I fought back after reselling my engagement

Su Jingzhai served as an official throughout his life. He was the most outstanding talent among his peers and the only first-rank official in the Su family who had served in the court so far.

"The imperial court wants to eliminate the trouble caused by the aristocratic families. Jiangnan has always been prosperous. If my grandfather wants to protect the safety of the Su family in the capital, you must not take any action, let alone interfere in this matter."

Su Jingzhai's mind suddenly changed, "I... have been targeted by the Ministry of Public Security?"

Zhen Su did not answer, but looked around. Princess Changle came to Hunan Province with great fanfare, saying that she was attending her friend's coming-of-age ceremony, and also said that the thing was stolen, but her behavior after arriving was not like that at all.

In the past, Zhen Su did not understand, but recently there were too many new faces in Yueyang Mansion. He saw the spring breeze and spring rain walking on the road. Not to mention the sword and zither servants around Princess Changle, there were also several martial arts masters around her. Thinking about it carefully, on the day of touring Yueyang Tower, he found that there were quite a few martial arts masters.

Zhen Su has come into contact with more things, and she is no longer as innocent as before. With a modern perspective, she has been studying the Phoenix Card and collecting information and clues about her maternal grandfather. She also collected a lot of information about the Su family, the direct branch of the family, because she loves Su Mo. The more she knows, the more disappointed she becomes.

She said "Love is one thing, marriage is another" because she knew too much.

"Grandfather, the prince was about to seize power. The emperor ordered you to take up the post of governor of Hunan Province. But did he want to protect you from the conflict?"

When Zhen Su asked this question, Su Jingzhai could no longer suppress his surprise. Only they, father and son, knew about this matter, and how did Zhen Su guess it?

Su Jingzhai asked: "What did you know?"

Zhen Su raised his chin slightly, "Even though I have saved His Royal Highness the grandson of Prince Gong and Princess Shouning in the capital, the gift sent by the royal family for my coming of age this time is too heavy."

In her previous life, Princess Fanghua married far away in Shu Province, and her husband was a member of the royal family of Da Qi, a descendant of the twelfth son of Emperor Taizu. Although he had no title, he was still a royal family after all.

Emperor Dezhi and Prince Gong believed in keeping wealth within the family. This marriage was arranged by Emperor Dezhi in the previous life, and in this life, Princess Fanghua has an additional fiefdom, so it will not be given to outsiders.

There must be something here that she doesn't know.

The Phoenix Card is usually held in the hands of members of the royal family. Why did the emperor let Princess Changle hand the box to her personally? Was he telling her that in this life, she had no other possibility except marrying the prince?

Why did Emperor Dezhi take a fancy to her?

Zhen Su asked back, "Grandfather, does the emperor think too highly of me?"

Su Jingzhai hurriedly replied: "However, the emperor has a loving and caring heart towards you."

"Love..." Zhen Su murmured.

"It's kindness!" Su Jingzhai corrected.

Zhen Su thought that Ci'ai was treating her like a daughter-in-law. In the feudal dynasty, if a county lady or princess was given the title, her marriage was not up to her. She really wanted to marry her to a certain prince. "General Lu sent a message saying that the emperor has verbally ordered that I will not agree to my marriage. Is this true?"

Su Jingzhai said: "The emperor's words are as good as gold, and they are never false."

This is a bit strange.

She was very sure that she had never seen the emperor in her life, so how could he make such a promise to her?

"The emperor... is a wise ruler!" Zhen Su blurted out. He was too respectful and too kind to her. She was moved.

Su Jingzhai didn't look at Zhen Su, thinking she was just a child. But because the royal reward was so generous, she became suspicious and felt it was too abnormal.

Su Jingzhai didn't know that Emperor Dezhi had awarded the Phoenix Plate to Zhen Su. If he knew, he would be even more surprised.

