"What? Did I hear you right?"

Yuan Chang, who returned to Beijing from Jilin Province, was stunned by a sudden news, and looked at the shy Liu Xi in front of him with a shocked face, and was a little incredulous for a while.

"Yes, husband, the concubine has your flesh and blood!"

"I'm going to be a dad..."

Yuan Chang had a confused expression, as if he was in a dream. Of course, Yuan Chang didn't doubt that the child in his belly was his, but he received such news after returning from a trip abroad, and I believe that anyone would be stunned. If Yuan Chang went out for a year and came back to hear such news, he would probably vomit blood, but after only a few months of going out, the time of pregnancy was about the same as when he left, Yuan Chang was only excited, excited, happy and faintly confused.

Yes, confused, in his previous life, because of the departure of his parents, he lingered in the red dust, leaving only sperm and no mercy, not to mention children, and he didn't have a girlfriend. However, in this era, it seems that within a few years, the child will be made out for him. As a first-time father, he is naturally confused. However, since he has a child, he is no longer like a passerby in this world, as if in a dream, when he wakes up, everything is empty.

"Great!"

After the initial confusion, Yuan Chang finally reacted, picked up Liu Xi excitedly, and spun around in place a few times, if it wasn't for the people next to him to dissuade him, he would have hurt Liu Xi.

"Husband, my sister is a person with a body now, you can't be so reckless. ”

Zhen Jiang helped Liu Xi and said coquettishly, but there seemed to be a little resentment in his voice. It's also oh, she and Liu Xi took turns to serve Yuan Chang, but Liu Xi was pregnant, but she didn't move. For a while, Zhen Jiang had some gains and losses, whether he had a problem, so he was like this.

Originally, because Zhen Jiang was older than Liu Xi, Liu Xi called Zhen Jiang his sister, and later with Liu Xi's acquiescence, Zhen Jiang also entered Yuan Chang's door, naturally it can't be counted according to age, and after the final negotiation, it was called according to the order of entering the door, so Zhen Jiang called Liu Xi his sister. However, Liu Xi and Zhen Jiang think that this seems to be not bad, as far as they know, the two daughters of Cai Yan and Diao Xiu'er beside Yuan Chang will also enter the door sooner or later, but Cai Yan and Diao Xiu'er are older than them, if they are ranked according to their age, they will be a little lost, and now they will be ranked according to the order of entering the door, and they will still be the eldest sister and second sister when they think about it.

"Yes, yes, Luo'er, what you taught you is that it is the husband's fault!" Yuan Chang looked sincere in admitting his mistake, but the thief secretly squeezed his eyebrows at Zhen Jiang, and seemed to have some ill intentions. After all, no one is as cheeky as Yuan Chang, and at that moment, Zhen Jiang blushed and ran back to the room.

"Husband, don't fool your sister, she's not in a very good mood these days. ”

Liu Xi's soft "blame" sentence is more like flirting. I have to say that Liu Xi, who is pregnant, seems to be more gentle now, if in the past, although she recognized Zhen Jiang, but in front of herself, Liu Xi might want to give Yuan Chang some good looks and show her waist pinching skills.

"My sister may be in a bad mood because she couldn't conceive, husband, you have to work harder, don't let your sister suffocate yourself because of this. ”

Maybe it's about to be a mother, and Liu Xi has no taboos when he says this kind of thing.

"The husband knows, but this kind of thing can't be forced, everything depends on the will of God. But Xi'er, you have said so, the husband will definitely redouble his efforts to let Luo'er get pregnant as soon as possible, and then the child in your belly will not be alone, and there will be someone to accompany you. ”

"Phew!"

Although there are no taboos, Liu Xi is still a little shy when he hears Yuan Chang's explicit words. However, at least he didn't hear it and then fled with his face hidden. Maybe it was because of his body, Liu Xi was a little tired after saying it for a while, and immediately called the maid who was guarding outside to take Liu Xi to rest. However, before leaving, Liu Xi seemed to have something to say, hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Yuan Chang with resentment: "Husband, Miss Zhaoji has been following you for a long time, and if you go on like this, I'm afraid there will be remarks outside, Husband, it doesn't matter if you are thick-skinned, the reputation of Miss Zhaoji is not good, why don't you pick a time to welcome Miss Zhaoji into the door!"

