: "Does my beloved officials have any objections to the matter of the bandits?"

Prince Su and Su Zongwen could not say anything, because they were the two involved.

The crown prince's expression was normal as he lowered his head, making people unable to understand what he was thinking.

The court officials looked at each other, and one of the court officials said with a serious expression, "Your majesty, this subject believes that it is not appropriate for the Prince Su to lead the troops personally."

He bowed respectfully with both hands, then continued: "As a prince, His Highness Prince Su, first of all, your status is very important, and it is not appropriate for you to lead troops yourself. Secondly, Your Highness is young and vigorous, and I am afraid that it is difficult to intimidate you, so, in my humble opinion, we should send a general who has been to the battlefield before, and we can definitely suppress these bandits."

He was part of the Prince's faction, so when he said those words, he had long forgotten that Prince Su had been on the battlefield before, and was an expert in setting up formations. He only wanted to make Prince Su too proud.

"Censor Chen's words are wrong."

Chen Ling had just finished speaking when someone refuted him. He looked in the direction of the voice and his face suddenly turned extremely ugly.

"I wonder what thoughts the Supreme Court has?"

He glanced at the man walking out of the front row with a cold expression on his face.

Qin Song laughed, and bowed towards Ming Chengjun, then spoke out in a clear voice: "Raiders and savages, disrupting the lives of hundreds of people, burning, killing, stealing, and committing all sorts of crimes, if it were only to be suppressed, I'm afraid they would still make a comeback."

What he proposed was to be hanged!

After Qin Song finished speaking, he nodded to the people in the hall in unison. They all felt that what he said was reasonable. Seeing this situation, Chen Mu's face changed slightly.
