Chapter 275 Fighting with Mother-in-law is Boring
Yun Ting was listening at the side, thinking in frustration that he couldn't even compare to Daya, let alone the Fifth Young Master.
He has a lot to learn from this open-minded, decent and comprehensive person.
He was slow in many things, but today he understood Daya's approach.
——Daya has seen through the root of the inner house struggle and is taking action directly from the source.
What’s the point of fighting in the inner house?
To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader.
The ones who really have the final say are men.
Is your mother-in-law difficult to serve?
But the mother-in-law has to listen to the father-in-law.
With the appreciation and support of my father-in-law, even if my mother-in-law has objections, she will be cautious.
Daya immediately jumped out of the quarrel in the backyard and talked directly to her father-in-law.
He had reasons and evidence, and spoke with both logic and emotion, and he easily passed the test of Minister Jiang.
Yun Ting thought that in some aspects, he could even take Daya as his master.
"Yes, it's because of concern that one becomes confused. Please be more tolerant." Minister Jiang said.
"You're too kind." Daya said, "As a family, we should stick together through thick and thin."
Minister Jiang looked at Daya with eyes full of approval.
His son had good vision. He waited until he was in his twenties to get married and picked the best daughter-in-law.
This is probably what it means when good food is never too late.
"There is one more thing that requires your permission." Daya continued.
"you say."
"I want to accompany Jiang Xuan during the day," Daya said. "I know this is against etiquette. But if I accompany him and talk, maybe it can arouse his will to live more. Of course, etiquette cannot be abolished. However, I am just a shallow woman. To me, Jiang Xuan is my future husband, my country and the world. If I accompany him, it can be regarded as a mission in a time of crisis, so please allow me to do so. I can keep a low profile and will never bring shame to the Jiang family."
Minister Jiang turned his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
If Daya's previous words made him see that she knew how to advance and retreat and made decent decisions, then these words made him see Daya's deep affection.
She would rather sacrifice her own reputation to stay with her son. How could Minister Jiang not respect and pity her?
"Good child, there's no need to keep a low profile. You are my Jiang family's child!" Minister Jiang said, "If Jiang Xuan is lucky enough to escape the disaster, you two can get married. If he doesn't have that blessing, I will adopt you as my adopted daughter. You take care of your brother, and no one can say anything."
Daya lowered her head and cried.
Jiang Xuan, I did it.
Wait for me to accompany you.
With the silent help of Teng Wenfu, Jiang Quan's memorial was quickly presented to the emperor.
"Jiang Quan? It's rare for him to submit a memorial to me."
The emperor opened the memorial, read it quickly, and shook his head.
"This memorial should have been written by Jiang Yi. I remember her handwriting. When her father and brother were in trouble, she wrote a petition to express her grievances—" The emperor sighed, "Unfortunately, Jiang Yi is a woman, otherwise I would have allowed her to carry on her father and brother's legacy."
Teng Wenfu thought, isn't Xiao Yan important?
Does it matter who wrote this post?
You didn't read the content at all.
"By the way, Teng Wenfu, is Jiang Yi married?"
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, there shouldn't be any."
"It's a difficult problem." The emperor shook his head. "If she had followed Xiao Yan before—well, then there would be no need to abandon my mother. Oh, and that unlucky Xiao Yan, how can he be involved in everything?"
Teng Wenfu thought to himself, you finally remembered this unlucky guy, he is still imprisoned in the imperial prison.
"Is there any news from Lu Jin?"
"Your Majesty, not yet. Commander Lu is very busy, so it's understandable that he's a little slow."
The emperor glanced at Teng Wenfu and said, "Why do you hold a grudge so tightly? You take advantage of every opportunity you have to offend him. Didn't he just kick you when he was protecting the emperor?"
The emperor laughed as he spoke.
Teng Wenfu feels wronged!
"Your Majesty, I suspect he's seeking revenge. If he really did kick me, I'd be grateful to him for blocking your attack. But that day, besides the assassin, the only one injured was my waist. Do you think he did it on purpose?"
The emperor laughed out loud.
He knew the grudge between these two people.
However, the emperor found this kind of feud quite funny. It was better than fighting for power and profit and oppressing each other.
"Go and convey my order. Ask him to first interrogate those who make firecrackers and fireworks. If there are no obvious problems, release them first." The emperor said, "You can seal off the place where they make fireworks. Qi Niang must be worried these days. But -"
The Emperor suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Teng Wenfu, what do you think Jiang Yi meant by submitting this memorial? Does she still want to reconcile with Xiao Yan?"
Even if it is impossible.
"That shouldn't be the case," Teng Wenfu said quickly. "Miss Jiang and Qi Niang have a good relationship. Jiang Quan, on the other hand, wanted to join the Black Armor Army but couldn't. He was thinking of becoming Xiao Yan's apprentice and taking private lessons, waiting to take the exam again this year."
"I see, that's the best. I like both Qi Niang and Jiang Yi, and I don't want them to get into any jealousy. I'll have to look into Jiang Yi's marriage later, and I have to help her father look after her."
"Your Majesty has to worry about every little thing," Teng Wenfu said. "You are really worried to death."
"This is nothing. These children make me feel at ease. What I am really worried about are these." The emperor pointed to the mountain of memorials on the desk.
There was also the assassination attempt on the Lantern Festival, which weighed heavily on the emperor's mind.
Teng Wenfu went out and told someone to pass the order to Lu Jin, then came back quickly and told the eunuch to add charcoal to the brazier.
The emperor laughed and said, "I thought you were going to go there in person to scare Lu Jin and avenge that kick!"
"I won't argue with him." Teng Wenfu replaced the emperor's cup of hot tea and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please take a rest. I have something to tell you to entertain you."
"Come on, tell me about it."
Teng Wenfu then told him that Lu Qiniang had come to him with nine thousand taels of silver as a gift.
The emperor really couldn't stop laughing.
"After all the hard work, I thought she had earned so much money, but in the end, all she had left was this little, and she even had to pay it all out."
"Your Majesty, tell me, is she really stupid or is she just pretending to be stupid?"
"Whether she is really stupid or just pretending to be stupid, she has achieved her goal anyway. Otherwise, why would this memorial reach my desk so soon?" the emperor said meaningfully.
Teng Wenfu pretended to be terrified and said, "Your Majesty, I swear to God, I abandoned my mother without paying a penny, and I even compensated her with a pot of good tea worth half an ounce of silver."
The emperor laughed heartily. "You see, this trick works well for you. It gets the job done without spending any money. Who's more stupid, her or you?"
Teng Wenfu said: "Great wisdom appears foolish. This is called great wisdom appears foolish. I will learn from this in the future."
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Some things need to be clarified with the emperor.
Otherwise, there may be hidden dangers in the future.
