After he finished speaking, Shangguan Wenruo and others immediately bowed and raised their hands, saying in unison: "Your Majesty is wise——"
All the generals also looked at each other and then saluted.
No matter how capable a person is, he will make mistakes sometimes, and the same is true for kings.
But Xiao Yuan is a person who will face up to his mistakes and choose favorable opinions, and will never insist on making wrong decisions.
Of course, when the decision is correct, he will also fight against everyone's opinions. This is what makes him unique.
This time, his proposal to attack Wu Chu was indeed a little impatient. He was eager to quickly eliminate the countries, which caused some anxious changes in his mentality.
If we really send our troops south at this time, it is conceivable that if we are defeated on the Yangtze River, Qin will probably not be able to move eastwards in the next ten years.
Fortunately, a group of important ministers reminded him in time.
After rejecting the proposal, Xiao Yuan sighed softly and said helplessly: "It is so difficult to unify the north. Although the Huan Kingdom is weak and ready to die, with the support of the Spirit King, it is like a centipede insect, dead but not stiff."
Hearing this, Jia You said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, there will definitely be opportunities."
Seeing what he said so firmly, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Oh? Why did Mr. Jia say this?"
Jia You said: "Although I can't predict it now, the situation in the world will change sooner or later, especially Huan and Ling. King Ling cannot always be like this. He is just forced by the pressure of our country's eastward movement. Didn't Ling Kingdom never think about it?" Devouring the state of Huan? Therefore, over time, the two will inevitably have disputes."
"In addition, Anyang is under the rule of my great Qin. Based on my guess, something will happen there."
Jia You is a very thoughtful person and has almost no suggestions. When he doesn't have a plan, he usually stays silent. When he speaks, he almost always answers the question.
Xiao Yuan was thoughtful, then nodded and said: "Okay, let's listen to your advice, stop fighting for the time being, cultivate your health, and wait for changes."
"Let's end today's discussion here."
"I obey your orders——" People saluted in unison.
After the discussion, it was already afternoon. Several counselors and generals came out of the palace one after another. Xiao Yuangang stretched his muscles and planned to take a stroll, but Gu Xue's personal maid Xiaolan came over in a hurry. , when she saw him, she even said anxiously: "Your Majesty, something happened to your Majesty..."
"What!?" When Xiao Yuan heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and he immediately panicked: "Where is Xue'er now!?"
"The medical officer is making a diagnosis." Xiaolan hurriedly returned.
"Take me there quickly!" Xiao Yuan dared not stop and immediately moved his steps.
When he hurried to Gu Xue's room, the latter was lying on the bed, and the medical officer was checking his pulse.
"Husband..." Gu Xue naturally shouted when she saw him.
Xiao Yuan motioned her not to move, then looked at the medical officer and asked nervously: "Is the princess in serious condition?"
At this time, the medical officer had almost completed the diagnosis. Hearing this, he immediately said: "No, no, no, don't worry, Your Majesty, the Princess is just a little weak in the bones, just take care of her."
After saying that, he quickly knelt down and said, "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the empress -"
"What?" Xiao Yuan was a little confused. Wasn't he sick? Congratulations? He was about to fly into a rage.
The medical officer immediately said, "My queen is pregnant, and this is the prince of Da Qin."
"Ah!?" Xiao Yuan was shocked again!
From the beginning to now, the expression on his face was not to mention how complicated it was, because his mood changed too quickly. He was worried for a while, angry for a while, and shocked by the surprise for a while.
There was a short circuit in his brain, and he stammered: "The king...the princess is pregnant?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." The medical officer repeated sternly.
At this time, the maids in the room also reacted and began to kneel down together, saying in unison: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the empress -"
At this moment, Xiao Yuan came back to his senses. You can imagine his mood, and immediately smiled heartily: "Haha! Okay, okay! Everyone will be rewarded!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty——" Everyone also looked happy. Needless to say, for such a happy event, the reward of gold and silver will definitely be huge.
This made Xiao Yuan feel like he was about to become a father. It was an indescribable feeling and a blood inheritance.
He came into this world, had a child with his wife.
"You, you go down first. I will send the reward to the Imperial Hospital later."
"Yes, I will take my leave." The medical officer saluted respectfully.
Happy, Xiao Yuan was nervous and excited, and sat beside Gu Xue's bed. He wanted to say something or do something, but he looked at a loss.
At this time, Gu Xue's little face was also filled with happiness. Seeing Xiao Yuan sitting by the bed, she subconsciously wanted to get up.
"No, be careful." Xiao Yuan was so panicked that his movements seemed like he was afraid that Gu Xue would scare the child in his belly.
The latter couldn't help but give him a charming look: "What are you doing, husband?"
Xiao Yuan laughed dryly, and couldn't help it any longer. He couldn't help but put his head gently on Gu Xue's belly, and listened carefully.
Looking at his movements, Gu Xue said helplessly: "Husband, how long have you been pregnant now..."
"Ah? Yes, that's the case." Xiao Yuan was silly again, but still gently pressed against her belly and refused to leave.
Seeing her beloved man showing such concern and love, Gu Xue's heart almost melted, and she was filled with sweetness and joy.
Early morning the next day.
Naturally, word of such a happy event has already spread. After all the ministers knelt down and bowed, they all saluted and said in unison: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king——"
"Haha! Do all the ministers know? Okay, okay!" Xiao Yuan was very happy and said immediately: "Today, it is rare to be so happy. The king has ordered a banquet to be held in the palace. After the court, all the ministers are not allowed to leave. Drink to your heart’s content.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty——" People's faces were also full of joy.
Even though this was Xiao Yuan's unborn child, to the ministers, the country would only be more stable if the king had a queen, so there was no reason for them to be unhappy.
The monarch was in a good mood, and the ministers were also happy. Today's court meeting was quite relaxed, and there was no major matter to deal with. After the court, Xiao Yuan left first, and the ministers walked to the banquet place in twos and threes. Naturally, they couldn't help chatting with each other on the way.
"The state structure has been established, and the family and country are stable, which is really a blessing for the country..."
"Today, the empress is pregnant, the whole world should celebrate..."
At noon that day, at the banquet, Xiao Yuan and Gu Xue attended together. Naturally, all the ministers congratulated each other. Faced with the congratulations, Gu Xue was also generous and responded to them all with a smile.
Xiao Yuan was so happy that he waved his hand: "Everyone, please take your seats."
Needless to say, the atmosphere of this feast was great. At the banquet, the ministers said whatever they liked, and Xiao Yuan did not refuse anyone who was toasting and congratulating.
A few days later, the news reached King Xuan somehow.
After reading the letter, she felt complicated and didn't know how to express it.
