Chapter 73 Dilemma
He Lingjiang looked at He Xiangshan, whose face was turning white, and asked, "Grandpa, why do you insist that the children of the He family will not enter the court again?"

He Xiangshan's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't answer.

"I'm afraid that is the only one who can keep the He Clan's century-old family silent." He Lingjiang understood.

He Xiangshan smiled bitterly: "Ling Jiang Dang is really smart. Grandpa raised you so well, I don't know if it's time to be happy."

Sure enough.

He Lingjiang frowned slightly: "Has our He family been convicted of a saint?"

He Xiangshan shook his head: "No."

"Then why are the disciples of the He clan not allowed to serve as officials in higher places?"

"Although my He clan has never been blamed on the saint, it has made the saint suspicious. Since ancient times, which of the ministers who have aroused the suspicion of the king will end well?" He Xiangshan sighed deeply, his tone full of helplessness.

"Rather than being frightened in the court hall, the He family is afraid that one day he will make a mistake and cause the whole family to suffer. It is better to resign from office, keep the reputation of this century-old family, and continue to be a family member in Linchuan County. The respected noble clan of the county."

"So, this concession is a promise made by the He clan and the saint?" He Lingjiang tentatively probed.

He Xiangshan nodded: "At the beginning, all the children of the He family left the court and returned to their ancestral home. The sage just persuaded him a few words. He knows this, I know it. From then on, the He family stayed in the countryside and did not enter the temple; Let the He family go away and let the He family continue to be a family of bells and dishes."

This is so, it seems that He Shi's departure from the court is also what the saints thought.

He Lingjiang was puzzled: "What did our He clan do to make the saint suspicious, so that the He clan cannot be tolerated in the court?"

He Xiangshan stood up and took a long sigh: "This is an old thing, you are a little lady, so don't ask more."

He Lingjiang knew that he would not say any more, so he had to give up.She pointed to the things on the table and said, "Grandpa thinks that these were done by the saints?"

He Xiangshan frowned, thought about it carefully, and then shook his head: "I'm afraid this matter has nothing to do with him."

The sage is taboo against the He Clan, but the He Clan has never committed any serious crime.For more than ten years after that, the past was buried, and the sage never found trouble with the He family either overtly or secretly.

How could he have ordered Xuan Yang to spend years secretly plotting for He Clan's bronze amulet?
If he wanted to win the He family, he could settle down with a name at will, and he would be able to capture the He family in one go.

He Lingjiang lowered his eyes. In this way, the He Clan aroused the suspicion of the saint, and Xuan Yang and others secretly murdered the He Clan to obtain the fish talisman.

"Grandpa thinks, between the suspicion of the saint and the murder of someone, which one is more critical?"

How could He Xiangshan be able to say with such a dark-eyed situation?

only--

"I don't even know the purpose of that fish talisman, and I don't know what Xuanyang and others do with it. I'd rather give this thing away to keep the He family safe."

"Those people are afraid of taking things that are delivered to the door. What's more, we don't know who is behind the scenes and what is their purpose." He Lingjiang picked up the Yisu token on the table and said, "Xuanwei The Taoist priest once said that he had seen another constellation token in the north."

Poet He glanced at her and lied, obviously she saw it herself.

He Lingjiang didn't realize it, and continued: "Behind this, I'm afraid there is a big net. Even if we hand over the bronze talisman handed down from the family to each other, the other party will say whether they believe it or not, that is, after they achieve their goals, they will treat the He family. The attitude of the family is debatable."

He Xiangshan looked at the bronze talisman and sighed, "It's not good to send it, and it's not good to not send it. It's really a dilemma."

He Lingjiang put the bronze talisman back into the distance and said in a calm tone: "So, the He family should join the officialdom. The He family has been away from the court for so many years, and there is no foundation on the temple, no matter how suspicious the saint is, he will also It's time to let go. And the person who murdered the He family behind this is right in front of you."

"The top priority is that we should save our strength to protect ourselves."

Although the He clan has private soldiers, since the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, the number of private soldiers of the aristocratic family has been strictly limited. "Zhou Lu Shu Yi" clearly stated that the number of private soldiers of aristocratic families should not exceed the number of three hundred.The He family was raised privately, and he was afraid that it would add up to no more than five hundred.

What's more, these private soldiers are distributed on Zhuangzi, and there is no reason to surround He Mansion every day.

However, before Xuanyang and others only plotted in secret, it can be seen that they are not exposed to the light, and they dare not openly take action against the family.

If the He family can enter the court again as an official, in a temple, and lead the court stipend, he will be a member of the court, and then there will be another layer of protection.

"The imperial court may not care about the rise and fall of aristocratic clans in the wild. But if an official who is an official in the court is suddenly killed, the matter can become a big issue."

"The group of people behind them have a lot of plots, and the He family is just one part of it. What we want is that they don't dare to do anything easily. If possible, it is not impossible to use the hands of saints to remove this wave of people."

Poet He finally opened his mouth to support He Lingjiang: "Brother, I think Lingjiang is right. Besides, although they don't say it, they still have complaints in their hearts."

He glanced at He Xiangshan's face cautiously: "We should take a warning about the second room. We He's children can't stay in this small world in Linchuan all the time."

He Xiangshan pressed his eyebrows and said tiredly, "I can think about this matter again. Go back and rest."

He Lingjiang and He Poet looked at each other and did not persuade them any further.

She stepped forward and took the things on the table: "These things, my daughter will take them back first."

He Xiangshan waved his hand: "Go."

He looked at He Lingjiang's gradually receding figure and sighed.

He knew that Ling Jiang was right, that someone secretly murdered someone, and it was serious to use the power of the imperial court to deter the other party.

What's more, He's settled in the countryside, five or ten years is fine, but what about 20 or 30 years?
For so many years, their He family has been stable and low-key, will the doubts of the saint dissipate a little?
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, Poet He couldn't help poking He Lingjiang: "How dare you say that, what kind of anger is your brother?"

He Lingjiang said: "This is He's acne, which can't be plucked out without being ruthless. It's better to take this opportunity to let my father give up the practice of suppressing He's children to enter office."

She turned sideways, motioned Aman to take a few steps back, and separated the space to speak, Fang continued: "He's aroused the suspicion of the sage, so he took the initiative to withdraw from the court for the sake of safety. It is not a good thing for the development of the He family."

"Blindly backing off doesn't solve anything."

To be honest, although she does not agree with He Xiancheng's approach, she can understand it.What happened to him was a tragedy for the He's eldest house, and it was also a tragedy for himself. "

When He Lingjiang killed him, he did not approve and defend He Xiangshan's practice.It's just because he had innocent lives on his hands, and because He Qiniangzi died because of him, since she borrowed He Qiniangzi's body, she naturally had to seek justice for her.

"I don't agree with my father's actions. Now that I have the opportunity to persuade him, I will naturally tell him. As for what he does, it depends on his own thinking, and I will not interfere any more."

After all, He Lingjiang is not He Qi Niangzi herself, and it is a matter of benevolence and righteousness to think about the safety of the He House and the development of the He family to such an extent.

Poet He knew very well that with her ability, she could get along well wherever she went.

But now, she helped her brother and propped up the entire He Mansion.

Poet He was moved in his heart, and he leaned over and bowed deeply: "Ling Jiang, thank you very much!"
