Chapter 509: Another County Lord has been added
Princess Kunxing gave birth again.
To Fang Yuan's joy and depression, this time the princess gave birth to a daughter.
It's not that Fang Yuan doesn't like his daughter, and he won't blame the princess for this, but now he urgently needs the princess to give birth to a son to clarify the identity of the heir.
Otherwise, the backyard dispute, which has been stopped for a long time, is afraid that it will make waves again. The princess can't give birth to a son, and the real benefit is obviously Xiao Yuan, and her only son, Fang He.
As depressed as Fang Yuan was Princess Kunxing.
It has been three days since she gave birth to her daughter, and Xiao Yuan has not come to congratulate her. But even if Xiao Yuan didn't come, the princess could clearly feel that Xiao Yuan's eyes were full of victors. If Xiao Yuan gives birth to a son this time, she will be the biological mother of Fang Yuan's eldest son and second son, and her status is unshakable.
Fang Yuan took Princess Kunxing's postpartum depression in his eyes, so he named his newborn little daughter, Fang Yu. In order to make up for the princess a little, he even gave this little daughter who was born a few days ago the lord of Changping, and the fief was 10,000 acres of fertile land in Suzhou.
Changping is the title given to Princess Kunxing by the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history, and Fang Yuan borrowed it as Fang Yu's monarch title.
Just when Fang Yuan had a headache for the princess to have another daughter, Xiao Yuan finally came to the door. Xiao Yuan first congratulated the princess on her birthday, and told the princess that she had gone to Jinshan Temple these days and asked for a peace jade that had been consecrated by the elders of Jinshan Temple for the newborn little princess.
Xiao Yuan obviously would not go to Jinshan Temple in person in order to ask for a piece of peace jade, the purpose of her going to Jinshan Temple was to ask God to worship the Buddha and thank the Buddha. She didn't know how many times she prayed in her heart that the princess would never give birth to a son, but now that her wish has come true, she will go to the famous Buddhist holy place in Jiangnan to make incense and make a vow.
The princess quietly took the peace jade, handed it to Mama Liang, and said a few polite words to Xiaoyuan lukewarmly.
Xiao Yuan suddenly opened his mouth and asked Fang Yuan, "Childe, now that the princess has given birth to two princesses, and they have both been crowned county lords, when will He'er be canonized?!" ”
The princess couldn't give birth to a son for a long time, Fang He was already four or five years old, and Fang Yuan had no reasonable reason, so he suppressed and didn't give his eldest son Fang He a title.
Fang Yuan had already thought about this serious question, and since Xiao Yuan had asked, he also said, "Then Fang He will be the king of Anguo County, a fief!" No fiefdom for the time being. ”
Although Fang Yuan gave Fang He the title of a county king, he took An Guo as the king's title, which was by no means the title of the county king, but the title of the prince. The meaning of Fang He not receiving a fief is even more profound, if he is the prince of the regent, the whole world is not the king's land, where is the need for any fief? !
Xiao Yuan was so smart, he immediately heard Fang Yuan's overtone, that is, he put Fang He in the position of the quasi-successor. In the past two years, she has been in obscurity, and she has not quarreled with the princess again, so she has not fought for all changes, and sure enough, God opened her eyes, and the princess was a daughter for two consecutive children, and she finally got a reward.
But Fang Yuan deliberately left Fang He the name of the king of the county, that is, he left a way out in case of emergency. If the princess gives birth to another boy, there may be variables; If the princess has never been able to give birth to a boy, Fang He's heir position is almost ironclad.
Princess Kunxing is also well aware of the situation in the backyard dispute. She tried her best to pull Fang Yuan's love and trust in Xiao Yuan to herself, but she always missed the last kick.
Luck is something you can't see or touch, but it's a magical thing. Some people did not die in front of the front, and some died in the rear; There are people who are in the war, and they have not died in a hundred battles, but they have just ended the war and have been killed by stray bullets.
