The Ruyi courtyard was quiet, and there was not even the sound of insects on this hot day.

Po came back from outside, and when he walked into the house, he consciously lowered the sound of his footsteps. When I entered the house, I smelled a faint fragrance, which was a spice that Yuchen had prepared himself. This fragrance now just overshadows the smell of medicine.

Ah Bao walked into the house lightly, saw Yuchen asleep, and gently retreated. In the courtyard, Ah Bao saw Mama Gui and asked, "Mama, is the concubine feeling better today?"

On the night when Yuchen received a few boxes of gifts from Yan Wushuang, he had a nightmare, and then developed a high fever. Yuchen usually looks soft and weak, but he is actually in good health. Of course, the main reason is that she has a good foundation, and she has paid great attention to maintenance over the years, and the number of times she gets sick is very small, even if she is sick, just drink some medicine. But this time it didn't work as usual, and it didn't get better after lying in bed for half a month.

Mama Gui said: "Niangniang's main thing is heart disease, heart disease does not go, this disease is difficult to heal." The main reason why Yuchen is not well is because she often has nightmares, dreaming that the old lady and Han Jingyan angrily reprimanded her, saying that she is the sinner of the Han family. In this situation, it's no wonder that the disease can be cured!

Ah Bao's face is not very good-looking, and it is too much to ask her to say that her father. It's not good to dig someone's house, but to dig up my grandfather's house. It's strange that my mother knows that she can stand it well. Just let her blame Yan Wushuang, Ah Bao didn't have the guts.

Mama Gui said a lot to Bao. Before the two finished speaking, Shi Xiang walked out of the house and said softly: "County Lord, Mama, Niangniang is awake." ”

Hearing this, Po hurried into the house. Seeing Yuchen leaning against the head of the bed with a pale face, Ah Bao called out very distressedly: "Mother......"

Yuchenqiang laughed and said, "My mother is just infected with the wind cold, Ah Bao don't worry." ”

Ah Bao's eyes were red: "What about a minor illness? I have taken medicine for more than ten days and still not recovered." Speaking of this, Po's tears fell.

Yuchen took the handkerchief and gently wiped Ah Bao's tears: "Silly girl, I said that it was just a cold, and it wasn't a serious illness, why are you crying?"

Ah Bao persuaded: "Mother, I know everything, don't hide it from me anymore." Mother, things have already happened and there is no way to change them, so don't think about it anymore. "It doesn't help to think about it.

Yuchen's face changed slightly, and he said, "How do you know? Who told you?" Mama Gui is not the kind of person with many tongues.

Ah Bao sat up straight and said, "Dad dug up the Korean Mansion and dug up a lot of treasures, and everyone in the capital knows about it." Mother, it's wrong for your father to be angry, but you can't sulk yourself. ”

Speaking of this, Ah Bao's tears came again: "Mother, you must be good." If you have a case, my brother and I will become motherless children. It is said that a motherless child is like a grass, mother, I don't want to be a weed that no one hurts. ”

When Yuchen heard this, he hugged Ah Bao and said, "Ah Bao doesn't cry, it's all mother's, which makes Ah Bao worried." ”

Mama Gui glanced at Ah Bao with great appreciation, the county lord's strategy of mourning soldiers was used very well. I believe that my master will get better soon.

As Mama Gui thought, Bao's crying made Yuchen feel distressed. On the same day, I began to cooperate with the doctor, worked hard to drink medicine, and tried to relax as much as possible. Within two days, I was more than half cured and was able to get out of bed.

Yan Wushuang went to see Yuchen once when he was sick, but later knew the reason for Yuchen's illness and didn't go to see it again. If you want Yan Wushuang to say, Yuchen is completely hypocritical. Most of the things that were dug up were forcibly seized by the ancestors of the Han family. When things fall into his hands, it's nothing more than a cycle of cause and effect. But he didn't have the patience to tell Yuchen about this.

Meng Nian lifted the mahogany curtain and said with a happy face: "Lord, everything has been moved off the ship, and it will be sent to the capital in a few days." "I've been waiting for so long, I'm afraid of some accidents, but now it's okay, it's finally here.

Yan Wushuang said: "Yunqing and Han Yuxi have always been eyeing this batch of treasures, and they can't take things lightly until they enter the palace. "With such a huge amount of money, Yan Wushuang will not hand it over to anyone else, so he sent his henchmen to wait at the port, and as soon as the things arrived at the port, they were immediately unloaded and transported back to the capital.

At the beginning, Yan Wushuang made such a decision, Meng Nian was against it, he thought that sending people with such fanfare was tantamount to telling the whereabouts of the treasures in the dark.

