When Wei Duoyou led the coalition forces and the Guards to join forces from the southwest and arrived at King Wei Rong's tent, thick fog covered every corner of the grassland. The sun was blocked, and people and horses could not see the way. No one knew whether there was any trace of Wei Rong.

The soldiers and horses were ambush in this thick fog, but after the arduous journey, no one wanted to go back home at this moment. Relying on the old people of the Kui Rong tribe, they followed the traces of horse hoofs on the ground and led the large group of troops to the place inch by inch.

Near the king's tent.

There was nothing in this abandoned camp. Could it be that Wei Nu had escaped? People were very discouraged and could only rest temporarily and wait for the fog to clear before pursuing the chase.

"Hahaha------I am King Wei Rong, I am the king! Hahaha------" A strange laughter came from the depths of the fog, it was undoubtedly Wei Nu! Wei Duo

The friend held the Sky-Moon Sword and touched it step by step in the direction where the laughter came from.

The laughter came closer and closer, and I saw slave Kui with disheveled hair and a face covered in filth, but he was wearing a golden armor, singing and dancing like a madman.

"It seems like this guy is crazy!" Young Master He asked Wei Duoyou in a low voice: "What should we do? Should we kill him?"

"No need!" Wei Duoyou took back the Sky-Moon Sword and said in a deep voice: "For a person who is obsessed with power, living like this is ten thousand times more uncomfortable than death. But King Zhi will hate him to the core, so it is better to kill him

Being escorted to Wu Ending and left to the disposal of King Zhi Yu can be regarded as a sign of our sincerity in defending our country and making peace with Wu Ending!"

"Wonderful!" Young Master He praised: "Brother Duoyou, this expedition is all due to your strength. He Wuzhu and Ping Weinu have taken the greatest credit. When I return to Chaoge, I will definitely give you a title. Look.

Who dares to say more?"

"That's all!" Wei Duoyou waved his hand: "Young master, please go back first, I have to go to Wuwen to finalize the peace talks and trade!"

"He'er——, I miss you so much for my mother!"

"Mother, my son is back!"

Outside the back hall of Wei Palace, Mrs. Li ignored the exhaustion of standing for half a day and took her son who had returned from a long journey into her arms. She looked up and down with tearful eyes. Although Wei He went to Haojing for a longer time,

But this time leading the troops to go on an expedition was very dangerous. She was worried every day and couldn't bear to eat for more than two months. Now she was finally looking forward to the return of her beloved son. How could she not be happy?

Eleven-year-old Wei He is still a teenager at heart. He excitedly and impatiently told his mother about the highlights of the expedition: "Mom, you don't know, my son thought that this expedition would be a fierce battle, and his life or death was uncertain.

. Unexpectedly, Brother Duoyou had already instigated the rebellion of various units in Wei Rong, and Wei Nu was already the bare commander, and it was so easy to seize the Kai Rong grassland."

There was a smile on Mrs. Li's lips, and her eyes were profound: "Kai Ziliang is indeed a rare general! It's so rare------"

"Isn't it?" Wei He said in high spirits: "The peace is endless, the secret branch is destroyed, and Wei and Rong are pacified - all are due to the power of big brother Duoyou. This time, when he comes back, he will definitely defeat Wei and Rong.

The title given to him by the grassland should at least be the title of a middle-aged doctor------"

"Young Master," Gongsun Yu on the side interjected: "Whether it is a fiefdom or a title, it all requires your Majesty's consent."

"Oh -" Wei He's eyes dimmed: "I understand. It's just that the people of the Kui Rong tribe who have surrendered are not going to be able to lead them without Brother Duoyou."

"That's natural." Mrs. Li said decisively: "Mother understands the power of this. When Wei Ziliang comes back from the north, I will definitely get him the fiefdom and title he deserves. Only with him here can the people of Wei Rong truly surrender.

I defend my country."

After saying that, he sent people to pick up the young master and go to the palace to wash and change clothes. Gongsun Yu saw the opportunity and took a step forward. Mrs. Li whispered: "Not a cent of the land and population gained by He'er's northern expedition will be allowed to the other side."

Gongsun Yu responded: "Don't worry, Mrs. Tai. I have already negotiated with Rongyi to move the northern border people to the grassland. When many friends from Kui return from the north, they will lead the people from the Kui Rong tribe to the south. Such mixed living will affect the land and population of the Kui Rong tribe." Then they will all be integrated into our country. In this way, the young master will expand the territory for our country and make immortal contributions, and he will definitely win the hearts of the people."

"That's very good. I don't think my stepson will be willing to accept it. Please keep an eye on it."

"promise."

"Boom--", the half-man tall brass cauldron was kicked over to the ground, charcoal ash was scattered all over the floor, and also onto the face and body of the stone corner kneeling at the foot of the steps, but he didn't even dare to wipe it. , and did not dare to look up at the furious Wei Communist Bo Jiyu.

"How did you tell me?" Ji Yu walked up and down the Dan steps angrily, his clothes carrying the wind: "You said Wu Zhong and Wei Rong have excellent cavalry, and the guards and 20,000 horses are brought over, that's it. The victory was also a tragic victory, leaving many orphans and widows in the country, and the people were resentful. But what about now?"

