The Karakoram Cult was included in the Governor's Order. Those killers who have reached the age of 16 are all in the army, guarding the border passes, and they cannot return to the imperial capital in this life. Exile under the age of 16, depending on the performance, if the performance is good, you can be released back to the imperial capital and continue to live a civilian life.

In addition, those captive women, all the families returned home, the local county government will issue the corresponding pension, if you can't find your in-laws' family in the future, you can go to the county government to make a living, and when you are old, you will be adopted by Yifang.

The homelessness is all taken care of by the locality. Charity workshops have been set up in various localities to shelter these homeless and incapable people. Will send them what they can. Guarantee their livelihood, and the matter is over.

As a result of the declaration of war on the outside world, Gao Zhiguo was destroyed and the Western Turks fled abroad. The main transportation routes to various countries are under the jurisdiction of Tiandu. The small tribal states submitted to the Tiandu Empire one after another. Tiandu trade is more convenient, the economy is more frequent, the economic strength is stronger, and the national strength is getting stronger day by day.

Pei Shengyuan is fulfilling the promise of a Ming Jun. That's for later.

Yiwu Chengchi, Zhang Shan, Yang Cheng, and Princess Yongjing were waiting for their group.

When Princess Yongjing saw Zhang Shan, she kept asking him about the way to strengthen the army. When Zhang Shan asked Princess Yongjing a few questions, she was silent.

Zhang Shan asked, "Princess Yongjing, how many soldiers are there in your country?" How much can it be increased per year? How much is the military replenishment per year? How much is the military silver taels? ”

Princess Yongjing replied truthfully one by one.

After listening to the answer, Zhang Shan was very disdainful in his heart, such a small country, what kind of dream of a strong army. Isn't this a pipe dream?

A strong military is related to national strength. Only when the national strength is strong can we have the strength to select and train outstanding generals and soldiers. Instead of forcibly finding a group of people to train, it will not be possible to enhance military strength. The army also needs personnel replacement, and there is no break in the line.

Of course, these are not feasible for Lan Zhaoguo. Zhang Shan can't say it clearly.

He politely refused: "Our soldiers in the Central Plains are still different from your Lan Zhaoguo, I will give you a few treasured military books, you go back and have a look." The emperor has an order, I will return to the barracks later, and I may not have time to guide you. ”

Princess Yongjing also knew that Zhang Shan was a general and must be very busy, but she was also very happy to get the military book.

Then he asked: "General Zhang, may I ask if you can strengthen the army by arranging the troops according to the military book?" I'll train every day. ”

Zhang Shan: "......"

Yang Cheng could also see that Zhang Shan was not telling the truth, and he also knew that Princess Yongjing's dream of a strong army might be shattered.

Then he stepped forward and said: "Princess Yongjing, you are in a remote location, and the natural danger road is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you train some martial arts like the secret guard to guard the pass, it may be easier than the road to a strong army." ”

Zhang Shan also agreed: "Yes, Princess Yongjing. This strong army does not happen overnight, it requires long-term training, and the selection of personnel and generals are all very important. It takes a lot of financial, material and human resources. ”

Princess Yongjing asked: "Could it be that our Lan Zhao Kingdom, there is no way to strengthen the army?" ”

Zhang Shan replied: "It's not that there isn't, it's unnecessary." You can form an alliance with the Imperial Capital, and the Imperial Capital will protect you. If anyone attacked, the imperial capital sent troops to support. This one is more realizable. ”

Princess Yongjing understood this time, co-authored Zhang Shan just felt that Lan Zhaoguo could not be a strong army! To submit to the imperial capital and pay protection money, is that what it means?

Although he is very unwilling, if he wants to cultivate an army like Zhang Shan, it does cost a lot of financial and material resources, and he may not be able to train such an elite army. In addition, which of these fees or paying protection money is more cost-effective, it is better to go back to Lan Zhao and discuss it with the father and mother and the ministers before deciding.

