Zhao Shan noticed Wei Fengqing's hand resting on her lower abdomen, and her eyes suddenly brightened. He stood up and walked towards Wei Fengqing and asked, "Are you pregnant?"
Wei Fengqing hummed and smiled sweetly.
She is willing to get pregnant.
However, she was a little hesitant because she liked going to the battlefield and the feeling of galloping and fighting on the battlefield.
During these years in the army, Wei Fengqing spent countless efforts to train the Luoyang garrison and enhance the combat effectiveness of the Luoyang garrison.
Once you are pregnant, you have no access to the military. From pregnancy to childbirth, and considering that the child needs to be taken care of when young, I am afraid that for at least one or two years, I will no longer be able to contact the military.
This is something Wei Fengqing regrets.
Zhao Shan took Wei Fengqing's hand, asked Wei Fengqing to sit down, and said with a smile: "If you are pregnant, you need to take good care of the fetus and no more strenuous exercise."
"I understand!"
Wei Fengqing nodded in reply and continued: "Your Majesty, I don't want to leave the army. But I am pregnant and have no choice. It is difficult to make a decision for a while. I am worried that I will not be able to adapt to military life in one or two years after giving birth to the child."
Zhao Shan rubbed Wei Fengqing's hand and comforted him: "You think too much. Take good care of your baby now and wait until the baby is born. If you want to continue to lead troops, you can leave it to the people in the palace to take care of you."
"It's just people's thoughts. They are not static. They change little by little."
"Especially when it comes to children, it's very different. Your thoughts may be completely different before you have children than after you have children."
"So, there is no need to worry in advance."
"If you have a child and want to continue to lead the army, I will not object and will fully support you. If you do not want to lead the army, you must stay in the palace and take good care of the child. I also agree."
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "I'm not fooling you, I just want to tell you to do things step by step. Do your current things well first, and take good care of the baby. After giving birth to the baby, I will do whatever you want. Full support."
Wei Fengqing suddenly laughed.
The big stone hanging in my heart also fell to the ground, and she said softly: "I listen to your majesty, thank you, your majesty."
"You are my woman, what are you grateful for?"
Zhao Shan held Wei Fengqing's waist and said softly: "You are pregnant and are no longer suitable to lead troops. This Luoyang garrison must have a responsible general. Who do you think is suitable to take over?"
"Li Buyi!"
Wei Fengqing answered without hesitation.
Wei Fengqing admired Li Buyi's ability from the bottom of her heart after meeting him. He was worthy of being as famous as her grandfather.
Wei Fengqing analyzed: "Your Majesty, Li Buyi is highly skilled in martial arts and is a fierce general on the battlefield. Secondly, Li Buyi is familiar with the art of war, is better at training troops, and has rich fighting experience. Finally, the Luoyang garrison must only be loyal to Your Majesty and cannot have any involvement. Relationships. Li Buyi’s interpersonal relationships are simple and he is a suitable candidate.”
Zhao Shan was also thinking in his heart.
Li Buyi killed Sun Pojun, captured Zhao Rui, and cut off contact with Jingzhou. In addition, because Li Buyi used to have a very stubborn temper and offended many people, he had no interpersonal relationships, so he was indeed a suitable candidate.
There is no need to doubt Li Buyi's loyalty.
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "Since Feng Qing recommended him, I will arrange for him to succeed you and take charge of the Luoyang garrison."
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Wei Fengqing smiled sweetly.
Zhao Shan asked again: "Li Buyi is in charge of the Luoyang garrison and will fight with me. But Xiangyang needs a general to guard it to ensure that he can assist Su Wei in exterminating the small group of bandits and stabilizing the situation in Jingzhou. Who do you think is suitable?" "
Wei Fengqing replied: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a suitable candidate in the Luoyang garrison."
Zhao Shan asked: "Who?"
Wei Fengqing said quickly: "There is a general in the army, Qi Yuanjing. He is about thirty years old. He is very good at shooting. He is also good at leading troops and dares to fight. He is also rigorous in doing things and is familiar with the art of war. The only thing is that Qi Yuanjing is Qi Shanjun, the Minister of War. The son of Qi Shangshu. Even with this status, he has never used the title of Qi Shangshu and is very low-key."
Zhao Shan looked expectantly and smiled: "In that case, let me meet this Qi Yuanjing."
Immediately, Zhao Shan gave the order.
The soldiers went to notify him. Not long after, Qi Yuanjing entered the study, knelt down on one knee and said: "General Qi Yuanjing, pay homage to your majesty."
Zhao Shan looked up and down.
There was a smile in his eyes.
Qi Yuanjing was more than eight feet tall, with slender arms and a heavy back. At first glance, he looked like a strong and powerful general. In addition, Qi Yuanjing has thick eyebrows, big eyes, regular facial features, and a pair of bright tiger eyes.
The key is that Qi Yuanjing gives people the impression that he is not a naive and reckless man. Every move he makes is calm, and he is more intelligent and understanding.
This is the temperament of a wise general.
Zhao Shan ordered: "Give me a seat!"
The soldiers brought a stool, and Qi Yuanjing sat down with half his buttocks, hands on his knees, head held high, and he looked like he was sitting upright.
The posture is neither humble nor arrogant, and does not appear to be too nervous.
Zhao Shan was satisfied with Qi Yuanjing's attitude and said with a smile: "There are no outsiders here, so relax."
Qi Yuanjing said, "I accept the decree."
After answering, Qi Yuanjing's attitude remained neither humble nor arrogant, and did not go overboard in the slightest.
Zhao Shan said in a deep voice: "I heard from Feng Qing that you are Qi Shanjun's son?"
"yes!"
Qi Yuanjing answered directly.
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Your father, the Tiger King, is the Minister of the Ministry of War and has great power. With his energy, it is a very simple matter to assign you a position in the Ministry of War."
"Especially since you are around thirty, you are not young anymore. Why don't you work in the Ministry of War instead of joining the army as a top soldier?"
"Even if you have become a general, that's all. It's hard work in the army, sleeping in the open air, exposed to the sun and rain. But if you stay in the military department, in the prosperous place of the imperial capital, you don't need to worry about dying on the battlefield, your life is colorful. "
Zhao Shan asked: "It is good to stay in Luoyang, why not become an official in the court?"
Qi Yuanjing said: "The general is unwilling!"
Zhao Shan leaned forward slightly, his eyes were curious, and he said, "Why?"
A sharp look flashed across Qi Yuanjing's eyes, and he said solemnly: "Reporting to your Majesty, I traveled around when I was young. When I was twenty years old, I left Luoyang, went south along Jingzhou, and then walked east along the Yangtze River to Yangzhou. I lived in Yangzhou for several years. Year."
"Yangzhou is rich and prosperous by the sea, and life is very happy. However, while I was in Yangzhou, I encountered Japanese bandits who invaded, arbitrarily robbed the people, and massacred my Daqian people."
"But the local county magistrates in Yangzhou not only refused to accept the people who were fleeing for safety, but instead closed the city gates and allowed the people to be slaughtered."
"The last general had an idea at that time. He wanted to kill all the Japanese slaves and these beasts that roamed the sea."
"So the last general will join the army."
Qi Yuanjing's eyes sparkled, and he said loudly: "My ambition is not to become a prince or prime minister, nor to ride on the Helan Mountains. My only wish is to defeat the Japanese slaves and bring peace to the world."
