    Chapter 413: Remarriage, an old cow gnawing on young grass

    The warm sun of early spring had just emerged, and the light shone into the room. Zhen Yao couldn't help but frown.  He took out his left arm that was being pressed to block the sunlight, only to realize that his head was still heavy.  I haven't had a good drink in many years, so I was probably very drunk last night.

    Holding the beautiful figure in his arms, Zhen Yao found that she was pretending to sleep, and her slightly trembling body had betrayed her.  Subconsciously, he hugged Li Ying tightly in his arms, causing his family members to moan.

    "Huh?" Although Zhen Yao was not completely awake, he still noticed the difference in the person in his arms while holding her tightly, and the voice was not like Zhang Ying's.  But Zhen Yao turned around habitually, looked at each other, and stopped moving in an instant.

    The person being pinned under him was not Zhang Ying, Diao Chan, or Zhen Mi, but Mi Zhen.  Zhen Yao suddenly had a short circuit in his mind. Why was Mi Zhen in his room?  Still sleeping in the same bed with him?

    "Brother Zhen Yao." A soft call came out of Mi Zhen's moist lips, and Zhen Yao's soul was called back.  He quickly turned over and took his hands off Mi Zhen's tender back.

    "Well~~ I'm so tired~~ Let's sleep a little longer~~" It didn't matter that Zhen Yao turned over and leaned against another beauty. Xiao Qiao was seen arching Zhen Yao's thigh, mumbling with her little mouth.  He nodded and fell asleep again.

    "What's going on?" Zhen Yao's mind is blank now. Why did Mi Zhen and Qiao Wan appear on his bed?  Looking sideways, he saw two bodies lying horizontally on the bed. One of them was Diao Chan, and the other one was Da Qiao?

    "Brother Yao~" Mi Zhen spat out her sweet tongue, with a hint of slyness on her face: "Zhen'er, Zhen'er felt very comfortable last night."

    "Comfortable?" Zhen Yao felt helpless for a while. The scarlet flowers on the bed said everything. He turned to Mi Zhen and couldn't help but stretched out his right hand to touch the girl's cheek: "Tell me, who came up with this idea?"

    "It's Nujiala~~" I don't know when, Diao Chan also woke up. Compared with the other three who had just broken the melon, she was able to withstand Zhen Yao's attack, so she was not very sleepy.  Turning over and leaning against Zhen Yao's thigh, his fingertips slid across Zhen Yao's muscles, and he raised his head and said, "Are you dissatisfied, husband? Are you being pushed back by our sisters?"

    Diao Chan also learned the word "reverse push" from Zhen Yao. Otherwise, no matter what Diao Chan thought, according to the thinking of the Han Dynasty people, it would be impossible to come up with such a way to make Da Qiao and the other two girls succeed.

    "Nonsense!" Zhen Yao frowned. He was very drunk last night. He never thought that there would be a "thief" in his home. How should it end now?  He secretly rubbed his swollen and aching head with his left hand, not daring to look at the attractive bodies.

    "Zhen'er, please rub it for your brother." Mi Zhen said, and was about to get up, but her lower body had just cracked and the pain had not gone away. How could she, a weak woman, bear it?  He screamed softly, but was unable to get up.

    Zhen Yao lovingly caressed the little girl's cheek, which was frowning due to pain. Zhen Yao stared at her and asked, "Zhen'er, Yao has chosen a good time to propose marriage to your eldest brother, okay?"

    "Really?" Mi Zhen's eyes were bright, and her words revealed surprise.

    "How could it be false?" He shook his head. He, Zhen Yao, was not a person who would turn his back and disown him after eating everything. He probably knew what the little girl was thinking, but he was getting older, but he couldn't act like an old cow eating a young cow.  Grass thing.

    "I didn't expect that I despised Liu Bei the most in my previous life, but I did it myself in this life." I smiled bitterly in my heart, what difference is there between doing this and taking the big ears of the little girl from the Sun family who was over forty!

