His Majesty's great lineage and the new emperor's ascension to the throne.

But this new matter of changing the dynasty brought no joy to the Sikong family.

Song Yuwang was even sicker when he found out the news.

Because the doctor advised him not to see the wind, the sick couch was set up behind heavy curtains. Even if Song Zaitian filial piety, day after day personally for him to wipe his body, change the inner clothes, and burned in the inner light and long spices, but lying sick for a long time, Song Yuwang still feel that his body exudes the smell of stale and sour.

This stench of decaying flesh, which comes with age and sickness, cannot be dispersed or masked by the most expensive spices.

His gaze was also growing dimmer by the day.

The people who came to visit him recently, but saw his face, already even wishing him a speedy recovery and other words can not bear to say, only to say "good self cherish" only. More words they said to Song Zaitian listen, this is not just that Song Zaitian more spirit to listen to their words, in fact, are determined that Song Yuwang can not be delayed for a long time, it is better to go to comfort Song Zaitian.

The person lying on the couch is actually quite young in terms of age, but his breath is as weak as a candle in the wind, and every moment seems to be the next moment will be cut off.

But everyone who visited thought that they would receive news of the Song family's bereavement when they returned, or even on the way, yet Song Yuwang dragged on like this, day after day.

There was clearly something insistent in those dull eyes that made him never want to just leave him.

The crowd was sympathetic to this sentiment of his.

For example, Shen Xuan went to visit him after the end of the weeping, back to the Tai Fu House, he lamented with Mrs. Su "Hua Qing even though at this moment to the end of his days, I'm afraid that it is difficult to rest in peace."

Mrs. Su said "This is natural, the Song family has few brothers, and their grandchildren are both few and small. Nowadays, the county has been taken over by the displaced people, and Song Zaijiang and Song Zhaoshui can't go to the capital. If Huaqing is gone, Jiangnan Song's original clan in the imperial capital will only have Song Zaitian to support ...... According to what you said, he has been emaciated very recently, Mrs. Wei only left last year, if you add a heavy loss of father's grief, but where can he hold out?"

"Heart hangs on children ah!" Shen Xuan sighed, "Speaking of which, Hwa Qing is as old as I am, how did he fall ill like this?"

"In the end, he is a scholarly family, well-mannered." Mrs. Su sighed, "Besides, there are unpredictable winds and clouds in the sky, this kind of thing where is the age can be accurate? You see how many bosses in the dynasty is not old and strong?"

Shen Xuan said, "It's just that he's reached this point, yet he still refuses to say why he loathes the Duanmu family, it's really strange."

"I'm afraid of what is not easy to say?" Mrs. Su guessed, "Earlier that Duanmu Wushe was rude as hell, perhaps did something extremely disobedient, biased Qing in the way of the identity of the elders and inconvenient to say?"

About this one is the most likely.

The couple lamented Song Yuwang and talked about returning to their own home. Shen Xuan then mentioned that he wanted to send Mr. and Mrs. Shen Jiekun to Xiliang as well.

This was discussed before, but now Mrs. Su has other opinions "Before you sent Ming'er and the fifth house to Xiliang, it was only because our family was planning to change the date. At that time, although the Xilang army had already arrived at the capital, but the imperial guards were many and powerful, once the matter was leaked, or the late emperor did something cruel, I'm afraid that if we were not careful, we would incur a great disaster. To send them to Xiliang is not only to sharpen their skills, but also to leave some blood for our clan."

Otherwise Shen Shuming gambling lost a few thousand taels of silver, Shen Xuan couple even if he hated him not to compete, a young age to the dude there, but will not be so annoyed that therefore he drove him to the Western Liang. After all, the high family, born in brocade, in and out of the front and back, more people around, it is inevitable that will learn bad.

Since the discovery, teach a lesson, to correct it is is Shen Zang Li generation, thirteen or fourteen years of age into eating, drinking, whoring and gambling vice is not unheard of, this kind of thing Shen Xuan couple did not take it very seriously, whose children grow up not to go a few times the wrong way it?

