"Auntie, Guan Hongdao, the commander-in-chief of Shuzhou, was secretly promoted by his great-grandfather." Tao Jingyi's voice was barely audible.
But in Concubine Tao Xian's ears, it was like a thunderous sound, which made her speechless.
As a palace concubine, of course she knew how much impact the previous mutiny in Shuzhou had.
She still remembered that this incident was related to the assassination of the emperor. Dou Cong, the minister of war, who went to Jiannan Wei to quell the rebellion, killed countless soldiers.
It was said that the mutiny was caused by the Shuzhou general Guan Hongdao's embezzlement of military supplies, but because Guan Hongdao was killed by the mutinous deputy general Ling Zhan, these became rumors.
After Dou Cong returned to Beijing, he also asked for a pension for Guan Hongdao.
The mutiny in Shuzhou ended with the Jiang family entering Shu with one hundred thousand taels. At that time, she secretly mocked the Jiang family for daring to reward the emperor's army, and they would suffer in the future!
The so-called matter was of no concern to her. She was leisurely watching the bustle of the mutiny, but now she heard another layer of the truth about the matter.
Guan Hongdao was secretly promoted by his grandfather, which means that Guan Hongdao is his grandfather's confidant! .
If the emperor knew this, he would definitely wonder whether Guan Hongdao's embezzlement of military supplies and the mutiny in Shuzhou had anything to do with the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang?
Thinking of this, Concubine Tao Xian's face turned pale, and it took a while to recover.
It has been several months since the mutiny in Shuzhou, and the Tao family is still fine, which means that the emperor still doesn't know about these things.
Tao Jingyi knew what Concubine Tao Xian was thinking, and slowly added: "Aunt, it's because the Jiang family wiped out everything related to Guan Hongdao."
The support is true, and the involvement of the Tao family is also true, but because of the Jiang family, the emperor does not know this.
When Tao Jingyi learned about these things, she was also frightened and broke into a cold sweat.
If the emperor knew that Guan Hongdao was secretly supported by his great-grandfather, he would definitely be angry with his grandfather because of the rebellion in Shuzhou. It is really hard to say what the Tao family's situation is now.
"Jiang family? But Jiang family...why do they do this?" Tao Xianfei couldn't understand.
She didn't think that the Jiang family had any friendship with the Tao family. The Jiang family must have other plans for doing this.
It turns out that the Jiang family had some plans at that time?
So, the reason why Jingyi came to Jingzhao Wuge and joined Princess Changding's team was because the Tao family reciprocated the favor?
"Aunt, this is indeed one of the reasons. However, my great-grandfather asked me to come to Jingzhao Wuge and join His Highness Changding's team. More importantly, he asked me to find out who was behind the scenes against the Tao family." Tao Jingyi Answer like this.
Of course, there was another important reason why great-grandfather did this, which was to protect Jingzhao's aunt and His Royal Highness, but there was no need to tell his aunt about this.
After hearing this, Concubine Tao Xian not only did not feel relieved, but became even more worried: "But if this happens, the emperor will be suspicious of the Tao family... This is not the best idea."
There are many ways for grandfather to find out the forces behind this, and there is no need to involve the Tao family openly.
"Auntie." Tao Jingyi said patiently: "The Jiang family and His Highness Chang Ding have done a lot of things. The Tao family also wants to express their opinions openly. Great-grandfather also wants to see what His Highness Chang Ding wants to do."
When it comes to dealing with the Jiang family, the Tao family can't just hide away if they want.
Although Tao Jingyi still couldn't figure out why the Jiang family would help the Tao family, because of Guan Hongdao's incident, the Tao family was already under the control of others. Since the Jiang family was now offering goodwill to solicit, they would take advantage of the situation.
In order to reassure Concubine Tao Xian, she continued: "Aunt, don't worry, my great-grandfather has already made arrangements. I am just a girl from the Tao family. Even if I join His Highness Changding's team, my family can handle it."
Presumably, His Highness Chang Ding also considered this. After all, they did not want to arouse the emperor's suspicion.
Concubine Tao Xian understood what Tao Jingyi said, but she really couldn't understand why the Jiang family did this.
"I'm just worried that once the Tao family gets in touch with the Jiang family, they won't be able to get away so easily. You don't know that the Jiang family is very powerful...more powerful than anyone else can imagine.
Everything is awesome. "
She has been dealing with Jiang Zhao for so long, and she has never had the upper hand. Jiang Zhao is still the weakest person in the Jiang family. You can imagine how powerful the Jiang family is!
Princess Changding is Jiang Zhao's only daughter. She deliberately recruits Jingyi not just to find a companion.
She believed that the Jiang family must have another purpose, but she couldn't think of it now.
"Auntie, the Jiang family must have other purposes, but our family also has other plans. Isn't that just right? The Jiang family is powerful, and our family is not weak either." Tao Jingyi said in a low voice.
The moment she met Princess Changding, she knew that she was not the kind of person rumored to be. She was really curious about why the once arrogant Princess entered the Wuge and got one of the ten gentlemen of the Wuge. Mr. Du Duan attaches great importance to one.
She thought that even if she came to Jingzhao Wuge for no other reason than to train, it would be a good thing if she could learn martial arts from Mr. Ten of Wuge.
After hearing this, Concubine Tao Xian truly understood.
It turns out that Jingyi's visit to Jingzhao Wuge was a testing step by her grandfather and a testing step by the Jiang family. They were just starting out for each other.
No wonder the emperor did not reprimand Princess Changding. After all, the emperor also wanted to test the attitudes of the Jiang family and the Tao family through this matter.
So from beginning to end, she was the only one worrying?
She thought of the previous quarrel with Jiang Zhao in Fuqing Palace, and felt a little better: she was not the only one who was worried about this matter.
Finally, she sighed helplessly and said, "So, it depends on how you get along with the Ninth Princess? So, what can I do?"
"Aunt, my great-grandfather said, you have to watch me to prevent me from making mistakes on my errands." Tao Jingyi said with a smile, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling.
The person who really did the work was not my aunt, or even her, but the Jiang family and Tao family behind the scenes. What happens next depends on both parties.
Concubine Tao Xian was straightforward. After thinking about this, she relaxed.
Anyway, the emperor has acquiesced, so you can do whatever you have to do. If things don’t work out, there will still be Jiang Zhao standing in front of you!
At the same time, in the Taifu's mansion, Du Tong twirled his beard and sighed: "The future generations are awesome!"
How could he have imagined that His Highness Chang Ding would have such beautiful hands?
This fifth person actually attracted all the forces in the army, and this force came from the Tao family in Northern Xinjiang!
If you think about it carefully, there are several people in His Royal Highness Changding's team, including soldiers both inside and outside, including jailers from the imperial edict, soldiers from the Shannan Guard, and girls from the Duhufu...
It will take at least two or three months for each of the ten martial arts arenas in the martial arts pavilion to pass the selection process. In other words, His Highness Changding will spend such a long time with these people day and night, and will have enough time to understand each other.
People's feelings are created by getting along with each other. No matter what happens in the future, after this period of getting along, a little friendship will always be cultivated.
Especially when these people are still young, this friendship is even more precious.
Can His Highness Changding's vision already see that far?
