The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 727 Zhang Ru gave birth
Time flows.

There was no large-scale war in Yongzhou.

It would be easy for the Three Routes of the Great Song Dynasty to deal with the rebellious troops scattered in various villages.

After Zhang Hongwei took Temo Road, he continued to go south, and took Rendong, which is located in the southernmost part of Yongzhou.

When Miao Cheng arrived in Yongzhou, he went southwest along the Zuojiang River and pacified all the villages along the way.The villages were beaten so hard that they didn't dare to take the lead, and they surrendered one after another.

Surrendering now is no longer as simple as it used to be.They will dismiss the private soldiers, and the entire Yongzhou will be truly taken over by the Song army.

Jun Tianfang sent Zhao Dongting and his party straight to Jingjiang Mansion, and then returned to Hengshan Village.

Liu Hongyi, Jiedu and transfer envoy Wang Yinglin, supervisor Mu Kangxun and others set up a banquet in the transfer envoy's office to receive Zhao Dongting.

But Zhao Dongting only stayed at the gate of the city for a while, and after telling Wang Yinglin and others to deal with the follow-up matters in Yongzhou, he continued northward without even entering the Jingjiang Mansion.

Counting the time, it is almost time for Zhang Ru to give birth.He really is racing against the clock all the time.

He didn't want him to be by his side when his woman was giving birth.

From Hengshan Village to Changsha City, it is more than a thousand miles away.According to the normal itinerary of this era, it must take nearly 20 days.

However, Zhao Dongting traveled day and night, rushing to the outside of Changsha on the tenth day.

This is the real journey of a hundred miles a day.

There were more than a dozen war horses that died of exhaustion in the middle of the journey.

Zhao Dongting was only accompanied by Hong Wutian and Yunjing, while Kumano, Yue Yue and many priests from the Shadow Palace were left far behind.

At this moment, among the imperial palaces in Changsha City, Zhao Dongting's bedroom was very lively.

Many court ladies hurriedly shuttled outside.

Doctor An and other imperial doctors, as well as midwives, add up to dozens of people, and they are all on standby outside.A midwife had already entered Zhang Ru's room.

Concubine Yang Shu was naturally here at this time, her face was full of nervousness.

This Zhang Ruhuai is the first princess or prince of Song Dynasty.Whether it is for the Great Song Sheji or the Great Song royal family, this is a great event.

It's a pity that Zhao Dongting hasn't rushed back yet.

Even Concubine Yang Shu couldn't help but complain that Zhao Dongting failed to fulfill her promise to Zhang Ru.

These days, Zhang Ru has been looking forward to it, she has seen it all.

And women have so much pain in childbirth, she has experienced it herself, and she knows it well.

Ying Er, who was beside Concubine Yang Shu, was also restless, looking out of the courtyard from time to time with her beautiful eyes.

She is undoubtedly looking forward to Zhao Dongting's appearance here.It is also conceivable that Zhang Ru in the room must be looking forward to it even more.

But everyone felt that the hope of Zhao Dongting's return was extremely slim.

More than ten days ago, there was a letter from the army to the palace, and the emperor and Deputy Zhang led the army just outside Hengshan Village.

Although there was a large army to win immediately, the news of King Guang's death spread to the palace.But counting the time, the emperor will not be able to come back in time, right?
In the room, Zhang Ru's cry began to sound.

There was great pain in this cry.

This even made Ying'er's pretty face pale slightly, she bit her lip and looked at her swollen belly, as if she was a little scared.

Since last night, Zhang Ru has already started having seizures, and now it seems that she is about to give birth.

Concubine Yang Shu couldn't sit still any longer, she stood up abruptly, and paced back and forth in the courtyard.

Not long after, a court lady came out of the house with a golden basin.In the basin is bloody water.

Concubine Yang Shu hurried up and asked, "How's it going?"

The maid just shook her head, with sweat stains on her forehead.

These court ladies are all virgins, so it is obvious that Zhang Ru is about to give birth now, and whether it is going well.

Just the blood dripping in their hands was enough to make them flustered.

"Ugh!"

Concubine Yang Shu stomped her feet in distress, but there was nothing she could do.

However, this kind of eagerness also made her temporarily look away from the heartache of Zhao Bing's death.

The bedroom seemed to be very busy.

Outside the city, Zhao Dongting, Yun Jing, and Hong Wutian finally appeared at the gate of the city.

And the moment the horse galloped to the gate of the city, Zhao Dongting's horse stumbled and fell to the ground.

Zhao Dongting was travel-stained and tired, almost rolled to the ground.It was hard to stabilize his figure.

