Daily life of noble ladies of the Three Kingdoms

In the early winter season, the yard is another scene different from that in autumn.

At the beginning of the construction of the palace, Chen Xing installed earth dragons in each house according to Si Qi's idea, and Si Qi felt the comfortable warmth in the house when he woke up.

After the morning exercise, it was time for breakfast. Si Qi first drank a glass of honey water, and paired it with porridge, freshly baked apple pie and grilled fish slices, feeling much brighter.

After eating the food, Si Qi turned his head to look out the window, and saw a layer of hoarfrost on the stone steps outside and in the courtyard, which was a bit more bleak than in autumn.

If you only look at the scene in the courtyard, it is inevitable that it is deserted, but at this moment, the morning sun slowly rises from the east, but it looks extraordinarily warm and healing.

Looking at the rising sun, Siqi suddenly became interested in poetry, ordered people to prepare paper and pens, and picked up the pens to compose a poem.

Siqi's inspiration came intermittently, and as soon as he wrote two lines of poems, he heard Ayu come to report, and the prime minister sent someone to come.

Si Qi reluctantly put down his pen.

Whenever she has the interest to write poetry, she will always happen to be disturbed by some things, and eventually the inspiration disappears, and the poem does not become a poem.

Therefore, she has been unsuccessful in composing poetry, and she has not been able to become a great writer like Cao Zhi. It is not just a personal problem, but the general environment is not friendly to her who is willing to create.

The cavalry Cao Cao sent this time was brought by Zhang Liao, not only the cavalry and generals sent to help out, but also a letter from Cao Cao.

Cao Cao wrote in the letter that he was very relieved to hear that we, Ah Ying, were going to lead troops to open up the imperial court.

I remember that in the past, only Sun Zhongmou had the ability to go outside and capture islands as his own territory, but now Ah Ying can do it too, which is really a gratifying thing.

Listening to the meaning of Cao Cao's letter, talking about this matter is as simple as picking something out of a bag, as if he has successfully obtained the island.

Si Qi couldn't help but smile.

I feel that I am not as confident as Cao Cao in Chengzhou's navy.

At the end of the letter, Cao Cao mentioned that this time Hanzhong was collected smoothly, and Zhang Lu surrendered very happily.

Now Jiangbei is very peaceful and there is no war, so he asked Zhang Liao to lead a team of cavalry, hoping to help Siqi when he landed on the island to fight.

According to Boss Cao's character, being able to do this is considered extremely considerate.

Siqi was grateful and wrote a thank you letter very sincerely.

In the following time, the bosses sent generous gifts one after another as if they had made an appointment.

In just ten days, Si Qi received Liu Xie's grain and Sun Quan's fleet.

There were many twists and turns in sending the letter to Liu Bei in Jingzhou, and Liu Bei would receive the letter later than others.

Si Qi couldn't help but began to look forward to what Liu Bei's reply would look like, and whether there would be any surprises.

After a while, Jingzhou finally got news.

After seeing the person who sent the letter back and forth, Si Qi realized that Liu Bei really gave her and Father a big surprise.

It's Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying.

Si Qi originally agreed with Liu Yun that he would go with the ship this time to land on the island and fight, while Liu Yun would stay in Chengping.

After all, there are old and young in today's family, so it's okay for her to fall alone. If the head of the family, Liu Yun, also has an accident, who will come to take care of the grandmother, brothers, sisters-in-law and nephews in the family?

Liu Yun was originally persuaded by Si Qi and the lobbyists she invited, but now that Zhuge Liang came, Liu Yun once again ignited the enthusiasm to go to sea with the navy.

At this time, Siqi found that after Mr. Zhuge appeared, he could no longer suppress Father.

Newcomers Zhuge Liang and Zhang Liao were added to the team. In order to make them more adapt to the marching and combat style of the Chengping Navy, they were taken to the Yuyang Navy Training Base for inspection and participation in exercises in advance.

After boarding the battleship, Si Qi discovered that Liu Yun was suffering from severe seasickness and almost vomited from boarding to disembarking.

