For some reason, a faint smile appeared on my pale face at this time.
It is not the first time I have been misunderstood and humiliated like this. If I had to argue at the beginning and seek justice for myself, now facing these rumors, I can only be indifferent and indifferent, or more calm.
Although rumors hurt people, I actually think that the more people hurt are those who make verbal confusion themselves.
The only thing I feel sad is Wen Fengxi.
Perhaps for a warrior like him, he would rather die in battle when the city was broken and be wrapped in a body of horses than be insulted like this, but it was me who pushed him to such a storm.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh.
When Hua Zhu heard me sighing, she became even more nervous. She thought I was angry after listening to those words, and was afraid that my bad mood would affect the fetus. She hurriedly said, "Ms. Yan, don't listen to those words. There is no reason to say to such people. You might as well go back and rest quickly."
I nodded.
She and the maids hurriedly helped me back to the previous building, but just as they walked back, they heard a quarrel coming from a room.
"Why do you want to let the people in Yangzhou go?!"
My brows frowned.
This is the voice of Xie Houqi.
He seems to be questioning?
However, the other person in the room did not speak. After a brief silence, Xie Houqi said coldly: "Is it just for that woman?"
"In her belly, I have my child."
Pei Yuanxiu's voice was very low. Although he was questioned, he didn't seem to hear any displeasure from his voice. He just stated this matter calmly. Xie Houqi also remained silent for a while before he said, "You are just for a child-?"
"That's my child!"
As soon as this sentence was spoken, no one seemed to be able to refute anything.
But Xie Houqi was unwilling to give up and said, "But we agreed in advance. Now that you let the people in Yangzhou go, what should we do in Yangzhou City?"
"Don't worry, I will not lose anything that I promised to you. Anyway, over the years, you have also understood that the prosperity of Yangzhou will be as long as the world falls into my hands, what will happen to Yangzhou City back then and what will happen to the future."
"I'm afraid that you will ruin big things if you are so kind."
"Soft-hearted and ruthless? Do you think I am such a person?"
Even Xie Houqi was asked as if he was asked. His breath sank for a moment before saying: "Anyway, don't forget what you promised me. The people in Shengjing are staring at Yangzhou. We choose to support you because the person sitting on the dragon throne now did not comply with the promises made by his father back then, deposed the untouchables in Yangzhou, and took back all those who should have been to Shengjing. I hope you don't be like him, otherwise-"
Before he finished speaking, he heard Pei Yuanxiu's faint voice: "You don't have to warn me, or you don't have to remind me."
“…”
"I know more than anyone else what I should do, and I don't need anyone to remind me; I won't do something because of threats from others!"
Xie Houqi didn't say anything, obviously he was blocked by his words.
Pei Yuanxiu said calmly and coldly: "I still say the same thing, I should give you what I should give you. You will naturally get it when the time comes, but the way I do things will not be bothered by others."
Xie Houqi didn't say anything for a long time, but he seemed unwilling to be robbed by him like this. After a while of silence, he gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll ask you, when are you planning to go north?"
“…”
"You have been staying in Yangzhou for several days."
“…”
"If the city was massacred, Yangzhou would not have to worry about it at all. It would be enough to leave a small number of people to guard it, or to migrate some of your people from Jinling. But now, we have to call out other people to guard Yangzhou, right?"
“…”
"And that woman, she is pregnant, do you still have to take her north?"
"She is pregnant with my child, so of course she has to follow me."
"You can't let her stay here-"
"No!" This time, he had no room for negotiation and said firmly: "She must be by my side."
Xie Hou paused for a moment and said, "But she will delay our trip!"
“…”
"It's already January. If you don't arrive in the capital before April, you can't join the troops of Shengjing. I can tell you that I finally prepared those troops. If April is over—"
"You don't have to worry."
Pei Yuanxiu said calmly but confidently: "We can arrive in the capital in March at the latest."
"Okay, that's what you said!"
He probably felt a little breathful, and after saying this, he walked out.
My heart sank and I hurried to the stairs. I heard him walking out of the room, closing the door heavily, and then walking away.
I didn't stop anymore, but walked up the building with heavy steps.
After just back to the room, Pei Yuanxiu pushed the door open and came in.
His face was not very good-looking, probably because he had not had a good rest these days, and he was a little pale and his eyes were a little red. But as soon as he saw me sitting by the window looking outside, he immediately came over and closed the window: "Don't blow the air like this, it will catch a cold."
