Ms. Cui hesitated to speak, but finally said: "What your Highness means is that you want to adopt a male heir from Mr. Sincerely…”
Yun Fenghuang was a little surprised and said: "The letter from home didn't mention anything. When did this happen? Was it His Highness's own intention, or did someone say something to His Highness?"
"Should it be His Highness's own intention?" Ms. Cui thought for a while and said, "Maybe it is because of the concubine's persuasion? I heard from the waiters around Your Highness that when His Highness saw the Xie family's descendants prospering, he would often feel sad when no one was around. It was sad. I just didn’t say anything at the time. After returning last year, His Highness went to the palace to visit the concubine. After returning, he tactfully mentioned this to the concubine. But... the consort did not agree. "
"I can understand His Highness's mood." Yun Fenghuang pondered for a while. Princess Sui'an was unable to have children. In this era where unfilial piety is the most serious problem, it is an unavoidable problem.
Not only Sui'an himself was worried about it, but Yun Fenghuang also felt it was a pity.
Her earlier idea for Xie Wuzheng was also adopted. However, Xie Wuzheng chose to be a love saint and put the words out first, so that no matter what Yun Fenghuang or the other Xie family members had, it was not good. Let’s talk about Xie Wuzheng.
At this moment, Sui'an herself thought about the step-heir. In Yun Fenghuang's mind, she agreed because of the brother-sister relationship; but because she was worried about Xie Wuzheng's desire for stability after having feelings for the heir, she was a little entangled. .
At this moment, he said slowly, "However, the matter is serious. Back then, the prince-in-law made an oath in front of His Majesty, but it was not easy to do so. Furthermore, even if you want to adopt an heir, you should first choose from the eldest son. . Although the Fourth Fang and the Consort are also close relatives, they are separated by one level."
Ms. Cui said hurriedly: "When the tenth brother knew that His Highness liked Zhong'er, he actually declined it. He even went to explain it to the eldest uncle and aunt. But what the consort meant was that since he had made a promise to His Majesty back then, he would be considered the eldest nephew's direct nephew. He doesn’t even want a son. That’s why Your Highness feels sorry for the Consort, and has been thinking of ways to persuade the Consort recently.”
"The prince-in-law is that kind of person." Yun Fenghuang prevaricates casually, "This matter has been settled in front of your majesty. Not to mention that the prince-in-law has a deep love for your highness and is unwilling to change it easily. Even if the prince-in-law is betrayed by your highness, If you say yes, you must have His Majesty's approval. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?"
She hoped that Mr. Cui would be smarter and grasp the key point: not wanting to change easily does not mean that it cannot be changed; it must be approved by His Majesty. This matter was witnessed by the Emperor. The Emperor would not let go, so he made 11,000 wishes. Yu Xie Wuzheng's reputation and future are also not good.
"Yes!" Mrs. Cui responded cautiously, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Mother, in fact, I think that the prince-in-law also wants to have children. Two days ago, my sister-in-law took her nephew to visit me, and it happened to be The prince-in-law came over to talk to her husband. My wife's nephew was young, only three or two years old. He accidentally bumped into the prince-son-in-law while playing under the corridor. The prince-in-law hugged him for a while, and then reluctantly handed him over to his wet nurse. My wife's sisters-in-law all Said, if His Highness and the Consort have an heir, the Consort must be a loving father."
Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, how many men these days don't expect a legitimate son
Not to mention that if Sui'an couldn't have given birth, he would be an heir with royal blood!
"Sister-in-law is very attentive." She nodded slightly and did not continue the topic. Instead, she asked about the situation of the Cui family, "Your nephew is about the same age as I am fifteen... Do you have any plans at home? ?”
Cui was pleasantly surprised when she heard this. She heard that the imperial concubine was looking for someone to be a reading companion for the fifteenth prince in advance. She hurriedly answered, but did not say anything more about it.
After she left, Yun Fenghuang thought about it for a while, and the next day he found an excuse to express his gratitude to Wu Zheng for entering the palace. Speaking of this matter: "Now that there are no outsiders here, I will say it bluntly: If Brother Twenty-One really wants to Looking forward to having an heir, as long as Your Highness is willing to seek His Majesty’s request for this, Your Majesty will surely not have the heart to sit back and watch His Majesty’s knees be empty.”
