Chapter 80: The Heir
"You say that the second brother is not fascinated by women, but by his talent?" Wang Pu looked incredulous. "What kind of background is she, and what kind of talent is she?"
Wang looked embarrassed, but said, "Daddy, don't ask again, it's a big secret." However, Daddy accompanied the official to Xiangyang this time, and the official should inform Daddy. ”
Wang Pu knows that this daughter has been righteous since she was a child, and after years of training by him, she is a model of a housewife and a mother of a country.
Since she said that she couldn't say it, Wang Pu believed it and didn't ask anymore, but she was even more confused.
What is the reason why a daughter can be so convinced of a little girl?
His wife couldn't help it and asked, "Is the second brother treating you well?" ”
Wang nodded. "Very good, and very respectful."
"Then why do you want to treat a ten-year-old girl and pass you and Chen?"
After listening to Pei Ge'an's analysis, Wang said softly: "Pei's relationship with officials is different from me and Chen's, she will not marry officials, and she will not teach her husband and children in the backyard......"
The queen mother was surprised and said: "How can there be such a reason in the world, if she doesn't teach her husband and children, does she still want to be an official?" ”
This was originally a joke, but I saw Wang nodding. "She's really going to be an official."
This sentence made the queen mother stunned, and Wang Pu's brows furrowed even tighter.
After a while, he asked: "Third sister, there are some things you don't say, and you don't ask for your father, but if you can say something, you can tell me." Is this Pei Shi incomparably talented? ”
Incomparable, the word is used very carefully. Wang thought for a while and said, "Yes! ”
Wang Pu took a deep breath and said, "Since she is irreplaceable, it is understandable that the second brother attaches so much importance to her. Then her talent should be different from what you have learned since childhood, but the strategy of the country? ”
Wang shook his head and said, "No, it's the study of strange skills." Iron knives, soap in the house, shampoo, toilet paper, are all made by Pei's. ”
"What else does she know?"
Wang looked at his mother and his curious brother, and kept silent.
The queen mother was a little displeased, but when she saw her husband's eyes, she pulled her son and walked out of the cabin. "Hmph, I don't hear it yet."
Seeing his mother and younger brother going out, Wang lowered his voice and said: "My daughter doesn't know much, she only knows that there are all kinds of poisons and medicinal powders in the house, and Pei Shi also told her daughter that she still knows a lot, including weapons that can make the Great Song Dynasty sweep the world."
The daughter didn't dare to speculate, but the officials and officials trusted her, which naturally made sense. Therefore, since the daughter can't help, she won't interfere, just help the officials take care of these things in the backyard. ”
Wang Pu was shocked in his heart, seeing that his daughter had a straight face, it didn't look like telling a lie, and he always felt that some links had not been cleared up.
When he first taught Zhao Dezhao last year, he noticed that this son-in-law was not simple, and he intended to help him promote it among Wenchen.
After a few months of contact, he found that this son-in-law was not simple, he was completely a demon, and he could be called full of wealth.
With an understanding of history, this son-in-law is stronger than himself in many places.
He felt doubtful and even contradictory, but it also strengthened his determination to go all the way to the dark.
Zhao Dezhao now has a good reputation among the ministers, and even his killing of Wang Santie was made by Wang Pu into a righteous act to eliminate harm for the people.
Zhao Dezhao's notes in class were spread all over the capital, and each note could be publicized by Wang Pu by various means as talented.
There may be disagreements about the content, but Zhao Dezhao's calligraphy is definitely touted by everyone.
All this is Wang Pu's means.
In the Chai Rong period of the Later Zhou Dynasty, Wang Pu was the prime minister, and his status among the ministers was absolutely outstanding.
Such a person makes a name for Zhao Dezhao, and it is difficult for Zhao Dezhao to become famous.
In the East Palace, he was also the first minister to accept the changes in the East Palace, and he was the first to use the soap for bathing, the soap for washing hair, and even the soft butt paper.
Originally, he thought that this was a secret team behind Zhao Dezhao, or Zhao Kuangyin's support.
But now, he realized that it was all done by a nine-year-old girl.
For a while, he was also a little confused, feeling that his age had lived to be a dog, and he had an unrealistic feeling about this matter beyond imagination.
"Fatherhood needs to think about ......"
From Nanyang to Xiangyang, in order to welcome this group of court officials, Nanyang Assassin Shi collected all the ships on the market.
However, this is an inland river, and there are not many ships, and most of them are cargo ships.
There were only two larger passenger ships, one arranged to transport the books of the East Palace, and the other was arranged to transport the families of several officials.
Wang Pu is high and bright, as long as he has a small boat, his family lives on it.
However, everyone still has a lot of thoughts about a small maid in the East Palace, rather than one of the two ladies living in a big boat.
Wang and his father did not say anything, and Chen was even more cowardly, and was willing to attach his small boat to this big ship to accompany him.
The officials couldn't understand it, and there was a lot of gossip, but Chen ignored anything, stayed in the cabin when he got on the ship, and never showed up again.
In fact, she fell ill as soon as she got on board.
Passing through Xuzhou, she originally thought that she would be received by her father, but her father never showed up again except for welcoming the minister that day.
