Chapter 5: The Life Xi Shi Wants (4)

Spring goes to autumn, flowers bloom and fall, and the time of the year passes in a blink of an eye.

In the past year, Xi Shi, Zheng Dan and others have become more and more popular, and they have also practiced singing and dancing to proficiency. The ten beauties have their own graces, and they all have something moving, and one or two will definitely be able to enter the eyes of King Wu.

Except for sisters like Xi Shi Zheng Dan, who grew up together and had no secrets from each other, the others did not know each other's missions, nor did they know if others were spies like them. The personal maids around each of them are carefully cultivated eyeliners, who are responsible for giving them ideas, delivering messages, and spying on them, but they don't know it.

Fan Li told Yue Wang Goujian that the ten beauties had been trained. The king and queen of Yue held a banquet to entertain them, and gave their families money and money to practice for them.

It's finally time to go to the country of Wu. Xi Shi Zheng Dan had already said goodbye to his parents two days in advance. This is far away from the mountains and rivers, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other again. The king of Yue will firmly hold the family members of the beauties in his hands, and he will take proper care of them, but he will be a hostage. Regardless of whether the state of Wu is destroyed or not, I am afraid it will be goodbye forever.

At the farewell banquet, King Goujian and Queen Yayu took out a jar of excellent rouge drunk. Yayu said that they buried it with their own hands when they got married, and originally wanted to use it when they married their eldest princess, but they didn't expect to encounter a national disaster, and now all the beauties are the best daughters of Yue Kingdom, because the country is weak and have to marry other countries, the king and queen feel deeply guilty, and today they should marry their daughters, and I hope that the beauties will not forget that the people in their hometown are thinking about them after they arrive in Wu.

Yayu's words were sincere and touching.

This rouge drunk is very similar to the daughter of the later generation. When the daughter's family was born, it was brewed by the parents themselves, buried in the ground, and dug up the altar when the daughter got married. The aroma of wine can float for ten miles, making people drunk when they smell it. Whichever family's daughter is popular, it means that this girl is more loved by her parents at home and has family protection. Others can't be bullied casually.

Each girl can only have one jar of this wine in her life. King Yue and Queen Yue took out the rouge drunk brewed for the eldest princess, and immediately moved many people's eyes to be wet.

Yayu poured wine for all the beauties one by one. The women held cups and made a list one by one to express their loyalty.

Xi Shi noticed that the jar of wine was poured to the last beauty just after it was poured, and the wine poured by the palace people on the case of Gou Jian and Yayu was poured separately.

This wine is cool and sweet, reddish in color, and has an unusual mellow aroma. Xi Shi sniffed it carefully, and actually smelled some medicinal smell, which was hidden in the aroma of wine. Xi Shi can't use immortal power, but she has a clear sense and is different from ordinary people. Shake the cup in your hand, sniff it gently, and you will know the greasy in it. Han Ruo had a deep study of Chinese herbal medicine in his previous life, although he did not specialize in sterilization drugs, but he also dabbled a little when he looked through ancient books. Coupled with his super ability to defend medicines, even if he is not far behind the medicine immortals, he immediately understands that this is a sterilization drug.

Looking back on the previous life, none of these women gave birth to children, and the root cause was here! But Zheng Dan was pregnant once before he died, could there be another reason?

No matter what it is, it is a fact that Gou Jian and Yayu gave sterilization drugs to all the girls.

When a woman has a child, she will also plan for her child out of her mother's loving nature, and maybe she will have two hearts for the Yue Kingdom and want to support her child as the monarch of the Wu State. Gou Jian and Yayu put an end to this situation so early, which can be said to be far-reaching. It's just that I don't know if there is Fan Li's handwriting in it.

There is no such plot in the memory of Xi Shi's previous life, and it can be seen that he didn't know such a thing until he died.

Fortunately, the sleeves of the robe at this time were wide. Xi Shi clutched his cup, disguised himself with clothes, secretly poured out the wine in the cup, and poured in the ordinary water and wine he had drunk before, which looked the same as before. Zheng Dan sat next to her. Xi Shi made a gesture and Zheng Dan hugged and cried, and took the opportunity to change his wine with Zheng Dan's, and then replaced the wine in the cup again.

After doing this, a cold sweat broke out on his body. Fortunately, everyone was very excited, and no one noticed Xi Shi's movements. She also followed the example of others, stepped forward with wine to express her loyalty and patriotism, and then drank it all. No one found out about it.

