Chapter 71: Pregnant
The emperor wants balance, and anyone, including his own son, will feel threatened if there is too much power and no one to check and balance.
Although Yang Jian is the hero, majestic and strategic, and has the world in mind, but because of this, he is more insecure than others.
This vast empire gives him daily gains and losses.
The crown prince is powerful, the king of Jin is rising, all kinds of support and trust, now the prince has been abolished, and the king of Jin's family is dominant, so he has to support another person to balance it.
In the real sense, the emperor trusts the most is Gao Xi, who does not stand in line, but only does things.
However, in Yang Guang's opinion, this is also beneficial, once Yang Xiu rises to power, maybe the day of becoming the prince will officially come.
After equalization, the emperor will not be so scrupulous about him.
Yang Guang had thought about this matter before, but he was really worried that if he did it to Nan Chen now and really defeated Nan Chen, would he be a great meritor.
He didn't think that the emperor would be jealous of his son to the point of doing it, after all, there was no advanced case of the Xuanwumen Revolution now, and the worst result he could think of was that Yang Guang would have the idea of seizing power next.
The emperor is in the prime of life, how can he tolerate someone seizing power.
Therefore, Yang Guang can help Yang Xiu and should also help Yang Xiu.
And Yang Guang thought about it carefully, according to Yang Xiu's character and the current mood of desperately wanting to make contributions, it is obvious that the communication with Tuyuhun will definitely have to fight as long as Tuyuhun is not groveling.
After the fight, the advantage must be on me.
And Yang Xiu doesn't have as many B things as Yang Yong, and there shouldn't be a sudden death of the boss, and there is a high probability that Tuyuhun will definitely not be able to beat Da Sui.
Tuyuhun has been laid down hard, so what about the follow-up governance?
Who will govern it?
The approximate range of the modern Tuyuhun is in the area of Qinghai and Ningxia, not to mention this era, even in modern times, it is a vast and sparsely populated place, and it often controls a few major cities even if it controls the entire region.
Yang Xiu defeated it, and it stands to reason that Yang Xiu should govern this fiefdom.
But this place is not the Central Plains, it is a place of external trouble, and its territory cannot be compared with the richness of the Central Plains, not to mention letting the people of the Central Plains pass, even if the soldiers live here for a long time, there will be resistance.
The problem with Tuyuhun is that they are collecting tolls more and more ruthlessly, but the prices of goods in the Western Regions have been ridiculously high since they arrived in the Central Plains, and the quantity is still decreasing, not the problem of the governance of this land.
Before the great leap forward in human development capabilities, many places were vast and sparsely populated, because in the face of nature, human beings could only obey forever, unable to open mountains and divert water.
We often say that the land of the Central Plains is infested and infected by neighboring countries, but from another point of view, the most fertile land on this land is in our Central Plains.
Aside from these factors, it is a troublesome thing to govern the local area alone, and it often takes a long time to integrate these with the locals.
Yang Guangdu had already thought about how to write his own twists and turns if Yang Xiu started fighting directly and after beating Tuyuhun.
Then push the boat down the river, the king of Shu laid down Tuguhun, and said that the king of Shu should be brave, and by the way, it would be good to recommend the king of Shu to govern this place.
Logical and reasonable.
At this time, Xiao Menglan walked over, her face was full of red light, and for some reason, she seemed to be a little blessed.
Xiao Menglan has always had a physique that can't eat fat, I haven't seen her control any diet, and her body shape has always been maintained in the appearance of a girl, today I don't know if I was wrong or what, I feel that Xiao Menglan seems to have gained a little weight.
But it's not easy to ask, and women's weight has been taboo throughout the ages.
"Your Highness has only been there for more than twenty days this time, but it is much faster than before."
"Cao Zheng, the first champion of our Great Sui, is more stable and old than I expected, and he has done a good job, I am going to see the situation, everything is going according to plan, and I will come back early."
Yuan Tiantian leaned out from behind Xiao Menglan, and said with a bright smile on his face: "Your Highness, what is different about the princess?" ”
Xiao Menglan patted her: "Don't mess around." ”
Yang Guang was a little puzzled.
Xiao Menglan didn't intend to tease Yang Guang, and smiled lightly, like a pink lotus in full bloom.
"Your Highness, the concubine is pregnant."
