My concubine is in trouble again

Chapter 74
There are no secrets in the harem, and the news that Lu Meiren is pregnant spreads all over the palaces immediately, and Emperor Yan's enthronement decree has also arrived at the Summer Palace.

Lu Meiren was promoted to Concubine Yi, Emperor Yan probably hadn't had any new heirs for many years, the reward to Concubine Yi this time was so generous that it made other favored concubines jealous with envy.

Yuan Yuan naturally also got the news that Concubine Yi is happy from the mouths of the maids. During the lunch, he carefully observed Yan Huai's expression, and only mentioned this matter in front of him after confirming that he was not sad. Son.

"I have never seen that Concubine Yi. I heard that her eyes are very beautiful? Have you seen Yan Shenzhi? I don't know if the baby she gave birth to is a boy or a girl." It's a bit hard and laborious.

"Did Young Fu not give you homework today?" Yan Huai mentioned her homework irrelevantly, and Yuan Yuan immediately picked up a few ribs and put them in a bowl, looking at him warily.

Yan Huai didn't expect that he just teased her once or twice, and the image in her heart was like a jackal, tiger and leopard, and she started to be wary of him?

"Gu is just asking, why are you so nervous?" Reaching out to grab a piece of crispy meat for her, Yan Huai calmly dispelled Yuanyuan's guard.

Yuan Yuan obviously had a shadow after being deceived by him before, preemptively showing that he was very busy, "Young Fu assigned a lot of homework, if you don't allow me to arrange calligraphy practice again, I will be angry!"

"No, spring hunting in a few days, I will take you to catch little rabbits." It's already mid-February, and Emperor Yan has already arranged for spring hunting in the past few days. As the prince, he naturally wants to participate one of them.

Hearing that she could catch little rabbits, Yuan Yuan stared at him with sparkling eyes. She hasn't been to spring hunting yet!

"Yan Shenzhi, I'm going! I want to eat roast rabbit meat! Roast venison! It must be delicious!"

At the end of February, Emperor Yan led all his ministers and concubines from Yanjing to the royal hunting ground fifty miles away for spring hunting.

Yuan Yuan was catching up on sleep in the tent, the little girl fell asleep after being too excited yesterday, and she set off early this morning, even though she slept in the carriage all morning, she still couldn't cheer up, Yan Huai was worried about her , forced her to rest in the tent, and went to Emperor Yan's big tent by herself.

When Yuan Yuan woke up after a full sleep, Yan Huai had already returned from hunting with Emperor Yan. He had killed two rabbits and three pheasants. Because he was still young, he could not complete the hunting independently for the time being. .

Seeing Yan Huai squatting outside the tent and roasting rabbits with Zhuifeng, the delicious smell made her even more hungry.

"Yan Shenzhi, it smells so good! Is this the rabbit you shot for me? It's so fat!" Yuan Yuan took the ponytail from Tsing Yi and sat down beside Yan Huai.

"Little Highness, don't you know that His Highness showed his skills in front of the ministers this afternoon, and beat two rabbits and three pheasants! It's amazing! The second prince picked up a disease that was injured by someone else's leg." Rabbit, look how happy he is."

Xiao Dezi was very contemptuous of Yanchi's behavior of picking up leaks, but his highness was the one who won the honor.There is no need to pick up other people's.

Yan Huai's achievements are naturally honorable. Although Yan Huai usually bullies others, Yan Huai's excellence is indelible. The original wish is also very proud to answer Xiao Dezi's words, "Of course." , Yan Shenzhi is very powerful!"

"That's right, Your Majesty is giving His Highness a good compliment! And the Grand Duke beat His Highness a little fox today, and said he would make a beautiful scarf from the fox skin for His Highness." Taking advantage of the two The masters are all happy, Xiao Dezi is responsible for the atmosphere of the East Palace, so naturally he has to work hard, and say more pleasant things to make the masters happier.

"Really! Grandpa is amazing! Yan Shenzhi, I'm going to see grandpa to see the fox fur, and keep the rabbit meat for me!" After the original wish was finished, Yan Huai stretched out his hand to grab him.

"The rabbit meat is roasted. After eating, I will take you to find Grandpa Yuan." After finishing speaking, Yan Huai tore off a fat rabbit leg and handed it to Yuan Yuan.

At the moment of delicious food, Yuanyuan compromised without saying a word, and decided without hesitation to finish eating before going to see the fox fur her grandfather made for her.

When she had eaten enough and went to Yuan Zhentian's camp, she was told that Yuan Zhentian had been summoned to the tent by Emperor Yan, but the Duke had left a message. Follow her to see.

The fox fur has just been peeled off from the fox, and it has only been treated briefly. Although the hair is still a little messy, the white hair feels very good, and Yuan Yuan can't put it down to play with it.

"If you like it, Gu will give you a fox next year and make it into a cloak to keep out the cold." Yan Huai reached out and handed the fox fur in her hand to Tsing Yi, leading her back to her tent.

Just walking halfway, Xiao Dezi came over in a hurry, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has an urgent order to order you to go to the big tent immediately."

"Send Xinxin back." Yan Huai handed him over to Zhuifeng, then changed lanes to the big tent, and Xiao Dezi quickly followed.

In the big tent, Emperor Yan sat on the dragon chair with a sullen face, and Yuan Zhentian was standing beside him with an ugly expression, Prime Minister Fu and General Guo were also in the tent, their expressions were very calm.

Yan Huai quickly stepped into the big tent, and first saluted Emperor Yan to say hello, "I have seen my father."

"I have met Your Highness." Yuan Zhentian and others also saluted Yan Huai at the same time.

"Be careful, please sit down first." Emperor Yan heard the heavy panting in the eldest son's words, and knew that he was rushing over, so he asked Hu An to pour tea for him to breathe calmly.

Seeing Yan Huai taking a sip of hot tea, Emperor Yan said slowly, "Bei Ting unilaterally tore up the peace covenant, and suddenly united with several small countries around Dayan to attack our Dayan frontier. Our army was unprepared and lost a whole city." , what do I think this battle should be?"

"Naturally, it's time to fight, regain the lost land, and pacify the Beiting." The safety of the family and the country are at stake, and Yan Huai has always adhered to using violence to control violence against invaders in his heart.

"What my son said is true!" Although Emperor Yan was responding to Yanhuai, what he could see was the direction of Prime Minister Fu and General Guo.

It is not a secret that the crown prince favors martial arts in the court, but Prime Minister Fu, as a civil servant, naturally admires peace as the most important thing, so before Yan Huai came, he proposed to reach a settlement with Beiting to prevent the people in the frontier fortress from suffering from displacement.

"Your Majesty, I still advocate reconciliation. The cold winter has just passed, and the people are preparing to farm. If a war is launched at this time, I am afraid that the people will not survive." Fu Chengxiang is a typical whip. I don't know the pain, and I only talk about the big truths that don't matter.

Emperor Yan had already given up listening to his opinion, and instead asked General Guo, "Does Guo Aiqing think this battle is safe?"

General Guo is also a fierce general who came from the battlefield. Naturally, he knows that the war is dangerous, but putting aside his personal interests, if the barbarians invade, if they don't fight, they will just shrink back, so the day when the country will be destroyed is not far away.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I think this battle must be fought. It may take four or five years to pacify Beiting, but I have the confidence to win Beiting! Your Majesty, please order generals. I am willing to lead an army to conquer Beiting immediately!"
