Chapter 257: Born
Chapter 280: Born
After the New Year, it will be the eighth year of Zhenguan.
At the end of the first month, Zhirou had clearly felt the fetal movements in her belly. Whenever this time, Zhirou always looks nervous, for fear that she will give birth in the next moment. So, Zhang Yunwen spent a lot of effort to invite Sun Simiao, the great god, to his home, and at the same time asked for three experienced stable women from Empress Changsun to deal with emergencies.
And Zhirou's mother, Princess Fushun, also moved to Zhang Yunwen's mansion because she was worried about her daughter, and lived next door to Zhirou.
With the care of these people, Zhang Yunwen felt a lot more relieved. During this time, there were many major events inside and outside the court, and Zhang Yunwen had to sit in the investigation institute, so he neglected the affairs of his family.
First of all, Li Shimin wanted to send ministers as ambassadors to the provinces to supervise them. But after searching all over the court, he did not find anyone. Li Jing recommended Wei Zheng to Li Shimin, Li Shimin listened, pondered for a moment and said: "If you lose the rules of the Zheng, you can't leave left or right in a day." In the end, Li Shimin ordered Li Jing and Taichangqing Xiao Yu and other thirteen people to branch the world, and said: "The chief inspector is virtuous, asks about the people's suffering, pays tribute to the elderly, provides relief to the poor, and causes stagnation and flooding. ”
When these thirteen important ministers and their respective servants rushed to the Tang Ten Roads respectively. At the same time, the huge monitoring network in Lin Ran's hands also began to take action. A piece of news from all provinces was transmitted to Chang'an through various ways and summarized to Lin Ran, who led a group of personnel who were specifically responsible for intelligence screening to screen out a large amount of information, selected important information and handed it to Zhang Yunwen, who then reported it to Li Shimin.
Another incident made Li Shimin furious. In the first lunar month, Tuyuhun Fuyun Khan sent envoys to pay tribute. However, after this delegation paid tribute, when it returned to Tuyuhun, it entered Koushanzhou and plundered a lot of property. Hearing Zhang Yunwen's report on the matter, Li Shimin smashed the teacup in his hand on the ground on the spot, and said angrily: "Tuyuhun deceived me too much, paying tribute first, plundering last, and being respectful and conceiving, such behavior, heaven and man are angry!" Immediately sent an envoy to Tuyuhun to reprimand Fu Yun Khan, and recruited Fu Yun into the court. Fu Yun refused to enter the court on the grounds of illness, but asked for his son to marry the king.
"How can it be!" Although Li Shimin tried his best to remain calm in front of the courtiers, as soon as he returned to the palace, Li Shimin was furious, "What kind of thing is this Fu Yun, I can't summon it, but I still dare to ask me for a kiss, it's just a bastard!" ”
Hearing Li Shimin's words, the following important ministers glanced at each other and did not speak. Li Shimin glanced at a few people and asked rhetorically: "Wait a minute, how should this matter be handled?" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Actually, Your Majesty can verbally agree to this marriage, but you must summon the king to the court to welcome you!" If the king comes, that is, to show his sincerity, then why not marry the emperor's daughter with him? If the king does not come, his marriage will be cut off as a punishment! ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yunwen was disdainful. Marrying a princess is a reward, and marrying a divorce is a punishment, which is really inexplicable. Whether to marry or not, for these peoples, there is no deterrent, how can it be punished?
However, Li Shimin nodded approvingly and agreed with the eldest grandson Wuji's suggestion. The edict agreed to Fu Yun's marriage proposal, but the king needed to come to Chang'an in person to marry the emperor's daughter.
And Zhang Yunwen watched all this silently and did not participate in it. Because in two days, Zhirou will be born.
Zhang Yunwen looked at the information in front of him a little absentmindedly, and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see a few words, so he threw it to a clerk next to him, stood up, and walked out the door. Standing at the door, but his thoughts didn't know where to go.
