Soldiers come to the world

_up;

In Chengdu Zhoumu Mansion, Tao Zhan came to Sun Shangxiang's yard as usual. Since Jiang Dong came back, Sun Shangxiang began to change. He felt chest tightness and retching from time to time. After the doctor's diagnosis, as expected, Sun Shangxiang was finally pregnant.

This is a major event in the Liu family. Tao Zhan immediately rearranged Sun Shangxiang's courtyard and placed her in the Qilin courtyard adjacent to him for easy care. Not only that, Tao Zhan also persuaded Liu Jing to send someone to Jiangdong to announce the good news to Sun Shangxiang's mother.

Tao Zhan was very thoughtful and took good care of Sun Shangxiang. However, there was one thing that she finally showed her tough side as Liu Jing's wife, and that was her attitude towards Cai Shaoyu. Get any title.

Tao Zhan's attitude was very clear. Cai Shaoyu was Liu Jing's second sister-in-law, and Liu Cong was still in Yedu. She is a concubine, which will be a major blow to Liu Jing's reputation.

She knew that her husband was soft-hearted in some respects, and would accept Cai Shaoyu in a moment of confusion, but Tao Zhan was not confused. Before, she just didn't mention this matter for the sake of Liu Jing's face. As time went by, when Liu Jing finally calmed down At that time, Tao Zhan made it clear that she firmly opposed Liu Jing accepting Cai Shaoyu as a concubine, her attitude was very tough, and there was no room for negotiation.

This has been a ritual since ancient times. A man can have a good time outside, but if he wants to bring a woman into the house, he must get his wife's consent.

It was Tao Zhan's strong opposition that finally forced Liu Jing to temporarily dismiss the idea of ​​taking Cai Shaoyu as a concubine, so he could only comfort Cai Shaoyu with good words, let her live with peace of mind, and will give her an explanation in the future.

When Tao Zhan walked into the yard, he heard Sun Shangxiang yelling in a fit of temper, "When will this damned retching end?"

Tao Zhan smiled knowingly. Sun Shangxiang's pregnancy reaction was very serious. With her personality, of course it was unbearable, but women have this test, so it's good to get over it. She walked into the room and said with a smile: "Why? Well, I seem to be in a bad mood today!"

Sun Shangxiang was half lying on the couch, when she saw Tao Zhan coming in, she sat up quickly, frowned and said, "It's only been more than an hour since I woke up in the morning, and I've already retched four times."

As soon as she said this, she suddenly covered her mouth and rushed behind the screen, retching, two maids hurried over with basins, after a while, Sun Shangxiang rinsed her mouth, then helped the maids to walk back slowly, with a pale face Huang was depressed, and Tao Zhan quickly helped her to sit down and handed her hot tea. After a long while, Sun Shangxiang sighed and said, "I have never experienced this kind of pain since I was a child. I knew that childbirth is so painful." , I'm not looking forward to it!"

Tao Zhan comforted her with a smile and said, "It's all here. When I gave birth to a child, my reaction was worse than yours now. I struggled during the day and woke up many times at night. Now I feel scared when I think about it."

"I'm fine at night. I'm basically calm. Even if it's severe in the morning, it will be better in the afternoon. Eldest sister, they said that the retching will stop after three or four months. Is that true?"

"It's nothing more than an old pain, and a new pain comes. After seven or eight months, when sleeping at night is troublesome, I can only lie flat, but! Women have to go through this test. Without the pain of childbearing, it is just There will be no joy in being a mother."

"I just want to give birth tomorrow." Sun Shangxiang muttered softly.

Tao Zhan smiled. At this moment, there were footsteps outside, and Cai Shaoyu asked with a smile in the courtyard, "Shang Xiang, is today better?"

"Sister Cai, please come in!"

Cai Shaoyu walked in quickly, holding a food box in his hand, "I made some porridge for you"

She stopped in her tracks, not expecting that Tao Zhan was also in the room, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed, Tao Zhan said with a smile: "Shaoyu has a heart! He also stewed porridge, I can't think of it, what is it, let me see. "

"It's just a little black-bone chicken and lotus seed porridge, a good recipe for women in Xiangyang to give birth, and it can relieve the reaction."

Cai Shaoyu walked in slowly, put the food box on the table, forced a smile and said, "When did the eldest sister come?"

"I just arrived, Shaoyu, please sit down!"

Although Tao Zhan firmly opposed her husband taking Cai Shaoyu as a concubine, she herself did not dislike Cai Shaoyu and sympathized with her. She sincerely asked Cai Shaoyu to live in the mansion, and Cai Shaoyu had nowhere to go, and Liu Jing still gave her some Hope, she will live in peace.

Tao Zhan's intimacy relieved Cai Shaoyu's embarrassment. She smiled, opened the food box, and handed the porridge bowl to Sun Shangxiang, "Drink it while it's hot!"

Sun Shangxiang drank the porridge slowly, and her mood calmed down. She didn't know that Tao Zhan objected to Liu Jing accepting Cai Shaoyu as a concubine. Let Sun Shangxiang know, but Sun Shangxiang has no city in his chest, and he is careless, so it is easy to talk about it, and spreading it is not good for Liu Jing's reputation.

At this moment, Sun Shangxiang remembered something, and said to Tao Zhan, "The general told me last time that we might move to Chang'an next year. Is that going to happen?"

