Jiang Chuan's face darkened, and he signaled his subordinates with his eyes. He cupped his hands and said, "Father, the princess spoke rudely. I will take her down first."
"Come on, let Princess Jin learn some courtesy, righteousness, and honor, and don't make a fool of herself."
"yes!"
Jiang Chuan's subordinates forcibly took Hui Lian away. This time it was a family banquet and there were not many officials present, basically all of them were the emperor's close ministers. However, it was quite embarrassing to encounter such a person. No one in the entire hall dared to speak, only the sound of Jiang Ye slamming his drink.
Jiang Meizhen originally wanted to say something, but seeing that the atmosphere in the whole hall was not right, she had to suppress the urge to speak, though there was resentment in her eyes.
Ever since her father ascended the throne, she had listened to her husband and wanted to persuade him to find a title and an official position for her husband, but her father only perfunctorily responded to her request. Within a few years, he gave the position to Aying to inherit.
She couldn't even become a princess, let alone find a husband for her husband's son.
She was not close to the child Aying at first, and she thought that the child was her eldest brother's. Later, she learned from Huilian that Aying was just an adopted child.
You are not even of Jiang family blood, so how can you be qualified to inherit this position? Dad is so confused!
After the banquet, Tu Yufan called Jiang Chuan.
"I gave the throne to Aying, but you are also unwilling to accept it?"
"Dad, it's impossible to say that there is no such thing. However, you know what kind of personality your son has. It's your son who has disappointed you. Ah Ying - she is excellent."
Jiang Chuan had a slightly lost expression. There is no one who would not desire that position, especially him as the eldest son of the emperor. He was only one step away from that position, but he knew clearly that he did not have the ability to do so.
If he had the ability to hold on to this position, he would not have given up so easily. However, he was born in Shuigou Village and could not read a single word. He only started to read and write when he was thirty years old. His memory is not as good as before. He is stupid and has not been able to learn anything after studying for so long.
Ah Ying has a quick learning ability and has been handling court affairs with her father over the years. She is very capable and even as a woman she has intimidated court officials. After her father gave her the position, she did not encounter any obstacles.
He has been away from home with his father in the wars these years, and Xiaofu has been neglected, resulting in his naughty behavior. If he were really allowed to become emperor, he would probably become a king who lost his country like the last emperor of the Xie Dynasty.
Tu Yufan patted his shoulder. Huilian thought he was stupid, but it was a pity that his son liked his wife very much and indulged him. At the beginning, a businessman gave a woman to his son without knowing it. After Huilian found out, she rushed over and slapped the businessman. Although the businessman's status was not high, the world had not been unified at that time. It was not a big deal to rashly offend the businessman who came to help.
Jiang Chuanqi came to apologize, and the businessman dared not to be aggressive now that he had a way out. After that, both sides lived in peace. However, Huilian's reputation as a fierce woman spread throughout Licheng.
.........
After Jiang Chuan's death, he confined Huilian to the house and assigned his men to look after Xiaofu, not allowing him to cause trouble outside. Huilian was locked up for nearly half a year. Because the sacrifice was about to take place, Jiang Chuan lifted her house arrest at Huilian's plea.
Unexpectedly, this would cause trouble.
That day, Aying left the palace to attend the burial ceremony at the sacred mountain. On her way back, she was attacked by the remnants of the previous dynasty on the mountain road. Aying was very vigilant, and she and her guards and assassins reacted quickly and quickly captured these people.
