"I have thought that when I have a child and raise him up, I will resign from the official position and take my wife to travel around the world. I will stay for a while wherever I see good things. When I see someone who is unfair, I will save him with my sword." Thinking of it.
Planning for the future, a smile from the bottom of his heart finally appeared on Zhao Changyuan's face.
"Sure enough, you are just like me, you don't have much future." Even though Mr. Evil said this, he really admired his character of yearning for freedom and freedom without seeking utilitarianism. "Is that little lady of yours willing?"
At this point, perhaps because the alcohol had played a role, Zhao Changyuan's face turned red involuntarily: "She is willing. She said that no matter where I go, she is willing to follow me."
The evil young man smiled heartily again: "You boy, you are really not an ordinary good fortune. Although you are a lady with sharp teeth and perverse behavior, you are indeed beautiful, intelligent and charming. You are different from ordinary women and are easy to attract.
People like it. There are not many women I admire in my life, but she is one of them..." I wanted to continue to praise, but I caught a glimpse of the pretty girl with red cheeks, pursed lips, and squinted eyes staring at me. She quickly braked to avoid overturning the jealousy pot again. "And.
I’m still totally devoted to you.”
As expected, the pretty girl was happy again: "This is true."
Seeing how stupid he was, and remembering his brother's thoughts, the evil young man couldn't help but kindly reminded him: "But don't just rely on her being devoted to you and just let her wander around outside like a sheep all day long. Like
There are not many decent gentlemen like me. Don't be caught by a wolf cub someday. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid that thieves will miss you.
"I won't do it anymore. She promised me that she won't go to the Yamen anymore."
"Well, you have finally come to the end of your hardships." The evil young man has been watching Zhao Changyuan's hardships in defending his marriage, and he is sincerely pleased with his current happiness.
Throughout the night, the jailers walked curiously outside the iron gate, listening to the two noble men, the good and the evil, drinking and talking about the past and present in this filthy prison.
Only now did Zhao Changyuan realize that Mr. Pan was actually an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs. For the first time, Mr. Pan discovered that Mr. Zhao would joke, burp, and giggle after drinking...
The visit lasted for a long time, and although the jailer did not dare to come forward to disturb him, the two people who knew the seriousness also understood that it was time to say goodbye for a while.
Before leaving, Zhao Changyuan held it in for a long time, with an expression as if he had a frog in his throat, and finally said hesitantly: "Jingyuan, there is actually something... I don't know whether I should tell you or not."
The evil young man already felt something was wrong with his expression, so he asked calmly: "Tell me, what else can I not bear?"
"Du Ruotong...she...is engaged." The pretty girl had a look of pain on her face, as if it was Gong Yueyue who was getting engaged. Because the person he was facing at this moment, all the expressions on his face were quickly taken away by these words.
Dry.
"Oh, is that right... This is a good thing... I... I have to... congratulate her." The evil young man suppressed the bitterness in his heart, but he didn't know that his face was already pale at this time.
The pretty girl couldn't bear to look at him, so she lowered her head and asked, "Don't you have anything you want me to tell her?"
The evil young man tried his best to put on a smile: "Tell her for me that someone finally wants the ugly one, and the evil young man is happy for her."
"Is there nothing else?" the pretty boy asked in disbelief. In his opinion, this kind of thing was enough to make him go crazy and escape from prison. How could this evil young man just say a few words and let it go?
"Gone."
The iron door made an unpleasant noise again, and the friend who was as warm as the spring breeze disappeared outside the iron window. The jailers returned to their posts and stood, and the surroundings returned to deathly silence and darkness.
No one knew that the evil young man fell to the ground biting his sleeve and cried like a child.
"Come out." Gong Yueyue and Du Ruotong, who were waiting in the carriage on the street, had been feeling gloomy and miserable. When they saw Zhao Changyuan coming up, Gong Yueyue's whole body lit up: "Mr. sir, how is he? Is he okay?
"
Zhao Changyuan sat down and comforted them with a look like Zhao: "It's okay, don't worry, I will go to the palace to see the emperor early tomorrow morning."
Du Ruotong groaned with swollen eyes: "But there are only a few days left..."
He resolutely promised: "I know, I will see the emperor tomorrow no matter what." He would not hesitate to break into the palace.
Gong Yueyue asked with sly eyes: "By the way, have you said everything I asked you to say to him?" The last words he said to the evil young man were caused by her, Gong Yueyue.
"I told you..." He replied helplessly.
Gong Yueyue approached him and asked curiously: "How did he react?" Du Ruotong was also nervously waiting for his answer.
He admittedly said: "Although he is holding it back, I can see that he is very sad."
Gong Yueyue glanced at her mouth and said mischievously: "I want to make him suffer. Who makes him always bully Ruotong like this and prevent others from proposing marriage to her? It's so abominable!"
Du Ruotong was both happy and distressed, biting the handkerchief into a mess.
Zhao Changyuan stretched out his hand and pinched Gong Yueyue's pink nose: "You are full of evil." He also led him to evil.
"It would be great if I could really have a bad stomach, and save more money on food. I suspect there are worms in my stomach. Let's find a place to eat quickly." As she said this, she alerted Zhao Changyuan with her eyes, and then told him that in the future, she would stay in Du Ruo
In front of Tong, you can't show too much intimacy, lest she look sad, this pretty boy actually turned away and forgot.
