Chapter 53 (1/2)
wang Yun
Feng had been an imperial censor for many years, he had personally not
experienced a lot of turreat waves has hit him directly in the
face, rave and stern face even more icy cold, no one
dared to be within three chi
of him
Xia Ling
Mei vaguely felt this o, if it was several
years ago, o to the rear courts of the large
influential faain
influence unofficially However she hadn’t returned to Beiding City for long,
even if she was a daughter of the Xia fa Yun
Feng’s wife, her words and actions represented the senior imperial censor
official, she didn’t dare to act blindly without thinking, afraid she would
accidentally cause trouble for wang Yun Feng
Every day
noang Yun Feng returned from imperial court he would return to his
study to deal with official docu Mei worry he would
thoroughly placate her
“Matters of
the ies substantially, the complaints have just
started, we can’t just shoot ourselves in the foot in the confusion”
Xia Ling
Mei thought about it: “How about, I go back to my parents’ home and ask daddy?”
Thinking
wang Yun Feng would agree, but he shook his head, again afraid Xia Ling Mei
would act on her own initiative and run to Xia family to ask for help,
deliberating it he then spoke: “The old matriarch of the Xia family has three
sons and two daughters, there are eleven children of direct line of descent in
your generation, around twenty daughters bastards and born of a concubine
Setting them aside, just the eleven of you have eleven in-laws, then the people
of your parents’ generation has five in-laws, in total sixteen in-laws Every
member of these sixteen fae,
each faed network
of the Dayan imperial court The influential families help each other but also
exploit each other, even the ehtly make a move without
authority, he could only slowly plan In these seven years, at least one family
of the influential fa city would reach their end, there has
been entire clans destroyed, executing the whole family unto the third
generation, and there would be a fa into
their place, there are even radually
lose power
The emperor
little by little taking power gradually without the aware, you think the
other influential families would be indifferent? Those clans executed unto the
third generation really aren’t in-laith the Xia fa
complained about, their wife and children did not ask for help from other
influential fa?”
Xia Ling
Mei suddenly shi+vered frohter of an influential
family, naturally she knew the influential family’s way of life, so much so
that every year when she returns home, there were also childhood friends who
have looked for her by every possibleher, to make
her ask wang Yun Feng for a personal favour, give their husband a way to
survive
wang Yun
Feng is an imperial censor, moreover he is a blade in the emperor’s hand Over
these years, to support the splendid path for the wang fa
had to unconditionally go by the est the influential
faeneration, how many was due to the emperor’s
provocation, again how ?
“If every
in-laws ask the Xia family for help, can the Xia family help them all? Could
every influential fae
of their position, accepted bribes, illegal practices, disregard human life? An
influential family has so many children, can all of them be honourable,
upright, uards even the private
soldiers in their hands, all never abused their position and acted
tyrannically? If there isn’t, ould I have been able to gain information
that can be used against them, over several hundred crimes to take to court and
destroy families? These sort of families, how can the Xia family help, and in
ay? The daughters of the Xia family, one has become the empress, one is
the Zhao princess, each of the other children are all tied to prestigious
families, If they had a problem and went to the Xia family for help, in the end
would they be asking for glory and splendour or bring about disaster for the
Xia family?
You think
the empress to this day can rule the chambers of imperial concubines, based
completely because of the emperor’s favour?
It’s
because the empress never involved herself in the politics of the court, and
because of the Xia family’s power towards the emperor has always been
differential, putting their own safety before matters of principle When the
eainst a family, the Xia family will only look on
without lifting a finger, and not stand off against the emperor because of
in-laws Coenuinely lap
up the blood fro”
Xia Ling
Mei rigidly rolled her eyes: “You’re saying, this time, the emperor is prepared
to behead the wang family?”
“It’s the
other influential fa to be a taciturn sheep anymore,
they want to spiritedly rebel against the emperor with a irreconcilable
adversaries To bear the brunt, naturally it’s me”
“Then you…”
“I’m
waiting for the emperor’s decision” The emperor pushed down the memorial, he
was ready to throang Yun Feng to feed the numerous carnivorous influential
fa peace between the imperial power and the
influential families, nevertheless…
wang Yun
Feng held Xia Ling Mei’s hand, his thu the hollow of her palm,
pacifying her: “Don’t worry, I’m your husband, naturally I can protect your
safety”
Safety, and
not riches and glory?
Xia Ling
Mei caught the gap in the wang Yun Feng’s thinking It wasn’t hard for her to
ione to the Gu fa,
would he still stubbornly throw his own body into the fire, feeling pleased
with the joy of life and death?
Is it, from
a very long ti had decided to follow a solitary path and
live out his lifetime? That’s why he was happy to be a blade in the emperor’s
hand, each time without hesitation stab into the influential families’ hearts,
and not concerned whether he lives or dies
Under what
state of ain push himself down the path of
death?
She didn’t
want to ask, she only tightly grabbed his sleeve, turning her gaze at the
glaring sunlight coh the
It was
already October, as the sun still so intense
Two days
passed, Xia Ling Mei took advantage of the ti was at court,
entering the palace
Just by
chance, the imperial concubines of the palace had just come to pay their
respects to the e
