Kou Ji shouted a lot in his heart, but said lightly.
"How can the official family be sure that the son of the inner son must be a girl, and the son of Zhang Jieyu must be a dragon?"
Zhao Zhen glanced at Zhang Jieyu and said faintly: "I believe that Zhang Jieyu must have a dragon in his belly."
Kou Ji asked, "What if?"
Zhao Zhen said boldly: "Nothing in case."
Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment, and he curled his lips slightly, "It is rare for officials to see officials with such self-confidence."
Zhao Zhen glanced at Kou Ji and asked, "Should I not believe in myself?"
Kou Ji was stunned again, Zhao Zhen now not only has grown up and matured, but also has a little more imperial authority.
just…
I, Kou Ji, is the kind of person who is led by your nose
Kou Ji smiled indifferently: "Why do officials insist on marrying officials?"
Zhao Zhen said frankly: "I have brothers and sisters with you, I don't mind if we kiss each other again, to draw closer the relationship between you and the monarch and ministers."
Kou Ji groaned: "Right now, my wife has just shown her arms, and Zhang Jieyu has not shown her arms yet. It's too early to talk about marriage now."
Zhao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and frowned slightly, "You don't want to be your relatives with me. Is this your excuse?"
Kou Jigan laughed and said: "The minister is afraid that both Zhang Jieyu and his wife will give birth to a boy. When the time comes, things like children's relatives will become a joke."
Zhao Zhen pondered: "If there is a boy and a girl, then they will become a couple, and if there are two baby boys, then they will become brothers."
The smile on Kou Ji's face was a bit stiff.
Zhao Zhen continued: "I can also accept him as a righteous son, give him the surname Zhao, make him a county official, and entrust him as a student, and accompany my emperor to study.
The smile on Kou Ji's face was even more rigid.
The meaning in Zhao Zhen's words is obvious.
If Xiang Yan gave birth to a girl, it would be his daughter-in-law, and she would be the princess when she landed.
If there is a son left, he will be his son's companion.
The reason why Zhao Zhen can give Kou Ji's son so generously, Kou Ji can also guess.
Zhao Zhen grew up alone in the palace, but he had few playmates and one friend who could talk to him. He lived very lonely in his childhood.
He has experienced that kind of loneliness, knowing how terrifying and painful that kind of loneliness is.
So he didn't want to let his emperor experience the fear and pain he once experienced again.
If this matter falls on other people, that person will definitely kneel on the ground immediately, shouting thanks to the Lord for your grace.
But it fell on Kou Ji, but Kou Ji looked reluctant.
Why does my son have your last name
What a great surname Zhao
Why should my son be your son's attendant
Just because your son's surname is Zhao
Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji have their own thoughts.
Empress Cao, Zhang Jieyu, and Xiang Yan were shocked.
The three women knew that Kou Ji was very pampered in front of Zhao Zhen, but they did not expect to be pampered.
The child in Xiang Yan's belly has not yet been born.
The noble status has fallen to him (her).
Out of the mother's womb, immediately there is an existence below one person and above ten thousand people.
Whether it is the identity of Zhao Zhen's daughter-in-law or the identity of Zhao Zhen's godson, it is indescribable.
"The minister thought it was too early to talk about this."
Kou Ji smiled stiffly and rejected Zhao Zhen's proposal.
Empress Cao, Zhang Jieyu, and Xiang Yan were even more shocked.
If someone knocks their heads and can't ask for an identity, you just refuse it
The expression on Zhao Zhen's face was also stiff, and his face was ugly and said: "Kou Ji... Are you so unwilling to be closer to me?"
When Kou Ji rejected Zhao Zhen, he had already figured out his excuses. He handed over and said: "It's not a minister who doesn't want to be close to officials. It's just that I have rules in the court and foreign relatives are not allowed to do politics.
If an official wants to become a relative with a minister, he must first give up the position of the official, Cao Shangshu, and expel the minister from the court. "
Zhao Zhen was stunned, "I have forgotten that there is such a rule. I still have many political affairs and need to rely on you, but I am not willing to expel you from the court. Please allow me some time and wait until I think of it safely. You and I will discuss this matter again."
Hearing this, Kou Ji said with a straightforward expression: "Officials, foreign relatives are not allowed to do politics. It is an ancestral system and cannot be overstepped without authorization."
Zhao Zhen rounded a deep glance at Kou Ji.
Kou Ji stared at Zhao Zhen without blinking.
Zhao Zhen took a deep breath and said quietly: "I'm tired and want to rest for a while."
Kou Ji immediately got up, helped Xiang Yan, and salute Zhao Zhen together.
"The minister retire first."
