Chapter 189 Mission 016
It has been ten years since he traveled to this world and became Shao Qingyun.
Xiao Yu has firmly taken the position of prime minister at this time. The emperor is obsessed with cultivating immortality and does not ask the courtiers. His status is more than just a minister. If he is willing, he can change the dynasty.
He has completed the dream mission of male supporting actor Shao Qingyun. As for the main mission of pursuing the heroine Su Ling, Xiao Yu chose to give up because he really could not leave his wife Wang Nianyun in this life to pursue the heroine.
However, just when Xiao Yu was about to give up the main mission and leave the world voluntarily, Su Ling, who had been avoiding him, suddenly came to see him.
Xiao Yu was a little curious about Su Ling's purpose.
Over the years, Su Ling's life has not been easy. She was unable to fall in love with the male protagonist Jiang Li because of his interference, but later she also fell in love with the fourth prince, a great potential stock. At least compared to just For Jiang Li, the heirloom of the Hou family, the status of the fourth prince is much nobler.
After rebirth, Su Ling was indeed charming under the halo of the heroine, and the fourth prince also fell in love with her. Even because of her prejudice against Xiao Yu, she eventually pushed Xiao Yu into the prince's camp and lost the throne. However, the fourth prince was indeed very kind to Su Ling and made her become a high-class concubine against all the odds.
It's a pity that Xiao Yu's rise to the top was so fast that even the fourth prince had to look at his expression, let alone Su Ling, a little concubine.
But for the sake of Shao Zhi being a good daughter, Xiao Yunian never caused any trouble to Su Ling. She also honestly avoided seeing him and they got along well with each other.
Now Su Ling actually came to Xiao Mansion for some unknown reason and asked to see Xiao Yu.
This made Xiao Yu very curious.
******
Looking up at the dazzling plaque on the huge mansion, Su Ling, who was supported by the maid beside her, felt that her hands were shaking. Could it be nervousness, fear, or excitement? She had mixed feelings, and she didn't know how she would feel when she stepped into Shao's house again.
Today's Shao family is also today's Prime Minister's Mansion. It occupies a vast area and has an elegant layout. Su Ling walked towards the Shao Mansion with the maids under the leadership of the Shao family's housekeeper.
It seemed that everyone took it for granted that a prince and concubine arrived without even a real master to greet her, because this was the Shao Mansion, the residence of the world-famous Prime Minister Shao.
When Su Ling was taken to the garden pavilion to wait, she couldn't help but recall her previous life, how pitiful she was, but Shao Qingyun in the previous life was never so glorious. Could it be that her rebirth really changed Shao Qingyun? An opportunity?
She harbored hatred for Shao Qingyun. The death of her and her daughter in the previous life was inseparable from Shao Qingyun. If he was willing to protect her and her daughter, how could Wang Nianyun arrogantly torture their mother and daughter to death?
However, the life after rebirth made her even more unfamiliar. Although her daughter survived and she lived a life of a concubine with fine clothes and fine food, the resentment in her heart could not be eliminated.
But what can she do if she is a weak woman? So what if you find a backer like the Fourth Prince? In the end, he still ended up bowing his head and surrendering.
After a cup of hot tea turned cold, Su Ling waited for the man who made her feel resentful and helpless.
She looked up and saw Shao Qingyun wearing a green shirt. He was upright and noble. No one could tell that he was just a commoner farmer. Such Shao Qingyun was far from the person in her impression. , which made her feel dazed.
"You're finally here. Are you here to see Zhi'er?"
Su Ling, who was awakened from her trance by this voice, was stunned for a moment, calmed down her agitated mood, and said calmly: "I want to take Zhi'er away, she is my biological daughter."
In response to her words, Xiao Yu sneered: "You only let the Fourth Prince have contact with me before, and you yourself refused to meet Zhi'er. You actually remember that she is your biological daughter!"
This was not the first time that Su Ling proposed to take away Shao Zhi. Long before Xiao Yu was promoted, Su Ling had put pressure on him through the fourth prince to take away Shao Zhi, but she did not come forward in person or even meet him in person. Shao Zhi just asked the fourth prince to help on his behalf.
Xiao Yu could also guess the reason for this. It was simply that Su Ling felt that her past with Shao Qingyun was a shame, and Shao Zhi was the proof of that past. She was worried that if she personally came into contact with Shao Zhi, the fourth prince would misunderstand him. She still couldn't forget her old love for Shao Qingyun, so she let the fourth prince take the decision to handle the matter to show her determination.
Although the fourth prince loved Su Ling, he could not be said to be hopelessly in love. He was convinced by Su Ling that he was willing to accept Shao Zhi, but it did not mean that he really had no grudge against Shao Zhi in his heart. Naturally, he did not. Hui will be very concerned about helping Su Ling win custody of Shao Zhi. The fourth prince's move gave Xiao Yu an opportunity. Once Xiao Yu was promoted to become the emperor's confidant, he would be unable to seize Shao Zhi's custody rights. Therefore, Su Ling has not been able to formally meet Shao Zhi so far.
