Volume 2 The Yellow Turban Rebellion Chapter 27 Xiang Ping was born
Coincidentally, the book was not written, and Xiang Ao's son was born in the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
"Jun Hou, Jun Hou, Madame is born, Madame is born!"
Just when Xiang Ao and a kind of Wenchen military general were waiting anxiously outside, there was a surprise snoring from the midwife in the room!
Originally, Xiang Ao was already so nervous that he was sweating all over, and listening to Cai Yan's screams of not listening to the shouts coming from inside the house, Xiang Ao's heart was entangled. Suddenly hearing the call from the midwife, the nervous Xiang Ao suddenly relaxed his body and mind and almost fell to the ground.
"Lord!" Xi Zhong stepped forward to help Xiang Ao and teased slightly: "What's the matter?" Cold? ”
Xiang Ao glanced at Xi Zhong and forced himself to stabilize his mind. Hu Zhao also walked over, glared at Xi Zhong fiercely, and said to Xiang Ao: "Congratulations to the lord!" ”
Xiang Ao didn't know how to answer at this time, but nodded a little excitedly.
"Jun Hou, Jun Hou, Mrs. gave birth to a little Jun Hou, it is a little Jun Hou!" The midwife finally opened the door in anticipation and shouted at everyone.
Xiang Ao saw the door open, and asked very cautiously, "Wife, how is my wife?" ”
"Peace of mind, peace of mind for mother and child!" The midwife looked at Xiang Ao and liked it even more, but she never thought that Xiang Ao's first question was to care about whether his wife was safe. The midwife has been delivering babies in the northern regions for several years, and she has always cared about whether the child is male or female. And the champion Hou in front of him is really surprised that he cares about the safety of his own people.
"Peace is good, peace is good!" Xiang Ao rubbed his hands a little worriedly: "Then do you want to go into the room to see my wife at this time?" ”
"Huh!" Seeing Xiang Ao's expression, the product couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Jun Hou can naturally enter!" ”
When Xiang Ao heard this, he didn't say more, rushed into the delivery room, ignored the child in the hands of the midwife, and leaned over to Cai Yan's side.
"How is Yan'er?" Xiang Ao grabbed Cai Yan's soft hand and asked worriedly.
At this time, Cai Yan didn't have the strength to answer, but just shook his head with a light smile, indicating that he was fine.
"Hard work!" Xiang Ao let go of his worries when he heard this, gently wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead for Cai Yan, stood up and said, "Yan'er, rest, let me see how Wu'er is?" ”
Cai Yan nodded with satisfaction and still did not speak.
Xiang Ao unfamiliarly took over the newborn baby only the size of Xiang Ao's palm from the midwife, and was very moved. The newborn child did not open his eyes, and his face was full of wrinkles, let alone overly visible hair. Xiang Ao was stunned for a while, his mind was completely like thousands of sycophants rushing by, and he secretly shouted in his heart: This is Wu'er? This is my son???
"Gentleman, all newborn children are like this, and they will be able to see what they look like in a while!" As soon as he saw Xiang Ao's expression when he was holding Xiao Junhou's product, he knew that Xiang Ao didn't know why, so he stepped forward to explain.
"Oh oh oh!" Xiang Ao agreed awkwardly, and then handed Xiao Junhou back to the midwife. secretly said in my heart: I can't be funny, and I can't see the appearance clearly, newborn children are really strange. If the midwife learns that her father thinks so, she will definitely wonder if she is Xiang Ao's biological child.
The people outside the house didn't know what was going on in the delivery room, and it was inconvenient to enter, so they had to be secretly anxious outside the room!
"Kong Ming, I don't know what Xiaojun looks like, and I don't know what a newborn child looks like after more than 20 years of loyalty!"
"Curiosity is very much, as long as you know that the master mother and the son are safe, Zhicai thinks a lot!" Hu Zhao looked at Xi Zhong with some annoyance and shouted softly. In fact, Hu Zhao is also very novel, but because of his temperament, Hu Zhao is not easy to show. But how can the drama loyalty, who has been with each other for a long time, not be able to see it.
