All the officials in the court felt that His Majesty's temperament had changed a bit.
In the past, for all major matters, even if she had an idea in mind, she would ask the important ministers to discuss it before making a decision.
However, she directly ordered the Hanlin Academy to draw up an order for Goryeo's use of troops, and even Tian Yunpo, the grand master in charge of the center, knew it later.
Because the decree involved the deployment of troops, the Minister of the Ministry of War personally went to the palace to ask whether she was threatening the King of Korea or really meant it.
After getting the answer, he walked out of the imperial study with his head down.
"What did His Majesty say?"
"Your Majesty said that it is imperative to use the port of Koryo, and there is no room for negotiation."
In other words, if the King of Korea still refuses to agree, then troops will really be mobilized.
"It's strange, Your Majesty is not a warlike person. The war is still going on, so why start it again..."
The discussion is like this, but it is private, and even the Taishi and Taibao have not raised any objections. What can these ordinary ministers do
What's more, worrying is one thing, and all the ministers knew in their hearts that Yu Fu's decision is the best way at the moment.
This battle seemed to make her mature quickly, acting calmly without losing the arrogance that a king should have, and suppressing the turmoil in the court, so that everything gradually returned to normal.
In the end, the King of Korea still had to agree to make an excuse.
"It's better to let me lead the troops this time."
Gu Jiuge offered to lead the troops to detour to Goryeo. He has been bored with the coastal war for a long time these days, and finally found an opportunity to send troops, so naturally he refused to let it go.
None of the military generals who are idle in Beijing these days study naval warfare day and night, lest they will have no achievements when they are needed. Even the generals like Gu Shubai and Ouyang Qi did not dare to slack off at all, and the generals below naturally followed their lead.
Since Gu Jiuge took the initiative to ask to lead the army, Yu Fu was not worried that he would not be able to take up this responsibility, but only worried...
"Although Goryeo is a subsidiary of Beili, it is a foreign country after all. It is even more dangerous to detour and surprise the Sangyi fleet. It is impossible to sink their main giant ship with our ships. It is hard to say that this battle is to hit a stone with an egg."
Yufu knew that he understood the situation of the battle, so he couldn't help repeating these words. Gu Jiuge smiled and said, "Understood. Although eggs can't hit rocks, they can act as some resistance and provide time for the rear to build ships. It's victory."
He thought clearly, Yu Fu looked at Gu Shubai and asked Gu Shubai to talk to him.
Gu Shubai said: "I don't know how much blood of soldiers will be used to complete this resistance. Are you mentally prepared? The son of the Gu family has never lost a battle, but this is a battle that must be lost."
Gu Jiuge said with a smile: "Brother, I'm ready. There is no one in all the generals who can win all his life, and there is no one in the Gu family who can't afford to lose!"
Having said all of this, Yu Fu has no reason to persuade her anymore.
She smiled, "Yes, the Gu family has no one who can't afford to lose, and the imperial court has no battles that they dare not fight. When it is a last resort, even if the royal conquest comes, I will never let the Sanyi people occupy an inch of my territory in Beili. "
Gu Shubai frowned and looked at her, Yu Jia's words made him feel ominous.
Fortunately, Yu Fu only said one sentence, and did not continue this topic.
At the beginning of July, Gu Jiuge led his army to detour around Goryeo, and then a fleet of more than 30 large ships formed a huge fleet at sea, and detoured from the rear of the Sangyi fleet.
At that time, it was also the hottest time at sea.
The summer in the capital is also much hotter than in previous years. I don't know if it is because people are restless or it is really hot.
The cicadas were chirping outside the window, and in the dormitory, Yu Fu propped his forehead to read the ancient books, the more he read, the more he felt a headache.
She glanced outside, "Yao Lan, why are you so noisy? Why are there so many cicadas outside the Hall of Longevity this year?"
