Whoever wins the crouching dragon wins the world

When the news of the victory over the Northern Man in Ping'an Han reached Luoyang, I was basking in the south of the city courtyard that Zhuge Zhan had just bought. The host, Zhuge Zhan, dared not speak out, and stood aside with a sad face and fanned me: "Mother, Your son has been struggling for so many years to buy this property, are you ashamed to steal it all with empty hands?"

"What's so embarrassing?" I said cheekily, "All your people are mine, so I can't live in your house?"

It's a joke, I have confiscated how much New Year's money from him since I was a child, which eye does he use to see it, I will be embarrassed?

"But, but you have so many houses, why do you have to come and rob me!" Zhuge Zhan lowered his head, pretending to be pitiful, "Isn't there a private property of yours half a street away? I remember that two years ago, in order to please you, Dad specially kidnapped the gardeners to renovate the garden, but you have only visited it once, and you haven’t even stayed there for one night!"

"What is kidnapping? Your father obviously invited everyone back by being a virtuous corporal. Was your Chinese taught by a riding and archery teacher?" Hearing Zhuge Zhan's words, I was in a bad mood, "That house Although it's good, but your mother, I just can't get interested in living here, I just fell in love with you and want to live here for a while, do you want to drive me out?"

"Hehe, how dare I, if I let daddy find out, I won't be able to kill me." Zhuge Zhan bit his lip, smiling, "It's a blessing for this house to be favored by mother, how long will mother stay here?" How long you stay here depends entirely on your mother's preference..."

Hmph, little boy, don't think I didn't see your heart bleeding, I can't deal with you yet!

According to the news report from the teahouse, some time ago, Zhuge Zhan fell in love with a prostitute in Zuihong Pavilion who was not selling herself, and spent a huge sum of 50 baht to redeem her body. — There are rumors in the market that the reason why Zhuge Zhan took the house even at the expense of offending Liu Xi was because it fell into the eyes of the top red prostitute.

Because it was related to the only general Tianzong in the history of the Han Dynasty who took office at the age of five, ordinary people who liked to gossip paid great attention to Zhuge Zhan's "first love".But as Zhuge Zhan's mother, I thought it was my utmost benevolence not to break his leg, and you want me to let him raise a house under my nose?The old lady is not dead yet!

I don't know how this child grows up. I can understand the half-grown boy's blood and vigor, but the princess's mansion has prepared three or four concubines for him to accompany him, and all of them are as beautiful as flowers. It can't be any worse to attract bees and butterflies outside.Originally, I planned to use my power to overwhelm the wife of a minister's family, to see if I could persuade her to marry her beautiful and talented daughter-in-law into the princess mansion, but Zhuge Zhan made a fuss, so I had no choice but to give up.

If a woman from a good family falls into the hands of Zhuge Zhan, if she can't give birth to true love, her life will be ruined. I can't help feeling that I can't bear it.If Zhuge Zhan has been such an asshole, then the princess mansion and in-laws are not married, but enmity.

Otherwise, let's look in the homes of low-level officials. It's not easy to control a lady with a powerful family...

In all fairness, if I had a daughter, I wouldn't worry about sending her to the princess mansion to ruin her!

Fortunately, although Zhuge Zhan is not a four-six, he still knows that he is stepping on the bottom line. Although his affair with the red prostitute was widely spread, at least he didn't bring the real person in front of me to challenge my fragile nerves.And from the perspective of me who has been his mother for more than ten years, Zhuge Zhan has never shown the mood of falling in love.

Therefore, as a mother, I would rather believe that there is something hidden in it.Knowing the son is like the mother, Zhuge Zhan is not the type who will rack his brains to please women. The old bustard of Zuihong Pavilion seized this once-in-a-hundred-year opportunity to climb the big tree of the Princess Mansion, wishing he could pack Zhuge Zhan into a daily life. The romantic man who lingers in the willow land, the two or three things that have to be said between the eldest son of Zhuge's family and the top red prostitute of Zuihong Pavilion are blown all over the north and south of Ping'an Han by the east wind of the scandal, making Zuihong Pavilion popular overnight.But that beautiful prostitute who was rumored to be more beautiful than Diao Chan seemed to have evaporated, not to mention seeing her true face, even traces were hard to find.

Recently, I have been busy with childbirth and confinement, and I have been negligent in managing the affairs of Luoyang City, so that it took two months to find out that the prostitute was placed in a Taoist temple ten miles away from Luoyang City. Its figure seems to be pregnant.

