Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly waved his hands and said: "That's not what I meant. I'm asking, how can you be sure that Zou Zheng's speculation is correct?" He shook his head in disbelief and said: "The emperor will never have such a disease. I think the emperor is very good.
"
Ruan Qingwen speculated: "The emperor's health has always been poor. Over the years, he has only had one child, Xuanyuan Chenghua, and it was widely rumored that the reason why he was not established as a prince by the late emperor was because his heirs were not prosperous, which caused the late emperor to
He was worried that the world would be cut off after being passed on to him, so he was determined to
Then he decided to pass on the crown prince to the third prince. When he was the prince, he often asked doctors for medicine to give birth to one or two more children, but it was a pity that God did not give it. I heard such rumors when I was around the prince.
, saying that the current emperor is a man of ten, and the prince often laughs at him for this reason."
Zhang Xiaowu asked curiously: "What do you mean by ten men?"
Ruan Qingwen stretched out his ten fingers and counted them carefully: "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, okay - done!"
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized what he was doing. He burst out laughing, clapped his thighs and said, "It's really amazing! It's really fucking amazing!"
Ruan Qingwen added: "When the prince was young, he once laughed at Xuanyuan's filial piety in front of all the princes. Later, on the day of his wedding, the prince was poisoned and left no children."
Zhang Xiaowu's voice suddenly stopped and he exclaimed: "You mean, it was Emperor Dade who harmed Xuanyuan Zixun?"
Ruan Qingwen said: "I don't know, maybe this is a mystery that will never be revealed."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "In this way, the emperor has been a ruthless person since he was a child but pretended to be a virtuous and saintly person. His scheming is actually so deep."
"The more scheming you are, the worse your health will be. The more you think, the sooner you will die." Ruan Qingwen sneered, "So you see, the emperor has always been in poor health. During the battle on the Star Reaching Platform, the emperor almost died again, and he woke up.
Then he became a living dead and did not wake up until a year later. I guess that after this ordeal, his originally thin body could no longer lift."
Zhang Xiaowu thought of one person, Emperor Gaozong Zhaogou of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was so frightened that he peeed and hid under the bed because he was chased by the Jin soldiers. Eventually, he became barren and lost his fertility for the rest of his life. In the battle of Star Reaching Platform, Emperor Dade, who was already weak, was even more frightened.
Being hunted would most likely cause him to lose his fertility.
Thinking of this? Zhang Xiaowu couldn't help but sympathized with Emperor Dade? But thinking that if Emperor Dade didn't lift him, he would have no heirs? He smiled bitterly? He didn't know who should sympathize with whom. At least there was a Xuanyuan Chenghua before Emperor Dade didn't lift him?
And now he only has one goddaughter, An An.
When he thought of An An, Zhang Xiaowu said goodbye to Ruan Qingwen and went to the backyard to play with An An. An An was not easy to talk to. Because of her race, she was very petite, but her big eyes were as bright as water.
She looks cute and lovable. Maybe because she is Zhang Xiaowu’s daughter? The little princess of the Qinglong Army, everyone loves her and dotes on her. She is not afraid of the many scary-looking uncles and uncles who will be held in their arms or lifted high.
When I'm high, I can't stop laughing.
Just when everyone was laughing and chatting around An'an, it was already the Spring Festival of the sixth year of Dade. Over the years, the land of the Central Plains has been recuperating and recuperating, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. In addition to the continuous rebellion of some local people due to the forced promotion of banknotes, generally speaking, the wind
The weather was smooth. Even when Zhang Xiaowu was guarding the north, the climate and rain in the north were particularly abundant, and the farmers were growing very well. In addition, the problems of land annexation and overpopulation were solved? The settled Shenghan Empire ushered in the renaissance.
state.
During this year, many soldiers of the Qinglong Army got married and had children. Even Shen Lindong’s wife gave birth to a pair of twins for him. He named the two sons Shen Gonghu and Shen Gongbao. Zhang Xiaowu was shocked after hearing this.
Asked if he knew a novel called "The Romance of the Gods", Shen Lindong shook his head
He said he had never heard of it. After some inquiries, Zhang Xiaowu found out that the Holy Han did not have a story about the gods, so he felt relieved. Then he asked him why he named his two sons Hubao. Shen Lindong explained that he already had three sons, named Shen Gonglong.
, Shen Gongqi, Shen Gonglin, so these two sons are called Shen Gonghu and Shen Gongbao.
Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile: "If you have a sixth son, will you be called Shen Gonglang?"
"Yes!" Shen Lindong laughed. Speaking of which, among all the generals, Shen Lindong had the most prosperous heirs. Having five sons in the family really made many people envious.
Just after the Spring Festival, bad news suddenly came from Longdu. Emperor Dade fell ill, and the government was temporarily left to the right prime minister Gu Yong. Suddenly the world was shocked. Wang Jingzhi personally came to Yanjing Mansion in Youzhou to
He cried to Zhang Xiaowu and said: "Your Majesty's old illness has relapsed. He can't speak, can't move his hands, and can't walk his legs."
"Oh." Zhang Xiaowu said, "Can I ask the imperial doctor to treat me?"
Wang Jingzhi said: "The imperial doctor can't do anything. He said he doesn't know how long your majesty can live."
Zhang Xiaowu felt sad and said: "What can I do? I am willing to find a good doctor in the world to treat your majesty."
Wang Jingzhi shook his head and said: "I've found everything I can, I'm just afraid - alas!"
Zhang Xiaowu asked: "Shuai Yu is here, I'm afraid he's not just sending a message to me, right?"
Wang Jingzhi said: "Your Majesty asked me to secretly go to Yanjing City to entrust the commander in chief, and hoped that the commander could return to Longdu to check and balance Gu Yong. He said that to become an emperor, you don't need a prime minister who is the only one in the family, but a prime minister.
Walk on two feet. Although Gu Yong is the most talented person in the world, you are indeed the best general in the world. Only when you both exist in the court can the prince grow up smoothly."
Zhang Xiaowu laughed loudly and said: "Your Majesty finally understands."
Wang Jingzhi smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty has understood it a long time ago. It's just that your Majesty is thin-skinned. Go back to Longdu as early as possible, but don't bring too many soldiers and horses, so as not to arouse the resentment of the people of Longdu. The people of Longdu have experienced many wars and fires, and now they are finally
I don't like large armies. Over the years, Prime Minister Gu has never deployed a single soldier in the city, and the people have no fight."
"Easy to say, easy to say." Zhang Xiaowu said, "I will go to Longdu."
"In this case, I will wait for the commander-in-chief in Longdu."
"please."
"please."
As soon as Wang Jing left, Zhang Xiaowu called everyone together and said: "The time has come for me to return to the court and take over the power again." The generals cheered loudly, and Zhang Xiaowu said again: "It's just that now that Gu Yong is in power, he will definitely not wait for benefits from me.
"
Hu Lidao: "Isn't Gu Yong your father-in-law? Why, you two can't cooperate?"
Zhang Xiaowu said: "He is from the Gu family, and I am ours. There is no family affection in front of the parties. If there is a fight between the parties, let alone my father-in-law, even my biological father, I can only kill him." Zhu Zhu
The generals then prepared, but as Zhang Xiaowu's base camp, the northern states could not be abandoned. Each general guarded one state, and he only led two regiments back to Longdu City.
