Chapter 2 Jiang Huan
Xun Yue looked at the ruined Xingming Empire's army in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, he and Jiang Ao had already re-discussed the enemy's strategy, but he didn't expect the other party to retreat silently!
After Jiang Ao led the generals to inspect for a while, he sent a team to investigate, wanting to find out if Yue Han had really withdrawn Xingming, and then returned to Yuenan City unwillingly.
......
It was night, at this time, Jiang Ao was writing the results of the battle in a study, Xun Yue on the side gently shook the white paper fan, closed his eyes slightly, and his mind kept flashing with various possibilities for Yue Han to withdraw his troops.
"Just now, the spies reported that Yue Han really led the army to retreat into the Xingming Empire. But I still can't take it lightly, I have decided that until His Majesty's order comes down, I will still sit in Yuenan City to prevent Yue Han from making a comeback!" Jiang Ao put down his pen and covered it.
Xun Yue closed the white paper fan, opened his slightly closed eyes and said: "Although the marshal's words are reasonable, but Madame is about to give birth! ”
"Then you will send this letter to the military aircraft in Kyoto, and I will wait here for His Majesty's holy decree!" Jiang Ao thought of the child that was about to be born, and looked at Xun Yue.
"It's natural, I'll be back in a day!"
After finishing speaking, Xun Yue's right hand summoned to the table, and the chapter fell into Xun Yue's hand, the door of the study creaked open, and then I saw Xun Yue, who was dressed in green clothes, turned into a ray of blue light and broke through the air, and some of the deputy generals outside the study were not surprised to see it, because they knew that Xun Yue's strength was unfathomable for them.
......
The army of the Xuanyuan Empire in Yuenan City rested on the spot after receiving Jiang Ao's order, but they did not take it lightly, and were always on guard against another attack by the Xingming Empire.
A day passed suddenly, at this time, Jiang Ao was training the army in the Dongcheng campus of Yuenan City, only to see two long rainbows in the distance in the northeast breaking through the sky, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the top of the school field, and then the two figures fell in front of Jiang Ao.
One person is Xun Yue, and the other is an old man dressed in inner palace costumes with a somewhat withered yellow face.
The man looked at Jiang Ao, arched his hands lightly, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Jiang Shuai is above, our family is polite!"
When Jiang Ao saw this person, he opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Fan has broken his handsomeness, no need to be polite!
After Jiang Ao saw the person coming, he knew in his heart that His Majesty had an important will, otherwise he would not have sent Fan Hong, the third-class head of the Inner Palace, to come.
"Your Majesty has an order, although Jiang Ao, the Duke of Zhenguo, failed to defeat the enemy army of Xingming this time, he also kept Yuenan City from losing, and the army did not suffer too many losses. In view of such an abnormal invasion and rapid retreat of the Xingming Empire, in order to ensure safety, Jiang Ao was ordered to return to Beijing for the time being, and at the same time left 600,000 troops and the "Cold Killing Blood General Zhang Hongxun" to temporarily garrison Yuenan City, in charge of the military of Yuenan City, and the Yuenan City Lord fully cooperated!" Fan Hong said in a hoarse voice.
Jiang Ao was overjoyed when he heard this, and then bowed his hand to Fan Hong and said: "The last general will obey the order, thank you to Chief Fan for taking the trouble to come here to pass the order, Jiang Ao has thanked him again!"
Fan Hong didn't make a big deal, and also said with a smile: "Jiang Shuai is polite, in addition, Your Majesty said that since Mrs. Ling is about to give birth, Jiang Shuai can go home first to take care of Mrs., and His Majesty will personally be there to congratulate Jiang Shuai's son when the moon is full." ”
Jiang Ao was even more overjoyed when he heard this, and after quickly ordering the deployment of all matters, he returned to Beijing with Xun Yue and Fan Hong first, and let the rest of the "Nine Blood Generals" then lead the army to return to the court.
......
In about half a day, Jiang Ao and the three of them had returned to Kyoto, and after Jiang Ao and Fan Hong said goodbye to each other, they and Xun Yue quickly rushed back to the Zhenguo Mansion.
