Chapter 791: Backstage Is Harder
"How is that possible? This 'Princess Protector' was forcibly given to me by the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom. I refused several times and didn't refuse, so I just reluctantly accepted it!" Gu Ye defended.
Emperor Zhaorong naturally didn't believe her nonsense. He looked at the bunch of men and women kneeling in front of him, thought for a moment, and said: "Since this is a death-free card, I promised to go out. And Ye'er girl gave it to you as a dowry, it is naturally valid! Now, I Taking back this gold medal saves the Duke Xing's office of deceiving the king. However, the position of Duke Xing cannot be inherited by a woman!"
When Xing Zifeng heard this, she felt a pain in her heart: She still couldn't keep the Duke Xing's mansion. She was too selfish. In order to pursue her own happiness, she ruined the century-old foundation of the government. How can she have the face to meet the ancestors of the Xing family when she goes to the underworld in the future?
However, at this point, it is already very good to be able to save the lives of himself and his mother. She didn't dare to have any other extravagant hopes.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhaorong continued: "You still live in this Duke Xing's mansion. I also keep the title of Duke Xing for you. Didn't I say, choose one of your children to inherit the Duke's mansion? I agree Yes! Duke Xing's mansion, for the sake of Dongling's country, I will always remember the sacrifices and dedications I made!"
"Many thanks to the emperor for his kindness. Chen...I can't repay the emperor's kindness even if the servant girl died!"
Gu Ye also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming! In the future, if your Majesty has a place to gain a courtier's daughter, even if he opens his mouth, the courtier's daughter will never refuse!"
The reason why Emperor Zhaorong took Xing Guogong's affairs so lightly was because Xing Guogong went up and down and buried his bones in the battlefield for the sake of Dongling, leaving only the orphaned daughter and the widowed mother. The second is naturally to sell Gu Ye a good one. After all, such a young great pharmacist, no one can guarantee that he will not beg her in front of him.
His Royal Highness said first, "Miss Ye'er, didn't my father get seriously injured in the past two years? When I came in, I always felt chest tightness, difficulty breathing, and fatigue. Could you help me?"
"Didn't the imperial physician say so? There is nothing serious about my body, and the emperor should not make a fuss!" Although Emperor Zhaorong said so, he was still very satisfied with the emperor's filial piety.
Gu Ye stepped forward to check the pulse of Emperor Zhaorong, listened with a stethoscope, and said, "In the short term, there is really no serious problem. However, the emperor was injured near the heart and lungs at the time. Although the treatment was timely and appropriate, after all, the heart and lungs were injured. There are some sequelae."
"Then... what is the problem of the father's aftermath, can it be cured?" His Royal Highness the Prince asked nervously. Emperor Zhaorong was much calmer than him!
Gu Ye said: "The minister and daughter go back and study it carefully, and make a pill to nourish the heart and lungs, and then cooperate with the daily diet. This sequelae can be cured!"
Emperor Zhaorong and his son were obviously relieved when they heard that it could be cured. Emperor Zhaorong was only around forty years old, and it was when he was young and strong, and he was only five or six years old when he ascended the throne. There were many great achievements that had not been realized.
When the father and son (daughter) of Duke Zhenguo and Xing Zifeng came out of the imperial study, Gu Ye turned to look at his fourth brother and asked, "Fourth brother, you really belong to me, and I used a son who didn't exist, and put the four Sister-in-law's heart has been changed!"
"What is there? With the fine traditions of our family, can we still lack a son?" In the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, the son was worthless. If it was said that the adoptive daughter would go to the Duke of Xingguo's mansion, then Chu Xiaosi had to think about it carefully. If he gave birth to a cute little girl like Yuxue, like his sister, he would be reluctant to give her the surname Xing!
Xing Zifeng's eyes widened, and he glanced at Duke Zhen Guo with some trepidation. After all, it's a big deal to go out with an adopted son. Even families with many sons are reluctant to let their own children have someone else's surname. Fourth brother Chu is too unreliable to do things, right? Such a big thing, haven't told his parents yet? He didn't all coax her with his rhetoric back then, right?
For her sake, fourth brother Chu pleaded for her in front of the emperor regardless of his safety. This affection will never be false. But... if she really didn't want to adopt her son and inherit the Duke Xing's mansion, would she have to give up such a good man? For a while, Xing Zifeng was in a state of turmoil.
Seeing the entanglement in her heart, Chu Musong hurriedly reached out and held her hand: "Don't think about it. A manly man, you can make a promise. What I said will definitely be honored. Besides, even if my son takes your surname. , is also raised by our side, can you not kiss us and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion?"
This strong and powerful palm gave Xing Zifeng warmth and strength. She still worriedly said to Chu Musong softly, "It's better for you to go back and discuss with your family about this matter!"
