Chapter 262: The Jiang Family's Ambition

Concubine Cui is intensively planning a counterattack against the acting princess, trying to win back the heart of the queen mother - but outside the palace, it is Jiang Muyao who will be the most discussed.

"Someone from the palace came to check so much, Mu Yao's love for Marquis Yuan is known all over the mountain!" Wei Yinlian came to find Song Yixiao early in the morning, and when they met, he said, "The news that she and the eldest prince Ji were locked in the house has also spread!" Now it's boiling outside, and there's everything to say! A lot of words are true...... It's unbearable! ”

He also said, "It's a shame that the Jiang family will close the door after returning that day, otherwise it will be annoying to death just watching the excitement these days - I heard that Master Jiang has already written a plea and confessed to ......"

After a pause, he said with a complicated expression, "There is no way to teach the girl!" ”

Song Yixiao understood her intention, and was silent for a moment, but sighed helplessly: "After I came back that day, I also asked my husband, what will Marquis Yuan do?" Kefujun said he didn't know. ”

"Xue Cao got married too early!" Wei Yinlian's purpose of probing for his friend failed, his expression darkened slightly, and he sighed, "Otherwise, we can still come to the door under the banner of visiting her, but now we can only come to you." ”

He also said, "Although it is said that Mu Yao is favored by the family, but after such a scene, even if Lord Jiang and his wife feel sorry for their daughter, her sisters-in-law will have to say something after all, and they can't blame Grandma Zhuge and them, after all, they also have children and have to think about their children." This is human nature, no matter how much Master Jiang prefers Mu Yao, he can't ignore the future of his grandchildren. So Mu Yao's situation is really not very good now. ”

Song Yi smiled and flicked the jade bracelet on his wrist, and said after a while: "You also know that Marquis Yuan is not a stupid person, even if no one tells him about these things, how can he not guess it?" ”

When Wei Yinlian heard this, he said silently: "So, it can only depend on whether he has a conscience?" ”

"After all, even if you force him to marry Sister Jiang now, he will be angry and not good to Sister Jiang after that, what can we do?" Song Yixiao said euphemistically, "It's not that I don't care about Sister Jiang, and I'm not afraid to pass these words on your behalf to him, the problem is that marriage is not a moment, it's a matter of a lifetime!" If Marquis Yuan really has no intention of Sister Jiang, it is better to use this to cut off Sister Jiang's thoughts, and the beloved person in this world is not the only one in the world, isn't it? ”

It's just that although she sent Wei Yinlian away with such a rhetoric, and looked back to see Jian Xubai, she also said: "Although Yuan Xuepei didn't do this thing, but Sister Jiang has fallen to the point where this name is ruined because of him, if he continues to stand by now, Sister Jiang will not say that this life will be ruined, and I am afraid that she will be depressed for the rest of her life!" ”

Jian Xubai is of course biased towards the latter between Jiang Muyao and Yuan Xuepei, so he feels that since this thing was not done by Yuan Xuepei, then even if Jiang Muyao has a bad reputation, there is no reason to ask Yuan Xuepei to stand up and give an explanation, in the end, marriage is no better than other things, and he can't barely come - but he knows that his wife has a good relationship with Jiang Muyao, if this is said directly, Song Yixiao will definitely not follow him!

After all, this is a lifelong event, Xue Pei has never considered marrying Miss Jiang before, and now that it has happened, he must always think about it-he didn't say that he wants to sit idly by, right?" ”

Song Yi smiled and thought about it, pursed his lips and said, "I just don't know how long he has to think about it?" The current Jiang family, I'm afraid that they are living like a year! ”

However, Song Yixiao guessed wrong about this - the atmosphere of the Jiang family is indeed tense now, but it has not reached the point where life is like a year.

Because when Jiang Yin privately convened his sons to discuss the matter, the first sentence he said was: "Although Yao'er's reputation is ruined this time, it may not be a good thing for our family!" ”

Seeing that several sons looked at each other, as if they didn't believe it, he explained, "This time it is clear that the acting governor is the two people who are mainly exposed by Concubine Cui, and Yao'er is just being taken by her as a cover!" It's just that there are so many people on the birthday of the princess of the country, why do you choose Yao'er as a cover? ”

His eldest son Jiang Muying subconsciously said: "Is it because Yao'er likes the surname Yuan?" ”

"That surnamed Yuan is young and has a dead leg, what is there besides a hereditary title?" Jiang Yin had been hating Yuan Xuepei for the past two days, and sneered disdainfully when he heard this, and said, "What good is it for the acting princess to calculate him?" Can you shake the foundation of the crown prince? ”

He lowered his face, "It's because of our Jiang family!" ”

"What does Dad mean, is our family being targeted?" The Jiang family produced Concubine Jiang Xian because of the ability of the children, and Jiang Yin's sons were naturally not mediocre, so he was a little bit more thoughtful - Jiang Muying groaned, "Is it because of this that I have affected my sister?" ”

Jiang Yin bowed his head and said, "Not bad! ”

"So who's eyeing us?" Jiang Yin's second son, Jiang Mufang, frowned and said, "If it is the princess of the acting country, even if my sister is locked in the house with her husband's nephew, but Ji Mingfei is that kind of person, how can our family give his sister to him?" If it's the prince's side, not to mention that the person surnamed Yuan hasn't moved until now, even if he comes to propose, we will agree, but we may not have to take refuge in the prince, right? After all, as long as we don't fall to the second king of Wei and Zhao, I don't dare to treat my sister badly if I forgive the surname Yuan! ”

"Naturally, both sides are eyeing us!" Jiang Yin said hesitantly, "Otherwise, you look at this matter: from Yuan Xuepei's lax governance of the family, it was Concubine Cui who placed her in front of the acting princess, and in the end it was the acting princess who benefited-King Wei and the crown prince, which side was innocent?" Oh, King Wei had formed an alliance with King Zhao earlier, and when the palace sent someone to investigate thoroughly, how could Empress Su not help? ”

