Chapter 1213 Worry
After the New Year, the second and third eldest children came back. Chu Yixuan and Chu Yijie were very happy to see their two uncles whom they had not seen for a long time. They even disappeared without a trace before the tasks assigned to them by Chu Jingqi were completed.
Xia Zihan sat on the kang and flipped through the account books. When he was tired, he rubbed his eyes and looked out the window. He happened to see two chubby little bodies in clothes. In the blink of an eye, they ran out of the Moon Gate, Nuanyu and a group of maids. The boys were chasing after him hurriedly.
Xia Zihan rubbed his temples and said to Chu Jingqi with a headache, "Aqi, take care of your son. Don't hang out with the third child as soon as he comes back. The third child always has no idea. When the time comes, give your son to him." The belt is broken.”
She really didn't hate the third child, but she was worried that the third child would bring her son down.
Xia Zihan is not worried about the eldest son Chu Yixuan. That boy has completely inherited Chu Jingqi's cold temperament. Even the third child, who is like a monkey, can't mislead him.
Xia Zihan is only worried about her youngest son. His temperament has been a little out of control recently. She is worried that if his youngest son has been with the third child for a long time, he will become as out of tune as the third child.
Chu Jingqi was also looking at the accounts of the past few months in the military camp. He was looking at it carefully. When he heard his wife's voice, he moved his eyes away from the account books and fell on her face. He raised his hand and rubbed her head and said, "Are you worried?" What, Jier is not afraid even if he is as incompetent as the third child. There has never been a male heir in the Chu family who is incompetent. Even if he is a monkey, he is still a golden monkey who can change seventy-two times."
"What monkeys? Several boys from Qinghui's family turned into monkeys. You don't want Jie'er to turn into a monkey," Xia Zihan became anxious after seeing Chu Jingqi's disapproving expression. Secretly saving money, he said that his third uncle said that it would take a lot of money to marry a wife when he grows up, so he should be like his third uncle and save money since he was a child. You said this kid..."
"Pfft..."
Not only was Chu Jingqi not angry, she was quite happy, "Yes, that boy has known to lighten the burden on his parents since he was a child. Ayu, you don't have to prepare the betrothal gifts for their wives in the future, let them prepare it themselves."
"What are you talking about?" Seeing that Chu Jingqi was also out of tune, Xia Zihan's face was filled with black lines and he said angrily, "I won't tell you anymore."
Xia Zihan put down her sewing and moved to get off the bed. When Chu Jingqi saw her, he quickly stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms, hugged her, rubbed her face with his chin, and said in a low voice, "Are you angry? Just because of this. Are you angry?”
"Ayu, as long as our Chu family's children have good genes, they will mature earlier than children from other families. My grandfather, my father, and I, the second and third children, are all precocious, and Xuan'er and Jie'er are also precocious. Other children mature much earlier, as you can see, so Xuan'er and Don't worry about Jie'er going to play with the third child. If Jier's nature is like that, even if the third child doesn't mislead him, he will still become crooked in the end. But don't worry, even if he is crooked, he will As a male heir of the Chu family, he must be a great person.”
"How can you become a great person if you are already crooked?" Xia Zihan nestled in his arms, pouting and worried.
"Yes, if you say you can to your husband, you will definitely be able to do it." Chu Jingqi assured her, and then said, "Our family's Xuan'er has been assigned to the eldest princess. If he retains the princess in the future, he will not be able to serve as an official in the court. Then the Chu family The burden will fall on the heads of Jier and the second and third sons.”
"The second brother and I have the same temperament, cold and cold, and easily offend others. In fact, we are not suitable for the court. We are only suitable for leading troops in war. Therefore, the emperor never arranges for me to enter the court and participate in government affairs." He is a general. , Logically speaking, as a second-grade military officer, he should go to the morning court and participate in the government affairs. However, the emperor either arranged for him to manage the military camp or arranged for him to hang out in the Yinlin Guards. He was never allowed to participate in the government affairs and chatted with a group of old men. .
Because the emperor knows that he will be bored, bored, disgusted with the court, unwilling to deal with others, intrigues and vying for power.
"Because I have many military exploits, the Chu family's army will be handed over to me and the second child in the future. We hold the military power in our hands, but it is best not to participate in the court disputes, so neither the second child nor I will step into it." The third child took over the first floor of the world and was not suitable to enter the court, so Jie'er was the only one left."
Chu Jingqi's voice was as gentle as water, and she told her daughter-in-law one by one about the future arrangements of the Chu family, and then said, "Our Chu family has so much military power, there must always be someone who can deal with others in the court to prevent anyone from harming the Chu family." People take the place of the Chu family Speaking of which, the second child and I are not suitable for participating in government affairs because our temperaments are majestic and insufficient. Dad is suitable, but one day dad will grow old. When dad gets old and retires, there will always be someone in the Chu family to take over. "
"If Jie'er's temperament remains unchanged, just like mine, then he is not suitable to enter the court. Therefore, I hope Jie'er can learn a little bit of the cleverness and changeability of the third child. If he really can't learn it, then in the future Let Jie'er take over the No. 1 building in the world, and let the third child go to the court to deal with the Chu family."
This was an arrangement that Chu Xuanyu and he discussed together.
Now, although the emperor trusts their father and son very much, the emperor will also get old one day. If the emperor gets old and the prince succeeds to the throne, then who can guarantee that the next generation of emperors will trust the people of the Chu family as always?
Who can guarantee that the next generation of emperors, or the next generation of emperors, will also allow the Chu family to hold so much military power?
The Chu family holds half of the military power of Dasheng Kingdom, and I am afraid that any emperor will be worried about it, as if it is a fish in the throat.
If you encounter a narrow-minded emperor, then any provocative sentence or two from a minister may kill the Chu family.
Therefore, what the Chu family will want twenty years later is not a general who is good at leading troops in battles and managing military camps, but a capable minister who is good at dealing with officials and the emperor in the court.
Others may not be able to see the nature of the third child, but Chu Xuanyu and Chu Jingqi, who are like human beings, have already seen it. He is smart enough, sinister enough, evil enough, fickle enough, and the best at hiding himself. Such a person, He was qualified enough for this task, but he was booked in advance by Shui Furong, so Chu Xuanyu and Chu Jingqi had to stare at the four-year-old Chu Yijie.
"Ayu, as the male heir of the Chu family, has had to bear some responsibilities to protect the Chu family since he was born. As soon as Jie'er, Xuan'er and the others were born, they were destined to step into the quagmire of the court for the Chu family. This It’s their life, it’s what they must bear.”
Chu Jingqi patted her daughter-in-law's back gently, trying her best to let her know as much about the Chu family as possible, and told her, "Grandpa, dad, and I will raise Jie'er well and will not raise Jie'er to death." Go.”