Su Ling was so embarrassed by Xiao Yu's words that she turned red, but she still insisted: "Since you won't let me take Zhi'er away, you can always let me see her, right? She should also know about her biological mother. Who is it?”
In fact, Su Ling took the initiative to come to Shao Mansion today because the Fourth Prince had secretly instructed him, because Shao Zhi was the only one in Shao Mansion. Prime Minister Shao was now very powerful, so if you wanted to make good friends with him, it would be best to start with Shao Zhi. And Su Ling is Shao Zhi's biological mother. How could the Fourth Prince give up such a good card?
In her heart, Su Ling was actually unwilling to use her biological daughter, whom she had owed for many years, to please her ex-husband and get benefits for her current husband, and she didn't have the face to do so. However, after the fourth prince lost power, his attitude towards her was not as good as before, and her life in the palace was not easy. She was a second-married girl, so naturally she had no choice but to give in.
Xiao Ying knew the tricks better than anyone else, but he did not make it difficult for Su Ling. He just said lightly: "Although Nianyun treats Zhi'er as her own daughter, she has never formally met you, her biological mother, since she was a child. It's good for you to meet her."
He trained Shao Zhi as his heir, so he let her know all the secrets and plots he should know, especially about her mother Su Ling and the Fourth Prince. He never concealed anything. He believed that the child he taught would not be easily fooled.
Of course, if she was really easily fooled... Xiao Ying looked at Su Ling's back as she went to Shao Zhi's courtyard and smiled lightly. If she was easily fooled after being taught by him for so many years, then give up!
Su Ling left the Shao Mansion in disgrace before she could stay for long, because Shao Zhi did not have much affection for her biological mother. She respected her more than she was close to her. It was impossible to get benefits from Xiao Ying by coaxing her. The little person was smarter than anyone else.
Wang Nianyun is probably the only person in the Shao family who cares about Su Ling's meeting with Shao Zhi.
In the original novel, Wang Nianyun should have had her own child, but after Xiao Ying replaced Shao Qingyun, his powerful soul did not match his body, and Wang Nianyun, a mortal woman, could not give birth to a child with him. So Xiao Ying let Shao Zhi be raised by Wang Nianyun all the time, in order to find a mother for the child and to prevent Wang Nianyun from having an empty child.
Xiao Ying did not take concubines, and had no children except Shao Zhi. Wang Nianyun was under great pressure. Shao's father and mother would secretly knock her from time to time. If it were not for Xiao Ying's clear support, she would definitely not be able to withstand the pressure. And Shao Zhi, who was raised by her, became her only comfort. Unfortunately, Shao Zhi was not her biological child, and Shao Zhi's biological mother was still alive. Now that Su Ling and Shao Zhi officially met, how could she not be uneasy?
Fortunately, with Xiao Yan's assurance, Shao Zhi did not become estranged from Su Ling after meeting him, so Wang Nianyun was relieved.

Xiao Yan has been in this world for more than ten years. After completing the male supporting role's wish mission, he was not in a hurry to leave, because he is currently the prime minister of a country. When the emperor was stripped of power by him, if he suddenly left and let the original owner return, I am afraid that the country would be in a mess, and the original owner might not be able to protect his family, so he had to arrange everything before leaving.
Fortunately, what really matters to his departure is the main task. As long as he does not complete the main task and does not take the initiative to give up the main task, he will not be teleported out of this world by the system.
Xiao Yan supported his trusted confidant to control the army, and took away the last bit of power of the most threatening Fourth Prince, making him a completely idle king. Considering that the original owner might not be able to control such a large court, he began to gradually delegate power to his subordinates, so that he only had the power to make the final decision, so as to avoid any chaos after the original owner came back.
The policies he implemented after he came to power all took a long time to take effect. He wrote down the subsequent practices and put them in the study. Even if the original owner didn't understand anything after returning, he could complete the subsequent arrangements based on this note, so as not to make mistakes or reveal the truth.
To be honest, Xiao Ying was very resistant to the male supporting system forcing him to do some male supporting tasks. He was once forced to pursue a heroine with a personality he didn't like. In order to vent his anger, he used some means to leave a big mess for the original owner.
Now is the first time that he has tried his best to pave the way for the original owner who is about to return.
He has considered all aspects and tried his best to leave a good situation for the original owner. Well, when he comes back, he will have a beautiful wife and a loving daughter, and he will be respected by the people. He even wrote down how to maintain this good situation.
Xiao Ying felt that the original owner Shao Qingyun really had to be grateful to him. It would be better if the original owner didn't like the heroine... He wouldn't have to be sent by the male supporting system to do the task of pursuing the heroine. Now he doesn't know what the punishment will be if he gives up the task!
