The two carriages drove towards the foot of Jingshan Mountain one after the other.
Since Xiaocui didn't leave Jingshan very far, she arrived at Mrs. Cai's mansion very quickly.
"Carriage?!" The soldiers patrolling outside the door were very strange.
"That's Miss Xiaocui's carriage!" Someone recognized this carriage, Xiaocui is a celebrity around Mrs. Cai, and is much more expensive than their soldiers, so most of them would not offend Xiaocui. Instead, he pleases her.
"Didn't my aunt go out to buy rouge and powder for my wife?" A soldier asked suspiciously, seeing that there was one carriage going out behind, but now there were two carriages coming back.
"Why are you asking so much!" Another person pushed him, "Hurry up, Miss Cui, the real thing is next!" The seat of the carriage is still very high, and Xiao Cui, a maid, naturally wouldn't arrange servants Yes, you can't jump off directly, so these soldiers and grooms are responsible for taking over the carriage.
Several soldiers hurried forward and helped Xiao Cui down from the carriage. A soldier asked, "Miss Xiao Cui, why did you come back so soon! Didn't you go to buy rouge and gouache for your wife? The one behind this is" Xiao Cui Cui goes out for his wife.
"Speak too much, I want you to ask more questions!" Xiaocui said rolling her eyes at the soldier. These soldiers were assigned to Mrs. Cai by Liu Biao for a long time, so naturally they were already familiar with the people in Mrs. Cai's mansion.
Although Xiaocui blamed her, she didn't show any anger on her face, and the soldier nodded. It's okay to ask once, but it will really annoy you if you ask too many.
"Where's Madam?!" Xiaocui got off the carriage and asked a soldier leader.
"Madam is still playing chess with that young master in the courtyard!"
"Okay, I got it!" Xiao Cui said as she walked towards the mansion.
Liu Mang and Jia Xu also got out of the carriage behind them, Jia Xu was about to follow Liu Mang into the mansion behind Xiao Cui with the box, but was stopped by these guarding soldiers. It means you can't go in.
"We are with that girl!" Jia Xu stepped forward to explain, but the soldiers remained motionless.
It was Xiaocui who turned her head and said to the people next to her, "They are with me and need to see my wife, let them in!" Then the soldier nodded and said that he had moved out of the way.
Liu Mang and the others followed Xiaocui and walked directly towards the backyard. Liu Mang's current identity is just a merchant, even if he sells the value chain, but a merchant is a merchant and he is not worthy to discuss things in the main hall.
Liu Mang didn't mind as long as he could see Mrs. Cai.
After walking for a long time, although the entire mansion at the foot of Jingshan Mountain was not big, it was winding and winding. After walking through many courtyards, Xiaocui finally stopped Liu Mang and others when they reached a certain place.
She said to Liu Mang and the others, "You guys just wait here for me, I'll go and report to Madam!" Xiaocui pointed to a stone table beside a flower garden and said, "You can rest there for a while!"
"Don't run around, so as not to cause misunderstanding!" Xiao Cui added when she left.
Liu Mang also understood, and sat down with Jia Xu at the stone table.
"This Liu Biao is quite generous! How dare she give up such a mansion!" Jia Xu blinked her lips and looked at the surroundings as soon as she sat down. This is a flower garden full of flowers, fish and insects.
There are also a lot of rockery, and the whole yard can be considered to be full of greenery. You must know that it is winter now. Although there is no snow, the weather is not too mild. Many flowers in this yard are not seen in the land of Jingchu. Yes, it is not what this season should have, and there are also some strange stones that are not made of Jingchu materials. It can be said that the things in this flower garden are worth a thousand gold, let alone there is a garden over there.
... It can be said that although this mansion is small, it has all internal organs and is even better than Liu Biao's mansion in Xiangyang. In addition, it is located under Jingshan Mountain, and it is also a place for cultivating people. .
