The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1228

Moreover, they were at their wits' end after Lord Moore had totally recovered from his terminal illness and was now as healthy as a middle-aged man. This meant that he would live for another ten to twenty years. 7

Jasmine might be green and inexperienced now, but with the dedication and hope Lord Moore placed on her, as well as his protection and security, it was no doubt that Jasmine would be able to establish herself as the reliable head of the family in a few years' time. 2

By that time, it would be very difficult to overthrow her.

It was a well-known fact from history that whenever the noble dynasties were vying to claim the throne, the best time for an insurgency was when the new emperor was on the throne with a weak foundation of power. 5

For example, Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty rose to rebellion against his nephew, the Jianwen Emperor, who had recently ascended the throne, and successfully overthrew the newly-elected emperor.

However, their current problem was that Jasmine was not the Jianwen Emperor.

When the Jianwen Emperor ascended the throne, Zhu Di’s father, Zhu Yuanzhang, was already dead. If Zhu

Yuanzhang were alive, Zhu Di would not have succeeded in his insurgency. 1

Now that Lord Moore was alive and well, it had put a damper on Reuben and Tyler.

They had nothing up their sleeves to topple Lord Moore's decision, so they could only stand back for the time being and secretly observe the situation for their next strike. 7

Upon seeing Jasmine come in, Lord Moore smiled delightfully and said, "Oh, our new head of the family i s home! Come, Jasmine, take the main seat!"

Jasmine had thought that only her grandfather was waiting for her. She did not expect to see the entire family in the living hall. More astonishingly, her grandfather would give up the main seat for her, which made her a little flabbergasted. 7

Jasmine hurriedly shook her hand and said, "Oh no, Grandpa, it's better for you to sit at the main seat. I'll just sit next to you." 5
