They are all concubines, so of course they choose the future emperor.

Everyone present was stunned when they heard this.

Then, Zhu Yan hugged Li Chengyin, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Xiao Yin'er is a girl, she can't inherit the family line."

The little girl wrinkled her nose and said, "What is that incense? Why can't Yin'er do it? Auntie, you read a lot of books, can you tell Yin'er, please?"

Even though Jiang Wanyue was well-versed in history and current affairs, when faced with this question, he was unable to answer it for a while.

She thought about it and could only say this.

"Incense is... the family bloodline and foundation passed down from generation to generation from the ancestors. You see, your uncle and your maternal grandfather have the same surname, but Yin'er, you have your father's surname, so you cannot inherit your uncle's incense."

Li Chengyin tilted his head and thought about it seriously.

"Then why doesn't Yin'er just change her last name?"

Children are naive and say whatever they think. But these words scared Zhu Yan so much that her face changed and she quickly covered her mouth, making a few "Pooh" sounds.

"Children speak without restraint. How can you, child, say such things?"

Li Chengyin felt aggrieved and didn't understand where he had said anything wrong.

Jiang Wanyue touched her head.

"Yin'er is very sensible and filial, but think about it, if you change your surname to your uncle's, your father will be very sad!"

Li Chengyin pouted and muttered.

"Father, I am not the only one here. There is also my elder sister! And my eldest brother, third brother, and fourth brother!"

This child is really hard to appease.

Jiang Wanyue shook her head helplessly and continued.

"Although your father has many children, he loves every one of them. Don't say that again."

Li Chengyin nodded. She still had great faith in her aunt.

However, the little girl did not give up the idea.

She raised her hand and said, "Yin'er won't change her surname. When Yin'er grows up, she can have two children, one with the surname Li and the other with the surname Zhu. That should be fine, right?"

Zhu Yan was very puzzled: "Why do you keep nagging about this? When you grow up, you will get married, and your child should take your husband's surname!"

Li Chengyin looked shocked.

"All of them?"

She looked at all the adults in the room and saw that everyone nodded as a matter of course.

Jiang Wanyue didn't nod. She was trying very hard to hold back her laughter.

The little girl shook her head, looking confused.

"Why? I gave birth to a child. Why can't I decide? My elder sister said that father is the crown prince and will be the emperor in the future, and we will be princesses in the future. No one can surpass us."

Zhu Yan frowned slightly: "How could your elder sister say such a thing to you?"

Although the logic is correct, it is inappropriate to say it like this.

Xiao Yin'er is young, so you can say she speaks without restraint. But Li Chengyu is nine years old, a grown man, but he still speaks without restraint.

Zhu Yan wanted to educate her daughter, but was stopped by Jiang Wanyue's eyes.

"Yin'er is still young. She won't understand even if I tell her the truth."

Zhu Yan thought so too.

I’ll talk to my child about it slowly later!

Jiang Wanyue smiled and held Xiao Yin'er's hand.

"I can't answer Xiao Yin'er's question. You can look at it and think about it yourself. Maybe you can think of a solution in the future."

After saying that, she made a "hush" gesture.

"However, what we said today is a secret and cannot be told to anyone else! If it gets out, your mother, I, and Aunt Xiuchun will all be punished."

Li Chengyin widened his eyes and subconsciously put his hands behind his back.

"It hurts to be hit on the palm of your hand, Yin'er must not tell anyone!"

"Yin'er is so good!"

Jiang Wanyue praised her and then changed the subject to talk about something else.

Children have short memories and in two years they will probably forget what I said today.

No one took Li Chengyin's words seriously.

After a while, Zhu Yan brought her daughter back to Nianyun Pavilion. Jiang Wanyue stretched and asked the wet nurse to bring the child over.

The baby grows very fast. In just one month, he has grown a lot. His skin is no longer red, but white with a rosy glow.

Moreover, he can recognize people and grins when he sees Jiang Wanyue.

Jiang Wanyue remembered her mother's reminder, and even though it was inconvenient to be in confinement, she would still coax the child every day.

Perhaps it's the nature of mother and child, the little guy is particularly close to his mother.

Jiang Wanyue took off the hairpin from her hair and stretched out her hand.

"Give me a hug."

The nurse carefully handed the swaddling clothes to her master's arms.

This was Jiang Wanyue’s first time holding a baby. She was a little flustered and only managed to hold the baby steadily with the help of her wet nurse.

Jiang Wanyue looked at her son in her arms and her heart softened.

But it’s been a month and the child’s name hasn’t been decided yet, which is really upsetting.

Xiuchun was also watching from the side, and couldn't stop smiling.

Mi'er stood on the other side of Jiang Wanyue and couldn't help but ask.

"Does the young master really not need to hold the full moon banquet?"

Jiang Wanyue didn't even raise her head.

"We're moving in a couple of days. Wouldn't it be a hassle to hold a full-moon party at this time?"

Xiuchun also explained: "There are so many people coming for the third day bath. I heard that the Crown Prince... the eldest son didn't have such a big party back then. It's better to keep a low profile so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to the young master."

This is what Jiang Wanyue meant.

However, even if she wants to keep a low profile, others may not allow it.

About half an hour later, someone suddenly came from the palace and conveyed the emperor's oral order.

The emperor named his grandson Li Chengxu.

Jiang Wanyue was about to take her child to express her gratitude when she heard the messenger snap his hands.

"The emperor likes the young master very much and has ordered our family to bring him into the palace."

Jiang Wanyue frowned slightly and was secretly alert.

Why would the emperor allow someone to bring a child into the palace for no reason?

The emperor never showed any affection for his grandson.

Thinking of this, Jiang Wanyue glanced at the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict.

"What's your name, sir?"

"My last name is Feng."

The eunuch replied with a smile.

"Eunuch Feng, the emperor has issued an order, and we dare not disobey. However, the child is too young. I wonder if you can let me accompany him?"

Jiang Wanyue asked while considering her tone.

Eunuch Feng thought about it seriously and said: "What Liang Di said makes sense. After all, the young master is still young and cannot leave his mother. But the emperor has not summoned him, so Liang Di will have to prepare the carriage herself."

Jiang Wanyue breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she didn't refuse, that was enough.

She gave a few instructions to Xiuchun and the others, asking them to get the things the child needed, and at the same time went to the main courtyard to report to the Crown Princess.

As for the carriage, the butler was the first to run out to prepare it.

After a while, Jiang Wanyue, wearing a fox fur coat, got into the carriage with her child.

In addition to the two wet nurses, she also brought Xiuchun and Mier, and left Xing'er to guard Wutong Courtyard.

The carriage drove slowly along the street. When it arrived at the palace gate, the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict apologized to Jiang Wanyue.

"Please wait for a moment, Lady Liang. I will go in and explain the reason to the Emperor first."

Jiang Wanyue just nodded and waited in the carriage holding the child.

However, she didn’t know that not long after she left the palace, Li Ce suddenly came back.

The two missed each other just like that.
