"Zhuge Kongming!" Liu Mang's shocking voice resounded in the mansion of King Shu.
In the hall of the backyard of the Prince of Shu’s mansion, there are quite a few people gathered now. Above the titles are princes and concubines, above the official positions there are inner ministers and ministers. It can be said that the top personnel of Yangzhou have gathered here.
This is a trial in three halls, and above the seats are several members of Liu Mang's family who are in charge, one concubine and two wives are all present, even the concubine Qian Yu is here. Liu Mang sat on the main seat, superficially majestic, but in his heart he was retreating.
Standing below are Zhuge Liang, Lu Su, Xu Shu and others. There is another person kneeling below, and that is our Miss Sun Shangxiang. The scene was terribly calm, but it was Liu Mang who broke the silence,
"Zhuge Kongming, tell me, what should you do?" Liu Mang preemptively, questioning Zhuge Kongming below with a gloomy face. Let's see how these wives react, but it is obvious that Liu Mang is disappointed. These beautiful wives have already practiced the ability to deal with things indifferently and settle accounts afterward.
"What is your crime?" Zhuge Liang asked Liu Mang in surprise.
"Are you not guilty? You are not guilty, this, this Sun Shangxiang" Liu Mang originally planned to call Sun Shangxiang by her boudoir name, but before the word Shang was spoken, the brows of the tigresses beside him frowned. Didn't she have adultery long ago when she became a boudoir? So Liu Mang changed his title, "What's the matter with Sun Changhu!"
"Oh, it turns out that the lord called me here early in the morning to talk about Sun Changhu's affairs." Liu Mang was sitting upright, but the Zhuge villager here didn't care at all.
"It's not this matter or what it is!"
"This matter is simple. It's human nature to love men and women." Zhuge Liang dismissed it casually.
"Huh?" After saying this. Immediately, four pairs of beautiful eyes stared over. OK! Originally, Liu Mang came here to cry and worry that he was framed, but now he is fine, according to Zhuge Liang, you have already thought about this Sun Changhu.
"Ma'am, I, I was wronged!" Liu Mang expressed his wrongedness with his eyes, and glared at Zhuge Liang casually.
Villager Zhuge, you hurt me, Liu Mang gritted his teeth at Zhuge Liang in his heart, "Zhuge Shangshu. You should know what I mean, this Sun Changhu, he was allowed by the king to leave Yangzhou and go back to Jiangdong, why is he still here? I, Yangzhou, still, still appear in this king's room." Liu Mang said the last few words falteringly.
"It turns out that the lord is asking about this matter!" Zhuge Liang suddenly realized, "Sun Changhu originally left, but he had something to discuss with the lord. It was Zijing who told Sun Changhu the location of the lord's mansion. The general asked Sun Changhu to enter the lord's mansion, and seeing that it was getting late, he took a rest early in the lord's mansion, what's wrong? What happened to the lord!" Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Mang innocently.
"Me. Me, you, you!" Liu Mang pointed at Zhuge Liang, not knowing what to say. Liu Mang just remembered that the place where he slept last night was indeed in the wing room next to the study, not his master bedroom. Generally speaking, the wing room is for the owner, but it can also be used by guests. Liu Mang is reading a book. Tired, he asked his subordinates Guan Hai and Zhou Cang to find a wing room near the study to sleep at will, and a woman came out after sleeping.
"Oh, it turns out that His Royal Highness the King of Shu didn't want to go to the good master bedroom, and he likes to sleep in the wing room." Da Qiao next to him gave Liu Mang a beautiful look.
"Madam, I was wronged, you have to believe me." Liu Mang looked at his wives with his eyes, "I really don't know."
"You don't even know there are people around you when you're sleeping." Miss Lu also spoke.
"Hehe, of course my lord knows. The lady of the Sun family got into the wing room before the lord. There is a beautiful lady in the bed, how could she not know!." It was already a crisis situation, and this idiot Zhou Cang came to add to the trouble again.
"Don't talk too much!" As soon as Zhou Cang opened his mouth, Guan Hai next to him turned pale with fright. He quickly grabbed Zhou Cang but it was too late. The lord has punished you, Zhou Cang, which pot is not open and which pot is not to be lifted. Guan Hai already sensed the murderous gaze of the protagonist Liu Mang.
