After learning about this, Mr. Yuan almost became so angry that he vomited blood. If Madam hadn't tried her best to stop him, he might have rushed down the mountain, either strangled his naughty child to death, or dragged his nameless son-in-law and shouted, "You're blind." If you don't drive this guy who deceives his teachers and destroys his ancestors out of the capital, why don't you let him lay eggs?
His son was incompetent, but Yuan Baoer used the family skills as a game, and he learned 80% of them. Although when it comes to hexagrams and hexagrams, I have learned a tune and a half. He even suffered a big loss when he was trying to find a husband for himself through divination. But with his Feng Shui and celestial phenomena, there is a faint tendency to catch up with him. It's just that Yuan Baoer is a girl after all, and she can't afford the Yuan family's inheritance.
Although I have no preference for boys over girls, a girl is a girl after all. It was too late to pamper her, so how could she be willing to go through so much trouble for her? But when he thought that his thoughts were on side businesses, the real family business was passed down to a son who was in shambles and no one could inherit his legacy. Yuan Zhizheng could only shake his head and lamented that the Yuan family might not succeed. unmanned.
In fact, Yuan Zhizheng didn't know the real reason why the Yuan family had no successors. After all, I was too doting on my sons. Except for the eldest son who was destined to inherit the mantle, the other sons were reluctant to force them to learn things that they didn't dare to be interested in. As a result, now, my son is the one with the most ancestors in the past, but he doesn't even have a mantle to inherit.
After walking and thinking all the way, Yuan Zhizheng stopped until he reached the outside of his daughter's room. When he arrived at the door, he didn't walk in immediately. Instead, he stood quietly in the courtyard for a long time before pushing the door open and entering. Looking at me lying on the bed, I have been vomiting since I was pregnant. Even though I am already seven or eight months pregnant, I am still very pregnant and I almost vomit everything I eat.
After these days of hard work, not only was her belly not big, but she was also so thin that her originally round face was now a little spiky, and her daughter sighed slightly. After another day of vomiting, Yuan Zhizheng finally managed to sleep with his daughter. He checked her pulse carefully and shook his head to his wife, who was already in the house and was looking at her daughter worriedly. Yuan Zhizheng told her not to worry.
Suddenly I remembered that on the day of the accident, when I said I was going to find my husband, I took the compass I had extorted from me and went out for my daughter for a whole day. I came back very late, stumbling over the wall with disheveled clothes. He could tell at a glance that his daughter's body was ruined, and after repeated questioning, he found out what happened to her. The wife fainted immediately, while the sons were carrying swords and wanted to take revenge.
Yuan Zhizheng could only softly instruct a few maids to serve her carefully before dragging his worried wife out of his daughter's bedroom. Walk into the courtyard. The wife, who comes from a scholarly family and has not even blushed with her husband for so many years since their marriage, now glared at her husband and said, "Just get used to it. I can't stand a girl practicing martial arts."
"I can tolerate being homeless and running around all day. But now, she willfully insists on keeping this child and has tortured herself into this state. How can I endure it? I wanted to go to the palace to find the emperor. , you refused to let me tell you, and even moved your family back to Shaanxi overnight. Now it is rumored that the King of England is going to marry the princess of Guilin County, what will happen to our baby? "
"Could it be that the innocent daughter of our family has to guard this child and spend her whole life alone without even a title? If you, the father, don't step forward, I, the mother, cannot ignore this matter. Wait until the child is born. After we get down, I will carry the child to the capital to file a lawsuit against the imperial court. If the emperor does not give us an explanation to the Yuan family, I will hold the child and bump him to death outside the main gate of Li."
Looking at his somewhat agitated wife, Yuan Zhizheng gently held her in his arms, sighed slightly and said: "Ruowei, you feel sorry for Bao'er, don't I feel sorry for Bao'er? You want to beg for Bao'er?" An explanation, and I don’t want to ask for an explanation for my daughter. She is the apple of our Yuan family’s eye, and the only daughter in the three generations of my Yuan family.”
"I have never said a harsh word since I was a child. In terms of family background, our Yuan family is no less than his Guilin County Prince's Mansion. In terms of appearance, our Bao'er is also pretty and charming, and I am sure he will not be inferior to that county's family either. Lord. If the lawsuit really goes to the Emperor, I won’t be afraid. But I have no choice. Which one do you think I should care about, a treasure, or our Yuan family with hundreds of members?"
After hearing her husband's words, the originally angry wife suddenly calmed down after thinking about something. Looking at her husband, she said unsteadily after a long time: "Could it be that what you told me after Bao'er became pregnant are all true? There is really going to be chaos in this world, and the national destiny of the Qi Dynasty has come to an end. ? Husband, you are not lying to me."
Regarding his wife's half-belief and doubt, Yuan Zhizheng smiled bitterly: "It's not that a big chaos is going to happen, but that the chaos is about to start. I have already told Jichen to order all the Taoist temples under my Yuan family to close their doors from tomorrow and secretly stockpile food. With medicine. Bao'er is staying in the Yuan family now. Even if he can only guard the child for the rest of his life, he still has to go and be buried with the Tian family."