Xiao Menglan personally told Yang Guang the good news, three points of shyness and seven points of pride.
Yang Guang's eyes widened, looking at Xiao Menglan with joy, he was a little flustered for a while, His Royal Highness the King of Jin, who was always calm and always calm, was happily panicked today.
Looking at Yang Guang's appearance, Xiao Menglan was even happier.
Yang Guang, who calmed down a little, asked, "When did you find out?" Have you seen it for Lao Sun? What about the fetal position? ……”
Faced with Yang Guang's cannon-like problem, Xiao Menglan gently grabbed his hand, Xiao Menglan's palm was small and her fingers were slender, but she always felt extremely warm when she held it.
"Your Highness, it's only been two months, how can there be a fetal position."
Yuan Tiantian was very happy to help Xiao Menglan and said: "Your Highness, on the third day after you left, the princess's day was postponed for several days, and the grandmother in the house immediately reacted, and then invited Mr. Sun to take the pulse, and the happy pulse was confirmed on the same day, and now Mr. Sun comes to check the princess's pulse every two days." ”
The grandmothers in the palace are staring at these things, and it's not that the women don't understand anything in the romance, the princess's days of coming to relatives are calculated by the grandmothers every month.
Xiao Menglan is usually healthy, even if it is a little inaccurate, it will be a matter of three or five days, this time it has been seven or eight days and has not come, Xiao Menglan herself has not noticed, but the grandmothers immediately understood, and immediately called the doctor to check the pulse first, and after measuring the happy pulse, Xiao Menglan herself was also very surprised, and asked Yuan Tiantian to invite Sun Simiao to take the pulse, a little safer.
When Sun Simiao learned that the princess was pregnant, she did her best.
"Why don't you send a message to me earlier, and I'd better come back as soon as possible."
Xiao Menglan whispered: "It is a serious matter for His Highness to be busy outside, how can it be temporarily changed because of our women's people." This is also what Xiao Menglan realized from the prince's previous events.
She naturally wanted to tell Yang Guang about her pregnancy earlier, but once she sent someone to say that Yang Guang would leave everything behind and come back temporarily, although she would be very happy and satisfied, it was not a good thing for Yang Guang.
What will those who follow him think? The person to whom he is loyal is a man whose wife covers his head and runs back whenever something happens? Is it a person who can't tell the difference?
She must not drag Yang Guang back.
"Your Highness, the concubine doesn't want others to tell you about this matter, so the concubine has to tell you herself."
Yang Guang clenched Xiao Menglan's hand, his eyes were extremely firm: "Menglan, this is great, I also have to inform my father and queen mother of this news as soon as possible." ”
"Your Highness, you have just returned, rest for a while, and go again tomorrow."
"No, I have to go today, I'll go now."
Yang Guangxing rushed out, walked back halfway through, and instructed Yuan Tiantian: "Take the princess back to the house early to rest every day, this day is getting colder and colder, what if the princess catches the cold?" From today onwards, the princess will not be allowed to leave the house without my permission. ”
Xiao Menglan chuckled: "Your Highness, are you going to put your concubines under house arrest?" ”
"It's under house arrest, it's house arrest for good food and drink."
Yang Guang watched Xiao Menglan go back to the room, and then continued to set off for the palace.
His mansion was also close to the palace, and it was not long to arrive.
After entering the palace, the emperor was still dealing with government affairs, Yang Guang went to see Queen Dugu first, and he didn't talk nonsense when he met, and said directly to Queen Dugu: "Queen Mother, Menglan is pregnant." ”
Queen Dugu was drinking tea, and this sudden news made her almost knock over the tea.
With a smile on his face, he said: "Why don't you give people time to prepare when you talk about such a major matter, just like shouting at the entrance of the village, you shout when you come in, which startles the palace." ”
Yang Guang instinctively smiled, with a slightly honest style: "Queen Mother, I'm just too excited." ”
Queen Dugu paced left and right, smiling and clapping her hands: "Okay, good, it's good to be pregnant, it's good to be pregnant, haha, have you seen it with a doctor?" ”
"Let Mr. Sun take the pulse."
"That's good, that's good."
