"How long do you plan to sleep in my bed?" Wang Wanrou asked coldly.
"Ahem, I've slept for too long and I have a headache." Cheng Jinyang pressed his temples to hide his guilty expression.
In the dream, he was in the ruins of Songjiang, and he was with Ashu's wife again. He couldn't help himself, but he was woken up at the last moment.
I don’t know if Miss Wang saw the clues.
After dinner at the Wang family, Cheng Jinyang took Miss Wang home.
I picked up other people by the way and finally returned to the Wuchang Admiral's Mansion. It was about 9pm.
Everyone happily pushed Lu Qingyun into the room and watched a movie in the living room.
Yunyun entered the room and immediately found Cheng Jinyang and said anxiously:
"Jinyang, I'm pregnant!"
Cheng Jinyang:?
No, we are a legal couple, and getting pregnant is a good thing! Don’t make it sound like an underage couple suddenly discovered a dark knot in their baby, okay?
"It's a boy." Lu Qingyun added again.
Cheng Jinyang exclaimed, that’s what it meant.
The real eldest son is actually his and Murong Shu's child Cheng Weixin, but Ashu's identity as a demon is destined to be impossible to be recognized by the human empire.
Therefore, in the sense of etiquette and law, the son in Yun Yun's belly is Cheng Jinyang's "eldest son" who can be recognized by the outside world.
Considering that he will not establish a legal wife, which means that there is no "eldest son", the eldest son can get the greatest inheritance rights...
"That's it." So he put on a serious attitude and comforted Lu Qing, saying, "You don't have to worry so much. Let's talk about it after the child comes down."
"Jinyang." Yunyun immediately burst into tears.
However, she also knew that what she was worried about and what her husband was worried about were probably not the same thing at all, so she could only calm down for a while, and then said again:
"Jinyang, when I went home today, my father asked me about my heir in a roundabout way."
"Heir?" Cheng Jinyang was stunned for a moment before he remembered that there seemed to be a direct line succession issue going on in Yun Yun's family.
The reason is that when the warship of Wang Chuzhong was attacked, Yunyun's grandfather, as the patriarch, was paralyzed in the air crash.
Therefore, all four sons are eyeing the position of heir to the patriarch.
Yunyun's father ranked fourth and was not very talented, so he planned to use his son-in-law's relationship to help him gain power in the family.
To be fair, Cheng Jinyang was naturally unwilling to get involved in the messy affairs within the Lu family.
The reason is simple: as soon as he intervenes, he sets a precedent for an emperor to interfere in the internal affairs of aristocratic families, which will inevitably arouse the fear of other aristocratic families.
Before he aspires to become the supreme king, Cheng Jinyang still needs help from the nobles, so he doesn't want the relationship to get too tense...
"Speaking of which, your grandfather is like that. Is it difficult to appoint an heir?" Cheng Jinyang chuckled and said, "Look at Sister Xiaopei's family, after the patriarch fell into coma, he immediately appointed her nephew to take over, without causing any disturbance at all."
"We are in a different situation from the Zheng family." Lu Qingyun said distressedly, "In Sister Xiaopei's family, her nephew is far more talented than his peers. In addition, he has been appointed as the heir for many years, so he can take over the power smoothly regardless of his qualifications or prestige.
, no one else can compete with him."
"In our family, my father and uncle are not very qualified, so my grandfather has never made up his mind. He is soft-hearted and prone to nostalgia. If anyone feels wronged and complains to him, he will often change his mind.
…”
Cheng Jinyang frowned when he heard this, thinking of his grandfather Cheng Benhe for no reason.
When the old man was still alive, he seemed to have nothing to do with the world. He even took the initiative to retire and live in the hospital, refusing to get involved in family affairs anymore.
In fact, his decisiveness is astonishing. Because of his mother's affairs, he overcame everyone's opinions and got rid of his father, who was the most talented, and let his uncle take over.
After he appeared, he forced himself to return to the family and established himself as the heir to the clan leader, forcing his uncle to separate the clan and establish a new family.
In contrast, Yunyun's grandfather was obviously not so decisive.
"How about this." Cheng Jinyang started to come up with random ideas, "It's not a problem for your grandfather to remain paralyzed like this. How about just going for an operation to repair his lower body? Let him continue to be the leader of the clan to prevent his sons from getting sick.
I have some thoughts."
"If mechanical parts are implanted, grandpa's blood concentration will go backwards." Lu Qingyun shook his head and said, "Our ability to maintain the status of the fifth-surname family depends entirely on grandpa, a third-grade strongman. He would rather sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life than do this.
For surgery..."
As she was talking, she suddenly couldn't speak anymore.
Cheng Jinyang also looked at her suspiciously.
"Wait a minute?" Lu Qingyun said suddenly, "I'm already at the second level, right?"
"That's right!" Cheng Jinyang also echoed, "It doesn't matter whether your grandfather is a third-grade or not. It doesn't matter for a long time! There are only nine third-grades on the human side now, aren't we?"
"Well, aren't they still fighting for the position of clan leader? Tell these people to stop fighting. This clan leader... I will be the one to be the clan leader!"
"Me? I can't do it!" Lu Qingyun quickly refused, "I'm already married to you, so I'm no longer part of the Lu family! How can I be the leader of this clan?"
"Well, what my father means is that if our child awakens the 'Restraining Pulse' ability and is not bad in talent, he can be appointed as the next clan leader in advance. Then he will use the name of his grandfather to help our child grow up.
Great Qian, temporarily take over the position of clan leader..."
"Isn't this the trick of listening to politics behind the curtain?" Cheng Jinyang couldn't laugh or cry, "Besides, my wife is not a member of the Lu family, so why does my son become a member of the Lu family?"
"It's like this. It's not that a woman can't be a clan leader, but her husband-in-law must also be from the same clan, so as not to be affected by other clans behind her husband-in-law when making decisions about the family's interests..." Lu Qingyun explained patiently.
Cheng Jinyang was speechless, and after a while he said:
"He is very good at calculation... But in this case, the outsiders will definitely think that your father and I have colluded. Is it him who is taking charge of the so-called regent, or am I taking charge of it? Not to mention that it is not clear from outside, it is Lu
There will definitely be protests within the clan."
"That's for sure." Lu Qingyun sat on the bed and sighed for a while.
Cheng Jinyang put his arms around her shoulders and hugged her for a long time, finally telling Yunyun not to worry about this matter for the time being, as it was more important to take care of the baby.
Since she was pregnant, it was of course inconvenient to do business, so Yun Yun snuggled into his arms, and the two of them lay on the bed and talked for a long time.
Cheng Jinyang said that when we first met, you even criticized me several times because of your brother.
Lu Qingyun then hit him with her fist and asked him who was fighting whom? Please tell me clearly who is fighting whom!
The beating made Cheng Jinyang feel uncomfortable all over, and he had to resort to gagging, which made him unable to breathe for a long time.