But even so, Liu Yun never said a word of discouragement, never retreated, and was still active in the front line of training, just to go to sea to fight with Mr. Zhuge who was in his heart.

Si Qi originally thought that Liu Yun would not be able to hold on by herself first, but what she didn't expect was that the symptoms of the other party's vomiting were relieved a lot day by day. If this trend continues, it is very likely that when they go to sea, they should be able to fight like other soldiers. The same standing on the boat.

The most important thing about going out is auspiciousness.This matter is related to the lives of thousands of soldiers, and Si Qi attaches great importance to it. Based on the principle of preferring to believe what is true, he wants to find a more auspicious day and time to set off.

It is now the end of the winter month, and the Chinese New Year will be one month away. Si Qi thinks it is better to wait until the spring of the new year is warmer before taking action.

Everyone agrees.

Regarding the matter of setting a date, everyone has different voices.

Zhou Buyi suggested that Mr. Xu in the city should be consulted on this matter.

This Mr. Xu was the family that Liu Yun took him to make a fortune-telling in order to persuade him to stay. It was also after this gentleman's fortune-telling that Zhou Buyi made up his mind to stay.

In the days to come, when Zhou Busu encountered something hesitant and clueless, he would go to Mr. Xu again for a divination. The accuracy rate of things that are ranked and calculated are quite amazing.

Liu Yun, on the other hand, believed in the authorities more, and believed that those certified by the imperial court and officially stamped were better than outsiders, so he wanted to ask someone to go to Xuchang with the problem and find Taichang in the court to do divination.

As soon as winter came, there were more refugees in the suburbs. Siqi took Guo Yi to the suburbs early this morning to arrange some matters about the resettlement of the refugees and the porridge, but he was not in the city.

Also because of Si Qi's absence, no one came out to make a final decision. Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others felt that these trivial matters were understandable. Liu Yun's ideas were not bad, and no conclusion was reached until the end of the meeting.

After the morning meeting was over, Liu Yun came out of the house with a sigh, and met his idol Mr. Zhuge head-on.

Since Zhuge Liang came to Chengping, Liu Yun was in a happy mood, walked with breeze, saw everyone with a smile on his face, and even ate more bowls than before.

Zhuge Liang always thought that Liu Yun was the optimistic person he saw, but he didn't expect that optimistic people would have troubles, and now Liu Yun looked very sad.

The relationship between the two has always been good, Zhuge Liang saw that his friend was in a gloomy mood, so he couldn't help asking one more question.

As soon as Liu Yun saw Zhuge Liang, he became energetic. They all said that Mr. Zhuge was very clever, he knew astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom, and he was not bad in these things.

Liu Yun told Zhuge Liang what had happened, leaned over and asked Zhuge Liang, "Sir, do you also count these things?"

Zhuge Liang:  …

He won't count!

In the blink of an eye, the twelfth lunar month of the 19th year of Jian'an has entered, and for Si Qi, she may be about to celebrate a prosperous new year.

Today's Chengping has Cai Wenji, Sun Shangxiang, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao and Huang Yueying.

However, the relationship between Zhen Mi and Cao Pi has become more and more cold recently. Cao Pi dislikes that Zhen Mi spends too much time on dressing up, regardless of his husband and children. Zhen Mi also feels that Cao Pi is moody and picky. He fell in love with Queen Guo, but turned around and made trouble for her. He was really not a good person.

Because of this, Zhen Shu had the opportunity to bring Zhen Mi and her two sons and daughters to Chengping in the name of visiting relatives, and planned to stay for a while.

This was even more unexpected for Si Qi.

On the day of Laba Festival, Si Qi ordered the kitchen to cook delicious Laba porridge, and invited all the young ladies to come over to celebrate the festival.

In his spare time, Si Qi also played many indoor chess and card games, but he was usually surrounded by counselors and generals, and was with a bunch of old men, so he never had a chance to have a good time.

Now there is a room full of beautiful young ladies, all of whom are smart and intelligent. Siqi served the wine and green plum wine from his collection, and invited everyone to play games together.

The ground dragon in the house was burning warmly. After eating, drinking and playing games for a while, it was inevitable that they felt hot.

