The Adventures of the Crying Princess
Chapter 265 The Emperor's Calculation
The funeral of the old King Su soon came to an end. Su Xiaobei also made time to take care of Bai Yimeng. Yunjiang was rich in products, and there were many rare game that the nobles in the palace had never seen.
After what happened last time, Concubine Su had been particularly attentive to Bai Yimeng since she knew she was pregnant. She prepared all the meals herself, without asking anyone else to do anything. The Dragon Valley Master seemed very satisfied with this, and his opinion of the two Su Masters had changed.
"Xiao Qi, stretch out your hand. Let the master take a look at you." The Dragon Valley Master felt sorry for his disciple and checked his pulse several times a day. "It's been three months now, and the baby is considered stable. Are you feeling any discomfort now?"
Bai Yimeng shook his head, "I'm fine, Master, don't worry about me.
"Master, what should we do this time?" Only when Yuwen Ji was not around did Bai Yimeng dare to express his worries.
"Don't be afraid, Master is here. Master will protect you and the children even at the cost of his life. For now, don't tell anyone about the children's situation.
Just tell others that you have a miscarriage and can't move around. Don't go out for no reason these days, just rest and take care of yourself. In my opinion, you'd better stay in Yunjiangsheng. If you go back to Beijing, you won't be able to bear the bumps along the way."
Bai Yimeng smiled and shook his head, "Master, you promised me, just like last time, if there is any danger, you will protect the child."
Longgu Master sighed, and suddenly looked up and saw Yuwen Ji, and quickly changed the subject, "You, have a good rest and worry less."
After Lord Long left, Yuwen Ji fed her a bowl of chicken soup and picked up the book. "Close your eyes. I will read to you. Just listen and don't think about anything."
Bai Yimeng reached out and grabbed his wrist, "You, heard me, right? This time, my condition is not very good. If the birth happens, there will be danger..."
Yuwen Ji pressed his lips down and gave her a prolonged kiss, "You are overthinking before giving birth. Your children are all blessed and will not cause trouble to their mothers. Peace and happiness are the same, and this is also the case. Close your eyes, and I will read to you."
"Let's go back to Beijing. I miss my child." Bai Yimeng grabbed Yuwen Ji's hand and rubbed her head against him.
Yuwen Ji sighed, smiled and patted her head, "Don't worry, stabilize the fetus first, and wait until you feel better."
Bai Yimeng hugged Yuwen Ji's arm, pulled him to the bed, and held him while reading.
Perhaps it was because Yuwen Ji's voice had a hypnotic effect, or perhaps Bai Yimeng was weak and fell asleep before he finished reading much of the story.
Since that day, after destroying Yueqi's Panlong Matrix, the three brothers of the Bai family took five days to deal with Yueqi's remaining troops. Their commander saw that the situation was not right and fled directly back to Yueqi.
In the past few days, Bai Yinan has been running between the military camp and the Suwang Palace. The army has been reorganized and only needs a vanguard officer to set off.
The fact that Bai Yimeng was pregnant could not be concealed at all. Before Bai Yinan could write a letter to inform Emperor Mingde, the old emperor sent someone to inquire about the situation.
With the arrival of the messenger, Bai Yinan submitted an application for disarmament. This was the result of a discussion between Yuwen Ji and him.
In fact, Emperor Chengde's intention of only allowing the Bai family to go on the expedition this time was obvious.
The three brothers of the Bai family submitted their resignations by the way. The three brothers of the Bai family resigned from the Ministry of War. This is naturally a polite gesture.
It was outrageous not to reward the army but to disarm it after the victory. It would be unreasonable to dismiss the three generals. This move was a retreat to advance. Everyone could see that it was just a formality.
It simply means to tell those in higher positions that the Bai family does not love power.
The messenger came at an unfortunate time, as Bai Yimeng was asleep. Yuwen Ji was unwilling to have his wife disturbed, so he told the messenger directly, "The child is fine, just tell your father this when you go back."
Bai Yimeng was not asleep yet, and sat up when she heard the noise outside the door. When Yuwen Ji entered the room, she pulled him to sit down, "I have always wanted to ask you something."
