Under the unanimous attention of more than a thousand people in Yuwen Mansion, the baby in Queen Xiao's belly was finally born.
What made Princess Leping gnashed her teeth was that Queen Xiao had a very impressive belly and gave birth to two babies at one time, and they were relatively rare twins.
You know, by now, Yuwen Chenglong has had more than a hundred sons alone, and the number of daughters is roughly the same. The total number of children has nearly exceeded three hundred. But so far, the only twins who have twins are dragon and phoenix.
A couple born!
Although she was envious, jealous, and resentful in her heart, it was just a thought. On the surface, Princess Leping was still very calm and smiling, and she also had a big belly to help take care of Empress Xiao.
mother and son.
Yuwen Chenglong is quite happy to have two more children, but that's all. You know, with Yuwen Chenglong's current sowing efficiency, one or two children are basically born every day in Yuwen Mansion! [
However, due to the special status of these two children, Yuwen and Jackie Chan paid more attention to them.
For example, now, Yuwen Chenglong gathered all his confidants, including Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Yuwen Zhiji, Xu Shiji, Cen Wenwen, etc., into the study room to hold a meeting to discuss issues related to the two children.
"Half a month ago, Princess Wei of Qi gave birth to a posthumous son to the short-lived Prince Qi. Yesterday morning, Empress Xiao also gave birth to a son. If you have any ideas, you might as well share your thoughts."
After hearing Yuwen Chenglong's confusing words with unclear intentions, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and then they all bowed their heads in thought.
After a long while, the young man Xu Shiji still couldn't hold his breath. He took the lead and said tentatively, "Could it be that my lord is hesitating about who should be made emperor?"
"Well! According to Xu Aiqing's wishes, how should this matter be handled?"
"Oh, well, well, that, my subordinates think that Princess Qi is just a princess after all. In terms of status, she is naturally not as orthodox as the Queen."
"Cen Aiqing, what do you think?"
"Returning to my lord, I think Master Xu's words are reasonable!"
Subsequently, Wei Zheng, Yuwen Zhiji, Fang, Du and others also expressed their opinions one after another, and generally agreed with Xu Shiji's words.
These few people spoke a little more straightforwardly, saying that since the two babies are not yet one month old, it doesn't matter who they use as puppets. But Queen Xiao's side, after all, is more clear-cut and more suitable for deceiving those people.
People who don’t know the truth, and so on.
It took less than an hour for everyone to work together to concoct a detailed plan to establish Empress Xiao's son as the puppet emperor.
In this regard, Yuwen Chenglong did not express his position clearly, but changed the subject and began to ask others about military and political matters.
First, Chief Staff Officer Xu Shiji reported on the military situation.
After more than half a month of suppression, the campaign to suppress the family rebellion in the northern states has been completely completed, and normal order has been restored in all states. As for Luoyang, Wu Yunzhao, after capturing Luokou Cang, made another raid and captured the city of Luoyang.
There was only Jinyong City fifteen miles away. They attacked in all directions to clear out the defeated troops of Dazheng.
It turned out that after Wang Shichong's army herded sheep in the previous period, more than 100,000 of them were reduced to rout. Probably because they felt that there was no future for following Wang Shichong, these sergeants did not return to Luoyang in the end, but scattered around Sili.
He became a refugee.
Since there were too many of these broken troops, if they were ignored, they might cause big trouble. Therefore, during this period of time, Wu Yunzhao had been reorganizing the prisoners while doing the trivial work of cleaning up the broken soldiers.
Fortunately, at this time, Yu Chigong's 80,000 troops had also rushed back to Henan. Although many of them were surrendered troops from Youzhou, the mixed formation of the two sides finally diluted the captured troops of Dazheng.
In addition, Qin Qiong from Yique Pass also led more than 20,000 troops to join Wu Yunzhao at the foot of Luoyang City.[
With the converging armies of the three parties, and the captive soldiers captured one after another, a total of more than 200,000 Sui troops have gathered under Luoyang City. As long as they are reorganized, they can launch an attack. Taking Luoyang is just around the corner!
