Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

The victory of the south of the south, the Gaoshan Kingdom became a large subsidiary of Daqi. This time, the land in the south of Daqi has been winding to the South China Sea.

The next month after the army returned in triumph, Li Ling ordered a general amnesty for the whole country and held a grand banquet in the palace to entertain the soldiers who were marching south.

Celebration banquets are mostly held separately. Li Ling entertains the soldiers in the outer palace, while Jingshu entertains the families of the meritorious soldiers and their families in the inner palace. Therefore, before each palace banquet, the female officials in the inner palace will work hard for a while, selecting Create a list of ladies who are eligible to attend the palace banquet, and then submit it to Jing Shu for review.

On this day, the person in charge sent the list of palace banquets. Jingshu took it and read it carefully, then sighed: "General Hu made the first contribution in this southern expedition. It's a pity that his wife has already After passing away, I will no longer be able to see General Hu’s glory."

Ziyun sighed after hearing this: "Speaking of which, Mrs. Hu really had a true love for General Hu. Even the imperial doctor concluded that she would not live for more than a month, but she held on and survived for four months. In the end, she survived until Hu The general will not die until he returns victorious."

 Such deep affection can only be experienced by those who are lucky enough to enjoy the love between husband and wife.

Jingshu's eyes were sore when she heard this, and she couldn't help but shed tears. She murmured: "After all, we saw her for the last time. She should have passed away peacefully."

The master and servant had just talked about General Hu and his wife at noon. When Li Ling returned in the evening, he asked: "Oh, I heard that Hu Dahai's wife passed away, right?"

Although Mrs. Hu had a royal title, in the eyes of the king, she was just a woman. It was great that her death could alarm the queen. Now that even the emperor knows about it, it is really surprising.

Jingshu said in surprise: "Even you have heard of such things."

Li Ling replied: "Of course I don't know about Mrs. Hu's death, but I heard today that Hu Dahai was so sad because of his wife's death that he fell ill now. It seems that he can't even attend the celebration banquet."

Jingshu asked: "General Hu is seriously ill?"

Li Ling nodded, and then sighed: "This old Hu is as strong as an ox, and as brave as a tiger in killing enemies on the battlefield. When he returned from his triumphant return, every time he took a break, he couldn't help but follow the army. The strong men are wrestling and fighting, it’s unimaginable.”

 Brothers who live and die together, Li Ling's eyes turned red as he spoke.

Jingshu thoughtfully served him a cup of hot tea and tried to find words to comfort him: "Mrs. Hu would not be able to survive General Hu's return. They can see each other for the last time, so they have no regrets."

Li Ling took a sip of tea and asked, "Which noble daughter is Mrs. Hu from?"

Although Hu Dahai came from a rough background, he had been appreciated and promoted since he followed Li Ling, and he was already a prominent general. Therefore, Li Ling subconsciously believed that his wife must be a noblewoman in the capital.

Jingshu replied: "Mrs. Hu is not a noblewoman. She used to be just a peasant girl. She was rescued by General Hu on the way to escape, so the two became husband and wife."

Hearing this, Li Ling didn't show any surprise. He was silent for a while, and then murmured: "Old Hu is a man who values ​​love and justice. Alas! What a pity."

 The Queen received news that Hu Dahai was critically ill at noon on the second day after she learned that Hu Dahai was seriously ill.

No one expected that this angry man would be able to say no, no, no, no. Although Li Ling was thinking about him, he planned to go see him after a while, but it was unexpected. The bad news came so unexpectedly. .

When Liang Jin reported the news to the emperor with red eyes, Li Ling was busy at his desk in Qinzheng Hall. He didn't even bother to eat lunch, and Jing Shu happened to come to give him snacks to fill his stomach.

When Li Ling heard the bad news, the imperial pen in his hand suddenly fell to the ground. He sat on the dragon chair in a daze, and did not regain consciousness for a long time.

Liang Jin's eyes were red, and he secretly glanced at Jing Shu beside him, and said with a choked voice: "General Hu wants to see His Majesty for the last time. General Hu said that he hopes that Your Majesty will bring your Majesty with you. She has something to entrust to your Majesty." Li Ling replied: "Okay."

The emperor and empress left the palace lightly dressed and took only Liang Jin and Ziyun with them, and went straight to General Hu's mansion.

 Because Mrs. Hu had just passed away, the house was deserted and the courtyard was quiet. Even the naughty children knew the sadness. They all wiped away tears and looked very pitiful.

Zhou Jin and several generals who had always had close friendship with Hu Dahai were also there. When everyone saw the empress, they bowed respectfully and welcomed the empress in. Li Ling looked solemn and asked Zhou Jin, "I just said I was sick yesterday, what happened today?" Is this what it’s like?”

Zhou Jin shook his head and said: "The imperial doctor said that it was excessive sadness that caused evil fire to attack the heart. This old Hu" said, his eyes were red, and he sighed heavily.

Men are different from women. Although they were sad in their hearts, they immediately concealed their emotions as soon as they entered the room. When they saw Hu Dahai, who was lying on the bed dying, they were as usual.

Zhou Jin said jokingly: "Old Hu, you are so arrogant this time. Not only did your Majesty come, but the Queen was also alarmed."

Hearing that the emperor was coming, the imperial doctor specially poured a bowl of ginseng soup for Hu Dahai. Hu Dahai took a deep breath, raised his voice after hearing the words, stretched his neck and looked towards the door. Li Ling subconsciously blocked Jing Shu in front of him. , Hu Dahai sighed and said: "Your Majesty, why are you so stingy? I asked the Queen to come over because I have something to entrust you with."

Li Ling smiled, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder as usual, scolding him with a smile: "You barbarian, we just won the battle and you pretended to be sick, what does it look like?"

Hu Dahai grinned and replied: "Life and death are fateful, it is not something I, Old Hu, can decide."

Li Ling opened his mouth, but could not speak. Hu Dahai smiled naively and continued: "Since I have followed your majesty, I have no regrets about being able to achieve what I am today. There is just one thing that I can't worry about. "

Li Ling asked: "If you have anything on your mind, just tell me."

Hu Dahai raised his hand and pointed at the sons who looked like calves standing aside, and said to Li Ling: "These sons of mine were all born for me by my mother-in-law. She was weak and died while giving birth to children." After I die, I can reunite with my mother-in-law underground, but these children"

Before Hu Dahai finished speaking, Li Ling simply said: "Don't worry, I am willing to accept them as adopted sons."

Hu Dahai breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it is not easy for me to ask you for such a thing. It's just that these sons of mine are too naughty. If I leave it to others, I'm afraid they will also Not willing to educate them.”

Li Ling solemnly said: "Don't worry, I will fulfill your responsibilities as a father and teach them to adults."

Hu Dahai replied: "Of course I trust your majesty, but I am worried about the naughty children." Hu Dahai paused, looked at Jing Shu aside, and asked: "Your Majesty, I am kind-hearted. With your Majesty here, I am the one who is here." No matter how naughty the children are, I won't worry about anyone beating them."

 Li Ling: "."

Jingshu glanced at Li Ling and said to Hu Dahai: "Don't worry, your majesty and I will take them into the palace to educate them. Even if your majesty has a bad temper, I will not allow him to beat the children."

 Li Ling: "."