"But things are different now." Lady Su said, "The late emperor's great execution and the new ruler's ascension to the throne was unexpectedly smooth. Since this is the case, why ask them to go to Western Liang to suffer? Furthermore, now that there are only 20,000 soldiers left in the capital city, if we allocate more people to escort them, we won't be able to trust them with less, and we won't have enough manpower with more the last time they went to Xiliang in Ming'er, it was still the Su family that gave a group of people to make up for them because of Fish Shade's sake."

Shen Xuan mused, "But earlier it was said that the Sixth House would also go to Western Liang."

"This time is different from the other time." Mrs. Su advised, "The world is not fair, our children are not that narrow-minded, how can they keep a gap for this little thing? Besides, you also know what happened in the sixth daughter-in-law's family, that child is now as confused as her mother, and she was sick again after crying. How can she survive the long journey in her broken body? As a newlywed couple, why would they ask their sixth daughter-in-law to stay in the imperial capital and send Kun'er to Western Liang alone? You know Kun's temperament, he's not like Feng, he's not as considerate of his wife, he's been hanging out in brothels since before he got married, now that he's married and his wife isn't with him, how can he not take a wife? When the time comes to have a concubine son born before the first son, isn't that adding to the Sixth House's problems?"

Shen Xuan thought about it and said, "In that case, let's knock Kun'er around a bit and let them stay."

Although Shen Jiekun was then called to his parents to be severely reprimanded but know that do not have to go to the bitter cold and boring Western Liang, or let him surprised and happy, for his father and his mother put forward a variety of requirements naturally full of mouth to agree to, but both Shen Xuan couples and Shen Jiekun themselves are clear in their hearts, these requirements to agree to fast, but really can do how much that only God knows. But both Mr. and Mrs. Shen Xuan or Shen Rinkun know in their own hearts that these requirements are promised quickly, but how much they can really do is only known to God.

After this news reached the houses, Wei Changying was also relieved for Huo Qingling. Just as Mrs. Su said, if Shen Xuan insisted on driving the Sixth House to Xiliang to sharpen their skills, with Huo Qingling's current physical condition, it would really be a dilemma to follow or not to follow, and it would be a dilemma to get in and out of a dilemma.

She celebrated with Huang for a few moments, and then continued to read the letter the letter was only sent from her mother's family, and a letter sent in this kind of military chaos, where the road must be traveled over the mountains and through trails, must be of some importance.

That's why Wei Chang Ying wanted to read the letter quickly so that she could find out the details, but it was obviously difficult for her mother, surrounded by her two sons, to concentrate on this matter.

Shen Shuguang, who already recognized some words, stretched out his arms and climbed onto her wrist, pulling the letter down to where he could see it from where he stood, and then picked out the words he knew from the letter and read them aloud for praise; Shen Shuxie, who was still small, jumped and jumped around his mother's leg, trying to crawl along Wei Changying's leg because he saw that his brother's reading of the letter was interesting Wei Changying simply took him onto his lap. He tried to crawl up Wei Chang Ying's leg, and Wei Chang Ying simply took him onto his lap.

So Shen Shuxie happily "ah-oh" bite on the letter, anxious Wei Changying and Huang busy coaxing him to let go ......

Finally, it was easy to snatch it out, and it was already moistened by his saliva. Wet a large piece of not to mention, even two words are blurred.

Wei Chang Ying was angry and anxious, so he called his nursemaid, "Take them down first."

This time Shen Shuguang immediately flattened his mouth and looked at her with a great deal of aggression, unable to stop tugging at the corner of his clothes.

While Shen Shuxie, who is still small and completely unnecessary to care about any decency, cried loudly and decisively, wiping tears and snot unceremoniously towards his mother's lapel while crying.

"...... "Wei Chang Ying had to hand the letter over to Huang, "Auntie let me know when you've finished reading it." He picked up his second son and held him down. He softly coaxed him up, occasionally touching his eldest son's head and praising him a few times to avoid him from getting a taste for it.

