Chapter 14 Getting a Female Concubine
It's not complicated.
Tuoba Liwei's plan is to exchange the population and war horses for Xiang Ao's trust and a short period of peace.
Tuoba Liwei promised that as long as Xiang Ao was alive, Tuoba Liwei would not go south to the Central Plains. In order to show sincerity, Tuobaliwei promised to give Xiang Ao tens of thousands of Mobei BMWs and hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people after Xiang Ao helped Tuoba Liwei unify Xianbei.
Tens of thousands of war horses Xiang Ao was naturally disrespectful, but as for the hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people, Xiang Ao thought about it and stayed.
Xiang Ao was naturally a little worried that Tuoba Liwei would sneak Xianbei's fine work into the Central Plains with him. However, Xiang Ao thought about it, anyway, it takes soldiers to attack the Qiang people and recover the Western Regions.
It is also necessary to move Xianbei to Xiliang and prepare for the Qiang people.
In this way, the two sides reached an agreement, after Xiang Ao broke through the siege of Wolf Juxu Mountain and returned to the Central Plains, Mobei may be peaceful for decades.
Yanguo, Yecheng.
"Please also ask the lord to accept the concubine!"
"Please take the princess!"
The border was temporarily tranquil, and Jia Xu brought all the civil and military generals to force the palace again on top of the court meeting.
Xiang Ao was a little helpless, and he was not easy to criticize. Today's Yanguo wants to rely on his own strength to lay down the territory of Nuoda.
If you want the power of Yanguo to survive forever, it is naturally necessary to inherit Xiang Ao's heirs.
But now Xiang Ao has only one son, even if Xiang Ping inherits Xiang Ao's bravery, who can guarantee that Xiang Ping will not have an accident when he fights the world with Xiang Ao?
In this way, for the sake of the inheritance of the Yanguo forces, the military generals under Xiang Ao's command once again admonished and asked Xiang Ao to take a concubine.
Xiang Ao didn't understand the worries of the generals under his command, but Xiang Ao didn't want too many beauties in the harem. First, he was worried that the harem would be too entangled with foreign ministers, and second, Xiang Ao was not sure how long he could stay in this world, and most of the time, he was also fighting outside the world, for fear of delaying the beauty.
Xiang Ao also worked very hard, as long as the war stopped, he stayed with Cai Yan every day, just to have two more sons and stabilize the minds of his generals.
I don't know why, no matter how hard Xiang Ao and Cai Yan tried, they never got their wish.
A few years ago, it was hard to make Cai Yan happy again, and when she returned to Yanguo after fighting Xianbei, Cai Yan had already given birth, but Xiang Ao didn't expect it to be a girl.
It's not that Xiang Ao is patriarchal, but Xiang Ping will definitely return to the original world with him, if he can give birth to a son, Xiang Ao will have an heir in this world.
"Wenhe, this king is still young, don't worry."
"Lord!" Jia Xu didn't give up, and Zhengse said: "The heir of the lord and son is related to the stability of the entire Yan country, and the gospel of the people must not be ignored. ”
"Then you don't have to take three or five concubines at once, right?"
Hu Zhao attached the most importance to this matter, and seeing that Xiang Ao still didn't take it to heart, he stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Lord, what Jia Saijiu said is very true. ”
"Now the lord's net worth is related to the entire Yan country, and even the general trend of the world, and I ask the lord to agree, and accept the concubine on the same day."
"Please think twice!"
Not only Xu Shu, Xi Zhong and others, but even the former Hanchen Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, Kong Rong and others in the university who had already died, all stepped forward and persuaded Xiang Ao with a straight face.
"Flame King! Would you like to listen to the minister? ”
Cai Yong held a cane, and with the support of Xiang Ao's soldiers, he stood up and was about to kneel.
Xiang Ao was startled, bounced up from the couch, appeared in front of Cai Yong with a bang, and helped Cai Yong up.
"Uncle Yue, what are you doing? It's a bad thing. ”
The lord is fast again! Xu Shu, Dian Wei, Tai Shici and others looked at Xiang Ao, admiring and envy in their hearts, but also shocked.
"Uncle Yue can just say anything directly."
"Flame King!" Cai Yong smiled lightly, and no longer polite: "What the sacrificial wine, the prime minister and the ministers said is the truth, and the concubine must be accepted." ”
"But..."
Cai Yong waved his hand to interrupt Xiang Ao, and said with a chuckle: "King Yan's affection for Yan'er is known to the old man. But King Yan has to think more about the people of the world. ”
"King Rong Ben is thinking about it!"
"Flame King!" "Lord!"
"My lord, the queen asks to see you!"
Just when Xiang Ao was a little irritable and planned to stubbornly retreat from the court, the loud shouts of the guards outside the hall made the hall quiet.
Xiang Ao frowned slightly, and Cai Yong also looked displeased. Cai Yong was displeased, worried that Cai Yan would boldly interfere in politics.
"Let the queen in."
After a while, Cai Yan, who had already shown a bit of charm, slowly came to the main hall accompanied by Zhao Xiaoya.
"Concubine, I've seen King Yan, I've seen all the ministers."
Cai Yan saluted, and everyone hurriedly returned the salute.
Cai Yan straightened his clothes slightly, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice with a delicate voice: "Your Majesty, take a concubine!" ”
Xiang Ao had already guessed Cai Yan's thoughts, and looking at the determined and asking eyes, Xiang Ao shook his head helplessly again.
"Please take a concubine to the king!"
With the support of the queen, the ministers have no intention of giving in, and they must let their lord agree to this matter today to be at ease.
Xiang Ao looked at the people in the hall, then helped Cai Yan up, sighed again and said, "This king is approved." ”
Xiang Ao said, sighed again, and then stroked Cai Yan's hair, his expression full of guilt.
