Chapter 544 The Person Who Shouldn't Be Pregnant Is Pregnant
As soon as Wang Zheng entered the back hall of the palace, he saw Fan Wu in the imperial garden.
At this time, she was sitting sideways on the stone railing of a small bridge, looking down at the trickling water of the small river, occasionally the fish jumped out of the water and splashed water, which splashed the woman's temples and forehead, but Fan Wu was not at all. He didn't care, he seemed to be lost in deep thought, and he didn't know what to think of, his expression was a bit complicated, and his brows were concentrating and lonely.
Since Wang Zheng pretended to return to Xuzhou before, until he re-entered Shouchun, the two hadn't seen each other for a long time due to complicated affairs. When they met in the palace at this time, Wang Zheng couldn't help but feel a subtle feeling of intimacy and strangeness, and walked away slowly. In the past, Wen Yan asked, "What is Madam looking at?"
Fan Wu, who was staring at the fish swimming in the stream, didn't notice it until she heard a familiar human voice behind her, and her delicate body trembled in shock.
Until Gu Pan turned his head and saw that it was Wang Zheng, his face immediately showed a look of joy, and immediately got up, raised his skirt, bowed down and said respectfully: "My family pays homage to Zhou Mu."
Wang Zheng took her jade hand, walked to the pavilion beside him and sat down, then he hugged the woman's slender waist with ease, stared at her delicate face like jade, and said suddenly: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Madam has lost a lot of energy." .”
When Fan Wu hugged him, she immediately felt her tender body limp and weak, with one side of her body leaning directly on Wang Zheng's shoulder, obviously it was late autumn and cold, but her cheeks were as red as the summer sun, shy and timid Di said angrily: "Zhou Mu, don't be like this, okay? The underground people come and go frequently, so they will see you."
Shouchun's surname is now Wang, so I'm afraid of who will see it?
Hearing Fan Wu's words, Wang Zheng became more teasing. He immediately laughed, stretched his ape's arms lightly, and sat Fan Wu on his lap. Fan Wu just let out a coquettish cry because he lost his balance, and found that Wang Zheng had reached out to touch him. her jaw.
Fan Wu turned her head away, Wang Zheng's head followed, caught the woman's crimson lips, and made a deep dive.
"Uh, uh!"
The woman's fragrance was sucked, and she turned around and struggled immediately, hiding her face downwards, as if she didn't want to be seen, but she was pinned down by Wang Zheng's tiger palms, and she couldn't turn the slightest bit, only in the whimpering sound , the whole body became softer and softer, and the head gradually tilted back, and the tender arms that were stretched out to push and push could not help but climbed onto Wang Zheng's neck.
After a long lingering time, when they parted again, Fan Wu was dizzy with shame and dazed, unable to speak for a while, Wang Zheng was also moved by the smell of fragrant orchid in her mouth, and only Feel the skin of the lips numb, there is an indescribable taste, just like a little lotus, sweet in the bottom of my heart.
Wang Zheng pursed his lips and thought about it for a moment, then he looked at Fan Wu, and said proudly: "This is to punish you for being so restrained in front of me just now, are you willing to accept the punishment?"
After this intimacy, the alienation between them has long since disappeared. Fan Wu felt both sweet and ashamed. She gave him a coquettish glance, and immediately leaned towards him, her cheeks pressed against Wang Zheng's face. On the ground, they rubbed each other lightly, muttering between their mouths, as if in a daze, and said angrily: "Ah Zheng, you are really domineering!"
The two cuddled together silently, rubbing their ears and temples together, just like a pair of mandarin ducks crossing their necks, a lingering feeling of sadness arose spontaneously.
Such a situation has never happened to Wang Zheng before. Although he has been in a relationship with Huo Shi, Bu Wan'er and even Mrs. Feng and other women, they are either older than himself, or they are cautious, and there are very few people. It will be like Fan Wu's side naturally showing the behavior of a child, and there will be no such sweet and sweet feeling of fighting against each other. It just feels fresh and comfortable, and almost indulges in it.
After a while, he quietly asked: "By the way, why did you come to the palace today? Are you here to see Feng Yu?" Feng Yu was exactly Mrs. Feng's boudoir name.
"Yes."
Hearing Wang Zheng mentioned Mrs. Feng, Fan Wu suddenly opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Wang Zheng with a slight snort, her expression suddenly became angry, and she bit her lip and said: "My family has not congratulated the state yet." What about shepherds?"
"Congratulate me?" Wang Zheng was startled when he heard the words: "Why?"
"Hmph, Zhou Mu can ask Mrs. Feng himself!"
For some reason, Fan Wu's tone suddenly changed, with inexplicable impatience and irritation, and when her rippling almond eyes looked at Wang Zheng, they became even more foggy, like a resentful woman who was stabbed.
