Chapter 467: Long Line (2)
The Great Khan was angry, and he shouldn't have ventured here.
But there were some things he had to say. He followed the Great Khan all the way back to the steppe, and the tribal leaders learned that he had agreed to make peace, and that he had also married a princess of Northern Yan. Although she is already the eldest concubine, no one agrees with the sixteen Turkic tribes, none of them wants the two countries to reconcile, they all want to fight, and fight it thoroughly.
Wu Mingshi knew that the Great Khan's heart was full of anxiety and entanglement. He could see that the reason why the Great Khan was reluctant to go to war was that he did have scruples about Her Royal Highness the Princess.
The Great Khan has been alone for so many years, and he has never been so interested in a woman.
Although others did not see the benefits of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Great Khan could see it clearly. Therefore, as long as Her Royal Highness the princess can persevere, lay out slowly, and put a long line to catch big fish, the Great Khan will be soft-hearted sooner or later.
Seeing him mention the child in his womb, he couldn't help but subconsciously protect his lower abdomen.
"I will definitely give birth to this child safely. But the most important thing at the moment is to let the Great Khan leave with me, not to put me under house arrest in these six states...... I'm not a captive! ”
Wu Mingshi lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Your Highness, this is the most difficult level. You don't know the situation outside, things are not ordinary difficult, it is very difficult. In order to protect His Highness, the Great Khan has already prepared for the worst in his heart! His people are waiting, waiting to see if the child in His Highness's womb is male or female? If His Royal Highness can give birth to a prince, then the Great Khan will have a bargaining chip in his hands! ”
Chip?!
"My kids aren't a bargaining chip!"
Wu Mingshi saw that she was excited, his face was slightly pale, for fear that she would accidentally move the fetus, so he knelt on his knees, kowtowed and confessed his mistake: "In the next moment, I am anxious, I don't choose my words, and I hope that His Highness will atone for his sins!" However, if His Royal Highness can really give birth to a prince this time, then he is the eldest son of the Great Khan and the rightful heir to the throne. ”
Once the Great Khan has a son on his knees, the stalemate between the monarch and the ministers will be eased somewhat.
The prince is the prince and the future of the tribe.
When the ministers wavered, as long as the Great Khan persevered to the end, then he could at least win a truce of three or five years.
With these three or five years, it is enough to make a difference.
Carefree was silent for a moment, and suddenly sneered.
"If it's a prince, then everything will be fine? What if it's a girl? ”
Wu Mingshi still knelt on the ground and said: "Your Highness, it's useless to think too much at the moment, you can only take one step at a time." The Great Khan's intentions for His Highness can be seen clearly below, as long as His Highness can firmly grasp the heart of the Great Khan, there is still room for things to turn around. ”
Today, everyone sees her as an outcast, but there is still hope in her belly.
Carefree was silent and turned his back.
Wu Mingshi sighed lightly and said: "Your Highness, now is the most difficult time, as long as you can get through it, you will definitely be able to come in the days to come." ”
She should know how serious the situation is here, and she should have been prepared.
Carefree closed his eyes and his shoulders drooped slightly. Yes, she had long anticipated the difficulties and difficulties of this trip. Now, she is standing on the cusp of this storm, there is no way to hide, there is no way to avoid it.
"Your Highness, please protect yourself, I am afraid that the dangers in the next ten months will be countless!"
Just beyond this wall, I don't know how many people are coveting her place, hating the child in her womb.
Wu Mingshi didn't dare to stay longer, only finished what he had to say, and hurriedly retreated.
Mingzhu stood outside the tent, taking care of the wind for him.
Seeing him come out, he couldn't help but look nervous and said, "Lord Wu, have you persuaded your master?" ”
Wu Mingshi muttered: "I have said everything that should be said, whether I can figure it out or not depends on the master himself." ”
Mingzhu sighed softly when she heard this.
Although His Royal Highness is gentle, he is a very stubborn person in his bones.
After Wu Mingshi left, Wu Wu's heart was full of thoughts.
She was deeply aware that the child in her womb had come at an inopportune time. However, she no longer had a chance to choose.
Suddenly, Mingzhu pushed the door in, holding a tray in his hand, and the medicine bowl on it was steaming white.
This is a tocolytic pill that has just been boiled.
Wu Wu looked at the medicine bowl, and his heart sank again.
She suddenly remembered that she had pain in her lower abdomen, so she hurriedly said, "You go and invite Master Huo." ”
Huo Jia came to His Royal Highness with the rumor, and when he saw that her face was not good, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
After he checked her pulse, his face changed even more.
"Your Highness, do you feel any discomfort today?"
Tell the truth without worry, and tell yourself what you are uncomfortable with.
Huo Jia said in a heavy tone: "Your Highness, you must control your emotions well, and you must not be impulsive. ”
Carefree nodded, she knew she had to control, but she couldn't control it.
