Chapter 943: Ruthless

Yan Wushuang was talking to Meng Nian, and the guards outside raised their voices outside: "Lord Wang, the side concubine Niangniang sent someone to say that the big county lord has a fever. "Yan Wushuang is very precious to Bao's daughter, so as soon as Bao gets sick, Yuchen immediately sends everyone over to sue Yan Wushuang.

Yan Wushuang was a little worried, and said to Meng Nian: "I'll go over and see Ah Bao first, and I'll talk about other things later." "My baby daughter is sick, where can I do anything else.

Meng Nian looked at Yan Wushuang's hurried footsteps, but smiled. Finally, there is someone who makes the prince fall in love, which is a good thing for the prince. Moreover, the lord of Abao County looks so good that anyone who sees it likes it.

Yan Wushuang hurried to the backyard, looked at his daughter with a flushed face, and his face immediately sank: "What's the matter?

Yuchen said: "It's hot now, and Ah Bao kicked the quilt at night, so he caught a cold." "Every time the day changes, it is the time when children are most likely to get sick.

Yan Wushuang didn't care so much, Ah Bao kicked the quilt and got cold, that is, the nurse and the maid didn't take care of it, so he immediately gave an order to send all Ah Bao's nurse and the personal maid out and replace them with new ones.

Mama Gui brought the boiled medicine, but Po was reluctant to drink it. Not to mention children, even adults are not willing to drink this kind of bitter medicine.

Yuchen looked at Yan Wushuang holding the medicine, and didn't let Ah Bao drink two sips for a long time, and couldn't help but say: "Lord Wang, let's let the concubine feed it!"

Yan Wushuang hesitated for a moment, and finally handed the medicine to Yuchen, while he himself stood by and watched.

Ah Bao was reluctant to drink the medicine, so Yuchen could only forcibly pour it. Seeing Ah Bao's miserable crying, Yan Wushuang walked out of the house and asked Le Tai Doctor who was outside: "Can't you make the kind of pill that zuò children eat?" Feeding pills is much simpler and more convenient than feeding medicine.

Doctor Le Taiyi lowered his head and said, "Lord Wang, Weichen has also tried to do it. The pills that can be made are not very effective. "Since taking pills is not as effective as drinking medicine directly, it shows that such a real yàn is a failure.

Yan Wushuang was not an empathetic master, and said: "Since the effect is not good, let's think about improvements." After a pause, Yan Wushuang added: "If you really make such a pill, Doctor Le Tai, you will be the first person in the history of medicine, and when the time comes, it will definitely be passed down through the ages." ”

At this moment, Yan Wushuang is just a father who cares about his daughter and doesn't want his daughter to suffer.

Doctor Le Tai is not rare at all, and it has been passed down through the ages. Working under Yan Wu's hands, he was satisfied if he could keep the family safe and sound. However, the thoughts in his heart did not dare to be revealed, and Doctor Le lowered his head even more: "Lord Wang, my subordinates will do their best." ”

Not only Ah Bao has a fever, but even Yu Xisheng's triplets also have a fever. However, because it was only a slight fever, Mama Quan and Mama Lan did not ask a doctor to prescribe medicine for the triplets, but first used local methods to cool down the three children.

The child is sick, and Yuxi is not at ease in handling government affairs in the front yard. Every quarter of an hour, I had to ask Meilan and Jingbai to go to the backyard to see the situation. I finally finished the matter at hand, and then hurried to the backyard.

Mama Quan looked at Yuxi's anxious expression, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the children are asleep, and when they wake up, there should be no big problem." As long as the next two days don't repeat itself, it's fine. ”

Yuxi looked at the three sons sleeping in a row, and said with a wry smile: "My mother is really incompetent." "The child can't take care of it personally when he's sick, and Yuxi feels guilty.

Mama Quan smiled and said, "Don't think too much, now the outside matter is important, and when the prince comes back, you can take good care of the three brothers." "In fact, Mama Quan and Mama Lan took two mothers-in-law and six maids to take good care of the triplets. But how can this child not get sick.

Yuxi touched Brother Rui'er's smooth forehead and snorted. In fact, when Yunqing came back, she could spare time to take care of the child when he was sick. Other times, it's just as busy. The territory is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more things, so it is thanks to the experience that I already have, so I am not in a hurry.

Mama Quan thought for a moment and asked in a mosquito-like voice, "When will the prince come back?"

Yuxi shook his head and said: "The prince has now arrived at the junction of Henan and Hubei, and he will not be able to come back in a short time." "There is no way to estimate the war, so there is no way to determine the date of return.

Quan Mama sighed and didn't continue to ask. At this moment, Meilan walked in softly and whispered, "Princess, there is an urgent military report from the front." "Other things can be put aside, this urgent military report can't be delayed for half a minute.

When Mama Quan heard this, she said softly: "Don't worry, with me and Mother Lan, the child will be fine." You can deal with the outside in peace!"

Yuxi nodded and said, "Brother Rui'er, the three brothers, are going to bother Grandma Quan." "It's also a loss to have Grandma Quan, otherwise how could Yuxi be so worry-free.

Yuxi returned to the front yard, rubbed his temples after reading the military report, and said to Xu Wu: "Let Yuan Ying come over immediately." "This military newspaper was written by Yunqing himself, asking for grain, grass and military salary.

