Chapter 357 Parting ways (Part 2)
After Shu'er said goodbye to King Zhao, he disguised himself and traveled slowly, quietly passing through the Song Dynasty, and within a month returned to Anyi on the shore of the Chushui River.
Yan Xiao, Zhao Qi, Su Yang, Su Liu, Yan Qing, Yan Xiu and others arranged the county prince's palace very well. Zhao Qi, Su Yang and Su Liu often traveled between Chu and Song, and had done a lot of business.
All the money made was hidden in the basement of the county prince's palace.
Although Anyi Hou Dongfang Sui is still young, he handles all official documents and military affairs very quickly, and everything is meticulous and there is never any mistake.
When Shu'er stepped into the mansion, Dongfang Sui happened to come back from the military camp outside the city, and shouted at Shu'er's back: "Sister, you are back!"
Shu'er turned around and saw that his younger brother had become thinner and taller, so he smiled tiredly: "Young master, your wings have grown hard. Why don't you bow quickly when you see King Anyi?"
Dongfang Sui walked quickly to Shu'er. When Shu'er raised her head slightly, she suddenly realized that her younger brother had grown taller than her. Dongfang Sui had a rare serious look on his face and said worriedly: "Why did you run from Xiling to Yudu again?
It took you so long to come back? King Song... As long as you nod, I will immediately lead my troops to kill him in Yudu and kill him on the spot!"
Seeing that Shu'er didn't answer, Dongfang Sui had to ask again: "I heard that you are pregnant with a child, can your body still handle it?"
Shu'er smiled and said: "When I was in the Song Dynasty, I disguised myself all the way and went to many medical clinics. All the doctors said that my body was fine and the fetus in my belly was very strong. If you are worried, go and find a baby for my sister.
A reliable doctor is here."
Dongfang Sui immediately clasped his fists and said, "I obey the order of the Prince of Anyi County!" After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave the mansion to seek medical treatment when he heard another person say: "Master Marquis, it is better not to go there in person. I will just go and take care of the woman."
"The person who came was none other than Yan Xiao.
Yan Xiao stepped forward, took Shu'er's hand, and couldn't help but blushing: "You have been pregnant for a long time, but you are still so skinny and not round at all! Since you are back, you are not allowed to go anywhere anymore, stay
You can raise your baby with peace of mind in the mansion, you know? The people in the mansion are all carefully selected by us. Your food and daily life are all taken care of by me and Yan Qing, Yan Xiu, and no one else will be allowed to interfere, so you can rest assured, don’t
If you have too many worries, you just need to get up early and go to bed early every day, and take plenty of nourishment.”
Shu'er nodded frequently, and just as he was about to interrupt Yan Xiao's nagging, Yan Xiao had already let go of Shu'er's hand: "I'll go and invite the best doctor in the city for you."
Shu'er held Yan Xiao's hand again: "Can you please Aunt Yan to invite more doctors? It's best to make a big fanfare and let everyone know that King Anyi of Chu State is pregnant with King Song's child. With the current power of King Song and Chu State,
In such a situation, no one from Song or Chu would dare to harm the child in my belly."
Yan Xiao thought for a moment and asked: "What about the old people of Qi Wei and Chen Shu? You married the King of Qi in Zichuan, which was witnessed by the Allied Forces of the Four Nations. Now that the King of Qi is nowhere to be seen, but you are pregnant with the King of Song's child, you will
Aren't you afraid that the old people from the Four Kingdoms will come to kill King Song's children if they can't kill him?"
Shu'er waved his hand carelessly and said: "If I hadn't exchanged my life for it, the Allied forces of the four countries would have been buried in the southern suburbs of Jade City. Not to mention that they owed me more than one life and two lives, and they would not come against my children.
To lay a vicious blow, let's just say that now that the Allied forces of the four countries have followed the King of Shu out of Jinyang Pass, threatening to cross the desert and destroy the Rongren Wolf Division in one fell swoop, how can they still have idle soldiers who have come all the way to the Chu Kingdom to plot against them?
An unborn child?”
When Yan Xiao heard this, he relaxed and went out to ask for a doctor for King Anyi.
