Chapter 356 Good Relationship
On the way back to the palace with Lu Cheng that night, He Changan leaned on Lu Cheng's shoulder, remembering what Lu Keyi had said about this palace test before, and couldn't help but be a little curious, whether this new champion was Gu Ziheng, Aunt Gu's nephew.
When Lu Cheng heard her question, he was still a little surprised: "Haven't you rarely asked about this matter recently? I would have told you the news a long time ago when I was the Bai family! Although this Gu Ziheng was from a poor family, he was really a good material for learning. At a young age, he advanced and retreated to a certain extent, and he was quite gentlemanly. Back then, he refused to accept Huang Laoshangshu's financial help, and I knew that this son would become a great weapon in the future. As I expected. β
"I heard that he refused his father's marriage to Zhurun's sister in the main hall, saying that he already had a sweetheart?" Compared with Gu Ziheng's academic achievements, He Changan was still more interested in these children's affections: "Then this woman is lucky, this Gu Ziheng did not learn from Zhang Sheng, who lost Cui Yingying." Otherwise, there will be two more tragedies in this world. β
"Speaking of which, the woman in Gu Zhuangyuan's mouth who met in Weimo, you still know her, and you have a good relationship with you!" Lu Cheng smiled: "You really don't listen to things outside the window, and you only read the parenting scriptures!"
He Changan first punched Lu Cheng unhurriedly, and then said: "Isn't my parenting scripture for your children? β
Lu Cheng hurriedly begged for mercy: "Who else can look at someone with a strange temper like Gu Ziheng, except for Miss Zhu Jiajiu?"
After thinking about it, he was afraid that He Changan would blame him for not being able to speak clearly, so he told the ins and outs of the whole thing: "Knowing these things was originally a coincidence. Since your younger brother and sister moved away from Gongchangbo's Mansion, I thought that it was not that she couldn't live with your He family, and that she was a weak woman, how could she make a living under the roots of the imperial city, so she naturally had to find a way to take care of her. Later, I found out that before she got married, she used her private room to buy the book with Miss Zhu Jiajiu. The book bar is a thing that has never been heard of or seen, but I didn't expect that a place to read books can also drink tea and eat snacks, listen to the piano, and even have a special notebook for sale, and it has become a rather elegant existence in the imperial capital for a while, not to mention supporting yourself, even if you have no worries about food and clothing in the second half of your life. After being there for a long time, I found that Gu Zhuangyuan always had to go to the book bar for two days out of three days, and he always had a special room every time he went......"
Listening to Lu Cheng's chatter so much, He Changan was also sincerely happy for Li Lin and Zhu Yan, she always felt that Zhu Yan was the daughter of the Zhu family's most ancestor and business-minded, but it was a pity that her childhood was bumpy and suffered a lot. Fortunately, now everything has come out, and she has found someone who treats her sincerely.
With King Ping's family completely moving out of the imperial capital, the turmoil caused by King Ping's request has gradually subsided. Many ministers are secretly speculating whether Emperor Longqing will take such an opportunity to let all four adult princes go out of Beijing to become vassals, or let three sons become vassals, leaving one alone in the imperial capital. If you look at it from the heart, they naturally hope that it is the latter case, because the one who remains, even if there is no clear will to be the crown prince, at least it occupies a very heavy weight in the emperor's heart, and it is very likely to become the next monarch.
However, the prince who went out to be a vassal was the only one, King Ping. Even the four princes who are dedicated to cooking and are called the princes of imperial cuisine in the imperial capital did not become vassals.
As He Chang'an got bigger and bigger, in order to facilitate Jiang Ming's invitation, Lu Cheng simply set up a small courtyard in King Qin's Mansion and took Jiang Ming and Jin Na's family over. Jiang Ming still has to go to the palace often, Jin Nafu sings with the wife, and also learns a lot of medical skills from Jiang Ming, usually takes care of He Chang'an's fetus in the house, and also takes care of the bodies of several children. The deficit brought by Zhao Ge'er from the mother's womb when he was born, under the conditioning of the medicinal diet prescription prescribed by Jin Na, is getting better day by day, and he looks like a white and chubby child.
Mrs. Jiang has always been worried about Jin Na only giving birth to a daughter, and Jin Na would have been quite concerned about it earlier. But in the past two years, the old lady has a resolute attitude towards her son, no matter whether Jin Na can have a son or not, she will definitely not take a concubine, and her attitude towards this daughter-in-law has eased a lot - after all, if you want to hold your grandson, in the end, it still has to fall on Jin Na: "Children are fate between parents, if the fate is not enough, you can't ask for it." I want to open it now, if I am destined to have no children, I will have Niuniu with me, and when she is older, I will recruit a son-in-law, and the two of us will not be old and helpless. By the way, Chang'anβ"
According to the rules, Jin Na should call He Changan a princess, but He Changan always felt that she was only willing to treat Jin Na as a friend in her selfish heart, not Lu Cheng's wife, so she was unwilling to let Jin Na be polite, and Jin Na herself was not such a person who talked about vulgarity, so she was worthy of her name according to He Changan's meaning.