The deep affection between Xiang Ao and Cai Yan, the entire Yan Kingdom knew that Xiang Ao's actions at this time did not make the people in the hall dissatisfied. Zhao Xiaoya on the side was a little shy.
"The king is wise!" A group of ministers in the main hall knelt on the ground excitedly and sang praises.
Only when Xiang Ao's position is stable, the merits they have earned with their lives will last forever, and their ambition to benefit the people of the world can be realized.
The matter of concubines has been mentioned for several years, and today Xiang Ao finally agreed, can they not be happy.
"But..."Xiang Ao's face was straight, and he said in a deep voice: "At this time, it will be handed over to the queen, and you can't interfere." ”
"No!"
As long as you promise to take a concubine, who will do it differently? As long as they can accept a concubine and let Xiang Ao give birth to another heir, they can rest assured. As for whether there will be a so-called palace fight, let's talk about it later.
At night, in the palace of King Yan of Yecheng.
"Yan'er, thank you for your hard work."
Xiang Ao hugged Cai Yan's willow waist, stretched out his hand to touch Cai Yan's face, and said softly.
Cai Yan shook his head and looked at Xiang Ao affectionately: "It is Yan'er's greatest blessing to be able to meet her husband in this life." ”
Cai Yan buried his head deep in Xiang Ao's chest, and continued softly: "Yan'er has asked Xiaoya many times, and I want to find someone for Xiaoya, so as not to be lonely for life. But the little girl is unwilling to live or die, does the husband know why? ”
"How do you know?" Xiang Ao rubbed his nose in embarrassment, looking evasive.
Cai Yan lightly hammered Xiang Ao's chest: "I'm still pretending to be stupid." At Xiaoya's age, she should have married and had several children. Isn't it because of her husband who is reluctant to get married? ”
"Ahem..."Xiang Ao coughed awkwardly, not knowing how to answer
。
When he was young, Xiang Ao already knew Xiaoya's thoughts. But Xiang Ao first fell in love with Jiang Yao'er, and then accepted Cai Yan with a little guilt.
originally thought that as long as it was delayed, after Xiaoya was a few years older, she would find someone she liked, but she never thought that this delay would be more than ten years.
Xiaoya has been by Cai Yan's side for more than ten years, but how can Xiang Ao not see the full affection in Xiaoya's eyes. was remembered by such a beautiful woman, no matter how hard-hearted the heroic man was, he had already melted away.
"Since the matter of accepting a concubine is unavoidable, the husband will take this opportunity to take the little girl away, okay?"
Xiang Ao talked about his anger and said softly: "Take it, I am really ashamed of my husband to the little girl." It's just hard work. ”
Cai Yan shook his head and said softly: "It's not hard, with the little girl to share, maybe Yan'er is more relaxed." ”
The two looked at each other, hugged each other, and looked at the bright moon outside the window.
The next day, Cai Yan got up early and went to arrange for the concubine. And Xiang Ao was a dad for a while, and he took his newborn daughter Xiang Hua and came to the study to deal with political affairs.
Xiang Ao became more and more eager to return to the original world, and named Xiang Hua was Xiang Ao's longing for the home planet of the Galactic Empire.
"Father, don't study the battle situation of the division." Xiang Ping made a pot of tea for Xiang Ao and said softly: "Since my father has no thoughts, it is better to go out for a walk." ”
Xiang Ao shook his head, sighed helplessly, beckoned to the maid on the side, and hugged Xiang Hua again.
Xiang Ping waved his hand, asked the maid to retreat, and said with a chuckle: "Father's friendship with his mother can be understood, but after my father leaves with the ministers of the court, Yanguo always needs someone to inherit his father's ambition and benefit the people, right?" ”
"Wouldn't it be better if my father and aunt could give birth to a son and inherit my father's hegemony?"
Zhao Xiaoya and Cai Yan have an excellent relationship, and since Xiang Ping is sensible, all of them have treated Zhao Xiaoya as a confidant's aunt and respected him.
"You!" Xiang Ao shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "A good thing is a good thing, but if your husband marries your aunt and leaves here in the future, won't you take your aunt with you?" ”
"If Xiaoya can give birth to an heir who inherits her husband's hegemony, and your aunt leaves here with us, do you want your aunt to bear the pain of lovesickness alone?"
When Xiang Ping heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head with the same wry smile.
"It's still my father who is thoughtful." Xiang Ping was a little ashamed: "What should I do?" ”
Xiang Ao shook his head helplessly again, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's do it first, and then talk about the concubine." If your aunt can give birth to two or three children, she may be able to slow down when she takes one or two away. ”
Xiang Ping had to nod.
"Oh, yes." Xiang Ping took out a bundle of letters from his arms and said softly: "Father, General Zhao Yun has a letter, Liu Bei has moved." ”
"Liu Bei?" Xiang Ao was puzzled, took the letter and opened it.
"Humph! What a big Liu! Xiang Ao snorted coldly and said slightly angrily: "Liu Bei is planning to go on a northern expedition. ”
"Northern Expedition?" Xiang Ping was slightly stunned, and said in disbelief: "Without Cao Cao taking the lead, Liu Bei would dare to send troops at this time?" ”
Although Liu Bei borrowed the time when he was out of Xianbei for his husband, he almost calmed down the civil strife in Shudi. But Liu Bei and Xiang Ao have a foothold, and they still need external forces. ”
"What does my father mean that Liu Bei wants to borrow his father's hand to transfer the contradictions in Shu?"
Xiang Ao nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Go and summon the general and the left and right captains." ”
Xiang Ping nodded and exited the room.