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's definitely not Zhuge Zhan's. Let the secret agents withdraw, lest Zhan'er find out and hurt the relationship between mother and child." It is one thing to have fun, but it is another thing to give birth to a bloodline.Although Zhuge Zhan is a bear, he is not stupid, and he would never deliberately have an illegitimate child at this age.With his character, even if Chunfeng accidentally killed someone once, he would probably give him a bowl of abortion medicine to settle the matter.

The well-known prostitute in Luoyang, either the child in his belly was precious enough to be used as a bargaining chip by Zhuge Zhan, or the friendship between the child's father and Zhuge Zhan was so good that Zhuge Zhan would willingly take the blame.Unlike most scholars in the Three Kingdoms who are obsessed with fame, Zhuge Zhan has regarded word of mouth as dung since he was a child. Because he doesn't like reading and loves to be mischievous, eight out of ten people in Luoyang can't help shaking their heads when they mention him. With his ordinary appearance and vindictive personality, if it weren't for the blessing of the Second Generation of Quan, the son of Princess Shengyang and Prime Minister Zhuge, he might not even be able to get invitations to most official banquets.

The parents of many of Zhuge Zhan's classmates told their children not to deal with the lawless General Tianzong, so as not to be misled.

"When Zhuge Zhan got into trouble, his mother and Lao Tzu would back him up. Our family is not that capable, so since we can't afford it, we had to hide away." This sentence, I accidentally heard from Cui Zhouping's wife heard about it, and after a few years, she learned the new from A Xiang's mouth again.The former didn't take me seriously when I was a wine girl in Nanyang, and later when I was exposed, I still put on the airs of a noblewoman from a family, and always treated me indifferently; There is contact, and recently she begged me to put her eldest son into the princess mansion as a errand, but she declined the position of Zhuge Zhan Shutong, and only asked her son to inherit his mother's career and be a name in one of my dowry wine shops Unknown waiter.

Although Ah Xiang's mother-in-law is committed to cultivating her grandson to be the most capable book boy around the prime minister's eldest son, Ah Xiang is not optimistic about Zhuge Zhan's development. Zhuge Zhan is too arrogant, so in the eyes of Ah Xiang who advocates a low-key life It is almost equal to a moving disaster, as cautious as she is, she will never allow her beloved son to circle around a cockroach.

As she said, if Zhuge Zhan gets into trouble, Kong Ming and I will definitely do our best to keep him safe, but we may not do our best for Zhuge Zhan's long-term follower.In feudal society, it is not uncommon to abandon a car to keep the handsome man. When the master does something wrong, it is often the servants around them who are blamed.

Although the waiter in the wine shop I married as a dowry has a low social status, he has no chance of being promoted to an official career through poetry and books compared to a book boy, but he wins in a steady and steady way. As long as he doesn't make mistakes, he can get a job as a shopkeeper by the age of 40. Many, is an affordable fertilizer.

But I am not without regrets.Although she didn't expect to wave her arms like other time-traveling girls, all the relatives and friends around her would swear to death, but Ah Xiang's refusal told me clearly that she didn't believe that I would spare no effort to take good care of her son.The friendship that we shared weal and woe in the wine shop has gradually changed with the passage of time. Due to the disparity in identities, even though Ah Xiang and I tried our best to maintain the friendship when we were young, the reality still made us drift apart.

From the day I regained my status as a princess, she can only look up to me and rely on me. Even if I want to save her from kneeling and worshiping me when she begs to see me, it will not change the fact that we are no longer equal.

If it were me, I probably wouldn't be willing to pin my son's future on the illusory friendship.

I have not lost contact with He Dacheng, the shopkeeper and his wife, but the Princess Mansion is heavily guarded, it is not easy for them to visit the door, and my eyes have no time to stay on the trivial things in the alley and market, so gradually I have nothing to say even if I write , I can only write a few polite greetings.

The relatives of the emperor, the three princes and the nine ministers are my current social circle.

"Mother, I heard that Liu Xi was captured alive by barbarians in the Northern Barbarian War. He peed his pants in the enemy camp and was severely scolded by his uncle." I feel good, and I am very keen to publicize the scandal of my cousin, "I didn't feel so ashamed when I was five years old and went to the battlefield. Liu Xizhen gave us Ping An Han a face."

The downright tone of voice.