In the east city of the Xuanyuan Emperor's capital, there is a luxurious and solemn mansion, which is the Zhenguo Mansion, there are two burly guards guarding the door, and when the pedestrians on the road pass by, they look at the Zhenguo Mansion and reveal infinite respect in their eyes.
Jiang Ao has a lot of prestige among the people, first, he never oppressed the good, and in addition to his outstanding military achievements, he cleared the snow and avengers of many innocent people in the past few years in Kyoto, which also made some people call him "righteous marshal".
After Jiang Ao and Xun Yue came back, Xun Yue said that there were some trivial matters, and then left first, and Jiang Ao hurried home by himself.
Jiang Ao returned to the front of the mansion, the guards in front of the mansion saw the surprise of the welcome, after stepping into the mansion, Jiang Ao went straight to the backyard after entering the mansion, the original serious face was filled with a happy smile, because he thought that it might be a few months at least and a year before he came back, but he didn't expect to return to Beijing in less than half a month, just in time for his wife's birth, so that he would not be ashamed of the unborn child.
"Ma'am, Madam, I'm back!" Jiang Ao shouted all the way.
The maid guards in the mansion saw Jiang Ao's respectful salute, and Jiang Ao walked through the layers of courtyards and went straight to the bedroom in the backyard.
"Is the husband back?" In a quiet and elegant bedroom, there were two seventeen or eighteen-year-old maids around, and a woman who looked like a midwife in her forties. There was a pregnant woman in her twenties who was half-lying on the bed, with an elegant and quiet temperament, and the pregnant woman was Jiang Ao's wife, the first-class protector of the country, and Zhou Ruoyan, the daughter of the Xuanyuan Empire's Taishi.
Jiang Ao pushed open the door, strode to the bed with a happy face, and held the woman's hand.
"Husband, how could you come back so soon on this expedition?" Although Zhou Ruoyan was delighted, she still looked at Jiang Ao suspiciously, she was afraid that Jiang Ao would go home and wait for the birth of the child to disobey and return to Beijing, then this sin would be a big one!
"Madame don't have to worry! This matter is a long story, but the husband returned to Beijing according to His Majesty's order, so Madame don't need to be afraid!" Jiang Ao saw through Zhou Ruoyan's worries, and comforted him.
Jiang Ao slowly told Zhou Ruoyan the reason for returning to Beijing this time, and the midwife and maid on the side also quietly retreated.
......
The lights of the Xuanyuan Imperial Capital in the night are bright, and the night markets in some streets are also lively, and the pedestrians on the road come and go, all of which show the prosperity of the people of the imperial capital.
Zhenguo Mansion...
"Oops......!"
"Madam, Madam, come on, come on!" Jiang Ao hurriedly shouted, only to see the midwife and maid outside the door quickly rush into the room, and then the midwife knew that Zhou Ruoyan was about to give birth after some inspection, Jiang Ao was a layman in this regard, so he immediately asked the maid in the house to obey the command of the midwife.
Zhou Ruoyan's shouts kept coming from the room, Jiang Ao outside the door waited anxiously, at this moment, this battle-hardened marshal showed his tender side, and kept pacing outside the door, if it weren't for some Xun Yue's persuasion, Jiang Ao would have rushed into the room.
"Jiang Ao! Jiang Ao! How is my daughter? Is she born? Is it a man or a girl?"
At this time, there was an anxious sound not far away, and I saw a few people walking quickly towards this side.
The two people in front looked anxious, but they also revealed their joy, the person who came turned out to be Zhou Ruoyan's father, the imperial master Zhou Ping and his wife, and the back was Zhou Ruoyan's eldest brother Zhou Han and second brother Zhou Xuan's family.
When Jiang Ao saw someone coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said respectfully: "Jiang Ao has seen the second elder, Ruoyan still doesn't know what the situation is, and when he hears Ruoyan's shout, the little son-in-law is also anxious!"
"You stupid boy, are you still the iron-blooded marshal? It's normal for a woman to shout when she gives birth, don't worry, just wait well! And you bad old man, what are you yelling for? If you scare my unborn grandson, see if the old woman can't fix you well!" Old Madam Zhou comforted Jiang Ao and scolded Zhou Ping with a smile, and Zhou Ping had no choice but to wait quietly.
