When King Xuan came to Taiyuan City this time, Emperor Chunqing specially assigned two imperial physicians to his son to avoid having a headache and fever, and the local doctor would not be able to use it.

King Xuan brought an imperial physician in the military camp and left a mansion in the city.

The prince summoned him, and the imperial physician immediately came over to take the pulse of Master Xu. The pulse was consistent. When asked again, he learned that Master Xu's menstrual period had been postponed for a month, he must have been pregnant.

The imperial physician, Eunuch Liu, and Yulan all congratulated the two masters. King Xuan was even happier than winning the battle, and looked at Xu with a smile.

When Xiangyun met the prince's joyful gaze, she felt very guilty. According to her true identity, she was not qualified to serve the prince. Now she was pregnant with the prince's flesh and blood. If the truth could be hidden all the time, then there was naturally nothing to worry about. She was afraid that one day when the prince found out that he was deceived and would be neglected with the child.

For a moment, Xiangyun felt that she was both sorry for the prince and the child.

At night, King Xuan still stayed at Xiangyun.

"It's a good thing to be happy, why are you worried?" King Xuan naturally noticed her strangeness and asked with her hand.

The prince has always been very gentle to her. Regarding whether to give birth to this child, Xiangyun asked: "Prince, although my father is a Shangshu, my mother died early, and my reputation is not good. I can't be worthy of the prince. Now I am favored by the prince and have favors. In the future, the prince will get tired of me. It's nothing if I am neglected by myself. I'm afraid that the prince will get tired of this child because of my low status. If so, wouldn't he be too pitiful to give birth to him?"

A child who is not loved by anyone will live a hard life. If the prince cannot give her a promise, Xiangyun would rather not have the child born.

When King Xuan heard this, his brows became tighter and tighter.

What does it mean that she is alone and is neglected? It means that she doesn’t care about his favor, and it doesn’t matter whether he comes or not?

There are children, and he no longer likes Princess Xie, Concubine Zhang, and has fulfilled the responsibilities of a father to educate Brother Xuan and Brother Shuo. Xu is the first woman he cares about. The child born to Xu, regardless of gender, will be flattered by Mingzhu. How can he say that he has disliked?

When he was happy, he said these depressing words. King Xuan wanted to scold her, but a hint of chill suddenly came from his chest. King Xuan looked down and found that she was crying secretly.

King Xuan suddenly remembered her life experience again. He had lost his mother since he was a child, and his father did not care about her, and his stepmother threw her into a nunnery. She must be afraid that she would lose favor in the future and that her children would become as pitiful as her, so she would be so uneasy.

Since she entered the mansion, she has always been timid and cautious, and she didn't even dare to be favored. She went to look for him in the middle of the night in order to avoid others. This is the result of too much suffering when she was young. If she had elders who carefully took care of her and Zhang, she would not even dare to have children?

King Xuan himself has no answer for how long he will spoil her, but the child in her womb, and even in the future, King Xuan can make a promise: "No matter who my biological mother is, I will arrange the best education for him and raise him to grow up. You can raise your fetus with peace of mind, so don't think about it."

Xiangyun asked again: "If I made any unforgivable mistakes, will the prince still love this child?"

King Xuan smiled. With her courage, she was very surprised to make mistakes and made unforgivable mistakes. She looked down on herself too much.

As the beauty asked this question, King Xuan really understood what she meant, that was to act coquettishly at him, wanting to hear sweet words.

"Yes, even if you have committed the crime of beheading, I still love this child." Lifting her chin, King Xuan said with a smile.

Xiangyun didn't joke and stretched out a little finger at him.

King Xuan looked at her in confusion.

Xiangyun explained: "There is a folk nursery rhyme, 'Holding on the hook, it will not change for a hundred years', which means that if two people agree on something, they will never change after pulling the hook, and they will definitely do it. The prince and I will believe you."

The last thing she did with her brother in my memory was Lagou. The brother said he would bring her candy back for her to eat.

