Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 558 Marrying Mrs. Baifang is no better than a sister

Yang Xiu hurriedly rode his horse to the outside of Yanque Tower.

Under the arrangement of Mrs. Cai's maidservant, she entered the room as she wished.

The Yanque Tower was lit with elegant incense, but Yang Xiu was extremely nervous. He looked around, but found that it was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Dare to ask this sister, I have heard that the Yanque Tower in Xiangyang is a place where literati recite poems, compose poems and congratulate poems, but... among them..."

Yang Xiu didn't finish his sentence, he stretched out his hand...but the meaning couldn't be more clear.

In this swallow house?How can there be any literati?
...and there is no poetry recitation, all you can see is a handsome young man and a beautiful woman who is over [-] years old and still has a charming charm.

They drank with each other and chatted...

From time to time, teasing movements came out, if a woman and a young man saw each other right, they would support each other and go upstairs.

Who knows what they're going to do!
Scenes were vividly displayed before Yang Xiu's eyes.

simply…

This Yanquelou is simply... It is a replica of the brothel and the red pavilion.

It's the women who come here to have fun, and it's the handsome men who laugh here.

Yang Xiu felt his world view was shattered...

"Cuckoo..."

Seeing Yang Xiu's surprise, Mrs. Cai's maid "giggled" and said: "The literati recite poems and congratulations with poetry and wine, that's just to deceive people's eyes and ears. Many young princes will be cautious when they come here for the first time, but... get used to it. Well, Mr. Yang might as well go shopping around to find a predestined wife."

"But...except for your wife, I don't know them..."

Yang Xiu replied.

The maid smiled. "If the young master knows these women, it will be troublesome. This place is a place to have fun and play on the spot. Between each other... don't ask names, don't ask about the past! Young master Yang might as well treat this place as a dream!"

Uh…

Now, Yang Xiu understands!
This is also different from the replica of the brothel, this is simply a paradise for handsome young men and beautiful women to indulge!
"Thank you sister..."

Yang Xiu cupped his hands, and the maid smiled and left.

call…

Yang Xiu exhaled deeply, expressing emotion from the bottom of his heart.

"Zhulong's information is correct... Mrs. Cai really knows how to play!"

...

...

Xu Capital City, Baimahou Mansion.

Lu Yu is writing some new policies.

It seems... After the Northern Territory was pacified, he had some new ideas, and he simply put these ideas into words!
The rare elder sister Cai Zhaoji polished it for him personally. Looking at her brother's handwriting, she seemed to have returned to the scene when she was teaching him the "Feibaishu" font when she was a child.

Cigarettes curl up indoors, infinitely quiet.

Suddenly there was a "bang", and the pen in Lu Yu's hand broke... This is very rare.

Cai Zhaoji showed a look of surprise.

Lu Yu smiled slightly.

"It seems that this new policy is not destined to be achieved overnight!"

Speaking of here…

Lu Yu stretched his waist, raised his head and looked at Cai Zhaoji. "Sister? Why are you free to come and accompany me today? Is Taixue on vacation?"

"Can't I come and chat with Brother Yu if I'm not on vacation?" Cai Zhaoji asked back, with a hint of resentment in her words.

This way... is like a little bitter woman who has been locked in the cold palace for many years.

"Sister? That's not what I meant." Lu Yu scratched his head and explained... It seemed that he always looked young in front of Cai Zhaoji.

certainly…

Inexplicably, Lu Yu sometimes thinks about that night...

Because of this, he has a lot of inexplicable affection for this sister in his heart!
It's just that this touch of affection, under the deliberate avoidance of sister Zhaoji, was buried time and time again.

"Okay, my sister has something serious to tell you!"

Cai Zhaoji's expression became serious...

"Business?" Lu Yu raised his eyes.

Cai Zhaoji's words came out one after another. "Sister asked for another wife for you! The emperor granted a special order, a third wife of the Marquis Mansion, this is the great honor of our Baima Marquis Mansion!"

what…

what…

Cai Zhaoji's words made Lu Yu almost stunned.

"Ma'am? Another lady?" Lu Yu spread his hands. "How can the well-behaved Marquis Mansion become the third wife? Whose family's daughter?"

Lu Yu was very curious...

Of course, he has actually seen through this kind of thing, and the big man pays attention to this kind of political marriage and the right marriage.

If someone breaks this kind of friendship between classes, it will often become the explosive news of this era.

such as…

Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru!

And often to break this class, what is needed is something special about a man or a woman.

It is still an example of Zhuo Wenjun and Sima Xiangru.