"Kong Ming usually speaks righteously, why is he so dishonest today?" Xi Zhong looked at Hu Zhao playfully and asked directly.
"Ahem, cough, cough..."When Hu Zhao heard this, he coughed a few times in embarrassment, touched his nose and stopped talking.
The next day, Xiang Ao announced to the Northern Regions that in order to celebrate the birth of his son, the naturalized people of the entire Northern Regions would be exempted from poll tax for one year. coincided with the Spring Festival, and the people of the Northern Regions cheered and cheered after learning the news. is not only happy that Xiang Ao met and paid taxes, but also happy that Xiang Ao gave birth to a boy. Having said that, how much the people in the Northern Regions can pay a year in capitation taxes, as long as there is a slight surplus, ordinary families have not paid attention to it.
"My lord, if the poll tax is reduced for one year, the taxes paid to the imperial court can be paid by the general's mansion, so I'm afraid..."
"Kong Ming doesn't have to worry, I know the stakes." Xiang Ao waved his hand to stop Hu Zhao and said: "Kong Ming should also understand that seventy percent of the taxes in my northern region actually come from merchant taxes, not to mention that there are so many so-called 'official leased land', it doesn't matter!" ”
Hu Zhao thought about it, so that the implementation of Xiang Ao's decree might also save some people's hearts for the son who had just been born.
"There is also the matter of rebuilding and relocating people in Lady Fan City after the beginning of the year, and the thousands of people who moved in a hurry cannot solve the problem of Lady Fan City at all."
"Lord, it is indeed difficult to relocate, Lady Fan City is too far away from the surrender city and the declining city! Most people don't want to leave their homes! ”
Xiang Ao frowned when he heard this, and thought for a while: "Then I will write to the imperial court again, inform Mrs. Fan of the situation in Lady City truthfully, and then tell us our thoughts to see if we can move refugees from other states and counties." ”
"That's all for now!" Hu Zhao nodded, made a note, and prepared to write a chapter tomorrow and submit it to Luoyang.
"The matter of the garrison is handled very well, and if there is any overflow in the future, it will be dealt with in this way for the time being. I'll talk about it when I come up with something else! ”
"My lord, my Northern Regions are getting stronger and stronger, and I believe that I need to re-divide the soldiers and horses in the Northern Regions into camps to facilitate management and scheduling!" Xi Zhong has thought about this problem for a long time, if it weren't for Xiang Ao being ordered to go to Madame Fan City, Xi Zhong would have wanted to carry out military reform a long time ago.
"Oh?!" Xiang Ao was curious for a while, he wanted to reorganize the army, but he didn't want Xi Zhong to propose it today, so he said: "Zhicai has won my heart, and Zhicai will come up with some plans as soon as possible for discussion!" ”
"No!" Originally, Xi Zhong had a draft, but when he heard what Xiang Ao said today, he also understood that Xiang Ao had some ideas, so he planned to go back and think about it carefully before submitting it to Xiang Ao.
The three of them discussed many political matters that had been delayed one by one, especially the matter of setting up the hierarchy of the people. The level of the people that was briefly set before was not perfect, and many people even exploited its loopholes to improve their ranks. Although it was later discovered, it was not too much punishment, just a warning, after all, the new deal will take a lot of time to improve.
This is especially true for the immigrants of the foreigners.
As for the son of Xiang Ao, who had just been born, Xiang Ao named him Ping, intending to be peaceful. In the eyes of Xiang Ao and Cai Yan, as long as Xiang Ping's life is safe, it is fine. Although Xiang Ao felt that the world would be in chaos, if it was really chaotic, Xiang Ao was confident that he would calm down the chaos in his lifetime. If it is not chaotic, after Xiang Ao is Liu Hongqing and his monarch is on the side of Kuang to help the Han, he will retire to the rivers and lakes and let the descendants live in peace for a lifetime.
