In mid-May, good news came from the north -- our army was defeated on the desert north of the country. Hal army, and will be only a pound. Hal was captured alive. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In his letter, Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department, said -- In this war, our army lost more than 40,000 soldiers, about 30,000 wounded, and captured more than 50,000 enemy troops. He also said that he had begun to return to the court and would arrive in the capital in about 20 days.

At this point, this war that lasted for half a year finally came to an end.

The emperor was very happy, and immediately announced this news to the world.

The news soon reached Zhang Zhaoyi.

The news was conveyed by Zhang Zhaoyi's personal palace maid Shen Hu, and Zhang Zhaoyi had no expression on her face after hearing it. She silently took a sip of the fresh milk from her cup before she said, "Well, I see." ”

Guo Mao's return to the capital may not be a good thing for Zhang Zhaoyi, so Zhang Zhaoyi is not happy.

She is about to give birth in two months, and she doesn't want to receive a new task at this juncture, nor does she want anything to happen at this time.

"Northern Xinjiang has won the battle, isn't Zhaoyi happy?" Shen Hu asked in a low voice.

She knew the relationship between Zhang Zhaoyi and Guo Mao, the secretary of the military department.

"Of course I'm happy to win, but ...... Forget it, let's not talk about it. Zhang Zhaoyi said quietly.

Shen Hun quickly understood what she meant, and whispered, "But once he finishes the battle, he will inevitably have to return to Beijing." ”

"I know, that's why I'm preoccupied." Zhang Zhaoyi looked out the window and said.

Shen Hu was relieved: "Now that you are about to give birth, he must be very aware of the importance of this child to your position in the harem in the future, so the slave guesses that he should not embarrass you at this time." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi shook her head and said, "I'm just a pawn for them, and they may not take care of me and this child if the situation is urgent." ”

"Recently, everything in the DPRK and China has been safe, nothing should happen, Zhaoyi should not think too much." Shen Hun hurriedly comforted.

Zhang Zhaoyi didn't say anything more, but she was still a little apprehensive in her heart.

She reached out and touched her round belly, looked up at the window again, and closed her eyes silently.

A palace maid walked in quickly and said to Zhang Zhaoyi, "Report to Zhaoyi, Your Majesty is here." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi immediately opened her eyes and asked Shen Hun to help her to the door to greet her.

The emperor walked slowly towards her and said with a smile: "You are inconvenient, so you don't have to go out to greet her." ”

Since the leg injury had just healed, the emperor walked relatively slowly.

"The concubine is still two months old, how dare she put up a stand in front of Your Majesty now?" Zhang Zhaoyi said with a smile.

The emperor reached out to help her, and the two walked slowly towards the house.

The two have not had sex since the emperor broke his leg bone, but the emperor still often visits her.

Zhang Zhaoyi knows very well that he still occupies a very important position in the emperor's heart.

She is deeply grateful for that. After all, this proves that she is not shallow.

The emperor sat down on the chair, looked at Zhang Zhaoyi's belly, and said: "Your belly is sharp, the reaction is not too big, and you like to eat sour, it is very likely that you are a boy." ”

Zhang Zhaoyi immediately smiled happily at him, snuggled up and said, "What if it's a daughter in my life?" Is Your Majesty going to be punished? ”

The emperor smiled and scratched her nose and said, "How do you want to punish me?" ”

"The concubine hasn't thought about it yet."

"Anyway, I like to give birth to boys and girls."

Zhang Zhaoyi smiled and said, "Then the concubine won't punish you." The concubine asked the kitchen to cook a pot of elbow bone corn soup, would your majesty want to drink some too? ”

The emperor wanted to accompany her more, so he said 'um'.

Zhang Zhaoyi immediately asked the kitchen to bring the elbow bone corn soup.

She personally filled the soup for the emperor, and said with a smile while pretending: "Your Majesty's injury is just right, it is suitable to drink more bone broth to make up for it." ”

The emperor took it with a smile and glanced at Gonggong Zhang, who was standing aside.

Father-in-law Zhang immediately took out a small silver medal and came forward to test the soup for poison.

After making sure that the soup was not poisonous, the emperor took it up and drank it.

After drinking a bowl, the emperor put the bowl down, and no matter how Zhang Zhaoyi persuaded him, he refused to drink it anymore.

"We won the battle, and the military department will soon return to the court, do you know this?" The emperor suddenly asked casually.

Zhang Zhaoyi paused for a moment and smiled: "Really? That's great. ”

The emperor's eyes were fixed on Zhang Zhaoyi's body for about half an hour, and then he looked away, and there was no expression on his face.

Zhang Zhaoyi suddenly felt inexplicably worried.

Will he see that she has a relationship with Guo Mao?

Probably not, otherwise how could he be so patient with his character?

Thinking like this, Zhang Zhaoyi relaxed again. She smiled and digressed the subject.

Over there, Queen Jingzhuang felt very stuffy after waking up from her lunch break, so she instructed her to make her a cup of honey and ginger juice.

While waiting for the arrival of honey and ginger juice, Queen Jingzhuang's heart became more and more stuffy, and she hurriedly asked Liu Ying to help her back to the bed and lie down.

"Do you want to ask the Imperial Doctor to take a look?" Liu Ying asked with concern.

"It shouldn't be a big deal, let's stay for a while." Empress Jingzhuang waved her hand.

But after she lay down, she felt not only stuffy, but also vaguely painful, so she hurriedly reached out to rub it.

What's going on? Empress Jingzhuang couldn't help but ask herself.

Liu Ying saw that Empress Jingzhuang's face was wrong, so she said in a serious tone: "Queen Mother, let's ask an imperial doctor to take a look?" ”

"Is my face ugly?" Empress Jingzhuang asked.

Liu Ying nodded heavily.

Queen Jingzhuang stroked her forehead and said, "Okay, then let's go and pass Dr. Zhou." ”

Just as Liu Ying was walking out, a palace maid walked in hurriedly and said to Liu Ying: "There is a person who wants to see the queen's mother, this is the letter he submitted." ”

Empress Jingzhuang hurriedly opened the letter and read it.

It was a letter from a stranger who said that he had been asked by a man to hand her a letter and to make sure that she met with him.

The address he left was: outside the small gate on the west side of the imperial city.

Empress Jingzhuang stared at the letter for a while before saying to Liu Ying: "You go and ask first, see who he is and whose entrustment he is." ”

"Yes." Liu Ying immediately walked out quickly.

About two quarters of an hour later, Liu Ying came back and attached to the ear of Empress Jingzhuang and said, "It is King Ling's person, and the letter is also handwritten to you by King Ling himself." The slave and maid asked him to give the letter to the slave and maid, but he refused to do so, saying that he had ordered the king to give the letter to you in his own hands. ”

It turned out to be a letter from him.

What did he want to tell her?

Queen Jingzhuang suddenly seemed to have knocked over the five-flavor bottle.

"It's not convenient for me to see him at this time." Empress Jingzhuang frowned.

The palace is full of the eyes and ears of the imperial concubine and Zhang Zhaoyi, and whenever she has an unusual move, she will attract their attention.

"Why don't you let him disguise himself as his father-in-law to meet you?" Liu Ying proposed.

Empress Jingzhuang felt that this method was feasible, so she said, "Well, let's do it according to your method." ”
