Jiang Yanxuan didn't want to go. What did today's incident have to do with his sister?

As my mother was my aunt and the mistress of the household, she did some things that were not right, which caused my second and third aunts to make a fuss.

It's already a shameful matter, why do you want to push it to your sister?

But he changed his mind and realized that his sister was not willing to go to Prince Cheng's Mansion. She went to the palace after the recognition banquet and was unwilling to stay in the Marquis' Mansion.

Now that her grandparents have come to the Marquis' Mansion and specifically asked to see her, it is also an opportunity for her sister to save face.

Jiang Yanxuan asked someone to tell his father, then prepared a carriage and went out to look for his sister.

Today's incident was such a big deal, of course he knew that his sister was also in the Third Prince's Mansion, but...

I didn't expect that they would go to Prince Qi's Palace again at this time.

I haven't heard of any dinner party being held.

He had no choice but to rush to Prince Qi's palace again.

When he arrived, Yuntang had already strolled around Prince Qi's mansion and was drinking tea and chatting with her sisters and princesses.

After all, it was snowing, and Xiao Fei couldn't really wait until dark to set the banquet, as the princesses also had to return to the palace.

When the gatekeeper of Prince Qi's Mansion learned that it was the second son of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion who came to see me, he did not dare to neglect him.

He immediately sent someone to report to Xiao Fei and led the person into the mansion. The housekeeper personally welcomed him to a small hall in the front yard and served him tea.

Jiang Yanxuan held a cup of hot tea in his hand, but his mood was a little complicated.

Although he was the grandson of Prince Cheng and attended all the palace banquets, he did not have a close relationship with the emperor's princes.

Their father had warned them to keep a low profile and preserve the ancestral legacy of the Marquisate. The current emperor is in his prime and would not like his subjects to hastily take sides and disrupt the court.

They brothers are close to their cousins ​​in Prince Cheng's Mansion, but they will not use this relationship to curry favor with the prince.

He didn't understand when he was young, but later, when he saw the emperor arranged for the Crown Prince and the Prince of Qi to be study companions, he began to understand what his father said.

The prince's companion, Chen Junen, is the eldest grandson of the Minister of Personnel.

Lin Shende, the companion of Prince Qi, was the second grandson of the Minister of Revenue.

They are all grandsons of the six ministers, not from noble families of more than a hundred years, and there are no sons of dukes or marquises.

However, the emperor arranged a marriage between Princess Mingyue and the eldest grandson of the Minister of Revenue.

By this comparison, it seems that the power of the Minister of Revenue's family is slightly greater, which also means that it will be more helpful to the King of Qi.

It was not until the third prince Xiao Ye chose a study partner that the emperor chose his younger brother Jiang Yanlang, a member of the Yong'an Marquisate.

The emperor's choice seemed to have disrupted the previous intention.

Jiang Yanlang's mother is Princess Kangning, and behind her is Prince Cheng's Palace.

From this perspective, it seems that the Third Prince has come from behind and has gained the upper hand. In addition to his maternal family being the Duke of Yue's Mansion, he also has the factional power of the Prince Cheng's Mansion.

Under the Prince Cheng's Palace, there are also the Prince Chengyang's Palace, the Duke Chen's Palace, the Marquis Yong'an's Palace, and the Prince Chenghe's Palace.

By comparing in this way, it seems that the power of the three older princes is almost the same, and there is no discernible difference in whether one is gaining or losing.

But this is just an estimate from the perspective of outsiders. Only the people in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion understand it.

Ever since Jiang Yanlang became the third prince's tutor, Jiang Yanxuan lost the opportunity to go to the South Camp for training with his elder brother.

Apart from passing the imperial examination, there was no other career opportunity for him, and his grandfather could not find a job for him.

Even my grandfather resigned from his position and gave it to his two sons.

For this reason, the eldest son, Prince Chengyang, went to the southern border to guard the southwest for five years.

This autumn, after Wuwei Marquis Song Junxian takes over, Prince Chengyang will be able to return to the capital, which should be by the end of the month.

At this critical moment, the emperor asked the crown prince to supervise the country. I don't know what his intention is...

And his sister seems to be of a higher generation, so the Third Prince and the King of Qi are competing to invite her to their homes as a guest. I wonder what the meaning of this is?

While Jiang Yanxuan was daydreaming, Yuntang led the four sisters over, and the other brothers followed behind.

The younger sisters have already told them what happened in the mansion today. When they learned that their second brother came at this time, they were naturally worried, not knowing how the situation would end.

However, Jiang Yanxuan only said, "Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng came to the mansion to see mother this afternoon. They wanted to see my sister, so they asked me to go look for her."

He was too embarrassed to tell his brothers and sisters from the second and third wives about other matters.

What’s more, this is in the Prince Qi’s Palace.

Seeing this, Yun Tang raised his fingers and calculated, then curled his lips and said with a faint smile: "They came because of Princess Kang Ning, and they just came to see me by the way."

"Go back and tell them that I'm a guest at Prince Qi's mansion and will stay at the palace at night. I've been busy these past few days."

She forged a five-element sword overnight and gave it to the fat boy, but she hadn't taught him how to use it yet.

If you don't know how to use it, it's just a nice jeweled sword.

I haven't made more of the peace jade that I promised to the fat boy yet. In a couple of days I'll have to give them as gifts to several places, so I have to stock up some more.

Who has the time to argue with those people?

Seeing that she was unwilling to go back, Jiang Yanxuan sighed in annoyance.

Looking around, he saw that they were all his brothers and sisters, so he had to lower his voice to explain what he had heard from Zhou Siyue.

I learned that the Marquis of Yong'an had actually taken away the power of the head of the family and handed it over to the old lady...

Yun Tang smiled and said, "Second brother, go back and tell father that what happened today was just a small matter, but..."

"This small matter involves the interests of the second and third houses. Princess Kangning shouldn't act arbitrarily."

She paused here and glanced at the others on her left and right.

"The noble families in the capital hold banquets, and personal connections come and go frequently. Whenever you move around, there are opportunities, whether it's for career development or marriage."

"Third, fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth brothers are old enough to get married, and the sisters are also not too young, so they need to find a good family."

"Even a Taoist like me understands this principle, so it is impossible for Princess Kangning not to understand it, but what she did was not righteous."

"This is probably the main reason why Second Aunt and Third Aunt quarreled today."

"Since we haven't split up yet, the Yong'an Marquisate is not exclusive to our eldest branch."

"At least since it involves the second and third wives, she should discuss it with them. At worst, she should report it to the old lady for a decision."

"I guess my father got so angry because of this, because he was mad at her for being so high up and looking down on others."

"I guess my father has taken away her power as the head of the family and humiliated her, so she is making a scene at home and has asked Prince Cheng and his wife to back her up?"

Yun Tang said this with a light "huh" and said calmly:

“Presumably, even if Princess Kangning is not the head of the family, the power of the family will not be in the hands of the second or third branch. Prince Cheng’s Mansion will not allow it.”

"If I go back now, with my attitude... I'm really afraid that I'll just be able to see her off to the grave. I don't want to get involved in too much karma for the time being, so I won't be going back for the next few days."

Jiang Yanxuan listened to Yuntang's words, sometimes nodding in agreement, sometimes empathizing, sometimes...

Finally, when he heard Yuntang's reason for not going back, he suddenly became anxious.

"But, but if we really think about what happened today, my mother obviously has a point." Jiang Yanxuan thought of the question Zhou Siyue reminded him of.
