After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power
Chapter 184 Not Forgiving
Every autumn rain brings a chill, and the colder the weather, the closer the divorce date is.
Jiang Xue Ning stayed in the mansion, taking care of her own property and preparing winter supplies for the Wolf Fang Army so that they would not freeze or starve to death in the winter.
The imperial court wanted to use their lives to resist foreign enemies, but still did not treat them well.
Just when I was getting anxious and worried, a special guest arrived.
Qing He knocked on the door and came in, "The eldest master is here."
Jiang Xue Ning picked up the account book on the desk and said, "Please ask him to come in."
Jiang Xufeng did not come alone, he brought some people and carried a few boxes.
"What is all this?"
Jiang Xufeng waved his hand to let everyone leave, and opened the box himself, "This is your mother's dowry jewelry. Now it's time to give it to you."
Jiang Xue Ning asked someone to serve tea while saying, "I'll take it. Thank you for making this trip, big brother."
A smile appeared on his face, and he carefully asked her how the preparations for the wedding were going and whether she needed his help.
The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Jiang Xufeng took the opportunity to take out 80,000 taels of silver notes, "This is the dowry given to you by your third uncle."
Jiang Xue Ning sneered, "Why doesn't he come by himself?"
Jiang Xufeng smiled helplessly, "He said that if he came alone, he might not even be able to get through the door."
"Humph, you still have some self-awareness." Jiang Xue Ning returned the banknote, "I am no longer a daughter of the Jiang family. I will not accept this banknote. Please return it for me."
"You are still so stubborn. This is a little gift from him. It would be a waste if you don't accept it." Jiang Xufeng advised earnestly.
There are bad people and good people in the Jiang family. But from the moment she left, the Jiang family had nothing to do with her, and she didn't want to have anything to do with them.
"You don't need to persuade me. The relationship between him and me as father and daughter has actually ended long ago."
Jiang Xu really felt sorry for her, and he really couldn't do anything about her. He wanted to be a good brother and take good care of her, but he didn't expect that when she grew up and came back, she would actually take the road of revenge.
Everyone knew who had wiped out the Gu family. As the eldest son of this generation, he was responsible for the future of the Jiang family and was destined not to do whatever he wanted.
Jiang Xue Ning saw the sadness in his eyes, sighed and said, "You are a good brother, but we lack a little fate. I am destined to not be the good sister in your heart."
The path she was going to take was considered rebellious and wrong in the eyes of the Jiang family.
"You are a good sister." Jiang Xufeng said seriously, "It is the Jiang family that is sorry for you, but the Jiang family also has its own difficulties."
As soon as the new emperor came to power, he began to purge the Gu family with great force, and anyone who dared to speak for the Gu family suffered a bad end.
The blood of hundreds of people in the Gu family shocked the court officials. Jiang Xufeng remembered that the always strong old man had gray hair almost overnight and looked much older.
The Jiang family was so worried about the new emperor's reckoning that they walked on thin ice every step of the way. It was not until Gu Yuchan died and was sent away that the Jiang family breathed a sigh of relief.
"It is an indisputable fact that my mother died in the Jiang family. I will never forgive her!" she said coldly.
Jiang Xufeng's eyes flashed with bitterness, "I'm really afraid that one day, we will raise knives against each other."
He had been reading books of sages since he was young, and learned to be loyal to the emperor and love the country. The Jiang family has always been a loyal minister, always loyal to the person on the throne.
This is why the Jiang family cannot tolerate Jiang Xue Ning. She is like an alien who can drag the Jiang family into the abyss at any time.
Jiang Xue Ning said indifferently, "When that day comes, none of us should be soft-hearted. We just need to do our best to protect what we want to protect."
She was very glad that she had never invested any feelings in the Jiang family. Without love, when she withdrew, she would not feel pain but only relief.
Jiang Xufeng seemed to be hit by her words and looked hurt.
"I don't want the day to come when the butcher's knife is used to defend against foreign enemies instead of being raised against family members."
He is a typical child of aristocratic family, ambitious and compassionate, but unfortunately he doesn't see things clearly enough.
Jiang Xue Ning asked back, "You took the imperial examination to enter the court, and you want to be a good official and be loyal to the emperor and serve the country. So putting aside all personal grudges and looking at it rationally, do you think the current emperor is a good emperor?"
"He has not been cruel since he came to power, and the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment." Jiang Xufeng commented objectively and seriously, "But in some things, he is indeed too radical."
"Heh, you are the one who knows the current situation best in the court. How can you see that he wants the Wolf Fang Army to fight for their lives and is demanding of them?"
This matter has been the subject of debate almost every time the emperor has been in court. The emperor's attitude is very clear. He has issued a death order for the Wolf Fang Army to stop the Turks, but he has not given them any support.
Xuan Lin was dead, and the Langya Army was missing its backbone. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the emperor was going to completely remove this thorn in his side this time.
Jiang Xufeng said weakly, "The origin of the Wolf Fang Army is original sin."
"So the court treats them like this? Shengjing can enjoy peace and prosperity because they defended the northwest with their lives!"
"He is so quick to kill the donkey after it has done its job. He is really not afraid of the 100,000 souls of the Wolf Fang Army, who will die with regrets in the underworld."
"What did they do wrong? They just wanted to protect this piece of land. They stood firm on the front line and fought with their flesh and blood. But they were stabbed in the back by their own people!"
Jiang Xue Ning became more and more emotional as she spoke, and finally she asked angrily, "Is this the master you studied so hard for ten years and are loyal to once you get into high school?"
The questions one after another hit his heart like a hammer. The reality that he had deliberately avoided could no longer be avoided under Jiang Xue Ning's sharp words.
Jiang Xufeng closed his eyes and said helplessly, "We are powerless to stop the human heart and the imperial power that have been corrupted by power. They are performing the drama day after day."
Jiang Xue Ning calmed down after she finished speaking. "The noble families and ministers naturally don't want to disrupt the current situation. They have nothing to lose anyway, and they are still living a happy life."
The overthrow of the dynasty would be a fatal blow to these vested interests, so in a sense, this group of people are the most loyal to the emperor and the ones who most want to maintain the status quo.
Jiang Xufeng's struggle and pain were obvious after her words exposed the illusion.
"Go away, go back and think carefully whether such a lord is worthy of your loyalty..."
"As for the Jiang family, I will never forgive them. I will completely draw a line between us. Don't worry about me dragging you down with me."
Jiang Xufeng's face turned pale as he took out twenty thousand taels of silver and said, "This is my gift to you as a dowry. You must accept it."
He put the banknote on the table and left in a hurry without waiting for her to refuse.
Judging from his back, he almost ran away.
Qing He, "The eldest master is a good man."
Jiang Xue Ning, "I hope he will wake up sooner. Helian Xuan is not worthy of his loyalty."
If we can wake up as many people as possible, Xiling will be transformed sooner or later!
Helian Xuan has been sitting in the position he stole for so long, and it’s time for it to come to an end.