Don't say that you sent someone to contact her, and you didn't even say a word to her.
It was still her stepmother Yao who was worried about her, so she sent her a few pieces of cloth and a box of Nanyang Dushan jade, and sent her.
This made Chen's heart sad, and he felt very painful to be born in this family. Especially seeing the Wang family and Hemeimei, it made her feel abandoned by the world.
Linglong, Linglong knew what her young lady was sick for, so she served her with care and comforted patiently.
When they were bought, it was when Chen and Zhao Dezhao were engaged, and Chen had just become filial piety.
I haven't seen the housemother, I only saw the Chen family living with his brother and sister-in-law, and the three brothers of the Chen family, including Chen's uncle, were all indignant when they mentioned this Chen family.
A person, in order to cultivate Buddhism, even ignores his family, which makes the Chen family dissatisfied with him.
If he hadn't married the official family, the official family would have asked him to come back to send his relatives, and he was afraid that he wouldn't even care if his daughter got married.
How can there be such a father in the world!
Soon after the boat sailed, Chen's face was pale, his chest was full of vomiting, and he was depressed for a while, and he couldn't bear it anymore, and the sky was dark.
The attendants accompanying the ship immediately called the imperial doctor, and after a while, a small boat carrying the imperial doctor aboard.
In this examination, Chen was not only seasick on the boat, but also because she was pregnant.
When the news spread, the forbidden army escorting on the shore immediately set off firecrackers to celebrate, and at the same time, immediately sent someone back to inform Zhao Dezhao.
Chen was taken to the big boat to rest, Pei Ge'an looked at Chen, who was still a little girl, and was surprised that she was pregnant so quickly.
This bastard, so accurate marksmanship!
The news reached the Wang family, but the family was not so happy.
The Wang family was already unhappy, but the queen mother's eyes kept staring at her stomach, which made her depressed.
"Although the Chen family is older than you, she is not as good as you, she is pregnant, you shouldn't be pregnant."
"Mother, can this kind of thing be compared? My daughter wants to get pregnant sooner. ”
"Do you want to vomit?"
Wang shook his head and said, "But my daughter hasn't come this month, and I don't know if it's ......."
The queen mother was immediately overjoyed and shouted: "Official, official, let the herald summon the imperial doctor, and let him also come over to show the third sister." ”
After a while, the imperial doctor was summoned, and for this examination, Wang was also pregnant, but she was in good health and did not have a strong reaction.
The Wang family was overjoyed, and immediately arranged for the forbidden army to release the whip and went to inform Zhao Dezhao.
On the big ship, Pei Ge'an was already slandering, and when he got the news, he was unhappy when he boarded.
She is too young to even have normal sexual intercourse, let alone have children.
But this bastard actually got both women pregnant.
The Chen family and the Wang family are both pregnant, and there is a beautiful and delicate person in front of them, Linglong, and the twins on Wang's side, be cautious, this bastard is going to enjoy all the blessings again.
It's a pity that there is no medicine that makes him wilt temporarily and then rise later, otherwise he must be given some.
She wouldn't admit that she was jealous.
Although Zhao Dezhao and the others set off four days later than the large army, their speed was not much worse.
The Central Plains, the land of a hundred battles, although the battles have been fought for many years, but the roads are better than those built in other places.
Wang Pu and they are not all carriages, and there are not enough horses, so they drag and procrastinate, walking sixty miles a day and less than a hundred miles.
When Zhao Dezhao and the others set off, the army had not yet arrived in Nanyang.
And more than 3,000 of them marched for an hour and 60 miles, and traveled for four or five hours a day, and when they arrived in Xuzhou, the army was on board.
On the boat here, Zhao Dezhao and they set off from Xuzhou again, and they could arrive in Nanyang in less than a day.
The soldiers who reported the news here met Zhao Dezhao and his party marching at a constant speed in Fangcheng.
Knowing that his two wives were pregnant, Zhao Dezhao was also satisfied and overjoyed.
In the original history, the eldest son Zhao Weizheng and the second son Zhao Weiji were born in 966.
Because of their young age, they were not liquidated by Zhao Guangyi, and when they arrived in the generation of Emperor Lizong of the Southern Song Dynasty, the throne returned to the descendants of Zhao Weiji.
"Give the order to go down, and hurry up. The day after tomorrow, we will arrive in Xiangyang with the army. ”
The horn whined, and when they heard the need to speed up, some soldiers were worried that the horses would not be able to stand it.
The Song Dynasty had only 140,000 horses in total, and all kinds of armies were conquest, transportation, and distribution, and horses were lacking everywhere.
The selection of personnel here in the forbidden army is very strict, but the horses are different. Whether it is a Liaodong horse, a Hetao horse, or a mule in the river, as long as it is useful, it cannot be picky.
Therefore, even if all the cavalry is full, marching 300 miles a day is already the limit.
Now Zhao Dezhao asked to arrive in Xiangyang the day after tomorrow, which is equivalent to marching 1,000 miles in three days, which is a little reluctant, and after going, I am afraid that half of the horses will have to rest for half a month to recover.
But when he heard that both ladies were pregnant, no one objected.
For a dynasty, having an heir to the royal family is more morale-boosting than a big victory.
