[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life
Chapter 1: Lost in the book
"Madam, why are you so stubborn? The Second Master is also the legitimate son of the Yun family and has the right to inherit the Marquisate. Why are you trying to stop me?
"I know that the Second Master is not your biological son, but who made the Marquis regard the Second Master as his legitimate son?
"Don't you just want your youngest son to inherit the mansion? But who made him not the eldest?
"Oh, I almost forgot, Madam did have a legitimate eldest son who was the heir of the Marquisate. It's a pity that he died early! Hahaha!"
As soon as Rong Enqing came to her senses, she saw a woman in ancient costume standing in front of her, speaking to her in a mocking and sarcastic tone.
Who is this woman?
Where is she? What's going on now? Isn't she dead? She just saw her body being taken away by an ambulance, and the voices around her talking about her short life were still echoing in her ears.
Rong Enqing was a little confused for a moment, but before she could figure out the situation, the woman in front of her pointed at her nose and threatened her, "I advise Madam to be sensible and hand over the Marquis's seal as soon as possible, and submit a petition for sealing as soon as possible so that the heir to the Marquis's mansion can be decided as soon as possible.
“Oh, don’t say that Madam still can’t see the situation clearly!
"My son is the second son recognized by the Yun family, and his wife is the daughter of the Minister of Rites! Now, even the elders of the family are on my son's side. I want to ask you, what can your youngest son use to compete with my son for the Marquis' Mansion?
"It's not that I look down on you, Madam. The Marquis has been dead for three years. If you were capable, you would have made your youngest son the Marquis long ago. Why did you have to wait until now?
"I'm not afraid to tell you that if you don't hand over the Marquis' seal today and don't agree to my son inheriting the Marquis' Mansion, the Minister will go to the court tomorrow and ask the emperor to issue an order to confer the title of Shun'an Marquis on my son. By then... humph!"
The threat is self-evident.
Faced with the aggressive woman, Rong Enqing subconsciously stretched out his left hand to grab the woman's fingers and forced them back. The woman screamed "Ah!" Without waiting for the woman to move, Rong Enqing's right hand had already swung out and slapped the arrogant woman hard in the face.
The woman obviously didn't expect Rong Enqing, who had been silent and intimidated by her momentum, to suddenly take action. After Rong Enqing let go, she took two steps back and fell to the ground, looking up at Rong Enqing with fear and anger in her eyes, and deep in her eyes there was hatred that was almost tangible.
It was obvious that she was the Marquis' true love, but because of her poor background, she could only become a concubine.
As the son of a marquis, Rong's eldest son was granted the title of Marquis's son when he was born. However, it was only after she begged and pleaded that her eldest son was registered under the name of Rong and became a legitimate son.
Fortunately, God was merciful. Rong's eldest son died outside the capital on business eight years ago, which gave her son the opportunity to inherit the marquis's mansion.
But Rong tried every means to prevent it, and was determined to make her youngest son the heir. The two sides were deadlocked, and until the Marquis passed away three years ago, they were unable to decide on the heir to the Marquisate. This dispute has continued to this day.
However, the three-year mourning period is about to end, and this dispute over the marquisate should also have a result.
Thinking of the promise her son had received from several elders yesterday, as well as the news her daughter-in-law Song brought back from her parents' home, the woman couldn't help but look pleased.
She was just waiting to see how the high and mighty Rong family would be brought down to earth and suffer a fate worse than death!
In a flash, the woman's mind was in turmoil.
And Rong Enqing was also immersed in the current scene the moment he took action.
She, Rong Enqing, an atheist living in a modern city and harmonious society, actually traveled through a book!
She also traveled to an inspirational novel with a heroine as the protagonist, and became the grandmother of the heroine Yun Luo, and the lady dowager of Shun'an Marquis' Mansion.
In the book, the heroine Yunluo is the illegitimate daughter of Shun'an Hou Yunhao who is wandering outside. The story begins when the heroine Yunluo entered the mansion at the age of 6.
And now, the biological father of the heroine Yun Luo, Yun Hao, the second master of Shun'an Marquis's Mansion, has not yet become the Marquis of Shun'an.
