Chapter 554: A Last Resort
The sky was slightly cool, and Fu Lie walked out with Xue Miaomiao in his arms.
Let Yang Liu, who was at the door, send Xue Miaomiao to rest.
He first said to Wei Guifei and Jiang Yuanhan: "The child and Qingqing are fine for the time being. ”
Wei Guifei breathed a sigh of relief, and then Lu Tao sent Sun Junming out, although the two stable women were tired, but the faces of the two of them were pale.
They delivered hundreds of children, but for the first time they saw someone disemboweled.
Pei Yi, who was standing at the door, noticed the strangeness of the two stable women and looked at them twice.
At this time, Fu Lie said to him: "Thank you Pei Gongzi this time." ”
Pei Yi shifted his gaze and happened to meet Fu Lie's bottomless cold eyes.
Looks like he's under suspicion.
Three days later, Wen Qingzhu slowly woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Mother Ye guarding beside her, carefully holding the swaddling clothes in her hands and gently coaxing them.
"Blessings." Wen Qingzhu shouted in a slight voice.
Mother Ye was stunned, and then carefully put the child beside Wen Qingzhu.
"Miss, the little master is here."
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways and saw a crumpled little face, which was sleeping.
I don't know if it's sense, the child struggled twice, and then opened his eyes.
Looking at these pair of dark and round eyes, Wen Qingzhu was stunned.
This kid ......
"Fu'er." Wen Qingzhu almost muttered to himself, these eyes were clearly Fu'er's eyes.
The child looked at her, not knowing whether it was too uncomfortable or hungry, and began to cry.
Mother Ye hurriedly hugged Nianfu: "Miss, don't worry, although the little young master was born prematurely, but Imperial Doctor Gan said that it is good to recuperate, and the little young master can recover slowly." ”
Wen Qingzhu didn't answer, his eyes only looked at the swaddling clothes tightly.
Mother Ye was very distressed, and asked the nurse to come in to feed the child, not letting the child leave Wen Qingzhu's sight.
About two quarters of an hour later, the well-fed child fell asleep deeply, and the nurse handed the child to Mother Ye, turned her head and withdrew.
Mother Ye put the child next to Wen Qingzhu: "Miss, don't worry, the little master has always been here." ”
"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu finally reacted, but there were still two confusions about diffraction.
After resting for two days, Wen Qingzhu's complexion was much better.
But compared to other women who give birth to children normally, Wen Qingzhu's most serious problem is the wound on her stomach.
At noon that day, when Nianfu fell asleep, Wen Qingzhu swept the house and found that only Mother Ye and the nurse were there.
They have not been seen.
"Mother Ye, where is the green pottery? And what about Miao Miao? Wen Qingzhu felt strange.
Mother Ye's face stiffened, but she quickly returned to normal: "The girl from Green Tao went to take care of Yang Dong, he was injured a little, as for Miss Miao Miao, she was taken away before, and she was also injured a little, and now she is still recuperating and has not been able to come over." ”
Wen Qingzhu smiled and didn't ask any more.
Until late at night, Lu Ce suddenly appeared in front of her bed.
Wen Qingzhu's spirit has improved a lot in the past few days, so when someone comes, it is still a familiar atmosphere.
She lay still, opened her eyes and looked at the figure outside the bed curtain and said, "Bingning's matter has not been resolved, okay?" ”
"It was solved three days ago, but there is news I think you should know, the emperor decreed that Fu Lie should go to calm Rouran and set off tomorrow."
Wen Qingzhu's heart sank, she wanted to move, but she knew very well that she couldn't move now.
After being silent for a long time, Wen Qingzhu suddenly asked, "So he entrusted me to you?" ”
After a long time, Lu Ce replied with a yes word.
That night, Wen Qingzhu couldn't sleep well.
In the early morning of the next day, the people who came over were still Mother Ye and the nurse.
