Chapter 460: The drums of war will rise, and the east will reach the sea

Buzz Buzz......

"Mother......

The sound of bees flying sounded softly in his ears, and his son Beigong Shu's voice stammered. The gentle and virtuous woman stood in front of the half-trimmed potted plant, and she didn't know what her expression should look like at this time.

Maybe there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, maybe it was all these years of loneliness that made her angry, or maybe he was not welcome here, with a look of indifference that refused to make people thousands of miles away.

I remember when I heard the name 'Su Chen', I still knew from my deceased husband that the other party was only eighteen years old at that time, and he was already working against his husband.

Later, I thought that my husband could get rid of this person, but in the end, the other party stood in the court, and the self-righteous husband died in his hands, and he originally hated it in his heart, but then a lot of things happened, and when he looked at him by the bedside, he couldn't hate it anyway.

After living in Ding'an for five years, she sometimes hated, but she hated and hated, and when she heard her daughter's babbling dream words next to her, her hatred turned into a slight sigh.

All along, she has been listening to the rumors outside, listening to him ruling the six countries, truly ruling the world, listening to his efforts to keep the people of the world fed and clothed, and feeling distressed about this man.

Maybe she felt that she had been guarding a pair of children in this life, but the familiar figure stood in front of her, and she didn't know how to speak, so she stood in place in a daze, and she didn't know that the flowers in her hands were cut off at her feet.

Until her daughter Yingying ran over and pulled her skirt and swayed, "Mother...... There are youkai. The figure on the other end of the field of vision walked towards him.

In the delicate flower garden, Jiang Wan was short of breath, and her chest rose and fell violently as she approached: "You cut these flowers?" It's beautiful! When the words sounded, Su Chen withdrew his gaze from the potted plants in the flower garden, and looked at the woman in front of him with a smile.

"It's been a long time since I've come to see you."

Jiang Wan lowered her head and lowered her gaze, the sun shone down, she stood quietly at her feet, her eyelashes blinked, blinked, hearing this greeting, her body trembled slightly, tears slipped down the corners of her eyes, she quickly wiped the corners of her eyes, and then squeezed out a smile towards the man in front of her, and bowed slightly.

"People's girl Jiang Wan, meet Your Majesty."

The young man on the side pursed his lips, tremblingly bowed his hand, and then bowed respectfully.

"Mother...... Who is he? The five-year-old girl pulled the corner of her mother's skirt and asked, seeing her mother crying, she turned around and raised her fleshy little face, pouted and glared at Su Chen, like a small-brained tiger, and shouted fiercely: "Don't bully my mother!" ”

"What's her name?"

Jiang Wan sniffed and said in a low voice, "Su Ying." ”

Saying that, she stroked the child's head, "Yingying, don't be so fierce, he is your father." ”

"Huh?"

The 'fierceness' on the immature little face suddenly turned sluggish, and he looked up at the tall figure in front of him in a daze. Su Chen smiled, reached out and rubbed her little brain, and then said to Jiang Wan, "Don't invite me in to sit?" ”

……

Know...... Know...... Know......

The warm wind slowly blew through the courtyard, the branches and leaves swayed gently, the summer cicada lay on the shaking treetops and hissed one after another, Beigong Shu squatted under the eaves and was stunned, I don't know what she was thinking, the little girl next to her also learned from her brother to squat on the ground, holding her hands between her knees and her chest, she squinted, and then yawned.

Hearing the chuckle next to her, the little girl turned her head to see the fierce-looking giant man looking at her, and then she also pretended to be a 'fierce' expression and glared back, muttering: "Big monster! ”

In the side room, the furnishings are delicate and warm, Jiang Wan is dragging her long skirt and making a pot of tea, Shi Shiran came over, filled the teacup for Su Chen, and then smiled softly at him.

Su Chen sat down on the chair, put his hands on the armrests, and quietly looked at the woman sitting opposite.

The fragrance of tea lingered around the room, and after being quiet for a while, he still spoke: "Really don't want to go back with me?" ”

Jiang Wan pulled her hair, her eyes didn't dare to look at Su Chen, and she shook her head after a moment of silence.

"Your Majesty Xie's kindness, in the past few years in Ding'an, the concubine has lived comfortably, fiddling with flowers and plants in her spare time, and when she is bored, she takes Shu'er and Yingying to go shopping outside, go outside the city, and see the landscape. If you return to the palace, not to mention changing your surname and name, just the open and secret battles between His Majesty's queen and the concubines are not what the concubines want. ”

"I understand, and I don't force it, but I owe a little bit in my heart, to you, to Yingying......" Su Chen is no longer an impulsive age of eighteen or nineteen, especially in the past few years when he was the emperor.

"In the past few years, I have been busy living a good life for the people of the world, busy with the east and the west, but I have let my women and daughters be lonely."

"Your Majesty is a good emperor."

