Chapter 863 The capital is in turmoil, Lin's incense burns

Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingyan walked out of the dungeon together. Xiao Jingyan, who had been puzzled for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak first.

"Mr. Su, Mr. Chen and Xia Jiang have known each other for a long time, or is there a grudge between the two of them?"

Mei Changsu asked in surprise, "Your Highness, why do you ask this question?"

Xiao Jingyan said: "When Mr. Chen was talking to Xia Jiang, Xia Jiang was fine, but suddenly he became very excited, and finally couldn't speak. It must be Mr. Chen who said something to him, otherwise Xia Jiang would not So excited, Xia Jiang couldn't speak in the end, must it be Mr. Chen who moved?"

With such a simple matter, Mei Changsu did not expect to deceive Xiao Jingyan.

"Your Highness, you are right. Brother Yu did have a grudge against Xia Jiang. When he knew that His Highness wanted to deal with Xia Jiang, he did his best to help. The last time he rescued Wei Zheng, Brother Yu did his best; so This time Xia Jiang was about to be given to death, so I thought about repaying his favor, letting him see Xia Jiang for the last time, and ending the enmity between them."

"I see."

Xiao Jingyan was not too surprised. People like Xia Jiang must have enemies. Zhou Chen is Xia Jiang's enemy. His previous behavior is understandable.

"Mr. Chen is also a great talent, but it's a pity that he doesn't have the intention of becoming an official in the court, otherwise, he will definitely be able to accomplish a lot."

Before Zhou Chen saved the Empress Dowager, Emperor Liang wanted to recruit Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen refused.

Xiao Jingyan didn't think that his invitation would be more attractive to Zhou Chen than his father's invitation.

Mei Changsu said with a smile: "Brother Yu is not like me, he is used to being unrestrained, and what he yearns for most is freedom, but His Highness, don't worry, Brother Yu used to be like this, but it won't necessarily be the case in the future. "

Xiao Jingyan became interested and asked curiously, "What do you mean by that?"

"Brother Yu has settled down in the capital and has a child, which means that he intends to settle in the capital, but it is not so easy to survive in the capital where there are many high-ranking officials and nobles. Thinking about going out."

"Makes sense."

Xiao Jingyan agreed very much. He lived in the capital. Although he was a prince with a noble background, his life was not good since he was hated by Emperor Liang.

Even he, the prince, was in distress, let alone someone from the world like Gong Ziyu.

Zhou Chen also left the sky prison in a good mood. Xia Jiang died, and he was not far away from completing the main task.

Xia Jiang's death caused a huge shock in the capital, even more shocking than Xie Yu's downfall.

Xie Yu fell, but at least he was not given to death, he was still alive.

But Xia Jiang was different. After being imprisoned for so long, he was given to death so easily in the end.

You must know that Xia Jiang's status is higher than that of a first-rank military marquis, and as the head of the Xuanjing Division, his power is actually higher than that of Xie Yu.

Such a character would die if he said he would die. Although no one dared to say anything on the surface, secretly, the forces of all parties were surging and uneasy.

The main reason is that in the past two years, the changes in Daliang's court have been astonishing. The six ministers have been changed almost all over the place, the princes have suffered losses, and even the crown prince has been abolished.

How can this treacherous change not make people feel frightened.

Even some bold people are discussing in private that it is because of His Majesty's advanced age that the court is chaotic, the situation is unstable, and so on.

They didn't dare to say these things in private before, but now that the Xuan Jing Division is about to collapse, they have less scruples, so they dare to discuss these head-losing topics in private.

Prince Yu's Mansion!
When King Yu heard the news that Xia Jiang had died, he was numb.

In the recent period of time, he has suffered too many blows.

First of all, Mei Changsu's "betrayal" made him lose his bright future, and also made him understand that he is a clown who is being manipulated by others.

Although the crown prince fell, he did not rise, and was even suppressed by Xiao Jingyan who came from behind.

Not long ago, his subordinate Qin Banruo disappeared mysteriously, which dealt a heavy blow to his already small forces.

Although Qin Banruo is a woman, her red sleeves and hidden lines have helped him countless times. Even the spy forces under his command are far inferior to Qin Banruo.

So losing Qin Banruo is tantamount to losing his intelligence ability and directly breaking off his arm.

Without Qin Banwei, he can only do his best to win over Xia Jiang. If Xia Jiang can become his man and get the power of Xuan Jingsi, he can make up for his previous power.

But who knows, something happened to Xia Jiang before he was recruited to Xia Jiang. After being imprisoned for so long, he has already lost his patience.

Until now, when he heard the news that Xia Jiang had died, the only hope left in his heart collapsed in an instant.

The current Prince Yu no longer has the vigor of the past, sometimes he doesn't even go to the court, and spends all day drinking and getting drunk in the palace.

