The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Chapter 188 Destined to be sad

Ouyang Sheng almost choked on his trachea with a sip of tea and coughed several times: "I remember that you are one year older than me and haven't even gotten married yet, but you are concerned about when I will give birth to my son."

"Don't I regret it?" Zhang Chengxuan looked annoyed, "If I had gotten married and had children earlier, I wouldn't be so anxious now."

Ouyang Sheng's heart moved: "Is it to regain the lost ground of the previous dynasty?"

Zhang Chengxuan nodded and said: "Actually, it will be at least three years before the emperor sends troops. Now let me train the troops first. When I have children in three years, those old ministers will have nothing to say, so why not Can you let me go to the battlefield?"

"You said it lightly." Ouyang Sheng poured cold water on him without hesitation, "You don't even know where your wife is now, and you still have a son."

"It's easy to have a son when you get married. But this is the right choice for my wife..." Zhang Chengxuan tapped the lid of the tea cup with his fingers, looking very embarrassed, "Please help me take a look, who among the ladies of the right age in this city is..." Suitable for a man."

Ouyang Sheng didn't choke on his tea this time, but instead said: "You want me to help you find out who will have a son? I'm not the old lady in the back house!" Even the wives of meritorious families, the bride-to-be can see it. It's also De Rong's fault. Who knows if he will have a son!

"I wish there was an old lady in the back house." Zhang Chengxuan sighed quietly.

His parents died early and his family was withering away. There really was no one to help him do this. Ouyang Sheng thought for a while and said, "You'd better see who is interested in you first. To put it bluntly, people like you may seem to have unlimited glory, but in fact they are struggling to make a living on the edge of a knife. Not everyone is willing to do that. I will marry my daughter to you.”

"Who says it's not the case... When you marry into a military general's family, you have to be prepared to be a widow." Zhang Chengxuan sighed softly, "Look at the two daughters-in-law of King Pingnan. Although they are not widowed, they are almost the same as living widows. There are many differences between husband and wife. We haven’t seen each other for years.”

The home of a military commander has as much scenery as it does in front of people, but there is also as much bitterness behind it.

Ouyang Sheng was silent for a moment and said: "Being loyal to the country is our duty as ministers. This is just a matter of words between you and me, but please don't be heretical."

"I feel for the wives of military generals. I myself am eager to go to the battlefield. It is better to die on the battlefield than to die in bed." Zhang Chengxuan laughed, and his face suddenly became serious again, "Some time ago, Pei Guogong entrusted Someone went to find out about me and wanted to betroth the eldest daughter of his family to me."

Duke Pei? The Queen’s natal family? Ouyang Sheng deliberately pretended not to understand: "I have met the eldest lady of Peiguo's family. She is good-looking and smart. She is a good match for you."

"You know what I mean." Zhang Chengxuan knew that he was pretending to be stupid on purpose and was very dissatisfied.

Ouyang Sheng put away his carelessness and looked at him deeply: "Your Majesty is in his prime, why do you have to be so clear-cut so early. I remember you were not like this before. Could it be because of Miss Su San?"

Su Sutong was the person he once loved deeply, but now he is committed to King Heng. He didn't say it, but he must have a grudge in his heart, so he sided with King Rong so early, right?

"Nonsense, I am doing it for the emperor's country and the people of the world." Zhang Chengxuan flatly denied it, but he was obviously a little out of breath.

"If you are happy, you are happy. Why should you deny it? Even if things are different and people are different, the original feelings are not fake." Ouyang Sheng said, "But I really can't blame King Heng for this matter. Just say you don't love me." Listen, if Miss Su San hadn't posted it herself, wouldn't King Heng have forced her to do it?"

"Then she should be given a title, instead of being unclear as she is now. How can Prince Heng be qualified for such a big job with his personal ethics?" Zhang Chengxuan said, feeling a little impatient, "I have made up my mind on this matter. , you don’t need to say anything more.”

Ouyang Sheng turned to look at the books on the wall and fell silent. He originally wanted to recommend his sister-in-law, but Zhang Chengxuan got involved in the battle for the crown prince too early, and it was easy for people to think that he was the one who stood out. For the sake of Pingnan Palace, he decided not to be the matchmaker.

Zhang Chengxuan faced the light, looked at Ouyang Sheng for a moment, and said, "Don't just talk about me, what about yourself? King Heng has refused to give up on the Ye family until now, so you and him must be at odds with each other, right?"

"Private is private, public is public, they cannot be confused." Ouyang Sheng turned around and said seriously, "Besides, as a minister, I am only loyal to the emperor."

"You refuse to tell the truth in front of me? Ouyang Sheng, it's very boring for you to do this." Zhang Chengxuan said "ha".

This is his truth, it's just that he has already got into trouble and refuses to believe it. Ouyang Sheng knew that he couldn't be persuaded, so he could only deliberately laugh at himself: "With my current status, do I need to consider these things? With this time, I might as well think about what I can do to make the emperor forgive me and give me another reward. Give me a job and let me support my family.”

Zhang Chengxuan felt a little guilty when he heard what he said. He felt that he should not have mentioned those words just now: "Your talent is obvious to all, and it will not change at all because of your identity. When the emperor discusses the candidates for military training again, I will I will definitely recommend you.”

"Don't." Ouyang Sheng said hurriedly, "The Holy Will is unpredictable. Don't fall into trouble because of me. You should concentrate on finding a wife and having a son."

"You and I are brothers, how could I not plan for you?" Zhang Chengxuan said sincerely.

"Since you recognize me as your brother, just listen to my advice." Regardless of the pain in his knees, Ouyang Sheng stood up and walked over and patted his shoulder, "We are not children anymore. Don't put your preferences on the line." On your face. It’s understandable that you support King Rong, but why do you need to let everyone know?”

Zhang Chengxuan lowered his head and looked at the tea cup, and said for a long time: "Your knee is injured, so don't stand for a long time."

This meant that he didn't listen to what he said. Ouyang Sheng couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Chengxuan no longer had any intention of continuing to discuss the marriage with him, so he stood up and left.

As soon as Zhang Chengxuan left, Ye Yuxiao slipped in and asked sharply: "Has he been going on blind dates recently? Is there a girl he likes? Did he mention my second cousin? Even just a few words?"

"It would be better if you don't mention it." Ouyang Sheng was in a low mood, his eyebrows lowered.

"Why?" Ye Yuxiao was confused.

"He is determined to be a lobbyist for King Rong, but he is afraid that many people have already targeted him." Ouyang Sheng sighed, "otherwise, those veterans would not suddenly bring out their children to hinder him at the juncture of military training. He. Our Daxi Dynasty has been established for so many years, when did we have such a rule? "

Any changes in the Qing Dynasty have deep-seated reasons? These women seem to be far away from the court, but they are actually in it and cannot be alone? Ye Yuxiao suddenly felt that she was too naive: "I thought that as long as Zhang Chengxuan was interested in Qingyan, everyone would be happy. It turns out that this marriage was not successful from the beginning. I am afraid that Qingyan is destined to be sad."
