Zhao Yan took Lao Fu to the front yard, only to see that the open space in the front yard was densely packed with people kneeling on the ground, including men and women, old and young, and the leader was Zhao Yan's personal guard Lin Hu, this burly man was holding an eight or nine-year-old boy in his hand, and a woman in her thirties kneeling next to him, who seemed to be his family.

"What's the matter, Lin Hu, what are you going to do?" Zhao Yan walked over and asked with a calm face, just now Lao Fu reported to him, saying that Lin Hu and the others were leaving, although he had already guessed the reason, but he still asked deliberately.

"Qiyu County King, last time it was because of our carelessness that the county king was kidnapped by thieves, such a big mistake is really unforgivable, and now the military department has issued an order, ordering me to leave the capital immediately and go to Gyeongju to serve." When he said this, Lin Hu paused for a moment and then said, "Actually, even if there is no order from the Ministry of War, I don't have the face to stay in the county king's mansion anymore, so today's subordinates are here to say goodbye to the county king!" ”

"You wait here, this king will go to the military department and ask them to withdraw the order!" Zhao Yan heard this, but he didn't think about it and said, there were many reasons why he was kidnapped last time, and they couldn't all be blamed on Lin Hu and their poor guards, not to mention that although Lin Hu had followed him all these years without credit, he was also very hard working every day, and for such subordinates, Zhao Yan was naturally reluctant to let them go.

"The king of the county can't, as the so-called military order is like a mountain, since the military department has issued an order. Then there is no change, in addition, we follow Zhao Yan's side, and we also know some things, Gyeongju is very close to Western Xia, and it is a good opportunity to make contributions, so for us. Transferring to Gyeongju may not be a bad thing! Lin Hu spoke again at this time.

"Although there is an opportunity to make contributions in Gyeongju, are you really willing to give up your family and abandon your children to fight for your life?" Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked, the war of the Great Song Dynasty against Western Xia is about to start, and it is indeed a good opportunity to make contributions, but it needs to be exchanged for life.

"Don't worry, since the day we joined the army, we know what we want to do, and we can't bear this body. Where can I give my children and grandchildren the opportunity to get out of the way? Lin Hu said very heroically at this time, in fact, he was also telling the truth, although his life here in Zhao Yan was comfortable, but he had no chance of meritorious promotion, he didn't have anything, after all, with the position of this leader, he would be able to give his son a background in the future, but his brothers were different. If they don't give it a go, I'm afraid they won't be reconciled. So this appointment is really not a bad thing for them.

Hearing Lin Hu say this, he looked at the other guards behind him who also showed impassioned expressions, which made Zhao Yan no longer able to stop him, and finally had to speak: "Okay, since that's the case, then the king won't stop you." However, your family members don't have to leave in a hurry, they will stay in the courtyard for the time being, and it will not be too late to pick them up after you have returned from your meritorious service! ”

"Thank you, King Jun!" Lin Hu didn't shirk when he heard this, their family had been living in another courtyard, but now they were transferred. So it's a little inappropriate to live here again, but since the king of the county has spoken, he also agrees, after all, it is not easy for them to settle their families before leaving the capital.

The military department was very anxious about Lin Hu's order, and the next day he left with his soldiers, and Zhao Yan also personally went to see them off, speaking of which Gyeongju was originally one of the border cities of the Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia, Lin Hu and they were mobilized there, and it is estimated that they should be sent to the battlefield in the future.

After Lin Hu was transferred, the new head of the palace was also quickly transferred, the other party was a black and strong man, his name was Niu Lie, although he looked very rude on the outside, but in fact he was a brave and resourceful man, who used to be the commander of the forbidden army in the palace, this time because of Zhao Yan's kidnapping, Zhao Shu was worried about his safety in the future, so he specially transferred Niu Lie to Zhao Yan.

Niu Lie is steady and thoughtful, objectively speaking, he is indeed much stronger than Lin Hu, Zhao Yan was a little uncomfortable at first, but after a while, he slowly got used to the change of the head of the guard around him.

After a few more days, Zhao Yan's county palace finally ushered in a great joy, that is, Yelusi was about to give birth, last time Xue Ninger gave birth to Zhao Yan's first child, although it was Zhao Yan's favorite daughter, but others didn't think so, such as Princess Bao'an and Princess Shoukang, they were all looking forward to Yelusi being able to give birth to a boy, of course, Cao Ying was jealous again, and every day she muttered that Yelusi must have given birth to a girl.

