But now, just by taking her into his house, he has already made her happy like this. This evil feudalism is really... wonderful.

Ahem, I don't like beauty, I just like to promote traditional culture.

However, although she is called a concubine, compared with the outside, there is an essential difference.

In the mansions of many princes and nobles, concubines are just playthings that can be used to entertain guests and gifts to outsiders, and are not considered wives.

But in Bai Su's eyes, there is no difference between this wife and concubine, both are his wings.

Da Qiao also knew his master's character, so he was overjoyed.

It took her a long time to get up from Bai Su's arms, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, it's the servant who made the mistake of blaming the master."

Bai Su said helplessly: "It's good to know, you have been with the master for so long, don't you still know my character?"

"I know, the master is a good man, he loves me the most..."

Da Qiao Yingying smiled, and said in a gentle tone: "Wife and concubine are fine, as long as you can have the master's words, the servant is satisfied. Compared with being the master's wife and concubine, the slave is more willing to be the master's maid for the rest of his life, serving around."

Bai Su was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect her to refuse.

Under the dim candlelight, the girl's innocent smile was very charming.

She smiled and said: "As long as the master doesn't drive me away, no matter how others scold me or beat me, the servants will never leave the master's side, and will follow the master for the rest of their lives."

Bai Su looked at the serious girl in front of him, and while being moved, he couldn't laugh or cry: "What nonsense are you talking about, with my master here, who in the world would dare to bully you?"

Da Qiao touched her cherry lips lightly with her fingers, tilted her head and said, "But I read some novels in the market, that's what they say, such as watching movies through flowers, spring dreams in brothels, and secret books of mandarin ducks, the little maids in them are often bullied, bullied I'm so old..."

Bai Su's eyelids trembled.

It should be said that food and sex are also good, old color batches are the primary productive forces.

With the maturity of bookstores and printing technology, coupled with the popularization of private schools and imperial examinations for several years, the literacy rate has greatly improved, and now a large number of bookstores have emerged among the people.

Although the quality of most of these bookstores is worrying, in terms of books and content, they are far inferior to the official ones, but these folk bookstores have a huge advantage.

That is to dare to write anything, from folk myths and legends, popular books about grotesque ghosts, to little pornographic books, everything that one expects to find.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "You little girl, what are you doing watching those things?"

Da Qiao pursed her lips lightly, with a blush on her fair cheeks, and said in a low voice: "Because... as the master's maid, it is my duty to serve the master well. I heard that reading these books can help me learn how to serve you better. Man, this servant was worried that the master would not want me anymore, so I bought a few books and learned a bit..."

Bai Su pinched the girl's cheek, and said helplessly, "You don't need to learn those messy things at all, master, I will never abandon you."

"Um……"

Da Qiao nodded and smiled.

After Bai Su comforted the girl again, he couldn't help coughing twice, and asked, "Then... that, have you really learned it?"

"Learned a little..."

Da Qiao's fair and pretty face was flushed with blush, she raised the hair between her eyebrows with her small hands, and under Bai Su's blank gaze, she slowly sank into the water and bent down.

"hiss……"

Bai Su sucked in a breath of cold air, looked up at the night outside the window, and couldn't help sighing: "There are people in Beijing who are good at speaking, so the king doesn't go to court early."

Chapter 270 Four: The Calm Before the Storm

Jiangdong.

A mountain villa located in the vast Taihu Lake, surrounded by surging waves and pleasant scenery.

This is a stronghold of Xiang Liang, and it is also where the current king of Chu, Mi Xiong Xin, and others are located.

Xiang Liang was born in a prominent family. Even though Chu State has been destroyed now, as the daughter of Chu State General Xiang Yan, she still has a pivotal influence in the Jiangdong area.

On weekdays, he concealed his identity and set up an intelligence point here under the guise of being a trader, attracting a large number of people from the rivers and lakes.

After all, if you want to achieve a great cause, you need talents, money, these things are essential.

Today is a special day, and it is rare for Taihu Villa to thank guests behind closed doors.

Just because there are distinguished guests coming.

I saw a small boat slowly approaching, and in the Taihu Mountain Villa, a girl with a long sword hanging from her waist was standing at the ferry to greet her. She was dressed in red and looked heroic.

It was Xiang Liang's niece, Xiang Zhuang.

"Are you the guests of His Royal Highness Xiong Xin?"

"Exactly, I am Wei Bao, the queen of the former King Wei, who was invited by His Royal Highness Xiong Xin."