Fan Li personally sent all the beauties to Wu Kingdom. Along the way, he greeted Xi Shi and Zheng Dan and took care of them. Tell them about the customs and customs of Wudi, talk about the earnest instructions and expectations of their parents, and promise to help them filial piety to their parents, please rest assured.

On the way, I encountered a bandit robbery. A group of strong men in black slashed at people with big knives, and all the beauties were scared, but there were not many casualties, but Fan Li was stabbed in the arm to save Xi Shi and shed a lot of blood.

In his previous life, on this night, Xi Shi went through violent ups and downs, moved and guilty, and handed himself over to Fan Li, and since then he has only recognized Fan Li as his beloved.

However, the reborn Xi Shi knew that this was just Fan Li's strategy. is to make Xi Shi die for him, and completely trust him. Therefore, when the big knife was cut, he directly pretended to faint in fright, and naturally there was no follow-up plot.

There are so many people in the team, as long as they avoid that chaotic night, it is not easy for Fan Li to get Xi Shi.

In order to reassure Fan Li, Xi Shi took on the responsibility of taking care of Fan Li after waking up, changing the dressing and washing his wounds with his own hands, hiding and crying every time, touching his cheeks when he was asleep and actually pretending to sleep, and said a lot of words that he was the only one in his heart and lived only for him in this life. Although Fan Li regretted that he could not succeed, he was relieved that he did not use this kind of strategy again.

Gusu City, the capital of Wu State, has abundant water and grass, and the climate is pleasant. Xi Shi and the others walked for more than a month, and finally arrived in Gusu.

Looking at the bustling capital in front of him, Xi Shi held Fan Li's hand tightly, turned to stare at his eyes, and said seriously: "Brother Young Uncle, you promise me that after the great cause is completed, you must take me to live in seclusion in the West Lake, we will be together for the rest of our lives, and we will never be separated again!"

"Don't worry! I promise you, I will never change. Fan Li gently stroked Xi Shi's forehead and the wind-blown hair, and promised.

It's not going to change a fart! It's fake from the start. Xi Shi in his previous life was deceived by Fan Li's promise for a lifetime. In this life, how hypocritical you are to me, I will make you regret it, Xi Shi thought secretly, but nodded solemnly on the surface, and his eyes were full of trust.

The palace of the Kingdom of Wu is bright and magnificent.

The husband received ten beauties in Gyeongbokgung Palace, where the court was held, and gave them positions and residences. The people of Wu Guogong introduced the beauties according to the ranking of the evaluation in the Yue Kingdom. Ten beauties were all designated as beauties by their husbands.

Yue Guo reported their portraits and talents early. The husband has already read them one by one. But when I saw Xi Shi, my eyes lit up, "You are the 'Sinking Fish' beauty Xi Shi?"

Sure enough, there is the appearance of a fallen city! The husband sighed secretly in his heart.

"Sinking Fish" beauty!

Xi Shi knew that this was the news that Fan Li deliberately handed to King Wu.

On the same day, Fan Li, Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were boating on the lake and stream, and the fish that were originally jumping happily on the water surface did not move in the water after Xi Shi came, which is actually the reason why Xi Shi is the "West Lake Fairy", and the fish are naturally afraid to jump around in the majesty of the fairy. Fan Li didn't know why, but just joked that Yu'er was ashamed of Xi Shi's beauty and didn't dare to come out.

Fan Li leaked the news to King Wu, hoping to make King Wu have a special interest in Xi Shi and increase the chance of pampering her. After all, she's the one who seems to be the best to control!

"Back to the king, the concubine is Xi Shi!" Xi Shi curtsied, his temples lowered, revealing a blood-red rouge mole under his right earlobe.

When the husband saw this rouge mole, his heart moved, and a sense of familiarity surged in his heart. However, before it could be captured, it was fleeting.

The husband looked at Xi Shi carefully, and his heart became more and more satisfied. There are many beauties in his harem, many people who are plump and enchanting, and those who are extremely talented, but there are few who are as glamorous as a fairy like Xi Shi. She was like a clear spring, and she suddenly entered his heart.

"It is said that you are good at dancing, why don't you improvise a dance!" Fucha loves clog dancing, and I don't know what this kind of popular dance will look like.

"The concubine obeys the holy order! Please wait for a while," Xi Shi immediately retreated and changed his clothes.

The clog dance is a traditional folk dance at this time, and it is similar to the modern "tap dance". Xi Shi wears clogs, a white feather coat, a pink light gauze shawl around the waist, and the silk is decorated with small golden bells. The clogs step on the wooden plank, making a heavy "clanging and clattering" sound, and the crisp and cheerful "jingling" sound of the small bell on the skirt are intertwined, which has a charming flavor.

