Emperor Xuande was escorted by Guo Boyan and his son to escape the siege, but the 100,000 Song army outside the city of Youzhou had nowhere to escape. Ten miles away to rectify. The five generals reunited again, and at this meeting, they suddenly found that the emperor was gone!

The main general, Handa, immediately sent people to look for the emperor. The five generals also searched in their respective camps, but after half an hour, they found only a blood-stained dragon robe. As for where the emperor went, no one knew! And the dragon robes are all gone, and they are also stained with blood, and everyone will think badly.

But if the emperor really died in the fight just now, and the body was captured by the Liao army, what should Da Zhou do now

"The emperor's death in battle is due to my lack of escort, but the 50,000-strong army must not be without a commander, otherwise there will be chaos. The top priority is that we should set up another virtuous lord, and then the new monarch decides whether to retreat or fight!" pondered.

Handa glanced at him, then looked at the Duke of Wu'an, Jizhou Jiedu Lu Yun, and Superintendent Shi Du Zhishan next to him. He cautiously remained silent.

Jizhou Jiedu envoy Lu Yun frowned and said, "What does General Yao mean?"

Yao Song walked up to the Duke of Wu'an and praised: "The Duke of Duke is both civil and military. He is the eldest son of Gaozu's direct descendant.

The Prince of Wu'an was speechless in shock.

Yao Song and Lu Yun were both veterans who had followed Emperor Gaozu's expeditions from the south to the north. Almost all of the Great Zhou Jiangshan was shot down by Emperor Gaozu, and they only served Emperor Gaozu from the bottom of their hearts. At the beginning, Emperor Xuande's succession to his brother's throne had always been strange. Now that Emperor Xuande died, Yao Song's first thought was to return the throne to the son of Gaozu. Hearing what he said, Lu Yun immediately came over and expressed his support for the Prince of Wu'an.

The Duke of Wu'an, who was suddenly pushed to the cusp of the storm, just thought... He wasn't dreaming, was he? It's just a dragon robe, the uncle may not be dead, even if the uncle dies, according to the rules of the uncle inheriting the father's throne, the next emperor should be the fourth uncle King Qin, and it will never be his turn.

Looking at Han Da and Du Zhishan, the supervisor, who remained silent, the King of Wu'an immediately said, "The emperor's whereabouts are only unknown, and the two generals must not make false statements."

Just as Yao Song was about to persuade him again, someone from Zhuozhou came and learned that Emperor Xuande was living well in Zhuozhou. The Duke of Wu'an breathed a sigh of relief. Yao Song and Lu Yun, who wanted to support him and become emperor, both had chills on their backs. They looked at each other, and the two found an opportunity to communicate with Zhenbei general Han Da and supervisor Shi Du Zhishan, saying that what they said just now was just because they misunderstood that the emperor had died, and they had no intention of not being a minister. I hope they don't report it to the emperor. .

Handa and Du Zhishan just smiled and didn't make any promises.

In the evening of the same day, Emperor Xuande knew about this, and he didn't show anything in front of others. He lay on the bed alone at night and didn't sleep all night. In the next hospital, Guo Boyan also stayed up all night and stayed by his son's side, rubbing his forehead from time to time. I stayed up like this all night, and it was getting brighter in the early morning. Looking at his comatose son, Guo Boyan was about to go to the clean room for a while, and when he was about to get up, he suddenly heard a faint voice.

Guo Boyan's heart was filled with ecstasy, he leaned back in front of his son, tremblingly called out, "Pingzhang..."

Guo Xiao frowned and did not respond. After a while, his lips moved and he made a faint voice: "An An..."

Guo Boyan froze all over, stunned by the bed, feeling complicated. Before drawing the arrow, his only thought was to let his son survive, even if he had to sacrifice his life, Guo Boyan would not hesitate. Now that his son has survived, Guo Boyan can finally be distracted from thinking about other family members, his gentle and virtuous wife, his charming and well-behaved little daughter, and his elderly mother.

Guo Boyan closed his eyes.

He won't let his son ruin the entire palace, and he won't help his son to rob people. If his son really wants to settle An An, he can only promise not to interfere, but before that, he will also let his son make a choice, Either continue to be the descendants of the Guo family, marry a wife and have children, or leave the Guo family in suspended animation, hide their names and ruin their appearance, and go to steal people from King Shou on their own.

On the one hand, three generations of blood relatives, fame and fortune are the identity and appearance, and the other is the stepsister who is married and will have a child. Guo Boyan believes that his son will make a wise choice.

Song Jianing was celebrating her fifteenth birthday before the news of Emperor Xuande's defeat came to Beijing. Fifteen-year-old is the age of a woman's wedding. It is an important day for a girl after marriage and childbirth. Even Zhao Heng, who does not like to socialize, has authorized his little princess to invite relatives and friends to the palace to watch the ceremony.

The first thing Song Jianing thought of was the relatives of the Duke's mansion. His mother, Mrs. Tai and two aunts would definitely invite them. The marriage of three sisters and two was far from worth the trouble. Yun Fang made a post. This is a relative of her parents' family. On King Shou's side, Song Jianing sent invitations to Princess Chu Feng Zheng, Princess Gong Li Mulan, Princess Rui, and Princess Duanhui. It was purely a matter of face, Song Jianing believed that the two of them would not come.

