Because Nanjun is a rich place, the Taishou Mansion built in Gangneung City and the Taishou Mansion in Shucheng are two completely different painting styles, first of all, from the perspective of scale, Gangneung Taishou Mansion is twice as large as Shucheng Taishou Mansion. In addition to the wide area of the Gangneung Taeshoufu, the architectural style of the Gangneung Taeshoufu is also gorgeous, and the front and back courtyards are connected by countless corridors decorated with wisteria roses, among which there are large and small gardens, which are planted with precious flowers and plants, and the largest back garden also has a pond where you can go boating, and in the pond stands swaying lotus flowers.

The collection in the mansion is also very precious, when Sun Ce took Shen Xian to "raid the house" with great interest, the two found all kinds of antiques and masterpieces of the former dynasty from the private treasury of Taishou, and more were mountains of gold and silver jewelry, which were dazzling.

Although Huang Zu was rich, in the end, he was starved to death in disguise. There is no way, in this era, grain is far more valuable than gold and silver, and sometimes it is not necessarily possible to buy food if you have a mountain of gold, after all, the landlord's food is not enough to eat after years of war.

But what made Shen Xian happiest was not that she had copied Huang Zu's family background, but that she had inherited the little maid of Huang Zu's mansion.

Maybe it's Huang Zu's bad taste, the appearance of the maids in the Jiangling Taishou Mansion is the highest Shen Xian has ever seen, these little girls are between thirteen and twenty-five years old, all of them are innocent, lively, and beautiful, and they line up from the corridor full of wisteria to walk through Tingting, which is pleasing to the eye.

Guo Jia, who was very perverted with Shen Xian and hid in the corner to watch, said that he also felt that the lord was very pleasing to the eye, but he was a little dissatisfied with the fact that his eyes would light up when he looked at the maids.

Living in such a Taishou mansion, Shen Xian felt very comfortable, she could stay here for a month without going out, as long as there was delicious food and beautiful maids for her to see every day.

However, today, because Shen Xian and Guo Jiawo did such and such things in the back garden, the garden was burned, and people from all walks of life came to find out, and those who were concerned about the lively news, as well as the craftsmen Xun You and Cai Yan found to repair it...... The noisy people gathered in a mess, and the calm house became chaotic, and the usually obedient maids were frightened, and their faces were panicked.

Shen Xian couldn't figure out why she had just accidentally burned a small corner of the garden, why these maids were afraid of this, as if they had done something terrible.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Shen Xian sat under the corridor with a little headache, she waved her hand and said domineeringly: "What do girls think about their twists and turns?" Simply say what you have to say! ”

Shen Xian gathered around a lot of little maids, they snuggled together like fledglings, looking at each other hesitantly, after hearing Shen Xian's words, one of them poked his head out quite boldly and said cautiously: "Lord, Qingqing didn't deliberately pile firewood in the garden, she just hasn't had time to move to the firewood room yet......"

"Qingqing?" Shen Xian was stunned, she hadn't been here for a long time, and she really didn't dare to compliment Huang Zu's habit of naming the maid, they were all overlapping words such as Qingqing and curly, which were very difficult to recognize, so Shen Xian still hadn't recognized all the Yingying Yanyan in this mansion.

"Not long after she came, she was sent by Sister Miao Miao to help in the kitchen." Seeing that Shen Xian was not impatient, the bold maid continued: "She's very good, but she's a little stupid...... The slaves will train her! ”

The other maids chimed in: "Yes, yes! We'll train her! ”

Shen Xian: "......"

Is it really good for such a group of soft and cute girls to say that they want to "teach" another girl?

"Stop!" Shen Xian stretched out her hand and made a gesture of refusal.

The excited maids realized that they had crossed the border, and they all bowed their heads and shut up.

