Dong Zhuo left, and the dark clouds hanging over Chang'an City seemed to have disappeared overnight. The weather was clear and crisp. In Long Fei's former general's mansion, people were extremely anxious. Early this morning, Wang Qiang suddenly complained that he had a stomachache
It hurt, and everyone immediately thought that she was about to give birth. The general's mansion was in chaos, and the maids and wives were in a hurry.
Dian Wei yelled: "Don't mess around. Just do what you have to do quickly. If you are soldiers, Grandpa Dian will kill you all!"
This roar was really effective, and there was a lot of silence immediately. Everyone was busy with their own things. Hua Tuo was dragged here by Wang Wei. The old man had not run like this in several years, and he was out of breath.
Panting heavily, Long Fei grabbed Hua Tuo and said, "Miracle Doctor Hua, please, please!"
Hua Tuo shook his head and smiled bitterly. He thought that Long Fei was not so nervous when he was setting his own bones in Yunzhong Inn, but today he was in a mess. Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and others all came, including Huang Zhong
He also helped his son Huang Xu to the front yard. Huang Zhong followed Long Fei's method and helped Huang Xu massage and exercise every day. Now Huang Xu's condition has improved and he can walk for a while with a limp. Xu Shu also came out. He
He glanced at Guo Jia and nodded slightly.
The small courtyard was filled with people. A few maids pushed aside the crowd and led a few midwives into the courtyard. They were about to salute. Long Fei quickly stopped him and asked them to help quickly. Things gradually calmed down from the initial panic.
After coming down, everyone calmed down and listened to Wang Qiang's miserable screams in the room. Every time she screamed, Long Fei felt his heart being pinched hard.
"So this is how giving birth to a baby is! Fortunately, we are men, being a woman is too painful!" Zhou Tai, who came with Gan Ning, stood at the outermost edge of the crowd, looking in on tiptoes.
Huang Zhong smiled slightly: "So, children must know the kindness of their parents!"
Huang Xu hurriedly said: "Dad, don't worry, I will honor you when I get better!"
The conversation between several people was not loud, and everyone present heard it clearly, and they all thought of their parents. Especially Xu Shu, whose eye circles were red, and tears fell down.
"Gah wow, gah wow...!" A loud cry echoed over the courtyard. Everyone immediately went from anxiety to joy, and everyone let out a long breath. Dian Wei asked loudly: "Male or female?
"
Wang Wei and Long Fei were about to rush in, but they were blocked by a midwife Wen: "You can't come in, there's another one!"
"Twins!" Once again, everyone's hearts were raised in their throats. According to tradition, twins are considered a symbol of bad luck. The reason is very simple, because twins are born with smaller weight and are less likely to survive.
So the ancients thought it was a bad omen. Everyone behind Long Fei was silent, and even Wang Wei retreated gloomily. Only Long Fei was jumping up and down. According to the probability, twins are very rare. From my heart, I had two children at once.
Naturally very happy.
"Gah wow, gah wow...!" There was another burst of crying, the cries of the two children were louder than the other, announcing their arrival in this world.
The two wet nurses appeared in front of everyone, each holding one in his arms. Long Fei glanced at it for a moment, and then ran to the bed. After a whole day of tossing, Wang Qiang lay weakly on the bed, her hair soaked with sweat, and her face was haggard.
He smiled reluctantly at Long Fei. Long Fei grabbed Wang Qiang's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"
The nanny came over with the baby in her arms, and it was only then that Long Fei realized that the twins were twins, the older one was the sister, and the younger one was the younger brother. Hua Tuo carefully checked Wang Qiang and the child to make sure they were fine, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
It is a good thing to have a male child. The ancients advocated the inheritance of the family line. If Long Fei did not have a boy, the Long family line would be cut off in a hundred years, and the brothers who followed him would become rootless duckweeds. Now that he has this son,
Everyone had hope, and no one mentioned it again as to whether it was a good omen or a bad omen.
Although Long Fei was just a former general, he held a large number of troops. He was now regarded as Dong Zhuo's designated "Minister of Guan Ming". He was blessed with a son, so he naturally had a good family. Regardless of whether he had some friendship with Long Fei or Dong Zhuo's subordinates, they still hoped that Long Fei would replace him in front of Dong Zhuo.
Lower-level bureaucrats who had spoken kindly to him, or senior royalist officials like Wang Yun, who knew Long Fei's true destination, came to congratulate him one after another.
Long Fei was so happy that he set up a flowing banquet in his house for three days. As long as anyone came to say congratulations, no matter how high or low they were, they could ask for a glass of water and wine. Within three days, the birth of a boy and a girl in the family of former general Long Fei became a story in Chang'an.
The biggest topic in the city spread farther and faster than those decrees. Dong Zhuo, who was far away in Meiwu, even sent people to send congratulatory gifts. This honor made others envious.
Wang Yun was the last person to come to congratulate him. It took more than ten days for Wang Yun to come. Long Fei let Wang Yun into the house and finished the greetings. Wang Yun looked around. Long Fei understood and sent everyone out. Only then did Wang Yun say
: "Lu Bu is gone, Dong Zhuo is also gone, what are you going to do next?"
Long Fei said: "Isn't this exactly what you want? His Majesty has taken charge of the government, and everyone is happy!"
"Don't do this to me. I paid you to kill Dong Zhuo!" Wang Yun stood up and stared at Long Fei: "It has been more than a year and there has been no movement at all. My patience has its limits.
