Chapter 724: The Second Daughter's Heart
Although the battle in Liaodong was about to break out, both the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty were still preparing in an orderly manner, after all, this was a decisive battle with hundreds of thousands of troops.
For the Ming Dynasty, if it is defeated, Sun Chengzong's hard work in Liaodong for several years will be ruined, the Jiangning army will also be greatly damaged, and the Ming Dynasty will return to the defensive position of a few years ago.
For the Manchu Qing Dynasty, this battle is even more important, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a matter of life and death, once defeated, Nurhachi and his sons have worked hard for decades will be all in vain, and the entire Qing Dynasty will cease to exist.
The Manchus will not forget how they slaughtered Liaodong, which originally had more than two million Han Chinese, over the years, to only a few hundred thousand remaining. Once the Ming Dynasty wins, let alone the Qing Dynasty, the entire Manchu people will probably become history.
Although Xiamen is thousands of miles away from Liaodong, the people here still feel the breath of the great war.
Groups of sergeants began to intensify their training, and warships and cargo ships began to assemble in Xiamen. Carts full of supplies began to sail towards the wharf, and the sergeants and porters of the baggage battalion who had been waiting at the wharf for a long time began to carry the supplies onto the cargo ship.
Yang Feng and his generals were also very busy, especially Yang Feng, who had to deal with more things every day, and countless pieces of information and official documents were sent to his desk like a stream.
After reviewing the last document, Yang Feng stretched his waist, he casually picked up the tea next to him and took a sip, found that the tea had become cold, put the tea back on the desk and shouted.
"Someone's coming!"
With the sound of footsteps, a maid with bright eyes and bright teeth and a pale green gauze robe walked in quickly, and said in a crisp voice after arriving at Yang Feng.
"Master Hou, what do you command?"
Yang Feng pointed to the teacup, hesitated for a moment and said, "You...... You're Cai'er, change me for a hot cup of tea. ”
"Yes!"
The maid stepped forward with broken steps, picked up the teacup and took a few steps back: "The slave will change the tea for you, and there are ...... The slave is Yue'er. ”
"Uh...... Okay, okay, I got it. Yang Feng coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed, he had been in contact with the twin sisters for a short time, and the two looked exactly the same, it was really difficult to tell the difference.
Soon, Yue'er brought over a cup of hot tea, and Yang Feng took a sip and asked, "What about Milia and Kanaya, I remember that they should be on duty today." ”
Yue'er replied obediently: "Zhezhe and Mrs. Bumu Butai have been a little unhappy in the past two days, so today Mrs. Tu Niang and Mrs. Xianniang accompanied Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe and Mrs. Bumu Butai to the Sanhe Temple outside the city to offer incense, and Milia and Kanaya also went to serve. ”
"They're not happy?"
Yang Feng was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that since he knew that the Jiangning army was going to expedition to Liaodong again, Zhezhe and Da Yu'er's behavior was a little abnormal, and they hadn't come over to accompany him for several nights, but he had been very busy these days and hadn't noticed the abnormality of the second daughter.
Sighing lightly, Yang Feng didn't know what to say.
In fact, he understands the mood of Da Yu'er and Zhezhe's two daughters, as they follow Yang Feng for a long time, after learning more and more about the strength of the Jiangning army, they also have a premonition that this time the Jiangning army is on an expedition to Liaodong, and their former husbands may be more than lucky.
Although since they decided to follow Yang Feng to Daming to start a new life, they have made up their minds to make a break with everything in the past, but some things are not something that can be parted with.
Although the second daughter felt uncomfortable, she couldn't tell Yang Feng about this kind of thing.
They can't say, Xianggong, for the sake of Huang Taiji is our ex-husband, can you let him go?
Depressed, they could only compete with themselves, but fortunately, Zheng Toniang and Hai Lanzhu found out about the second daughter's heart in time, so they took the initiative to take them to the temple outside the city to offer incense, and by the way, they scattered their hearts.
After being stunned for a while, Yang Feng waved his hand, "That's it, let's go, it's okay to go and relax."
It wasn't until the evening that Hai Lanzhu and the girls returned, and when they had dinner, Yang Feng specially said that he would rest with Zhezhe and Da Yu'er tonight, and the second daughter would naturally not object.
That night, Yang Feng rested in Zhezhe and Da Yuer's room.
After a few clouds and rains, the second daughter was already physically exhausted, and she could barely move a finger in Yang Feng's arms.
Yang Feng kissed the two daughters on the cheeks, and asked softly, "You have been a little unhappy in the past two days, is it because I am going to go to Liaodong?" ”
has always been straightforward, and Da Yu'er, who has a saying, was silent for a while before saying: "My husband wants to fight for the country, this is a serious matter, we women shouldn't have said anything, but Bumu Butai and I are with Your Majesty after all...... With Huang Taiji and his wife, when I think of this, my aunt and I feel a little ...... It's a little uncomfortable.
My sister and my aunt saw that I had something on my aunt's mind, so they took me and my aunt to go out of the city to relax. ”
Speaking of this, Da Yu'er secretly looked at Yang Feng's face and found that the other party showed no obvious signs of anger, and said with some worry: "Husband, you won't be upset about this, right?" ”
"Not really."
Yang Feng shook his head.
"I can understand your feelings, but this is a national event after all. Think about it from another angle, if it is my Ming who is weak today, if Huang Taiji leads the Manchu Eight Banners army to the Central Plains, do you think he will show mercy to my subordinates because of you?
But don't worry, if you allow it, I can ...... this expedition."
"No need husband."
Zhezhe stretched out his slender hand.
"Husband, don't worry, since Bumu Butai and I chose to follow my husband, we have already decided to completely break with the past, and I don't want to affect you because of my relationship with Bumu Butai.
The battlefield has no eyes, if we delay the major affairs of the country because of us, and then affect your future, Bumu Butai and I will become sinners. ”
"Rest assured."
Yang Feng smiled.
"It's not going to affect me. And I can also tell you that Huang Taiji's health has not been good in the past two years, according to our spies lurking in Shengjing, Huang Taiji's health has become worse and worse in recent years. I often have nosebleeds from time to time, and in severe cases, I will even faint, and it is estimated that I will not be alive for a few years. ”
"What?"
Zhezhe and Da Yu'er couldn't help but be shocked, although they had already broken off the relationship between husband and wife, but at first glance, when they heard that their former husband had not lived for a few years, they couldn't help but be a little shocked and sad for a while.
"Actually, it's nothing, I guess it's because of long-term obesity...... Forget it, let's not talk about it. ”
Yang Feng shook his head helplessly, Huang Taiji's disease is a typical hypertension caused by obesity, which induces coronary heart disease, this disease is quite tricky even in later generations, let alone this era.
In this era when there are no quick-acting heart pills and blood pressure medications, Huang Taiji who has this disease is almost incurable.
