Chapter 560: Cangli Country
That night, Ji Shulan experienced the most painful night of her life.
The qi in her stomach was running back and forth, not controlled at all, and it was accompanied by abdominal pain and the desire to be respectful, but today's emperor not only took the wrong medicine, but he had to pull her to read and play chess together, and he didn't let her leave the house.
It wasn't until the end, when there was a trace of foul smell in the air, that Shen Mi frowned, said a few perfunctory words casually, and hurriedly left the Sanssouci Palace as if avoiding the plague.
Ji Shulan sat on the gong bucket, her face turned red because of shame, the emperor finally came to her once, but because her stomach was not angry, she had diarrhea. , completely messed up this time, she was angry and annoyed, but she didn't know who to vent to, so she could only sulk alone.
This matter is over.
Shen Mi sent the lackeys of Xi Shulan in the imperial dining room to the Xin Zheku, and renovated the imperial dining room from top to bottom, and the manager repeatedly promised that he would pay close attention to everyone and never let this happen again.
And Shi Yueran's side, she can naturally start to enjoy the 'pregnant woman meal' tailored for her by Shi Qingqian, three meals a day, no duplicate every day, this is not the key, the key is the combination of meat and vegetables, balanced nutrition, and the taste is even more beautiful. This food kept up, and most of the worries were avoided, and Shi Yueran was in a good mood, and she started to be her carefree and happy little pregnant woman.
As the days passed, Shi Yueran's stomach finally had a bit of a bulge. Everyone's lives are back on track, but Shen Mi hasn't been in the harem for a long time, go, that is, go to the Laurel Palace to see Shi Yueran, and other women don't even want to touch it.
Shi Qingqian has been calculating day by day, occasionally going to the market with Zuo Shinian, who has already married, going to the market to go shopping hand in arm, or to follow her to mix in the circle of married wives, and the days are not particularly boring. After all, the ladies are more mature, and they are also very polite to Shi Qingqi, compared to those little girls who are rampant and ignorant, it is not too easy.
She also thought that her future days would be as simple as waiting for the fifth princess Shen Wan to come back, but she didn't want to be unhappy - there was another big incident in the court.
Shen Mi finished reading the folds handed over by the officials, swept over the people standing below with a solemn face, and said solemnly: "Which tendon is wrong in this Cangli country!?" even began to take the initiative to provoke trouble! I, Yuguo, had given him so many benefits before, but now I suddenly feel that it is not enough! ”
"Your Majesty, people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants. Cangli was defeated by Yu 20 years ago, and since then, he has bowed down to his ministers and paid tribute every year, and it is understandable that such a depressed situation will secretly breed some careful thoughts," Shen Shu said, "I heard that the new monarch of Cangli has always been an ambitious person, and he has been immersed in martial arts since he was a child. ”
Cangli is a small country on the west side of Yu Kingdom, similar to Dongwu Kingdom, both are countries bordering Yu Kingdom, but Cangli Country is small in area, and was defeated by the important ministers of the first emperor twenty years ago, but it is a pity that the general who once went to heaven and earth and was omnipotent also died on that territory due to serious illness.
Fortunately, he exchanged his life for peace between the two countries, so long has passed, and Yu is about to forget the existence of Cangli, but suddenly there is an urgent report from the frontier - saying that the Cangli people began to invade the border of Yu, although the number is not large, the border soldiers can still resist, but they can see the wolf ambition of Cangli country, so it is only 100,000 miles to urgently send a message back to Beijing to ask for reinforcements to help.
"Hmph, after enduring so many years, in the end, I still haven't forgotten the defeat of the year," Shen Mi snorted coldly, "It seems that this Cangli Xinjun is determined to fight back against my Yu Kingdom, and this matter must not be tolerated!" ”
The world is impermanent, that's how it is. For example, what they thought was a long-term and stable peaceful and prosperous era is actually fragile and vulnerable, and the slightest change in the border means that a big war is likely to be ushered in.
"Your Majesty! The minister asked himself to lead his troops to the northwest and annihilate the enemy army! ”
Shen Mi's words meant that he needed to choose a general to go to the remote northwest to start a fierce war with the Cangli Kingdom that had been secretly brewing for twenty years.
Almost all the generals hung their heads slightly, silent, only one person-
Feiyun.
He stepped forward, knelt directly on one knee in the hall, and shouted loudly.
Shen Mi gave Feiyun an approving look, but he didn't immediately decide to send him, but continued to look at the place where the military attaches were.
"Feiyun, it's not that I think you're incompetent," Shen Mi explained, "It's just that you're too young, and the most recent battle of Cangli was twenty years ago, so you haven't experienced it at all, and you haven't mastered Cangli's usual methods and army characteristics, so you were sent to ...... It's really easy to lose. What about the veterans of my Yu country? Why are they silent? ”
Now there are not many veterans with great achievements in the court. It was all because of Mo Ruan's usurpation of the throne, which brought many people into his camp, and was finally killed by Shen Mi's order.
In fact, his attitude towards the old ministers with military merits has indeed aroused the dissatisfaction of many people in the army - they think that the people in the army are different from ordinary officials, and there are not many people who can take on the duties of generals, and he should coax them, rather than kill them indifferently.
But Shen Mi still insisted on his choice without the slightest compromise.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that those old ministers have some problems with him, and they should have been scrambling to win glory for the country and make meritorious contributions, but they were silent one by one.
Especially the hussar general Ji Yan, who had the intention of supporting Mo Ruan at the beginning, because the advent of the posthumous photo turned against him instantly.
Seeing this, Ji Wenyu only felt full of disappointment, and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the old ministers of my court are a little lazy, perhaps because of old age...... I don't want to fight hard for the country anymore! I just didn't expect it...... My country is also a great power in the world, and the previous generals all threw their heads and spilled blood for the country. ”
"Whew! You are a scholar, how can you say cool things at this time! Ji Yan scolded, "You have the ability, you lead the troops to the battlefield!" ”
"General Hi is so ridiculous to speak, is there no general in my Dayu Kingdom!? To send a civil servant? Shen Mi's eyes were cold, and he saw that Yan Yan's heart trembled inexplicably.
