Excellent parents are, to some extent, a plus for their children.
Take Han Ding as an example. Before he knew about the existence of the Cheng family, he saw "Zhou Qingcheng" as a stunning beauty who was a bit stupid but very self-aware.
But when he saw the letter left by Mrs. Cheng with his own eyes and went to see her again, he felt inexplicably that this woman was as wise as a fool.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Listen to what you are saying? Are you sure you're complimenting me?
However, it doesn't matter anymore.
Gu Qingcheng has always regarded Han Ding as a target of strategy. As long as he ensures that Han Ding always has a "favorability" towards him, this person's other ideas are not within the scope of Gu Qingcheng's consideration.
To put it bluntly, as long as Gu Qingcheng can live leisurely and leisurely with Han Ding as his back, Gu Qingcheng doesn't care if Han Ding treats himself as an idiot.
Huoshui: ...Sure enough, people who engage in political affairs are such a "reality".
Just like the female emperor, who was scolded by someone, she still praised that person's writing skills and blamed the prime minister for failing to use such a talent for her own use!
To put it nicely, it’s called open-minded;
To put it harshly, it means that you don’t want face and self-esteem.
"Jiaojiao, do you want to find her?"
After talking about Baiyun'an's past, Han Ding suddenly asked this question.
Gu Qingcheng thought for a while and shook her head, "No need! If she wants to find me, she will find me herself!"
And she didn't find him, or she already had a new life and didn't want to be disturbed by the past.
Either that—
No matter what the situation was, Gu Qingcheng felt that it was better not to pursue the matter any further.
Just think of it as deceiving yourself and others, leaving a beautiful fantasy in your heart.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Han Ding became more and more satisfied, so he just said, his little fool is a very wise man.
Unlike the Li mother and daughter, tsk tsk, both of them are idiots.
However, the son-changing controversy in Baiyun'an broke out, and Li's good days came to an end.
Her attempt to seize the title of Marquis was, to put it mildly, confusing the Zhou family's bloodline.
To put it more seriously, it means bullying the emperor and neglecting the superior.
After all, the princes of the Hou Mansion were all reported to the imperial court and then canonized by the emperor's grace.
Mrs. Li got a fake son to come to the Hou Mansion to be the heir apparent, and he remained so for more than ten years.
Although she seems to be "bringing order to order" recently, her behavior itself is a great disrespect to the court and the royal family!
Jing Zhaoyin heard the case clearly and sent it directly to the old emperor's court without saying a word.
The old emperor had just tidied up the Han family, which was a happy time.
Unexpectedly, someone came to ruin his good mood.
Looking at the contents of the case, the old emperor was even more furious.
Okay, for a small title in the Marquis Palace, a woman from the Li family would dare to come up with such a cunning method.
But under his butt, there are thousands of miles of land.
The concubines in the harem, especially the women with sons, may not be so bold.
The old emperor had fully expressed his anger.
There was no way he could help it. As he got older year by year, especially when he was seriously ill and had sequelae, he was extremely afraid of his sons who had grown up.
The reason why he dotes on Queen Han so much is for the sake of the Han family behind Queen Han;
Secondly, it’s because Queen Han is indeed young and beautiful;
The third reason is also the main reason: Queen Han has no children!
A woman without a son can only rely on herself as her husband.
Unlike other women in the harem, she would do anything for her son.
Li's case really hit the old emperor's lungs.
He gave direct instructions:
First, the Li family confused the blood of the Hou family, deceived the emperor, and was exiled for three thousand miles;
Second, the Marquis of Jingning and Zhou Qi were not strict in their family affairs and did not perform their duties as officials. They were deprived of their titles and demoted to common people.
The old emperor also came to drain the cauldron——
Mr. Li, aren't you just doing whatever you want for the sake of your title? I will simply cut the Zhou family into a blank slate and see if you don't regret it or vomit blood!
As for others, such as Zhou Yi who was wrongly carried, who is now Gu Yi, the old emperor did not express his anger.
After learning about Gu Yi's initiative to leave the Hou Mansion and take the initiative to recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, the old emperor even developed a slight fondness for him——
What a good boy!
Duties, rules, know how to restrain greed, and don’t covet anything that doesn’t belong to you!
Unlike his unfilial sons, they started fighting over it themselves before I even said anything.
Subsequently, Gu Yi's provincial examination and general examination all went very smoothly.
