Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 738 The Pride of the Country (3 More)
The next day, Wen Wan almost got out of bed with Song Wei. After sending the man away, she changed her clothes and went to Changning Hou Mansion.

Zhao Xunyin saw that she came here without breakfast, so she asked someone to prepare it.

Lu Yanli was still asleep, Zhao Xunyin didn't let anyone wake him up.

Wen Wan ate breakfast with her parents, and then followed them into the palace to meet Emperor Guangxi.

When they arrived at Qianqing Palace, Emperor Guangxi had just coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the handkerchief that Eunuch Cui sent out was stained a shocking red.

Zhao Xunyin's heart twitched, "Your Majesty..."

Eunuch Cui didn't respond, just sighed helplessly, and asked the little eunuch to take out the handkerchief and deal with it.

Zhao Xunyin and Lu Xingzhou looked at each other, the couple took their daughter, stepped into the palace gate, and walked for a while to the inner hall.

The hall is resplendent and resplendent, with overlapping veils, but it can't stop the pungent smell of bitter medicine.

"Brother Huang." Zhao Xunyin called softly.

There was a whoo-hoo sound from Emperor Guangxi's throat, followed by a thin, weak voice, "Fanghua is here?"

Zhao Xunyin choked up, already knowing that Emperor Guangxi's condition was hopeless, so she didn't ask him how he was today, and tried to smile, "Bring Wanwan to see uncle."

"Girl Wan..." Emperor Guangxi seemed to be smiling happily, but because of his serious illness, the laughter sounded a bit creepy.

Wen Wan stepped forward and kneeled on the ground, "Uncle, Wan Wan has come to see you."

Through the heavy veils, she actually couldn't see clearly the sick Emperor Guangxi on the dragon couch, but it was not difficult to judge from the voice that the people inside had collapsed beyond recognition.

Wen Wan got up and wanted to go in, but was stopped by Zhao Xunyin, who silently shook her head.

Lu Xingzhou also gave her a wink, intending to tell her not to go.

Eunuch Cui saw it and said nothing.

Emperor Guangxi seemed to say something in it.

The sound was so low that no one outside could hear it.

Eunuch Cui immediately went in to listen, and came out soon, letting Lu Xingzhou in, it should be about sending troops.

Zhao Xunyin and Wen Wan stayed outside.

Taking advantage of no one, she asked softly, "Mom, why didn't you let me in?"

Zhao Xunyin said: "Your uncle is very ill, your body is weak and weak, if you pass the illness, you will not recover."

"If it will be infected, I should have a hunch before entering the palace." Wen Wan still insisted on going in.

Zhao Xunyin froze and stopped him.

It's not that she's really afraid that Wen Wan will be infected, but that she will leave a bad impression when she sees Emperor Guangxi's skinny appearance.

When they were in Ningzhou, their husband and wife met many villagers. One family's old lady was sick, and the couple took Lu Yanli to visit. The little guy was frightened and had nightmares for several days after returning.

The mother refused to let her go, so Wen Wan had to wait outside with her.

Lu Xingzhou came out not long after he entered, and said to Wen Wan, "Your uncle is very happy that you can visit him."

"Then, did he let me in?" Wen Wan asked.

"No." Lu Xingzhou shook his head, and said, "There's no need to go in, as long as it's what you want."

Wen Wan thought, the emperor's uncle was probably too seriously ill, and her parents didn't want her to see that scene with her own eyes, so they stopped being stubborn, chatted casually and followed Lu Xingzhou and his wife out of the palace.

After the family of three left, Eunuch Cui reported to Emperor Guangxi, "Your Majesty, Duan Concubine escaped from the Leng Palace last night, and she wants to come to Qianqing Palace to face the saint no matter what."

Emperor Guangxi closed his eyes, and snorted softly when he heard the words, "Isn't the title already abolished, where is the empress?"

Eunuch Cui hurriedly slapped his tongue, "I was so quick to talk, I forgot that Shuren Liang has been abolished."

Glancing at Emperor Xi's face again, he asked cautiously, "How does Your Majesty plan to deal with her?"

Emperor Guangxi asked back, "What do you think should be done?"

"Oh, Your Majesty is making this old slave difficult." Eunuch Cui begged for mercy, "This old slave is just an errand runner, how could he make such a big decision for His Majesty?"

Emperor Guangxi stopped his voice, his breath was long and even, as if he had fallen asleep.

Eunuch Cui tucked the quilt for him, and was about to retreat silently, when Emperor Guangxi said: "Keep locked up until she has white hair and all her teeth fall out. If she is alive, let her out of the palace."

Eunuch Cui couldn't help shivering.