Yao Lan walked in from outside the hall, with a suspicious expression on her face, "Not many. His Majesty ordered not to stick all the cicadas, but to keep some to listen to the cicadas and frogs. The little eunuchs are standing under the tree and counting every day!"
"Yeah?"
Yu Fu shook his head, "Then why do I feel so noisy? Forget it, maybe I feel dizzy after sitting for a long time, you can accompany me outside for a walk."
Yao Lan smiled and said: "Eat something before going out for a walk, Your Majesty must be tired after reading for half a day."
"It's very bitter in my mouth, I don't want to eat."
Yu Fu spoke subconsciously, and suddenly caught his pulse with one hand, "It's strange to say, I don't drink medicine these days, and I still feel bitter in my mouth."
When feeling the pulse, other movements are most taboo.
Yao Lan kept her mouth shut, and waited for Yu Fu's hand to come down from her wrist before she said: "Since the beginning of summer, His Majesty has been saying that he has no appetite and doesn't want to eat, is he sick again? It wouldn't be like this in previous years."
After finishing speaking, seeing Yu Fu's blank face, he immediately became nervous, "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Something has happened."
Yu Fu raised his head, "Hurry up and ask the imperial physician, and then invite the eldest brother back, hurry up!"
Yufu herself was born in Immortal Valley, even though she is a Poison Immortal, she is not a problem with common illnesses, not to mention there are two brothers and sisters who dote on her very much, Yuehu and Tianshu, the imperial physicians in the palace have almost nothing to do up.
It was rare that she took the initiative to invite the imperial physician, and the news spread to the imperial hospital, and everyone rushed to see the doctor.
"What are you arguing about? Are you sure you are sure about the illness that His Majesty can't solve by himself?"
The court judge straightened his clothes and looked at the crowd with disdain, and those imperial physicians who were scrambling to be the first stepped back, not daring to make any more trouble.
It is also true, if you can only be helpless if you go, then it is better not to go.
"My lord, what do you think should be done?"
"Unfortunately, only the old man went to see it in person."
He straightened his official hat again, took the two boys and walked out, leaving everyone behind to stare at his back.
When they arrived at the Palace of Eternal Life, seeing Gu Shubai rushing back from outside the palace, the court judge hurriedly stopped and bowed to salute.
When Gu Shubai saw him here, he realized that the news was true. He couldn't help worrying about what kind of illness Yu Fu had, so he even invited people from the Tai Hospital.
"You don't need to be too polite, Mr. Judgment, please come inside."
Gu Shubai walked towards the hall in a hurry, and as soon as he entered, he saw Yufu sitting on the couch, with a small delicate green jade bowl placed in front of him, he didn't know what he was drinking.
Seeing him coming in, she hurriedly turned her head to look over, her eyes were full of expectations and a hint of hesitation.
This made Gu Shubai's heart even more uneasy.
"What happened?"
He walked to Yu Fu's side, and saw that the small bowl in front of her was filled with a strange black-red soup, there was no smell, and he didn't know what kind of strange medicine it was.
Before Yu Fu could speak, he suddenly saw the court judge standing behind Gu Shubai, and said: "Master, please give me a pulse."
The court judge hurried forward, Gu Shubai retreated to the side to give him the seat, I saw him carefully put a very light and thin silk handkerchief on the jade armrest, and put his fingers on it very carefully.
His heart was restless.
What he said in the imperial hospital just now was not only for the sake of showing his face in front of the imperial court, but also the truth.
He has served in the Imperial Hospital all his life, and has been in this hospital for more than ten years. Although his medical skills are well-known, he still has no confidence in front of Yufu.
Immortal Valley's name is not just blown out.
So he was very careful, lest he was not paying attention and missed something.
He consulted for a long time, Yu Fu was a little impatient, and time seemed to freeze, so he slowly withdrew his hand.
"Your Majesty, before you summoned your ministers, did you have a medical examination yourself?"
"Diagnosed."
