Chapter 219: Tim Ding
Wuzhong, Xiang Guan's mansion.
"Xiang Tuo's child, you don't know how to lift it so much" Xiang Guan threw the wine bud in his hand to the ground hard, only to hear a clang, and the bronze wine bud was smashed to pieces by him, Xiang Guan couldn't help but be angry, because the messenger he had just sent to show favor was once again pushed back by Xiang Tuo, and he was humiliated by Xiang Tuo.
Lu Yuan, who was sitting at the bottom of the crown, sighed and said, "It seems that Xiang Tuo can't win him over." ”
"Why?" Xiang Guan patted the table in front of him vigorously, and said hysterically, "But why is this?" I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out, I've already promised that once he inherits the throne, he will be named a general, can Xiang Zhuang also make him a general? Or can Xiang Zhuang make him the commander of Chu State? ”
"Anyway, Xiang Tuo is determined to welcome Xiang Zhuang across the river, the key now is Xiang He's attitude, if Xiang also falls to Xiang Zhuang, the situation will be quite unfavorable." Lu Yuan said this, and said, "The top priority is to send someone to contact Xiang He as soon as possible, and it is best to join forces with Xiang He to fight against the alliance of Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Tuo." ”
"Xiang he?" Xiang Guan said disapprehantly, "This kid believes that he is a descendant of the Xiang family, his eyes are above the top, and he has never put me and Xiang Tuo in his eyes. If he can put down the shelf and join forces with us, then there will be a ghost. ”
Lu Yuan shook his head and said: "At this time and that time, at that time, the general and Xiang Tuo were evenly matched, Xiang He only had to maintain neutrality, so as not to break the balance of Jiangdong, as long as the situation was balanced, Xiang he could profit from it, but now the situation has changed, once Xiang Tuo and Xiang Zhuang join forces, the general will be at a disadvantage, if Xiang He still wants to maintain the balance of Jiangdong, the best choice is to join forces with the general to fight against Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Tuo." ”
"Oh, so?" Xiang Guan was a little moved when he heard this, and said, "Okay, then quickly send someone to find out Xiang and his tone." ”
"Whoa." Lu Yuan responded, and hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
After less than half an hour, the person sent to Xiang He's mansion came back, Xiang He did not agree to Xiang Guan's request, only said that the dark tide in Wuzhong City was turbulent, and there were too many eyes and ears of Xiang Tuo and Xiang Zhuang hidden, and it was best for the two families not to have too much contact, so they proposed to go to Gaoshan Mountain fifty miles north of the city after seven days.
"To Gaoshan?" Xiang Guan frowned and said, "What does Xiang he mean by this?" What is there to discuss in the city, so I have to go to the deep mountains and old forests dozens of miles away? ”
Lu Yuandao: "The general went to Gaoshan in the name of hunting, and secretly discussed with Xiang He, it is true that he can avoid Xiang Tuo and Xiang Zhuang arranged in Wuzhong City, but Gaoshan Mountain is high and dense, and after entering the mountain, the safety of the general is a big problem, once the news is leaked, Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Tuo will preset an ambush in the mountain, and the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"It's nothing." Xiang Guan waved his hand and said, "I'll just take the pro-army there." ”
Xiang Guan's 3,000 pro-soldiers are all veterans of a hundred battles, with these 3,000 elite soldiers accompanying him for protection, what else can happen? In the final analysis, Xiang Tuo's 20,000 troops are stationed in the west of the city, and as for Xiang Zhuang's tens of thousands of troops, they have always been stationed in Liyang, Jiangbei.
Lu Yuan thought about it, and said worriedly: "General, the five hundred elite cavalry of Gao Chu are stationed in the north of the city." ”
"Lu Yuan, you're too worried." Xiang Guan frowned and said, "It's not that General Ben underestimated Gao Chu, just with his five hundred horsemen, if he really fights, it is not enough for General Ben's three thousand pro-troops to stuff his teeth, and besides, the camp in the east of the city is only sixty miles away from Gaoshan, and General Ben's 40,000 troops can arrive within two hours, what can happen?" ”
Lu Yuan originally wanted to say that the more than 1,000 veterans who retired and returned to their hometowns were also a threat, but after thinking about it, these veterans of the Chu army were able to return to their hometowns after a hundred battles, and it is doubtful whether they will return to the battlefield after experiencing countless bloody storms and enjoying the current luxurious life.
Seeing that Lu Yuan did not say anything against it, Xiang Guan said: "Then it is decided, seven days later, General Ben will lead 3,000 pro-troops to Gaoshan to hunt, and by the way, relieve boredom, in the past half a year, General Ben has really been bored, hum"
##########
When Xiang He and Gao Chu were in full swing preparing to hunt Xiang Guan, Xiang Zhuang was busy welcoming Xinding, Wei Yue was pregnant for ten months and was finally about to give birth. At this moment, Xiang Zhuang was pacing back and forth in the backyard, and the look on his face was also rare anxious.
Speaking of which, Xiang Zhuang has not tasted this kind of anxiety for a long time, even when the remnants of the Chu army fell into the net of Zhang Liang and Chen Ping in the Dabie Mountains, Xiang Zhuang did not seem to be so anxious, this is also because Wei Yue's birth of a child is completely out of Xiang Zhuang's control, and Xiang Zhuang will inevitably be anxious about things that he cannot control.
