Translator: 549690339

Noble Consort Liu had just passed away. Even if she did not need to observe filial piety, she could not get married within a year. If word got out, she would be a joke.

Although Emperor Yu Heng had agreed to Prince Xin ‘an’s request and could decide on his own marriage, it was just that times had changed. Choosing the Xu family’s marriage alliance was currently the best choice.

Emperor Yu Heng didn’t hide anything and truthfully told King Xin ‘an about the various things that happened inside. There was nothing between the two of them that couldn’t be said. Ever since Emperor Yu Heng had the idea of changing his heir, he had brought King Xin ‘an with him. He had taught him how to handle the government and all kinds of schemes. In the past, this was the treatment of the Crown Prince. However, the Crown Prince was not taught. He was good at all kinds of things by his side, but when it came to dealing with himself, he was out of tune and had a bad temper.

In the past, he still had the mood to correct him and sent people to keep an eye on the Crown Prince every day. Now, he did not have that mood, but… Pure surveillance.

The Xin An King had the appearance of Imperial Consort Liu, he was extremely handsome, but his personality was similar to Emperor Yuheng, he was shrewd and shrewd, just a little bit was enough to understand.

In the past, with Noble Consort Liu protecting him, he was still a little childish. At that time, he only felt that he was intelligent. Ever since his mother died, Little Six grew up day by day. He was strong and weak, and everything made Emperor Epsilon’s heart ache.

It was not easy for the child. His heart was filled with guilt. He kept feeling that his hands were stained with his mother’s blood and could not sleep well.

Xin ‘an King had no objections to Emperor Yu Heng’s arrangement. He only cried and said that Liu Guifei had chosen Sixth Lady Xu back then. This could be considered as fulfilling Liu Guifei’s wish.

These words made Emperor Yu Heng’s eyes turn red again.

That’s right, it just so happened that this Xu Liuniang was favored by Noble Consort Liu. It seemed that it was fate that she had been tormented once and then tormented again. Therefore, he had the heart to praise Sixth Lady Xu and handed the marriage to the Ministry of Rites to report, waiting for the wedding in the spring of the next year. Privately, he had given many gifts to the Xu Manor, and even arranged jobs for Xu Liu Niangzi’s brothers. Xu Dalang, who had originally joined the army as the East Vanquishing General, was even promoted to the position of Grand Marshal.

Although they didn’t get married immediately, they had already created a huge commotion.

Xie Xian kicked the ball back to Emperor Yu Heng and returned to the residence to prepare for his wedding.

Was Xie Xian sincerely giving Emperor Yu Heng advice?

Of course not.

Pan Shuo had a big mouth, especially when it came to gossiping. Although Emperor Yuheng had recently ordered him to build a temple for Imperial Concubine Liu, it was just an errand. As the leader, there were naturally people who would listen to his orders.

Although he wasn’t busy, the people he came into contact with were all kinds of people, and the amount of information he received was even more.

The ladies of the Xi family were always the favorite gossipers. Their appearances were really worth mentioning. Even though Chief Justice Xi was so powerful that he found beautiful wives for his sons, the ladies of the Xi family were like genes that had been kissed by the heavens. They were not neutralized at all and followed the Xi family.

If one were to talk about ordinary looks, they would be considered top-class in the Xi family. Some of them could even be described as ugly.

The males didn’t really matter. The main thing was that the young ladies also looked as they pleased and showed all kinds of filial piety.

Every time the young lady of the Xi family went out, it would cause a sensation.

As for the remaining ones who had not married yet, but had already reached an age, they were all listed as the focus of attention.

This was especially true for the Xi Third Lady who was engaged to Wang Liulang. She could be considered pretty in the Xi family, but Wang Liulang had his arm broken by Xiao Baoxin. She was an existence with a broad heart and a broad body.

The union of these two was like a bolt from the blue lighting up the entire gloomy sky caused by the death of Imperial Concubine Liu. The gossipy people were boiling.

In Pan Shuo’s words, what would the child of these two look like?

He also found out that the second son of Provincial Governor Fan, who was appointed by Fifth Lady Xi, was even more girly than Yuan Chen, but he did not have Yuan Chen’s talent and looks. He loved to follow Yuan Chen around.

The main reason was that Fifth Lady Xi’s son was tall and strong. Pan Shuo had seen him from afar once in the palace. He was at least as tall as him, while Fan Erlang was a weakling who only reached Pan Shuo’s shoulders. With a physical reference, they would know what kind of match they would make if they stood together. Pan Shuo’s jaw almost dropped when he said that.

He laughed at Chief Justice Xi for being strict all his life and choosing his son-in-law and grandson-in-law for all kinds of aesthetic distortions.

When Emperor Yu Heng asked Xie Xian about it, his first thought was to not get involved.

He didn’t want his sister to be involved in the royal family’s battle, but how could he know that Chief Xi would be willing?

If it was a political policy, he would do anything the emperor wanted. However, he did not like to get involved in the marriage of his children. If Xin ‘an Prince and the Crown Prince fought and the outcome was not satisfactory, wouldn’t they be innocently involved?

Emperor Yu Heng could marry whomever he wanted, as long as both parties were willing.

Xie Xian didn’t want to bet the future of an unknown young lady on a political marriage just because of a few words from him, so he directly brought up Tingwei Xi to shut the Emperor’s mouth.

At least, from a political standpoint, it was the best choice to call Xi Tingwei a traitor.

But it was destined to fail.

It was just that he couldn’t reject it in front of Emperor Yu Heng. Using such a method to escape, Xie Xian predicted that there would be no future trouble, and Emperor Yu Heng wouldn’t blame him for this.

Sure enough, in less than two days, the candidate for the Xin ‘an King’s Princess Consort was officially announced. The Xu family was filled with joy, but due to the new funeral of the Xin’ an King’s mother, they did not celebrate.

Pan Shuo came to Xie Xian with a wine pot and drank himself half drunk.

“The emperor has made up his mind to pass the throne to Xin ‘an King. The Empress Dowager is not very happy. Although Empress Wang is a daughter of a noble family, she has always respected the Empress Dowager as her mother. The Crown Prince is the eldest son and has the Wang family as his backer…” “In Xuanhui’s opinion, who will win?”

“That depends on how strong the emperor’s will is.”Xie Xian’s slender and fair fingers picked up the teacup and took a sip. There were some things he did not say.

The combined power of the aristocratic families was terrifying.

However, the royal family was not a pushover. For many years, they had been continuously marrying with various aristocratic families. Not only were the aristocratic families intertwined with each other, but the royal family and aristocratic families were also intertwined.

The Emperor’s determination was reflected in the extent to which he stirred up the interests of the aristocratic families. When it came to changing the crown prince, the first thing was for the aristocratic families to take sides. If the Emperor wanted to overthrow the crown prince that he had personally helped to ascend, if he wanted to pull him down, he would have to pay a painful price. In the previous dynasty, even the aristocratic families could easily abolish the ruler of a country. Although the aristocratic families of Daliang were no longer as glorious as the previous dynasty, they still had the power to fight back.

If Emperor Yu Heng wanted to depose the Crown Prince, then he would be taking advantage of the Wang Clan’s fundamental interests. At the very least, he would need to support an aristocratic family that could contend with the Wang Clan.

This kind of battle between the aristocratic families was likely to shake the foundation of the country. After all, if the two forces really fought, all aspects would become obstacles. It was like two hands fighting each other, hurting the foundation of Daliang. This was also why so many aristocratic families opposed the change of crown prince.

“What does Xuan Hui think of the Crown Prince?” Pan Shuo suddenly asked..
