The husband's son-in-law

On the birthday of the Holy Mother and Empress Dowager, the folk acrobatic troupe who originally celebrated the birthday suddenly launched an attack and almost killed Emperor Tianshun who was watching the juggling at that time.Not to mention how embarrassing Emperor Tianshun was at the time, and after controlling the assassin, it was a severe trial.

Among them, the assassin committed suicide by taking poison at that time, and the remaining two were stopped before they came. After severe torture and interrogation, they came to the conclusion that the Zhao family conspired to kill the king.

Regardless of whether the real Zhao family was framed or framed by others, Emperor Tianshun was frightened and furious. After thinking about it for a while, he first put the members of the Zhao family in prison, and some subordinates reported that the descendants of the Zhao family were not in the mansion.

Now it is settled that it was the Zhao family who did it.

Things were like a gust of wind and rain, crackling and falling, and the leaves fell and the flowers were broken, and I was caught off guard.

Sitting in the mansion, Prince Cheng looked at the pouring rain outside the window, and laughed loudly, "Have fun, it's fun, it's fun, my second brother, can you still hold on now?"

"This is the first step. I want you and the entire Zhao family to pay for my hand, my..." Dragon Chair.

At that time, Emperor Tianshun was furious and put the Zhao family in prison. After a few days, he confirmed that the Zhao family was really the one behind the conspiracy to kill the king, but he hesitated and tangled up. .

But it's too late.

Beijing is deeply intertwined, the water is deep and the network is dense, and there are many forces playing games. Some people claim to understand the situation, and they probably want to get some benefits from it and take some credit.

Sitting on the dragon chair is Emperor Tianshun, but this capital is not under the jurisdiction of Emperor Tianshun.

Even Gu Zhao, who was far away in Wuzhou, heard the news, but it was more than October at that time, and Wuzhou was still hot, autumn tiger, and there was no sign of cooling down at all.

Mr. Gu can go back to Zhaozhou after approving the final documents in Wuzhou.

Zhong Qi came back from Rongzhou and was reporting the news to him, so Gu Zhao slowly put down the pen in his hand and rested for a while.

In general, in the past five months or so, Meng Jianyun has participated in small battles involving thousands of people five times since the recruits who just arrived at the barracks did not go to the battlefield at the beginning, and has now been promoted to a small team of ten people. .

On the surface, from a relationship with distant relatives in a kitchen, he was promoted to captain in five months——

Gu Zhao thought it was quite fast, Xiao Meng was worthy of being his and Zhou Zhoushou's son, so he nodded happily, knowing that Xiao Meng's promotion was no big deal.

"My lord, there is another news, but I don't know if it's true or not. The Zhao family in Beijing rebelled. I heard that the whole family has been imprisoned. I'll wait until the autumn to ask about it—"

"what?!"

Gu Zhaoyouzai's pleased expression suddenly disappeared, and turned into surprise. The second prince of the assistant king holds a heavy army, and now he is in a state of extreme tension and confrontation with the emperor of Jingli. It is also the second prince's rebellion. How could the Zhao family rebel at this time? ?

Made it, help the Zhao family's children to the top?

"Tell me what you heard in detail."

Zhong Qi said, it was quite vivid, what a juggler, a fire splattered all over the place at that time, the emperor was very happy, and then the juggler scolded the dog emperor directly drew out the dagger from his arms and flew towards the emperor, the emperor was so frightened that he fell off the chair and climbed up with...

Gu Zhao: ...

Those who don't know think they are listening to operas.

Really good trance.

It means that the Zhao family bribed the juggling troupe to assassinate the emperor.

Gu Zhao stroked and stroked again and again, and finally decided to inquire again. Jingli is so far away from Wuzhou, so it is possible to spread rumors, but the truth is not the case—otherwise it would be too childish.

If the Zhao family were really stupid, they would not have held the military power from the time of Emperor Kang Jing to the present. The Zhao family had intentions, but now it is the second prince who is more ambitious to assist the king.

The plotter's affairs are complicated, peeling away the layers of surface, and the inside is densely packed like a spider's web. People in Beijing can't see the source clearly, let alone in Wuzhou, they have heard gossip about more than a dozen hands.

Gu Zhao felt that it shouldn't be.

The result was a slap in the face.

He hadn't waited for the letter from Zhaozhou merchants, but the assistant king led troops from Fengzhou in the northwest to the capital, and the momentum was huge, so naturally he couldn't hide the news.