"I didn't think about what to do to her." Shen Xian sighed helplessly, she felt that she had a strange awkwardness when she said this: "This incident was an accident, and I also put the fire." ”

"But......" The maid who spoke first had a hint of anxiety on her face: "But Lord Cai wants to expel Qingqing from the mansion!" ”

"What?" Shen Xian was stunned, she rubbed her ears: "Say it again?" ”

"It's true!" The maid walked in front of Shen Xian with small steps, she lifted her skirt and knelt down slowly, and carefully put her hand on Shen Xian's knee: "Lord Cai said that he wanted to send Qingqing away, Qingqing's deed of sale was signed as a death deed, life and death are all people in this mansion, if she is sent out......"

Seeing that the eyes of a group of maids were red, and they were about to cry in the next second, Shen Xian was so frightened that she hurriedly said, "Don't cry!" Won't be kicked out! I'll check it out! ”

"Thank you, my lord!" After Shen Xian finished speaking, a happy expression appeared on the faces of the maids, and a little girl rubbed her eyes and smiled: "Mr. Guo is right, the lord is really the best-"

Before the little girl finished speaking, she was slapped on the head by Sister Miao Miao, and her soft coquettish voice turned into an aggrieved "Boom".

Shen Xian: "......"

"Lord, you are busy first!" The maids all saluted Shen Xian: "The slaves and maids are leaving!" ”

Seeing those beautiful maids holding hands and running away with smoke, Shen Xian gritted her teeth and pinched off a peony flower blooming on the branches.

Guo Fengxiao! You dare to get involved in Lao Tzu's back house! Lao Tzu's woman, you dare to move!

You give me back cute and cute girls!

In order to avoid suddenly seeing the maids in the mansion looking at him with that pitiful gaze when he turned back by chance, Shen Xian decided to put aside the matter of settling accounts with Guo Jia, and turned a corner to find Cai Yan first.

After Shen Xian's investigation in the afternoon, she finally found the time when Xun Yu was away.

Shen Xian coughed and straightened her waist and stepped out from behind the corridor, she walked to Cai Yan's side with a smile on her face: "Zhao Ji, are you busy?" ”

Cai Yan was holding her sleeves and commanding the craftsmen to finish repairing the corner burned by Shen Xian, and when she heard Shen Xian's words, she turned around and smiled: "Lord, you are here." ”

"I'll come to see you," Shen Xian smiled shyly, and she said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry for you." ”

"It's nothing." Cai Yan shook her head, she looked at Shen Xian teasingly: "Anyway, I used to be in charge of the affairs in your mansion...... You can still trouble me until I get married. ”

Shen Xian suddenly remembered that if it weren't for the fact that she went to Shouchun to toss around, Cai Yan would have married Xun You by now.

Shen Xian felt a little guilty when she mentioned this, she coughed and grabbed Cai Yan's arm: "Zhaoji, you and Gongda ......"

"He's already mentioned kissing." Cai Yan smiled softly: "Father has set the wedding date for the first month of next year, you will definitely be able to come." ”

"Of course." Shen Xian nodded: "I still have to give you a big gift!" What do you want? ”

"Is this still going to be wanted?" Cai Yan blinked in surprise: "Isn't it that I will receive whatever you send?" ”

"What you want, and I gave it," Shen Xian looked at Cai Yan's eyes and said, her eyes were full of seriousness: "It's two completely different things." ”

"That's right." Cai Yan nodded clearly, and the corners of her lips curled: "Then I want to see you......"

"Dominate the world."

The four words fell into her ears gently, but the feeling given to Shen Xian was no less than a thunderbolt, and her whole person became dizzy. Shen Xian involuntarily raised her hand and pressed her chest, she felt that there was a certain emotion in her heart that was gradually full, and she was a little uncomfortable, and she was very anxious to say something.

But Shen Xian didn't say a word, she just stared blankly at Cai Yan's delicate and soft face, completely unexpectedly that she could hear such words.

Speaking of Sister Zhaohime, didn't you really get the wrong script?

