Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 209 Another Surprise in My Heart

By the way, Ye Chen studied the history and military books such as "Shangshu", "Chunqiu", "Guoyu", "Historical Records", "Hanshu", "Later Hanshu", "Three Kingdoms", "The Analects of Confucius" and so on. read.

Qingyan watched Ye Chen silently write an allusion from the Analects of Confucius, and added her own understanding and analysis by the way, and couldn't help being amazed again.

From the beginning, I was surprised to learn that the characters Ye Chen learned were different from those of the current world, and he couldn't write brush characters. Now I am amazed by Ye Chen's memory and ability to learn by analogy.Yu Qingyan has gradually become numb. As her relationship with Ye Chen became closer and she understood Ye Chen better, he became more and more convinced that Ye Chen really came from outside the world and was really a disciple of a master outside the world.

Seeing that Yu Qingyan felt a little uncomfortable, Ye Chen asked her to go down to rest.Not long after she left, Han Ke'er pushed the door in with hot soup, and before she got close, the soup in the gaiwan was already fragrant.

Ye Chen was tired from reading at this time, so he put down the book.His eyes flicked back and forth between Gaiwan and Qiaolian, thinking about which one to eat first.

He skillfully pulled Han Ke'er to sit on his lap, and put his hands into his arms. I don't know if it's because of his daily nourishment. Han Ke'er's originally slightly slender breasts, which can be held with one hand, seem to have become plump during this period of time. When I got up, even the feel was different.

It's just that Ye Chen pinched it a little, but the delicate body in his arms was suddenly shocked.Quickly let go of his hand, he asked with concern: "Ker, what's wrong with you?"

Han Ke'er cried out in pain: "It hurts."

Ye Chen was a little puzzled, he didn't use much force.Tentatively holding it up again, Han Ke'er gasped again, and frowned her slender eyebrows... Ye Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a possibility.

Ye Chen stretched out his hand and pulled it hard, a round of plump breasts stood up proudly, trembling up and down in the air.

"Alang!"

Han Ke'er let out a scream, and frantically pulled up the half of the lapel that had been pulled open.Blood rushed up, and his face was as red as a ripe apple, scorching hot.Biting his lower lip, he punched Ye Chen a few times with his small fist, and blamed him, "It's daytime..."

Although it was exposed for a while and then covered, Ye Chen, who was paying attention, still found that the color of that spot had indeed become a little darker.

"Ker, are you happy?" Ye Chen immediately asked in surprise.

"Are you happy?" Han Ke'er was in a daze.

Seeing that Han Ke'er was at a loss, Ye Chen changed his question again: "Have you ever felt nauseous recently?"

Han Ke'er nodded: "My concubine vomited once this morning, and I didn't have a good appetite yesterday."

Ye Chen patted his forehead, thinking that there was something wrong with his body, but now it seems that this is not the case.He carefully helped Han Ke'er stand up, and said solemnly: "I need to find a doctor who can cut off the pulse of joy."

Bai Yikun, the vice president of the Imperial Army Hospital of the Great Song Dynasty, is currently the most skilled doctor in Kaifeng City except for the imperial physicians in the palace.But in front of Ye Chen, the dean and benefactor, he never dared to show the profile of a famous doctor in the capital.

With Ye Chen's current status, especially in charge of Tianxia Hospital, as long as he says a word, everything Bai Yikun has now can be lost in an instant.Bai Yikun couldn't carelessly wait on him.

When it was passed on to the Han family, Bai Yikun was also terrified.Han Ke'er, who was waiting for him to check his pulse, didn't dare to look at her more.

Sit on the top chair and breathe evenly, put three fingers on the slender wrist.The touch on the fingertips was smooth, but Bai Yikun didn't dare to have any evil thoughts.

He closed his eyes and felt the beating of the pulse. After a while, he stood up and bowed his hands to Ye Chen, "Congratulations, Lord Hou, Madam is indeed a happy pulse!"

"Really?" It wasn't Ye Chen who spoke, but Yu Qingyan who came over suddenly after receiving the news. She frowned tightly and looked solemn, as if the sky was about to fall.

Asking like this, Yu Qingyan stepped forward unceremoniously to let Bai Yikun get out of the way, grabbed Han Keer's wrist with one hand, and began to feel the pulse.

After a while, Yu Qingyan's face changed slightly, and she murmured to herself: "How is this possible! The master said that Ye Lang's physique is special, and he would never let an ordinary woman get pregnant, and Sister Yu once said something about Xianfan Something else."

Ye Chen didn't ask Yu Qingyan to take his pulse immediately, because he was a little worried that it would irritate Yu Qingyan.It's just that she didn't expect that the girl's mind was always on him, and she knew about such things in the first place.

Bai Yikun was pulled outside by Ye Chen, and the former nodded again as a guarantee, and said, "It's absolutely true."

Ye Chen sealed a generous thank you gift, and asked his servants to give it to Bai Yikun, and asked Ma Gangzi to send the latter outside the mansion.

Ye Chen turned around and found that Yu Qingyan had left, while Han Ke'er was shy and timid, stroking her belly with her hands, and smiling happily.As long as she has a child, her life will be stable, and the unformed little life in her womb is related to her happiness.

Han Ke'er was finally pregnant. With Ye Chen's usual calm and calm attitude, she was uncontrollably overjoyed and slightly inexplicably complicated.

"Be careful in the future, don't get tired." Surrounded by Han Ke'er, Ye Chen felt a little flustered and didn't know what to do.