Wang Zheng was even more puzzled, and just about to ask, he saw that Fan Wu didn't answer, but turned around, hesitated for a moment, then bowed her head and walked out.
baffling
Wang Zheng didn't know how long it had been since no one had been turned off like this. The first emotion was not anger but doubt. After staying for a while, he still couldn't figure out where Fan Wu's anger came from, so he didn't bother to think about it, scratched his head, and once again Get up and continue walking towards the inner hall where Mrs. Feng is.
Along the way, I saw all the maids and servants with happy faces, and became more and more suspicious. I caught a few and asked what was going on, but unexpectedly, they all answered in unison: "Madam specially ordered that she must inform Zhou personally about this matter." Mu, Zhou Mu will know when he goes to see his wife."
Although these people are all Mrs. Feng's followers, but now that Shouchun has changed hands, Mrs. Feng's status is naturally not as good as before. Her orders may not be very effective in front of Wang Zheng, let alone such bold people. The reason, unless something happened to make these people not only ecstatic, but also confident?
What made them believe that the king would not blame them?
Reminiscent of Fan Wu's sudden joy and anger just now.
Wang Zheng's heart suddenly moved, and a certain idea appeared faintly.
No way?This is certainly a good thing, a happy event, but Mrs. Feng
But it is not the right candidate for Wang Zheng, or even the civil and military officials under him!
When Wang Zheng set foot, Mrs. Feng was lying on the bed. She was extraordinary today. For some reason, she abandoned her past rich clothes and only wore a simple and generous robe. Apart from the accompanying maid, Wu Pu unexpectedly Sitting beside him, he was taking her pulse with a pair of gloves on.
Seeing Wang Zheng enter, Wu Pu immediately got up first to salute, bowed and said, "Meet the state shepherd."
Mrs. Feng also shook her body, as if she wanted to get up too, but as soon as she moved her body, she turned her face and covered her mouth, as if she was about to vomit.
"Excuse me."
Wang Zheng hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, and while moving to Madam Feng's side to sit down, he looked at Wu Pu and asked warmly, "Since Mr. is here again, could it be that Madam is ill?"
"Report to Zhou Mu." Wu Pu laughed and said, "Madam is not sick, but happy."
really!
Even though he was vaguely guessing in his heart, and even thought of the possible follow-up effects of Mrs. Feng's pregnancy, the moment he really confirmed this matter, Wang Zheng had no time to think about anything else, and immediately turned his head and looked sideways at Mrs. Feng.
Or to be more precise, he looked at the woman's lower abdomen without taking his eyes off it, as if there was only one existence in his eyes at this time, and there was an unconcealable and sincere ecstasy on his face.
"I have a son?"
He watched obsessively, muttered to himself, couldn't help but leaned over, and pressed his head tightly on Mrs. Feng's lower abdomen, as if he wanted to listen carefully to the vibration of the blood.
"Forehead"
Hearing this, Wu Pu on the side didn't know how to respond. He could understand Wang Zheng's mood, but he couldn't help but want to remind him that he only said that Mrs. Feng was pregnant, but he didn't guarantee the sex of the fetus.
And feeling the heat coming from the lover's body through the cloth, Mrs. Feng couldn't help but curl her lips, the shyness in her eyes could no longer conceal her joy.
Seeing Wang Zheng's subconscious reaction, she was completely relieved.
that's nice
Ah Zheng didn't have the slightest suspicion, nor did he have any worries.
But the other party didn't doubt it, but Mrs. Feng still wanted to take the initiative to clarify, so she said softly: "General, Mr. Wu said that the concubine is less than two months pregnant, and she can't hear the fetal heartbeat at this time."
Mrs. Feng is telling Wang Zheng through the number of days of pregnancy that this is definitely his flesh and blood.
Because Yuan Shu had already left Shouchun in early July, and Wang Zheng entered Shouchun in mid-August, and visited Mrs. Feng in the palace the next night after entering the city.
"Who said it? I heard it!"
Of course Wang Zheng was aware of Madam Feng's implication, but it was difficult for him to answer this topic. Hearing the words, he raised his head and looked at Madam Feng, and just smiled happily: "Madam is pregnant, this is God's help, since I have children, This will be a great cause!"
The so-called "There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no descendants is the greatest." Inheritance of lineage is extremely important in the hearts of most Chinese people in later generations, even surpassing Guangzong Yaozu. After all, having children and grandchildren represents their own blood, foundation, and clan. It will be passed on, so that the so-called Guangzong Yaozu has meaning.
Having no children, grandchildren, or heirs means that there are no successors, so even if you have achieved great achievements, what is the use?
This is still the case in later generations, let alone a feudal dynasty that ruled the world with loyalty and filial piety?
Especially Wang Zheng is not an ordinary commoner, he is a prince with the ambition to compete!
Only with heirs does it mean that the land that has been conquered has been passed on.