Siqi happened to have a new set of spring shirts here, which he wanted to give to everyone to wear in the spring after the next year, but now they are just right for wearing.

Si Qi remembered that Zhou He had always been very talented in drawing. Seeing that everyone was having fun, he asked someone to come over and drew the game pictures of several girls one by one.

Si Qi still had military affairs to deal with, and seeing that everyone was having fun, he quietly retreated to the front study to read official documents.

Because of the holiday, the entire front yard is quiet today.

Si Qi came to the study and sat for a while, flipping through a few official documents, Guo Yi opened the door and walked in.

Si Qi saw that Guo Yi was wearing a cotton coat, and his face was a little red from the cold, so he got up and made him a bowl of hot tea: "It's very cold today, you are not at home to celebrate the festival with your husband, where did you go shopping? "

Guo Yi smiled at Si Qi: "Today, during the Laba Festival, I went to the suburbs and asked a few porridge sheds on the outskirts of the city to make a few pots of porridge that are more delicate than usual, so that the people in exile can have a good time. section."

"It's still your thoughtfulness." Si Qi praised Guo Yi greatly, and then asked people to serve the Laba porridge that he specially asked the kitchen to cook.

Guo Yi was happy in his heart, and eating the Laba porridge cooked by Siqi specially made it even sweeter in his heart.

Guo Yi talked with Si Qi for a while, then he left the study and went home to spend the holiday with his father.

Not long after Guo Yi left, Zhao Yun found him again.

Si Qi said to Zhao Yun: "I went to your residence early this morning to look for you, but unfortunately you were not there. I only found out after asking them that you went to Mr. Zhuge's place early in the morning."

Zhao Yundao: "My lord's annual gift has arrived, so I counted the presents with Mr. Zhuge, and now they have been handed over to the steward to help the Weng Lord store them in the warehouse. This is the list and the letter from the lord. Please take a look at it."

Si Qi was only a little surprised that Liu Bei's New Year's gift was delivered so early just after Laba.

Faced with Siqi's surprised expression, Zhao Yun explained: "My lord said that Jingzhou is far away from Chengping after all, so I sent it here earlier. If something happens on the way, the New Year's gift will be sent to Lord Weng after the New Year's Eve. , it’s really outrageous.”

Xu was affected by the previous letter receiving incident, Liu Bei was indeed a little extra cautious this time, and planned ahead early.

Speaking of this, Zhao Yun thought of something again, and took out two letters from his arms and handed them to Si Qi: "This is a letter from Mr. Pang and Mr. Fa to the Weng Lord. Mr. Zhuge asked me to bring it to the Weng Lord."

Si Qi said "ah".

It was reasonable for her to receive Pang Tong's letter. After all, she had saved Pang Tong's life by chance, and Pang Tong had always taken this matter very seriously.

But she doesn't have much friendship with Fazheng, and Fazheng has been particularly active in sending letters recently, almost as frequently as Liu Bei.

Thinking of this, Si Qi asked Zhao Yun: "Did the general and Mr. Zhuge also receive the letter from the two gentlemen?"

Zhao Yundao: "Mr. Zhuge and I have only received letters from the lord and Mr. Fa, but not from Mr. Pang."

In this way, Fazheng sent letters to her, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun.

Si Qi felt that he might have found the reason for Fazheng's frequent letters recently.

Maybe this is a born enthusiastic person.

Maybe today is a good day to meet people. After Zhao Yun left, Zhang Liao came to Si Qi's study again.

What Zhang Liao brought was news from Yecheng.

After Cao Cao learned that Siqi would not attack the Wa Kingdom until the next year, he tried his best to invite Siqi to Yecheng to celebrate the New Year.

She has known Cao Cao for so many years, and this is the first time Cao Cao invited her to celebrate the new year together.

Si Qi was puzzled, and didn't understand what Cao Cao's intention was.

"My lord's intention, I don't know too well, but I just heard a few words from the messenger." Zhang Liao handed Cao Cao's letter to Si Qi, "This is a letter from the prime minister to the Lord Weng. The messenger said, the prime minister Everything you want to say is in the letter, Lord Weng will know it at a glance."
