Chapter 1009: Layout in advance
At this time, the emperor had accepted the fact that he could not have children, and he couldn't accept it, in order to have children, he drank the tonic as water, but instead made himself empty and could not make up for it, and almost went to see the king of Hades in advance, and finally gave up embarrassing himself in the tearful persuasion.
Because of this, the emperor paid more and more attention to his three children, chose to read with him early, invited Confucianism to teach, and began to enlighten the three children when they were four years old, and cultivated the children from an early age.
Ripple does not object to the emperor's approach, as a prince, he naturally has responsibilities that need to be borne, and learning is only the simplest part of it.
It's just that Ripple doesn't want her three children to become slaves of the imperial power, so she doesn't blindly let her children read sage books, she pays more attention to the cultivation of children's interests and hobbies, and advocates the combination of work and rest, not blindly reading and reading dead books.
The eldest prince Jiang Hongji has the demeanor of a big brother, and he gets up early every day to take his younger brothers and sisters to run laps, zama steps, and boxing, and he believes that the queen mother's words can only do more things if he has a strong physique.
Isn't the father because of his weak body, so he often gets sick, and he needs the queen mother to take care of him when he is sick, and the queen mother can't see them for several days in order to avoid giving them three brothers and sisters too sick, although the three brothers and sisters don't say anything, but they have some small resentments in their hearts.
So for the basic physical workouts, they are very active and not lazy, so each body is very good.
Ripple has already touched the bones of the three little guys, so he chose the martial arts cheats suitable for the three people, and began to teach them since he was a child.
That's how Ripple explained to the emperor, this is her dowry, and now it is passed on to her children, and it is not in vain.
"I heard that Ripple has been weak and sickly since he was a child, but I didn't expect you to practice martial arts?"
When Ripple taught his daughter to play with whips, he was seen by the emperor, and because he was too surprised, he asked directly.
"Your Majesty, how could you believe those rumors?"
Ripple pretended to be surprised.
"The concubine is weak, this is brought out of the mother's womb, it is not sick, but the physical development is slow, in order to let the concubine grow up, the family will also let the concubine practice martial arts appropriately.
It's just that the concubine naturally can't compare with the two elder brothers, at most she protects herself, otherwise the concubine won't be able to protect the three children when the palace changes occur, and the concubine did her best that time."
Ripple's words made the emperor a little uncomfortable, but it also dispelled his doubts, it was really a rumor, several times and three times, every time he felt that the queen was going to die, people survived.
Now that the three children have grown up, even if he wants to do something now, he must take care of the three children, otherwise the children will know his thoughts, and they don't know how to annoy him.
This matter is turned over like this, and the three children have also passed the clear road of martial arts, and no one can say anything without delaying their studies.
Especially the second queen daughter Jiang Yunshan, the little girl is very talented, and she plays with a whip, and with the growth of age and the improvement of martial arts, she has become more and more imposing.
This year is the emperor's thirtieth birthday, and Ripple proposed to organize one, which can be regarded as having fun with the ministers, and the Meng family at the border gate also arranged for people to enter the palace to celebrate his birthday.
Originally, Mrs. Meng wanted to come, but was rejected by General Meng, he didn't want his old wife to upset the queen.
But the more General Meng didn't let Mrs. Meng go, the more stubborn Mrs. Meng became, she always felt that her husband and two sons had something to hide from her, and she was also unwilling for her deceased daughter, and wanted to see what kind of life the ripple stand-in lived, it was simply masochistic.
General Meng felt that his old wife had a magic barrier, so he asked the house doctor to prescribe a pack of medicine, and Mrs. Meng fell ill the next day, which completely dispelled the idea of going to the imperial city.
Ripples naturally didn't know this, but they just met the Meng family who came to meet them, and talked cordially, and in the end, it was still the gray-haired grandmother who stayed at the end.
"Queen Mother, General Meng asked the old slave to bring you a message, saying that the civil war of the Qiang Wolf Clan has ended, and the second prince Moha has become the new king, but because of the continuous war, the Qiang Wolf Clan has suffered a snow disaster that is rare in a century, in order to survive, they
War will be waged next spring."
Ripple squinted her eyes and listened carefully, these were the things she had already guessed.
"Tell General Meng to prepare for battle, and before the Qiang Wolf Clan launches a big battle, eight hundred miles will urgently send the news back to the imperial city.
In addition, he will use his connections to transfer the Meng family's right-hand man to the camp on the outskirts of the imperial city, which will be of great use in the future."
Mama listened to the ripples' words, and her heart jumped, but she still lowered her eyes.
"The old slave has written it down, does the mother have any other orders?"
"Tell the general, this time against the Qiang Wolf Clan, use more generals who are not the Meng family, they are good, and my Meng family is good, if they are promoted, they are also the descendants of my Meng family, there is no need to put the Meng family in an important position, which will make the emperor unhappy."
"Yes, the old slave wrote it down."
"Go down! I'll be back at the border early tomorrow."
"Yes, Queen!"
The old lady bowed respectfully and withdrew from the inner sanctum.
Of course, what Ripple told the old grandmother of the Meng family was to avoid Grandma Sun and Laneige, although these two people were loyal, there were some things they didn't need to know.
The emperor's thirtieth birthday was indeed happy, the court and the hundred officials congratulated, the eldest prince also composed a poem on the spot, the second princess played the pipa music, the third prince danced a set of knife skills, although it was immature but also the first to see the wind bones, was praised for having the wind of the emperor, and was touted countless times for a time.
On the second day, when the three of them went to ask Ripples for peace, the third Hongye quietly asked Ripples:
"Queen Mother, yesterday it was the first time for Erchen to dance this set of sword techniques in front of so many people, and he was a little nervous, so he danced wrong in two places, but those people were still a strong Qualchen, and Erchen felt that they were fake."
Hongji listened to the words of the third brother, and the corners of his mouth twitched, although he also felt so, but he didn't say it.
Ripple smiled and first confirmed the youngest son's guess:
"Sambo (nickname) feels right, some of these people may see your shortcomings, but they won't say it to your face.
First, you are the prince, representing the face of the royal family, and secondly, it is your father's birthday, and no one wants to say it to make your father unhappy.
You just need to know that you don't have to believe all the things these people say in the future, but you can't disbelieve them, but you have to judge for yourself what you believe or not."
Hongye was a little dizzy when he heard it, but Hongji understood it, and immediately nodded:
"Erchen understands, and he will be careful when talking to these people in the future."
Ripples said that Dabao's understanding was also correct.
Just half a year after the emperor's thirtieth birthday, the border pass sent an 800-mile urgent battle report, the new king of the Qiang wolf tribe, Moha, entangled 200,000 Qiang wolf people to invade the border pass, and General Meng had already led troops to block the enemy.