Gu Zhao heard the news a little too late. After confirming the truth three times, he frowned and sighed, "...it's messed up."

If it was chaotic before, but the situation is still clear, now it is a stew of internal and external troubles.

Sure enough, the Fan Kingdom in Rongzhou attacked with tens of thousands of troops, and the generals stationed in Rongzhou were killed by surprise. The Fan Kingdom attacked a city, and the officials who defended the city fled early——

Gu Zhao didn't dare to think about the people in that city.

"Pack up and go to Xinzhou." Gu Zhao told his subordinates, after thinking for a while, he hurriedly sat down at the table and wrote a hand letter, asking Zhong Shiyi to take his younger brothers to run errands back to Zhaozhou to deliver the letter.

"My lord!" Eleven didn't want to leave and wanted to stay and protect your lord to go to Xinzhou.

Gu Zhaodao: "I'm an adult, and I won't go to the battlefield in person, what are you afraid of, don't be verbose, and take the three of you back quickly."

Eleventh could only get the order, took the hand letter and led people back to Zhaozhou on horseback, but as soon as he got out of the gate of Yanzhou, he looked at Xinzhou with red eyes, gritted his teeth, and said to his three younger brothers: "Go back first, listen grown-ups."

That person surnamed Wang is an idiot!

Although Xinzhou is not the main battlefield, the new king from Nanyi is obviously more ruthless and ambitious than the old Wang. He knows that he can't swallow the Dali, so he joins forces with the neighboring country to form an alliance, trying to bite off a piece of Dali.

It was already November and autumn.

The weather finally cools down.But Gu Zhao rushed to Xinzhou in a hurry, and when he entered Xinzhou, the prefects and acquaintances here were still the same as usual-the current status of officials is leisurely.

Those who can go to the Yamen to do some work are regarded as diligent and good officials.

Zhaozhou City, Li Mansion.

"You're getting heavy now, don't go to the lake, where the water vapor is heavy." Li Zhouzhou said halfway, "Otherwise, you'd better move to my place."

"Father is not in the way, the yard I live in is far from the lake." Brother Lin sat on a chair with a soft cushion on his waist, wearing a loose shirt, and couldn't hide his round belly some.

Meng Jianyun left in mid-May, and Brother Lin cried for a few days. Fortunately, Wang Jian came back, and Li Zhouzhou also found something to distract Brother Lin, and soon Brother Lin got better. It's hot, this year Brother Lin doesn't know why, he loves to sweat a lot and is afraid of heat, so he likes to drink cold sour plum soup.

Wang Jian sometimes watched Brother Lin drink it, but later he didn’t even put in the sugar, and his teeth felt sore all of a sudden. He also said to Brother Lin, “You used to like sweet things the most, why have you changed your appetite now?”

"Drinking sour water to quench your thirst in summer is no longer hot, but it's always sweet to drink water."

"Then you can't drink sour plum soup with water, you still have to drink water."

"Know it!"

The two often talked and chatted together, Brother Lin had a good appetite later on, and he ate deliciously, but he didn't like meat before and liked vegetarian dishes, but now he eats more meat.Wang Jian saw that Brother Lin was not sad anymore, his appetite improved, and he was even happier. When he came to Li Mansion, he always brought Brother Lin to eat outside.

The two of them hadn't been through anything, and they didn't know what was wrong.Coincidentally, Liu Tao had a big belly and couldn't move around, so until August, when Wang Jian wanted to ship the goods, he didn't find anything wrong with Brother Lin.

Li Zhouzhou didn't think so either.

It was still around September, when Liu Tao was about to give birth, Li Zhouzhou went to see Su Shiyi - he was Liu Tao's elder in Zhaozhou, for Liu Tao's birth was such a big event, an adult had to be in charge. Didn't go, but it's not a good thing for a man.

Brother Lin went to accompany him.

Wen Po is a veteran of Zhaozhou City, and just in case, she invited Oda to come——the Zheng family's medical book is partial to obstetrics, especially the Zheng's family's ancestral birth and safety soup, which is a good thing.

Xiaotao was a little scared, so Li Zhouzhou said in detail, "...When I gave birth to Fubao, my success was because of this bowl of soup, don't be afraid."

Everything is in order, Liu Tao is lying on the bed in the delivery room, listening to her reassuring words, she is not so afraid, her name is Brother Zhou Zhou, I am not afraid anymore.

Later, Oda didn't come in handy, and Mrs. Wen delivered the baby by herself, which was very smooth.

