There is going to be a war in the front and a busy dog in the back. Since Yun Qing left the capital, the officials in the DPRK have become busy.
Although Han Jianming is the official book of the Criminal Ministry, he is just as busy as he is. Sometimes, I'm too busy to stay home. Qiu wanted to see his son, but no one else.
However, because Yun Qing decided not to send troops for the time being, the officers and soldiers in the DPRK could finally breathe a sigh of relief. On this day, Han Jianming, the rare jujube returned home.
Han Jianming is a filial son, so he will naturally go to accompany the Qiu family when he has time. The mother and son chatted for a while, and it was time for the Qiu family to recite sutras.
Han Jianming didn't delay her mother's chanting of sutras and chanting of the Buddha, and after two warnings to pay attention to the body, he went to the main courtyard.
Brother Ye is three years old and has already enlightened. Now I have to study with my husband every day, but I am too young. I only study one hour in the morning and practice calligraphy by myself in the afternoon. There is no hard requirement. At this time, Ye brother is studying with her husband in the front yard.
After Han Jianming entered the house, he saw Xiang Xiang making clothes in the house. Looking at the style of the clothes, you know that they were made for him.
After entering the house, Han Jianming sat down and smiled, "Doing needlework costs my eyes, just let the embroidered lady do this dress."
Xiang smiled gracefully: "I am idle anyway, and time flies faster when doing things." After giving birth to Brother Ye, she always wanted to have another child. It's a pity that after taking a lot of medicine, I can't get pregnant.
When Han Jianming heard this, he frowned and said: "My mother is getting older and getting older, and her body is getting worse. You usually go there to accompany him on weekdays."
Xiang is also learning to be smart now, and will no longer agree to what she cannot do. She smiled bitterly and said, "Master, I don’t know. I only like Minxiu and Ayue if my mother doesn’t like it. Talk to me." The older the person, the simpler the idea. The Qiu family didn't like the Xiang family. He used to do some face-saving skills, but now he doesn't even do face-saving skills.
When Han Jianming heard this, he said: "Old children, old children, the older they are, the more they need to be coaxed.
You go to talk with her a few times, and the mother's anger will disappear after a long time. "
Xiang's heart was choked, but he didn't dare to show half of it. She knows very well that Qiu is more important in her husband's heart than her being a wife: "Okay, I listen to the master."
Han Jianming actually felt a little embarrassed for the Xiang clan, but Qiu clan was his mother and suffered a lot for their brothers. How could he be willing to embarrass the Qiu clan.
After thinking about it, Han Jianming said, "The end of this month is your birthday. At that time, set up a few tables at home and invite relatives and friends to have a meal." Only when you are taken seriously, will birthday banquets be held.
Xiang originally wanted to shirk, but when he heard something, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately smiled: "Master, isn't this okay? This is about to go to war. If I'm still at home hosting a banquet and banquet, I will definitely let people say If you gossiping, even the empress will be upset."
"It's okay, it's just that everyone gathers together to eat a meal, and the empress doesn't know what to say." It didn't make a big deal, just set up two or three tables to have a meal.
Xiang said with a smile: "Then invite relatives from several families."
On the second day, the Xiang clan began to draw up a list, and not many people invited, all of them were relatives. For example, the in-laws of the Feng family and the Xu family, as well as relatives of the Han family's second room Lu family and the Zhou family, and Liu'er also invited them.
After Han Jianming reviewed this list, it was finalized. Xiang's actions were still very fast, and these invitations were sent out two days later.
Seeing that it was Xiang's birthday banquet, Liu'er had no interest and was not accurate at all. Not only did Yuxi have a bad impression of Xiang, but Zaozao and Liuer didn't like this aunt either. It wasn't because of Yuxi's influence that Yuxi wouldn't say bad things about Xiang in front of the children.
Calling Pomegranate, Liu Er said: "Twenty-nine is the birthday of the eldest aunt, you can prepare a gift and send it to you when it's time!"
Pomegranate nodded and said, "Okay.
"
When Feng Zhixi came back in the evening, Liu Er couldn't help but said, "When is it now, she is still in the mood to host a birthday banquet." Although there was no battle ahead, she was still very worried.
"Don't say that the war hasn't started yet, even if it's started, you can't ask everyone to be like you, right?" Liu Er swore before the Buddha that he would be vegetarian for seven or forty-nine days. Feng Zhixi has followed a vegetarian diet all this time, and his mouth has faded out these days. I can only take advantage of the errands, to fight the teeth outside.
Liu Er said: "I didn't let everyone be like me, but no one is like her. Someone in the family can still be in the mood to host a birthday banquet if she is out of war. You said it's her, can my grandmother dislike her?" Her second uncle and brother Ang are both in Changzhou, and they may be on the battlefield at any time. At this time, Xiang was still in the mood to host a banquet. It was strange that her grandmother was in a good mood.
After hearing this, Feng Zhixi smiled and said, "Why didn't no one remind your elder aunt!" I think about my birthday, and wait until the war is over, and then it will be done! It is indeed very offensive to do it at the top of the storm. This aunt herself is not smart, but the people around her didn't even remind her.