A woman in a blue dress came out of the cabin, took out a jade tablet from her sleeve and threw it over.

"It turned out to be His Royal Highness of the Kingdom of Wei..."

Xiang Zhuang checked the jade badge, and when she saw that there was no problem, she bowed her hands politely. At the same time, she looked a little curious, and glanced at the pale woman in white lying on the edge of the cabin: "This is..."

"Oh, her, her name is Han Wangxin, she is the former queen of Han, she usually walks by water, and she is a little seasick along the way..."

"What, her name is Han Xin?"

There was a look of surprise in Xiang Zhuang's almond eyes.

Wei Bao was stunned for a moment, and asked with some doubts: "Why, is it strange?"

Xiang Zhuang shook his head slightly, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that my cousin Xiang Yu saw a butcher bullying a thin girl on the street two days ago, letting her slip through her crotch."

"My cousin couldn't see it, so she helped the butcher and taught the butcher a lesson, and took the girl back as a younger brother."

"That girl's name happens to be Han Xin, which is exactly the same as His Highness's name."

Wei Bao and Han Wangxin, who was covering his mouth and feeling seasick, looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing, "I didn't expect such a coincidence to happen in the world."

Xiang Zhuang smiled, and did not explain too much: "Everyone, please come with me, His Highness Xiong Xin, and Auntie, have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Then I will trouble you to lead the way."

Wei Bao and Han Wangxin set foot on the shore, followed behind Xiang Zhuang, and walked towards the villa along the mountain trail.

......

......

in the hall.

I saw a petite girl, less than 1.4 meters tall, sitting on the main seat. She was resting her chin on her hands, looking at the scenery outside the window with her bright black eyes, and her two short legs in boots were hanging in the air, constantly dangling.

She pouted her lips and muttered softly: "I feel that being the king is so boring, it's more interesting to herd sheep before."

She blinked her eyes, slightly distracted.

Obviously I don't have much interest in restoring the country, I just want to live a simple life.

But no matter if it was Lu Zhu or Xiang Liang, she would always talk about what to do as a king, which made her feel very tired.

"Your Majesty, as the grandson of King Huai of Chu, you shoulder the heavy responsibility of restoring the state of Chu. How can you say such a thing? Have you forgotten the responsibility of Chu's death? When Xia Jun broke through, did the blood flow like a river..."

As Mi Xiongxin's personal maid, Lu Zhu couldn't help but frown her slender eyebrows when she saw her king say such childish words, and couldn't help scolding.

Mi Xiong pouted aggrievedly, and said in a low voice: "I was wrong, I won't talk nonsense anymore, don't be angry, okay?"

"you……"

Gritting her green pearls and silver teeth tightly, her icy pretty face showed a look of hatred for iron.

"Haha, Luzhu, you don't need to be angry. The king is talented and intelligent, but she is still young. After a few years of experience, she will be sensible..."

The one who spoke was a gorgeous young woman in a red dress.

Holding a cup of hot tea, she sat gracefully aside, with a big smile on her face.

It is the owner of this Taihu Mountain Villa and the right-hand man under Mi Xiongxin's command.

While everyone was talking, Xiang Zhuang opened the door and walked in: "Aunt, Your Majesty, Wei Bao, and Han Wangxin are here, just outside the gate of the mansion."

"Quickly, go and invite the distinguished guests in..."

Xiang Zhuang bowed his hands and withdrew.

After a while, two women dressed in green and white stepped on the door and walked in.

"Yes, Mr. Xiang Liang, Your Highness Xiong Xin..."

The two bowed their hands together.

Mi Xiongxin moved her little butt on the stool, adjusted a dignified sitting posture, and waved her little hand lightly: "You two don't need to be polite, please sit down quickly."

The maid at the door quickly came in and poured tea and water for the two of them.

Wei Bao lifted up his skirt, sat on the seat, glanced at the hall curiously, and asked, "Is General Xiang not there? I heard that when General Xiang was young, he could lift a gigantic cauldron with one hand, and he has a thousand catties. Husband's undeserved courage, I wanted to go up to get acquainted today, but it seems that I am not there."

Xiang Liang pursed his lips and smiled: "Yu'er is not very interested in the alliance, and she is currently going to the horse market to pick out good horses. If His Highness wants to meet you, if there is a chance in the future, I will do it for you. Please recommend me."

"That would be wonderful."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Wei Bao asked, "I don't know why Mr. Xiang Liang called me here today."

