Chapter 198 Happy events continue
On this day, the chamberlains and maids in the Xianyang Palace saw a scene that made them dumbfounded. They saw that the emperor who had just ascended the throne and had always maintained his majesty actually started running quickly in the palace. Even his
The black dragon robe was caught and torn by a branch as he ran, and he ignored it and just ran towards the harem. Behind him were a group of servants chasing after him. It wasn't long before they found out
It turned out that the emperor's only wife was about to give birth. But they still didn't understand why the emperor was so rude. After all, in their eyes, no matter who the man was, there was no need to rush there when his wife was about to give birth.
But they don't understand Fusu's mood. As a person whose soul is completely modern, although he has begun to accept everything of this era, there are still some traces of modernity in his bones, such as when he learned that Pig's Foot was going to be a father.
Excited. If he hadn't known that he couldn't just break in, Fusu would have broken in when he heard Xiao Tao's hoarse scream inside. Now he can only walk outside the door like all fathers waiting for the birth of their children in the hospital.
Walking back and forth, he couldn't calm down. When he heard Xiaotao shouting from inside, Fusu felt nervous. He felt that he had never been so nervous and hesitant before when Pig's Feet attacked Xianyang City.
"It's been almost half an hour, why hasn't the baby been born yet?" Fusu muttered in his heart, and the worry on his face became even worse. Even the water brought to him by the chamberlain who followed him here was thrown away by him.
He didn't even notice his sleeves hitting the ground. His heart was completely in that closed door.
Suddenly there was a loud cry of a baby from inside the door. Fusu rushed to the door with a single step, pushed the door open and walked in. He saw the midwives who had already been invited into the palace were putting a little person into the palace.
She went into the hot water to wash, while Xiao Tao was lying on the couch on the side with a pale face. Her eyes were fixed on the little man. It wasn't until she saw Fusu walking in that she showed a weak smile and said softly.
He called out softly: "Your Majesty." After saying that, he stood up and bowed.
Fusu hurriedly walked forward and hugged her and said: "Don't move, your body is too weak now. The only thing you should do now is to lie down here and others will arrange other things."
of."
Xiaotao nodded and responded obediently, then remembered and asked: "Mother-in-law, are you a boy or a girl?"
When the midwife saw Fusu come in, her movements became stiff and she did not dare to speak, because she was just an ordinary citizen and never dreamed that she would see the emperor. It was not until she heard the question that she answered tremblingly: "Madam, yes
A dragon." As she spoke, she wiped the child's body clean with a cloth.
Xiao Tao said: "Bring it here and let me have a look." The midwife carried the person to the couch and placed it next to Xiao Tao. Fusu looked carefully and saw that the little person was only as big as a handful, with his eyes closed tightly.
He clasped his hands tightly. At this time, perhaps because he came to his mother's side, he had stopped crying, but Fusu still couldn't tell whether he was smiling or not. After all, he was too young. Xiao Tao lovingly used her fingers to kiss
After rubbing the child's face, the child seemed to enjoy the feeling and let out a small whimper from his throat. Fusu was interested and stretched out a finger to touch the child's body. The child was very cooperative.
The child also screamed, which made Fusu laugh heartily. Unexpectedly, when Fusu smiled, the child suddenly opened his mouth and started crying. This made Fusu make a fuss about the boss. "What's wrong with him? Is he hungry?"
Are you ready?" Fusu, who was completely inexperienced, asked.
When the midwife saw that he loved his child more than ordinary people, the fear in her heart faded a lot, and she replied: "It was the emperor's laughter that frightened the child. Children should not be frightened just after they are born."
When Fusu heard this, he quickly held his breath and nodded: "I understand. You have made great contributions to the birth of my prince, and I will definitely reward you heavily." When the midwives heard this, they all knelt down and started asking for it.
Thank you. Fusu waved his hand and said: "There is no need to be too polite, so as not to disturb my son. You must serve your wife and the prince well these days, and I will reward you generously." The midwives whispered.
, and then retreated, leaving the space to Fusu's family of three.
Fusu smoothed down Xiao Tao's hair, which was messy due to childbirth, and then looked at her quietly for a long time and said: "Xiao Tao, thank you for giving me a son who can inherit my great cause.
"
Xiaotao felt embarrassed by Fusu's scorching eyes, and said coyly: "I just did what a woman should do. The emperor can treat me and the child like this, I can still smile even if I die. By the way,
Your Majesty, please give our son a name now so that we can register it in the register so that everyone in the world will know that Your Majesty is happy to have a son."
