Good luck and marriage: marrying the governor of Dongchang

Chapter 320 A Bowl of Ginseng Soup

On a dark and windy night, with a sharp arrow piercing the night sky, the peaceful atmosphere was completely destroyed at once.

The camp of the Xiliang army was raided by the Northern Qi army.

The long night, fighting, bloodshed, death...became the marching song of the night.When it was daylight, the former Xiliang Northwest camp on the Weihe side was in a mess, piles of corpses were randomly piled up like hills, and even the flag of the Xiliang army was thrown on the ground by the enemy.

Crowds of Northern Qi troops stepped on the corpses of Xiliang soldiers, happily celebrating their victory.

With the fall of the Northwest Army Camp, several prefectures and counties near the Army Camp also became an appetizer for the Northern Qi Army.The people who escaped quickly took their families and left their homes, while the families of those who escaped slowly were slaughtered.

No one expected that after several years of development, Xiliang, which has become prosperous and strong, would be trampled into such a horrible state by the Northern Qi people again.

In the court hall, the emperor, who was still very weak, braced himself to go to the morning court.

"Do you have any plans to retreat from the enemy?" The successive defeats in the frontline battles made the emperor's irritability increase day by day.

After all the civil and military officials looked at each other in blank dismay, several powerful ministers came out one after another to give advice to the emperor.It's a pity that these remonstrances did not have much effect on resisting the Northern Qi army.

The emperor was furious, and patted the back of the dragon chair angrily, "You people open your mouth to relieve my worries and share, but keep your mouth shut for the sake of the country and society. But when the crisis comes, all of you will only fart and talk. What I want is how to resist the Northern Qi Dynasty A good strategy for the army, you bastards..."

Shen Qingli left Liang Jingcheng, and there was no news in the past two months.

Not only can he not be of much help to her as an emperor, but now he can't even handle the affairs in the court well.

This made the emperor both helpless and full of pain.

He couldn't help thinking of Lu Huaiqi again, if nothing happened to this powerful man, how could the territory of Xiliang allow the people of Northern Qi to meddle so wantonly.

With a long sigh, he slumped down on the dragon chair again.

"If Jiu Qiansui is still in court, I don't need to count on you bastards anymore..." He murmured softly.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were suddenly dumbfounded.

The emperor looked down at these officials, his eyes gradually becoming blank.In the end, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked through the officials to the blue sky and white clouds outside the hall.

Now, I can only pin my last hope on her...

I hope, God bless Xiliang.

Cangzhou city.

These days, the people in the streets and alleys are all discussing the war on the frontier.The streets and alleys were also disturbed by the reports of successive defeats, making the atmosphere extremely dignified.In a small teahouse on the street, the confidant lowered his hat and said cautiously to Gao Junshen who was beside him, "Master, our people have already found out. Shen Qingli has frequent fetal movements recently, and the mansion has invited many doctors to the mansion to treat her. We arrested two of the doctors who treated her, and the two doctors said that her pulse condition was unstable, her body was weak, and she was ready to give birth prematurely at any time."

Gao Junshen picked up the tea bowl in his hand and glanced at the house opposite the teahouse.The gate of the house was closed tightly, and the front of the gate was also deserted, with no visitors.

He drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp. The tea that was rough and unpalatable to him was now sweet and pure, even more delicious than the most expensive Junshan Yinzhen tea.

"Did you find out the rest? Where is Tong Wanjin...does he and Shen Qingli have any private contacts?" After all, he had suffered from Shen Qingli and his wife before, so Gao Junshen asked subconsciously.

His confidant knew him well, "Master, don't worry, Tong Wanjin is now a hundred and eight thousand miles away from Cangzhou. And I heard that he is being chased by a woman recently, so he probably can't care about Shen Qingli here. As for those old ministries before Lu Huaiqi, once Lu Huaiqi died, those officials in the Xiliang court would have already subdued and killed them, and there are not many who are still willing to follow the widow Shen Qingli faithfully."

It is an eternal truth in the world that people take tea to cool down.

Lu Huai has been arrogant all his life, when he was alive, countless people were forced to succumb to his majesty, how many people celebrated with him after he left.

Needless to say, helping Shen Qingli at this time, it is already very good to not make trouble for her.

While the two were talking, the closed door of the mansion was suddenly opened a crack from the inside.A boy hurried out the door.Not long after the boy left, a doctor with a medical box was dragged and knocked on the door and entered the house.

But not long after, the closed door was opened again, and this time it was a maid who hurried out.The servant girl left for about two cups of tea, and when she came back, there were already two old women by her side.

About an hour or two after the two old women went in, when the closed door was opened again, Zhang Zhang and Ran Mo appeared at the door again.

One of these two is Lu Huaiqi's bodyguard, and the other is Shen Qingli's personal maid.The two can be regarded as people who have seen the world.But at this moment, the expressions on the faces of the two of them were more solemn than the other.

After Gao Junshen took the expressions of the two into his eyes, he glanced at his confidant beside him.The confidant knew it, and immediately ordered their people to follow the two secretly.

This toss, back and forth.Near noon, the figures of Zhang Li and Ran Mo appeared at the gate of the mansion again.This time Zhang Li and Dianmo, one with a lot of doctors, and the other with a group of old women.

After two groups of people entered the gate mightily, the gate was closed again from the inside.

Gao Junshen's confidants then returned to him.

