Do you know: I have a different surname: Wang, uncle Minglan.

Chapter 245 Wei Jingshu, the eldest daughter of the Wei family, and Wei Qiji, the eldest son

Bao Xiaosu spent his last effort writing a letter called "The Emperor's Letter to the Clique".

The whole article has a total of 3,700 words.

It was written by his son. After the work was completed, Bao Xiaosu fell into a coma.

The imperial doctor checked his pulse and said that Bao Xiaosu had lost all vitality in the past few days.

At this moment, inside the Xuanzheng Hall.

Manager Zhu presented the "Letter from the Emperor to the Clique" with both hands to Zhao Zhen, and told him that Bao Xiaosu was about to die soon.

Zhao Zhen was filled with emotion and said: "Bao Qing is really a loyal minister of Sheji."

He has not made this statement public for the time being.

On July 3, Bao Xiaosu passed away.

But the Great Zhou Dynasty is not the Great Song Dynasty, it is more like the combination of the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. I don’t know if something like the ‘Jingkang Shame’ will happen in my lifetime.

Don't be afraid of something happening, just be afraid that nothing will happen.

Yang Huairen continued to stay in the capital and served as deputy commander of the Infantry Department.

"Master Hou, I just said it's okay." Zhong E bowed.

Wei Yuan said: "I have something that I hope Brother Zhong can help me with."

If you want to destroy people, you must first make them flourish.

"That's it?" Zhong E smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Lord Marquis, I'll take care of it."

Before calming down the general's anger, Zhao Zhen adopted Wei Yuan's advice and appointed Ningyuan Marquis Gu Tingye as the training envoy of the Weizhou regiment.

Wei Yuan said bluntly: "Weizhou regiment training envoy Gu Tingye is still inexperienced and is just starting out. I'm worried that he won't be able to stabilize the Yanbian generals. I hope Brother Zhong can give me more support."

If you want a long-lasting relationship, you need to do things for each other.

"I really don't understand, Wei Qing's reason for this?"

When he came to this hall, Zhao Zhen asked, "Is Zhong'e gone?"

After the issue of rewards for the heroes of the Yanbian War was resolved, the party struggle was not over.

Zhong E bowed and said: "Master Wei Hou spoke uprightly for the general, and the general will be very grateful."

Nowadays, the civil servants are busy worshiping the mountain, and want to bet on who will win between the two.

In the battle against Xia, Gu Tingye's performance was outstanding, but he was not good enough to serve as a team coach. This was all due to Zhong and Yang's losses and Wei Yuan's encouragement.

There is essentially no difference between worshiping Zhang Fu and worshiping Weiyuan.

He was referring to Wei Yuan's desire to make him a knight.

It used to be a civil-military dispute, but now it has nothing to do with the military commanders, but the grievances between the Qingliu and the noble families, the reformers and the conservatives are still in full swing.

"I heard something by chance. Is that girl Guifen going to give birth soon?"

The implication is that I have agreed that you have to worship the mountain. From now on, everyone will be prosperous and you will suffer.

Because the generals were too united, there was only one mountain they could worship, and that was Master Zhang Fu.

"People say that you, Lord Wei, favor girls over boys. He even thought of a girl's name, but not a boy."

This sentence expresses one's position.

On July 6, Wei Yuan sent Zhong'e away from Beijing.
"During this period, there will be no peace in the capital. If you go to guard Yanbian, you will have nothing to do."

Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "Qing Wei is worrying too much."

As for the description of the various interests and dangers of the clique's struggle in the letter, Zhao Zhen did not say it.

"Moreover, many characters are similar or even overlap with many celebrities in the Song Dynasty."

Zhong E nodded and said, "If there is any need for you, Lord Marquis, in the future, just give me your orders."

On the second day after Bao Xiaosu's death, there was a court meeting. Zhao Zhen promoted Zhong E to "Deputy Envoy of Shaanxi Economic Strategy, Appeasement and Recruitment" on the grounds of Bao Xiaosu's legacy.

Gu Tingye's appointment as the training envoy of the Weizhou regiment was an important part of Wei Yuan's layout in Yanbian and could not be missed.

After Zhong'e left, Zhao Zhen called Wei Yuan to go to the Xuanzheng Hall.