Meng Nian was not very relieved in the first place, and when he heard Yan Wushuang's words, he became more and more worried: "Lord Wang, don't send some people anymore!" As for the use of this batch of treasures, they have already thought about it, and they can't make the slightest mistake.

Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "No, two thousand elite soldiers are enough to escort you." In addition to these elite soldiers, Yan Wushuang also secretly arranged a lot of people.

Ah Qian shouted loudly outside: "Lord Wang, there is news from the south of the Yangtze River that Yunqing has sent 300,000 soldiers and horses to prepare to attack Fujian. "The news is not classified, so it doesn't matter if anyone else knows.

Meng Nian was a little surprised: "If the peace talks don't go well, Yunqing will send troops to attack Fujian?" This became too fast.

Yan Wushuang said: "Yunqing sent troops, I'm afraid it was prepared with both hands. If Qiu Ye compromises, then the peace talks will continue, and if Qiu Ye does not compromise, then fight. "All the states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River have basically been subdued, and Yunqing can now free up his hands to solve the problems in Fujian.

Meng Nian nodded and said, "Lord Wang, Yun Qing put on this position, Qiu Ye is afraid that he will compromise." "Qiu Ye didn't want to start a war in the first place, otherwise he wouldn't be slimy. Now Yunqing Chen has 300,000 soldiers on the border of Fujian, and it is difficult not to compromise.

Yan Wushuang said, "Qiu Ye will definitely compromise. "There's no suspense about this at all.

Meng Nian thought of one thing, and was in a very bad mood: "Qiu Ye and Lei Peng's two people are like fire and water, and now that he has surrendered to Yunqing, he will definitely send troops to assist Yunqing in attacking Guangdong in the future." "Qiu Ye's father died in the hands of Lei Peng, and the two have this unrivalled hatred.

Yan Wushuang said: "The remaining four provinces will be subdued by Yunqing in two years at most, and we can't stop this." "When the time comes, he and Yunqing will be one south and one north.

Meng Nian said: "There is not much time left for us. "After Yunqing unified the south, the next target must be the capital. This battle is unavoidable.

Yan Wushuang snorted and said, "Don't worry, Yunqing won't send troops to attack the capital in five years." "In recent years, the northwest has been fighting every year, not to mention that all the family funds have been wiped out, and the number of casualties is also very large. With Yunqing and Han Yuxi's temperament, they must have recuperated first, and then accumulated enough capital to attack the capital.

Meng Nian said: "Five years is also very fast. "They must now restore the economy and expand their army as soon as possible.

Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to the arrival of this day. "Fighting to the death with Yunqing and Han Yuxi must be a great joy in life.

Meng Nian was silent.

Du Zheng was stationed in Gyeongju with 150,000 soldiers and horses, which was only more than 30 miles away from Fujian.

After the army was stationed for two days, Cui Mo said impatiently: "Talk about it, fight if you can't talk about it, grind and chirp." "Grumpy people want to solve things as soon as possible, and it's the most uncomfortable to be able to get up or down.

Du Zheng said with a smile: "The prince asked us to be stationed here, just to deter Qiu Ye and his party, not to really start fighting. "If you want to fight, you have already beaten it.

Cui Mo is not against the peace talks, although he wants to make more military achievements, but he also knows that if the peace talks are successful, he can avoid large-scale casualties: "Fujian is solved, and the next step should be to fight Liangguang and Yungui, right?"

Du Zheng shook his head and said, "Depending on what the prince means, it is estimated that it will be until next year." ”

Cui Mo was a little puzzled, and asked, "Why wait until next year? It's only the end of July, and there are still nearly half a year to go!"

Du Zheng said: "This time we have suffered more than 300,000 casualties, and we will definitely recruit again." In addition, the terrain of Yungui is complex and full of miasma, and if you want to attack them, you must be well prepared, otherwise you will definitely suffer a big loss. As for Jiangnan's follow-up problems, Du Zheng felt that it was not necessary for Yunqing to deal with it, and it would be enough to send a capable and trustworthy official over.

After finishing business, the two gossiped again. Cui Mo said: "Yu Cong accepted two concubines, do you know about this?"

Du Zheng said: "I know." The two women in Yu Congna are for the sake of the heirs. This adopted child is not as good as his own child, and it is good that he can figure it out. ”

Cui Mo was very surprised and asked, "Is the rumor true?, is the child really raised?" He also heard the rumor, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Du Zheng nodded and said, "It's true, Yu Cong admitted it personally." In fact, it doesn't matter who is adopted, but the problem is that the biological parents of the two children are still there. What do you say when the child grows up, and the biological parents come to the door to recognize it?" "Even if you don't want to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, the biological parents will be estranged in the end."