In their love story, one of the biggest prerequisites is that Sima Xiangru is handsome and attractive enough, which is similar to the audience masters in front of the mobile phone screen!

"Sister, don't you want to be a fool? Which family's girl is it?"

Lu Yu asked curiously...

"The princess of Xiliang, the descendant of General Fubo Ma Yuan, the daughter of Ma Teng——Ma Yunlu, is she considered the descendant of the general family? It seems... there is no descendant of the general family in our Baimahou!"

Cai Zhaoji said every word.

hiss…

It was Lu Yu, he exhaled.

—— Ma Yunlu!

Speaking of which, this name is not unfamiliar. In the old days... in the letters sent back by Zhong Yao, he also mentioned this female general outside the Great Wall many times.
Subconsciously, Lu Yu would think of the toughness of the Yongliang woman!

That's right, in Xiliang, which borders the Qiang people, Yongliang women are very tough... As for how tough they are?

When women in Xiliang farmed the land, they would carry a spear with them. When the gong sounded, the Qiang invaded. The women raised the spear and went to fight with the Qiang without dying!
Based on this culture, Ma Yunlu, the princess of Xiliang County.

Lu Yu pondered, if she came to Baimahou's mansion, wouldn't it be a mess!

Can…

Lu Yu raised his eyes. "Sister Zhaoji? Is this probably what your brother meant?"

"Does it matter whose meaning it is?" Cai Zhaoji blinked her eyes. "You don't want to be cheap and act good. Behind this Ma Yunlu are hundreds of thousands of Xiliang cavalry, and they are in the Guanzhong Plain. Marrying him will not do you any harm."

Don't look at Cai Zhaoji's ignorance of government affairs, but after this kind of marriage, the energy behind the woman is extremely transparent!
What's more...

Doesn't the marriage in the past explain the problem?
Only by marrying Princess Wannian can Brother Yu get the support of His Majesty and Han Chen;

Brother Yu married Xia Houjuan, so he could get the support of Qiao Peiwu people;

And Cai Yan herself, if it weren't for their sibling relationship, would the scholars in the north support the development of the newspaper, and would they let Brother Yu's offensive of public opinion sweep all directions?

Even Diaochan and Lingju;
It's Big Qiao, Little Qiao...Which one of the forces behind them didn't help Brother Yu?
In the end, no matter how many wives there are in a Marquis's House, it's all political needs!
In this regard, Cai Yan is extremely transparent!
"Why didn't you speak?"

"Sister Zhaoji said that? What else can I say?" Lu Yu spread his hands...

"Tell me what you think?"

Cai Zhaoji's question came out again, and Lu Yu smiled slightly. "What do you think? Just stand and watch... If you want me to tell you, marrying a lady with a hundred rooms is not as good as a sister!"

call…

With these words blurted, Cai Zhaoji's face flushed slightly.

She turned around, seeming a little shy. "When did Brother Yu learn to be so glib..."

"Hey..." Lu Yu smiled slightly, but didn't answer...

Cai Zhaoji, however, sensed the inexplicable ambiguous atmosphere in the air here, moved her lotus steps lightly, and quickly "fleeed" away...

Lu Yu would recall from time to time, how could she, Cai Zhaoji, not be throbbing because of that night's romance!

...

...

Jingzhou, Yanque Tower!
Smoke curls up, Yingying whispers, women and young people outline an extreme scene of "wine pool and meat forest", like a dream.

In this restaurant, a handsome young man like Yang Xiu naturally aroused the hearts of countless women.

Many times, it made Yang Xiu blush!

He went looking for Mrs. Cai, but...there are too many women, where is Mrs. Cai?god knows...

Just when Yang Xiu was at a loss.

He suddenly found an imperceptible note in the fruit plate in front of the woman's table. At the end of the note, there were two words - chicken ribs!
at once…

Yang Xiu raised the spirit of [-] points.

According to the request of the note, he used an excuse to go to the hut...

And at the rockery behind the hut in the courtyard, a big hand quickly dragged him in.

——"Candle Dragon! Why are you here?"

That's right... what Yang Xiu saw in front of him was Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong!
Zhao Yun looked around cautiously to make sure no one was paying attention, before speaking. "Zhuge Kongming entrusted me with a mission to collect evidence of Mrs. Cai's 'disobedience to women'..."

Ah... disobedient?
Yang Xiu was taken aback, but he quickly calmed down his throbbing mood. He seemed a little surprised, but it seemed...Under the circumstances, Mrs. Cai's behavior was so reasonable.

"Then? You have collected it!"

Yang Xiu asked back.

Zhao Yun nodded. "She's in the fourth room on the left on the third floor!"

