Chapter 926: Chapter 926: Phoenix Destiny_1
Jiang Ruobai placed a white piece on the board, speaking gravely, “The imperial mind is inscrutable. Seventh Miss, don’t think you can underestimate him just because the emperor treats you with extra affection as his daughter.”
“How could I dare? I know the emperor is very clever.”
“Well good, as long as you understand. Don’t let the emperor’s appearance fool you.”
“Dad, after saying all this, are you trying to tell me that it’s not that you don’t want to know the truth, but you don’t dare to know? Is that right?” Jiang Ning teased her old father with a chuckling eye.
Jiang Ruobai cleared his throat, “You’re illiterate, so you don’t understand the rules of monarch and subject. If the monarch orders his subject to die, the subject has no choice but to obey. If the emperor doesn’t allow us to pursue, we don’t pursue. Why challenge the imperial power unnecessarily?”
“So Concubien I will.”
“You mustn’t act recklessly!”
“Don’t worry, Dad. I make sure I’m fully prepared before I take action. I’ve got elders to look after and young ones to raise. I wouldn’t act impulsively and bring trouble to the family.”
Jiang Yi said, “Little sister, do whatever you want without any hesitation. I’m not afraid of being implicated!”

“Third brother really treats me the best,” Jiang Ning said, her eyes welled up with emotion.
Jiang Ruobai chuckled, “Stinky kid, showing off, aren’t you? Seventh Miss, I’m not afraid of trouble. It’s just that we have to prioritize our actions. Concubine Jin has already passed away, and taking revenge for her doesn’t need to be accomplished immediately. The most urgent matter right now is the war in Rouran.”
“I understand.”
“Seventh Sister, do you know something?” Jiang Yi looked at his sister, noting her unusual silence today, and probed further.
Jiang Ning paused before she replied, “The crown prince told me not to tell.”
Jiang Ruobai laughed, “Since when have you followed his rules?”
“If dad asks me to tell, then I will.”
“No more suspense. There are no outsiders here. Speak quickly.” Jiang Ruobai placed another white piece on the board, boxing in the black pieces.
Jiang Yi watched the chessboard, his expression gradually turning serious from relaxed.
After a few more bites of watermelon, Jiang Ning spoke, “It is said that the emperor is quite a devout Buddhist. Is that true, dad?”
“Indeed, that’s true.” Jiang Ruobai nodded, “Several years ago, the emperor began to hold Buddhism in high regard. Even so, he asked a Buddhist master to renounce the world on his behalf in the temple.”
“A substitute for the emperor? A monk with such high status.”
“Yes. After all, as the head of a state, the emperor couldn’t become a monk himself.” Jiang Ruobai was a little baffled, “This is common knowledge. Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
“It’s related to what I’m going to say.”, replied Jiang Ning.
“Oh? Let’s hear it.” Both Jiang Ruobai and Jiang Yi showed interest, paused their game, and turned to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning secline.”
Jiang Ruobai and Jiang Yi were stunned into silence.
Jiang Ympact. Why should it be her?”
“Because she is the empress, she commands the phoenix’s fate.” Jiang Ruobai glared at his son.