After dinner that night, Zhao Yan personally helped Yelusi back to the room to rest, during this time, he would take out some time to accompany Yelusi almost every day, after all, the days are counted, and the due date is only in these days, although there are maids waiting, but Zhao Yan is still very worried.

However, just when Zhao Yan helped Yelusi halfway through, he suddenly only heard her "ah", and at the same time covered her towering belly with his hands, which made Zhao Yan ask worriedly: "What's wrong, are you going to give birth?" ”

"I ...... I don't know, but my stomach suddenly hurt just now, ah~" Yelusi screamed in pain again when she said the end, and at the same time her face showed a look of pain, she was also giving birth for the first time, and she had no experience in this area at all, although she had been mentally prepared before, but when the production came, she still couldn't help but be a little nervous.

Zhao Yan is also half a doctor, and when he saw this situation, he immediately understood what was going on, and he immediately asked Yelusi to help him to the room, and at the same time informed Wen Po, who had long lived in the house, and Cao Yan and Zhilugu, two miracle doctors who lived in the microcosm, after all, no one could guarantee that there would be no accidents during the production process, and with the two of them, it was equivalent to two more lives.

With the news that Yelusi was going to produce, the entire county palace began to boil and get busy, even if he had the experience of Xue Ning'er's production last time, but when it came to the end, the entire county palace was still in chaos, even Cao Ying was a little messy, and the subordinates who commanded the entire palace were in a mess.

Compared with Xue Ning'er, Yelusi has the blood of the Khitan people flowing in her body after all, and she has been used to riding horses and hunting since she was a child, so compared to Han women, her body is much stronger, and the birth of a child is also very smooth.

"Congratulations to the county king, congratulations to the county king, he is a little county lord!" Although Wen Po's wrinkled face smiled like a flower, but this smile looked a little stiff, but this is also very understandable, after all, Wen Po also knows that Zhao Yan already has a county lord, and now she has given birth to another county lord, which is not good news for many people, and even anger is possible, she has seen it more than once before, so I'm afraid her reward will be in vain.

"Hahahaha~, not bad, good rewards!" To Wenpo's surprise, Zhao Yan not only did not get angry, but also laughed and rewarded, as if giving birth to two daughters in a row was not only not discouraged, but it was still a very happy thing.

Although Wen Po was puzzled, at least the reward money had been obtained, which made the smile on her face even brighter, and there was a series of congratulations at the moment, and she got a lot of reward money from Zhao Yan, who was extremely excited.

However, compared to Zhao Yan's happiness, Princess Bao'an and Princess Shoukang, who were bent on hoping that Yelusi would give birth to a boy, both showed disappointed looks, and even began to worry about whether Zhao Yan would be like some people, who could only have daughters in their lifetime.

Xue Ning'er, who was holding Xiao Siyue, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that Yelusi had also given birth to a daughter, people are not sages, not to mention that she is a woman, she gave birth to a daughter before, although Zhao Yan likes it very much, but she still has some self-blame in her heart, but now Yelusi has also given birth to a daughter, which is equivalent to one more person to share, which makes her feel much more relaxed.

"Quick...... Go and report the good news to the palace, and don't leave your relatives behind! At this moment, Cao Ying's voice of ordering people came from the courtyard, and it was also a happy event for Zhao Yan to have a daughter, so it was customary to report the good news to the palace and relatives and friends, just looking at her eyebrows and dancing, I am afraid that Cao Ying's heart was also happy, because her previous chatter finally worked again.

Zhao Yan didn't care about men and women, and even liked his daughter more in comparison, but when he saw Cao Ying's happy appearance at this time, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and immediately walked over and pulled her aside and whispered: "Lady, even if Si'er gives birth to a daughter as you want, but you have to pay attention to the impact, don't show that Xiàn is so obviously good!" ”

"Giggle~, I'm happy not only because of this incident, but I found that I was really blessed by God, I wanted to marry a good husband, but my husband became what I am now, my husband was in distress outside, I hope my husband returns safely, but my husband came back unharmed twice, I hope that I was the first to give birth to a boy for my husband, and as a result, Ning'er and Si'er both gave birth to daughters, so husband, do you say that I am favored by God?" Cao Ying smiled brightly and said with a flower-like smile.

"Crazy, you are really crazy, since you are so favored by God, then why have you not been able to conceive a child?" Zhao Yan was very speechless and said, the main reason why Cao Ying thought like this was because of pregnancy, so she would have this kind of marginal thought psychologically. (To be continued......)