Xiangyun didn't know if her brother had forgotten this agreement, but she didn't.

There was a light in her eyes, as if to her, the Lagou for a child playing house was more effective than the black and white text.

King Xuan smiled and hooked her fingers seriously.

Xiangyun also smiled.

"Teach the baby well and try to give birth to a fat boy." King Xuan said, kissing her head. With a son, he asked her to be named a concubine.

Xiangyun nodded obediently.

In a hurry, King Xuan returned to the military camp.

The ministers were not wrong. Now may not be the best time for the Northern Expedition. The soldiers fought hard. Every small victory was exchanged for the soldiers with flesh and blood. What was even more heavy was that sometimes countless soldiers were still defeated after countless casualties, and the territory they had only made was immediately snatched back by the Hu people.

The situation was tense, and King Xuan only returned to the city once every two or three months, coming and leaving in a hurry, sometimes even the night was just around the corner.

As autumn became colder, the soldiers were thin in clothes, but there was no hope of victory. King Xuan cherished the soldiers and handed the letter to Beijing, hoping that his father would quit. Soon Emperor Chunqing wrote back to him, scolding his son, asking his son to find a way to recruit soldiers in the local area, and the court would send imperial guards, food, and cotton coats to come one after another. The Northern Expedition could not be won, and the war continued.

King Xuan felt his father's determination. Since the war continued, King Xuan immediately ordered the Fucheng County and Towns around Taiyuan to recruit males to join the army. As long as the people were willing to join the army, regardless of what he or his family had committed in the past, the court would not pursue any investigation. If the merit was made on the battlefield, he would still be rewarded for merit. Prisoners in prison and even death row prisoners could be exempted from crimes.

As soon as this order was issued, the men who served the court enthusiastically joined the army. The prisoners and fugitives who were not interested in serving the court but wanted to be exempted from punishment also joined the army with the encouragement of their families. Even the bandits who occupied the mountain and became king rushed out of the bandit's nest and rushed to the battlefield with great momentum, vowing to earn military merit, to win a wife and son, and to glorify their ancestors.

King Xuan, who was supervising the battle, was not relaxed. He either discussed tactics with the generals or studied the arrangement of troops and formations against the grassland. During the truce, he personally supervised the soldiers to practice martial arts, and even fought with the soldiers. When the station was opened, King Xuan no longer hid behind to watch the battle, but instead put on his armor to fight to kill the enemy.

The first time he killed the enemy was that he couldn't suppress his blood. He had seen too many deaths with his own eyes. King Xuan no longer regarded killing enemies as a stimulating game. He only knew that if he killed one more enemy soldier, he might kill a few fewer soldiers on his side and end the war sooner.

King Xuan lived on the battlefield this year.

One day he was walking in the military camp, and suddenly he heard a loud voice showing off his past glory, saying that he was a bandit, who had a good life with a robbery, and he robbed the rich and helped the poor. Later, he stole a lady from a wealthy family as his wife. The lady even gave birth to a son for him and looked down on him. As soon as he became pregnant, he asked him to make contributions on the battlefield and strive to get rid of the identity of a bandit as soon as possible, so that the mother and son could go out to see people with dignity.

A soldier despised and said, "Your wife is not good enough. You know how to make meritorious deeds. If you don't regard your life as your life, you won't see any blood on the battlefield. She knows nothing. She probably hopes that you will die on the battlefield. She can remarry a good man with her children..."

Before the soldier finished speaking, he was pressed and beaten by the bandit-born loud voice and said, "Your wife is not good! My wife is a lady from a family. She has read the Four Books and Five Classics and talks about the great principles of being a serious person. If you don't understand, shut up. If you dare to say that my wife is not right, I will break your pig's head!"

"Master Xue, stop, you really want to deal with it with the military order!" Someone next to him came to fight and finally pulled the two of them apart.

The beaten one was not convinced and shouted, "You are the one who despised her first. I will offend you after saying a few words. What's this called?"

