Quick Wear: Explosive Change! The cannon fodder female supporting role is done with it

Chapter 78 The Early Death of the Original Wife in the Cousin's Story 36
Linzhi was basking in the warm spring sun and feeling drowsy. Suddenly, she felt the sunlight was blocked. She opened her eyes and saw a man standing against the light, looking down at her.

Lin Zhi blinked: "... Chu Jing?"

Chu Jing's eyes were deep: "Madam, I'm back."

"…your son talks about you every day."

"Where's Madam?" Chu Jing leaned over, holding her in his arms, and asked, "Does Madam miss me?"

Lin Zhi turned her face away uncomfortably: "I'm very busy, how can I have time to think about you." She glanced at Chu Jing and saw that his collar was frayed, and his clothes were old and even had patches.

What kind of life did this person live before?

Chu Jing chuckled, "Madam, you say one thing and mean another." He paused, "But even if Madam doesn't miss me, I still miss Madam, day and night, thinking about her like crazy."

Linzhi...Is he going to be an official or to study love?

"When did my husband leave for the capital? Why didn't you send a message to the mansion?" After silently calculating, it would take about seven or eight days to travel from Jiangzhou to the capital by water. However, since he was transferred back to the capital, he naturally had to arrange things in Jiangzhou and started preparing at least two months ago. However, this person just didn't say a word.

"I want to give Madam a surprise." Chu Jing smiled, "Is Madam happy?"

He looked tired, with an untidy beard and covered in dust. It was obvious that he had not cared about anything else in his efforts to hurry on his way, and it was evident that he was eager to return to Beijing.

Lin Zhi raised the corners of her mouth: "I'm glad, but I'm right here, why are you in such a hurry?" She touched the dark circles under his eyes and said, "Look, you look at least three years older after all this time." Her eyes were hot and she felt a little distressed.

Chu Jing snorted and laughed: "You don't like it when you get old, Madam?" He bit her lips hard, as if a traveler who had been thirsty for a long time saw the water and took a deep sip.

Lin Zhi hugged him subconsciously: "Husband, I miss you so much..."

Chu Jing paused, then hugged her tighter.

In the evening, Xiao Fengrao saw his father, who was standing in front of Chu Jing and looking at him, his eyes full of doubts: "Are you my father?"

Chu Jing touched his head: "Hmm, your head is full of sweat. Have you gone out to play again?" From Tolinzhi's family letter, Chu Jing knew his son's life very well. He was very energetic and ran around the house. Of course, he learned things very quickly.

Chu Fengrao nodded: "I went to the suburbs to race horses with my grandfather. Are you really my father? But my father in my mother's painting has no beard."

Chu Jing looked at Lin Zhi and raised his eyebrows: "Did your mother draw Daddy?" Lin Zhi blushed a little, turned her head, and thought to herself that children's mouths are not strong, and everything will leak out.

Chu Fengrao nodded: "A lot." After confirming that it was his father, he began to settle accounts: "Dad, why did you come back just now? Mom said that you would come back after I learned a thousand words. Now I know 1,200 words. You didn't keep your promise!"

Chu Jing was a little surprised: "You have learned 1,200 words?"

The little guy nodded proudly: "Yeah."

Chu Jing was a little surprised. He knew from the letter that his son was smart, but he was too young so he thought he was just playing around. He didn't expect that he actually said he knew it. So he tested him right away and was surprised to find that he actually knew it.

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Your son is smart."

Chu Jing smiled and said, "Smart." He said to Chu Fengrao, "Daddy didn't keep his promise. As a punishment, can I study with you every day in the future?"

Chu Fengrao was very easy to coax, and he grinned and said, "Okay!" The next day, Chu Jing entered the palace, and then he was given his new official position, Guanglu Shaoqing, a fourth-rank official.

There wasn't much work to do in the new position, and His Majesty also intended to give Chu Jing time to rest. Chu Jing thus spent more time with his wife and children. He accompanied Chu Fengrao to study every day, and the little guy enjoyed it very much, calling him "daddy" all the time, acting like a little tail.

On July 10th of that year, Chu Rou in the palace gave birth to a son, the eighth prince.

The Third House was so excited that its tail was raised up, especially since His Majesty appointed Chu Rou as one of the four concubines and gave her a palace all to herself, which was a great honor for her.

But the reaction from the Marquis' Mansion was indifferent. They just sent gifts, which made the third house particularly unhappy. They felt that they were ignorant and could not write two "Chu" characters with one stroke. If Chu Rou was better, they would also benefit from it. Why couldn't they understand it!

Little did he know that the emperor gave Chu Rou a position entirely out of consideration for Chu Jing's face. However, deep down, he was unwilling to allow a minister like Chu Jing to have anything to do with the prince, and planned to let his son become a waste in the future.

Anyway, he has many sons and a crown prince, so it doesn't matter if he has one more piece of useless stuff.

But Chu Rou knew nothing about this. She still thought that she had a son and someone to rely on, so she sent a message to Chu Jing, asking him to take better care of her nephew in the future, hinting that he should help her son ascend to the throne in the future.

Chu Jing smiled and promised to "take good care of the Eighth Prince", but in fact it was not what Chu Rou thought. He was a loyal minister and would not be involved in other matters.

Time passed, and soon the Eighth Prince grew to be five years old. Chu Fengrao was also an eight-year-old boy, smart and spirited. Marquis Chu even thought of giving the title of Marquis to Chu Jing and asking for the title of Crown Prince for his grandson.

This year, His Majesty is preparing to tour the Liaodong area. In addition to the necessary officials, the Crown Prince and several princes will also follow.

Lin Zhi thought that the Crown Prince had gotten into trouble this time, and the Emperor and Empress were deeply shocked. Then the court was caught up in the factional struggle among the princes. Thinking of how Concubine Rou had been increasingly eager to get Chu Fengrao to enter the palace as a companion, she thought about it and decided to try to rescue him.

I don’t know what Chu Rou is thinking. His Majesty obviously won’t change the crown prince, but she still dreams of getting the Marquis’s Mansion to support her son.

Is this the inexplicable confidence of the future empress dowager in the original plot?
She asked a beggar to spread a nursery rhyme on the street, which roughly meant that something would happen to the prince.

The nursery rhyme spread widely, and even Chunlan could recite it, so it naturally spread to the palace. The Queen sent people to investigate but could not find the source. However, she would rather believe it than not, so she secretly contacted several ministers and suggested that the Crown Prince should be allowed to stay behind on this tour to supervise the country and train his abilities.

Your Majesty thought about it and decided to leave the Crown Prince in the capital and go on a tour with the men.

Lin Zhi smiled after hearing this. The queen was indeed a loving mother. The prince was safe now.

After finishing these things, she touched her nine-month-old belly and enjoyed Chu Jing's feeding. After many years, she was pregnant again and was only a few days away from giving birth.

It was not their initiative to have this child, because Chu Jing had witnessed her giving birth that year, and was traumatized by it. He was afraid that something might happen to her again, so he took birth control pills every time afterward, and she had been safe so far.

Unexpectedly, Fang quietly changed the medicine, which was a fertility-aiding medicine. Soon Lin Zhi became pregnant.

She was fine, after all, in her eyes, Fang was a person with a confused mind.

Chu Jing was very angry and told Lord Chu. Hence, ever since Lin Zhi was found to be pregnant, Fang had been confined to the yard until she gave birth safely.

Linzhi had no sympathy at all. It would not sound good if she put her hand into her son and daughter-in-law's room and told others about it.
