Chapter 870: Chapter 870-Yesterday Reappears
Xie Wan gave birth to a daughter safely at the beginning of June and named her Zhuge Fuji.
There were no female elders in the Zhuge residence to help out. Zhuge Shu personally begged the Xie residence, and Mother Xie asked Madam Wang to help out.
The few married wives of the Xie family, such as the First Lady, Second Lady, Fourth Lady, and Fifth Lady, had all received a lot of help.
At this moment, Xie Wan really understood what her grandmother had said in the past.
If the bones were broken and the tendons were connected, the sisters ‘heads would be smashed into dogs’ heads. When the time came, they would really be stronger than outsiders.
Because the Zhuge family had no children, Zhuge Shu had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children, he had no children.
Xie Xian was still in mourning period, so it was inconvenient for him to attend. He had already chosen a congratulatory ceremony and sent it over.
The others had given him one or two congratulatory gifts, the elder brother had given him a carriage, the younger sister’s nephew had given him everything, even gold locks and jade locks of various styles, and even Xie Xian’s own collection of brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Zhuge Shu was stunned when he received it.
He was afraid that his brother-in-law had heard wrongly and thought that they had given birth to a little boy. Or did he want his daughter to learn martial arts like his son when he was one or two years old?
“Our daughter can’t live such a hard life. She has no fun since she was young and only knows how to learn. When I was young, I suffered like this. Father also hoped for my son to become a dragon. Other than letting me learn literature from father, father also specially used his connections to spend money to hire a master to teach me martial arts. But that was when I was six or seven years old. How old was Ah Yan?”
“I don’t know how strict your family is, but this is our daughter. We really can’t raise her like that.”
“There’s no freedom after marriage. I don’t want my daughter to lose the freedom to play at such a young age. I still want her to live happily for a few more years. She won’t be in a hurry to get married in the future. No matter what, she has to stay until she’s sixteen. In that case, it’s still not too late to get engaged when she’s thirteen or fourteen. If you’re afraid that it’s not easy to find a candidate, we’ll observe in advance. Anyway, it doesn’t matter how old she is to get engaged. It’s best if she’s seven or eight years old. At that time, we can see what kind of temperament the child has. It’s best to find someone who knows her well.”
“Alright.” Xie Wan said indifferently,”I’ll listen to you.””She quickly interrupted him. She didn’t want to let him continue. According to what he said, she hadn’t even given birth yet and her daughter’s entire life was almost settled by him.
Why didn’t she know that he was so long-winded?
After being a father for a few days, he had been worried for his entire life.
“Not everyone listens to me. You say that every time, but I don’t see you listening.”Zhuge Shu complained,” I just want my daughter to suffer less.”
Xie Wan glared at him. Did this guy really not know that she was so annoyed after her confinement and wanted to torture her to death?
“Our family doesn’t have that kind of rules. Don’t worry about your heart and lie down properly!”
Zhuge Shu picked up his daughter listlessly. He married an ancestor and gave birth to a little ancestor. His wife’s temper was getting worse and worse.
“Ah Yan is the eldest grandson of the first wife. How can that be the same? You don’t have to interfere in how my brother raises his child. He doesn’t care how you raise your child, so you just… Go further away and let me rest.”
The mistress of the house had a temper, and the nanny went forward to persuade her. This was personally chosen by Madam Wang, so she naturally sided with Xie Wan.
“Furen has just given birth and her body is still weak. She has not recovered yet. She needs to take good care of herself after confinement. General, please understand.”
Zhuge Shu was surprised.
“You don’t have to say that. This is my wife. Do you need me to understand? Give birth to a daughter for me. I’ll burn eight incense sticks sooner or later if she comes back from the gates of hell. This is nothing. I should be understanding.”
Nanny: It’s said that the Xie family is strict. Now it seems that it’s really strict.
Look, the wife of the Xie family had already adjusted her son-in-law to be so obedient after marrying.
One word: submit; two words: too submit.

The battle with Jing State was still ongoing. No one had expected that a weak and weak Prince Linchuan could actually be so resistant. When he fought with Sikong Xiao, he had the advantage of winning and losing, but he did not give in.
In the middle of June, Sikong Xiao captured Jingzhou City. As a result, King Linchuan led his army straight to Yongzhou. The former governor of Yongzhou, Yuan Tong, responded when the world was in chaos and King Jin ‘an proclaimed himself king. Later, he was killed by Sikong Xiao.
However, Yuan Tong had been operating in Yongzhou for many years and had long been familiar with the various aristocratic families in Yongzhou. He was very good friends with Pei, Liu, Xue, and Du, and even married the daughter of the local Pei family. His younger brother married the daughter of the Liu family, and his power was intertwined.
The new governor of Yongzhou, Du Xuwen, once served as the prefect of Yicheng County and was a subordinate of Yuan Tong.
However, after Emperor Yong Ping came to power, he let bygones be bygones.
In fact, they could not be blamed. With too many rebellions, if they were to really investigate each and every one of them, Daliang might lose half of its officials.
He made an exception and promoted Du Xuwen to the provincial governor. He thought that he was a local noble family and could quickly control the situation. Who knew that Du Xuwen was talented, but unfortunately, he was a lecherous person. Because of this flaw, he secretly hooked up with the Pei family’s widow and had a bad relationship with the Pei family.
The Pei family had been suppressed by the Liu family all these years, and they were already on fire. When Prince Linchuan rebelled and sent a denunciation to the four prefectures, he was forced by Emperor Yongping to do nothing. He was the one who killed the royal family. First, it was Prince Huaiyang’s family, and then it was Prince Linchuan’s turn.
Originally, this had nothing to do with the aristocratic families. The royal family had become accustomed to killing each other.
However, this time was no small matter. The Chen Jun Yuan family had also been cleansed.
Others might not remember, but the people of Yongzhou remembered clearly that they had followed Yuan Tong to rebel against Emperor Yong Ping.
Would it be their turn after settling the accounts with King Linchuan?
The Pei family didn’t do anything, they quickly joined forces with King Linchuan and successfully captured Yongzhou.
However, the Pei family wanted Prince Linchuan to divide his forces and take Yongzhou. If Jingzhou and Yongzhou rebelled together, the chances of winning would be high. Who knew that less than half a month after Yongzhou was taken, Jingzhou was lost.
He could only fight with his back against the wall.
At this moment, the army of 100,000 troops suddenly headed south to attack Nanyang County. Yongzhou and Jingzhou were in chaos.
When Jiankang City received the news, they were still immersed in the joy of Sikong Xiao’s capture of Jing State. Jiang Xia King and Yang Shao were also on their way back to Jiankang.
Emperor Yong Ping heard a buzzing sound in his head. Yesterday had reappeared!
Yesterday reappeared!
Wasn’t this a remake of the world’s chaos?!
He threw down the military report and went straight to Xie Xian’s residence. Halfway there, he came back. Zhuge Shu and Little General Yang were not by his side, so he did not feel safe. He asked Xie Xian to enter the palace. He was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the endless mouths of the people when the world was in chaos. Before North Wu and King Linchuan attacked, he had lost the hearts of the people.
Thus, after another round of torment, they only left the palace gate when it was dark.
However, as the Son of Heaven, how could he hide from the eyes and ears of the aristocratic families? Moreover, this Emperor was afraid of death. He usually brought thirty to forty people out of the palace. In this situation, no matter how few he brought, there were still twenty-eight people. He was afraid that one less person would mean one more safety.