I reminded him dissatisfied: "That's your cousin Xi, what Liu Xi is Liu Xi's, is Liu Xi also your name?" Put on a brotherly and respectful attitude, otherwise the admonisher who has nothing to do will take off his hat of being disrespectful to his elder brother, and even I, the censor who specializes in supervision, will not be able to blatantly cover up my son.

What's more, outsiders don't know, doesn't Zhuge Zhan still not know that Liu Xi was captured alive by the barbarians, and that his good brother Liu Mao deliberately smeared the fake news that he peed his pants in the enemy camp?To say that Liu Xi, Liu Yi, and Liu Mao are worthy of being brothers who grew up together since they were young, and they have perfected their fighting skills. The reason why Liu Xi was trapped in the enemy camp was entirely thanks to Liu Yi.However, Liu Yi's strength had finished tricking his stupid brother, turned around and fell into the trap carefully designed by Liu Mao, and almost took the scapegoat of treason.So according to my observation, among the three brothers, Liu Mao has the most hope of winning the heir apparent, but he is not so smart, because Liu Yi finally crawled out of the hole his younger brother dug for him, and even bit him back With one sip, he directly put the fact of brotherly killing each other on Liu Xi's case.

"Get out!" Liu Xi had just got Shi Yan, and was rushing back to Luoyang to cure his stubborn illness as soon as possible. He didn't even bother to deal with the confused accounts between the three nephews. The three brothers Xi, Liu Yi, and Liu Mao each played [-] big boards, and let them learn what it means to be a good brother and share blessings and difficulties together."

A light order caused the three Liu brothers to miss the celebration banquet after the big victory. Naturally, they also missed the meritorious deeds at the banquet.

Healing the world is the biggest cure, Liu Xi took Guo Jia and Shi Yan back to Luoyang, but left Kong Ming in the hinterland of the Xianbei people to deal with the aftermath, completely ignoring the mood of the poor little Zhuge Gu who hadn't even seen his father since he was born .

I went to Xingshi to inquire about my crimes: "You kissed Guo Jia all day long and I was tired of it, but you separated me from Kongming and couldn't see each other. You are really a good dog."

Liu Xi suggested without distraction: "If you miss Kong Ming, you can follow him to be stationed in Beiman, and I didn't stop you."

"Station?" I grasped the key words, thinking that I had heard it wrong, "Isn't it aftermath? Why did it become a garrison? Could it be that you still want him to stay in the barbarian land?" The aftermath is temporary, but the garrison Represents the separation in the foreseeable future, isn't this blatantly breaking up Kong Ming and me?

It's a pity that Liu Xi doesn't understand the difficulty of my long-distance relationship with Kong Ming: "It is not a one-day effort to educate the northern barbarians. I need Kong Ming to study a practical Sinicization policy locally. In the future, our Ping'an Han will not only rush out of Asia, but also To go to the world, with the cannons in red, it is not difficult to open up territories, but the difficulty is how to use the looted land and population for one's own use. Therefore, Kong Ming's work in Beiman is very important."

This is the first time I heard that Liu Xi still has such ambitions. Since ancient times, the Han people are satisfied as long as they dominate the Central Plains. Liu Xi wants to imitate Genghis Khan and extend the influence of Pingan Han to Europe, Africa and even farther. Let us husband and wife live apart for a long time, the emperor of Beiman is far away, if Kong Ming gets a wrong idea and cheats, where should I cry?"

"So I told you to pack up and go to Beiman to look for Kong Ming." Liu Xi said disapprovingly, "Don't worry, I will pay for your settlement, and I will build you a high-end princess mansion in Beiman. The wind is cool and dazzling."

"This is not a problem with the Princess Mansion!" I said angrily, "Beiman is such a backward place, and the locals have never even seen silk. I don't want to go all the way there to suffer." In the name of the people, Kong Ming and I cannot destroy Liu Xi's well-designed hegemony plan because of our own self-interest.Although apart from satisfying the obsession of "unifying the world" for patients with the second disease, I really can't think of what Liu Xi wants so many lands for.

"Does it have to be Kong Ming?" I stared hopefully at Liu Xi, only asking him to change his mind at the last minute.

But Liu Xi affirmed: "After careful discussions, the ministers of the DPRK and China all believe that Kong Ming is the best candidate to stay in the northern barbarians."

What about taking care of me for the rest of my life?Stabbed me when I didn't expect it, and my heart was bleeding.

I looked at Liu Xi's unbeaten expression with resentment, accusing.

Is there any trust between people?Is there any more!

Couldn't be more upset.
