Mingzhu looked at the stomach of the Wusun County Lord quietly, and said with a smile: "Ninth brother and sister, please speak." ”

The county lord of Wusun sat down with his stomach in his hand, and talked for a long time, waiting for Mingzhu to take the initiative to pull the topic to her stomach, and he was impatient, and said straight to the ground: "Sixth sister-in-law has seen my belly." ”

"See." Mingzhu picked up the tea and smiled at her: "It's hot, drink some water." ”

The county lord of Wusun was helpless, so he had to say: "The sixth sister-in-law and aunt went to my house to see me before, but I didn't know what to do and didn't tell the truth. In fact, this child was only discovered after our Royal Highness left, because of the previous matter of the yew cup, the fetal phase was a little unstable, and the old lady in the palace went to ask the master to see it, saying that if you want everything to go well, then you have to hide it and say it until it is about to give birth. ”

Mingzhu saw that her face was flushed, so she took her words: "So it's almost now?" Does the ninth brother know? ”

At the mention of Yu Wenyou, the embarrassment on the face of the Wusun County Lord immediately turned into shyness: "Of course he knows." It's just that he asked her to ask Mingzhu for help, and she didn't listen to him.

"That's fine. Let people go to Zongzheng Temple to say, find the nurse and the midwife, and make someone come over to say that they are going to give birth, and I will invite a few concubines and Princess Qi to help you watch. Mingzhu ended the conversation neatly.

The county lord of Wusun thought that she would be embarrassed fiercely, but he didn't expect her to be so easy to speak, and he was a little confused for a while: "Is that it?" ”

Mingzhu smiled: "Ninth brother and sister have other things? ”

The county lord of Wusun shook his head slightly: "No." ”

"It's getting late, and you can't travel with a big belly, so I won't leave you to eat. The two kids hadn't seen me for a day, and I had to go see them. Mingzhu got up and prepared to see off the guests.

"Sixth sister-in-law, you are busy, you broke into the door without saying hello in advance, I was too abrupt." The lord of Wusun County became polite and left very interestingly. When he went out, he was still stunned, and Liuli whispered: "I thought I would be troubled no matter what, but I didn't expect to be so easy to speak." Are we still going to the Qi Palace? ”

"No, so be it, Your Highness said that although her character is not very good, she still counts when she speaks. I think she will not hack me again for the sake of His Highness's fighting on the front line. "The lord of Wusun was prepared before he came, if Mingzhu made things difficult for her or ignored her, then she took Yu Wenyou's handwritten letter to ask Princess Qi. It is impossible for Princess Qi to ignore it, and in the end, the person who loses her notoriety is still Mingzhu, so she is not afraid at all. But now Mingzhu has easily handled things for her, which makes her a little uncomfortable.

Liuli held back for a long time, and finally didn't hold back: "Why did the princess think she would harm you before?" ”

The county lord of Wusun refused to answer.

"The slave is the closest person to the princess, and there are some things that have to be said to you, even if you want to be angry, you can't take care of it." Liuli said boldly: "The princess still remembers the instigation of Jiang Shanshan and Concubine Jin earlier, right?" According to the slave's thoughts, His Royal Highness seems to have died of heart, and the princess regent has no thoughts in this regard. All these years of competition, you have been competing with yourself. ”

The county lord of Wusun sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "Maybe yes, I have worked in vain all these years. With this effort, all the effort will be spent on His Highness, and he and I will not be as angry as we are now. The fetus in her womb kicked her, making her hurt and happy, she held her belly and gently stroked the fetus, humming the nursery rhyme when her mother put her to sleep when she was a child, and the fetus quieted down, as if listening to her song.

Liuli smiled: "Don't think too much about it, princess, it's actually quite good now." His Highness is disgusting and soft, although he has a quarrel with you, he has not spoiled other women. Now that you and he have a son, he will come back with a big victory, and the family of three will be reunited, and the days will be sweeter and sweeter. ”

Lord Wusun's eyes moistened: "I must live a good life." ”

Mingzhu didn't know these things, she had heard Fu Cong and Fu Mingzheng mention when she was at her mother's house just now, Yuwenchu and King Zhongshan would have a fierce battle next, and both sides would lay out the main forces, and whether the whole battle situation could be reversed depended on this battle.

The money and food in front of it are consumed quickly, and they have to be transported over on time and in full, and the weapons field of Half Shear and Caiyun is a place to burn money, and it is a place to burn money, and it is necessary to ask for people for a while, for money, for a while, for iron, for mines, for a person to be smart, strong, and well-read, and all kinds of strange requirements are available, and she racks her brains for this, and she has to take care of and raise two children, which is really busy.

It would be best if the county lord of Wusun could not argue with her, she really didn't have the heart to deal with these trivial things.

No one expected that this vicious battle would come so slowly, and when everyone was waiting impatiently, it finally came quietly. At the end of April, Jiang Houxiu, the hussar general who succeeded Shen Ruilin to defend Yicheng, defeated King Qiu Li in the west, burned Qiu Liwang's mansion, and captured the children of King Qiu Li.

On the sixth night of the first month of June, it rained heavily, and the long-dormant King of Zhongshan united with the Xiongnu Iron Cavalry, the other two vassal kings of the Northland, and the remnants of King Qiu Li, who had defected to him, Yu Minchuan, to attack the main army of the imperial court.

It was night, the torrential rain was like a note, the wind was strong, the firearms could not be used, and the crossbow arrows were missing, which had a great impact on the army on the imperial side. Although prepared, the battle was destined to be a tragic hand-to-hand battle, which lasted from late night until the evening of the next day, with rivers of blood flowing and heavy casualties on both sides.

The imperial army won a crushing victory and held Minchuan, and the rebels retreated. Just when the king of Zhongshan was about to repeat his old trick and retreat back into the city to hold on, a light cavalry outflanked him from the rear, and met the retreating rebels with a series of crossbow shots, and then rushed up to chop melons and vegetables.

The nightmare was still behind, and another heavily armored cavalry with bright armor chased after him, cooperating on both sides, flanking back and forth, slashing from dusk to the second half of the night, raising his sword countless times, falling countless times, and harvesting countless lives.

The defeat was like a mountain, even if the king of Zhongshan ordered the fugitives to be beheaded, he could not stop the soldiers from running for their lives. The king of Zhongshan was killed in a hurry, and decided to go out to fight to the death, but at this time, the loud horn sounded in the sky, and the two cavalry left without hesitation, leaving only dozens of dead military horses, and not even the dead were left.

The King of Zhongshan gasped for breath, remembered his cities, and busily gathered his army to retreat, only to find that most of them had changed masters. There was no way to fight, there was nothing left behind, so he had to order a retreat.

In this battle, the imperial army suffered more than 20,000 casualties, annihilated 70,000 rebels, recaptured eight cities, and drove the main force of the rebels back to the north of Weishui, which is known as the Battle of Minchuan in history.
