Chapter 798: Initiative
After Du Jinger returned to the Yinggeyuan, she told Xiao Ying everything that happened with Han Xi.
Xiao Ying felt a little sorry for Du Jing'er. She was born with a golden spoon in her mouth. The young lady from the General's Mansion grew up by her parents and brothers since she was young. It was her disaster that she met Han Xi. This disaster was so painful. The Du family lost everything, and eventually Du's mother died of illness. The whole family's love turned into hatred, and she was deeply impregnated in Du Jing'er's already scarred heart. What happened afterwards completely tore Du Jing'er apart.
She is now alive because she is grateful to Xiao Ying for saving her life. She wants to repay her kindness.
But if she was allowed to regain love, it would be more painful than letting her live.
Feng Ge discussed political affairs with Lou Xiang and others in the small study next door.
Xiao Ying reached out to stop Du Jing'er and asked her to sit next to her. Then she gently wrapped her arm around her and asked softly: "Did Han Xi's surrender make you embarrassed?" Du Jing'er shook her head: "He went against Han Gu, but I felt very happy, but I just felt happy for a moment. What happened could not be changed, and my mother would not be resurrected from the dead. My whole family regarded me as a beast, and this would never change.
I just regard everything I have experienced as fate's punishment. Because I trust him, the entire Du family has been implicated. I am willing to be punished, no matter how painful it is, I will not complain. But I really can't bear the slightest love to Han Xi. Empress, don't you think I'm useless, right?"
"Silly girl, how could I think you are useless! I feel sorry for you... I think Han Xi really has a regret. I will not force you to accept him. If it were me, I would never accept him. If you really don't want to see him, I will solve it for you."
Du Jinger shook her head.
She knew that Han Xi was a capable person. With Han Xi's help, there were more possibilities for victory in the fight with Qiguo.
Qiguo Han Gu is her real enemy. She will not destroy Xiao Ying because of her unwillingness. She has understood Xiao Ying's kindness. It is her greatest blessing in her life to meet Xiao Ying. "No need. I am in the inner palace, and I will not see him even if I am Qingyi. I don't want anything now. I just want to be by my side, watching the Empress give birth to a little prince with peace of mind, and then watching the little prince grow up. If I can defeat Han Gu this time, I will be avenged. I really have no worries in Qiguo."
"It must be. It was the dispute that Emperor Qi initiated first. If I, Feng, didn't ask for an explanation, Emperor Qi would definitely think that I, Feng, could be bullied. Your Du family has been loyal for generations, and Emperor Qi seized the military power of the Du family because of suspicion. Such a narrow-minded person is not worthy of the loyalty of the Du family." "The empress is right. I couldn't figure it out before, and I felt that it was really unreasonable to be seized for no reason. But now I have figured it out... This is not bad. Just as the empress said, Emperor Qi provoked a dispute, and this time it was difficult to be good. If my father is still alive, he must wear armor to fight. Even if he knows that he has no chance of winning, he cannot retreat. Thinking about it this way, even if he loses power, he can save his life."
"Jing'er, you are becoming more and more transparent. I have always been worried that you will be stubborn and will get stuck in the wrong place. I don't have to worry about it anymore, you will never give up your life lightly."
"Don't worry, I will never do stupid things anymore."
Knowing Du Jinger's thoughts, Xiao Ying finally felt relieved. Even if Du Jinger said that it was not easy for Han Xi to see her, but in fact the initiative was still in Du Jinger's hands. As for the future of the two, Xiao Ying did not want to interfere.
If the two are destined to be together and have gone through everything, they may be able to start over again.
If the two are not successful, Xiao Ying will support it no matter what decision Du Jinger makes. Du Jinger is a rare girl in this world who Xiao Ying admires a little.
After more than ten days, the entire emperor felt a sense of panic. It was not that the enemy was approaching, but that the queen had a full term baby and could give birth at any time. Even the morning tribute to Feng Ge came and went in a hurry.
The court officials could also guess why the emperor was in a hurry.
In order not to provoke the emperor, everyone learned their lessons. They could be as short as possible. They would never write three sentences that could be explained clearly in one sentence.
