Chapter 5, Family Dinner

"My nephew is in Fujian?" Zhang Xuan asked.

Zheng Chenggong was slightly stunned, and then immediately said: "The dog is in Nan'an's hometown. ”

Zhang Xuan said: "Call him over, just so that their little couple can meet." ”

Zheng Chenggong said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that the dog will be abrupt? ”

"Little children?" Zhang Xuan said: "What's the matter, my daughter is also very stubborn." After all, they will get along for a lifetime in the future, and it is better to see each other early than late, and it just so happens that King Yue will also meet his daughter-in-law. ”

Zheng Chenggong said: "Thank you, Your Majesty Longen." ”

Zhang Xuan immediately set a time.

The reason why he is just a little compensation for Zhang Ping.

The marriage with the Zheng family is very related, even Zhang Xuan cannot change it, and it cannot be shaken.

Zhang Xuan can only let the two of them have more contact, if he can, Zhang Xuan also wants to keep Zheng Sen in the palace. In this way, Zhang Ping and Zheng Sen can be called childhood sweethearts, and by influencing the second generation, it is best to let the Zhang and Zheng families not use swords.

After Zheng Chenggong left, Zhang Xuan returned to the palace.

This matter, he needs to discuss a thing or two with Luo Yujiao.

After all, Zhang Xuan has never interfered in the affairs of the palace, and Luo Yujiao has handled them.

After Zheng Chenggong returned to the palace, he didn't find Luo Yujiao, and asked the people who were waiting, only to know that the queen had gone to the palace of Xiaoya.

The first queen and two concubines in Zhang Xuan's palace have the simplest population. In the eyes of the outside world, there is only one son and one daughter. Therefore, the courtiers below persuaded Zhang Xuan to accept beauties, and the twists and turns of Guangzong's heirs continued. Zhang Xuan was tired of it, but there was no way. Because what they say is not wrong.

Wanting Dink in the afterlife is just your own business. But in this era, it is quite sad that an emperor has no heir.

For example, Emperor Hongzhi, the emperor and queen are extremely harmonious, and it is a good story through the ages. But what's behind this age-old story? Zhengde died, Emperor Hongzhi was in the same vein, and Empress Zhang was already the queen mother at that time, and she watched the two brothers be killed by Jiajing. The aftermath was also done coldly.

People are not dead, as if they are dead.

It is true that the two Zhang brothers have a way to die, but if Zhengde or Hongzhi have an heir, they will never end up here.

Not to mention, Zhang Xuan is the master of entrepreneurship and has no brothers, although everyone knows that he is from the Linying Zhang family, but even if he is a fabricated identity, his relationship with the Linying Zhang family is also very far away, not to mention that Zhang Xuan and Zhang Zhen both know what the truth is?

Although Zhang Xuan already has a son, the chance of a child growing up in this era is too small. A son is not insured.

Fortunately, in the past few months, good news has come out of the harem, Xiaoya

Pregnant.

This incident greatly alleviated Zhang Xuan's predicament.

At the same time, Xiaoya has also become the most favored person in the harem. Even Luo Yujiao often went over to take a look. Zhang Xuan then came to Xiaoya's palace again.

After Zhang Xuan arrived, he looked at Xiaoya, comforted her, and told her to raise the baby with peace of mind. Returning to the palace with Luo Yujiao, there were guards near the two of them following from a distance, walking between the red walls and blue bricks, Zhang Xuan told Luo Yujiao about this matter.

Luo Yujiao said: "I think you are a little different from Zheng Chenggong. ”

Zhang Xuan listened, and smiled slightly bitterly in his heart, there are some things that Zhang Xuan can hide from the minister, but he may not be able to hide from the person next to him. The influence of his education since childhood on him is indeed indelible. For Zheng Chenggong and Li Dingguo, Zhang Xuan always has to be more tolerant by others.

It's just that he can't say this reason, he can only say to Luo Yujiao: "Zheng Chenggong is a hero in the world, the Zheng family has dominated the sea for two generations, father and son successively, if it is used by the imperial court, it is better than 100,000 soldiers and horses." If we don't use it, we will only increase the enemy, so we have to be cautious. ”

"It's fine." Luo Yujiao said: "It's also her repaying the favor." ”

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and it was hard to say anything. He knew that the "she" Luo Yujiao was talking about was Zhang Ping.

Luo Yujiao has a good relationship with Xiaoya, and it can be said that they are sisters. But he was extremely white-eyed to Dong Xiaowan, and even Zhang Ping didn't have a good face. is lukewarm to her, so Zhang Ping is most afraid of her as the queen mother, Zhang Xuan knows where the root knot is, but it is not easy to say anything.

It's just that Zhang Xuan didn't know that Luo Yujiao had already let Dong Xiaowan take sterilization medicine. I won't be able to get pregnant anymore.

