Chapter 700
The rising sun shines through the thin clouds, turning into wisps of golden light and spreading across the earth. Walking on the road, the wind gently blows on the face, which is indescribably comfortable.
As soon as Yu Xi finished her breakfast and was about to go to the front yard, she saw Xu Wu hurriedly walking over, and said with a happy face, "Princess, there is a good news from Changshui. Wangfei, the prince will beat Changshui down in the face." The battle ahead Unfavorable, Xu Wu has been hanging on his mind.
Yu Xi smiled, and before she could speak, Zao Zao raised her voice and said: "Mother, I just said that father is the best." Zao Zao dared not say the sentence that father would not lose a battle.
Yuxi was also very happy to win the battle ahead. But after listening to Zaozao's words, Yuxi still said: "There are heavens and people outside the sky, there are people outside the sky, you must not be complacent, you know?"
Zaozao hurriedly replied: "Got it." If the attitude is not good, she will be lectured by mother again later, and Zaozao is most afraid of being lectured by Yuxi.
Brother Yu stretched out his head and said, "Mom, for such a big happy event, can you give us a day off to celebrate it?" Only two days off every month is too little.
Yuxi said with a smile: "You write to ask your father, as long as your father agrees, mother has no objection."
Brother Yu shrank his head. If he had written this letter, his father would definitely beat him to death when he came back.
In the morning, Yuxi received a letter written by Wu Kuo. A smile appeared on Yu Xi's face after reading it, and she said to Xu Wu: "Wu Kuo said that Qiu Ye has agreed to send troops to intercept Yu Baojia's ship, and after negotiation, we will share 30% of the spoils."
Xu Wu frowned and said, "Thirty percent? Is it too little?" No matter what, it should be divided equally.
Yuxi said: "Thirty percent is already a lot." The movement of soldiers and horses is a huge cost, and a part of it will be distributed to the soldiers below. Yuxi thinks it's pretty good to be able to distribute 30% of the total to them.
When Xu Wu saw Yuxi say this, he didn't continue to dwell on this topic.
Yuxi said: "Wu Xing and Changshui have already been defeated, and Hongzhou should also be resolved." Yuxi's method is very simple. On the one hand, he sends people to lobby the other party's generals, and on the other hand, he asks Xu Zhen to attack the city. This time is different from before, but this time it's for real.
Xu Wu said with a smile: "After Hongzhou is defeated, Xu Zhen can lead troops to attack Wuzhou."
Yuxi said: "Use him to lead troops to fight Wuzhou? When he regains the Raozhou area, the prince will have already defeated Wuzhou." After Qiantang was captured and Yu Baojia fled, there was no need for Wuzhou. It can be taken down with any force.
Xu Wu calculated in his mind and said: "The lord will be back soon." It is now May, and the war will end in more than a month.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "Not so fast. Jiangnan's government affairs and military affairs have to be rectified, and those remnants of forces must be eliminated. The prince will definitely stay for a while." But she has to send someone to assist Yunqing in handling government affairs. She had to think carefully about this choice.
Xu Wu smiled and said, "I will definitely come back years ago."
At noon, the Han family sent a letter saying that Mrs. Ye was critically ill, and wanted to invite Dr. He to come over and treat Mrs. Ye. Dr. He is now the exclusive doctor of Pingxi Palace, and ordinary people can't invite him.
Yuxi was a little surprised, and asked the mother-in-law who came to deliver the letter: "Before, I just said that I was not feeling well and needed to take good care of myself. Why did I become critically ill?" It was too sudden.
The mother-in-law said respectfully: "A few days ago, the eldest lady received a letter from the elder. After reading the letter, the eldest lady fainted. After waking up, her spirit has not been very good." As for Ye's detailed situation, mother-in-law She didn't say it, because she knew that Yuxi wouldn't be interested if she said it.
Yuxi didn't even ask Han Jianming what he said in the letter: "I will let Dr. He go to the Han Mansion." Ye Shi will not stop until he kills himself.
so many things,
Yu Xi didn't have the energy to be entangled with Ye Shi. But in the evening, Lu Xiu came over.
Lu Xiu came here this time not because of Mrs. Ye, she had another matter to tell Yuxi: "Princess, I heard a rumor recently that Madam Yu's twin daughters were not born to her but Adopted." Yu Cong is now fighting outside, Lu Xiu was worried that the rumor would cause bad consequences, after much deliberation, she decided to tell Yuxi about it.
Yu Xi asked indifferently: "Who did you listen to?" In fact, after meeting those two children, Yu Xi knew that it would be impossible to hide this matter sooner or later. Lin has been seeking medical treatment and taking medicine, but she has been unable to conceive for more than ten years, but she suddenly became pregnant and gave birth to twins. Those who are interested must be a little strange. But the twins don't look alike at all. The most important thing is that the two children don't look like Yu Cong and his wife from head to toe. And with Brother Rui's three-guarantee brother as a reference, there is no doubt that it will be difficult.
