The autumn hunting lasted for less than half a month. The first few days were the end of the hunt, the next few days were about meritorious deeds and rewards, judging military officers, promoting and demoting them, and the last two days were cooking meals in the camp with the prey, and the emperor even cooked it himself. Deer, to reward meritorious ministers.

Since the first hunt, Fang Yu followed the emperor, and in the next half a month, he followed the emperor's buttocks, showing his face one by one where the emperor showed his face.

It was already the end of October when Fang Yu returned to the Forbidden City, and Fang Yu accompanied the emperor back to the palace. It was already late in the palace, and he went straight out of the city to go home without even going to the Imperial Academy.

Although the Royal Hunting Ground is not as far away as it used to be to rush for the exam, it is still half a month away, so I am missing my family.

"The lord is back!"

The carriage stopped at the gate of the house, and Xue Zhu trotted out to greet her. Fang Yu glanced in the direction of the gate, but no one came out for a long time: "Where is the husband? Why don't you see anyone?"

While helping Fang Yu pick up the salute, Xuezhu said: "The husband has talked about the lord many times, but unfortunately, I don't know that the lord is coming back today. Some time in the afternoon, the general's mansion sent a letter to invite the lord to come over."

Fang Yu was a little surprised: "Did someone say what it was?"

Xue Zhu said: "I heard from Si Yu that the general's husband is about to give birth, and I want the general to go and accompany her."

Fang Yuli calculated the time at the same place, Xiao Qiao's expected date of delivery is November, and You Lian's baby is about the same month as Xiao Qiao's, so it is reasonable to give birth now.But after listening to Xuezhu's talk, it passed away in the afternoon, and it was a bit strange why he hadn't come back since it was dark today.

"Forget it, I'll pick him up."

He quickly went into the mansion to change his official uniform, and went to the Fuguo General's mansion in the carriage without taking a break.

The carriage ran all the way to the gate of the majestic Fuguo General's Mansion where two stone lions were squatting. The General's Mansion was brightly lit, especially the lanterns hanging outside.

Fang Yu had accompanied Qiao Hezhi to have afternoon tea twice before, and had a banquet here. Before the carriage stopped and he had not reached the doorman, the doorman came forward and said, "Your Excellency, are you here to pick up Mrs. Fang?"

"My wife hasn't returned for a long time, so I came over to see if your master gave birth smoothly?"

The doorman didn't say anything at the door, and led Fang Yu straight inside. The General's Mansion is very spacious, and it takes half a quarter of an hour to get to the main room.

It was peaceful and quiet outside the gate, and it was only when they entered the mansion that they realized that there was something important going on in the mansion. In the past, there was no one in the garden where the servants and girls were like Zhi Zhi, and all the noisy voices came from one direction.

"The husband of our family has a difficult delivery, and we have invited all the best stable women doctors in the inner city, but there is no good news for a long time."

The doorman said worriedly: "It's been quite a while, and the child still hasn't landed on the ground, which alarmed the old lady."

Fang Yu knew the old lady in the General's Mansion. The old lady and the old Fuguo General had a deep love as husband and wife. Since the old general passed away, his wife has been recuperating in the General's Mansion, almost ignoring worldly affairs. Ordinary is not to leave their own yard.

"Is there an invitation to invite the imperial doctor in the palace?"

The doorman had a bitter face: "Earlier, the emperor Qiu Lie hadn't returned to court after the accident, and most of the imperial physicians had already accompanied Qiu Lie. There are not many imperial physicians on duty in the palace, and there are still nobles to look after them. How can we get away with it?" Please come to see a doctor, even handing over a post is useless."

"Your Majesty has returned to court today, and the imperial physicians have also returned, but at this time, they are no longer in the palace, and going to the palace is futile. In this way, you take my message to Fuqiang Lane and invite the imperial physician Ma, and I will be with him I have met several times in Autumn Hunting, he is a loyal man, maybe he is willing to take a trip."

If You Lian has any troubles, not only the general's mansion, but also the court will not be safe: "You send someone there quickly, don't follow me, I know the way."

The doorman quickly thanked him and led the order to trot out. Just as he was walking away, Fang Yu heard an all-too-familiar shout: "Husband!"

Fang Yu turned his head and saw Qiao Hezhi, who had a puffy stomach, was hurriedly walking towards this side supported by Si Yu, he hurried up to meet him, and grasped Qiao Hezhi's hand that was stretched out from a distance.

"Why are your palms so cold?" Fang Yu couldn't help being concerned, and looked at Qiao Hezhi carefully, his eyes were already a little red, and I don't know how many times he was jealous in the afternoon: "Don't cry, it's okay."

He took her into his arms, Qiao Hezhi shouldn't have come to see things like dystocia, but now that he is pregnant with Liujia, he will think about things on himself, which is not conducive to his childbirth in the future.It's just that You Lian is Qiao Hezhi's best friend in the capital, if he doesn't come at this juncture, it will really hurt feelings, and You Lian's husband is not around yet.

Qiao Hezhi was really a little scared. Seeing You Lian in such pain, he was really worried.

Now Fang Yu is finally back, he was like duckweed drifting, but he has roots in his heart when he sees people.After a while, he got up from Fang Yu's arms again, wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, and dragged Fang Yu to a quiet place: "My husband must have rushed back after returning to the court. I don't know what happened."

Fang Yu frowned upon hearing this: "What happened?"

"Brother Yuan Youlian is almost due to give birth, and the mother-in-law can give birth smoothly, but today the northwest suddenly sent a letter back to the general's mansion, saying... that there are traitors in the army, and the general was punished when he led the army. The ambush was seriously injured, and he was defeated in one battle, and he is currently recuperating in the camp, and his life is dying."

