My Reason for Calmness Chapter 90

Although he was accused of being overbearing, Elijah had now completely calmed down. He would naturally not let Gavin easily avoid this topic.

He has already said the harsh words. If he can't get a result, Gavin will probably not take anything he says in the future to heart, and will not consider his position at all, and will continue to do his own thing. So why does Elijah have to make such a fuss? He has finally won the opportunity, how can he give it up easily!

Elijah didn't like this kind of life where he was despised, ignored and arbitrarily arranged, so he asked, "Then, please tell me, father, why did you insist on choosing Ruan Hongyan as a son-in-law for Skye? I believe that with your wisdom, you can naturally see Ruan Hongyan's ambition and ability. Does Skye really want to have such a husband?"

"There is no man in the world without ambition." Gavin said, "The ambition of a stupid man is far more terrible than the ambition of a smart man. Mingzhan, I chose Ruan Hongyan because he is a smart man."

"I understand your concerns. You don't like your power to be threatened. No one likes it, especially the emperor." Gavin leaned against the armchair and fiddled with a folding fan at hand. Now Elijah was already under pressure from his momentum. As long as he was given a step, the boy would stop yelling. Therefore, Gavin said in a gentle voice, "There are no outsiders here. Let's take the fifth prince as an example. Of course, the fifth prince is only eleven years old and still young, but I heard that he is good at studying. Assuming that the fifth prince will inherit the throne one day, do you think the emperor will like power to threaten his in-laws? The emperor always loves and doubts his in-laws, especially Ruan Hongyan's identity. It's fine that the Zhennan Palace is controlled by the descendants of the Feng family, but the emperor will never allow the Zhennan Palace to be occupied by people other than the Feng family! Of course, Ruan Hongyan is a smart man, and smart people will not go against the trend."
