Chapter 214 Su Xue has a crush on someone
In fact, the old marquis really wanted the Su family to be pardoned and recalled to Beijing. Even if the title was not restored, as long as the Su family's crimes were pardoned, the descendants of the Su family could pursue official careers as usual in the future.
It’s not that ordinary people can’t live their lives, but that without some power in their hands, they can’t protect themselves.
The Su family is passed down not for one or two generations, but for generations to come. Therefore, if the Su family wants to continue for a long time, it must have power and strength.
However, the Su family is a criminal family and will never be able to pursue a career in officialdom.
The inheritance may have been broken in any generation.
He cannot let down the generations of the Su family, and the Su family cannot fall into decline in his hands.
Su Yue saw what the old marquis was thinking, stood up, and comforted him, saying, "Grandfather, don't worry. The Su family will be vindicated one day."
The old marquis looked up at Su Yue and said with a wry smile, "I hope so."
Things are unpredictable, and no one can guarantee that Murong Li can get that position.
But the old marquis couldn't resist Su Yue's kindness. Knowing that she was a good child, he immediately returned to his usual self, stroked his beard, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to make you laugh at me. These are things that your father should worry about. Why is your grandfather worrying about this? You'd better eat well and live a few more years."
Su Yue pursed her lips: "Grandfather, I hope you live a long life. Grandfather is right, especially my eldest brother. The Su family still needs him to take care of it. By the way, Grandfather, how will my eldest brother's marriage be handled?"
Speaking of Su Qiwen's marriage, the old marquis was very pleased. He used to think that the Su family was a family of criminals, and it would be difficult for their descendants to get good marriages. He didn't expect that he could marry his former colleague.
Among the "criminal ministers" under this emperor's system, none are truly culprits; they are all loyal ministers. Only the current emperor considers them treacherous ministers who have blocked his power.
The old marquis smiled and said, "It's settled. Since you left, your parents and your eldest brother have gone to Yunwu Village. The wedding date is set for the seventh day of the seventh month of this year."
"Oh, that's great." Su Yue said happily.
The old marquis also nodded: "Then Miss Yue, go to your parents and ask them to tell you the details. Grandfather will also talk to Li kid."
"Oh, that's good. Then come back later, granddaughter."
Su Yue understood that they had something to say. She glanced at Murong Li, went to visit the old lady first, and then went to the eldest lady's yard.
As soon as Su Yue left, the old marquis glanced at Murong Li, who still had his eyes fixed on him, and said sternly, "People have come from the capital. Something serious must have happened that required you to return. This proves that in the emperor's heart, you are qualified to be the crown prince.
After you go back, you must keep calm and don't act rashly. At the same time, you must remember that no matter how well an emperor has done in which dynasty, and how much welfare he has brought to the people, the people will not support an emperor who has usurped the throne by unfair means.
Even if they like him, it is only temporary. If one day the emperor does not follow the people's wishes, he will definitely be criticized, and it may even bring endless troubles, and in serious cases, it may even lead to the destruction of the country.
This is not uncommon. The former royal family of Xifeng Kingdom was destroyed in this way.
So I hope you can seize that position through legitimate means, not for anything else, but for the sake of those who follow you.
Of course, my Su family still needs to turn things around, but I can assure you that the Su family has no ambitions. We only want the Su family to be able to continue from generation to generation, and the Su family will always be your backing."
The old marquis said this because he knew that Murong Li had lost his previous memories and was afraid that he would want to take the throne regardless of the consequences.
At the same time, the Su family's position was also made clear. Once Murong Li came to power, the Su family would become the father-in-law of the emperor.
Every dynasty is afraid of the monopoly of power by external relatives.
The old marquis is very confident in Yue's ability. Not to mention the position of queen, even if she wants to become emperor, there will be no problem.
But considering Yue's feelings for Murong Li, she can only be the queen.
After hearing what the old marquis said, Murong Li nodded very solemnly. He understood what the old marquis meant, but he didn't care. Even if Yue'er really wanted to be the queen in the future, he would offer her his services with both hands.
"I've taken note of what my grandfather said."
Murong Li didn't say much. Before the dust settled, no matter how many promises he made, they would be useless. He liked tangible things and would not make empty promises to others.
When he really gets that position, he will have the final say on what he wants.
Here, Murong Li and the old marquis were chatting freely, and over there, Su Yue had a private chat with the eldest lady, and then went to the second house of the Su family to see Su Xue. It had been a long time since he saw that girl, and after a while, the girl would complain again that he didn't love her.
Su Xue was surprised to see Su Yue coming. She ran to hug Su Yue in delight and asked, "Big sister, how come you have time to come here?"
Su Yue poked her forehead and smiled: "Why, big sister can't come?"
"How could that be? Xue'er wishes big sister would come every day. Big sister, is your brother-in-law okay?" Su Xue asked.
When she learned that Murong Li was in trouble, she felt sad for Su Yue.
"He's fine now, as lively as before. Where are my uncle and aunt? Aren't they at home?"
Su Xue blushed and said shyly: "Aunt Wang's house next door has a nephew, and my parents said they would go and see him."
"Oh, you want to get married."
Su Yue joked and went to Su Xue's boudoir with her. As soon as they sat down, Xiao Qing served them tea.
Xiaoqing hadn't seen Caixia for a long time, and the two girls went downstairs and chattered non-stop.
Su Xue blushed at Su Yue's teasing. After the maid left, she said coquettishly, "Big sister is teasing Xue'er again. I'm going to be a marriageable girl next year. My parents said I should look at a few more families first and then choose a good one."
"Xue'er really wants to get married here?"
If the Su family had not been exiled here, in the capital, as the second daughter of the Marquis of Anding, Su Xue would have married a wealthy and well-matched man. But now she has to marry a commoner. Is Su Xue willing to do that?
Su Xue's expression darkened, and she said helplessly, "Big sister, will the Su family ever see a comeback?"
She has accepted her fate, what else can she do?
Su Yue pursed her lips: "Sister Xue'er, can you trust Big Sister?"
Su Xue nodded: "Xue'er of course believes big sister."
"Then tell my uncle and auntie to stop visiting for the time being. Maybe things will turn around."
Su Xue stared at Su Yue with wide eyes in surprise: "Big sister, Xue'er believes you. Xue'er is not willing to stay here for the rest of her life. There is no one Xue'er likes here."
Su Yue patted her hands and said, "That's good. If the day ever comes when our Su family returns to Beijing, I will definitely make sure that your wish comes true and you marry the man of your dreams."
Su Xue blushed again, lowered her head and nodded gently.