When Jiang Wan heard this, she smiled gently, suddenly got up and walked in front of Su Chen, slowly squatted down, and held the man's hand, "Your Majesty is eloquent, the country and the society in your heart, and the people of the world, although the concubine is trapped in this mansion, I have also heard the words of outsiders who respect Your Majesty, they all say that Your Majesty is a Ming Jun who has not been born for hundreds of years, and every time I think of this, the suffering in the body and mind of the concubine is nothing." ”

"But...... Not a good father. ”

Su Chen felt the woman's warm palm rubbing the back of his hand, he closed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and then said, "I will personally conquer the Japanese this year." ”

The slender jade fingers that caressed the back of the man's hand stopped, and in the warm room, Jiang Wan raised her head and looked at the emperor in front of her.

"Your Majesty wants to go in person?"

Su Chen sat there, looked at her, and then nodded, "This time I have to go in person, and I have to do some things myself." When I returned to Ding'an, preparations had already begun for the conquest of the East China Sea Islands, and the holy decree had been issued. The troops were on two fronts, and the sailors of Feiyungang were descending from the north, and Guan Yu led the Wuzhou navy to set off from the south, and after leaving Ding'an, I was going back to Yanjing. ”

"Your Majesty......" Jiang Wan didn't know what to say, she leaned down gently, and put her face on Su Chen's legs, "The concubine doesn't understand this, when Your Majesty goes on the expedition, the concubine will definitely pray for Your Majesty in the Buddhist Hall." ”

"Pray, I don't believe in it, it's better to let me stay here for a few days, it's more realistic."

Hearing this, Jiang Wan, who was leaning on the man's legs, turned red. However, she didn't refuse, just moved her fingertips and gently drew circles on the back of Su Chen's hand.

Soon, Su Chen walked out of the door and asked Thirteen to go back and tell the Su family that he was going to stay here for three days, and then go back to live for two days. Thirteen naturally understood, and immediately returned to Su Mansion and told Xiao Wu what Su Chen said, the old woman was not confused, and her own son asked Thirteen to come back and say this, in fact, from another aspect, let the Su family take care of one or two more.

"Thirteen, do you really see clearly? How tall and how big is that little girl? ”

Thirteen had Su Chen's instructions, so he naturally told Xiao Wan what he saw when he entered the mansion, and there was also sister-in-law Yin Suhuan on the side, she covered her mouth in surprise.

"So that Yingying, is it ......" she looked at her mother-in-law, "is it the granddaughter of the old lady?" ”

Xiao Wu walked back and forth in the yard on crutches, the smile on her face never broke, she was worried that after her grandson left in a few days, there would be no one around, but she didn't expect that the third child and a daughter had been in Ding'an City all the time, and she was actually hidden as a mother.

For this granddaughter who appeared unexpectedly, the old man naturally loves the house and Wu, and he is very anxious, probably to wait for Su Chen to leave, and visit him in person, it is best to take the mother and daughter together, no matter how bad it is, let the granddaughter live with him for a while.

And Su Chen in Jiang's house also lived a comfortable life for three days, taking Su Ying around all day long, and Jiang Wan serving her at night, perhaps knowing that Su Chen was going to recruit the Japanese in person, and on the bed, she tried her best to satisfy the man.

Two days later, Su Chen returned to Su Mansion and was called by his mother Xiao Wu to the Su family ancestral hall for a good training, but then the old woman asked her son about Su Ying's situation with a smile, and when she heard the description, she knew that her temperament was very similar to Su Chen's when she was a child, and she was a little naughty, Xiao Wu didn't care at all, but found it interesting.

However, Su Chen was a little depressed, he actually had a younger sister.

It's a pity that they didn't have a chance to play together, so they had to return to Yanjing with their father, and five days passed in a blink of an eye, and when they left Ding'an, the Su family and the officials of the government went outside the city to see them off.

However, in the distance of the crowd, Su Chen saw a lonely carriage parked on the side of the road, and knew that it was Jiang Wan's mother and daughter without guessing, and when he was leaving, the curtain of the car was opened, and Jiang Wan waved at him with Su Ying in her arms.

And Su Chen also saw his sister at this time, and also waved goodbye to her with a smile in the car window.

At the same time that the team left Ding'an City and returned to Yanjing, the holy decree of the expedition had gone to Wuzhou in the south, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei took over all the military and political power in Wuzhou from Guan Ping, Zhang Bao, and Zhou Cang. Zhao Kuian, the general of the Wuzhou Navy, also began to train his soldiers and warships more and more.

Large quantities of grain, bows, crossbows, and iron cannons also began to be transported out of the storehouse, registered, and distributed.

On the side of Feiyungang, the last batch of Huya and Qinglong warships were delivered one by one and sent to Zhou Yu's command, and a large number of recruited sailors and soldiers were being trained at sea day by day.

Not long after Su Chen returned to Yanjing, the drums of war also sounded.
