Chapter 753: Star of Hope (9)
"I see you looked sullen when you walked in the door before, what's wrong? Is something going on? After lunch was finished in the Queen's Palace at noon, after everyone dispersed, Nanmen Hui asked while waiting for Chai Jixian, who was left behind, to change into more comfortable regular clothes.
"It's not for the Liu family." Chai Jixian pulled Nanmen Hui to sit down, frowned and said.
β.β¦..β Hearing the words 'Liu family', Nanmen Hui was silent for a moment, and his expression became blank and he didn't speak.
"I know that you have always had a grudge against Concubine Liu in your heart all these years. I always feel that the accident between the third child and your eldest brother Nanmen Mirror has something to do with the Liu family...... Didn't I have such doubts in my heart? However, our people have never been able to find direct evidence that the Liu family revealed the news of the third child to the 'Black Knight'. β
Looking at Nanmen Hui's appearance, Chai Jixian sighed, and he didn't care about continuing to talk about what happened today, but first pulled Nanmen Hui to enlighten her, even if he knew that his enlightenment was very weak, but he still said it.
"You also know that the relationship between our royal family and those families is not so much a relationship between monarchs and ministers, but a cooperative relationship. In the eyes of those families, the difference between our Chai family and them is just a family that is bigger than them. The majesty of the royal family has been inferior from generation to generation.
If we directly hook up the Liu family with the 'Black Knight' without evidence, don't say that the Liu family will be unhappy at that time, but I'm afraid that even other families who may not be good friends with the Liu family will think that it is our royal family that is jealous, and we can't see the Liu family become bigger.
I will think that our royal family can find an excuse to eradicate the Liu family this time, and we will be able to clean them up next time without knowing it. The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, in case the matter really makes us, not only will we not be able to clean up the Liu family, but it is also very likely that the Liu family will take the opportunity to unite those big families to fight against our royal family. β
β.β¦..β
Silently listening to Chai Jixian's words, Nanmen Hui's face showed a thick sadness: "I know what you said is right." But every time I see Concubine Liu, and see the people who came to visit her in the palace of the Liu family, it seems that they were unintentional, but in fact, they deliberately mentioned the third brother and the eldest brother or the 'black knight' in front of me, I can't help but hate them in my heart, and I can't help but feel uncomfortable. β
"I know you've been wronged. It's also my incompetence, watching Concubine Liu and the Liu family arrogant, but I can't effectively protect you every time. β
Chai Jixian's heart is not sad, as a third-level civilized emperor, there are still too many places where he can't do what he wants, especially in the face of those big families who are getting bigger day by day, from time to time he always has a sense of powerlessness. Knowing that it would be very detrimental to their royal family to allow those great families to continue to develop like this and expand without restrictions, but he was ...... with his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather Countless emperors who had seen this drawback even 10,000 years ago were helpless in the face of such a situation.
Because the cause of today's situation has to start with Emperor Taizu, the founder of the Chikun Empire. Now the vast majority of the first-class families and super families in the empire are still their partners when they followed Emperor Taizu to fight the world. Emperor Taizu's promise to them back then was to 'share the world'. Therefore, this has created a situation where the family can also independently own its own fleet, army and subjects without restrictions, and those who want to be loyal to the fleet, army and subjects only own their family, and the royal family has no right to command them at all-
In the past tens of thousands of years, the royal family has been growing and growing, and its strength has been bright and dark. But aren't the major families also developing and growing, and the forces in the dark are not to be underestimated?
And Chai Jixian knew that even they were secretly twisted into a single force, secretly rejecting the upstarts. For example, the Ran family, who was able to rank among the first-class families before, was supported by the royal family, but unfortunately, in the end, the Ran family still failed to stand, and was still jointly squeezed out by those old families.
Clenched his fists with his hands and clenched his fists fiercely, thinking that Chai Jincheng could finally follow Luo Hongyi and Gu Nuannuan as his ancestors and other members of the royal family wished, and Chai Jixian's heart, which was about to become a cultivator, was finally a little settled, and he was still a little fanatical.
In the future, as long as Jincheng is there in the future, it doesn't matter how many years his cultivation takes. As long as there is no news of his fall, he will undoubtedly be a big backer for the royal family. Just looking at his share, those old families don't dare to really go too far. Even when he returns from his cultivation mastery, it may not be impossible for the royal family to regain the right to release him with the help of his powerβ
The more he thought about it, the hotter his heart became, Chai Ji first made up his mind that while Jincheng was still in the family, he had to deepen his feelings for his family, his family, and the entire empire.
Thinking about it, Chai Jixian finally felt a lot more comfortable, so he said to Nanmen Hui: "Fortunately, the method you came up with yesterday was really used today." β
After telling her everything that happened today, especially the process of choosing Jincheng without hesitation, Chai Jixian finally said affectionately to Nanmen Hui: "Although my harem has accepted a lot of concubines over the years, those people are not something I can say I can't accept." β
He sighed: "You also know the current situation of the empire, and you can probably see it by my side over the years, even if it is the emperor of the empire, but I have too many last resorts." Whether you believe it or not, you have always carried the most weight in my heart, even if sometimes you have to be partial to others on the surface, but you have always been different. I have long decided in my heart that only the children born to you will inherit my throne. So even if the thirteenth spirit root is better than Jincheng? If I really choose her this time, then I am afraid that I will not be able to decide who my position will pass on to in the future. The fate of a prince who can't ascend to the throne ......"
Chaijixian shook his head: "I won't let that happen." β
Nanmen Hui's heart chuckled, and finally looked up at Chai Jixian with a touched look: "I misunderstood you before." I always thought that your feelings for Concubine Liu ......" were no less than mine.
"For her, I have that on my face, not only do you suspect what role the Liu family played in the accident of our third child, but even I doubt it in my heart. Even if the child you give birth to is a princess, in my heart, it is in front of the sons born to other women. Chai Jixian's words made Nanmen Hui think that he was usually very different from the three children he gave birth to, and immediately believed his words in his heart, and couldn't help but be moved to snuggle up to him and tears rippled, and at the same time, most of the mustard left by the accidental death of the third child in his heart was finally dispersed.
Holding Nanmen Hui, Chai Jixian knew that the knot in her heart had finally been untied, and she was finally relieved.
