Chapter 1098 Dilemma of the Gengzi Volume
Feng Ziying is also puzzled by this situation.
For this reason, his mother and aunt specifically asked him about his sexual relationship with Eryou during the time he went to Yongping Mansion, and asked himself whether he was treating one favorably over the other, which made Feng Ziying laugh and cry.
I only have two women in Yongping Mansion, Eryou, at most Jin Chuaner and Xiangling. But both Jinchuaner and Xiangling knew that Eryou was obsessed with getting pregnant, so they wisely staggered the time. It’s a contraceptive, so it’s normal not to be pregnant, but Eryou has no taboos and chooses the best time to have sex, but there’s still no reaction, which is incomprehensible.
Generally speaking, after the mistress is pregnant, the concubines can choose the opportunity to get pregnant, but Eryou, the only favorite, failed to conceive, which can't help but make the Duan family worried, but Shen Yixiu got pregnant so quickly. That's why Duan and his wife doubted whether their son was deliberately causing trouble.
"Who knows? Second Sister You is very anxious. Maybe she has to wait until you give birth to the child before she feels at ease?" Feng Ziying said with a smile: "There is no rush, the days are long."
Shen Yixiu smiled. In fact, she was also under pressure. It would be fine if she gave birth to a son, but if it was a daughter, the Xue sisters would marry into the Feng family. However, there is only one husband and only one in-laws. Whoever can give birth to a legitimate son earlier will definitely make his parents-in-law more happy.
If the child he gives birth to is a daughter, then if Eryou gives birth to a son, he will be the eldest son of a concubine. Although Shen Yixiu believes that it will not affect his status, this distinction has always been an incomprehensible contradiction in the big family. A little carelessness can affect family harmony.
Of course, Shen Yixiu also hopes that he can give birth to a son. With the eldest son, the eldest son will basically have no troubles in the family lineage, but he cannot control this.
In his heart, Feng Ziying didn't care too much about the distinction between direct concubines and concubines, but he also knew that it was not something he could decide whether he cared about or not. The distinction between direct concubines and concubines was extremely important in this era and would not change because of his own attitude. That is, father and mother They will also take this matter very seriously.
“My husband said this, but he pushed me onto the stove. If I give birth to a daughter,...” Shen Yixiu said calmly.
"Hey, if I think about it from my own heart, I would rather Wanjun give birth to a daughter. They say that a daughter is most like a father, and loves him the most, and is obedient. If Wanjun gives birth to a daughter this time, she will be our family's daughter. Princess..."
Before Feng Ziying finished speaking, Shen Yixiu was startled, "Ms. sir, how can you say such things?"
Seeing Shen Yixiu's change of expression, Feng Ziying smiled and waved her hands: "Okay, okay, I won't say it. I'm just making an analogy, how can it be so exaggerated?"
"I can't use an analogy. Your husband is an official in the court. You must be careful in this situation. Misfortune comes from your mouth..." Shen Yixiu said angrily.
"I understand, good wife, well, it's good to have a daughter anyway, and it won't be too late to have a son next time..." Feng Ziying also relieves Shen Yixiu's stress. Her mother and aunt are watching her all day long, and she is afraid that Shen Yixiu will too. Tremendous stress.
Shen Yixiu could also understand Feng Ziying's kindness and was moved in his heart, "My husband, you don't have to worry about me. Since I can give birth to one child, I can naturally give birth to a second one. I will eventually give birth to a legitimate son for my husband."
Feng Ziying didn't expect Shen Yixiu to be so resolute. She was stunned for a moment and then laughed, "That's a good thing. My mother and aunt must be applauding with joy."
“Well, so my husband doesn’t have to be too persistent. If there is a chance, Qingwen and Yun Shang can do the same..."
Shen Yixiu glanced at Qingwen and Yun Shang beside him, and the two girls' faces immediately turned red. Grandma had said this several times, but this was the first time she said it in front of the uncle. No matter what, grandma could Saying this is a favor to the two girls.
Qingwen and Yun Shang both stood up quickly and said, "Grandma, please don't say this. How dare you slaves to be so overstepping..."
Shen Yixiu waved his hands indifferently, "You two followed me, and you are both from a family of women. How can I still treat my own people badly? If you can spread the branches of the Feng family, you will all be my children in the future, which is of course a good thing. Could it be that you two still can’t trust me?”
Yunshang was so moved that he was so moved that he choked with tears and knelt down to kowtow. Even Qingwen, who had such a rebellious temperament, also knelt down with her eyes red.
But Shen Yixiu's character and attitude are enough to make Qingwen and Yun Shang feel grateful and loyal.
Even Feng Ziying had to admire Shen Yixiu's magnanimity. These words were enough to make Qingwen and Yun Shang fall into despair.
