"Father has calculated everything, but in the end he is paving the way for the child!" Jiang Yashuang looked at the relief in his eyes, but slowly knelt down, "The child still talks coldly to the father, which is really ungrateful! But, the child is still If you want a kid to step on my starlings and get to the top, I can’t do it!”
... Jiang Tianchi was right. From the very beginning, Jiang Yashuang knew that no matter how much his father doted on his eldest son in front of others, his real heir must be himself!
Because Jiang Tianchi's preference for his eldest son began when he returned to Beijing to express his condolences to the Marquis of Ji Bei.
But the guidance and school examination for the youngest son began when Jiang Yashuang was six years old.
For more than ten years, the Ou family brothers and sisters traveled between northern Xinjiang and the capital dozens of times, acting as exclusive messengers between father and son.
During those ten years, Jiangyadan was never mentioned once in the letters and oral messages carried by the Ou family brothers and sisters!
At first Jiang Yashuang thought that her father was disappointed in his brother by doing this.
It wasn't until I guessed that my brother's desolation was caused by my father that I suddenly realized - that was not disappointment, but guilt and guilt! He deliberately avoided mentioning this eldest son every time he wrote. Only in those public family letters, in order not to arouse suspicion, he had to mention it!
Even after the Great Qin Emperor Rui, Jiang Tianchi revealed his debt to his eldest son to King Yongyi and others, and pretended that he had to make amends, he still failed to deceive his younger son.
Jiang Yashuang only used that appointment to test his father's sincerity: if Jiang Tianchi was really determined to let his eldest son succeed him, he should agree to Jiang Yashuang's appointment or transfer!
Why are you afraid that the younger son will be difficult to control if he is away from you? Although you don't want the younger son to ascend the throne, you want him to assist the elder brother well, so you don't want the brothers to be too alienated... These are actually cover-ups!
Because why can Jiang Yashuang still be a popular candidate to compete for the grandson - now the prince - even after his father clearly expressed his support for Jiang Yadan
The biggest reason is not that Jiang Yadan is too scumbag, nor that he is talented, but that he was established by Emperor Zhaode as the future helmsman of the family at a young age, and he was carefully cultivated along the way!
The meaning of careful cultivation is not just that he has the favor of Emperor Zhaode - on the road of competition for successors, favor and favoritism are all external forces in the final analysis, and the most important thing is his own strength - the point is that he is a close candidate for the family. Heirs have the advantage of being guided by their elders to form their own team since they were young!
Obi City is a typical representative.
Including later Qiu Jinglan, Qiu Feng, Ling Zui and others.
Let’s just say that that time when Qiu Jinglan still used the pseudonym Ruan Qingyan, she stopped Jiang Yashuang in the middle of the night to send Qiu Yilan back to her room, and almost killed Jiang Yadan in anger—even though the place where they did it was a remote corner of the Xihe Palace. But across the wall is the Jiang Family Courtyard. Those fierce soldiers who retreated from the battlefield in Northern Xinjiang don't even know that their own young master climbed the wall in the middle of the night with a princess in his arms? !
Even if you don't know what's going on and don't bother you, would you be stupid enough not to follow him just in case? !
If no one was watching in secret, how could Queen Tao get the report the next day when she came together
Of course, Empress Tao decided to hide it from her grandson at the time, so not many people know about it until now - but maybe Emperor Zhaode didn't know
Because Mrs. Han, her step-sister-in-law, was a very unqualified stepmother, Emperor Zhaode was always wary of his step-wife. This led to Empress Tao always being a little cautious in front of her first wife and legitimate son. The status between mother and son was simply Somewhat upside down. Even after she became the mother of a queen, she would still be like this for a long time!