"Jingzhou is so rich, so it's natural to be willing!" Liu Mang nodded. Is Liu Biao extravagant? Of course it is extravagant, Liu Wei can see it in Liu Biao's mansion, Liu Biao's expenses and other aspects are simply extravagant, compared to Lao Cao who is so poor that his subordinates cannibalize human flesh, Liu Biao is simply a rich man, but this is not the case. It represents Liu Biao's disregard for the suffering of the people.
It is because Jingzhou is too rich, so he, the master of Jingzhou, naturally enjoys the best.
Liu Mang glanced over, there were many flowers such as peonies, such as Clivia, Liu Mang was here waiting for Xiaocui, naturally leisurely, he cast his eyes on those flowers and began to admire them.
"This is?!" When Liu Mang was observing the flowers, a very coquettish flower appeared in front of Liu Mang.
It is 30-60 centimeters high, and the main root is nearly conical and vertical. Stem erect, unbranched, slender, with white powder. Alternate leaves, ovate or long ovate with apex acuminate to blunt, heart-shaped at the base, irregular wavy serrations on both sides, white powder, obvious veins, slightly protruding; lower leaves with short stalks, upper leaves without Stalk, clasping stem.
"My lord also likes this poppy?!" Jia Xu looked in Liu Mang's direction and asked Liu Mang suspiciously.
"Poppy?!" Liu Mang asked suspiciously.
"Yes, Beauty Poppy!" Jia Xu explained to Liu Mang that Beauty Poppy was named after Xiang Yu's wife, Beauty Yu when Chu and Han were fighting, so you can know how delicate and beautiful it is. Beauty is planted in many flower gardens, but some people don't like it because it also represents life and death, symbolizing separation, so only those who prefer it will plant it.
Looking at the few flowers in the courtyard, it should be that the flower seeds fell into it accidentally.
"This is not a poppie, absolutely not!" Liu Mang shook his head. Although he doesn't know much about flowers, he knows that this is not a poppy. Face upward and the whole plant is hairy, the fruit is small.
"This is heartbroken grass!" Liu Mang confirmed.
"Heartbroken grass?!" Jia Xu was puzzled, no matter how you look at it, it is also a flower, and it has nothing to do with grass, is it heartbroken
"Hehe, this kind of thing is also called devil flower!" Liu Mang explained to Jia Xu, if you can't explain it with heartbroken grass and devil flower, then use a very familiar name, then it is poppy flower.
The flower buds of poppies are straight upward, and when they bloom, the picture is also upward. The whole plant is smooth and the fruit is large.
Liu Mang was able to know so much because the police in the community taught them how to distinguish poppies, lest someone plant them unintentionally.
"Devil flower, heartbroken grass?!" Jia Xu was even more puzzled.
"Wenhe, this kind of flower is like a devil. Once you get infected with it, you can't live without it!" Drugs originally came out of poppies.
"Once it gets infected, you can't live without it?!" Could it be so scary? Jia Xu didn't feel anything after watching it for a long time.
"Nature is the medicine extracted from this flower!"
"Isn't that the same as Wushi San!" Jia Xu mentioned a medicine that people can't do without now.
Wushi Powder, also known as Hanshi Powder, is dry and hot in nature. After taking it, it makes people feel hot all over the body and produces a short-term effect that confuses people. It originated from Qin Shihuang. During the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Shaojun and Luan Da, who believed in alchemists, burned and refined minerals such as gold and stone, and the materials were stone medicines.
This thing is very popular among the gentry of the Han people, because it can satisfy their lust.
…As for the kind of physical fitness he talks about, it is complete nonsense.
"The things made by this kind of flower are only worse than this five-stone powder!" The five-stone powder can still be quit, but once it is contaminated with this thing, it is basically impossible to get rid of it. In modern history, this is what caused it.
"Furthermore, five-stone powder is difficult to make, and this thing can be made as long as there is a small piece of land!" Five-stone powder can only be circulated among the gentry, that is because it is very difficult to make, and poppy It's really easy to make flowers, as long as a piece of land, several kilograms can be produced from one mu of fertile land!
"This trip is not in vain, this trip is not in vain!" Liu Mang suddenly laughed when he saw the poppy flower. Although the poppy flower is demonized, you have to know whose hands it is used for.
