Royal Road

Chapter 377 River Mountain (2)

Only a hosta was used to pull up the black hair, Zhang Wan put on a fur robe, and led several court ladies to the Shigandian. It was cold in winter, and walking down the corridor was still a bit cold. When I arrived at the Shigandian, the heat of the wall of fire and the earth dragon dispelled the cold. Zhang Wan solved Qiubao and only walked into the hall slowly after she was informed.

Fragrant dew is burning in the hall, elegant and soft. The emperor closed his eyes slightly and leaned on the couch. Seeing Zhang Wan enter the hall, she turned her head and said: “Awan is here? They said that you should be recuperating in the East Palace. It’s not right to be here all day long because of illness.”

Zhang Wan gave birth to her baby three months ago, and it was time to rest. Besides, you have to bring children. It is not good if you are infected.

The emperor has said it many times, but how could Zhang Wan forget her duty. After paying the salute, she respectfully said: “Daughter-in-law is in good health, and Erlang was also taken by the nanny for the past two days, so it’s okay. How is the father today?”

“I am much better and can already stay in.” Liang Feng said.

His voice is still a little hoarse, but it is indeed much better than the previous two days. Over the years, I have been ill several times one after another, none of which is as dangerous as this time. Only by catching a cold, the fever will not go away. After the hospital has been busy for ten days, it suppressed the condition.

Hearing what the Son of Heaven said, Zhang Wan showed a joyful expression on her face: “Father Emperor Dragon is healthy and healthy, and I will be able to feel at ease. But I still don’t panic about walking around, and take more time to raise it, except for the root cause of the disease.”

Liang Feng smiled and asked the princess to take a seat, and then asked: “How are Xian’er these days?”

The princess was born as a boy, named Liang Xian. But not long after the child was born, Liang Feng fell ill, and he had never seen this emperor’s grandson.

“Father, don’t worry, Erlang can eat and sleep now, and he has gained a lot of weight. Turn around and show him to his father.” Zhang Wan smiled.

“Let’s talk about it when I get better.” Liang Feng sighed lightly.

He is nothing more than an adult, if the disease is passed on to a child, that would be bad.

Seeing the worried look on the emperor’s face, Zhang Wan quickly said: “These days Dalang also missed his father and copied the “Book of Filial Piety”. Ask his daughter-in-law to present it to his father.”

With that, she asked the palace man to present a few pages. Liang Feng flipped through it in his hand, and laughed: “This character is stronger than Rong’er back then. Awan still teaches well. In the future, Zhi’er will be able to go to school and let her study and calligraphy.”

“Daughter-in-law knows.” Zhang Wan responded with a smile.

At this time, the waiter brought me the decoction. Zhang Wan took it personally and sent it to the couch: “Father, it’s time to take the medicine.”

The medicine is only in a small bowl, neither hot nor cold, just right in the mouth. Liang Feng took it and drank it. Someone next to him immediately presented candied fruit to let him clear his mouth.

I chose a candied date and ate it in my mouth to suppress the bitterness. Liang Feng said again: “Wang Liangdi and Zheng Ruren are afraid that it will be around the corner. Just arrange for the midwife to deliver the baby, so you don’t have to work too hard.”

Over the years, the prince has accepted another good wife and two ru people. Before Zhang Wan gave birth, the two concubines were also found pregnant. A few months passed and it was almost time. As the lord of the East Palace, Zhang Wan naturally has to take care of the two of them, fulfilling their duties as a wife. However, when it came to Liang Feng’s mouth, it became unnecessary to work. This obviously also implies partiality.

Zhang Wanrou said, “My daughter-in-law will make arrangements.”

Liang Feng glanced at her and sighed slightly: “I am wronged you in the end. I will also let Rong’er take care of your mother and son.”

These words made Zhang Wan’s heart warm. This is also the most different place between the emperor and others. Men in the world treat their wives and concubines in the courtyard uncommonly. Only the emperor would miss the grievances of her wife. How affectionate is it to be able to spoil one person for more than ten years, even if he is stigmatized?

However, such a person is hard to come by. Liang Rong is already a pretty good husband-in-law.

Zhang Wan whispered: “The prince treats his daughter-in-law very well, so how can I be wronged? My father is too worried.”

This is her truth. As early as after the prince accepted the concubine, the Imperial Hospital submitted a document. It is said that a few days after the menstruation, the woman is not suitable to conceive. This is very different from what others know. The East Palace also has a history. Isn’t it easy to record the menstrual affairs of a few women? If the prince wants to make the side concubine pregnant, I am afraid that he will be pregnant long ago.

However, until she was pregnant again, in the three or four years, there was no one in the East Palace. The prince took great care of her.

Seeing Zhang Wan’s face reddened, defending Rong’er. Liang Feng smiled and lay back on the couch.

Because the emperor’s spirit is better today, Zhang Wan is not busy with tea and water. Instead, he sat aside, chatting and playing chess with him. Stroked another elegant piano tune.

After a short while, the prince turned back from the Chuggong Hall.

“Is your father better?” Liang Rong asked as soon as he entered the hall.

“With Awan, I am much better.” Liang Feng placed the credit on Zhang Wan.

Liang Rong gave his wife a grateful look, and then reported to his father about the political affairs of the day: “Bazhou has gone smoothly. The three counties of Hanzhong, Badong and Brazil have been captured. In a short time, Shuzhou will be encircled. Jingzhou will lose one in Jiangling field.”

The emperor stayed in bed, and the early dynasty was over for the past few days, and the prince was replaced by the prince in the East Hall to supervise the country. According to common sense, this move may cause turmoil in the court. However, the founding officials are all there, and the prince has been watching politics for several years, but he settled the situation steadily and without delaying the frontline war.