Zhao Zhen nodded helplessly, and said, "When the Wenchang Academy opens, you can come and invite me."
Kou Ji nodded and helped Xiang Yan to withdraw from the main hall.
One exits the main hall.
Xiang Yan couldn't help asking: "Msang Gong, the official said that he wants to give our son the surname of the county government and give our son Zhao the surname. You didn't agree?"
Kou Ji glanced at Xiang Yan, "My child, only the last name Kou."
This Kou Ji said so loudly that it should not be rejected.
Xiang Yan looked suspicious.
Being given the emperor's surname is a great honor.
Xiang Yan didn't know why Kou Ji rejected things that others had never asked for for eight lifetimes, so unquestionable.
Kou Ji saw that Xiang Yan's eyes were full of doubts, and he curled his lips and said, "If the child in your stomach is really a baby boy, then he is the eldest son and grandson of the fourth generation of my Kou Mansion. If it is Zhao, do you believe that your grandfather will break through? Go into the palace and demolish the Hanging Arch Hall?"
Xiang Yan looked stunned.
Thinking about it carefully, I think Kou Ji's statement is reasonable.
Both Kou Zhun's son Kou Li and Kou Zhun's grandson Kou Ji, both adopted them.
Was not born in Kou Mansion.
The heel is always a little shallow.
Even though Kou Zhun treats Kou Ji as his grandson, no one knows whether there is a gap in his heart.
But if Xiang Yan gave birth to a baby boy in the Kou Mansion, it would be a direct line of the upright Kou Zhun line.
No one can pick out the great-grandson Kou Zhun who is a little problematic.
Kou Zhun finally had a blood heritage, if he was named Zhao surname.
It's strange that Kou won't go crazy.
What about the Emperor Zhao's surname
There were many emperors and nobles surnamed Zhao in the Song Dynasty, but there was only one sage surnamed Kou.
The descendants of dignified sages, can't compare to the surname of a wild road
Xiang Yan made up a lot of brains in an instant.
But don't know.
Koji's remark was just a rhetoric.
In the final analysis, he is unwilling to give his child the surname Zhao.
He doesn't think that the surname Zhao must be more noble than the surname Kou.
His children do not need to change their surnames to seek wealth.
After Xiang Yan's brain supplementation, she dispelled the thought of letting the child in her belly take advantage of the royal family. However, doubts arose in her heart. Where's the son
What if it's a dragon girl? "
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said: "In the past, the Wei king was deprived of his identity because of his unruly plot, and was distributed to Fangling. After the emperor came to the throne, he thought of the old family affection and rewarded them one or two, but they were finally separated from the center of power. For too long, it has been forgotten by people, and it is difficult to enter the center of power again.
Few high-ranking officials and ministers in the court hall regard them as relatives of the emperor.
The Taizu line was cleared once for some reason when Taizong was in the reign.
During the reign of the first emperor, an erysipelas case broke out again. Therefore, the first emperor took the titles of many people from the Taizu line and demoted them to common people.
As a result, the Taizu line was separated from the center of power.
The eight kings rebelled, the Chu king burned the palace, the dragon sons and grandsons of the eight kings' mansion, and Chu's mansion are all relegated to common people.
The descendants of other princes in Taizong's line are relatively thin.
The Zhao family members have reached an unprecedented period of frailty.
The official family naturally continued to give birth to male babies, opening up branches and leaves for the Zhao family.
More importantly, during the reign of the first emperor, only one prince from the official family lived in the palace.
The officials were somewhat afraid of repeating the mistakes of the first emperor, so they urgently needed to give birth to a prince.
Only by giving birth to more princes, the panic in the officials' hearts will be eliminated.
This is why the officials firmly believe that the child in Zhang Jieyu's belly must be the prince. "
After listening to Kou Ji's explanation, Xiang Yan suddenly realized.
"That strange official never talked about the dragon girl..."
Kou Ji smiled faintly.
"Let's go back to the room and rest."
"It's fair to hear..."
Kou Ji helped Xiang Yan go back to the room to rest.
In the main hall of Kou's House.
Zhao Zhen, who threatened to say that he was exhausted, did not go to rest, but asked Empress Cao with a melancholy expression.
"Queen, I proposed to Kou Ji to get married, but Kou Ji shirks in every possible way. Why do you think this is?"
Empress Cao helped Zhao Zhen pour a cup of tea, and laughed in a low voice: "Didn't Kou Aiqing say that if the official is married to him, then he will not be able to appear in the court in the future, and he will no longer be able to help the official."
Zhao Zhen picked up the teacup, put it down, and shook his head: "I always feel that his remarks are not from the true heart. I feel that he is unwilling to marry me with my sons and daughters."
