Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 228 The eldest son's name is "Chou Chou"

With the determination of the expedition plan, the mission of the Privy Council was increased several times in an instant.

The Privy Council is an institution in charge of the military. Although it is not like the Song Dynasty, civil servants hid behind their backs and manipulated the power of the frontline generals, but they were also responsible for the formulation of strategies and the arrangement and mobilization of expedition generals.

It is inevitable that the three major imperial guards, the guards' pro-army division, the Dianqian division, and the imperial camp division, are the main force. In addition to the forbidden army, other Jiedu envoys and defense envoys need to be allocated to assist.

Originally, whether it was going north or south, there was no reason to mobilize Shu Yuan in Caizhou and Guo Tingzan's troops in Bozhou.

But Luo Youdu didn't hide his selfishness at all, and submitted the names of Shu Yuan and Guo Tingwei openly.

He knows the rules of the game: this kind of selfishness is allowed by the above.

Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde have their own powerful confidantes. If Luo Youdu wants to contain them, and even become a military leader in the future, he needs to have his own strength.

Otherwise, it will only fall into a passive state, which will affect the overall situation.

As long as it doesn't go too far and makes the emperor Guo Rong feel in danger, he won't care, but will give him some support.

After all, Zhao Kuangyin and his father Zhao Hongyin's contacts in the Forbidden Army are well known, and it is impossible for Guo Rong to know nothing about it.

It's just that he believes that he can restrain Zhao Kuangyin, so he doesn't think he will die young.

Sure enough, for Luo Youdu's selfishness.Guo Rong didn't have any resentment, as far as Luo Youdu's background was concerned, it was far more effective to choose Shu Yuan and Guo Tingzhi, who were not to be reused at the moment but had strength, than to dig a little bit to win over veteran generals in the army. Agree to his scheduling.

The assembly of soldiers and horses, the gathering of food and grass from all walks of life.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the war is imminent.

In order to increase the credibility of Nanzheng, Guo Rong specially ordered someone to write a letter to refute Liu Sheng of the Han Dynasty in Lingnan, exposing Liu Sheng's evil deeds one by one, killing fifteen brothers, taking his niece into the harem and other beastly behaviors. There are simply too many books to write.

Except for a few insiders, almost everyone and even the lieutenant generals thought that they would go to Lingnan.

This day, Luo Youdu helped Fu Qing'er for a walk in the backyard.

As the day of the expedition drew near, Fu Qing'er's belly grew bigger day by day.

Then the decline of IQ is directly proportional to the improvement of temper.

In particular, the date of the expedition and the date of childbirth were combined together, which made Fu Qing'er a little worried about gains and losses.

"I don't know if Mr. Lang can wait until after our baby is born before going to war."

Fu Qing'er was worried.

Luo Youdu smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely wait until we witness the birth of our child."

He counted the time.

July [-]th was the time when Luo Youdu learned that Fu Qing'er was pregnant.

This day gave him great shock and joy, and I remember it clearly.

Luo Youdu specially consulted a doctor, and usually the happy pulse can only be felt after two months of pregnancy.

That is to say, Fu Qing'er was conceived in May, calculated based on October of pregnancy, March of the next year is the approximate time of delivery.

Although the time for the expedition has not been determined, the preliminary estimate is between March and April, so that both the enemy and the enemy have enough time for spring plowing.

In this way, while the Zhou army has an extra ration in the territory, they can also harvest their grain in the Khitan territory, killing two birds with one stone.

Fu Qing'er said: "Lang Jun won't be perfunctory to me!"

Luo Youdu gave his beloved wife great tolerance for her temper during this period, "How is it possible, you have to trust your man's precise control of time..."

Just as Luo Youdu expected.

Although Wang Pu and Fan Zhi compromised and agreed to the expedition, they never agreed to mobilize troops before spring plowing.

You have to wait until after the spring plowing, after the people have planted the grain, before letting go.

In order to balance, Guo Rong set the expedition time in April.

March 21, at four o'clock.

Fu Qing'er, who was sleeping, suddenly felt a cramping pain in her abdomen, and woke up her husband who was sleeping beside her.

Luo Youdu realized in an instant that he didn't even care about wearing boots, clothes and socks, and ran out of the room yelling "Wan Po".

Luo Youdu attaches great importance to his children, and invited six experienced stable women to live at home.

The six people were divided into three teams and took turns to rest.

Upon hearing Luo Youdu's call, the two people on duty rushed to the scene immediately.

This is approaching the due date, and hot water is always available at home 24 hours a day.

Luo Youdu was well prepared for all the details of delivery.

But even so, Luo Youdu's heart still kept beating "bang bang bang", almost jumping out of his chest.

This feeling is more exciting than his first time on the battlefield, the first time he saw death.

Luo Youdu kept walking back and forth.

Every time Fu Qing'er screamed in the room, his heart was pulled together.

Luo Youdu has never felt so helpless, even when he crossed over.

"Little husband, it's okay. I've seen this kind of scene a lot."

Huber was comforting, but he didn't realize it himself, and he couldn't speak fluently, with heavy words.

Luo Youdu was even more flustered when he told him.

