Chapter 978 - 825, Wan Family’s Old Residence
The Emperor had directly stripped Xiao Yeyang of his position, and thus the Empress Dowager couldn’t forcefully nominate a match for him anymore.
As a consequence, the prospect of the fifth daughter from the Earl Zhaode Residence and the fourth daughter from the Earl Yongqing Residence entering the Prince Residence also dissipated without further development.
For the Empress Dowager, this was of no concern; in her view, it was a blessing for those families to have caught her eye and to be used by her. As for the future marital prospects of the bastard daughters from both families, that was no longer her concern.
Earl Zhaode Residence.
Earl Zhaode looked at his weeping bastard daughter kneeling on the floor with great irritation and dissatisfaction in his eyes as he turned to Madam Han, "I told you from the beginning not to agree to the Jiang Family’s proposal, but you took my words as if they were wind passing by your ears."
Madam Han defended herself, "As soon as the Jiang Family came, they said it was the Empress Dowager’s will. How could I refuse? Dare I refuse?"
Earl Zhaode glared at Madam Han, "I see you never actually wanted to refuse, did you?"
Madam Han replied, "Why do you think I did this? Isn’t it for the Earl Residence? Although you are still an earl, the title won’t pass down to our son. Naturally, I have to plan for him."
The Jiang Family said that as long as a bastard daughter was married off, they would arrange a new position for her son. How could she not agree?
Earl Zhaode felt weary, "When you agreed, did you ever think about Han Xinran? How will she establish herself in the Yan Family from now on?"
