Midsummer is coming, the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, but the war on the front line in Hebei is getting smoother day by day, and the messenger with the red flag on his back gallops into Yanjing every day, bringing good news one after another. Li Jing received these messages every day in the Forbidden Palace, and he was in a good mood. Later, he simply issued an order and moved to Wutai Mountain, Daizhou, Shanxi Province. It was called a summer retreat, but most of the officials of the entire military department and the cabinet departments of the three provinces went with them, leaving only a few troops to stay, and a full 50,000 people of the guards were ordered.

After dinner that day, Li Jing came to Wan'er's residence, Wan'er's eldest son Dexiang was ten years old, according to the rules, and was now training in the Spartan training camp, and the second son Derui was also seven years old and had just entered the camp. After the two sons who entered the camp, Wan'er also gave birth to two daughters and a son, all three of whom are not yet seven years old, and are now studying in the Yuqing Palace Kindergarten in the palace. According to the rules, children over the age of three and under the age of seven are not allowed to meet their mothers unless they meet the fifteenth day of the new year.

This time, Li Jing was happy and gave a special order to let the old princess in the palace and all the concubines drive Wutai Mountain together, along with the children in the kindergarten, and although they also have to study in Wutai Mountain, they can reunite with their mother along the way. This is the first time in the Forbidden Palace, and it can really be described as Wang En's might. Wan'er was also very happy, she gave birth to five children to Li Jing, the older two went to the harsh training camp, and the remaining three also entered the palace kindergarten, and they were not allowed to meet at ordinary times, she accompanied the old princess and the eldest concubine all day long, and sometimes felt lonely.

At this moment, when I heard the female official come in and report that the King of Qin had arrived, she hurriedly took the Defu and the thirty-nine and fifty-one mothers who had just been brought home to welcome out of the palace. Bend down and salute to take the ride.

Li Jing stepped forward and pulled up his five-year-old son Li Defu. While touching the short hair on his head. patted the hands of the two little daughters one by one, and said to Wan'er: "Get up, I've been too busy this time to turn over your sign." But I've been thinking about you all the time, and I still have a lot of things to discuss with the provincial cabinet tonight, so I'll take a moment to see how many of you are. Early the day after tomorrow, I will all go to Wutai Mountain. ”

Wan'er hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The king has a lot of opportunities, and he can still think about the concubines. The concubine is grateful, how dare she have extravagant hopes, I just hope that the king will not work too hard, keep the body first, and they will be very happy with the concubine body and virtue. Wan'er's words were very decent, even if Li Jing hadn't come to her for a long time, she didn't show half of it. Li Jing was very satisfied with Wan'er's general knowledge, so he pulled Wan'er to sit beside him, "It's really difficult to start a business." Lonely night clothes and food, dare not relax. Lonely is to know you, empathetic, gentle and considerate, take care of the mother on weekdays, educate the children, but never interfere with other things, commendable, lonely in the heart. Today I will tell you a good news, this time I went to Wutai Mountain, called summer vacation, in fact, the situation in Hebei is about to change greatly. ”

Wan'er asked with some worry: "Big change?" Is there something unexpected? ”

"Well, it's a bit of a surprise." Li Jingha smiled, put Wan'er's pair of palms like green onions and jade in the palm of his palm, and gently stroked it, "It's just an unexpected joy, the original estimate made by the political affairs hall that the battle of Hebei will be at least at the end of the year, and it may even be fought next year to completely pacify the two feudatories." But now, the situation is gratifying, the war has just begun, and the results are much better than predicted, and according to the current situation, the previous plan has been too conservative. After re-studying, the provincial cabinet and the government unanimously agreed that the external situation was now very good, which was very favorable to us, and the two towns of Hebei were completely isolated, and it was difficult for them to have reinforcements, so they should take advantage of this opportunity to advance the real offensive originally scheduled for autumn and pacify the two towns in this summer. This time, Wutai was left alone, which was also to suppress the Hedong region and prevent the towns of Hedong and Hezhong from interfering in Hebei at this time. There are 50,000 elites sitting in Daizhou, and once Hedong dares to move, Gu will immediately wave his troops south and attack Hedong directly. And if the war in Hebei goes well, and we can capture the whole of Hebei in the summer and pacify the two feudatories, then Hedong will be our next goal. ”

"Ah, is it true, the Hebei Second Domain will be pacified soon?"

Li Jing looked at Wan'er's surprised, happy and gentle face, and couldn't help smiling slightly, "What, can Lone still lie to you?" As early as five years ago, Gu was ready to pacify Hebei. It's just that at that time, although Lu Long and Cangjing were controlled, there was Li Keyong in the west, Khitan and Xi in the north, and the backyard was restless, how to clear the vestibule? This time, the time is finally ripe, after a few years of unity, we conquered the north outside the Guanwai, and occupied Daibei and Yiwu, the soldiers and horses are more sophisticated, and the grain and grass warehouses are also surplus again, especially the two towns of Hebei are completely isolated by us, and now the Central Plains has begun to fight again, and we are too busy to take care of ourselves, it is a good time for us to collect Hebei. In three months, at most three months, the second town of Hebei will be completely pacified. As soon as Hebei is flat, the next one will be Hedong, and then go south to the Central Plains, wave the west into Guanzhong, and the world can be determined. ”

Chasing the Central Plains is actually like a snowball, at the beginning, the most difficult time, first to pinch the loose snow into a tight ball, and then to roll the snow. At first, the snowball was still loose, and if it hit a stone stump or something, it would fall apart, so you need to be careful. However, if you wait for the snowball to roll, it will already be formed and difficult to destroy, and the snow on the ground will only be stuck by the snowball and become part of the snowball that is getting bigger and bigger.