Until the dark shadow on the sundial in the yard appeared on Maoshi, along with the rising sun, the baby's cry reached Luo Youdu's ears.

Looking at the rays of the rising sun on the door of the house, Luo Youdu's hanging heart finally fell.

After about tea time, a Wen woman surnamed Zhang laughed and came out to ask for the reward: "Congratulations to Mr. Hexi Mr., mother and child are safe and sound. The little son weighs seven and a half catties, and is very healthy!"

"Reward, reward!"

Overjoyed, no matter how frugal she is, she asked Fengzhu girl to reward her.

After asking if he could go in, Luo Youdu strode into the room.

Immediately, a stable woman held a baby and handed it up. Luo Youdu wiped his excited hands on his body, reached out to take it, and took a closer look. There were only two words in his mind, "It's so ugly."

This Nima, like an alien, has a pair of big eyes, crowded facial features, wrinkled skin, and some jaundice.

Luo Youdu almost cried ugly to his son.

Thinking that his mother is obviously a great beauty, and she is not bad, no matter what, she is of an above-average level, but her temperament is very good.

How did such a thing come into being! ! !
Fu Qing'er lay on the bed and said weakly: "Mr. Lang, let me see our child."

Luo Youdu hesitated, and said, "It's better not to!"

Fu Qing'er asked anxiously: "What's the matter? What happened?"

Seeing Fu Qing'er, Luo Youdu was about to cry, and hurriedly said: "It's all right, just take a look!"

Luo Youdu came to the bed with the baby in his arms.

Fu Qing'er looked at her son with a sullen face, she couldn't believe it, and asked, "Is this really born by a concubine?"

She also felt a little disgusted that the baby was too ugly.

Since their pregnancy, the love talk between the couple has become about the future of the child.

Without exception, in their fantasies, whether they are men or women, they must be handsome and handsome boys, or fairies descending to the earth.

Never thought it would be so ugly.

Luo Youdu said seriously: "It shouldn't be wrong."

The inexperienced couple openly questioned the appearance of their child.

After hearing this, the surrounding women were holding back at first, not daring to laugh.

Finally couldn't help it anymore, one of them smiled and said: "Sister, lady, you don't understand. The young master will definitely be a handsome boy in the future, at least his eyes are very beautiful. The baby's skin is naturally wrinkled after being in the amniotic fluid for a long time , there is also a layer of fetal oil, it will heal after a while, and these macular spots will fade away by themselves, and the longer they grow, the more beautiful they will be."

Luo Youdu and Fu Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, both of them had the word "lucky" written in their eyes.

Luo Youdu's heart moved, and he said, "How about calling him Chouchou?"

Fu Qing'er looked at her son who was really unattractive, nodded and said: "I think it's okay."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

"It's not hard!"

Named Chou Chou, the little guy didn't cry, but after eating a mouthful of dog food, he burst into tears instantly.

After another five days, Chou Chou's condition improved a little, and the jaundice subsided, and the fetal oil was absorbed by himself, and his skin looked better.

There is a little difference with the aliens, and now he looks like a little old man.

He's still as ugly as his name suggests.

It was almost April, and the day of the expedition was getting closer and closer.

On this day, Luo Youdu and Wang Pu conducted the last strategic deduction.

Luo Youdu couldn't help asking a question that he wanted to ask a long time ago: "Mr. Wen Bo, what will your son look like when he is born?"

Wang Pu's son was called Wang Yu. Historically, it was he who ridiculed Yang Ye for going to war, causing Yang Ye to be defeated in an ambush by the Liao army, and he did not dare to rescue him, so he died.

A model of a tiger father and dog son, but Wang Yu's appearance is still extremely handsome.

Wang Pu smiled knowingly and said, "It's hard to say!"

Luo Youdu immediately felt relieved.

Zhao house!

Zhao Kuangyin knelt down in front of the bed, held his father's hand, looked at his father who could not get up and said: "My child is about to go to war, this time I must fight back to let the world know that Zhao Jiaerlang will not lose anyone."

Zhao Hongyin said with some excitement in his weakness: "Okay! This is the courage of my son of the Zhao family... Sanlang..."

He glanced at Zhao Kuangyi at the back and said, "You are more thoughtful than Erlang, and you are also more decisive than him. You must assist him and make up for his shortcomings."

Zhao Kuangyi said solemnly: "Father, don't worry, my son understands. My son will not let the opportunity pass by again..."

At the beginning, in order to let his elder brother lead the Dianqian Division earlier, he had already made careful arrangements for Zhang Yongde's weakness.

But inexplicably, whoever made the event of "checking the emperor" directly muddied the calm lake water.

This also greatly increased the risk of Zhao Kuangyi's plan.

Zhang Yongde is not an ordinary person who has been in the Dianqian Division for so long.

If a person is careless, he can be taken advantage of by anyone, but with a guarded heart, it will be extremely difficult to overcome it head-on.

The incident of "checking the emperor" has made Li Chongjin suspect Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhang Yongde is also a little bit wary of Zhao Kuangyin in his heart, and there is a slight crack.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Kuangyi didn't dare to act rashly anymore, and honestly withdrew the arrangement, and he still hasn't found a chance to make a move until today.