If Da Zhou was really Da Song, he wouldn't have so many worries. After all, at this time, Da Song could at least maintain peace for a long time.

Wei Yuan bowed and said: "I just left, I told him some things about Xixia. I am worried that Xixia may still be restless. Now the internal worries in Xixia are so serious that the people of Xixia have been overwhelmed."

If nothing happens, what's the point of worshiping at the top of Zhong'e mountain?

Wei Yuan smiled and said: "To be honest with the officials, I really like girls. If I give birth to a boy and act naughty, I will feel bored just thinking about it."

"This life is quite similar to the Song Dynasty. Compared with Bao Zheng, Bao Xiaosu died only one year apart."

Zhao Zhen just wanted to let them make trouble. As long as it was still within control, and as long as it didn't make the country become unruly, he would let them go.

"Except for the timeline being a little messed up, I really don't know where to go in the future."

Wei Yuan was very sad when he heard the news.
"In the history of previous lives, there was Bao Qingtian, who passed away in the seventh year of Jiayou."

Hearing this, Wei Yuan blushed and said, "There will be opportunities in the future."

Zhao Zhen coughed twice and said with a smile: "Giving a girl cannot pass on the family business. If your Wei family has no children, who will inherit the title of Uncle Zhongyong in the future?"

Wei Yuan pretended to be stunned, frowning and said: "I really haven't thought about this. I just thought that in my lifetime, I could conquer Yanyun in the northern expedition and do my best to serve the country."

"As for who will seize the title, I think I am still young and I really haven't thought about it carefully."

Zhao Zhen laughed and said: "How can that be done? There should be someone to inherit your martial arts skills."

"Besides, you can't control whether it's a boy or a girl, so you can't favor one over the other."

Wei Yuan said respectfully: "I accept my instruction."

Zhao Zhen said again: "You name the daughter you will give birth to Wei Jingshu. I think this is a good name. Jing's daughter is very good."

"But have you ever thought about the name of a man?"

Wei Yuan pretended to look embarrassed, shook his head and said, "I really haven't thought about it."

Zhao Zhen laughed twice, "Since you haven't thought about it, how about I give it a man's name?"

"If the girl Guifen gives birth to a girl, use the name you want. If it is a boy, or if your Wei family has a son in the future, use the name I gave you."

Hearing this, Wei Yuan looked excited and said, "If the official family can bestow a name on my son, it will really be my blessing!"

Zhao Zhen nodded, thought for a moment, and wrote the word "Qi Ji" on a piece of white paper.
"Quit Ji, Wei Qi Ji, I hope that your son of the Wei family can be my king, the king of future generations, and the great Zhou Dynasty, and get rid of the troubles in your heart!"

Zhao Zhen was terminally ill, so he chose such a name because he may have put his personal happiness in it.
"I hope that in the future, when people talk about the Wei family, they will say that in ancient times there was Huo Qubing, and today there is Wei Qiji!"

That's what he said.

Wei Yuan bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wait until he leaves Xuanzheng Hall. Zhao Zhen murmured to himself, "It's good to favor girls over boys. It's good to prioritize girls over boys."

"Whether Wei Qing wants to express something to me, or whether he really is like this, it will be a good thing for him, me, and Xi'er in the future."

Does Wei Yuan really favor girls over boys?
He wants to make the Wei family a big family, and a rich and powerful family.

How can we continue to be popular without men?
He deliberately behaved too favoring women over men, just to make some people less wary of him.

After all, favoring daughters over sons is destined to make it difficult for the family to prosper.
-
Jiayou's sixth year, late July.

Zhang Guifen's delivery date is approaching.

Wei Yuan specifically asked Zhao Zhen for half a month's leave, hoping that he could be with Zhang Guifen on the day she gave birth.

Until around early August.

someday.

Wei Yuan, Wei Shuyi and others were chatting with Zhang Guifen.

Minglan joked from time to time: "My uncle has been taking a rest for half a month. Are the officials really willing?"

Wei Yuan smiled and said: "Since your aunt became pregnant, I haven't been able to accompany your aunt properly. There has been nothing in the court recently, and I am happy to be at ease."

Brother Chang on the side frowned and said: "Is there nothing going on in the court? My nephew heard from his classmates in the Imperial College that the party struggle is becoming more and more serious now."