Rong Enqing suddenly had the plot summary of the original book in her mind, as well as all the memories of the original owner from birth to death. This made her instantly understand that the scene before her was Yun Hao bringing his biological mother Jiang and his wife Song to give the original owner an ultimatum.
Just after the woman Jiang fell, Yun Hao, who was sitting beside her, almost jumped up from his chair, rushed to Jiang's side in three or two steps, and reached out to help her.
"Mom, are you okay?" There was unconcealable worry in his tone.
While Yun Hao was supporting Jiang, he glared at Rong Enqing with anger in his eyes.
Rong Enqing sneered and, according to the original owner's memory, asked sternly, "What do you call this bitch?"
A nominally legitimate son actually calls a concubine "mother". If this gets out, he will probably lose his identity as the legitimate son.
Yun Hao obviously thought of this as well. His face darkened and he called out again, "Auntie."
Rong Enqing acted like a wife, imitated the original owner's tone, pointed at Jiang and cursed: "And you, Jiang, you are a concubine who is not worthy of being on the stage, how can you have the nerve to call Yun Hao your son? If I remember correctly, Yun Hao is registered under my name, so by rights, he should be my son!"
Jiang's face changed drastically, and she pointed at Rong Enqing in disbelief: "You, you vicious woman, are you trying to take my son away!?"
Rong Enqing didn't comment, but just raised her chin high and said condescendingly: "Why fight? I am his legal mother! Even if he inherits the Marquis' Mansion, I am still the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. And you can only follow your youngest son and live in the separate mansion. You want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion, suppress me, and show off your power as a lady? Bah! Do you think you are worthy of it?"
Jiang burst into tears instantly, and the hand pointing at Rong Enqing began to tremble violently, "You, you vicious woman, actually tried to separate us mother and son! You won't succeed! My son will never agree to it."
Rong Enqing was too lazy to listen to Jiang's words. His eyes fell directly on Yun Hao who lowered his head. He said in a tone that could not be refused: "Yun Hao, I will give you a chance. As long as you promise in person in front of the elders of the Yun family tomorrow to let Jiang and your third brother separate from the Marquis' Mansion, I will let you inherit the Marquis' Mansion. How do you think?"
Hearing this, Jiang burst into tears and threw herself into Yun Hao's arms, crying so hard that her whole body was shaking.
Yun Hao hugged Jiang in silence for a long time, then slowly raised his head and looked at Rong Enqing, with a look of great frustration but having to obey, and even his tone was suppressed and angry.
I only heard him utter one word slowly: "Okay."
After saying that, he lowered his head again and hugged Jiang even tighter in his arms.
People who don’t know the truth would think that this mother and son had suffered a great injustice.
That’s what the blind original owner thought.
But Rong Enqing, who possessed all the memories of the original owner, knew that today's scene was just a show performed by the mother and son for her.
The purpose was to let Jiang provoke her anger, and then let Jiang act as a weak victim to satisfy Rong Enqing's self-esteem and competitiveness, so as to achieve their goal. In fact, they succeeded.
That was how the original owner agreed to let Yun Hao inherit the Marquisate. Of course, another reason was that the original owner was worried that if the dispute over the Marquisate was delayed and there was no result, the emperor would take back the title of the Marquisate, and in the end, everything would be lost, so she compromised.
However, after Yun Hao became the Marquis of Shun'an, the separated Jiang Shi began to run to the Marquis' Mansion all day long. Within two years, she was taken back by Yun Hao. Even his separated brother moved back to the Marquis' Mansion within a few years.
Therefore, even if the original owner was the stepmother, even if she was the lady dowager of the marquisate who was granted an imperial title, in the end she had to be deeply involved in the disputes in the harem, and ended up with a tragic ending of being paralyzed in bed and dying of depression.
Looking at the people who were helping Jiang leave, and thinking of the marquis's mansion's backyard that would be as tangled as a spider web in the future, Rong Enqing couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Therefore, in order to make her life easier in the future, she decided not to repeat the mistakes made by the original owner.
After all, her goal is to live a hundred years!