Lu Xiu lowered her voice and said, "I heard from General Xu Zhen's wife. Wangfei, many people have heard about it now. I'm afraid only Madam Yu herself doesn't know about it."
Yuxi said expressionlessly: "The child looks a lot different from his parents, because it is suspected that he is not his own? Liu'er is not like me and the prince, so could it be that he is not his own?"
Lu Xiu said with a smile: "How could this be? The second princess's demeanor is exactly the same as that of the princess." There is no need for Yuxi to raise a daughter at all, this logical fool knows it. As for Brother Hao, his facial features also resemble Yunqing and Yuxi, and no one doubts it.
Yuxi hummed and said: "Bearance can be cultivated, but Liu'er is like her grandmother. The two children of the Yu family may be like Liu'er, like the elders of Yu Cong!" Although she knew the truth, her attitude was still the same. To be put out.
Lu Xiu already knew Yu Xi's attitude, she nodded immediately and said: "The princess is very right."
After talking about Yu's family, Lu Xiu will hear gossip about Yuxi from his wife.
At the beginning, Yu Xi didn't care about the gossip, but when she heard Lu Xiu say that many generals took Jiangnan women as concubines, Yu Xi's complexion changed slightly.
Yu Xi asked: "Have you heard of which generals took concubines?" If these generals took two beauties as concubines after the battle, Yu Xi would not care about it. But the problem is that the battle is not over yet! If you don't raise your vigilance in this matter, it may become a disaster.
Seeing that Yuxi's expression was wrong, Lu Xiu thought about it seriously and said: "Gao Song, Yuan Fuliang..." He said the names of six people at once.
After Yuxi finished listening, she let out a long breath: "You should pay more attention to this matter." She had to remind Yun Qing about this matter, so don't let these generals fall into the gentle village.
Lu Xiu nodded quickly: "I will pay attention."
After finishing the gossip, Yuxi asked: "What does Doctor He say about sister-in-law's illness?" She was busy just now, and Yuxi didn't bother to ask about it.
Lu Xiu said: "Doctor He said that sister-in-law's matter is deeply entangled in her heart. If you don't relax, it won't be long." After a pause, Lu Xiu said: "If this continues, we may not be able to pass this year."
Yuxi said: "The Han family has done their best to her, and she can't blame anyone for not thinking about it."
Lu Xiu didn't know what happened back then, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this: "The Eldest Master said in the letter that if the elder sister-in-law dared to go to the Feng family to retire, she would divorce him." Even if Mrs. Ye was wrong about this matter, But one day, the husband and wife, Bai Rien, said they wanted to divorce their wife just because they did not do it right. Lu Xiu felt that Han Jianming was too ruthless.
Who is Yuxi, how can she not hear the dissatisfaction in Lu Xiu's words. Yuxi said: "You may not know that my sister-in-law knew that she was cold and difficult to conceive before she got married, but the Ye family and her did not tell the Han family about this, and then the elder brother married Aunt Jia after knowing about it. "
Lu Xiu opened her mouth and said, "Didn't you say that you couldn't regenerate because you hurt your body when you gave birth to Qi Qi?" Not to mention Lu Xiu, even Han Jianye didn't know about it.
Yuxi shook her head and said: "No. In addition, my sister-in-law did a few things, which made my elder brother feel cold towards her." If you want Yuxi to say, Aunt Jia is better than Ye Shi.
Lu Xiu really didn't know these things.
Yuxi said: "The second sister-in-law will have to take care of the family affairs for a few more years. But when Brother Chang gets married, the second sister-in-law will be able to take off the burden." She also knew that Lu Xiu was not a person with authority, so Yuxi Xi would say such a thing.
Lu Xiu hurriedly said: "Compared to the princess, I am not tired."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Master Lu Er and Mrs. Lu Er are at Lin Fengyuan's Zhuangzi. If the second sister-in-law wants to write to them, I can let someone take them."
Lu Xiu's eyes lit up, but she quickly shook her head: "Forget it, I don't want it anymore, if someone finds out, it will implicate my parents." She is now the wife of the rebel, and contacting her parents will only harm them.
After saying this, Lu Xiu couldn't help asking: "Princess, I don't know how my elder brother is doing?" The second elder brother is fine in Xihai, but the elder brother has no news at all.
Yuxi was silent for a while and said: "The Donghu people attacked Tongcheng, and your eldest brother led the troops to fight and was seriously injured, but don't worry, he is out of danger now." .