"Whoever has enough food to hold on to take care of her." Just like her, she knew that Xiang's behavior was inappropriate, but she wouldn't care about it.
Feng Zhixi smiled and said: "Don't think too much about it. Don't go if you don't like it, why bother to be angry about this."
Liuer wasn't angry either, just that some of the Xiangs were not pleasing to the eyes: "I don't have to go, but the sister-in-law must go back." As a daughter, Qiqi must go back to drink. I don't know what the uncle smokes, so I have to continue to marry. If you don't marry again, wouldn't it be so much.
With a hum, Feng Zhixi said something to Liu Er: "Big brother replied to me, saying that the child was an accident and was a trick of the woman. The woman induced the contraceptive pill to vomit, and then she became pregnant."
"I promised not to tell my cousin, why would you mention it to me?" If Feng Zhi'ao doesn't raise the outside room secretly, where does the woman have the chance to get pregnant. After all, they are all excuses.
Feng Zhixi also felt that she had done a stupid thing.
Yuxi's news is much more informed than Liu'er. If she knew about this, she would definitely give gifts to Xiang, but this time she not only didn’t think about giving gifts, she scolded Han Jianming: “Second brother and Ang went to fight in Changzhou, but she What do you make mother think about hosting a banquet at home?"
Therefore, the son is not caring about the daughter. Han Jianming is filial, but he will not be as detailed as Yuxi thought.
Han Jianming was taken aback, then turned to blame himself: "I really didn't think so much. Now the invitation has been sent out. If it is cancelled, Zi Xin's face will be difficult to get through."
"You didn't expect it, didn't she expect it too?" Maybe Xiang's didn't expect it, but he didn't even think about Qiu's feelings.
Han Jianming didn't say a word.
"I won't say too much, self-cultivation and family rule the world, you just keep this in mind." If it weren't for the fear of Qiu's feeling uncomfortable, she wouldn't bother to talk about it.
Han Jianming nodded.
At this moment, Shan Liangyi said in a loud voice: "Empress Empress, the emperor has a letter delivered."
Yun Qing didn't like to use eunuchs. Not only did he feel that the eunuchs spoke very sharply, but he also felt that they had a strange smell. Shan Liangyi was in the guard camp. He lost his function after being injured, so he was chosen as a close attendant.
After reading the secret letter, Yuxi looked a little solemn. The fighting situation in Tongcheng was worse than she expected.
Han Jianming asked: "What's the matter? Is war in Changzhou?" Since he was an official in the DPRK, such things can be asked.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "No, it's because the war in Tongcheng is not going well. After fighting for a month, the Yan Dynasty has now suffered more than 200,000 casualties."
Han Jianming immediately knew the seriousness of this matter. If Tongcheng broke through, then there would be no natural danger that could stop the Donghu's iron cavalry. If so, the capital city may also be in danger: "Fortunately, the emperor did not send troops to Xiangzhou." In this way, Yan Wushuang could do his best to defend Tongcheng.
Yuxi smiled and said, "The decision I made with the emperor is our own consideration." Before Yun Qing went to Changzhou and did not send troops, the Hubu Shangshu and the War Department Shangshu have even mentioned this matter to Yuxi. . Of course, they didn't raise any objections either, they just explained their worries and difficulties.
"The emperor and the empress are wise." After saying this, Han Jianming said: "What if Yan Wushuang can't resist the offensive of the Donghu people?"
When Yuxi heard this, he sighed and said: "Tongcheng has suffered such a heavy loss, and I am afraid that Yan Wushuang will transfer all his troops except Xiangzhou to Tongcheng. If the battle situation worsens, I am afraid that it will be the soldiers of Xiangzhou. I want to transfer a part to Tongcheng."
Han Jianming said: "According to the current situation, Donghu's new king won't stop taking Tongcheng?" If this is the case, the court would also be very dangerous.
"Yeah.. Damaged so many soldiers and horses. If Tongcheng had not been defeated and Liaodong had not been captured, he would have brought his troops back to the throne." Tongcheng had damaged more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and Donghu had more than 100,000 casualties. . This time, the Donghu people brought only 400,000 Malays, which lost nearly half of them.
Han Jianming said: "I hope they can withstand it." In this way, they can also reduce the tremendous pressure.
Yuxi said, "If you continue to fight like this, there are not many soldiers and horses left to resist the Donghu people. When we send troops, we will surely drive them back to the grassland." Their Northwest Army is also strong and strong, as long as the Donghu people are strong. Not too much, they can be beaten back.
After speaking, Yuxi said, "The only thing I worry about right now is Yan Wushuang's alliance with Donghu people. That would be very detrimental to us."
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this empress. If Yan Wushuang wants to form an alliance with the Donghu people, he won't go all out to fight them. Moreover, if he does this, he will only betray his relatives and no one will follow him. "
Whether it is rationally or emotionally, Yuxi also feels that Yan Wushuang will not form an alliance with the Donghu people, but he is afraid of everything just in case. However, Ok-hee knew it was useless to worry. Now I only hope that Yan Wushuang can have a bottom line. Otherwise, the future will be great.