Qiao Hezhi's fingertips felt cold, and if it wasn't for Fang Yu holding hands, he would almost have torn his clothes: "The mansion received a letter, and You Lian almost fainted, and after being hit this time, he would have had a difficult delivery."

Fang Yu's expression became very heavy after hearing this. The Fuguo General's family has few heirs, and the old general has already died for the country. If the only son also died at the border, it would be too tragic.Thinking of You Lian being summoned to the border after only a few months of marriage with the general, a farewell would mean life and death, no matter who said it, he had to lament.

He gently caressed Qiao Hezhi's back, and comforted him: "The general's husband is in good health. Auspicious people have their own signs, and they will definitely get through this test. Don't be too sad, and take care of your body. I have sent someone to Please see Ma Tai doctor."

After the two talked about the ins and outs, no matter how good their hearts were, they couldn't sit still, so they had to pace back and forth in the large courtyard outside the delivery room. The old lady was holding a string of Buddhist beads, although she didn't look around and cry like ordinary people. Sigh, but the speed at which the fingers move the beads is very fast, and the lips are constantly opening and closing, thinking about it, my heart is also in a mess.

The life and death of her son is uncertain, and her daughter-in-law and grandson don't know whether she will survive. No one is more anxious and worried than this old lady.

"Physician Ma is here, Physician Ma is here!"

Everyone looked back, and saw the gray-haired imperial doctor being helped by his servants, he stopped and hurriedly wiped his sweat while bowing to Fang Yu. The old man was old, and he must have heard that it was a life-and-death moment to give birth, so he was in a hurry Come over in a panic.

"Doctor Ma, please make a trip late at night."

"Don't bother, don't bother, as a doctor, this is what you should, not to mention this is the Fuguo General's Mansion."

The two sides did not say a few words, You Lian was very important, and the imperial physician was hurriedly invited in.

Fang Yu seldom asks a doctor to see a doctor. He is in the prime of his life, and he is in good health, so there is little chance of getting sick. Qiao Hezhi had a few colds, but they were minor ailments, which could be treated by a doctor in the city.He has never invited an imperial physician, one reason is that his official position is too low to hire an imperial physician, and the other is that he has not made friends with the imperial physicians he is familiar with.

This imperial doctor Ma was trusted by the emperor when he brought Qiu Lie to him. Because Qiu Lie was with the emperor, he also met this imperial doctor who often went in and out of the emperor. Although Fang Yu had never had much friendship with him, he brushed his face every day and could still greet each other when they saw each other. The medical skills that were affirmed by the emperor were nothing to say.

He was able to come today not only because of his own face, but with the title of Fuguo General's Mansion, it is difficult to find an immovable imperial physician. After all, he is a second-rank high-ranking official, and a fifth- or sixth-rank imperial physician is to gain face in front of the emperor. That is also a luxury that cannot be compared with the meritorious deeds of generations.

His hand was pinched by Qiao Hezhi, and after about a stick of incense, a loud cry of a baby calmed everyone's hearts from their throats back to their stomachs, and Qiao Hezhi suddenly threw himself into Fang Yu's arms .

The hand of the old lady in the general's mansion who was moving the prayer beads stopped suddenly, her weather-beaten old eyes slightly closed, and she let out a long breath.

"Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the old lady, you are a young master!"

"Buddha blesses you."

Fang Yu and Qiao Hezhi were invited into the side room by the old lady, and the maid brought the loosely wrapped baby over, everyone looked at it, it was a heavy little boy.Qiao Hezhi only glanced at it, then hurriedly went to the delivery room to see You Lian, Fang Yu was chasing after the man's back, he didn't say a word but felt a little panicked.

Everyone's thoughts are on the child, and they all think about the bloodline, but few people care about the little brother who went through life and death to give birth to the child.

The old lady thanked Fang Yu and the young couple, and also thanked the imperial doctor Ma, and asked the servants to prepare a generous amount of wedding money, and specially sent someone from the general's mansion to send the imperial doctor back in person. The most important thing is that Dr. Ma's skillful hand rejuvenated, and the baby was born smoothly after a few needles.

After being frightened all afternoon and worrying for so long, the old lady went to see You Lian, and returned to the yard only after the maid persuaded her, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Fang Yu was not in a hurry to urge Qiao Hezhi to go home, and it was at the end of the Xu Dynasty that You Lianzhuan was accompanied by Qiao Hezhi by his natal family before leaving with Fang Yu.

"I wrote a letter and sent it back to Yuncheng before the autumn hunt. My mother-in-law should leave to come to the capital to accompany you. When the time comes, I will accompany you to give birth to the child, and I will go back after the new year."

Qiao Hezhi leaned against Fang Yu, and he was a little tired: "Okay. Seeing that You Lian is fine, I am not afraid anymore."

Fang Yu stroked Qiao Hezhi's soft hair and smiled gently.

"After so many days, autumn hunting is interesting? Don't tell me about this trip."

Fang Yu was a little absent-minded. The defeat in the Northwest War must have brought another storm in the court. At the end of the year, I am afraid that he will not be free.

However, he did not show worry in front of Qiao Hezhi, he only smiled and talked to Qiao Hezhi about the autumn hunting, and also diverted some of his worries today: "I am a civil servant and have never raised an arrow. I have accompanied the emperor all the way. I just went to watch the hunting."

"There is one thing I can talk to you about. Now I know the identity of Big Brother Chu. He is actually..."
