However, the young prince's situation is different. The Grand Princess is a very enlightened mother-in-law. Although she was able to fight her way out of the harem, she was very tired of the palace intrigues and the power struggles within the household.
Since Prince Jin did not want to take a concubine, she naturally agreed, which would reduce a lot of trouble.
Of course, another point is that the eldest princess, as a woman, has also made many contributions. She does not think that women are any different, so she does not feel that having two granddaughters is a big deal.
But Feng Chenjiu is different. He is the emperor, and he should have three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines. Moreover, he needs the support of powerful families to consolidate his power.
If it weren't for the late empress's personality issues, the emperor emeritus would probably have had far more than just a few concubines.
Furthermore, since the late empress died when he loved her the most, he no longer pursued love and only focused on his career.
When she chose the crown prince, she never dared to hope that Feng Chenjiu would only have her as his woman.
But to be honest, Wan Ge felt really bad when she said those words. After all, she had fallen for him before they got married, so how could she not feel bad saying those words now?
Having been reborn once and having the experience of her previous life, she no longer prioritizes relationships in this life.
But to Wan Ge's utter surprise, Feng Chenjiu got angry.
Feng Chenjiu slammed his hand on the stone table next to him, and the stone table instantly split in two.
Feng Chenjiu pointed a finger at her, his fingertips trembling as if he were furious: "You, what did you say?"
Wan Ge looked bewildered: "Is there a problem?"
In that instant, countless images flashed through Feng Chenjiu's mind, and he instantly sorted out the events of the past few years.
He asked through gritted teeth, "Jiang Wange, have you been using me as a tool all these years? You don't love me at all; you just want me to help your Jiang family find a way out."
Prime Minister Jiang was second only to the emperor, having reached the highest position among civil officials. However, he abdicated after becoming the emperor's father-in-law, but his son did not.
Wan Ge's older brother, being the brother-in-law, is also very capable, no less so than their father, and is rising steadily in rank, now standing in their father's position.
Of course, besides that, my cousin Wan Ge also became a general.
Including Jiang Wanyin's two daughters, because Feng Chenjiu saw that she was worried about her two nieces and didn't want to make her sad, so he directly made them princesses.
Looking back now, it seems that ever since I gave her a reason to marry me, she has been using me.
"Huh?" Wan Ge was completely confused by his words. What was he talking about?
Seeing that she didn't refute him, Feng Chenjiu's eyes immediately reddened: "I knew it, you have nothing to say, right? You've been using me all along, you don't love me at all. No wonder you've never taken the initiative since the villa."
Before their marriage, at the villa, she took the initiative to invite him to soak in the hot springs. Apart from that time, she never took the initiative to do so again.
Wan Ge thought to herself: Is it possible that you didn't even give me a chance to take the initiative?
Wan Ge opened her mouth, but Feng Chenjiu simply flung his sleeve and said, "I'm angry, and I don't want to talk to you right now."
After saying that, he turned to leave, but Wan Ge quickly grabbed his sleeve and hugged him: "Your Majesty doesn't want to choose a concubine, does he?"
Wan Ge seemed to understand what he meant. He didn't seem to have thought about choosing a concubine. He said maybe he just wanted to make her jealous.