Lu Xiu burst into tears. Ever since she knew that Lu's house had been ransacked, she had been concerned about her family day and night.
Yu Xi comforted: "Don't be sad, your elder brother has made such a great contribution this time, Yan Wushuang will definitely reward him. At that time, your parents and nephews will no longer have to stay in the countryside Zhuangzi is on."
Lu Xiu wiped her tears and said: "Thank you, Princess, for telling me these things." She couldn't find out these things herself.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Second sister-in-law doesn't need to be so polite. In fact, if you just bring a letter, as long as you are careful, you won't be discovered."
Lu Xiu was a little moved: "Is it possible?"
Yuxi nodded and said: "It's just one time and you won't be discovered." Too many times, it is easy to be discovered by those who are interested.
In the end, Lu Xiu decided to write a letter to Master Lu Er, telling Master Lu Er that she was fine in Pickaxe City, so that they should not worry about her.
When eating at night, the smile on Zao Zao's face was as bright as a blooming flower. Not only Zao Zao, Brother Hao and the others were also very happy. After winning the battle, the atmosphere was different.
Seeing that Zao Zao had eaten three bowls of rice and had to add more, Yu Xi said: "Eat so much, be careful of food accumulation." It is a good thing that children can eat, but if they eat too much, they have to worry.
Zao Zao said with a smile: "After dinner, I will go for a walk with my mother, and I will digest it after walking around a few more times."
Upon seeing this, Brother Yu said: "Mom, you haven't had a good rest for a long time. Take a good rest today, and talk to us by the way." The latter sentence is the key.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Okay, let's have a good talk with you today." She is too busy recently, so she inevitably neglects a few children. Fortunately, the children are sensible and did not complain.
The next morning, Yuxi received a letter from Han Jianming. In the letter, Han Jianming told Yuxi that it was his idea that Liu Yongnan sent troops to support Jiangnan. After Yuxi read the letter, she asked Xu Wu: "What is the crime of sending troops without an order?"
Xu Wu was a little surprised, how could he ask this question politely, but he still answered Yu Xi's words: "Capital crime."
Yuxi muttered after listening: "It really will give me a problem."
Xu Wu asked: "Princess, what's the matter?"
Yuxi told what Han Jianming had done: "I thought it was the prince who sent 100,000 troops from Shanxi, but I didn't expect my elder brother and Liu Yongnan to make good decisions."
Xu Wu said: "Although it is inappropriate to send troops without orders, the prince should understand the special circumstances." If it weren't for the 100,000 soldiers, Wu Xing might not have broken through so quickly.
Yuxi shook her head and said: "Brother's starting point is good, but the influence is very bad." If other generals follow suit at that time, wouldn't it be a trick.
After listening to Yu Xi's analysis, Xu Wu thought for a while and said, "If the princess is really worried, you can make up a transfer order." Yu Xi also has the right to transfer troops, but she has never used this authority.
Yu Xi pondered for a while and said: "Let's see what the prince means in advance." Regarding matters in the military, it's better to ask Yun Qing what he means, so as not to be self-defeating. Although this is more time-consuming, it can save trouble, and the couple will not easily have conflicts.
Xu Wu nodded.
Yuxi remembered what Lu Xiu said to her: "I heard that many soldiers in the front have taken concubines in the south of the Yangtze River. You should check this matter carefully?"
Xu Wu knew about this, but this man's taking a concubine is not a big deal in his opinion: "Princess, taking a concubine is a private matter, why investigate this?"
Yuxi said: "Beauty and money are the things that can corrupt people the most. If these generals are not vigilant, they may fall on them in the future." Yuxi is not alarmist, Jiangnan Fuyu can be corrupt The atmosphere is also very strong. Before she was in the capital, she had heard that even if she was in the south of the Yangtze River, she would not worry about running out of money. If these people can't resist the temptation of beauty and money and do something that violates the law and discipline, she will not show mercy.
Hearing this, his heart trembled, and he said: "Princess, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
That afternoon, news also came from Hongzhou. One of Lian Hetai's lieutenants rebelled, detained Lian Hetai and another lieutenant, opened the city gate and surrendered.
Xu Wu smiled: "Princess, we took Hongcheng down without a single soldier." This battle was really happy.
Yuxi was very calm, and said: "There were more than 6,000 casualties in the previous attack on Hongcheng, so there is nothing to be happy about." Compared with the casualties of Wu Xing and Changshui, the casualties in Hongcheng are already very small. However, in Yu Xi's eyes, even the smallest casualties cannot be ignored. Because she died once, Yuxi cherishes life very much.
When Xu Wu heard this, he immediately withdrew the smile on his face: "My concubine is right, there is nothing to be happy about." (To be continued)
