Chapter 254 Can't Be Too Perfect
It's no wonder the two were surprised; even the emperor is human, and no one can easily relinquish their supreme power.
Something's not right. The emperor shouldn't have relinquished power so easily. The novel subtly suggests that the retired emperor and the new emperor are at odds, with the retired emperor suppressing the new emperor, and the two forces vying for power.
The reason for the new emperor's ascension to the throne was that the previous emperor was seriously ill and about to die, but unexpectedly, his condition improved later.
Look at the new emperor, he's already ascended the throne. Even though the old emperor had just recovered from his illness, he was unwilling to relinquish power. How could he possibly be willing to do so now that he's in good health?
Jia Hu listened with suspicion; something was definitely not right.
Listening to their grandson's thoughts, Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua understood even more clearly that it was not easy for the emperor to ascend the throne, and it was also very difficult for him to maintain his position. This made it impossible for the emperor to give power to others.
For many years, the emperor has granted the crown prince a lot of power, but in reality, it's all rather insignificant. Jinan Prefecture is different; it's an opportunity to win people's hearts, and that's why the crown prince was given it.
As Jia Hu pondered, a sudden chill ran through him, and a dark thought struck him.
Good heavens! Is the Emperor planning to depose the Crown Prince? He hasn't done anything wrong! Could it be that the Crown Prince did something in the capital that offended the Emperor?
Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan were also taken aback by these words. How did their eldest grandson come up with this idea? This was the emperor delegating power, clearly giving the crown prince some practice.
Jia Daihua was extremely anxious. He couldn't just ask Hu'er directly. Did Hu'er know something?
Yes, that's right. But how do we remind our grandfathers and maternal grandfathers to talk to the Crown Prince?
Is this something the Emperor instructed the Crown Prince to do, so he can find a mistake and replace the Crown Prince?
Probably not. The Emperor wouldn't scheme against his own son, let alone the Crown Prince.
The grandfathers withdrew the alarm, but reminded them to do their jobs properly and that it was alright to explain what had happened here.
I must be too cynical. Oh dear, I can't be like this, I can't be like this. This emperor is actually quite good.
He even recognized himself as his godson and wholeheartedly protected his family.
Jia Hu examined himself and put it aside. Delegating power was a good thing, as he still believed in the Crown Prince's abilities.
No, I still need to remind you, lest the Crown Prince has forgotten what I said before.
This matter needs to be handled well, but not too perfectly. There should be a few minor, insignificant issues for the Emperor to find, and his opinion should be sought frequently. Otherwise, if the son is too perfect, the Emperor might become suspicious again.
That makes a lot of sense, and Jia Daishan agreed wholeheartedly. It was after that conversation between the Crown Prince and the Emperor that the relationship between father and son improved.
"Hu'er, I heard you wrote a letter home a few days ago?"
Jia Daishan asked casually.
"Yes, Grandfather, but you should also write a letter. A few days ago, seeing that the grandfathers were too busy, my brother and I wrote it."
Jia Hu snapped out of his thoughts and replied.
"Oh, Zhen'er's letter must be very short."
Jia Daihua knew very well how many words his grandson could read.
“Grandfather looked down on people, but I was really good at it; I wrote very thick letters.”
Jia Zhen was indignant.
"Grandfather was very curious about how thick it was, but unfortunately he didn't get to see it."
The letter had already been sent back, and the two of them hadn't seen it.
“Grandfather, look at this.”
Jia Hu picked up several building blocks and stacked them together, jokingly saying:
"It's this thick!"
Jia Daihua didn't believe it.
"Hahaha, you can't blame your great-uncle. If you didn't believe you, it would take Zhen'er a month or two to write this thick book."
Jia Zhen's face turned red.
"It's a drawing, not writing. My brother said I'm super good at drawing."
