Chapter 1248 It is difficult to give birth to a son

As soon as Jiajing and Xu Jin returned to the western suburbs of the capital, they received the good news from the palace. Concubine De gave birth in advance and gave birth to a little princess. Xu Jin, Xia Yan and Zhai Luan and other close ministers congratulated Jiajing one after another, but the latter did not seem to be very emotional, and they had a bit of a forced smile. After rewarding a group of ministers (equivalent to sending wedding candies), they hurried into the city and rushed to the palace to visit Concubine De and his daughter.

As soon as Jiajing left, the civil and military ministers who accompanied him also dispersed. Xu Jin also brought Xue Bingxin and He Zhier's daughters back to Xu Mansion in Xiaofang.

He Zhier's riding skills were not good. He rode a carriage on the way from Datong to Beijing. Xue Bingxin thought it was too frustrating to ride a carriage and insisted on riding a horse. Although Xu Jin was worried about her four-month-old fetus, she couldn't resist it, so she had to ride a horse with her.

At this moment, Xu Jin and Xue Bingxin walked side by side, slowly heading towards Xiaofang along Xuanwumen Street, while He Zhier's carriage followed slowly behind.

At this time, Xue Bingxin suddenly asked in a low voice: "Husband, does the emperor prefer boys over girls?"

Xu Jinwei was stunned and said, "Why did Xin'er ask such a question?"

Xue Bingxin's beautiful light blue eyes turned her eyes to Xu Jin and said, "The emperor was obviously not very happy when he heard that Concubine De gave birth to a little princess. I don't believe you can't see it."

"Uh... no, I think the emperor is very happy. Didn't he immediately rushed into the palace to visit Concubine De?" Xu Jin pretended to be stupid and said in a daze.

Xue Bingxin snorted coldly: "Women are born with their lives. If men ignore them, they are really heartless. Even if they are the emperor, I will only look down on him."

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly. Xin'er was still so distinct from love and hate, and whispered: "Xin'er is careful. The emperor has always been affectionate and righteous. He is not that kind of person. It's just that he has not made any progress for more than six years of his wedding. I guess he wants a son too much."

"It's not something that women can decide to have a boy or a girl. It's a woman who can't give birth to a son?" Xue Bingxin said with a cold face.

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Of course, you can't blame women. I never mind having a boy or a girl with your husband. Even if Xin'er has a daughter, even if she has ten or eight, her husband will be very happy."

Xue Bingxin suddenly flew on her cheeks and spat lightly, "Go to you, do you want to treat others as if you are!"

Xu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and finally successfully changed the topic. Once a woman becomes serious about fighting for women's rights, her combat effectiveness will be quite scary. For example, the "feminist" who are active on the Internet in later generations often criticize and make people retreat.

But then again, although Xu Jin was a modern time traveler with "advanced thoughts", he could understand Jiajing's mood very well at this time.

As the saying goes, there are three kinds of unfilial things. No descendants are the greatest. The ancients attached great importance to the inheritance of incense, let alone the king of a country under the feudal hereditary system. However, Jiajing had been married for six years and still had no descendants. With the lessons of his cousin Zhu Houzhao, he was surprised that he was not in a hurry. Therefore, it was normal for him to find out that Concubine De gave birth to a little princess. However, he immediately went to the palace to visit Concubine De and his mother and daughter. It can be seen that he was not a cold person. The fact is the opposite. Jiajing values ​​feelings very much, and this is true for Xu Jin, Lu Bing, and Zhang Cong.

In fact, Xu Jin still sympathized with Jiajing in terms of offspring, because according to historical records, Jiajing ascended the throne at the age of fourteen and did not have his first son until he was twenty-six years old. As a result, he unfortunately died in less than two months.

It is now the sixth year of Jiajing. If history has not changed, he will have to wait another five or six years before he will have his first son. Moreover, this son will die after only two months of living. What's even more tragic is that when Jiajing's second son lived to be fourteen years old, he died shortly after being made the crown prince.

It is said that when Jiajing's first son died, a Taoist priest who was favored usually told him that the emperor was a real dragon and the prince was a hidden dragon. It was like a mountain that could not accommodate two tigers, so the two dragons could not meet each other, and once they met, there would be problems.

Jiajing believed the Taoist priests, so after the second son was born, he insisted on not seeing him until the second son was fourteen years old. Under the pressure of the empress dowager, Jiajing participated in the second son's reading ceremony and also appointed the second son as the prince. As a result, he was quite evil and soon the second son died.

Since then, Jiajing has become more convinced of the statement that "the two dragons do not meet each other". Later, Jiajing has two sons, one is King Yu Zhu Zai'an and the other is King Jing Zhu Zaizhen. However, in order to avoid the tragedy repeating, Jiajing did not see these two sons until his death, and did not enthrone the crown prince. He only made these two sons a prince, which also left a lot of room for operation for Xu Jie, the chief minister of the cabinet at that time.

Later, Xu Jie praised King Yu Zhu Zai'er as the throne in the name of Jiajing's will, which is a bit strange. This King Yu never became the prince for a day until he ascended the throne. He never saw his father Jiajing. It was incredible that his life situation was even more scripted than scripts.

Therefore, if history has not changed, Jiajing was very sad about birth and raising. He only had a son after more than ten years of marriage, but died in less than two months. The second son died when he was fourteen years old. He did not dare to see any sons after that. He was obviously close, but he could not hold him. He could not meet him until he died. It was really a "separation" and death separation, which was not ordinary cruel.

Until today, Xu Jin, a time traveler, has undoubtedly changed the historical trajectory of the Ming Dynasty, and has revitalized a huge empire that is on the decline. However, it is still unknown how much change the fate of Jiajing's personal fate has changed, and maybe he will follow the original historical trajectory.

Regarding the raising of a son, even Xu Jin was helpless. He could only say that this is fate and it was beyond human ability!

About half an hour later, Xu Jin and his party finally entered the hourly yard. Xu Shou, a servant who had been waiting at the gate, immediately ran towards the Xu Mansion, shouting while running: "The master and the fourth wife are back home! The master and the fourth wife are back home!"

At this moment, the front yard of the Xu Mansion was already crowded with people. Xie Xiaowan, Fei Ruyi and Fei Jixiang were leading a group of servants and servants to look forward to it.

Outside the mansion, the housekeeper Dabao was leading more than a dozen young and strong servants to prepare for the battle. Suddenly, a sharp-eyed servant shouted: "Here you come!"

The guy Dabao looked closely and immediately recognized Zhao Datou, the captain of the personal soldiers who were leading the way in front of him. He immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Master, come back home, click the cannon!"
