Chapter 402: Something to Watch
On a June day in Xizhou, it's so hot that people almost want to go crazy. Zhang Zheng helped Cui Shu walk back and forth in the backyard, although the two of them were dressed extremely coolly, their foreheads were also covered with fine beads of sweat.
Cui Shu's belly was already tall, Zhang Zheng put his palm on her belly, and occasionally he could already feel the rhythm of the little life in his stomach.
On the belly, stretch marks are like streaks on watermelon, and even the blood vessels under the skin are clearly visible.
This is also the reason why Zhang Zheng is supporting Cui Shu to walk back and forth. In this era, there is no such thing as caesarean section, and pregnant women must exercise more to consume excess nutrients in their bodies.
Otherwise, if the fetus grows too big, it is easy to have a corpse and two lives. In this era, there is no difference between a woman giving birth to a child and passing through a ghost gate.
"Do you still want to go, I can't walk......" Cui Shu's mouth flickered, staring at Zhang Zheng pitifully like a child.
Looking at Cui Shu, who was in the posture of a little daughter, Zhang Zheng was also a little unbearable. After calculating the time, the two of them have been gone for nearly half an hour, and it is almost the same.
Then he said to her: "Let's do this today, I will accompany you to exercise for at least half an hour every day in the days to come, and I will let people supervise you to drink more water...... As soon as she heard Zhang Zheng's tirade, Cui Shu subconsciously rolled her eyes, and then waved her hand indifferently and said: "I know, I know, I know......" Then he put his hands on his waist and slowly walked towards the pavilion in the backyard.
Zhang Zheng wiped the corners of his mouth, looked at Cui Shu who was far away, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Yes, it's all over again!
had to trot all the way to catch up with Cui Shu's back. The two sat down in the pavilion, and Zhang Zheng pulled a piece of rope from a small spring next to the pavilion.
A bamboo basket is tied under the rope, and the basket is full of melons and fruits. In the impression of many people, the Western Regions seems to be a barren land.
But in fact, on the contrary, not only is the Western Regions not poor, but its abundant products are not far behind those of the Central Plains.
For example, the well-known eggplant, melon, cold melon, walnut, green onion, garlic, coriander, grapes, etc., are actually not products of the Central Plains.
These things, the first produced in the Western Regions, was the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Bowang Hou Zhang Qian sent an envoy to the Western Regions to bring back to the Central Plains, and the Han people in the Central Plains carried out a large-scale cultivation of these things.
Therefore, in the Western Regions, there is a lack of everything, that is, there is no shortage of fruits and vegetables. took out a melon, Zhang Zheng cut it with a knife, and handed it to Cui Shu.
The chilled melons and fruits of the cold well water are just right for quenching your thirst in June. Zhang Zheng also picked up a piece of melon and gnawed it slowly, enjoying the rare sweetness of the Tang Dynasty.
A quiet afternoon was about to pass, but a human head came out of nowhere.
"If you dare to take something from my basket without washing your hands, don't blame me for taking your hands off and washing them." As soon as Zhang Zheng's words came out, Qiu Shisan's face suddenly appeared bright, and his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
"From the end of the country to Xizhou, my subordinates have not entered a drop of water for three days and three nights, and they are really thirsty." Qiu Shisan, who was covered in dust, opened his mouth to explain.
But Zhang Zheng still stared at him with squinted eyes, and said lightly: "Wash your hands." β
"Oh." Seeing that Zhang Zheng's attitude was so resolute, Qiu Shisan had to run to the well to wash his face and hands.
Then he came to Zhang Zheng and Cui Shu and sat down with a big grin, hugged half a melon and began to nibble on it.
While gnawing, he asked vaguely: "Shaolangjun summoned me back in such a hurry, is there something wrong?" Faced with Qiu Shisan's doubts, Zhang Zheng did not speak immediately.
On the contrary, Cui Shu on the side looked at Qiu Shisan with a pair of curious eyes and asked, "You are the secret agent next to Fujun, what are you going to do?" Qiu Shisan's action of gnawing on the melon was stunned, and he didn't know why, he always felt uncomfortable being stared at by Cui Shu's gaze.
subconsciously put down Erlang's legs, and then sat up, looking at Zhang Zheng with questioning eyes.
"Madame is her own person, there is no need to hide it from her." Zhang Zheng took the lead in explaining, then looked at Qiu Shisan, and said to himself: "There are two main things when I come back this time, you know this person, right?" β
"Yes!" Qiu Shisan nodded like a chicken pecking rice, since Xiao Langjun said that this lady could be trusted, then he had no need to hide it.
"Well, I want you to find a way to pry his mouth open without me knowing." Zhang Zheng said lightly the first thing that asked Qiu Shisan to come back, Qiu Shisan, this person, he didn't look in shape, but Zhang Zheng was still more relieved to do things.
Qiu Shisan pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Well, what about the second thing?" Zhang Zheng sorted out his thoughts and said: "The second thing is to ask you what are the recent movements of the countries in the Western Regions, and I am talking about the kind that is worth paying attention to." Zhang Zheng especially pointed out the four words worth paying attention to, most of the news reported to Zhang Zheng before the case these days is a small thing of little value.
Zhang Zheng couldn't get anything valuable from it at all, so summoning Qiu Shisan back also meant to let him have more snacks.
As soon as Zhang Zheng's words came out, Qiu Shisan's heart was suddenly shocked, and he finally realized that Zhang Zheng had begun to be a little dissatisfied with the progress of his work during this time.
I couldn't help but sit upright, and my mind began to run wildly, thinking about what was worth paying attention to in the Western Regions countries recently.
After thinking about it for a while, he really came up with a thing, but this matter was also something he had only recently figured out, so he didn't have time to convey the news to Zhang Zheng.
After tidying up the Silk Road, Qiu Shisan slowly spoke: "If you want to talk about the things worth paying attention to in the Western Regions, your subordinates were in the capital of the end of the country a few days ago, and a big thing happened in the end of the country, and the end of the country wanted to abolish the matter, but it was not successful...... I wonder if this is something worth paying attention to? β
"Huh?" When Zhang Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, and scolded: "Why don't you report such an important matter to me?" β
"This, Shaolang Jun Mingjian, it's not that your subordinates are inactive, the main thing is that this happened the day before you summoned your subordinates back to Xizhou." Qiu Shisan's hands were spread, and he didn't have wings, so it was already very good to be able to bring this news back to Xizhou within three days, okay.
Hearing that it was something that had happened recently, Zhang Zheng's face turned slightly pale, and then he asked again: "Since there was almost a coup d'Γ©tat in China, have you inquired about the political positions of both sides?" Qiu 13 shook his head and said: "This subordinate is not very clear, because as soon as this happened, my subordinate received your urgent report, but my spies have already infiltrated the palace of the end of the king, and it is estimated that there will be news back in a few days." β