In fact, Chunjia had no idea from the beginning that because Sui'an could not have a child, he wanted his consort to follow him and cut off his children.
Xie Wuzheng was so angry that he deliberately set up a love affair to become famous.
From the emperor's point of view, the most important thing is to ensure that the three Xiaozongs are treated with courtesy.
This guarantee means that in the eyes of everyone in the world, they are treated with courtesy.
As for whether the three Jinzhiyuye actually lived a good life and whether it was appropriate in Chunjia's opinion, that was secondary.
Therefore, let alone Sui'an's human request of having an heir, if she herself lost her mind and had to give the concubine to the concubine to continue the heir, Chunjia would definitely comply after persuading her to no avail.
But Xie Wuzheng's oath was given to the emperor, so the emperor was relieved, and he and the eldest princess could continue their relationship through adoption and other methods like ordinary childless couples.
"Is this what Sister-in-law 18 said?" Xie Wuzheng heard the words, frowned slightly, and said, "That day I had something to discuss with Brother 18, and I met Mr. Cui in the mansion. I saw that he was cute and naughty. So after hugging me for a while, I turned around and saw that the eighteenth sister-in-law and sister-in-law had different expressions on their faces. I guessed that they were sympathetic to me. However, please don’t misunderstand me. I am still young, and so is Your Highness. Given time, there may not be no hope. I would like to say something offensive to the empress. When the empress first entered the palace, she favored and occupied the special room for several years. Wasn't it considered that the offspring had little fate? But now there is not His Highness the King of Jin? I think the words of the imperial doctor may not be accurate. "
Yun Fenghuang pondered: "But I heard that His Highness seems to be quite concerned about it? Or, why don't Brother Twenty-one adopt a daughter from the eldest family first to appease him?"
Since Xie Wuzheng had hope for the eventuality, it was only natural for him to become a stepson.
After all, the adopted heir now has the same status as the parent-child in terms of etiquette and law. It is true that Xie Wuzheng and his wife are still young. If they make their nephew their heir at this time, and wait a few years to give birth to their own son, this... the biological flesh and blood that was so easy to come to has lost the identity of the eldest son, what will happen to the parents? Can you bear it
When the time comes, we can't just kill the heir.
But it was embarrassing.
But my daughter is no problem.
Moreover, Yun Fenghuang said, "I have also heard that there is a saying among the people that after a long time after marriage, couples will adopt one or two children to attract their own children. It is said that many people use this method to have children and grandchildren. The hall is full. There is not a single person left and right in the eldest princess’ palace. If His Highness really mind, Brother Twenty-one might as well consider which niece in the eldest room is innocent and cute and can suit His Highness’s eyes.”
He lowered his voice and said, "Otherwise, from what Sister Eighteenth said, His Highness is often depressed right now. If he continues like this and cannot be relieved, what should he do if he falls ill in the future?"
Your current status as a consort lies entirely in Sui'an, and Sui'an's own mother can just pay it back. Didn't her biological father, Xiaozong, die in depression at a young age
If His Highness really gets into trouble and suffers from a heart attack and dies at a young age, then not only you, but also the entire Xie family will suffer a big loss!
After all, Xie Wuzheng and his wife have nothing to do. If Sui'an is gone, even if Xie Wuzheng announces that he will never marry again, can the relationship with the royal family not fade away
Xie Wuzheng, who was initially disapproving of this, couldn't help but feel awe-struck. He pondered for a moment and said slowly: "What the empress said is... I will go back and have a frank talk with His Highness. If His Highness really wants to have an heir, I will try to do something about it." "
Then two days later, Yun Fenghuang listened to Chen Jing's report and said that Xie Wuzheng decided to send someone to take the twin nieces of Xie's second wife to the eldest princess in order to prevent the eldest princess Sui'an from worrying too much about the emptiness under her knees. Mansion, Chenghuan Sui'an came forward.
"How could it be the second wife's child?" Yun Fenghuang was a little confused about the couple's operation.