In fact, Emperor Liang still cared about King Yu, but after the letter from Princess Linglong, he completely gave up on King Yu.

Because he was not sure whether King Yu already knew his life experience, so just in case, he would never give King Yu power again.

With King Yu not coming out, King Jing Xiao Jingyan naturally became the best candidate for the crown prince, but Emperor Liang didn't make a final decree, and no one knew when King Jing would take the throne.

Silent night!

Because of the birth of twins, Gong Yu couldn't feed the two children alone, so he specially found a nanny, which also made Gong Yu feel a lot easier.

Since giving birth, Gong Yu hasn't been out of the house, not even out of the room a few times, so she looks whiter than before.

"My lord, Aunt Jinyu is here today and asked if we want to arrange a full moon banquet for Dabao and Xiaobao?" Gong Yu said to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen said: "Of course the full moon banquet is arranged, but just invite a few people we are familiar with. There is no need to hold a large banquet. The nearest capital city is not very stable."

Gong Yu said softly: "Well, I will listen to you, Young Master."

Zhou Chen caressed Gong Yu's beautiful hair, frowning slightly, he was thinking about one thing, silent for a long time, finally he spoke.

"Gong Yu, there is something I would like to discuss with you and ask for your opinion."

Gong Yu raised his head: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Chen didn't say it directly, but said: "You should be clear about my relationship with Xiao Shu."

Gong Yu nodded, and said: "Well, I know that the son and the suzerain are close friends who grew up together, and brothers who depend on each other for life and death. They are not relatives, but more like relatives."

"Yes, not only that, but in the battle of Meiling back then, if there was no Xiaoshu, I might have died several times, so for me, he is my savior."

Recalling the danger and moments of death he experienced when he first traveled to this world, he still feels fear to this day.

If it wasn't for Lin Shu at that time, he would definitely have died on the battlefield. Although he also saved Lin Shu later, he was able to succeed because of Lin Shu, so although he never said it, he always remembered it in his heart. kindness.

"Before I promised Xiaoshu to be our child's adoptive father, but after Dabao and Xiaobao were born, I reconsidered. What do you think we should adopt Xiaoshu to Xiaoshu?"

Gong Yu's face changed suddenly, and he sat up straight suddenly.

"Adopt Xiaobao to the suzerain?"

Seeing that Gong Yu's face changed, Zhou Chen said softly: "I know you are the child's mother, and you must be uncomfortable saying this, but don't rush to refuse, let me analyze it for you."

Gong Yu was very unhappy, but Zhou Chen was her sky and her head, so she suppressed her emotions and nodded.

Zhou Chen continued: "I know Xiaoshu's physical condition, and I'm afraid it won't be long. With his current body, it is impossible for him to get married again, and it is impossible for him to have any more offspring, but I know he feels regretful in his heart; He is the only one left in the Lin clan, but he has no way to pass on the incense of the Lin clan, I know the pain in his heart very well."

In this era, especially for nobles like the Lin family, the inheritance of incense is very important. Even people who are indifferent to fame and fortune will attach importance to family inheritance.

"I want to help him fulfill this wish. You don't have to worry that Xiaobao will leave you. Even if Xiaobao is adopted by Xiaoshu, he will not take the child away, but will continue to leave it to us to raise, because he knows his own The situation, the child is so young, he can't take it well."

"Adopt Xiaobao to Xiaoshu. Although he can't have my surname in the future, he is still our biological son; and if the case is overturned in the future, I will probably restore the status of Wu Chenghou. Dabao, as the eldest son, will definitely inherit Wu Chenghou in the future." For the title of Marquis, Little Treasure can't compete with Big Treasure in this regard."

The primogeniture system, even in the 21st century, is the inheritance method used by most families, let alone in the ancient feudal society.

"But if Xiaobao is adopted by Xiaoshu, he can inherit everything from the Lin family. With Prince Jing Xiao Jingyan's personality, he will definitely treat Xiaoshu and the Lin family well. Jiang Zuomeng, Li Gang and Zhen are equal members of the team, so Xiaobao will be adopted by the Lin family, and the future will be even more glorious."

After hearing this, Gong Yu also admitted that Zhou Chen was right, but.

"But if Xiaobao is adopted to the suzerain, then he will no longer be our son in name."

In this era, the name is indeed very important. There is no difference between adopted children and biological ones, and the inheritance rights are the same.

Zhou Chen sighed: "The child will definitely grow up by our side in the future. If you think about it, even if he doesn't continue, after he becomes an adult, he will basically not be with us all the time. When the child grows up, he will have his own choice."

