In fact, in addition to worrying about giving birth, Yuan Cixian has a little regret. He still couldn't live with Lu Shiqing this year. He might have been in a hurry to give birth, but he would never be able to stay with her for the New Year.
When the Uighurs broke out, the Great Zhou mobilized troops to support him. In order to avoid taking advantage of the loopholes for the countries that were eyeing each other, the border was all martial law, and the generals guarding the border city could not leave their posts without permission. Therefore, before the war ended, her father and mother could not enter Beijing.
This year is destined to be deserted.
The next morning, before dawn, Lu Shiqing walked out with a slight touch.
But Yuan Cixian was not sleeping soundly. She woke up when he lifted the bedding. She just pretended not to know. One reason was that she was unwilling to say goodbye to him seriously, making this matter apart from life and death, and the other was that she wanted to ask him to leave with peace of mind.
She had roughly asked Lu Shiqing last night that the origin of the Uighur war was understood.
Because the second prince had a deep connection with the Uighurs and the Turks in the early years, Emperor Huining chose Yazhou, which was far from the northwest, as the exile site in order to prevent him from being forced to have another disaster.
The old emperor had a good idea, but he had a lot of secrets. He didn't worry about going from Chang'an to Southeast Yazhou, he would pass through the Huainan boundary where King Ping was located.
In fact, the second prince had never been to Yazhou. As early as when the escort team passed Huainan, the people in the prison car had been transferred without knowing the truth by the King Ping.
After that, King Ping actively arranged for the second prince to join forces with the Turks to prepare for war until today half a year later.
To put it bluntly, the war between the Uighurs and the Turks began with the endless battle for the throne in the Great Zhou Dynasty. After all, Lu Shiqing had been in the mediation for many years. Yuan Cixian believed that he would successfully reach an alliance with the Uighurs, but he was still worried that the Turks would block him from meeting Khan, and that in order to prevent him from meeting Khan, he might kill him secretly. In addition, the mountains and rivers were far away, so he followed the marching and marching all the way and ate all the wind, frost, rain and snow, for fear that the old wound would recur.
After more than a month of worrying about this, the Yuan and Lu families and even the entire Great Zhou Dynasty did not have a good year. Until the northwest, the first good news came, saying that the Great Zhou reinforcements had successfully joined forces with the Uighur Khan Court and successively recaptured the five cities that were originally captured by the Turkic vanguard army.
This is something that is told to the people, but Yuan Cixian knows how difficult it has been this month.
Although she could not get the first-hand military newspaper, she could roughly estimate from the few messages that the Great Zhou marching where Lu Shiqing was located had at least three significant battles before entering the Uighur territory. After entering the Uighurs, she confronted the Turkic soldiers head-on, which was always tyrannical, and was using human flesh to block the enemy.
This good news that looks golden, is actually very heavy.
Lu Shiqing never sent a message to report it back. Perhaps it was because he was really worried and couldn't escape, or perhaps because the war in the Uighurs was in full swing, if the letter was intercepted, it might leak the traces of the Great Zhou army, so he had to choose to hide in order to take into account the overall situation.
Yuan Cixian understood this, but she couldn't help but count the days by counting her fingers every day and asked how many days she would have to give birth to.
Zhuzhi answered her every day, but later she couldn't help it and asked, "Madam, do you really remember how my maid answered you yesterday?"
She said with confidence: "Remember, you said yesterday that there are about fifteen days left."
"Then you..." Isn't it better to lose one day.
Yuan Cixian looked at her: "I just want to hear you tell me."
Picking the branches had to say, "You should be about half a month later."
She said "um" and looked at Bingling outside the window and said to herself: "There will be fourteen days in another time, it will be soon."
Zhuanzhi knew what she said "soon". The lady thought that the husband was a trustworthy person and would do it after making a guarantee. She asked herself over and over again about the day she was about to be successful. In fact, she was just looking forward to his triumphant return.
Just as she was about to express words to comfort Yuan Cixian, she saw Shi Cui hurried in and asked her where she had put the cloak that the lady had worn last New Year's Eve.
She was a little stunned when she heard this, and then quickly said, "Can't find it? I'll go with you to have a look." After that, she looked at Yuan Cixian and asked for instructions, "Madam, I'll go find you a cloak first."
Yuan Cixian nodded and smiled at them each: "Go."
The two nodded and retreated, talking about the cloak all the way. When they left Yuan Cixian's house, they all kept their faces. Picking the branches first asked, "What's wrong?"
The cloak that Yuan Cixian walked through New Year's Eve was not collected by her, but by Shi Cui, so when she heard the strange question just now, she knew that there was something else inside.
Shi Cui was really scorching, looked back at the direction where Yuan Cixian was, and said vigilantly: "Come with me."