"Hehe!" Liu Mang sneered at Zhou Cang twice, and Zhou Cang seemed to know that he was talking too much, so he could only smile awkwardly.
"Zhou Cang, why are the pastries delivered to my study always missing two yuan!" Liu Mang said to Zhou Cang with a sneer. Zhou Cang is greedy for food, basically he will secretly hide a few of the gourmet desserts given to Liu Mang in the mansion.
"I, I, I was testing poison for you, my lord, you can't let me eat poisonous things!" When did this idiot learn to use excuses.
"Yes! You will be so good"
"Of course, I Zhou Cang is loyal to you, my lord, and I will never let anyone or anything hurt my lord." Zhou Cang said righteously.
"Then why I heard people in the mansion say that you often go to the kitchen!"
"I, I'm looking at the kitchen, isn't it busy? I'm here to help. Look, my lord, you don't recruit any people in such a big mansion, and they can't be too busy. How can those maids move?" Those food bags, I'm going to help them." Liu Mang didn't like that there were too many maids and house servants who were dismissed except for some necessary ones.
"Oh, so I have to thank you!"
"That's unnecessary, I am willing to help others and diligent in giving!"
"Since you like to help others so much, well, from today onwards, you will give me up as a guard and help me in the kitchen, Liu Chen," Liu Mang shouted to the butler Mo Yang next to him.
"My lord!"
"Zhou Cang will teach you"
"Ah! My lord, when will General Zhou go back?" Liu Chen said.
"When will there be no shortage of people in the kitchen? When are you telling him to come back?" Liu Mang has nothing to say to this idiot, he can't beat him, he can't kill him, don't you like going to the kitchen? Throw him in the kitchen Do some hard work in the midst of it, so that you can see it without seeing it.
"Master, my lord. I. I..." Zhou Cang wanted to argue but was held back by Guan Hai. "Thank you, my lord, for your grace!"
"Why are you still waiting for Liu Chen to bring Zhou Hanhao down?" Liu Mang didn't make a fuss, but Zhou Cang didn't tell him that he brought a woman into his wing. It's a good thing that Sun Shangxiang didn't do anything wrong, if Sun Shangxiang had a different heart, then Liu Mang would be miserable. Seeing this idiot being left behind, Liu Mang felt a little more at ease.
"Hehe, His Royal Highness King Shu is so majestic!" Although Miss Lu and others beside him did not stop Liu Wei from dealing with Zhou Cang, they still sneered twice.
Liu Mang felt at ease for a while, and couldn't help but smiled wryly again. "Ma'am, I really didn't know at first."
"Who knows if you know it!"
Fortunately, Zhuge Liang finally stopped pretending to be stupid. "My lord, my mistress, as a king, there should be a hundred and twenty concubines of the king: one queen, three wives, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and female imperial concubines." Eighty-one people. As the king of Han and Shu, although the lord is no more than a hundred and twenty people than the concubine, there should be three or four people, so as to show everyone's posture!"
The so-called number of three or four is three wives and four concubines. This is to let Liu Mang not marry one hundred and twenty, but you must have three wives and four concubines anyway, otherwise you, a prince, will make people laugh.
"Three wives and four concubines? Huh!" A cold snort came, and the women beside him all stepped towards Liu Mang, with a cold light in their eyes. They all wondered if this Zhuge Liang had been prepared by Liu Mang in advance. . The reason is to let Liu Mang marry three wives and four concubines.
Liu Mang was simply wronged.
"Mencius once said, there are three unfilial sons and no descendants are the greatest! The Lord is the king of Shu in the Han Dynasty. He sits in Yangzhou but has no heirs. Although the Lord is in the prime of life, the hearts of the people are not at ease. Therefore, it is urgent to increase the number of people and prosper the king. "Zhuge Liang's words made the women beside him dumbfounded, and Miss Lu couldn't help but become gloomy, because these few days have come, but none of them are pregnant. Liu Mang is the king of Shu, logically speaking At this age, at least there must be several daughters and sons. If you don't follow the ancestral precepts, you must take concubines.
"Finally, the noble wife is also the eldest son!" Zhuge Liang began to divide Liu Mang's wives. You must know that they are determined not to let Liu Mang bring a woman back. Zhuge Liang is telling them that even if Liu Mang has a woman outside, But in terms of reputation, you are still the big ones. You are not thinking about whether Liu Mang has someone outside. You can’t control it. After all, where is Liu Mang’s identity? What you want to do is to be a legitimate son. As long as you have children, you will be more expensive than your mother. Even if your concubine has children, she will not be as good as you. Those of the concubine's family are called concubines, and you are called sons of concubines. Those who can inherit the king's title can even inherit Liu Mang's family business.
