Spoiling a Good Young Wife

"With God's blessing, the emperor issued a decree: Today there is an attack from a nomadic army. So the Emperor ordered king Xiao, Xue Zhan became commander and left for Bianjian today. There is no mistake to be made. So-called.

The words of the eunuchs got to the backyard of the palace like a bolt of lightning from the clear sky. Everyone was shocked by the news. Didn't you just go back to the palace? and now going to war again? The Princess will give birth soon.

“Prince Xiao, you still have not received the order to thank the emperor.” the eunuch who delivered the order reminded him sharply as he saw this.

"Easim, I obey his orders."

“Please Prince Xiao get ready, the old slave will resign, and you will get help from the house of Vice General Su.” The eunuch tapped on the wallet the butler put into him, and left Prince Xiao's house with a smile on his face.

The couple simply stood in the courtyard without saying a word, staring blankly at the imperial edict in their hands. Finally, Su Zijin spoke: husband, the emperor's orders cannot be broken. The people of the Ming Dynasty are still waiting for you.

She knew that her husband was reluctant to leave her and the child in his stomach.

“But.. ”

“husband.. ” Su Zijin hugged her husband's burly waist, suppressed the reluctance in her heart, and said slowly: my husband, our son will understand. He'll understand because it's his father's job, and he'll be very proud of you.

"Zijin, what more can a husband ask for when he has a wife like that! Don't worry, I'll be back soon." Rubbing the fleshy little hands of his wife, Xue Zhan felt extremely touched. His zijin was always very reasonable and knowledgeable. He owes her a lot.

“Zijin, I really can't let go of you" The newly reunited couple less than a month ago will be parting again. However, protecting family and country was a responsibility that Xue Zhan could not afford to neglect, so he had to give up his family for the sake of everyone.

Housekeeper Xiao brought all the servants out of the room and they felt uncomfortable. They saw the princess was about to give birth, but the prince had to go again to fight, and fearing that, the prince could not see the young prince being born.

This nomadic country is really full of hate, it doesn't come early, it doesn't come late, it just comes when the princess is about to give birth. Housekeeper Xiao thought with gritted teeth, hoping he could go to the battlefield and be able to kill a bit of the enemy.

“Zijin, after this battle is over, we will return to Taohua City and never return again.”

"Can? But your official position..." This prince not only accepted what he said, and he did not do what he said.

"Haha, you fool, the current emperor, does it really want me to lead a fighting army? He has no choice. He just wanted me to disappear." Xue Zhan said mockingly.

Xue Zhan's heart had long since felt cold. He is not one of those people who are greedy for power. If Song Huimin's father didn't get in the way, he should have earned military achievements in return for the ability to marry his lover. But he did not expect, not only did he not marry, but he almost lost his life. No matter how many achievements he achieved, he was still not a servant of the royal family.

On this day, Su Zijin and Xue Zhan were nowhere. They were silent in the study, flipping through ancient books, occasionally gathering to mutter a few words, and rarely did they spend a quiet afternoon.

At night, the couple went to bed early and made a tacit agreement not to talk about the trip.

"I think it's better to call it Mingzhu, it looks like our treasure at first sight."

"No, it's too rough, I want something more graceful."

"I don't have an idea."

Both men were talking about the name of the child. No wonder they spent the entire afternoon flipping through books, but there did not seem to be a uniform answer.

“Why don't you give me a nickname just yet, Su Shu?”

"Su Shu? It saves you from trouble. What a great name. We can tell at first glance that he is our son. "Xue Zhan stuck his ear to his ear on the stomach of the wife, then he gently called out to Su Su, and his gentle appearance made Su Zijin feel a little funny.

"Zijin, it's so good to have you by my side."

At dawn the next day, Xue Zhan got out of bed, and carefully stroking his wife's long hair, he did not know when she would return, he definitely could not watch her baby born. Son, you must be brave and strong, and wait for me to return.

"Married man."

Su Zijin heard Xue Zhan's murmur clearly, and he didn't fall asleep that night. He woke up as soon as the man turned around, but he did not open his eyes, he did not want to face the parting scene.

"Daughter, why are you awake? The prince just left. If the princess wants, I will let the housekeeper prepare the carriage, and should still be able to catch up with her now.

"No, because he doesn't want me to see him go, I won't see him. Have you brought everything for the prince? "Su Zijin occasionally read novels in the past. He knew those who went to war were the most taboo, if worried and still dazed on the battlefield, it would be dangerous. So she couldn't let her husband worry.

"Don't worry, Princess. The cook made a whole bottle of kimchi according to the princess's recipe. Although it does not feel as good as the princess herself, but not worse. And bring it all to the prince"

The princess did not know where she learned such preservation, it tasted so delicious, that people could not stop eating it.

“That's good, that's good.”

Outside the west city gate, Xue Zhan was wearing a military uniform and a deep red robe, his eyes were full of solemnity, which made people feel cold.

The second prince had been waiting at the city gate early in the morning, this time his father ordered him to come and do this work, but he was already fully prepared and had to win his heart. His father is good, his health has been deteriorating lately.

"General Xue, today I am here on behalf of my father to train with all the soldiers. I hope the general guards himself and withdraws the troops from the nomadic country as soon as possible to strengthen the position of our Ming Dynasty!" The second prince said out for the trip, and Xue Zhan was not called Prince Xiao, that's right, now he was in command on the battlefield, and he was a general.

“General Xue, rest assured, I will take better care of everything in Kyoto,” the second prince whispered in Xue Zhan's ear without leaving any trace. When Xue Zhan turned his head, he seemed to be nothing, and he was truly a wise person.

He did not care whether the second prince was sincere or fake, he would never engage in an attempt to seize the throne, he did not want to be deceived again. No matter how kind the second prince said today, who knew, if he would become like his father in the future, he really did not dare to praise the prestige of the royal family.

"Kill and drive back the enemies! Show off the position of our country! Kill and drive back the enemies and reveal the strength of our country."

it had to be said that this second prince was still in trouble, at least the soldiers below gave him face, and the crowd chanted loudly slogans vigorously.

“Second Prince, please stay here, I go!”

“All officers and soldiers listen to orders, let's go”

The army marched slowly against the sun. Right now, no one noticed that there were people who should not be among the army. Maybe some people know it, but they just close their eyes and pretend not to see it.