Yunqing recruited another 150,000 soldiers and horses in Henan, and Du Zheng originally recruited 150,000 soldiers and horses in Henan, excluding those who died in battle, and now there are 350,000 soldiers and horses in Henan alone. The daily consumption of grain and grass by these soldiers and horses, as well as the military salaries that need to be paid, make Yuxi a little overwhelmed.

As soon as Xu Wu looked at the posture, he asked, "Do you want food, grass and military salaries?" Although the soldiers and horses recruited are not paid, they can't support the large number of people!

General Yuxi put it down and said, "It's going to be a hard time again." "The little money I saved has been used up. Now I just hope that God will open his eyes, this year is a good year. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to live this day.

This time, it took only three months to capture the two provinces, which is very fast. benefited from natural disasters, but because of the drought, many people could not survive to rob the rich and those rich officials, and those rich families trotted with gold and silver after knowing that the Northwest Army was coming. Therefore, the Northwest Army captured these two places and got less booty. It is not the same as when the army was raised to occupy the northwest, and this vacancy needs to be filled.

Xu Wu said: "No matter how bitter it is, it's just this time." When the harvest is ready, the day will be better. ”

Yuxi smiled bitterly and said: "Half of the places have reduced taxes this year, and no matter how good the harvest is, there will not be much tax collection." At present, there are still expenses for the war. But the millions of soldiers and horses are only paid tens of millions of dollars a year, plus the expenses of officials, it will be a headache just to calculate. "Yuxi, this is not counting the expenses such as the replacement of clothes and equipment for those soldiers and horses, otherwise it will be even more.

Xu Wu wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. When he was fighting, he still felt that there were too few soldiers and horses. But when he heard the princess say this, he knew that the more soldiers and horses, the more money he burned.

The room fell silent.

After a while, Xu Wucai said: "Princess, when the war is over, let them be like the soldiers in Yucheng and cultivate the fields by themselves." In this way, at least rations are saved. ”

Yuxi's words made Xu Wu unable to continue: "Grain and grass can be saved, but military salaries are indispensable." ”

Xu Wu was silent.

The pillar shouted outside: "Princess, Lord Yuan asks to see." "This is Yuan Ying coming.

Yuxi and Yuan Ying talked about this for a long time, and when they left, Yuan Ying had a solemn face.

After Yuan Ying left, Yuxi sent someone to call Tan Tuo and Liu Biyuan over. Liu Biyuan took over An Zike's position and became the political envoy of the northwest.

Tan Tuo heard what Yuxi said, but did not interject. War is originally a matter of burning money. In this war, all the family resources have been wiped out, and within two years, I don't want to fight again.

Hearing Yuxi talk about the battle situation in Hubei, Tan Tuo said: "Princess, if you still want to attack Shudi, the war will not be over in three months!" According to the current process, Hubei can be taken in a month at most. In a month, they can fully support it, but if they attack Shudi, there is no way to predict what the situation will be. However, no matter how long the war dragged on, there was not so much financial support in the rear.

Yuxi said: "It depends on what the prince means." However, Shu is rich in resources, and it would be great if it could be defeated. ”

The bigger the territory, the better, but it depends on whether you can afford it. Tan Tuo said: "Princess, but now that the finances are tight, I'm afraid I won't be able to support it." "To fight a war, you not only rely on strong soldiers and strong horses, but also depend on whether your family is thick or not.

Yuxi also had a headache about this, so he specially asked Tan Tuo to come over to discuss this matter. Yuxi hopes to take down Shu in one go. But if the war drags on for too long, then hold off for a while, and wait for them to slow down. Anyway, Shudi has been surrounded by them on three sides, and it won't be too difficult to fight.

This talk is about getting dark. When Yuxi walked out of the study, his face was tired, the stall was getting bigger and bigger, and the burden was getting heavier and heavier.

At night, Yuxi had to take care of the triplets by herself, and was persuaded by Mama Quan to go back to the main house to rest: "If you fall ill, not only the inner courtyard will be chaotic, but the outer courtyard will be chaotic." I'm here with Mother Blue, so don't worry. ”

Yuxi couldn't, and finally went back to the house to sleep.

The next day, Master Yang came over. Looking at Yuxi, Master Yang said with a smile: "Princess, today is the day for the prince to take a medicinal bath. "Brother Hao has been taking medicinal baths since he was one and a half years old, twice a month, and he has never stopped in the past year.

Brother Hao'er's body shook when he saw Master Yang, and he hurriedly hugged Yuxi's shoulders and said, "Mother, I'm not going." "Brother Hao'er soaked in a medicinal bath, and Master Yang would also give him a meridian activation, which was very painful. So every time Brother Hao finished soaking in the medicinal bath, he had to be taken out of the medicinal bath by Master Yang.

Yuxi touched Brother Hao'er's forehead and said, "Good, go with Master Yang, and wait for Huiniang to come and pick you up." Yuxi knew that Brother Hao'er's medicinal bath was different from her, but even if she knew, she couldn't stop her. Master Yang said that soaking in this medicinal bath since he was a child will have great benefits if he practices martial arts in the future. For the sake of his son's future, no matter how distressed he is, he has to endure it. But seeing Brother Hao crying so sadly, Yuxi's eyes also turned red.

Meilan didn't know how to comfort Yuxi, and said cautiously: "Princess, it's time to go to the front yard." ”

Yuxi nodded and said, "Let's go!" Now I don't want Brother Hao to suffer, and when she grows up, she will have to suffer more crimes, and for Brother Hao, she can only be a ruthless mother.
