598. The Puppet Emperor

"Oh? For your own good?" Wen Ranran laughed disdainfully, picked up the tea served by the maid at hand, and took a sip.

"Although I have just arrived in Lan Kingdom, after today's banquet, do you think that among the ministers sitting down, who would want to pay attention to you as a puppet emperor? Their eyes are only looking at the Prime Minister!"

Jiang An's expression changed and he clenched his fists involuntarily.

The Lan Kingdom began with the Rebellion of the Five Kingdoms. My father had been sitting on the throne for nearly forty years. When he was young, he also made conquests here and there.

However, the consequence of successive years of war is that now only Jiang He and him are left among the five sons. Now that Jiang He is dead, he is the only one who can inherit the throne.

He was the youngest son of his father, who had a son at that time. He liked him very much, but he was also indulgent, so that he was jealous of his elder brother since he was a child.

I thought that after my eldest brother was gone, my mother and uncle would smoothly hand over the power of the country to him, but I didn't expect that my uncle now had no intention of delegating power to him.

He was dissatisfied, and once told his mother about this matter, but she just said that he was still young and did not want him to get involved in these things.

However, he is a majestic monarch of a country, can this be called meddling?!

He is a playboy and indulgent, but he is not stupid.

Everyone could see that the prime minister was coercing the emperor to order the officials, but no one dared to say anything for fear that if he said one more word, they would be divided.

Although he never showed anything, he was actually very dissatisfied with his uncle's behavior.

The Wen Ranran in front of her was her own imperial sister who was living abroad.

Although they have not met her for so many years, she transformed as soon as she came back and became a princess, and she is very likely to be the future queen of Rongguo.

Now Lan Guo has provoked Rong Guo, but... if he stands on Wen Ranran's side, then when he succeeds to the throne in the future, he will not only have great power, but Rong Guo can also be stabilized.

At least, his throne will not be threatened by the 200,000 troops outside.

The more Jiang An thought about it, the more he thought it was feasible.

"What do you mean, Sister Huang?"

Looking at Jiang An's expression, Wen Ranran knew that Jiang An had taken the bait, and couldn't help but smile.

"Although I am now the Wen family's daughter, Emperor Rongcheng is afraid of the Wen family, and my position as princess is not very secure. However, if I marry Xia Lishuang as a princess in the future, it will be different.

.”

Jiang An was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

Since both parties have intertwined interests, then...actually there is no need to be so tit-for-tat.

"Let Jiang Shu go for the next few days and hide what happened tonight for me. I will clean up the matter for you, Prime Minister of the DPRK, and keep it safe so that the throne of the emperor's younger brother can be secure. What do you think?"

Wen Ranran Mingren didn't say any secret words and directly laid out the conditions.

"I can even convince my father. After all, I have just gone to see my father. My father is very happy about my return. If my father is supporting me, then the emperor's brother will definitely be the best in the future.

I won’t be pressured by powerful ministers!”

Jiang An was stunned and couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Why should I trust you?"

"Believe it or not, we have intertwined interests, and we won't come here with those false ideas! We won't use so-called family ties to kidnap you and make you a puppet emperor, right?"

Wen Ranran rolled her eyes and said unceremoniously.

Jiang An pondered for a while and nodded doubtfully.

"As for the future, I will marry in Rongguo, and Languo will be your world. However, you need to hide this matter from your mother. After all, her relationship with the prime minister may lead to bad things!"

Wen Ranran's eyes were gloomy, like a seductive snake spitting out a message.

Jiang An couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Then you... keep your word?"

"One word!" Wen Ranran smiled and put down the tea cup.
