Meng Jinyao looked at the child and felt that it was so cute no matter how cute it was. All the hard work was worth it.

Gu Jingxi looked at her gentle smile and her child's eyes, which were full of love. He had a vague feeling that from today on, he seemed to be falling out of favor, and he was still being taken away from his favor by a newborn baby.

Gu Jingxi called her resentfully: "Ayao."

Meng Jinyao now only cares about children, so she didn't even notice that there was something wrong with his tone, and said softly: "Husband, our son is so cute, and he is very well-behaved when he sleeps."

Gu Jingxi: "...?"

Here, whose child is not well-behaved while sleeping? Whose child makes a fuss when asleep? It is true that when a mother looks after her children, she can boast about even the most ordinary things.

Meng Jinyao looked up at Gu Jingxi, then looked down at her son, and compared them carefully. She couldn't tell whether her son looked like her husband or herself, so she added, "I guess he is still young and hasn't grown up yet. I can't tell it yet." Like you or like me."

Gu Jingxi said "hmm".

Meng Jinyao added: "But his facial features are really good-looking. He will definitely look better when he grows up."

Gu Jingxi: "..."

He didn't understand how A Yao could open his eyes and tell lies like this. Although he was a father and he cared about this little guy, he respected the facts and couldn't praise the child for being good-looking against his will. The child was wrinkled and... It's quite ugly, but it has nothing to do with being pretty.

He reached out, gently touched his son's little face, and wondered: "We always thought he was a little girl before. I named him, and he responded to me. How come he was born a boy? The name I thought of before , are no longer needed now.”

Meng Jinyao was silent for a moment before replying: "Husband, is it possible that he didn't like the name at that time, but was protesting?"

Gu Jingxi: "..."

Meng Jinyao asked: "In addition to thinking about your daughter's name, did you also think about your son's name?"

Gu Jingxi replied matter-of-factly: "When I was choosing a name, this brat responded to me. I just thought of him as a girl. What else could I want to name my son?"

Meng Jinyao said: "Then you can think of a name that a boy can use now."

Gu Jingxi looked at his son who was sleeping soundly and said directly: "Don't worry about the name. We will decide on it in a few days. My nickname will be Wanwan."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: "Wan, Wanwan?"

Gu Jingxi nodded lightly: "If you have a big name, you can always use a nickname."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao recited the nickname twice in her mind, then looked at her son, who didn't understand anything, and hesitated: "But doesn't it seem manly enough for a boy to be called by this nickname?"

Gu Jingxi said indifferently: "Mo Bai's son, whose nickname is Xiaoxiao, isn't he even less manly?"

Meng Jinyao: "... Can you compare it like this?" She said, thinking that it was the nickname I thought, or I couldn't waste it.

Gu Jingxi laughed softly: "That doesn't mean we should name him Goudan."

In this way, the nickname of Fourth Young Master Gu was decided without him knowing anything. Later facts proved that this nickname was indeed chosen correctly and matched him very well, but that is a story for another day. .

Meng Jinyao said: "Husband, I'm hungry."

After hearing this, Gu Jingxi immediately asked the wet nurse to come over and take the child down, and then ordered the maid to prepare meals.

After dinner, Meng Jinyao wanted to sleep again. It was already getting late. Gu Jingxi went to the clean room to wash up and then came back to sleep with her. She was still in confinement, but she was not as confinement as other couples. Sleeping in separate rooms during this period.

The next day.

The news that Gu Jingxi had a son in his old age has spread to all the ministers' families. Even the common people have learned about it. Everyone talks about it, and more and more people know about it.

Emperor Jingwen learned about this from his confidant eunuch, and he was also happy for his minister and said: "Get ready, I will write an imperial edict in my own hand."

The father-in-law had followed Emperor Jingwen for many years and had some understanding of Emperor Jingwen's actions. He hesitated and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to write an imperial edict to confer the title of Prince of Changxing to Prince Gu?"

