From starting to giving birth, it took a whole day. From being awakened in the morning to now at dusk, when the baby's cry was finally heard in the delivery room, Xue Xun heaved a sigh of relief and almost slipped off the chair.

The golden beast came to support the weak-legged master, and said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, master, the Xue family has a son, and the master can rest in peace if he knows."

Xue Xun heaved a sigh of relief, it would be good without the unhealthy wind brought about by his moth, and now the situation is stalemate, he doesn't want to change his wife.

"Go, go to the ancestral hall to tidy up first, and then I will announce the good news to my master later." Xue Xun ordered.

In this gap, the midwife has already wrapped the newborn baby and carried it out of the delivery room. Now the inside and outside of the delivery room are warm, and the winter chill is not felt at all.

Xue Xun stretched his neck to look, he was wrinkled and red, his nose and eyes were wrinkled together, he looked like a little old man, not cute at all.

Maybe it was because Xue Xun's expression was wrong, the midwife was very experienced and said: "Congratulations to Mr. Xue, congratulations to Mr. Xue, you have a precious son, look at how handsome the young master is, look at his eyebrows and eyes, it is like a mold printed on you , it is said that the redder the skin at birth, the more handsome you will be when you grow up. In the decades since the old woman delivered babies, it is rare to see such a handsome man!"

"That's it, my son~" the silly father said happily, as if he wasn't the one who disliked him just now.

"Come give me a hug." Xue Xun stretched out his hand.

The midwife avoided it carefully, how could this man know how to hold a baby, she was not qualified to make decisions for his wife, but she still persuaded: "The newborn baby has soft bones, so you can't hold it. When the young master grows up..."

"Hug me!" Xue Xun said loudly.

The midwife was embarrassed to step forward and babbled a lot of instructions. Xue Xun accidentally touched the baby's soft face with his hand. The feeling was so soft, smooth and elastic that Xue Xun dared not reach out.The midwife held her hands like this, Xue Xun didn't respond for a while, and the midwife also saw that he was too strong to hug him.

The Golden Beast watched anxiously from behind, not knowing how to get out of the siege. At this time, there was a noise in the delivery room that woke Xue Xun up. Xue Xun hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Master, don't worry, I'm moving my wife out of the delivery room. The delivery room is full of blood, and it's convenient for my wife to confine herself to the back room." Zhu Qing came out from the inside, and said with relief.

"Can it be moved?"

"The wife has already moved there, and the delivery room hasn't been cleaned yet...Master, the delivery room is filthy..." Before Zhuqing finished speaking, Xue Xun strode inside.After Xue Xun left, he still did not forget to ask, "The whole family will give you three months' money, and the wife will give you half a year in the yard, and I will thank the doctor and midwife again."

Without waiting for the golden beast to answer, the midwife thanked behind her, "Thank you, Master Xue, thank you, Master Xue!"

Zhu Qing took the child from the midwife, and their maidservants freed up their hands, so the young master couldn't hold her in the midwife's arms all the time.Zhuqing asked the maid waiting at the door to lead the midwife to receive the reward, and asked the nurse to be taken to the west wing to nurse the child.

Mrs. Xue Wang in the back room has woken up, her face is pale, and there is still a bite wound on her lip, which was accidentally bitten by stuffing a soft cloth into her mouth before she came.

"Where's your son?" Xue Wang asked quickly when he saw Xue Xun coming in.

"Hold it on, don't worry, Zhuqing and Weilan will follow. I have hurt you for so long because of this brat, and when he grows up, he has to be filial to you."

"Thinking of his rosy face, no matter how serious the crime is, it's worth it." Xue Wang said weakly. Now she is lying still, but feels that her lower body is unconscious. When she gently stretches her muscles, she feels that she is being tortured. Saw off the waist.

Xue Xun wanted to say something, but his stomach growled. Xue Wang couldn't help laughing, and persuaded: "I was surrounded by a group of people in the delivery room, but Brother Hao was neglected?"

"A Su also learned those heartless words. How can I eat while you cry out in pain?"

"Hmm..." Mrs. Xue didn't know, she just heard her husband say it, but she couldn't hold back the tears. She hasn't been so heartwarming and warm for a long time. "Brother Hao, go eat quickly, I want to sleep." Xue Wang hurriedly found an excuse to let him go out.

"Okay, rest at ease, I agreed to take you to the Confucius Temple, and we will go when you are confinement." Xue Xun pressed her sweaty hair behind her ears, and smiled softly.

After leaving the delivery room, Xue Xun was not in the mood to eat, and went straight to the ancestral hall in a daze.The servants only thought that Xue Xun was happy that the Xue family had a descendant, so they rushed to announce the good news to their ancestors.

Xue Xun drove everyone out, offered incense three times in person, knelt on the futon, and silently prayed in his heart: "Master Xue, the ancestors of the Xue family, your Xue family has a descendant. I am a stranger, I don't know why. I came here to replace Xue Xun. The Xue family was originally a character in a storybook in my time and space, but now I understand that this is real life. Don’t worry, replacing Xue Xun is not my original intention. Since I have this opportunity, it must be The fate between me and the Xue family. In the future, I will treat this child as my own and train him to be the heir of the Xue family. If I have children in the future, I will not shake his status. I will work hard to carry forward the Xue family. I am responsible for this adventure. If there are really souls in the world, gods and bodhisattvas, please bless me a lot, and ask the ancestors of the Xue family to bless you."