Jiang Muying's brothers listened to it with a sinking face: "The matter in the court, the matter between men is settled, and it actually involves the innocent people in the back house, how can it be done by a gentleman!" ”

"That's naΓ―ve." Jiang Yin was very calm, "Although there is a word 'Jun' in the dispute between the princes, it has never been a dispute between gentlemen!" It is normal to be unscrupulous, and there will be no outsiders to say something taboo for the father: Do you think that you have not done anything unfortunate except for those brothers, sisters, nephews and nephews who have been killed after ascending the throne? ”

He paused, gave his sons some time to think, and then said, "Our family now has a place in the court, just in time for this situation, it is normal to be calculated - the problem is that King Zhao has the Su family on his side, King Wei has the princess of the dynasty and the Marquis of Fuyang, and the prince has Gu Shao, and the three parties competing for the prince have an indispensable right hand." Our family is more than enough than the bottom, no matter which side is chosen, whether it is trust or dependence, it is impossible to rank first! ”

Jiang Yin said this, not to pay attention to the head of the chicken rather than the queen of the ox, mainly, "So, even if we follow the right person, when we get a return in the future, we must go to the back row - calculated, compared with our family's current situation, it is really not rich!" ”

And you have to risk the extermination of your family!

Therefore, Jiang Yin felt, "It is better to continue to maintain neutrality, and when the new monarch ascends the throne, even if he can't take advantage, he will be excluded at most, and it won't affect his descendants!" ”

"It's just that since these two parties are eyeing us, how can we continue to hold the center?" Jiang Muying and Jiang Mufang glanced at each other and said in unison, "I'm afraid that this kind of calculation will emerge in endlessly!" ”

"That's why I said that your sister will suffer a loss, although it will affect our family and lose face, but it is not necessarily a bad thing!" Jiang Yin's eyes flashed with coldness, and he said in a deep voice, "I have already written a confession of pleading guilt for my goddaughter, and I asked for Zhishi in the excerptβ€”β€”"

Seeing that his sons' complexion changed when they heard this, he waved his hand to stop and continued, "Your Majesty will definitely not agree, and at that time I will go up again and ask for release!" In the end, Yao'er's matter is so uproaring, how can I, the father, not explain? In order to rectify the atmosphere, Your Majesty has to punish me! ”

Speaking of this, his voice was lowered again, "What's more, the prince, the king of Wei, and the king of Zhao all have assistants around them who can be pillars, but no matter which one practices Zuo in the future, do you think Your Majesty will rest assured that the Su family, the Marquis of Fuyang, the princess of the acting country or Gu Shao?!" ”

Xianjia Di Na must not worry!

Although he was about the same age as the prince when he ascended the throne, his upbringing with the prince was absolutely worlds apart - Emperor Xianjia was the winner of the proper wind, sword, frost, sword, and treacherous battles, so he was only in his early twenties, and as soon as he ascended the throne, he could cut down all his half-brothers and sisters except King Yijing under the persuasion of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and also managed Gu Shao, Jian Pingyu and other powerful ministers obediently, let him go!

But his sons, whether it is the prince who has been carefully trained by himself, or the king of Zhao who has been painstakingly cultivated by the queen and the Su family, who can do it?

King Wei is not to mention it - in front of the powerful acting princess, he is probably also a puppet when he comes to power!

"This is our chance to be a great minister!" Jiang Yin narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty is not worried about Gu Shao and the others, but it is impossible to eradicate them all, so I can only leave a secret hand and prepare to restrain them in the future - but if you want to restrain the Conglong Heroes, you must not be the enemy of the new monarch, otherwise the so-called restriction will be a joke." It can only be found from the people who are holding it now! ”

"If we continue to stay in the DPRK, according to the current intensifying dispute between the princes, it will be very difficult for our family to continue to maintain neutrality. So it's better to take a step back with your sister's incident, maybe you will get greater benefits! ”

Jiang Muying and the others looked at each other and didn't speak, but a smile gradually appeared in their eyes: "Dad is far-sighted, the children must obey!" ”

Although their current career development is good, who doesn't want to go to the next level?

According to Jiang Yin's analysis, as long as he maintains a neutral position, what awaits the Jiang family in the future may be the helper specially left by Emperor Xianjia to the new monarch, or the kind that is different from Gu Shao's tragedy and fame and fortune: Minister Gu Ming!

After finalizing the next direction of the Jiang family, Jiang Muying suddenly thought about family matters again, and said with a headache, "However, what should I do about my sister's marriage?!" ”

"Tomorrow!" Jiang Mufang's face was gloomy and she said, "Tomorrow evening at the latestβ€”if the surnamed Yuan continues to pretend to be dead, we will definitely not spare him!" ”

- Although Jiang Muyao is now involved with Yuan Xuepei and Ji Mingfei, the Jiang family has never considered the possibility of the latter becoming their son-in-law, but has been waiting for Yuan Xuepei to give an answer: After all, although Yuan Xuepei injured his leg, he has a hereditary title; second, it is the person Jiang Muyao likes; Thirdly, except for the injury to his leg, he is not bad in other aspects.

There were two major reasons why the Jiang family opposed this family business before: the abolition of legs and political disagreement.

The latter is known to everyone because of the rumors, and the Jiang family plans to admit that the goddaughter has no way, so this marriage has nothing to do with politics, and no one can make a fuss about this - so, it is better to fulfill the daughter!

The question is, isn't this damn surnamed Yuan, isn't he going to be responsible?!

When the Jiang family thought of this, even Jiang Yin, who was the deepest in the city government, felt bursts of anger surging up!
