Chapter 206: Happy News Come One After Another

"What a family of the wealthy!"

Emperor Guangde threw aside the fold of secret information in his hand and slightly raised half of his mouth, but no one could tell whether he was angry or laughing.

"Isn't it true that the Jia family was the first of the eight dukes at the beginning, but now they are so unorthodoxly? Some days ago, when the slave bullied the Master, the nunnery raised another nest of young monks!"

At this time, the one who dared to answer the question to the Emperor was Prince Zhongshun. He sat on the chair in a state of depression. It was clear that he didn't do anything good last night.

He said, "If it weren't for the support of Imperial Concubine Xiande and Wang Ziteng, I think the two mansions of the Rong and Ning would have been removed from the four Prince and eight Ministers."

He slightly raised his spirits, and then said with a laugh, "But Your Majesty chose Imperial Concubine Xiande to appease those meritorious nobles, isn't it because she is not worthy in her family?"

Speaking of this, he stood up and bowed in flattery and said, "Now it seems that Your Majesty is really like a torch!"

"Hahaha..."

Emperor Guangde also couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and then broached the topic, "What about the Sun brothers? I heard that you just arranged for Sun Shaozu's new wife a few days ago."

"Although the Big Brother of the Sun family is detailed enough, that's all he has."

Prince Zhongshun took advantage of the situation, took a cup of ginseng tea, and said, "His Younger Brother is really interesting. He is obviously a tough guy. He has been stable in the Central Judicial Office for more than a year. He has repeatedly solved strange cases, and there are not many mistakes in his daily work, which is much better than that of the official of the Imperial Scholar."

"What is more important is that he is still young. If he is well cultivated, he will be useful in the future."

"Let him gain more experience for a few years first before determining whether he can be useful in the future."

Emperor Guangde shook his head slightly, but then raised his voice and called Dai Quan in and said, "Write down an edict on my behalf to Governor Liu Chongshan in the government to move to the post of Yunnan Superintend Envoy; Pass the position to Sun Shaozong in terms of his outstanding achievements, and promote him to Governor in the government; as for his position of the Assistant Magistrate, pass it to..."

—Dividing Line—

The promotion decree on December 28th undoubtedly added a little joy to the Sun Mansion.

After the Spring Festival, it was the fifteenth day of the first month in a flash.

While everyone was waiting for Imperial Concubine Xiande to return home to visit her parents, the expectations and anxiety of the Sun Brothers were more than ten times higher than theirs.

The delivery today was busy because Ruan Rong was finally giving birth to a baby!

Sun Shaozong and his Big Brother were in the yard. All of them were nervous and almost stepped down on the stone slab on the ground when they heard a loud cry.

"The baby’s born?!"

The two men were busy blocking the door. They stretched their necks and looked inside, regardless of what they could see through the thick cotton curtain.

"A baby’s born!"

In the middle of the loud cry, a woman beamed out of the curtain and said, "Congratulations, it’s a young boy!"

"Hahaha... It's a son, it's a son! Our Sun family finally has a future!"

Sun Shaozu smiled and couldn't close his mouth, but Sun Shaozong hurriedly grabbed the old woman and asked, "Where is Ruan Rong? Is she safe?"

The woman hurriedly said, "Both the mother and son are safe, Master!"

Sun Shaozong was relieved. He didn't care much about whether it was a man or a woman. As long as the mother and child were safe, it was enough. Of course, considering Ruan Rong's previous worries and the expectations of his Big Brother, having a son was undoubtedly the best result for everyone.

After feeling relieved, he asked again, "When is it convenient for us to go in and have a look at the child?"

"You may do so now. The Young Master has been carried to the outside room..."

Pushed~

Without finishing the woman's words, he directly jumped over her.

Although Sun Shaozong had known for a long time that his Big Brother was going crazy about wanting a son, he couldn’t help but be speechless when he looked at his impetuous behavior.

"Ouch, my old waist..."

The women screamed on the ground. Sun Shaozong hurriedly ordered, "Take the prepared reward over there, and the reward for this woman on the ground will be doubled!"

"Thank you, thank you! The Master will live a long life and have many children and grandchildren!"

The woman immediately put down her arms and thanked Sun Shaozong.

Sun Shaozong was impatient to continue talking to her.

He also went into the busy room.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the babysitter holding the baby. Sun Shaozu leaned over to flatter his nephew. His two big hands stretched forward and shrank back for a while. He looked like he wanted to hold the baby but didn't dare.

Seeing Sun Shaozong come in, his Big Brother hurriedly waved and said, "Hurry up, come here and have a look. This thick eyebrow and this size are the descendants of our Sun family!"

When Sun Shaozong passed by, he didn't wait to look up. He slapped Sun Shaozong on the back again. He laughed and said, "I knew that you were designated to have a son! Hahaha..."

Sun Shaozong, "..."

In silence, Sun Shaozong carefully looked at the baby in the swaddling clothes. On the whole, it was not small among newborn children.

However…

The child’s eyes were obviously closed, and he didn't know where his Big Brother’s comment of ”thick eyebrows” came from.

To tell the truth, although it was his first child, Sun Shaozong was not as excited as he was. He just looked at the little thing with his mouth closed and his nose trembling, and his heart felt inexplicably relieved.

So subconsciously, he reached out and was ready to take it from the arms of the babysitter.

"Be careful, be careful! Don't drop him!"

The nanny didn’t think it was a big issue, but dealing with his Big Brother was like dealing with a big enemy. He rubbed his hands and stamped his feet beside him, and even a few drops of cold sweat came out of his forehead.

Sun Shaozong was too lazy to listen to him. Learning the posture of the nanny, he held him firmly in his arms and then tried to touch his palm with his fingers. Although the child’s eyes were closed, his reaction was not slow. His small hand tightened, and he grasped Sun Shaozong's finger.

Sun Shaozong didn't know what was going on, but his Big Brother beside him stared like a brass bell and said excitedly, "Look, look! Look at this boy, he is energetic. When he grows up, he will also be able to be civil and powerful!"

Was there a relationship between strength in hand and being able to be civil and powerful?

Sun Shaozong was speechless again. He originally wanted to take the child in to see Ruan Rong. It was obvious that his Elder Brother wouldn’t leave his son. He simply leaned forward and said, "Elder Brother, hold him for a while, and I will go in to see Ruan Rong."

"Me?"

His Big Brother was startled, rubbed his palm hard, and stretched out his hand to hold it, but suddenly retracted and said, "No! I have to wash my hands first!"

As he spoke, he turned around to look for water.

Fortunately, there was nothing else in the delivery room, but there were enough hot towels.

So the smart nanny handed him a set at once, and his Big Brother used it to clean. After cleaning his hands thoroughly, more than 800 times, he then came to hold the baby, trembling.

Seeing that he was trembling all over, Sun Shaozong said helplessly, "Big Brother, if you don't sit cross-legged on the couch, you might drop him."

"That's right! You're smart, I didn't think of it!"

Sun Shaozu hurriedly threw off his boots and jumped onto the couch. He sat cross-legged and stared at the child in Sun Shaozong's hand like a pug.

Sun Shaozong was very careful and handed the child to him. Then he didn't want to look at his expression and stepped into the room.
