Jiang Hao didn't say anything, and neither did the grandparents or grandchildren. They just stared at Jiang Hao with nervousness in their eyes, fearing that Jiang Hao would not agree.

Jiang Hao finished his tea, looked up at Jiang Hong and pointed.

Jiang Hong came back to his senses and quickly refilled her tea, staring at her again.

"You don't have to look at me like that."

Jiang Hao smiled lightly, calmly: "May I ask you, old man, how do you know the future?"

The implication is, how do you know whether it is the Crown Prince or the Seventh Prince who will sit on the throne? Otherwise, how could you ask for her name to come down.

Jiang Ming had already taken this step, so he didn't hide it anymore. After analyzing the current situation with Jiang Hao, he chuckled and said, "I've heard a little about what's going on in the palace. So, I'm begging the county lady to protect the Jiang family for your mother's sake."

Jiang Hao shook his head: "Maybe I will disappoint the old man."

The faces of Jiang Ming and his grandson froze at the same time, and disappointment flashed across their faces, but they were not like Jiang Huaili, who would get angry or curse when they failed to get what they wanted. They just didn't say anything.

But because of this, Jiang Hao said: "Instead of living in fear, it is better to... plan early."

Aren’t they just “planning early”?

Jiang Ming was old but still confused. He poured tea for Jiang Hao himself and waited for her to say next.

"Since the Third Prince is doomed, the several masters in the Jiang Mansion may not be able to support the real master. They are afraid that the Jiang family will be liquidated. It is better to leave the capital while the old man is still here."

"Leaving Beijing with your whole family?"

Jiang Hong was extremely shocked: "But, our Jiang family has already taken root in Beijing..."

If the whole family leaves Beijing, all the hard work of several generations of ancestors will be lost.

But Jiang Ming understood what Jiang Hao meant, and he also felt that Jiang Hao was really considering them instead of just being perfunctory.

"What the county lady meant is that as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."

Jiang Ming said this slowly, but his heart was full of sighs - the future of the Jiang family was ultimately ruined in his hands.

"exactly."

Seeing that Jiang Ming understood what he meant, Jiang Hao nodded in satisfaction: "Whether it is the emperor or the new emperor in the future, the Jiang family has left the capital, and there are no more children in the court who are successful in official careers. They are already useless. And who they supported in the past, what does it matter?"

"The county lady is indeed very thoughtful. I will learn from your advice."

Jiang Ming stood up and bowed to Jiang Hao, expressing his sincere admiration.

"You don't have to do this, old man. It's not that you can't think of it, but you haven't let it go completely. If you have made a choice now, go back to the mansion and persuade him."

Jiang Hao also stood up, thought for a moment, and added, "The sooner the better."

Jiang Ming and Jiang Hong were stunned again.

"Farewell."

Sitting on the carriage, Jiang Ming was filled with emotion again. He then asked the driver to return home immediately and summon his rebellious son to the study, as he had something important to announce.

Jiang Hao stood by the window and watched the Jiang family's carriage slowly drive away. She then shook her head gently.

Hopefully, Jiang Ming can successfully persuade his sons, who have lofty ambitions but fragile lives, to resign from their posts and return home.

If you are unwilling to give up high positions and generous salaries, the final result will be difficult to escape death.

"Miss, I just received news that Jiang Cheng had a conflict with someone over a woman in Yihonglou and was stabbed twice."

Yueying came in and whispered in Jiang Hao's ear.

"Dead yet?"

Jiang Hao asked after being slightly surprised.

"It's more bad than good."