Empress Cao felt the same, but she didn't say it, instead she helped Kou Ji speak.
"The concubine thinks that Kou Aiqing seldom rejects the officialdom, and occasionally rejects the officialdom once or twice. The official is not happy in your heart, so you look at him not pleasing to your eyes and think about him badly."
Zhao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then he pondered for a moment, and said, "Maybe so..."
Empress Cao smiled lightly.
After Zhao Zhen was silent for a while, he said again: "Others can't wait to send their daughters into the palace and become the wives and concubines of our emperor, but Kou Ji is unwilling, which is really weird."
Empress Cao was taken aback for a moment, but did not speak for Kou Ji again.
Talk to Zhao Zhen and say that once is called admonition.
If you frequently speak nice things to someone, you have ulterior motives.
Zhao Zhen has gradually matured now, and has gradually begun to master the emperor's heart.
As Zhao Zhen's pillow, Empress Cao has already begun to understand some of Zhao Zhen's thoughts.
So, she knows when to speak for others and when to keep silent.
Empress Cao said nothing.
Zhang Jieyu spoke up.
"The official family need not be upset, our emperor has not yet been born. After the emperor is born, it will not be too late for the official to make an appointment for the emperor. The official can take a closer look before the emperor is born, for the emperor. Find a good wife."
When Zhao Zhen heard Zhang Jieyu's words, he squeezed his chin and pondered.
"idiot!"
Empress Cao cursed inwardly.
Zhang Jieyu's words were a disguised form for the child in her stomach and refused to marry Kou Mansion.
So Empress Cao thought Zhang Jieyu was an idiot.
Zhang Jieyu didn't know how deep the friendship between Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji was.
With only a word from Kou Ji, Zhao Zhen used methods to play the matter of the Guo Yu Nu.
But Zhang Jieyu didn't know.
Zhao Zhen could kill a concubine of his own because of Kou Ji's words.
But Zhao Zhen would never play Kou Ji because of a word from his concubine.
Although Zhao Zhen loves Zhang Jieyu, he has not yet made trouble for Zhang Jieyu.
Nor would it embarrass Zhao Zhen for Zhang Jieyu.
When Zhang Jieyu and Kou Ji have a conflict, Zhao Zhen will definitely favor Kou Ji.
There is no other reason.
Zhao Zhen secretly called Kou Ji a "fourth brother".
That's not just called it casually.
Instead, he really regarded Kou Ji as a elder brother in his heart.
After Zhao Heng, Liu E and many of Zhao Zhen's closest relatives passed away, a large part of the affection in Zhao Zhen's heart rested on Kou Ji.
The other part is pinned on Taifei Yang.
Although Zhao Zhen's mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, is still alive, she is also accompanied by Zhao Zhen.
But Zhao Zhen did not grow up in the hands of Li Taifei, and did not have much affection for Li Taifei.
When Zhao Zhen treated Princess Li, he was more like a junior, treating an elder respectfully.
Rather than treating his biological mother like a son.
It is precisely because Zhao Zhen puts some affection on Kou Ji.
Therefore, Kou Ji's position in the court in the future is destined to be as stable as Mount Tai.
Queen Cao has personally experienced how powerful Kou Ji's methods are.
Because she can sit as the queen, it all depends on Kou Ji's plan.
Kou Ji is destined to enter the inner court and is destined to become a high-ranking minister.
Like these important ministers, if they can become the father-in-law of their son, Empress Cao can wake up from a dream at night.
Because if one's own son has a high-ranking and important official as his father-in-law, then his son's hope of being on the throne in the future is much higher than that of others.
Coupled with Kou Ji's grandfather Kou Zhun, Kou Ji's grandfather Xiang Minzhong.
And the door behind them is dead.
And the Cao family, the Wuxun attached to the Cao family.
Almost half of the courts will support their son.
It can be said that his son is on the throne almost surely.
Such in-laws, unwilling to make knots, and insist on throwing them away
Do you think you are a trivial in-law
No, what you throw is a throne.
Isn’t that stupid
That is to say, Empress Cao was not pregnant. If Empress Cao was pregnant and could give birth to the dragon child smoothly, she would surely sullen her face and use all the power she could in her hands to tie Kou Ji to her son's chariot.
Let Kou Ji run for the throne of his son.
Empress Cao weighed the pros and cons in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "Sister Zhang is right..."
Zhang Jieyu was clever and took the initiative to reject the matter.
Empress Cao didn't need to remind her, let alone help her become smart.
Zhang Jieyu saw Empress Cao speaking for herself, with a bright smile on her face.