"Congratulations, you have given birth to a daughter." Mrs. Wen announced the congratulations.

Su Shiyi was overjoyed, and called him at the door to be a father. The delivery room smelled of blood and went in before it was cleaned up. Brother Lin was in the delivery room, and for some reason, he felt a little sick. He was suppressed. Once the door was opened, the fresh air outside collided with the air inside, making him feel even more uncomfortable.

It was Li Zhouzhou who discovered it first. Brother Lin's face was very pale, and he covered his mouth. He hurriedly took Brother Lin out, "Why don't you tell me that you are not feeling well. Hey, look at the expression on your face. The hot water is here. Take a sip first, Xiaotian will show him..."

With Xiaotian's pulse, brother Lin will be pregnant for almost four months.

Counting the days, it was Meng Jianyun's time in May.

Brother Lin was stunned, he was happy when he came back to his senses, and he was a little scared, so he asked Dr. Xiaotian how his baby looked like.

Everything is fine and steady.

Li Zhouzhou was always afraid, he didn't pay attention to this one or two, but fortunately nothing happened.Later, Brother Yu came to the mansion to talk, and Li Zhouzhou told Brother Yu that if he felt sick to his stomach and wanted to vomit, don't be afraid to ask a doctor. Brother Yu is not like a woman and can know a little about menstruation, so I have to pay attention.

Don't be afraid to fail, you and Hou Tong are both young, and you are not pregnant, so take good care of your body. When the two of you are healthy, the child will arrive.

Let’s just say that now, it’s autumn in November, and the weather is cold.

Brother Lin's stomach is already round, and his little face is also rounded, but it's not ugly, Li Zhouzhou thinks it's shiny and moist, how nice it is.

"If you're hungry at night, eat something. Eat small meals often. Don't be afraid to bother the kitchen. The two cooks come in reverse. They're full of staff. They're all taking care of you. It's better if you don't let Xiaomeng send a message." Be careful." Li Zhouzhou explained to Brother Lin.

The child has a big appetite later on, and wakes up hungry at night, but it's not easy to toss the servants to light the lamp and cook for him, so he has been sleeping hungry all the time, which is impossible.It was Li Mu who was careful and kept watch at night. When he found out, he came back and told him.

Ever since Li Mu knew that Brother Lin was pregnant, he went to school and came back every day, and slept on the bedside bed in Brother Lin's room at night to wait for Brother Lin to get up at night, fearing that something would happen at night.

Li Zhouzhou felt relieved after hearing this.

Let Li Mu go to school with Fubao's car.

"I still have a sore waist and swollen legs, so I can't sit for a long time. When the weather is good, take a walk at home, don't get tired."

The weather will be fine this time, in the pavilion of Li Mansion, Li Zhou, Zhou Rong, Ye Lin and his brother are sitting and talking in the sun, the sun in spring and autumn is the best, it makes people feel warm.

Rong Ye listened to Li Zhouzhou's series of experiences, but only drank tea and did not chat, but when he looked at Brother Lin's round belly, his eyes softened a little.

He knew that his brother was pregnant and gave birth, but it was the first time he saw it like this up close.

"Father, I am obedient." Brother Lin said that he would listen and agree to everything.

After pregnancy, my temper is no longer irritable, but softer, like a sweet dumpling.Li Zhouzhou couldn't stop worrying about this, paying attention to everything.

"You are good." Li Zhouzhou praised Brother Lin, and then he realized that he kept talking about this, so he said: "Let you listen to me recite the Birth Sutra, how is the fourteen wounds? The weather is getting colder, Zhaozhou is watching It’s not cold, but the humidity is heavier than that in the north, and Oda may not know how to make soup like the cooks in the house, but you have to ask if the ingredients are compatible with the medicinal properties.”

Rong Ye first said: "It's just for small talk." The scriptures on giving birth to children are also novel to him, and he has never heard of them before.He also said: "He has lost a lot of body weight, and he looks like he is almost healthy now, but when it's cold, he coughs."

It rained the other day.

Li Zhou heard it on Monday, this is really not good, the [-]th entered the Li Mansion in April, and he was unconscious for more than half a month, and it was almost January, and he woke up in May, and now it has been more than half a year , the external injuries are all healed, but after listening to Xiao Rong say so, it is indeed healed, the skin is not whole inside.

"That can't be rushed, we still need to raise more."

Just as he was talking, someone came to pass it on, saying: "My lord, I brought you back home on Eleventh."

