Chapter 552: I only Know the Duke of Anguo, but Not the Emperor of Huainan

Hearing this, Wu Yanqing was stunned for a moment, and then his excitement was beyond words. At this time, he was even happier than Chen Mo at the time.

You know, Wu Mi is Chen Mo's first wife, so the children born to the first wife, especially boys, will most likely be Chen Mo's successor in the future.

With Chen Mo's current status, he was one of the best in the Song Dynasty, and his ambitions were well known to the world.

If it succeeds, then the son born to Wu Mi will be the prince.

As relatives, the Wu family can also benefit greatly from it.

"Congratulations to Duke An Guo on your son." Wu Yanqing said happily.

"Same joy."

Chen Mo looked at the old man who smiled kindly and said: "My son-in-law destroyed Jinxia Barbarians' Eastern Route Army this time and cut off one of Jinxia's arms. Jinxia suffered such a defeat and its troops need to be replenished. In the short term, they should be unable to do more." Invaded the Song Dynasty.

But now that the domestic situation is complicated, King Huai will definitely not sit still and wait for death when he takes refuge with Queen Chong. After Lusheng annexes Xiliang, its power will definitely expand again. At that time, the two parties will inevitably have ideas about the rich and fertile lands such as Jiangnan, Huaizhou, and Fengzhou. Therefore, south of the Fenghuai and Huaizhous, Thanks for your hard work, my father-in-law is here to take charge. "

Through last year's taxation, Chen Mo knew how wealthy Huaizhou was. The combined taxes of Qing, Yu, and Linzhou were comparable to Huaizhou.

Now that he controls the entire north, he has posed a threat to many people. At this time, there must be some people who will not let him develop in peace.

"I will definitely live up to my virtuous son-in-law's trust." Wu Yanqing's expression condensed and he said seriously.

Before this, he might not have been so concerned, but after learning that Mi'er had given birth to Chen Mo's son, Wu Yanqing's thoughts changed now.

Protecting Fenghuai Prefecture is to protect the foundation for his grandson, and it is also the basis for ensuring the prosperity of the Wu family. How could he not do his best.

Afterwards, Chen Mo talked to Wu Yanqing about the casualties of Jiangdong Army during this northward march, and finally said that Jiangdong Army should be returned to Wu Yanqing.

Wu Yanqing said: "They are all good men from Jiangdong and the Song Dynasty. They did not embarrass us Jiangdong, so they deserved their death. Although the barbarians of Jinxia were driven away, this is only temporary. Jinxia's desire to destroy me and the Song Dynasty will not die. The situation in the country is also extremely complicated, and it is time for Xian Xin to employ people, so let them stay in Linzhou to serve Xian Xin. "

"How does this make."

"Don't refuse, Mr. An Guo."

"Okay." Chen Mo originally didn't want to return Jiang Dongjun, so he said it out of courtesy.

He just talked about Jia'er, and Wu Yanqing was too embarrassed to go back.

"Brother, how are you doing in the Fish Scale Guard?" Chen Mo mentioned Wu Changlin.

"Chang Lin has grown a lot during this time, and I would like to thank Xian Xian for giving him this opportunity."

…

the other side.

Xiao Jing met Xiao Yunxi in the backyard hall of the mansion where Chen Mo lived in Huainan County.

Ever since that day when the Tianshi Army raided Huaizhou and Xiao Yunxi, who was still Princess Huai, went to the south of the Yangtze River to seek refuge, the father and daughter had met. Since then, until now, the father and daughter have not seen each other for nearly three years.

So many things happened during this period, from the destruction of the Tianshi Army, to Huaizhou being occupied by Chen Mo, to Xiao Yunxi being captured, and the Xiao family serving Chen Mo, etc., it made the father and daughter feel that more than three years had passed. .

Before they met, both parties felt that they had too much to say to each other.

But now that they have actually met, neither of them spoke first, and both of them choked up.

"Dad, I haven't seen you in these years, how are you?" In the end, Xiao Yunxi spoke first and saluted Xiao Jing with red eyes.

"It's okay to be a father. It's just hard on you." After reaching this point and becoming Chen Mo's concubine, Xiao Jing knew how sad it was.

"It's not hard, my husband is very kind to his daughter." After saying that, Xiao Yunxi asked Xiao Jing to sit down and ordered the servants to make tea.

Xiao Jing looked at Xiao Yunxi deeply and believed her words.

Whether a person is living well or not can usually be seen by looking at his or her face.

The last time his daughter went back to Jiangnan to seek refuge, Xiao Jing could see that her daughter had a hint of melancholy. Even though she was wearing makeup, he could still tell that her mental state was a little bad.

But this meeting was different. Her face was rosy and her complexion had improved a lot. The most important thing was that her daughter seemed to have gained a lot of weight.

After Xiao Jing sat down, he hesitated for a long time and then asked: "Yun Xi, are you pregnant?"

Xiao Yunxi was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said shyly: "It's still far away."

Hearing this, Xiao Jing raised his eyebrows: "Is it still far? Mr. An Guo. Doesn't he want you to give birth to a child for him, or does he think it's getting in the way?"

The reason why Xiao Jing said anything was because her daughter changed Zheng'er's surname last time and then sent Zheng'er to Jiangnan, which inevitably made Xiao Jing feel that Chen Mo hated Zheng'er.

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Xiao Yunxi said with some embarrassment: "You also know that the exercises your daughter practices cannot lead to pregnancy. After giving birth to the baby, her daughter started practicing again. She stopped practicing in the second half of last year. I am currently recuperating my body, and I can’t get pregnant now even if I want to.”

The more she spoke, the quieter Xiao Yunxi's voice became.

"That's good." Xiao Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said immediately: "Yun Xi, you should be more careful about this child. This is the guarantee for your future and the Xiao family's guarantee."

My daughter has already been married once and has children. She is over thirty years old. If she does not hurry up and get pregnant now, she will become old and lose her beauty in the future. Not only will it be difficult to get pregnant, but she will also lose her feminine charm.

There is a saying that once an elderly couple kisses, they can have nightmares for a few nights.

This is no joke.

"Dad, if you say anything more, your daughter will ignore you." Xiao Yunxi was anxious.

Seeing this, Xiao Jing could only change the topic and ask what kind of person Chen Mo's legal wife Wu Mi was, whether she was jealous or not.

"She's pretty good, and she's also good to my daughter. After I stopped practicing, she personally prescribed medicine for me to take care of me." Xiao Yunxi said.

Xiao Jing nodded, and then said: "I heard that she's pregnant. Has she given birth?"

"She gave birth last month. It's a boy named Chen Jia."

Xiao Jing immediately showed an envious look: "That old guy really gave birth to a good daughter."

Xiao Yunxi didn't respond, otherwise the topic would be brought to her again.

Xiao Jing's eyes darkened for a moment, and he put away his thoughts that shouldn't have been there, and then said: "I heard that recently the Duke of Anguo married the head of the Yue family in Longyou?"

Xiao Yunxi nodded and said: "Yes, she also came to Huaizhou this time."

Xiao Jing's eyes were deep and his gaze was far away. After recovering the north, he immediately started to organize the imperial examination, and now he has taken the Yue family in Longyou into his pocket.

The north, Longyou, Jiangdong, Jiangnan, and Fengzhou, half of the world will belong to Chen Mo.

After a long time, the people in these areas will only know the Duke of Anguo, and not the emperor of Huainan.
