Chapter 0864: The Five Princes
Two years ago, when Nanzheng began to build the palace, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty wanted to prevent the Wei army from going south in Guanzhong, and also to facilitate the overseer army to enter Guanzhong in the north.
Not only did he build a fortress at several crossings in Hanzhong, but he also deliberately moved the Prime Minister's Mansion out of Nanzheng and placed a mansion on the plain north of Nanzheng.
What happened next is clear.
The Wei army in Guanzhong really made a big move.
It's a pity that because of the dangers of the road in Hanzhong, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty was confused by Cao Zhen's powerful feint attack at first.
In addition, Sima Yi went against the tide and the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty came to Hanzhong in person, so that the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty had to continue to keep most of the main forces in Hanzhong.
After the Battle of Xiaoguan, the Wei army in Guanzhong lost the strategic advantage of taking the initiative to attack for several years, and turned to the defense in an all-round way.
In addition, the emperor of the Han Dynasty was stationed in Hanzhong, so the Prime Minister's Mansion moved back to Nanzheng according to the rules of the Han Dynasty, located next to the palace.
After the banquet in the palace, more than 100 armor soldiers escorted the prime minister back to the prime minister's mansion, and it was late at night.
Huang Yueying, who had been waiting, helped Zhuge Liang to sit down on the chair, and then asked people to bring the decanting soup that had been prepared a long time ago.
She personally poured the soup and sent it to Zhuge Liang's mouth, complaining: "I don't know what my body looks like? I didn't come back earlier to rest, and I drank so much wine. β
"Happy," Zhuge Liang was drunk, his hands and feet were soft, and he was lying on the chair, "The ministers are here, the Son of Heaven advises me, if I leave the table halfway, what will others think?" β
"Then you shouldn't drink so much!" Huang Yueying served Zhuge Liang and drank the sobering soup, and said half-annoyed, "Don't die? β
"Drinking too much will hurt your body, and in order to prevent Zhao Zilong from drinking, Zhao Ma personally went to Longyou to watch. You don't look at your current body, do you really think you can still withstand the toss? β
"The two years of Dahan are not like the earlier years, is it necessary to be so cautious? It's the father of the Son of Heaven, tell the Son of Heaven, who would dare to persuade you to drink......"
Huang Yueying served Zhuge Liang and drank the sobering soup, and asked someone to wipe his face with a hot towel, while chattering.
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty was drunk, and when he heard it impatiently, he just "tsk" and reprimanded: "It's really a woman's opinion!" Looking at the people of the past dynasties, the monarchs and the ministers, the beginning is easy, and the end is difficult. β
"It is not easy for the big man to have the current situation, so he should be more cautious. As the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, if I dare to slack off for a point, believe it or not, up to the Son of Heaven and down to the officials, I dare to slack off for three points......"
Huang Yueying was worried that his body would not be able to bear it, so he said a few more words.
Unexpectedly, the person in front of him drank more wine, so he dared to scold himself with a mouth full of wine, and he couldn't help but bite his silver teeth at the moment.
It's just that when I saw his drunken appearance again, I had to hold back this breath for the time being.
At the same time, he secretly said in his heart, and see that you can still get drunk tomorrow? I'll settle accounts with you then!
She kept her hands on it, and changed a set of pajamas customized from the Nanxiang workshop for the prime minister, tossed for a long time, and finally helped him to rest on the couch.
Not long after lying down, there was a knock on the door, and at the same time, the maidservant shouted at the door: "Prime Minister, madam, the palace has sent someone over." β
When Huang Yueying heard this, she was about to turn over, but she didn't know that the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, who had been sleeping beside her and had not moved, was working faster than her, and suddenly a corpse!
"What about the people in the palace?"
The prime minister wrapped himself in a pajama and ran to the door barefoot and asked.
"In the antechamber."
"Quick, help me get dressed!"
The palace sent someone over at this time, I was afraid that something big had happened.
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty hurriedly put on his clothes and went out like a gust of wind.