This is also the case these days. Whether a concubine gives birth to a child or a daughter-in-law gives birth to a child, the nominal mother is the aunt, and the other biological mothers can only be called aunt. Of course, Feng Ziying doesn't think it is so harsh. But this is the case with the patriarchal etiquette of this era.
Seeing Shen Yixiu greeting the two girls, Feng Ziying felt that she was really lucky to have a wife like Shen Yixiu in her backyard. Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin were going to get married in two months. She didn't know what the future of the two families would be like, but Baochai's temperament is not bad, but Baoqin's temperament is quite strong. I don't know whether Baochai and Baochai can get along harmoniously in the future, but considering that they are two sisters, and Baochai took the initiative to ask Baoqin to marry together You should be somewhat sure, right?

Prince Yoshitaka paced back and forth in the hall impatiently. Now that the matter had come to a point, he needed to make a decision.
The news coming back from all parties was both good and bad, leaving him at a loss as to what to do. The various contradictory information even made him feel as if his head was about to collapse.
"Your Majesty, please be patient. The more urgent the matter, the more cautious we need to be. We cannot afford such a failure." Chu Qi felt uneasy when he saw his boss's impatience.
“Mr. Chu, you should know that an opportunity must never come back again. If you miss this opportunity...”
Prince Yi Zhong's words were interrupted by Chu Qi in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if we miss it, we can still rely on Nanbian'er, but if this is a trap, or it is not as optimistic as we imagined, it will kill us. No burial place!”
“Wealth and honor are found in danger,…” Prince Yizhong said through gritted teeth.
"Your Majesty, now we feel that everything we can control is actually based on the wishes of others. Chen Jixian keeps saying that he will obey your orders, but looking at his letters to you, they are all filled with vague language. When What's the use of patting my chest in front of you? If something happens in the future, will he admit it? Without this, he can watch the situation and turn around at any time. Maybe when he swears allegiance to you, he will tell the emperor all this! "
Chu Qi's words made Prince Yizhong's attitude suddenly drop. He muttered: "Jixian will not let Gu down. If Gu didn't strongly recommend him to his father, how would he have been able to sit on the position of General of the Fifth Army Camp? "
“But what he wanted was the position of Jiedushi in the capital, but you failed to give it to him!” Chu Qi said solemnly.
"No one can give him this position! From Prince Teng to Niu Jizong, the fourth child has tolerated Niu Jizong for two years, which is the maximum limit. Unless the governor of the Beijing camp is the most trusted person of the fourth child, no one else can even think about it. It’s the same if my father comes forward! It’s the best if I can let him be the general of the fifth military camp. Chen Jixian is just an excuse!”
Prince Yoshitaka couldn't help roaring.
"If this is an excuse, it only means that he is more suspicious and untrustworthy!" Chu Qi said unceremoniously: "Maybe it is a trap to invite you to the urn. The emperor is saying that he can't find any reason to attack you, the prince. You are like this If you act rashly, don't you give others a handle?"
Being speechless by his number one think tank, Prince Yoshitaka was so angry that his chest heaved rapidly, but he could not find a suitable reason to argue.
"Qiu Shi followed the fourth son wholeheartedly, but not a single soldier from his Shenshu Battalion was transferred out. What's the reason for this? Do you think the fourth son didn't expect this?" Prince Yi Zhong gritted his teeth and said: "Of course I know. There are dangers here, but if we miss this opportunity, we may regret it for the rest of our lives."
"It's better to regret it for the rest of your life than to be in jail with your neck waiting to be cut." Chu Qi said politely, "I very much doubt the commander-in-chief of Jizhen, You Shigong. Although his transfer had to go through the Ministry of War and Feng Tang, who knows whether he had direct contact with The emperor is on the hook? If so, everything we do now may be controlled by him, and he is even planning how to deal with it. "
Frightened by Chu Qi's stern words, Prince Yi Zhong suddenly turned around and said, "Are you saying that the Chahar people are acting alone, and that Lin Dan Batur and Lao Si are playing a double act?"
"That's not the case. If the emperor dares to play with the fate of millions of people in Shuntian Prefecture, he will put the scholars and civil servants on the opposite side." Chu Qi shook his head, "But the Chahar people are not without their weaknesses. The people of Outer Khalkha did not completely surrender to them, and on the Caojiazhai side, Li Ruzhang's tribe was always defeated, which prevented the Chahar people from going all out. Didn't Yongping Prefecture say that there was a support army sent out to reinforce the fortress? Is it true? Is it just a verbal statement to boost morale, or is it true? No one can tell. Maybe only Feng Ziying, the emperor and the two people from the Ministry of War know about it, and even the cabinet members may not know it. "
"But as long as Niu Jizong dares to make up his mind, even if Chen Jixian doesn't listen to Gu, Gu can still open the city gate!" Prince Yizhong gritted his teeth and said: "As long as the Xuanfu army enters the city, everything will not be a problem!"