What Liu Mang has always wanted to solve is the gentry of the big Han. This group of gentry controls the whole world. It can be said that it is not so much the world of the emperor Lao Tzu as the world of the gentry, and your emperor is just The older gentry, once you decline, will immediately pull you down.
And if you want to get rid of this group of gentry, you must not force it. The power of that group of gentry is very huge. Now Liu Mang in Jingzhou does not go to Liu Biao but the Cai family and the Kuai family. It has been able to influence the decision-making of the head of a state without any influence.
But Liu Mang needed something to disintegrate this group of gentry, at least to hurt their vitality and even control them.
And this poppy opened a door for Liu Mang. It's just that this poppy cannot fall into the hands of others.
Just imagine that although poppies are easy to grow, as long as Liu Mang controls the amount of his outflow, he will be as precious as five stone powder, and ordinary people can't afford it, but those gentry can enjoy it. Contaminated with this thing, you are waiting to go bankrupt! If Liu Biao in Jingzhou is now infected with drug addiction, Liu Mang still needs to travel thousands of miles to Jingzhou! Once Liu Biao's drug source is directly controlled, Liu Biao will obediently send money and food.
Liu Mang calmly controlled his emotions, lowered his voice and said to Jia Xu, "Regardless of whether this trip is successful or not, I must get these flowers, and it is even better to have their seeds!"
"These flowers!"
"With these few flowers, we have opened the gates of hell!" Liu Mang muttered to himself.
…
Xiaocui has already entered the courtyard where Mrs. Cai and Pang Tong are playing chess. Seeing that they are playing chess, Xiaocui stands aside knowingly and waits until the chess game between the two is over.
"Madam, I won again!" Pang Tong said to Madam Cai with a silent smile.
"Mr. Pang is talented, so the concubine's status is naturally inferior!" Mrs. Cai also dropped the chess piece, and he didn't care about winning or losing. Playing the chess pieces was very boring, because Pang Tong was so competitive that no game was bad. Of course, Madam Cai won't be allowed to win. What's the point of such a losing streak
"You servant girl has been standing aside for a long time, tell me, what's the matter?!" Mrs. Cai naturally saw Xiaocui standing aside. She asked Xiaocui to go to Xiangyang to buy rouge and gouache. Come on, Xiaocui came back just after the end of the game, there must be something wrong.
"Huh?!" Mrs. Cai sniffed her nose, and a scent entered Mrs. Cai's nose. It was a floral scent, but it was different. This scent was a bit mixed, but it was comparable to the real floral scent. Be heavier.
And the source of this fragrance is confirmed to come from her maidservant. Looking at Xiaocui's face, Mrs. Cai found something, this Xiaocui's face? The original one was the kind that was blown dry by the wind, and could only be covered with rouge powder, but now the face has been washed off with rouge powder, but the face is not dry at all, but has a roundness, which is exposed to the sun. There is still light under the light.
... Mrs. Cai is very curious, but he, a master, will naturally not ask directly, and wait for Xiaocui to report!
"Miss, I have already bought the rouge and gouache! You can see the effect of using this rouge and gouache on the maidservant's face!" Xiaocui came forward and said to Mrs. Cai.
As Xiaocui got closer, Mrs. Cai realized that not only her face had changed, but her hair had also changed. Her hair became black and shiny, and a scent of fragrance rushed to her face as soon as she got close to her.
With Xiaocui's appearance like this, even Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan beside him couldn't help but take a second look.
"And this lip gloss! And this skin care product!" Xiaocui showed what Liu Mang taught him in front of Mrs. Cai.
"Where did these rouge powder come from?!" Mrs. Cai has never seen these things. She is a noble lady, and she can be said to stay in the boudoir regardless of other things. Naturally, she is interested in whitening and beautifying, but Xiaocui said Everything, Madam Cai, let alone done it, has never even heard of it.
"These are rouge and gouache from the Western Regions!" Xiaocui said to Mrs. Cai.