It was easy to coax these two little ancestors to be satisfied, and finally they were merciful enough to let her go Huang came up with a grave expression and told Wei Changying, "A group of bandits numbering over ten thousand people has appeared on the left side of Fengzhou's capital, and has already seized two counties."

"What?" Wei Changying was surprised, "Fengzhou is an upper state, and it's been quite favorable these past few years, how could it be?"

Huang sighed, "It is said that it is because the scholarly families occupy too much of the fields, and the rents and taxes are heavy, plus the example of the current lifting of the country, which is ......"

Wei Changying was surprised and said, "Didn't Grandma and Grandpa reduce the rent and tax on the clan's properties since the year before last?" The Wei family is the largest scholarly clan in Fengzhou, and their property accounts for six or seven tenths of the state. As a matter of fact, since the Wei family has reduced the rent tax, it means that the whole state has benefited from it.

"The clansmen are largely masculine." Huang smiled bitterly, "At that time, the Grand Master wasn't fully healed, and the Valve Master and the Old Lady had their hearts set on the Grand Master. Later, the Grand Master recovered, but the times were in chaos again. Before long, the valve master injured his foot ...... again and when he found out, the bandits had already become a climate."

Wei Changying was silent for a moment and said, "Then what does the family plan to do now?"

"The old madam temporarily handed over her private army to Mo Binwei, and was able to recapture a county, greatly deterring those bandits. However, the recaptured county had no one to sit in on it, and once Mo Binwei retreated from the army, it was taken over again."

"How could there be no one available in the clan to this extent?" Wei Chang Ying couldn't help but be stunned, she thought for a moment and said, "What about Clan Brother Wei Qing?"

Huang said ''Old madam said, not only is there no generals available, but there are also not enough troops. Nowadays, the world does not know how long it will be in chaos, so we should be careful not to over-deplete our troops. After all, the state city is the most important." Rui Yu Tang old and young can be in Fengzhou state city ah!

Wei Chang Ying furrowed his brows tightly and couldn't help but murmur, "What can we do about this?"

"The old madam said that our family has a large amount of grain, and there are many wells in Rui Yu Tang, and now there is also Mo Binwei as the general, so there should be no problem in defending the state city alone." Huang said, "The old madam didn't write to ask for help, but to reassure you about your mother's family-although Fengzhou is also in chaos, as long as the old madam is there, you don't have to worry about it!"

After a pause, Huang added, "The old madam heard that you have two grandsons, and was very happy, but regretted that the road was blocked, so the gifts for the fourth grandson couldn't be sent for the time being. However, hearing that you and your son are well, the old madam is relieved."

Wei Changying understood her grandmother's meaning Old Lady Song had sent this letter from a long way off for fear that when she heard about the unrest in Fengzhou, she would pester her husband or her father-in-law to send troops to save her, so that she would have a dispute with her husband's family, thus affecting the harmony between her and her husband's family.

Her heart sank as she said, "It's already that time of the year, and Grandmother still has to worry about me like this."

"Busy for your own flesh and blood, sounds tiring, but in fact it's also a blessing, young lady you are not the most experienced now?" Huang smiled slightly and said, her eyes looked to the door Shen Shuguang who had only been brought down was pulling his younger brother and shouting, thumping on the porch and running, so noisy that the people talking across the street could not be heard, but the two children were enjoying themselves very much.

Wei Chang Ying's sadness was greatly reduced by these words, and she smiled bitterly and said, "Nowadays, I do hope that Husband he will come back soon, and also tell him to take a look at these two treasures."

Shen Zangfeng last year led the troops rushed to Yanzhou, Shen Shuxie only full week, still just barely able to walk a few steps, occasionally say a few words, far less than nowadays walk and run steadily, even if Shen Shuguang start, he followed also can't make a fuss. But now this time the son has been three years old, in fact, also full of a year and a half, followed by Shen Shuguang this naughty elder brother, two children as long as the waking up there is no quiet time.

When Wei Changying got a headache, she began to miss the time when her husband was around, and she could calm her eldest son with just one look.