At this time, I only heard a few voices from the door, and when I looked at the door, I saw two guards stopping a girl wearing a light red dress.
This girl is the maid Rui'er next to Li Yu. This girl with a somewhat pungent personality said to the guards menacingly: "The second lady of our family will be born soon, if you delay my aunt to see his wife, can you afford the consequences?" ”
The two guards suddenly look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do. At this time, Zhang Yunwen rushed to the door, regardless of the two guards and said directly to Rui'er: "Rui'er, why are you here?" As soon as these words came out, he seemed to remember something, and grabbed Rui'er's arm excitedly, "Is Rou'er going to give birth?" ”
Rui'er's shoulders were grabbed by Zhang Yunwen, only to feel that the other party's hand was extremely powerful, and the slightest heat came through her body, so that she had just arrived at the warmth of the silk. Immediately said: "Yes, when the second lady got up today, she screamed that the fetus was moving badly, and Sun Daochang and several stable women all said that they were going to give birth." Your Highness asked me to come and inform you! Now there is a mess in the house! ”
When Zhang Yunwen heard this, he immediately grabbed Rui'er's hand: "Let's go, let's go back!" ”
A big red horse was pulled out of the stable and stepped on it first. Look at Rui'er under the horse again, and stretch out her hand: "Go, I'll take you away!" ”
Rui'er hesitated slightly, then stretched out her soft wattle, grabbed Zhang Yunwen's outstretched hand, and with the power of Zhang Yunwen's pull, she suddenly got on the horse.
The red horse suddenly spread its hooves and galloped in the direction of Zhang Yunwen's mansion.
Rui'er sat behind Zhang Yunwen, hugged his strong waist, and slowly leaned her face on his solid back, with a sweet smile on her face.
The horses soon arrived at the mansion. As soon as he arrived at the door, Zhang Yunwen turned over and dismounted, and then took Rui'er off the horse, and then rushed to the house.
When I came to the backyard, I saw that a lot of people had gathered in the courtyard of the backyard. There are Zhirou's parents, Mrs. Wei Chi, the two sisters-in-law of the Liu family, and Sun Simiao, who has a leisurely face and is drinking tea.
From time to time, her moans came from Zhirou's room, which was terrible, and Zhang Yunwen's heart ached. The door of the room opened and closed from time to time, and the maid and the woman with the copper basin entered and exited from time to time.
Zhang Yunwen was about to step into the room, but was blocked by a short and fat stable woman.
"Master, this big man can't just enter the delivery room! Beware of the blood that frightens the child! Well, sir, you'd better go out first, go out first, and leave it to us here! Although Wen Po said politely, her hands were spread horizontally, like a hen protecting her chickens, and Zhang Yunwen was not allowed to step into the room for half a minute.
Zhang Yunwen stretched out his head and glanced inside, and when he saw Wen Po's resolute look, he retreated to the courtyard and sat next to Sun Simiao. looked at Sun Simiao expectantly, and seeing the latter's leisurely and indifferent appearance, he immediately said anxiously: "My Sun Daochang, alas, you have something to say!" ”
Sun Simiao put down the teacup and glanced at Zhang Yunwen: "Yunwen, you don't have to worry so much. Although the second lady gave birth to the first child, she has always been in good health, and she has been properly cared for during pregnancy, and the old way is ninety percent sure, the second lady will give birth smoothly, and the mother and child are safe! ”
Zhang Yunwen suddenly said: "Isn't there still a certain certainty?" ”
Sun Simiao glanced at Zhang Yunwen and said lightly: "What is there in the world that is perfect?" ”
Zhang Yunwen was pale: "Even if there is no perfect thing, you must try your best to do it and try to get as close to perfection as possible!" ”
Sun Simiao sighed slightly, turned his head, and said no more.
Zhang Yunwen stood up, but while rubbing his hands, he paced in the courtyard, looking anxious, and glanced at Zhirou's room from time to time.