"Oh?" It's not that there are no merchants from the Western Regions. There are merchants from all walks of life in Jingzhou, a commercially developed place, but this is really the first time I've seen merchants from the Western Regions bring rouge and gouache.
"Everything is made with the essence of flowers and plants and the morning dew. The price is very expensive. Just one item costs tens of gold!" Xiao Cui also mentioned the price. How much effect depends on how expensive he is. When the price is mentioned, everyone will be dumbfounded by him.
Sure enough, even Pang Tong became curious, how expensive is this rouge and gouache from the Western Regions? Dozens of gold, looking at Xiaocui's introduction, there are seven or eight kinds, this adds up to more than a hundred gold, what is this rouge gouache made of, it is so expensive.
"Isn't there enough money?!" Madam Cai felt itchy after hearing Xiaocui's words. What is the most important thing in a woman's mind, the first is appearance and the second is clothes, bags and shoes. That's why those who sell cosmetics can make such a profit. .
Men conquered the world, women conquered men, and finally cosmetics and clothes conquered women.
"Go to the warehouse to get a hundred gold!" Although there are many hundred gold, it is not much for Mrs. Cai, so seeing the effect on Xiaocui's face, her heart is naturally moved.
"No, no, no!" Xiaocui shook her hand.
"Isn't that enough?!" Mrs. Cai asked suspiciously.
"It's not enough!" Xiao Cui explained, "The merchant from the Western Regions who sells rouge and gouache has arrived in the mansion! They want to see Madam, and they say they want to dedicate this rouge and gouache to Madam!" Liu Mang gave one set to Mrs. Cai, if Liu Mang is not willing, she can give away her own set.
"You!" Before Mrs. Cai could answer, Pang Tong beside her immediately became angry.
"Who told you to bring someone in, you poor maid!" Pang Tong immediately scolded Xiao Cui in a rage. He made it clear that in the past few days, no guests were allowed in the Cai family's mansion, but this little girl Cui, however, brought people in quietly. Pang Tong is now a frightened bird, or he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes. He always strives for perfection in everything he does. Such a Western Region businessman actually How could Pang Tong not be angry when he was brought into the mansion. Speaking of anger, he stepped forward and slapped Xiao Cui on the face.
"Ah!" Xiao Cui was slapped on the face by Pang Tong and fell to the ground. Although Pang Tong was a little darker and fatter, he was a man after all, and the strength in his hands was not small. Xiao Cui's face turned red immediately , with a big slap imprint on it.
Xiaocui fell on the ground with tears on her face, she didn't know what happened, she was suddenly slapped on the face by Pang Tong, she was as wronged as she could be.
... "Presumptuous!" Mrs. Cai's guards on the side are also on good terms with Miss Xiaocui. When they saw Xiaocui being beaten, they naturally scolded them. The group drew their swords. Pang Tong's body was broken into pieces.
"Why, Ma'am, is she going to do something to me?!"
Originally Mrs. Cai was going to scold Xiaocui, but seeing Pang Tong's words and actions, Mrs. Cai was also angry.
"Stop!" Mrs. Cai suppressed her anger. Even if this Xiaocui did something wrong and brought someone in without authorization, she was still Mrs. Cai's maid, and Mrs. Cai should be the one to teach the lesson. It's not up to you Pang Tong to teach you a lesson.
"Mr. Pang, you have passed!" Mrs. Cai looked at Pang Tong and said with a pretty frown.
"Mrs. Cai, you haven't forgotten our agreement!" Pang Tong also knew that he had gone too far. This Xiao Cui was Mrs. Cai's maidservant, but he was not in the habit of bowing his head to a woman, so Pang Tong squinted at Cai. Mrs.
"Agreed!" Mrs. Cai's pupils dilated suddenly, because Pang Tong's words were good, and they did have an agreement. She hadn't seen any guests these days, and Pang Tong agreed to let Lumen Academy stand in the subsequent dispute between the princes of Jingzhou. On the side of her Cai's house.