Of course, the sterilization measures in this era are not so effective, and such a tiger and wolf medicine has caused great damage to Dong Xiaowan's body. made her physically weak, and she had to linger on the sickbed for more than a month every year as soon as winter began. If it weren't for the fear that Zhang Xuan would be angry, Luo Yujiao would have disposed of Dong Xiaowan a long time ago.

A few days later, in Xiao Nian, Zhang Xuan invited Zheng Chenggong's family to enter the palace, and Zheng Chenggong's wife and children went to the harem together. Zhang Xuan and Zheng Chenggong drank with each other, and the two had a very tacit understanding, not talking about the current government affairs, but talking about the old things when Zheng Chenggong was guarding Luo Rucai and marching west to Wuchang.

At that time, the two had a good relationship, and they were happy for a while.

It's just that when the two of them were drinking, they saw Li Guofu coming and whispered something in Zhang Xuan's ear. Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said, "Little child, there is a contradiction, let's go and take a look." ”

Zhang Xuan got up and joined Zheng Chenggong and came to the harem in a few steps.

Because Zhang Xuan set up a family banquet to show his intimacy with Zheng Chenggong, it was very close to the harem, and the distance between the two was quite close. After a while, Zhang Xuan saw two children, kneeling on the ground.

After all, it's winter, and although the winter in Nanjing is not particularly cold, let two

The child knelt on the ground, and Zhang Xuan also felt a little unbearable.

These two children are Zhang Ping and Zheng Sen.

Zhang Xuan said: "Get up." ”

When Zhang Ping saw Zhang Xuan coming, her eyes lit up, and she was looking at Zhang Xuan with her eyes, waiting for Zhang Xuan's words, but Zheng Sen didn't dare to look up at Zheng Chenggong. Zheng Chenggong said sharply: "Didn't you hear Your Majesty call you up?" What's going on? ”

Zheng Sen's body trembled, he immediately got up, raised his head slightly, and Zhang Xuan suddenly saw that Zheng Sen was very embarrassed, and the eye sockets on his face were beaten black and blue. And nosebleeds are prolonged. Zhang Xuan knew at a glance that it must have been done by Zhang Ping, because except for Zhang Ping, no one in the palace dared to beat the prince of Yue like this.

Zheng Chenggong's wife, Dong, hurriedly said: "However, children are just messing around." ”

"Hmph." In front of outsiders, Luo Yujiao couldn't say anything. But he secretly said in his heart: "This crazy girl has to clean up well." ”

When Zhang Xuan was stationed in Guangzhou, Dong's mother and daughter were sent to Guangzhou, and Zhang Xuan was very indulgent to Zhang Ping in his spare time, so Zhang Ping was very naughty. Luo Yujiao has a knot in her heart for Zhang Ping, and because of Zhang Xuan, she doesn't want to discipline her, but she can't see it and don't worry about it. And Dong Xiaowan couldn't control it, so the little girl went to find Zhang Xuan.

Even sometimes ran to the Qianqing Palace, Zhang Xuan simply vacated a room in the Qianqing Palace as a place for Zhang Ping and Zhang An's two children to play. After all, Zhang Xuan has to deal with government affairs, and he doesn't have time to accompany their two children.

Seeing this, Zhang Xuan hurriedly reprimanded Zhang Ping and ordered Zhang Ping to continue to kneel.

Zheng Chenggong naturally wants to persuade one or two.

Whatever the matter is, it will be dealt with.

Zhang Xuan didn't care, and Zheng Chenggong didn't care, but he was a little dissatisfied with Zheng Sen, his Zheng Chenggong's son was actually beaten by a girl younger than him, and he was beaten if he was beaten, and he was actually aggrieved here. It's like a resentful woman.

Zheng Chenggong secretly said in his heart: "After I go back, I must teach this stinky boy a good lesson, otherwise how to take over the Zheng family's foundation." "Zheng Chenggong has a strong personality, and there is no room for sand in his eyes. The requirements for Zheng Sen are only higher.

In this way, Zheng Chenggong and Dong led Zheng Sen to retire.

Zhang Xuan asked Zhang Ping at this time, and said, "What's the matter, now I can say it." ”

Zhang Ping said: "Dad, I don't want to marry that fat boy." ”

"Why?" Zhang Xuan asked.

"I'm going to marry a hero like Daddy. That fat boy, who can't even beat me, how can he be a big hero? Zhang Ping said in a milky voice.

Zhang Xuan suddenly smiled and said, "Your Uncle Zheng is a big hero, and his son is not much worse." ”

"No." Zhang Ping said: "Didn't Daddy say that there are too many tiger fathers and dogs in the world. I think that fat boy is a dog, not just a dog, but a pug. ”
