Aristocratic Family (3)

Xie Jingxing praised, "That's right. Consort Jing is arrogant and willful, and the Lu family is impudent. My brother wants to suppress them, but he has to do it slowly."

"Can't we keep them in check?" Shen Miao asked.

Xie Jingxing shook his head. "The Lu family served the late emperor. Most of the people left behind by the late emperor have been cleaned up by my brother. Apart from the two families, the Lu family, which is a military family, and the Ye family, which is an official family. The two families have a deep foundation. They have many henchmen. If we want to uproot them, we will suffer a backlash. My brother can't act rashly. They know this very well, so they don't have any scruples.'