......
Half an hour later...
"Wow wow... Wow wow...... Wow wow......"
A burst of baby cries came from the room, and a maid ran out and said happily: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master!
"Raw, born?"
"Hahaha, the old man has a grandson!!"
"It's not just you, it's the old woman's grandson, hahaha, you two stinky boys have a little nephew, you have to be nice to him!
"Congratulations to my brother-in-law, congratulations to my brother-in-law! Mother, please rest assured, we must treat the third sister's child as our own child!" Zhou Han and Zhou Xuan congratulated Jiang Ao happily.
Jiang Ao hurriedly looked at Xun Yue, who was also very excited, and said: "I have to trouble you, Ruoyan's production will definitely hurt her vitality, you can help her sort out the meridians!"
Xun Yue looked at the excited Jiang Ao, and nodded happily. "Don't worry, with me, my sister-in-law's body will recover soon, and there will be no sequelae!"
"Hahaha, okay, in my opinion, you will be my son's godfather!" Jiang Ao happily patted Xun Yue's shoulder.
"Okay, anyway, uncle and godfather are similar!"
After a while, another maid came out and said that the child had already taken a bath, so that Jiang Ao and the others could go in.
Jiang Ao was extremely happy, and immediately ordered that he would reward the midwife and the people in the house.
After everyone entered the room, Xun Yue walked to the bed, pinched the mark with his right hand, and when Zhou Ruoyan gave birth to a child in the room, the heat and a little bloody breath in the room disappeared instantly, replaced by an elegant but not stimulating fragrance, the little baby on the bed seemed to feel such a change, babbling and waving his hand, and everyone laughed.
"Husband, father, mother, two brothers, come and see my child, how cute!" Zhou Ruoyan was lying in Jiang Ao's arms leaning against the edge of the bed at this time, and said to everyone with a happy face.
Jiang Ao nodded to Xun Yue, Xun Yue took a step forward and took out a pill for Zhou Ruoyan to take, Zhou Ruoyan's face quickly became much more ruddy.
"Haha, look at it, my grandson is really beautiful, I don't know how many girls I will charm in the future!" Zhou Ping looked at the baby on the bed and laughed.
"You dead old man, you are still a court master, the child is still so young, what are you thinking about!" When the old lady heard this, she immediately patted Zhou Ping and scolded with a smile.
Zhou Ruoyan looked at the baby on the bed, the happiness on his face was overflowing, after eating Xun Yue's pill, Zhou Ruoyan felt that his body quickly recovered as before, and gently picked up the baby with his hand, and wrapped the child in it with a gentle gaze like water.
"Husband, let's choose a name for the child first!"
"Okay, let the husband think about it!"
At this time, Xun Yue on the side looked at the child in Zhou Ruoyan's arms, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he laughed happily: "Haha, big brother! You are really blessed! This child has an ethereal physique, and his muscles and veins are transparent! Especially when he was born, he has a heroic aura that haunts the dantian! If this child is good at teaching, then the future will be limitless!"
Jiang Ao and Zhou Ruoyan were overjoyed when they heard this, and although Zhou Ping on the side didn't know much about cultivation, they could also tell that what Xun Yue said was a great thing, so they also looked at the newborn child happily.
"Haoran's qi? Since this is the case, then in the future, my son will definitely "be full of mighty qi all over the world, holding the sword and the eight wildernesses!", it is better to call it "Jiang Huan"! I wonder what Mrs. and everyone think?" Jiang Ao said on a whim according to what Xun Yue said.
After Jiang Ao finished speaking, Zhou Ping read a few times and praised it, Zhou Ruoyan also nodded in agreement, kept touching the child, and called Jiang Huan Jiang Huan in his mouth, the child heard the word "Jiang Huan", but he was even more happy, which made everyone more satisfied.
Everyone has been talking about Jiang Huan, and before they know it, it is late at night, and Zhou Ping's family is also living in Jiang Ao's house, saying that they want to see their grandson early the next day.
In the middle of the night, the Xuanyuan Imperial Capital began to become quiet, but the lights in the central palace were the strongest, and there were military patrols in the city from time to time, so that the people in the imperial capital could sleep with peace of mind.
