"Aung, I can't bear you!"
Feng Yanting felt a little repellent about going to Hou's house.
He didn't know how to face Pingnan Hou and Mrs. Zhang.
Although he Tiantian said that "the matter of changing children still needs detailed investigation", Feng Yanting knew that he was probably the blood of Hou's house.
Because only in this way can he explain some absurd things in the past.
For example, when she was young, Mrs. Zhang loved herself more. Even the eldest Miss Wei yuanniang wanted to let her know when she met him.
For another example, in recent years, Mrs. Zhang has always disciplined him by "taking the place of others". If she doesn't understand it, she can do the family law.
It's not that Mrs. Zhang really likes a servant's child or meddling, but because he Feng Yanting is Mrs. Zhang's own flesh and blood.
But... Feng Yanting was very uncomfortable and even resented Mrs. Zhang.
Fool!
What a fucking fool!
Just because he was afraid that his son would be sent to the capital as a proton, he secretly discussed with his confidant and secretly wrapped up the blood of the Hou house.
Does she know that this is the crime of bullying the king? Once exposed in the future, will it affect the whole Marquis house?
Also, raising the eldest son of the marquis in the old servant's house is good for him?
Separated from their real parents, they could not accept the elite education belonging to the heirs of the marquis.
Even if there is a way (looking for scapegoats) to save the Hou house from trouble and return the children to you in the future, can it really be safe and all things are well?!
Not to mention anything else, Pingnan Hou and Feng Yanting have little feelings between their direct father and son, which is enough to affect his position in the Hou house and his future.
Feng Yanting is not making random assumptions, but that things have happened.
For example, at this moment, Feng Yanting's thoughts are very confused when his adoptive mother, who is reluctant to part with her farewell, sits in the carriage back to the Marquis house.
Mrs. Zhang is better. Whether she likes it or dislikes it, she has been seeing each other all these years.
And Feng Yanting bet that Mrs. Zhang would regard him as her own son. Because he is Mrs. Zhang's only hope and dependence.
But what about Pingnan Hou?
Not to mention that Pingnan Hou is strange to Feng Yanting, Feng Yanting himself is also very strange to Pingnan Hou.
From small to large, Feng Yanting had little time to spend alone with Pingnan Hou.
Mrs. Zhang often boasted in his ear, saying how shrewd and powerful Duke Pingnan was and how loyal and brave he was.
Mammy Zhao also helped to make up for it and praised Pingnan Hou's house for being rich and noble for generations. All the men in the Hou's house are good sons who protect their homes and defend their country.
Feng Yanting was fascinated, but he just regarded Pingnan Hou as a legendary figure.
But now, someone told him that the great man was no one else, just his biological father.
With a glorious history of more than 100 years and power and wealth, Feng Yanting is the most legitimate successor of Pingnan Marquis!
This... Is so unreal!
In the most unreliable dreams Feng Yanting has ever had, there is no such delusion.
However, Feng Yanting is a man in the end. He is tough and intelligent.
After hearing such a "truth", after a brief panic and loss of measures, he soon stabilized his mind and was able to adapt to the situation.
However, the more he accepted his identity and speculated the truth of that year, the more he wanted to curse his mother!
Mother Zhao, a stupid but clever biological mother and a loyal but selfish and cold mother, pushed him into an embarrassing situation on the grounds of "protection".
When I was in the small broken yard of the Feng family, one frost fell and three sons and daughters of concubines, which made the house restless.
In order to compete for resources, Feng Yanting played tricks with those people.
What about Pingnan Marquis?
It is a hundred times more noble than the Feng family and a thousand times more complex than the Feng family.
The interests and struggles involved are unimaginable for people like Feng Yanting who came from civilians and didn't live in powerful families.
In the past, Feng Yanting thought it had nothing to do with Pingnan Hou, but after Pingnan Hou returned to Beijing, he still heard a lot of rumors about him.
One of the most striking points for Feng Yanting is that during his disappearance, Pingnan Hou married another wife and gave birth to two sons.
Although now the barbarian woman has demoted herself to a concubine, her two sons have become concubines.
However, Feng Yanting bet that in Pingnan Hou's mind, the two sons who got along since childhood are definitely more important than his nominal "legitimate eldest son".
In addition, from the barbarian woman's understanding of "concession", we can see that this man is much smarter than Mrs. Zhang.