When Wan'er heard this, her heart was also excited. Although he stays in the deep palace on weekdays, he never interferes in matters outside the palace. But she is still very clear about the situation outside, she knows that with the strength of the Qin Domain, after the two towns of Hebei are laid, the entire east of the Tang Dynasty will really be the land of the Qin Domain, from then on, outside the Guan, Hebei and Shandong Jianghuai are connected into a line, from the northwest from the Hetao, to the Yanliu Gouzhu Mountain, Wutai Mountain until the towering Taihang Mountains, and then to the canal in Henan, and then across the Huai River, connecting the Dabie Mountains, and the vast sea in the east, this huge area has been the territory of the Qin Kingdom since then. It can be said that the strategic situation of the entire Qin domain is in a good situation of sitting back and relaxing, controlling Hebei, pillowing east and even Hedong, and relying on the outside of the pass, and the foundation of the hegemony of the Qin domain has been formed. She is proud of her husband in her heart, this man will become the king of kings and the pride of heaven.

"From now on, no one can stop the pace of Gu seizing the world. Wan'er, you gave birth to three sons and two daughters, they will become the king and princess of the new empire in the future, you have suffered a lot with me before, and in the future, you can enjoy happiness with peace of mind. ”

Wan'er was a little shocked when she heard Li Jing say that their children would become kings and princesses of the new empire in the future. If the husband becomes the emperor, his daughter will naturally be a princess, but can his son also become a king? However, she suppressed the excitement in her heart and did not ask Li Jing.

Li Jing chatted with Wan'er for a while, and then accompanied Wan'er's mother to have some more food, and asked Wan'er to take care of her mother Han more before leaving. Originally, Li Jing didn't plan to let Han go, but Wutai Mountain is known as the four major Buddhist holy places in Middle Earth, and there are even "Golden Wutai, Silver Emei, Tongputuo, Tie Jiuhua" said, Han has always worshiped Buddha, and Han insisted on going to Wutai Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha, Li Jing thought about it, and this time going to Wutai Mountain was not a march to fight, so he agreed.

After talking for a while, praising and praising Wan'er, Li Jing left.

Although some ministers advised Li Jing's golden body not to go to Wutai Mountain at this time, he should not go to Wutai Mountain, which is close to Taiyuan, Hedong, and suffered from the upheaval, and bluntly said that the body of a daughter could not sit down, and some people said that the most important thing at present is to pacify the two towns of Hebei, and to contain Hedong, only need to send a general to Yanmen. The prince of Qin led a large army to go, and if he didn't get it right, the Chang'an court would be worried, and if he overreacted, it would not be good. However, Li Jing has already decided in his heart that this time he will go to Wutai Mountain, neither to worship Buddha nor to escape the summer, but now that Hebei is about to be pacified, the Central Plains is still in chaos, Hedong Town is now leaderless, and most of the elite are still far away in Henan, and this is the time when Hedong is empty. Previously, Li Jing did not fight Hedong, it was because Hebei was not peaceful. Now that Hebei is about to be pacified, Li Jing naturally moved his attention to Hedong Town, and moved to Wutai Mountain north of Taiyuan, precisely to establish a former enemy general headquarters here, so as to respond to the changes in the situation on the front line in the fastest time and make the latest decisions. The 50,000 Guards Army is an assault force, and once the time is ripe, Li Jing can use this accompanying force as an assault cluster at any time and directly attack Taiyuan in the south.

As for the issue of grain supply, after the pacification of Daibei, Li Jing did not transport grain out of Shanxi again, but continued to secretly transport grain to Shanxi Province every year, and had already stored 4 million stone of military grain at the Yanmen Pass in Daizhou and the Chitang Pass and Shiling Pass in Xinzhou, and in addition, there were still 10 million stone of grain stored in the three passes of Yizhou and Mozhou in Hebei Province and between the Yingzhou River across the mountain, which was enough.

Whether it was the external surrounding situation or Qin Fan's own preparations, everything was ready. The opportunity must not be missed, the time will not come again, Li Jing sees the opportunity, and will not miss it.

During the discussion, there was a sudden loud report outside, the guards in front of the palace reported to the palace, and Hebei reported urgently.

Li Jing took the urgent report and opened it to read it quickly.

A moment later, Li Jing read a book and put the letter on the case. The Chinese martial arts of the palace looked at Li Jing, but he couldn't see any clues from his face, and he didn't know whether the urgent report that had just been delivered was good or bad.

While he was guessing, Li Jing, who was at the top, suddenly laughed, "Everyone, the good news I just received is that Weibo Town has been pacified!" ”

Like a pebble, thrown into a calm pond, there were ripples, more like a thunderbolt, falling on the hearts of everyone in the hall, shocking them one by one, unbelievable, Weibo Town, calm? (To be continued......)
