Chapter 997: Revenge, Fighting for Children
Lin Chujiu had an extremely difficult pregnancy with this child. When she was pregnant, she lay in bed for six months. For the sake of this child, she took medicine like food every day. She lost too much weight. Lin Chujiu thought that when the child was born, it wouldn't be easy. However, she didn't expect that the birth process would go exceptionally smoothly……
It only took two hours of labor, and the baby was born, but his cry was very weak. What's more, she was not as red as the newborn baby, but with a hint of grayness. Lin Chujiu knew it was fetal poison, but……
The moment she saw that the child's four legs were intact and there was no deformity, she was so happy that she cried.
She was a doctor herself, and she had the medical system, so she was not afraid of fetal poisons at all. The child was still young, she was cured of it after two years of good health. She was afraid that something would happen to the child, and she would regret it for the rest of her life.
"Our child is very good." Xiao Tianyao only took a glance and then came to Lin Chujiu. Looking at Lin Chujiu, who was pale, sweaty, and very embarrassed, Xiao Tianyao's eyes turned red: "I made you suffer. ”
Having one child was enough. He doesn't want Lin Chujiu to have another child. Giving birth to a child was too scary.
"I'm very happy." Her family relationship was indifferent, and the only grandmother who treated her well had passed away early. This child was the person closest to her bloodline, and she was very happy to have a continuation of her bloodline. She was really happy.
"When we get back, how about we take the child to see grandma?" She had gone there with Xiao Tianyao once before, but she never went there again. She was indeed unfilial.
"Okay." At this time, if Lin Chujiu not only wanted to carry the child to the grave of the Meng family to see Old Madam Meng but also wanted the stars in the sky, he, Xiao Tianyao would find a way to pick them for her.
The child was born, and the four countries' peace talks also kicked off.
The Allied Forces of the three countries took the lead in sending troops to the East, and the reason was to attack Xiao Tianyao. As a result, Xiao Tianyao did not appear on the battlefield at all.
At this moment, due to internal problems in the coalition forces, the coalition forces were defeated. Therefore, even if they were the first party to send troops, they lost the battle. They didn't have the upper hand at all and could only be slaughtered by the East.
Xiao Tianyao was not polite and directly asked for thirty cities. Each of the three countries would provide ten cities, and the places were all marked out. All he needed was the nod of the three countries.
This behavior was undoubtedly forcible. The three countries themselves were unwilling and were about to have further communication with the East, but……
Their "alliance" North Country turned against them. When they discussed advancing and retreating together, the North took the lead in agreeing to the East's request and retreated.
"The Northern Country is crazy." The Emperors of the South and the West were so angry that they almost exploded when they received the news. But after seeing the ten cities removed from the North, they understood why the North agreed.
Xiao Tianyao was very insidious. The ten cities he set out from the North were all close to the Central Empire. Not to mention bordering on the Central Empire's territory, they were all barren. What is to be planted on the land can only be decided by the people of the Central Empire.
Such ten cities were a burden to the North. Not to mention paying compensation to the East, even if anyone asks, they will immediately offer it with both hands.
The agreement between the North and the East was very smooth. The North didn't even try to discuss it. They directly offered ten cities withdrew their troops and returned home……
Not long after the North retreated, the East resumed border transactions with the North and sold some grain to them from time to time. The price was not high, but the amount of grain was not large, which was just enough for Northern people to not starve to death.
The Northern Army retreated, leaving the South and the West unable to fight, even if they wanted to continue to fight. After half a month of negotiations, the South and the West finally gave in, and each offered ten cities to retreat.
At this point, the war between the four countries has come to an end, but an internal struggle has just begun.
Not to mention the dispute between the old and new dynasties of the Southern Barbarians, even the princes of the West were unwilling to be silent. Especially after the defeat of the West, the ministers in the court were very dissatisfied with the Emperor, so the princes jumped even more happily. Especially, Ji Fengyu, with Xiao Tianyao's support, he had the upper hand in the struggle among the princes of the West.
The civil strife between the South and the West continued. The East was not much better. Although the Emperor gave in the face of the powerful Xiao Tianyao, there were always people like the Northern Territory King who were unwilling to be inferior and wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble……
Although this was not a big deal for Xiao Tianyao, if there was a rebellion, he could just send troops to suppress it. However, suppression alone cannot solve the problem, nor a way to deal with state affairs.
The combination of hard and soft way of punishments was the means of governing the country.
Therefore, although the war was over, Xiao Tianyao could not rest. Taking advantage of the past few years when various countries were resting and recuperating, Xiao Tianyao integrated the East's internal affairs step by step, implemented reforms in various places, calmed civil unrest, and appeased the people.
In these years, although Xiao Tianyao has not ascended the throne, he has the final say over the entire East. Under Xiao Tianyao's governance, in just three years, the East has recovered its strength and recovered from the damage caused by the war. And this year, he and Lin Chujiu’s son, Xiao Zifu, turned three years old.
Xiao Zifu's name has nothing to do with the imperial family. This name was just Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu's expectations for him. They hope that he will be happy and healthy.
And Xiao Zifu lives up to the expectations of Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu. Although he was in poor health when he was born, after three years of nursing, Xiao Zifu was no different from a healthy child, but……
Just when Lin Chujiu calmed down a little, Xiao Zifu was tricked and poisoned!
It was not a direct poisoning. It was just eating the food that was incompatible with the poison in his body.
Xiao Zifu fell ill that night and vomited blood profusely. The servants who served him were frightened and quickly called their princess. Lin Chujiu didn't even wear shoes or socks and ran over with bare feet.
"Mom, mother…" The pale-faced boy Xiao Zifu closed his eyes tightly and unconsciously called Lin Chujiu. Lin Chujiu almost collapsed and hugged the boy tightly: "It's okay, it's okay, mother is here, son. Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid of Zifu, mother is here.”
After three days and three nights, with the joint efforts of Lin Chujiu and the medical system, Xiao Zifu escaped safely. However, after this incident, his newly recovered body became weak again.
[The young prince will have to be raised for at least three more years before he can return to his original state.]
After the medical system's diagnosis and treatment, she let out a long sigh.
Children were most taboo about tossing things around. The young prince has been through a lot of trouble this time. He was lucky enough can recover in three years.
Lin Chujiu was heartbroken, but it was too late to say anything at this time. After Xiao Zifu's health recovered, Lin Chujiu told the news to Xiao Tianyao who was outside, and ordered a thorough investigation.
“Who did this? Check it, check it for me!”
She will never let go of anyone who hurts her son, no matter who it is!
