It was getting late, so the couple left the house hand in hand.
Mrs. Xu didn't disturb the young couple's conversation until they came out, then she hugged Brother Xu and came forward with a smile: "Brother Xu, look, your father is back."
Brother Xu sucked his thumb, concentrating on his work and not looking at his biological father at all.
Shen You laughed and hugged Brother Xu over.
The weather is getting hotter. Brother Xu, who is wearing a blue dress, is wrapped in a soft and thin quilt, with only his head, face and two little hands exposed.
Brother Xu became restless for a while. His feet wearing tiny socks stuck out and moved around playfully.
Shen You reached out and scratched his son's little feet. Brother Xu quickly retracted his feet, making Mrs. Xu and Feng Shaojun laugh together.
Mrs. Xu smiled and said angrily: "The child is still young, so as a father, you should be gentler."
Shen You responded, and when Brother Xu stretched out his other foot, he scratched it again.
Feng Shaojun was so amused that he laughed and moved over to play with his son's little feet with Shen You.
Mrs. Xu was angry and funny, but she couldn't help but let them tease the child. It was rare for Shen You to come back, and the biological father would play with his son intimately, so just pretend he didn't see it!
Feng Shaojun smiled at Mrs. Xu and said, "Grandma, please invite your cousins over for dinner tonight!"
Mrs. Xu happily agreed.
It has only been three days since Cui Yuanhan's family of four moved next door, and they come here to have dinner together every night. Shen You is also back tonight, making it more lively with more people.
Mrs. Xu sent someone to deliver the message, but in just one stick of incense, Cui Yuanhan's family of four arrived.
In front of people who are familiar and close to him, Shen You's expression is much softer than usual, and he occasionally jokes: "My cousin is now working as an errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he is a new celebrity in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I will ask my cousin to take care of me in the future."
Cui Yuanhan straightened his chest proudly, showing a reserved and proud look on his face: "Easy to say, easy to say."
Feng Shaojun burst into laughter.
Mrs. Song also chuckled.
There are as many royal relatives as dogs in the capital, and civil servants and military generals are everywhere. Officials of the sixth and fifth grades are ashamed to mention it. Officials of the fourth grade and above can barely enter the ranks of high-ranking officials. Even though a close minister of the emperor like Shen You is just a Fourth grade, but he is a hot upstart, the kind of person who cannot be currying favor with others even if they want to.
The distance between Cui Yuanhan and Shen You is not very big, probably only a thousand miles apart!
However, think about a few years ago, the Cui family was just an ordinary wealthy businessman, and Cui Yuanhan was just a merchant son. When he met the magistrate and county magistrate, he had to offer generous gifts to please him.
Now, the Cui family has suddenly become an imperial businessman, Cui Yuanhan has gained a fifth-grade qualification, and has a lucrative job in the Ministry of Internal Affairs... thinking about it feels like a dream.
Mrs. Song sincerely attributed all this to Feng Shaojun...'s husband Shen You! Therefore, Mrs. Song was very happy to associate with Feng Shaojun and his wife.
Wow!
A loud cry suddenly sounded.
Everyone was startled and turned around to look. They saw two brothers, Cui Dalang and Cui Erlang, standing next to Brother Xu with innocent faces. Cui Erlang spoke awkwardly, but Cui Dalang was very articulate: "I touched Xu Biao. My brother’s face, I didn’t expect him to cry.”
Cui Yuanhan glared at Cui Dalang: "You don't know how to handle it. It hurts Brother Xu."
Ms. Song was also a little embarrassed and said hurriedly: "Dalang Erlang, you guys come over quickly and help your aunt."
Feng Shaojun laughed: "What's there to say about such a trivial matter? Cousin-in-law, please don't scare me."
However, Feng Shaojun felt very distressed when his son cried like this. After comforting Cui Dalang and Cui Erlang, Feng Shaojun turned to hug his son. Unexpectedly, Shen You moved a step faster and had already put Brother Xu into his arms. Already.
Shen You clumsily patted Brother Xu on the back and whispered, "Don't cry, daddy, give me a hug."
Shen You, who had always been cold and sharp, was no different from all the first-time fathers in the world. He held his son carefully, patted and coaxed him, his eyes and brows were full of care and affection.
It was as if he wanted to pour all the father's love that he had not received when he was young into his son.
Feng Shaojun felt a little soft and sour in his heart.
That's fine.
Let all the secrets fall into dust. Shen You can face everyone calmly and live resolutely and happily.
…
The Cao family was once the most prominent empress dowager clan in Da Qi, with luxuriant branches, numerous in-laws, and huge power. However, such a family was accidentally involved in a rebellion case. All the men were beheaded, and the clan members were convicted and exiled. , can never return to Beijing.
Overnight, the Cao family was completely wiped out from the prominent families in the capital.
While everyone clapped their hands and cheered, they could not help but feel a sense of awe and fear in their hearts.
Less than a year after the new emperor ascended the throne, he dealt with the Cao family with thunderous means. Everyone in the Prince of Qin's Palace and the Prince of Han's Palace was imprisoned. King Zhao was granted vassal status without going and was left in the capital.
This shows that Emperor Qing'an's methods were powerful.
Compared with Emperor Long'an's time, it is even worse.
Facing such a powerful emperor, none of the civil and military officials dared to neglect, and they all cheered up and went about their duties. The six yamen were quite on par with the Ministry of Punishment. Even King Zhao, who was the most lazy in the past, is not lazy now. I had some free time and got up early every day to work as an errand at the Ministry of Industry.
The atmosphere inside and outside the court was solemn.
Emperor Qing'an was quite satisfied with this.
There are three things a new official needs to do when he takes office. As a new emperor, when he sits on the dragon throne, he must show off his skills. In this way, he can quickly intimidate the ministers and control the court more quickly.
…
Time flies and two months have passed.
Brother Xu's 100-day banquet is just around the corner.
After Feng Shaojun discussed with the Da Feng family, they only invited a few of their closest relatives. Precisely because of Shen You's prominent official position, the Shen family kept a low profile to avoid causing trouble for Shen You.
The Feng family couldn't get around it, so they also sent out invitations.
The Zhou and Yao families are here, but Feng Shaoju is not here today.
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said to Feng Shaojun: "Shaoju is about to get engaged. It's not a good time to go out to meet people, so I didn't bring her here today."
Feng Shaojun asked knowingly: "Oh? Which family is the young master from?"
Zhou glanced at Yao and responded with a smile, "He is the fourth son of the Imperial Guard He Zhenfu family."
Mrs. He acted swiftly. On the full moon day of Brother Xu, she fell in love with Feng Shaoju and then asked the official media to go to Feng's house to propose marriage.
The Fourth Young Master He is a concubine. However, his mother died young and he was raised under the name of Mrs. He since he was a child. He is also considered a half legitimate son. Moreover, the Fourth Young Master He has outstanding martial arts talent and good skills. He won the Jin Yiwei Competition this year. He rose to prominence, entered the Jinyiwei barracks, and became the general bannerman.
Moreover, Fourth Young Master He is tall and handsome.
There was no reason for the Feng family to refuse such a good marriage. Feng Wei inquired about it and quickly agreed to the marriage.
Yao was feeling sulky and unhappy. When Feng Shaojun mentioned this, Yao's face grew long. This chapter has been completed!