In the deep courtyard of Hou's house, there is a stupid and wrong mistress and a smart concubine who makes the male master love and feel guilty
Tut Tut, Feng Yanting is not old, but because he wanders around the market all year round, he is forced too early by Mrs. Zhang. He can already imagine how chaotic and difficult the future Hou house will be for Feng Yanting.
And even his eldest son, Feng Yanting, may not be able to inherit the Marquis house.
In addition, although Pingnan Hou's house passed the "false accusation" crisis of that year, as long as Pingnan Hou continues to command the army, the Hou's house will still be overturned.
Unless Pingnan Hou really raises the rebellion.
But the question is, is rebellion so easy?
Feng Yanting did not receive the elite education of the heirs of the Marquis, but he was also familiar with history.
Throughout history, those cases that have succeeded in rebellion and can change dynasties are successful because the time is ripe——
Timing (natural disasters, confused monarchs and treacherous officials), geographical advantages (strong troops and strong horses), and human harmony (someone helps).
Look at the current great Zhou Dynasty. Today's sage Chengtai is really not a Ming monarch, but he is not a real tyrant.
Under his rule, the people were not very rich, but most of them could eat and wear warm clothes.
Since ancient times, these people at the bottom are the most satisfied. As long as they don't get hungry, they can live in peace.
No officials forced the people to rebel and no strong enemy invaded. Even if Pingnan Hou had 200000 elite soldiers, he did not dare to pull the flag to rebel easily.
Unable to rebel and unwilling to give up military power, Feng Yanting felt that the future of Pingnan Marquis house was worrying.
In the past, Feng Yanting was just a bystander and gossip at will.
But now, he has become the eldest son of the Hou house and the proper heir. Then the rise and fall of the Hou house plays a vital role with him.
Feng Yanting was only five years old when Hou's family members were escorted to Beijing, but he already had a memory.
A noble man who once lived in dignity became a prisoner overnight.
Whether it was an old lady or a baby still in infancy, they were driven away by officers and soldiers and struggled under the scorching sun and rainstorm.
There is also the picture of Wei yuanniang being whipped away by a whip, which is deeply engraved in Feng Yanting's memory.
"..." Feng Yanting clenched his fist. He must not let himself suffer all kinds of hardships because of the Hou house like Wei yuanniang!
Feng Yanting's idea seems a little selfish, which is different from the family concept that family interests are above all else in this era.
However, there was no way. When Feng Yanting was 13 years old, he didn't live in Hou's house for a day.
He had no feelings, nor received family education, so he didn't have much sense of identity and belonging to Pingnan Hou house!
This situation will probably be expected by many old foxes and used.
Of course, these are later words.
After shaking in the carriage for half an hour, Feng Yanting finally came to Pingnan Hou's house.
"... good boy, you, you have been wronged!"
Seeing Feng Yanting, who is young but has shown his excellent temperament, Pingnan Hou is really filled with emotion.
The poor child spread a stupid mother-in-law. She was clearly the eldest son of the Marquis, but she grew up in the slave's house.
Fortunately, the children of the Wei family are born with precious seeds. Even if they grow up in the mud, they can become such a good young man with good temperament and outstanding ability.
Although Feng Yanting was bent on studying and taking the imperial examination, it was not consistent with their family inheritance of always practicing martial arts in Pingnan marquis.
However, Pingnan Hou was very happy to see such a tall and straight young boy like a green pine version, and his body was not as weak as a sour literati.
Looking at nothing else, Feng Yanting has the unique thick eyebrows and big eyes of the Wei family. Pingnan Hou has an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
"..." Feng Yanting felt the kindness and closeness in Pingnan Hou's eyes.
In fact, as early as on the road, he had sorted out his thoughts and decided on the road he should take after returning to the Marquis house.
Therefore, seeing Pingnan Hou, Feng Yanting did not hide and deliberately showed a complex look——
There is the excitement of seeing blood relatives, and the consternation of hearing the truth at first;
There are children's admiration for their loved ones and their reluctance to give up their adoptive parents.
Feng Yanting, the male master, perfectly mastered the complexity and level of emotion, mixed many emotions, and progressed layer by layer
Sure enough, Pingnan Hou was very satisfied with Feng Yanting's performance.
"I know that the Feng family has been very kind to you over the years, especially the Feng family's wife, who is very sincere to you!"
"It's reasonable that you don't want her. In the future, you can still have contacts with the Feng family. The Feng family's mother -"
Pingnan Hou hasn't forgotten the unbridled remarks of "Gu xiuniang" at the gate of Jingzhao house in the morning.
Not to forget, this woman seems to want to haggle with Mrs. Zhang.
