Since this battle, Qu Mingli's prestige in the army has been even greater than before, although Ning Zeqing promoted him as the general of the Hundred Clans Army, but this matter is not known, and now, he has the same prestige as the general, which makes Ning Zeqing feel a lot more at ease. It's just that it's still a bit aggressive, and it needs to be more calm.

This battle was immediately transmitted to Xingdu through letters, and it was thought that the Ming King would reply to praise it, but he did not receive a word. It's just that the message was not sent for reward, and there was no reply, and it was only a little suspicious, and it was not taken to heart.

But Qu Mingli sensed that something was wrong from Lu Ying's letters.

Lu Ying said that he entered the palace to meet King Ming as usual, but was stopped, saying that the king was not in good health and would not meet with him. I also heard that King Ming did not go to court for several days, but only closed in the palace, and no one was seen except his uncle.

That's weird.

Even if the king of Ming is sometimes in poor health, he will not go to the morning court for days, not to mention, a few days ago, I heard that the king of Ming and the uncle had a quarrel, why is he sick now, but he is alone.

Qu Mingli was very strange, so he informed Ning Zeqing and Shi Shu of this matter.

Shi Shu was puzzled: "In the previous letter from my father, I did mention that I was slightly unwell, but it was not so serious. If there is anything wrong with the uncle, it is even less so. He has always been indifferent to everything, and occasionally quarrels with his father, if there is a conspiracy in the process, I don't believe it. ”

Just in case, Shi Shu still wrote a letter to the palace by hand, asking his father to reply.

It was also during this time that Wei Qin helped Grandpa Pavilion return to the territory, and after guarding it for seven days, he returned to the front.

Qu Mingli saw that she was dressed in black, her face was expressionless, and he only felt that her eyes showed murderous intent all the time, and it was difficult to get close. From a distance, it was solemn and abnormal.

Wei Qin asked for orders to lead the remnants of the Wei family to fight against the former Wanli, never to the death, and asked Ning Zeqing to arrange the war to be placed on the front line, bluntly saying that she was not afraid of war.

So, although Wei Qin had no generals, he led the generals to fight on the front line of the battle with the former Wanli.

On the other side, the former Wanli army was attacked by surprise and scattered in all directions, and the upper echelons could only run for their lives.

Retreat to a place, called the north of the candle, and rest and rectify.

Outside the house were all soldiers who had been affected by the defeat, all lifeless, just depressed and hanging their heads, still working on instinct.

Yu Zhanpu looked confused, full of insecurity, and kept asking General Qin: "At this point, what should I do?" ”

General Qin was very dissatisfied with his questioning tone: "It's just a little accident, why be so panicked!" What is lost now, I will let them return it sooner or later, and return it! ”

His face was hideous, grinning wildly, like a hellish Shura, full of bright red desire and black death breath, full of the aura of an unknown person, as if he was seduced by a piece of carrion and a wild dog that was about to go berserk, and no one dared to approach.

Qi Si hung his head from the side, as if none of this had anything to do with him.

"Qi Shang, no, the princess is suddenly going to give birth!" The next man stumbled in to report.

Qi Siden stood up and ran to the room where Yan Caimiao was staying.

The retreat was too sudden, Yan Caimiao was eight months pregnant, and she couldn't stand the bumps, after settling down, Qi Si anxiously asked her about the situation, Cai Miao endured the discomfort and persuaded him to rest assured, Qi Si left.

But how can I hide such discomfort, from time to time I feel abdominal pain, and I fall red again, and then I am about to give birth.

The subordinate hastily set up a delivery room, and called the accompanying doctor, and began to deliver Yan Caimiao.

Qi Si stood outside the door, listening to the screams in the room, and felt distressed.

Yu Zhanpu looked excited: "If you can give birth to an heir in one fell swoop, God will bless me Wanli!" ”

Qi Si only glanced at him, unwilling to argue with him.

Yan Caimiao shouted from night to early morning, and her voice gradually became hoarse.

The healer came out of the house and asked cautiously, "The princess is very angry, her body is weak, she can't bear the pain of childbirth, and she has gradually lost her strength. At present, only one person can be selected from the adults and children. ”

The more the doctor spoke, the more he lost his confidence, and he only dared to glance up.

Qi Si was already stunned in place, like a lightning strike.

"Keep it small!" Yu Zhanpu shouted, "This is the bloodline of my Wanli that has continued for thousands of generations, there must be no mistake!" Go and deliver the prince of our country, if there is any mistake, I will not spare you! ”

The doctor panicked, and seeing that Qi Si had not yet responded, he hurriedly turned over into the house and continued to deliver the baby.

Qi Si's whole body seemed to be filled with molten iron, and he was overwhelmed, and he closed his eyes and let fate arrange it.

"Ahh A scream in the room woke Qi Si up, and he pushed the maid outside the door and ran straight into the house.

The delivery room was very hot, filled with the smell of blood, and the faint gasping sound of the collapsed person was the source of all pain.

"Brother Si, yes...... Is that you? Yan Caimiao's breath was weak, and she couldn't even finish a complete sentence.

Qi Si knelt down to her collapse and took her dead hand, trying to give her strength.

"Picking seedlings, you'll be fine, you'll be fine."

Yan Caimiao smiled slightly, as if accepting his comforting words: "Our child will be the king after Wanli, he ...... He will return to Hindu and stand where his grandfather once lived. Brother Si, are you right? ”

Qi Si nodded with tears in her eyes, and she would agree to whatever she said.

"He will lead Wan Li back to the top of the hundred countries......"

Yan Caimiao suddenly felt a tearing pain in her lower abdomen, and screamed again.

At sunrise in the east, a baby's cry finally came from the house, resounding in the sky.

"It's a boy, a boy!" The people in the room laughed.

Yu Zhanpu was finally pleased: "I, Prince Wanli, was finally born." Thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, there are successors, successors! ”

Yu Zhanpu couldn't stop laughing, but after a while, the crying of the baby in the house stopped abruptly.

"What's going on?"

Yu Zhanpu rushed to the house, and bumped into Qi Si who came out of it head-on.

"It's gone, it's gone."

Yu Zhanpu felt bad in his heart, and when he walked into the house, there was a dead silence, the doctor knelt on the edge of the collapse, bowed his head and said nothing, the face of the person on the collapse was pale, there was no breathing fluctuation, and there was a trace of blood under his body.

Yu Zhanpu looked around, and finally saw a small quilt wrapped in a wooden basket, baby-shaped, covered with a white cloth, and there was not a single thing.

Yu Zhanpu stretched out his hand to take a look, but he stopped his hand, returned to Qi Si, and knelt down to plead.

"Qi Shang, for the sake of the country, please mourn as soon as possible, accept the princess as soon as possible, and give birth to a prince to comfort the souls of the ancestors in the sky!"

Qi Si felt dark for a while, barely stood firm, and used all his strength to suppress and squeeze out a sentence: "Teacher, can't you be a person with feelings once?" ”

Yu Zhanpu didn't feel that he was wrong at all: "In front of the national fortune, I am just a courtier, and you are just a king." ”

Qi Si laughed miserably, waved his sleeves and left.

He is just the king that Wan Li needs.
