Chapter 651: Settling for the Next Best Thing

After sighing, he quickly displayed his fox characteristics and began to think about the causes and consequences of the matter.

"Yao Yao." He frowned and said, with a thoughtful expression on his face, "Our affairs only made progress after the Lord returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty last year. Your father should not have the ability to predict the future -"

"I have also asked my mother and concubine about this." Xuanyuan Yao said in a brisk tone, "Before Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne, I went to the imperial capital with my father to pay homage to the new emperor. After that, my father returned to Huainan alone, and I was left in the imperial capital by the lord. . At that time, my father guessed that it was more likely that I would continue to stay in the imperial capital. In order to train a general for the Huainan Palace to guard the border, my father and my mother decided to have another one after discussion, so my brother was born. "

Xie Jin was silent for a moment, with a strange expression on his face: "Your father is probably not sure that this baby will be a son after birth."

Xuanyuan Yao raised his eyebrows: "My father is very open-minded and did not say that he must be a son. Even if the son is useless, the daughter can also guard the border. Don't you think Chu Hongyi is still a heroine?"

After a pause, "It's just that my sister has been spoiled since she was a child, is unruly and willful, and can't bear hardships. Moreover, she is already sixteen years old, and at the age of leaving the court, it is too late to train her, so she can only create a new child."

Regardless of whether the child is male or female, the father intends to train the child according to the standards of a military commander.

Xie Jin understood what he meant and hummed softly: "So King Huainan has no idea of ​​passing military power to men rather than women."

"That's not really true." Xuanyuan Yao frowned and shook his head, "I can only say that the next best thing is to have children. Under the premise of having children, boys must be able to endure hardships, endure wear and tear, and have more physical strength. Advantages. Although Chu Hongyi is powerful, how many women in the world can be as powerful as Chu Hongyi? "

Moreover, sons are the ones who inherit the incense. No matter how enlightened a father is, he would not first think of letting his daughter inherit the family business and pass on the incense - except in special circumstances.

For example, Her Majesty the Queen today.

Xie Jin nodded: "Yao Yao is right."

Regardless of whether he settles for the next best thing or not, he feels that King Huainan is definitely an enlightened father. If he can accept that he and Yaoyao are together, he will be even more enlightened.

As for this new child, whether it was a mistake or an unexpected surprise, no matter what the reason was that gave him the opportunity to come into this world, Xie Jin was truly happy for it.

Although the existence of this child is not the reason for Xuanyuan Yao to be upright and deviant, nor is it the confidence for him to choose to cut off his sleeves, but it can at least alleviate Xuanyuan Yao's guilt for not being able to continue his bloodline, and he can inherit the responsibility and family business of the Huainan Palace. There will be successors at the border gate, so that the King of Huainan will not have any regrets.

That's enough.

"If there are only two people, my sister and I, I will definitely inherit the Huainan Prince's family business and military power in the future. It is impossible for my father to consider my sister." Xuanyuan Yao said, frowning slightly, "But the situation is different now, even if we leave you and the Leaving aside my affairs, my father has already thought that I might stay with the Lord as a servant in the future, so he has to consider the military power of the Huainan Palace. It is too late to start training from my sister, and it is best to have another one. Fortunately, my father, the Queen, and my concubine are still young. If it takes a few years, even if they want to have children, it will be impossible. "

After hearing this, Xie Jin nodded in agreement, but he still couldn't help but sigh in his heart, King Huainan was really foresighted.

Xuanyuan Yao thought for a while: "Ajin, I have an idea."

Xie Jin raised his eyes: "What?"

"I want to give up the position of Crown Prince to my younger brother." Xuanyuan Yao's expression was slightly restrained, and his expression was more serious than ever before, "My younger brother has inherited the blood and hope of the Huainan Palace and shouldered the important task of guarding the border. It is natural that he should enjoy the title and title of Crown Prince. Honor.”

Xie Jin was silent for a moment: "I respect any decision you make, but you should discuss this matter with your father. I have no right to make decisions for you."

He understood Yao Yao's thoughts. If he could not pass on the incense and responsibility of the Huainan Palace, he should not keep and enjoy the title and honor of the Crown Prince. It was natural for him to give it to his younger brother.