After a long time, Shen Xian finally spoke with difficulty: "You ......"

"Did it scare you? I'm sorry. Cai Yan's hand holding Shen Xian's arm tightened, and she whispered, "But this is really my wish." ”

Maybe it's because of her tutor, compared to others, Cai Yan is a very courageous and capable woman, whether it was in Luoyang when Cai Yan recommended herself to Shen Xian to replace Cai Yong to stay in the army, or later repeatedly helped Shen Xian to come out frequently, it is not something that ordinary women can do.

But in Cai Yan's opinion, she can only get to this day, in addition to her own efforts, the most important thing is that Shen Xian gave her a chance.

Shen Xian herself is a girl, she is still a deviant girl, she has acted as a man since she was a child under Liu Yan's training, because the education she received is completely different from that of other girls, so her thoughts and visions are different.

How can a girl who has broadened her horizons and learned power and strategy be willing to return to the deep house compound to live a lifetime with her husband and children? Such a girl is destined to be impossible to fight with the seven aunts and eight aunts in the inner house, and her world is the whole world, not within the narrow walls.

It is inevitable that Shen Xian will kick out Liu Zhang to take charge of Yizhou, because those men will not let a woman challenge their authority like this, Shen Xian will either hold the power and go all the way to the peak, so that everyone can't say anything and dare not gossip, or die, there is no third way to go.

This choice is actually full of determination and tragedy, but Shen Xian can't see it.

Or maybe she doesn't care at all.

This is how Cai Yan was attracted to such a Shen Xian.

Cai Yan's father is Cai Yong, she is naturally intelligent, she has been familiar with the subset of scriptures and history since she was a child, she is talented and knowledgeable, and she is not much better than some scholars who are too learned, and she has unique views and insights on various things. But she is such a dazzling woman, but she was maliciously treated by her mother-in-law after she got married.

That's a memory that Cai Yan doesn't really want to mention, although she and Wei Zhongdao respect each other like guests, and Wei Zhongdao also respects and appreciates her talent, but Wei Zhongdao's mother doesn't like Cai Yan like this, she thinks Cai Yan is not well-behaved and obedient enough, as a woman, she has to study and laugh to death, and the most evil thing is that Cai Yan can't give birth to children.

Of course, that is not Cai Yan's reason, Wei Zhongdao is not in good health, he is even weaker than Guo Jia, and he takes more medicine than food...... Expecting such a person to have children?

Cai Yan recuperated Wei Zhongdao for a year, but Wei Zhongdao's mother did not trust Cai Yan, she did not let her son take the medicine prescribed by Cai Yan, and always smeared Cai Yan's image in front of her son.

Wei Zhongdao likes Cai Yan very much, but he also respects his parents, so he can only be caught between his daughter-in-law and his mother-in-law, and it is difficult to find it...... He died.

So Wei Zhongdao's mother began to scold Cai Yan for being a broom star in addition to grief, and the eight characters were too hard to kill her son. Cai Yan was able to endure it before, completely out of respect for the old man and didn't want Wei Zhongdao to be embarrassed, now that Wei Zhongdao has passed away, how long will she have to endure it?

The clay figure also has three points of temperament, not to mention that Cai Yan is not a clay person, as a young lady of the family, she actually has a great temper, but she just looks gentle and gentle.

Cai Yan moved back to Cai's house in a rage, fortunately Cai Yong is a good father, he can't see his daughter suffering, come back when he comes back, it's a big deal to find a good family, or even if Cai Yan doesn't marry for the rest of his life, he can raise it with Cai Yong's financial resources.

For a while after returning home, Cai Yan has been thinking about whether she has done something wrong, because the other girls she knows can't go back to their parents' homes lightly, regardless of how they are doing after they get married and whether their husbands die early. But just when Cai Yan began to feel that she was a little willful, she heard the news that Shen Xian came to ask Dong for illness.

