ex husband always trying to get me pregnant

The accident happened suddenly, and many people's whole family was poisoned, and they were suddenly helpless.Xia Yan ordered an ancestral hall to be cleared in the east of the city, and all the poisoned people would be housed there. The county doctor would conduct a centralized consultation, and the county government would allocate manpower to join hands with the relatives of the poisoned people, the temple monks who came to help, and some common people. care.

Xia Yan also personally sat in the town to supervise.

Two days later, the doctor made new progress.

"My lord, the poisoned people gathered in the east of the city this time. The difference between the east of the city and other places in the city is the daily drinking water."

Xia Yan frowned when he heard this.

Adjacent to the east of the city is a river flowing in from outside the city. Most of the people in the east of the city use it nearby, while those farther away mostly use the well water in the county.

It seems that the poison was dropped in the river water.

"I'm ashamed, I haven't figured out how to detoxify yet, I only found some ways to delay the toxicity." The leading old doctor with white beard said.

Xia Yan was overjoyed immediately, leaned over and said, "What way?"

The doctors, however, had a gloomy look on their faces, and said, "My lord, the poisoned person loses strength and quickly loses consciousness, but as long as he eats, he will feel relieved."

"That is to say, they need to eat more?" Xia Yan raised his eyebrows.

The old doctor bowed down, "At present, it looks like this."

This time, Xia Yan understood everything.

He got up and paced back and forth for a while, finally facing the crowd, he said with a final word: "Just take care of everyone, the county government will be responsible for the food you need, make sure everyone is well."

The doctors who bowed their heads looked at each other and smiled unexpectedly and joyfully.After the people heard about it, they were also grateful.

After arranging everything, Xia Yan left the ancestral hall and went to the city wall.On the way, they met Cheng Xi who had just come back from the investigation, and the two talked about their gains, which further confirmed the intention of the poison.

"It seems that the Second Prince has poison masters under his command." Cheng Xi said, "The poison that was used on me before was only effective when it was treated with healing powder, the slow medicine that broke out after a year, and now it will not kill people but consumes food. The poison is really a novelty."

Xia Yan said angrily, "I can't just stand by and watch everyone have something to do. Even if there is only a morsel of food left, I must save it."

"That's what he's grasping." Cheng Xi said, "The food won't last three months, which is very bad for us."

"But there is no other way." Xia Yan looked worried, his chest and bulging stomach gasped and heaved. After a while, he shook his head and waved his hands, and turned to walk, "Let's not talk about this, go to the city wall."

"Yan'er." Cheng Xi held his wrist, "Take a break first."

Xia Yan looked back at Cheng Xi, "The situation is critical now, how can I rest?!"

"Don't care about this short moment!" Cheng Xi emphasized, and after a pause, he stepped forward and held Xia Yan's shoulders, "You have worked so hard these past two days, if you don't rest, you will completely collapse later, what should you do? What about you baby? What to do? What should the many people in Xuanwu County do?!"

Xia Yan's breathing was stagnant, and his brows were furrowed.

After a stick of incense, he followed Cheng Xi to a sparsely populated soil slope, sat with his knees hugged, and looked at the catkins fluttering in the late spring wind, his eyes slackened.

"Just for a moment, forget that you are the prince, the county magistrate of Xuanwu, and also forget about the second prince, wars, poisoning, etc., okay?" Cheng Xi said.

Xia Yan was still in a daze.

"Your lips are split again." Cheng Xi approached and touched them lightly with his fingers, "Your complexion is also very bad, and the bruise at the moment is only from the past. How can there be such a thing? "The tone was half joking and half distressed, and Xia Yan's heart relaxed a little.

He whispered: "Didn't you just want me to work hard before? You are satisfied now."

"Not at all." Cheng Xi said firmly, "I used to be a fool and self-righteous. Now I just want you to sleep until noon every day and do nothing but eat, drink and play."

Xia Yan embraced Cheng Xi's arm and leaned over, sniffing and sighing, "I really want to."

"It will definitely." Cheng Xi touched his cheek, lowered his head, and saw his increasingly round belly, feeling sorry for him, so he came to sit behind him, let him lean on his back with his four limbs flat, and put his hands against it. Grab his lower back and push gently.

"It's so comfortable..." Xia Yan nestled in Cheng Xi's arms, closed her eyes and muttered lazily to herself, "It would be great if I could always be this comfortable."

Finally, his body completely collapsed, and under the cover of Chun Guang and Cheng Xi, he fell asleep completely for the first time in two days.

His hands and feet were drooping, his mouth was slightly opened, his breathing was shallow and gentle, and he looked very devoted.

Cheng Xi lowered his strength, lowered his head, and planted a kiss on his forehead, then gently took off his boots as usual.

Surrounded by urgency and danger, time seems to slow down.

……

Supervise the battle situation, sort out the county government, come to the ancestral hall again to inquire about the situation of the poisoned people, and then inspect the county.

After completing the tasks one by one, after midnight, Xuanwu County fell into silence, Xia Yan's spirit relaxed, and he didn't even have the strength to wash, and he lay on the table and was about to fall asleep.

Fortunately, Cheng Xi had already sat on the stove with hot water in advance. At this time, he poured it into the bathtub and mixed it with cold water. He soaked Xia Yan with his round belly in his arms, relieved his fatigue, and then hugged him on the bed, covered him gently with thin quilt.