In the spring of this year, the Southern Imperial Court changed again. Wang Dun forcefully dismissed the talented Prince Sima Shao, and replaced him with the youngest son of Sima Rui. No one from the ruling or the opposition dared to speak. However, not long after, another earthquake occurred in Danyang, Wujun, and Jinling. This is already the third earthquake since Wang Dun’s tomb came up.

Coupled with two years of severe drought, five locust plagues, and one rain hail, the Eastern Jin Dynasty was no longer what it looked like. The grains are expensive, the hungry people are everywhere, and the chaos cannot be dealt with. Therefore, the prince Sima Shao urged his father and the emperor to raise his troops to fight against the evil. How is Wang Dun willing to be slaughtered? Immediately sent troops from Wuchang and attacked Jianye again.

Looking at Jiangdong, he was in chaos again. Zhao Guo also lined up troops and launched a strategy against Bazhou and Jingzhou. Bazhou is the original Liangzhou. In order to avoid the emperor’s surname, it was changed to the place name of the pre-Qin period. Yizhou was also changed to Shuzhou. Huan Yi led troops to conquer the land of Bashu. The aim is to calm the whole territory and encircle Li Te, the Dieren who occupies Chengdu. In Jingzhou, Linghu Kuang led the troops, working with the navy forces, and striving to occupy the counties and counties bordering Bazhou.

Hussar General Yiyan sits in Xiangyang and leads the overall situation.

Nowadays, Bazhou’s momentum is like a broken bamboo, and the obstacles on Jingzhou’s side seem to be a bit obstructive.

Liang Feng frowned: “Who did you lose to?”

“Jingzhou Governor Tao Kan.” Liang Rong replied, “but the damage is not much. If we increase our troops, we will be able to conquer it!”

“Tao Kan…” Liang Feng thought for a moment, then shook his head, “Fine. Withdraw troops from Jiangling and step up the offensive in Jianping County.”

There is Yunmengze near Jiangling. Even if it is defeated, it is not easy to cross several large lakes and approach Wuchang County. In terms of strategic arrangements, they had no intention of taking down Wuchang. If the pressure on Wang Dun is too tight, it will cause the Eastern Jin Dynasty to put aside infighting and unanimously confront the enemy. With a small loss now, it can be used to set up the game.

Liang Rong’s reaction was extremely quick: “Father, does he want Tao Kan and Wang Dun to fight inwardly?”

“Tao Kan is one of the top capable ministers in the Jin country. How can Wang Dun rest assured about it?” Liang Feng was satisfied with his son’s cleverness. “Everyone loses, only he wins. If he is willing to repay his grace, Wang Dun How will it be dealt with?”

Tao Kan came from a poor family, but he was excellent in both internal affairs and military leadership. It is also one of the existing famous ministers in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The more capable, the harder it will be to gain a foothold in the civil strife. Whether to seek refuge in Wang Dun or loyal to the emperor to serve the country is really a difficult choice. Nowadays, there are natural and man-made disasters in Jiangdong, and the people are not living, and the mainstays are abolished one by one. I don’t know how the Shanxi National Assembly has become.

Liang Rong sighed softly: “If it is such a character, it would be nice to be used by the emperor.”

“When Jiangdong is defeated, I will have talents.” Liang Feng coughed and asked about other matters.

Sitting on the brocade couch beside her, Zhang Wan looked at the father and son in front of her with bright eyes. The emperor only started to grow his beard in the past two years. The prince nodded with a short beard, calm and resolute, and his appearance was only slightly inferior to his father. When he is in Lent, he will surely be like his Majesty…

This is my husband-in-law. With her chest swelling, Zhang Wan stretched out her hand and slightly pressed her heart. He whispered to the maid to give some soup to relieve the fatigue of the two.

“Maohong! Maohong… If Wang Dun wants this throne, he can tell me. Why harm the people of the world?” In the Jianye Palace, Sima Rui was also lying on the bed, his face turned blue.

Director Wang lowered his eyes and did not answer this question. Having suppressed Wang Dun for three years, he was no longer able to persuade this powerful cousin.

Seeing that Director Wang didn’t answer, Sima Rui cried: “When you and I were in Langya, how close you were. It is all because of Maohong that I can rise to the top. It’s a pity that God doesn’t care! Shaoer, I have been demoted. I went to Jiaozhou, Xi’er is only four years old, and his mother is also from your Langya Wang family. This child can only be entrusted to you. Maohong, for the sake of your friendship with me, please take care of me… .”

So he cried, Sima Rui coughed heartbreakingly. Seeing his declining face, Director Wang sighed and knelt on the ground: “The minister is willing to assist the prince.”

“Good! Good! Good!” Three “good” sounded out one after another, and Sima Rui grabbed Director Wang’s hand hard, tears all over his face.

Five days later, Sima Rui died of illness. Prince Sima Xi ascended the throne, and Wang Dao received his bequest to assist in the administration.

When he got the news, Wang Dun was furious. However, Zhao Guo had already sent his troops south, even if he did not dare to usurp the throne immediately. Knowing that Tao Kan unexpectedly defeated Zhao Jun in Jiangling, it was even more uneasy. After thinking about it, he removed Tao Kan’s position as the governor of Jingzhou and transferred to Guangzhou. Ming Cong’s younger brother Wang Yan is in charge of military affairs in Jingzhou. Then moved to the town to build Ye, monitoring the court.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Guo did not continue to go south, but turned around and took down several counties in eastern Jingzhou, and died. After several months of fear, Wang Dun finally breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his gaze to his cousin Wang Dao again.

The author has something to say: Sima Rui originally had a son named Sima Yu. He died early in this era, and his youngest son, Sima Yu, was never born. I won’t collide with Liang Yu.

Tao Kan is indeed a good general, but the most famous is still genetic. He has a great-grandson named Tao Yuanming.