Sure enough, on the 26th day of the fifth month, Princess Rui sent someone to send a congratulatory gift, but no one came. Princess Duanhui in the palace also asked the maid to give gifts, and then Princess Duanhui mainly prayed for the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Three days ago, she decided to burn incense to worship Buddha and fast for seven days...

Song Jianing laughed it off and happily entertained her family.

Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Lin and others were close, and they came early. After half an hour, Feng Zheng, Li Mulan, and Yun Fang arrived one after another. The guests were also divided into high and low. After the wedding ceremony, Mrs. Tai took the initiative to lead her family to the back garden of the palace, leaving Song Jianing to entertain the two concubines and concubines.

Feng Zheng brought Brother Sheng. She got close to Song Jianing and did not lack of time to chat. Guessing that Song Jianing might want to talk to Li Mulan, Feng Zheng took Brother Sheng to the lotus pond in the backyard. Look at the fish.

"How has Sister Mulan been recently?" Song Jianing asked Li Mulan to sit in the second room and asked with concern.

Li Mulan doesn't like to dress up, there is only a white hosta on her head, which is simple and neat, but she likes to wear red clothes, and the bright red dress complements her fair complexion a bit, and it is bright and flamboyant. Listening to Song Jianing's question, Li Mulan smiled and said, "It's okay to say it is good, or it is not good to say it is not good, in short, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, just let it go."

In fact, Li Mulan is very satisfied with her current life. Three nights before the wedding, Prince Gong slept in her room. That kind of thing was only uncomfortable and not interesting at all. Therefore, after the three days passed, Prince Gong went back to the front yard and only asked the two generals to take turns to serve. , Li Mulan felt relieved, and slept very soundly alone at night. If King Gong of the first and fifteenth day of the first year of the first year and fifteenth did not come to her or disturb her sleep, Li Mulan would be more satisfied.

But the maids around her were all frowning and felt wronged for her. Li Mulan felt that outsiders shouldn't think she was doing well, so she used the words "just get by".

Song Jianing really wanted to know how bad Li Mulan's life was, but the two reunited after a long absence, so they couldn't ask too private questions all at once. Song Jianing said, "Why didn't Sister Mulan dress up on the day she got married?" Can't figure this out.

Li Mulan recalled that day, and said indifferently, "I didn't dress up since I was a child, and I smeared those powders on my face. I felt uncomfortable all over. Since it's a big day, I can't make me feel uncomfortable, right?"

Song Jianing: ... It's still maverick enough.

"Don't just talk about me, how are you, is your pregnancy hard?" Li Mulan asked curiously, looking at Song Jianing's bulging belly. Sleeping with Prince Gong, Li Mulan was uncomfortable first, and secondly, she was particularly worried that she would become pregnant. She likes to dance with knives and guns, but she can't imagine how she would practice martial arts with a big belly, so every time after the incident, Li Mulan would run to the net. Room, try to get out all the things that Prince Gong left inside, and wash them thoroughly.

Song Jianing touched her stomach, thinking of the pain of morning sickness in the first three months, she nodded: "At first, I couldn't eat anything, and I didn't want to get pregnant anymore, but it's much better now, and I look forward to giving birth soon every day. Brother is very rare."

Just when I mentioned Brother Sheng, Brother Sheng rushed in, holding a green-skinned grasshopper in his hand and giving it to Song Jianing as if he was offering a treasure. for my brother."

The boy who is only three years old already knows how to take care of his younger brother.

Song Jianing took the little grasshopper, pinched his leg and asked Brother Sheng, "How do you know it's your younger brother?"

Brother Sheng laughed: "It's the younger brother!" He wanted a younger brother, and then played with him.

Song Jianing rubbed the top of the boy's head and smiled softly.

Li Mulan looked at Song Jianing's beautiful and gentle profile, and suddenly shivered, feeling that she was not born to be a mother.

After a lively day, Song Jianing saw off the guests, and was a little tired. He lay in bed and slept until dusk.

"Ma'am, this is when you were asleep. Someone claimed to be your old friend. They brought a hairpin over, handed it to the guard and left without leaving a name." After Song Jianing finished dressing, Shuang'er brought one The red sandalwood wooden box walked up to her and opened the box while speaking strangely.

Her old friend

Song Jianing looked at the box suspiciously.

Inside the box, there is a peony flower hairpin lying quietly. The peony flower is carved from a whole piece of red jade. The texture of the petals is slender. The body of the hairpin is made of red gold, which is dazzling. Four pigeon blood rubies. Song Jianing looked at the four rubies that were enough to move any woman, but the blood in her whole body froze all of a sudden, her heart was cold.

She has seen this peony flower hairpin. In her previous life, she was taken to the capital by Guo Xiao. Before Guo Xiao touched her, he gave her this hairpin. Song Jianing didn't want it, but she didn't go back. In the end, the hairpin was received by Mammy Li in a jewelry box, and she often let her wear this hairpin to greet Guo Xiao.

Today, Guo Xiao gave her the hairpin again. When she reached the hairpin, when she had become Princess Shou, it was not given in the name of her brother, but lied as an old friend.

Song Jianing's face was pale, what the hell was Guo Xiao trying to do, didn't he give up yet

Just when Song Jianing lost his mind, there was a sudden sound of "Your Highness" from the courtyard.