When Pei Shengyuan and his party came down, they were surprised when they heard what happened to Yang Mubai in the past few months. Princess Yongjing was also shocked by Tai. I didn't expect that the talents of the imperial capital are better than a cow, and the emperor looks like a handsome young man, but he can strategize and easily guide the country, and he can do it without blood.

Even the queen mother, this seemingly soft and weak beauty, has such wisdom. has no martial arts, a lady who is beautiful, can hide in the killer's den for seven or eight months, and can also use the righteous principles of sages to influence so many killers who kill people without blinking. In the end, he tried his best to protect his children.

Zhang Shan, a young man, is a general. The martial arts platoon is so outstanding, and there are also generals Niu Shang and Xue Shang, who have never met each other, can quickly assemble an expeditionary force of 150,000, which frightened the Western Turk Kingdom to abandon the city and flee, which is simply terrifying. It seems that the song: The moon black goose flies high, and it escapes at night, which is a true description.

Princess Yongjing was deeply hit, it is not unreasonable for such an empire to dominate the Central Plains and make the surrounding countries submit. If a small country like theirs submits to the imperial capital and accepts their protection, what reason is there to refuse?

They really love the people like this, and for those who have no ability to live and no source of livelihood, they all set up a righteous workshop, so that no one will be displaced.

During the plague, the queen can go directly to the plague area for diagnosis and treatment. It is really an example of caring for the people.

There are countless literati and artists, and a hundred flowers are blooming.

Such an imperial capital that is leading in economy, military, people, and culture, there is no one that can be matched by the Lan Zhao Kingdom.

In the past, she was the tip of the drill, and instead of looking for a way to strengthen the army, if she formed an alliance with the imperial capital, surrendered to the imperial capital, and was protected by the imperial capital. There are also economic exchanges, then Lan Zhao will also be stronger. Thinking like this, she suddenly realized that there was nothing to worry about.

They met at the bottom of the mountain, because Yang Mubai had just given birth to a child and was cold, and his physical fitness was relatively poor. Pei Shengyuan didn't let her get out of the carriage, and kept lying on the carriage, like confinement in the palace. Drink tonic medicine every day.

Pei Shengyuan was afraid that it would be a long way back to Beijing, and Yang Mubai's body couldn't stand it, and it was difficult to get the side plug. There was no major event in the court, so he stayed in the city-state of Yiwu for a while, and when Yang Mubai was better, he returned to the capital.

After drinking tonic medicine for a few days and eating a lot of warm meals, Yang Mubai's complexion improved visibly. This made Pei Shengyuan very happy and fed her more diligently.

On this day, not long after Yang Mubai finished eating, Pei Shengyuan came over with medicinal food again.

Yang Mubai was already scared, and said, "I just ate enough, why do I want to eat again?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The husband said, you have to take more supplements, your body is too weak, it's really strange to these two boys, it's not the right time to come." ”

Yang Mubai also liked to joke like this before, but since he heard Peony say that he couldn't say these words, he was very taboo. Hurriedly stopped: "Bah, bah, bah, don't talk nonsense!" ”

Pei Shengyuan said with a smile: "Okay, good, good, don't say it, don't say it, you see." These two boys still have to drink milk, and you have to eat, or they won't have anything to eat. ”

Yang Mubai said: "Don't they have wet nurses? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The husband said, you have to take more supplements, and eat as much as you can, otherwise you will fall ill." ”

Yang Mubai begged for mercy and said: "But I can't eat it, I don't want to go to the capital and become a big fat man." ”

Pei Shengyuan said with a smile: "Becoming a big fat man is also a beautiful and cute big fat man." It's also my favorite big fat guy. ”

Yang Mubai said unpleasantly: "Do you like me or not, besides, it's too much, haven't you heard of it?" How can anyone who eats hard every day, take it away, I don't eat. ”

Seeing her like this, Pei Shengyuan couldn't say anything, put it aside, and said, "Then I'll eat it later." ”