At this time, the form of dance was mostly detached from the daily activities of the people. Xi Shi has a refined temperament, a graceful figure, and a unique charm when she dances.

The husband was very happy to see it, and smiled with a smile: "Not bad, yes, it really deserves to be the first beauty in the Yue country!

"The concubine thanked the king!" Xi Shi thanked him, neither alienated nor too flattering King Wu.

King Wu nodded and continued to divide the rest.

Zheng Dan lives in the Liuzhu Palace, not far from the Biwa Pavilion in Xi Shi.

The Biwa Pavilion is built near the lake, with a flowing water corridor inside, and the trees are verdant and dripping, and the layout is exquisite, like a piece of jasper. Zheng Dan's Liuzhu Hall is purple and red, and the flowers are blooming, which is a lively scene. It can be seen that King Wu has put a lot of thought into them, and the pavilions they appreciate are very in line with their personalities. Biwa Pavilion and Liuzhu Hall are not far away, and they can also walk around each other often.

King Wu did not favor anyone that night. It is said that it was the minister Wu Zixu who suggested to King Wu to kill all the beauties offered by Yue Guo, saying that King Yue was offering beauties to spy on the news of Wu, which made King Wu angry.

Xi Shi remembered Wu Zixu. In the previous life, there was a beauty from the Yue Kingdom who was pregnant once, and Wu Zixu directly asked King Wu to kill the beauty along with the child in her belly to prevent the Yue people from stealing the national weapon. He also said that in order to prevent King Goujian of Yue, all the concubines offered by Yue Guo could not get pregnant, otherwise they would be executed by both mother and child, just in case.

I have to say that Wu Zixu's political acumen is really high, and he is absolutely loyal and patriotic, but he is too ruthless. How innocent is a woman, and how innocent is a young son?

At that time, in order to help the beauty keep the child, Xi Shi Zheng Dan complained to King Wu under Fan Li's construction that Wu Zixu supported the army and respected himself, intending to get involved in the heir of the country and having bad intentions. In a fit of rage, the husband gave him a sword, saying that if he tried to kill the prince again, he would kill himself!

Wu Zixu was extremely fierce and committed suicide directly. But the beauty died soon after. Fan Li said that Wu Zixu had left a back hand to kill her.

Now that Xi Shi knows that all the beauties have taken sterilization drugs, he naturally doesn't think that beauty will really get pregnant. I'm afraid it's just a ploy by Fan Li to provoke Fucha and Wu Zixu's ministers.

In short, Wu Zixu's death removed a major obstacle for Yue to attack Wu.

Later, Zheng Dan angered his husband and was confined in his palace, according to Hongguo, Zheng Dan was pregnant with a child, and soon after being grounded by his husband, he was lost, and Zheng Dan soon died tragically.

This is also the place where Xi Shi couldn't forgive his husband the most in his previous life. Without Wu Zixu, no one would threaten their children, but Zheng Dan's children were gone because of her husband's poor life, and she herself died quickly.

Now that I think about it, how could Zheng Dan get pregnant? Since everyone had taken the sterilization pill before going to Wu State, the pregnancy may be just an illusion created by Fan Li and the others by buying the imperial doctor and using medicine.

Zheng Dan, as an outcast, was really used by them to the extreme. My previous life was really pathetic!

Now he and Zheng Dan are not physically damaged. If the husband treats their sisters sincerely, they can live a good life with him.

Of course, the premise is that they can get rid of Gou Jian Fan Li's control.

The days that followed were the same as before. Wu Wangfu sent the new beauties to the palace one by one, which can be called rain and dew.

Later, as they got along for a long time, the husband gradually had a preference, and then later, Xi Shi and Zheng Dan really became the most favored people in the harem, such as the lotus flower blooming separately. The other people who entered the palace together were not left out in the cold, or they were punished for committing a crime, and Xi Shi didn't pay too much attention to it.

Fucha is not a person who only loves one person, he loves beautiful women, but whoever has it in his heart will be good to her wholeheartedly. He would give her and Zheng Dan special gifts on their birthdays, knowing that they loved to eat bamboo shoots from their hometown, he would send someone to pick them, and if he had good things, he would always be the first to send them here. He is like a sunny boy who understands โ–กโ–ก for the first time, and he will always be kind to them unconsciously. It makes people feel warm in their hearts.

In addition, the husband is handsome and handsome, so people can't help but feel excited when they look at him.
