Chapter 260: Succession?
Chapter 260: Succession?
Gu Wan took the child and stayed in Zhuangzi all the time. //..
Mu Yanzhao often runs at both ends, Zhuangzi lives for a few days, and returns to Beijing for a few days, and the Liu family once wrote a huā note for this, laughing and saying that Princess Gu should be careful that Mu Qiwang moves his intestines!
"In case when you return to Beijing, there are three or five more beauties in the palace, when the time comes, don't cry to your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law just wants to help you, and she can't care about their husbands."
Gu Wan soaked in the hot springs, and saw the queen's mother's 'advice' in her mind to imagine that there were three or five more beauties in the palace - well, it seems that there have been several more beauties before, once Qi Donghou Li Yuanmao, Li Xi, and also gave Mu Qi, twelve orchids, born with blonde hair and blue eyes, snow-white skin, and can sing and dance, Hu Xuan dance is wonderful, even Mu Yanzhao said, it can be compared to the beautiful baby raised by Le'an Hou Shuibo back then!
This is definitely a beautiful word, the delicate dancers in Le'an Hou Shuibo's family back then were the most outstanding in Dayong, and each one placed in Yicui Lou could be the master for more than five years.
The huā kui of Yicui Lou is elected every year, and those who can be re-elected for more than three years are all Tianxiang national colors!
Gu Wan pursed the corners of her mouth and thought, it seems that eight of them are married to Mu Qi's doorman, and the other four were recruited by herself to Dayong's shop to be the female shopkeeper, and the income of the shop has increased by 30% in a year.
"Beauty is also an important resource...... Gu Wan muttered, turned over, put a wet handkerchief on her head, and continued to soak comfortably.
She was also jealous when she was newly married, and later thought about what she would do if Mu Qi wanted to take a concubine...... But so many years have passed, and both of them have three babies, so they can't even give such basic trust to that person.
After living in Zhuangzi for a while, Mu Yanxu also sent a little father-in-law to bring her a cart of ice.
"Long live the Lord is worried that Xiao Shizi is afraid of heat, so he specially asked the slave to fetch good ice for the princess."
This little father-in-law is Zhang Hong's godson, no name, the older father-in-law calls him Xiaoyu, a little younger respectfully called Xiaoyu father-in-law, Zhang Hong recognized it years ago, only eleven or twelve years old, born with red lips and white teeth, shrewd and clever, there is no inferiority complex unique to the little eunuchs in the palace, nor is he greedy for money, and his behavior is down-to-earth and generous.
Gu Wan looked at him and liked it, no wonder Zhang Hong, who was well versed in the way of self-preservation, was so low-key that he became the chief eunuch, or a person who would be ignored if he didn't pay attention, would even think of accepting him as his godson. //..
"Is your stepfather okay?"
"My father-in-law is in good health, and he can still serve the long-lived master."
Gu Wan nodded and smiled, originally, the year before last, Mu Yanxu was going to let Zhang Hong go out of the palace to retire, and specially bought him a house in the best location of Dayong, which is not big, it is three-in, but it is extremely exquisite, and the location is also excellent, surrounded by high-ranking families, the public security situation is excellent, Mu Yanxu is a nostalgic person, and originally wanted to help Zhang Hong find his relatives, if there is a junior, he can pass one to his knees, and let him not be desolate in his old age.
But Zhang Hong went out to live for two days, all kinds of uncomfortable, went back to the palace to see the master, cried a handful of snot and tears, Mu Yanxu couldn't cry or laugh, seeing that he was really pitiful, he was a person who would not enjoy Qingfu at all, so he had to laugh and scold, and let him continue to come back on an errand.
As for Zhang Hong's family, it is impossible to find it. In those years, there were frequent wars, he managed to hide in the palace, and he didn't die in the war, but the relatives don't have to think about it, the family died cleanly, and Zhang Hong had already died, originally thinking that he would be too old to do work in the future, so he went to live in the house given by the master, and when he died in the future, he just found a place to bury it, and it was just that.
I never thought that I would encounter a light rain.