The prime minister's wife sat on the couch and pondered a question:
Isn't he drunk?
In the front hall, before Zhuge Liang entered the door, he had already asked urgently: "What happened in the palace?" β
Xiao Huangmen hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Prime Minister, Your Majesty asks Madame to enter the palace quickly." β
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty was stunned.
Such a strange request......
"Prime Minister, after the banquet, the queen began to have abdominal pain, and the doctor said that the queen was about to give birth, so His Majesty wanted to invite his wife to the palace."
According to the rules, when someone is in labor, it is best to have a woman who has given birth to stay next to the delivery room.
One is that you can touch the blessings of these women giving birth safely.
The more important reason is that at a critical time, perhaps the experience of these women can help.
It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and it was already midnight at this time, and in a hurry, Adou's first thought was naturally Xiangfu's house.
After all, the palace and the palace are all one......
Of course, the most fundamental reason is that at this time, those who are qualified to enter the palace to accompany the delivery room, and at the same time can enter the palace immediately, one is the prime minister's wife, and the other is Zhang Xiahou's family.
Knowing all this, Zhuge Liang did not slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly returned to the backyard.
"Has Madame ever slept?"
The prime minister's wife, who was thinking about "SchrΓΆdinger was drunk", heard footsteps outside the house, and was about to get up to look, but she didn't expect that the prime minister had not yet arrived, but the voice had already arrived.
"Oh, the concubine has been awake, Your Majesty is in a hurry to find Ah Lang, right?"
Huang Yueying knew that her own Ah Lang had just finished the banquet in the palace, and it was still late at night, and the emperor suddenly sent someone over, and there was a chance that there was something urgent.
So how can she sleep in peace?
I saw that the prime minister of the Han Dynasty had rushed to her like a gust of wind:
"Madam, please pack up quickly and get ready to enter the palace."
"Into the palace?"
Huang Yueying raised her eyebrows, she actually had a lingering breath in her heart, and she was still thinking about picking a time in the past two days to talk to the prime minister of the Han Dynasty about tonight.
"When the queen is about to give birth, His Majesty sent someone over and asked his wife to enter the palace to accompany the delivery room."
Zhuge Liang explained urgently.
When Huang Yueying heard this, she knew that this matter could not be delayed, so she had to put down her mind first and hurriedly began to clean up.
After a while, the car of the prime minister and his wife was escorted by the armor and hurriedly drove towards the palace.
entered the palace unimpeded, and Zhang Xingcai's intermittent cries of pain were already heard in the delivery room.
Zhang Xiahou arrived one step earlier than the prime minister and his wife, and was guarding outside.
The little fat man walked around, not resting for a moment, muttering to himself, not knowing what he was reading, and looking very nervous.
Seeing Xiangfu coming, he hurriedly greeted him, "Xiangfu ......"
"Is the queen going well?"
In fact, the prime minister, who seemed to be unfazed in the past, rarely showed a somewhat anxious look on his face at this time.
And not just because this is the queen's second child.
The more important reason is that this is a child conceived in the land of Emperor Gaozu Longxing.
Coupled with the victory of Shang Xiaoguan, the child in the queen's womb was endowed with extremely important political significance.
It is so important that the prime minister of the Han Dynasty should attach great importance to it.
It can be said that this matter is a matter of national capital.
If there is really a case, like the queen's first child, the big victory that the Han has achieved with great difficulty over the years will have to be discounted.
What's more critical is that when the time comes, someone will really crook their mouths:
Didn't you say that this was the manifestation of Emperor Gaozu? Now it seems that even Emperor Gaozu can't protect Han Zuo.
That's disgusting.
"What's the hurry? Listening to the queen's voice, I'm afraid it's only been a short time since it started, how can it be so fast? β
Huang Yueying was so careful throughout the whole process from preparing for pregnancy to giving birth to Zhuge Zhan that she couldn't be more careful, and she was very impressed.
At this time, just listening to the queen's voice, you know that she still has enough strength.