The original pile of inexplicable letters of pleading have disappeared.
Although no one spoke up, everyone seemed to be waiting for something...
Xiao Ying was not anxious. As the saying goes, the child would naturally start when he was about to have a child. It would be better to keep her in her belly for one more day. Since he talked with Feng Ge that day, his anxiety seemed to have improved, at least in front of Xiao Ying, he was less anxious. He could sleep well even if he hugged her at night.
Han Xi has followed Yun Chi these days. According to Yun Chi, the prince of Qi is a good at military affairs.
Yun Chi simply handed over the full power of training the Iron Uniform Guard to Han Xi.
Han Xi asked Yun Chi to send a message several times, but Du Jing'er refused. Yun Chi also felt that Du Jing'er was ambitious, and she praised Xiao Ying with vision several times in private. Whether she was a maid or a subordinate, she was very useful.
I don’t know what Yun Chi said to Han Xi behind his back. In recent days, Han Xi has finally become quiet. He no longer rushes to see Du Jing'er, but instead chooses the Iron Guard. After lunch, Feng Ge was taking a nap with Xiao Ying. There were a few folds piled beside Feng Ge, and Xiao Ying was lying on the inside, feeling a little drowsy.
At this moment, Xilai picked up the curtain and came in.
He carefully approached Feng Ge's ear and said a few words. Feng Ge raised his eyebrows slightly, and Xiao Ying's sleepiness was interrupted. She rubbed her eyes and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"It has disturbed you. Nothing big is happening. It's just that Emperor Qi has the trust of the country."
Now Xiao Ying became interested and sat up and listened with interest.
"Emperor Qi asked us what we were going to do? Fengqi and Qi had no relationship. We were planning to invade Qiguo on the bank of Tongjiang with such a big fanfare. Although Qiguo is small, he will not be afraid..."
Feng Ge flipped through the letter of the country and picked up important retellings to Xiao Ying.
"The Emperor Qi is scared."
"Yeah. I'm a little trembling. But he respects his small Qiguo too much. Even if I give it to me for free, I have to consider whether to collect it." Qiguo has a lot of water and a large area and a sparse population. The total population of the country is not as big as that of the Feng family. In Feng Ge's opinion, there is nothing to be planned for.
Even if Emperor Qi took the lead in surrendering, Feng Ge had to consider whether to accept it or not.
He didn't want to spend a lot of money every year to support the people of Qiguo.
"Didn't ask Han Xi?"
Feng Ge shook his head. "From the beginning to the end, no word was mentioned." This Qi Guo was cold-blooded. Feng Ge had already sent someone to send a letter of nationality to tell the truth about Han Xi's capture, but Emperor Qi never responded. After waiting for several days, he replied such a letter of nationality that was incompatible with each other.
"What is the fifth brother planning to respond?"
Feng Ge threw the letter of the country back to the hands of the father-in-law Xi.
Then he gently helped Xiao Ying lie down again. "...I won't respond."
If there is anything to respond, the letter of nationality he sent was not responded to. Now he feels that the situation is serious, and he is guilty of being a thief, so he first sent such a letter of nationality questioning.
Does anyone who speaks louder will make sense? The reason why Tongjiang stationed troops and made a big move was to tell Han Gu that he knew everything. The things that happened back then could not be concealed. At this time, Han Gu did not want to calm down, and wanted to occupy the commanding heights of morality and denounce the Feng family.
What a stupid way.
I don’t know who gave Han Gu the idea, so I really should have pulled it out and hit the eighty-fourth board.
"The fifth brother is not afraid that Emperor Qi will criticize the Feng family for being arrogant and provoked for no reason."
"Let him say that when something like this, fists are the bottom line."
Xiao Ying: "..." She has said countless jokes, and Feng Ge can always learn and apply them. This ability is also amazing.
"Tell Lord Yun, let him send some additional personnel to Tongguan. It would be better to make the momentum bigger." Xilai took the order to pass on the message.
"Is the fifth brother going to have a psychological war with Qiguo?"