Emperor Jingwen nodded and said: "This is Gu Aiqing's eldest son. He should be made the crown prince. Tomorrow is the Third Banquet of Baptism. Do you think this decree will be issued after the Third Banquet of Baptism, or during the Full Moon Banquet?"

After hearing this, the father-in-law remembered yesterday's memorial from Lin'an Marquis asking for the title of crown prince, and sighed in his heart that Changxing Marquis was really favored by the Holy Spirit. The princes of other families still had to report to the emperor and ask for the emperor's canonization. However, those from the Changxing Marquis Mansion did not need to be personally appointed by the Marquis of Changxing. Please seal it, and the emperor has already written the imperial edict in his own hand.

The father-in-law thought for a while and replied: "Your Majesty, I think it is better to issue the order on the day of the full moon banquet. There are many guests on that day. Although the Marquis of Changxing is not the kind of person who cares about face, he must like this dignity."

Emperor Jingwen nodded and agreed with the words of his confidant eunuch. When there were many guests, he issued an order to let everyone witness that there was a new heir apparent in the Changxing Marquis Mansion. On the day of the Third Banquet, he would just send someone to the Gu family to deliver a gift.

After a while, Emperor Jingwen asked again: "Has the name of Gu Aiqing's eldest son been decided now?"

The father-in-law replied: "I haven't heard of this slave yet, but if you want to write the imperial edict now, you can leave the name blank first, and then write it in when you know the name of Fourth Young Master Gu."

After Emperor Jingwen heard this, he immediately asked his confidant eunuch Bi Mo to serve him.

-

On the other side, Gu Jingxi had never thought that Emperor Jingwen was preparing to crown his son as the Crown Prince. He had not thought about the Crown Prince at the moment. He was still thinking about how to compete with his son for favor. His son had just been born, and A Yao's attention was no longer there. He never spoke without mentioning his son. He even heard A Yao calling her son's nickname last night when she was talking in her sleep, which made him even more depressed.

Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder and asked him with a smile in his voice: "Gu Yaoling, how does it feel to have a son in old age?"

Gu Jingxi slowly raised his head and saw Qi Yunwen looking at him with a smile. He shook his head slightly: "No, I just feel that he is quite capable at such a young age."

Qi Yunwen was confused: "He was only born yesterday, what ability can he have?"

Gu Jingxi replied with a resentful tone: "Don't pretend to be me, you've been here before, you know."

Hearing this, Qi Yunwen was thoughtful and soon understood. Then he burst into gloating laughter and pretended to comfort him: "Yao Ling, just be more open-minded. A woman must have different thoughts when she has a child." It will be with the husband, especially when the child is just born, the freshness is strong, but when the child grows up, especially when he reaches a naughty age, she will think of your goodness and throw her heart at you again. ”

Gu Jingxi asked: "What you are referring to is that when the child is naughty, the sister-in-law is reluctant to spank the child, so she turns around to deal with you as a father. After doing so, you feel guilty and try to coax you a few words? Are you jealous of her? When you had a tantrum, she embroidered a sachet for you and calmed you down, but then you turned around and found that she had made a set of clothes for the child, and the sachet was just made for you by the way?"

Qi Yunwen: "..."

How could you say such heart-wrenching words?

Soon, he shook his head repeatedly and said harshly: "You can't say that. I was quite naughty when I was a child. The child's personality followed mine. Isn't she angry? I asked her to clean me up and she relieved her anger. This is the same as flirting. It's like a scolding, it's harmless. As for embroidering a sachet to coax me, but making clothes for a child, isn't that what a child makes a fuss about? I'm not a child, so I don't need to be coaxed like this."

Gu Jingxi looked at him and wanted to say something sarcastic, but after thinking about it, according to Ayao's curiosity towards Wanwan, Mo Bai's present might be his future, so he had to speak more leisurely to avoid being ridiculed in the future. .
