blue bird song

Chapter 91 Mother is more valuable than child (2)
Both the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother pointed at King Jin and couldn't help laughing, "You little rascal." King Jin smiled and bowed, "Grandmother, mother, when you see brother, you must ask for a big reward for A Yuan." The two amused Laugh again.King Jin chatted and laughed with him for a while, then left.

King Jin's arrival brought Empress Zhang surprise, sorrow, and fear.I have been married for three years without any movement, and she has only been married for a few months, so that's it!Could it be that this woman who was a general and used to go to the front line is really very strong and easy to conceive.She is a general, but she is married to a prince!There are not many princes who rebelled in this dynasty. If the prince marries a general, how can the emperor in Beijing rest in peace?Relying on His Majesty's kindness and generosity, she and King Jin don't know what to do.Now she is happy again, she is happy so soon... Empress Zhang is in a mess.

Going to Concubine Shao, King Jin was in a hurry—Concubine Shao heard that Qingque was pregnant for two months, she shed tears of joy, and King Jin wanted to coax her and wipe her tears, so he was very busy.

After all, Concubine Shao stopped crying, and raised her face to look at him eagerly, "Ah Yuan, what are you planning to have?"

King Jin rubbed his nose, "We haven't discussed it yet."

"If you want me to say, you should give birth to a little A Yuan." Concubine Shao suggested with a wry smile, "This time Mr. is a little A Yuan, and next time, I will give birth to a little bird! Then, next time, I will give birth to a little A Yuan... ..."

King Jin was dizzy when he heard that, he bowed his hands to her solemnly, and said solemnly: "We will do our best." Concubine Shao patted him with satisfaction, "My son." To take good care of Qingque, King Jin liked to hear this, and agreed one by one.

Back at Prince Jin's Mansion, I saw Master Mistress, Yingniang and Qi Yu all came, Siniang and Yingniang sat next to Qing Que, earnestly teaching the scriptures on raising children.Even though Qi Yu was sitting far away, he looked at Qing Que with gentle eyes.

As soon as King Jin came, the mistress beckoned to him, "Ah Yuan, come here, I just finished telling my little apprentice, it's your turn." Yingniang also laughed, "I'm going to be a father, and there's a lot to learn, let's give a general introduction first." Tell me." King Jin hurriedly sat down in front of them and listened attentively.

While listening, he flirted with Qing Que.

Seeing that he was not paying attention, Mistress gave him a hard look, "A Yuan!" He hurriedly sat upright with a solemn expression, "Auntie, A Yuan, listen, listen."

Qi Yu watched coldly, feeling happy for Qing Que and worried for A Yang.Sisters born to the same mother, the elder sister married well, the younger sister should not be bad, right?But Ayan... Well, Ayan has bad luck.

Ayang never said, "I like Deng Zhihan, I want to marry Deng Zhihan", she just bit her to death, "Just find me someone who is better than Deng Zhihan. He is more handsome and good-looking than him, more talented than him, and better than his family background." Alright, beat him in everything!"

Xue Hu once blurted out, "Yes, Zhang Hu! The British government is two blocks better than the Ningguo government. Zhang Hu is more than three points more handsome than Deng Zhihan, and he is much more capable than Deng Zhihan!"

A Yang pouted contemptuously, "Zhang Hu is so old, he is more than ten years older than me!" The implication was that even if Zhang Hu came to propose marriage, she would not be happy.

Xue Hu and others felt frustrated. It seemed that she really liked Deng Zhihan.

Qi Yu had a terrible headache.Not only Qi Yu, but also Xue Neng, Xue Hu and his son didn't know what to do. They had doted on A Yang for a long time, and they couldn't bear to force her or force her.

Qi Yu looked at Qing Que with a joyful smile on his face, at the loving Mistress and Ying Niang beside Qing Que, and the jade-like King Jin in front of Qing Que, with a bitter smile on his lips.Ayang, it would be great if you could be like a blue sparrow.

Shi Niang, Ying Niang and Qi Yu stayed for a long time, and each explained a couple of things, and Fang reluctantly left.

After seeing them off, Qing Que excitedly walked back and forth in front of King Jin, with her head held high, "Mother is more expensive than a child, worth a hundred times!" Even my fairy lady came to see me, her eyes were as gentle as water !This is pregnant with a child, it is really different, different.

