Uncle Qi Wang snorted: "My son is a good-for-nothing. Only the one you gave birth to can be successful!"
In fact it is.
None of the children Uncle Qi had with other women were angry, but Princess Qi did not dare to admit it openly. She smiled and said: "I didn't mean that, why did the prince hear it wrong?"
She sighed: "What I mean is that this child must be able to help His Majesty before he can be of any use to the palace."
In order to make her husband agree that she could adopt a powerful adopted son from outside, she thought of ways to shake Uncle Qi Wang: "I can also adopt a bastard to my name, raise him well, and continue the incense of the palace, but he is just
Just continuing the incense will not bring any achievements, achievements, or even glory to the palace.
I know that your husband is a prince, which is already very honorable. However, your majesty and your husband are not close to each other. My husband must have been worried about this. You can think about your majesty’s attitude towards the palace when Jianxiu was alive.
Now that Jianxiu is gone, what is His Majesty's attitude? Yes, His Majesty still respects you as an uncle, but the number of visits to the palace is getting less and less.
Everyone is earning fame, and every prestigious family is earning merit. I feel that as the Prince of Qi, I have to stand in front of other families no matter what, so as not to disgrace the prestige of the palace and the status of the prince.
Furthermore, if the prince feels that the adopted son is not of his own blood, then when we adopt this adopted son, we can adopt another bastard son in my name. In this way, the prince will have a legitimate son and an adopted son who can earn merits, killing two birds with one stone.
ah."
Uncle Qi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Princess Qi. It must be said that Princess Qi's words really touched Uncle Qi's heart.
Uncle Qi Wang also wanted the palace to have prestige, but he didn't like hard work or wielding swords and guns, so he had several concubines who all followed his temperament and were so weak that it made people upset to see them.
Fortunately, the heir apparent is a rare talent. He must have inherited the blood of the Chen family, because this son once made the royal family very glorious.
But after his son's death, the palace was really getting worse year by year, and His Majesty became more and more indifferent.
In addition, this time he sent a killer to assassinate the Yan family, but His Majesty grabbed him by the pigtails. Your Majesty did not punish him, but sending out the palace guards with great fanfare was a warning to him. His Majesty must have had feelings for him in his heart.
If he doesn't quickly think of some way to win over the Sacred Heart, he is afraid that the relationship between uncle and nephew will really get further and further apart in the future.
Uncle Qi Wang pondered for a moment and said: "You are right to consider it, but it is not easy to find a powerful adopted son, right?"
Princess Qi said: "It's really hard to find. Under normal circumstances, I'm afraid I won't be able to find someone you like. After all, if the child is powerful, no family is willing to give it up. But four years ago, Qi was defeated and many soldiers died."
, Most of those dead soldiers had families and children. In the past four years, there must have been some hardships and hardships. As long as the prince sends people to look for those people’s homes, they will definitely find a powerful child. I don’t believe it, then.
In families with many soldiers, none of their children are powerful. If there are, they are not very old and just happen to be adopted, and..."
At this point, she paused for a moment, and then said softly: "Enter the Holy Philosophy Academy with Yan Lang."
When Yan Lang was mentioned, Uncle Qi's face turned cold. He snorted and said, "Why do you want to go to school with Yan Lang?"
Princess Qi was afraid that Uncle Qi would be angry, so she explained: "Yan Lang and Chen Hong competed in the martial arts field, and Chen Hong lost. It can be seen that Yan Lang's martial arts is very powerful. It can be said that there is no one among his peers in Guiyang City."
Who can be his opponent? Since he is so powerful, he naturally wants our children to follow him so that he can become more and more powerful in the future.
Furthermore, Yan Ning is proficient in astronomy and geography. I think she will definitely teach Yan Lang to learn these things. Our children should also be able to learn some of the essence from Yan Lang. Your Majesty, just imagine that when our children master the
When the method of winning a battle is extraordinary and the force is extraordinary, will His Majesty be particularly impressed?"
Uncle Qi was moved by what he said, but he still had knots in his heart. He said quietly: "If this method is feasible, then we don't need any adopted son. We can choose the most qualified concubine in the palace to adopt him, and then let him be adopted."
Wouldn't it be better for him to study with Yan Lang?"
Princess Qi did not respond on her face, but she was thinking in her heart, I will not give such a chance to the bastard in the palace.
There are several concubines in the palace, and the biological mother is here. The prince is already at this age. It is conceivable that the children are not young anymore. The biological mother is still alive and the children are big. They were adopted and raised by her to be outstanding. In the end, they will be glorious.
Who is?
Princess Qi wanted to find an adopted son and train him to be a talented person, not only for the sake of Prince Qi's palace, but also for the sake of Chen's family.
