"You can become the heir to the Duke's palace, but you have to agree to a condition: your legitimate son can inherit your title, but your bastard is not allowed to enter the court! If any of your bastards enter the court, I will immediately take out my What you have in your hands will make you lose everything!"
This was the deal that Mrs. Yi and Chen Zhuoxin reached privately when old Duke Chen Guo insisted on making Chen Zhuoxin his new crown prince.
At that time, Chen Zhuoxin was already affectionate with Chen Dongying and Chen Dongfu's mother, Sun Shi.
Chen Zhuoxin and Sun are actually a clichéd love story.
Sun's parents run a small pastry shop in the capital.
Chen Zhuoxin rarely likes Sun's dim sum and goes there often.
Sometimes we also customize some snacks with special flavors and ask the store to make them individually.
Then, the clerk in the store or shopkeeper Sun would deliver it to Chen Zhuoxin.
But that day, Chen Zhuoxin and a few friends made an appointment to go boating on the lake and recite poems. He asked shopkeeper Sun to deliver the snacks to the pier.
But that day, shopkeeper Sun fell ill, and the business in the store was very busy, and several clerks couldn't leave. Therefore, the task of delivering snacks fell on Sun.
Chen Zhuoxin remembered that at the dock that day, the young men who were traveling with him had already boarded the ship one after another.
Only he planned to wait.
When the boat was about to set off, he was about to put his feet up on the pedals when he heard a delicate voice, panting,
"Sir, please wait!"
Chen Zhuoxin turned around and saw a woman in a green shirt walking quickly towards her carrying a food box.
As he walked, he waved to him with his handkerchief.
Under the gentle breeze, the sunlight and the lake water complement each other, the woman in green has slightly raised black hair, a charming smile, curved eyebrows, and a figure like a willow. She is indescribably beautiful and endlessly bright!
It was at that moment that the love between a rich man and a beautiful girl happened.
After that, you are strong and I am strong, you are in love and I am willing.
Chen Zhuoxin was sincere in his treatment of the Sun family. He even thought at that time that it might not be a bad idea to marry this woman as the concubine of another country's prince.
His wife came from a small family, and the Yi family was actually happy to see it happen.
But later, after the "noble man" persuaded Chen Zhuoxin, Chen Zhuoxin was convinced that such a beautiful woman, who treated him so affectionately, deserved a noble status and a glorious and wealthy life for the rest of her life.
And he and her children should also be powerful and rich!
So Chen Zhuoxin decided to compete for the throne of the prince without hesitation.
At this time, because Sun knew that he was of humble origin and deeply loved Chen Zhuoxin, he willingly became his concubine.
Chen Zhuoxin originally thought that after becoming Chen Guogong, he could naturally take the Sun family into the mansion.
Unexpectedly, before the mayor of Qiqing County came to visit, two children, Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying, were born.
At this time, including now, Chen Zhuoxin did not dare to easily offend the Lord of Qiqing County and his father-in-law, the Prince of Long'an County.
Therefore, Chen Zhuoxin wanted to wait until after the wedding to take a closer look.
However, gradually, after getting married, Chen Zhuoxin had other ideas.
Chen Zhuoxin found that Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying were very smart and talented in reading.
If in the future, the two of them were detained in the back house of Chen Guogong's mansion, they would not be able to take the imperial examination even if they were literate, and they would not be able to enter the court no matter how talented they were. Wouldn't it mean that the talents of the two children were buried?
Chen Zhuoxin was extremely envious of Li Mi, Zhou Biao, Zhou Huan and others, who were not only prominent in status, but also able to control the situation in the court.
Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying were the sons of the Duke of the country. It was just that they were not good at reading or did not like reading. However, they had a photographic memory of reading and were extremely talented.
With just one promise, Chen Zhuoxin was unwilling to let his two favorite children have their talents buried for the rest of their lives.
So Chen Zhuoxin sent the mother and son away from afar, and secretly funded their lives.
But when Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying grew up to about ten years old, Chen Zhuoxin suddenly discovered a troublesome thing, that is, Chen Dongfu looked more and more like him!
Although the two of them are very talented and knowledgeable, it would be fine if they are just willing to settle for ordinary lives in a foreign country. Once they want to take the imperial examination and become officials, others will definitely notice the clues!
By that time, all Chen Zhuoxin's previous efforts will be in vain.
When his eldest son, Chen Dongfu, learned about this, he said lightly,
"Daddy, the kid knows!"
Chen Dongfu didn't have any melancholy. He found a medicine by himself, which ruined his appearance and prevented him from passing the imperial examination!
Then, without any regrets, he devoted himself to assisting Chen Dongying in his knowledge.
He is so calm and sensible that Chen Zhuoxin feels heartbroken!
And because of this, Chen Dongying fell in love with Chen Zhuoxin!
Chen Zhuoxin made two preparations for this imperial examination.
One is to use the connection between brothers Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying.
It's just that this induction is a bit illusory and not a sure thing!
If it fails, he is worried that Chen Dongying will not be able to pass the exam successfully, and his plan will be postponed for a few more years, or even more than ten years, or even decades.
So Chen Zhuoxin arranged for a few more cats to enter and leave the examination room.