Looking at the sky outside the window, it was still very early, Wen Qingzhu asked Mother Ye, "Where is Master Hou?" Why didn't he come to see the kids? ”
"Master Hou...... I've seen it, the emperor has something to hand over to him in the past few days, so he didn't have time to come over during the day, but he came over after the young lady fell asleep. ”
Mother Ye explained like this, and handed a bowl of tonic medicine to Wen Qingzhu: "Miss, don't worry, Master Hou will come back soon after dealing with those things." ”
"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu took the medicine bowl and drank it all.
She lost too much blood during childbirth, so now in addition to her daily diet, she has to drink a lot of decoctions to replenish qi and blood.
But after drinking, she was a little tired and couldn't help but want to sleep.
Mother Ye took the medicine bowl and put it down, then moved Wen Qingzhu's pillow and let her lie down slowly to rest.
"Miss is so good to give birth, and when the confinement is over, everything will be fine."
Wen Qingzhu closed his eyes, and it was Jiaguguan who resisted Rouran, and Ganzhou was behind him.
Compared with the Xiongnu and Xianbei, the living environment of Rouran is even worse.
They are almost the easiest of all enemies to deal with, and they will come to attack Jiagu Pass in the early winter every year.
Because they will either starve to death or die in battle.
The natural defensive advantages of Jiagu Pass make it difficult for Rouran to attack directly, but although Rouran is a plate of scattered sand, the battle of the outlaws is by no means so easy to deal with.
Before Emperor Shunde, Ganzhou and Rouran had always had trade contacts.
As long as you are not lazy and exchange more food for the winter with Ganzhou merchants, most of the people in Rouran can survive the cold winter.
But since Emperor Shunde ascended the throne, he ordered the closure of trade with Rouran, which directly cut off Rouran's way of life.
Originally, only a small number of Rouran people tried to attack Jiagu Pass.
Later, except for the Rouran nobles who owned a large number of slaves, most of the Rouran people could not survive. Let's play
Three years after the closure of the trade, the Rouran began to attack Jiagu Pass.
The eldest grandson's family has guarded Jiagu Pass for generations, because the Rouran people are becoming more and more fierce, and the descendants of the eldest grandson's family have sacrificed one after another.
Until the eldest grandson Hong realized the problem and took the initiative to ask Ying to return to Beijing for the elderly.
But unexpectedly, at this time, he was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason.
Later, Jiaguguan was taken over by the armies of many families such as the Li family, and in the next few years, although there was constant friction, there would be no loss of Jiaguguan.
Now, Fu Lie is about to be sent to pacify Rouran.
Wen Qingzhu smiled, it seems that those people still want to repeat their old tricks.
When I woke up again, it was a little dark.
Wen Qingzhu had just sat up, and Mother Ye glanced at the door and said, "Miss, there is a Miss Du here." ”
"Let him in." Wen Qingzhu thought to himself, what should come will always come.
Du Weiniang walked in and looked at the weak Wen Qingzhu, feeling very uncomfortable.
Why was she born prematurely, Du Weiniang vaguely knew something.
"Madame, I have come to bid you farewell." Du Weiniang got straight to the point and directly stated her purpose.
Wen Qingzhu smiled lightly and said, "Are you going back to Ganzhou?" ”
"Hmm." Du Weiniang nodded, her mood a little low.
She came to help King Ning, not entirely to repay her kindness, she was very worried that something would happen to King Ning.
Just like back then, I was helpless.
But now, she saw another side of King Ning.
Du Weiniang couldn't accept it, so she decided to leave.
Wen Qingzhu watched the expression change on her face, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly: "Wei Niang, King Ning won't let you go." ”
Du Weiniang raised her head abruptly and looked at the person on the bed with a shocked expression.
"Unless you promise him, you won't go to Ganzhou." Wen Qingzhu directly said the entanglement in Du Weiniang's heart.
Soon, Wen Qingzhu's face was slightly cold: "I know that after your Du family left Lingcheng, they settled in Ganzhou, and it is normal for you to go back, but if Ganzhou will be broken by Rouran next, do you think King Ning will let you go?" ”
"Impossible! The emperor has already sent the Marquis of Ping to Ganzhou, he is so brave and martial-"
"What if the army led by Fu Lie is the army under King Ning, and King Ning deliberately does not let his subordinates listen to the command?" Wen Qingzhu looked into her eyes, revealing two points of aggressiveness.