He didn't care about revealing his identity, he actually asked the soldiers guarding the city gate: "Has Concubine Jing given birth?"

The guards were a little dazed.

Yun Jingchi rode to the side, got off the horse, and took out a token from his cuff, "The emperor is here in person, why don't you answer quickly!"

On the token in her hand, the five-clawed golden dragon gleamed.

The soldiers were dumbfounded.

Then quickly knelt down on the ground, first kowtowed, and then said: "Report to the emperor, the villain does not know!"

All the soldiers at the city gate fell to their knees.

The people and businessmen who were entering and leaving here were all dumbfounded, and then they all knelt down on the ground in panic.

Zhao Dongting seemed to have a feeling in his heart, he didn't care about other things, and ran into the city.

He even exhibited the leisurely pace, this kind of figure naturally amazed countless people.

Probably none of these common people thought that the emperor's military strength was so amazing.

Yunjing and Hong Wutian hurriedly followed.

The three of them left their horses and shuttled at an extremely fast speed on the crowded streets of Changsha City.

Zhao Dongting's eyes were full of anxiety and anticipation.

Counting the due date, Zhang Ru is now five days past the due date.He didn't know what was going on with Zhang Ru now.

It stands to reason that if Zhang Ru goes into labor smoothly, the whole city should know the news.

But now, none of the guards had heard the good news, so it could only mean that Zhang Ru hadn't given birth yet.

Zhao Dongting had never had a child in his previous or this life, so it was obviously impossible for him to say that he was not worried or anxious.

At this moment, the city of Changsha is full of prosperity, which cannot be seen by him anymore.

Within the territory of Yongzhou.

Zhang Jue's left, middle, and right armies were all divided into dozens of units, and they had put down all the villages in Yongzhou that participated in the rebellion four days ago.

Now, they are gathered in the three cities of Temodao, Hengshanzhai and Yongzhou respectively.

Sure enough, Zhang Hongwei failed to spot Yu Linglong, Chen Yizhong and the others.

Under Wang Yinglin's order, Xiang troops in Yizhou, Binzhou, Hengzhou, Qinzhou and other places next to Yongzhou transported grain to Yongzhou.

At the same time, Zhang Hongwei, Miao Cheng, Zhang Jue and others also bought grain in Yongzhou.

If the army wants to attack Dali before Dali has time to react, the most important thing is that soldiers are precious and fast.Zhang Jue understood this very well.

On this day, he sent a letter to Yongzhou, ordering Miao Cheng to quickly lead the army to the west and send troops to Dali.

At the same time, there was also a letter sent to Hengshanzhai, asking Zhang Hongwei to lead the army first, as a vanguard, to break through the border of Dali.

This is the first time that Song Dynasty initiated a war on its own initiative.

Changsha City.

Only a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Dongting appeared outside the palace.

His face was covered with dust, so hard that the guards guarding the palace couldn't recognize him.

Zhao Dongting rushed in directly.

Immediately the guards raised their Shenlong guns and were about to shoot.

Fortunately, Hong Wutian followed behind Zhao Dongting and shouted loudly: "Don't shoot, this is the emperor!"

The guards were a little confused.

Then think about it, the appearance of this person just now seems to be a bit like the emperor.

When Zhao Dongting was in the palace, he would go out of the palace to inspect various government offices from time to time. These imperial guards saw him quite a few times, and they were deeply impressed.

In this way, at least the Shenlong Gun was put down.

Hong Wutian also rushed into the palace.

After Tou Yunjing caught up and revealed Zhao Dongting's identity again, the guards were in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, there was no time to shoot just now, otherwise, if the emperor was injured, the matter would be serious.

As for killing the emperor, they didn't even dare to think about that kind of situation.

Along the way, Hong Wutian continued to drink loudly.

The soldiers in the palace who were ordered to wait for Zhao Dongting's news also ran along, shouting at the same time.

All of a sudden.

It was under such circumstances that Zhao Dongting ran outside the bedroom wearing a brocade robe whose original color could no longer be seen.

Still outside the courtyard, he heard Zhang Ru's hoarse cry of pain.

Zhao Dongting's expression suddenly became more tense.

hurried into the yard.

Ying'er turned her head and saw him, her pretty face burst into a beautiful smile, "Your Majesty!"

Concubine Yang Shu also turned her head.

Zhao Dongting went directly to the door of the dormitory, and shouted inside: "Ru'er, I'm back!"

"what……"

The loudest cry of pain rang out.

"Born, born!"

"Wow……"

There was chaos in the bedroom.

There was a cry of surprise from the midwife.

There is also the cry of a baby being born.