During the imperial examination, although a new emperor had been appointed, no one who was an emperor did not like his ministers to follow the rules and abide by their duties.
Therefore, Xinjun also mentioned it to him.
It's just that Gu Yi's grades were too poor. He didn't make it into the top three, but he still managed to get into the second and twenty-seventh place.
Gu Yi took the imperial examination and became an official. He was honest and diligent. Although he did not expect Chen Chen, Han Ding and others to become dazzling big shots, he still lived his life smoothly.
The two baby girls involved in the child exchange case, Zhou Qingcheng and Zhou Baozhu, were both married and were not considered Zhou family members. The old emperor generously let them go.
The Zhou family collapsed, and it was with that disgraceful crime.
Many people who were related to the Zhou family by marriage were trying to find ways to end their relationship.
Zhou Xian, the eldest aunt, is a grandmother-level person, otherwise, her in-laws will take the opportunity to divorce her and go home.
However, although Zhou Xian still stayed in her husband's family, life was very difficult.
Her husband built a small Buddhist hall at home and asked her to stay there to pray for her children and grandchildren.
Even Zhou Xian, who had been married for many years and had grandchildren, ended up like this. Some people in the capital focused on Zhou Baozhu and Zhou Qingcheng's two newly married daughters.
Especially Zhou Baozhu, she is Li's only biological daughter and has been married for less than a month.
It is said that he also has a bad temper. As soon as he went to Chen's house, he got into a temper with Chen Chen's aunt and biological mother.
Chen Chen was in a dilemma among several women.
However, after something happened to the Zhou family, Chen Chen became more and more concerned about Zhou Baozhu.
He directly gave up all the property of Duke Dingguo and left the house, taking Zhou Baozhu and his biological mother to live alone.
Zhou Baozhu was directly held in the palm of his hand and became the envy of countless ladies in the capital.
Zhou Baozhu was so proud.
He even went to Gu Qingcheng to show off.
Gu Qingcheng: ...this fool, doesn’t she know that Chen Chen is stepping on her head to become famous?
With today's "sweet pet", when Zhou Baozhu "passes away" one day, no one will doubt Chen Chen.
Sure enough, a year later, Zhou Baozhu fell seriously ill and died.
Chen Chen lost his "beloved wife" and was heartbroken.
He didn't say any grand words, but silently used actions to prove his intentions - within three years, he didn't marry again.
Therefore, before the new king ascended the throne, before he took off, he eliminated the opportunity to marry a wife who would not be of any help to him!
That year, Han Yan could not hold on anymore and closed his eyes completely. Han Yan inherited the title of Duke Chengen.
Two years later, the old emperor finally couldn't hold on any longer.
Under the influence of Queen Han, the seventh prince also behaved very well. The old emperor surpassed the previous sons and made the seventh prince the prince.
Half a month later, the old emperor passed away. That night, the first few princes took the opportunity to launch a palace coup.
No one expected that Han Ding led 30,000 elite troops into the palace and successfully annihilated the rebels.
The prince ascended the throne and Queen Han became the queen mother.
In the winter of that year, the barbarians from the northwest took advantage of the change of the old and new imperial courts to invade the border town. The new emperor surprised everyone and sent Han Ding to lead the troops in the northwest.
Everyone knows that there is a Han family army in the northwest.
However, since Han Nai fell off his horse and died, and Han Yan suffered a stroke, the Han family army has been somewhat torn apart.
And although Han Ding is a direct descendant of the Han family, he is a frail and squeamish young master.
Even Mrs. Wei and Queen Mother Han were worried and didn't want Han Ding to go.
"Jiaojiao, what do you think?"
"Husband, if you want to go, then go! I believe in you!"
Gu Qingcheng still maintained his persona of a little woman, looking at Han Ding as if he were looking up to a god.
Han Ding: ...As expected, my little fool understands me best.
Jiaojiao, just wait, I will definitely win you some honor and come back!
Gu Qingcheng: ...it's time to end.
PS: As expected, the last chapter was not finished. This chapter has explained everything that needs to be explained, hehe.
PPS: My condition is much better today. I feel that as long as I survive the high fever day, it will be easier to survive the rest. Moreover, being sick is not without its benefits. At least for the past two days, I don’t have to listen to a certain little ancestor calling “Mom” eight hundred times a day.