"If I hadn't performed the hexagram more than a dozen times with this result, do you think I would really face my daughter being bullied and remain indifferent? Entering the Tianjia now is equivalent to entering a pit of fire. You are also a person who has read many poems and books. , Do you also know that in the past dynasties, the emperor's family that was subjugated had a good end? If nothing else, when the former Tang Dynasty was subjugated, the fate of those princesses and princesses is a lesson for others. "
"If you really love Bao'er, don't go to the emperor, let alone let others know that this child belongs to the King of England. Why did I find out that Bao'er was pregnant, and then Bao'er decided to keep the child. Even if you decide to move from Hanzhong Mansion back to Zhongnan Mountain, no one knows that it is a Taoist temple under my Yuan family to live in seclusion? I did this just to save this child's life."
"We also want to save our baby's life, even if she has to live alone for the rest of her life. Because once the national fortunes of the Daqi Dynasty really come to an end, and it is spread that this child is of the blood of the previous dynasty, their mother-in-law and even our Yuan family will be full. This will The lives of hundreds of families cannot be saved. How can those high-ranking people who allow others to snore next to their beds really sleep if they do not remove the root?
"This is our dynasty. Although it has been more than a hundred years since the founding of the country, it has never given up hunting down the remnants of the previous dynasty? As long as we find a descendant of Li Tang, even if we know it is fake, even if he is just a beggar now, All the men were executed, and the women either did not enter the palace and became slaves for life, or were exiled to Longyou to fend for themselves. Even those who had given him money would be implicated."
"Do you really want me to take risks with the lives of Bao'er, mother and son, the Yuan family, young and old, and hundreds of years of foundation, knowing the outcome? Ruowei, I love Bao'er no more than You're bad. But I can't help it when it comes to which is more important. Also, when it comes to the hexagram of King Ying, I don't understand it very well."
"But I will be in seclusion for a period of time in two days, so that after Bao'er is born, I can go all out to give birth to Bao'er and her son. If the way of heaven is really like this, it cannot be saved by human power alone. We can only accept our fate. Besides, there is no other way. Don't worry, even if it can't be changed, I will protect our baby and I will never let her suffer any injustice."
Yuan's wife, who was nestling in Yuan Zhizheng's arms, looked at her husband's frown, then at her daughter's closed door, and sighed softly: "What an injustice. Maybe this is Bao'er's fate. If we had watched If we were stricter, this would not happen. The King of England looked gentle and gentle, but no one expected that he would turn out to be a beast."
Yuan Zhizheng did not answer his wife's comment. But after feeling the cool breeze in the mountains at night, he hugged his petite wife tighter. They have been married for more than thirty years and have always been in love. It can be said that apart from today, for the sake of the future of their daughter and the child in her belly, the couple has never been red-faced.
Huang Qiong, who was busy with government affairs in the capital, would naturally not know about what happened thousands of miles away in the Zhongnan Mountains. He didn't even know that Yuan Baoer, who was pregnant with his own child and could not be found after that incident, would actually be hiding in this small Taoist temple in the mountains to wait for delivery. In more than two months, a new child will be born.
Although she was about to get married, Huang Qiong found that she had no way to intervene in her own marriage. Not only did the emperor pile up a lot of government affairs for him every day, but Huang Qiong, who also had to deal with the chaos in Shanxi, had no energy to deal with his own marriage. Moreover, his old emperor did not intend to let him interfere. All matters are handled personally by the palace and the Ministry of Etiquette.
Huang Qiong is like a puppet on strings, just showing up when needed. For this wedding, Huang Qiong didn't even have to worry about how much the betrothal gift would be. As for the dowry list given by the other party, none of it fell into his hands. Although I also know that the game behind my marriage is probably everywhere. Even betrothal gifts and dowries will become part of the game.
But it is simply impossible to say that Huang Qiong feels comfortable. There are many political marriages in the world, especially in the families of the rich and powerful. No daughter-in-law is married, and no daughter is married off for nothing. Even the Tian family has a hard time escaping this law. Throughout the dynasties, how many princesses have been given out as gifts for marriage?
Huang Qiong also knew that he couldn't run away from this kind of thing. But he couldn't escape, and his marriage turned into a battlefield for gambling, which was what Huang Qiong didn't want to see. When Huang Qiong thought of his own emperor, he was helpless. It’s not like I haven’t fought hard to take the initiative in the marriage into my own hands.
But no matter what Huang Qiong says, the old man will always have a word waiting for him. I will handle this matter myself. Why don't you worry? Would I have treated my son and daughter-in-law badly? In just a few words, all Huang Qiong's next words were easily silenced. Even though he gritted his teeth a bit when he said the latter sentence, he still let go.
Huang Qiong had no choice but to give up all his plans. As the wedding date drew closer, Huang Qiong not only did not want to celebrate the wedding at all, but she became more and more irritable. Seeing that there were only five more days until the day of adoption, Huang Qiong's heart became more and more depressed. Huang Qiong, who was really a little irritable after just dealing with the military information sent from Shanxi, thought of putting down his pen and going to the Imperial Garden to relax.
But he didn't expect that in the Imperial Garden, he happened to meet Princess Yong, Queen Mother Zhuang, who was walking in the Imperial Garden. She and the lady from He Mansion were walking by the lake and chatting in a low voice. The two seemed to be very familiar. I sent a young eunuch to inquire and found out that the lotus flowers in the imperial garden were now in full bloom. Today, Concubine Zhuang invites her future in-laws to come and enjoy the lotus together.
