I'll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law
Chapter 148: Ibmls Ch.148 Biological (1)The news that Prince An had spent big bucks on the princess had spread wildly, and soon everyone knew about it, even the forbidden palace.
The emperor had changed into his usual plain outfit and was sitting in the Chui Gong Hall, slightly in a daze.

The emperor waved his hand, changed his sitting posture, and said, “No need.”
After he finished speaking, he sighed: “Time flies. I remember that when I first came to the capital, Prince Jin was only 14 or 15 years old, and Xie Xuanchen was also very strong, but he was just a teenager. I didn’t expect that in the blink of an eye, now they’re all married. Back then Xie Xuanchen was pampered by everyone, and his pride was so high that no one was worthy of his attention, let alone showing his love as a son. He didn’t expect that now, he would go to such lengths for a woman.”
Only then did the eunuch know that the emperor had been thinking about Prince Qiyang just now. Of course, everyone now calls him Prince An. After rehearsing in his mind for a long time, the chief eunuch said: “Princess An and Princess Jin are of the same age. They used to be sisters from the same manor. It’s common for sisters to fight and bicker. It is precisely because they’re close to each other, that’s why they act so.”
The chief eunuch avoided the sensitive topics, he didn’t mention Xie Xuanchen, but chose to talk about Princess An and Princess Jin. No matter how the girls fought, it was all internal matters that could be settled with just one sentence. If the two princes were involved, it would not be that easy.
The emperor always talked about how the two brothers were like friends, and he also said that he treated Xie Xuanchen like his biological son. Hearing the emperor say this, the people below didn’t dare to treat the two princes differently, and praised their relationship.

She is younger than Princess Jin, but is more sensible than her. It’s just a piece of fabric, since Princess An liked it, just let her take it all. What’s the big deal, is it worth it for Princess Jin to bid for such a high price, and deliberately fight for it with her sister-in-law? In the end, it was her sister-in-law that apologized to them and personally sent the fabric to resolve the issue.”
Upon hearing what the emperor had said, it seemed that he was very dissatisfied with Princess Jin’s behavior. The chief eunuch said that this was actually nothing much, which princess in the palace won’t compare themselves with the others? Sometimes with just the wrong sentence, or an incident, it was common for them to fight each other with money, it’s a very common thing.
What’s more, Jiang Mingwei is the daughter-in-law of the Empress’s first son, it’s just a piece of brocade. What’s so great about it? However, coincidence can be a very scary thing, Princess Jin’s usual behavior was fine, but it just so happens that this time, she had striked one of the emperor’s taboos, how unlucky of her.
What the emperor cares about is definitely not Jiang Mingwei fighting with someone using her wealth. What he cares about is that Jiang Mingwei was going against the An Manor. The emperor always said that they are a big family. So, Jiang Mingwei, who created drama with Xie Xuanchen’s princesses, and she didn’t even show her open-mindedness towards the whole situation. This embarrassed the emperor.
The emperor’s tone was quite dissatisfied with Princess Jin, and the eunuch did not dare to speak up. Prince Jin was the prince with the highest power in the palace, and even the former eunuch dare not offend him. The eunuch paused and said euphemistically: “Official, this just shows that you have taught them well, and your juniors are filial and respectful. As Princess An, being the elder, gave up her treasured items to her junior, and Princess Jin also gave her a generous gift in return. Isn’t this proving their courtesy and modesty?”
The emperor didn’t say anything. After a while, he nodded and said: “You’re right. Instruction knows no class distinction. The most important thing for the younger generation in the family is to guide them to be courteous and modest. Princess An did a good job, she deserves a reward.”
