Chapter 254: The Prime Minister Returns to Heaven
Hua An ran eagerly to the backyard, and asked loudly before he entered the door: "Mrs. gave birth, is it a male baby or a female baby." β
"Oops! General, it's the general who is back. The maids in the courtyard were a little surprised.
"Congratulations to the general, my wife just gave birth and is a male baby."
"General, let's go in and have a look!"
A few maids urged with a smile.
"Great, it's a boy." Hua An was extremely happy in his heart, and hurriedly entered the room and walked to the side of the soft couch.
"What's wrong with Madame?" Seeing Wang Ling's eyes slightly closed, Hua An asked worriedly.
"The general can rest assured, the mother and son are safe, the lady is tired, and it is not in the way."
"Okay, that's good." When Hua An saw that his wife was safe, he was relieved.
"Since the general is here, let's all go down!" Seeing Hua An coming in, Wen Po slowly withdrew from the house with a few maids.
At this time, the newborn baby doll is lying in the arms of her mother, sucking sweet milk, and from time to time making a crisp sound of 'balabala'.
Hua An sat lightly on the side of the soft couch, stroked Wang Ling's sweaty forehead, and said softly: "Madam, it's hard work, look at our children, how cute!" Breastfeeding? β
"Hmm." Wang Ling may have been too tired, so he just answered softly.
Hua An leaned down slightly, kissed the little doll's face, and kissed Wang Ling's face.
Seeing his wife and son lying safely in front of him, Hua An felt extremely happy, and even felt that his whole heart was about to melt.
After the little doll finished feeding, Hua An held it in his arms, walked around the house, and kissed the two from time to time.
"Baby, daddy's little baby, grow up quickly, grow up and become a general, okay!" Hua An hummed quietly in the room.
With a "creak", the door was pushed open, and a little maid walked in, with no joy on her face.
Hua An glanced up at the little maid and wondered, "What's the matter?" β
"General, Steward Li from the Prime Minister's Mansion is here, waiting in the front yard." The little maid lowered her head and said softly.
A few months ago, the imperial court was promoted to prime minister because of the outstanding achievements of Situ Wang, and Situ Mansion was naturally renamed the Prime Minister's Mansion.
And this Steward Li is naturally Li Shang, whom Hua An knew when he was a child, and Hua An should have been happy to see Li Shang come in person, but since the expression of the young maid, Hua An's head always had some ominous premonitions, as if something big had happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Husband, who's coming?" Wang Ling's body was a little weak after giving birth, and his voice was a little weak.
"Madam, it's Brother Li Shang of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he must have come to congratulate Madame on her happy son, and go out to have a look for her husband." Hua An said and put the baby back next to Wang Ling, walked out of the door with the little girl, and walked to the front yard.
"Brother Li Shang, don't come unharmed!" Hua An entered the main hall and bowed to Li Shang.
"Don't dare, don't dare." Li Shang bowed his hand in return, with a stern expression.
It is an extremely happy thing that he likes his noble son, and Li Shang has always paid attention to etiquette, and it is impossible to have such an expression without heavy things.
"Brother Li Shang, is there something wrong with the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Hua An asked softly.
Li Shang nodded, frowned, and said, "Something happened, something big, just a moment ago, my master returned to heaven." β
"What, my father-in-law has returned to heaven." Although he had a premonition, when Li Shang told the truth, Hua An'an still couldn't help but be shocked.
"My beloved son has just been born, and my father-in-law has returned to heaven, what a joy and a sorrow!" Hua An paced a few steps in the main hall and muttered to himself.
"Yes! Miss is now weak, Mrs. asked me not to tell Miss SΓΉ first, stay for two days, Miss is better, and then it is not too late. Li Shang said worriedly.
"Okay, that's all, then let's hide it for two days!" Huaan nodded.
"Take care, uncle, I'll go home first." Li Shang waved his hand and turned to leave.
"Little beans, send them to Steward Li." Hua An said politely.
After Li Shang left, Hua An became worried, the Northern Expedition was imminent, and the sudden death of the first auxiliary minister of the dynasty was definitely a big blow to the great cause of the Northern Expedition.
Although Wang Dao did not understand the art of war and could not fight, he still had a strong strategic mind, and was especially good at balancing the interests of various factions in the court, which played an important role in the stability of the imperial court.
Now, Wang Dao is gone, in case there is a disagreement within the court during the Northern Expedition, it is very likely that the Northern Expedition will fail.
The deceased is gone, and it is useless to worry, Hua An put down his worries and walked to the backyard with vigor.
"You all listen well, don't tell Mrs. SΓΉ what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion, make me happy." Hua An admonished everyone in the house.
"Yes, General." Everyone answered, and went to work.
Hua An stood in front of the door of the house, took a deep breath, pushed the door into the room, and walked to the side of the soft couch.
"Husband, you're back." Wang Ling smiled when he saw Hua An return to the house.
"Haha! Madame's complexion is much better than just now, come, sit up and let her husband take a good look. Hua An smiled and helped Wang Ling up.
Wang Ling sat up straight, hugged his beloved son in his arms, and said softly: "Husband, look, our child is hungry again, and he just fed it?" β
Hua An looked at it, the little baby was lying in Wang Ling's arms with his eyes closed, a small mouth was sucking his mother's milk, and two fleshy little hands were grabbing Wang Ling's chest.
"Haha, I can eat well! The more the baby eats, the faster he grows, and he will be a tall and handsome young man in the future, right? Daddy's little baby. Hua An said and coaxed his son.
"Well, in the future, my mother's baby must be a handsome young man, just like your father." Wang Ling stroked the back of his beloved son in his arms and laughed intoxicatedly.
Looking at the ** beloved son in front of him, Hua An had never been so intoxicated, and his heart melted over and over again.
######
Two days later, the Prime Minister's Mansion held a funeral, and the princes and nobles of the capital, officials at all levels, whether they were supporters of Wang Dao, or opposites, all wore filial piety clothes and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see off the veteran of the three dynasties.
Emperor Sima Yan heard that Wang Daoxian was going, and he hid his face, and ordered to mourn for three days, and sent Da Honglu to guard the funeral, and the gift of ceremonial gifts, compared with Huo Guang and Anping in the Han Dynasty to offer Wang Sima Fu.
The next day, Wang Dao was buried, and Emperor Sima Yan gave Jiuyou a chariot, Huangwu Zuoxu, front and rear Yubao advocacy, and Wu Benban sword hundreds, the specification is the highest among all the ministers' funerals, which is enough to show the special status of Wang Dao as a veteran of the three dynasties.
The Northern Expedition was imminent, Hua'an did not dare to stay in the mansion for too long, and after attending the funeral of Wang Dao, Hua'an only rested in the mansion for a day, and then rode back to the camp of the Northern Expeditionary Army.