The goddess of fate does not favor her, and no matter what she does, it is in vain.
The current situation is quite delicate for Princess Kunxing, although she still has a chance to have another son, and it is a religious ritual to establish a successor first and then a long one.
But the premise is that the sister-in-law should be the same age as the eldest son.
In such troubled times, the Jiangnan regime is not stable and may collapse at any time. If the difference between the two sons is six or seven years, or even ten years old, whether it is a cabinet scholar or a military bigwig, they will tend to appoint an older heir instead of a stinky child.
Zhao Guangyi seized the throne almost without bloodshed, which is a living example. The so-called law of establishing a concubine is not even a fart in the face of practical interests. At that time, there will be a group of corrupt Confucians who will stand up and find a lot of reasons to package the rationality of the establishment in the Four Books and Five Classics of Confucianism.
Fang Yuan saw the gloom on her face, and before announcing Fang He's title, he didn't discuss it with her, and was a little abrupt, so he comforted her a little and said, "Princess, this time I have made a great contribution to the Fang family, I like both sons and daughters, heh!" ”
Xiao Yuan was cheap and obedient, and said leisurely, "Yes! Sister, you are weak after giving birth, so don't worry and rest well! ”
Fang Yuan was about to leave the dormitory, when Princess Kunxing suddenly said lightly, "Donal, now that I'm weak after giving birth, and Mrs. Yuan is pregnant, I should always find a few more women to serve the concubine to sleep." Besides, there are only two women in the backyard over the years, which is a little deserted, and the men of the Fang family are not prosperous. It's better to find some more women to go into the backyard and spread the branches of the Fang family! ”
As soon as she said this, Fang Yuan and Xiao Yuan were stunned, Princess Kunxing took the initiative to propose to find a woman for Fang Yuan to enrich the backyard.
Xiao Yuan had insight into the princess's mind in an instant, and her face sank, and the princess was determined to find foreign aid to deal with her together. Find a few more women to inherit Fang Yuan's ancestry, and if a boy is born, the princess can adopt it as her own heir, and she will have the status of a concubine.
Fang Yuan also knew the princess's calculations, which woman would be willing to find a woman for her husband to please herself? The princess is also forced to be helpless, otherwise if Xiao Yuan gains power, she will at least be able to sit on an equal footing with her in the future, and the consequences will be much more serious.
In the face of the fierce battle of the hostess in the backyard, what is it to be jealous? !
Fang Yuan smiled and said, "Princess, I am busy with military affairs all day long, and now that Sun Chuanting's troops are pressing the border, Li Zicheng is also ready to move, where did he come from this thought?" Let's wait! ”
Fang Yuan rejected the princess's proposal to enrich the harem, and he also had his own plans.
He wanted a woman, he didn't have to take it into the house, and besides, he didn't meet a few women worthy of him taking back to the backyard. Liu Ru himself does not want to enter his palace, but only wants to be his lover outside; Chen Yuanyuan had already agreed to Zhu Yihai, and it was inconvenient to go back on his word.
What he wants to do most at the moment is to pass Fang He to the princess, and then become the prince regent. In this way, the princess has an heir, and Xiaoyuan's mother will no longer make trouble with her son, and the two may stop a little, and there will be no more troubles about the backyard disputes.
Of course, this proposal was not put forward by Fang Yuan for the time being, because Xiao Yuan only has such a son, and over the years, he is afraid of falling in his hand, and he is afraid of melting in his mouth, and he is regarded as a treasure in the palm of his hand. If she forcibly passed Fang He to the princess, it would be too cruel for her, and it was estimated that she would meet with a strong backlash.
What's more, at this juncture when she is six or seven months pregnant, it is not good to stimulate Xiaoyuan and move the fetal gas.
Fang originally planned to wait for Xiao Yuan to have another child, and then pass Fang He to the princess, which would be justified, and it was estimated that Xiao Yuan's resistance would not be as strong as what he proposed at the moment.