I said, "I'm fine."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he sneezes.
He frowned: "Look at you!"
After saying that, I immediately took my hand. I shrank for a moment, but couldn't retract. I could only let him grab my hand and pull me to the edge of the bed and sit down, and immediately called the doctor outside.
These people probably couldn't stay around day and night, and they arrived as soon as they called, and they were all trembling, afraid that I would have something else that they couldn't solve. But after taking the pulse, I found that there was no disease, so I immediately boiled ginger soup to sniff me and poured it on steam. I was sweating all over and was getting better.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Speaking of which, it is difficult for people to get better when they are sick, and sometimes it is difficult to really make themselves sick.
The doctors stared at me nervously day and night, and could not make any mistakes. Although the fetus was still not stable, the body was not seriously injured.
I was taking a nap that day, and Pei Yuanxiu was sitting in this room reading a book.
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
I was sleeping lightly, and with him in this room, I couldn't rest assured that I could not help but wake up as soon as the door was pushed open, but I didn't move immediately. Instead, I opened a thread of eyes and looked outside through the bed curtain.
It was Han Ruoshi who walked in.
Pei Yuanxiu turned around and saw that it was her. He put the book in his hand on the table. Han Ruoshi walked up to him: "Husband."
"What's the matter if you poem?"
"My husband has delayed the departure time for several days."
“…”
"The people below dare not say anything more, but my husband, the most important thing is."
"They dare not say anything, so they came to tell you?"
"Husband, I know that my husband has his own considerations in his work and will not be influenced by others. But this time, my husband is clearly influenced by her."
She said, turning her head to look on the bed.
Pei Yuanxiu frowned slightly and looked here.
The two of them were silent for a moment, and Pei Yuanxiu said in a deep voice: "If you have something to say, just say it."
But Han Ruoshi did not speak immediately, but stood in front of him and lowered her head. After a while, she said hoarsely: "I know it's not good for me. I haven't been able to give birth to a child for my husband after so long. Now Miss Yan is pregnant with her husband's child. Her husband loves her very much and is very careful about this child. I understand."
Pei Yuanxiu stood up and said, "Ruoshi..."
"But my husband, I still have to say that big things are the most important."
“…”
"This time, my husband let the people in Yangzhou go for her. The soldiers have already complained. According to the original plan, we should set out three days ago to head north, but we have not set off yet, and the soldiers do not understand, but those who sent troops in Jinling will not understand."
“…”
"Husband, they are all waiting for the results of our victory."
“…”
"Husband, it's rare for people to be in the hearts of people. If the morale of the army below disperses and the people in Jinling gets in chaos, this battle will be difficult to fight."
“…”
"Have you forgotten your ambitions?"
Pei Yuanxiu's eyebrows were twisted together. He had a rare moment of such a dilemma. When he looked at Han Ruoshi, his eyes flashed slightly: "Ruoshi... I know you are thinking about me, but--"
"Husband," Han Ruoshi interrupted his words and said softly: "I met my husband back then, knew what happened to him, and also knew the great ambitions in his heart. From that time on, I was determined to help my husband ascend to the throne even if I devoted my life to the best of my life. We have planned for so many years and everything goes well, and now we are just waiting to meet in the capital. If my husband is soft-hearted at this time, it will be a waste of the mountain Jiurengong, and half of my life's hard work will be wasted."
“…”
"Please make plans early!"
Pei Yuanxiu was silent for a while, finally sighed and said, "I know what you want."
“…”
"Okay, let those doctors come over to take the pulse later. As long as her body is not seriously damaged and the fetus is stable, we will set out tomorrow."
When Han Ruoshi heard this, she immediately laughed, smiling like a flower: "Okay!"
When she turned around and left, Pei Yuanxiu stood in the middle of the room, looking at me who had been lying still on the bed, and sighed softly.
I buried my face deeper into the quilt.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, just after I got up, the doctors came to the room one after another. Pei Yuanxiu said, "They will take your pulse as usual."
I nodded, sat down at the table, placed my right hand on the table, and immediately someone covered my wrist with a thin silk squid.
One of the largest doctors in the grade walked up tremblingly, possessed himself and accused him of his crime, and then touched my pulse with his fingers.
I was wearing a wide robe, and my left hand naturally hung down.
After the doctor's diagnosis for a while, his gray eyebrows twitched slightly.
