Volume 4 is in the ascendant Chapter 528 Princess
Bai Tu did not dare to let Shi Xie come to Jinling.
Although Shi Xie lived to be over ninety years old in history when there was no Baitu effect, he is now an old man in his seventies. At this time, no matter how healthy he is, he may die at any time.
Even if a road was built from Jiaozhou to Jinling, it would still be a tiring journey. What if Shi Xie died twenty years earlier because of the White Rabbit Effect?
Bai Tu did not want to bear the infamy of plotting to murder the governor of Jiaozhou who had defected to him, so he simply asked Shi Xie to take care of his health in Jiaozhou.
But he did not refuse Shi Xie's request to send his second brother Shi Yi, his son Shi Hui, and another brother to Jinling...
This is also a symbol of Shi Xie's attempt to prove himself and that the Shi family has no ambitions!
In fact, Shi Xie had already learned that Liu Xie wanted to appoint him as the King of Nanyue, but he did not mention it to Bai Tu when he was in the signal tower.
After all, all kinds of thoughts popped up in Shi Xie's mind at that time, and he couldn't figure it out immediately.
However, Shi Xie quickly sorted out his thoughts afterwards and decided to take Liu Xie's enthronement as his "credential of surrender."
He quickly decided to abandon his previous idea - otherwise , Shi Xie wanted to retain some of the Shi family's power in Jiaozhou to ensure that if the Chu State was destroyed, the Shi family would still have the capital to join the next family.
This is also the reason why Shi Xie had been so "hesitant" before. Otherwise, Shi Xie also knew Shi Hui's ability. From the beginning, he was not trying to leave behind many benefits, nor was he really trying to make great progress for the Shi family...
Unfortunately, Shi Hui in history obviously did not understand or comprehend Shi Xie's painstaking efforts. In addition, Sun Quan was also overbearing. As soon as Shi Xie died, he arranged for a new governor of Jiaozhi and governor of Jiaozhou. This made Shi Hui angry and he directly raised an army to rebel against Wu...
Finally, after calming down, the whole family died without a fight!
Now with the emergence of mental telegraph, Shi Xie quickly gave up other ideas.
Just like that, the sixth year of Xingshun and the sixth year of Chuli unfolded in a very "fantasy" way!
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou, and the State of Chu jointly performed the annual drama.
As for the impact it brought, it was naturally that the majesty of the Han Dynasty, which had been "recruited" for several years and was still in the recovery period, was hit hard again.
The situation of the State of Chu was completely the opposite. Combined with the previous "Heaven-defying Jade Seal", it seemed that the State of Chu was destined by heaven!
Not to mention that the effect of "letting everyone know" was particularly far-reaching in its impact on the people, even within the Han royal family, this matter brought Liu Xie a lot of criticism.
even……
Several elders from the royal family secretly contacted Liu Bei and proposed to find a way to make Liu Xie "voluntarily" abdicate to Liu Bei!
Not to mention the difference in ability between Liu Xie and Liu Bei, Liu Bei was originally the most powerful of the six marquises who assisted the Han Dynasty, which made these clan members "have wild thoughts".
Some people began to have this idea after they were convinced that although Liu Bei came from a humble background and had a thin bloodline, he had deep feelings for the Han royal family and was a kind and courteous person.
After all, if Liu Bei became the emperor of Han, then Qingzhou and Xuzhou would be under the real control of the imperial court. Unlike now, it is difficult for the imperial court's orders to leave Chang'an. In their view, this would also be more able to control the hearts of other princes who assisted the Han Dynasty.
The embarrassing incident that Liu Xie caused this time also strengthened these people's thoughts.
However, Liu Bei declined the offer, thinking it was an unjust act.
However, the words had already been spoken, and other clan members naturally wanted to persuade him again. As a result, Liu Bei... burst into tears at this private banquet, showing that he only wanted to assist Liu Xie and did not want the authority of the Han Dynasty to be further reduced.
He also explained the pros and cons to several of his brothers and uncles - if it were Liu Bei, who had real power, it would not be so easy to guess the thoughts of other princes who assisted the Han Dynasty, and many ministers in the court would probably not be satisfied... Finally, Liu Bei swore to the sky that he would never reveal today's drunken words.
The clan members who had pushed for this matter had to give up. They couldn't tie Liu Bei up and force him to sit in that position, not to mention... they couldn't beat Liu Bei!
After the New Year, Bai Tu seemed very relaxed, calm and composed. Two months later, he began to prepare for an important event - Xiahou Juan's delivery and postpartum care.
In early March, Xiahou Juan gave birth.
There were also people waiting there early in the morning, and when she had abdominal pain and her water broke, she was immediately sent to the delivery room of the Chu Palace.
Awesome! There is a delivery room at home!
Although he had experience once, Bai Tu was still nervous this time. The people accompanying him outside also included Lu Lingqi and Xu Rong, who were inside last time.
At the beginning, Bai Qing and Lu Yan were also there, but the two children could not sit still for a while and were taken away by Deng Ai, who was already eleven years old, sensible and steady.
This time, Lu Bu was also waiting outside the delivery room...
Lu Lingqi glared at him, but it was not easy to say anything at this time .
Although the age and environment of pregnancy and childbirth are both first-class, Xiahou Juan is not as good as Lu Lingqi after all...
The more Bai Tu thought about it, the more anxious he became. Suddenly, his expression changed. He turned his head and said, "Lingqi, from now on, you will teach Rong'er martial arts every morning. You don't have to teach her any battlefield killer moves, but at least she should keep fit!"
Xu Rong: ???
"This... is not impossible, but I don't know if Rongrong can bear the hardship. After all, she has passed the appropriate age. Even if she doesn't aim to achieve anything, she still needs some hard work." Lu Lingqi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, but then nodded in agreement.
"You have to eat it even if you don't want to!" Bai Tu said domineeringly.
Xu Rong, who was standing by , wrinkled her face into a bun after hearing the wake-up time agreed upon by Lv Lingqi and her...
At any other time, Xu Rong would definitely argue with Bai Tu, but now with Xiahou Juan's cries of pain lingering around, Xu Rong had no intention of putting forward any conditions.
Fortunately, compared to Lu Lingqi's delivery, Xiahou Juan's delivery was faster - after all, Lu Lingqi gave birth to twins last time!
Soon a midwife came out and said to the daitu joyfully, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Your Majesty has given birth to a little princess. Both mother and daughter are safe!"
Gender equality is the "court correctness" of the Chu State, and calling for gender equality is also a national policy. Naturally... midwives, as the first profession to know the difference between men and women, are also trained!
This is working for the Chu Palace again. No matter whether you agree with it in your heart or not, you have to be emotionally full at this time, otherwise you will not even have a job.
Bai Tu was only relieved and happy at this time, and hurried into the delivery room.
"It's a pity that it's a girl... ahem, there's nothing wrong with girls!" Lu Bu frowned at first, then when he saw his daughter was bullying him again, he changed his words temporarily.
As a guard, Lu Lingqi could naturally follow in. Seeing that the queen could go in, Xu Rong followed in as well...
Although Lu Bu wanted to give some suggestions on the name and the like, since the occasion was not appropriate, he just waited outside.