"This first trimester is the most dangerous. After three months, when the tire gas is stable, His Highness can walk around a little. For now, you still have to focus on recuperation......"
Huo Jia didn't want to deliberately play official, but she could only do this in order to protect the child.
Her pulse is unstable, her pulse is unstable, that is, the fetal gas is unstable, which is a very dangerous thing.
In the middle of the night, Tu Du still returned to the mansion uneasily.
She's here, how can he just say go.
Carefree had already fallen asleep, and through the thin gauze tent, he couldn't see her face clearly.
Tu Du slowed his steps and stood beside the bed, quietly looking at her face.
He missed her so much that he wanted to see her almost every day.
Tu Du sat down on the bed with his back to her.
He had a lot to say to her, but she didn't want to hear it.
He sat quietly for a while, not wanting to wake her.
In fact, Carefree hadn't fallen asleep at all, she had been looking at Tu Du's back, and the corners of her eyes were slightly moist.
With a great deal of determination, she reached out from behind him and hugged him gently.
Her movements were very light, but she still made Tu Du slightly stunned.
His back stiffened a little, but quickly relaxed again.
"You haven't slept yet?"
Worry-free said quietly: "The concubine has been waiting for the Great Khan. ”
It's rare for them to see each other, and they can't just be separated.
Carefree tightened his arms slightly, and a sharp slight glint burst out in his eyes.
She wants to seize the opportunity, one step to heaven, one step to hell...... She can't afford to lose...... Can't afford to lose to yourself.
……
The prince's birthday is celebrated by the whole world.
However, just when everyone was rejoicing, Changsheng was surprisingly cold and calm.
In the womb, up and down, inside and outside, there are all festive appearances, but there is no smile on his face.
His depressed appearance made Meng Xilan feel very distressed.
"Mother, let's keep everything simple this year. When the imperial court needs silver, it can save a little. ”
When he saw his mother looking at him, he lowered his head again: "And, as you know, Erchen has always disliked being lively. ”
Meng Xilan pondered for a moment when she heard this, and then said: "The prince will be fifteen years old after this birthday, and he is an adult, so he should have his own opinions." You can do whatever you want. ”
Changsheng stood up and saluted: "Thank you for your understanding!" ”
Every year on his birthday, he has his sister with him, but this year, he ...... Obviously, there was only one person missing from the palace, but for him, sometimes he felt that the entire palace was empty......
People come and go, and it's still lively. It's just that his heart is empty.
Meng Xilan looked at her son's changing emotions, and she really couldn't think of words that could comfort him.
"Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been like this, and it's not a solution."
Gao Fu returned to his master's side, changed his previous high profile, and his words became less and less, unless it was time to say it, otherwise, he would not say a word more.
Recently, the state of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really worrying.
Meng Xilan was asking Zhulu to grate her hair, closed her eyes and said, "Fifteen years of companionship, when Changsheng was still in the belly of the palace, he came with the palace to guard him. ”
How important it is to him is that ordinary people can understand.
Zhu Lu sighed secretly when she heard this, but she was afraid that her master's newly grown white hair would be secretly hidden.
"What's the use of worrying? Bengu wants to compensate him, but there must be a way. ”
As a mother, Meng Xilan felt for the first time that she was such a failure.
She didn't protect her, she didn't make Changsheng happy.
Gao Fuli and Zhu Lu glanced at each other, and then said: "The slave heard that there is a girl over there in Gong Le Fang, and it seems that all her thoughts are on His Royal Highness the Prince. ”
Meng Xilan smiled when she heard this, waved her hand and said, "She is not for the prince, but for the palace." ”
"That...... That girl is a trainer? ”
If he is obedient, with a little training, it is not impossible to stay by the prince's side.
The crown prince is now fifteen years old, and at the latest he will be seventeen years old, and it is time to prepare for the wedding.
Niangniang has protected him for many years and never let him get close to women. Thinking about it carefully, His Royal Highness the Prince's affection for Her Royal Highness the Princess is probably because of this.
A man is a man, unlike a woman.
Meng Xilan glanced at Xiao Lizi when she heard this: "Do you think that with other women by Changsheng's side, he will be able to forget about worry-free?" ”
Gao Fuli hurriedly lowered his head: "The slave doesn't dare to think so." ”
Meng Xilan closed her eyes again and muttered: "This palace has this plan to add someone to his side, but this person must be more loyal than you and Zhulu, and the foundation must be clean." She can be greedy for money, but she can't love power! She can be smart, but she can't be scheming! You say, "Where do you have to go to this palace to find such a person?" ”
Look and see, maybe you won't find it at all!
The servants in the palace are as many as they want, but if they are loyal and can swear allegiance to themselves, they can be counted on ten fingers.
Sooner or later, Changsheng will marry a wife, but a political marriage is just to join forces, how many feelings can there be?
She doesn't want her son to be lonely all her life, guarding this prosperous palace, but there is no one around her who can talk to her heart.
