Chapter 164: The Situation of Later Construction (I)
After sending Yan Beiyue away, Xiao Yu took the initiative to find Xiao Yue, and Xiao Yu was angry, half of it was really annoyed, and half of it was just playing. However, Xiao Yue didn't dare to touch Xiao Yu's moldy head at this time, and sat in a precarious position, obediently listening to his brother's lecture.
After Xiao Yu sat down, he said slowly: "Xiaoyue, I thought about it, there are many things that should not be hidden from you, and I should let you know something. Now in our northwest, there is actually only one face left, and this face is still earned by winning the northeast in the end, as for the inside, it has long been hollowed out. Why did I launch the southern expedition, not because of the arrogance of the outside world, but because the northwest is barren and can't afford to support these 230,000 iron horsemen, so there is no way but to rush the southern expedition, and in the end it will fail. To put it mildly, if Xiao Jin hadn't persuaded Lu Qian at the last moment to let Lan Yu retire safely, I'm afraid that half of the northwest would have changed his surname. ”
Xiao Yue raised his head and asked, "What about Yan Beiyue?"
Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Although there is not much left of our northwest foundation, the vitality of the 200,000 army is still there, and this is also our last capital, and many people are fighting the idea of this northwest army in my hands." Especially on Hou Jian's side, as the little emperor grew older, he was no longer willing to be at the mercy of the five uncles, so he had no choice but to rely on Murong Yan, who had a large army in his hands, to play a balance between the five kings and the generals. The so-called way of balance can also be regarded as a stalemate that no one dares to act rashly, so the little emperor urgently needs a third party to break this impasse. ”
Xiao Yue has never been emotionally interested in things like the general trend of the world, but listening to Xiao Yu talk about it at this time, he didn't feel bored, but had some insight into the world.
But then Xiao Yu's words made Xiao Yue's face pale with horror, "When I was unconscious, there were many mutineers, and in order to maintain the situation, your sister-in-law had to use thunderous means to put you, Huaiyu, Moshu and other old people in the Eastern Capital under house arrest. Xiaoyue, have you thought about it, if your brother really can't wake up, what will happen to you and Huaiyu? Since ancient times, there have been no relatives in the heavenly family, brothers cannibalism and father-son fighting, you must have heard a lot, everything involves a power word, only more bloody and not the bloodiest, the original Xiao Lie was not the Xiao family's descendants, but now where have the descendants who should have inherited the title of Duke of Anguo gone? If I can't wake up, no matter how compassionate your sister-in-law is, she won't dare to let you and Huaiyu out, you are lucky, it is difficult to see the light of day in this life, and your luck is worse, I am afraid that you will become dry bones in the grave. ”
Xiao Yue's face turned pale.
Xiao Yu continued: "I say these words, not to ask you to hate your sister-in-law, but to let you understand that many times you can't act willfully, even if it's me, although I am on the throne of the northwest, I can't act arbitrarily. Let me give you an analogy: If the northwest really reaches the point where there is not enough to eat, and everyone wants to knock on the pass and go south, but I still insist on sticking to the northwest, what will be the result? Naturally, I, the king of the northwest who went against the general trend, was overthrown by the generals. In the same way, everyone does not agree to go to the post-construction, and I try to make the rear-end construction, if it wins, it is fine, but if it is defeated, someone will always have to take responsibility. ”
Xiao Yue finally spoke: "Brother, you'll be fine." ”
Xiao Yu said with a smile: "As long as you keep winning, you will naturally be fine." ”
Xiao Yue's face was a little dazed, and Xiao Yu explained: "Looking at a word, you can't see or touch it, but it can make people convincing." The so-called lord Shaoguo is suspicious, age is only one aspect, and the more important thing is that the little emperor has no prestige, whether it is Da Zheng or Hou Jian, the two little emperors can be regarded as sympathetic. The same is true for others, they all say that changing generals in battle is a taboo, and it is easy to cause instability in the army's morale, but this time in the Xiheyuan War, I replaced Min Xing with Xu Lin, but no one said much, do you know why? It is because Xu Lin has accumulated hope for many years, even if he does not have half of the authority in his hands, just standing in front of the Northwest Army is enough to convince these veterans of a hundred battles. If my brother can continue to win, his prestige will naturally increase, and I will not be able to do anything about it, and even go against the trend a little, but my brother is still a little hot now. ”
Xiao Yue snorted as if he didn't understand.
