Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 100 Preparations before leaving
Duguying belongs to the lineage of Dugushan, and Dugushan is the second son of Duguxin.In terms of seniority, Dugu Sheng is Duguying's uncle.

"I heard that you had a daughter last year. I haven't had time to congratulate you yet."

Inside the room, Dugu Sheng and Dugu Ying sat facing each other on their knees.

Dugu Ying poured tea for Dugu Sheng, said with a smile, "It's just a daughter's house, it's not worthy of my uncle's congratulations."

"What's wrong with my daughter's family? My Dugu family has had three queens, so my daughter's family has to teach me well." Dugu Sheng said.

"Yes." Duguying agreed with a smile, he never thought about letting his daughter enter the palace in the future.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Dugu Sheng said, "I'm here to bring you good news."

"What good news?"

"See for yourself." Dugu Sheng took out the transfer paperwork.

After reading it, Duguying was very puzzled.

"Why did the official department suddenly transfer me to join the army as a recorder for the Chu Palace?"

"It's not what the officials mean, it's what the Patriarch means." Dugu Sheng sipped his tea lightly.

Homeowner?

Duguying picked up the document and fell into deep thought.

He is not a fool, so he naturally knows that this is not a simple mediocrity.

"Dare to ask uncle, what orders does the Patriarch have?"

Dugu Sheng shook his head, "No."

"No?"

"Well, the Patriarch doesn't have any orders, I just hope that you can do well under the command of the King of Chu, and you don't need to think too much."

Duguying frowned, and told him intuitively that things were not that simple, but Dugusheng's demeanor did not seem to be fake.

"If you don't believe it, you can go to the Patriarch and ask for clarification. However, I want to remind you that the King of Chu will soon be appointed as the grain and grass transshipment envoy of the Shandong Road, and you should follow, so clean it up earlier."

After finishing speaking, Dugu Sheng got up and left, and Dugu Ying naturally sent him out of the mansion all the way.

When she came back, Duguying was still thinking about this matter.

His wife walked out of the inner room and asked, "Alang, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, the imperial court sent me to follow the King of Chu to Shandong Road." After finishing speaking, Duguying helped his wife to sit down, "You just gave birth to a daughter, you need to rest more."

"No problem." Dugu Ying's wife said, "Is it dangerous to go to Shandong Road this time?"

"It's just an escort of food, there is no danger."

"That's fine."

Duguying nodded absent-mindedly, holding the appointment paperwork for a long time without saying a word.

After thinking about it, he still didn't dare to go to the Patriarch to ask for clarification, but went to the Ministry of Officials silently to handle the follow-up matters of the transfer.

Qin Wangfu.

Li Shimin sat silently in his seat.

Fang Qiao, Yu Zhining, Changsun Wuji, Wei Yuanzheng and others took care of Li Gui's expedition, so he didn't need to think too much.

However, there are some things that keep him stuck in his heart.

"Your Highness seems to have something on his mind recently." Fang Qiao had read countless people, and she could see through Li Shimin's heart at a glance.

Changsun Wuji shuddered, and said, "It should be about the matter of King Chu, so His Highness should remember it."

Yu Zhining gently put down the document, glanced at King Qin who was not far away, and said in a low voice: "In my opinion, Your Highness should be thinking about the prince."

Fang Qiao and Changsun Wuji glanced at him.

Fang Qiao gently pressed the thin book with her palm, her eyes drooped slightly.

"Chen Xiangfang entered the center, and it is inevitable that he will be a little uncomfortable. After a long time, His Highness will feel much more at ease."

Changsun Wuji and Yu Zhining nodded.

They planned to push Chen Shuda into the prime minister, not just as a display.

After a while, Li Shimin called everyone together.

"You all talk about how to take down Li Gui."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, offering advice one after another.

In fact, they all knew that there were two ghosts in Xiliang, An Xinggui and An Xiuren, as long as Tang Jun made no mistakes, he was [-]% sure of taking down Li Gui.

After discussing for a while, Li Shimin summed up everyone's opinions and determined the action plan.

After everyone went down to perform their duties, Changsun Wuji stayed behind.

"Your Highness is still thinking about King Chu?"

"Ah."

In front of his uncle, Li Shimin had nothing to hide. He sighed: "What Zhiyun said is what I think in my heart. It would be great if I could get closer to Zhiyun."

Of the four brothers, he didn't have much idea about the eldest brother, and he didn't even want to think about King Qi.

Changsun Wuji said: "Your Highness, don't worry, if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. The crown prince wants to assist the sage in handling state affairs, so he will never lead the army himself."

After thinking about it, Li Shimin nodded, "You are right."

Some things cannot be rushed, but need to be done properly.

After Changsun Wuji left, Li Shimin got up and went to the inner room.

Princess Qin has a big belly and is about to give birth, so she can only lie on the couch to rest.

"Erro, what's wrong?"

"Why do you ask that?" Li Shimin sat on the edge of the couch with his palms on Changsun's belly, feeling the movement of the fetus.

"Your thoughts are written on your face." Changsun said with a smile.

As a couple, no one knows her husband better than her.

Li Shimin smiled wryly, "Is it so obvious?"

Changsun waved his hand, dismissed the serving maids, and said, "Actually, it's not obvious, but the concubine can see it. But is there any difficulty in going out?"

Li Shimin shook his head, "Li Gui is nothing to worry about."

"Then why?"

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: "Some time ago, I planned to ask Zhiyun to talk about the conquest of Li Gui, but the crown prince also happened to find Zhiyun, so it has not been possible until now. I will go to the expedition soon , I don’t know when I will have a chance.”

Changsun's eyelids drooped slightly, and he sighed, "It's just a coincidence. I planned to spend more time with Princess Chu after Erlang went to war. After all, King Chu is also going to go to war. The concubine and Princess Chu also have a companion for each other, but now they are about to give birth. , I'm afraid it won't work."

Li Shimin gently held her jade hand and said, "Let's talk about it later."

"Ah."

After a pause, Li Shimin said guiltily, "I don't know when I'll be back when I'm going to conquer Li Gui this time. I hope my son can wait for me."

"What are you waiting for?" Changsun said playfully, "I have been tortured by this little guy for a long time, and I hope that he will be born soon."

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help smiling, and hugged his wife, and the two enjoyed the rare peace.

And in Chu Wangfu, Li Zhiyun was also explaining things to his two wives.We are about to go on an expedition, so we have to say goodbye anyway.

Miss Yin is already showing her pregnancy. Although her belly is not as big as Princess Qin's, it has begun to bulge slightly.She can baby her own belly now, and she doesn't need to be reminded by others, so she should be careful everywhere.

"You take good care of your baby in the mansion, and tell the princess if you lack anything. This king has already asked her to take good care of you."

"Yes." Miss Yin agreed with a low eyebrow.

Immediately, Li Zhiyun looked at the main palace.

"Miss, this trip to Xiangzhou, all along the way are Datang Prefectures and counties, there is no danger, you can rest assured."

Yang nodded lightly, "I understand, the king doesn't have to worry about the palace, he can just serve the country with peace of mind. Auntie in the palace, my concubine will go to pay her respects every day."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"This is what concubines should do."

Seeing this, Li Zhiyun also felt slightly amused.Generally speaking, when outsiders were present, Goddess Yang acted like a real goddess and would not play around with him.

Therefore, most of the slaves and women in the mansion are in awe of Princess Chu.