,Believe me or not, I..."
"What can you do?"
"I will tell Dong Zhuo everything about you!" Wang Yun threatened.
Long Fei smiled evilly, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes: "Okay! You can go now!"
Wang Yun looked into Long Fei's eyes and his heart skipped a beat. He took a long breath and sat back down: "Dong Zhuo seems to have left Chang'an, but in fact Chang'an is still controlled by him. As long as he doesn't die, the big man will have no hope! Long!
General, I beg you, please help me for the sake of the big man! Just ask for anything you want, as long as I can give it to you, I will definitely give it to you!"
"Hehehe..." Long Fei chuckled and said: "Master Wang, Dong Zhuo is not just one person, he has tens of thousands of troops behind him. Killing him is easy. Master Wang has thought about how to arrange his army! As long as he
Lord Wang has a way to keep Li Jue, Guo Si and others safe after killing Dong Zhuo, I will do it right now!"
"How terrible are these clowns! Once Dong Zhuo dies, they will scatter like birds and beasts!"
"That said! If they lead troops into Chang'an, Mr. Wang, please think about it. It may be even more terrifying than it is now!"
Wang Yun looked up to the sky and sighed: "We will talk about this later. Just kill Dong Zhuo first!"
The emperor suddenly issued an edict, conferring Dong Zhuo the title of King Yong, adding nine tins, and making it a holiday. Dong Zhuo's mother was conferred the title of Lord of Wuyang, and other clans also received awards. The imperial court specially sent Dong Zhuo's nephew Dong Huang to Meiwu to deliver the edict to show the prestige of the Dong family.
Everyone in the Dong family was overjoyed, and they all believed that Dong Zhuo was now crowned king, which was only one step away from his ultimate goal. If one day, the old ministers loyal to the Han Dynasty in the court died one by one, the remaining things would be much easier to handle.
Guo Jia smiled and said, "Did this plan come from General Long?"
"Hahaha..." Long Fei laughed loudly: "I can't hide anything from Fengxiao! It was indeed me! Si Tianjian reported yesterday that there have been severe floods in the third auxiliary in the recent period, and His Majesty's star has suddenly shone brightly.
Suddenly, there seems to be a bad omen. Your Majesty was ill yesterday. I asked Doctor Hua to check it out. He just felt cold occasionally. The two bad omens appeared together, which just gave Dong Zhuo a reason to come to Chang'an!"
"If Dong Zhuo comes, he will definitely lead an army of personal guards. Besides, there are tens of thousands of Dong Min's troops in the city! It may not be easy to do it at this time!" Xu Shu said.
Jia Xu smiled: "He can't carry Dong Zhuo's army and Dong Min's army everywhere. He can just wait until there is no one around Dong Zhuo!"
"Killing Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, Ma Ridan and others will not benefit us at all!" Xu Shu asked again: "Besides, Hei Bing has not assigned the task of killing Dong Zhuo. It will be even more disadvantageous to anger the Lord.
!”
"Hey?! Yuan Zhi is surprised by what he said!" Guo Jiadao: "Dong Zhuo is a traitor in the world, and everyone kills him quickly. Although Hei Bing is anti-Han, he does not understand the people's voices. If Hei Bing is blamed, our Yingchuan Academy will definitely
I won’t sit idly by and watch!”
"Okay, there is no need to argue about this matter!" Long Fei interrupted the argument between the two: "What I did in Xiangyang is already regarded as Hei Bing's sinner. Who cares about him! Do it first and then talk about it! From today on, Brother Yuan Zhi and
Feng Xiao mobilized all the forces around him to pay attention to every move of Dong Min, Li Su, and Li Ru. Wen He and his second brother tried to figure out Dong Min's army deployment. The rest of the people organized the army. There will be a fierce battle! Long Fei, please!
"
Three days later, there was heavy rain from Tongguan to Chencang. It was a heavy rain that had not been seen in hundreds of years. The water level of the Wei River rose sharply and had submerged large areas of farmland and villages in the surrounding Weinan, Xianyang, Wuzhangyuan and other places. Some were even closer to the Qinling Mountains.
The place suffered from landslides repeatedly, and reports were reported from Lantian and other places. After many discussions, it was decided that Emperor Liu Xie would offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for peace. However, Liu Xie was ill, and after discussions with the ministers, it was finally decided to ask Yong to pray for peace.
Wang Dongzhuo offered sacrifices to heaven on behalf of His Majesty.
Dong Min was very happy. Being able to offer sacrifices to heaven on behalf of the emperor showed that the officials had recognized Dong Zhuo as King Yong. Li Su and Li Ru both felt that there was something wrong, but they couldn't figure out what the problem was. After discussing it, they decided
He suggested to Dong Zhuo not to come to Chang'an. Sure enough, Dong Zhuo politely refused despite repeated imperial edicts. Wang Yun had no choice but to come to Long Fei again.
Long Fei said: "Of course you don't care about anything if it doesn't affect you. There are heavy rains everywhere and landslides are far away from Meiwu. Dong Zhuo doesn't care about that. If something happens to Meiwu, can Dong Zhuo not be anxious?"
"This!" Wang Yun was helpless: "This kind of thing is arranged by God. How can we say that wherever something goes wrong, it will happen there!"
Long Fei smiled: "Forget it, I'll help you one more time. Something will happen to Meiwu within ten days!"