The more Zhen Su knew about the affairs of the Supervisory Office, the more uneasy he became. The Phoenix Card had too much power, and only one of the Dragon and Phoenix Cards would come into the world. "When the Phoenix Messenger appears, the Dragon Messenger hides; when the Dragon Messenger appears, the Phoenix Messenger hides." There would never be a situation where both the Dragon Messenger and the Phoenix Messenger appeared, and when only one appeared, the Phoenix Messenger would be the person with the highest status in the Supervisory Office.

Below the emperor, above everyone else.

This is just like the position of a powerful prime minister, and at the same time, he can monitor the powerful prime minister. The one who holds the Phoenix Card actually has the power to execute first and report later.

This has become an imperial envoy!

The Phoenix card she holds is simply an imperial sword!

She has too much power and has been feeling a little proud lately.

The emperor actually bestowed such a phoenix plaque on a fifteen-year-old child. Fortunately, the combined age of her three lives was fifty or sixty years old, so ordinary people would really be worried.

"Grandfather, you issued an order to exempt Seventh Sister from giving up her name card and exempting her from going to Jiangnan."

Su Jingzhai was very confused. He knew of the past examples of officials with the surname Su who had committed crimes, and even the old stories of Emperors Taizu and Gaozu. He didn't even know these things, but how did his granddaughter know them? When he heard her talk about them in such detail, it didn't seem like she was making it up.

"Somebody come!"

The old servant outside responded.

Su Jingzhai said, "Tell the Third Master and Third Madam that the Seventh Miss does not have to give up her Mingzhu Society name card and will not go to Jiangnan anymore."

"Old slave, please send someone to pass the message." The old servant responded and woke up the errand boy to deliver the message.

Su Jingzhai sighed, "What should we do with the seventh girl now? If your grandmother were here, she would teach you, but your aunt is really incapable of teaching her daughter well."

When Su Shao fell in love with Cui, Su Jingzhai and Xiao Xie disagreed. They disliked Cui because she came from a poor family and had a petty attitude.

Although the Hedong Xie family is now in decline, they were once a well-known aristocratic family in the previous dynasty, and they have their own methods and experiences in educating their children.

"Seventh sister has many faults: she loves to take advantage of others and is short-sighted, but she is only an eleven-year-old child. As long as the elders teach her carefully and analyze the pros and cons, she is not stupid and can always change for the better. Grandfather has a lot of things to do, but we still have uncle, Wu Lang and me. Let uncle and Wu Lang teach Seventh sister, right?

Why not entrust your seventh sister to your aunt instead of an outsider? Su Dalang was originally the eldest son of a concubine, but Sanlang is your uncle's eldest son. If your grandfather wrote to your uncle and asked him to send Sanlang to Yueyang to ask for your guidance, your uncle would have no problem accepting it. "

Su Erlang came to Yueyang Prefecture, and Su Qinnan joined the Mingzhu Society.

The fate of the descendants of the two families is tied together. Even if Su Gang and his wife have selfish motives, for the sake of their only legitimate son, Madam Su will certainly do her best to teach and take care of Su Qinnan.

"Second uncle's Erlang and Silang are both legitimate sons. Choose the one with better talent to come to Yueyang Mansion. Grandfather will give him some guidance when he has time. He also has his younger uncle to teach him about academic matters."

Su Jingzhai was very disappointed with his eldest son, second son and eldest daughter. In the years after Su Wan's death, whenever he thought of Su Wan, he was unwilling to mention these three children.

"Your eldest and second uncles ignored you after I came to Yueyang Prefecture. When you lived in Su Mansion, your two aunts were also indifferent to you. But now, you are speaking well of them."

"We are originally a family, how can we be so fussy? My eldest and second uncles are distant from my grandfather, but what have the second, third and fourth uncles done wrong? If the three sons of my youngest uncle are all capable, and the grandchildren of the first and second wives are all incompetent, wouldn't it mean that my grandfather is really partial? It's not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality. Although it is the responsibility of parents to educate their children, it's the same whether you let one sheep go or a flock of sheep..."
