Chapter 221: Discussion

There is probably no grandmother, who will sit in the warm pavilion of the bedroom like Mrs. Mu, and seriously discuss such exciting topics as political assassination targets with her minor granddaughter.

Of course, she would not take the initiative to discuss these with Mu Hongsheng, but since her granddaughter asked, she was also willing to give her granddaughter her thoughts.

"This is the capital, and it's not the northern border pass to kill the enemy," Old Madam Mu smiled: "Even if it is an opponent, it can't be like your father and his father to the Rongdi people, fighting each other with a knife and a gun." Xie Xiang is an important minister in the court, who dares to attack him? Murdering Xiangye under the emperor's nose, is this impatient life? The emperor is not a good man, but he can't tolerate such a big crime. ”

"However, Sister Xie is Xie Xiang's granddaughter, and Sister Xie's father is Xie Xiang's eldest son, who was born in Jinshi and has a very good future," Mu Hongshang seemed to be a little unconvinced: "The emperor can't tolerate someone plotting to kill Xie Xiang under his nose, how can he tolerate someone murdering Xie Xiang's granddaughter?" The stakes are clearly just as high. I think what my grandmother said doesn't make sense. ”

"If you look at Xie Xiang's cautious attitude at the moment, you can know that the mastermind behind the scenes is only afraid that he is in the middle of a few people who are in the middle of the dynasty." Old Madam Mu sighed: "No matter how favored Fourth Sister Xie is, she is just a girl in the back house after all. Her value in the eyes of the emperor, how can she be compared to Xie Xiang and Xie Changjing. If she 'died in an accident', no matter how unwilling the Xie family is, no matter how much the emperor knows it, it is impossible to order three stations to investigate it regardless of the consequences and costs for the death of a girl. For the emperor, the way of checks and balances is much more important than a girl's life. ”

"I still think that grandmother is unreasonable," Mu Hongshang hesitated for a second, but still shook his head stubbornly: "Daddy, our Mu clan protects the people of the Great Zhou with blood and bones, and the reason why we are willing to guard the northern border with our lives is because every life behind our General Mu is important." Xie Xiang's life is important, and Sister Xie's life is also important, there is no distinction between high and low. ”

"You're right," Mu Laofuru nodded: "It's all human life, and it shouldn't be judged by the rich and poor, and the value of the rich and low by men and women is even more ridiculous." But if you think like this, others don't think like this, and the emperor won't think like this, if you think it's wrong, others don't necessarily think it's wrong, this is a fact that you can't change. Grandmother explains it to you, and you'll probably understand. There is no distinction between high and low life, but there is really a distinction between high and low in the value of each Rao. ”

"For the emperor, Xie Xiang, a very capable minister, is more valuable than the fourth sister Xie of the back house, and his value to the country and the court is very high. Just like a general who can command a thousand armies at the border pass, his value on the battlefield is higher than that of ordinary soldiers, it is the same truth. Think about it, if the mastermind behind the murder of your sister Xie is also a capable minister, in the emperor's heart, which is more important, a girl in the back house or a capable minister? ”

"What about justice?" Mu Hongshang looked a little unconvinced: "If Sister Xie really lost her life in the incident a few days ago, could it be that it is really as grandmother said, and it is regarded as an accident and no one cares?" ”

"If that's the case, Xie Xiangzi will take action to seek justice for his granddaughter," Mrs. Mu replied: "It's just that whether you can get it back depends on Xie Xiang's ability and the emperor's will." Hongsheng, you are also, some teenagers are a good thing, and you will understand when you grow up. The strong side will never need to seek justice, and their justice will be up to them. If you can't control your own future, you need to 'seek justice' with the help of others. ”

"If you can," Mrs. Mu pondered for two seconds before continuing, "Grandmother hopes that you will never fall into a situation where you need help to seek justice. That's why my grandmother allowed Master Huiming to stay in our house. Even though our Anguo Mansion is strong, my grandmother can't guarantee that she will always be able to protect you. In the future, you will eventually have to get married, and your grandmother will not be able to take care of you all the time, so I always hope that you can rely on more in your hands. ”

"I won't." Mu Hongshang hurriedly shook her head: "Grandmother, you are too worried about this. I am the only eldest sister in the Anguo Mansion, and no one dares to bully me. Grandmother, don't worry, I can take care of myself wherever I am. If someone really bullies me without long eyes, then he is out of luck. Daddy, if there is a dispute, try to be reasonable, if it doesn't make sense, it is a good way to reduce it with force. I can't do it! ”

Old Madam Mu couldn't help laughing at this sentence, she stretched out her hand and lightly tapped the tip of her granddaughter's nose and smiled: "Your father taught you some crooked reasoning." Okay, don't make jokes to make me happy. Grandmother knows all the twists and turns in your heart. Alas! I originally wanted to raise you to be carefree and worry-free. But who knew that under such pampering, you actually grew into a precocious and careful character. ”

"I learned it from my grandmother." Mu Hongshang replied with a smile, looking heartless: "Grandmother is far-sighted, so I will naturally follow suit." ”

Old Madam Mu looked at her granddaughter's smiling face and was silent for two seconds, then suddenly reached out and touched Mu Hongsheng's face.

"It's fine." She suddenly spoke: "Since you haven't developed a simple nature of being carefree and not worrying about everything, you might as well be smarter and more thoughtful, and be able to think about everything and not suffer losses." ”

"I don't have to lose." Mu Hongshang grinned: "In the future, I will practice well with Master Huiming, and I will be more powerful, and then no one will bully me." Grandmother can rest assured. ”

"You can stop a little, the more you do this, the more I feel uneasy." Old Madam Mu couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid that no one will bully you at that time, but you will bully others, and if you don't agree with each other, you will beat someone with your sleeves up." ”

"It's better to bully people than to be bullied," Mama Wang, who had been quiet for a long time, came up with tea and said playfully: "Our eldest sister, it's good to be like this now." ”

"But too," Mu Laofuru nodded: "If it's like the fourth sister of the Xie family, the wind blows down, I really have to worry." She was really lucky this time, she walked with us in red clothes, and met the king of Xin who was passing by, otherwise how could she save her life. ”

"Grandmother," King Qixin, Mu Hongsheng asked as if she remembered something, "If your sister Xie was really killed this time, the emperor would not necessarily care, I think it's still wrong." You forgot, Prince Yi wants to hire Sister Xie as the princess! The daughter of the Xie family may not be important in the eyes of the emperor, but Princess Yi is still very important to the emperor, right? ”
