Chapter 156: Chess is like chess
After Haitang heard about the backyard fighting between Concubine Ji and Concubine Su, she was speechless and shuddered. If it weren't for the madness of the Duanwang on the day and the one who was in the Shura field, I'm afraid there would be another ...... Thinking of this, Haitang felt that Xie Ruijiao's sincerity to herself was so precious.
This time, I didn't participate in the dedication of the women, but suddenly everything became smooth.
Xianwang made a stumbling block, demoted Zuo Zhangquan, the chief general of the Chinese army, and punished him to be a thousand households guarding the city gate, and let Du Yun, the elder brother of Concubine Du, take his position. Du Yun was so surprised and delighted that he forgot how many catties and taels he had, bought a new mansion, and set up a flowing water banquet for three days.
Mrs. Qin's father, who was originally an idle position in the Ministry of Rites, was also operated by the king for a while, and was transferred to the Ministry of Officials as a left waiter.
Lin Yueru's brother participated in the Spring Festival this year, and later the palace examination also ended, although he only got a top three knowledge, but he also had the qualifications to enter the office, Xian Wang is thinking about it, and recommended him to the position he can use.
In addition, Zhang Zhi's filial piety of 200,000 taels of silver went into the warehouse, and the waist pole of the king was straightened.
What made him happiest was that Lin Yueru was already two months pregnant after the sudden roundhouse! Now, there are two pregnant women in the palace at the same time, how can he not be overjoyed? In terms of heirs, he is stronger than all princes.
Cheng Xiangjin is about to give birth in a month. She was pregnant at a young age, and the risk was extremely great, and Xu Guanping deliberately sent people to send various nutritious food every day to force her to eat, saying that it was to ensure the health of the child. came and went, and her baby was raised extraordinarily large. But she herself did not know that danger was coming, and boasted about it all day long.
Wen Po looked at it and whispered to Princess Xu: "Princess, Miss Cheng is small, I am afraid that this fetus will be difficult to give birth." She is young, her pelvis has not yet grown, but the fetus is so big, depending on this situation, it may be started in advance at any time, this fetus, I'm afraid I won't be able to take it. ”
The princess smiled and said, "This princess came to you because I heard that you once cut open the mother's body and took the child out, so you should be ready and do it." ”
Wen Po's face changed greatly, and she called in a low voice: "Oh, princess Niangniang, you let go of the old body, that method can not be easily used!" The dissection of people's bodies is to be beheaded, and the last time in your mother's house, it was done at the expense of your life, and you must not let anyone know. ”
"But if you don't do it this time, I can't guarantee that the yamen will know about it." Princess Xu sneered.
Wen Po said tentatively, "You must know that after taking the child, the woman will not survive, and this can be regarded as murder!" The nobles in the palace, the old body doesn't dare to ......"
"A concubine, who has not even entered the palace register, dies and dies, what is it? The prince's children are the biggest. At that time, you just have to use your own methods to ensure that the child can come out safely, and the rest, there is this princess. Rest assured, the silver will be doubled for you. The princess smiled softly, as if she was not talking about human life, but about spring flowers and autumn moons.
Since Xianyun discovered the ingredients of the child-avoiding medicine in Ji Qinglan's fetal pills, Princess Xu's mood has improved a lot, and even Mrs. Lin's pregnancy is not so repulsive. You will soon have a child, and if you want, you can of course do the same and get another.
Xianwang is not a fool, he himself has not become an emperor, but he doesn't want Ji Qinglan to conceive a child with Ji's bloodline, if he lets the child become a puppet of the Ji Party, then he will not even have the opportunity to be a puppet.
Princess Xu called someone outside again, picked two beautiful and charming singers, and put them in Changfeng Building to make tea girls. As for whether to accept the house or not, it doesn't matter, as long as it can block Ji Qinglan, the princess's mood will be much better.
Princess Xian is playing chess, why can't Duanwang's uncle play chess?
