Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 652
My name is Liang Quan, nicknamed Tuantuan, the Ninth Prince of the Daqian Dynasty. When I was ten years old, I was named the crown prince and lived in the East Palace.

Of course, the nickname Tuantuan, since I was named the crown prince, under my strong protest, the emperor father and the empress basically don't call it that anymore.

I have a twin sister, Liang Concubine, whose nickname is Yuanyuan. She was later named Princess Jingle, and she is the most beloved daughter of my father.

After Yuanyuan got married, she got engaged and was given the Princess Mansion, and she was officially married that year.

In order to prevent the monopoly of foreign relatives, the emperor had long ago ordered that the son-in-law should be selected from ordinary families.

For example, the fifth princess married a scholar.

It's just that after becoming a son-in-law, he can't continue to take the entrance examination, and there is no hope of official career in this life.

The son-in-law is also considered to be from a scholarly family. Although he has fallen, his character and appearance are not bad, but his talents are limited, and everyone in the family is mediocre. Shangzhu can be regarded as a way out.

Even if the previous abolishment comes back to life, there is nothing wrong with the marriage of the fifth princess.

The fourth and seventh princesses married similar families to the fifth princess, and the emperor treated them impartially.

But regarding Yuanyuan's marriage, although the emperor treats Yuanyuan equally on the surface, he is deeply troubled secretly.

Because the father didn't want to marry off his precious daughter at all, in fact, not to mention the father, even his elder brother would not be willing.

However, Yuanyuan was still married after all.

As for the son-in-law, from my elder brother's point of view, it's not bad at all.

The son-in-law was born in a family and was very talented, but he did not take part in the imperial examinations, did not enter the official career, and was obsessed with calligraphy and painting all day long. Moreover, his parents died when he was young. Later, his clansmen kicked him out of the clan in order to seize his family property, and suffered a lot. Fortunately, he has a good teacher, talented and hardworking, excellent in calligraphy and painting, and famous in the capital at a young age, he can be described as a thousand gold.

Coupled with his handsome appearance, no matter it is a girl in a boudoir or a courtesan, everyone admires him very much.

Fortunately, he is a stickler, except for writing and painting, he is not contaminated with matters between men and women.Even Yuanyuan has heard of his name and is very fond of his calligraphy and paintings.

Because of this, he came into the sight of the father.

For his most beloved daughter, the royal father is naturally very cautious.

After a lot of investigation and testing, and seeing that the two were very interested in each other, the emperor gave them a marriage.

After Yuanyuan got married, she lived a very happy life. Every day, she talked about poetry and paintings with her son-in-law, and her husband and wife sang along.

In addition, I have a younger brother, Liang Li, nicknamed Maomao. He is eight years younger than us. He is white and fat. Moreover, he has a good temper and rarely cries. In fact, I think he is too lazy. , I don't even bother to cry.

Therefore, Yuanyuan and I have been working hard to make him cry, but both the father and the queen love him, and I have to do it quietly if I want to bully him.It's a pity, even so, as the little guy grew up, he became more and more calm, and even learned to put eye drops on him without any trace, and he was scolded a few times, It's getting less and less cute.

I once heard rumors that my younger brother was a bit stupid and slow to react. If you are stupid, what is smart?
If you ask me, it's not stupid at all, it's lazy.Maybe he was lazy to death in his previous life.

Even so, the royal father and the queen mother still doted on him very much and didn't stick to him at all.Looking at my heavy schoolwork and tasks, it is simply too unreasonable.

But I know, this is my responsibility, who made me the prince?
Although I complain occasionally, I actually enjoy it. I want to be a good prince and become a good emperor like my father in the future. If this is the case, of course I can't be as easy as my younger siblings.

At the age of 17, I married the princess.

The Crown Princess was born in Qingliu, not a noble family.

The princess is very good. After all, she was selected out of thousands of choices. No matter which aspect she can pick, she is well-educated, dignified and generous, and gentle. , I often ask the queen mother and his opinion on everything, go to the queen mother every day to say hello, and treat the queen mother very respectfully and filially.

To say, the only bad thing is that she is too well-behaved and organized, and everything she does is like a routine. After a long time, she always feels a sense of distance and can't get close.As for the gentle smile on his face, the curvature didn't change.

Of course, the flaws do not conceal the virtues.

Overall, I am quite satisfied with this princess.It's just a pity that I didn't have the luck of my father after all.

I originally intended to follow the example of my father and mother and love the crown princess for the rest of my life. As long as the crown princess gave birth to an heir, I would also be willing to guard her and live with her for the rest of my life.

Unfortunately, she didn't think so.

When the Crown Princess was pregnant, because there were no other concubines in the East Palace, I received the servant girl arranged by the Crown Princess.

When I went to ask the princess, she was still very surprised, and she plausibly said that arranging a room for her husband is what a regular wife should do. If I don't accept it, people will say that she, the princess, is jealous. Narrow-minded can no longer tolerate people.

When I heard this, I was immediately displeased. Could it be that in her heart, the queen mother is that kind of jealous and narrow-minded woman?
I was dissatisfied with her for the first time.

In the end, I still didn't allow the woman arranged by the princess to attend the bed, so I turned around and went to the study.

I'm the prince, and I won't force myself to touch a woman I don't like for the sake of the prince's concubine's face.

Unexpectedly, the next day, the crown princess went to her mother's place to cry and plead guilty.

Although I didn't inquire about it, I can also imagine the face of my mother at that time.

The queen mother is afraid that she can't understand the thoughts of the crown princess.

The queen mother has been telling me that it is not easy for women to survive in this era, so let me treat the princess better, and I also want to live a good life with her, but she doesn't appreciate it.
