Chapter 714: Does Your Father Want to Seize the Throne?

Yan Ruzhuang was very surprised. She did not expect Young Lady Xie to have such a relationship with Master Mo.

It was no wonder Young Lady Xie would give her a token!

Xie Qiao accepted Yan Ruzhuang’s invitation. Seeing that it was still early, she followed the girl to the Yan Residence to have a look.

Carrying her bamboo basket and holding a horsetail whisk, her face was serious.

Young Lady Yan sat in the same carriage as her. She could not help but look at her, curious about everything on her body.

This master was really… too strange.

She was wearing a Taoist robe, and her body emitted serenity. Her face was serious, but people could not help but want to explore her. She was an expert of her generation, but she was carrying… such a simple basket.

It was like a tall figure stepping on stilts who was played by a child.

She really could not help but want to take a few more glances.

Xie Qiao sat calmly and watched this girl glance at her from time to time. She simply chatted with her and asked, “Your father actually allowed you to invite me over?”

With that said, Yan Ruzhuang’s heart tensed up.

Oh no.

The master knew exactly what her father said about her!

“To be honest with you, Master, actually… My father didn’t agree to invite you. This was all my idea… However, please don’t be angry, Master. He’s just a little stubborn and has no bad intentions.” Yan Ruzhuang was quite nervous.

Master Mo’s words actually made her feel as if she was listening to her teacher’s teachings, and she could not help but feel nervous.

Xie Qiao nodded. “I know your father. He’s very loyal.”

Yan Ruzhuang could not tell if there was underlying meaning behind her words.

“However, is your father loyal to the Qianyuan dynasty or the Emperor?” Xie Qiao asked curiously.

Hearing this, Yan Ruzhuang was stunned. She was very smart and quickly understood Xie Qiao’s meaning.

The Emperor doted on the Crown Prince. He had said countless times that he would pass the throne to the Crown Prince, Zhao Xuanjing. He was even cold to the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince. He even asked the teachers to teach him how to assist the Emperor in the future…

Everyone clearly knew what the Emperor meant.

However, her father often fought with the Emperor.

He said that he was loyal to the Emperor, but he had never approved of the Emperor doting on the Crown Prince. To say that he was disloyal, he was only doing that for the sake of Qianyuan.

Yan Ruzhuang’s heart was a little cold.

As the Emperor, he would always have suspicions. The suspicions of the Emperor would not be applicable on the Crown Prince, but on others. Her father had repeatedly failed to comply with the Emperor’s wishes. Would the Emperor think that his father did not respect him at all?

Would he even think that his father had already found another master, and this master was the Fourth Prince?

“This penniless master is only asking casually. Don’t be nervous.” Xie Qiao chuckled.

The corners of Yan Ruzhuang’s mouth were bitter. “My father only thinks that the Crown Prince’s hand… is not suitable for the position of the Emperor.”

“Your father has the right to decide who will be the Emperor? Since it’s a thought, why not just keep it in his heart? Saying it out loud… this penniless master would think that he wanted to seize the throne.” Xie Qiao’s words were on point.

It was fine to express his opinion fully. However, he did it over and over again. He did not know when to stop. He had already been fined for several years, and he still did not follow the Emperor’s wishes. Was it not a little intentional?

Was it for the people of Qianyuan or for his reputation as a loyal and upright official?

This person’s patience was limited, let alone the Emperor.

The Emperor’s health was pretty great, and he had no intention of abdicating, so he could still endure it.

However, if he made up his mind to pass the throne one day, would Master Yan, who had always opposed it, still support him? Once he objected to it, he would be the first to be punished.

The consequences would be miserable.

Xie Qiao only said that because Young Lady Yan was intelligent enough to fathom it.
