Chapter 149 Mentally not normal
His Majesty was recovering little by little, and when he was fully recovered, the Second Prince fled with his wife and children, leaving the Fourth Prince with his father.

The fourth prince stood there expressionlessly, waiting for his father's reprimand, with a thousand divine beasts running around in his heart.

No wonder my second brother took his men away. My father saw that he was not mentally normal.

Have you ever seen someone pulling his son aside and asking him when he usurped the throne?
This made him feel like it was a trap.

"You and your second brother should discuss who will succeed the throne. It's okay to usurp the throne. I want to take your mother and consort to a beautiful place to retire in old age!"

The emperor was discussing this with him seriously!

This incident made him think a lot. What's so good about being an emperor? He was worried about being usurped and assassinated every day. This time, he almost got himself killed.

The fourth prince looked at his father with a numb expression, "Father, you are still young and can still work for another ten or eight years."

"Get lost. Are you still working for another ten years? I don't care. You and the second brother must choose one to inherit this position!"

Second brother, no wonder you ran away, I wanted to run away too.

"Father, how about you consider your uncle?"

He spoke cautiously, as a test to see whether his father really wanted to abdicate or was just pretending.

His Majesty was silent for a moment, and then he really thought about it, "Your uncle prefers to fight on the battlefield, so it's a bit difficult for him to inherit the throne. This incident didn't make him rebel, so it seems that he really doesn't have any intentions!"

The Fourth Prince looked at his father in shock. Could it be that his father had really thought about it?

It's not like he hadn't considered that position before, but after all, he had several older brothers and the hope was slim. If his father really agreed, it might be feasible.

I have to say, he was a little moved.

But he couldn't show it on the surface and still refused sternly.

After arguing for a while, the Fourth Prince fled in panic.

The emperor watched the people leave and his face calmed down. Prince Han walked out from the inner room and looked at his elder brother.

His elder brother, the emperor, did have the intention of abdicating, but what he really cared about was not the two of them, but the former crown prince.

King Han smiled and teased, "Why, neither of these two are the heirs you are satisfied with?"

The emperor rolled his eyes at him. "What do you think? The second son is good at maintaining the status quo, but he is actually very timid. I'm afraid he will be controlled by the ministers. Besides, the crown prince back then..."

The prince's affair was a thorn in his heart. He knew that the second and third brothers were involved, but he couldn't kill the second brother.

Not to mention the fourth brother, who has ambition and ability, but without help from his mother's family, it will be difficult for him to succeed by relying solely on marriage.

As for why the second son left, the emperor actually knew it in his heart, because the second son wanted to give himself some buffer time.

Even though he cooperated very well with the Queen, there was still hatred for the murder of her son. What if he was tricked?
Anyway, it is impossible for my father to abdicate immediately. There is still time and we can plan slowly.

The emperor looked at Prince Han, who always had a calm expression. He once regarded Prince Han as the biggest threat and even wanted to get rid of him many times, but the prince had no intention of usurping the throne.

If he had taken this opportunity to get rid of the emperor, it would have been easy for him to ascend to the throne, but King Han did not do so.

At this time, the emperor felt that Prince Han really had no intention of ascending to the throne.

"Hey, if there were no other options, I wouldn't choose between the second and fourth brothers."

King Han wasn't sure whether this was true or not, so he decided not to respond.

The two were silent for a moment, and the emperor felt deeply moved. It had been a long time since they had such a calm conversation.

"By the way, it's time to prepare for your relationship with Mu Qingqing. Mu Qingqing is nineteen this year and has been waiting for you for several years."

"Pick a good day and get married after the New Year. Call back General Mu and the two major generals."

Prince Han raised his head suddenly, with surprise in his eyes, "Brother, are you serious? You won't regret it?"

The emperor glared at me, "Why waste your words? You'll regret it if you ask me again."

Prince Han grabbed his brother's arm and said, "Brother, you can't regret it. When you were my age, you already had older brothers and sisters, but I was still alone. You can't bear it, right?" The emperor said, "..."

Is it too late for me to regret now?

After receiving the positive news, King Han left happily. He wanted to tell Qingqing.

At the same time, the imperial edict ordering the three generals of the Mu Mansion to return to Beijing was also issued.

At this time, Mu Qingqing was teaching An An to read. She put cards with words on them in front of An An and taught him how to read and write.

An An is very smart and can learn something after being taught twice, but he refuses to try to speak.

When King Han jumped in from the courtyard wall, he saw such a heartwarming scene.

An An sat in Mu Qingqing's arms, looking up at Mu Qingqing from time to time. Mu Qingqing gently held him in her arms, like a mother and daughter.

Seeing Prince Han, several maids and Master Lu were about to pay their respects, but Prince Han waved his hand and they retreated.

Mu Qingqing's ears moved, and she turned around and saw King Han standing there.

"Han Chen is here, hurry up and do it, I'm teaching An An to read!"

An An also saw King Han and bowed to him, looking very polite.

King Han patted his head, "An An is so good."

"Hanchen, why are you here at this time?"

Prince Han: "I just came from my brother. He promised that we can get married next year."

He chuckled and scratched his hair, looking a little embarrassed like a young boy.

Mu Qingqing turned around suddenly and looked at him in disbelief, "Are you telling the truth?"

Her heart was pounding and her face was flushed. She couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster at the thought of marrying Han Chen.

"How could His Majesty agree to this? Is there some conspiracy?"

She couldn't help but think the worst.

Prince Han shook his head. "This time it's true. If my brother wasn't dissatisfied with the Second and Fourth Princes, he would have wanted to abdicate."

The change in the emperor's brother was obvious, especially in his attitude towards him. He used to be on guard and even wanted to kill him.

Mu Qingqing was silent. "Maybe after experiencing life and death, I have become indifferent to some things!"

Prince Han nodded, "In order to prevent my brother from changing his mind, I will personally visit you in two days to discuss the wedding date. By the way, my brother has sent the imperial edict to your father and brother, so we will definitely be able to catch up with our wedding date!"

Prince Han was very quick and arrived at the Mu Mansion two days later with gifts and an agreed date.

Mrs. Mu didn't expect it to happen so soon, but fortunately she was prepared.

They did not need to prepare their own wedding gown and phoenix crown, as there were regulations for this. The rest of the dowry had to be carefully selected and made sure to be the best.

Mu Qingqing is the principal wife of Prince Han, and her official dowry and betrothal gifts are both 48 loads.

The date was set for April after the New Year. Mu Qingqing became a bride-to-be and had a reason not to attend the palace banquet.

When Chu Manman came to see her, she was six months pregnant.

Mu Qingqing supported her carefully, "You really are, your belly is so big now, you should be more careful, don't run over here deliberately."

Chu Manman chuckled, "I just miss you!"

After she got married, she had a very good relationship with her husband, and her parents-in-law were also nice to her. Now that she has a child, she can say that her life is complete.

There has been no news since cousin Song got married, but the couple seems to be having a good relationship.
