So what if I traveled through time? I'll continue to roll in another place
Chapter 165 Lu Jiayan's Information
"Shan'er, what else do you know?" Seeing her so confident, Xiao Zheng knew that there must be something else going on. "Party strife is no joke, and seizing the throne is not a dinner party! Just look at the group of the Grand Princess who were just executed, and you will know the consequences of failure."
Xiao Zheng frowned, "Alas, the officialdom is like a battlefield. If you are not careful, you will lose everything. Our Xiao family has always been neutral and never participated in party disputes. Why should we get involved?"
"What father said is not entirely true." Xiao Yueshan was not blinded by Xiao Zheng's image as a kind father. She had her own opinions.
"Since father asked my elder brother to marry into the Chai family, the Chai family is connected to the Lin family, and the Lin family is connected to the Shou family. Previously, the Shou family was related to both the royal family and the royal family. But if the Shou family chooses one between Chu Yuanming and Chu Zhaoxing, then our Xiao family will naturally have to take sides. Who can stay out of the court?"
Her analysis was so logical that even Mrs. Yu had never thought of it this way and stared at her in a daze for a moment.
Xiao Zheng did not expect that his daughter, a woman, could see through things so clearly. He coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment and forgot to care about his daughter calling the Venerable by his name.
"The same goes for my second brother's in-laws. Although the Peng family is not as prominent as the Chai family, they also rely on the Zhao family's favor. Father's plan seemed very good at the time. The Zhao family and the Shou family are both relatives of the late emperor, so whoever comes to power will have legitimate reasons.
But it's still the same. If the Zhao family makes a choice, our Xiao family will also bet together. Now it's best to pray that the Shou family and the Zhao family choose the same person. "
Xiao Zheng sighed. Although his daughter's words were direct, they were indeed correct. "Then in your opinion, what should we do now?"
Xiao Yueshan said with a firm look, "In fact, compared to fighting for the party position, my daughter just wants to do her part to do something for this country and the people. When the war breaks out, the people are displaced. I hope to use my humble efforts to choose a suitable helmsman for this country."
Xiao Yueshan's tone was so strong that Madam Yu was so scared that she held her hand and said, "Shan'er, don't get involved in these things anymore. It's important to take good care of yourself."
Xiao Yueshan was touched, "My daughter knows, but if the country is really in trouble, how can I stand by and watch?"
Xiao Zheng was silent for a while. "It's good that you have this intention, but you need to be careful and don't let others take advantage of you."
"Don't worry, father. I know what to do." Xiao Yueshan had already made a plan in her mind. "From my previous observation, the Shou family may be more inclined to support Prince Jin because of my son's revenge, but the Zhao family's position is still unclear, so we need to pay close attention to the situation in the court. We must be fully prepared to deal with possible changes."
"Oh, forget it." Xiao Zheng sighed, "You have grown up and have your own ideas. But some things cannot be seen so superficially. Now it seems that Prince Jin seems to have the limelight, but there are undercurrents in the court. The Prime Minister is a powerful figure and is not easy to deal with."
Xiao Zheng considered it over and over again before speaking: "Lord Que of the Censorate and even the Zhao family seem to be somewhat alienated from the Prime Minister because of the issue of war or peace, but this does not mean that they do not support Your Majesty.
The Zhao family and the Que family are both well-educated families, and there are many such families in the court. They have their own style and character, and it is absolutely impossible for them to support rebellion. "
"Thank you for the reminder, father. I will be careful." Xiao Yueshan looked at her father gratefully. She was about to drag her whole family into the quagmire, but her father could still talk to her so sincerely.
Xiao Zheng waved his hand, "Okay, it's getting late, you should go back and rest early."
"Then my daughter will take her leave first. Father and mother should also go to bed early." Xiao Yueshan bowed and turned to leave.
Xiao Yueshan returned to the mansion and thought about her father's words. She realized that the complexity of the party struggle was far beyond her imagination and required more intelligence and strategy.
It was late at night, and I didn't expect to hear a call from the door.
Xiao Yueshan asked Shu Tong to go and investigate, and it turned out to be Lu Jiayan whom he hadn't seen for a long time!
Xiao Yueshan hurriedly followed Shutong out to welcome Lu Jiayan in. It seemed that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
"Let me see which fairy she is. She left without saying goodbye that day and I couldn't find her no matter how hard I tried. But she's back today!" Xiao Yueshan said angrily without even thinking.
"I'm back now, let's go in and talk." Lu Jiayan didn't respond, looking solemn. She was dressed like a servant, looking dark and thin, with none of the charm of a bright beauty in the past.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yueshan stopped joking, asked Shu Tong to simply set out some tea and snacks, and then let them all go downstairs to rest.
After the two of them sat down, Lu Jiayan got straight to the point, "I came here today to tell you something important. Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, I left your house and was indeed going to Taozhou, but the journey was long, and I sprained my ankle before I left the city, so I found a clinic to recuperate."
Lu Jiayan didn't give Xiao Yueshan any chance to interrupt. She raised her hand and said in one breath, "By chance, the clinic I applied for is called Yazhengtang. This clinic has branches in various places. It started in Gufan Prefecture and gradually expanded to establish a foothold in the capital.
At that time, a war had just broken out on the border and a large number of refugees were entering the capital. I was curious and wanted to do something good, so I went with the guys in the clinic to give out porridge and money.
There I came into contact with the local Ugric language, which was very similar to Spanish. Fortunately, I had taken this course before, so it was not difficult to learn. I just wanted to learn a skill, so I asked the owner of the clinic to let me work there.
These days, I have been following the people from the clinic to treat people in the refugee camps in Beijing.
Yesterday, I followed my master to receive a distinguished guest who was said to be from Gufan Prefecture. But when I saw that the man looked like a Wuge person and spoke Wuge language, I became more cautious.
Unexpectedly, I heard them talking about the war situation. This was a big deal, so I couldn't help but listen a little more.
The man said that he was delivering a letter to an important official in the capital. Uge Khan was old and frail, and his life was in danger. He might not be able to hold on for much longer. He hoped that the other party could provide some valuable information as promised before and end the war quickly.
When I heard the news, I immediately came to tell you. If someone in the capital is colluding with the enemy and the court doesn't know about it, the consequences will be disastrous!
Every day I see a large number of famine-stricken and sick people in the refugee camp, and I can't bear it. If someone betrays the expeditionary troops, I don't know how many more people will lose their lives. "Lu Jiayan looked at Xiao Yueshan anxiously.
Xiao Yueshan frowned, "This matter is of great importance, and the information you provided is very important. But Jiayan, you must pay attention to your safety and don't take risks lightly."
Lu Jiayan nodded, "I know, you should be careful. If I get other news, I will come back and tell you."
After that, Lu Jiayan stood up and said goodbye. Xiao Yueshan saw her off to the door, and watching her leave, she secretly wondered in her heart, who is the person in the capital who is collaborating with the enemy?
After some consideration, she thought that since she had already told everything to Xiao's father, she might as well tell him about it and discuss countermeasures together.