Shen Xian is Cai Yan's younger sister and the only female student Cai Yong has ever taught, although she is a woman dressed as a man, but this does not change that Shen Xian is essentially a girl.

Over the years, Cai Yan has frequently heard news from Shen Xian, what Liu Xiaogongzi led the troops to exterminate the Yellow Turban thieves, and he took up an official position to manage a county before he was weak. Others will only marvel at Shen Xian's youth, and Cai Yan will also marvel at Shen Xian as a girl, how can she do this? How much did she suffer? How much effort has been put in?

Gradually, a thought vaguely appeared in Cai Yan's heart: If Shen Xian can do it, can she too?

The image of Shen Xian in Cai Yan's memory has actually become very blurred, after all, the two have not seen each other for many years. Cai Yan's only impression of Shen Xian at that time was that the little girl was a little stubborn and grabbed her skirt and followed her, looking at those jewelry hairpin rings with eyes full of envy, Cai Yan had the heart to dress her up, but was refused.

"I can't ask for it, and I can't wear it." The little girl clenched her pink fists: "Daddy said I was a boy...... I'm going to show at least a little bit of xiàn. ”

Cai Yan felt distressed for no reason.

Not only that, other children who are studying will have their parents or relatives to see them regularly, but Shen Xian does not.

Liu Yan is very busy, even if it is inconvenient for him to come over, he will still ask Cai Yong after meeting him. But the others, Shen Xian's eldest brother, second brother and third brother, none of them came to see their sister. Only the fourth Liu Zhang will play with Shen Xian, and he always bullies her.

Cai Yan felt uncomfortable when she looked at Shen Xian's indifferent appearance, so she always took Shen Xian to play together, and the relationship between the two gradually became intimate. Later, Shen Xian left after completing her studies, and the two sometimes wrote letters to communicate, but when Shen Xian followed Liu Yan to Yizhou and Cai Yan also got married, the mountains and rivers were far away, and the sound of the book was difficult to transmit, so the two gradually lost contact.

It wasn't until outside Luoyang City that Shen Xian rushed out with people to disrupt Dong Zhuo's army and rescued many court officials, Cai Yan was also taken by a soldier on horseback and left in a hurry, and at a glance, Cai Yan saw the person who immediately crossed the qin.

The former little girl has grown into a high-spirited general today, although the eyebrows are still immature, but they are already worlds apart.

After being rescued, Cai Yan was sent to Shen Xian's camp, and in the spacious tent, Cai Yan said to Cai Yong: "I want to help her, I want to follow her." ”

Cai Yong didn't object, he just looked at his daughter deeply: "You decided?" ”

Cai Yan nodded firmly: "It's decided." ”

Instead of wasting a few years and then finding the right person to marry and look at people's faces all day long, it is better to take a different path, although this road is difficult and dangerous, and no one has even succeeded, but Cai Yan is not alone.

Didn't Shen Xian already open the way for her in front? Wouldn't it be better for the two to walk together?

Cai Yan, who opened the door to the new world, said that he couldn't stop at all, and it turned out that life could still be lived like this.

Although the soldiers were very unconvinced at the beginning, and always said bad things about Cai Yan behind their backs, but since they were taught a few times by Shen Xian carrying the piano, these voices have decreased a lot, and when Cai Yan used her wisdom to come up with a lot of strategies, gradually no one said bad things about her, and when Cai Yan was mentioned, the soldiers all gave a thumbs up, and they boasted with their not rich vocabulary: Mr. Cai is very powerful! Exceptionally smart!

[Completion in a moment]******

That's a memory that Cai Yan doesn't really want to mention, although she and Wei Zhongdao respect each other like guests, and Wei Zhongdao also respects and appreciates her talent, but Wei Zhongdao's mother doesn't like Cai Yan like this, she thinks Cai Yan is not well-behaved and obedient enough, as a woman, she has to study and laugh to death, and the most evil thing is that Cai Yan can't give birth to children.