Xiaoyu has just entered the palace, ignorant, honest and obedient, he is born beautifully, the errands in the Mu family's palace are relatively simple, even these palace people, although there are times when they fight for power and profit, they are cleaner than the previous dynasty, and no one bullies him, and because he is young, he always refuses to give him too heavy work, so this kid often likes to sneak near Yong'an Palace and listen to the sound of reading aloud from inside.
Yong'an Palace is a place opened up by Mu Yanxu and the Liu family for the dragon and phoenix grandsons and the children of the clan to study.
Zhang Hong met Xiaoyu there, saw that he just listened to it once, he could remember seven, seven, eighty, eight, and he liked his cleverness in his heart, and after getting along for a while, he felt that this child was simple and honest and cute, so he accepted him as a godson.
Speaking of which, Zhang Hong also sighed, if such a smart child does not enter the palace, he may be able to take the imperial examination outside the palace and become a big official, it is a pity, although Mu Yanxu has abolished the rule that the palace people in the palace are not allowed to read and write, and also encourages them to read and write, but as a eunuch, it is useless to learn rich and five cars!
Gu Wan looked at the child Xiaoyu carefully, and always felt a little kind, but there are so many people in the world who look like it, a little eunuch, she didn't care too much, she only asked Baosheng to send him a purse with fine embroidery, and also gave him a handful of golden melon seeds.
Xiaoyu's father-in-law was not polite, took it generously, and left.
That cart of ice, Gu Wan asked Baosheng to take it and send some to the surrounding households, which can be regarded as a favor. She is not short of ice, and in the summer, she started to sell ice in her shop for business, but she is still happy that Mu Yanxu can think about her son.
Life in Zhuangzi is comfortable and stable, from time to time he invites three or five friends, appreciates huā to compose poems, chats about gossip, and teases his son, not feeling lonely at all, it seems that in the blink of an eye, a few months of time have slipped by.
I have been living in Zhuangzi until winter, and I lived until Mu Yanzhao couldn't sit still, and forcibly packed Gu Wan and the child back to the palace, and Gu Wan ended this rare leisure time unsatisfied.
In the blink of an eye, it was winter.
The winter of Yonghui's eighth year was earlier than in previous years, and the snow fell early, on this day, Lamei opened a yard, and the pink plum petals flew in the wind, Mu Qiyi entered the palace early in the morning, Gu Wan drew a few strokes, and turned out the wool stored at home to take the little girls under her hands to make a few new pairs of cotton shoes and leather boots.
At noon, Mu Yanzhao returned home, his face was a little weird, and his eyes were a little embarrassed.
As soon as he entered the door, he first swept the snow on his shoulders, and then picked up Brother Liu'er, who was lying on the couch and resting, in a daze.
Gu Wan was taken aback and exclaimed, "What's wrong?" ”
Mu Yanzhao sighed, rested his son, who was sleeping in a daze and rubbing his eyes and grinning at him, on his lap, touched his red and soft face, and pulled his daughter-in-law to sit down, thinking for a long time before frowning: "...... The eldest brother discussed with me today, saying that he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to have an heir, and he wanted me to pass on my brother to him. ”
Gu Wan's hand shook, the needle poked her finger, and a long string of blood beads came out, Mu Qi hurriedly grabbed it, put it in his mouth, and said in a loud voice: "It's not decided yet, the eldest brother is just thinking about it, if you don't want to, the eldest brother won't force it." ”
Mu Yanzhao didn't feel good in his heart, his son, where would he really be willing to pass on to others, even if that person was the eldest brother of his own son-in-law, but when he thought of it, his son would no longer be able to call himself a father or a mother from now on, in front of outsiders, they still had to abide by etiquette and not break the rules, Mu Qi's heart was like a knife.
The eldest brother may also be able to think of his own difficulties, and he is quite hesitant when he speaks.
But that's his eldest brother, Mu Qi smiled bitterly, that's the eldest brother who raised him as a son, the eldest son of the Mu family, and the current saint, the emperor is empty under his knees, if he has no children, he has to have a stepchild no matter what, and he is closest to the eldest brother ...
