The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 147 The Little Transparent in the Princess and Prince Consort Story (2)

In the carriage of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion

"Second brother, let me see the jade ring you just saw!" Chu Yuhe said to his younger brother Chu Yuxuan as a matter of course.

"No, the jade ring is mine." Chu Yuxuan made the gesture of covering the brocade bag on his waist again.

"Zijin, don't be so stingy." Lady Anguogong Xu Ruoxi touched her second son's head and said with a smile, "I usually don't see you being like this even though we have so many good things. What happened today?"

Chu Yuxuan thought about it and felt that something seemed wrong, so he took out the jade ring from the brocade bag and held it in his hand: "Brother, take a look!"

Chu Yuhe reached out to take the jade ring.

Chu Yuxuan immediately clenched his hands: "Brother, what are you doing? You said you wanted to see how it worked!"

Chu Yuhe was stunned. He didn't expect that when his brother said he would let him take a look, he would really just take a look and wouldn't even let him touch it.

"Haha! Zirui, your brother said that he was just showing you how to do it, so why did you do it anyway?" Lady Xu Ruoxi, the Duke of Anguo, rarely saw her eldest son being humiliated, so she teased him.

Chu Yuxuan spread his hands again and said, "Brother, look! Don't stretch out your hands again this time!"

Chu Yuhe was no longer interested in checking the jade ring. His only thought now was how to get the jade ring into his own hands. It would be a shame if the Fifth Princess Li Handan's things were kept in the hands of his younger brother.

How will they get along if he marries her in the future?

Chu Yuxuan looked at his brother and found that he no longer wanted to see the jade ring, so he put it back into his brocade bag.

The distance from the palace to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was not short, and Chu Yuxuan soon felt tired. He leaned against his mother and fell asleep.

"I don't know what's wrong with your brother today. He treasures a jade ring so much!" Xu Ruoxi said to her eldest son Chu Yuhe with a smile, and lowered her voice intentionally while speaking, "You too, you usually don't seem to be interested in any treasures, but now you are chasing after the jade ring."

"I just heard that the color is rare, so I wanted to see it." Chu Yuhe lowered his head to hide his eyes.

"You have met the Third Princess and the Fifth Princess. Which princess do you think is more suitable for your brother?" Xu Ruoxi suddenly asked in a serious tone, "In terms of favor, the Fifth Princess is more favored, but she does not have a strong maternal family behind her, and relying on the emperor's favor alone may not last long.

Although you are only eight years old, you have been educated since the age of two, so there are some things I have never avoided telling you."

"Mother, can't I marry a princess?" Chu Yuhe was a little puzzled. He clearly married two princesses in his previous life!

"Stupid, do you think being a royal consort is a good job?" Xu Ruoxi tapped his forehead. "You are the eldest son of our Duke's family. When you turn ten, your father will ask for the title of Crown Prince for you. You will inherit the title and hold real power in the future. How can you marry a princess?

Your brother is different, he is the second son and will not inherit the title, so he can marry a princess to strengthen the relationship between our family and the royal family."

"But!" Chu Yuhe wanted to say something, but his mother Xu Ruoxi interrupted him immediately: "No buts, don't even think about it."

Chu Yuhe knew his mother's temper, so he didn't say anything else.

He began to recall the details of his past life.

In his previous life, he married the fifth princess Li Handan. The apparent explanation was that it was to compensate the third princess Li Danruo for what she owed him. But in fact, it was just a rumor at the beginning that he was going to be engaged to Li Danruo, and the two had never actually made an engagement.

And if you think about it carefully, during the years when he was married to the fifth princess Li Handan, he really had no real power except for being the son-in-law of the princess.

However, his father, Duke Anguo, was in power at the time, so he himself did not pay attention to these things.

So when did he come to power?

What will happen if the third princess Li Dan marries him?

No, that's not right. The third princess Li Danruo was demoted to a county princess because she took the initiative to divorce. So when he married Li Danruo in his previous life, she was no longer a princess, and her princess mansion was confiscated.

All these things formed a clear network of relationships in Chu Yuhe's mind, so the reason why he was able to come to power in his previous life was because he married not a princess but a county lady.

If this is the case, then if he wants to marry Li Handan in this life, there are only two possibilities: either give the position of Crown Prince to his younger brother, or find a way to have Li Handan demoted to a princess like Li Danruo in his previous life.

Chu Yuhe looked at his brother who was sleeping peacefully on his mother. He couldn't give up the title, so there was only one way.