Mrs. Cai is really afraid of Lumen Academy, and this heir of the Pang family, if it was just the Pang family, Mrs. Cai would have kicked Pang Tong out long ago. She and Xiaocui are not just master-servant relationships. After following Mrs. Cai, she can be regarded as Mrs. Cai's sister in the boudoir. How could the sister be able to bear it when she was beaten!
Mrs. Cai took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart, "Mr. Pang, please respect yourself. Lumen Academy is not named Pang, and the head of the Pang family is not named Tong!" She admitted it, but after that, you, Pang Tong, can no longer do anything. If you continue to behave like this, then Mrs. Cai will no longer be patient.
Although Lumen Academy gave the Pang family face, it was for Mr. Pang De, and the head of the Pang family is not you, Pang Tong. If you really count, Mrs. Cai can make Pang Tong feel overwhelmed.
"Hmm!" Pang Tong's eyes narrowed even deeper. Mrs. Cai is threatening him, telling him that you need to understand your identity, and that you can talk to me, but it doesn't mean you can get past me.
Pang Tong's eyes are squinted. If it weren't for Pang Tong's small eyes, he could obviously feel the killing intent from those small eyes, yes! It is killing intent. Pang Tong is very competitive. What he hates the most is being threatened and looked down upon. Even his brother's best friend is still killed. Let alone Mrs. Cai, Pang Tong will definitely not let Mrs. Cai go if it is possible of.
"Hahahahaha! Ma'am, forgive me, Pang Tong was reckless just now! Miss Xiaocui is really sorry!" Pang Tong said to Xiaocui and Madam Cai with a half-smile.
Mrs. Cai was very dissatisfied with Pang Tong's perfunctory, but at least she had a step down, and now is not the time to turn against Pang Tong.
"This matter is over like this! Xiao Cui, go to the outer courtyard and drive away those businessmen from the Western Regions!" Pang Tong lowered his head, and Madam Cai naturally wanted to show face.
"Yes!" Xiaocui lowered her head and sobbed. It can be said that Xiaocui was slapped on the face for the first time after being by Mrs. Cai's side all these years. Mrs. Cai looked distressed, but she couldn't! I can only wait until this kind of thing is over, and then go to comfort Xiao Cui.
"No need!" Just as Xiaocui was about to leave, a voice rang out, and two figures broke into the courtyard directly.
"Who is it!" The guards around Mrs. Cai immediately reacted, and walked towards the source of the sound with swords in their hands, wrapping the two figures in the center.
... "Haha, Mrs. Cai, this is how a lady treats guests!" One of the two said loudly.
"It's you!" It's not that Mrs. Cai has never met Liu Mang. She has seen Liu Mang in Liu Biao's mansion, but it was only a one-off chance.
"It's right here!" Liu Mang smiled and walked out. It was good that Xiaocui let them wait outside for a short time, but after a long time, Liu Mang immediately became a little impatient. Anyway, they had already entered the Cai's mansion. up.
What Jia Xu was afraid of was that Mrs. Cai would never see them again, so Liu Mang just broke in after thinking about it.
"Brother Pang Tong is here too!" Liu Mang showed a sarcasm with the corner of his mouth raised, and now he was finally sure, who was the one who made Mrs. Cai not see him, and it turned out to be this Jingzhou little turkey.
"Hmph!" Seeing Pang Tong coming, he immediately snorted coldly. He turned his head to look at Xiaocui. The resentment became deeper and deeper. It was all because of this maid who let Liu Mang sneak in. What is there? Isn't the businessman in the Western Regions Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang!
Xiaocui could not help but shudder when she saw Pang Tong looking at herself with sinister eyes.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu has started a business now! Could it be that Yangzhou has reached this level!" Pang Tong sneered.
What Pang Tong meant was that Yangzhou was so poor that even their lord had to do business.
"You are His Highness the King of Shu?!" Xiao Cui covered her mouth and said in surprise.
Liu Mang smiled at Xiao Cui and nodded. He heard Pang Tong slap Xiao Cui outside, so for Xiao Cui, Liu Mang looked at her apologetically. Heart warm drink.