"Second miss of the Sun family is closely related to the great cause of the lord, and success or failure depends on it. I hope the mistress and the others will put the overall situation first!" Zhuge Liang knelt down with Lu Su who was beside him as he said. Originally, getting married and accepting concubines was the business of the princess.
After all, he is a big woman, just like the queen in charge of the harem, Zhuge Liang, an outsider, can't get in his mouth, but it's different now, Zhuge Liang used righteousness to suppress these people.
"Sister, sister, what do you think!" Miss Lu asked next to her.
"My father has three wives and seventy-two concubines." Yuan Fang said to Miss Lu personally. Yuan Fang agreed, and Qian Yu who was beside her didn't speak, because her father was a barbarian king and had more than a dozen wives, so Liu Mang was considered good.
Qiao Yu walked directly in front of Sun Shangxiang below, "You are a Xiang girl, do you still remember my sister!" Qiao Yu asked Sun Shangxiang with a smile.
"You, you, are you sister Yu'er?" Sun Shangxiang couldn't believe it. Although Qiao Yu was the head of the family, on the surface, Miss Lu was in front. So Sun Shangxiang couldn't see Qiao Yu's appearance clearly, but now he can see clearly.
"No, Sister Yu'er died in Wancheng!" Sun Shangxiang shook his head.
"Silly girl, if I die, who are you seeing now? I still remember when you used bamboo slips to roast my rabbit." Qiao Yu said to Sun Shangxiang. Back then, Qiao Yu and his sister raised a rabbit. The little rabbit didn't expect to be skinned and roasted by a wild girl like Sun Shangxiang. The firewood he roasted turned out to be his brother's book of war. It was quite a beating.
"Are you really Sister Yu'er?" Sun Shangxiang couldn't believe it.
"Let's talk about everything with my sister later." After speaking, Qiao Yu pulled Sun Shangxiang to their place.
"What, what's the situation?" Liu Mang was a little dazed.
"Hmph, my good husband, if there are any sisters in the mansion in the future, you need to speak to me directly. If there is no such thing as today. Hmph!" Qiao Yu snorted coldly at Liu Mang twice, expressing his affection All of this is considered to be directed and acted by Liu Mang himself. He wanted to marry Sun Shangxiang, but he was afraid that his wife would stop him, so he dragged Zhuge Liang, Lu Su and others to act.
"Mistress Mingjian" Zhuge Liang and Lu Su knelt down again.
"When will the wedding be arranged?" Zhuge Liang who was beside him asked again.
Qiao Yu said, "Sister Xiang'er has been eaten by someone and she has become a husband and wife. Naturally, the sooner the better."
"The day after tomorrow will be a good day, I don't know if it is possible?" Zhuge Liang said again.
"Can!"
"Who should the letter be sent to, and when will it be done!" The two asked and answered. Leaving Liu Mang as the party aside, as if this wasn't his wedding, Liu Mang could only smile bitterly and sit upright.
…
"What, Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang are going to get married again?" A serious middle-aged man in the Lujiang River suddenly sat up, with a trace of sullen expression on his face, "This Liu Mang boy, it is true that the sword in his hand is not good enough, and he keeps repeating it again and again." Get married again and again, where will you put my Linger!"
"Oh, I said that you can't extinguish the flames, Lord Marquis. Now you are a general of Fuguo, why are you still so edgy!" A lady next to him said dissatisfiedly to the middle-aged man.
"Ma'am. This boy Liu Mang is going to get married again. He already has four women. He still wants to have more. The matter of Madam Cai in Jingzhou has not been settled with him yet. Here it is again. Where did he put Linger from our family!" Needless to say, this middle-aged man knew that it was our father-in-law, Lu Bu Lu Fengxian, "No, I have to go to Shouchun, I want to have a good talk with this kid .”
"My lord, general, you should sit down for me. What's wrong with the four women? My lord, you also took three wives." Mrs. Yan said to her husband.
"Hmph, I only had three, but he took four!" Lu Bu said dissatisfied.