King Jin flattered gently, "Even if Niuniu is not pregnant with a baby, in the eyes of the fourth brother, she is still a priceless treasure." Qing Que patted her belly proudly, "But, if you are pregnant with a baby, the weight is even heavier, right?"

That's for sure, the baby will grow up day by day, and the weight of being a mother will definitely be heavy.

King Jin put his hand on his wife's lower abdomen, and said softly, "Niu Niu said so."

Qingque was extremely proud.

The next day, King Jin was called into the palace by the emperor.The King of Jin asked for a reward as soon as they met, "Brother, A Yuan is happy, please give me a congratulatory gift." The emperor looked at him with a smile, "After A Yuan got married, he became very greedy. You were not like this before. .”

King Jin coughed, "Well, when you become a family, you not only need to support yourself, but you also need to support your wife and children in the future. Brother, I can't do business. After thinking about it, the only way to make money is to reach out to you .”

Members of the royal family are not allowed to do business, and are not allowed to compete with the people for profit.This cannot be said to be wrong, because if members of the royal family can do business, they will definitely not compete fairly with ordinary merchants, and will definitely crowd out the interests of ordinary merchants.

The emperor said brightly, "You are still reasonable."

King Jin solemnly said, "Brother, Ah Yuan is the most reasonable!"

The emperor's smile gradually became bitter, "A Yuan, if you give birth to a son, you can adopt it to your elder brother." King Jin was taken aback, and hurriedly covered his stomach tightly, his eyes widened, "No! No!"

Seeing him like this, the emperor felt very bitter at first, and couldn't hold back his joy, "Why are you covering your stomach? What's in your stomach?" King Jin blushed, and put down his hands embarrassingly, "It's nothing, it's nothing. "

King Jin bowed his head in shame for a moment, looked up at the emperor, and said seriously: "Brother, I know that you want a concubine in the middle palace. There is no good news yet, you should still be a concubine! You have no children, and the country is not stable."

The emperor was very moved when he saw his sincerity.The queen also vaguely mentioned, "The king of Jin has a noble status, and if he marries a princess who holds military power, what if he has a different heart...?" Will not do dirty things.

If Ah Yuan has a different heart, why wait until today?When the first emperor was around, he should have thought about it a long time ago. "Father is not in a good mood, brother will come in after a while." "Father just drew a picture of a fairy. If brother mentions the technique of immortality, father should like to hear it." A Yuan told himself how many times he helped himself.

A Yuan, he has a simple mind when he urinates, so he doesn't understand what the queen said about ghosts and monsters.

King Jin looked at the emperor seriously and intently, and stubbornly waited for the emperor's reply.The emperor smiled, "How can it be three months or two months? Wait for another three years. If it is still the same after three years, my brother will at least want to establish a concubine and pass it on to his heirs."

King Jin muttered in a low voice, "Three years, so long? But, brother, look, there must be a reason for brother to do this."

Seeing his childish appearance, the emperor was amused and moved, "What gift does A Yuan want? Send you gold, jade, antiques, okay? I'll prepare it for my unborn child."

King Jin said very elegantly: "Calligraphy and painting are better. Brother, when the child turns three years old, I plan to personally enlighten him and teach him calligraphy and painting."

Did Ah Yuan want to train his son to become a famous calligrapher and painter, a generation of virtuous kings?Among the princes, the most respected and liked one is the virtuous king who puts his love on mountains and rivers and is obsessed with calligraphy and painting.

The emperor smiled and said, "Very good, I will follow Ayuan." Sure enough, he ordered the internal officials to take out "Chu River Qingxiao Picture" and "Yuanxiu Qingyun Picture" from the library as gifts.A Yuan has no ambitions, no desires, no desires, the child has not yet been born, and already plans to teach him to be a prince who is proficient in calligraphy and painting, and follows the rules, so let him do it.

King Jin liked it very much, "Innocent and elegant, ethereal and ever-changing, a rare masterpiece handed down from generation to generation! Brother, Mishi Yunshan, I have been secretly admiring it for many years." With a joyful smile, he put it away in person, obviously very precious.