Pei Shengyuan sat on the edge of the bed, took Yang Mubai's hand, and said, "Mumu, I have really wronged you these days. ”

Yang Mubai said: "It was a terrible time, but fortunately, it has passed. You don't have to mention it anymore, and it wasn't on your own purpose. There are still a long days to come! ”

Pei Shengyuan couldn't stop feeling pain every time he thought of Yang Mubai's terrifying days. He would rather suffer the sin himself. Why is Mu Mu suffering like this every time? I can't let her out of the palace anymore in the future, so he said: "Mu Mu, you can't leave the palace in the future." I put the token away, I can't let this happen again. ”

Yang Mubai said with a smile and a smile: "I have suffered so much in the Dark Sect, and you have to deprive me of the benefits of leaving the palace when I go back, how can you do this as if I made a mistake." ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "It's not Mumu's fault, it's my fault." It's ...... me."

Before he finished speaking, Yang Mubai said: "Since it's your fault, why do you want to take my exit from the palace." Isn't that punishing me for your mistakes? ”

Pei Shengyuan: "......" dug a pit for himself and jumped for himself, waiting for him here.

He thought for a while, and then said, "What is my punishment, this is to protect you, protection, you know?" I can't let you out of my protection again. ”

Yang Mubai said: "Then do you dare to guarantee that there will be no problems in the palace?" How can a well-designed conspiracy be stopped? Only a small precaution, I will pay attention to it in the future. As for leaving the palace! I still have to go, and it's really not for fun, I'll also be a secret guard for you, helping you check the people's situation. ”

Pei Shengyuan scratched her nose and said, "I have a lot of secret guards, I don't need you as a secret guard." You just have to be my queen. The most important thing is that you must be good, and you are happy every day, which is the best. ”

Yang Mubai said with a sly smile: "I can be happy and happy if I can go out of the palace freely, otherwise I will be depressed every day." Can't bear to see me unhappy? “

Pei Shengyuan: "......" Okay! and dug a pit for him to jump, and his army could be defeated by his love words.

Pei Shengyuan thought about it for a while, and then said: "It's not that you can't leave the palace, you have to accompany me!" It's so decided, it's up to me, I'm the Son of Heaven, and I'll have the final say. ”

Yang Mubai retorted: "That's not good, if there is a quarrel, I can't leave the palace yet?" ”

Pei Shengyuan hurriedly said, "I won't quarrel with you anymore." ”

"A month before I left the palace, you had a big fight with me!"

"I was wrong, and I won't quarrel with you again."

Yang Mubai: "......"

Yang Mubai didn't want to discuss this issue, so he said: "Let's not talk about this for now, let them bring the child over, I want to hug it." ”

Let the wet nurse come over with the baby and put it in the cradle, they are already asleep, sleeping soundly. Yang Mubai and Pei Shengyuan were rocking a cradle alone, looking at them with a smile. Looking at their pink and tender little faces, their hearts melted. There are no words to describe it.

Pei Shengyuan said: "Our Mu Mu is too powerful, we gave birth to two at one time, and they are still dragon and phoenix fetuses. This prince and princess have it. Of course, I'm pretty good too, aren't I? ”

Yang Mubai couldn't hit him well, so he had to echo: "Yes, yes, yes, our emperor is the most powerful." But now that he's still young, let's not make a prince first! It also depends on whether his qualifications are in line with the crown prince candidate in the future. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The children of me and Mu Mu must be the best, how can they not be qualified?" ”

Yang Mubai: "......"

Pei Shengyuan said excitedly: "Mu Mu has done so many great good deeds, and he is really blessed. The child must be the most perfect. "My own child is a child born on the tip of my heart, how to look at it, how to look at it, how to feel that love is not enough. He had envisioned that in the future, his children would be like him, and would be wise kings. No, he and Mu Mu's children will definitely be even better than him, and they will definitely be better than the blue.

