Chapter 511: Praying for jade to persuade my mother
Xiao Qiyu came back and sat next to Queen Jiang: "If you can hold back your tears, I will sit here. You can say whatever you want. I will listen with my ears open."
"You can't be careless when you listen with your ears open. If you listen to your left ear, your right ear will be confused." Empress Jiang lowered her eyes: "But it's easier to talk here than outside. Let's not hide our words. You should be familiar with my mother.
Son, what do you want to do about ascending the throne?"
Xiao Qiyu thought for a while: "Queen mother, our treasury is empty and we are impoverished during the war. Not only the treasury, but also the people's lives are not rich."
This is a fact, and Queen Jiang also knows it.
"Now that Dai Viet is no longer at war, I have been paving the way for a year to implement the New Deal, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and Dai Viet's treasury is full. This is the foundation of the country. Ordinary people know that they have money in their pockets, and they have peace of mind."
Xiao Qiyu glanced at Queen Jiang: "But people from my grandfather's family cannot be used!"
Queen Jiang sighed: "Your Majesty, I'm still your blood relative after all."
"In terms of relatives, you are their closest relative. But when I was sent out of the palace, did my grandfather's family protect you?" Xiao Qiyu lowered his eyes and snorted coldly: "Not only did they not protect you, but they also
Is it a long-term plan for my mother to retire from office? This is clearly the behavior of a villain who runs away when something happens!"
Queen Jiang opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
Xiao Qiyu opened up her chatterbox and risked her life: "She is also a daughter who is married outside. The second aunt was tortured by the Tang family. Grandma can bring the whole family to the door and fight with each other. The Tang family has to beg for mercy! The eldest aunt was tortured by her husband's family.
Shu Mo, grandma can bring the person back directly and live a good life, but ask the old Geng family, do you still dare to say a harsh word to your eldest aunt? If the people are like this, why did the Jiang family ignore you back then? "
These words were so heartbreaking. Empress Jiang had never thought about it before, but now that Xiao Qiyu said it, she felt extremely sad.
As the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, she shouldered the family's mission and entered the palace to be the queen, and was honored to be the empress. However, she was not as happy as the daughter of the Su family. There was a huge difference between those who were protected by her parents' family and those who were not.
"Moreover, Mingzhu Academy, if I hadn't seen that they were wooing students from all over the world and intending to take charge of the government after I ascended the throne, would I have done anything to them? Queen Mother, it's not that my son is ruthless, but I want to prevent the Jiang family from going down the road of death. Do you think
, If the Jiang family is too ambitious, can I tolerate them?" Xiao Qiyu said lightly: "Being labeled as a rebellious minister and traitor is a serious crime that has implicated the nine clans. Just for your sake, I don't want Jiang to do it.
The family fell to that level of land."
Empress Jiang took a deep breath: "Your Majesty, the Jiang family's scholarly family speaks of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country."
"Mother, there was a shortage of food and grass in the northwest last year. Did the Jiang family give out a grain of rice or a penny? Do you talk about being loyal to the emperor and serving the country?" Xiao Qiyu shook his head slightly: "Everyone knows it in their hearts. The last thing they can really give is
A grain of rice, the family that is willing to give up the last penny is the Su family."
Empress Jiang picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "The Su family has contributed a lot, mother knows in her heart."
"But, Queen Mother, you know too little. The Jiang family is not like everyone else. When they took grandma to Mingzhu Mountain, they obviously knew the wonders of corn and wanted to get some credit from it, but they didn't know how to treat her with courtesy. You
My two sisters-in-law have to ask Grandma to tell me a thing or two about a bowl of porridge. I am so angry but I don’t realize it. Your grandmother, who is known as the smartest among women, went to the Su family in order to suppress it.
Liurong Village bullied grandma, and that's not all. When grandma returned home, your grandfather actually came to the Su family to apologize. He seemed to be fine, but if the method of slapping a sweet date was used in the Su family, they would be much better.
Do you think too highly of yourself?"
Queen Jiang:......!!!
"These may seem like trivial matters, but isn't character can be seen in trivial matters? Isn't a family's family tradition visible in everyone? My grandma would never say a word about these things to me.
, but I am grateful to her for taking care of me and saving my life. She has arranged people around her a long time ago. What is it that I don’t know?" Xiao Qiyu shook his head: "I don’t praise the Su family, and the Su family has no need.
I support, but the Su family is supporting me. I will not allow others to use their power to overwhelm the Su family, and I will never retain them, not even members of the Jiang family."
Empress Jiang nodded: "If you don't need it, don't use it. If they are willing, they can do whatever they can. It doesn't matter if there is no Jiang family in the court."
"As long as you can see through this, let's talk about the court." Xiao Qiyu looked at Queen Jiang and said word by word: "If I ascend the throne, I will not let my power go to others. My servants will not be able to keep their duties and try to influence my governance.
Those who are responsible for the policy, the light ones will be sent to serve, and the heavy ones will not be spared. I will pick them out one by one. How many people are there who can withstand my investigation to the end? "
Queen Jiang was really dumbfounded now. How could this child have such a strong temper?
As everyone knows, such Xiao Qiyu can be considered gentle. After all, Chen Yu has a profound influence on him. Whether it is in governing the country or as a person, he knows in his heart that if he really kills everyone, grandma will take Su.
His family has retired, and there are very few people around him that he can truly trust.
Queen Jiang thought for a while and asked tentatively: "What about the Queen's appointment?"
"I'm only fourteen years old, and it's only been a few days since the New Year. There's no rush for the queen's affairs," Xiao Qiyu said.
Empress Jiang heard that Xiao Qiyu's attitude became a little gentler, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, it is really inappropriate to have no queen in the harem. I think there are two girls of the Su family who are about the same age. Why don't you choose one, and your mother will follow you?"
How about the old lady of the Su family speaking out?"
Xiao Qiyu raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Queen Jiang and smiled: "Mother, do you think grandma will let girls from the Su family enter the palace? They don't need a daughter's family to be favored by the Su family, and if the Su family has girls
Is it really good to enter the palace, even if it means becoming a queen?"
Queen Jiang's heart skipped a beat.
"My father is very affectionate to you, but so what? Can you stop the checks and balances of the former dynasty and the harem? The concubines from the three palaces and six courtyards will be carried in, and seven or eight princes will be born. In the end, they will fight for the throne.
Killing all without leaving a trace? The Tian family is ruthless and cannot be merciful. I will not take risks with the Su family." Xiao Qiyu pursed her lips: "Besides, when I come back this time, grandma is already restraining the younger sisters.
Well, if I still don’t know why, doesn’t it mean it has a human head and a pig’s head?”
When Queen Jiang heard this, she couldn't help but feel sad again, and lowered her eyes: "So, the Queen Mother can't help my prince in any way."
"You just need to sit firmly in your position as Queen Mother, hold the power of the harem in your hands, and control all the women of your father. If you know that the woman is restless and dares to move forward, send it to your father."
Discipline me." Xiao Qiyu said calmly.
Empress Jiang found that her palms were covered in cold sweat. She, the emperor, was a bit too aggressive, but in the current situation, she couldn't do anything. If she really didn't care, wouldn't the emperor have to let herself go to the late emperor?
Mother and son looked at each other, and Queen Jiang sighed: "When will you return to the palace?"
