The words "legitimate vs. illegitimate conflict" drifted into Song Zhiqing's ears, causing his whole body to tremble, and a trace of malevolence flashed in his eyes.
Well, yes, legitimate vs. illegitimate conflict—it's something every family has. Doesn't the Song Family have it? The Song Family does, indeed. Otherwise, why would the legitimate members of the Song Family, whether in terms of career or marriage, fare so well?
What about the third branch born out of illegitimacy?
Song Zhiqing clenched his molars tightly.
Song Ruwei only married a minor official of the sixth rank. So what if they are related to the Prince Consort's family? He's not the son of the eldest Princess.
Take Duke Cheng'en, for example. Even his legitimate mother, famous for her kindness and generosity, wouldn't seek a marriage alliance for Song Ruwei, but immediately turned to arrange one for her legitimate granddaughter.
If this isn't favoritism, if this isn't suppression, then what is?
