He is the "Emperor", the favored son of God, is he not as good as a mere warrior like him
He wanted to jump up and curse at the sky and the earth, but he suppressed the impulse and maintained his imperial dignity. His desire to have a blood heir was stronger than ever.
Eunuch Kang and others hid aside and did not dare to express their anger. After hearing Zhao Deji's order, they had to go out and kneel down: "Officials, please calm down. This slave Wang Jixian is not good at medical skills and deserves death..."
Zhao Deji had calmed down a bit at this time and felt that he could not lose his composure too much. He said slowly: "Yue Pengju and his wife have devoted themselves to serving the country. I will naturally be happy if he can have a son, but..."
He gave instructions in a low voice, and Eunuch Kang accepted the order obediently, but complained endlessly. When the emperor saw other people giving birth to sons, he wanted to have a son himself. He thought that Yue Pengju and his wife must have obtained some secret recipe or found a very clever doctor. However, he wanted to Where can I find this kind of secret recipe or miracle cure
Of course he did not dare to cry out about his difficulties, so he had to accept the order and resign.
As soon as Eunuch Kang left, Zhao Deji felt inexplicably happy again and said to himself: "There are so many miraculous doctors in the world. It must be Wang Jixian, a quack doctor, who cannot cure my hidden disease. If it were another miraculous doctor, why worry about not being cured? Hua Rong If it can be cured, I can naturally cure it too!”
When Eunuch Kang left the palace, he looked sad. He thought to himself, does Hua Rong really have some secret recipe for giving birth to a son? But there are differences between men and women. If it applies to her, does it also apply to officials
The two young eunuchs who accompanied him on the journey asked him: "Father-in-law, are we going to Xiangyang soon?"
He smiled sinisterly: "I'll think of a solution later."
When the King of Qin received the news from Eunuch Kang, it was he who sent his subordinates to meet Eunuch Kang's large boxes of property at the seaport. Eunuch Kang followed Zhao Deji and fled many times. Knowing that the situation was precarious, he did not buy the land, but moved the land. The looted property was exchanged for gold, silver, jewelry, other expensive calligraphy, painting, porcelain, silk and velvet, and was packed into more than ten large boxes.
King Qin got his secret letter and learned that Hua Rong was pregnant. At this time, it was the end of the year, and the setting sun on the sea was blood red. He stood on the high deck, looked up at the setting sun in the west, and he didn't know what he felt in his heart, as if he was sad. , but also faintly happy. That dead girl, will she never seek life and death again in this life
However, looking back on the past more than ten years, the past is like smoke, and he and she have completely ended their previous bad relationship.
At this point, I finally gave up.
After a while, he crumpled the secret letter, tore it into pieces, and threw it into the sea. Only then did he understand what Eunuch Kang was asking for help. He couldn't help but shuddered: Zhao Deji lost his son, and Yue Pengju gave birth to a son. What if Zhao Deji couldn't get anything? "Secret Recipe", if he cannot give birth to a son, wouldn't Yue Pengju be doomed? ! Hua Rong's pregnancy was due to her recovery, but Zhao De was basically paralyzed, so how could she get better? No matter what secret recipe you have, it won't work.
He looked far into the distance and saw that this vast sea area was calm and calm. A few dozen miles ahead, a super-large warship was being built in the sea area.
This battleship adopted the core technology of Yang Mo's unfinished core battleship. Because the scale was so large that it could not be completed in King Qin's hometown, he boldly recruited skilled craftsmen in the nearby waters to rush it overnight. He could build it in the Dongting area It was not in vain that I stayed there for so long. I brought back a lot of equipment and tools, and the blueprints were ready and I was skilled in the technology. After a few months, the battleship had already begun to take shape.
After Zhao Deji fled at sea, he became frightened every time he mentioned the ocean. He claimed to be "ventilating from the sea" and thanked God for being able to maintain peace on the land south of the Yangtze River. How could he care about managing the sea? In the past two years, the nearby navy has never dared to enter the sea again because of the Jin army, the court has also relaxed, and the food and wages have not continued, so it is unable to patrol. As long as the pirates do not intrude, they will just open their eyes and close their eyes.
King Qin looked at his huge ship, imagining its power when it entered the sea on the day it was completed. He was afraid that he would never find another big ship like this in the world. He was very proud: "Forgive Zhao Deji, this damn eunuch and a soft-footed shrimp. I don’t dare go to the sea to show off my evil deeds!”
Liu Wu, who was checking the supervision in front, strode over: "Your Majesty, the time has come."
King Qin nodded: "Okay, let's set off immediately."
Behind them, eight minions followed. There was a small sailboat parked in the shallow water in front. Everyone got on the boat and sailed dozens of nautical miles. When they arrived at a small island, they saw a tall five-toothed warship.
King Qin waited until he got off the boat before boarding the Five-Tooth Warship.
The sky was dark, and the Five-Tooth warship had anchored and lowered its sails. The huge lantern on the bow was removed, and King Qin and others got into the cabin. Although it was the middle of winter outside, the weather at sea was not cold, and the decoration was very comfortable and luxurious. The large cabin was already filled with fine wine and delicacies.
An old man was sitting on the upper left side, reading an astronomical calendar. King Qin walked in, sat in the middle, and laughed: "Uncle Yang, why are you here in person? The great victory in this battle is all thanks to you. "
Sanshu Yang put down his almanac and raised his head. He was nearly seventy. Due to his decades of rough and turbulent pirate career, he had been practicing martial arts and his body was still strong. He said: "Your Majesty, you don't know. This bandit has occupied the country." Wang Erqi’s island has invaded us many times in the past. Although it was recovered, we are afraid that others will follow suit. I think the king should go back and make some serious rectifications... "
King Qin went out for many days, and some islands along the way heard the news, and they were ready to take action. And for most of the year, he was out supervising shipbuilding when he came back, so some petty thieves thought they had an opportunity, so they took the opportunity to harass. King Qin thought it was just a small boat. The little thief didn't take it seriously, and just asked Uncle Yang to send people to destroy him. There were seven or eight more naval battles of varying sizes.