"Oh, you sons-in-law!" Mrs. Yan shook her head with a smile. Lu Bu was afraid that his daughter would suffer. On the one hand, there was another convenience, that is, Lu Bu was jealous. Your boy took my daughter. Dad's close-fitting padded jacket, father-in-law and son-in-law were enemies in the previous life, and in this life marry your daughter to take revenge on you. Now you not only snatched my little padded jacket, but also got more wives than my father-in-law, how can I be comfortable, I am not convinced.
"My lord, don't forget that although Mang'er took four wives, he failed to marry the most beautiful woman in the world," Madam Yan comforted Lu Bu.
"En, that makes sense!" Lu Bu nodded, Diao Chan's beauty is unparalleled in the world, although there are compliments in it, but Diao Chan is indeed a great beauty, at least in Lu Bu's mind, she is the most beautiful in the world. Lu Bu feels much more comfortable, no matter how many wives you marry. I, Lu Bu, married the number one woman in the world.
Mrs. Yan shook her head involuntarily, she no longer had the kind of jealousy towards Mrs. Diao Chan, because she is old after all, almost forty, and now Mrs. Yan is only thinking about family and everything Just be happy, as long as your daughter is doing well.
"Don't go to Mang'er's wedding, so as not to cause trouble for Mang'er!" Madam Yan said to Lu Bu.
"I won't go, why did you go to a woman's house?" Lu Bu frowned and said.
"It's of course my use to go. Ling'er has been with Mang'er for such a long time, but she doesn't have half an heir yet. Don't worry about being a father, but I am in a hurry!" Mrs. Yan has long wanted to report grandson.
"Which recipe do you want to use?" Lu Bu frowned and said.
"Well, I will have an heir as soon as possible, and my mother will feel at ease."
"Okay, you go, I will send someone to escort you to Shouchun."
"It's useless now, Mang'er has sent someone to pick me up." Mrs. Yan said with a smile. It is impossible for Liu Mang to keep Zhou Cang in the kitchen all the time. Putting him in the kitchen is like putting mice in the rice vat, so Liu Mang sent Zhou Cang to Lujiang directly, and asked him to bring a team of people. Come escort some people.
…
Two days passed in a flash. Liu Mang wanted to marry Sun Shangxiang as his concubine. Logically, he should go to Sun's family to offer a dowry to propose marriage. After Sun's family agreed, he could make an engagement and then pick up the marriage. However, it was for political purposes as well as for other purposes. So many processes are omitted.
In Liu Mang's banquet, Yangzhou Wenwu was the main force. The situation ahead has stabilized. Except for the absence of father-in-law Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Chen Gong and others all came.
It's a good thing that Lu Bu doesn't come, and Liu Wei is also guilty. After all, this Yangzhou started slowly with the old man's capital. You got someone's daughter and got his family's business. Now that you are prosperous, you can marry the third and fourth, the old man. No wonder it would be comfortable.
Liu Mang was afraid that if the old man got angry. Few people could stop him.
Liu Wei doesn't have any elders in this world, so Mrs. Yan took Liu Wei and Sun Shangxiang to see her in the high hall. They stayed and drank, these Yangzhou civil and military officials would not let Liu Mang go, in the temple Liu Mang is the lord and they are subordinates, but there is no distinction between high and low at the wine table. Toasts and cups were staggered in the front yard.
And in the backyard, it was naturally extremely lively, all Liu Mang's women were also sipping fine wine on the dining table. Chatting oh my god.
"Mother, why are you here alone? Father!" Miss Lu asked her mother suspiciously. She sent out invitations to invite her father.
"Your father, there must be someone in the Lujiang River. Chen Gongtai has stood by for a long time, let him come out and relax. Besides, if your father comes, how can this reckless wedding be handled properly?" Mrs. Yan said to said his daughter.
Miss Lu nodded, that's true, according to her father's fiery temper, Liu Mang would definitely go back lying down today.
"Ling'er, tell mother, how is the bed between you husband and wife?" Mrs. Yan suddenly asked Miss Lu this question.
"Ah!" Miss Lu was taken aback for a moment, and then her face turned red, "Mother, why are you talking so politely?"
"Mother, this is for your sake. What mother means is, is there any movement in your stomach?" Mrs. Yan, who has been here, can naturally let go.