"There is no condition for the time being, so you can't let him live a better life. I've heard you talk about the enemy's soldiers without fighting. This method is very clever. This time we will play with Emperor Qi... and make him live a life with fear every day. You also said that there is an emperor there, and that as long as you dare to invade his territory, you will lead troops to kill them no matter how far away.
I also want to say something. Those who dare to offend our Feng clan will be punished even if they are far away."
That was what Emperor Wu of Han said.
The two occasionally talk about the history of their respective worlds.
Xiao Ying was left behind after hearing this, but Feng Ge could find something worthy of his reference.
Xiao Ying looked at the young emperor talking beside her and felt proud. This man who was handsome and whispered to the point of offending Feng's family was her man. Although the voice was light, Xiao Ying knew that every word Feng Ge said would be done.
"Well. I believe that Brother Fifth can do it. I will accompany Brother Fifth. My fifth brother will watch Feng's stronger family..."
As she was talking, Xiao Ying suddenly felt a heat in her belly.
She blinked and thought to herself... the baby was actually excited, and couldn't wait to come out.
Feng Ge noticed Xiao Ying’s abnormality. “What’s wrong?”
"Fifth Brother, the child is probably coming out..." Feng Ge's expression changed drastically, and the calmness and confidence that had been the moment before disappeared. He seemed a little panicked.
"A Ying, does it hurt?"
"...It hurts a little. Brother Fifth, don't worry."
If you don’t worry, how could you not worry? After ten months of worry, today we finally ushered in the judgment of fate. Feng Ge called someone to invite Wenpo and the imperial physician, while letting Xiao Ying lie down. "Why are you going to give birth suddenly? What do you think? Does it hurt so much?"
The domineering emperor turned into a chatterbox. Xiao Ying forced a smile.
Her lower abdomen began to twist and hurt. But she could still bear it. "The melon is ripe, and it's time to go. Perhaps our child also heard the earth-shaking vows just now. So we can't wait to come out and see our father."
Xiao Ying was actually in the mood to joke.
But Feng Ge looked at the wetness leaching from Xiao Ying's forehead, how could he not see that she was comforting him?
His little girl is always so heartwarming. Even if she hurts her so much, she has to pretend to be fine.
Shi He said that ten months of pregnancy was successful, only half of it. The birth of a child was the most difficult hurdle. "He made you feel so painful. When he was born, I will definitely hit him a few times to vent your anger." "You are not allowed to hit me. I have only gained such a treasure after my life. If I dare to touch him, I will definitely turn against you." The pain worsened. Xiao Ying inhaleed and spoke nonsense to Feng Ge to divert attention.
"Where is the man? Where is Shihe?"
Feng Ge looked back and shouted.
The next moment, Shihe didn't care about reporting, picked up the curtain and rushed into the house a few steps.
He took Xiao Ying's pulse first, and his brows slowly frowned. "The pulse is quite peaceful... Let's move to the side hall."
"No need. It's here." When moving at this time, Xiao Ying must be in pain. Shi He was a little surprised when he heard this: "The blood room is unclean. I'm afraid the empress gave birth here..." "Nothing is afraid. It's here. Let's use a curtain to surround it... Wen Po rolls in quickly."
As expected, several stable ladies rolled in in a ball. This was the birth of the queen. The first time in this life... If there was a situation, I would be unable to protect my life.
But this is also an honor that ordinary people cannot meet. If they can welcome the little prince safely, what is waiting for them will be a lot of silver rewards.
Wenpo didn't care whether it was suitable for having children or not. The emperor said it was OK, and Wenpo quickly divided the work and cooperated. Some commanded the maids to hang the curtains.
Some people ask for boiling water to prepare things.
Everyone was busy.
Shi He retreated to the yard.
Feng Ge continued to stay in the house and kept holding Xiao Ying's hand.
Silent encouragement.
The pain came, and Xiao Ying finally couldn't hold it back and exhaled in pain.
"It hurts a lot?"
"...It doesn't hurt very much. Brother Fifth, go out." Feng Ge shook his head: "I'm here." Xiao Ying smiled and finally shook her head. "I don't want you to stay here. It's too ugly to have a baby. I don't want Brother Fifth to leave a psychological shadow. You go outside and wait... Good Brother Fifth, go outside and wait."
To be continued...