    Xiao Qiao is asleep, but Da Qiao has been pretending to be asleep. In fact, she should be the first one to wake up, but the current scene makes her dare not move at all.  After hearing Zhen Yao's promise to Mi Zhen, he couldn't help but ask himself: "What about me and my sister?"

    Seeming to be aware of what Da Qiao was thinking, Zhen Yao quickly continued: "Qiao Wan. Sister Qiao Ying, Yao will also send people to Qiao Mansion to propose marriage. However, this will still wrong you."

    "No, Zhen'er is very happy!" Mi Zhen quickly propped up her little head and leaned on Zhen Yao's palm, swaying in her palm, with a contented look on her face and a smile on her lips, obviously not pretending to be like this.

    When this happened, there was great excitement again in Wuji. Zhen Yao, who had just passed the year, would marry two sisters, Mi Zhen and Qiao, at the same time.  When they married Mi Zhen, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang didn't express much. Even if they were dissatisfied, it was because of their little sister. The girl was so ignorant of women's ethics that she sent them to bed before they got married.

    " However, the Mi family is not a traditional scholar family, and the two brothers only commented on Mi Zhen's behavior and congratulated their sister for finally getting her wish and being able to live with their lord for life.  Compared with the Mi family, the Qiao family was in much more trouble. When the young and old Qiao came home from Zhen's Mansion, they were almost kicked out of the house by old man Qiao, who had his legs broken.

    Fortunately, the ensuing emperor's decree saved some face for the Qiao family, and the fact that Qiao and Qiao spent the night at Zhen's house before they were married was also blocked by Zhen Yao, so there would be no rumors.??, it must be said that Mr. Qiao reluctantly agreed to this matter after his anger subsided.

    "Zhen Yao of the Han Dynasty was the first to use the emperor's decree to pick up girls and marry him, which directly led to disputes among later generations to follow suit.  One by one, they continued to study and make progress, and when they met the emperor, they did not seek official positions or wealth, but only sought appointments for beauties, which became countless legends.

    Suddenly three more women came into the house. Although Zhen Yao's yard was large, it was a little crowded.  After some discussion, everyone decided to move out of Zhen's Mansion. As it happened, Zhongshan Gong's Mansion had been built, and Zhen Yao was indeed not suitable to live in Zhen's Mansion anymore.

    He has lived with his son for decades. Now he has to be separated. Although it is not far from the ground, it is dozens of steps, but Zhang's heart is still uncomfortable.  At the end of the housewarming dinner, I shed tears.

    Since her mother felt uncomfortable, Zhen Yao could only let the beauties stay in the Zhongshan Palace first, while he and Zhen Mi still lived in the Zhen Palace for a while.

    After finally coaxing her mother to be happy, ten months have passed and Zhen Yao promised that the younger members of the family would come to the Zhen Mansion to accompany her every day, so that Zhen Yao could leave.  After coming out of Zhen's Mansion, they couldn't help but have a drink with their second brother Zhen Yan. After a while of reminiscing, the two brothers thought of the Zhen family decades ago. The life at that time was no worse than now, and they were more comfortable.

    "Lord, there is a secret report from Jingzhou that Liu Biao is dead." In the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion, Guo Jia whispered: "There is a lot of commotion among local wealthy families such as Cai Mao and Zhang Yun. It seems that they intend to appoint the youngest son Cong to succeed Liu Biao as the Prefectural Shepherd. And the eldest son Qi  , and also supported by the Kuai family and the Pang family."

    "Liu Biao can't hold on anymore?" Zhen Yao touched his chin. In his impression, Liu Biao seemed to be able to hold on for a few more years. Is he about to collapse?  But Zhen Yao didn't think much about it. Since it came from Jingzhou, it should be accurate news, and it was normal for Liu Biao's death date to be two years earlier or two years later.

