Chapter 789: Pregnant

"How can you say that Yunhe's body is fine, right?"

Seeing Gu Zitong, the medical officer accompanying the driver, walking out of the inner compartment, Chen Youzhen leaned over and couldn't help but ask nervously.

"It's okay, depending on what you say-I don't know if I should congratulate Hou Ye Chen, or do I have to cover up for Hou Ye Chen?" Gu Zitong arched his hand and said with a smile.

Yun He is Chen Youzhen's granddaughter, and now she doesn't even have a name, so she got pregnant first, Chen Youzhen is indeed a little embarrassed.

Gu Qian and Zhu Juezhong glanced at each other with a clever plan, and snorted haha, not to embarrass Chen Youzhen, they said to Gu Zitong: "The county lord of Yunhe is not accustomed to water and soil, and his body is unwell, so he needs Doctor Gu to prescribe two doses of medicine to recuperate......"

"This is Zitong's business," Gu Zitong arched his hand and said, "The county lord's diet is lighter, but the rest is also fine, and he must not go through the fatigue of cars and horses, and he can't be too diligent in serving by the king's side......"

"Ahem!" When Han Qian heard this in the inner compartment, he coughed, let these people worry less about his private life, how to take care of pregnant women, his experience may not be bad, anyway, it won't be a big problem to survive the first three months.

Hearing Han Qian's dissatisfied cough, Gu Zitong gave a stirring spirit, bowed his hand to the adults sitting in the outer wing, and retired first.

"Come in and talk." Han Qian said in the inner wing.

Gu Qian, Zhu Juezhong, Chen Youzhen and the others were just about to stand up, when they heard Yun He whispering to Han Qian in the inner wing: "No, you go out to discuss things with the princes, your face is about to be lost......" Everyone thought that Yun He was afraid of embarrassment, and smiled in their hearts, so they sat down in the outer wing again, waiting for Han Qian to come out.

Han Qian was reluctantly pushed by Yun He to the outer wing to discuss with the princes how to deal with the aftermath.

Zhu Juezhong said in a deep voice: "Luo Guogong should have expected that Yunhe might be unwell, but did the second concubine send someone to inform him first?" ”

Zhu Jue's words were other than that, saying that Zhu Zhen had long known that his sister had colluded with Han Qian, but Wang Jun and Zhao Ting'er, the two daughters, were not easy to mess with, and several of them were scheming to match this matter.

"Yunhe is waiting by my side, Jun'er and Ting'er already know that they were going to give this matter to Luoyang, but they didn't expect Bianliang to fall so quickly, and they were negligent for a while, so they rushed to Bianliang first. Yunhe is pregnant, I just wrote a letter, and I will send someone to Luoyang later......" Han Qian said.

"The monarch does not want to be in a hurry to claim the emperor, but the matter of Mrs. Jun and Mrs. Ting canonizing the queen and the concubine can go first, and Yunhe can canonize the concubine - the state affairs are in a hurry, the monarch thinks that the people's livelihood in the world is still in trouble and wants to save it first, and the canonization can be announced to the world, and the etiquette can be simplified." Zhu Juezhong said.

"The etiquette should indeed be simple, and Yunhe should also be a concubine." Han Qian is also not used to holding any ceremonies in a big way, and said.

this

Outside, although he is not a pure-hearted person, Yunhe finally made him unbearable, but it was also difficult to get along for a long time, and it would never be easy to accept the harem without any feelings.

So he didn't want to make any distinction between the titles of nobles and virtuous people, and make his private life look like a small court.

Although Zhu Juezhong and they are more conservative and traditional, they are also deeply influenced by the new school and the new policy, so they will not get entangled in inconsequential titles, and Yunhe and respect him as a noble concubine is also something they are happy to see, and asked: "What about Mrs. Xi?" ”

The implication is that Han Qian and Xi Yi took such an opportunity to directly break it, saving everyone from being tired and panicking when acting.

"The world is unified, Xi Ying, Jun'er, and Ting'er's merits are not under the princes, and when the time comes, they will be knighted." Han Qian has a little respect for Xi Ying, and she herself does not want to be a concubine.

In addition, in addition to the large-scale use of female workers in textile and other industries, when the social productive forces are further developed, women have a more independent economic status and ability, and they are bound to strive for a more independent social status.

At present, there are no substantial obstacles to the reunification of the Central Plains, and Han Qian is considering how to continue to develop the social productive forces in the future, so as to avoid the dilemma of pursuing stability alone, falling into self-containment, and social stagnation. Otherwise, no matter how perfectly designed the system is, it will not be able to ensure that the empire will one day collapse under the attack of internal and external difficulties.

This will inevitably require a gradual unshackling of women.

In addition to promoting the appointment of female officials, Han Qian now also wants to knight Xi Ying when the time is right, so as to slightly accelerate the advent of this trend; Or when the government and the opposition have to admit this trend, the girder can be less controversial and internally frictionless.

