It is said that Liu Tong got Liu Qian's letter, and patted the case: "Good plan! Because of the importance of this matter, he handed over the matter of Dongying to the generals and returned to Lu by himself. Mrs. Liu led the Yingying Yanyan to greet her, and stood in front of her with Ma's hand; Liu Tong praised her virtuousness when he saw it, laughed, and walked into the house with his left hand and his right hand Aiji.

After enjoying the blessings of all people, Liu Tong discussed with his wife about recording the second girl in her name. Mrs. Liu said: "Speaking of the three girls, they are more filial than the second girls, if you want to remember a concubine, I would rather remember the three girls." ”

Liu Tong said: "The three girls are too small. Fang said that he wanted to marry his daughter to King Lu.

Mrs. Liu pretended to be surprised and praised: "My lord is a good plan! In this way, King Lu is our son-in-law. ”

Liu Tong smiled: "It's the idea of a staff member below." If you like the three girls, you can change her. ”

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said: "The third girl is too young, and it will take three or four years for her to have children." It's good to be a second girl, the second girl is filial in her heart, and she is just stupid. ”

Liu Tong stroked his beard with satisfaction and said: "If you have such a good wife, what more can you ask for." ”

Liu Tong was a rough man and was in a hurry, so he sent someone to prepare a self-incrimination letter for Princess Lu the next day. Princess Lu cried to death like the sky had fallen. Although King Lu didn't like the current princess very much, he was more and more reluctant to let him marry Liu Dong's daughter. However, the Queen Mother Qingming told the king of Sùlu: "It is obvious that Liu Thief wants to be a serious leader of the Lu country." That's fine. Although his daughter is his daughter now, she will be your daughter-in-law when she marries. gave birth to a son in the coming day, where do you remember who Lao Tzu is? I hope she is stronger, and she can't be on the stage like this. King Lu listened to his mother's words and complied. Immediately the edict told the subjects of Lu that the first princess was willing to occupy the second position, and Liu Tong's second daughter was about to marry the king of Lu as the main concubine. Since then, King Lu has called Liu Tong "father-in-law", and Liu Tong has called King Lu "virtuous son-in-law", and the two have enjoyed themselves. So far, Liu Tong has become more and more important to Liu Qian.

Let's talk about Mars. Liu Tong is not in these days, and Zhao Tu often has private meetings with her. A while ago, Zhao Tu got the news of Jia Cong's blindness, although he never showed any traces, he became more and more fond of Ma's; Ma's heart is clear. Since ancient times, Chang'e has loved teenagers. Liu Tong is a reckless man after all, and he is old enough to be her father; Therefore, although she still thinks about King Chen in her heart, she is more willing to be with Zhao Tu now. It's just that the two of them are cheating after all, and they can't see anyone, and Zhao Tushen regrets it.

Although every meeting was extremely confidential, Mrs. Liu was still aware of it. In the past, Mrs. Liu trusted her and never guarded her. As the days went by, Ma was somewhat slack. Because Liu Qian broke Ma's plan, Mrs. Liu suddenly felt that this woman was tantamount to a tiger wolf, and immediately stared at her. It was only three days after Mrs. Liu explained to her son that this woman was a woman, and the young general Liu Shu met a beauty by chance, and she looked back and smiled. Liu Shu's three souls and seven spirits were more than half of them, and he was busy making people find out - it turned out to be his father's concubine Ma! Liu Shu woke up like a thunderbolt above his head, and hurriedly ran to tell his mother. Mrs. Liu paid more and more attention to Ma's.

Eventually, Ma borrowed back to his mother's house to have a private meeting with Zhao Tu, so that Mrs. Liu's people could see the traces. Mrs. Liu was shocked: "How could it be him!" "Immediately stumbled," but that was amazing! If he is that cheap; The appearance of people is good, and my son is in danger. Hurriedly called Liu Shu to discuss.