Wang Zheng's foundation has been inherited, and the wealth and honor of those who followed Wang Zheng to fight the world can be regarded as really stable.
It can be said that the problem of heirs is an out-and-out political problem for the superiors, even the biggest political problem. As long as there are no descendants for three years, the officials will persuade them to keep concubines. Princes with no births and no descendants, even if they have millions of soldiers and counselors like clouds and brave generals like rain, there is a threat of falling apart.
Wang Zheng is still young and unmarried, so this problem is not that serious at this time, but in fact, because of the analysis of Lu Bu by everyone, it is said that his biggest shortcoming is that he has no son, only one daughter, and he has already made him secretly. Things are on my mind.
In particular, Huo Si and Bu Wan'er didn't move for a long time, which also made Wang Zheng worry about gains and losses. He even thought that the original owner's body would not have any hidden diseases, right?
Now Mrs. Feng's pregnancy has finally solved this layer of hidden worries, even if the gender is still not sure, Wang Zheng has finally relieved, and let out a long breath.
Of course, in life, there is always more suffering than happiness.
Joy lasted only for a moment, when Wang Zheng woke up, and found that troubles followed one after another.
After leaving the inner hall, Wang Zheng immediately summoned Guo Jia and other important ministers, Wen and Wu, to come to the palace for discussion, and the focus was naturally on Mrs. Feng's pregnancy.
Generals such as Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and others naturally showed joyful expressions, got up one after another, knelt down on the ground, and shouted: "Congratulations, my lord! Congratulations, my lord! I wish my lord a precious son!"
However, civil servants such as Guo Jia and Mi Heng peeked at each other and frowned at the same time.
"I have just won Jiangdong now, and my lord will have successors. It is a great joy to have this double happiness with me in Xuzhou."
You Heng couldn't hold back, and took the lead to say: "It's just that if this son is a girl, it's fine. If it's a boy, he is the eldest son of the lord. His biological mother is Mrs. Feng. This is a bit inappropriate."
Hearing this, the hall fell silent.
Even warriors like Huang Zhong and Wei Yan realized what Mi Heng meant by inappropriateness.
In the eyes of later generations, the only difference between a father and a son is before and after birth, and there is no difference in status. However, in the Han Dynasty, when status was emphasized, it was completely different.
Because the original intention is mixed with the purpose of consolidating family property and power, the difference between the elder and the younger, and the division of the first and second concubines mostly means the level and amount of rights, status, and property, and even laments that "born from the same root, there is no need to fight each other". .
As far as "ethics and procedures" are concerned, in the alternation of power in the past dynasties, except for the violent coming to power, its ethical basis and succession procedures have been undergoing continuous evolution.
Xia Shi emphasized "passion from father to son", and Zhou added the model of "brother ends up with younger brother" to "passion from father to son". Since Qin Shihuang, he has directly clarified the system of "inheritance by the eldest son" with laws.
Whether it was the Eastern and Western Hans who inherited the Qin system, or even the later Jins, Sui, Tang, Song, Ming and other dynasties, even if there were cases of non-eldest sons such as Yang Guang and Li Shimin ascending to power, at least in official theory and actual regime In centralized inheritance, the Han Dynasty has always insisted on consolidating the inheritance system of the eldest son.
In layman's terms, the eldest son is the oldest son, but not all the eldest sons are the eldest sons. The difference is not difficult to understand, because "monogamy and multiple concubines" is the standard model in ancient Chinese marriages. There can only be one wife or no wife at a time, but there can be multiple concubines.
The wife is also the wife of the main house, and all the sons born to her are all legitimate sons, and the longest among the legitimate sons is the eldest son.
The concubine's family is the concubine's son, but the concubine's family is also divided into rich and poor, high and low, the mother is more expensive than the son, and the son is also more expensive than the mother.
Especially in the royal family, the mother's side represents the power of the relatives, and the mother's nobleness more means the strength of the relatives' family.Under the contempt chain of "the elders are different, the nobles are orderly", the eldest son is the optimal solution for the heir, and the other combinations are the second-best solutions, among which the eldest son and the eldest son will become options.
But in fact, under such circumstances, there will inevitably be disputes. If the eldest son is established, the son will definitely feel unwilling, and the son will not be tolerated by those in power in the future. Give, how can I take it away?"
An example that fully fits this predicament appeared in Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty. His main wife, the empress, had no sons. A son was born, so that Li Zhi had a son, so the eldest son who had been the crown prince for six years gave way to the later son.
It's a pity that the final result is that none of the eldest sons is good. Instead, Wu Zetian proclaims himself emperor with a female body.
Speaking of which, Mrs. Feng's identity is actually even more embarrassing.
Not only is she not Wang Zheng's wife, nor is she a concubine, she is also the former official wife of the great enemy Yuan Shu
Under this status, if he really got a boy and gave birth to an eldest son, he would be in trouble.