"Your Majesty, you are now the co-owner of this sea area with a radius of thousands of miles. I respect your divine power. However, if you are absent for a long time, it will not be enough to deter..."
The King of Qin naturally heard that this was a faint reproach to himself for being away for a long time, "I want beauty but not the country." He drank a large bottle of wine, put down the gold bottle, and then said calmly: "Yue Pengju's wife is pregnant."
Uncle Yang was overjoyed: "Good, very good. Yue Pengju is good at fighting. Now that he has a son, he is even more happy." Naturally, he was not only happy that Yue Pengju gave birth to a son, but also that King Qin said "Yue Pengju's wife". Since Hua Rong is pregnant. King Qin must have given up completely this time.
There is no grass anywhere in the world, and he has long been worried that if King Qin continues to waste time like this, the island will be ruined. Fortunately, the prodigal son turned back, his face showed joy, and he took a golden cup and drank a cup.
"Third uncle, I want to patrol the route for a week when the big ship is built. What do you think?"
"How long will the construction period last?"
"It will take another 3-6 months."
"Okay. I'm watching the current and wind direction. When the big ship is built, it can cruise for a week, which can be considered a deterrent."
However, King Qin's purpose was naturally not just to intimidate, but also said: "Your Majesty, I want to take this opportunity to gather the forces of various islands together and have a unified deployment..."
Uncle Yang was stunned. Although the major islands in the past were co-owners of King Qin, they were actually loose alliances with each other. Therefore, during the naval battle with the Jin army, they formed a wait-and-see trend. If you follow what King Qin said With unified deployment, wouldn't it be possible to form a truly powerful maritime army? He was overjoyed when he saw that the King of Qin had clearly thought about it for a long time and was no longer obsessed with women like in the past. He immediately said: "As long as the King is determined to do this, I will naturally support it."
"Okay, as for the relevant matters, I will ask my third uncle to make arrangements. Liu Wu can assist you."
"That's what I meant. After all, time is not forgiving, and I am gradually unable to do what I want. I will immediately start arranging this matter..."
…
That night, King Qin convened important subordinates to discuss the situation all night long. It was not until dawn that everyone went back to their cabins to rest.
It was the darkest period before dawn, but King Qin couldn't sleep, and he didn't want the minions to serve him. He opened the hatch and walked to the deck outside alone. This is the third floor of the ship. Standing here, dawn The wind blew, and there was a bit of chill. He stood quietly, like an iron tower. After a while, the sky in the distance began to turn red. Gradually, a red sun surged out of the sea, and the dark black sea turned into a Half blue and half red, thousands of rays of rays of light shot out of the sky... It was the first time he calmly looked at the angry red sun, only to realize that there is such a kind of beauty in the world!
After standing in silence for a long time, he remembered Eunuch Kang's "help" again, and he spat heavily into the sea: "Zhao Deji, a birdman, can do whatever he wants just because he is the emperor?! I might as well kill Zhao Deji's dog head someday. Cut him off before he becomes so rampant!"
Xiangyang Prefecture.
The Lantern Festival is about to usher in the New Year.
The carriage stopped and Hua Rong put his feet on the ground. He saw that this familiar place, although it was ice and snow, felt like an old place. Several soldiers came up to greet him: "Mr. Yue, the mansion has been packed up."
Yue Pengju nodded and looked around, only to see Zhang Xian and his wife waiting in a crowd, especially the fourth sister Gao. When she saw Hua Rong, her eyes almost dropped in surprise.
Hua Rong greeted her with a smile. Senior Sister Gao had already rushed over to help her, and she was extremely happy: "Mrs. Yue, I have prepared the dishes..."
Yue Pengju safely handed over his wife to his female relatives and immediately summoned his subordinates to hold a military meeting.
But it was said that Fourth Sister Gao and Ma Liu helped Hua Rong back to the mansion to rest. As soon as Hua Rong walked in, she found that everything was clean and tidy inside and out, which was due to Fourth Sister Gao's diligence. She wanted to thank her, but she saw Fourth Sister Gao staring at her intently. Holding her belly, she smiled happily: "God is really wise, Mrs. Yue, congratulations to you..."
"Oh, thank you Senior Sister Gao for cooking for us, thank you for your hard work."
"You're welcome, madam."
The fourth sister in high school is really happy for her. Since Hua Rong was injured, she and Zhang Xian have been worried about the inevitability of the Yue family and experienced the "concubinage" incident. Now that Hua Rong is pregnant, all these troubles will be solved naturally, and Hua Rong has passed by. After running for a long distance, her face showed no sign of fatigue. She was rosy and fair, and she was even more radiant than when she was in Dongting. I thought to myself, everyone said that Mrs. Yue was a poor person, but in fact, her fate was really good. .
The fourth sister in high school was someone who had been there, so she immediately shared her experience in childbirth. Although the military camp was bitterly cold, she still tried her best to prepare some ingredients and prepare soup to nourish Hua Rong.
When Yue Pengju returned home from the meeting, he saw four or five dishes on the table, including fish and meat, which were very rich. The two sat down to eat, and he asked with some worry: "The climate here is cold, are you still used to it?"
"I wear thick clothes, no problem. Pengju, how is the situation?"
Yue Pengju took out a gold-lettered plaque and a handwritten letter from Zhao Deji, with nine characters on it: "You are loyal and brave to the world, and you are committed to the country!"