Xiao Yu stood up and patted the top of her head, and said with a smile: "Finally, I don't like to hear it, Wanyan Beiyue is not a deep city, but he is not a good person, don't always go to him." ”
Xiao Yue's face turned red suddenly, and just as he wanted to open his mouth to refute, Xiao Yu had already left.
Xiao Yu walked alone in the palace under the night, silently thinking in his heart that his sister was no longer young, and he should find a good family for her. However, Xiao Yu has a little headache, it stands to reason that this kind of thing should be worried about by Lin Yinping, the mistress of this family, but now that Lin Yinping is pregnant, it would be good to take care of herself, and Xiao Yue was also watched by Xiao Yu to grow up, if it was completely handed over to Lin Yinping, Xiao Yu was really a little worried, so he could only ask himself.
——
After breakfast, Sun Mu, the chief medical officer of the Northwest, personally came to ask Lin Yinping for a pulse.
Today's Northwest has set up the Imperial Medical Office, which is under the name of the palace, among which the chief official of the Imperial Medical Office is Sun Mu, Zheng Sanpin, who is generally only responsible for Xiao Yu and his wife, ordinary people, etc., if there is no Xiao Yu's edict, please naturally please do not move this great medical officer.
There is nothing wrong with Xiao Yu's body, so most of Sun Mu's energy is focused on the frail Lin Yinping, especially after Lin Yinping is pregnant, which makes Sun Mu feel like a great enemy.
Sun Mu knew that if the princess had three longs and two shorts when she was about to give birth, I was afraid that she would bear the brunt of the prince's anger. So during this period of time, he was very attentive, and basically asked Lin Yinping for his pulse once a day, and then adjusted Lin Yinping's body according to the change of pulse.
After asking for the pulse, Sun Mu prescribed the next medicinal food recipe, got up and said goodbye: "This is the princess's meal recipe for today and tomorrow, remember not to drink, not to move, not to work, not to worry." ”
Lin Yinping took the prescription, glanced at it roughly, and said with a smile: "I know, there is a medical officer Laosun." ”
Sun Mu bowed slightly, "Don't dare to call it hard." ”
Lin Yinping smiled and said to the maid beside him, "Send Mr. Sun for me." ”
Not long after Sun Mu left, Xiao Yu, who had not slept all night, walked into Linfeng Pavilion.
At this time, Lin Yinping was teasing his most beloved Colorful Adult, but after looking back, and after finding that it was Xiao Yu, he turned around and continued to feed Colorful.
Xiao Yu ignored the colorful meowing, sat directly on the soft couch, and waved his hand to signal a few maids who were waiting on the side to go out.
Lin Yinping sat opposite Xiao Yu with his arms in his arms, and said softly: "What's the matter, why is it so hot early in the morning?"
Xiao Yu rubbed his forehead and said, "The news I just got last night is that there are some changes in Houjian, and I may have to go to Julu City." ”
Lin Yinping let out a soft and weak sigh, but his right hand, which was stroking the colorful back, suddenly tightened, and the colorful pain that was lying lazily in the arms of the master with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes of different colors, and looked at his master in disbelief.
Xiao Yu stretched out his hand to hold Lin Yinping's soft wing, and said softly: "Don't worry, this time I will take the Tiger Camp over, there will be no waves." ”
Lin Yinping was silent for a while, let go of the cat in his arms, and asked, "When are you leaving?"
Xiao Yu said in a low voice: "It's probably just two or three days of work, I won't go for a long time, and I will be able to come back before the end of the month." ”
Lin Yinping got up slowly, walked to the bird's stand with the parrot, and said quietly: "In a few months, I will give birth." ”
The parrot also followed suit: "Born! born!"
Xiao Yu wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with his hand, knowing that no matter what he said about this kind of thing, he said with a smile: "My wife, Her Royal Highness the Princess, Princess, I promise to go and return quickly." ”
If outsiders were to see this scene, the dignified Northwest King would be so careless and careful, I don't know what to think?
After a long time, although Lin Yinping was a little depressed, he finally spoke: "That's it, if you want to go, you can go, but be careful, I and our unborn child are waiting for you at home." ”