Tao Zhan smiled slightly, and said softly: "Maybe there is a possibility. The last time he moved to Chengdu, he said that Chengdu was only a temporary residence for a few years. I asked Jia Junshi, and Jia Junshi said that moving to Chang'an in the future is certain. He can't say exactly when, but since the general told you to move next year, it must mean something."

Sun Shangxiang sighed, "I don't like the north, it's too cold."

"Shaoyu, do you want to go to the north?" Tao Zhan turned his head and asked Cai Shaoyu with a smile.

"I?"

Cai Shaoyu hurriedly shook her head, "I don't know!"

After a while, she whispered again: "I have never considered this issue."

At this time, Cai Shaoyu felt a little uncomfortable, so she got up and said, "I'll go back first, you guys talk slowly."

Tao Zhan also smiled at Sun Shangxiang, "I'll go back to see the child too, and I'll chat with you later."

She got up and followed Cai Shaoyu out of the courtyard. Cai Shaoyu understood what Tao Zhan meant, and slowed down. The two of them walked slowly side by side along the willow path.

"Are you angry with me?" Tao Zhan asked lightly.

Cai Shaoyu nodded, then shook his head again, and said with a wry smile: "It's a little bit at first, but it's understandable after thinking about it, after all."

"What do you want to say?" Tao Zhan glanced at her and asked.

Cai Shaoyu sighed and said: "After all, I have married Liu Cong in a glorious way, and the whole city has seen the spectacular wedding scene. This is a mistake I made, and I should bear the consequences left by it, so I figured it out. I can understand your attitude."

"It's good if you can understand. If it's an outsider, I won't object, but it's his cousin, Shaoyu. I hope you can marry a good family and marry again in a prosperous and prosperous way. Do you understand what I mean?"

Cai Shaoyu bit her lip and said nothing, Tao Zhan said again: "Of course, if you don't want to marry and are willing to stay, I welcome you very much, as long as you want to stay, I will treat you as my sister, but I can't guarantee the future. "

Cai Shaoyu nodded, "I understand!"

Speaking of this, Cai Shaoyu laughed again, "Actually, I have also figured it out. As a woman, the biggest hope is to have someone to rely on and a place to live and support. I am very happy living here, and I really don't want to leave , as long as the eldest sister is willing to accommodate me, why should I make trouble for myself, don't worry, eldest sister! I will not mention things that make everyone feel embarrassed."

Tao Zhan nodded with a smile. She was very happy that Cai Shaoyu had such an awareness. She gently took Cai Shaoyu's arm, and the two walked slowly arm in arm, "Shaoyu, I want to change Zhi'er's master. How should I mention this to the general?"

"I think it's best to tell Junshi Jia what you think, and let them come and talk to the general. After all, changing Zhi'er's master is a big deal."

"You're right, but let's wait for him to finish this battle. I don't want to distract him now."

"Sister, when will the general come back?"

"I don't know either, I just hope he can go home and have a look during the New Year."

The two walked away while talking, and gradually walked away.

.......

On the waters of the Yangtze River, a fleet of Han troops composed of [-] thousand-stone ships sailed down the river, heading for Xiakou in a mighty manner, stretching for hundreds of miles, with a magnificent momentum. Army, led by Liu Jing himself.

In the Martial Arts Hall where the big ship was headed, Liu Jing and Sima Yi discussed some specific details of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains in front of the sand table. According to the agreement reached between the Han Army and the Jiangdong Army, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains will start in early October. It's late October, the autumn harvest is over, the weather is getting colder, and there will be half a month at most, and the prelude to the war will slowly begin.

"Judging from the information sent by Jiangdong, the Jiangdong Army's expedition this time was not smooth, and there were great differences among them. It is said that Gu Yong, Yu Fan, Lu Ji and other Wuyue officials firmly opposed the Northern Expedition, and there were also differences within the army. Some veterans headed by Huang Gai also disapprove of the Northern Expedition.”

Speaking of this, Sima Yi sighed, and said again: "I am very worried that the disunity within Jiangdong will affect this Northern Expedition."

But Liu Jing smiled and said: "Don't worry too much. I don't want to gain much in this Northern Expedition. My fundamental purpose is to put pressure on Cao Cao so that he can successfully end his official career in Guanlong. So as long as It is enough for Jiangdong to send troops to contain Cao Cao's forces, as for Jiangdong's victory or defeat, it has little effect on us."

Sima Yi has always had a feeling that Zhou Mu did not fully tell him the true intention of the Northern Expedition, and he only realized many things afterwards, such as the transfer of the four Jingnan counties to Jiangdong, after Sima Yi received the news that Liu Bei unified Jiaozhou , he suddenly realized Liu Jing's foresight.

Even so, he still felt that he had unknown information, such as how to put pressure on Cao Cao in the Central Plains campaign, maybe he could put pressure on if he won, but what if he lost?Especially in Jiangdong, the interior is not stable, and it is going north to the Central Plains to fight against the powerful Cao army. The chance of winning is not great.

However, Zhou Mu's statement seemed to have little effect on Jiangdong's victory or defeat, which made Sima Yi puzzled. He pondered for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking: "How does Zhou Mu's layout in Guanlong be? Tell Weichen?"