Xia Yan was still restless in his sleep, and occasionally his body twitched nervously, which made Cheng Xi feel distressed.

Cheng Xi went to the window to watch the night for a while, and after half an hour, he lightly changed into his night clothes, took a closer look at Xia Yanzai, went out of the house and closed the door, and plunged into the darkness.

In the hidden place outside the city, the camp of the siege army could be seen from a distance. A moment later, with the sound of flapping wings, Cheng Xi raised his arms, and the vigorous and vigorous Ah Bai came down.

Under the double pressure of besieging the city and treating the poisoned people, the surplus food of the county government and the food of the wealthy households in the city added up, barely enough for a month.

Although the common people didn't hear the exact news, they all saw it in their eyes and knew that they were about to face the embarrassment of having no food to eat and a large-scale attack on the city. There was less and less speech between them, but what was different from before was that no one condemned the county government anymore, no one clamored to go out of the city, everyone was doing their own things, and the suppressed faces appeared at the same time, since it was inevitable to avoid There is no need to avoid calmness and determination.

So is Xia Yan.

He issued an order that soldiers, poisoned civilians, pregnant women and those who had just given birth should be provided with [-]% of the grain for the elderly and children, and [-]% for the young and middle-aged.Although I was pregnant, as a county magistrate, I was supposed to take the lead, so I took the initiative to be consistent with the young and middle-aged.

Cheng Xi didn't stop him, but gave him part of his rations.Xia Yan was silent for a long time, but did not refuse after all.

Immediately afterwards, many people also proposed to reduce the food supply, and the county government asked doctors to check their bodies one by one, and approved the request for those who were confirmed to be healthy.

For a while, Xuanwu County slowly accumulated strength against the enemy in the silence.

"From now on, I will clearly remember every grain of every meal that everyone is missing. In the future, I will personally repay them twice."

"I believe that day will not be too far away."

Xia Yan was wearing light armor and holding a bow and arrow on the field of the Daying Camp, practicing intently at the target twenty paces away.

Cheng Xi stood aside, quietly guarding and listening.

With a flick of the bowstring, Xia Yan let go of his left hand, and an arrow cut through the air.

"When the enemy army comes, I will personally meet it."

The arrow hit the target, and the tail feathers trembled with the unabated power.

"I've also figured it out. If it's really invincible, ensuring the safety of the people is the number one priority."

Xia Yan put his hands down, looked forward with firm eyes, and his innocent face was covered with wind and frost.

"At that time, we left first to attract the second prince to chase after us." Turning his head, he looked at Cheng Xi with red eyes, "My only and last hope is to keep everyone here."

Cheng Xi nodded, came up to hold Xia Yan's hand tightly, stroking his loose hair on his forehead, and said, "Yan'er, do you know what my last wish is?"

Xia Yan stared at him with blinking eyes.

Cheng Xi smiled, and said gently but solemnly: "We will stay with you and our child for a long time, and we will never be separated again."

Shocked in Xia Yan's heart, she took a step forward and hugged Cheng Xi tightly.

Twenty days later, Xuanwu County ran out of food.

Two days later, the second prince personally led the soldiers to attack the city.

Cheng Xi led the city guards to meet the enemy head-on, Xia Yan led the archers to line up at the top of the city, the county lieutenant led the cavalry to guard the city gate and stood by at any time, and the people stayed at home and stayed behind closed doors.

Amidst the roar of shouts and roars, the siege towers approached aggressively, and when they reached the bottom of the city, they fell into the trenches dug by Xuanwu soldiers in advance.However, the siege soldiers did not retreat. They continued to use short or crooked towers to climb up, with more men, horses and equipment behind them.

Cheng Xi calmly commanded the soldiers to throw stones with trebuchets. Xia Yan and the archers stepped forward one by one. Unable to knock back the opponent.

You come and go, the two sides are in a stalemate, from dawn to noon, Xia Yan stands on the top of the tower, his armor is almost soaked.

He raised his bow and arrow, his hands were trembling, the figures in front of his eyes were blurred, his brain was buzzing, and his stomach was aching.

He knew that many soldiers were the same as him, but they still persisted, and none of them fell down. How could he, the county magistrate and the prince, give up first? !

Xia Yan secretly made up his mind, insisted on standing still with barely conscious legs, squinted his eyes and pursed his lips, exerted strength with both arms, and fired the arrow again!

In his ears, his comrades were desperately yelling to resist tenaciously. Behind them were relatives and friends, and their homeland was completely empty of grain. For all of them, this battle was both the first and the last time...

Never lose.

The chest was shaking, sweat and tears were mixed, and the blood was spilled.

The soldiers fought with their lives as if they were dying, and issued the cry of mourning soldiers.

Xia Yan gritted his teeth tightly and repeated arrow after arrow until he thought he had auditory hallucinations.

The messenger soldiers from the rear galloped forward, shouting forward layer by layer——

"There is food! My lord! Everyone! We have food!"

"There's a lot of food! Be full!"

"Kill—! Drive them out of Xuanwu!"

Xia Yan's hands gripping the bow and arrow trembled violently, his sweaty pale face was startled, the soldiers rushed up wildly and excitedly, releasing all the depression accumulated in nearly a month, and the renewed fighting spirit to win was higher than ever. A wave completely submerged Xia Yan.