Yang Mubai said: "Well, after so many things, I just hope that they can be safe and smooth." Whether or not to inherit the canon is not so important. As long as the emperor has a suitable successor, I have no opinion. ”

Pei Shengyuan said seriously: "Then how can it be the same? It must be inherited by our children......"

Yang Mubai didn't want to continue the topic, so he said: "Then let's talk about it later!" The one in your palace, what are you going to do? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "What else can I do, just let her out of the palace and let her not return to the capital in the future." ”

Yang Mubai asked: "For so long, you get along day and night, don't you have any feelings for her?" ”

Pei Shengyuan replied: "I'm going crazy looking for you during this time, where is there time to have feelings with her." The night you disappeared, I found out that she wasn't you. ”

Yang Mubai asked, "How did you find out that she wasn't mine?" ”

Pei Shengyuan replied frankly with a little embarrassment: "I hugged her, I felt different from you, I knew it." ”

Yang Mubai asked, "It's that simple?" ”

Pei Shengyuan replied: "I kissed her again, and I can be sure that you are unique from others, how can I not tell the difference." ”

Yang Mubai asked, "Is there any more in-depth communication?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said with a smile: "Is Mu Mu jealous?" ”

Yang Mubai said: "I'm not jealous, you answer honestly, is there a more intimate relationship?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said seriously: "Absolutely not, just hug her and kiss her, just like Mu Mu did to Oiran at the beginning." ”

Yang Mubai said angrily: "You are so, I still touched the Oiran, and you also touched her?" ”

Pei Shengyuan: "......" was speechless for a while, and then said: "Absolutely not, just hugged it and kissed it, I swear." Mu Mu, you must believe me, I am innocent. ”

Yang Mubai choked back: "Where did you get your innocence?" Then how was the child born in your palace? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Wasn't that born when Mu Mu was away? It's been a long time ago, it's been a long time ago, why is Mu Mu talking about it again? ”

Yang Mubai asked: "Your Majesty, you gave birth to several children when I was away, and this time I left for almost eight months, how many more did you give birth to?" ”

Pei Shengyuan replied: "Naturally, there is no one, I only care about looking for you, and I have forgotten what they look like." Is Mu Mu's vinegar too strong? ”

Yang Mubai said: "Who is jealous, I just like to listen to gossip." You're less poor. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Good, good, good, Mu Mu is not jealous." Don't just talk about me! That Mu Mu is not only moved by the waning moon, is there any heart at all? ”

The smile on Yang Mubai's face instantly cooled, she thought for a while, and said, "I don't want to talk about this." ”

Pei Shengyuan knew that he had asked the wrong question, and the more he wanted to know the answer, but the timing of the question was inappropriate, and he said to apologize: "Okay, it's my fault, I shouldn't have asked you this at this time." Let's not talk about that, let's look at the kids! ”

Watching Pei Shengyuan tease the child, the sense of loss in Yang Mubai's heart was slowly filled. That's how life is! There are unsatisfactory and regretful. But everyone is trying to live, where can everything be as good and perfect in life?

The waning moon is in her heart, and it can never be erased, and it is also the pain in her heart. She will do her best to forget this flaw and start a new life. Because in her life, there are people who are more important than herself, such as Pei Shengyuan, such as her children, such as her parents.

They watched the child for a while, and the nurse came to pick up the child and go to rest.

I haven't seen Yang Cheng for the past few days, so Yang Mubai asked, "Why didn't you see Zhang Shuo, how are he and Qiuyue?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Zhang Shuo has gone to Lan Zhaoguo, and he has been busy looking for your whereabouts recently, so how can I have time for the rest." ”

Yang Mubai said: "Then I'm going to ask Qiu Yue and see what she thinks." You can't delay someone else's marriage because you're looking for me. ”

Pei Shengyuan hurriedly stopped: "Let them go, we can't interfere." I haven't seen you for so long, why don't you miss me, you always think about others. ”

Yang Mubai kissed him fiercely, and then said: "I miss you, I miss you, I miss you the most." I look forward to you every day to save me out, how can I not want you. ”

