Originally, Xiao Ye still thought about having a son safely in Shuzhou, but now Xiao Ye no longer has this free time.
For Xiao Ye, fighting a war is obviously more rewarding than beating a son.
Fighting can not only open up territory and expand territory, but also leave a name in history. It can also wipe out surrounding enemies and lay the foundation of the Chu Kingdom for generations to come.
Of course the little pleasure I get from beating my son is not as good as fighting!
So Xiao Ye quickly started to pack his things, always planning to knock down Japan and Korea.
But Xu Qing stopped Xiao Ye's idea.
Xiao Ye can fight, but not now.
If you want to cross the ocean, you need to build a sea-going ship. The reason why Zhao State is so prosperous is because they have established maritime trade and have rich technology in manufacturing sea-going ships.
Don't think that the ancient Central Plains really always felt that they were closed to the outside world. At this time, foreign trade was quite frequent. For example, Zhou and Chu now have many merchants and Hu Ji from the west.
Some of these orchids come from the Western Regions, and there are also those from further west.
The reason why Zhao State can be so wealthy is that it is impossible to rely only on such a small area in the Central Plains. It has long sold its products overseas.
Zhao's shipbuilding technology is the most developed among the three Central Plains countries. It is undoubtedly the more correct choice to defeat Zhao first to obtain shipbuilding technology.
And Xu Qing can also provide some other technologies, such as transforming galleys into steam ships.
Now the industrial level of Chu State has risen to several levels. Making a steam engine and inventing a steam ship is no longer a dream. If one day we can bring back potato and sweet potato seeds at will, then it will be difficult for China to be short of them in the future.
Food!
Drinking sweet potato roast is no longer a dream.
When the time comes, whoever has made a great contribution will be rewarded with half a catty of sweet potatoes burned.
After hearing Xu Qing's suggestion, Xiao Ye had to temporarily give up his plan to attack Japan at this time, and began to think about Zhao's shipbuilding technology.
Of course, in fact, the underdeveloped shipbuilding industry in Chu State was not the reason why Xu Qing stopped Xiao Ye from attacking Japan.
The real reason why Xu Qing kept Xiao Ye was because he felt that with his hard work day and night, the birth of his next child was not far away.
Xiao Ye shouldn't go out and mess around now, and concentrate on staying with his queen and making a daughter-in-law for his son.
Don't go anywhere.
Of course, the prerequisite is Mingyue and Bing'er's child. If Xue'er becomes pregnant, the baby will be miserable, because Li Xun will have to find a wife by himself because of Li Xun's failure.
The old father couldn't help him arrange it.
Because it is impossible for Xue'er's child to get together with Xiao Ye's child.
Not only is it not allowed by ethics, it is also not allowed by biology.
Li Xun will not stay in Shuzhou for too long. In two days, he will return to Zhou Kingdom and start working hard to attack the Western Regions.
Xiao Ye stayed in Zhao State and stayed with Zheng Waner day and night, looking at the map and deducing in his mind how to quickly attack the Japanese country.
Xiao Ye spent more time studying how to attack Japan than he did studying how to beat his son.
This is not easy for Xiao Ye.
After finishing another day's affairs with Long Bing'er, Xu Qing just walked into the house when he saw Xue'er rushing over.
Xu Qing reached out and hugged Xiao Ruxue: "Don't Xueer have classes today?"
Xiao Ruxue said: "The children have a holiday today."
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue who was not very happy and asked: "The children are on vacation and Xue'er can rest without going to class. Why is Xue'er still so unhappy?"
Xiao Ruxue immediately pursed her lips and said, "After the holiday, they grabbed the playground from me. Husband, husband, I don't have anything to play with anymore."
Xu Qing rubbed Xiao Ruxue's head and said, "It doesn't matter. Ning'er and the three of you won't play with you. My husband will play with you. Tell me what Xueer wants to play. My husband can play with Xueer in the future."
Anything you want to play with.”
When Xiao Ruxue heard Xu Qing's words, she immediately smiled again: "As long as your husband accompanies Xue'er, Xue'er can play anything."
Xu Qing thought for a moment and said, "Then let's play what your husband wants to play."
Xiao Ruxue agreed without even thinking: "Okay! Xue'er can play with whatever husband plays."
As long as she can play with Xu Qing, Xiao Ruxue is willing to do anything.
Everyone else in the family has grown up, but Xiao Ruxue is still not much mentally mature than Ning'er, even though she has been married for so long.
Sometimes when you are happy, you can clap your hands and play.
Now since Xu Qing likes to play, Xiao Ruxue also likes to play
So Xu Qing pulled Xiao Ruxue into her bedroom.
The game Xu Qing wants to play is not suitable for playing outside.
The little girl is so sensible. Every time she asks what to play, she will let her choose.
Xu Qing was very satisfied.
There are many wives in the family, and Xu Qing also wants to get the rain and dew equally. Today he plays with Xue'er, and tomorrow he will play with Bing'er...
Sometimes I am afraid that the little maid will be lonely and cold, so I will go to stay with her.
When it comes to being sensible and obedient, Xuan'er is the most sensible and obedient one.
Do whatever you are told.
Very well behaved.
And Xuan'er has an advantage that no one else has.
Xu Qing worked hard at home for his wife to have a child, while Long Bing'er worked hard to make Shuzhou strong.
Sometimes the two of them work hard for each other.
Well, they lived a fulfilling and happy life.
…
that's all.
Half a year later...
Shuzhou finally saved enough capital for the Eastern Expedition, and Long Bing'er blackmailed the Prime Minister of Qin to obtain a lot of benefits for Shuzhou.
Nowadays, the elite soldiers are not short of firearms, not to mention cold weapons and armor. Now the time has finally come to launch the Eastern Expedition to wipe out the Zhao Kingdom in one fell swoop.
However, Long Bing'er had no way to lead the expedition in person.
Because she wants to raise a baby at home.
Once upon a time, the two met at a martial arts conference, and Long Bing'er asked Xu Qing: "Why didn't Sister Su come?"
Xu Qing's answer was: "Your sister Su needs to raise her baby at home."
Now it's her turn to raise the baby.
Also raising the baby with her is Zheng Waner.
It seems that there is no need to worry about the choice of daughter-in-law.
Xiao Ruxue and Li Mingyue were more than envious of Long Bing'er's good pregnancy.
These two are obviously the hardest working ones in the family!
Why is this result?
The two of them thought about it for ten days but still couldn't figure it out.
Now Long Bing'er wanted to personally lead an army to attack Zhao, but Xu Qing rejected it directly. When it's time to take good care of the baby, don't be idle and engage in the Eastern Expedition.
As a result, the empress Long Bing'er could no longer lead the expedition in person, so the commander had to be replaced by Xin Honggao.
No matter how powerful the queen is, she must obey her husband.
Xu Qing is both a husband and a military advisor.
Not only Xu Qing, but many generals also disagreed with Long Bing'er's current physical condition and personally leading the army.
For this reason, Long Bing'er was unhappy. At this time, she was already pregnant and was sitting on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, puckering her lips and feeling unhappy...