Her younger sister, the Crown Princess, has no children, so no matter how noble she is, she is just a Crown Princess. When His Majesty has a queen, her dignity as a Crown Princess will be greatly reduced and her weight will become less and less.
The third brother died in the battle, and the fourth brother was incompetent. Although there were Chen Dongyan and Chen Hong among the younger generation, the battlefield was ruthless. Who knew that one day these two would not go to the battlefield or die in battle?
In order to keep the Chen family from falling forever, she must adopt an adopted son and keep him by her side, not only to add glory to the palace, but also to prepare a way out for the Chen family.
Therefore, this child must not be of royal blood.
Princess Qi responded: "Your Majesty is right, but things like talent are difficult to change. I'm worried that the concubine with the highest qualifications will not learn anything if he follows Yan Lang. Once he comes, he may
If you don’t have the heart to learn, there is a chance that he won’t understand or learn, and besides, the youngest bastard in the palace is seventeen or eighteen years old, how can he study with Yan Lang?”
Uncle Qi Wang frowned, and then he thought that among the concubines in the palace, the youngest one seemed to be seventeen years old, and Yan Lang was only eleven years old this year.
In desperation, Uncle Qi Wang could only say: "Then adopt an adopted son. On the day of adoption, a bastard will be born in your name."
Princess Qi achieved her goal and no longer cared about having multiple stepsons. She smiled and said, "Then the prince will have to send someone to handle this matter."
Uncle Qi Wang nodded: "I will let people carefully select." He then asked: "If you adopt an adopted son and let him study with Yan Lang, can your Chen family rely on you?"
When Princess Qi thought of Chen Yurong, she felt really bad. As her niece, she hated Yan Ning so much now, and she also hated Yan Lang. If she adopted her adopted son and let him stay with Yan Lang, she would definitely let her
Chen Yurong felt that she wanted to get close to Yan Ning, and Chen Yurong would have to ask and confront her.
This is really an annoying thing.
But the matter of adopting a son was something she had considered over and over again, and no one could stop her.
Princess Qi said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter well."
Uncle Qi Wang said nothing more. He went to the study, called the housekeeper, and told him to find his adopted son. The housekeeper immediately sent someone to take care of it.
After Yan Ning finished their supper, Wang Dazhuang cleaned the house, Li's mother tidied up the kitchen, Niandie went to the backyard to make the bed, and Guo Xi was also helping to pick up bowls and carry plates, because everyone was full and wanted to move around, Guo Xin ran into the study
, wipe the bookshelf and desk.
Yan Ning refused to let Yan Lang practice sword practice. Firstly, it was dark, and secondly, he had just eaten, so it was not suitable for sword practice. Yan Ning took Yan Lang to the backyard and continued to teach him the art of geography until Yan Lang felt sleepy.
Yan Ning then let him go back to sleep.
The next day, on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, after breakfast, Mother Li went to the street to buy cloth, and then brought the cloth back and sewed it herself. Yan Ning had ordered clothes for Yan Lang before, but Mother Li hadn't come yet at that time. Yan Ning didn't know how to tailor.
Niandie knows a little better, but she has no time to do it while serving Yan Ning. Now that Mother Li can do it, Mother Li will not spend extra money to let others do it.
Mother Li bought the cloth and reported it to Yan Ning. Knowing that Mother Li wanted to make her own clothes, Yan Ning gave Mother Li some more money. Mother Li did not refuse and left with the money.
After Li's mother left, Niandie whispered: "Miss, we don't have much money left."
Yan Ning also knows that the expenses during this period are a bit high. With several more people in the family, the expenses will be even greater in the future, and there will be more places to spend money. The tuition fees are also expensive for Yanlang to go to school. In the future, she will make friends with
Friends also need money when they go out to eat and have fun together.
Yan Ning thought for a while and said, "Let's go out for a walk in the afternoon and see if there is any suitable way to make money."
Niandie stared in shock: "Miss, do you want to do business in Guiyang City?"
"no."
"and you……"
"I don't have time to do it. We will go back to the palace after the Lantern Festival."
Nian Die was convinced: "So, Miss, can you find a way to make money?"
Yan Ning shook his head: "I don't know, but you will know when you meet him."
In the morning, Yan Ning still taught Yan Lang how to learn geography, and it was still in her backyard. It was not that she hid it, but because she couldn't let Guo Xin learn with Yan Lang. She could teach Yan Lang first, and then let Yan
Lang teaches Guo Xin, so that Guo Xin will have more respect for Yan Lang.
After eating at noon and taking a nap, Yan Ning went out.
Wang Dazhuang drove the carriage, and Yan Ning and Nian Die were sitting in the carriage. The stove was burning and it was very warm.