Pei Shengyuan kissed her back, and then said: "It's about the same, I know that my Mu Mu is the most intimate." ”

After a while, Yang Mubai asked again, "What about Zhang Shuo?" Has his relationship with Akizuki eased recently? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Except for Mu Mu's affairs, I don't know anything about other people, can you concentrate on it, I still think about others in my arms, I want to punish you!" ”

Yang Mubai said: "Can't you care about the lifelong affairs of your subordinates? ”

Pei Shengyuan replied: "I can't care about my own affairs, why do I care about other people's lifelong affairs?" Zhang Shuo is such an excellent person, even if he loses Qiuyue, he will have other good matches. You have to believe that a happy marriage will always come in the dark, so Mu Mu don't worry about it, let God arrange it! ”

Yang Mubai said: "Haven't you heard that things are man-made? Could it be that every day at home, God still sends down a beautiful marriage to everyone, so why just wait at home for the sky to lose their husband and beloved wife, and go out? ”

Pei Shengyuan replied: "I still have to go out to work, I am at home every day, but I will starve to death." Yue Lao has drawn a red line for everyone, how can we mortals interfere? Mu Mu, we don't care about other people's emotional matters, okay? ”

Yang Mubai said: "You are the Son of Heaven, and you still believe in this kind of nonsense. Haven't you heard of it? It is better to demolish ten temples than to break a marriage. If you don't interfere, you will miss the person who should love each other, which is equivalent to ruining a marriage, do you think this is a big crime? ”

Pei Shengyuan said aggrievedly: "I didn't ruin their marriage, it's just a matter of feelings, and outsiders can't interfere." Even if I'm the Son of Heaven, I can't arbitrarily give someone someone to marry, right? It's still up to them to make their own choices. They're all adults, so they'll be able to handle it. Mumu, don't worry! ”

Yang Mubai said: "You men have big hearts. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "It's not! All matchmakers in the world are women, and men don't understand this. ”

Yang Mubai asked again: "Have all those women in the Dark Sect been arranged?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Zhang Shuo and Xu Lang are arranged. Some of those who were willing to return to their homes took them back. Some people who felt ashamed and didn't want to go back to their hometown were accepted for resettlement in other counties. Those who are sick are all treated by the husband, don't worry. ”

Yang Mubai said: "It's so pitiful to think about the life they lived. How can you say that there are such cruel people in the world who treat a helpless woman like this? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The world is full of wonders. There are more cruel things than that. ”

Yang Mubai asked, "What could be more cruel than this?" ”

Pei Shengyuan didn't want her to know some dirty things, so he said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, just talk about it." ”

Yang Mubai: "......"

After a while, Yang Mubai asked again: "Do you say that they can still find a good husband?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Fate is destined, no one can say for sure." ”

Yang Mubai sighed: "If they hadn't been caught in the Dark Sect, they would still be carefree children, and some of them would have married other women, plain and bland, and lived a life of harmony and beauty." It's so miserable to be caught here, tortured inhumanely, and have a bleak future. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Time is also, life is also." ”

Yang Mubai said: "It's all to blame for the prince who advocated the country and actually ran such an evil organization." ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Actually, I am also responsible, if I can govern here, this will not happen." ”

When they were talking intimately, Qiu Yue came to report that the prince seemed to be sick.

Yang Mubai was very worried, and hurriedly ran to the palace of the prince and princess. Pei Shengyuan hurriedly stopped: "Mu Mu, your body is still weak, wait here, I'll go and see first." I'll tell you what's going on. ”

Yang Mubai was very anxious, and hurriedly said, "Then you go and take a look." ”

It turned out that the child was frightened during pregnancy, and was born prematurely, and the child's appetite was not very good, so his body was weaker. Now there are signs of fever, the child is still too young, and the husband does not dare to use medicine. My body is getting hotter and hotter.