Zhuge Liang knew that the palace had been prepared, but he didn't say anything, but turned around and went to the front hall, and asked people to call Guan Xing and Zhang Bao from the palace to personally lead the army to inspect the palace.
Even if there is a big thing, it should not be disturbed.
After arranging all this, look at the night leak, it is already the third watch, and it is not appropriate to open the palace door again.
So Zhuge Liang simply stayed in the front hall and waited for news.
It's just that tonight seems to be a particularly long night, and it's obviously the third watch, and the prime minister of the Han Dynasty came back and walked for an unknown number of laps, and then looked back, it was still the third watch.
Until the fourth watch, the night cold quietly rose, and the prime minister of the Han Dynasty suddenly covered his chest for some reason.
He was breathing suddenly, and at the same time, he felt his heart beat faster, and his vision became a little blurry.
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but sit down with the desk, took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes and half lay down for a while, and then came to his senses.
Only after a while, he began to cough again, until there was a faint fishy smell in his throat, and the coughing barely stopped.
Clearly feeling the changes in his body, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but sigh, he knew that his body was not as good as before.
In the past two years, I have stayed up late to deal with government affairs, and this situation will often occur in my body, which is really uncomfortable.
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty, who knew the mandate of heaven, showed a slight unwillingness on his face.
How good would it be if I had only entered the age of confusion at this time?
At least ten more years.
Not only can Feng Yong let go of his hands and feet without any scruples, but he can also test whether Jiang Wei is a half-body beauty.
It's not like now, I have to start preparing for what is behind me......
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty who was guarding the front hall thought of Liangzhou, then Guanzhong, and then Wu Guo......
In the confusion of thoughts, the east side unconsciously revealed the white of the fish's belly.
When the first rays of golden light pierced the sky, a loud cry pierced the palace.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, it's a little prince, and the mother and son are safe."
The delivery room was pushed open, and a female medical worker came out to report the good news.
When Adou heard this, he made a "ha" sound, and then slapped his palm: "Wow! What a son! β
Obviously, he kept watch all night, but Adou's spirit was very excited, and the eyes and nose on the chubby face were crowded, and he was about to break into it when he raised his feet.
"Your Majesty, no, there is still blood stained in it, you have to clean it up."
The female medical worker had already prepared and hurriedly stopped her.
Adou was stopped by the female medical worker, and he was not annoyed, and even paused very obediently.
After all, the name of Nanxiang Medical College is there, and now all the Han people know that Nanxiang Medical College has high midwifery skills.
If someone has ten children, twenty must be mentally prepared to pass the ghost gate.
Put it in Nanxiang Medical College, and people will be able to snatch back fourteen or fifteen from the ghost gate.
The remaining five or six, if Nanxiang Medical College can't do it, then it really deserves to be like this, and no one can blame it.
Adou stood on tiptoe and looked inside, shouting, "Queen, queen, are you okay?" β
Zhang Xingcai's faint voice came from inside: "Your Majesty Lao cares, the concubine has nothing to do, but she is a little tired." β
"That's good, that's good!"
Adou got Zhang Xingcai's response, rubbing his hands excitedly, and for a while he was walking around outside the delivery room, and he didn't know what to do.
Zhang Xiahou and Huang Yueying are women, but they can enter the delivery room in advance.
Zhang Xiahou looked at Adou, who was still stupidly spinning in circles, and couldn't help but remind:
"Your Majesty, I heard that the prime minister has been guarding the front hall last night and has never left the palace, and the queen gave birth to a dragon son, why didn't you send someone to inform the prime minister?"
"Huh? Yeah! I have forgotten this, come on! β
Adou was about to send someone, but suddenly he was blessed again, glanced at the delivery room, and continued, "Lead the way in front, and I'll go and tell my father in person." β
In the front hall, when the prime minister of the Han Dynasty felt that he couldn't support it, his mind was dizzy, and he was extremely sleepy, when suddenly a voice came from afar: "Father, father!" β
Zhuge Liang was suddenly awakened again, he was excited, and quickly stood up and looked at the source of the sound.
