Time flies, three months have passed, and Luoyang North City has still not been conquered.

However, the north city of Luoyang is full of holes, the walls of the river bank have appeared many huge gaps, collapsed in many places, Luoshui has also been blocked and drained, the river has dried up, and a long section of the river has been filled by the Dahua army.

Tens of thousands of people in Beicheng, the most miserable, food shortage, Wang Shichong sent people to loot the people's home grain stock, leaving only a small part, the rest of the chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, horses and donkeys were all taken away, whether it was nobles or commoners, so a famine spread in Beicheng, many people could not eat, began to eat grass, eat soil, the number of deaths increased sharply.

In the midsummer rainy season, the streets are full of corpses, there are wounded people in pain, there are hungry people who can't walk, sometimes, people walk and walk, hungry and prostrate, they fall to the ground, and they can't get up again.

Some young girls came out, standing under the wall, hungry and weak, at this time, if you take a steamed bun to her, the girl will recognize you as picked, to meet the physical requirements, even if it was once a lady, even if she was a daughter, at this time also gave up self-esteem.

However, there is a shortage of food, and at first there are men to take advantage, but later, they will starve to death at any time, and they will not be so stupid.

Li Jing slowed down the attack on Luoyang, because he had already received the news that the Turks had invaded Youzhou and pinned down the military strength of the Dahua Division in the north, which made Dou Jiande suddenly make a big move, commanding the Hebei Army to go south, capture Liyangcang, and drive away Xu Shiji, and the next target was Xingyang City!

At this time, Li Jing was not in a hurry to conquer Luoyang immediately, but to lure the Hebei army, continue to come to reinforcements, and then catch them all.

.........

Chang'an City.

After Luo Zhaoyun got the information, he nodded slightly, the Turkic moves, Li Tang and Dou Jiande's private alliance, he knew about it, in the past few months, he mobilized men and horses, and elite troops continued to gather in the area of Hangu Pass, he could leave the palace at any time and go to Hangu Pass to lead the troops to set off.

However, he didn't leave for a long time because the eldest grandson queen was pregnant in October and was about to give birth.

"Your Majesty, the queen is about to give birth."

When Luo Zhaoyun heard the news that the eldest grandson was about to give birth, he couldn't sit still anymore, and rushed out of the imperial study, with his cultivation, he walked briskly, and a figure flashed and came to Fengluan Palace, the main bedroom of the eldest grandson.

Because the eldest grandson Wurong is classified as the queen, she is the lord of the concubines, and has the highest status in the harem, so the palace of the building is also the largest, and the palace gardens and gardens are extremely exquisite, with flowers and trees, and the layout is exquisite.

At this moment, under the attic of Empress Changsun, there are many palace maids standing, and several princesses in the harem have all arrived, but Xue Zhiqing and others are also pot-bellied, and in two months, it will be their turn.

This is the birth of the first small life in the Dahua harem, which is not only related to the position of the prince, but also related to the stability and national fortune of Dahua.

"Your Majesty—"

Dozens of princesses and palace maids saw that the King of Han had arrived, and they gave gifts and blessings, and the etiquette in the palace was indispensable.

"How's the Queen?" Luo Zhaoyun asked anxiously.

At the head of the stairs stood Ruyi, Xue Zhiqing, Gao Yufei, Xiao Yiyi and other concubines, and the other palace maids did not dare to answer easily, when the queen was not there, the princess in the palace was mainly Ruyi, after all, she was also one of the queens.

Ruyi replied: "The eldest grandson queen had a stomachache just now, and she has entered the room at this time, but I am afraid that she will give birth today, and the midwives are also waiting inside!" ”

Luo Zhaoyun was a little anxious, after all, from modern times to ancient times, he was waiting for his mother to give birth to a baby for the first time, and he had no experience of prenatal escort, so he worried: "Let's go, go up the stairs and listen." ”

"Ahh Ah......" The eldest grandson Wurong kept screaming in pain in the boudoir, giving birth to a child is the same for a woman, no matter how big or small the mouth is, the pain is inevitable.

The eldest grandson's cry of pain made Luo Zhaoyun and the concubines feel palpitations and worry, especially the princess who also wanted to give birth to a child for her husband, her face changed slightly in fright, and she couldn't help but cover her lower abdomen.

Ruyi said on the side: "I heard my sister say that there are several pains in giving birth, one hurts one after another, and the eldest grandson doesn't know how many sins she will suffer today." But I believe that she will be able to give birth smoothly, and the husband should not worry too much. ”

Not worried? Can it not make people worry, in this ancient time when science and technology were backward, the probability of dystocia was very high, and if something went wrong, wouldn't it cost people's lives?

Luo Zhaoyun still couldn't let go of his heart, but fortunately, he knew that Empress Changsun was very famous in history, and she would not have an accident today, so she shouted at the exquisite palace attic: "Rong'er, you have to hold on, I am outside the door, don't be afraid of ......"

"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid, I'm going to give birth to a baby boy for you, set up a crown prince for my Dahua, and stabilize the country's fortunes...... Ah......h

The eldest grandson Wurong has a beautiful face, at the moment she is only wearing a light pajama silk robe, a green silk is draped on the fragrant shoulders, the willow waist is slender, at this moment her lower abdomen is bulging like a hill, and her legs are not straight, she bends and bows, and separates to both sides, and the midwife Gong'e keeps giving birth, cleaning the queen's inner legs with hot water.

The prenatal pain was getting stronger and stronger, and the eldest grandson Wurong couldn't help but snort softly, but he tried his best to grit his teeth, in order to avoid the worry of people outside, he suppressed the pain very lightly, and called 'Your Majesty' one after another, and never stopped.

The princesses outside all sweated in their palms when they heard this, and they clasped each other's hands in twos and threes, their eyes were filled with tears, and they couldn't bear to listen to it anymore.

Luo Zhaoyun was very nervous, looking forward to it, eager to break in and take a look, at this time the two jade hands tightly grasped his big hand, he turned to look, Ruyi and Xue Zhiqing stood beside his left and right shoulders respectively, their eyes were full of strong feelings and deep concern.

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much, a woman is pregnant in October, once she gives birth, she has to go through these hurdles, the eldest grandson is the queen, the mother of the world, and the grace of heaven, it will be safe!" Xue Zhiqing comforted him.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly, and after surviving for a while, suddenly a baby's cry came from inside, resounding throughout the palace.