It has been almost a year since Xue Xun came here, and no gods or elves have jumped out to express responsibility. If he hadn't clearly remembered his past life and knew who he was, he might have doubts about Zhuang Sheng's dream butterfly.

After praying in the ancestral hall, Xue Xun felt more relaxed than ever. He walked out of the ancestral hall and looked at the blue sky outside. His "church" too.

After worshiping his ancestors, Xue Xun got his first meal of the day.

Xue Wang's family gave birth to a healthy heir for the Xue family. The news spread quickly as the Xue family was unknown and therefore valued by the emperor.Shi Gui was the first to get the moon near the water tower, and brought Mrs. Li to the door to congratulate him in person.The newborn child follows Master Xue's last wish and is named Xue Pan.After three days of Xue Pan's washing, Mrs. Li was the first to reap the pot, just like the treatment of her mother's family. This shows that the relationship between Shi Gui and Xue Xun has become closer.

For the three-day wash, relatives and friends were invited, only the relatives of the Xue family's third bedroom, Shi Gui and his wife, and a few friends in the business field.

When Xue Pan was full moon, the full moon banquet became unprecedentedly grand, because Jingzhong actually gave the child a full moon gift.Everyone was moved when they heard the news, the Wang family far away in the capital heard the news, rushed over quickly, and brought a generous gift, which was not salty or salty when Wang Xue was pregnant.The old relatives such as the four princes and eight princes in Beijing are not to be outdone, and the gifts are more generous than the family.People in Jinling even stepped up their actions, and those who thought the Xue family was in decline stamped their feet with regret, deeply hating themselves for being short-sighted.

Adding up layers like this, Xue Pan's full moon banquet would be impossible if it were not grand.The Xue family didn't prepare a table for so many people originally, but after receiving the imperial decree, they stepped up to replenish it, but they still couldn't keep up with the speed of the people in power.More and more people came, and there was no room to sit in the yard, and the people below were worried about neglecting the guests, so they reported to Xue Xun for his advice.

"It's fine if you don't care about it. These people will come if they come, and leave if they go. Even if he is now serving him as a master, when it's time to betray, he will not hesitate to backhand him. Don't take it to heart." Xue Xun Don't care.

Xue Pan’s full moon banquet was grand and grand. Originally, people who came to join in the fun, eating delicacies from mountains and seas, watching lively songs, dances and operas, and chatting with the hot Mr. Xue’s family, felt that it was not in vain. fare.

After drinking for three rounds, the atmosphere was in full swing. Suddenly, the singing of "Imperial Decree Arrives" came from outside, and a father-in-law dressed in a fifth-rank eunuch uniform came slowly, surrounded by dozens of guards with swords, holding the imperial decree high.

"The imperial decree has arrived, after Ziwei gave up, Xue Xun received the decree—" the eunuch sang in a long tune.

The music stopped suddenly, and the courtyard was completely silent. The guests who came to the full moon banquet knelt aside, and the actors on the stage stopped singing, reciting and beating, and knelt respectfully on the stage.

The eunuch Xuanzhi was very satisfied with such solemn respect, unfolded the imperial decree, and said loudly: "By heaven, the emperor ordered that there is Xue Xun, the queen of Ziwei, who gave up her life... and made you the Marquis of Loyalty..."

Everyone could not hear the other words of praise in the imperial decree, only the three characters of loyalty and righteousness were repeated in their minds.

Hou Zhongyi...why?

The Xue family has no feats in governing the world, and no military exploits in defending the family and the country. They have somehow become marquises. Even if they are third-waiters, they, who are businessmen, are envious.Not to mention businessmen, even officials big and small in Jinling felt envious, sighing to themselves how lucky the Xue family is!

Xue Xun, who was envied, was not as grateful as everyone had guessed, and hurriedly accepted the imperial edict, for fear that the emperor would go back on his word.Instead, he kowtowed and bowed again, and said to Xuanzhi: "The noble is rewarding merit, and the salary is rewarding ability. Xue Xun has no merit and no virtue, so he dare not accept this heavy reward. Please also report to the sage, and take it back."

Eunuch Xuanzhi's face darkened. With his grade, even if he couldn't get in touch with the core, he knew that Xuanzhi was not a good job, otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to come.Eunuch Dui said with a smile: "The Marquis of Loyalty is humble. Since His Majesty has rewarded you, you deserve it. Please accept the order."

"Xue Xun does not dare to be rewarded for his lack of merit." Xue Xun still said the same thing, knelt on the ground and did not get up, nor did he accept the order.

Seeing Mr. Xuanzhi's complexion getting worse and worse, Shi Gui, who was kneeling beside him, couldn't help but tugged at Xue Xun's sleeve and said, "It's almost time for three words and three concessions. Hurry up and accept the order." Shi Gui is for Xue Xun. I'm looking for steps, a grassroots dare to refute the emperor's words, are you tired of it?Is there a hermit living in the mountains, what to do with this false name?

Xue Xun still insisted on not accepting the order. Now the emperor is begging him. When will he not put on airs at this time? No wonder there are three visits to the thatched cottage. The higher the posture, the better the treatment.The emperor thought that being a Marquis was already a great grace, but there was no official position in the imperial decree, and there was no authority granted. He took over so hastily, and he really fell into a sinkhole and couldn't get out.

Seeing Xue Xun's unexpected behavior, the guests in the yard started talking in low voices, and there was a buzzing sound in the yard, what's the matter?

The eunuch Xuan Zhi's complexion became worse and worse, he shook his sleeves and said, "Master Xue must think clearly!"
