Winter is here, spring is coming soon again.【26nbsp;】
Shuilian is pregnant in summer. After counting, the due date will be in March and April.
She was pregnant with Liujia and was unable to move. According to the maintenance orders issued by the palace's Zidai Po and the Imperial Doctor, she increased her activity and walked around the Imperial Garden every morning and evening.
At that time, the emperor was also very busy.
On the border, the war with Beiyan Dongchi has been in a stalemate, and several generals in front have reported continuous reports of failures. Beiyan Dongchi has been very arrogant recently, repeatedly defeating the northern army and besieging horses three hundred miles north of Xiangyang.
After more than forty days of circling the city, the food in the city was cut off, and the soldiers used dead human flesh and bark to satisfy their hunger.
The soldiers of the North were forced to break through, killing and injured more than a thousand people. This put serious military pressure on the North.
He was anxious, but he was helpless.
For several consecutive days, he was convening ministers to convene military meetings.
The consensus result of the discussion believes that the battle situation must not be dragged into tomorrow's spring. At that time, the weather was getting hotter and the main force in the north was the most unbearable to the heat. Every time it was dragged into the summer decisive battle, it was basically difficult to win.
Therefore, the most urgent task is to fight quickly.
However, the North Yan Dongchi came so fiercely that the emperor would not be able to subdue him if he did not take action personally.
If it were the same, the emperor would have decided to lead the army in person without hesitation. However, this time, he kept hesitating and could hardly make a decision.
On this day, he came back very late.
Shui Lian had already fallen asleep, and when she heard that he came back, she got up again.
The emperor hurriedly supported her and said angrily: "Shuilian, you have rested, why are you doing up again?"
She said softly: "I slept for a long time this afternoon, and now I am not sleepy at all. I can't sleep even if I lie down."
While speaking, he ordered the palace maids to prepare imperial meals.
The dishes were very light, because the emperor had been angry these days and had blood blisters on his mouth, so she prepared some light lotus seed porridge.
After shutting down the palace maids, she personally served him a bowl of lotus seed porridge, "Your Majesty, try it."
"Shuilian, sit down quickly, I'll do it myself."
She said softly, "This is a simple task, not at all trouble. Your Majesty, look, your mouth is blistering, so why would you please summon the imperial doctor tonight to see?"
The emperor shook his head.
He was very anxious recently, but he didn't want to show it in front of Shuilian at all to make her worry. He heard her ask, forcing her to smile: "It's okay, Shuilian, I'm fine."
