Chapter 343 He wants to have a boy in one go!

Lu Yanshi was a little depressed. Why did Concubine Shu arrange such a large ceremony to pick them up?

It would be better to return to the palace quietly like last time.

If Shen Liuzheng knew what he was thinking, he would definitely despise him in his heart.

You're overthinking it. She's here to pick up the Ninth Princess.

After all, no one came to pick up the Ninth Princess last time. The Ninth Princess was sad for a long time and felt that no one loved her anymore.

This time when I come back, of course I have to make some arrangements.

As for him, the emperor, he was just a by-product.

Looking at the inquiring eyes of the court officials, Lu Yanshi had to introduce everyone on the spot.

He introduced them in the order in which they were picked up.

"Jiang Heci, the weaving director of the textile manufacturing department."

Jiang Heci lowered his head in disappointment when he heard this. He thought the emperor would directly announce his identity as the second princess's consort.

I don’t know how long he will follow the second princess like this without any status.

"Nong Sanxi, the head groom of Yuanma Temple." Lu Yanshi pointed at the ordinary-looking young man.

The court officials wondered in their hearts, how could a little kid raise a horse?

Even though he was just a ninth-rank official, wasn't it a bit bad for the emperor to send him away so hastily?

Lu Yanshi didn't hear their speculations and continued his introduction.

"Jin Yulu, the winery clerk of the Brewing Department."

Jin Yulu straightened her chest and allowed everyone to look at her with ease.

Meng Shanchuan followed behind, looking at the high-spirited Jin Yulu, smiling naively.

Look, that’s his future daughter-in-law, how amazing!

He was promoted to a sixth-rank official right away.

Lu Yanshi looked at Zhu Xinhui who was sitting in the wheelchair.

"Zhu Xinhui, Chief Physician of the Imperial Hospital."

Zhu Xin bowed back and signaled to the crowd.

The ministers were shocked.

Is that correct?

How can this cripple enter the Imperial Hospital?

Was he going to be a royal physician or to seek treatment from a royal physician?

"Liu Danqing, the coin minter of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Finance."

After Lu Yanshi introduced the last new face, an official wanted to ask a question. Lu Yanshi did not give him a chance and looked at Jiang Heci and others.

"I have high hopes for you. So I hope that you can do your best, live up to the heavy responsibility, and work hand in hand with me to achieve great governance and prosperity together!"

A few of them were a little dazed, looking at each other in panic, and could only nod stupidly.

"I will definitely live up to your expectations, Your Majesty." Qu Fufeng took the lead helplessly.

The other rookies who had just become officials immediately imitated him and answered.

"Okay, Lord Qu, I'll leave these people to you. Thank you for your hard work."

After Lu Yanshi introduced the people, he left the rest to Qu Fufeng and took Lu Li on the steam carriage.

Lu Xuan followed with a jump.

Lu Qi looked at Jiang Heci reluctantly, and followed Concubine Shu and the fifth imperial sister into another carriage.

"Farewell to His Majesty, and to His Majesty the Consort."

The ministers hurriedly saluted.

Qu Fufeng gritted his teeth. How come he was still working alone even though he was back in the capital?

No, he must talk to the emperor about the double-day off.

He is a human being, not a beast of burden. We should give him a chance to catch his breath.

Qu Fufeng worked hard for a long time and coordinated for a long time before finally arranging accommodation for them.

Fortunately, Meng Shanchuan was particularly concerned about Jin Yulu's affairs and helped him share some of the pressure.

Only then did he rush home before 3 p.m.

"Wuwuwuwu, my son, why have you become so thin?" Qu's mother looked at her son with a distressed look on her face.

"Have you lost weight?" Qu Fufeng pinched his slightly bulging belly, feeling a little guilty.

Jiang Heci's cooking skills are so good, and the emperor doesn't withhold their food. He has been eating more and moving less recently, and feels that he has gained a lot of weight.

"How come you haven't lost weight? You're almost skin and bones." Qu's mother wiped her tears and pulled him into the house.

Then he gave orders to his servants without giving Qu Fufeng a chance to speak.

"Hurry up and clean up for the young master. After washing up, quickly prepare the food for the young master to eat."

Qu Fufeng was pushed into the bathroom in a daze.

After washing up, looking at her refreshed son, Qu's mother nodded with satisfaction and led him to the dining table.

"Fufeng, this is your cousin Ling'er. You two cousins ​​haven't seen each other for a long time, so you should have a good chat."

Only then did Qu Fufeng notice that there was a new girl in the family.

"Hello, cousin." Yan Ling'er's eyes showed a hint of shyness, but she still greeted him calmly.

"Hello, hello." Qu Fufeng didn't care about the hidden meaning in his mother's words.

He is now a married man, and Concubine Xian has warned him not to take a concubine, so he doesn't have much thought about Yan Ling'er.

The patriarch of the Qu family, Qu Hongde, also came to this meal.

He saw that his daughter-in-law was trying to match his grandson with her niece from her mother's side, but he didn't stop her.

Yan Ling'er is a pretty good kid.

My grandson is already at this age, it’s time for him to get married. We can’t just stay away forever.

So at the dinner table, everyone cooperated very well and guided Qu Fufeng and Yan Ling'er to chat more.

But Qu Fufeng was concentrating on eating and had no intention of chatting any more.

Yan Ling'er took the initiative to talk to Qu Fufeng several times, but he was always perfunctory.

As a girl, she also needs to save face.

Seeing that Qu Fufeng didn't seem to like her at all, after finishing her meal, she bowed to Qu's father and mother and went back to her own yard.

"After you finish your meal, come to my study later." Qu Hongde glanced at his grandson and left slowly.

As soon as her father-in-law left, Qu's mother slammed the chopsticks on the table.

"Eat, eat, eat. All you do is eat. When will you let me hold my grandson?"

"Mom, please stop pushing me. I must have a boy this time!" Qu Fufeng gritted his teeth.

It has been so long and there is still no movement in Rou'er's belly. He began to suspect that after he left the palace, the emperor had someone feed Qi Xingrou contraceptive soup.

But my sister is watching over me, so it shouldn’t happen.

After all, Concubine Xian also hopes that Qi Xingrou will be pregnant.

"You don't even have a wife, you are dreaming about having a boy in one go." Qu's mother looked at him with hatred.

Qu Fufeng shuddered and suddenly realized, oh no, he hasn't told his parents about his relationship with Qi Xingrou yet.

Qu's mother kept on nagging: "The Concubine Xian said she would help you find a good marriage, but now it has been several years and there is no sign of marriage. I picked out thousands of people for you and chose your cousin Ling'er, but you are like a wooden stake. It really makes me angry."

"Your mother is right. Your cousin Ling'er is really good. She is beautiful and kind. She is also one of our family members, so there is no need to worry about secrets being leaked. She is a good candidate for our young lady, and your grandfather has agreed." Qu's father also chimed in.

Qu Fufeng finally realized that he had just been on a blind date without realizing it?

But what happened between him and Qi Xingrou cannot be revealed now.

He had no choice but to make an excuse: "Dad, Mom, don't worry about my marriage. The emperor has already arranged it for me, but it is not appropriate to announce it now."

He just couldn't believe that Rou'er couldn't have a child despite all the hard work he had done during this period!