"Master, we have found out that Shen Qingli is about to give birth. But I heard that her delivery was not smooth, with heavy bleeding, and the baby is still stuffy in the stomach. So now they have brought in the doctor and the stable woman from the city .Master, this subordinate feels that now is a very good time, we can do it...so this subordinate has made his own decision..."

The confidant didn't continue to say the following words, but the meaning was already obvious.

Gao Junshen smiled noncommittally.

House.Zhu clasped his hands together, and he didn't know how many times he prayed to God.But watching people coming and going, hearing her daughter's heart-piercing cries one after another, she was so anxious that she had no idea at all.

Seeing Ran Mo and Zhang Zhang bringing another group of people into the mansion, Zhu's eyelids twitched, grabbed Ran Mo who was passing by her, and asked in a panic, "What's going on with Ali now, you don't follow her?" Let me be clear. I'm going crazy..."

Ran Mo patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, "Old lady, it's okay. Our lady is auspicious and has her own auspices, so she will definitely be able to save the day." Having said that, Ran Mo's worries are no less than those of Mrs. Zhu .

A few days ago, they wanted to catch Gao Junshen with a fake childbirth, but this old fox was full of tricks and was not easily fooled.Fortunately, the child in her womb was going to be born early, which caught them all by surprise.

"Ran Mo, don't lie to me. If Ali is really fine, why do you want so many doctors and Wen Po to come over? Tell me the truth." Zhu clung to Ran Mo's hand.

"Grandmother, what happened to my mother?" Mrs. Zhu was clinging to the ink, and in the corridor at the gate of the courtyard, Xiao Chengxi's anxious figure also appeared on the field.

The old one was already very difficult to deal with, and the young one's ink-stained eyelids also began to twitch violently.

"Old lady, Ran Mo said something disrespectful. Madam's current situation is not optimistic, but if you and Miss Chengxi continue to stay here, the lady inside will not be able to give birth with peace of mind. If you want slaves to tell you, why not... you first Take Miss Chengxi to the Bodhisattva to pray for his wife, and bless her to give birth to a child smoothly."

Ran Mo was well aware of Zhu's temperament of being frightened when things happened, and was afraid that if she continued to stay here, it would really distract everyone's attention, so she kindly proposed.

Upon hearing this, Zhu felt that what Ran Mo said made sense.Looking at Xiao Chengxi who had already gathered around him in a panic, she glanced at the delivery room with reluctance, her heart froze, and she directly pulled Xiao Chengxi away.

Xiao Chengxi opened her mouth to ask Mrs. Zhu about Shen Qingli's situation, and Ran Mo vaguely heard what Mrs. Zhu said to her in a low voice.Xiao Chengxi was also considered well-behaved, and finally disappeared around the corner of the yard with Mrs. Zhu.

Ran Mo frowned lightly, then turned around and entered the room.

In the room, several women and doctors were standing outside the screen and discussing in whispers.Through the screen, Ran Mo heard Shen Qingli's painful groans.

Ran Mo was in a hurry, temporarily ignoring those steady women and doctors, turned the screen and entered the back room.When she saw Shen Qingli lying on the bed, Ran Mo's heart sank suddenly, and her face turned pale.

On the bed, Shen Qingli's face was pale, her veins were bulging, and large beads of sweat were dripping down, making her so wet and sticky that she lost the slightest bit of life.

Ran Mo's eyes were sour, and tears fell down uncontrollably.

Why is her young lady's life so miserable, she has no husband to accompany her when she gives birth to a child.

Shen Qingli, who was on the bed, saw Ran Mo, endured the severe pain in her body and hurriedly called her to her.

"Has everything been arranged for my mother and Xi'er?" She asked with concern.

Ran Mo couldn't help holding Shen Qingli's hand, comforting, "Madam, don't worry, the old lady and the young lady are very worried about you, but they also know that they can't help you now, so they all stay outside."

The hair on Shen Qingli's forehead was already wet, she glanced at the window eaves weakly, just as she opened her lips to speak again, the pain in her abdomen hit her again.

Ran Mo looked over and saw that the blood gushing from her lower abdomen had quickly stained her skirt red.Ran Mo's heart trembled, and he turned around and let the stable women in.

A group of Wen women rushed forward, and Ran Mo was also squeezed out of the delivery room.

Outside the delivery room, Zhang Li listened to the cries of pain inside, his scalp went numb, and he walked back and forth violently.

Seeing Ran Mo being squeezed out of the delivery room, Zhang Li's eyes lit up, and he immediately approached her, opening his mouth to ask her about Shen Qingli's situation.

I don't know how long it took, but finally, there was a cry of a baby in the delivery room.

A steady woman happily came out of the delivery room with her baby in her arms, "Congratulations, she is a woman with a handle."

Ran Mo and Zhang Zhang glanced at the infant child at the same time, and then asked with concern, "How is my wife? Are you all right?"

The smile on Po Wen's face faded a little, "The mother's body is extremely weak, and she is lucky to be able to give birth to this little son safely. Now the doctor inside is treating her. You don't have to worry too much."

After listening to what Wen Po said, the strings in their hearts became even tighter.

In the delivery room, Shen Qingli was already weak.At this moment, a steady woman came in through the screen with a bowl of steaming ginseng soup.

"Ma'am, the doctor asked you to drink this warm soup first to slow down your body." Wen Po said quietly, and then brought the soup bowl in her hand to Shen Qingli's mouth.Shen Qingli lowered her eyes lightly, the ginseng soup in the bowl exuded a black thick and strange luster.