Liu Shu pondered: "It's not good. This Zhao Tu is an amorous seed. He was originally a staff member of Gaoli in Ping'an Prefecture, and because he fell in love with that Huang Li, he did not hesitate to rebel and follow Huang Li to Lu State. Ma's appearance is ten times stronger than Huang Li, and he threw Huang Li away. Ma coaxed him easily. ”

Mrs. Liu said: "Let's find someone stronger than Ma's appearance?" ”

Liu Shu smiled bitterly: "The Ma family is already one in a million, where can I find someone stronger than her?" Even if there is, it won't be the turn of the surname Zhao, so I won't take it away from my father first. After thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't deal with it." Unless you show it to my father, then Mr. Zhao will have no way to live. Now my dad still needs him. ”

Mrs. Liu said: "I think Mr. Liu is better than him. ”

Liu Shu shook his head and said, "There are not many people under my father who have to use it. Mr. Zhao and Mr. Liu are classmates and friends, so why don't I go and meet Mr. Liu quietly and ask him to persuade Mr. Zhao. ”

Mrs. Liu said, "It's okay." After all, it was the master's woman who scared him for a while. But I had another plan in my heart.

At noon the next day, Liu Shu changed into ordinary people's clothes and hats, quietly found a small shop where Liu Qian usually ate, and pretended to be a passing guest to share a table with him. Liu Qian naturally recognized him and asked him to sit down with a smile. Liu Shu then whispered to him that Zhao Tu had an affair with Ma. Liu Qian was a little surprised, and then said with a straight face: "I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding inside." To be honest, I also noticed that Brother Zhao secretly admired Ma's, and he just admired him. I have known Brother Zhao for many years, and he will not touch the lord's woman. Brother Zhao is a serious person who reads the Four Books and the Five Classics. Liu Shu was in a hurry, and he used all his tongues, but he didn't swear by the curse. He is not Ma and not Zhao Tu, what is the use of him swearing on such things? After talking for more than half an hour, Liu Qian only didn't believe it.

Liu Shu hung his head and went back to his mother. Mrs. Liu said: "Mr. Liu is loyal and upright, and Mr. Zhao is his classmate and old friend, if there is no evidence of such things, he will not believe it." "Let Liu Shu not worry, she always has evidence to find out." Black never turns white. ”

Not long after, Miss Liu Jiaer married King Lu, and the whole country celebrated. Three days later, the second lady returned to the door, and Liu Tong held a banquet in the house to entertain her son-in-law. Zhao Tu naturally accompanied him to drink. After eighty years of drinking, Zhao Tu was a little drunk, hot and dry, and inexplicably missed Ma's. So under the pretext of a small relief, he quietly touched the back. What a coincidence! I didn't even meet a little girl along the way, and there was no one empty. Touching Ma's yard, Zhao Tu climbed a big poplar tree, sat on the tree, and looked into the courtyard like a fool.

About two quarters of an hour later, someone came from a distance, and it was Ma's two maids who came back with her in their arms. Seeing that Ma's cheeks were flushed, it was obvious that he had not drunk less, and he was as soft as a willow branch, which was three points better than usual. Zhao Tu was stupid. At one point, Ma Shi entered the courtyard, and as soon as the courtyard door was closed, he couldn't see it, and hurriedly climbed to a high place again. Seeing that Ma staggered and helped the girl into the house, he continued to be stupid. In the distance, the sound of opera singing music came, babbling lingering, and the warm spring breeze swept through the treetops, and Zhao Tu's brain was confused. Then I forgot where I was, I forgot what my identity was, and I forgot the two people surnamed Bai in Lingnan, so I jumped down from the tree, went around the back of the yard, and climbed over the wall.

Outside, Liu Tong was also drunk, and someone went inside to sue Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "The general saw the virtuous son-in-law today, and he was happy in his heart, and drank two more glasses." Nai instructed, "Ma has just returned to the courtyard, so send the general to her." The person below agreed, and went out to help Liu Tong to the Ma family's courtyard. The crowd then went on to drink and watch the play.

