Chapter 1184 Why Not Change the Choice of Princess Consort?

"Your Majesty, Han'er is not young anymore. You must want to hold your great-grandchild, right? Why isn't Han'er married yet?"

"Yes, Han'er, your cousins ​​are all married and have children. Why don't you hurry up and let your grandfather hold his great-grandson? Is it because that Miss Qiao is unwilling to get married? Why don't you take a few concubines first to have more children? That way, your grandfather can hold his great-grandson as soon as possible."

This is a scheme to place a concubine in his life.

After all, in their view, Mo Beihan, as the only descendant of the current emperor, is bound to inherit the throne. The current concubine will become a Noble Consort or Imperial Noble Consort, and may even replace the principal wife as empress.

"What? Han'er is the future emperor, and that village girl surnamed Qiao is unwilling to marry him? Then why don't we find another candidate for the princess consort? Your Majesty, my niece is stunningly beautiful, with graceful and elegant manners, truly possessing the demeanor of a lady from a noble family, perhaps..."

This is someone who directly wants to seize the position of the principal wife.

Others also chimed in, each recommending their preferred young ladies.

Not only did some aspire to be the principal wife or secondary wife, but they even coveted the positions of concubine or maidservant.

Anyway, as long as you can put people around Mo Beihan, you'll have a chance to win his heart.

Even if she can't win his heart, she still has the chance to have his child, who will become a prince and be able to compete for the throne!

If the prince born to the person they recommended were to ascend the throne, wouldn't they be able to regain power?

It must be said that these people have a long-term vision. The emperor is still vigorous in his old age, and they have already thought about the great-grandson of the emperor vying for power.

Although Mo Beihan and Qiao Ran's wedding date has been set and both sides are preparing for the wedding.

However, because it was not done in a grand manner, the royal relatives who came from their various fiefdoms to attend the royal family banquet had not yet received any news.

Meanwhile, the imperial relatives in the capital, driven by their own selfish motives, failed to remind their exiled relatives, lest the exiled relatives benefit and jeopardize their own interests.

Thus, two factions emerged at the banquet.

One group consisted of the silent members of the imperial family in the capital, while the other group consisted of members of the imperial family who had rushed back to the capital from other places.

Those who eagerly recommended candidates for Princess Consort, Concubine, and other concubines and maids were the relatives who had returned from other places.

Emperor Jingwu, seated at the head of the table, remained silent and did not immediately announce the marriage. He knew that his grandson could handle these troublesome relatives.

These people's thoughts are all blatantly obvious; who could possibly not see them?

Since they have such big ambitions, let Han'er give them a good crackdown, so they won't waste their good lives and have to covet things they shouldn't have.

Mo Beihan's face grew increasingly grim, turning as black as the bottom of a pot.

These people are really meddling in other people's business. When did their marriage become a matter for these irrelevant people to interfere with?

He slammed his wine glass down with a loud bang, silencing the noise in the hall and drawing everyone's attention.

Mo Beihan's cold voice echoed in the silent hall:

"Are you uncles tired of your comfortable and leisurely lives and want to help Grandfather with some of the government affairs? I heard that Laishui County suffered a severe drought this year, followed by floods, and recently there has been a snowstorm. Why don't you uncles go and provide disaster relief?"

The relatives who had been scrambling to step forward just moments before suddenly looked embarrassed and dared not speak up again.

How poor Laishui County is, everyone in Dayue knows.

Disaster relief is an arduous task, and it can also be life-threatening.

It is said that bad people come from poor and remote areas. The area has suffered continuous disasters, and the people are full of complaints. If they go to provide disaster relief, wouldn't they be devoured alive by those resentful people?

Moreover, if the disaster area is not handled properly, there will definitely be an epidemic. They don't want to go there and never return, leaving behind great wealth and honor that they cannot enjoy.