Jin Wang graciously accompanied the emperor's brother to drink a cup of tea and play a game of chess before leaving the palace.When he returned to Jinshan Mansion, he got off the cart in front of the door. Deng Qi came galloping alone and got off the horse too.

"Not even a single guard?" King Jin was very dissatisfied, and accused him, "Son of a daughter, you can't sit still, understand? You originally brought at least two guards with you, why are you alone today?"

Deng Qi glared at him, and walked in with a resentful expression.

King Jin quickly took two steps to catch up with him, reached out his hand to hold his lapel, "Hey, stop, I have something to tell you." The guards of the palace next to him gave him a wink, and quickly drew out his waist knife, and laid it across in front of Deng Qi.

Deng Qi's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.King Jin stretched out his hand to lift his face, and patted it lightly, "Hey, smile, smile! If you go to see Niuniu with such a dark face, I won't accept you." Deng Qi stared at him for a while, squeezed out a Laughing is uglier than crying.

"How can you do this?" King Jin looked at him with accusing eyes, "Your smile scares even me, let alone Niu Niu. Let's do this, you sit in the study, and when you feel better, you will Smile, please go in again."

Without any explanation, he ordered someone to take Deng Qi to the study.Shi Shiran himself, with a smile in the corner of his eyes and a radiant face, went to see Qingque.

Qingque was holding a small blue and white fine porcelain jar, happily eating green apricots.The green apricot is green, and you can tell at a glance that it will be very brittle and sour.Seeing King Jin came back, Mimi let him in with a smile, "Fourth brother, it's delicious." King Jin ate one with her, and nodded seriously, "It really tastes very good."

Qingque was eating apricots, and King Jin told the story of the palace.Qing Que smiled and praised him, "Fourth brother is so right, it should be like this." The emperor is only in his early twenties, and his heirs are not going well for the time being, so he will never have a child.When he had his own son, hehe, where did my younger brother kiss a son?It is wise for Ah Yuan to retreat early and express his feelings.

"If in a few years, my brother still has no son, and wants to adopt our...? King Jin is a bit unfounded.

"Don't even think about it!" Qingque bit the apricot in her hand viciously, and said decisively: "Let him die by himself. If you want to snatch our son, there is no way!"

Apart from husband and wife, the closest people in the world are parents and children.It was miserable enough for me to grow up without my own parents.It's so easy to have children, but you still have to pass them on to others?Don't even kill me!
Seeing her murderous look, King Jin hurriedly agreed, "Yes, let him die by himself. It's really unreasonable to want to snatch our son!"

Qing Que got angry for a while, smiled and patted King Jin, "Fourth brother, if you see His Majesty the Emperor, you can often persuade him to make a concubine. You can't suffer, I guess, you can get a lot of rewards."

King Jin nodded knowingly, "Yes, there are all benefits but no harm."

The emperor has no children for the time being, and King Jin is the closest heir to the throne.From time to time, King Jin begged the emperor's elder brother to accept concubines and extend his heirs, how impartial and pure-hearted.The emperor will never be bored, he will only feel relieved.

Brother, you should have a few more concubines, give birth to a prince as soon as possible, comfort the late emperor's spirit in heaven, and inherit the great rivers and mountains of the celestial dynasty—is there any better way than this to show that King Jin has no covetous heart for the throne.

It would be very suspicious if the King of Jin never advised the emperor in this regard.What, you kid, do you think that the emperor has no children, and one day the throne will be your turn?

This suspicion must not be touched.

After that, the King of Jin proposed to the emperor many times to establish a concubine, but the emperor always smiled and said nothing, that is to say, he refused to accept it.However, King Jin would be rewarded very generously every time, and King Jin made a small fortune because of this. ——This is a later story.

After the two of them finished talking about the affairs in the palace, Deng Qi finally laughed and was brought in by Nanny Zhong.When Qingque saw Deng Qi, she gave in politely and enthusiastically, "It tastes good, look, I ate so much!" and handed one to Deng Qi.

Deng Qi glanced suspiciously, "It's green and green, will it taste good?" He hesitated and took a small bite, then sucked in a sour breath, "This is not an apricot, it's more sour than vinegar!"

Qing Que smiled and took the apricot from his hand and put it on the table, and told a little joke in good spirits, "When I was in Yangji, the steamed buns in the kitchen were always very sour. Her son was really sour once. I couldn't take it anymore, so I talked to her nicely, 'Mom, next time you steam the steamed buns, can you make it work without vinegar?'"