In the bedroom with the door hidden, Wei Yue's hoarse cries could be heard from time to time, and occasionally Yu Ji's voice could be heard, and Yu Ji was trying her best to persuade Wei Yue to relax and relax.
After a while, the hidden door suddenly opened, and a stable woman walked out with a basin of water.
Xiang Zhuang rushed forward to stop Wen Po like an arrow, and said impatiently: "Have you given birth?" ”
Wen Po smiled bitterly, but before she could answer, Xiang Zhuang turned away again, in fact, as a traverser, although Xiang Zhuang had not seen the scene of a woman's birth with his own eyes, he had seen a lot on TV, if Wei Yue was really born, how could there be a baby's cry? Many wordsThe reason why he stepped forward to ask just now was completely an instinctive reaction.
In the antechamber of the general's retreat, a large group of Chu army generals were also anxiously waiting for news.
This group of generals are all Wei people, and the leader is Pang Yu, no matter what, Wei Yue is the former princess of Great Wei, and now although the Great Wei Kingdom has died, emotionally, these generals have always regarded themselves as Wei people, so Wei Yue's childbirth is particularly affecting their hearts, and they all hope that Princess Wei Yue can give birth to a boy.
In the suffocating waiting, two hours passed quickly, but in the bedroom, I only saw Wen Po in and out, but I never heard the baby's cry, and later, Wei Yue couldn't even scream, Xiang Zhuang suddenly felt bad, you need to know that there is no caesarean section in this era, once the fetal position is not in place to form dystocia, the result is likely to be the death of both mother and child
Suddenly, Xiang Zhuang oozed a bean-sized cold sweat on his forehead, if it was really a difficult birth, then it was a big question to protect the adult or the child, reason told him that he should choose to keep the child, but emotionally, Xiang Zhuang would rather not have a child than keep Wei Yue, not only because Xiang Zhuang pitied her in his heart, but also because this little lady was pure-hearted, and it could be said that she was the best choice for the queen.
After another moment, seeing that there was no movement in the bedroom, Xiang Zhuang finally couldn't hold it back, just when he couldn't help but want to rush into the bedroom and let the midwife's stable woman abandon the child to keep the adult, Wei Yue's hoarse scream came from the bedroom, followed by a very loud baby cry.
"Woo wow, woo wow, woo wow......" After this cry, it was out of control, and in an instant, there was only that loud cry left in the bedroom, and Xiang Zhuang couldn't hear any other sound in his ears. Did Yue Niang really give birth?
The door of the false room was suddenly pushed open, and Xiang Zhuang was a little surprised that the first one to rush out of the room was Yu Ji, at this time, Yu Ji was already so excited that her face was red, because of excessive joy, and even tears fell in her beautiful eyes, and then Yu Ji saluted Xiang Zhuang and said: "Congratulations to the general, Wuyang sister gave birth to two boys, mother and son are safe"
"Two boys? Yue Niang actually gave birth to two boys? Xiang Zhuang was suddenly filled with great happiness.
In other words, since crossing into this time and space, Xiang Zhuang has always struggled on the line of death, and he has not had a day of peace, let alone a trace of happiness, but today, he finally received a gift from the goddess of life, and he got two sons at once, and he Xiang Zhuang has a queen, haha.
When Xiang Zhuang strode into the bedroom, Wen Po had already washed the two baby boys and wrapped them in swaddling clothes.
Xiang Zhuang took over his son from the hands of the two stable women, one left and one right hugged in his arms, the one on the right is the boss, who is sleeping with his eyes closed, and the little face that has not yet melted away is a calm appearance of pampering and not being shocked, the one on the left is the old 2, but he is struggling with two little hands, and he is crying, while crying, he keeps looking at Xiang Zhuang with big black eyes, needless to say, the one who just cried should be the old 2, this kid was born so earth-shattering, and he must be a character in the future.
Xiang Zhuang put the two sons at the head of the bed, smiled softly at Wei Yue, and said, "Yue Niang, you have suffered. ”
"Yue Niang is not bitter." Wei Yue smiled extremely weakly, and said with a dying breath, "It is a great blessing for Yue Niang to be able to give birth to two boys for her husband, husband, Yue Niang is so happy in her heart, really." ”
"My husband's heart is also full of joy." Xiang Zhuang leaned down and kissed Wei Yue on the forehead, and said, "Yue Niang, you are tired for almost two hours, hurry up and get a good night's sleep, for the husband, take the child to the front yard, you gave birth to two boys at once, Pang Yu They don't know what they will be happy about, hehe." ”
"Hmm." Wei Yue hummed softly, closed her beautiful eyes and soon fell asleep.
Xiang Zhuang stroked the hair on Wei Yue's cheeks with pity, and then picked up the two sons again, but when he picked up the two sons again, he thought of the late old military master Wei Yu for no reason, and for a moment, Xiang Zhuang felt a little pantothenic acid in his nose, if the old man was still alive, he didn't know how happy he would be.
Thinking of Wei Yi, Xiang Zhuang had already named his two sons in his heart.
Wei Mi is dying, hoping that he Xiang Zhuang will pacify Jiangdong through political means, rather than using force, which contains the old man's extremely high expectations for him, obviously, Wei Yu hopes that he Xiang Zhuang can become politically mature, so Wei Yuesheng's two sons, the eldest is called Xiang Zheng, and the second is called Xiang Zhi.