"Hehe! What do you want me to do with your business?! There are some people hiding behind the scenes to stir up trouble!" Liu Wei and Pang Tong's thoughts are completely different. For Pang Tong, a gentleman lives far away, and a businessman Humble, but for Liu Mang, relying on his own ability to eat, what is the difference between everyone! "Besides, I'm here to give Mrs. Yu a present!"
"Hehe, I really don't know when His Royal Highness the King of Shu came from the Western Regions!" Pang Tong wanted to demolish Liu Mang.
"Western Region? It's just a place in the world. This king has been to many places! I don't want some frogs in the well to think they are right, but they don't know the heights of heaven and earth!" Liu Mang never gave Pang Tong face, he just beat him up. Face.
"Puff, puff!" Liu Mang shook his head, "The etiquette of poetry and books is like a dog's belly, even women do it! Pang Gong's family is unfortunate!" Xiao Cui was beaten by Pang Tong because of Liu Mang. Liu Mang will naturally stand up for him.
"Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang!" Pang Tong blushed, looking at Liu Mang, if he couldn't beat Liu Mang, Pang Tong would have stepped forward to fight.
Mrs. Cai and Xiaocui next to her became supporting roles instead, watching the two of them quarreling with each other.
But subconsciously, Madam Cai's favorability towards Liu Mang increased by one point.
"Brother Pang Tong, please step aside a little bit! This king is here to find his wife, brother Pang, you are in the way!" Liu Mang looked at Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan in disgust.
"Hmph, please go back, Your Highness the King of Shu, Mrs. Cai is not seeing any guests today!" Pang Tong said coldly to Liu Mang.
"When will your brother Pang Tong be able to make decisions for Madam?!" Liu Mang asked back.
"It's up to me!" Pang Tong was about to reveal his deal with Mrs. Cai in anger.
"I don't know what's the matter with your Highness looking for a concubine!" Mrs. Cai came forward to speak to Liu Wei, and interrupted Pang Tong's indiscriminate words.
"Madam, I'm here this time!" Liu Mang was about to speak.
"If Your Highness has anything to do with government affairs, please go to Xiangyang and talk to the concubine's master, as a woman can't speak!" Mrs. Cai is a woman, and women are more calm than men. Although the words were not very aggressive, they told Liu Mang bluntly that it is useless for you to find me.
...Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, Liu Wei really didn't expect to be directly rejected by Mrs. Cai, but Liu Wei didn't expect to succeed directly. So I just froze for a moment and then laughed out loud, "Madam misunderstood!"
"Wen He, pass it on!" Jia Xu behind him handed a big wooden box to Liu Mang.
"Miss Xiao Cui, come here!" Liu Mang nodded Xiao Cui behind him, looked at the palm mark on Xiao Cui's face, and couldn't help but said with distress, "Does it hurt?" Liu Mang stretched out his hand to touch it. That handprint.
But then Liu Mang came to his senses, men and women could not kiss each other, Liu Mang reacted to it, but Xiao Cui's shy face turned rosy.
"Miss Xiaocui, I really feel guilty for causing you to be hurt by a traitor, so I ask Miss Xiaocui to accept this portion of rouge and gouache!" Liu Mang's words were already insinuating, saying that Pang Tong was Traitor.
"Your Highness, me?!" Xiaocui wanted to accept it, but pushed her back, and turned her head to look at Mrs. Cai, who was her master.
Mrs. Cai didn't answer, but nodded slightly. Xiaocui was beaten by Pang Tong, and Liu Mang's responsibility was really indispensable, and these were regarded as compensation.
"Miss Xiaocui, don't refuse." Liu Mang put the wrapped cosmetics in Xiaocui's hands directly, and she was not allowed to refuse. "Miss Xiaocui, there is still a mark on her face, let the servants cook it Egg, push it away and roll it on the face like this, it can remove puffiness!" Liu Mang taught Xiaocui a way.
"The confession is over, the confession is over, please leave His Highness the King of Shu, my wife and I still have a chess game to play!" Pang Tong immediately chased away.