    "My lord, apart from the fact that Huang Zu of Jiangxia intended to contact Liu Qi, none of them, including General Wenpin, made any move. Now, compared with Liu Cong, Liu Qi has a huge disparity in troops and horses. Cai Mao and others control almost 70% of Jingzhou's infantry, and the navy also  Fifty percent."

    "Where are the counties in Jingnan?" Zhen Yao frowned slightly and asked.

    Hearing Zhen Yao ask about Jingnan, Guo Jia was stunned, shook his head and said: "Jingnan is located in a remote area, and the people under its rule are not wealthy. Except for Changsha, which is guarded by the new general Huang Zhong, the other counties are incompetent and have made up their minds.  Wait until the two brothers decide the winner."

    Zhen Yao touched his head. It seemed that Jing Nan was really unpopular. As for Huang Zhong, Zhen Yao didn't think he could be that strong.  His own hands are younger than him and have great martial arts skills.  There are many people who are more strategic than him, but this old guy is still inferior to Lian Po.

    "Fengxiao and Wenhe, do you think we have a hand in it?" When Zhen Yao asked this, he thought of two things in the past. One was the plot to kill Liu Yu and cause Liu Bei and Gongsun to fight.  ; Second, killing Sun Ce made Jiangdong confused for a while.

    Both of these things were proposed by Guo Jia and completed. Although Zhen Yao was not ashamed of this method, he had to admit that if he wanted to gain an advantage in the next war, it was necessary to bury his son as early as possible.  .

    The two people who were named were both thinking secretly that Jingzhou is not as good as Jiangdong, and the Liu family and the Sun family cannot treat each other equally.  If you want to make a small move in Jingzhou, or even influence Jingzhou's successor, a simple assassination may not be possible.

    After a moment of silence, Jia Xu spoke first: "My lord, if possible, Xu thinks it would be most appropriate to kill the eldest son Qi." Although he did not mention a specific plan, he at least set a target for Zhen Yao, and Guo Jia obviously had the same idea as him.

    Zhen Yao naturally agreed with Jia Xu. Behind Liu Qi were the wise scholars of Jingzhou. These people were more difficult to control than the Cai family and the Zhang family. If he wanted to compete with Jingzhou in the future, he would inevitably conflict with them.

    Therefore, it would be a good idea to weaken their control over Jingzhou first.  Thinking of this purpose, it is absolutely impossible to let Liu Qi take the position. If Liu Qi takes the position, Cai Mao's means are simply not enough for Kuai Liang and the others.

    After thinking about this, Zhen Yao asked calmly: "What should we do?"

    Jia Xu and Guo Jia looked at each other, and it was the latter who spoke: "My lord, you can cooperate with Cai Hao this time and give him some support so that he can gain a foothold in Jingzhou. If you don't act like this, Cai Hao will not be unmoved."

    "Now I'll leave it to you two to handle it." Zhen Yao smiled with satisfaction. Jingzhou was not his main opponent, so he didn't need to arrange this arrangement himself. It was gratifying to succeed, but it didn't matter even if it failed. Now the big man  The trend of long-term separation cannot be stopped by others even if they want to.

    After Guo Jia received the order, they said goodbye and left, not knowing where to find a secret place to discuss the matter in Jingzhou.  As for Zhen Yao, he is even busier now, with more and more territory in his hands. Important matters from various places are reported every day and require his personal approval.

    "Tell your lord, the general is well aware of this matter. All he needs to do isJust keep your promise.  "More than half a month has passed, and spring has passed quietly. At Cai Mao's mansion in Xiangyang City, Jingzhou, General Cai waved his hand unceremoniously.

    Standing in front of Cai Hao was a man in tight black clothes. His face could not be seen clearly. After Cai Hao finished speaking, he held his hands for a moment, then turned and left. After a few jumps, he was completely missing from the surrounding area.