Because she was afraid that Du Ruotong would be alone with her thoughts, Gong Yueyue had been eating and sleeping with her these days. Zhao Changyuan lived alone in the room next to theirs. Sometimes he would meet Pan Yu and Pan Zhuqing in the inn, and a few of them would gather together.
Have a meal together and discuss the case.
Everything was in order. Until tonight, in the middle of the night, a woman's scream came from unknown rooms. It frightened everyone and woke them up from their sleep. They dressed randomly and ran out of the guest room to see what was going on.
As soon as Gong Yueyue and Du Ruotong opened the door, they bumped into Zhao Changyuan who was about to knock on the door.
"Ms. sir, what's going on?" Gong Yueyue asked, yawning.
"I don't know yet, it seems to be the sound from downstairs."
The screams became more and more miserable, and Gong Yueyue was shaking all over: "Wow, they are still screaming, let's go and have a look."
"Let's go." Zhao Changyuan got down with the two girls and followed the guests who came out of the room one after another.
It turned out that the pregnant woman downstairs suddenly had unbearable labor pains before she was full term and was anxious to give birth. It was so late at night and she was unfamiliar with the place. Where could she find Mrs. Wen? Her anxious husband went all over the street knocking on doors to find a doctor. The pregnant woman stayed behind.
I was in so much pain at the inn that I finally screamed.
Seeing the pregnant woman rolling all over the bed in pain, the innkeeper became anxious. This inn had never encountered such a difficult situation before.
"Hey, distinguished guests, do any of you know how to deliver babies? Please help this lady! If this continues, I'm afraid..." He didn't dare to say any more, for fear of getting into trouble.
The people standing outside the guest room were either feudal officials, grand master generals, or delicate ladies. Who knew how to deliver babies? You all looked at me, and I looked at you, at a loss.
The shrill screams were particularly heart-piercing on a night like this.
An older, kind-hearted lady suddenly stood up and said, "I can give it a try. Although I have never delivered a baby, I have given birth to several children."
The boss thought for a while: "There is nothing we can do. It is important to save people, so Mrs. Lao will be there."
"But I need help." She looked around and saw all the pretty unmarried girls. Only Gong Yueyue next to Zhao Changyuan wore her married hair in a bun and looked smart. "I don't know what to call this lady?"
The servant next to her quickly told her: "This is General Zuowei Zhao Changyuan and his wife."
She stepped forward and nodded in greeting: "I wonder if Mrs. Zhao can do my sister a favor and deliver the baby to the poor sister inside?"
Gong Yueyue's face turned pale with fright: "Uh? I...I...I...okay..." She wanted to say that she was scared, but now that it was important to save people, she really couldn't refuse.
Zhao Changyuan saw her pale face, pulled her and whispered in her ear: "Are you afraid?"
She coughed twice, trying to calm down: "No...it doesn't matter, it's okay." After saying that, she followed the lady towards the guest room.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Pan Zhuqing who looked very bad: "If you are bleeding, don't hold on." He told her calmly.
"I don't feel dizzy." She was just afraid that seeing the birth process with her own eyes would make her even less courageous to get pregnant and have a baby.
After closing the door, the guests outside the door did not disperse. The heartbreaking screams of the pregnant women really made it impossible to sleep. It was better to wait outside the door together and wait for the news. On such a special night, with such a special group of people
, witnessing the birth of a new life is not a kind of fate.
"It's so embarrassing for Yue Yue. She told me that she is most afraid of this. Now that she has seen it with her own eyes, I don't know if it will cast any shadow. Maybe she won't dare to have children in the future." Du Ruotong is fine and again.
He began to speak without restraint.
Zhao Changyuan felt a little sad in his heart, but said resolutely: "If she really doesn't dare, then don't do it."
Du Ruotong said in disbelief: "How is that possible? If you don't care, your parents won't care? Maybe they will marry you as a concubine."
He said without hesitation: "I only want her. And I will never let a woman I don't love give birth to a child for me. How cruel that would be!"
Du Ruotong praised him from the bottom of his heart this time: "Jealous man, you are indeed a good man."
The sound of ripening came from the door, and the cry of the mother turned into the cry of the baby. Everyone couldn't help but smile with joy: "Give birth, give birth! So fast!"
The door opened, and the lady who delivered the baby came out with a baby in her arms: "I've given birth to a daughter." Everyone looked around curiously, but she greeted Zhao Changyuan who was standing in the corner loudly: "By the way, General Zhao, your wife...
...I was so frightened that I fainted.”
Upon hearing this, everyone consciously dispersed and let Zhao Changyuan and Du Ruotong, who were red-eyed, rush into the room.
Gong Yueyue was lying on the imperial concubine's couch with a pale face, unconscious.
Zhao Changyuan rushed up to pick her up and patted her cheek: "Yueyue, madam!" But she didn't respond at all.
Just as he was about to pick her up and go out to find the doctor, the mother-in-law of the pregnant woman walked into the guest room with the doctor.
"Someone fainted?" The doctor was over sixty years old, but his voice was like a bell.
Zhao Changyuan hurried forward and asked: "Doctor, this is my wife." (To be continued)