After pondering for a moment, Xiang Liang said, "Naturally, we form an alliance to overthrow Great Xia and restore the Six Kingdoms..."

As her voice fell, the entire hall suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Wei Bao and Han Wangxin looked at each other, and a strange look suddenly appeared on his face.

A hint of doubt flashed across Xiang Liang's autumn-like eyes, and he couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, you two? Could it be that you don't want to form an alliance?"

Wei Bao smiled wryly, and said, "It's not that we don't want to form an alliance, it's because the First Emperor is really difficult to deal with, or it's not so much the First Emperor, but her right-hand man, which is too difficult to deal with."

"What do you mean by that?" Xiang Liang was a little puzzled.

"To tell the truth, sir, Xianyang's Bingfeng is growing stronger and stronger, and it is invincible from the front. If you want to shake its foundation, you can only rely on the right time and place."

"Just a few months ago, smallpox broke out suddenly in Han, and the people were panicked. We planned to use this opportunity to hoard food, grass, and medicinal materials to create panic."

"Supporting the quack warlocks secretly to gather believers, everything went smoothly. It only takes a few more months to plunge the entire north into chaos. It is not impossible to gather hundreds of thousands or millions of people."

"However, the first emperor sent Daliang Zao to treat smallpox. In less than a few months, smallpox was cured, prices were stabilized, and our party members, as well as local businessmen, squires, and charlatans were all arrested. gone."

"Either he was arrested and sent to practice official career, or he was exiled to a wild land."

"This natural disaster has nothing to do with the First Emperor. Now it's only in our hands, with such a small number of people, how can we challenge the First Emperor?"

Thinking of this sad incident, the two of them had wry smiles on their faces.

Xiang Liang's vermilion lips curled up slightly, and he said, "You two don't need to be disheartened. As the saying goes, you can't be blessed if you lose your horse. It's precisely because the First Emperor pressed on every step of the way, and it gave me a chance to fight back. Chance."

The two looked stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Wei Bao couldn't help but asked, "What does Mr. mean..."

Xiang Liang took a sip of his tea and said with a smile, "The Daliang Zao in Xianyang is indeed a talent. In troubled times, he used heavy codes to control the chaotic situation in a short period of time, but there is a price for doing so."

"The dignitaries in the world, the country gentry, are seeing that the laws of the imperial court have become more and more stringent with the establishment of Xianyang's official roads. Whoever dares to violate them will be captured by the officers and soldiers like a pig and beheaded for public display. At this time They were all terrified."

"One after another made friends with us in secret. As long as we can guarantee their current interests, when we revolt, they will give full support from the rear to help us overthrow Great Xia together and restore the old enfeoffment era of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms."

"At present, relying on their support, we have obtained sufficient money and food, and... as early as many years ago, our Highness used the name of sugar cane to win over warlocks everywhere, and captured a large number of natives in South Vietnam. Sugarcane, smelting iron, casting weapons."

"Nowadays, a large force has been gathered, enough to compete with Xianyang for a while..."

After hearing Xiang Liang's words, Wei Bao's eyes lit up.

She never expected that Xiang Liang would actually establish a small kingdom outside of the Central Plains, quietly gathering a powerful force.

Even, there are special weapons and food, and with this stable rear, the uprising is more assured.

But after being happy for a moment, her face quickly turned down, and she said with a wry smile: "Mr. Xiang Liang, you have a county as your foundation, which is indeed beyond our expectations, but you want to rely on this little property , just confront Xianyang, I'm afraid there is a chance of winning."

After all, the reason why they are safe and sound now is because they made small troubles and hid in every corner of the Central Plains, so that Emperor Shi Huang could not find any clues.

But once they gather all their strength and contacts, they will be exposed all at once.

There is really no chance of winning against the first emperor who has an army of millions.

Xiang Liang Yingying smiled: "You don't need to worry, the first emperor's army of one million seems to be huge, but the number of troops that can be mobilized is limited. The Beiting Protectorate Meng Tian leads 30 troops, and the Great Wall Corps is stationed outside the Great Wall and cannot be mobilized."

"The 50 Southern Expedition Army led by Zhao Tuo was stationed in Baiyue and could not retreat. Liaodong, the Western Regions, and the huge territory of the Central Plains have already dispersed the Qin Emperor's million-strong army to various places."

"Xianyang can mobilize no more than 30 troops. For us, it may not be impossible for us to fight."

"And we are not the only ones who want to overthrow Xianyang."

Both Wei Bao and Han Wangxin were stunned.
