Chapter 210: Chapter 210 None of This Is a Problem
Translator: 549690339
First of all, the second master of the Xie family was the son of a concubine in the crown prince. Just like the attendants beside the emperor, he was undoubtedly a prince.
As a trusted aide of Emperor Yu Heng, Xie Xian was clearly following Emperor Yu Heng’s lead. He had rejected the Crown Prince’s invitations many times, so his stance was very clear.
The battle for the Crown Prince was no longer just a battle between the Crown Prince and the Xin An Prince. It was also a battle between the uncle and nephew of the Xie family. Because Xie Xian did not know how to appreciate favors, the Second Master of the Xie family was extremely embarrassed in front of the Crown Prince. Even though the Crown Prince did not say anything, the other officials who were also under the Crown Prince were not so good-natured. They were just short of saying that the Xie family had two plans and was speculating.
As a result, the relationship between the Xie Clan’s Second Master, Third Master, and Xie Xian was at loggerheads.
The aristocratic families had always been clear about who to stand on. They did not have a foot in two boats and bet separately. The second and third masters of the Xie family claimed to be elders, so Xie Xian, who was a junior, should listen to them and put the interests of the Xie family first.
However, from the marriage, it could be seen that Xie Xian had his own ideas. The second and third masters of the Xie family joined forces to pressure him, but it had no effect on him at all. Instead, it made him so angry that he looked up to the ground. He treated his uncle and nephew like enemies.
All along, Second Master Xie had been stirring up trouble behind his back. Wherever he pointed, Third Master Xie would hit. The two of them cooperated seamlessly.
As they fought, they brought Lady Xiao in.
There was no other reason. Who didn’t know that the princess of Xuancheng was married to the Xiao family?
Xie Xian was clearly helping Xin ‘an Prince because of his marriage with Lady Xiao, betraying the interests of the Xie Family for his father-in-law’s family. He was bewitched by beauty, and Lady Xiao was the source of trouble.
Third Master Xie didn’t know what to say to Xie Xian.
Xie Xianren was in high spirits and didn’t take it seriously.
This angered Third Master Xie. Why was he so smug? Who hadn’t married before?”You lecherous bastard!”
He was!
If it wasn’t for the fact that he was afraid of angering Third Master Xie to death, Xie Xian controlled his strength in time, and that head would have nodded down.
“Third Uncle, let me tell you the truth.”
Xie Xian had a pleasant expression on his face. It was unknown whether it was because he was really in high spirits after a happy occasion or because the tonic he had taken on time recently had a remarkable effect. His complexion was very good, and there was a high-spirited energy between his eyebrows.
In Third Master Xie’s eyes, this was a clear provocation and demonstration.
“What Gu Qing told me before was all lies!”
Xie Xian didn’t deny it.” Uncle, I am an official of the Imperial Court, an official of the Emperor. As long as the Emperor isn’t a fatuous ruler or tyrant, I have to follow the Emperor’s will when I become an official. The throne is a matter of the royal family. The emperor can pass it to whoever he wants. I don’t think we can stop the emperor by interfering.”
“The throne is not the emperor’s family matter, this is a national matter!”
Xie San Ye was furious. Today, he pampered Xin ‘an King, but tomorrow, he might take a fancy to another son. Whichever son he took a fancy to, would there be an end to it?”
“Our aristocratic families need to have the backbone of a noble family. As an official, we also need to have principles. We can’t just sell ourselves to him after taking his salary.”
The strength of character of the aristocratic families was to protect the interests of the aristocratic families?
Xie Xian didn’t think much of it and said it in a dignified manner, but wasn’t it just a fight for benefits? He made it sound so righteous, but wasn’t it actually because of the benefits?
“Third Uncle, do you know why the Emperor made Second Uncle the son of the Crown Prince’s concubine?”he suddenly asked.
Third Master Xie was stunned. What did this have to do with what they were talking about today?