"Only eleven?" Li Zhouzhou asked.Counting the days, Xianggong should be back soon, but Eleven is coming back alone, don't be delayed by anything, "Let Eleven come directly."

After a while, Eleven came over and handed the letter to the boss with a slightly hesitant look on his face.

Rong Ye got up and said, "Stop drinking, I'll go and see Fourteen."

"Okay." Li Zhouzhou agreed, and Brother Lin said that he would also go back to sleep.Li Zhouzhou said: "Slow down on the road, don't take the gravel road, be careful of slippery, take the cement road."

Seeing that Li Zhouzhou was worried at both ends, Rong Ye said, "I'll send Brother Lin back."

"Thank you very much." Li Zhouzhou was also polite.

As soon as Li Mu went to school, there was only one capable girl next to Brother Lin. She was good at doing things, and she was also smart and quick-witted, but the little girl was not tall, so he usually sent Brother Lin back, but this one——

Rong Ye sent the same.

As soon as the people left, Li Zhouzhou didn't open the letter, and asked Eleven, "Why are you telling the truth?"

On the eleventh, it was explained clearly.Li Zhou Zhouyue's eyebrows were a little serious, and he opened the letter. In the letter, he didn't hide anything, saying that he had something to go to Xinzhou temporarily, but he didn't explain the battle situation, so he must be worried.

"Boss, there may not be any danger. My lord said that before he reached that point, he just went to have a look."

Before reaching the step of defending the city with death, Xinzhou is still safe now, General Wang is guarding the front, and Nanyi has not yet attacked, so it is Gu Zhao who is worried about going over to have a look.

But what if?

Li Zhouzhou's heart beat a little faster, the husband knows the seriousness - he will not trade his life, and there is a family, he believes what the Xianggong said, because of the fall of the state city in Rongzhou, don't worry, go and see the explanation one time.

"You have worked hard, take a few to rest first."

He has to think about it.

After Li Zhouzhou, he was a little restless. He always wanted to fight in Xinzhou. Fu Bao could see it. Dad frowned. When he saw him let go again, Fu Bao said, "Dad, is there something to worry about?" about it?"

"No—your father hasn't come back yet. I'm a little worried. It's not safe to fight over there." Li Zhouzhou originally wanted to coax Fu Bao, but he said it after thinking about it, but he covered it up a bit.

Fu Bao thought for a moment and said: "Father brought someone, but he is not a military officer, so he will not go to the battlefield to fight."

"Yes." Li Zhouzhou nodded.

But Fu Bao knew that his words did not comfort Dad, and Dad was still worried.

Li Zhouzhou sent someone to Xinzhou to inquire about the news, but Li Zhouzhou felt uneasy because of the time on the way. Rong Ye came over in a few days and said, "I shouldn't ask you about your personal affairs, Li Zhaoxi needs to have some piano lessons today Kind of sad."

In the past, when Fu Bao played the piano, he was always tinkling and happy.

"..." Li Zhouzhou didn't know what to say.

Rong Ye: "If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."

"No, it's all my random thoughts and worries. Don't provoke me, I know you are kind." Li Zhouzhou asked Rong Ye to sit down and chat, "You, you only know how you are when you get along with friends. To friends It's kind of awkward to be kind and gentle, and it's obviously here to care about me."

Rong Ye was silent for a while, "Tell me why you are worried."

"My family's husband went to Xinzhou. Rongzhou next door has always been the main battlefield. A few days ago, a city was lost there, and the officials abandoned the city and ran away. After hearing this, my husband was worried and went to Xinzhou."

"General Wang over there sighed when he mentioned it. It may not be this far, but I can't sit still and think about it." Li Zhouzhou couldn't help sighing, "I've already sent someone to investigate the situation."

Rong Ye said: "The Fan Kingdom colluded with Nanyi and captured a city according to you. It can be seen that the main combat power of the Fan Kingdom was gone before the army was conscripted. Rongzhou's military strength should not be like this. Now that Rongzhou has reacted, it should fight, and the main force of the Fan Kingdom has been occupied, so Xinzhou should not have any extra soldiers and horses. As for the Nanyi—"

Li Zhouzhou listened to Rong Ye's analysis, and relaxed a little. The Fan country is the big one. As long as the Fan country doesn't get involved in Xinzhou, the Nanyi soldiers and horses can compete with the Xinzhou soldiers and horses now, so it shouldn't be the worst he guessed. Bad that end.

"Master Gu is a good official." Rong Ye said.