Both Deng Qi and King Jin laughed hard, "It's so cool!"

Deng Qi was really slow. After laughing a lot, he suddenly realized something was wrong: Niuniu tasted it so sour, but she enjoyed it and kept saying it was delicious!Could it be...?
Deng Qi couldn't sit still, and jumped up, "Niuniu, you can't be...?" The more he thought about it, the more he resembled it, his eyes were full of joy.

Qing Que smiled and Mimi nodded, "Yes." She took another mouthful of green apricots.

"Niu Niu, don't eat this!" Deng Qi laughed foolishly for a while, then stopped Qing Que, "There are cherries growing on our farm, which should be almost edible. Niu Niu, wait, I'll pick them now!"

Without waiting for Qingque to answer, she rushed away excitedly.

"That's not sour enough." When Qing Que said this, Deng Qi had already reached the door, as if he didn't hear it.

"Tasting green apricots for the first time, and recommending cherries for the first time", Qing Que and Jin Wang glanced at each other, and there was warmth in their eyes.No matter how out of tune Deng Qi is, he still loves Qing Que.

King Jin suddenly remembered, "He came alone, without even a guard." Qingque hurriedly said, "Ask a few people to follow him, don't be careless." King Jin nodded, and went out to pick four or five of the royal guards If they are skilled, order them to catch up with Deng Qi and escort him to Zhuangzi.The guards all agreed and hurried away.

"So careless." Qingque shook her head.I usually know how to bring guards, but what happened today, I was alone.Did something happen to make him angry?

Qingque guessed right, Deng Qi did encounter something that made him very angry and furious.

Didn't Deng Zhihan always have a wicked heart? Deng Qi loved his son eagerly, so he personally asked Xue Neng to speak for Deng Zhihan.Deng Qi was also obedient, and without talking nonsense, he repeatedly claimed, "If Ling Ai passes through the door, I will treat her like my own daughter."

An honest person like Xue Neng would not hide it. To be honest, "I don't care about the grievances between the Qi family and the Shen family. Although Ayang has the blood of the Qi family, her surname is Xue. Your son and her also It can be regarded as the right family and the same age.”

Deng Qi was overjoyed when he heard this, "You are a sensible person!"

Unexpectedly, Xue Neng's words changed, "However, that aunt of the Shen family is still your wife and Deng Zhihan's mother-in-law. It is absolutely impossible for my Ayang to recognize such a woman as her mother-in-law."

Xue Neng has always had a good temper, but this sentence was categorical.

Deng Qi was dumbfounded.If you can't recognize Shen Mo as a mother-in-law, then you still refuse to agree to the marriage.

If the two of them just said that, Deng Qi wouldn't be angry.Originally, based on the past of Deng, Xue, Qi, and Shen's families, it was so natural and reasonable that Qi Yu's daughter refused to recognize Shen Mo as her mother-in-law.

But Deng Qi was not reconciled, so he added courteously, "Brother Han's mother is in his hometown, and Brother Han is married in the capital, it's fine."

Xue Neng didn't turn a corner when he spoke, and just dropped a sentence, "Deng Zhihan will always return to his hometown to worship his ancestors, right? I still want to see you when the time comes!"

What Xue Neng said was not wrong, right? Deng Zhihan will always return to his hometown.At that time, the daughter-in-law will have to see her mother-in-law.Deng Qi thought about it for the same reason, and was annoyed, "Then, what do you think should be done?"

In fact, Xue Neng didn't need to answer his words at all, just leave this problem behind and go his own way.But Xue Neng was honest and didn't know how to play tricks, so he said the truth, "Unless he is divorced or dead."

Deng Qi was already irritable, but when he heard the truth, he blushed with annoyance.Died, died?How dare you think.Should Shen Mo take a break, or should she die? Is there any reason in the world to kill her mother-in-law in order to marry a daughter-in-law? !
Deng Qi jumped up against the case, "Don't even think about it!"

Xue Neng was so angrily reprimanded by him, his face lit up with joy, "Since you say that, let's do the marriage." He cupped his hands and walked away.

Can Deng Qi not be angry, his seven orifices are filled with smoke.