On this day, Cheng Hanbai took precautions and did not go back to Chengfu directly, but rode a horse to the gate of Dongcheng City to buy tofu flowers. The guard of the gate of Dongcheng is Zuo Zhangquan, the main general of the Chinese army who was squeezed down by King Xian.
"Brother Cheng!" Zuo Qianhu saw Cheng Hanbai greeted warmly: "You also like to eat Lao Luotou's tofu flowers?" ”
"How can I be so greedy? Running half a city for a bowl of tofu flowers? Not my picky sister yet! Cheng Hanbai hurriedly explained.
Zuo Zhangquan hurriedly greeted Lao Luotou: "Lao Luotou, pack two more bowls, they are all mine!" ”
"I'm sorry about that...... Brother Zuo, it's better to meet by chance, let's find a quiet place to have two drinks? Cheng Hanbai patted Zuo Zhangquan on the shoulder: "I please!" So the two quickly sat down in the private room of the restaurant.
"Brother Cheng, you said that I was wronged, but I capsized in the gutter!" Zuo Zhangquan sighed: "No matter how high the Tao is, it can't withstand a mutinous person around you!" ”
Cheng Hanbai poured him another full cup: "The gods fight, our five military camps are their battleground, although Feng Dudu is with the emperor, but the five armies have their own independent military power, if you don't stand in line, you will naturally be squeezed out." ”
Zuo Zhangquan nodded, picked up the wine glass and asked, "Brother Cheng, which team are you standing on?" ”
Cheng Hanbai patted his thigh and said, "Hi! Do you need to ask? I'm sure I'm going to stand as my sister-in-law! King Duan himself led his troops to fight. You and I, the generals who have been on the battlefield, know that character is the easiest to see on the battlefield. I think King Duan is strong with foreign races, but he is very friendly to his own people, among the princes, can you find a second one? ”
"That's right, King Duan has a lot of military exploits, and he is indeed his own person! Brother Cheng, you will be useful to your brother in the future, just speak! "Zuo Zhangquan is a typical soldier, and his words are full of pride.
Cheng Hanbai laughed and said: "Brother, just watch it carefully at the city gate, how can the pearl be dusted for a long time?" There will be a day when you will be back in power! Zuo Zhangquan was overjoyed and saluted Cheng Hanbai three times.
Full of wine and food, Cheng Hanbai got up to say goodbye, and just took two steps, Zuo Zhangquan shouted behind him: "Hey! General Cheng, wait! Your sister's tofu flower didn't take ......"
On the day of rest, Zuo Zhangquan took the initiative to invite Cheng Hanbai to drink, and as expected, he also brought the former army commander Xu Yi and the left army commander Jiang Haitao. These two have been friends of Zuo Zhangquan for many years, and Cheng Hanbai has been to their army to teach formation, and they can be regarded as acquaintances.
Several generals quietly analyzed the situation between the DPRK and the army, and Cheng Hanbai also told them about the situation in Jiuzhen, and the three of them made a decision in their hearts.
In the past, they also had the heart to take refuge in Duanwang, but they were not recommended by anyone. Now with the sponsorship of Duanwang's future uncle, the future is suddenly bright. In the past few days, because Zuo Zhangquan was suddenly degraded by a mistake, the panic brought to them was swept away, and several people couldn't help but drink happily, and they drank a familiar wine.
Among the five armies, the commander of the Chinese army is Du Yunze, the uncle of King Xian, who has just been promoted, and Ji Tai, the commander of the rear army, is the eldest son of Ji Feng. Kong Yi, the commander of the Right Army, loyally followed Feng Guangcai. King Duan unknowingly accepted the front army and the left army, and there were also his own people in the nine gates.
King Xian and King Kang don't know, and things are like chess, and unconsciously, the mother family is not rich and the heartless Duan Wang is also full of his own chess pieces on the chessboard.
