It's like unexpected, but also expected.
Although the Chu family has not shown any ambition, they have not publicly stated that they have no ambition.
A neutral wait-and-see attitude is more like being ready to go and fight for that position at the critical moment.
Now that the fifth prince and the eldest prince each have their own support, the fourth prince has no chance no matter how hard he tries, so he might as well support the fifth prince, who has a relatively harmonious relationship.
This was a clever and clever move, which made Jiang Jizong nod his head.
Falling into the eyes of the head of the Ju family, he was heartbroken, hated and annoyed.
With the Chu family taking sides, the fifth prince's chance of winning has become far higher than that of the eldest prince.
Even if the Ju family draws on the Min family, it will be difficult to resist this general trend, so they can only start from other aspects.
Is it the love between a father and a son who was raised by his own hands?
Or are they childhood sweethearts with a deep love for each other?
The head of the Ju family frowned. He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't see Min Cifu take two steps forward at some point. He cupped his hands and said, "The same goes for ministers."
Or so?
So is what?
Support the direct descendant?
The head of the Ju family was completely shocked. He didn't understand why the Min family, which was tied to a warship, suddenly turned against them.
Only Tianjia, who was sitting on the dragon throne, finally nodded with satisfaction.
A truly close in-law relationship should be like that of the Jiang family and the Yao family, which have a century-old relationship, are mutually beneficial, and share the same spirit.
Rather than Concubine Ju using an imperial edict to bind the relationship and threatening the girl's family reputation.
At first, the eldest prince had a chance of winning, and the Min family could tolerate it. But now that they are losing their momentum, they will naturally not worry about this mere marriage.
Tianjia worked hard to get Jiang Jizong to act just for this scene.
As the Chu family and the Min family took the initiative to take sides, the Ju family became completely alone. Smart people should know that the next thing to do is to save their lives and live well.
As for the Zhu family and the Tao family who were holding back, the Tian family just walked over gently and said calmly, "It is true what you dear friends said. The establishment of a direct descendant is indeed the golden rule of the Chongqing Dynasty. I only hope that my son Chang Yan, don’t live up to my expectations and be a good prince who cares about the country and the people.”
As the last syllable fell, almost all the courtiers knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty is wise."
The head of the Ju family was shocked and angry, and had no choice but to follow the crowd.
In the civil and military circles of the dynasty, there were no supporters of the eldest prince.
"I will write the imperial edict for canonizing the prince when I get back. The canonization ceremony will be left to the Ministry of Rites. Remember to sew the prince's python robe." Tianjia warned in an erratic tone.
Qi Shangshu accepted the order.
There was a strange sound, but it was suppressed.
Tianjia could only be heard swallowing his saliva and saying, "In that case, let's leave the court without incident."
Manager Wu stepped forward quickly and carefully helped the dragon up.
The courtiers were suspicious, but they were still more concerned about the canonization of the crown prince. Some shrewd ones had stopped Jiang Jizong in advance and started asking questions.
The fifth prince, who was so weak that he had to rely on ten Tang Pozi to deceive him, now has the support of most of the courtiers.
Some of them were brought by him himself, and some were sent by his father.
But no matter what, the establishment of the crown prince has been confirmed, and it is absolutely impossible to change it unless he dies.
"Master Jiang, where have the fifth princes gone? Are they in the Third West Institute to receive the imperial edict?" someone asked impatiently.
"Yes, Lord Jiang, where is the fifth prince? I would like to send you a congratulations." Another person was equally eager.
Jiang Jizong raised his head. He didn't know where the fifth prince was, but according to human speculation, the fifth prince should be in a small second-level courtyard.
When I left, my future was bleak, and I even had to keep my relationship a secret, even going so far as to break into the bride's room when I met.
Now that he has the power and influence, everyone he cares about can be protected under his wings, and his relationship is no longer afraid of being exposed, so of course he can't wait to set off.
Go see the person you long for in your dreams, go apologize for the unintentionally ruined wedding, go find a warm nest, go...go home.
Go home.
The beautiful and frail little Highness wearing a brocade robe, and the soft and timid little doctor carrying a small medicine box.
Standing in front of the wooden door that I have dreamed about countless times, I clearly have a great desire in my heart, but I have lost the ability to speak and move.
They listened attentively to the chirping girl inside, the hearty and crisp laughter, the clinking of pots and pans, and the fireworks floating from the stove.
Compared with the cold palace, this is the real world.
"It's so good, so good." Wen Zhiyun's eyes were red, "I heard my sister's laughter again, my second brother's voice, and the familiar big elbow."
Chang Yan also smiled, with a bit of bitterness in his smile.
He is different from the fourth brother. The fourth brother has returned with glory and is the hero who protects his younger brother. His heart is full of joy and excitement.
He left without saying goodbye, refused to see each other, and was the culprit who ruined the beautiful wedding.
Even though I knew intellectually that my family would not blame me, my emotions were always sour and embarrassing, so much so that even though the door knocker was right in front of my eyes, I still refused to take it.
The chattering inside continued, as if they were discussing some happy event.
"Okay, okay, let's do it this way. Then I can eat with all my heart again." This is Jiang Sheng's joyful expression as he clapped his hands.
"You just know how to eat." Zheng Ruqian pretended to be angry, "The work will be yours then."
"Don't worry about work, my aunt and uncle will come to help me." Jiang Sheng was not afraid, "It's you, don't eat our wedding banquet."
"I'm the big boss, why can't I eat it?" Zheng Ruqian argued with his sister as usual.
Jiang Sheng put his hands on his hips, "You are not the big boss, fourth brother is."
So...whose wedding party is it?
Chang Yan and Wen Zhiyun looked at each other, feeling vaguely uneasy in their hearts.
Speaking of which, my sister is already thirteen years old. The more active families have already arranged the engagement and are just waiting for her to get married.
Even if a family loves their children, if they stay engaged for two years after their hair extensions, they will still have to get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen.
Could it be that the Jiang family arranged a marriage for Jiang Sheng?
This realization made the two brothers unable to sit still any longer, and no matter how many emotions they had, they had to leave them behind.
Chang Yan glanced over, and the guard stepped forward and patted the door.
The quarrel in the courtyard stopped instantly.
Jiang Sheng asked cautiously, "Who is it? Is the eldest brother returning from the break?"
"Impossible." Zheng Ruqian immediately denied, "If the time is wrong, I won't leave early."
"That's someone from Baiweisheng or Jiuzhenfang." Jiang Sheng scratched his head, "There's no way he's someone who heard about the wedding banquet and came over to have a few bites."
While the two were discussing, Jiang San had already come over and lowered the door bolt.
As the wooden door slowly opened, two young men of similar age appeared in front of everyone.
Jiang Sheng's expression was stunned for a moment.
The little girl stood there blankly, rubbing the corners of her eyes repeatedly, showing neither expected joy nor unexpected shock.
She took off her talent and agility, and timidly pulled up the corner of Zheng Ruqian's clothes, "Second brother, I'm dreaming again."
"I dreamed... that fifth brother came home."