Hearing Han Qian say this, although Zhu Juezhong, Gu Qian and others were also stunned, but fortunately, the atmosphere in the current world was relatively enlightened, and they had not experienced the centuries-long imprisonment of Cheng Zhu Daoxue in later generations, and there was even a precedent for the empress to be crowned in the previous dynasty, and I didn't think that Han Qian wanted to knight Xi Yi for meritorious service, which was an extraordinarily outrageous move.

Besides, if Han Qian has made another outrageous move, everyone can pinch their noses and admit it.

Who is Han Qian opening up a foundation that they have never seen before?

And when it comes to Xi Ying's exploits in the development of the imperial industry, don't talk about Gu Qian, Zhu Juezhong and others, there are few generals from the Tangyi Army who can compare their merits with Xi Yi with a shy face.

"Then follow the arrangement of the king." Zhu Juezhong and others responded.

"Then that's it." Han Qian said.

Gu Qian and Zhu Youzhen felt that today's matter was more important, and they did not ask Li Zhihe, Han Yuanqi and others to bother Han Qian with military affairs - this matter was quickly discussed and a rough idea was discussed, and the edict was drafted by Gu Qian and Qin Wen.

Although the old site of Yongwang Palace has not been burned to ashes, it has been abandoned after the war, and has not been rebuilt, and there are not a few palaces and pavilions that are intact at present.

The yard was overgrown with weeds, and before Han Qian and Yunhe walked in, Huo Li insisted on sending guards in.

Tread on the thriving grass to prevent snakes and insects from hiding inside.

Although it is broken, Yunhe walks in, but he can recall countless old days.

The Yongwang Palace must be renovated and preserved, but in order to prevent the local government from repairing for the sake of repair under such an urgent financial situation, Han Qian asked Han Yuanqi to build Bianliang Academy on the site of the Yongwang Palace.

At present, it is quite difficult financially to achieve universal education all at once, but the establishment of one or two comprehensive colleges in each province is a priority to ensure that it is completed.

Han Qian and Yunhe lived in Bianliang until late April.

During this period, the Liang army has almost recovered all the territory south of Yanshan and north of the Huai River, and at present, in addition to Jingzhaofu (Luoyang), it has also been formally determined to set up Yongzhou, Hedong, Heshuo, Henan, Shandong, Huainan six provinces, with the recovery of Heshuo, Jinbei and Hehuai, the Liang household has officially exceeded 20 million.

Although after the rupture of the relationship between Liang and Chu, the border trade between Liang and Chu actually shrank by more than half, with a series of major military victories of the Liang army in Heshuo, Jinnan, Jinzhong, Northern Jin, and Hehuai, local construction and people's livelihood relief also started rapidly, and the demand for industrial production in Huaiyang, Luoyang, Donghu, Xuzhou, Dengjun, Chuzhou and other places actually continued to expand.

During his time in Bianliang, Han Qian mainly promoted the textile, shipbuilding, mining, metal smelting and casting, cement firing and other industries to transfer and develop to the newly recovered areas, and restore production and people's livelihood in these areas as soon as possible.

At the end of April, Yunhe was already pregnant, and the reaction during pregnancy was not so strong, so she returned to Luoyang to raise the baby.

At this time, the first and second central marching armies were also rested and replenished, and marched south along Yingshui and Surabaya from Xingyang and Bianliang respectively, preparing to launch the final battle to recover Jianghuai.

Under the leadership of Han Donghu, the Second Central Marching Army was further expanded, with a total of more than 50,000 soldiers and auxiliaries, and moved south along Surabaya, stationed in Xuzhou and Sizhou, and peeped into Huaidong from the north bank of the lower reaches of the Huai River.

Under the leadership of generals Kong Xirong, Feng Zhang, Xiao Dahu, Dou Rong, Huo Li, Lu Ze, Wang Ji, and He Liufeng, the First Central Camp Army and the First Brigade of the Imperial Guard, with a total of 60,000 soldiers and auxiliaries, escorted Han Qian, Gu Qian, Zhu Juezhong, Li Zhihe, Feng Yi, Han Daochang, Guo Qi, Qiao Weiyan, Qin Wen, Wang Zhe, Yin Peng, and other generals and ministers, and arrived at Donghu in mid-May to meet Gao Shao, Yang Qin, Zhao Wuji, Cao Ba, Li Qi, and other generals of Huainan Province and Huainan Xingying Army.

Prior to this, the Huainan marching battalion army was also expanded one after another, with more than 40,000 infantry cavalry and more than 20,000 naval forces, and 16 warships of the naval army transformed into new gunboats, equipped with a total of 168 light smoothbore guns.

The battle between Liang and Chu is like an arrow on the string, and it is about to break out.

Compared with the 167,000 soldiers and horses that the Liang army gathered along the Huai River and the Yangtze River, the Chu army gathered more than 250,000 troops in Huaidong, the prefectures on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and Jinling.

It's just that at this moment, no one in the world, including the subjects of the Chu court, would think that the Chu army would have a few chances of winning in this final decisive battle......