This is probably the cruelest punishment in the world.

Isolate a person from the world for decades and then release her, let her see with her own eyes how time has passed and things have changed outside, and let her feel the deepest and most desperate loneliness in the world.

Eunuch Cui entered the palace as an eunuch when he was a teenager. He didn't understand romance, let alone what kind of feelings Emperor Guangxi had for that person, but he knew that Emperor Guangxi was really disappointed to the extreme this time.

……

In five days, Lu Xingzhou ordered the generals he wanted to appoint, and assembled 40 troops from the Xishan Camp, Dongcheng Camp, and provincial guards, plus hundreds of beasts prepared by the Divine Soldiers. After offering sacrifices to the flag, they were ready to go .

Song Wei and his wife took Jinbao to the gate of the city to see them off.

Zhao Xunyin had already dragged Lu Yanli to wait there, and when she saw Wen Wan, she smiled and waved.

Wen Wan walked over and asked her in a low voice, "Mother, did Dad listen to me and bring an extra military doctor?"

"Bring it." Zhao Xunyin said: "Can he not listen to my daughter's words?"

"That's good." Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

The mother and daughter were chatting casually, and after a while, they heard the neat and magnificent sound of horseshoes coming from a distance.

Turning her head gently, she saw a vast expanse of soldiers in armor sitting on horseback.

The upright figure in the front was Lu Xingzhou, who was wearing a red gold armor densely embellished with steel stars, and behind him were two soldiers holding high the national flag of Chu.

Seeing her husband, Zhao Xunyin took her son and went to greet him.

Lu Xingzhou raised his hand to stop the army. He got off his horse, looked at his wife and children with a warm smile on his face, "No need to send them off, go back and wait for me to come back."

What Zhao Xunyin wanted to say, Lu Xingzhou said again, "The people in Northern Xinjiang can't afford to wait, I have to leave immediately."

Zhao Xunyin had no choice but to swallow back the words of parting, and told Song Wei and Wen Wan to turn around after saying take care.

Lu Xingzhou watched the few people go away, then got on his horse again, waved at the back of his wife and children, then resolutely looked away, and rode out of the city.

Wen Wan and the others returned to the carriage, they did not leave in a hurry, but watched the army go out of the city. There were many people watching like them, all of them came for the mechanism beast.

The Shenbing Division has an underground warehouse with a very large area, which is specially used to store finished machine beasts.

And these mechanism beasts are usually invisible, and will only be released during wars.

Right now there is a lion-shaped walking towards this side. As the leader, it should be the biggest one, more than three feet high, just enough to pass through the city gate. Every time you take a step, you can feel the floor shaking, and follow behind Its size is much smaller, but it is very sensitive. It looks complicated in shape, but in fact it is full of organs, which can be used for sneak attack, offense, and defense. It is also non-slip in such heavy snow weather.

Every time one came over, the people on both sides of the road would exclaim one after another, with a sense of pride for the country and the pride of the country.

Such a spectacular scene, even Wen Wan's blood was surging.

Indeed, on this continent, Chu State may not be the most powerful country, but it was the first country to mass-produce mechanical beasts and put them on the battlefield.

This alone is enough to make the people of Chu State proud and proud of it, and it is enough to make them believe that the soldiers of Chu State are capable of guarding the frontier and giving them a peaceful and prosperous world.

The trust of the people is undoubtedly the greatest encouragement to the soldiers.

The soldiers walking on both sides of the mechanism beast are all full of energy, and their steps are uniform, all of which show that they are well-trained on weekdays.

Wen Wan sighed: "The ancestors of the Liu family who researched the mechanism beast back then must have never imagined that not only will his hard work not be wiped out hundreds of years later, but he will become a peerless soldier on the battlefield, and he will always be in the hearts of the people of Chu State. pride."

Zhao Xunyin agreed very much, "That ancestor is indeed great, and his name should be remembered by future generations."

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at Song Wei.

Song Wei immediately reacted, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will go to Shushu after I go back and ask His Royal Highness Prince Zuo to write a monument for the ancestors of the Liu family."

……

After Lu Xingzhou went north, the New Year was getting closer and closer.

The Tongji Society was annihilated, and the spectacular scene of hundreds of thousands of troops and hundreds of organ beasts marching up gave the people a lot of confidence. Today's market is no longer as sparse and depressed as it used to be, and it is full of vitality and the taste of the new year.

On New Year's Eve, Zhao Xunyin got up early, and someone from the Lu family sent a message the day before, asking her to go to the Duke's mansion for a reunion dinner today. I heard Cardamom come in and say: "Princess, the second young master is back."
