In September and autumn, the weather gradually cooled down.

At this time, Jiang Yu's belly was already bulging, and he looked like a bamboo basket, very bloated.

Jiang Yu looked in the mirror, touched his hand on his stomach, frowned and said, "It's ugly." ”

Yu Wenhong pinched somewhere on her chest, staring at it with firelight, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's a little fatter, but I think it's good." ”

Jiang Yu glared at him, stretched out his hand to pat off his claws, and scolded: "What kind of hooligan are you playing again!"

Yu Wenhong's tone also brought some dissatisfaction, and said: "I have been abstinent for so long, and now I won't even let the hooligans play tricks, you let me be a monk." After speaking, he raised his hand and pinched her ass, and the lust in his eyes became more and more vigorous, and he looked like he wanted to come up and overwhelm her at any time.

Jiang Yu said: "Your Majesty, don't forget what the imperial doctor said, the body of the concubine is really a little weak after the last miscarriage, and if you don't pay attention, it will be easy to have a miscarriage." The emperor thinks about it himself, whether your son is important or your sexual well-being is important. ”

Yu Wenhong snorted and said, "I see that all the words that the Imperial Doctor said were all guided by you to say this." ”

Jiang Yu said: "The emperor, don't wronged the concubines, think about whether the imperial doctor is willing to listen to you or listen to me, I just have that heart, and those imperial doctors don't have that courage." ”

Yu Wenhong said: "I forgive them and don't dare." ”

And at this moment, Wan Smug outside walked in with a somewhat anxious look on his face, and said: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border pass, the people in the north are attacking, and the border is urgent."

Yu Wenhong's face froze, his brows furrowed, he immediately stood up from the chair, and left in a hurry, without even having time to say hello to Jiang Yu.

Gu Yu, who was coming in with tea, saw Yu Wenhong, who was going out in a hurry with a solemn expression, and shouted: "Your Majesty, ......" Before he could say anything, the person had already walked away.

Gu Yu turned her head to look at Jiang Yu and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with the emperor?" She was afraid that the emperor would not be angry.

Jiang Yu said: "It's okay, it's none of my business, he has something to deal with." ”

The autumn of this year was really eventful. At least for Yu Wenhong, the passing year is not good.

First, the Qiang people in the north disturbed the border, and then the Goryeo people in Liaodong, the Qiang people in the west, and even the Nanzhao in the south, all of them collectively invaded the border of the Great Zhou as if they had discussed it, and the border passes were in danger for a while.

Yu Wenhong jumped like thunder, but he could only hurriedly increase his troops to resist the enemy. But Yu Wenhong has only been on the throne for a few years, and he has not let the four seas return to his heart, and there are not many capable generals who can be trusted in his hands.

Yu Wenhong thought of King Lin at this time, and ordered King Lin to lead his troops to resist the invasion of the people in the north. Linwang Yuwenxuan fell out with the emperor just a few months ago, and obviously he was not angry, but he said that he was sick and refused to lead the army. Liaodong originally belonged to the sphere of influence of the Cui family, and those generals in Liaodong were all protégés of the Cui family. Even the little Nanzhao invaded the southern border like a bamboo, and the border defense of the Great Zhou Dynasty seemed to be folded with paper, and it was broken when stabbed, so that the Great Zhou lost the city one after another.

Yuwenhong was busy with the transfer of troops and generals, sleepless for several nights, and the courtiers discussed countermeasures to control the enemy, in the case that Yuwenhong was not far away from the edict to lead the troops, and the Liaodong army did not listen to the dispatch, Yuwenhong's hands were not enough to resist the enemy everywhere, and finally had to send out the forbidden army in the capital to reinforce the border.

The forbidden army guards the imperial palace and is the last line of defense to protect the Son of Heaven, if even the forbidden army is sent out, the guards of the capital and the palace will inevitably be lax, in case of chaos in the capital, there is no way to defend it, and the safety of the Son of Heaven cannot be guaranteed.

Naturally, some ministers opposed the emperor's single-minded decision, and some even proposed to temporarily shelve the Cui family's crimes, reactivate Cui Jue, and order him to make meritorious contributions to the crime and re-take charge of the Liaodong army to meet the enemy Goryeo.

Yu Wenhong angrily rejected this proposal, and even proposed to re-employ the Cui family to be punished with the same crime as the Cui family. At the same time, he said that if the border is in danger, even if the Son of Heaven has thousands of soldiers and horses to protect him, what safety can he say, and then resolutely send more forbidden troops to the border pass for reinforcements.

However, when the border was embattled and the court was in turmoil, the news of the death of the Queen Mother came out of the palace at the same time.

The emperor was too busy to take care of it, and even the funeral of the Empress Dowager Cui could only be done simply, and he only stopped his soul for one day and ordered the civil and military officials to cry and mourn and hurriedly bury, which really did not have the atmosphere of half a national funeral.

For a month in a row, there was no good news from the border, and the capital was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere, and even Jiang Yu felt everyone's panic in the palace, as if the sky was about to fall.

I'm afraid that there are only Zichen Palace and Taiyu Divine Palace.

Jiang Yu was very sluggish after pregnancy, and she couldn't feel the atmosphere outside at all. Lin Yuan Bar may have lived too long, and he can see everything through, and nothing can affect him.

At this time, the two of them were sitting in the Taiyu Shrine playing chess, Lin Yuan pinched a chess piece and put it on the chessboard, looking at Jiang Yu, who was smashing it and thinking about the chess game while gnawing on the green plum, couldn't help but smile and said: "Niangniang's heart is wide." Aren't you worried about the emperor at all?"

Jiang Yu said: "What is there to worry about, if we are defeated, we will die together, and I am not a person who has not died, and there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

Lin Yuan said: "It's rare that a person as greedy as Niangniang can say such a thing." ”

Jiang Yu said: "Let me tell you Linyuan, although I am greedy for life, but when I should calmly go to righteousness, I am not afraid of death." The so-called death is heavier than Mount Tai, and there is also lighter than the feather, and I am the one who will be heavier than Mount Tai even if he dies. ”

Jiang Yu felt that these words were very heroic and fearless, forgetting life and death, and expressing his excellent spiritual qualities, and his face was a little proud.

Lin Yuan smiled and put another chess piece on the chessboard, and said: "What Niangniang said is right, in the heart of Poor Dao, Niangniang is indeed such a person." greedy for life, but not afraid of death. ”

Jiang Yu didn't bother to think about whether he was being sarcastic, so he took his compliment as if he was praising her.

Lin Yuan then said: "But Niangniang, have you noticed that there is no one missing in the palace recently? Since the death of the Queen Mother, it seems that you have never seen Concubine Shu. ”

Jiang Yu said "um" for a moment and said, "It's true that I haven't seen Concubine Shu for a few days, but I don't get along with Concubine Shu, and I don't like to see her on weekdays, so it's just right that she doesn't hang in front of my eyes." The ghost knows if she took advantage of the chaos to sneak out of the palace, maybe she eloped with someone. ”

Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly with a smile and stopped talking.