"There is a ladder from the backyard that can lead to the third floor. You can find out where you are!"

Uh…

Yang Xiu's heart skipped a beat.

Zhao Yun patted his shoulder lightly. "I have already obtained some evidence that can prove it. When I return to Xinye this time, it will definitely be handed over to Kong Ming. He intends to use this...to lose the reputation of the Cai family and support Liu Qi to become the heir of Jiangdong!"

Speaking of here…

Zhao Yun paused. "These, together with what you will see next, must be reported to Commander Lu as soon as possible, so that he can be prepared!"

Although full of shock, Yang Xiu nodded solemnly.

Afterwards, the two separated for a long time, walked out from the rockery, and Yang Xiu walked around to the ladder in the backyard...

This place is extremely secretive, presumably Zhao Yun has stepped on and deployed it in advance.

Following the ladder, Yang Xiuxing reached the third floor...

Open the window paper, impressively...

"One, two, three...four...five..."

Yang Xiu's pupils were wide open...

Only at this moment did he know what it was - the expensive circle is really messed up!
His worldview is about to collapse at this moment!
...

...

Five days later, Xu Capital City, Baimahou Mansion.

An urgent letter was delivered to Lu Yu's desk...

When unfolding the letter paper, Lu Yu felt trembling all over. Is Mrs. Cai so "unrestrained"?

For a moment, he even thought of... crossing over to a well-known clubhouse in the former magic capital!

Who would have thought that this Mrs. State Shepherd of Jingzhou, a daughter of the wealthy and prominent Cai family!

She...she has such a lecherous side.

Thirty like a tiger...

Thirty like a tiger!
It's like... Liu Biao, who is over [-] years old, can't beat this tigress!

"call…"

Lu Yu let out a long breath and murmured in his heart:

—— "The noble circle in Jingzhou is really chaotic!"

Speaking of this, he raised his head impressively. "Lieutenant Dian? Where is the prime minister now?"

"In Tyrant Mansion!"

Dian Wei replied without thinking.

The Overlord's Mansion mentioned by Dian Wei here is an official office recently established by Cao Cao, with great power...

To put it simply, the so-called hegemony refers to Cao Cao's government-affiliated organization that takes himself as the core, replaces the officials of the court, and governs various military affairs in the territory.

Although the "Overlord's Mansion" was not established in the past, in essence, the Overlord's Mansion has always existed in Cao Ying.

This is because, according to common sense, the "General" and "Taiwei" are in charge of military affairs in the Han court. idle.

Taking ten thousand steps back, how could it be possible for Cao Cao to let the court dispatch his soldiers and horses to truly participate in military affairs?

Therefore…

Cao Cao set up the "Overlord's Mansion", and all important military affairs were decided by him in this Overlord's Mansion!
hiss…

I heard that Cao Cao was in Bafu.

Lu Yu added a question.

"The prime minister is discussing important matters with Zhu Wenwu?"

"No, the Prime Minister is alone in the Overlord's Mansion." Dian Wei replied.

"Then, lead me there!" Lu Yu's eyes tightened.

I got the information from Jingzhou sent by this "chicken rib".

Next, Jingxiang is surging with wind and clouds, and going south...is bound to be on the agenda!
...

...

When Lu Yu walked to the gate of Ba's Mansion, he saw all the warriors holding halberds in the corridor, the armor and the sharp edge of the halberds on their bodies gleamed coldly.

Lu Yu smiled slightly. Unexpectedly, since the school office, Lao Cao has established such a domineering mansion in charge of military affairs, such a majestic school lieutenant!

I wanted to enter, but I heard voices in it.

"Hebei is now in possession of thirteen prefectures in the world, and the prime minister alone occupies the land of eight prefectures. He should be the Duke of the state, set his capital in Yecheng, and establish a son early!"

this sound...

Lu Yu is no stranger, he is a few important ministers in Hebei.

"Please prime minister to establish the country as soon as possible, and establish a son as soon as possible!"

Another voice came out...

This is the echo of the other Hebei ministers.

hear here...

Cao Cao seemed to pause for a moment, his tone was cold and decisive. "Okay, okay, all of you are more impatient than me, let's all go down! We will discuss this matter later!"

A group of civil and military men from Hebei retreated, and when they saw Lu Yu, they were slightly surprised.

Xin Pi walked in front of Lu Yu and saluted first.

"I'm waiting to persuade the prime minister to go further, but it seems that the prime minister is not happy! Does Baimahou know the prime minister's deep meaning?"

Lu Yu rolled his eyes...

