Chapter 275 Succession of legitimate heir
An Zhongtao only smiled bitterly, " Qing Ran entered the palace, accompanying the ruler is like accompanying a tiger, it is also careful every step, one step cannot be wrong ah."
"That is natural, and this matter has already been decided. Before, I was still worried about Qing Ran's marriage, she is such a sweet-hearted girl and I don't know what can match her. The Crown Prince I have met once, his appearance is excellent. I heard he is also very smart, but his reputation is a bit…Of course, what man doesn't have three wives and four concubines, still young isn't it, just heard people say that the Crown Prince is not in good health, is this true?"
"Yes, the crown prince suffered from foetal poison when he was a child, he has always been sick and weak." An Zhongtao finished frowning, this was one of the reasons he was worried about his daughter, the crown prince's body was so weak, if he couldn't live long enough, in the end, it would still be Qingran suffer.
The old lady sighed, " How can that be said, really."
An Zhongtao didn't answer.
Was that what his mother had asked him to do?
The old lady finally spoke again, "Zhongtao, mother has something to tell you, this Qing Ran is also the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince is weak, there is no one to take care of here and outside, how can it be."
"What does Mother mean?"
"This is what I think, Ming Chen is the Legitimate heir of the General's House, but he is too young. I want you to pass Ming Bo over, as the direct Legitimate heir of the General's House. Now that he is fifteen, he can also help Qing Ran some and in the future he can also take care of the General's Residence for you, and if the General's Residence passes into his hands and with Qing Ran's care, there is nothing wrong with it. Zhongtao, what do you think?"
" Succession to Ming Bo?" This Zhongtao could not believe his ears, "But the General's House already has a Legitimate heir, besides, this is not in accordance with the etiquette and the law."
"Why not? You should think of the General's House, but you should also think of Qing Ran. If she enters the palace, once she becomes a queen, there will be no one to promote her mother's family even if she wants to. Ming Bo is a filial and courteous boy, and I am relieved that he is at your side, and you can also be at ease. Such a stable child, how can you be wrong?"
"This matter ...... allows Son to reconsider." An Zhongtao politely refused.
The expression on the old lady's face was not very good: "I've been worrying about you all day and night, and you still don't appreciate it, really ......"
After An Zhongtao said goodbye, the expression on the old lady's face was not very good, she felt that her son was the most filial, how come he didn't listen to himself?
An Zhongtao looked back again after leaving the Beiyuan, a look of doubt on his face.
When An Ranyue heard Min'er talking about Ming Bo, she was very surprised. What did Grandma mean? Why did she ask her brother to recognize Uncle as his righteous Father? She also said that she could back up the Crown Princess, but if he became the Crown Princess' brother, he would definitely become an enemy to herself in the future.
After all, she was Kang Wang's woman, and even if she was slow, she knew that the Crown Prince and Kang Wang did not have the same heart at all, so won't this be hectic in the future?
She pouted and went back to find her mother.
An Yanran has fallen ill, because she learned the news that An Qingran was given in marriage, this is really too big a blow to her, it seems that no matter today or in the future, since there is no way to deal with her, then what about her mother's revenge, does she have a future in this life?
She was sick and now she was just a lonely person, everyone was celebrating the matter of the Crown Princess, her parents had also thanked the Royal Palace, of course they would not have time to care about her. And An Mingxuan was still a child after all. He only knew how to play. He went to his father to please him, but just when his father was upset, he was driven back and never went there again.
There was nothing An Yanran could do about it.
In the end, her own affairs had not yet been resolved.
Now it is true that Kang Wang will not come back to ask for An Qingran's hand in marriage, But who knew what he was thinking in his heart?
That day when she heard the servant girl say that Kang Wang had seen An Qing Ran's true face before he ran away, her heart was actually a little disappointed. It seemed that he value a woman's appearance more, and from that thought, when compared, he was far worse than the Crown Prince.
An Qingran is really lucky, she is disfigured and the Crown Prince doesn't care?
An Yanran has no one to talk to about her grievances, but An Yuanyue comes to see her from time to time, but who doesn't know that in her heart she wants to be well, so that she can become the side concubine of Kang wang alone.
An Yanran grumbled to herself for a while in the courtyard; her own life would not be any better in the future when An Qingran entered the palace.
Although An Qingran was not too optimistic about the prospect, her heart was still full of happiness.
Certainly Fang knew the news, she sat in the house with a very unpleasant face, if An Qing Ran could not marry, she might be in a better mood, but instead she married the Crown Prince.
Shen Zhihua walked in.
Fang Shi looked at him, "My son, I dare say we have really climbed high."
Shen Zhihua's face appeared disdainful: "Who knows if they had planned this behind the scenes? I knew it, they might have already done it and are still pretending to be noble."
His words were hard to hear, but Sister Qiao did not say anything next to him.
Fang Shi waved her hand: "No matter what, from now on our family is considered a laughing stock, and still want to compete with the Crown Prince for women, really went out of their way. Your cousin aunt is as well, her heart is written but very sure, as if there is no escape with her this matter, and what is the result ......"
Qiao Jie smiled, "Mother, I heard that Aunt Cousin wants to pass An Ming Bo to the first house, apparently she wants the second house to be influenced with this Crown Princess' glory."
"They can borrow all they want, it has nothing to do with us. It's just that Zhihua had proposed marriage to Qing Ran earlier, so I wonder if the Crown Prince will be angry because of the resentment, Really, if your Aunt Cousin had said earlier about her relationship with the Crown Prince, why should we interfere and pour ourselves into shame."
"It doesn't matter how humiliating it is, she hasn't entered the palace yet in the end, and even if she did, what would happen, haven't we heard that the Crown Prince is a sickly child? Who knows how long he can live after his current scenery ......" Shen Zhihua's face is full of cold smiles.
Fang Shi also laughed at her words, "If you say that, don't let people hear you and think we can't eat grapes and say sour."
"So what if he hears it, can't he condemn me now?"
"But not to be condemned? It's a big crime to scorn the Crown Princess." Fang Shi said with a grimace.
Shen Zhihua saw this and stopped saying anything.
Shen Zhiyun happened to come in at this moment, with a joyful look on her face, "I didn't expect that a Crown Princess would appear in the General's residence, wow, I can go into the palace more often in the future, I am the sister of the Crown Princess, in front of people, I must be superior?"
"You must not dream, Even a genuine sister is not above for all others. What's the point of being close to her. Don’t you saw how as An Yanran is sick all the time? This motherless child is really pitiful ......"
