When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 500 The first day of the first year of Yan ()

During dinner, the news that Wu Xiaoye was pregnant still spread out of Tong County.

Soon, all parties heard the news.

Among them, the first to know were the two women who had been working beside Xin Qu.

One was Guo Yao. As soon as she heard that Wu Xiaoye was pregnant, she rushed over to take care of her. After all, she was the one who stayed in the center of power on behalf of Xin Qu's uncle's family.

The other one was Xue Ji. She picked up Luan Zhi and came to Xin Qu's residence after class. When she heard the news, she was stunned for a long time. She felt sour and didn't know what to say.

The gap between the two is getting wider and wider.

Luan Zhi, who was holding Xue Ji's hand, also noticed her emotional changes, but didn't say anything.

Luan Pheasant is now almost six years old.

During these years in the palace, although Xinqu recognized him as his adopted son and arranged for people to teach him carefully, Luan Pheasant's life was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface when Xinqu was out of sight.

In the school, where a group of aristocratic children go to school, they compete for their father's strength.

Luan Zhi's father was Xin Qu in name, but after all he was just an adopted son. In the eyes of these powerful and powerful aristocratic children who had not completely left their original class but had begun to adapt to their status, Luan Zhi was nothing more than a fox pretending to be a tiger.

Although he was not beaten, the cold violence in words and the low self-esteem of being looked down upon gave birth to his unexpected maturity and aloofness.

Except for talking when he sees Xin Qu, other times he mostly uses physical actions.

Xue Ji noticed Luan Zhi's slightly tightened hand, and her mood quickly calmed down. There must still be a chance. A king cannot only have one woman.

Otherwise, no one can bear the price of extermination.

What's more, now that Wu Xiaoye is pregnant, they will definitely not be able to get together again. With her always around, there will be more opportunities.

However, Xue Ji glanced at Luan Pheasant. He was also a burden to her now, and she could not let Luan Pheasant become a burden to her.

Besides, it's not my responsibility to take care of him, and he's not Xin Qu's biological son.

At first it was just to appease the Lai family, but now the Lai family basically can't make a big splash. For Xinqu, there is no need to keep him.

Staying for too long may cause unnecessary political crisis.

Thinking of this, Xue Ji had some thoughts.

In Youxin's family, banquet standards and family dinner standards are two different things.

The standard of the banquet is to share meals, while the family dinner is just a table of eight immortals placed over there, and the whole family eats together.

It’s rare that today’s family dinner includes Wu Xiaoye.

"Everyone, sit down." Xin Qu helped Wu Xiaoye over and also greeted Guo Yao, who followed Wu Xiaoye.

Guo Yao smiled and found his usual seat to sit, while Xue Ji diligently made food for everyone.

The dishes are also complete.

Xin Qu smiled and introduced today's dishes to Wu Xiaoye. They were all fresh meat and vegetables, and they also stewed golden pheasant in a casserole.

It smells delicious when opened.

"Come on, come on." Xin Qu got soup for Wu Xiaoye and pulled off the chicken legs, "Take a good supplement. You need to eat a certain amount for a period of time, and don't stay up late. You should rest when the time comes.

Your biggest task now is to take good care of yourself so that your children can grow up healthily with you. "

"Yes." Wu Xiaoye smiled happily.

"And yours." Xinqu pulled off another chicken leg and put it on Luan Pheasant.

"Thank you, foster father." Luan Zhi quickly thanked him.

"They all said don't be like this... forget it, just do what you want if you like." Xin Qu gave up preaching and did not continue to say anything. Instead, he continued to talk to Wu Xiaoye, "By the way, I have been thinking about it all afternoon. , Taichang Qing has a lot of work, and you tend to lose energy quickly when you are pregnant. I will arrange a young minister for you as a helper. "

"Then have you chosen who?" Wu Xiaoye also thought it was okay. Now she was full of thoughts about the baby in her belly. She just hoped that the baby would be born safely and grow up healthily, so she had no doubt about Xin Qu's words.

"I'm still thinking about it. If you have a candidate, you can mention it to me and I'll think about it." "What do you think of Guo Yao?" Wu Xiaoye said directly without avoiding others.

Guo Yao, who was dealing with chicken wings, raised his head in confusion, his watery eyes widened: "Huh?"

"No, this girl's temperament can't stand this kind of rigidity."

"Ah, yes! Brother Qu understands me!" Guo Yao nodded repeatedly, looking excited.

Taichang Qing's job is not something ordinary people can do.

Although Xin Qu eliminated the strategy of human sacrifice, it also indirectly led to the elongation of the process and steps of the sacrifice.

Just bathing and changing clothes, prohibiting open fires, and prohibiting meat and fish were simply torture for Guo Yao.

Not to mention that there are other steps after that, which are even more shocking. Her lively temperament can't stand the thought of being disciplined into a strict look.

Therefore, he would rather not have this position than get involved.

"Then I'll ask other people then." Wu Xiaoye obviously wouldn't have thought that Xin Qu wanted to use gentle means to reduce her sacrificial rights.

Xinqu thought for a moment and said, "Then ask Uncle Tu?"

Wu Xiaoye's smile remained unabated: "Uncle Tuo, yes. I'll go ask, but there are too many sacrifices to do. Uncle Tuo is getting old, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for him. You have to match Uncle Tuo with a young man."

"Okay, I'll take a look then."

Xinqu said nothing.

Feng Yu is now the most suitable person to succeed Wu Xiaoye besides Shu Yan.

But the biggest problem is that he is really old.

Feng Yu suddenly didn't show up three years ago because he was seriously ill. He didn't recover until the second half of last year.

But the energy is not what it used to be.

Jiang Shi also knew that Feng Yu was suitable, but he was the one who looked after Feng Yu's illness, and he knew best that Feng Yu's abilities were less than half of his peak.

Although they are all people from the Changxin family.

But Feng Yan is really not suitable at this stage, so Jiang Shi chose to bring up Shu Yan to express his attitude to Xin Qu.

He agreed with the complete Xin family after the merger. Shu Yan was the most suitable candidate at this stage regardless of his status or family background.

The tone was set, and Xin Qu's smile became a little brighter.

Wu Xiaoye was able to raise her baby with peace of mind, completely deconstructing the functions of the witch, and also took the opportunity to improve the echelon construction of the Taichang Temple organization, accomplishing multiple things with one stone.

So in a harmonious atmosphere, dinner was finished.

Xin Qu still had government affairs to deal with, so Guo Yao volunteered to accompany Wu Xiaoye, and Luan Pheasant was also taken away by Wu Xiaoye. After all, she was pregnant, and the secretion of hormones made her motherly and caring. Luan Pheasant never showed up when eating. When I spoke, I felt a little pitiful and still felt distressed.

After all, he is just a child.

So Xue Ji finally found the opportunity to stay with Xin Qu.

She organized some documents and then watched Xin Qu flipping through the bamboo slips.

It was very expensive to make bamboo slips at this time, so the writing had to be concise and meaningful.

But many people still can't adapt, so the articles are written in a mess, making them dizzy every time.

No wonder writing famous articles was the job of saints in ancient times. In the pair of bamboo slips in front of him, nine out of ten sentences had ambiguous words, confusing expressions, and even a lot of typos. He almost smashed the bamboo slips in his hand in anger several times. .

Xin Qu became more and more impatient and put down the article: "It seems that we are going to open a cram school. At least we should fix the format of the official document, otherwise it will be a big headache for them to write in such random ways!"

Xue Ji raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and she realized that the opportunity had come.
