Looking at Mao Youyi's stride away, Cheng Xiaolian was a little lost, since ancient times, the king has been a lonely man, even if he is not willing to be a lonely man, he will be forced to be a lonely man, his relatives and friends can only be a rich and idle position, otherwise he will be regarded as a flattering person.

At the beginning, Tang He, the prince of Xinguo, was the best brother of Emperor Taizu, the two grew up together, and Zhu Yuanzhang's surrender to the army was a letter written by Tang He, but after the world was pacified, Tang He still took the initiative to resign from the military power, not that he was really not greedy for military power, but these were too insignificant compared to his own life.

Since the Five Dynasties and the Song Dynasty, a very bad practice has been opened, there is no mutual trust between the king and the generals, and after Zhou Shizong Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin are like brothers, before his death almost all the wealth and future affairs were entrusted to Zhao Kuangyin, who knows that Zhao Kuangyin turned his head and Chen Qiao mutiny yellow robe, so that he was later ridiculed by his own minister Zhao Pu and said: "How can Your Majesty bear Zhou Shizong?" ”

Therefore, since the Song Dynasty, Tuogu will never be entrusted to military generals with military power, including the four ministers of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, who are powerful but have no ability to command the army.

And Cheng Xiaolian is willing to trust the Mao family, but people will always change, when they are alive, they can be in harmony with their monarchs and ministers, in case one day they are gone, if they show their fierce fangs, who can stop them?

So Cheng Xiaolian gave the Mao family a multiple-choice question today, choosing power or affection, they chose power, Cheng Xiaolian didn't have anything to be sad about, he didn't have too deep affection with the Mao family, but he was afraid that Mao Ruoling would be sad.

Mao Ruoling was gossiping with Wen Duruo in the house, and suddenly someone at the door reported that Mao Youyi asked to see her.

The people around Cheng Xiaolian have already sent the news back to the house, otherwise it will not be easy for the civil and military forces in the court to step through the door of Cheng Xiaolian, according to Cheng Xiaolian, this is his own home, don't get the work to the family, and don't let the family get involved.

Mao Ruoling's face was happy at first, and then she asked: "General Mao is here, does your husband know?" ”

"I already know."

"Then hurry up and invite General Mao in." If it was in the past, Mao Ruoling had already rushed out in person, but she didn't want people to be filial, so she wouldn't do such a rude move.

Wen Duruo laughed: "Since my mother's family is here, I will take a step back first, my sister must stay for a light meal, I haven't seen her for a long time, I'm afraid I have a lot to say." ”

Mao Ruoling nodded: "General Mao is really, just such a person came, and Sister Ruolan didn't bring it, but I missed her." ”

After a while, Mao Youyi was led into the house: "The minister greets the mother." ”

"Why is my uncle divided, this is not outside, my husband doesn't call him His Majesty at home."

"The mother remembers the old love, but the rules can't be messed up."

Mao Ruoling was stunned for a moment: "Uncle, what's the matter, and why didn't you bring Sister Ruolan here this time?" ”

Mao Youyi was a little ashamed, he could have chosen to be prosperous and wealthy, so that he could give Mao Ruoling a maiden family in Chengdu Mansion, but for the sake of the family, he chose a more difficult path, and it had nothing to do with Mao Ruoling.

"Niangniang, we won't be able to interact with each other in the future?"

Mao Ruoling stood up: "Why is this?" ”

"Because the Mao family wants to gain glory and wealth with their own efforts, rather than the favor of the mother to ascend to the sky in one step."

Mao Ruoling thought about it and understood: "So you promised that your husband would no longer have anything to do with me, and you would be able to have a place in the court?" ”

"The reason why the Mao family did not occupy a place at the beginning was for the lifelong event of Niangniang, and now Niangniang can get the emperor's favor, we are already worthy of Mao Dudu, and from today onwards we will work hard for the glory of the Mao family, and the people in the court will not allow the existence of relatives, so we can only separate."

Mao Ruoling's eyes suddenly turned red: "I can't control your man's affairs, but my uncle can't bear that I won't even have a relative to gossip in the future?" ”

"Niangniang should be cautious in her words and deeds in the future, and it is better not to say gossip to everyone, otherwise it is easy to get into trouble. We hope that my mother will be safe and happy. So saying, he got up and walked out.

Mao Ruoling looked at Mao Youyi's back: "I also wish the Mao family great achievements here." ”

Mao Youyi didn't look back, he walked out of the mansion hard, after so many things, his heart has long been as solid as a rock, as long as it is good for both parties, he is willing to be this villain.

When Cheng Xiaolian returned to the house, the atmosphere in the house was very serious, everyone did not dare to speak loudly, and only a few children cried in the house.

"What's the matter, why are my sons and daughters crying, why doesn't anyone care?"

The nurse next to her hurriedly walked over: "Madame said, don't let us care." ”

"Which lady?"

"Big lady."

Cheng Xiaolian waved his hand: "Bring the diaper, my daughter is hungry, you go and feed." "Said to change the diaper by himself, the people in the house have long been accustomed to the things in the house, and they are no longer strange, not to mention the royal family, it is another big family, where is the master who changes the diaper himself, but the things in the house can not be talked about, as long as the silver is satisfied, shut up, who wants to talk about this troublesome thing outside.

Cheng Xiaolian changed two diapers with his own hands, watched his daughter finally stop crying when she was full, and looked at the slightly older Zhu Yiqi next to him: "You are also a big brother, why do your younger brothers and sisters cry and you cry too." ”

The nurse next to her almost laughed, no matter how old the child is, he is not even a year old, and it is strange that he can hold back and not cry.

Who knew that the three children finally saw the familiar figure, and they all giggled, Cheng Xiaolian hugged his youngest son Zhu Yizhao: "Stinky boy, I just provoked your own mother, second mother, and little mother are all angry, what do you say your father and I should do?" ”

Zhu Yizhao reached out to grab his nose, looked at Cheng Xiaolian's frowning appearance and laughed, Cheng Xiaolian pouted: "Forget it, you definitely have no position, you are with your mothers, I will ask my eldest daughter." ”

"Girl, what do you say Dad should do?"

His daughter couldn't speak, just lay there laughing, Cheng Xiaolian smiled bitterly: "You people who have no conscience, it's in vain that I love you so much on weekdays, and when something happens, it all depends on whether my joke is or not." ”

Zhu Yiqi was already able to say simple words at this time: "Hug, hug." ”

"Yes, it's still my eldest son who loves me, and I'll see your three mothers later, holding two in my left hand and one in my right hand, no matter what they say, I won't let go, and I'll definitely be done!"
