Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 285 Opportunity

Chapter 285 Opportunity
The matter of mango allergy did not cause much trouble. After all, mangoes are limited and the number of people who can eat them is limited, and the consequences are not serious.

But the Princess of Zuocheng County couldn't accept this result, but there was no one to blame. She wanted to eat the mangoes, and the mangoes were rewarded by the emperor.

She smashed things in the room like crazy, "How could this happen? How could this happen?" She couldn't accept it no matter what. She ate mangoes and caused the child to miscarry.

"Someone is harming me, someone is trying to harm me, Your Majesty, someone is trying to harm me!"

Princess Zuocheng was slumped on the ground, her expression crazy and desperate, her voice full of endless resentment and unwillingness, and her hands feebly slapping the ground.

Prince Zuocheng didn't like it. He didn't want to see her except on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month when he had to enter her yard.

Even if they sleep in the same bed on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the two of them may not get along well.

It was a coincidence that she was able to conceive this child. Without this child, trying to conceive again would be even harder than reaching heaven.

"It's just ringworm. Why is the child dead? The quack doctor misled me!" The princess of Zuocheng County found someone to vent her anger on, and she immediately gritted her teeth and roared.

Princess Zuocheng got up from the ground, opened the door, and said to the servant: "Go, bring the doctor over to me."

"Stop!" Prince Zuocheng rushed back to the mansion after hearing the news. What he saw was the mansion doctor being pinned down on a bench and beaten until his flesh and blood were bloody.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he killed our child." Princess Zuocheng complained.

Prince Zuocheng gave her a disgusted look and said, "Take the doctor to his courtyard and find a doctor to look at him. Don't let him die."

"Your Majesty, he is the one who killed our child. We cannot spare him. Beat him to death. Beat him to death." The Princess of Zuocheng County grabbed the sleeve of Prince Zuocheng and said with a ferocious face.

"You vicious woman!" Prince Zuocheng shook her off irritably, "Have you made enough trouble? If you make trouble again, I will send you back to your parents' home right now!"

Wu's father was dismissed from office and the Wu family was already in ruins. Princess Zuocheng immediately fell silent. She could not be sent back to her parents' home. Looking at the face of Prince Zuocheng as cold as ice, she timidly shouted: "Your Highness."

"Lock her up and don't let her go crazy." Prince Zuocheng had no patience for Mrs. Wu.

Prince Zuocheng watched as his mother-in-law held up Mrs. Wu, dragged her back to her room, and left with a puff of sleeves.

Although he had also looked forward to the child in Wu's belly, he did not put too much emotion into it. Now that it is gone, he is not very sad, but this does not prevent him from using the child to act pitiful in front of the emperor.

He also deliberately went to the emperor's confidant eunuch and said, "Without this child, I can feel the heart-wrenching pain of my father when he lost his eldest brother." As he spoke, he beat his chest in an exaggerated way.

Of course the eldest eunuch knew that Prince Zuocheng's words were not meant for him. He looked at the extremely fine jade pendant in his hand, smiled, and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.

He was still willing to help with such a trivial matter.

While serving tea to the emperor, he said casually: "I see that Prince Zuocheng is quite haggard today. It's rare for a legitimate son to be lost like this. How pitiful."

The emperor thought thoughtfully, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said, "Give the pomegranate tree and the two kumquats to Prince Zuocheng."

Prince Zuocheng was overjoyed to receive the reward, but his purpose was not just this. What he really desired was power. From the Eastern Xinjiang side, another battle report came. This time, Daliang was defeated. In order to save Prince Baofu, Hao Shi suffered several arrows and had to retreat to Fulin City. He was besieged by the Dongyi Army and was in urgent need of reinforcements.

In the morning, the emperor looked at the civil and military officials and asked, "What good advice do you have?"

"Your Majesty, Fu Lin is an important border pass for our country. Once it falls, the Dongyi cavalry can march straight in and endanger the hinterland of our country. I believe that troops must be sent to rescue immediately."

"Your Majesty, although soldiers are valuable and quick, they also need strategy. The Dongyi army is good at riding and shooting, and our infantry is difficult to compete with. I suggest that we select elite cavalry and quickly go to support, and at the same time mobilize food and grass to ensure that the frontline soldiers have no worries. "

"I would like to personally take command and lead the troops to Fulin for rescue." Yao Bin came out and said.

Yao Bin's bravery and resourcefulness are second to none in the court. If he personally leads the troops, he can relieve Lin's difficulties. However, Yao Bin is over 40 years old and his old injuries have relapsed in the past few days. After traveling thousands of miles, his body may be in danger. Can't hold it up.

The emperor frowned slightly, "Yao Qing, your body..."

"Your Majesty, my health is not serious." Yao Bin's eyes were firm and he had no intention of shrinking. "Fulin City is in danger. As a military general, I have to step forward. I am willing to guarantee it with my head. Defeat Dongyi and relieve Fu Lin's difficulties."

The emperor was silent for a moment. He knew Yao Bin's loyalty and ability, and also knew the importance of Fulin City.

But Yao Bin's health made him hesitant, but even so, he never thought of sending Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao had already understood his thoughts and did not go out to ask for help.

Prince Zuocheng knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come, "Father, I would like to go with General Yao."

The emperor did not speak, and Prince Zuocheng said sincerely: "Father, as a son of the royal family, I should dedicate myself to the country and be loyal to my father, the court, and the people. Although my son is young, he has been familiar with it since he was a child. I have read military books and know a little about military affairs. Now that the border is in danger, how can I just sit back and ignore it? I am willing to go with General Yao to learn how to retreat from the enemy and relieve my father's worries."

The emperor still liked his son a little bit, "General Yao, what do you think?"

This question has shown his attitude, how could Yao Bin object, "Your Majesty, Prince Zuocheng is young and promising, and he also has unique insights into military affairs. If he can go with the army, he will definitely be able to help me."

"Okay, I will order you two to lead one hundred thousand troops and quickly go to Fulin for rescue." The emperor ordered.

"I obey the decree!" Yao Bin and Prince Zuocheng responded in unison.

The next day, Yao Bin and Prince Zuocheng led an army of 100,000 people and left the city in a mighty manner and headed for Fulin City.

Zhao Wangshu accompanied Yao Shanzhi to the city gate to see him off. Looking at the retreating army, Yao Shanzhi said with a worried look on his face: "My father has not recovered from his old illness. He has traveled a long distance here. I really don't know if he can survive it."

Zhao Wangshu held her hand and comforted her: "Good people have their own destiny. General Yao will be safe and sound. Don't worry too much."

Although Zhao Wangshu's words made sense, Yao Shanzhi still couldn't let it go: "Even so, swords have no eyes on the battlefield, so who can say for sure?"

Zhao Wangshu thought for a while, "How about we go to Wenxin Temple and pray for General Yao and the soldiers. I hope that with the help of Buddha, we can bless them to win the battle, relieve the danger of Fulin City, and return safely."

A glimmer of hope flashed in Yao Shanzhi's eyes, "Okay, then we'll go immediately."