Zhirou's moans grew louder and louder, reaching through the window into the courtyard. Zhang Yunwen stopped in his ears, even more anxious, and almost wanted to rush into the delivery room to see Zhirou's situation in person.
Just when he could barely hold his breath and wanted to move towards Zhirou's room, a white and tender soft silk grabbed Zhang Yunwen's big hand.
Zhang Yunwen turned his head to look, but it was Li Yuzheng pursing his lips, looking at himself with worry in his eyes. At that moment, my heart softened, and the depression in my heart suddenly disappeared.
"Sister Rou will be fine!" Li Yu's eyes were firmly fixed on Zhang Yunwen's eyes, and he said firmly.
Hearing this, Zhang Yunwen held Li Yu's Rou Yi tightly, and looked at Zhi Rou's room with a firm face: "Yes, your sister Rou will be fine, she will definitely give birth to a healthy child!" ”
Seeing this situation, Sun Simiao on the side couldn't help stroking his long beard, and chuckled twice.
At this time, I only heard a terrible scream from Zhi Rou in the room, followed by the anxious words of the stable women: "Second lady, work hard, work hard!" It's out, hold on a little longer, and it's coming out soon......"
Zhirou's screams rose sharply, and then a baby's cry suddenly came. But Zhirou's screams disappeared, leaving only violent gasps.
"Raw! Yu'er, Rou'er is born! As soon as Zhang Yunwen heard the baby's cry, he immediately said to Li Yu excitedly.
"Hmm!" Li Yu nodded heavily, looking at the room, his eyes were also full of joy.
Zhang Yunwen pulled Zhirou and ran to the room in two steps. The rest of the ladies also entered
"Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master, the second lady has given birth to a daughter!" A swaddling cloth made of thick soft silk wrapped the little guy who had just been born and was still crying "wow" walked up to Zhang Yunwen and said to Zhang Yunwen.
Zhang Yunwen took the child carefully, stiffening his hands and feet, for fear that he would hurt this delicate little guy if he used his strength. Zhi Rou also came up to look at this child who was still covered with red flesh and looked wrinkled, and looked at it for a moment, but laughed softly: "This child really looks like Sister Rou!" ”
Zhang Yunwen glanced at the baby who was still crying "wow" suspiciously, but he couldn't see anything similar to Zhirou.
Then the little fellow spun around in the hands of the adults. Xu was tired of crying, and when the little guy returned to Li Yu's hands, he had stopped crying, and there were two traces of tears on his red face, and he fell asleep.
Zhang Yunwen walked to the side of the bed, looked at Zhi Rou's tired face, and said softly: "Rou'er, now we have a child!" ”
Zhi Rou said: "I'm really sorry, Xianggong, the concubine didn't give you a son!" ”
At this time, Li Yu came to the bedside with the child in his arms and handed the child to Zhi Rou.
Zhi Rou looked at the cute child who was already a sleeping baby, and a shallow smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Zhang Yunwen leaned down, bowed his head and said, "See, how beautiful our child is, how much he looks like you!" She must be a beauty in the future! Zhang Yunwen directly applied Li Yu's words that looked like Zhirou.
Zhi Rou suddenly said happily: "Xianggong really doesn't dislike her for being a daughter?" ”
Zhang Yunwen stroked Zhirou's forehead and said, "Don't think nonsense, my husband said that giving birth to a boy and a girl are the same!" Rou'er, what you have to do now is to have a good rest and make up for it! ”
Zhi Rou heard this and nodded obediently.
Seeing that Zhang Yunwen finished speaking, the rest of the female dependents surrounded and chattered to Zhirou.
Li Yu stood aside, looked down at the baby in swaddling clothes, and raised his head from time to time to look at Zhang Yunwen.
On the fourth day of February in the eighth year of Zhenguan, Zhirou gave birth to a lovely daughter, and Zhang Yunwen became a father.