After saying this, Liu Xi followed the maid and left, leaving Yuan Chang alone in the hall to sigh, there is nothing to regret about marrying such a daughter-in-law in this life. However, there is some truth in what Liu Xi said, although Yuan Chang did not pursue it too much, but there are still some bad remarks about Cai Yan. After all, Cai Yan is a daughter, and she follows Yuan Chang all day long, and in today's era, the influence is still not good. It's just that Yuan Chang doesn't want to imprison Cai Yan, and hopes that she can do her own thing.

That night, Yuan Chang didn't go to Zhen Jiang's room to rest, although Liu Xi said that he should work harder, so that Zhen Jiang could get pregnant as soon as possible. However, sometimes a woman's words must not be taken seriously, otherwise it is herself who is unlucky, especially a pregnant woman. No, seeing Yuan Chang in his room, although Liu Xi didn't say anything on his face, the joy in his expression couldn't be hidden, heh, woman!

The next morning, Zhen Jiang didn't show Yuan Chang's face, maybe she also knew that a pregnant woman's mood would fluctuate, Liu Xi could accept her generously, why should she be anxious, the child would have sooner or later. However, she is also thinking about whether to find a doctor to see if there is something wrong with her body, otherwise why she didn't get pregnant.

"Luo'er, don't be cranky!"

After Yuan Chang came back, he often saw Zhen Jiang in a daze from time to time, and understood what she was thinking, but this kind of thinking was very dangerous, and his face was blank at the moment, and he said seriously: "This kind of thing depends on luck, if it doesn't work once, it will be twice, if it doesn't work twice, it will be three times, if you can't conceive in one year, it will be three years if you can't conceive in two years, and if you can't conceive it in two years, you will have time when we are still young." You must not go to those doctors to take medicine indiscriminately, otherwise your body may not be able to conceive when the time comes. Therefore, you must listen to your husband, and wait for your husband to pamper you at night!"

After speaking, Yuan Chang ran away decisively.

"Sister, look at her husband..."

Yuan Chang's words in front were still serious, but when he got to the back, he began to be out of tune again, and it was only the three of them here, otherwise Zhen Jiang wouldn't know how to meet people.

"Hehe, sister, it's not like you don't know your husband's temperament. Here is the husband and you and me, as the husband said, the joy of the boudoir can also enhance the relationship between husband and wife, do not have to be like those old masters, all day long, husband and wife are people who accompany each other for a lifetime, and what is there to be embarrassed about. ”

Liu Xi gave a rare explanation for Yuan Chang, of course, she knew that Zhen Jiang was not angry, but just a little shy. After the serious enlightenment was completed, Liu Xi suddenly showed a strange smile on his face, and said in Yuan Chang's tone: "Good Luo'er, remember to wash your white at night!"

"Ah, sister, how did you become as bad as your husband!"

The laughter came and went, Yuan Chang naturally couldn't hear it, and at this moment he was heading to his state governor's mansion. Usually, the officials who serve in various places, such as the county magistrate, the taishou, the state pastor, etc., as the largest local official, the government is their home. However, Yuan Chang does not want to use his home as an office space. Therefore, he built another mansion, which is not too luxurious, the home is the harbor of the soul, there is no need to make it as luxurious as the palace and the palace, and it is also as huge as the palace, it feels like going around a labyrinth. However, Yuan Chang asked the Chinese Academy of Sciences to get cement and build a three-story villa. After arriving at Yuan Chang's house, those ministers and generals thought that the villa was very delicate and followed suit, and the wealthy people in Beijing also learned from Yuan Chang and began to build villas, so that the craftsmen and carpenters who originally built the house for Yuan Chang flourished. And Yuan Chang's villa also led a trend, and all kinds of novel buildings in the city were born, which made Yuan Chang a little unexpected.

When he arrived at the office of the State Pastoral Mansion, Cai Yan had already arrived, polished Yuan Chang's table and chairs, and prepared a cup of fragrant and delicious tea, as if he knew that Yuan Chang would arrive at this time. After doing these things, Cai Yan was about to leave as usual.

"Akihime, wait!"

But it was Yuan Chang who spoke up, and Cai Yan's heart moved slightly. Usually, Yuan often calls her Secretary Cai in the state pastoral mansion, but today she is called by her name, which is obviously a private matter.

"This, actually..."

stopped Cai Yan, but Yuan Chang suddenly had a thought because of what Liu Xi said yesterday, and after Cai Yan stayed, he didn't know how to speak. Originally, it was a normal relationship between superiors and subordinates, of course, Yuan Chang would naturally not admit Cai Yan's idea of plotting against each other for a long time. It's coming to an end at this moment, but Yuan Chang doesn't know what to say.