"Huh?" He Changan was still immersed in Jin Na's previous sentence "Children are the fate between their parents", she thought, it is indeed fate, like the relationship between her and Lu Cheng, it is a good fate, so the three daughters are all healthy and healthy. Between her and Lu Yuan in the previous life, between He Ping'an and Lu Yuan in this life, it should probably be a bad fate, even her unborn child, and Lu Yu, who was born speechless and was poisoned by He Ping'an's own hands, there is no way to be safe and smooth.
Jin Na asked with concern: "I asked Jiang Ming whether your baby is male or female, and he said that you refused to let him help you judge, but in this case? You are now more than eight months pregnant, and at this time, the judgment should be accurate, why do you keep breaking it?"
He Changan shook his head dejectedly: "Forget it, I'm afraid I'm afraid that I will be disappointed after the break." Jin Na, I can't compare to you, Jiang Ming can have no son, and you can also recruit a son-in-law for Niuniu in the future, but the prince of our family can't...... It's not that I'm patriarchal, I don't like Rongtai and the three of them, it's just that the prince ......"
Jin Na took He Changan's hand and gently stroked the back of her hand with one hand: "I understand, Brother Zhao is a concubine in the end, you want to add a concubine to the prince, but you can't put too much pressure on yourself." You and the prince are still young, even if this child does not get their wish, there is still a chance to have another birth. β
He Chang'an's heart ached, how could she not know that she still had a chance? But with the arrival of King Ping, the situation had calmed down on the surface, but in fact, secretly, it was already becoming more and more tense. Lu Cheng was afraid that she would be worried, and when he chatted with her, he mostly reported good news and not bad news, but she was a woman in the end, and her mind always had to be more delicate. Lu Cheng didn't say anything, but his brows tightened more and more, more and more time in the outer study, and less and less time to return home from the palace, how could she not feel it?
It's just that she didn't tell Lu Cheng either, she would rather Lu Cheng not know that she was worried about him, otherwise Lu Cheng would worry about her thinking too much, which would add a few more points to his original pressure.
"Ahh But I've been touching your veins for a long time, and your fetus should be a son out of ten!"
"Really?" The haze in He Chang'an's heart also dissipated a lot because of Jin Na's words.
"I learned the technique of breaking men and women from Jiang Ming, and I have also broken some wives of my father's subordinates before, and I have never gone wrong. It's just that I don't have as much experience as Jiang Ming, so I don't dare to talk so much. Let's take a look at your belly shape, is it not the same as the first three? How about it, do you want to wait for Jiang Ming to take a look at it before he is on duty?"
He Changan nodded, and shook his head again: "Forget it, there is still more than a month left to go, and he will be born." At that point, everything will be clear. I won't talk about it, only you and I know. If it is spread that my baby is a sister-in-law, it will definitely attract another bloody storm. β
Jin Na also agreed: "It's okay to do this, it's always safer." If some ill-intentioned people want to use the topic to play, it will be detrimental to you and your children. β
The two of them settled down, and this matter was no longer known to the third party, whether it was Lu Cheng or Jiang Ming, let alone other people. He Changan suddenly felt a wave of nausea in his abdomen, opened the jar on the table and wanted to touch a sour plum to press it, but found that there was only one sour plum left in the altar, and he couldn't help but smile: "But I will be pregnant, and the sour plum is not old or young, you see, this jar was sent by my mother a month and a half ago, and it has bottomed out so quickly, it seems that when I have to let the silver needle go back to help me get it, I hope it can really be as you say." β
As soon as the words fell, a knock came from outside the door: "Princess, the Bofu sent Xiao Yang to steward over there, saying that Mrs. estimated that there should not be much left of your sour plums, so she specially pickled it and brought it to you." In addition to the sour plums, there was also a letter sent by the eldest young master from Pingyang Mansion. Madame said that the eldest young master had explained, and this letter must be sent to the princess. β
Compared with sour plums, He Jiaqing's letter was a bigger surprise for He Changan: "Calculating the time, the eldest brother should be able to return to the imperial capital in another year and a half, and I don't know if Brother Fan'er has grown taller." Oh, when they come back, I'm afraid that Brother Fan won't know my aunt. β