"Madam, when the king came this time, I didn't talk about political affairs, but only about Fengyue, the rouge and gouache from the Western Regions. I believe my wife has also seen it from Miss Xiaocui. As for the effect, I also understand the effect! There is no eternal 28 years, only forever. How to maintain it!" Liu Wei directly ignored Pang Tong who was next to him and talked with Mrs. Cai about the way of maintenance.
"Just like the wrinkles on this face!" Liu Mang's words directly attracted Mrs. Cai, just like Xiao Cui back then, Mrs. Cai listened patiently, regardless of what Pang Tong said beside her. , that is, there is no chase.
Don't think Mrs. Cai is a fool, Mrs. Cai doesn't know what Pang Tong thinks! Didn't he just want Yangzhou to be unable to buy food and grass? Mrs. Cai didn't want to get involved in the struggle between Yangzhou and Yuzhou. Mrs. Cai also agreed to the big pie of Pang Tong's Lumen Academy, so naturally it was with Liu Mang Let's just talk about Fengyue, as long as you don't talk about government affairs, you, Pang Tong, have nothing to say.
Liu Mang's maintenance theory simply makes Mrs. Cai mesmerized, such as dark circles, how to maintain dry face, and some things about weight loss. Liu Mang also speaks clearly and logically, making Mrs. Cai nod her head .
But when Mrs. Cai was intoxicated, Liu Mang suddenly stopped and looked straight at Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan.
"What's up, Your Highness?!" Mrs. Cai couldn't stop, because Liu Mang's words almost covered her troubles. Now Mrs. Cai has a tease on her face and she is thirty. There are naturally wrinkles on the face, although they cannot be removed, they can indeed be covered up.
"Hehe, ma'am, some things are related to some commercial secrets, and some people shouldn't be here!" Some people Liu Wei said were naturally Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan. After Liu Wei entered the mansion, Pang Tong could not be driven away, so Pang Tong simply stayed, you talk about yours, I watch you talk, as long as Liu Mang talked about money and food, he immediately refuted it.
Mrs. Cai was a bit embarrassed. He had an agreement with Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan, but Liu Mang's words made her want to stop. After a long time, Mrs. Cai looked at Pang Tong and said solemnly to Pang Tong, "Mr. The concubine will never forget what I said, just talk about love and moon, regardless of government affairs!"
...This is a promise from Mrs. Cai to Pang Tong. She wants to make a deal with Pang Tong so that Lumen Academy will help Liu Zong in the subsequent dispute between princes, but she also wants to get some maintenance methods from Liu Mang.
In Liu Mang's mouth, there is a secret recipe for maintenance that has been passed down among girls. This is also what Chen Yi asked Liu Mang to recite, for Liu Mang's use in dating girls in the future.
Mrs. Cai has said so, how could Pang Tong not be able to hear it, this is to expel people, Pang Tong snorted coldly, "I hope Madam will keep the promise!" Pang Tong wanted to stay, but had to leave.
Because Xiao Cui, who was beaten by him, was already staring at Pang Tong under the protection of the guards.
Seeing Pang Tong walk away, Liu Mang was full of smiles.
"Your Highness, only talk about Fengyue, regardless of government affairs!" Mrs. Cai reminded again.
Liu Mang frowned in his heart, this woman is really difficult to deal with, if it wasn't for these maintenance prescriptions that fascinated her, Liu Mang would really be kicked out by her, what kind of conditions did this Pang Tong offer to make this woman behave like this? strong.
Liu Mang is no longer the kind of emotion he used to be defeated in front of him. Now he also knows how to hide his thoughts. The surface and the inside are two different things.
"Of course!" Liu Mang smiled frankly, "Today we only talk about Fengyue, regardless of government affairs!" Liu Mang didn't say anything to death. If we don't talk about it today, it doesn't mean we won't talk about it tomorrow, right
Mrs. Cai also smiled indifferently, as soon as Liu Mang finished speaking, she would drive away immediately.
…
"Damn it, hate it!" Pang Tong returned to his room, finally couldn't help it, and vented all the anger he received from Liu Mang.
"False King Liu Mang. Go to hell, go to hell!" Pang Tongmeng put his foot on the table and kicked the whole table over.
