Yuan Qingling felt that ambition was really endless.
However, she didn't quite understand at the same time, "The Marquis of Zhenbei only suppressed bandits and brought peace to the people, so why did he achieve such great success?"
If we talk about retreating from the enemy and protecting the country, it makes sense to be granted the title of prince.
Yu Wenhao explained: "Because the Zhenbei area has always been a serious concern for the imperial court. The population of Zhenbei is nearly 800,000, and the people's customs are extremely fierce. This is because in the previous dynasty, Emperor Jiadi issued an order to suppress bandits nationwide, and the intensity was
It was very big, and the bandits and bandits all fled to the north of the town. It was on the border with the Bei Mo and it was difficult to attack. Once the imperial troops went to the north of the town, it would arouse the vigilance of the Bei Mo. Therefore, Jiadi could only let the bandits go.
The bandits took root in Zhenbei, thus laying the root of the disaster. Every year, the Zhenbei bandits went to various parts of the Northern Tang Dynasty, burned, killed, and looted. After looting and killing, they fled back to Zhenbei. In the past few years,
, Emperor Father sent General Hu to Zhenbei to suppress the bandits. Originally, he only wanted to properly deter or suppress the bandits, but the Marquis of Zhenbei was able to eliminate the bandits, and all the remaining ones were recruited to form the Zhenbei Army of the imperial court. In other words, Zhenbei was
The troops and horses in Hou's hands now, not counting the old, weak, women and children, are at least two to three hundred thousand, this is still a conservative estimate."
Yuan Qingling understood and said: "So, the Marquis of Zhenbei not only has meritorious service, but also has soldiers. Is this what you mean?"
"That's right. If we say that the Marquis of Zhenbei is the emperor of Zhenbei, no one will refute it. He has a self-respecting army and has great achievements. Now he is even more arrogant and domineering. Once his ambition becomes too big, it will be a big trouble for our court."
Yuan Qingling finally understood Emperor Ming Yuan's dilemma.
She felt that Emperor Ming Yuan was very kind to her.
Beitang faced this situation. He had planned everything, but she ruined all his arrangements because she did not allow other women to snatch her husband.
Anyone who is cruel would probably not be able to tolerate her life.
For a moment, Yuan Qingling was moved by Emperor Ming Yuan's love for the country and the people, and a sense of national justice burst out in her heart. She looked at Yu Wenhao sincerely and said, "Lao Wu, from now on we must be filial to our father."
Yu Wenhao was confused by her magical turn, "What? Be filial to him?"
"He is concerned about the country and the people..."
"Don't I, the king, worry about the country and the people?" Yu Wenhao narrowed his eyes and felt that his wife worshiped me too much. He decided to educate her about my personality, "As an emperor, he has no shirk in doing this, but as a
Father, he has repeatedly forced others to make things difficult for him and destroyed his son’s family happiness..."
Yuan Qingling interrupted him, "Stop nagging like an old lady. What's wrong with admitting that my father is a wise king?"
Yu Wenhao looked at her and severely accused, "Old Yuan, you have rebelled."
Yuan Qing chuckled, "Okay, okay, have you eaten? If not, I'll ask someone to prepare it for you."
Yu Wenhao snorted: "I can't eat anymore, I'm full of anger, you're disobeying me, I'm very upset."
Yuan Qingling walked out with a smile and asked Man'er to make him something to eat.
He said he wouldn't eat it, but when Man'er was ready and served it, the meal was still a mess.
He looked up at the warm smile between Yuan Qing's brows and said, "Beifeng is not full, so he still has to eat something real."
Grandma Xi and Man'er came in and said to Yuan Qing: "The hot water is ready, the princess can take a bath."
Yu Wenhao stood up and said, "I'm here to help you."
Now that her belly is a little bigger, it is not very convenient for her to take a bath. In addition, she doesn't like to have Nanny Xi and Man'er around to take care of her, so she is sometimes very embarrassed by herself.
The bathhouse is very warm, and the stove has been lit for a long time. The Jinghou Mansion is not like Princess Chu's Earth Dragon, so a charcoal stove must be lit everywhere.
Seeing that it was warm enough in the hall, Yu Wenhao moved the stove outside and moved it in again later when he could get dressed.
Now that she is pregnant, Yuan Qingling said before that she would not take a bath, so Man'er thoughtfully made a special chair for bathing and asked her to sit next to the tub. A long-handled spoon was placed in it and she poured hot water on her body.
.
Yu Wenhao took off her clothes. Although he was born in the royal family, he also had a military career for many years, so he was inevitably a little careless. However, he has learned to be much more careful now, and he also understands the structure of women's clothes very clearly. Of course, this is all thanks to
There are not many sports of some kind.
Looking at her skin as white as bamboo shoots, Yu Wenhao kept sighing in his heart, these three babies really came at the wrong time.
If we come back a year later, how happy these days will be.
Yuan Qingling patted his hand on his chest and asked, "What are your hands doing?"
Yu Wenhao scratched the red mole on his chest with his nails, calmed down his mind, suppressed his anger, and said half cutely and half curiously: "It feels much bigger... No, this red mole is a bit strange, I want to see more
I looked at it twice and had no other thoughts."
He helped Yuan Qingling sit down on the chair, took off his clothes, and felt that his belly was much bigger. He stretched out his hand to touch it, and said: "You little brats, your father has to give you a bath before you are born."
.”
Yuan Qingling was helpless, "You know the temperature in the room is actually not that warm, right?"
Yu Wenhao quickly took a water spoon and poured it on her body. The water was just right in temperature and when it was poured down, a cloud of white mist rose up.
"Is the water temperature suitable?" Yu Wenhao asked while showering. He wiped her body with his other hand, which seemed very correct.
Yuan Qing Ling said: "It's appropriate."
She looked at her toes, glad she could still see them.
Yu Wenhao showered for a while, stopped to smear perfume on her body, and then moved his hands up and down freely, looking professional and serious but also selfish.
Yuan Qingling couldn't help laughing. Looking at his stubborn and stubborn look, she asked narrowly: "Lao Wu, do you need to arrange one or two roommates for you?"
Yu Wenhao said without raising his head: "Okay, you go and arrange it. They must look exactly like you. If I can find them, not just one, but ten or a hundred, I will accept them all."
After Yuan Qingling heard this, her heart moved and she asked tentatively: "Do you just look at this face?"
Yu Wenhao raised his head, glanced at her, then poured water from a spoon to wash away the fragrant dew, and said: "It can't be the Yuan Qingling from before."
"Do you think there is any difference between the person I used to be and the person I am now? Isn't it just that my temperament has changed a bit?" Yuan Qingling's face was red and her eyes were burning.
Yu Wenhao said nothing and kept showering her. After the shower, he wrapped her in a large towel and wiped her dry. Then he quickly went out to bring the stove in and put it next to her to dress her.
After everything was sorted, he stood up and looked at her.
There were water droplets on his face, sliding down the edge of his forehead and down his cheeks, past the already pink scar, and the water droplets reflected the glow of the wall lamp on the wall.
He was serious, and there was a glimmer of light in his dark eyes. He slowly asked: "Are you the former Yuan Qingling?"
