The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 551 - 480: The Wei Family Arrives (Part 2)
When Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang returned, they immediately became the focus of everyone’s attention.
"Mother, what’s going on here?"
Under the focused gazes of the crowd, Yuan Bao went to the side of the Eldest Princess and quietly spoke.
"It’s about the unification of the kingdom!"
The Eldest Princess replied softly.
"Do they all know?"
"They know!"
"..."
Upon hearing the Eldest Princess’s words, Yuan Bao instantly did not know what to say.
This matter, even her highly skilled master has not given her a definite answer, so how did the Wei Family already come looking?
"Don’t worry, if there’s a problem, Mother will help you bear it!"
Seeing Yuan Bao’s troubled look, the Eldest Princess smiled instead, thinking to herself, after all, she’s still a child, even if she’s clever, she has experienced too little, ultimately lacking a bit.
Yuan Bao had no idea her own mother-in-law held a low opinion of her.
Of course, Yuan Bao didn’t mind being underestimated by her own mother-in-law because, in this way, she could save a lot of trouble.
"Go, eat first, and talk after you’re full!"
The Eldest Princess patted Yuan Bao’s hand, sending her away.
On the other side, Wei Wushang was also sent off by Wei Dingjiang.
No matter why the Wei Family came, with elders here, it was naturally not Wei Wushang and Yuan Bao’s place to directly face these members of the Wei Family.
The Wei Family was once harmonious and united.
But because of the Empress Dowager’s fuss, and a calculation against her by the Eldest Princess’s own brother, the Eldest Princess’ position in the Wei Family became somewhat awkward.
However, this time, because of the unification of the kingdom, the Eldest Princess, as Yuan Bao’s mother-in-law, saw her status in the Wei Family change again.
...
"Uncle Wushang, what do you think they’re here for?"
"Could it be that they all know I want Xiao Wu to become emperor?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Far from the crowd, Yuan Bao quietly murmured to Wei Wushang.
"I estimate that they don’t know!"
"Then what are they here for?"
"Of course, to build connections!"
Wei Wushang smiled, "Don’t forget, your master is our Daxia’s Protector. The Protectors of the Three Kingdoms have reached a consensus for unification. By then, there will be only one emperor in the world!"
"We want to leave, but they might not want to leave!"
"That emperor’s position, some people are indeed coveting it!"
The throne Yuan Yindi didn’t care about, countless people in the world were longing for.
After all, this throne is the throne of the unification of the kingdom.
Being the sovereign who unifies the realm will definitely be remembered in history and passed down for generations.
With power and reputation, would anyone not want such a position?
If she didn’t know Yuan Yindi didn’t want it, Yuan Bao would really think everyone wanted to be emperor.
"This way, when they learn the truth, won’t they talk behind our backs?"
After all, Yuan Bao was married to Wei Wushang.
At this time, the principle is to follow your husband, whether it’s a chicken or a dog.
She married into the Wei Family, meaning she was a Wei Family woman, was part of the Wei Family, and should consider the Wei Family’s interests in everything. But now, Yuan Bao wants to give the throne to Yuan Yindi, such a woman who doesn’t consider her husband’s family but always thinks about her mother’s family will be dealt with in her husband’s family.
"Let them talk!"
"Besides, we are doing it for their own good!"
After the constitutional monarchy, the power in the country is essentially no longer in the hands of the royal family. The royal family, then, is only symbolic, and to seize power, they still have to rely on their own abilities.
And this, for the Wei Family, is just right.
The Wei Family holds a very special position in Daxia.
In order to restrain and oversee the royal family, the Wei Family members must strive to improve themselves.
Such a Wei Family, in a constitutional era, will absolutely have a great use for their talents.
With Wei Wushang’s explanation, Yuan Bao said no more.
Indeed, they are doing it for their own good.
Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang quickly finished breakfast, tidied up briefly, and then came out again to face the Wei Family members.
Mrs. Wei Shen had the best relationship with Yuan Bao, as she was once Yuan Bao’s godmother.
Later that godmother relationship ended because Yuan Bao married Wei Wushang.
After all, Wei Shiyu and Wei Wushang were of the same generation.
As for how Yuan Bao and Mrs. Wei Shen interacted in private, that was another matter.
When the Wei Family held resentment toward the Eldest Princess, Mrs. Wei Shen did not particularly target the Eldest Princess, but under the pressure from her mother-in-law, she had to reduce her interactions with the Eldest Princess and Yuan Bao.
