Prince Chu pulled up his robes and sat down, then said slowly, "Tell me, has everything been settled?"
Ning Jiu said: "According to Your Highness's orders, General Li's men will split into two groups and move towards the northwest. They have already departed yesterday, General Li is not around, and the first group will be led by Vice General Wu Qianfan."
"Yes," the Prince Chu said, "The remaining half will be led by Fang Lingan. He originally came from there, and now that the manor has enough people, he can go back and stay for a while. We can talk about this after Li Tianxing recovers."
Ning Jiu agreed and hesitated for a moment. Then he said: "My prince, let's evacuate the troops. If the north side finds out about this, will they take the chance to retreat?"
Prince Chu raised his cup and took a sip of tea. "Right now, he is very interested in the North River Trade, and is preparing to follow suit with Monda at the northern border. He does not have the energy to fight, but …" He paused for a moment, tapped the table with his finger, "There's no need to hide it, it can't be hidden either. Let's wait and see what reaction there is."
Ning Jiu nodded, "Yes, this subordinate understands."
"In addition, the results of the militia's drills are quite good. It can be widely spread, so let the General Han do it. When next year comes, when everything is on track and most of the troops are transferred to the barren lands in the northwest, Jiangnan is rich but the northwest is poor and barren. When the two sides are compared, we might as well head north, and the late emperor had thought of vigorously developing the northwest and promulgating a few new laws, but the results are minimal. Now that the northwest is in our hands, we can give it a try. "
Ning Jiu said: "Your highness cared about the world, and this is a blessing for the commoners, why not …"
Prince Chu glanced at him, "Stop, in terms of governance, the crown prince is stronger than this king. He is the crown prince after all, leaving the south to him is the fortune of the commoners."
Ning Jiu sighed in his heart. The prince wasn't ambitious to begin with, but now that the princess was pregnant, he didn't want to be in charge anymore. He bowed and cupped his hands, "Your Highness has no other orders, your subordinate will take his leave first."
Prince Chu waved his hand, "Go."
Just as Ning Jiu walked out of the door, Hao Pingguan came in and smiled so much that it looked like he was about to grind his teeth. He leaned over and said, "Your servant wishes to congratulate Your Highness!"
Towards that sudden appearance of a child, Prince Chu's emotions were contradictory. He might say that he was unhappy, but he was not. In any case, this had disrupted his plans. The world between the two hadn't been enough. Suddenly, a person walked in and was a bit depressed.
"What did you come here for?"
"So it's like this, this old servant has thought about it, although the Prefect is big, it's still a place to handle matters, the prince was fine by himself previously, but now that the princess has returned and is pregnant, it's not convenient for me to stay in the back courtyard like this, this old servant thinks that if I find a good house and settle down, I'll have a good home."
The only one by the princess's side was Yue Xiang. Now that Yue Xiang had married someone, they should have filled the gap, but now that Yue Xiang was pregnant, there were even more people who had to take care of him. This old servant has been rough with her words, kitchen maid, kitchen boy, boy, rough with the help of a servant girl, I still have to invite a wet nurse to take care of him … "For a disciple like us to be able to support him, there must be at least a hundred or eighty people. In addition …"
Morong Gan raised his hand, signalling him to stop, "The wangfei is just pregnant, it's not appropriate to work hard, don't move for now."
"Since I don't want the wangfei to interfere, this old servant will naturally take care of these trivial matters."
"Is she someone who can sit?" Morong Gan glanced at him, "There's no need to put in so much effort to gather so many people. Next year, when the consort can easily give birth to the child, we'll go to the Jinling for a while, then wait for the child to be older before we go to the northwest and officially settle down."
Hao Pingguan was startled, "Your highness sent me there to take care of the villa, so I had already planned to do so." There was a tinge of regret in his tone. "But the prince came down to beat this world up, so you aren't even a little …"
Morong Gan laughed, "If they want to sit under the heavens, I will divide the world into two and let them sit. I will just bring my wife and children through my life, everyone take what you need."
Since the Prince had already made up his mind, the only thing he could do was to give up on the other place to live in the Hao Head Steward. However, his enthusiasm could not be cooled down as it all fell onto the Princess Chu who was carrying his body. Speaking of which, he seemed very excited.
"When the prince was still young, this old servant was by his side. Only the old servant knew that the prince's life was not easy. Now that the prince has opened his own branch and scattered the leaves, this old servant's heart is truly …" He pulled up his sleeve to wipe away his tears.
Morong Gan frowned, "The princess is happy, it's a good thing. Why are you crying?"
"This servant is crying with joy," Hao Pingguan said as he wiped away his tears, then broke into a smile, "This is our Heir, but I can't do it carelessly. The few people by the wangfei's side are all young ladies who have yet to leave the pavilion, and have no experience at all in pregnant women. From what I see, I need to find a few capable women, a wet nurse, and a few maidservants to flatter me so much that I can be absolutely safe. "Also, there are no storehouses, nests, silver horns, and fish wings in the mansion. These are all here to be bought and eaten. This won't do, we need to prepare them at all times …"
Morong Gan could not bear to listen to his nagging, "Tell the people about the invitation to the princess and the food to Qi Hong, she knows her taste. She will decide on her own, don't ask me for advice on everything else."
Head Steward Hao, who was full of excitement, was suddenly interrupted and he did not mind in the slightest. His beaming expression immediately turned into a retracted eyebrow and he lowered his eyes, "This old servant is too noisy, this old servant will take his leave first."
Just as he took two steps forward, he was called over by Morong Gan, "Go and invite that Doctor Wei over."
"Yes, this old servant will invite the Doctor Wei now." Hao Pingguan retreated out of the door.
Very quickly, Wei Zhongqing arrived. After experiencing the things that happened in the Inner Palace, he felt that the famous Evil God was not much better than him, and there was nothing to be afraid of. Hou came over with his head held high and his chest puffed out, "Your Highness, you were looking for me?"
"Please have a seat Doctor Wei." "was very polite with him, and gestured for him to sit down, then went straight to the point," Doctor Wei also saw Princess Wangfei's situation, it was as the doctor had said, Princess Wangfei's temperament changed greatly, at times he had a bad temper, at times he was also sad.
"This …" Wei Zhongqing rubbed his chin, "Those who are pregnant will tend to have some changes in their temperament, it's just that the depth of the change is slightly different. Right now, there's nothing to be done, the only way to cure it is to let the pregnant women remain optimistic and optimistic, and only then will the symptoms slowly disappear.
"Doctor, what do you mean by deep and shallow?"
"Those who are deep worry too much. There have been those who have sought out shortsighted ones."
Prince Chu drew in a breath of cold air, "Can you find fault with being pregnant to the point of having a child?"