The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and each saw the answer in the other's eyes, and each heaved a sigh of relief.
It appears that none of them was wrong, the answer was yes.
Gu Shubai was watching the two of them play riddles, and couldn't help asking, "My lord, what disease does Yu Fu have?"
The old court judge raised his head and smiled at him, "Your Majesty is not sick, but happy."
…
The joy that comes at an extraordinary time, I don't know whether it is joy or worry.
After the nursing home was sentenced to leave, Yu Fu and Gu Shubai stared with wide eyes.
Gu Shubai glanced at the bowl in front of her, "What kind of medicine is this? Is it an anti-fetal medicine, or..."
He hesitated to speak, and Yu Fu got a glimpse of some mystery from his hesitation.
He seems to have misunderstood something.
Yu Fu couldn't help but said: "I knew it after I took my own pulse, just want to be more sure. I remember Ji Yu said that women like to eat sour when they are pregnant. I didn't like to drink this sour plum soup before, so I let Yao Give me some blue to try and see if my taste has changed."
It turned out to be sour plum soup.
This is a common soup to relieve the heat in summer, and women in boudoirs especially like it. Gu Shubai doesn't drink it often, so he didn't recognize it.
He couldn't help laughing, "I saw that the soup was black and red, it was very weird, and I thought it was..."
He couldn't continue, and felt more and more ridiculous, how could he think of going there.
Yu Fu raised his eyebrows, "Are you worried that it's a medicine for abortion?"
Gu Shubai said: "I see how anxious you are about the coastal war. At this time, you don't want to have a child to distract you. Besides, you said before that you don't want to have a child too early... By the way, how did this child come here?"
He remembered that Yufu said that after drugging him, they would not have children in a short period of time.
Yu Fu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, "I was sick for a while a few months ago, and I was too distracted by the war in the Sangyi Kingdom, so I forgot to continue to give you medicine. .”
Gu Shubai looked at her worriedly, "Then what are you going to do?"
Yu Fu knew what he was worried about, seeing his expression, he could tell that he really wanted to keep this child, but he was unwilling to force herself, so she only asked her in a gentle tone.
If she had such thoughts in her mind for a moment when she first diagnosed the pulse condition, but now such thoughts have disappeared.
The child belongs to both of them, how can she make a decision for her own selfishness
She thought so in her heart, but she said: "What if I don't want to keep the child?"
"good."
Gu Shubai still smiled, "It's too tiring to have a baby, and you just got sick again, so there's no rush."
When he said that, Yu Fu was stunned, "But don't you really want this child?"
Gu Shubai shook his head, "If you don't want it, I respect your choice. The future will be long, and we still have a lot of time to have many children."
It was obviously against his will, and I don't know how he said it so naturally.
Yu Fu couldn't be more clear, "You are the father of the child, you obviously want him to stay, why didn't you say it? I know you are worried that I won't be able to hold on, but the child is God's will, since he is here at this time, no matter how tired you are Difficult, I will support it. Do you think I am such an irresponsible mother? "
Gu Shubai couldn't help smiling when he heard the words, it seems that Yufu also wanted to keep this child.
He was overjoyed, "When Yuan Zhang was born, you said that you hoped that this child would bring a new era of unification to the mainland of Kyushu. Most of this wish has been fulfilled. The birth of our child will definitely bring a sound of triumph."
The sound of triumph.
This statement is really touching.
Yu Fu stretched out his hand to caress her abdomen, thinking that there was a small life in her body, curled up somewhere in her abdomen, waiting to grow slowly, she found it very interesting.
That is her and Gu Shubai's child.
Although it was unexpected, it was a pleasant surprise.
Yao Lan suddenly ran in from outside the hall in a hurry, "Your Majesty, Senior Sister and Second Senior Brother are here!"
As soon as she finished the announcement, Yuehu and Tianshu entered the palace at high speed, and they couldn't help but grab her wrist as soon as they entered, "Huh? I'm really happy!"
