Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

On New Year's Eve, even if it was a festival of family reunion, Grand Tutor Zhou Minqing would not hesitate to invite the eldest son of the emperor to study in the pavilion, and he was about to fight Emperor Jingfeng to the end.When the memorial was sent back, just when he thought that Emperor Jingfeng was going to be perfunctory as usual, he saw a striking big character written on it: "Yun".

Zhou Minqing's nerves trembled, fearing that he had read it wrong, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and found that it was indeed the word "Yun".He still couldn't believe it, and asked several ministers who also went to study for the eldest son of the emperor, and they all got the same answer: Emperor Jingfeng agreed.

The ministers headed by Zhou Minqing had been playing games with Emperor Jingfeng for several months, and now they haven't done anything, yet Emperor Jingfeng agreed.This surprise came so suddenly that Zhou Minqing, a 60-year-old man in his sixties, was so excited that he burst into tears. If it weren't for the New Year's holiday, he would have gone to the palace to find Emperor Jingfeng for verification on the spot.

Fortunately, he didn't wait too long. At the Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting the next day, Emperor Jingfeng formally issued an edict in front of civil and military officials: Li Jinze, the eldest son of the emperor, was made the crown prince, who was in the East Palace. Study and study.

The courtiers made too much effort for the emperor's eldest son to study, but they were always blocked by Emperor Jingfeng. Once their wish was fulfilled, everyone rejoiced and wished they could dance with their hands in the hall.For a time, no matter whether they were political opponents or opponents, they all got along with each other like relatives and friends, and the court and China showed an unprecedented harmony.

While everyone was happy, they couldn't help wondering—Emperor Jingfeng's attitude had always been ambiguous before. Whether it was the collective advice of the officials or Jia Daoheng's risky advice, he never made up his mind to let the eldest son of the emperor study. Why did he suddenly change his mind for no reason? , Could it be that he has become enlightened?

The "enlightened man" Gu Yunji vaguely understood the reason behind this, but he just smiled slightly, letting everyone guess.

The weather is getting warmer, the ice and snow are melting, and it is February in a blink of an eye.On a warm and sunny spring day, Gu Mingxuan's wife, the county magistrate Yonghe, gave birth to a daughter for him. The magistrate of Yanping County invited all the new and noble lords in Beijing to host a full moon banquet for his granddaughter.

The little doll was born fair and clean, with eyebrows and eyes very similar to Gu Mingxuan, so lovable.At such a young age, Gu Yunji actually had the liking of middle-aged people, and crowded beside his cousin and niece with many elders, he couldn't look away.

Cheng Yan laughed and teased him: "In a few months, you will be a father yourself, why do you become more and more rare about other people's children?"

Gu Yunji looked back reluctantly, and said: "It's because I'm going to be a father soon, so it's easier to empathize with cousin Mingxuan. When I see this kind of newborn child, I can't help thinking that my own child will be What kind, come and go, I just want to see more."

Xu Shuhua is now seven months pregnant, and Gu Yunji sees his wife's belly getting bigger day by day. He is full of anticipation and anxiety about the coming new life. He is dreaming of a little baby carved in powder and jade called his father. After Xu Shuhua found out, he teased him for a long time.

Cheng Yan said with a smile: "You are too nervous, but it's the same as being a parent for the first time, just relax, and when you have the second or third time, you will gradually get used to it."

"Hearing what you mean, why does it feel like you have more experience than me?" Gu Yunji looked at him with narrowed eyes, "I'm ashamed to say that I'm going to be a father, and you're still a naked man. Not in a hurry?"

Cheng Yan Youzai Youzai: "What are you in a hurry for? Are you in a hurry to get married or have a baby? You're urging me so much. If I naively bring a baby back and call you uncle, do you think you can laugh?"

Cheng Yan has always been silent and reticent, but he is surprisingly eloquent on this topic. Gu Yunji choked on him, and laughed dryly: "It's not that you can do it in one step, you have to proceed step by step. Before you have a child, you still have to get married, get married Before, there were still relatives and relatives, so you can take your time."

"You have been alone for a long time, and now that my family is complete, don't you feel a little bit of envy in your heart, don't you want to be like me?" Gu Yunji tried to persuade me with reason and emotion , "Why don't you wait for my child to be born and recognize you as a godfather, so that you can experience the addiction of being a father earlier?"

Cheng Yan waved his hands again and again: "Forget it, Su Qi has written several letters back, saying that he wants to be your child's godfather, and I will not take his job. Besides, if I still have some expectations for marriage , I really don't have any ideas about children. I can't even take care of the children's noise, and it's really troublesome to take care of him. "

After Cheng Yan's mother and eldest brother passed away, the family property was divided up by uncles and relatives. When he went to fight for the property, the other party's hypocrisy still makes him sick in retrospect.Since then, he has been very indifferent to family affection, and it is very natural for him to cater to friends in the officialdom, but he is very alienated from his relatives in his hometown, and he does not want to see any of them.

Gu Yunji knew this about Cheng Yan, but he didn't expect that he didn't even want children now, so he frowned slightly and said, "You don't want children, but your future wife may not want children, do you think you can convince her? "

"I'm not sure, so I just found a woman who doesn't want to have children to be my wife from the very beginning." Cheng Yan's tone was casual, he didn't know if it was the truth or just said it casually, "The world is so big, what if we can really find it? "

In this era where heir inheritance is extremely important, Cheng Yan's thinking can no longer be called a maverick, it is simply shocking and deviant from common sense.I'm afraid some people will think that it's not that he doesn't want children, but that he has physical problems and can't give birth, so he "can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour".

Regardless of whether Cheng Yan really doesn't want a child, if he can say this, it means that he already has a similar psychological tendency, which is a bad sign.Gu Yunji almost wondered if he had been lonely for a long time, and there was something wrong with his mind, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only keep silent worriedly.

Seeing Gu Yunji's sad face, Cheng Yan teased: "What are you worried about? At least I'm still willing to marry a wife. When I really die alone without a wife and children, it's never too late for you to worry."

Gu Yunji was angry and laughed at the same time, and punched him: "Then I have to thank you? At least I left some leeway, so I didn't worry to the end?"

Cheng Yan climbed along the pole, and laughed loudly: "You have to thank me, if I didn't give you some worries, wouldn't your current life with smooth sailing and bright future be smooth sailing?"

The two were chatting and laughing, but someone didn't know what was going on, and hurried over to make trouble: "Hey, Mr. Cheng wants to marry a wife? I have a younger sister who is only twenty-eight years old. Why don't Mr. Cheng think about it?"

Hearing this voice, Cheng Yan's smile narrowed, and a trace of boredom flashed in his eyes—here it came again.