"And that lowly servant girl, I will definitely want you to die!" Pang Tong and Meng De also overturned the bookshelf, his anger is rising now.
"Mrs. Cai! Wait, when I finish dealing with Liu Mang in Yangzhou, I will definitely win your Jingzhou. I will send you to the army and become a soldier!" Pang Tong's face was so dark that it made all the men around Don't dare to approach.
"Military commander, be careful, be careful!" The men beside him turned pale with fright. Everyone knows that you have thoughts about Jingzhou, but you can't say it so bluntly. Yes, this is Mrs. Cai's mansion, don't be afraid that the walls have ears, when the time comes, none of them will be able to leave this mansion.
"Hmph!" Pang Tong also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and immediately closed his mouth, but he couldn't hide his serious anger.
"Military commander, calm down!" Pang Tong's subordinates on the side comforted Pang Tong, "Military officer, didn't Mrs. Cai give the military officer a guarantee! Only talk about love affairs, regardless of government affairs!"
"Do you believe it?!" Pang Tong asked back.
This subordinate wanted to say that he believed it, but when he saw Pang Tong's appearance, he dared not speak immediately. For a woman, besides makeup, it is important to have children. In order for Liu Zong to get this Jingzhou, Mrs. Cai will still abide by the rules.
Pang Tong also believed it, but he was just upset, and Pang Tong was also afraid. He was afraid that Liu Mang would make a comeback again inadvertently. As soon as he entered Liu Biao's mansion, Liu Mang was completely hopeless, but who knows, now Liu Mang appeared again, which made Pang Tong's lungs explode with anger, that lowly maid, lowly maid.
no! Pang Tong couldn't stand his own failure anymore, he had to win, even if it was by any means.
"Military division? Military division?!" Pang Tong's subordinates looked at Pang Tong's expression and couldn't help worrying, because Pang Tong's face changed from anger to hatred, followed by a kind of resentment, and finally turned into a kind of coldness.
…"Mrs. Cai, bitch, since you are not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous!" The sinister look on Pang Tong's face made people feel terrified to see it, and Pang Tong was so ugly that his entire facial features were distorted Get up, like Shura climbing up from hell.
"Military teacher, this thing?!" Seeing Pang Tong take out a small jade bottle from among the objects he brought, he was stunned for a moment. This white jade carved bottle is worth dozens of gold. They are all worth money, that is the most famous thing in the music hall, Liu Mang is very impressed with him, that is the drunk fairy dew.
The former barbarian princess ate only a little bit from a small spoon, that is, a drop or two from the jade screen, but what Pang Tong took out was a whole bottle.
Pang Tong bought this thing with a lot of money. It was originally intended to return to Yuzhou, Nanyang, for his lord Liu Bei, to please Liu Bei. Liu Bei is now nearly fifty years old, but he has no heirs. If this continues, Liu Bei The hearts of the subordinates will be scattered, so Liu Bei needs to work hard, but Liu Bei is old after all, and he doesn't care much about some women, and this drunk fairy dew is going to be brought back to Liu Bei. Let Liu Bei's sword not grow old.
But unexpectedly, Pang Tong took it out.
"There are people from us in this mansion, right?" Pang Tong asked the subordinates beside him.
"Yes, yes, there are three people in total, one is the guard in the outer courtyard, the other is the handyman in the kitchen, and the third is a maidservant next to Madam Cai!" Of these three people, the maidservant has the highest status , although not as good as Xiao Cui, but this status is not low, and she can speak in front of Mrs. Cai.
"It's time to use them!" Pang Tong sneered, and took out the jade bottle in his hand, "Go, pour this into the teacup of that bitch and fake king Liu Mang!"
"Ah!" Pang Tong's subordinates were shocked by Pang Tong's thoughts.
"But like this, that maidservant?!" This maidservant had managed to get into the mansion, and it would be over after such a use.
"The value is enough! Isn't it enough to exchange a maidservant for a wife, and Jingzhou and Yangzhou go to war?" Pang Tong's face became more and more sinister. r1152