Du Weiniang was trembling all over, and she only shook her head vigorously: "Your Highness is not such a person, no...... He's not that kind of person. ”
"Wei Niang, maybe he wasn't before, but now King Ning is such a person, Mingxuan is still seriously injured and has not recovered, I will definitely avenge this revenge!"
"Madame!" Du Weiniang's tears fell instantly, she knew that Wen Mingxuan's matter was inseparable from King Ning, and she didn't come over to persuade Wen Qingzhu to give up revenge.
She just felt that if Wen Mingxuan's life was saved, Wen Qingzhu and the child would also be saved.
There may be a turnaround.
"Wei Niang, when I was buried in Longshan, you knew what kind of person I was." Wen Qingzhu's tone softened, and he gently held Du Weiniang's hand.
It's very warm, but it makes Du Wei Niang cold.
Everything in the burial of Longshan before, Du Weiniang remembered it in her heart.
Wen Qingzhu is a person who has revenge.
"What if I try to persuade him, is there any chance? Young Master Wen's matter was not done by His Royal Highness! It wasn't his intention to hurt you! ”
Du Wei Niang was too worried that Wen Qingzhu would be unfavorable to King Ning, so she panicked and said everything she knew.
Wen Qingzhu looked into her eyes and smiled silently.
"It's the King of Chu! It was made by the King of Chu! In the past few days, the King of Chu has come to me and wants me to persuade His Highness to cooperate with him! I didn't say yes! ”
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu was a little surprised, she knew that Du Weiniang was a smart woman.
But for such a complex situation in the capital, it is far from what she can see through in such a short time.
But now what Du Weiniang said was far beyond what she should have known.
Wen Qingzhu's heart moved: "Wei Niang, I know that King Ning can't do so many things alone, if it weren't for the news provided by King Chu, all this would not have happened." ”
"I know that His Highness is not such a cruel person, he will not kill innocent people for no reason!" Du Weiniang still has a glimmer of hope for Jiang Yuanan.
Wen Qingzhu's tone became solemn: "It can be seen from this that the King of Chu is such a ruthless person, even if they jointly get rid of the Pingguo Marquis Mansion, in the end they will still fight for the throne, do you think King Ning will be the opponent of the King of Chu?" ”
Du Weiniang looked up instantly, looking at her with hope in her eyes: "Then what should I do?" ”
"Only by keeping vigilant against King Chu all the time can we listen, and now, only your words can be listened to by King Ning." Wen Qingzhu clenched Du Weiniang's hand and looked at her deeply.
Du Weiniang almost involuntarily asked: "Then, then what should I do?" ”
When he arrived here, Wen Qingzhu laughed: "It's very simple, you go to see the King of Chu, and then ......"
A quarter of an hour later, Du Weiniang left hesitantly.
And Wen Qingzhu closed his eyes tiredly.
After a while, footsteps came from far and near, stopping outside the screen.
Wen Qingzhu opened his eyes and didn't look at the figure outside the screen, but said quietly: "Don't make a move for the time being, the current situation of the Lu family is not good." ”
"You know." Lu Ce stared at the figure lying behind the screen.
Wen Qingzhu smiled self-deprecatingly: "You Lu Ce is unparalleled in wisdom and scheming, and you can come up with a plan to use the golden cicada to help Zuo Bing condense the sky and cross the sea, and my little discordant plan that I have to do is nothing in your eyes." ”
As she said this, she turned her head to the side.
Looking towards Lu Ce, the barrier of the screen seemed to disappear in an instant.
The two of them didn't speak for a long time, until the anxious voice of Peony came from the door.
"Miss Table! You're not well yet, you need to lie down and recuperate! ”
As soon as the words fell, with the sound of the door being opened, Peony helped Xue Miaomiao to the house.
And Lu Ce's figure has disappeared.
