A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

243 Angry

“Yes, there are some things that it’s more appropriate for me to talk to you about.” The emperor rubbed his nose. Thinking of the letter he had received today, the emperor felt excited.

“It’s a good thing, a good thing! Take a look.” The emperor handed the letter Yuan Hui had written to Jiang Huan.

Jiang Huan took a look and saw that the letter was about a marriage partner from Russia. She was also a princess called Princess Mingyue. They mentioned that they wanted her to marry the heir of Prince Jin.

“Imperial Brother! What kind of joke is this? What kind of good thing is this?” Jiang Huan placed the letter on the emperor’s desk. He suppressed the anger in his heart.

From the looks of it, the emperor clearly wanted to force Jiang Ying to marry the princess of Russia.

“I’m not joking. I’m serious! Think about it. Russia has so much dowry. This can make up for the losses of our Great Yun Nation’s war. Anyway, she’s a woman. If you don’t like her, just marry her, leave her alone and feed her.”

The emperor counted how many benefits he could get from selling Jiang Ying. Jiang Huan’s face was so dark that water could drip from it. The emperor did not know at all and kept talking.

“Imperial Brother!” Jiang Huan interrupted the emperor. “My child is like me. He’s devoted to relationships. It’s impossible for him to marry the princess of Russia.”

“Hey, it doesn’t matter if he’s loyal. If he likes Ning Yue, so be it. I’m talking about marrying the princess of Russia. It doesn’t conflict with feelings!” the emperor said.

“How is it unrelated? He’s devoted to his feelings, be it his body or his heart. Since he has set his mind on Ning Yue, he can only marry her!” Jiang Huan said.

He was furious with the emperor’s remark. What did he mean by no conflict? There was a huge conflict, okay?

Although he did not interact much with Ning Yue, he knew her well. Ning Yue had a strong personality. If Jiang Ying were to marry someone else, she would rather leave.

Besides, didn’t he know his son? His son wouldn’t be willing to marry a woman other than Ning Yue.

“Why are you so old-fashioned? Isn’t it good to marry two women? You can go wherever you want when you’re upset. Ning Yue is a magnanimous child. She’ll definitely agree,” the emperor said.

Jiang Huan was about to lose control of the anger in his heart and explode at the emperor. He took a few deep breaths and barely held it in.

“Emperor, you can’t say it like this. It’s true that Ning Yue is magnanimous, but women are stingy in this aspect. No one is willing to let their husband have a few women at the same time,” Jiang Huan said.

“Who said that? Look at how magnanimous the Empress is. She’s even helping me get concubines!” the emperor said disapprovingly.

“The empress is magnanimous?” Jiang Huan smiled. “The empress has no choice but to be magnanimous. As the empress, and the master of the harem, her first task is to be virtuous. Virtuousness is all an act. When Imperial Sister-in-law sees you going to the other concubines, she must be very sad. However, because she’s the empress, she has to show magnanimity.”

The emperor was stunned. This was the first time he had heard such comments. Was the empress pretending to be virtuous? Was there really no woman who would be willing to share a husband with others? But if the empress didn’t like it, why didn’t she say so?

“It seems that Brother doesn’t know his wife well. My wife doesn’t want me to marry another woman. Of course, I’m also unwilling to marry a woman other than my wife.”

Hearing Jiang Huan’s words, the emperor fell silent. However, the dowry given by Russia was really too high.

With this dowry, the Great Yun Nation could develop many businesses and the national treasury could be filled more. He did not want to give it up at all!

“Imperial Brother, we can earn more money if we lose it. Can you bear to break up my son’s good marriage?” Jiang Huan asked again.

The emperor was still silent. He didn’t know what to choose.

“Brother, please think about it carefully. If you really force Jiang Ying to marry the princess of Russia, I think he will definitely give up his identity as the heir of Prince Jin and leave with Ning Yue.”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the meeting hall. Jiang Huan opened the door and saw that the crown prince had arrived.

He had an anxious expression. After greeting Jiang Huan, he came to the emperor.

“Father, have you read the letter from Russia?” the Crown Prince asked him.

The emperor’s expression darkened as he asked coldly, “Is the crown prince questioning me?”

“I wouldn’t dare. I just want to ask Father, have you seen the letter from the Emperor of Russia?” The Crown Prince said with his head lowered.

“So what if I did?” the emperor retorted.
