Chapter 162 Please Confer the Title of Crown Prince
Gu Jin was shocked when he heard this, "Are you sure you looked carefully?"
"I am sure." Amber said firmly, "I have been trained in the palace of Concubine Wan, so I am very familiar with Prince Heng..."
Amber seemed a little embarrassed when she said this.
In fact, she also had feelings for Prince Heng at that time, and thought that it would be better to be the prince's concubine than to become a concubine in the marquis's mansion.
If King Heng really ascends the throne one day, I can still get a status.
Since I want to be a concubine anyway, the higher I climb, the better.
That day, when she saw Prince Heng going out, she intended to meet him secretly, but she didn't expect to see Prince Heng sneaking into a deserted palace and hugging a guard with red lips and white teeth.
"The affection between the two is definitely not an ordinary relationship between men." After all, no matter how good the relationship between normal men is, they will not hug each other and bite each other.
After hearing this, Gu Jin felt a little sad.
Huo had originally found a nice family for Xie Miaorong, but unfortunately she had too high standards and only wanted to climb up the social ladder.
Gu Jin thought Xie Miaorong was an interesting person. She always had a high opinion of herself and always felt that if she were a man she would have great fortune, but she attributed all her value to the kind of man she married.
On the one hand, he is pretentious, but on the other hand, he is content with mediocrity.
"I hope she doesn't regret it."
After Xie Miaorong's marriage to Prince Heng was finalized, Emperor Hui'an kept Marquis Yongchang in the morning court that day.
Emperor Hui'an flipped through the memorials carelessly, leaving Marquis Yongchang standing in the hall.
Emperor Hui'an was kind-hearted and did not like to physically punish his subjects like the previous emperor did. This is rare today.
After letting the Marquis of Yongchang stand there for about half an hour, Emperor Hui'an put down the paper and pen in his hand and said quietly, "Marquis of Yongchang, do you know why I called you here?"
Yongchang Hou lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and did not say those empty words that the ministers dared not guess the emperor's intentions, and said truthfully: "I think it should be for the marriage of Prince Heng."
Emperor Hui'an smiled, "You are so honest."
"Your Majesty, I only want to be a loyal subject in accordance with our ancestors' teachings. I have no intention of fighting for the throne or power. My mother originally rejected Concubine Wan and found a marriage partner for Miaorong, but..."
Marquis Yongchang was not sure what to say next. As an uncle, he could not say that his niece was unfaithful to her husband.
Emperor Hui'an sighed. After years of serving as an emperor and a minister, he knew the character of Marquis Yongchang. "I believe you are a loyal minister, and I also believe you have no second thoughts towards me, but I don't trust others."
The second house is ambitious. After Xie Miaorong marries Prince Heng, she will inevitably intervene in the fight for the throne. Can Marquis Yongchang really sit idly by then?
If Concubine Wan and Prince Heng asked Marquis Yongchang for help, would he really refuse?
Emperor Hui'an looked at Marquis Yongchang and simply said, "Marquis Yongchang, you and I are both old. The future of the world will depend on the children. Do you understand what I mean?"
Second Master Xie is Marquis Yongchang's younger brother, and Concubine Wan is his younger sister. Blood is thick as water, and a momentary lack of compassion will eventually lead to disaster.
But Xie Ran is different. He is the younger generation that Emperor Hui'an values most and also the powerful official whom he wants to support.
The pupils of Yongchang Marquis shrank, and he looked up at Emperor Hui'an. Seeing the unquestionable majesty on the other's face, Yongchang Marquis bowed and said, "This old minister... understands."
The next morning at court, Marquis Yongchang requested that his eldest son Xie Qing be made the crown prince, and Emperor Hui'an agreed.
When the news reached back to the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion, Su and Gu Jin had no reaction. Su had never intended to compete with Xie Qing for the position of crown prince.
Gu Rou and Aunt Xu were both overjoyed when they heard the news. They didn't expect that such a great happy event would come so suddenly.
Gu Rou's face was full of pride, and she stroked her belly and said, "This child is really a lucky star. My father must have asked for the title of Crown Prince for my husband because he loves this child!"
Aunt Xu didn't say anything, just smiled.
She won this round after all. No matter how much Su and Gu Jin instigated, it was useless because the Marquis' Mansion fell into their hands after all!
Looking at Gu Rou, whose tail was about to reach the sky, a sneer flashed in Aunt Xu's eyes.
Gu Rou is only clever but not wise. Xie Qing regards her as her mother. In the future, this Marquisate will be under her control!
"I must go share this good news with Gu Jin right away!" Gu Rou was so happy that her steps became lighter. She couldn't wait to show off to Gu Jin.
But as soon as she stepped out of the door, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, so painful that she couldn't straighten her waist, "My stomach, my stomach hurts so much..."
He Huan hurried to support Gu Rou, but found that Gu Rou's dress was stained with blood, "Blood, Madam has seen blood!"
