Chapter 1254: R King's Court (13)
The three of them followed the sound and saw a noble lady in her early fifties, with exquisite makeup and wearing standard court clothes, who put her hand on the arm of a maid and walked slowly.
Jing Beitang had already stood up to greet her, "Princess Ina, how are you?"
Princess Ina walked gracefully, with a formal smile on her face, as if she had calculated the size and speed of her steps. She had obviously received a very strict education in court etiquette, "Uncle Beitang, won't you introduce these two nobles?"
When Princess Ina spoke, her sharp eyes looked at Mu Zhilan calmly. It was not difficult to guess her identity. If she could come in here without the tacit consent of the monarch, even Beitang Jing had no right to bring outsiders in.
However, is the mother of the first heir considered an outsider...
Besides, the mother and son were dressed generously and decently, and their demeanor was extraordinary. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
That aura of power clearly showed that she was an enemy, not a friend. However, out of courtesy, Mu Jinchen helped Mu Zhilan stand up and nodded to her as a greeting.
"Princess, please sit down. Zhilan and Chen'er, please sit down too." As a bridge of communication, Jing Beitang asked everyone to sit down before continuing, "Zhilan Chen'er, this is the princess of Country R, Princess Ina."
"Princess, this is my relative, Ms. Mu Zhilan, and the other is my son-in-law, Mu Jinchen."
Mu Zhilan and Mu Jinchen still nodded indifferently, without even the slightest emotional fluctuation, and they did not feel the slightest timidity or respect for Ina because she was a princess of a country. She was really a character.
"Uncle Beitang must have concealed something from Ina. This person should be the first heir to the throne rumored by the royal family, the son born outside the king." Princess Ina looked at Mu Jinchen carefully, with a formal smile that did not reach her eyes, and there was a faint cold light in the depths of her eyes.
When Ina heard the news, she almost gnashed her teeth. As the saying goes, "Family disgrace should not be made public." It was not that she could not give birth to a son, but that the number of times the Lord favored her throughout the year was simply few and far between. Most of the time, he was absent-minded. Not to mention pleasure, he seemed to have no ordinary feelings, and sometimes he even gave up halfway... How could such a marriage life quality give birth to a son?
The Lord did find a doctor to do IVF, but for some reason, their eggs and sperm could not combine at all, and it was impossible to succeed in trying to conceive.
In the next ten or twenty years, the Lord did not even touch her. If she had not personally verified it, she would have thought that the Lord had a hidden disease in that area.
But he has always been a cold person. Not only her, but also any woman outside, he has never touched her. Ina's heart is a little more balanced.
The Lord has the whole R country in his heart, and he has always been a male chauvinist, so he can't accommodate women. Even if she has complaints, there is nothing to say.
She couldn't get his heart, and no other woman had ever gotten it. At least, she, Ina, got it, which was the highest honor that every woman dreamed of.
Over the years, she had always played her role well, fulfilled her duties, and never said a word against the Lord in front of outsiders, always protecting his dignity.
But unexpectedly, he had a son with a woman outside more than 30 years ago, and he was so handsome, just like his father.