He almost jumped down: "Young Master and Da Sheng returned, 20,000 people went out to fight. Not only did they not suffer much loss, they brought back 30,000 Wei Rong volunteers. Twenty thousand plus thirty thousand equals fifty thousand. This group of people and horses are all included." Young Master He's personal followers are armed. Not only has his fiefdom expanded, but he also has 50,000 troops and horses under his command for him to drive. His power is greater than that of the few. There is also ------"

Ji Yu grabbed Shijiao's sleeves angrily and shouted with red eyes: "His Weihe exterminated the Kui slaves, made peace with the country without an end, and kept the northern border of our country without war for at least twenty years. What kind of credit is this? ?This is the contribution of the country. A battle to defend Chaoge allowed him to win the hearts of the people of Chaoge; now he has the support of the entire Weiguo people. Tell me, what kind of bargaining chips can I have with him now? anti?"

"Your Majesty!" Shi Jiao's forehead was about to bleed: "I don't know that Kui Duoyou not only escaped death in the desert, but also organized a rebel army to help Young Master He! For this plan, Your Majesty, you are not yet at the end of your rope, so you still need to cheer up and make long-term plans!"

"A long-term plan?" Ji Yu sneered: "Tell me, how to plan a long-term plan?"

"Your Majesty, although Young Master He is now in power, he is still young and has not yet matured. Your Majesty, you should take care of the most important things first. The rest can be discussed in the long term and considered later."

"The most important thing? What is it?" Ji Yu asked with a frown.

Shijiao said softly: "Your Majesty is already thirty-five years old and has no heirs yet. If Lady Guan Ji gives birth to a prince this time, your Majesty will have an heir, but the Young Master and he are still young, and the rest is unknown. Given time, , the situation is not irreversible!”

Ji Yu understood what he meant and sighed: "It seems that there is only this little hope. I hope God will follow people's wishes!"

"What did you say? Your Majesty promised in person that Guan Ji would be crowned the crown prince upon giving birth to a son?" In another palace, Madam Zhongzi, the Marquis of Wei, listened to the maid's report, with a look of fear in her eyes.

"Yes!" the maid said eagerly: "Madam, you are already thirty-five years old and you don't have a son. Not to mention that Young Master He is now at the peak of his power. But without Young Master He, you have no heirs. This Lord Wei Your position is also in jeopardy! If Guan Ji gives birth to a son this time, your Majesty will definitely make him the heir apparent. A mother is as valuable as her son, and you will be the first to bear the brunt!"

"Didn't you say that the doctor concluded that what was in her belly was a daughter? Where did the prince come from?" Zhongzi grasped the last straw.

"Oh ma'am! As the saying goes, 'You can't tell if you're pregnant.' Whether this is a boy or a girl can only be determined after birth. You can't believe everything the doctor says!"

"What should we do? What should we do?" Zhongzi rubbed his hands nervously: "If that cheap maid gives birth to a son, your Majesty will definitely depose me and make her your legitimate wife, in the name of your true son. At that time, Song

I can't go back to my country, and my cousin wants me to die; there is no place for me in the country of Wei, so that cheap maid will definitely try to get rid of me. What should I do?"

He couldn't go back to his mother's family, and couldn't stay in his husband's family. Ever since Guan Ji was pregnant and favored, Zhongzi couldn't sleep well every night. He was so scared that he bit the quilt and cried at night. When will such days end? What should I do?

When the maid saw this, she was also sad and advised softly: "Madam, don't be afraid. After all, isn't she still pregnant? When the child falls to the ground, it may be that she is actually a daughter!"

"Maybe, I hope God will have mercy on me!" Zhongzi's words were extremely desolate. How did she end up in such a situation? She has no family to rely on and no heirs to rely on. This is her tragedy!

As Guan Ji's "due date" approaches day by day, in sharp contrast to Zhong Zi's nervousness and fear, Mrs. Li becomes more relaxed day by day. She counts the days day by day, thinking silently in her heart: When the baby is born, it is time to close the net.

It’s not just Wei Boyu who falls into the net, but also the Shi family! She wants to completely uproot Ji Yu’s power in the Wei Kingdom!

Chaoge Wei Palace, the ruins of Lutai where Su Daji sang and danced two hundred years ago, what everyone is eagerly awaiting now is the news of Guan Ji's birth. Whether it is Wei Boyu who is full of expectations, or Mrs. Li Tai who has ulterior motives,

In both the government and the public, everyone's attention was focused on Guan Ji's growing belly. Everyone knew that once a boy was born, he would become the crown prince of the Wei Kingdom, and no one could stop this.

Waiting and waiting, half a month has passed, and Guan Ji's belly is still high, showing no sign of falling down. Wei Boyu was so anxious that his lips blistered, so he simply stayed in Guan Ji's palace day and night.

Although it is known to everyone that the stepmother and son Wei Wei and Mrs. Li are inseparable in appearance, but the superficial article still needs to be done. Not to mention greetings every day, Wei Boyu still takes his wife Zhongzi to the aunt's palace every three or five days.

In greetings.

The interior of the six-couplet palace is extremely spacious, and the sun shines through the windows, and it is foggy, as if there is a layer of clouds. The gentle breeze blows, and the golden bell hanging under the verandah trembles slightly, and its sound is like beads and jade, which shocks everyone around.

Seeing Wei Yu and Zhong Zi frowning and looking worried, Mrs. Li was very unhappy: "If you don't want to come to say hello, then don't come. Now that you are here, you all frowned and looked reluctant.

Are you and your wife here to wish me well? Or are you here to cause trouble?"