Shu'er only rested in his residence for less than three days. He had already seen ten famous doctors, and they all said that the fetus was stable and there was nothing to worry about. The news that Dongfang Shu, the king of Anyi, was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the king of Song, spread throughout the Chu country.
Shu'er originally wanted to ignore what was going on outside the window and focus on raising the baby. However, at dinner time that day, he received an urgent letter from the King of Chu. The letter was in Shu'er's handwriting and was not signed. At a glance, he knew it was Lin.
Written by Ying herself
The spring in Kyushu is warm and flowers are blooming, and the desert is thousands of miles away and the wind is blowing fiercely.
Before the allied forces arrived at Wolf City, the King of Shu fought against a thousand cavalry alone.
No blade of grass can inherit the blood of a hero, and there will never be a sword fool in the world.
Invite you to come back to Zhaohuang Hall, and together we will put on silk cloth to offer sacrifices to our old friend.
…
After reading it, I was stunned for a moment.
The King of Shu fights against a thousand cavalry alone... and there will never be a sword fool in the world?
Obviously not long ago, they briefly met in the White Jade Palace...
Dongfang Sui saw Shu'er's expression was different, so he put down his chopsticks and asked, "What did His Highness write?"
Shu'er frowned: "The King of Shu led his troops west out of Jinyang Pass, but before they arrived at Wolf City in Mobei, the Allied Forces encountered an unexpected incident, and the King of Shu... died on the battlefield. Your Highness invites us to return to Linjiang to serve the Allied Forces of the Four Nations and Shu
His Royal Highness will hold a ceremony."
Dongfang Zui said calmly: "Actually, I heard about this in the military camp a few days ago, but I was afraid that you would be sad, so I didn't let anyone tell you. With the current relationship between Chu and Song, the Song Dynasty has not yet done anything about the death of the King of Shu.
"Reaction, if Your Highness holds a grand ceremony for the Allied Forces of the Four Nations before the Song Kingdom, wouldn't it be a blatant provocation to the Song Kingdom? I thought His Highness would not do this. I really don't know what he wants to do."
Shu'er asked: "If you were the current King of Chu, would you hold a grand ceremony for the Allied Forces of the Four Nations and His Highness the King of Shu?"
Dongfang Sui thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes."
Shu'er asked again: "Then why shouldn't your cousin hold this ceremony?"
Dongfang Sui replied: "Because my cousin is playing the role of a cowardly King of Chu who is afraid of the Song Dynasty. He holds a ceremony, which is not in line with the cowardly role he plays. If I were the King of Chu, I would not be afraid of the Song Dynasty, and I would naturally come to the Song Dynasty for us."
The four-nation allied forces of the country held a grand ceremony."
Shu'er said: "You seem to have an inaccurate understanding of the role played by the current King of Chu. He is not playing a coward, but a fool. A coward is just a coward, and a coward can also plot everything and make every move.
But fools are different. They don’t know right or wrong at all, and do whatever they want. If you were the king of Song, would the king of the neighboring country be a coward or a fool, and who would be more able to make you relax your vigilance?"
Dongfang Sui suddenly realized, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Lin is indeed very smart! He holds a grand ceremony for the Allied Forces of the Four Nations, but it can make him look not only stupid and lustful, but also stupid! In this way, the King of Song will definitely be more relaxed about our Chu country.
Be vigilant. Brother Lin really acted very well, very well!"
Shu'er was confused: "When did you become so close to His Highness? Aren't you always dismissive of his intelligence?"
Dongfang Sui coughed and said harshly: "I'm always looking for talents, and there is no end to my learning! He only plays some tricks, but some subtle tricks can also be learned occasionally."
Shu'er said: "Then let's set off for Linjiang early tomorrow morning."
Dongfang Sui was about to nod, but suddenly shook his head: "You go, I won't go. If the Song State wants to attack our Chu State, Anyi County on the shore of the Chu River will be a battleground for military strategists. Your Highness will leave me in An
Yi, even when you led troops to reinforce Zhao, he didn't let me go with you because he valued my general ability and secretly asked me to guard Song here."
Shu'er couldn't help but chuckle: "Your talent as a general? Why didn't I see it?"