    As soon as the man in black left, Zhang Yun, who was standing below, frowned and said, "General, is this man cheating? Jizhou is thousands of miles away from here. Does Zhen Yao really want to help you and me?"

    "This matter cannot be false, Zhen Yao just wants me to fight within Jingzhou!" Who said Cai Mao has no brains? Although he cannot see Guo Jia's deep thoughts, the superficial things are still very clear: "Lend my hand to suppress  The Kuai family. The Ma family. The Pang family. Humph, I wish you well!" As he said this, Cai Mao also made an expression of "I understand everything."

    To say that Zhang Yun can only be a younger brother, his thinking is probably even worse than that of Cai Hao: "Then we still conspire with him?"

    "So what? If he is using me, I am using him!" Cai Hao snorted coldly and said, "As long as Liu Qi dies, my nephew Liu Chong will be able to ascend the throne smoothly. By then, the entire Jingzhou will be  Can Zhen Yao take away what belongs to our brother?"

    Zhang Yun quickly nodded and shouted: "Okay, as expected of a general, just do it!"

    Liu Qi didn¡¯t know that he had been tricked. At this moment, he was still taking good care of the territory his father gave him in Jiangling.  As the most prosperous place in Jingzhou with the highest grain production except Nanyang, Jiangling is no less important than Nanyang and Jiangxia, and Liu Biao's intention of sending his son here is very obvious.

    In Jiangling Mansion, Liu Qi faced a middle-aged scribe with a bitter face, and said helplessly: "It is rumored that my father is seriously ill, but I am not allowed to go to Xiangyang without an edict. Sir, what should Qi do?"

    "Xiangyang is not a safe place, and Zhou Mu has this intention in giving such an order." The middle-aged scribe shook his head slightly and said: "Zhou Mu has not been in good health in recent years. As winter goes and spring comes, cold and heat alternate, so naturally there will be some discomfort.  This is common sense.¡±

    ¡°Alas~~¡± Liu Qi sighed heavily, shook his head, and focused his attention on county and local government affairs again.  Spring plowing has become critical, and whether we can have a good harvest in autumn depends on now.

    A trace of worry flashed across the middle-aged scribe's brows. In fact, the situation in Xiangyang was not as simple as he said. The Cai family controlled the state's military affairs and became the de facto masters of Xiangyang. This was why he did not want Liu Qi to set foot in Xiangyang.  reason.

    Thinking that I have been wandering for half my life and finally achieved something in my studies in my thirties, but now there is no one worthy of my help.  The Liu Qi in front of me is only half of him. If it weren't for his people-friendly temperament, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to serve him.

    "Mr. Yuanzhi, sir" the middle-aged scribe's thoughts were wandering. Liu Qi next to him called him several times before he woke up from his memories.  However, with Liu Qi's soft call, the identity of this person was also revealed. Who else could it be besides Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi?

    "Master?" A trace of apology flashed across Xu Shu's face and he asked quickly.

    Liu Qi smiled nonchalantly and waved his hand: "The spring plowing has come to an end. Tomorrow Qi wants to go out for a tour to see the fields and farmers in Jiangling."

    "That's fine." Liu Qi's closeness to the people was probably his only advantage, and Xu Shu would not stop him. He nodded slowly and stood up to leave. In the evening, he had no intention of sitting in Liu Qi's house.

    The next day, Liu Qi took Xu Shu and a group of guards out of the city and wandered around the cultivated fields in various places. The farmers were also very familiar with Liu Qi. During one spring plowing, Liu Qi came to inspect several times.  When Liu Qi walked into the fields to talk to them and asked questions, he would always answer with a smile on his face.

    Liu Qi¡¯s physical fitness is actually not very good, which may be related to the well-fed life he grew up in.  Although it was a bit difficult for Liu Biaodan to ride into Jingzhou, Liu Qi has been living the life of a young master since then.  The whole day was filled with fine wine and delicious food, with birds singing and dancing, but my body was already exhausted.  He had only been out on patrol for half a day, and his face was a little rosy.

