Rebirth of the General's Granddaughter Chapter 76.1 Anw.a.n.gfei's Intentions [2]
When the previous Emperor died, if An w.a.n.g was nottoo young and had no foundation to sit on the throne, the Emperor would likelyhave been An w.a.n.g.
Shangguan Yixuan was very talented. In addition tobeing handsome, he was skilled in both civil and martial areas. Other than OldGeneral Mu, he was the second person in Great Yan who repeatedly had militarymerits.
His fiefdom was in the northern part of Great Yan,Peicheng. Further north was the territory of the Xiongnus.
If An w.a.n.g wasn't guarding the north, the Xiongnuswould have crossed into Peicheng and invaded the Central Plains. Therefore, theEmperor heavily relied on this younger brother. But the Emperor suppressed him,was afraid of him, and was vigilant towards him. He was afraid he and An w.a.n.gwould fall out one day and rebel. This was the reason the Emperor particularlyrelied on Old General Mu.
The Emperor could not be completely at ease with hisbiological younger brother because it was possible he could stab him a few times.
It could be seen that being the Emperor wasn't soeasy. He was scared and on edge all day, afraid of this and that. He even had adagger under his pillow when he slept.
An w.a.n.g, Yang Yunchang, was the third Digranddaughter of Old Prime Minister Yang, who had partic.i.p.ated in threegenerations of imperial courts. She was very charming and had two dimples whenshe smiled.
She looked pretty, but her words concealed daggers.If one was careless, she could stab one b.l.o.o.d.y.
Upon entering the city, Old Prime Minister Yangrepeatedly ordered her to have good relations with Old General Mu's family. Shewas to pay attention to girls of appropriate ages. s.h.i.+zi [heir to n.o.ble t.i.tle]Shangguan LingRan was seventeen years old this year and still had not married.
If they became in-laws with the Mu family, even ifthe Emperor wanted to touch An w.a.n.g, he would have to re-consider.
And no matter how much he favored the Su Cefei [side consort or concubine] the Emperor bestowed on him or liked her son, Shangguan Liran, he would not openly dare to favor them. Nor would he dare to publicly take the s.h.i.+zi t.i.tle away from Shangguan LingRan.