Mrs. Liu's heart was in her throat, and she waited for a long time, but there was no movement! then you know that the strategy is not good. After a long time, someone finally came to invite her quietly. Mrs. Liu smiled and confessed to all the ladies and asked what was the matter. The man said: "There was something trivial in Aunt Ma's yard, and the general ordered someone to quietly invite Mrs. over." Mrs. Liu hurriedly led people over.

When I got there, Zhao Tu was sleeping on the chaise longue in front of Ma's Hall, Liu Tong pointed at him and said with a wry smile: "This guy has eaten too much wine, scurried around, and came to Xiangzhu to slam the door." Xiangzhu's girl didn't know who it was, and after asking for a long time, as soon as she opened the door, he fell down and couldn't move drunk. ”

Mrs. Liu secretly hated in her heart, and asked with concern on her face: "Xiangzhu is scared?" ”

"Can you not be scared!" Liu Tong said, "The little face turned white with fright. ”

Mrs. Liu sighed: "Who can reason with the intoxicating person? I heard that Mr. Xiao Zhao is usually very cautious, so he must be happy today, so he drank two more cups. Xiangzhu is sensible, and I know she doesn't care. ”

Liu Tong said: "It's okay, I'll comfort her a few words when I go back." ”

Mrs. Liu nodded: "I have entrusted it to my lord." Then he ordered someone to take two brocades from the treasury to suppress Aunt Ma's shock, and said: "Now I only send him out quietly from the back and put him on the stone bench in the back garden, and only say that he fell asleep on the stone bench." If he knew about it, he would be very remorseful. ”

Liu Tong nodded again and again: "Madame is the most appropriate." ”

Mrs. Liu ordered several daughters-in-law to move Zhao Tu out, and ordered to be careful, not to wake up Mr. Zhao, and glanced at Mama Yu. Mama Yu understood and personally followed to direct the daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law to help people.

Just helped Zhao Tu across the threshold, only to hear a few sounds of "jingle - grunt", and some gold fell to the ground. Mrs. Liu saw a hairpin rolling on the ground at a glance, and hurriedly said, "Good life to help Mr.!" Whoever drops her hairpin and comes back to me to get it, and I will reward her with one more. All the daughters-in-law thanked one after another.

Seeing that they were going out, a maid who followed stepped forward to pick up the hairpin and handed it to Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu looked at it and said, "Good thing! Master, the people in our house are also rich! Look at this hairpin! ”

When Liu Tong looked at it, his eyebrows stood up: "Whose is this?" ”

Mrs. Liu said: "I just let any of them drop it after a while." ”

The maid on the side sighed: "It's so beautiful! Why don't I see anyone wearing it today? ”

Another said, "I really didn't see anyone wearing it." If someone takes it, won't everyone look around her? ”

Mrs. Liu smiled: "The hairpin is not worn on the head, is it still pinned to the waist?" It's not theirs, it can't be Mr. Zhao's. ”

The maid smiled: "Bao Buqi was bought by Mr. Zhao for his daughter-in-law." Mrs. just look at this hairpin, where do we slaves wear it? ”

They were talking and laughing, but Ma's maid caught a glimpse of it and exclaimed: "This is the eight-treasure auspicious cloud ruyi hairpin that our aunt lost last month!" I've been looking for it for a long time! It turned out that someone stole it. ”

A maid beside Mrs. Liu hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense! These grandmothers and aunts are all with our wife, and if they don't enter your yard at all, how can they steal your aunt's things! Our wives are generous, they want it, and they ask for a wife. Then the two maids quarreled.

Liu Tong and Mrs. Liu glanced at each other, and their faces were not very good-looking. After a while, Liu Tong got up, picked up his feet and was about to go inside. Mrs. Liu grabbed him: "General, stop!" But he shouted loudly, and all the people in the house went out.