"Ask." Yuwen Ji lay down and put her head on himself.
"To suppress the rebellion this time, the emperor sent all the Bai family members, and even the army was trained by my eldest brother himself. Although it is not the Bai family army, it is almost the same.
My father said that the capital was in chaos and lacked generals. But I feel like they are trying to reduce the power of our Bai family.
"The Bai family has made continuous military achievements in recent years, and my father should be wary of them. It is normal to suppress them, but I want to know if he wants to use the coalition of five countries to wipe out the Bai family in one fell swoop?"
Yuwen Ji smiled and patted her head. "Don't think too much. We have suppressed them a little, but we won't destroy the Bai family. After all, even if we defeat the coalition of five countries, several small countries around us are ready to make a move. Father will know that."
My father wants to intimidate the Bai family and make them his own, not anyone else's pawn. You are my wife, and your elder brother is the Minister of War. My father is afraid of me.
The rebellion of the Prince of Qi and the Prince of Ying frightened my father. From that time on, he was wary of the princes who had military power, such as me and the crown prince.
You heard it right, my father is afraid of the crown prince. At the beginning of the year, the crown prince forced the emperor to abdicate, and the mystery behind it is intriguing. The crown prince is the heir apparent, and the prince of Qi is obviously deposed, and the prince and he are not a threat. Guess why he forced the emperor to abdicate?"
"Someone drugged him and controlled him. That's why he wrote that letter, saying that he was weak and could be easily bewitched.
It seems that he knew someone had drugged him. Is this person his father? How could a prince of a country be drugged so easily? The people in the East Palace all rely on the prince to get ahead. Killing the prince will not benefit them at all."
Yuwen Ji rubbed her head. "Okay, these things have nothing to do with us. You are pregnant, don't think too much."
Bai Yimeng took his hand away, "You came to the front line, but it's for our Bai family, right? You want... want that position, right?" Bai Yimeng half-propped up his body and looked at Yuwen Ji.
Yuwen Ji pulled the person into his arms and closed his eyes. "Don't think about anything. With me here, no one can bully you."
Yuwen Ji's words were equivalent to answering Bai Yimeng. Bai Yimeng did not ask any more questions and lay in his arms, "I am not afraid of you fighting, but I am worried that we will become like that in the future, respecting each other like guests. It makes me feel sad to hear that."
Yuwen Ji chuckled, "You just think too much. No matter what happened to your father, he never thought of touching you. If you hadn't asked to fight this time, no one would have forced you to come."
Bai Yimeng didn't say anything, she just felt very uncomfortable. Not forcing her to come, letting her three brothers die in the war was the same as forcing her to die.
Seeing Bai Yimeng's worried look, Yuwen Ji regretted saying this to her and rubbed her head. "Your husband will take care of the things outside. Just be a happy pregnant woman and be at ease.
I heard that the reason why the young master of the Su family suspected you of being a fake princess was mainly because you looked too young and I looked too old. When you go back, give me some of the mud you used for facial mask. I don’t want people to say that I look like your father.”
"Don't listen to their nonsense. The prince is not old, it's their eyesight that's bad." Bai Yimeng hugged Yuwen Ji's waist, "Will the emperor cause trouble for you after returning to the capital?"
"Doesn't the emperor always give me trouble? I'm used to it. By the way, there may be a period of time when our Prince Yi's Mansion will be neglected, and I may also lose my job. Also, you may need to restrain yourself when you return.
I know this will make you feel wronged, so let's just be patient until I have dealt with everything, and you can do whatever you want in the future."
"I know, I understand what you're saying. I support you on the path you want to take. No matter what the outcome is, I'll be with you.
Being left out is good, I need to take care of my baby and can’t go anywhere. When the birth was safe and happy, it was a close call, and I was a little scared. It’s good that no one disturbed us, so I can rest assured to take care of my baby. "
Seeing Yuwen Ji's eyes full of worry, Bai Yimeng swallowed the words she wanted to say. She didn't want to upset him at this time.