“It was your father who begged me to come.” He told the truth. Second Master Xie was the son of a concubine, so it was actually very clear in the officialdom that he was a legitimate son. Generally speaking, a legitimate son of the same family would have a better future in the officialdom than a concubine’s son.
Xie Xian nodded.” Father was once the Grand Tutor and lectured the Crown Prince…The Crown Prince’s talent was average, and he was impatient and jealous. However, all these shortcomings were in front of the Emperor, so the Crown Prince deliberately restrained himself. Even if the Emperor couldn’t see it, it didn’t mean that the people below couldn’t see it.”
Third Master Xie was completely stunned. So, his brother was trying to trick Second Brother?
“You, what do you mean?” Or was Xie Xian trying to trick his father?
“Father’s meaning is that 1 want to have a relationship with you so that the Crown Prince can take care of me when he ascends the throne. If the Crown Prince still cared about their old relationship. Also, before his father died, he had thought of asking for a position as an assistant minister for Second Uncle. However, his father left in a hurry. Although the Emperor agreed, he had no intention of promoting him. Second Uncle, do you know why?”
“..”Why don’t you just say it directly?
“Second Uncle isn’t talented enough.”
“Did the Emperor say this himself?” Third Master Xie frowned. Compared to his brother, his two brothers were indeed not as talented. Let’s see who they can compete with. However, it would not be good for the emperor to look at it this way. It would affect his career.
Xie Xian nodded.
“The Emperor was wholeheartedly supporting the Crown Prince, how could he not pay attention to the people and things around the Crown Prince?”
“After Noble Consort Liu’s death, the Emperor was heartbroken, but that doesn’t mean that his brain isn’t working well. It’s just that he’s occasionally a little extreme, but it’s not to the extent of acting on impulse when it comes to choosing the heir. In fact, he had long been dissatisfied with the Crown Prince, but at the right time, this dissatisfaction erupted.”
“Third Uncle, the Emperor…He’s in his prime.” Xie Xian stopped at the end of his sentence.
“Second Uncle holds a high position and is extremely noble. There is really no need to fight for a short period of time on the matter of choosing the heir.”
Actually, to put it bluntly, it was only because Second Master Xie’s family background was not satisfactory that he could only cling to the Crown Prince, wanting to have a future and earn the credit of following the dragon.
“The reason why the Wang family of Langya spared no effort is because half of the Crown Prince’s bloodline is from the Wang family. Is there really a need for our Xie family to go against the Emperor for the Wang family?”
At this moment, Third Master Xie did not know what to say. This nephew of his was too ambitious.
He told him to unite to protect the crown prince’s orthodoxy, but he actually brought out his dead brother to lecture him. The problem was that he had always followed his brother’s lead.
Moreover, after saying so much, only one sentence hit the nail on the head.
He was already a Chancellor, his status was extremely noble, so many aristocratic families would not even dream of going. If the Emperor took it back, would the Crown Prince be able to give him a higher and more noble official position after he ascended the throne?
Third Master Xie came in a huff and left resentfully. Before he left, he glanced at Xie Xian with a smile on his face, making people angry.
It wasn’t that he was smart. He was just in a good mood. He chatted casually with Third Master Xie. If he could listen, he would listen. If he couldn’t listen, he would act.
According to his understanding of Third Master Xie, he probably wouldn’t act like one anymore, at least on the surface.
His talent was average, but it was fortunate that Third Master Xie could listen to advice. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been persuaded by Second Master Xie for so many years. After being a gun for so many years, he would shoot wherever he was pointed at.
These two uncles of the Xie family were jumping up and down, but it didn’t affect Xie Xian’s mood. The wedding date was getting closer and closer, and his mood couldn’t calm down. Instead, he needed something to make his burning heart cool down. She was afraid that the heat would melt her and she would not be able to make it to the wedding day.
To him now, as long as it was not something that prevented him from getting married, it was not a problem..