In the name of peace, Xiang Ao hopes that the world can be as prosperous as Kangping, and the people can be healthy. also hopes that if the world is uneven, Xiang Ao also hopes that Xiang Ping can inherit his will and benefit the people.
Although the Northern Regions was happy, it had no impact on other states and counties. There are so many people in the Han Dynasty, and there are countless new children born every day, except for relatives and friends, who cares about Xiang Ping's birth?
After the rejoicing, all the officials and people in the northern region were immersed in the matter of cultivating in early spring. Even if Cai Yan gave birth to a son for Xiang Ao, for most people, whether their lives are stable and whether they are rich in the coming year still depends on how well they harvest their crops. Soon, the northern regions returned to their former tranquility, farming, grazing, and drilling, and all parts of the northern regions were thriving.
Xiang Ao held the congratulatory letters sent by Cao Cao, Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan in his hands, and he missed it very much. The three of them are all elder Xiang Ao, although it is not explained, Xiang Ao has always regarded the three of them as brothers in his heart. The three of them also have a heart, and the celebratory things given to Xiang Ping are not vulgar property.
What Cao Cao sent was Cao Cao's collection of various handbooks for many years, and there were even many originals, which were extremely precious, and he instructed Xiang Ao to cultivate his nephew who had never met well, and to learn something in the future and serve the Han. As for Lu Bu and Gongsun Zhan, who are more partial to military generals, they respectively sent small weapons made of precious Xuantie and Youzhou good horse cubs, hoping that Xiang Ping would inherit his father's will and defend the border in the future.
The three of them all expressed in their letters that they wanted to come in person, but Gongsun Zan and Wu Huan mediated, Lu Bu was recruited by the newly appointed Bingzhou Assassin Shi as the main Bo, and Cao Cao was unable to visit due to some affairs at home, which made Xiang Ao deeply regretful. Even so, Xiang Ao still returned the favor generously.
The gift of the three extraterritorial BMWs means that in the future, they can witness the barbarians with the three of them and defend the Han Dynasty. It is difficult to know oneself in life, Xiang Ao is lucky, and he is three people when he gets it, which is enough to comfort his life. Even if he is thousands of miles away, he can't erase Xiang Ao's friendship with the three of them.
When you meet and know each other, you are a confidant. But the world is impermanent, and who knows what the future holds? The general trend of the world cannot be changed by one's own power, there have been many heroes since ancient times, but how many heroes have been wiped out in the torrent of history? Xiang Ao doesn't know what will happen to everyone in the future, but he cherishes the many friendships in front of him at the moment, so as not to regret it in the future.
I don't know why, in the dark, Xiang Ao always has lingering thoughts in his heart, and he always feels that he will meet Cao Cao in the future, the more so, the more Xiang Ao cherishes every meeting with Cao Cao. Especially Lu Bu, every time Xiang Ao saw Lu Bu, he had thoughts in his heart, thinking that Lu Bu would go to a place of no return in the future. Even Gongsun Zhan, who is the queen of the wealthy family in Youzhou, Xiang Ao also feels that Gongsun Chan will not die well.
Every time he thought of this, Xiang Ao was worried and had to comfort himself and think about it, even if the world was in turmoil, Lu Bu and Gongsun Zhan would be able to save themselves. But the lingering thoughts in his heart made Xiang Ao feel deeply bored.
Xiang Ping's birth did not make too many waves. The people everywhere are still suffering, the factional battles in the court are becoming more and more intense, and after the eunuchs gain power, they are even more tyrannical, and the frightening darkness haunts the sky over the Han all day long.
"Lord, the matter of the reorganization of the army, Zhong has a first draft, and I ask the lord to check and decide!"
On that day, Xi Zhong took the manuscript and handed it to Xiang Ao after considering the reorganization of the army for several days. Xiang Ao took Xi Zhong's handwriting, looked at it carefully, and nodded frequently.
