Chapter 651: Treat it as your own
What kind of person is Zhuge Liang?
Intelligence, wisdom, erudition, these are all things that describe his abilities, not his character.
As for Zhuge Liang's character, he doesn't need to read the textbooks that he knew in later generations, and the potter is just looking at this disciple in front of him now...... He thinks the two most appropriate words to describe the current Zhuge Liang character are: loyalty and integrity.
But at present, these two character traits seem to be somewhat contradictory to each other in Zhuge Liang's heart.
He is his mentor, his lord, and the leader of his career.
Therefore, there is no doubt that Zhuge Liang is loyal to himself.
But the current matter of the new son of heaven Liu Xi made Zhuge Liang feel that his integrity and loyalty were colliding with each other.
Liu Xi is a baby, although he is the bloodline left by the first emperor and the nephew of the pottery merchant, Zhuge Liang feels that this child will be used in the future.
After all, no one would desperately hand over the business in his hands to a stinky child.
Even potters are the same...... Prince of the Peace, a gentleman in the world? It's all titles, and no one can really be the so-called selfless.
Zhuge Liang also knew that he couldn't control the rise of Tao in the future, and from his point of view, he was in the same boat as the pottery merchants, and he naturally hoped that Tao could rise...... It can even replace Liu.
But this poor child is too innocent.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Zhuge Liang asked the potter to keep this cheap nephew by his side.
Zhuge Liang hopes that the potters will be able to take care of their care in the future...... If there is a day in the future, he will not harm this child.
After all, tigers don't eat children, and in Zhuge Liang's opinion, his teacher is not a poisonous person.
At best, it's just a slut.
The potter also knew Zhuge Liang's good intentions, especially when he pierced Kong Ming's intentions with one word, he could obviously feel Zhuge 's nervousness.
He didn't know if he should answer the potter with the truth.
The potter didn't need him to answer.
Turning his head to look at Liu Xi in his arms, the little nephew's face was still close to the potter, looking so close.
"Just do as you say." The pottery merchant kindly hugged the child more tightly in his arms: "After all, it is Tao Hua's child, and someone has to take care of him to grow up, this emperor's nephew...... I brought it! ”
Zhuge Liang showed a look of surprise.
He really couldn't think of why the potter, since he had seen through the true purpose of his advice, why did he do it?
……
The war in the south was temporarily calmed down, and after the pottery merchant and Tao Ying explained the situation here, they immediately raised their troops and returned to Pengcheng.
After returning to Pengcheng, the potter immediately summoned the female relatives of the family and made a brief statement to them about Xiao Liu Xi.
Diao Chan and Mi Zhen were dumbfounded after hearing this, and the two sisters, Qiao Yi and Qiao Yun, also secretly muttered non-stop.
"Raise the Emperor...... In our house? Diao Chan looked at the potter bitterly.
The pottery merchant nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, from now on, the emperor's nephew is our family, and he will grow up in this family and become a member of our Tao family, except for the different surnames, the rest are the same...... I want you to treat him as if he were your own, as much as I do. ”
Diao Chan smiled bitterly: "It's no problem to raise your own children...... But after all, he is an emperor, not a cat or a dog, and if there is a problem, how can we reprimand him like our own children? ”
The potter raised his eyebrows: "Why can't you?" said that if you treat it as your own, then you have to do the responsibility of your parents, and there is naturally nothing to say about pampering, but if he makes a mistake, let alone reprimand him, he should be kicked to death. ”
Mi Zhen gently covered her mouth: "That's the emperor!" How dare you let us beat him? ”
The potter said lightly: "Parents, that's it...... Also, there is a little bit of trifle. ”
With that, he shouted out the door, "Come in, all three." ”
When I was young, I saw Feng, Yuan Wan and Lu Lingqi walking in together.
Facing Diao Chan's puzzled gaze, the potter's face turned red, and he coughed lightly: "When Xiaoxi was just brought back by Ma Xun, it was Miss Yuan and Mrs. Feng who helped to watch, and the children and them also have a deep relationship, since the children will live in our house from now on, I want them to live in and help watch the children together, after all, it is today, and there are no two aunts who are proud to help take care of it, how much it seems that our Tao family is not thoughtful, and after all, you and Zhen'er still have the heavy responsibility of taking care of our family......
Mi Zhen nodded abruptly and said, "It's still thoughtful to the husband." ”
Diao Chan looked at the potter with a playful expression.
Qiao Yi and Qiao Yun looked at Yuan Wan and Mrs. Feng timidly.
When he was young, he heard Qiao Yun whisper: "Then these two, are they also the main mother?" ”
Yuan Wan stepped forward with a smile and said, "How can we have that good life, we are all the same, and Aunt Feng and I are just on duty at the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Qiao Yi nodded suddenly, then turned his head to look at Lu Lingqi and said, "Prime Minister, who is this?" ”
The potter waved his hand and said, "She belongs to the food and drink, and will be responsible for taking care of our family and nursing home in the future." ”
Lu Lingqi's face flushed: "I, how did I become a caretaker?" ”
The potter waved his hand: "I will provide you with food, sleep for you, and teach you the way to use soldiers for free, and you are just handing over my martial arts, no matter how you calculate it, I will suffer, right?" It's reasonable for you to help in the house. ”
Lu Lingqi pouted and said, "That's not a nursing home, how ugly does it sound...... What does a nursing home do? That's the door of the house, what's the difference with a dog? ”
The potter pondered for a moment and said, "Then why don't you ...... You're going to be the head of my prime minister's house? ”
Lu Lingqi blinked suspiciously: "What is the head of the gun and stick sect?" ”
"It's the head of the guards in the palace, who went out at a critical moment to settle all kinds of troubles for the prime minister."
Lu Lingqi pondered for a moment and showed a happy smile: "This position is good, it sounds better than the nursing home!" ”
The potter rolled his eyes, what a stupid girl.
In other words, is there a difference in substantive work?
According to Lu Lingqi, it is not the same as the dog of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
But it doesn't matter, Lu Lingqi's position is just a false name, in the territory of Pengcheng, there is no really tired and crooked fool who leads people to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pick quarrels and provoke trouble.
After everything was arranged, the potter officially took Liu Xi, the son of heaven, to the prime minister's mansion.
Even if the Son of Heaven is a child, after all, his identity is there, and all the family members of the entire Prime Minister's Mansion naturally have to greet him in the courtyard to show the importance they attach to this matter.
When the pottery merchant personally carried Xiao Liu Xi into the Prime Minister's Mansion, all the ladies surrounded the little emperor and began to tease him, and everyone was teasing him with a smile.
He may have the aura of an emperor on his head, but in reality he is just a small child.
Xiao Liu Xi blinked and looked at these living people, and finally fell on Xiao Tao Lin in Diao Chan's arms.
As if hesitating, Xiao Liu Xi stretched out his chubby little hand to Xiao Tao Lone......
