Chapter 191 3 Grandma Jiang
It can be said that as soon as this news was passed back, the entire Hengyang upper echelons were shaken.
What is the Xiao Group? It can be said to be the breadwinner of the royal family.
In the modern era when the national tax revenue was returned to the public and the emperor could no longer take it, the Xiao royal family had a rather awkward period - they had plenty of food and clothing, but they had almost no money. It was the establishment of the Xiao Group that alleviated the royal family's predicament.
Thanks to the good management of Emperor Xianyuan and Prince Chenrui, the Xiao Group is now one of the top five groups in the country, only slightly behind a few old families such as the Ge family.
"I was saying, how could the late emperor, who loved and doted on Prince Chen Rui so much, not have any backup plans?"
"Yes, your Majesty has indeed gone too far."
"Yes, after all, the Xiao Group was built by the Emperor Yuan and Prince Chen Rui. Not only did he reap the benefits for free, but now he is suppressing Prince Chen Rui's daughter."
"Only Ge Yao is gone. Back then... Your Majesty was always very polite to Ge Yao."
"It's not just towards Ge Yao. Does she have the majesty of the emperor in front of Xiao Chun?"
"Your Majesty is also confused. You don't ask her to repay a favor, but at least don't repay kindness with hatred."
"That's right. If it weren't for Ge Yao, she wouldn't have been able to secure the throne, and she might even have lost her life. Has she forgotten everything now?"
……
Looking at the remarks of the court officials collected by his subordinates, Xiao Chen was so angry that he smashed the cup in his hand.
"Be bold!"
"Are you all going to rebel?"
Those court officials were more cunning than each other. These words were not collected by the Intelligence Department. They were clearly said by those cunning people specifically for her to hear.
Each of these words was like a blade, cutting into pieces the imperial majesty that she had maintained for so long.
She seemed to have returned to more than 20 years ago, when her mother, who was terminally ill, gave her some instructions and sent her away, leaving her brother alone. At that time, she didn't know what she was thinking, and she didn't really leave, but chose to hide behind the curtain and eavesdrop.
When the mother queen was alive, she was very strict with her subordinates, and the palace servants were all loyal and did not dare to disobey her wishes. However, she was about to die, and those palace servants were worried about their own future. They did not dare to fulfill their duties to him, the heir to the throne, as they had already decided, and chose to turn a blind eye.
"…Your sister is mediocre in talent, and her only advantage is that she is obedient. I do not have high expectations for her when I hand over the country to her, and I only want her to maintain the status quo. You are gifted, and if it were not for your health problem, I would want to train you, especially since your sister can no longer have children. Even if you cannot succeed to the throne, your children must be more talented than Achen. After I am gone, you must assist your sister well. In the future, when your children grow up, choose one with outstanding talent and change his surname to Xiao to inherit the throne. I have written this intention into my will and handed it to a reliable old minister for safekeeping."
Talent is mediocre.
obedient.
Hahaha, she has been working diligently since she was a child, just to live up to her mother's expectations and become a wise monarch who is loved by court officials and the people like her mother.
As a result, the Queen Mother actually said that she had no expectations of me.
Not looking forward to it hahaha!
Since you don't expect it, then no matter what I do, it's reasonable?
Why? I am the emperor, I am the master of this country! Why don't I even have the right to choose who will be my successor? Why should I be a custodian of the throne?
The palace servants stood outside the door trembling with fear, not even daring to breathe.
The Hengyang Princess's mansion was not peaceful at this time. Although the master was not at home, the servants had heard the news from outside. Although they were servants, many of them had high education and could naturally see that their princess had a quarrel with the man in the palace.
"Our princess is so tough this time, will His Majesty be angry?"
"Of course she will. The point is not whether she will be angry or not, but whether she will do something about it."
"Yes, the temper and methods of our Majesty... At the beginning, Prime Minister Fang made her speechless. She felt humiliated, but she couldn't do anything about Prime Minister Fang. Later, during a team-building trip, the servants of Prime Minister Fang's mansion were hit by a heavy truck driving while fatigued. Everyone in the truck was killed. Everyone said that there was no such coincidence. It was His Majesty who was warning Prime Minister Fang."
"Your Majesty, if you can't do anything to the princess, will you take action against us?"
After hearing this, all the young maids became a little panicked.
But at this moment, the sound of messy footsteps came, and an old and hoarse voice shouted over here: "Little girls, don't worry, the sky of our Ge Mansion will not fall."
After saying this, the figure of Kuai left with the help of the maids.
"That is..." The little maids were surprised and confused.
"It's Grandma Sanjiang!"
You Sanjiang was already very old, and although she insisted on not using a cane, the maids did not dare to leave her alone to support her.
"Grandma Sanjiang, will His Majesty really not take his anger out on us?" the little maid asked worriedly.
"Of course." Without waiting for the little maid to change color, the old lady said slowly: "But as long as you stay in this mansion, no one can do anything to you."
"Why?" The little maid was confused.
You Sanjiang, however, began to stare at the jujube tree beside him in a trance, muttering, "Sister Yao should be back from the military camp. Have you given any instructions from the kitchen? Have they delivered the milk-skin buns? Sister Yao has been craving for that for a long time. She is in the process of changing her teeth, so she can only eat something soft like this."
The little maid's face suddenly fell, and Grandma Sanjiang became confused again.
She was already used to this situation; she would stop muttering on her own after a while.
Unexpectedly, You Sanjiang muttered for a while before speaking: "By the way, the princess is going to hold a wedding, right?"
"Yes, that's the news that Yao Niang just sent back." said the little maid.
You Sanjiang frowned and thought for a while and said, "No, I have to attend the princess' wedding."
After a pause, he said, "Not just me, you guys have to go too."
The little maid widened her eyes. Is this why we don’t want to go?
"No, Grandma Sanjiang, we can't leave the house without the princess's permission!" she said hastily.
You Sanjiang tilted his head and looked at her, "But I'm retired."
"And I have money to buy plane tickets." She said, "I also have money to buy plane tickets for you."
"Call the princess and tell her that I want to take everyone to her wedding and ask her if it's okay."
How could the little maid dare to call the princess? In the end, the call was made to Yao Niang, who then went to Ge Fu for instructions.
Ge Fu was stunned when she heard this, "If everyone comes, there won't be enough room at home." She didn't mind inviting the servants in the mansion to come and liven up the atmosphere. Although they were servants, in her heart, these people who accompanied her and shared weal and woe with her were equivalent to half of her family.