    This is what Xu Shu is most dissatisfied with. As a lord, he doesn¡¯t have to know how to fight or understand government affairs.  But one thing is that you must live a long life. If you don't live long, even if you build a foundation, you won't be able to keep it.

    But no matter how you look at it, Liu Qi is not a longevity minister. After following Liu Qi for nearly a year, Xu Shu tried his best to change this.  Let Liu Qi practice swordsmanship with him on weekdays, not only to kill enemies with a sword, but at least to exercise his body.

    "My lord, please come here today." Xu Shu stepped forward on his horse and said to Liu Qi.  The latter traveled for a while and was satisfied. He immediately turned his horse's head and headed back to Jiangling City Gate.

    Liu Qi returned to the mansion and was naturally happy after a meal and drink. Although his wife was married to the daughter of Pang Ji of the Pang family, her appearance and figure were only ordinary.  But there are quite a few concubines in the Liu Mansion, numbering five or six, so there must be fun every night.?

    Xu Shu once tried to persuade Liu Qi about this matter, and Liu Qi also restrained himself a lot, but he still couldn't change his habit of having sex with women every night. At most, he just stopped being ridiculous and didn't do things like sleeping with his wife.

    One night passed, and when the envoy from Xiangyang arrived the next day, he said that Liu Biao was seriously ill and wanted to see his son.  Liu Qi was so excited that he almost rode his horse to Xiangyang City on the spot.

    Fortunately, Xu Shu stopped him and dismissed the envoy. The two returned to the study room of the mansion to discuss for a while before deciding to set off immediately.  Of course, although it was said to be a discussion, Xu Shu was actually thinking about Cai Mao's intentions alone, while Liu Qi was waiting to hear the results.

    Xu Shu did not think that Cai Mao had the guts to kill Liu Qi directly at this time, and there were many people who opposed him in Xiangyang City, so he no longer objected to Liu Qi going to Xiangyang, and he would go with him.

    The journey went smoothly without any obstruction. Even after entering the city, Cai Mao did not stop Liu Qi from meeting Liu Biao.  Liu Biao was indeed dying at this time. He had to break up the words he spoke and speak one by one. After warning his son, he fell asleep again.

    Liu Qi walked out of his father's bedroom with a heavy heart. Although he had long thought that such a day would come, when it really came, Liu Qi realized that he was completely unprepared.

    From his father¡¯s words, Liu Qi could hear the elements of the ¡®will¡¯. Liu Qi was not a careerist. If Liu Biao asked him to support his younger brother, he would do it.  But his father's order was for him to keep Jingzhou and not let him fall into the hands of aristocratic families. This burden was so heavy that Liu Qi could hardly breathe.

    "I knew he would do this." Cai Hao could agree with Liu Qi to visit Liu Biao, so he had his own plans. When the soldiers below told him all about Liu Qi's expression after he came out of the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion, Cai Hao couldn't help but sneer.

    For three consecutive days, Liu Qi spent the day with his father, and at night he drank alone to relieve his worries. No matter what Xu Shu said next to him, he could not hear anything. This was also his "incompetence".

    "Sir, you have already drank three jars of aged wine today, and you cannot drink any more." In the inner room where Liu Qi lived, the maid held the wine bottle and shook her head, her brows filled with concern for Liu Qi.

    "Get out of the way, I want to drink." Liu Qi drunkenly pushed the maid away, drank a whole glass and shouted: "My father is still alive, you, you won't even let me drink? If my father goes west,  Without me, I, Liu Qi, would have no way to survive!"

    Drunk people always go crazy, and Liu Qi is like this now, and the maid on the side can only hold him upright and wait for Liu Qi to continue drinking. It was not until late at night that Liu Qi put down the wine bottle, but he still didn't stop, just drinking.  The target moved from the wine bottle to the maid on the side.
