Those who are unconvinced and always want to replace her and help their daughters to rise to the top should also weigh their own weight, otherwise they will not be able to blame others if they end up like the Huang family.
She is a person who will not recognize her even if she is ruthless. Don't blame her for not caring about family ties and face when the time comes.
Jiang Yankun looked at the delicate calligraphy in hairpin regular script and couldn't tell whether it was written by his daughter or a ghostwriter.
But the meaning must be that of my daughter.
He glanced at the clan members gathered in the reception hall of the Jiang family. They probably all knew that the young ones could not suppress Jiang Yankun, so those who came were all older people, who could be regarded as the elders of the clan.
"Yan Kun! Huang Xicai from the Huang family has come to my house. He said that he sent his daughter to the palace to help the queen, but the queen was wrongfully accused of poisoning a good concubine. He drank poison and was kicked out of the palace. Is this really true? "
"How can this work? After all, she is young and her actions are too extreme. Now she has a good look and the emperor loves her a lot. If she gets old and loses her beauty in the future and the emperor stops doting on her, won't the family send a girl in to help her? Are you still favored?"
"Yan Kun, you have to talk to her carefully. She is too vicious and no man likes her. Now she is favored and no one cares about this with her. One day she falls out of favor. This will be brought to the table and affect His Highness the Crown Prince. The reputation!”
"She can become a queen, and her family has also put in a lot of effort. She behaves like this because she thinks that the little girl from the Huang family was sent to the palace under our orders. Is this trying to intimidate us old guys?"
"That's right! It's so outrageous."
…
These people were all expressing their dissatisfaction with Jiang Xinyue. If it were the old Father Jiang, he would have to turn into a super troll and spray them to death.
Knowing that her daughter is being favored now, they still want to send the little girl into the palace. Whether it is to retain the favor or to win the favor, these old people know in their hearts.
If you really want to help Sister Yue maintain her favor, shouldn't you wait until she loses power, really falls out of favor and has no hope of regaining her favor, and then sends a young, beautiful and capable showgirl into the palace to help her regain the emperor's favor?
It is just to see that she is now in power, the emperor loves her deeply, everyone in the harem surrenders, and the son she gave birth to is also established as the prince. It is the time when thousands of people are doting on her.
Sending their daughter to the palace at this time is to use her daughter as a stepping stone, hoping that Sister Yue will pave the way for their daughter. Once the emperor is really seduced by their daughter, Sister Yue's status will not be guaranteed by then!
Why does Sister Yue become the queen and the family has contributed a lot?
When he had not yet taken part in the imperial examination and had not become an official in the capital, when did the family think highly of their branch?
It wasn't that the family was willing to help Sister Yue, but that after Sister Yue became favored, the Jiang family's status rose with the tide, and they all received substantial benefits, so they listened to brother Yanxi and tried their best to help Sister Yue.
If his sister Yue has been a little noble since entering the palace and has not given them any benefits, will they help her?
Not at all.
Therefore, it is obviously a mutually beneficial cooperation, why do they make it sound like they are the one who makes selfless contributions, and if Sister Yue is not as good as they want, they are just repaying kindness with enmity?
After he went through these words in his mind, his anger finally subsided a little.
After being taught by Mr. Jing, he is no longer the troll Zikun he used to be, but the reasonable Bachelor Jiang.
"My uncles are right. I, Mr. Jiang, cannot be where I am today without the support of my family. But I want to make it clear, lest someone in the future ruins the reputation of the Queen and His Royal Highness. What do you think?"
"What do you mean?"
"If there's anything you don't understand, just ask."
"It has been more than three years since the Queen Empress entered the palace, and she has gone from being a noble to being the master of the harem. I am ashamed to say that, as a father, I have not been able to help at all. However, the Queen Empress has allowed me, an incompetent father, to be the master of the harem all the way. From the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple to the Zhengqing, then to the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and now I have become a cabinet minister, it is all because the emperor loves the queen and promotes me. She is extremely dangerous in the palace, and if she is not careful, she will be doomed. Today I put my words here and I will not allow anyone to harm my daughter under any excuse."
He had been an official for many years, and his fierce official power was so frightening that everyone looked away. Those who had ghosts in their hearts naturally did not dare to look at him.
Jiang Yankun snorted heavily from his nose: "The cases I have solved can go around the city. Don't play tricks in front of me. If I pierce this layer of window paper, everyone's faces will be exposed." It’s not good-looking. If you want this glory and wealth to continue, just be of the same mind as the Queen as before. If you have other thoughts that you shouldn’t have, the Huang family will serve as a warning to you. I, Mr. Jiang, will do everything in the name of the Queen. And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first, anyone... remember, I am talking about anyone who dares to harm their interests, I don't need the Queen to take action, I will expel those with ulterior motives from the Jiang family tree."
The old men who regarded their clan as their life were all so frightened that they dared not speak.
They had unanimously decided to appoint Jiang Yankun as the new clan leader, and now it was too late to regret it.
After leaving the Jiang family's gate, several old men stood together and discussed what Jiang Yankun had just said: "What did he mean? What do you mean he didn't help the Queen?"
Before the death of the late Queen, brothers Jiang Yanxi and Jiang Yankun wrote letters back to their clan, asking the clan to send rare and rare clothes to the Zhu family under the guise of Duke Cheng Guo. As a result, the clothes were poisoned with magic. Using the Mongolian sweat medicine to stun a cow, isn't this helping the queen?
"Are you stupid! Can't you understand this? What he means is that as a father, he didn't help the Queen, but it was the Queen who favored him that made him join the cabinet. Those of us in the clan are even less helpful. We are busy, let us not rely on our old age and kidnap the Queen because of our morality!"
"He has made a lot of progress. He has not directly pointed his finger at us and scolded us for being too old to die. With this progress, the Jiang family may be able to go further."
"Go home and ask the sisters to marry you! It depends on what Yan Kun and the Empress want. Even if they are allowed to enter the palace, it will only make the Empress unhappy. When the time comes, stealing chickens will end up losing rice. Don't let the excellent people in your family be ruined. All the girls are in it."
"What we want is nothing more than glory, wealth and promotion. As long as Jiang Xinyue promotes the younger members of the clan when he is in power, and is willing to let the Jiang family assist His Highness the Crown Prince, that's all. If we have internal strife, others will only be proud."
"That's the truth. Yan Kun has been very restrained and didn't scold us bloody. It shows that he still has a sense of family honor in his heart."
Jiang Yankun himself didn't expect that these old men would actually take the initiative to think of him well after he stopped cursing.
