As the emperor's confidant and the pillar of the country, An Jingcheng naturally knew that the emperor wanted to choose a concubine for the prince. The prince was already twenty-eight years old this year, so he should have already chosen the first concubine. It's just that the crown prince had not passed the exam yet.
, he fell ill and died. For this reason, the prince's selection of a concubine was delayed for two years. When the matter was brought up again later, the prince fell seriously ill again and almost couldn't survive. This was delayed for several more years.
Finally, it seems to be better this year, and the matter of choosing a concubine is really delayed. But in fact, it is better to say that the choice of the crown princess is to celebrate the occasion. The prince's health and bones are not good, and the imperial doctor declared that he would not survive when he was born.
By the time he reaches adulthood, if he hadn't been born into the royal family and kept hanging on precious medicinal materials all day long, how could he have survived until now! Everyone is just stalling for time. Since the prince has not yet chosen his concubine, it is not easy to let the fourth prince and the fifth prince
The prince went over him to choose. He was about to take advantage of this time to choose the concubine for the prince and the two princes.
"What does mother mean, to marry the ninth girl to the fifth prince?" An Jingcheng didn't agree with his mother's intention. Concubine Xian was his biological sister and the fifth prince was his nephew. Now the emperor is getting older and the prince is obviously
It is difficult to take on an important task, and several princes will probably compete for it. However, their status in the An family is already sensitive. If Jiu Yatou is married to the fifth prince at this time, it is equivalent to taking sides. Taking sides when the situation is unknown is not
A wise choice. What's more, who in the whole country doesn't know that the emperor's favorite is the good concubine. Although the good concubine is of low origin, there is no guarantee that the son will not be more noble than the mother. In addition, the concubine Shu and the concubine De are of high origin.
She also has a prince, so the future situation is really difficult to determine.
"Is mother that old and confused?" Mrs. Lin smiled: "I plan to marry Jiu Yatou to the prince."
"What? Isn't this inappropriate?" At this time, An Ruijie, who had been quietly listening to his grandmother and father talking, lost his composure and looked at his grandmother in surprise.
"What's wrong? In the past, Jiu Yatou was stupid and I didn't dare to have such thoughts. Now Jiu Yatou is doing well. With her status, how can she not be worthy of the prince? What's more, our An family has been deeply favored by the emperor and deserves it.
I will relieve the Emperor's worries and solve his problems." Mrs. Lin put down the tea cup and said slowly.
An Jingcheng's brows couldn't help but frown.
This is a very good idea.
The legitimate daughter of a big family is the best bargaining chip for marriage. If the prince is in good health, the position of princess will probably be squeezed out of the heads of all the noble ladies in the capital. But... in this situation, what can be done for the prince concubine?
, I’m afraid it’s only those with low backgrounds. After all, anyone with any brains knows that this is a dead end.
However, this time, we not only have to choose a concubine for the crown prince, but also for the fourth and fifth princes. Isn’t it possible that the status of the crown princess is inferior to that of the prince’s concubine? This matter is indeed an embarrassing matter, so the emperor
This matter has been mentioned, but no official decision has been made yet.
Jiu Yatou is the legitimate daughter of their Jingguo Hou Mansion, and her status as the Crown Princess is enough. If she becomes the Crown Princess, the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince will not have to worry about anything anymore. The Concubine Xian does not have to worry about the Fifth Prince.
The prince's marriage is about to happen, and the emperor will also be grateful to them for being aware of current affairs.
When An Jingcheng thought about it, he knew that his mother's move was an excellent one. Not only did it relieve Concubine Xian's worries, it might also make the emperor value Concubine Xian more.
However, this is equivalent to pushing Jiu Yatou into a pit of fire. If the prince dies, how will she, the princess, deal with herself? If I remember correctly, she is only fifteen years old this year, right?
This matter made An Jingcheng a little difficult to make a decision for a while. No matter what happened to his relationship with the Yu family, it was his daughter after all. He pushed his own daughter out to be a sacrifice, and An Jingcheng couldn't help but hesitate.