He knew, but he didn't want to say it. "All the celebrities in Hebei can't get a glimpse of the prime minister's intentions together. How can I get a glimpse of the prime minister's thoughts?"

"The Marquis of the White Horse is too modest." Xin Pi added...

At this moment, the Huben army at the gate also noticed Lu Yu, and said loudly, "The Prime Minister is looking for the White Horse Lord!"

Lu Yu glanced at everyone, and immediately walked into the Overlord's Mansion.

Seeing Cao Cao, he bowed.

"Lu Yu pays homage to the prime minister..."

"sit!"

Changing his indifference just now, Cao Cao motioned for Lu Yu to sit down.

On one table, two people knelt and sat on both sides.

"Ziyu, did you hear that just now?"

"The prime minister said, is it the Duke? Or is the capital Yecheng?" Lu Yu asked back...

These are two completely different concepts.

One is the Duke...

You know, the Duke of the state has a fief, similar to the princes and kings... And since the great ancestor Liu Bang, a strict rule has been set-no one with the surname of Liu is called the king, and everyone in the world will fight against it!

It is no exaggeration to say that if Cao Cao further becomes the Duke of the State, the authority of the Han court will fall to the bottom!
The imperial court of the Han Empire and the officials of the Han Empire will be even less valuable...

And the officials under Duke Cao Cao will be worth a hundred times!
certainly…

These Hebei celebrities are not only for this purpose!
Everyone knows that Cao Cao's achievements today are based on "holding the emperor to make the princes", the middle-level civil and military centered on "Yingchuan scholars" and "Qiaopei warriors", which is Lu Yu's exhaustive strategy Attacking the heart and threading the needle!
Among them, the reason why the Yingchuan gentry strongly supported Cao Cao was that the two parties had an unwritten agreement!
That is, the emperor must choose to be near Yingchuan.

This is in the best interests of the Yingchuan gentry!
This is also one of the important reasons why Xu Capital became the imperial capital!

And Hebei celebrities proposed to let Cao Cao enter the state and set his capital in Yecheng...

To a certain extent, this is to weaken the energy of the Yingchuan gentry and strengthen the cooperation between the Hebei clan and the Cao Group.

Care must be taken without fear or meticulousness...

That's why, when Xin Pi asked Lu Yu for advice just now, Lu Yu didn't speak up.

"What does Ziyu think?" Cao Cao raised his eyes. "Do you think I should become the Duke of the State, and whether I should make Yecheng the capital!"

hiss... this...

Lu Yu shook his head, noncommittal, this...he couldn't answer.

This matter is too sensitive, if he said that he was still in Xudu, he would offend the famous scholars in Hebei; if he said that the capital was in Yecheng, he would offend the Henan nobles headed by Yingchuan scholars!

This kind of problem of daughter-in-law and mother falling into the water at the same time... Lu Yu directly chose to avoid it!

"Prime Minister, how can I be sure about this kind of thing? There is a lot involved in it. The Prime Minister should think clearly and make his own decision!"

Speaking of here…

Lu Yu changed the topic.

"Come here today, Lu Yu has two things to report to the Prime Minister!"

"About going south to Jingzhou?" Cao Cao asked back...

It seemed that he had expected early on that during this period of time, Yu'er would definitely discuss this matter with him!

"That's right!" Lu Yu smiled slightly. "First, Lu Xun of my family has successfully become the governor of Jiangdong, and he has [-] soldiers in his hands. This number of soldiers and horses is even smaller than that of Sun Jian and Sun Ce's old troops together! It can be said that Jiangdong The situation is under control.”

"Okay..." Cao Cao raised his spirits, and unfolded the map in his hand...

His finger slid from the four states in the north to the four states in the Central Plains, and then down the river to Jiangdong. However, when his fingertip touched Jingzhou, his brows frowned slightly.

"If you want to take Jiangdong, take Jingzhou first! Ziyu, if you go south to Jingzhou, you must have a strategy in mind, right?"

this…

Lu Yu smiled slightly.

"There is no Taolue..."

"But...I have an important piece of information about the situation in Jingzhou! If the Prime Minister handles it properly, maybe...you can take Jingzhou into your pocket without bloodshed!"

Well…

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows. "I've heard that you established the 'Inter-Military Division' to take charge of intelligence collection!"

"I never thought that important information would come so soon!"

Cao Cao's eyes were narrowed, and he leaned forward, as if... looking forward to Lu Yu's next words.

"Tell me? What kind of information?"

This…

Lu Yu paused for a moment, then spoke immediately.

——"Prime Minister, do you know? What is multiplayer sports?"

...