A group of girls, you look at me, I look at you, and when I saw that ink was dripping from the old lady's face, I was so frightened that I held my breath and went out one by one.

Mrs. Liu knelt down to Liu Tong with tears in her eyes and said, "General, although the concubine is a woman, she has never studied, but she has heard a few plays. It is said in the play that Lu Bu fell in love with Dong Zhuo's concubine Diao Chan, met in Fengyi Pavilion, and was bumped into by Dong Zhuo. There is Dong Zhuo's strategist Li Ru who said that Diao Chan is just a woman, and Lu Bu is a warrior of the general, why bother to be angry with a warrior for a woman? persuaded him to give Diao Chan to Lu Bu. Dong Zhuo refused, so he turned against Lu Bu. ”

Liu Tong was originally just suspicious that the two of them were selfish, and he was full of thoughts about how to interrogate Ma and how to interrogate Zhao Tu when he turned around; Mrs. Liu's words have already confirmed the matter. Then he said viciously: "You mean, I'm that Dong Zhuo?" ”

Mrs. Liu shook her head and said, "The concubine doesn't know these Dong Zhuo Lu Bu's. The concubine only knew that Mr. Zhao was really important to General Yu. If there is no him, I am afraid that many things in the country of Lu will be difficult to handle. Ma is just a woman. If the general likes it, he will find a few more who are not inferior to her. It's better to give Ma to Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao must be grateful to the five and feel guilty, and he will definitely die for the general in the future. ”

Liu Tong sneered: "The woman who stole me, still expect him to be grateful and guilty? ”

Mrs. Liu pleaded: "Talent is rare! ”

Liu Tong snorted: "There is no shortage of one or two people under my hands!" ”

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said, "This matter ...... Well, this matter ......"

"Huh?"

Mrs. Liu wanted to speak several times, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "Shu'er heard about this a few days ago, sue me; I just didn't believe it, and scolded him. He went to sue Mr. Liu again, wanting Mr. Liu to warn Mr. Zhao; Who knew that Mr. Liu didn't believe it either, and argued with him for a long time. Eh, the concubine body means that Shu'er is not aware of it......"

Liu Tong's old face immediately turned red as if it was burning: "The woman who co-starred with me stole people, my son knew about it, but I didn't know it!" ”

Mrs. Liu hurriedly said: "The concubine doesn't believe it either!" ”

Liu Tong couldn't stay any longer, flicked his sleeves and left, and ordered the door of the courtyard to be locked and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Nai strode forward, thought that he had not gone to the banquet, and turned and went to the study; ordered someone to call Liu Shu over.

For a while, Liu Shu rushed to the outer study, looked up and saw that the ground was full of porcelain fragments, his face was as black as King Kong, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to squeak. Liu Tong stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, and asked without looking back: "Someone sued you that Ma and Zhao Tu had an affair?" ”

Liu Shu couldn't help but shout: "Father, you know!" A relative of my own soldier lives next door to Ma's house, and Zhao Tu slipped in in the middle of the night after seeing Ma returning to his parents' house several times! That person is a good thing, and a few times Tete was lying in the yard and guarding, and I saw that Zhao Tu five geniuses sneaking out, and the dragon spirit was fierce! I told my mother that she didn't believe me! It's good to say that Ma's is good. After a moment, he muttered, "You two clearly fascinated her." ”

Liu Tong didn't move, and asked again for a long time: "Where is Liu Qian?" ”

Liu Shu pouted and said, "He doesn't believe it either." I know that Zhao Tu is a talented person and has the ability to never forget, because I thought that he was a person important to my father, so I went to trouble Liu Qian to warn him. Who knew that Liu Qian was a nerd! He only said that Zhao Tu was a sage who read books, and he was full of wealth, and he would never do such a trivial thing. There must have been some who were jealous of his father's favor and who had made up gossip to frame him. ”

After being silent for a long time, Liu Tong nodded: "I know." ”