Queen Dugu immediately arranged: "This is your first child, and then you don't have anything else to do, don't run around, just stay in Daxing City and guard it well, in case Meng Lan gives birth to a boy, it will be your eldest son, today you go back to the palace to send you a few capable grandmothers over, Mama Li, you yourself know, although you are a little unscrupulous in character, but you are safe and loyal, let you go to your house." ”
With the lesson of the East Palace, Queen Dugu is very worried now, such a big scandal, if she comes again, she can't guarantee that she won't be able to come up in one breath and it will pass.
Therefore, the people sent to the past, on the one hand, are the most trustworthy to take care of them, in case something happens, and on the other hand, they are also to do eyeliner to avoid the situation of Yun Zhaoxun.
Yang Guang responded: "Thank you Queen Mother." ”
If Yang Yong had to excuse himself, Yang Yong didn't like the emperor and empress to install people in his mansion, and when the time came, he would report everything he did every day to the empress.
Queen Dugu was overjoyed: "You, you can be regarded as pregnant, if you can't conceive again, I will have to find a doctor to show the two of you." ”
"I'll just say that Menglan's figure, I have seen it well from the beginning, no matter how you look at it, it is a good body, it was because she was too young, and she got together less and left more, and you spent more time together during this time, which brought good news, great, great."
"Also, this is Menglan's first child, the woman's first child should pay special attention, and there are many concubines in your house, can you manage it yourself?"
Yang Guang replied: "The queen mother can rest assured, the women who live in the house, only Qi Liangxun (Ha Sayaqi) and Meng Lan's own big maid, Qi Liangxun is a lively and active character, I should let her avoid it, Yuan Tiantian is fine, Meng Lan has a way to control herself, and all the affairs of the house are taken care of by herself." ”
Queen Dugu thought for a while and said, "What about Tang Tongan?" ”
"Sister Tong'an is not a concubine."
"I've been living in the Jin Wangfu all these years, can I still let her go out and get married? The old Duchess of Tang Guo has also said it to me several times, and this is what she said in and out of her words, Li Yuan is so close to you, you can't be close because of this matter, take advantage of the fact that Princess Jin is pregnant, it can be regarded as a side concubine for you, and you will officially accept it. ”
"This ...... I'll go home and talk to Menglan. ”
"You don't have to say it, it's hard for you to speak, this palace will say it personally."
"Son, thank you Queen Mother."
Yang Guang can see that Queen Dugu has no objection to her taking a concubine, what she hates is just lustful and anxious to take a concubine, this kind of show is that you are willing and there are interests, she does not object.
After being happy, Queen Dugu said earnestly: "Amo, you and Meng Lan are the first child, you are still young, whether you have a son or a daughter, you can give birth to a lot in the future, you see that after your mother gave birth to your eldest sister, she gave birth to five of you in a row, so you don't have to be too anxious, and you don't have to put pressure on Meng Lan." ”
The ancients were very patriarchal, but Queen Dugu was not.
"Queen Mother, do you remember what your son said to you before?"
"What?"
"A woman can hold up half the sky, and for her sons, giving birth to children is the same, and she will never be neglected because she has a daughter."
Women can hold up half the sky, and they have the same children, the powerful power in the text once again made Queen Dugu deeply agree, and nodded heavily, her son is the one who said such things, how can such a person still need to be reminded by himself.
"Good, good, good!"
The queen even said yes, and at this time, the emperor's voice came from outside the door.
"What is so happy, I heard your laughter as soon as I walked to the door."
The emperor drove to everyone to salute, the queen bowed, and the emperor took her hand and got up: "Amo, what's wrong today, make your queen mother so happy." ”
"Father, Meng Lan is pregnant, and the queen mother is happy for her son."
"Oh? That's a good thing. ”
The emperor, who was usually not happy and angry, was also happy when he heard the news.
"Those medicinal materials and the like in the palace, if you need anything, just come and get it, let Princess Jin live and raise it well, and give me a big fat grandson, hahaha."
Emperors are patriarchal.
Because in this era, the son is also a powerful political resource, and to some extent the most powerful.
Having a son also means that you have a successor to the political resources you have built, and other people's investment in you can even get a certain return after your death.
If your son is good enough, then people will be more willing to invest in you.
As the saying goes, the East Palace is the foundation of the country, and this is the truth.
If the emperor doesn't have a son, the ministers don't know who they will go to invest in the next generation, can your empire be stable?
