Whoever wins the crouching dragon wins the world

When Liu Xi and I arrived at Qingxianfang, the night show hadn't started yet, and there were only a few maids setting tables and tuning the piano in the huge hall, which seemed very deserted.

I glanced at the two extra people beside me, poked Liu Xi and complained: "Chen Yue is a bodyguard, I can understand that you bring him, but why did you call Kong Ming?" Ge Fang is a brothel According to the elegant name, in addition to high-ranking officials and dignitaries, prostitutes and dancers, there are no good women at all.Let me dress up as a woman and go shopping with Kong Ming, thanks to Liu Xi who figured it out!

"He made a condition for me." Liu Xi had a ghost in his heart. He glanced at Kong Ming sullenly, and the other party responded with a bright smile that far exceeded the average level, and his tone became more depressed, "He said he would introduce Pang Tong to me. I know, I am thirsty for talents, and I can't refuse."

Fengchu Pangtong, who is as famous as Wolong Kongming... I was silent for a moment, and couldn't help but venomously said: "It's getting easier and easier for you to sell your sister."

Liu Xi was choked, and felt ashamed to face me. As soon as he entered the karaoke workshop, he went to gossip with the boss with an excuse, and took Kong Ming and Chen Yue away, leaving only Qiu Shuang to accompany me to the backyard to calm down his anger.

The name of the song workshop made people imagine. I thought that there must be countless beauties hidden in the backyard, and I was quite looking forward to it, but it turned out that there was not even a single figure.Seeing that I was not interested in the flowers and plants in the courtyard, Qiu Shuang took the opportunity to report: "My servant has already inquired about it. Recently, wars have been frequent and there are many displaced people. Therefore, the market has sufficient supplies. You can buy a smart girl for a thousand baht. There is a big market every ten days in Xiangyang City, there is a small market every day, and there are also human vendors who specialize in business. If the princess needs it, they can deliver it to your door at any time for selection."

When I left Xinye, I dismissed Chun Nuan and other three maids, and now there is only one Qiu Shuang left by my side, and I urgently need to recruit more people: "We don't have any businessmen we know well, and the girl recommended here doesn't know the background. The gain outweighs the loss. Why don’t you go to the market anonymously to buy it? Others don’t know that the princess mansion needs to employ people, so it’s safer.” I asked her to choose ten people to live in the mansion first, and then check their backgrounds and backgrounds while examining their abilities and temperaments, and finally choose the best among them. Select three people to stay.

This is the disadvantage of having no foundation.If the family is changed, only the children of the family can be tricky, and they will never fall into the predicament that no one can use.When I was in Xudu, I used to have a few maids who served me personally, but I was timid at the time, and I didn't dare to reveal my plan at will. I escaped from the palace without telling them.The world is cold and life is difficult. Although I was forced by the situation, I knew that these court ladies would undoubtedly die after I disappeared, but I still insisted on going my own way. It can be seen that I am also a selfish person in essence, but I am not forced into desperation many times.

I remember that at that time there was a court lady with lovely dimples on her cheeks, who would hum in a low voice Ban Jieyu's "Songs of Complaint" in her spare time: "The heart is cracked and pure, and it is as bright as frost and snow..."

My thoughts gradually drifted away, far away, I saw a woman walking and singing with a flower hoe on her back. In the twilight, she couldn't tell her face clearly, but her thin waist was not enough to hold, and the popular water-sleeved loose coat was loosely covering her body , and the whole person became more and more petite and moving.

That scene is a bit like sister Lin who buried flowers in the Dream of the Red Chamber.

Although this sister's eyebrows and eyes are not stunning, but tears are shining in her eyes, and I feel pity for her.She bowed gracefully and called herself Can Feng: "Today is the anniversary of my sister's death. She loves lotus the most in her life. She often refers to herself as white lotus, and it is a little girl who buried lotus as a sacrifice."

I don't know the ancient ways of offering sacrifices, but I just think her voice is as gentle as a warbler, and her words seem to echo around the bridge, and the lingering sound is unnoticeable.

This Remnant Wind should be the top card in the square, right?

When the night show opened and the guests were seated, I mentioned to Liu Xi about the chance encounter just now, and Kong Ming took the initiative to intervene: "The remnant wind sounds like the sound of nature, and he is good at singing "Qingping Diao" and "Song of a Beautiful Woman", and famous people in Jingxiang are vying for it. It's a pity that she lacks beauty, her appearance can only be regarded as above average, and she is far less famous than her sister Ruoshui in terms of beauty."

... who asked you?

However, Canfeng did not expect that Canfeng is Ruoshui's younger sister.

When modern people talk about the beauties of the Three Kingdoms, most of them regard Diao Chan, Er Qiao, and Zhen Mi as the outstanding ones, but this is not the case.Although Diao Chan and the others were beautiful, they were able to keep their names in future generations mainly because of political advantages.Diao Chan provoked the relationship between Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo, Jiang Dong Erqiao married the world-renowned Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and Zhen Mi dealt with Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and his son in folklore, and gave birth to the future Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui.The Three Kingdoms is a man's drama, and there are very few women embellished in it. It is rare that the names of these four women are well-known to the world, and countless good-for-nothing people add fuel to the story based on the good wish of "heroes match beauties", and gradually speculate about them. The appearance of sinking fish and falling geese, and closing the moon to shame the flowers.

The fact is that when the natives of the Three Kingdoms mentioned beauties, the first thing that came to mind was He Ji in Runan, Rosemary in Youzhou, Luo Zhi in Hanzhong, and Ruoshui in Xiangyang.

