Mary immediately asked, "Your Majesty, what is pH?" ”

Liu Yong smiled, not knowing how to explain it to Maria. But as an emperor, this thing can't be explained, and it's a bit too embarrassing.

He thought for a moment and said, "How do you say this pH?" Let me use the analogy of the land. Some land has a lot of water, and some land is relatively dry, and this water is good for the boy to plant the seed easily, but the dry land seed can't be planted. And the seeds that represent girls can be planted. That's it. ”

After listening to Liu Yong's words, Maria thought for a while and said, "Oh, the concubine understands. I knew that when my concubine was in the same room with His Majesty, I would have drunk less water. The concubine's body is dry and there is no water, can't she give birth to a princess? ”

Liu Yong listened to Maria's words and laughed.

Mary asked, "Why is Your Majesty laughing?" Isn't what the concubine said wrong? ”

Liu Yong smiled and said, "I'm just making an analogy. It's useless if you drink less water. ”

"So how can it be useful to you?" Maria asked curiously.

Liu Yong said with a smile: "I don't know much about this. Probably drinking vinegar will work! Hehe. With that, he laughed to himself.

Mary immediately said, "Vinegar? Then why didn't Your Majesty say it earlier? ”

Liu Yong said with a smile: "The problem is that drinking vinegar doesn't necessarily work. Giving birth to a boy or a girl, God still has the final say. ”

To say that it is not said that Mary was sad at first, then smiling, and now her stomach is bulging, and it is too late to say anything.

So he smiled and said, "Come on, Your Majesty eats vegetables!" ”

Liu Yong laughed and said, "I'm full, I won't eat." ”

"Then Your Majesty drink tea!" Maria said with a smile.

"Well, good!" Liu Yong got up and sat on the edge of the kang. There are also a few smaller ones on the kang.

The daughter of the small palace served tea, and Maria sat on the other side of the small table.

"Your Majesty, please drink tea!" Maria said.

"Okay." Liu Yong picked it up and took a sip.

Mary said with some shame, "Your Majesty, today you will not be able to serve your concubine to sleep. I'm so sorry! ”

Liu Yonghe smiled and said, "Concubine Ai is too worried. Now that you are pregnant, it is not advisable for you to do that sexual intercourse. I don't blame you. I just need you to take care of your body. Give me a healthy prince, and I will be satisfied. ”

Mary said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this can be done by the concubines." ”

Liu Yong nodded with satisfaction.

The two drank tea for a while and talked for a while, and Liu Yong got up to leave. Maria was very reluctant and wanted Liu Yong to stay.

I only heard Mary say euphemistically: "Your Majesty, it's already afternoon." Your Majesty might as well live with the concubines, okay? ”

Seeing that Mary was begging bitterly, Liu Yong couldn't bear it, so he agreed to stay. Immediately made Maria jump up happily, and bluffed Liu Yong hurriedly said: "Don't jump high, don't jump high." Be careful, be careful. ”

Maria stopped jumping. But her chubby face jumped with a smile.

On this day and one night, Liu Yong spent time in Maria's Palace of Lichun.

It's a beautiful time to get along. Although the two didn't see each other, they still hugged each other and slept together.

Early the next morning, Liu Yong had breakfast in Mary's palace and went to the court.

In the early days, the discussion was about agriculture. Autumn is just around the corner. The following provinces have brought up a bumper harvest. Since Liu Yong became emperor, it has been smooth every year. A bumper grain harvest is a natural thing.

However, the Tatars had another poor harvest this year. Drought in areas north of the Tianjiang River has led to poor grain harvests. The imperial court was already short of food, and now it had to increase taxes again. As a result, the common people began to complain again. The days of the Great Yang Dynasty have also become difficult.

And the battle against Pingliangzhou is already underway.

Gao Tang and Chen Cheng received a military letter from the Ministry of War, which listed their crimes, but also gave them the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. This made Gao Tang suddenly feel very encouraged.

The Spurs in Anzhou City were worried all day long.

He ordered to go down and attack the Black Tiger Ridge tomorrow morning.

The next morning, the 50,000 men of the Tatar army lazily went to attack the Black Tiger Ridge. The lazy army naturally attacked symbolically. After several battles, they withdrew.

In the lobby of the yamen in Pingliangzhou City, Gao Tang and Chen Cheng looked at each other and smiled.

Gao Tang said: "It seems that this Tarnu army has nothing to do with us!" Ha ha. ”

Chen Cheng said: "Isn't it. I think it's symbolic for them to attack. ”

Gao Tang asked, "Brother Chen, what do you think is the situation?" ”

"I think that the Tarnu court ordered an attack, and the Tarnu army here had to attack, but there was no good way to attack. I can't attack it. So they had to pretend. Hehe. Chen Cheng said.

"Huh." Gao Tang smiled and said, "Brother Chen and I have the same idea. ”

Chen Cheng said with a smile: "It seems that our first war with the Tatars was a victory?" ”

"It's hard to say!" Gao Tang said.

Chen Cheng asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Gao Tang said: "It depends on the determination of the Tarslaves. ”

"What do you mean?" Chen Cheng asked.

Gao Tang said: "But I think the Tatars will not give up easily. There will be a second crazy comeback. ”

Listening to Gao Tang's words, Chen Cheng also nodded. After a moment of silence, he said, "Then let them come!" This time we must not underestimate the enemy. ”

Gao Tang said: "Not only can you not underestimate the enemy in the future, but you can't underestimate the enemy now." Even if the Tatar army comes to attack every time it is a show, we have to take it seriously. Besides, if you can kill one Tatar, you can kill one. ”

"Yes, General Gao, you're right. This time, we must make meritorious contributions. The letter said that His Majesty would be coming next month. We have to be prepared. Chen Cheng said.

Gao Tang said: "Yes, Your Majesty is coming this time, I don't know if the Tatar army will attack or not!" ”

Chen Cheng said: "General Gao, I heard that there is a great drought north of the river this year, and the grain harvest of the Tatar people must be poor. Whether the Tatars still have the heart to fight is a different matter! ”

"Well, if it's a big drought. It's really hard to say. Gao Tang nodded and said.

Chen Cheng said again: "General Gao, no matter what, now that our army has enough men and horses, we will wait for work in this easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Pingliang Prefecture, and let the Tatars come if they are not convinced!" Ha ha. ”