"The state pastor calls his subordinates, I don't know what to order?"

Praise me Cai Yan, she is really a talented woman, and she still shows the temperament that a talented woman should have at this moment, not happy with things and sad with herself. Of course, the nervous look that flashed in the depths of her eyes naturally no one would notice it, after all, there were only two people in this room at this moment, and Yuan Chang was still struggling with how to speak.

"Ahem..."

After struggling for a while, Yuan Chang coughed lightly, walked in front of Cai Yan in a few steps, knelt down on one knee, took out a shining diamond ring from his arms, and said softly: "Zhaoji, you and I have known each other for several years, and you also know that I am not very good at talking, I just want to tell you that I have admired you since the first day we met, so are you willing to marry me?"

"Poof!"

seemed to be shocked by Yuan Chang's words, and Cai Yan looked stunned. Of course, Cai Yan was shocked not that Yuan Chang proposed to him, but that Yuan Chang, a stinky and shameless guy, was embarrassed to say such a thing that he couldn't speak. Besides, proposing to himself is so sloppy, although the ring is very good-looking, Liu Xi and Zhen Jiang have it, Cai Yan has naturally seen the second daughter wearing it. It's just that he is also a talented woman, and he has to write a few poems to propose to himself, even if he doesn't write it himself, he will always learn from it, right?

If Yuan Chang knew that he thought he was romantic, it would be a sloppy behavior in Cai Yan's eyes, and he didn't know if he would vomit blood. Sure enough, if you propose to this kind of literary and artistic woman, you have to use literary and artistic methods, and those who are romantic are all floating clouds.

"The state pastor forgives sins, the marriage is a major event, the parents' orders are matchmakers, and the subordinates dare not be proficient!" Cai Yan said with a straight face, and then walked with graceful and brisk steps, and walked like this, gone, gone...

Yuan Chang was stunned for a moment, the plot is not right!

Lang is affectionate, the concubine is intentional, and both sides know each other's meaning! It stands to reason that at this time, Cai Yan should not have jumped into his arms excitedly, and then burst into tears, happily saying that she was willing to say this, why did she leave? Moreover, Cai Yan said that she did not dare to decide on her own, this is not a joke, Cai Yan, who has the temper of a woman in the new era, when will she listen to Cai Yong's words, because Yuan Chang, who failed in the marriage proposal, was a little stunned, and he didn't know what to do for a while. It wasn't until Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and others arrived that he was a little sober.

Now Tai Shi Ci and Yu Ban are still dealing with the aftermath in Goguryeo, so the senior generals in the army are Zhao Yun, Yan Rou and Han Sui. Although Dian Wei is the commander of the First Garrison Division, don't think about it if you expect him to give advice. Thinking of this, Yuan Chang had a headache again, and it seemed that he would have to throw Dian Wei into the military academy for training as soon as possible, otherwise he would feel very troubled if he had a head and no head. Well, it was decided that Dian Wei would be thrown into the military academy to study in the past two days, and if he was not qualified, he would not be allowed to graduate. If Dian Wei knew that Yuan Chang was in a bad mood because of the failure of his marriage proposal, he would have thrown him to the military academy on a whim, and it is estimated that he would rush to Cai Yong's house and tie Cai Yan up and throw him on Yuan Chang's bed.

"During the time I was not in Youzhou, you have managed Youzhou in an orderly and prosperous manner, and you have worked hard!"

"The Lord is serious!"

Guo Jia, Xun Chen, Dong Zhao, Zhao Yun and others hurriedly got up, and even said that they didn't dare.

"Okay, okay!" Yuan Chang waved his hand to stop everyone, the superiors were polite, and the subordinates shirked, this was a traditional custom, and he couldn't change it, so he didn't say much. At that moment, Yuan Chang's face turned straight and said solemnly: "There is news from the fine work, in recent days, the battle between Li Dao and Guo Yan in Chang'an City has become more and more intense, you don't know what you think?"

Originally, Yuan Chang wanted everything to go according to the course of history. However, Goguryeo's trip made Yuan Chang's mind change, and he decided not to follow the same path anymore, so it was time for a change. However, before that, it is necessary to ask the opinion of his subordinates, after all, he is a very democratic person.