Under such circumstances, even though Emperor Zhaode placed Jiang Yashuang in front of his step-wife to raise him, how could he not guard against his step-wife
Empress Tao wanted to find a sister-in-law for her grandniece who had no background and was easy to bully. Why did Emperor Zhaode acquiesce to her approach? It's just that the Jiang family no longer needs to marry into a famous family, but young and talented people like Qiu Jinglan and Qiu Feng have the potential to serve as Jiang Yashuang's arms, and they are more worthy of Emperor Zhaode's attention!
Although their exchange that night was not harmonious, from the perspective of Emperor Zhaode's identity and experience, how big of a deal was it for a young man who didn't know each other without fighting, and neither one was dead nor the other was crippled
Besides, Princess Ningyi was hugged by her grandson, and it was still midnight. Qiu Jinglan was angry again. After calming down after a fight, she had to watch her sister marry into the Jiang family, and she worked hard for the Jiang family because she felt sorry for her sister. ? After such calculation, Emperor Zhaode did not feel that his family suffered any loss.
Here, Emperor Zhaode did not directly instruct his grandson, but he pretended to be confused in private and opened the door, which was equivalent to helping Jiang Yashuang make friends with useful people.
At that time, according to Emperor Zhaode's plan, Jiang Yashuang's focus was still on obtaining fame, and forming his own team was not his main job, but just incidental.
When he entered the Hanlin Academy and officially became an official, his focus was on expanding his power. Although Emperor Zhaode did not give him much money or give it to others-but at this time, Emperor Zhaode's favor was the best card. , Tang Sipeng, Dongfang Chou, Xun Yuxi, etc., which one of these people didn't take advantage of the fact that Jiang Yashuang was the most proud grandson of the Jiang family and defected to her
So even if Jiang Tianchi openly stated that he wants to pass the throne to his eldest son in the future, Jiang Yashuang still has the power to fight - if he doesn't fight, those who invest in him will fight too!
Jiang Yadan was ordered to go south to appease the people, but he was assassinated. Wasn't it the work of Tang Sipeng and Lu He? !
These talents are the biggest factor that threatens Jiang Yashuang's path to becoming the crown prince - they are Jiang Yashuang's wings!
So if Jiang Tianchi really doesn't want his younger son to take over, the first thing he should do is find an excuse to send Jiang Yashuang away from the center!
Don't even do anything else - there may be some people in Jiang Yashuang's wings who are willing to continue to follow him, but there are definitely some who will leave because they are discouraged, or even switch to Jiang Yadan's sect!
With all the feathers and wings gone, it will be impossible to fly. This is the real trick to stop Jiang Yashuang from becoming the emperor!
As for Jiang Yashuang being released from his father's sight after being released, he may have lost some of his subordinates, and gathered a group of people when he was released. You can refer to the current King Lu who was sent to Lu Di along with the Queen Mother Rui. Now that he is gone, who can say that he is out of Jiang's sight? !
After being released, two more supervisors were sent out, forcing Jiang Yashuang to not be able to interact with others openly at all. It would be good if he didn't worry about getting sick, but he still wanted to build a force? Just wait patiently!
When his father passed away and his brother ascended the throne, Jiang Yadan summoned his brother back to the capital to comfort him and send some errands. This not only proved the new monarch's excellent character of loving his brothers, but also made Jiang Yashuang owe the emperor in front of the world. My brother has given me the gift of revenge. From now on, if I don’t work for Jiang Yadan, I will be scolded!
Before the old emperor was about to die, he always liked to trick a few capable ministers, and then let the new emperor show mercy after he came to power. This was an old trick throughout the ages - since Jiang Tianchi could think of no suitable reason to punish Conglong's meritorious officials, then he did it If a suitable reason comes out, will you think of changing this idea: The new emperor is not kind to his ministers, so why not create an environment of kindness? !