I saw Adou coming to this side of the path regardless of etiquette.
"Your Majesty, has the Queen ever been safe?"
"Peace, peace!"
It was clear that it was the early morning in Hanzhong at the end of August, but instead of being hot, it was a little cool, which made people feel very comfortable.
But Adou was sweating profusely: "Father, the queen gave birth to a prince, it's a prince, father!" β
"Really? That's great! β
Zhuge Liang was overjoyed, and the exhaustion all over his body was gone.
"Father, let's go, let's go."
Adou took Zhuge Liang's hand and urged again and again.
The emperor and the prime minister came to the delivery room again, and the inside was finally cleaned up and could be entered.
Zhuge Liang is a father, but there is no need to be taboo.
After the two went in, they saw Huang Yueying holding the child and coaxing, while Zhang Xiahou was sitting on the edge of the couch, holding a bowl in his hand, feeding the queen soup.
Just smelling this taste, Zhuge Liang knew that this was ginseng soup.
Because when he deals with government affairs at night, he often relies on ginseng soup to refresh himself.
Adou first looked up at the couch and called softly, "Queen? β
Zhang Xingcai's hair was still a little wet, and when he saw a chubby face, a smile appeared on his tired face: "Your Majesty, it's a son." β
"Yes, yes, I know, it's the son, and it's also the prince of our Han Dynasty."
Adou hurriedly responded.
It has to be the crown prince, that's indisputable.
It should be conceived by the spirit of Gaozu, conceived by the victory of Xiaoguan, and born by recovering Liangzhou and expanding the territory.
The most important thing is the eldest son, who dares to say that he is not the prince?
Zhang Xingcai listened, and his face, which was originally full of tiredness, suddenly exuded brilliance.
Seeing that Zhang Xingcai was fine, Adou carefully retracted his head and looked at the child in Huang Yueying's arms.
This is the child that he and the queen have been looking forward to for nearly ten years.
He took it carefully from Huang Yueying's hand, looked at it happily for a long time, and then looked at the prime minister of the Han Dynasty:
"Father, why don't you give it a name?"
Zhuge Liang saw that the queen and the prince were safe, and a smile appeared on his face, and when he suddenly heard Adou's words, he hesitated slightly: "This...... Unruly. β
Although the first emperor created a foundation and did not have so much red tape, after all, he was a prince, as a minister, how could he trespass?
"The father, that is, His Majesty is like a father, since he is like a father, why is the name of the father not in accordance with the rules?"
Zhang Xingcai, who was lying on the couch, said, "The father is extremely intelligent, and it is a blessing that this child can be named by the father." β
"Yes, yes, the first emperor created a foundation, and his father prospered the Han Dynasty. If there is no emperor, the Han Zuo will be cut off, and if there is no father, the Han family will be difficult to prosper. Now the emperor is not there, but he only admires his father. β
"It's also the most appropriate thing to give Gorou a name for his father last night, who dares to say that it's not in accordance with the rules?"
Adou's "Heel Bug" skill is activated.
The prime minister of the Han Dynasty naturally knew that things were naturally not as simple as Adou said, and it was obvious that the emperor and queen were paving the way for this child.
However, Zhuge Liang didn't have much objection in his heart.
After all, in the past nearly a year, the political overtones given to this child are too unusual.
So he stopped refusing, muttered for a while, and then spoke:
"The Book of Poetry Daya" has a saying: Born with a people, his fate is a traitor. There is no beginning, and there is an end. Chen, sincerity, how about taking the word Chen? β
"The first emperor has the name of benevolence and righteousness, and he treats his subordinates with sincerity, and only hopes that the five princes can inherit the remnants of the first emperor and let the Han Dynasty continue."
This remark is almost an indication of attitude.
Adou Yixi was about to speak.
Zhuge Liang looked at the emperor again, and said meaningfully: "Your Majesty, the Han Dynasty can be regarded as having a good beginning now, and I just hope that Your Majesty will remember this sentence in the future." β
Adou was stunned.
Is there no beginning, but there is an end?