Let Chen Dongying pass the test questions out, and then let the cat pass the test questions that Chen Dongfu has answered.
Chen Zhuoxin thought he had done everything perfectly, and no one could catch those cats with their own hands, let alone see the test questions passing in and out!
But I don’t know why the news leaked out?
But fortunately, Chen Zhuoxin was more skilled and let a lot of rats in before the candidates took the exam, so some officials went out to exterminate the rats with great fanfare!
In fact, his cat has already been fed the antidote in advance and will not be harmed by these rodent-killing drugs!
The reason why the Holy One pardoned Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying's sins and refused to pursue them was that Chen Zhuoxin knew that the Holy One finally believed in something like "Zhuyoushu".
Next, maybe you can consider asking brothers Chen Dongfu and Chen Dongying to help find out the secrets of Duke Li's mansion from the Ji sisters.
What happens after you find the secret?
Chen Zhuoxin also has some worries.
Which prince should he side with?
As the rift between him and Concubine Jiao Xian deepened, he made up his mind that he would not support Concubine Jiao Xian's thirteenth prince!
As for the fifth prince, he didn’t even want to get involved!
Because he always felt that the fifth prince had already understood the cause of Chen Meiren's death, and the hatred for killing his mother was irreconcilable!
Who can guarantee that the fifth prince will never know the truth?
The rest are the second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince.
Rather than saying that Chen Zhuoxin was hesitant and didn't know which side he should be on, it's better to say that he didn't know which side would win over him!
So far, no party has explicitly proposed cooperation to him.
Or perhaps, several princes thought he was Concubine Jiao Xian's "best friend"!
Chen Zhuoxin and several princes were all waiting and watching, and they didn't dare to take action rashly when they couldn't see the direction clearly!
"Good Neighbors" is now open!
The Lord of Yangxu County, the Lord of Qili County, Juqu Qingshan, Shangguan Xuesheng, Shangguan Xuebi and others, as well as the ladies of the Huai'an Marquis Mansion, all came to celebrate the opening.
Seeing the cockfight-like aura of County Master Yangxu and County Master Qili, Ji Jun wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in!
The world war is about to break out!
Who is she helping?
Ji Min tugged on Ji Jun's sleeves,
"Cousin, they are sitting at the same table!"
Along with Qi Li and Yang Xu, fifteen ladies were crowded into this table!
Although the table is set up for ten people per table, you have a good figure, so there is no need to show off like this!
As for the other two tables, there were three people sitting at each!
Ji Jun, "..."
Sister, I specially set up three banquet tables!
Don't you think it's too crowded?
I remember a philosopher once said: A competitive woman is not afraid of getting tired!
Look! These two people, with their heads full of pearls and green hair, were sitting upright. Although they were so crowded that they dared not turn around, they raised their hands and raised their heads with meticulous attention to detail!
Ji Junxin is so tired! What to do!
Haitang enthusiastically stepped forward and asked if the ladies had any "taboos" or special requirements. Yangxu said arrogantly,
“The guest does as he pleases!”
The Lord of Jili County was not willing to be outdone.
"My boss and I are relatives, so everyone has a good meal and a good drink!"
At the end, I added a sentence,
"The county chief is a royal clan member of Dazhou, but he also sympathizes with the hardships of people's livelihood. He once practiced it personally in the kitchen of a good neighbor. He knows that a porridge and a meal are not easy to come from. He is half-wit and half-wisdom. Constantly thinking about the difficulties in material resources ! Some people have been in this beautiful land for a long time, and even the delicacies from the mountains and seas are considered to be pig food. It is really hard for everyone to reconcile!"
Everyone, "..."
What does it mean?
Shaoyao said quietly,
"Miss, does the Lord of Jili County say that the rice we cook is pig food?"
Ji Jun held his forehead, and Qili wanted to ridicule Yangxu, whose eyes were higher than the top of his head, and who was indifferent to the four limbs and the five grains. However, the words did not sound good.
Shangguan Xuesheng was busy trying to smooth things over and said with a smile,
"What the County Lord said is that, in fact, as long as I can be with the County Lord, I will eat anything!"
The head of Yangxu County answered the call at the right time.
"Yes! Even if you eat pig food, you can still taste the sweetness of delicacies from mountains and seas!"
The Lord of Qili County said proudly and proudly,
“That’s my county master’s ability!”
Everyone, "..."
Can't laugh!
Ji Min looked at Ji Jun with despair on his face.
"Cousin, why don't you remove the dishes related to pigs?"
The banquet hasn’t started yet, and I can’t live without pigs. I’m worried that in the future, “pig food” will become the flagship brand of “Good Neighbors”!
Ji Jun looked calm.
"Don't be afraid! Not all those who eat pig food are pigs!"
Shaoyao looked at his two ladies with sympathy and whispered,
"How about I sing a song for them to ease the awkward atmosphere? Don't worry, it will definitely stop them from spinning around on pigs all the time!"
"Go ahead and try it!" Ji Jun said without hesitation.
Shaoyao cleared her throat and gathered everyone's attention with a tune.
"I'm sure I'm the wolf in sheep's clothing
And you are my prey and the lamb in my mouth...ugh! "
With a look from Ji Jun, Maidong quickly covered Shaoyao's mouth!
