When Xiao Yan ascended the throne as emperor, he suddenly remembered his son Xiao Tong.

On this day, Mrs. Ding brought his son Xiao Tong.

Xiao Yan said: "This kid has a tiger's head, and he really looks like me." ”

"yes." Mrs. Ding said.

"I think I can make him the crown prince." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Oops. How can the son of a concubine be made a prince? Has Your Majesty forgotten the Queen's son? Mrs. Ding asked.

"That's right. I recently posthumously crowned my deceased wife, Xi Hui, as the empress. Xiao Zhengde is also my righteous son. But now I have a son. How can the royal blood be confused? So I decided to let Xiao Zhengde return to his family. He was originally Xiao Hong's son. Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Mrs. Ding thought to herself: Great. My son is the crown prince. Xiao Zhengde will not be a prince in the future.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Mrs. Ding said with a smile.

"I will also crown you as a noble concubine, and you will rule the six palaces. Actually, I originally wanted to make you queen. However, your family background is really not illustrious. Therefore, I can only make you a noble concubine. Xiao Yan said sadly.

Ding Guifei thought to herself: It's a pity. I didn't have the ability to be a queen.

"Concubine, Your Majesty." Ding Guifei knelt down.

Xiao Yan thought to herself: Actually, I didn't canonize Ding Lingguang as the queen in order to protect her. At present, Liang Guo is still in crisis.

Many of the nobles are eyeing us. If Ding Lingguang is canonized now, he will be the queen. I'm afraid she will also be harmed.

Xiao Zhengde received the edict of Xiao Yan to "return to his home" and was very depressed.

He thought to himself: Now that my father-in-law has a son of his own, he doesn't want me anymore.

Father-in-law. Why do you do this to me?

Am I just a pawn for you?

Now that you have the Jiangshan Sheji of Qi State, you kicked me away.

Father, why are you like this?

Xiao Zhengde was already in tears.

He remembered the scene when Xiao Yan adopted him as a righteous son:

Xi Hui went to the study to find Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan was still reading the water conservancy book "The Book of Water", and he thought to himself: There is a person named Li Daoyuan in Wei State, and he made annotations to the "Book of Water". Unfortunately, I couldn't see him.

"Sir." Xi Hui shouted.

"What's wrong again?" Xiao Yan was a little impatient.

"What? You're going to marry a second wife, have you forgotten about me, a wife? Song Hong of the Han Dynasty said: The wife of the chaff will not go to court. People can be so arrogant in the face of Emperor Guangwu. It's like you! In the face of the coercion and temptation of Xiao Baojuan, the faint king, he accepted the beauty. Madame Xi Hui said angrily.

"If it's Ding Lingguang's matter, Madame doesn't have to say it anymore. After all, she's just a concubine. You don't have to worry. Doesn't threaten you. Xiao Yan said helplessly.

"Sir. I'm not here today for this matter. It's something else. Mrs. Xi Hui said with a smile.

"What's the matter? Wouldn't it be that you are going to give me a concubine too? Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"You think beautifully!" Xi Hui said angrily.

"So what can it be?" Xiao Yan asked.

He thought to himself: Could it be that you want me to arrange which of his younger brothers to be officials?

"Is it your younger brother who graduated from Guozijian and needs to be assigned a job? I can arrange it for him! Xiao Yan said impatiently.

"It's not. Sir, we don't have a son now. I'm also in my thirties, and I'm afraid I won't be able to have a son anymore. However, our Xiao family's incense also needs to be inherited. Therefore, I suggest: adopt your younger brother Xiao Hong's third son, Xiao Zhengde, as a son. Mrs. Xi Hui said with a smile.

"That's fine. He is also my nephew. Xiao Yan nodded with satisfaction.

Xiao Yan thought to himself: Actually, Xiao Zhengde is very stubborn. But after all, it's my nephew. I can still teach him. Hopefully he can change.

"So be it. I see that you also like Ding Lingguang. Since His Majesty has given marriage. Then, I also agree with you to take a concubine. However, Chen Qingyi must not be able to marry Xiao Yuyao. He is a businessman, if he really becomes the son-in-law of our Xiao family, I am afraid that we will become the laughing stock of the scholars. Madame Xi Hui said angrily.

"Madame, rest assured. I wouldn't agree. Xiao Yan laughed.

Xiao Yan decided to accept his nephew Xiao Zhengde as his adopted son, so he said to his third brother Xiao Hong: "Third brother, I have always had no children under my knees, and I hope to succeed your third son Xiao Zhengde as a son." ”

"Well said. Not a problem. Xiao Hong's face suddenly turned red.

He thought to himself: If my son can be Xiao Shuda's heir, won't his family's gold, silver and jewelry be mine?

"Then it's decided." Xiao Yan said with a smile.

He thought to himself: Why did the third brother agree so quickly?

Did he want his son to be my adopted son? So that he can embezzle my property?

In fact, Xiao Zhengde is not a person of good character.

He was a very naughty man.

But if he becomes my son. I will definitely educate him well.

Speaking of Xiao Hong, after he told his son Xiao Zhengde about the succession, Xiao Zhengde was suddenly ecstatic.

He shouted, "Really? The second uncle is going to adopt me as his son? It's just wonderful. ”

Xiao Zhengde thought to himself: If I can be the son of my second uncle, wouldn't I be able to interact with my cousin Xiao Yuyao often. Although, my cousin said that she was going to marry Chen Qingzhi. However, Chen Qingzhi is from a humble background. The second uncle will definitely not agree.

If I were the son of my second uncle, wouldn't I be able to marry Xiao Yuyao?

"You're stubborn by nature, though. If you become the son of your second uncle, you need to be restrained. Otherwise, that's a very dangerous thing. Xiao Hong worried.

A few days later, Xiao Zhengde went to the Yongzhou Thorn Mansion.

He saw that the flowers in the house, especially the peonies, were in full bloom.

He thought to himself: In the future, I will be the eldest young master of Yongzhou Thorn History.

Chen Qingzhi was also in the mansion and happened to meet Xiao Zhengde.

"Yo. Isn't this General Chen? Xiao Zhengde said with a smile.

"I'm not a general. Master. Chen Qingzhi said with a smile.

"If you marry your cousin Xiao Yuyao, aren't you a general?" Xiao Zhengde said ridiculously.

"I don't know where you heard the rumors, but you actually believe that the eldest lady is going to marry me. I'm a subordinate. Chen Qingzhi said with a smile.

Xiao Zhengde continued to sneer: "Chen Qingzhi, isn't your purpose to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix to what are you pretending, pretending?" Who doesn't want to get ahead in the world? ”

Chen Qingzhi thought: Xiao Zhengde is just going to be the adopted son of the master. Why is it so domineering? Doesn't he know: to be a low-key person?

Xiao Zhengde thought to himself: What kind of thing is Chen Qingzhi, the toad wants to eat swan meat. actually wants to marry Xiao Yuyao.

I must not let him succeed, otherwise I will have a status in the Yongzhou Assassin Mansion?

Xiao Zhengde thought to himself: Now it seems that everything is in the past.

He returned to Shangshu Zuo's Servant Mansion and began to pack his things and prepare to return to his father Xiao Hong.

Xiao Yuyao saw his listless appearance and walked over.

"Now, his father has made his eldest son Xiao Tong the crown prince. Big brother, my father asked you to return to your uncle's house. Xiao Yuyao cried.

"The father-in-law is also selfish. He has abandoned me. Xiao Zhengde cried.