Pei Shengyuan said: "Yiwu city-state, are you just a husband?" ”

When the people heard this, they hurried to ask for a husband. This news was known to the city lord of Iou, and he hurriedly sent three doctors with the best medical skills to come over. One of the older husbands, who had treated many children, prescribed a few medicines.

After the prince took the medicine and stabilized a little, it took an hour before the heat of his body dropped

Pei Shengyuan said: "There is Mrs. Lao, dare to ask when this child will be well?" ”

The husband replied: "The child is weak, and the medicine prescribed by the old man is warm, and he needs to take the medicine for two or three days to get better." In the future, it is also necessary to pay more attention, children are prone to attract diseases and evil spirits, and more attention should be paid to diet, clothing. Do not let him wear too many clothes and get warm, nor let him wear too little to catch a cold. If there is a little bead of sweat on the child's head, change the underwear immediately......"

The husband also explained a lot, and Pei Shengyuan and the nurses listened patiently. In the past, the children in the palace were taken care of by their husbands and their mothers, and he just went to play with them for a while or supervise their schoolwork. I didn't expect it to be so difficult to raise a child.

After the child slept peacefully, Pei Shengyuan returned to Yang Mubai's tent.

When Yang Mubai saw him come back, he immediately asked, "How is the child?" ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "It's fine, it's a little hot." The husband prescribed medicine, and after taking it, he was stable. ”

Yang Mubai asked, "Does the husband have any other instructions?" ”

Pei Shengyuan knew that if he didn't tell the truth, Yang Mubai would not be at ease. So he told the husband what he had told him.

Yang Mubai blamed himself and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention to it in the future." Can you ask the husband to write it down on paper? After I return to the palace, I will follow my husband's instructions to take care of the children. ”

Seeing that she was too nervous, Pei Shengyuan comforted: "When I return to the palace, there are so many imperial doctors, Mu Mu doesn't have to worry." If Mu Mu needs it, I will ask him to write a copy. After a day or two, the child will be fine, and then hug it over for Mu Mu to see, okay? ”

Yang Mubai said: "Tomorrow I will take care of them, or carry them to my tent." ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The husband and the nurse will take care of them. You are still in weak health and cannot take care of them. ”

Yang Mubai said: "I am their mother, my body is not unwell now, it is my duty to take care of them, I must take care of them." ”

Seeing her like this, Pei Shengyuan said: "It's all up to you, and I'll take them to your tent tomorrow." ”

Yang Mubai was relieved.

On the second day, as soon as Yang Mubai woke up, he was clamoring to bring the child over.

Pei Shengyuan said: "The children are still sleeping, and we have to wait for them to wake up." Today's body is not so hot anymore, and it is estimated that the pill box will be fine after another day. Mumu, you don't have to worry too much. ”

Yang Mubai said: "How can I not be worried? They were a little uncomfortable, and I was so distressed. I'd rather all of these ailments be transferred to me than have them feel unwell. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The husband said that it is common for children to have a little illness and pain, and Mu Mu does not have to worry. ”

Yang Mubai said: "You don't have to worry, as a mother, I'm worried!" ”

This is all a rush of words, Pei Shengyuan listened to it, and felt very uncomfortable, what made her very worried as a mother. Isn't he worried as a father? He is also willing to bear the pain of the child, but this pain is not really shared. Listening to Mu Mu's words, it was as if he didn't care at all and stood by.

He said: "Mumu, I am also worried, and I am willing to share their pain. But this can't be, only if we relax and take care of ourselves, can we have the energy to take care of them, don't you say? ”

Thinking that he was rude, Yang Mubai said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it just now, I was too anxious to hear that they were sick, you don't take it to heart. ”

Pei Shengyuan also knew, took her hand and said, "I don't mind, and Mu Mu shouldn't worry too much." When they woke up, I asked the nurse to carry them over. ”

After the child was replaced, Yang Mubai did everything by himself and took care of the child very properly, and after two days, the child was finally fine, which made them all feel at ease.

Thinking of the husband when he left, he said that such a situation may happen from time to time in the future. Let their hearts be troubled again.