Previously, Sui'an had taken a fancy to Si Fang's gratitude, and it could be understood that Jinzhi Yuye also wanted to get closer to Yun Fenghuang and specifically chose Yun Fenghuang's direct nephew.
At this moment, Xie Wuzheng chose the second bedroom... When she was at home, she had never heard of any friendship between Xie Wuzheng and the second bedroom!
"It is said that the two Miss Xie were born with pink makeup and beautiful looks, and they are very similar. Even their biological parents can't tell them apart." Chen Jing guessed, "Perhaps it is for this reason that they can win the favor of His Highness."
After all, things are rare and valuable, and beautiful twins are more pitiful than a little girl alone.
Yun Fenghuang thought that Xie Wuzheng's original intention was to hope that Sui'an would be happy. Don't worry about it all the time. No matter how well-behaved two children are, they will definitely have more to worry about than one child. Perhaps she felt that having a pair of twins by her side would make Sui'an feel more sad. This is also a good idea.
The Xie family has many heirs. There are only dozens of them in her generation, and even more in the next generation.
So she didn't know much about the twins, so she asked about the situation.
Chen Jing said: "She is the concubine's daughter from the second wife. I heard that her biological mother had passed away in childbirth, and she was raised by her aunt since she was a child. Because she was so cute, she was always raised as her aunt... She is three years old this year. Earlier, His Highness was at the Xie Mansion. When I was a child, I liked them. But I didn’t like them as much as the young master Zhongzhong.”
Yun Fenghuang had some impression of Xie Zhong, but it was relatively weak.
Because when she left the Northland, the child was still an infant. She remembered that he was an extremely difficult child to take care of and was noisy all the time. At that time, Jiang and other people who came here joked that after waiting for a few years, they would be afraid that the master would come to the house again.
However, although such children are naughty, they are also cute in the eyes of some elders.
Maybe Sui'an likes this
However, since Xie Wuzheng had no intention of doing so, Yun Fenghuang did not want to contribute to this matter.
Hearing this, he smiled and said: "That's fine. Your Highness is young and has a distinguished status. In fact, there is no need to embarrass yourself over trivial matters."
Then he thought about it and asked, "You just took the children to live in the eldest princess's mansion? Didn't you mention the adoption?"
"No." Chen Jing whispered, "From the looks of the consort, I don't seem to have such plans. I only said that His Highness likes the two Miss Xie and wants to imitate the Empress and take her niece into her lap to enjoy family happiness."
Yun Fenghuang nodded and didn't say anything. They were just two concubine nieces. No matter how they were treated as legitimate daughters in the Xie family, how could they achieve success in one step by living in the eldest princess's mansion
Even if he doesn't succeed to the eldest princess, his future is extremely bright.
Especially since the eldest princess has so much emptiness, she cannot be raised as a daughter.
Even if Xie Wuzheng and his wife have biological children in the future, the eldest princess's house will not be short of three melons and two dates, and they will have to arrange their future. If Xie Wuzheng and his wife never have biological children, then sooner or later these two will have to make arrangements for them. Daughter's.
She didn't worry anymore and just said: "I hope His Highness can always be happy in the future."
Chunjia asked about this when she came over, and Yun Fenghuang said straight away that it was because Sui'an couldn't handle it, and the prince-in-law was afraid that she would fall ill from boredom, so he took his niece over to relieve her boredom.
At the end, he was angry with the emperor: "What? Your Majesty thinks that the prince-in-law only cares about his own children and nephews, and does not pay attention to the younger generations of his wife's family? But although your Majesty has many imperial heirs, who should be called to the eldest princess?"
Chunjia laughed and said, "Where did you think you were? I just asked casually after hearing what someone said."
After a pause, he said slowly, "Actually, my concubine also mentioned the matter between the two of them to me tactfully earlier. It is indeed not a problem for Sui An to be empty all the time... If Xie Wuzheng wants to adopt his nephew, It’s okay.”
Yun Fenghuang was not surprised by the emperor's remission, so he sighed: "I also know that your majesty is not an unkind person. But my brother is very stubborn! Since he is determined to guard your highness until the end of his life, it is difficult for him to change his mind. … The two children this time are just here to live as nieces, but they are not adopted. If the niece is like this, do you think he will agree to adopt a nephew? "
