Chapter 1299 Shameless

"In the early morning today, Mu Xiang suggested that His Highness the Crown Prince should establish a concubine, but His Highness beat him up a lot. If the daughter of the Mu family wants to marry into the East Palace, the chances are slim."

Yuan Chong didn't answer, instead he mentioned the court affairs to her, Yuan Wan was stunned for a moment, but soon guessed his deep meaning: "Father wants me to go find Jiu Niang?"

Yuan Chong knew in his heart that with Yuan Wan's status, he could only be Chu Xun's side concubine. Rong Jiu and Chu Xun had a deep relationship. If Rong Jiu could go through it, the chances of Yuan Wan becoming the crown princess would be very high, not to mention When Rong Jiu opened her mouth, Chu Xun would not refute her face and blame the general's mansion.

Yuan Chong looked at her with a satisfied smile: "My Yuan family's daughter is worthy of being the best son in the world."

Yuan Wan said indifferently: "No matter how good your Highness is, it's not what I love, nor what I want."

When Yuan Chong heard this, his face was slightly sullen, and he reprimanded lightly: "Everyone is a lady, if you talk about your love so lightly, what is the upbringing etiquette? If you let outsiders hear it, wouldn't it be a joke that you have no shame?"

"I don't want to follow in my mother's footsteps, and I don't want to live in calculations all day long and become a pawn in my father's struggle for power."

Yuan Wan exposed his scheme nakedly, and Yuan Chong felt a little uneasy on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about women from aristocratic families, they are ordinary people. Which one is not ordered by parents and a matchmaker's words? Between aristocratic families, if you don't rely on Marriage to support each other, where does the century-old clan come from, and where does your honor come from?"

"I grew up in the countryside, and embarrassment is of great use. I can't give you the honor that the General's Mansion wants."

Yuan Zhen is already ruined, and all Yuan Chong's hopes are placed on Yuan Wan, who never thought that she who usually looks weak would dare to disobey him.

Between Yuan Chong's slightly angry brows, there was a deep and cold expression: "What if my father insists on asking you to enter the East Palace?"

"I just want to live according to my heart. I don't care if I'm the daughter of the general's mansion." Yuan Wan was not afraid of the anger on Yuan Chong's face, and asked quietly, "Where does father think the East Palace is?"

Yuan Chong's expression froze, his pupils narrowed slightly: "What do you mean by that?"

Yuan Wan said bluntly: "Jiu Niang once said that His Highness the Crown Prince is a sweet pastry. Everyone wants to take a bite, but they must have that blessing. Father wants the daughter of the General's Mansion to occupy a seat in the East Palace. , then rely on the methods of the General’s Mansion.”

The implication is that Rong Jiu will not help the General's Mansion when Chu Xun establishes a concubine.

Yuan Chong's expression was a little gloomy.

Yuan Wan said again: "The prince's choice of concubine, family background is only second, more important is character and means, father thinks, we sisters, who can win the eyes of His Majesty? Father knows better than anyone else, so he will make friends with the princess mansion." Well, I just want to use my friendship with Jiu Niang to climb up to the crown prince. My father has this scheme, so no matter whether it is the Xiao family's rebellion or the Lingnan rebellion, Jiu Niang has never used the power of the General's Mansion. If so, why should my father rely on it? Do you want Jiu Niang to help the General's Mansion?"

He never revealed his intentions in front of Rong Jiu, but she saw his calculations clearly, the gloomy look in Yuan Chong's eyes faded slowly, and asked: "What else did Princess Jiu tell you? "

"Jiu Niang has always seen father's ambition and Yuan Zhen's ambition clearly. If father doesn't want the General's Mansion to become the second Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, then don't count on the Crown Prince. As for whether the daughter of the Yuan family can enter the East Palace, it depends. The fortune of the general's mansion."

After Yuan Wan finished speaking, she left the study room, the sky was dark, she didn't notice the flickering hem of the clothes among the flowers under the window.

Yuan Zhen hid in the dark, her eyes were gloomy.