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, the news that Ye Chen's concubine was pregnant and the news that the Southern Han envoys arrived in Kaifeng quickly spread in Kaifeng City.Hearing that Yehou's family had a happy event, Luo Yaoshun, Wang Chao, Cao Wei, Li Junhao, and Jia Xian all brought gifts to congratulate them.Immediately afterwards, the four chiefs who got the official position because of Ye Chen also came in person and brought important gifts.Zhao Dezhao, king of Wei, also sent gifts.

Ye Chen's family sat down in the main hall, a banquet had been set up, and the next thing was to wait for the New Year's bell.

New year's money was also available in the Northern Song Dynasty, but the Ye family had no grandchildren, so Shui'er and Kou Zhun received a generous red envelope from Ye Chen himself, and happily put it away.

The red envelopes to the servants at home were also handed out. The Xiangfuhou Mansion now has a rich income, and the rewards to the servants are famously generous in Kaifeng City.Dozens of servants and more than 60 guards in the Hou's mansion came up one by one to thank them, and they all smiled happily when they received heavy red envelopes.For those 20 craftsmen, Ye Chen naturally gave them red envelopes, let them go home for the New Year holiday.

The banquet at home was going on lively, because the concubine was happy, Ye Chen was very happy, so he drank a few more glasses, before the New Year's bell rang, Ye Chen was helped to the bedroom by Yu Qingyan in a daze , fell asleep.

Yu Qingyan blushed, and Yu Ye changed Ye Chen's clothes, washed his feet, and wiped his face.Filled with hangover soup.

"Qingyan! Master Hou will leave it to you completely. I'll go first, sister." Yu Ye glanced at Yu Qingyan with a look of iron and steel, and said pointedly.

After Yu Ye left, Yu Qingyan took away the face-changing mask from her face, restored her original stunning appearance, stared blankly at Ye Chen, her face was hesitant, blushing, shy, but in the end she still Sighing, he didn't do anything, and fell asleep beside Ye Chen's bed.

Because Maitreya taught Xiaoming Wang Shangguan Bingyun to hijack Ye Chen in the Southern Tang Dynasty, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangyin was once angered. The lord Li Yu has been panicking about this these days, worried that the Great Song Dynasty would use this as an excuse to use troops against the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, after Li Yu received Zhao Kuangyin's pardon to persuade him to surrender to the Southern Han Dynasty, he was relieved, and at the same time, he began to do this very carefully.

He immediately ordered Pan You to write a letter of persuasion with thousands of characters in length.He wants to take advantage of the generation-to-generation friendship between the Southern Tang and the Southern Han and the friendship between his Li family and the Liu family of the Southern Han for decades to complete this glorious and important mission entrusted to him by Zhao Kuangyin.

This persuasion letter was written with sincerity and eloquence.At the beginning of the letter, he first recalled the close relationship between the two countries over the past few decades, "love is like brothers, friendship between Yi and Dun, worry about sorrows and troubles, and taste the differences". Heart", submit to Song Dynasty as soon as possible.

The reasons listed in this letter for persuading surrender generally fall into the following aspects:
First of all, "Ceding land for mutual benefits, serving people with jade and silk" is a common practice throughout the ages. "Small things are big, and it is reasonable."What's more, the emperor of the Song Dynasty "dedicated to the heroes of the world and lived in Huaxia" was "inheriting the five fortunes and being orthodox, and going to the four directions will be salty." A great country has exhausted its benevolence and righteousness. If it "doesn't move" or even goes against the trend, it will only harm the ancestral temple, the common people, and even the Lord of the Southern Han Dynasty himself.

Secondly, the emperor of the Song Dynasty is the Ming emperor of the world, the holy lord of the ancient times.He once said: "If he treats me with great courtesy, why bother to attack him? If he wants to prosper and fight for the front, he will surely take it as a disaster... The heart of the great court is either profit-seeking or greed, which angers others. It’s just not a guest.” If you make an enemy of the great dynasty, it is really an unidentified act of “disregarding the difference between size and strength” and acting out momentary anger.Today, "the great dynasty promises to communicate well, but refuses to follow", is it for the sake of the country and the community?The great dynasty "teaches the strength of the military and ministers, which is really praised by heaven" "Ascend to the Taihang and attack the Shangdang, and the scholars are not difficult; when the sword pavilion is abandoned, the Yongshu is promoted, and when the service is not submerged, it is known that the power of the great dynasty is unpredictable, and the situation of thousands of miles is difficult to protect. Also. The country is not dangerous in the Jiange, and Yongshu is dead; the army is not stronger than the Shangdang, but the Taihang is not guarded." From this, it can be seen that the Southern Han Dynasty must not compete with the Song Dynasty.

Again, some "officials with good merits and good reputations" in the Southern Han Dynasty "presented the proposal of defending the country and strengthening the country", thinking that "the five mountains are dangerous, the mountains are high and the water is deep, the luggage is not parallel, the soldiers are not lined up, the high fortifications are clear and the fields are cut off. The mountains block the water and shoot with a strong crossbow, so that there is no gain when advancing, and no return when retreating." He also believed that the headquarters of the great dynasty was in the plains.It is said that some people also believed that if they could defeat the Song army, they would achieve supremacy;These are all "Meng Lang's words" that "it is easy to sit down and talk about the way, but it is difficult to do it well". "Thinking about Jinghu, Western Shu, and Northern Han, who were accustomed to mountains and rivers and used to dangers, they all belonged to the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the Southern Han Dynasty and the Song Dynasty bordered each other, and the land and water were on the same road. !"