Especially how old is Jiang Yashuang? Fang Qiu had just reprimanded Fang Qiu, and he had been spoiled by his grandfather. He wanted him to be willing to be his brother's servant, instead of leaving him to live in the cold for a few years, to give him enough face, to let him fully appreciate the warmth and coldness of human nature, and to completely wear off his Eagerness and arrogance...how is that possible? ! Even if he personally promised it, it might not be true, okay
—This is the serious route for Jiang Yadan to succeed to the throne!
So when Jiang Yashuang mentioned that he wanted to become an official, his parents immediately rejected him without saying anything. They immediately gave him Xue Chang's affairs to handle, for fear that he would become stubborn and let him go. He knew immediately that his father had given various explicit hints that he wanted to immediately Brother Jiang Yadan is just a cover!
Moreover, the mother knew clearly but still agreed with the father. So among the three brothers, the one the father really wanted to marry could be the concubine Jiang Yazhu Bucheng? !
It can only be Jiang Yashuang herself!
Now that he knows the truth, using his IQ and extrapolating back, he has guessed the whole thing to a close conclusion!
Therefore, during the dispute between the Taisun and the Sun, he was restrained and seemed indecisive and very unhappy.
What can be done
My brother, who was kept in the dark, was so humble that I didn’t want to argue with him from the bottom of my heart!
His biological father, who seems to dislike him at every turn, is strategizing and frequently showing off his acting skills. In the final analysis, he is paving the way for him!
Even the biological mother of the two brothers obeyed her biological father and chose him as the final beneficiary!
With Jiang Yashuang's personality, even if he didn't know the truth, he wouldn't be able to trick his brother.
Now that he knows these truths, how could he attack his brother again? !
Persuading Jiang Yadan to withdraw from the competition and asking his biological father to stop being so deceptive was his best choice.
It's a pity that Jiang Tianchi rejected this proposal.
He was determined to create a whirlpool of contention between the two legitimate sons and deceive those heroes who could not start with the power of Conglong, so as to lay a good foundation for the rule of the young Great Qin!
In order to deceive everyone, he not only told King Yongyi and others in private about the bullying and humiliation he had suffered from his brothers since childhood, so much so that he had to sacrifice his innocent eldest son to protect his future. His wife's legitimate son, the young Jiang Jingkun, was brought into the East Palace to raise personally - he had already paid the price of digging the hole, but how could he stop before everyone jumped into the hole? !
How to give up willingly? !
Jiang Tianchi confessed the whole story to his son here tonight, which did not mean that he planned to close the net.
It's just a secret that has been stored in my heart for too long, and it needs to be talked out after all.
Especially the people involved in this secret, it is a personal pain for Jiang Tianchi - even though he personally said that Emperor Zhaode's status in his heart is not as good as that of Xue Chang, a person with no blood relationship but capable enough, but The death of Emperor Zhaode had a shock to his state of mind after all!
So he summoned Jiang Yashuang and came to the deserted ruins of Ganquan Palace. No one was allowed to come near. Only the father and son could talk about their inner feelings and talk about the past.
He exposed his weakness, but that doesn't mean he is really weak.
At this moment, looking at the young son who was kneeling at his feet and begging, Jiang Tianchi's expression of tenderness and tenderness just a moment ago began to fade away little by little.
In just a few breaths, he had regained the majesty that a human king should have, and he claimed to have returned to the exclusive possession of the Ninth Five Supreme Being: "I know you can't do it!"
He said coldly, "I don't need you to do it - it's because you have seen through the truth yourself, otherwise I would have no intention of letting you know!"
After saying this, he was no longer interested in talking, turned around and waved his sleeves, "Get up, it's almost dawn, you should go back to watch your grandfather's funeral - for me, he is not a good father, just like I am for you He is not a good father like Dan'er, but he has really done his best for your grandson! Now that he is on his last journey, you shouldn't leave him for too long!"
The sky was turning white, and the long night had passed without knowing it. Jiang Yashuang looked at the bright color in the east in despair. After a long time, she stood up with Jiang Shan's hand that came up cautiously to support her: "Go back to the mourning hall!"