"Of course, these are all my own ideas. Gong Yu, you are my woman and Xiaobao's dearest mother. I respect your decision. If you want, I will tell Xiaoshu, and then at the child's full moon banquet Now, announce this matter and complete the adoption; if you don't want to, then forget it."

For a moment, Gong Yu didn't know what to say.

Zhou Chen said softly: "There are still a few days before the full moon, you should think about it."

"Ah."

Gong Yu finally responded, but his expression became very complicated, obviously he was also entangled in his heart.

"Young master, we should tell mother about this too, right?"

"Wait for you to think about it first."

Gong Yu didn't think about it for long, and she told Zhou Chen the answer the next day.

"Young Master, I have decided. I will adopt Xiaobao to the Suzerain as you said, but can you not let Xiaobao leave us?"

Seeing Gong Yu's nervous and sad expression, Zhou Chen sighed slightly.

"Didn't I just tell you last night, even if adopted, Xiaobao will grow up beside us. I know Xiaoshu, not to mention his body, alas."

"I know you are reluctant, but this is indeed a good choice for Xiaobao's future."

Once Chi Yan's case is overturned, Xiao Jingyan takes over, and Xiaobao inherits the Lin family, he is destined to have a glorious life. Both Xiao Jingyan and his descendants will treat the Lin family well, let alone the future Chang Lin Wang Xiao Tingsheng.

Gong Yu said softly: "Dabao and Xiaobao are our children. You are right, son. We can't give it to Xiaobao. The suzerain can. I hope Xiaobao will be better in the future."

The love of the parents is far-reaching.

This sentence could not be more appropriate to describe Gong Yu at this time.

"Are you going to talk to mother?"

"Well, my mother will agree. She has a very good relationship with Xiaoshu's mother, as close as sisters. My father is also brother-in-arms with Lin Shuai."

…………

For this matter, Zhou Chen went to Su Mansion specifically.

He came just in time, Mei Changsu was entertaining guests, and the guests were none other than acquaintances.

"Brother Nie, Sister Dong, Brother Meng, you are all here."

Mei Changsu said with a smile, "What a good day today, you two agreed to come together."

Meng Zhi laughed loudly and said, "I'm taking a rest today, I have nothing to do, so I just come to you for a stroll. As for Xia Dong, I think she just came to look for Brother Nie."

Xia Dong glared at Meng Zhi, and then said: "I'm not as busy as you, I have nothing to do now, so I can go wherever I want."

Xia Jiang is dead, and the Xuan Jing Division has not been abolished, but it has not been restarted, so she really has nothing to do now as the director of the mirror.

"Xiaochen, what about you, why did you come here when you're not at home with the child?"

Zhou Chen said: "I'm here to find Xiaoshu to discuss a very important matter."

Xia Dong laughed and said, "It's a very important matter, do we need to avoid it?"

Zhou Chen said: "That's not necessary, anyway, even if you are not here, you will know soon."

Seeing that Zhou Chen didn't care, Mei Changsu asked, "What's important?"

Zhou Chen organized his language and said, "Do you still remember what I told you before? Let my child recognize you as foster father?"

Mei Changsu smiled and said, "Of course I remember, but now that the child is still young, it's unnecessary to say that."

Zhou Chen shook his head: "I've changed my mind now, the relationship between you and me, needless to say, I have an idea, I'm going to adopt Xiaobao to you, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the room changed dramatically, only the sound of burning charcoal was left.

Mei Changsu's expression was even more stunned, he stared blankly at Zhou Chen, even though he was so intelligent, he was really completely stunned at this moment.

Instead, it was Meng Zhi's thick line, and said in a harsh voice: "Xiao Chen, what did you just say, you plan to adopt your youngest son to Xiao Shu? Did I hear correctly?"

"Yes, you heard me right, I have this idea, but it depends on Xiao Shutong's disagreement."

Swish!
Everyone's eyes fell on Mei Changsu, and Meng Zhi shouted excitedly, "Xiao Shu!"

Meng Zhi's cry woke Mei Changsu up, he swallowed, and still looked at Zhou Chen with incredulous eyes, feeling his throat was dry.

"Xiao Chen, do you know what you are talking about?"

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "I knew you would react like this. Of course I know what I'm talking about. We have known each other for so many years, and we have lived and died together so many times. You should be able to understand my thoughts. You just need to tell me , are you willing, as for the others, you don't need to have any scruples."

"I……"

Mei Changsu opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say no at all. Of course he was willing, but...

Meng Zhi immediately persuaded: "Xiao Shu, I think it's okay. You are not Mei Changsu, your name is Lin Shu, and you are a descendant of the Lin family. If you have a son, the Lin family can be passed on."

Xia Dong also persuaded: "Xiao Shu, Commander Meng is right, I think you should think carefully."

Mei Changsu's expression kept changing, but he still didn't give his answer.