"This stomach!" Miss Lu's eyes were a bit dim. These days, Liu Mang stayed in Miss Lu's room for a long time, but there was no movement.
"Hey, no wonder!" Madam Yan sighed bitterly and shook her head.
"What's wrong with mother?" Miss Lu asked suspiciously.
"Ling'er, I'm pregnant with you for my mother. Your father was just a little prince of the capital. At that time, he was worried all day in Bingzhou. Karasuma Xianbei, these foreigners came out endlessly. Your father always Every time they went out, three or two people came back, and there was blood all over their bodies. Once, I, a big man, miscalculated the information and let that Karasuma approach the city." Madam Yan said to Miss Lu, luck Later, Miss Lu was born prematurely, and foreigners entered Seoul to burn, kill and loot, Mrs. Yan was pregnant with Liujia and took Miss Lu bumping and wandering on the road, and gave birth prematurely. At that time, there was no nutrition, so Miss Lu was born with some flaws , which will affect the survival of future offspring.
"Ah!"
"Fortunately, I met a miraculous doctor for my mother, and I asked for this prescription for you from the miraculous doctor. As long as you respect this prescription and take medicine to nourish yourself, you will surely succeed if you have more intercourse," Mrs. Yan said to her daughter.
Miss Lu took the prescription from Mrs. Yan's hand. This is not just a prescription, but also several pictures. Seeing this picture, Miss Lu's face turned red again, because this is not an ordinary landscape painting Ah, but a few pictures of poses, Miss Lu's face is even more rosy, and she has to follow the above poses if she wants to take medicine.
Miss Lu's face was flushed, and there were a few around her who were also ruddy, because when Mrs. Yan was talking, they were also listening. They didn't need to take medicine tonic like Miss Lu, but, that picture They can use the posture above.
Miss Lu asked her servants to prepare a room for her mother, and the picture in his hand was taken by Qiao Yu next to her.
"Sister!" Miss Lu was a little flustered, "This, this picture!"
"Okay, sisters and sisters all know that this picture is a picture of begging for a child." Qiao Yu said to Miss Lu with a smile, and Madam Yan did not avoid them when she explained to Miss Lu.
Qiao Yu also blushed when she saw the little person in the picture.
"Ling'er, even though we let him marry Sister Xiang'er, we can't spare him like this!"
"Sister, what do you mean?"
"Call Qian Yu and Sister Fang together."
The banquet in the front yard was finally coming to an end. Although Liu Mang was given a lot of wine by these subordinates, Liu Mang was trained by modern liquor, so he could still hold on. These ancient drinks are equivalent to Beer.
With a shake, Liu Mang returned to the backyard with the help of his personal guards.
Today is his big day, Liu Mang couldn't help laughing, although there are several beautiful girls in the family, but Sun Shangxiang also has Sun Shangxiang's beauty, right? I must have a good training at night.
Sun Shangxiang likes to take the initiative, the more he can arouse Liu Mang's interest.
Liu Mang opened the door, and walked in with a smile, "Lady, lady!" He saw Sun Shangxiang sitting beside the bed in a red dress and a red hijab.
"My lady, I'm here for my husband, and I'll lift up the hijab for you!" Under the candlelight, Sun Shangxiang's face was so charming that Liu Mang couldn't help but kiss him.
"My lady, let's go to bed!" Liu Mang blew out the lamp, and put Sun Shangxiang on the bed amidst her shyness.
"En?" As soon as he got into bed, Liu Mang realized that something was wrong, "My lady, why did you take off so quickly." The red dress on Sun Shangxiang's body has not been removed yet. But Liu Wei doesn't care anymore, it's better if you take it off quickly, and it will be convenient to do things quickly.
Liu Mang was about to hug this beauty, but when he stretched out his hand, he suddenly found out, hey, this side is also soft, and this side is also soft, big, small, and medium.
This feeling, Yuer, Linger, Fanger Qianyu? Liu Mang's eyes widened. With the help of the moonlight, Liu Mang's wine also sobered up a little. Sure enough, five people including Sun Shangxiang were there under the bed.
"This, this, this!" Liu Mang had a bad feeling. He even had the urge to run away, and before he could turn around, he was grabbed by a pair of jade hands behind him, "Husband, don't you want it, come on!"
Immediately, Liu Mang was overwhelmed.
"Help, help!" The tragedy cannot be expressed in words. (to be continued..)