"Really?"
Just as one put down her wrist, the other took it.
Yufu looked at them helplessly, and saw Yuehu pointed at Gu Shubai and scolded him, "Beast! How old is she? You just let her have a baby?"
The corners of Gu Shubai's mouth twitched slightly, and when he was about to explain, Tianshu also pointed at him and said, "That is, if Master finds out, wouldn't he be so angry that he would come from Immortal Valley to beat you?"
Gu Shubai couldn't argue, he was the one who was most wronged from the beginning to the end, he was the one who was drugged by Yu Fu, and he was the one who was forgotten by Yu Fu.
He could only say: "You two, what is Yu Fu's age this year, do you remember?"
The two of them thought about it—oh, it was too late last year.
"That won't work either! It's really unreasonable!"
While scolding Gu Shubai, he pulled Yu Fu to ask him warmly, "Do you feel like you have a bad appetite? Do you want something sour?"
"Did you not sleep well at night? Don't worry, just tell us if you have any questions, and I guarantee that you will be pregnant for ten months without any pain."
Gu Shubai heard the words: "Is it really possible to have no pain at all?"
What worries him the most is all kinds of fatigue caused by pregnancy, and Yufu still has government affairs to deal with, so he is afraid that his body will not be able to bear it.
Yuehu glanced at him proudly, "Of course. Even if there is no way, we can find a way. If we can't even solve the little ailment of Yufu's pregnancy and childbirth, what kind of medical immortals are we?"
Tianshu couldn't help but glanced at her, and used his eyes to signal her not to speak big too early, it would be so embarrassing if it wouldn't end by then.
Yuehu glanced back at him, but it was too late.
There was another sound of footsteps outside the hall.
Yao Lan hurried in, "Your Majesty..."
"Who is here again?"
"They're all here!"
Yaolan didn't know how to report for a while, there were too many people, she couldn't even see them.
Yu Fu looked at Gu Shubai helplessly, Gu Shubai nodded, "Let them all come in, this is a happy event, and we should congratulate them."
First, Gu Hanmo walked in with Gu Huaijiang supported, followed by Yin Jiyi, Gu Wenqing, Gu Xiang and Gu Yi. When the people in the Gu residence heard the news that Yufu was pregnant, they hurried into the palace to see her.
Before Gu Huaijiang had time to ask anything, he suddenly heard movement behind him, and there was a crowd of people outside the hall again.
Yu Fu waited with a smile, but suddenly seeing someone coming in behind them, the corner of his mouth froze in a smile.
When the ministers headed by Tian Yunpo and Zhang Jiuque heard the news, they entered the palace one after another to congratulate. The ministers crowded and stood all over the hall. It was the first time Yufu saw so many people in the Hall of Eternal Life.
This is not the end, there are some news that came too late, such as Princess Chu.
"Get out of the way, let me in!"
The concubine came to visit with a group of royal family wives, and all the officials hurriedly dodged aside to make way for them.
Yu Fu couldn't hold back her smile anymore, and it was too late to order someone to serve tea to give up seats, and Yao Lan couldn't find so many seats for a while, so only Gu Huaijiang and other highly respected people, as well as high-ranking people like Tian Yunpo and Zhang Jiuque, took their seats , the princess simply sat beside the jade couch.
She happily glanced at Yufu's belly, it was still flat and nothing could be seen there.
The princess looked at it but couldn't help laughing, "Your Majesty is happy, it's great! The bloodline of the Ji family has finally been continued, and this is the eldest son in your Majesty's belly. This is a great joy! God bless me, Bei Li, I still worry Is the war going on and the sea going to be uneven?"
All the ministers also congratulated, "This is great joy, it must be a good omen! Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, General!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, General!"
-----Off Topic-----
It suddenly occurred to me that it is good for a woman to be an emperor, every child is a son of the eldest son, there is no need to fight between the sons and daughters, hahaha