The Duke of Zheng smiled boldly and said: "No need to discuss! Ye Er's mother is solely responsible for the dowry. If you have any special requirements, you can mention it to Xiao Si. As for the wedding date, I think the sooner the better. Otherwise, the title of the duke will always be placed with the emperor, making people uncomfortable!"
Xing Zifeng understood the meaning of his words, and immediately blushed, with bubbles of joy in his heart, and he kept going up. What Duke Zhen said was obviously agreeing to the child's inheritance of Duke Xing's mansion. She is now thinking of going back quickly and telling her mother the good news.
It was she who proposed to let one of the children take her surname and inherit Xing Guogong's mansion. Her mother disagrees! The wife of Xing Guogong's mansion is a gentle person, but she has no opinion. Otherwise, she would not have been persuaded when Xing Zifeng proposed to disguise herself as a man to keep the title of the Duke's Mansion.
But she is also a mother who loves her daughter, afraid that her daughter's life-long event will be delayed because of this. After all, although the fourth son of the Duke's Mansion was not the heir of the Duke's Mansion, he was the ideal son-in-law in the hearts of many noble ladies in Beijing.
Not to mention the princes and nobles in Beijing, they are ordinary people. Even if there is a little hope of living, they will not let their children have the surname of others. What's more, what about people like Zhenguo Gongfu?
Xing Zifeng thought, this time being called into the palace, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse, and my mother must be worried at home. Although the process is more thrilling, but the end result is good. She wanted to bring this good news to her mother as soon as possible to reassure her.
After leaving the palace gate, she said goodbye to her future father-in-law and sister-in-law, and rushed home impatiently. Gu Ye ridiculed his fourth brother: "Fourth brother, okay! In two years, you will be the son of the Duke's mansion and become his father! You plan to let the first son inherit the Duke of Xing's mansion. what!"
Chu Musong scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, and said, "The eldest son must inherit the family business. Then the second son... Father, what do you think?"
"Humph! I didn't discuss it with your grandfather and Lao Tzu, so I made my own decision and sent the children of our old Chu family out. You still have the face to ask Lao Tzu?" The public servant of the township responded with a nose. This account, go back and do a good calculation with you!
Chu Musong hurriedly said: "This is different from adoption. Although your grandson inherits the Duke Xing's mansion, he is still your grandson, my son!"
"Humph! It's the same as their old Xing family's surname, so is it still a member of our old Chu family?" Duke Zhen frowned.
Gu Ye hurriedly said: "Why not? The blood is here!"
"Forget it, go back and tell your mother about this! I'm too lazy to care about you!" Duke Zhen Guo thought that because of the fourth child, his daughter was frightened by the emperor in front of the emperor (actually not), and he didn't care about the fourth child. With a good face, "Stinky boy, how much care and risk your sister has taken for your marriage, if you dare to treat her badly in the future, I'll see how I fix you!"
Chu Musong bowed to Gu Ye and said solemnly: "Thanks to my sister today, the fourth brother has written down this love!"
"We brothers and sisters, why are you being polite? Let the future Xing Guogong show more filial piety to my aunt, that's all!" Gu Ye suddenly felt that he had a father and a nephew of the father, and the background became more and more Hard, the waist is straighter!
The heart of the ancients to gossip should not be underestimated, and soon, the news that Xing Guogong was a daughter spread in the capital. Those soldiers in the Xishan camp who had been in the same trench with Xing Guogong were stunned when they heard about it. They didn't expect "Mulan" to be by their side!
After Xing Zifeng's identity was made public, he stopped going to Xishan Camp for training. Every day at home, he was forced by his mother to learn what girls should learn. Marrying into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, there are so many concubines to compare, but you can't lose the face of Duke Xingguo's mansion.
She didn't go to the camp, but Chu Musong couldn't escape! Those soldiers and soldiers who had a special relationship with him came up to him and said, "Wow! The rabbit still doesn't eat the grass on the edge of the nest! You're good, the bird quietly took Xing Guogong back. Honestly, when did you know Xing Guogong? Is it a woman?"
"Let me guess! It must be the last time the bandits were suppressed! Xing Guogong was seriously injured, but you are all the brothers taking care of you! It's better to get the first month when you are near the water tower!"
"What do I say! Why did you come back from the bandit suppression operation, and you changed the camp and went with Xing Guogong together. It turned out to be ulterior motives! Say, have you... eh?"
Chu Musong hurriedly said, "Where do you want to go! Brother, am I like that?"
"That's hard to say. A man, the night is dark and windy, alone, with a man and a woman, in the same room, it's inevitable that he won't be able to control himself!" A young general winked at him, showing an understanding expression.
"I'm not like you, I'm full of belly. Zifeng and I are pure and innocent. If you listen to any of you saying dirty words, don't blame my fist for not agreeing!" Chu Musong waved his fist at them. .
"Cut! It's boring! With the beauty on your side, fourth brother Chu is actually indifferent. I said, are you the reincarnation of Liuxia Hui, or are you 'no' in that respect!" .