Wei Yuan suddenly hit him on the head and said seriously: "You are still young, don't ask about these things!"

Brother Chang rarely saw his uncle be so solemn, so he nodded quickly.

Wei Shu said, "What does Brother Chang know at such a young age? You just know how to bully Brother Chang. Brother Chang, come and sit with your aunt."

Wei Yuan said angrily: "I'm not young anymore. In a few years, I will take part in the imperial examination. From now on, Brother Chang will have to learn to cultivate his hope and assess the situation. Otherwise, he will have to wait until he becomes a Jinshi to learn these things." late."

While everyone was talking and laughing, Minglan, who had been watching Zhang Guifen, suddenly saw water dripping.

"ah!"

"Auntie, are you about to give birth?"

After hearing this, Zhang Guifen realized it later and felt a burst of moisture in her lower body.

Wei Shuyi was very experienced in giving birth and said: "Hurry up and call the midwife, Ruyi, and help Guifen to the house with me. Baozhu, you go and boil the water."

In an instant, everyone was in chaos.

Only Wei Yuan froze on the spot.

He was a little confused.

Giving birth? Going to be a father?

This sudden joy made him a little overwhelmed.

Zhang Guifen, supported by her two sisters, walked into the house and said to Wei Yuan:

"Officer, you are guarding the door. I'm afraid."

"Zhen'er, go to the Duke's Mansion and tell my parents."

Hearing this, Wei Yuan realized it later, stood up quickly, and walked towards Wei Shuyi and the others.

After helping Zhang Guifen into the house, Wei Yuan subconsciously wanted to follow him, but Minglan directly pushed him outside.
"Uncle! My aunt is giving birth and you are in the house. There is evil spirit. This is not good!"

Wei Yuan nodded dullly and stood guard outside the house.

After a while, with the arrival of several midwives, Wei Yuan's uneasy mind gradually stabilized.

I don't know how long it took, but about an hour or two, Zhang Guifen's screams began to be heard.

Wei Yuan's eyes were dull and he stood dullly outside the house, not knowing what to do.

At this time, Zhang Fu and his wife also came over and asked quickly:

"How is Guifen?"

Wei Yuan shook his head, anxious but unable to do anything.

Zhang Fu said: "Madam, you go in and accompany Fen'er."

Mrs. Zhang nodded and walked into the room.

I don’t know how much time passed, but it was approaching evening.

When Wei Yuan saw a midwife walking out of the house carrying a basin of blood, he immediately shuddered and quickly stepped forward and asked:
"Is my wife okay?"

The midwife poured the blood and water aside and said, "Master Hou, please relax, Mrs. Hou has a good foundation and is fine."

Hearing the word "all right", Wei Yuan felt relieved a little.

Zhang Fu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yuan'er, don't worry. Guifen has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and she has always been in good health."

Wei Yuan was still a little uneasy.

From time to time, Zhang Guifen's screams could be heard in his ears, making Wei Yuan feel confused.

Many people, including Brother Chang, were a little surprised to see Wei Yuan like this.

Who is Wei Yuan? The pillar of the country, the best military commander!
He even feels anxious about his wife giving birth.

It can be seen that Mr. Hou is really affectionate towards Mrs. Hou.

at this time.

A baby cried.

"Born! Born!"

The midwife walked out of the house and said happily: "Congratulations, Lord Marquis, on the birth!"

Wei Yuan was overjoyed, "Boy or girl? How is my wife?"

The midwife said: "Congratulations to Mr. Hou on your daughter's fortune. Mrs. Hou is fine."

After hearing this, Wei Yuan was about to walk into the house, but was stopped by the midwife.
"Master Hou, don't worry, Mrs. Hou is having twins this time, and one of her sons is yet to be born!"

twin?
Wei Yuan was stunned.

About two quarters of an hour passed.

Wei Yuan heard a burst of crying again.

The midwife once again announced her happiness,
"Congratulations to Mr. Hou, Mrs. Hou is blessed with a double blessing, 'good' falls from the sky!"

it is good?
Wei Yuan's eyebrows were filled with joy, "Is my wife's second child a boy?"

In this way, Wei Jingshu and Wei Qiji are both there.
