The three hundred and second round of the circle fork

"You don't understand that?"

Mi Zhen put down the wine glass in her hand and counted it to Lu Ren: "Don't you think that the current Xiao Mi is similar to me at that time?" It's just that I'm bold, my eldest brother is very interesting, and we have a very close relationship with each other, so things are just a matter of course, and there is nothing to worry about. But Xiao Mi, the difference between her and me is here, you have your worries and have been dragging it on like this, Xiao Mi also has concerns, and her clan has been chasing her, of course her mood is not good. ”

"Seriously, the breadth and influence of our current business routes in Yizhou are eye-catching. Not only in the Jiangdong regions, but even along the Jiangbei coast and in Jingxiang County, those who are further away have even traveled into Sichuan. Not only that, but what is your current status? A state pastor who is serious! ”

Speaking of this, Mi Zhen smiled, as if she was laughing at the old lady of the Zhen family: "Xiao Mi told me, some time ago, when you officially got the imperial edict, the old lady of the Zhen family was stunned and regretted, saying why did you reprimand you like that when I first met you in Jingzhou, so that you couldn't save face, so that you couldn't marry Xiao Mi directly." I can only say now that the old lady of the Zhen family is too short-sighted, where is it like me and my eldest brother? ”

When Lu Ren was in Xiangyang, Mi Zhu forced Lu Ren to marry Mi Zhen, but there were actually some other factors in it. What is more obvious is the situation at that time, Liu Bei is still just sending people under the fence, and the foundation of the Mi clan in Xuzhou has been lost, and Mi Zhu, who is the suzerain of the Mi clan, is of course not sure whether Liu Bei can really turn over.

In this uncertain situation, Lu Ren told Mi Zhu some of his plans, the most important thing is that Lu Ren has been implementing it step by step and has achieved some results, Mi Zhu simply let it go, and simply let Lu Ren marry Mi Zhen. Mi Zhu believes that as long as Lu Ren succeeds, then it is certain that the Mi clan will set up another branch in Yizhou. And if one day Liu Bei is completely defeated and Mi Zhu's Mi clan branch loses its support, Mi Zhu will consider going to Yizhou Mi Clan, which can be regarded as leaving a way out for his own clan.

All in all, trying to preserve the Mi clan is the fundamental purpose of Mi Zhu. It's just that Lu Ren's development in Yizhou after that, as well as Mi Zhu's development under Liu Bei, these two aspects of development completely exceeded Mi Zhu's expectations. Liu Bei benefited from Lu Ren's proposal and had already re-established his power in Jingzhou, just waiting for Liu Biao's death to trigger a power struggle in Jingzhou to obtain Jingzhou, and even Mi Zhu could gain a firm foothold.

At this time, Liu Bei was due to various factors, such as Cai Mao's group began to deliberately restrict Jingzhou's original support and supply to Liu Bei, and there was a big problem in the supply of military supplies, and there was a big gap in all kinds of military supplies that could not be filled in time. Liu Bei has made a lot of money in the past few years by relying on the "heavy merchant" strategy proposed by Lu Ren, but now he has money and can't buy what he wants.

Relying on its own production alone and can't keep up, as Liu Bei's group of military purchasers, Mi Zhu has long been anxious, accidentally went to Hebei when he heard that Yizhou sold a large number of military supplies to Cao Cao, but Lu Ren seems to ignore Liu Bei's side, although he still maintains business contacts, but they are mainly civilian materials and general commercial goods, Liu Bei Group urgently needs all kinds of military supplies has not provided anything, and Mi Zhu has ignored the military orders proposed by Mi Zhu several times.

Because of these things, Mi Zhu began to worry that it would affect Liu Bei's trust in him. Of course, this trust is not the trust in the relationship between the monarch and the minister, but the degree of trust in Mi Zhu's ability to do things. Mi Zhu is also a person who wants to make a difference, and he doesn't want to be like before, Liu Bei respects him more than enough but does not appoint him enough, and he mixes around and becomes a person who eats idle food.

Mi Zhu thought about it, so he sent someone to Yizhou with the fleet to come forward directly to Mi Zhen, because now he wanted to complete Liu Bei's task and relied on Lu Ren. Mi Zhen looked for Lu Ren after receiving the news, and Lu Ren also responded to Mi Zhu's request to a certain extent. After all, the Battle of Chibi is about to start, and Liu Bei also needs some corresponding help, otherwise it will have a bad impact on Lu Ren's own plan.

In all fairness, in the long run, if Mi Zhu's side can get Lu Ren's support at this time, it will completely establish Mi's position as the number one merchant in Liu Bei's group, and in turn, if Liu Bei can obtain the necessary military supplies at this critical time, it will play a pivotal role in the plan to seize Jingzhou as a base in the future.

Liu and Mi stand from this point of view, sharing honor and disgrace. For Lu Ren, it is also very helpful to grasp this opportunity to integrate all kinds of products from Yizhou into Liu Bei's group, which plays a huge role in his own plan to vigorously promote industry and commerce, and then gradually influence people's ideas and concepts.