Mr. Xue cursed: "It doesn't matter if my wife says it, no matter who wants you to talk too much!"

The person who was persuading the fight next to him smiled and advised the one who was beaten: "You are stupid. Mr. Xue wants his wife and children. You are showing off to us. You are serious. I heard Mr. Xue praise him that his wife is Guanyin who came to earth, so beautiful! Mr. Xue is willing to join the army himself, so he wants to let Guanyin live a good life with him!"

The grievance of being beaten: "Then he said it earlier..."

They are all rough men, and they start to do something if they have a disagreement. After explaining clearly, they become good friends.

King Xuan listened as a joke, and after listening, he returned to his tent.

The bandit misses his wife, and King Xuan also misses his beautiful woman. Calculate the day and will give birth in the next few days. He is not by his side, so I wonder if she will be afraid.

Two days later, heavy snow fell on the grassland, and it was impossible to start fighting before the snow melted. King Xuan took advantage of this opportunity and rushed back to Xuancheng.

"The prince is back!" Eunuch Liu hasn't seen his master for three months. When he saw that his master was dark and thin, he felt so distressed.

The first thing King Xuan cared about was Xu: "Has he born?"

Eunuch Liu laughed as soon as he heard this: "No, the little master kicked Master Xu hard the day before yesterday. Master Xu thought he was going to give birth, so he quickly gave the order, but the little master didn't want to come out again and stayed in Master Xu's stomach!"

King Xuan strode towards the backyard while listening.

The houses here are covered with ground dragons, warm and warm. King Xuan took off his hips and threw them to Magnolia, and his eyes kept falling on the beautiful face of Xiaoying looking at him. After so long, Xu's face was a little plump and her belly was big. She was afraid of the cold and dressed more like a ball than others, but her face was still as beautiful as a fairy.

"Did you catch a cold in winter?" King Xuan sat on the couch and asked while holding her.

Xiangyun smiled and shook her head. She was pregnant and the people around her took care of her very carefully. The midwife invited her also asked her to go out for a walk every day, saying that she was a midwife.

She looks good and feels relieved. King Xuan didn't know what to say, so he just held her little hand and rubbed it constantly.

Xiangyun's tender skin and flesh were hurt by his calloused hands.

King Xuan missed her too much and couldn't rub her, so he hugged her in his arms and kissed her mouth from her stomach.

This relative was like a fire falling into a dry firewood pile. Neither of them could bear to part with him, and they just wanted to have a happy time when they entered the tent immediately.

Even though I hadn't kissed enough, Xiangyun's belly suddenly hurt. It was not just a few times, but it continued to hurt.

She still held back and waited for the prince to let go of her, Xiangyun said nervously: "Prince, I seem to be giving birth."

King Xuan immediately turned off the fire and quickly asked the midwife to come and help.

Everything was ready, and the midwife smiled and said to the man who was guarding Master Xu's side: "As soon as the prince came back, the little master was anxious to see his father and couldn't wait to come out and see you."

King Xuan was very helpful. He gently touched Xu's big belly and said warmly: "It's hard for your mother to be pregnant. You can come out soon, don't bother her for too long."

Xiangyun's belly moved, wondering if the child was responding to the father.

However, his reputation as the father was obviously useless. Xiangyun hurt her for a day and a night, and then she gave birth to a young son weighing six pounds at dusk the next day. Fortunately, both mother and son were safe.

Xiangyun was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep shortly after giving birth.

King Xuan sat beside her with a cradle in his arms. No one knew better than him how afraid of pain she was. When he looked at his son in his arms, King Xuan's eyes were sore.

He wanted to spend more days with her and hug her son she had worked so hard to give birth to, but the soldiers on the front line also left their hometown and missed their wives and could not be reunited. As a prince, he should set an example. If he stayed in the city for too long, the soldiers would feel disappointed.

After kissing his son and kissing his own woman, King Xuan left cruelly.

Xiangyun woke up and found out that the prince had left, leaving only a note for her.