"It's a pity." I stared at the remnant wind caressing Yaoqin on the stage, trying to find traces of the beauty of the country from her ordinary face, "If Ruoshui is still alive, I can see the stunning beauty of the four beauties gone."

"It's just a rumor." Kong Ming smiled and explained, "Beauty in weak water is beautiful, but it may not be worthy of the name and reality. After she became famous, a man made a special trip for her. A set of pictures of beauties, or Sitting or lying down, crying or laughing, she is as quiet as a virgin, and moves like a rabbit, which arouses the hearts of countless men, and her reputation spreads."

"Then I should have a look at the pictures of beauties if I have the chance." Unfortunately, I don't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even the famous "Guangling San" and Lu Qi couldn't touch my artistic nerves. It's even more hopeless, but it's strange that Kong Ming knows the inside story so well, "Could it be that you know Ruoshui and her painter?"

Kong Ming smiled without saying a word, and led me to look at the door. I happened to see five men entering the door. There was a mighty general holding a big knife, there was an elegant literati in moon white, and there was a white-faced scholar with a jade flute hanging from his waist.Kong Ming's magnetic voice like an announcer brushed past his ears: "Guess, which one is Bole who has made Ruoshui?"

My eyes flicked across the faces of the five people one by one, and finally fell on the most handsome one.

"A woman's opinion!" Kong Ming laughed, "A painter only needs a pair of discerning eyes, so why should he look better than Song Yu himself?"

"Zhuge Liang will be punished with a three-month salary!" Liu Xi suddenly said, his face darkened like that of Duke Bao, bluffing us, "The crime is disrespect to the emperor! My lord is so big that you are here, and you ignore me. Do you think I'm dead?"

——Liu Xi has always believed that slaps in the face should be done as soon as possible, but today she swallowed her anger for Pang Tong, holding back until now, it is really difficult for her.Kong Ming had clearly figured out the character of the lord, and he didn't have the slightest intention of defending himself. He accepted the punishment decisively, went straight to the ugliest of the five, and said loudly, "Brother Shi Yuan, I haven't seen you for many years. , are you safe?"

Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan...

Afterwards, Liu Xi asked me how I felt when I saw Pang Tong for the first time, and I told him, "It feels like a two-legged hippopotamus is running towards you, with its nostrils upturned and its mouth as big as a bucket. It's so ugly and ugly."

Liu Xi felt the same way: "I used to read "Three Kingdoms", and I was quite aggrieved when I read that Liu Bei was not used more because of his ugly appearance, but now that I saw the real face, I suddenly understood that Liu Bei judges people by their appearance."

Liu Xi was originally a more experienced face control than Liu Bei!I laughed loudly: "He looks really sorry to the audience, but his talent has been certified by the authority of future historians, you have to cherish it, don't let him die in Luofengpo at the age of 36 like in history .”

Liu Xi gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, I will definitely let him stay away from that damned slope!" He did what he said, and made Pang Tong a government official. .Because Pang Tong had a history of passive sabotage when he was sent by Liu Bei to be a county magistrate, Liu Xi specially gave him some ideological education: "The war is imminent, and food and grass are the most important thing. I hope that you will not be wronged by being overqualified, and do your duty. Live up to your trust.”

Pang Tong immediately solemnly agreed to show his loyalty.

As Liu Xi said, the war is imminent, and the scouts sent back a secret report two days ago, saying that Cao Cao had mobilized an army of [-], and brought Jia Xu, Xu Chu and other advisers and generals to Xiangyang day and night.

I was shocked and turned pale: "It turned out to be Jia Xu?" Kong Ming had the loss of the street pavilion, Zhou Yu had the pain of Jingxiang, Sima Yi had the neglect of the upper valley, but Jia Xu has never seen a single loss in the three kingdoms for more than [-] years." It’s almost a no-brainer.”He has so many sergeants showing off his muscles, and there is an ambitious Cao Cao behind him. Even if I don't want others to destroy my prestige, I have to feel uneasy.

You know, there are only 3 defenders in Xiangyang at full count!

"Don't panic!" Unlike me, who is facing the enemy, Liu Xi sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, ordered four thousand elite soldiers extremely calmly, and threatened to go out of the city to meet Cao Cao in person.

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention me, even Kong Ming, Pang Tong and others were very surprised. They rushed to Liu Xi's tent and said, "Your Highness has a body of a thousand pieces of gold, why bother to risk yourself? What's more, with our army of four thousand soldiers and horses , How to resist Cao's army of [-] thieves?

Zhao Yun, Qian Chao and other generals also cupped their fists to persuade: "My lord, please think twice!"

Liu Xi was unmoved: "Cao's army has traveled a long distance, and the soldiers are exhausted, so there is nothing to fear. Only 2000 troops are enough to win. I doubled the number of soldiers and horses, and I have full confidence in my heart."

"Aren't you crazy?" I resisted the urge to hit him on the head: In a battle of 25, the opponent is still Cao Cao and Jia Xu. I'm afraid I don't know how he will die by then!Even online games don't bring such exaggeration.

Liu Xi's eye knife slashed at me fiercely, and I stared back without showing weakness. In the end, Kong Ming pulled my sleeve and forced me to avoid Liu Xi's sharp edge.

Kongming made a bow and said, "The lord seems to have a plan in his mind. Could it be that he has already decided on a countermeasure?"

Liu Xi's expression was a little pale, but his eyes bypassed Kong Ming, looked at the generals under his command and said: "You don't need to be anxious, just wait and see the changes, this king has his own clever plan."