She led her to the main hall next door and said, "Brother Cao just received a secret report, saying that the morning before yesterday, the two cavalry teams of the Uighurs and Turks encountered a snowfall during the battle between the Great Peripheral Frontier, and both armies were wiped out. Langjun..." She said nervously when she said this, "Langjun seems to be in that team."
Zhuzhi's face changed. When he saw Cao An in the room, he was anxiously holding a letter, so he asked him directly: "Why is the husband in the Uighurs' team?"
Cao An explained: "Mr. Lang is in a hurry to come back, but our soldiers are anxious because of the war. The Uighur Khan is concerned about his safety. After reaching an alliance with our Great Zhou, he proposed to send troops to escort him back to Chang'an first. Judging from his movements, it is likely this cavalry team."
Zhuozhi breathed and suffocated when he heard this, and made a silent decision and said, "Since you cannot be sure, you must not let your wife know about this. Brother Cao, please find a way to investigate first..."
When she said this, she suddenly heard a rustling sound of clothes wiping outside the inner fan. When she looked back, she saw Yuan Cixian standing there with a white face, and I don’t know what she had heard.
The three of them were stunned. Shi Cui took the lead and said stutteringly: "Madam..."
Yuan Cixian just arrived in front of the door, but just listening to the last sentence was enough for her to understand the truth. She didn't look at them, but just stared at the secret report in Cao An and said coldly: "Give it to me."
Cao An subconsciously covered the secret report behind him. After covering it up, he realized that he was unnecessary. He gritted his teeth and submitted it to him first: "Madam, this news is ambiguous, and the villain thinks it is not trustworthy. Don't worry too much. The villain will go to a trustworthy person to discuss countermeasures."
The credible person he implies is naturally Zheng Zhuo.
Yuan Cixian finished reading the news with a glance, but she was not as panicked as the three of them imagined. She was even more calmer than them and said quickly: "Give me a topographic map of the junction of the Uighurs and the Great Zhou, as well as paper and pen."
Shi Cui hurriedly went to get it for her. Seeing her spreading the cowhide map on the table, after reading it, she quickly circled and drew several places, and said to Cao: "The Turkic Uighur armies confronted each other, and the Great Peripheral Frontier was right in front of her. He could not have been consuming this muddy water. He should have escaped before the snow disaster occurred. But since he failed to send back the news before the bad news arrived in Chang'an to report safety, he must have encountered other troubles. What you should pay attention to is not the snow disaster, but the future return journey, which is a potential danger in the Great Zhou."
Cao An's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded and said, "Mrs. What is said."
Yuan Cixian swept the map again, pointed to the top, and drew a line with her index finger: "Don't go to anyone to discuss it anymore. You should set off now and take people to pick you up along this road. Remember not to reveal your traces."
Seeing Cao An running away with his life, Yuan Cixian grabbed the edge of the table as if she had lost her strength, and her forehead soon burst into thick sweat.
Shi Cui and Zhuozhi were startled and rushed forward and helped her left and right: "Madam, please go back to your room to rest first."
Yuan Cixian grabbed their arms, frowned, and she couldn't help but slid down: "I can't go back, I seem to be giving birth..."
*
The Lu Mansion was immediately in chaos. Shi Cui and Zhuzhi were not well received by Yuan Cixian, but they were as stable as Mount Tai the moment before, but the next moment. After careful consideration, she realized that her face was indeed very pale just now. I was afraid that she had already moved the fetal breath when she heard the mouth outside the inner fan. But afterwards, she kept trying to figure out the countermeasures.
The Lu family had already arranged the Wenpo early a few days ago. It was originally supposed to ask them to move to the mansion tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but they never expected that Yuan Cixian had so many days in advance, so she had to call someone again.
Fortunately, there were several old women in the mansion who had a little experience of childbirth. They got ready early. The two rushing wives who arrived were also quick-witted and arrived soon. As soon as they saw that the hot water and medicine were ready, they entered the bedroom after cleaning their hands.
Xuan was so anxious that he was walking back and forth outside the door. Seeing that Yuan Cixian's cry of pain had not been heard inside, he felt worried and kept asking the maid why she was silent.
It was not until half an hour passed that the decoction for the fetus had finally been filled, and Yuan Cixian entered the right path of giving birth, but the shouting in her mouth was different from that of ordinary women.
"Why...it hurts so much!"
"Lu Shiqing... You are so angry, so angry!"
"Who said I must have caught up with me? When you come back, I will... pull your tongue!"
When Xuan heard this, he shook his whole body and listened to her again: "Tear your skin! Tear your tendons! Hang you up and swing it with a whip! Ah, it hurts..."
Lu Shuangyu, who came to accompany Xuan's family, was also shocked and looked at her with a little embarrassed: "Mom, in order to make her sister-in-law work harder, let's just tell her brother to be wronged."
Xuan nodded deeply, held her hand as support, and shouted inward: "Cixian, you scold, just curse! My mother tells you that the more vigorous the scolding is, the smoother the birth will be!"