Also, assuming that Liu Bei succeeds in entering Shu as in history, the Mi clan is likely to become the commercial leader in the central Shu region, and the Lu clan is now a commercial giant in the world. This kind of marriage relationship between the two families, whether in the political field or the people, its influence should not be underestimated, not to mention that the marriage between the two clans can even monopolize many commercial and trade affairs between Shu and Wu, and hold the economic lifeline of the two places in their hands. The most important thing is that once this step is achieved, if the people in power are not used to moving these two clans, they must also consider whether they have the ability to bear the consequences.

It's just that these things must be handled by Lu Ren's white-collar secretary Zhen Mi, and the little thing in Lu Ren's heart, Zhen Mi can't know at all, she only knows that as soon as she sees Mi Zhu's request, Lu Ren will immediately do it, and she will naturally think of herself, as well as the unclear and incomprehensible relationship between her own clan and Lu Ren, and Lu Ren is always dragging it out like this, of course her mood will be quite depressed, and she will become a little lukewarm to Lu Ren.

"Let's find a chance to talk to Xiao Mi more. Besides, it's not a problem for you to drag on like this all the time. Didn't you say you had to go with the flow and get things done when the right opportunity arose? Now that she has such a petty temper and refuses to follow you, where is your chance? ”

Lu Ren said speechlessly: "Okay, okay, I'll find an excuse to pull her out and accompany me more when I turn around." I said, if it really doesn't work, do you think I'm going to have a drunk sex with her? ”

Mi Zhen slapped it with a palm and scolded: "You want to die!" You don't want your face, we still want it! What a bad idea! ”

――――――――――――――――――――

It's not really difficult to pull Zhen Mi out, but the next day, Lu Ren used the excuse of patrolling the city and called Zhen Mi to his side, who let Zhen Mi be Lu Ren's white-collar secretary?

While walking, watching and chatting, the topic gradually turned to the matter between the two. And as soon as she mentioned these, Zhen Mi smiled very strangely and said: "Miss Ben doesn't look bad, and she has a family fortune of tens of millions, so I didn't want to marry anyone, but when I really wanted to marry, I couldn't get married, so it was really better to die." ”

Saying that, Zhen Mi turned his head to Lu Ren: "I am already twenty-five years old this year, and in a few years, I will be old." Will you marry me, sir? At that time, you told me to go with the flow and then find a suitable opportunity to make everyone's face reasonable, but after so long in a blink of an eye, you ...... Alas! ”

Lu Ren was dumbfounded, and only after a long time did he smile dryly: "Listening to the tone of what you said, it reminds me of the past." If you want me to say, where are you talking about marriage? In my opinion, it is not much different from bargaining with buying and selling utensils. ”

Zhen Mi shrugged her shoulders and said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, I'm twenty-five years old, and if I don't marry again, I'm afraid that no one will really want it." Now only when I'm inserting the label at half price, half selling and half free. I don't expect my husband to be as good to me as he is to my sisters, but I just ask you to come to me when you think of me, at least, so that I can be justified when I am with you like now, and if you bother me, I can live in my own house like Xiaozhen...... Sir, you should know what I mean. I don't covet anything, I don't ask for anything, but you have to give me an account to my clan. ”

This time, even Lu Ren was a little helpless, but Zhen Mi pushed Lu Ren and said, "Sir, you can make your own decision." In fact, as a prince of a town, no one blames you for having a few more wives and concubines. ”

Lu Ren said: "Marry it, marry it, it's not that I can't afford to raise it." It's just that I'm so dizzy right now, I can't think of a way to ......"

Zhen Mi looked at Lu Ren for a long time, frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "Forget it...... It was getting late, I was a little tired, and I suddenly wanted to drink, and I wanted to find a place to get drunk. ”

After speaking, Zhen Mi ignored Lu Ren and walked forward by herself. And Lu Ren thought hard for a long time, and his mind was quickly thinking about the soap operas he had watched, wanting to see if he could borrow one or two tricks. When I looked up again, I saw Zhen Mi's slender and beautiful but lonely pretty shadow...... Well, that seductive body curve actually made a certain part of Lu Ren stand up shamelessly.

In fact, this is also a normal reaction that a normal male creature will have. You must know that since Lu Ren gave birth to Lu Qin and Diao Chan gave birth to Lu Yun, these two ladies have not allowed Lu Ren to touch them for most of the year, first, because the children have to be taken care of, and the other is because the body needs to be recuperated. And Lu Ren is also very busy and tired because he is usually very busy, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with a little less nightlife.

It wasn't until Mi Zhen came back this time and had a fierce quarrel with Lu Ren for so many nights that Lu Ren's desires/desires in a certain way were re-aroused. Now that he saw Zhen Mi's seductive posture again, if Lu Ren hadn't reacted at all...... Then he can go to the palace.

As soon as desire/desire is aroused, there will naturally be more ideas. Suddenly, Lu Ren's mind flashed, and he rushed forward a few steps to catch up with Zhen Mi, and then looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then whispered to Zhen Mi: "Since you are in a hurry to deliver to your door, I have no reason not to, right?" Otherwise, how about you cooperate with me in a play? ”

"Acting!?" (To be continued.) )