The carriage first went to East Street. Today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Some shops on East Street are already open. When passing by Yuxiang Tower, I saw a person standing in front of Yuxiang Tower. I took a closer look and saw that it was actually a thank you mirror ceremony. Thank you mirror ceremony.
There was also a girl with me. It was the night of New Year's Eve. The dashing girl I saw on the cruise ship seemed to be named Erdan.
Yan Ning remembered in a daze that Xie Jingli had a sister named Sheridan.
Yan Ning withdrew her gaze, sat in the carriage, and continued to look for business opportunities.
After shopping East Street, we went to West Street, then South Street, but we didn’t go to North Street.
Because it was only the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, many shops were closed, and it was indeed difficult to find business opportunities. After spending a long time and failing to find any business opportunities, Yan Ning was a little discouraged and asked Wang Dazhuang to drive the carriage back directly.
After a short rest, he called Yan Lang again and taught him the art of geographies.
After dinner, Yan Ning stopped clinging to Yan Lang. Yan Lang found an opportunity to practice swordplay. Guo Xin stood beside him with bright eyes.
Yan Lang smiled and asked: "Guo Xin, do you want to come together?"
Guo Xin quickly waved his hand: "Master, I don't know how to do it. I only know some simple boxing and kicking skills. I practiced them to avoid bad guys. I have never learned swords and I don't have a serious master. I don't dare to spar with the master."
sword."
Yan Lang asked: "Do you want to learn?"
Guo Xin paused and whispered, "I thought so."
He also has selfish motives. The reason why he is willing to be Yan Lang's book boy is that he also wants to learn martial arts with him.
Yan Lang said: "Today is late. I will take you to the street to buy a sword tomorrow. However, the money my fourth sister gave me is not much, so I cannot buy a good sword. Moreover, my fourth sister cannot know about this..."
At this point, he was a little worried and changed his words: "I think it's better to wait until my fourth sister returns to the palace. I will take you to buy a sword. Then I will teach you to practice swordsmanship. When you have made some progress, we can
Let’s have a discussion in the courtyard.”
It's not interesting for Yan Lang to practice swordsmanship by himself. He has to find an opponent. Although Guo Xin is just starting out, he still has his own opinions, which may be of some help to him.
Guo Xin said happily: "Everything depends on the young master. It is Guo Xin's honor to be able to learn swordsmanship from the young master. You can learn it whenever you want. There is no rush."
Two people were talking in the front yard, and there was a knock on the door.
Mother Li hurriedly ran to open the door. When she came back, she held a letter in her hand and went to the backyard.
Mother Li handed the letter to Yan Ning, and Yan Ning asked: "A letter from the Liu family?"
Mother Li nodded: "That's what the boy who delivered the letter said."
Yan Ning murmured: "I understand, you go and do your work."
After Li's mother left, Yan Ning opened the letter, and sure enough it was written to her by Liu Baoluo. Liu Baoluo said in the letter that she would have one day to come out tomorrow and asked her to meet at Jinmei Pavilion in the morning.
Yan Ning knows about Jinmei Pavilion, a famous jade shop in Guiyang City. Although it has a jade sign, it sells a lot of things, including gold and silver. I heard that the masters there are also very powerful and have very good craftsmanship. In addition to making ordinary
In addition to selling products in the store, they also specialize in custom-made handicrafts.
Most of the ladies and ladies in Guiyang City like to go there to buy things, so it was perfect for Liu Baoluo to ask her to go there.
Yan Ning read Liu Baoluo's letter with a smile on her face. Although Liu Baoluo was outspoken and sincere, she was also a very smart girl.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Yan Ning asked Yan Lang to change clothes.
Yan Lang didn't know what he was doing and asked: "Fourth sister, why do you want to change clothes?"
When Yan Lang was at home, he wore very ordinary clothes. Yan Ning made several sets of gorgeous brocade robes for him, but he never touched them.
Yan Ning said: "We went out today, did you forget?"
Yan Lang really forgot and didn't understand why he went out. He looked at Yan Ning blankly.
Yan Ning said angrily: "Today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and I have an appointment to meet Liu Baoluo's sister!"
Yan Lang suddenly realized it and exclaimed: "Yes, yes, there is such a thing, and my brother has forgotten it."
He stepped into the house, took three steps, and then turned back: "Fourth sister, we meet when we meet, why do we need to change clothes?"
Later Yan Lang: Fortunately, I listened to my fourth sister and changed my clothes that day.
Well, Yan Lang will meet Liu Yuchan in the next chapter.
Liu Yuchan: Why does this boy look familiar?
Yan Lang: The little girl today has particularly bright eyes and white teeth.