In terms of political and legal matters, the deputy general manager Wei Zheng and the second general manager Cen Wenwen reported to him.
With the graduation of another batch of students from Jiangnan University, the already somewhat stretched military and political talents have once again been enriched. Coupled with the support and cooperation from Liaodong, Ryukyu, Linyi and other places, currently, Yizhou, Yizhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou,
The grassroots officials in Youzhou and other places have generally been deployed, and various political affairs are being carried out in an orderly manner.
It's just that the construction of volunteer schools in various places has not been completed so quickly, and because of the rapid expansion, there are not enough teaching staff.
"The shortage of grassroots officials and teachers can be temporarily transferred from the ungraduated students of Jiangnan University in the name of internship. The internship period is tentatively set for half a year! After half a year, another group of people will be replaced for internship.
. On the side of the government, these students may not be able to do anything, but they can give those old officials a beating, and there shouldn't be any problem?"
"As for the shortage of teachers in volunteer schools in various places, it can also be dealt with in this way, but the method can be more flexible. The scope can be expanded to lower grades, and the time can also be more flexible. It does not have to be half a year. As for the specifics,
As for the operation, you can discuss it with Old Man Xu, Old Man Shen and the others."
Upon hearing this, Wei Zheng, Cen Wenwen and others suddenly became happy and shouted that the lord is wise.
The corner of his mouth was slightly raised and he waved his hand to stop everyone from patting the horses. Yuwen Chenglong then continued, "In this year, our sphere of influence has expanded from the two states in the south of the Yangtze River to both sides of the Yellow River in the north and south of the Yangtze River. The speed of expansion is indeed a bit
It’s almost time.”
"So, the next step, what this general means is that after capturing Luoyang, we will temporarily take a break and rest for a year. On the one hand, we can eliminate the weak and retain the strong of the captured soldiers, and completely digest them; on the other hand, we can eliminate the weak and retain the strong.
On the one hand, it is to thoroughly consolidate the occupied areas. Among them, the most important ones are to settle the refugees, restore production, and establish and improve the political and legal systems and militia systems in various places. All of these require your hard work. I hope you will not let it down.
The general’s expectations.”
"My lord is wise! I will do my best to repay my lord for his kindness!"
It seemed that after the discussion was over, Yuwen Chenglong waved his paw and announced that the meeting was adjourned.
But just as everyone walked to the door, Yuwen Chenglong spoke again, leaving Wei Zheng, Yuwen Zhi and the two behind.
Before the two men could ask, Yuwen Chenglong took the lead and said, "I intend to let His Highness King Qi's posthumous son inherit the Sui Dynasty's foundation. Do you think it's okay?"
"Ah?" The two of them were stunned when they heard this.
After staring blankly at Yuwen Chenglong for a long time, the two found that their lord's expression did not seem to be joking, so they couldn't help but look at each other, and then began to lower their heads and think deeply.
"Could it be that the eldest nephew (lord) has an affair with Princess Qi? With the eldest nephew (lord)'s usual style, well, it is very possible!"
"It's just that the eldest nephew (lord) seems to have no time to commit crimes? You know, for more than a year, the eldest nephew (lord) has basically been out fighting!"
"Or is it just that the eldest nephew (lord) has hooked up with Princess Qi in the past few days since he returned to Jiangdu? It's unlikely, right? Princess Qi just gave birth less than a month ago, and it seems that she can't
Are you doing that? Then, why are you pinching me?"
After communicating with each other for a long time, Yuwen Zhiji and Wei Zheng still could not come to a more reliable conclusion, and they couldn't help but become more confused.
At this moment, Yuwen Chenglong finally opened his mouth to explain to the two of them, "Actually, the son born to the empress should be named Yuwen, not Yang!"
"Ah?" Hearing this, Yuwen Zhiji and Wei Zheng were completely stunned on the spot.
On the other side, Yuwen Chenglong was minding his own business and continued, "I don't want my brother Ni Qiang to happen to my Yuwen family in the future. Therefore, I want Prince Qi to ascend the throne. I wonder if you two can teach me."
