Chapter 469 Extra if line: The King seizes his minister’s wife, Wang Shaofu is reborn 52
Qi Junyi has one more lifetime of memory than her and knows the emotional entanglement between Wang and Xie.
At this moment, seeing that Wang Shaofu would rather leave the family and become a son-in-law for the sake of his wife and daughter, he couldn't help but wonder if the other party had also recovered his memory.
He said, "Wang Shaofu is not a fool. If he did this, he must have his reasons. As for what others say, there's no need to pay too much attention to it."
His tone was gloomy, as if he understood Wang Shaofu's unorthodox behavior.
Jiang Lingyue couldn't help but wonder, "He's a young man, a third-rank official, a role model for all the scholars in the land, yet he's disobeying his parents and acting so unorthodoxly. I'm afraid there will be countless memorials filed against him at court tomorrow. Doesn't His Majesty feel displeased?"
Qi Junyi nodded and said, "He really did go too far in this matter and gave people something to talk about."
"..." Jiang Lingyue couldn't figure out his thoughts and couldn't help asking, "Are you going to punish him?"
This already has some meaning of participating in politics.
However, she was not politically sensitive and did not notice it at all.
His Majesty the Emperor also looked normal.
He smiled and said, "The Xie family is a century-old prestigious family that has made countless contributions to Dahan. It's a pity that the bloodline is cut off in this generation. Wang Shaofu's actions are wrong for the Wang family, but they have been meritorious for Dahan. Why punish him?"
This will allow the bloodline of the Xie family, which has made great military achievements, to continue, and perhaps in the future they will be able to train a few more great Xie generals for Dahan.
Sitting on the dragon throne and looking down, how could Wang Shaofu not be considered sacrificing his own family for the sake of the greater good?
Jiang Lingyue finally understood what it meant that politicians could make the dead come alive with just a word of mouth.
What's more, this is the golden words of the current emperor.
She looked shocked, and Qi Junyi wanted to laugh.
He reached out and patted her little head, smiling, "Since I know that Xie protected you when you were a child, I naturally have to repay you for your kindness."
He didn't know about his previous life.
Therefore, he did not pay much attention to Xie's tragic death in the Wang family.
Just do your job, and do it as it should be.
Now that you know it in this life, let’s talk about it separately.
Jiang Lingyue vaguely felt the benefits of power.
She blinked her eyes, and they sparkled.
Qi Junyi pulled her over, leaned over and kissed her eyelids, muttering softly, "Little liar."
He still persisted in calling her a 'liar'.
Jiang Lingyue's eyelashes trembled, and she felt inexplicably guilty.
I didn't dare tell him that some fragments of memory kept popping up in my mind from time to time these past two days.
But perhaps it was because of those fragments of memory that she really became much closer to him.
Being with him, I feel a sense of security that no one else can give me.
It made her feel particularly at ease.
She loved being around him.
The two of them stayed together day and night, sleeping in the same bed, and she became closer to him day by day.
The Wang family’s affairs were a hot topic.
On the second day of the court session, a senior official from the Censorate stepped forward and reported the matter.
It is said that Wang Shaofu is unfilial and unbrotherly. For a woman, he disobeyed his parents, betrayed his family, and willingly degraded himself to become a son-in-law. Such a person is actually a close minister of Dahan, and his virtue is really unworthy of his position.
With one person taking the lead, several more officials came out one after another to follow suit.
In response to this, His Majesty the Emperor looked indifferent, recalling the scene when Taizu founded the country.
At the end of the previous dynasty, the world was in chaos.
The founding emperor Taizu had many famous generals under his command.
They met a good ruler who suppressed the chaos and finally pacified the world, and Dahan was established.
Only then can all the people in the world enjoy a hundred years of peace and prosperity.
The ancestor of the Xie family was one of the most powerful generals under the command of the founding emperor Taizu.
After the founding of the country, there were several fierce battles of civil unrest, and it was also the ancestors of the Xie family who took charge of the rebellion and suppressed it.
Finally, he was granted the title of mighty general and the title of marquis.
After three generations of inheritance, he was demoted to earl.
After another three generations, it descended again.
During the prosperous years, military generals had no major battles to fight, so it was very difficult for them to achieve great achievements and revitalize their families.
The Xie family lost their titles, leaving only the merits accumulated over generations.
After three hundred years, after being immersed in wealth and luxury for too long, the bravery of those martyrs will only be recorded in the book of merit.
Especially after the Xie family bloodline was cut off, no one in the court could stand up.
No one would remember that the Xie family was once one of the most prominent families in Dahan.
At this moment, in the eyes of others, the Xie family was a ruined family.
Wang Shaofu abandoned his family and became a son-in-law of the Xie family.
In their opinion, he was bewitched by a woman and made such a rebellious and stupid decision.
But I heard that His Majesty the Emperor was reminiscing about the past.
All the ministers below were startled.
All those who can serve in the court are experts who have fought their way through thousands of troops. Judging the situation and observing people's words and expressions are compulsory courses.
Figuring out the superiors is an instinct ingrained in our bones.
They finally remembered that the Xie family was not an unknown family.
Countless men from the Xie family died on the battlefield, and their contributions to Dahan are enough to be recorded in history.
Others have forgotten these things, but obviously the royal family has not.
At this juncture, why did the emperor mention the merits of the Xie family's ancestors? Need I say more?
Your Majesty agrees that Wang Shaofu should return to the Xie family and revive the Xie family's legacy.
The emperor thought it was a pity for such a family to lose its inheritance.
As for being unfilial and unbrotherly?
Compared to the Wang family, the Xie family is extinct, but the Wang family still has several sons.
How can this be considered unfilial and unbrotherly? It's not like I want to become enemies with my family.
In the eyes of the emperor, marrying into the Xie family was a meritorious service to the country.
Inside the Golden Palace, it suddenly became quiet.
Soon, a colleague who was on good terms with Wang Shaofu came forward.
He spoke eloquently and praised his actions.
Whenever the literati opened their mouths, they almost always described Wang Shaofu's behavior of rushing to marry into the wife's family as sacrificing his life for the country.
He also took the opportunity to praise the Wang family.
He repeatedly praised Mr. Wang for his deep understanding of justice.
Mr. Wang was so angry that his beard trembled, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
Could it be that he was not so clear-headed and understood the bigger picture? He only had this one child who could support the family, and there was no way he would give him up to the Xie family?
The emperor is still here.
Who can say that the emperor is not considering this?
Not only would no one think that the emperor was favoring his beloved minister, but they would also praise the emperor's grace and righteousness.
With such a wise ruler, all the civil and military officials in the world would only regret that they lack talent and cannot work hard for him.
In short, Jiang Lingyue, who witnessed the whole process, finally understood what "the art of controlling subordinates" meant.