Cui Mo frowned and said: "It's right that Yu Cong wants his own child, but this matter should always have the consent of his sister-in-law! Yu Cong quietly accepted two concubines, and when the sister-in-law found out about it, she would definitely make trouble, and it would be ugly then. ”

Du Zheng shook his head and said: "When the child is born, what can she do if she makes a fuss? Can she still be separated?" Du Zheng has a great opinion of the Lin family, and you will be above board when you adopt a child, just because her careful thinking makes it so complicated.

Cui Mo said: "If you want me to say, Yu Cong himself should be half responsible for this matter." He was tougher at the beginning, and there would be no future. Now that I regret wanting my own children, I should also talk to my sister-in-law about it, instead of cutting it first and then playing it. ”

Du Zheng said: "It is impossible for the Lin family to agree to let Yu Cong take a concubine. Rather than this, it is better to wait for the two women to give birth to a child, and then go to the mother and keep the child, I believe she has nothing to say. "If the Lin family is really a general knowledge, she should arrange this matter herself. The heir is so important, but the Lin family is like a child's play.

Cui Mo shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't talk about this." "It's hard for a clean official to cut off family affairs, so he should leave this matter alone.

Du Zheng changed a pleasant topic: "I heard that a subordinate gave you a beauty, and you almost broke someone's leg, is this true?"

Cui Mo didn't care about Du Zheng's quip, and said: "It's true, if I don't be ruthless to him, this matter will be endless." If your sister-in-law hears any rumors, she will definitely have to make me kneel on the washboard again. "Others are afraid of being said to be afraid of their wives, but Cui Mo has never tabooed this. His wife has suffered so much with him, and she has taken care of the housework for her to have children and raise children, so it is also appropriate to let her go.

Du Zheng laughed, and after laughing, he said, "You are not tempted at all when you look at those beauties?"

Cui Mo said with a straight face: "What do you want? Those women are willing to serve us, not because of our people, but because of our current status and power. If we were still soldiers in Yucheng, would they look at us squarely? I'm afraid that if we look at them more, we will feel that they have been defiled. "Although Cui Mo is a big man, he knows what is most important to him.

Seeing this, Du Zheng immediately smiled and said, "Lao Cui, you are very right. For your words, let's have a drink tonight. "The two of them have a good amount of alcohol, and you won't miss a drink with a drink.

If Yuxi heard Cui Mo's words, he would definitely be very emotional, if the people under Yunqing's hands all had the same idea as Cui Mo, it would save a lot of trouble.

Han Jianming and Qiu Ye talked for half a month, and the two reached a preliminary consensus. However, it was Yunqing and Yuxi who made the final decision in this matter, so Han Jianming immediately sent the agreement to Yunqing and Yuxi.

Six days later, Han Jianming received a reply from Yunqing. Qiu Ye got the news and immediately came over and asked Han Jianming, "What did King Pingxi say?"

Han Jianming handed Yunqing's letter to Qiu Ye and said, "Look at it for yourself!" Yunqing's reply made Han Jianming breathe a sigh of relief.

Qiu Ye spread out the letter and was a little speechless when he glanced at it. Yunqing's reply was only one sentence: 'Everything is subject to the opinion of the princess.' ’

Returning the letter to Han Jianming, Qiu Ye couldn't help but smile and said, "I heard that King Pingxi was afraid of guilt, but I didn't expect it to be true. "He was skeptical before, and he would have believed it.

Han Jianming disagrees with this statement: "The princess is in charge of this peace talk. "The prince is in charge of military affairs, and the princess is in charge of government affairs. If there is any conflict, the two of them sit down and discuss it together. If you can negotiate well, everyone will be happy. The negotiation is not good, as long as it is not a big deal, under normal circumstances, Yuxi will back down.

Qiu Ye didn't argue with Han Jianming, and said: "When the king of Pingxi wins this world in the future, a marquis of your Han family will not be able to escape, and you can be regarded as seeking benevolence." "I'm also optimistic about Yunqing's future, otherwise he wouldn't have surrendered!

Han Jianming shook his head and said, "It's still early!" Han Jianming wanted the duke, but he also knew that it depended on what Yunqing and Yuxi meant.

Qiu Ye smiled and said: "Princess Pingxi was taught by you, and you didn't give a single marquis, which is too chilling." "Han Jianming abandoned his title and abandoned his family business and clansmen, and based on this alone, Yunqing and Han Yuxi couldn't treat him badly. Not to mention, Han Jianming has done so many things for their husband and wife over the years.

Han Jianming was a little surprised, and asked, "Where did you hear this?"

Seeing this, Qiu Ye asked, "Isn't it true?"

Han Jianming said with a smile: "Of course it's not true. The princess has come to this day because of her own efforts. ”