Fusu was at a loss for words. He had never thought about what to name his child. At this time, Confucianism had not yet fully spread, and he did not pay too much attention to things like genealogy, so he just
There is no rule that people of a certain generation must have a certain word in their name. It is really difficult for Fusu to suddenly come up with a name. Suddenly he thought of a word-"Wei", which was the symbol of his life in modern society.
Now Pig's Foot takes this character as the name of his son, just to commemorate himself who has died thousands of years later. So Fusu said: "I will name him Ying Wei, you
How about this name?" Xiao Tao naturally had no objection, so Fusu's first (actually the second, but that one has long since lost his life and death, and he was not born to this Fusu) son was officially named
Ying Wei waited until the child was one month old and announced it to the world. In this way, Fusu's throne was truly secure, because he already had a successor. Then Fusu and Xiaotao teased Xiaoying.
After waiting for a while and seeing that both mother and son were tired, Fusu got up and left, letting them have a good rest and ordering the palace maids and chamberlains to serve them well.
In the next few days, Fusu, in addition to dealing with some major events, spent more time with Xiaotao's mother and son. Of course, he also drank and celebrated at the invitation of Zhang Liang and other close friends. This was also because these people were close to him.
The boundary between monarch and ministers is not too clear yet, and a small number of them regard him as a friend. Fusu is also happy that he is not a real loner, and he will definitely rush there as soon as he receives the invitation.
During this period, not only did Fusu's family affairs make him very happy, but the state affairs were also prosperous. Those counties that had just waited and watched after seeing that the officials who submitted to Fusu were not convicted but instead received rewards, they also came to Fusu one after another.
Su's political power came closer. Slowly, Fusu controlled more and more land. Coupled with the good weather, this spring had good weather and a bumper harvest, which made the people feel at ease. And Fusu
The taxes were reduced by 50% compared with before, and now the people's families had enough surplus food. For a time, all the counties and counties where Da Qin was located were praising Fusu, which also made more people begin to believe in Fusu's abilities, and more people began to believe in Fusu's ability.
Many talented people came to Xianyang in order to show their talents.
Fusu handed over these matters to Zhang Liang, Chen Ping and other officials. He himself focused more on armaments. After all, Chu was still eyeing them in the south, and the Xiongnu didn't know them at all.
This is the idea, so training your soldiers well is the best way to ensure political power. But the new soldiers are still new soldiers after all, and their combat effectiveness is still incomparable with the original soldiers. Only after they have experienced several cruel battles, can they
Only then can he truly grow into a qualified warrior. Seeing these old and new soldiers, Fusu couldn't help but think of Zhang Han who went to summon the original Qin soldiers to surrender. He had been gone for a few months, and he should have wanted to come.
Came back with men and horses.
Just when Fusu was thinking about this, as if God was helping him recently, a guard came to report that Zhang Han was listening to the announcement outside the palace. So Fusu immediately ordered someone to call him into the palace.
He met Zhang Han in his study. Fusu looked at Zhang Han's tired appearance and said, "General Zhang has worked hard all the way. Why don't you come to see me after resting first?"
Zhang Han felt ashamed when he heard Fusu's concerned words. He knelt down and said, "I am guilty. I have disgraced the emperor's trust."
Fusu's face tightened and he asked: "How can I say this? Are these soldiers unwilling to follow the general and surrender to me?" Fusu really didn't expect that these Qin soldiers would be so stubborn and would not surrender even when there was no food available.
Be willing to surrender yourself.
Zhang Han said hurriedly: "That's not true. After I went there, I told them how powerful I was, and most of them agreed to follow me back to Xianyang to submit to the emperor. But Baiban refused to surrender, and he resolutely brought Pig's Foot's cronies with him.
Nearly three thousand people left the army. I knew that I should send troops to wipe out this rebellion, but after all, they are my brothers who have always been with me in life and death. I really couldn't do it, so in the end I could only let them go and gave them some
Food. I let go of Baiban and Sana's thousands of troops without authorization. I really feel unworthy of my trust in the emperor, so I ask the emperor to punish me!" Zhang Han said and kowtowed to Fusu.
Fusu asked: "What about the other troops?"
"Ma Chen has brought the other people, and they are now stationed outside Xianyang City. We will not let them in until the emperor gives permission," Zhang Han said.
Fusu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "General Zhang did this, although he let go of three thousand troops, but it showed me that you are a person who is willing to tell me the truth, which is good. And you brought him
Tens of thousands of soldiers who have fought hundreds of battles are even more of a great achievement. Why should I punish you? It is helpless for the white class to refuse to submit to our Qin Dynasty. You don't have to take it to heart. You have worked hard these days.
, go down and rest now, I will send people to bring those soldiers into the city."
