Chapter Eighty-Four: The Situation in the River

As a result, Lee Seung-ji finally turned fifteen years old and could tie his hair. Although according to the calculation method of modern people, minus the imaginary age, Li Chengji should be fourteen years old.

But when you arrive in Daliao, you have to adapt to the living customs of this era. Li Chengji didn't understand this, and accepted the fact that he was fifteen years old.

From the year of the dancing spoon to the bundle of hair. On behalf of Li Chengji, he is no longer a child. Even if it is a coming-of-age ceremony, it is still a few years away. But at this time, marrying a wife and having children did not hinder it at all.

The personal maid Zhuqing secretly sent autumn waves to Li Chengji every day.

If it weren't for Zhuqing's age not yet turning eighteen, Li Chengji would definitely not let her go.

In the end, Zhuqing's identity is not as simple as a personal maid. For things like intercourse, you need Zhuqing to 'enlighten'. If Li Chengji is affectionate and righteous, he can give her a name.

Of course, this is after the completion of the house.

Now, even if Li Chengji has a heart, Li Xiao will stop him.

So Li Chengji has already thought about it, and when Zhuqing reaches a certain age, he will take it down.

When he was dreaming about the Spring and Autumn Festival, his father Li Shichang suddenly became busy again. However, it was the invasion of Khorezm that made the situation tense. is busy with official business all day long, and he can't take care of Li Xiao's family.

He handed over to Li Chengji and took good care of Li Xiao's family. Although there are housekeepers and subordinates, there is no need for Li Chengji to worry about it.

But Li Xiao, who is pregnant, has a significant change in temperament. For example, moody, easily anxious, irritable. Except for the necessary words, the rest of the time, they were very silent.

Lee Seung-ji understands that this is a precursor to depression during pregnancy. If you don't have someone by your side, it gets worse.

It's a pity that Li Shichang is busy with official business and has no time to accompany him. Although Li Chengji is in a hurry, there is no way. I can only try my best to accompany Li Xiao and relieve her mood.

Although in his bones, Li Chengji and Li Xiao are not related by blood at all. In terms of psychological age, there is not much difference between the two. But after so many days of getting along, Li Chengji has put himself into the role of his son. Psychologically, he also slowly accepted the fact that Li Xiao was his mother.

Therefore, Li Xiao had pregnancy depression, and Li Chengji was very anxious in his heart.

urged Xiaozi to help and inquire about a large number of prescriptions for treating depression. Then select a few prescriptions with strong operability, and let Dr. Zhou grasp the medicine according to the prescription. At the same time, find some ways to relieve boredom and try to make Li Xiaoshi happy.

As a result, he could not pay attention to the construction of Jiao'an Fang. I can only ask Li Dayi to help take good care of it.

When he didn't cross in the past, his wife gave birth to a daughter, and Li Chengji had no chance to take care of him by his side. Now that the cheap mother-in-law Li Xiao has a child, he took this opportunity to make up for it.

took care of it like this, and finally it was time for Li Xiao to give birth.

Two experienced midwives who have delivered countless babies have set up the delivery room very early. Lee Seung-ji checked it several times, and after making some changes from a scientific point of view. asked the midwife to stay by Li Xiao's side all the time. It's good to help produce in time when the baby is about to give birth.

When the amniotic water broke, the midwife immediately carried Li Xiao into the delivery room.

As the saying goes, when a woman gives birth, she follows the ghost gate. If you can't say it, there will be an accident, and one corpse will kill you. Don't look at the low risk of childbirth for modern women, it is protected by a good level of medical means.

In ancient times, if the fetal position was not correct, or the pregnant woman was weak in qi and blood, limited physical strength, and even some unspeakable minor problems, it was likely to cause tragedy.

So Li Chengji, who was waiting outside the door, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Compared with him, Li Shichang is much calmer!

hurried home, and guarded it very calmly. In his hand, he also took a few folds and looked at them with a serious expression.

It was also the situation in Hezhong Province that touched the nerves of Da Liao. As the pillar of the imperial court, Li Shichang naturally devoted 100% of his energy to sharing worries for the country. This Li Xiao gave birth, and he had to hurry up to see the excerpts.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is still Khorezm's confidence and arrogance. Therefore, after conquering the Kipchak steppe, he did not hesitate to encroach on the territory of the Western Karakhanid. The river area is also a place where water and grass have been abundant for a long time. Many important cities are gathered in this boundary.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as an outstanding person.

Khorezm, naturally, there is no reason to ignore this good land.

It is also a land in Central Asia, where there are too few places suitable for farming. It's either the vast Gobi or the rugged mountains. Therefore, the area suitable for agriculture is the focus of repeated seizure by various forces.

Of course, the advantage of geographical location is also a reason that has to be considered.

This area in the middle of the river is adjacent to Khorezm. If Khorezm wants to expand, it must take this area.

Because from the map, the Hanaka area is a crossroads!

To the north it inherited the Great Liao, to the west it inherited the Eastern Kara Khanate, and to the south it was the Gur State. The terrain is rugged to the west and south. To the east, there is the vast Gobi. Only the north, which is connected to the Great Liao, can be regarded as relatively flat. But the Kyrgyz Mountains block it, making the river region a relatively isolated massif to some extent.

Now the Western Karat Khanate is a vassal state of the Great Liao, so that the Hezhong region has always been under the control of the Great Liao. Through this geographical advantage, it is difficult for other forces to threaten the Great Liao itself.

The repeated invasions of the Gur Kingdom did not let Da Liao hurt his muscles and bones. On the contrary, the vassal states became more dependent on the protection of the Great Liao.

If Khorezm occupies it, it can go north and south at any time. The mainland of Daliao will also be mortally threatened.

Therefore, the sultan of Khorezm had a certain political foresight in targeting the Transoxiana region.

However, even so, Da Liao was not prepared to use force to repel the invading enemy. Because of the Western Kharat Khanate, they did not ask for help from Da Liao. Therefore, morally, Da Liao is not easy to make. In addition, although Khorezm had the intention of encroaching on the Transoxiana region, he only fought with the Western Kharat Khanate on the border.

In one sentence, it is not yet the climate.

What's more, fighting a war costs money. In the case of not being able to fight, Da Liao was unwilling to take the initiative to raise troops.

Li Chengji knows all this news. And from the standpoint of Khorezm, these small actions are inevitable results.

After all, the kingdom of Gur has been defeated, and Khorezm has no enemies to threaten. Even though the Great Liao was still its own suzerainty, Khorezm had annexed two-thirds of Persia's territory. In terms of national strength, it is no longer the same.

If you want to be strong, you will have to challenge the majesty of the suzerainty now.