Li Zhouzhou: "Speaking of selfishness, I think I'm safe and secure."

Human nature.

A few days later, the people sent by Li Zhouzhou came back, and the report was indeed as Rong Ye analyzed, it was indeed a few battles, it was a bit difficult, General Wang retreated, and now the Nanyi did not fight again.

Li Zhouzhou asked people to rest, and checked the situation after the [-]th.

The day before Eleven left, Rong Ye came to Li Zhouzhou and said, "I'm here to say goodbye to you. You have to find a new teacher for the piano playing class. I'm sorry."

"?!" Li Zhouzhou was stunned, "What's wrong, or do you want to do something else, and now you're leaving alone, where are you going?"

Rong Ye: "Xinzhou. My servant will ask you to take him in."

"...Are you going to Xinzhou?!"

"There's still fourteen left." Rong Ye made it clear, "Fourteen was originally the general stationed in Xinzhou, and now his injuries are mostly healed, so it's time to pass."

"Zhou Zhou, don't worry about it. I made this decision with him because Mr. Gu is in danger in Xinzhou. You saved Shisi and me. It's to repay your kindness, but it's not."

"We're friends."

"I have been in Zhaozhou Lifu for more than a year, and my heart is peaceful and at ease. In fact, I didn't like teaching classes at the beginning. The children were too noisy and the people were irritated. But unexpectedly, I slept soundly. But Zhou Zhou, There is an uncontrollable restlessness in my bones, and I am a schemer."

"He fights, and I'll be his military adviser. We bid farewell today, and tomorrow we will set off with Eleven." Rong Ye smiled on his stern face, "See you in the future, friend."

Li Zhouzhou had a lot to say in his mind, but there was only one sentence in his thousands of words: "Remember to come back."

"Ah."

This is the time Rong Ye talked the most.Li Zhouzhou has been with Rong Ye for more than a year. In fact, he had expected such a day in his heart. Rong Ye is not the brother who guards the family, husband and godson, he is not a brother, and he is not a man. The ambitious Rong Ye.

Early the next morning, a small group of horsemen came out of Li Mansion, went straight to the north gate of Zhaozhou, and headed all the way to Xinzhou.

The lady proprietress who got up early and set up an early stall saw it, and said back, "Isn't this Mr. Rong from Li Mansion, why did he go out of the city dressed so neatly?"

"Did you read it wrong?"

"Teacher Rong is so good-looking, how could he be mistaken, the leader seems to be Teacher Rong's cousin, who sent Teacher Rong to school early in the morning, and even came to our place to buy food, looks exactly like Teacher Rong Pretty..."

While talking, she strayed from the topic, and the proprietress finally sighed: "I don't know which girl is worthy of it. These two brothers are not married. If they marry together, it will not be a lively and happy event."

Seeing his mother-in-law talking about it for a long time, the boss was working dully, and muttered in a low voice: "It's better to run away, it's better to come back and bring your daughter-in-law back, so you don't have to worry about it, and keep talking about others."

"What are you muttering about?" the proprietress asked loudly.

The boss hurried to work, pretending to be fine, and said that he would move the pot out.

In mid-December, Eleven first brought someone back, and his face was full of joy. Li Zhouzhou saw the man, and without hearing anything, he saw the uncontrollable joy in his eyebrows and put his heart down.

"Boss, my lord told me to report back first. He will arrive in about two days."

At this time, Li Zhouzhou nodded with a smile on his face, and asked, "Where is Shisi and Teacher Rong? How are they two?"

"General Li is very powerful. Under his leadership, the Nanyi army was beaten like chopping vegetables. Now they are stationed in Xinzhou. Army division Rong is now General Li's military division and lives in the main camp. I will report back."

Li Zhou was completely relieved when he heard that everyone was safe.

On this day, all the servants of Li's mansion got rewards.

When Li Zhaoxi came back from school, seeing his father's face was full of joy, he was immediately overjoyed. He ran back with a bag of snacks in his hand, which he bought from outside, originally to make his father happy.

Now, Li Zhouzhou is happier eating this package of dim sum.

"Is dad coming back?" Although Li Zhaoxi asked, he was sure.

Li Zhouzhou touched Fubao's head, his eyes were also bent and he smiled, "Well, I'll be back in two days, your father likes to eat roast lamb, we will have a barbecue in the backyard later, he likes to eat like this best. "

Fu Bao was also happy, and let his father touch his head.

The father and son had the same eyebrows and eyes, and they were full of smiles.
