Shared succession?!

Is it the shared succession she understood?!

Song Jiyun couldn't hide her surprise.

Because of difficulties with producing heirs, if in a family several branches only had one son amongst them, and there was no one suitable for adoption, one man would inherit the ancestors' glory from several branches, marry wives from each branch, and the children born would continue the ancestors' glory for the respective branches.

Yuan Yunzhong was to practice shared succession.

This meant that Yuan Yunzhong was going to marry two wives from different families, and in terms of ancestral law, one would belong to the Wang Family, and the children born would inherit the Wang Family's property and business. The other would belong to the Yuan Family, and the children born would inherit the Yuan Family's assets.

The most important thing was that both wives would be Yuan Yunzhong's official wives, receiving the status and treatment of a principal spouse.