But the decision-making power on this matter does not lie with other people, but with King Huainan.

And it also requires the consent of Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince Regent.

Xuanyuan Yao has already thought of a hundred ways to be kind to his brother, and he doesn't mind putting his plans into words: "I must be nice to my brother."

Xie Jin hummed: "Let's treat him well together."

This newly born little prince is a blessing to both of them and must be loved by them wholeheartedly.

The two looked at each other for a while and suddenly laughed.

"There's one more thing." Xuanyuan Yao raised his eyebrows lightly, "I think my father will not do anything to us again."

"How to say?"

"Although you blocked the punishment for me, you should know that we are now in the Huainan Palace, on my father's territory. All the soldiers in the palace only obey the orders of my father." Xuanyuan Yao raised his eyebrows, " Your identity as the ninth master of the Xie family has no effect here. If my father really wants to take action, he can just ask a few guards to pull you away and beat his son into a meat pie. "

The atmosphere was quite serious originally, but the word "meat pie" made Xie Jin laugh out loud instantly, "Yao Yao."

Xuanyuan Yao frowned: "Why are you laughing?"

"I was wondering what Yaoyao would look like after turning into a piece of meat pie?" Xie Jin pretended to think, "Yaoyao is the heir apparent, so why not call him persimmon cake."

Xuanyuan Yao had a bad expression.

"Yaoyao is right." Xie Jin nodded slowly, "No matter how powerful my martial arts are, I will never dare to fight with your father. If he really wants to beat you, he only needs to order the guards to pull me away. If two people are not enough, then four people will do it. If four people are not enough, then eight people will do it. Even if I beat you into a dried persimmon, I can only watch helplessly-"

"Xie Jin." Xuanyuan Yao's voice was a little more dangerous, "Do you want to be beaten again?"

"Yaoyao." Xie Jin lay on the pillow, his voice soft, as if he was acting coquettish, "I am injured now."

Xuanyuan Yao's heart twisted, and he stopped talking immediately.

Getting up to check his injuries, Xuanyuan Yao sat on the edge of the bed and gently massaged Xie Jin's shoulders and neck: "I guess someone should have written a letter in advance and told my father about the two of us."

Xie Jin hummed: "Who do you think it is?"

"My Lord."

Xie Jin said: "Maybe my father."

Xuanyuan Yao frowned: "If it was Prime Minister Xie, what would he say?"

"I don't know."

Maybe he would propose marriage directly?

But even if the marriage proposal is true, it cannot be said so, lest Yaoyao start to assert his authority as a husband again.

Xie Jin was injured in his buttocks, and there was nothing wrong with his shoulders and neck, but for the time being he could only lie still, and it would not be comfortable if he lay still for a long time.

Yaoyao massaged him carefully, and massaged all the muscles and bones of his body except his buttocks, as a reward for his heroic protection of his husband at a critical moment: "Ajin performed really well today, and he looks particularly righteous."

Righteous?

Xie Jin's mouth twitched, what did he say?

Friends protecting each other is called righteousness, okay? Yaoyao always seems to be confused about relationships.

But Xie Jin didn't dwell on this, enjoying the little leopard's personal service, and closed his eyes and said: "Protecting you is what I should do."

Xuanyuan Yao paused slightly, staring at the back of his head silently: "I think it should be me who protects you."

Xie Jin sighed in his heart and could only say: "We protect each other."

Protect each other?

Xuanyuan Yao pondered for a moment and felt that it seemed right, so he nodded: "Well, protect each other."

Author has something to say:

Rebirth is a cool story. No matter whether it is the male or female protagonist or the supporting role, the story is fake and has nothing to do with reality. Whether from an ancient or modern perspective, rebirth itself is impossible to happen, so there is no need to bring it into reality. I wrote it for fun, and you are happy to read it. You can just fantasize about it. In reality, I am a person who doesn't even follow dramas. I like to read Danmei books and fantasize about it myself, but I don't watch Danmei TV dramas. I don't follow celebrities, and it is even more impossible to bring it into the modern world, so there is no need to talk about the modern world.
