Chapter 1151 The heart of not being a minister
"I shouldn't have come forward for this matter." Su Jin was silent for a moment, "But if the fact is that the Xiang family is domineering, the girl Jun Yao is innocent after all. The life of the concubine's daughter is also a life, but in a powerful family, the life of the concubine's daughter is not worth the money. If the Xiang family holds a grudge for refusing to marry, Jun Yao's situation is obviously not good."
As the saying goes, it is difficult for honest officials to make up for family affairs.
If Jun Yao was really sent by Princess Kang, then the Xiang family could be said to have become Xiang Nan's person.
With a reputation, this is their family affairs. Not to mention Su Jin, a prime minister, even if the regent is in Beijing, it is not easy to interfere in other people's family affairs.
But no matter how I think about this, I feel that there is a hidden inside story.
Su Jin stood quietly for a moment, turned to Chu Ning and looked at him: "Can your highness guess the reason why Xiang Nan wanted to marry the concubine daughter of Prince Kang's mansion?"
A first-rate general married a concubine's daughter... no matter how you think about it, it is unlikely.
"Xiang Nan has accumulated a lot of military achievements over the years, and he is a supporter of the Regent." Chu Ning's tone was faint, "It can also be said that the Xiang family supports the Regent to replace the position of Emperor - you should know what this means."
A word awakens the dreamer.
Su Jin was shocked and his tone was sank: "It means that the Xiang family has no loyalty to the emperor."
By the way, the Xiang family has never had the will of loyalty to the emperor.
Whoever can bring them benefits and greater power will choose to support whom.
In the past few years, Chu Chen and Nan Mohao have created the illusion of disagreement in the court. The court officials all thought that the two emperors had the will to compete for power, so they began to take sides intentionally or unintentionally.
Among them, the Xiang family has made the biggest moves, and its momentum has also developed the most in recent years.
However……
Su Jin thought for a moment, his eyebrows and eyes sank slightly: "I probably understand the Xiang family's intentions."
Xiang Nan is a keen person.
Of course, the generals who are good at strategizing are not very slow.
Nan Mohao and Chu Chen competed in the court for nine years. Since Xiang Nan was sent to the border, the court officials thought that the two princes had a rift and were about to start seizing power. Xiang Nan must have had this idea at the beginning.
However, nine years have passed, and the court is still the same as the original court, and the two emperors are still intact, regardless of Xuan Ze.
It seems to be a confrontation, but there has never been a real conflict.
With Xiang Nan's keen mind, he could not have noticed the reason at all. Maybe he had already felt confident, but the Xiang family had a great success over the years and had a sense of being unjust - whether it was Nan Mohao or Chu Chen, they knew this very well.
The Empress - Her Majesty the Little Empress, who is almost forgotten by the courtiers, is nine years old this year.
Xiang Nan probably already thought of this.
Therefore, if Chu Chen and Nan Mohao competed only to restrain the court officials, and if they really supported the little empress, then when the empress took power, the Xiang family would be afraid that their fate would be worrying.
Therefore, they must take precautions in advance.
What precautions?
Have some relationship with the royal family.
King Kang had no real power, which is a fact that all court officials knew, but he was a prince and a relative of the Jun royal family.
Jun Yao is a humble concubine, which is also a fact, but she is the daughter of King Kang and the blood of the royal family.
At the same time, Jun Yao is also Junni's sister - Junni is the title of Princess Changning, and she has a lot to speak in Prince Kang's Mansion.