Hum, a woman with a small family, but after helping the Hou family, she really thinks she is the benefactor of the Hou family. Can she ignore her identity and abandon her dignity and inferiority?
Leaving aside others, Feng Yanting alone, Pingnan Hou did not believe that Gu xiuniang really had no feelings for the children she raised.
And Feng Zhongliang. No matter how brave Gu xiuniang is, she is just a housewife.
Feng Zhongliang is close to Hou's house. He doesn't agree with Gu xiuniang's nonsense, so Gu xiuniang will——
Pingnan Hou wanted to tell Feng Yanting that he could continue to be close to Gu xiuniang in the future.
As a result, I heard Feng Yanting say something depressed, "my aunt, she and her father are separated!"
Pingnan Hou was stunned.
Immediately, he sneered in his heart: ridiculous. He thought that if he left, he would not be controlled by the Hou house if he was not the Feng's wife?!
Even if "Gu xiuniang" coaxed Feng Zhongliang to take her daughter away at the moment, the Hou house also had a way to let Feng Zhongliang run again to compete with her for her daughter.
Needless to say, Hou's house is a noble man. As long as Pingnan Hou looks reluctant to give up his adopted daughter and says that he wants to recognize Wei yuanniang as an adopted daughter, both Wei yuanniang himself and public opinion will tend to the side of Hou's house.
After all, Hou's house is rich and noble. Everyone knows that staying in Hou's house is really good to Wei yuanniang.
That is, Wei yuanniang is now in Qingyun temple. Otherwise, when Pingnan Hou took Feng Yanting back, he ordered someone to take Wei yuanniang back.
However, even if Wei yuanniang is in Qingyun temple, Pingnan hou can't intervene in her affairs for the time being.
But Wei yuanniang can't stay in Qingyun Temple all her life. As long as she goes down the mountain and returns to the secular world, Pingnan Hou, the "adoptive father", will have a way to arrange Wei yuanniang's future.
"Gu Xiunian" doesn't dare to mess with her daughter.
After Pingnan Hou returned to Hou's house, the first thing was to interrogate Mrs. Zhang.
In the face of Pingnan Hou's stern eyes and cold face, Mrs. Zhang dared not hide the slightest bit, and told her and mammy Zhao's plans in detail!
Among them, Gu xiuniang wanted to change her son. When she mentioned these, she couldn't help but take some pride with her tone.
Proud of what?
Proud of being able to "follow the plan"?
Pingnan Hou:... I don't want to scold Mrs. Zhang as a fool anymore.
This is the truth. Scolding several times can't change it.
Even if Gu xiuniang is wrong, but over the years, people have worked hard and made a better reputation than the loyal servant Zhao mammy!
You say they value boys over girls?
But people have a bowl of water for their sons and daughters.
Even in acting, Gu xiuniang is better than Mrs. Zhang!
Thinking of camouflage, Pingnan Hou was full of Qi.
Mrs. Zhang, who knows a little bit of restraint, is better to Wei yuanniang. Their Marquis house will not be so passive now!
However, through interrogation, Pingnan Hou still got a conclusion that he was relatively comforted:
Although Mrs. Zhang made a fool, I don't know whether Mrs. Zhang was rare to be smart, or Mrs. Zhang trusted mammy Zhao too much.
Mrs. Zhang was not involved in the whole process and all the details during the change.
The person in full charge is always mother Zhao.
The only evidence and witnesses that can point to is mother Zhao!
Therefore, Mrs. Zhang is "innocent". The only thing she will be criticized is that she doesn't know people clearly and the housekeeper is not strict, which makes Diao Nu take advantage of the loophole!
The big black pot of changing children was firmly buckled on mammy Zhao's head. Even if she repented and wanted to change her mouth, she could not prove her innocence.
"What a blessing in misfortune! Although some people will doubt it, there is no clear evidence!"
Pingnan Hou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still wanted to prevent "Gu xiuniang" from making trouble. After all, they had a good reputation, and Mrs. Zhang was really mean to Wei yuanniang.
Fortunately, the Marquis house is noble, and "Gu xiuniang" is just a common people. The gap between people and officials, respect and sorrow is not embroidered. It can be smoothed by making friends with a few noble people.
I really don't know where "Gu xiuniang" came from. She dared to threaten him to Pingnan Hou.
However, three days later, Pingnan Hou knew the reason——
"What? Yuan Niang made great contributions to offering high-yield and improved seeds, and was named Princess Yonghe by the sage?!"
