Chapter 386: Greed can't chew too much
Liu Xin was basically sure that his guess was not far from ten, and couldn't help but smile and ask, "So do you hope that this thing is true or false?" ”
Such a topic was very perverse in those days. But Liu Xin is from a later life, don't say that he originally had this idea, even if he didn't have this idea, he wouldn't feel that it was too inappropriate. And Zhu Rong is just a barbarian woman with a big grin, and there is no feudal orthodoxy in her head. So the two of them openly discussed it on the ox cart.
In response to Liu Xin's rhetorical question, Zhu Rong lowered his head and thought about it, and said for a while: "I hope this is both true and false." Still, whether it's true or not, I'll be happy. ”
This answer was unexpected by Liu Xin, and she couldn't help asking, "Why?" ”
Zhu Rong said with a serious face: "Brother, I believe that if you become the emperor, all the people in the world can live a good life." ”
Liu Xin laughed and said, "Rong'er, do you know how big the world is?" ”
Zhu Rong replied without thinking: "Who doesn't know this, isn't it the Thirteen Prefectures." ”
Liu Xin gently hugged her slender waist and said with a smile: "There are not only these thirteen states in the world, but also the vast grassland, the vast desert, and the endless ocean, and there are many people living on the grassland, in the desert, and on the other side of the ocean. Not to mention the thirteen states of Dahan, even the people of Si, Jing, Yi, and Liang have not yet solved the problem of food and clothing, and it is not easy to let the people of the world live a good life! ”
Zhu Rong straightened his somewhat messy hairline, and said casually: "That's not easy, Brother You've got so many soldiers under your command, can't you just take down all the other places." ”
"You say you're going to fight? This involves the deployment of troops, the transportation of grain and grass, clothing and equipment, the pacification of the people, and the compensation of the wounded soldiers. Or do you want to say that if I don't want to be the emperor at all, why are you also happy? ”
Although his territory is getting bigger and bigger, and his army is almost victorious, Liu Xin is not arrogant enough to think that he can immediately launch a war to unify the world. In history, Cao Cao had two thirds of the world, and in the end it only formed a three-legged situation, not to mention that the northern states with the largest population and the most developed economy have not yet been able to control their own hands, and the once prosperous division is under the ravages of Dong Zhuo, and there is only an empty shelf left.
Zhu Rong's pretty face flushed slightly, and he said softly: "If Brother doesn't become the emperor, that's not bad." At that time, Brother Ah will not have to fight in the north and south, and Brother and I will be able to be together every day. ”
Liu Xin didn't expect this girl to dare to think about it, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "If you really want that, can you afford it?" ”
The flush on Zhu Rong's face became even more thrilling, and he said coquettishly: "Brother, where do you want to go." People say that when the time comes, you can accompany them to hunt and go shopping. ”
Liu Xin's hand pinched her plump buttocks, and scolded with a smile: "You ghost girl, do you still want to eat the master's food?" I'm with you all day, what about the ladies. ”
Zhu Rong held back the pain, pursed his lips, and said aggrievedly: "People just want to be with you more, not ...... Hmmm......"
Liu Xin rubbed it there, silky and elastic, and while he enjoyed this wonderful feeling, he also provoked Zhu Rong to let out a soft snort. Liu Xin caressed for a while, and said with a smile: "Are these things not what your father told you?" ”
Although Zhu Rong is just a barbarian woman, she has been paying attention to reading some Han classics since three years ago, and she also knows that it is very taboo for relatives to interfere in politics in the Han royal family. ”
Liu Xin laughed and said, "Don't be funny, you can guess this, then you are really amazing." ”
Zhu Rong said unconvinced: "Why can't I guess, after you conquered Chang'an, you have nothing to take from your property, and women have nothing to do, isn't this what the book says about their ambitions?" ”
Liu Xin couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately looked at Zhu Rong with admiration, and said, "It turns out that you still know this." However, how do you know that when I was in Chang'an, I didn't loot property and pamper women? ”
Zhu Rong said proudly: "Hmph, I naturally have eyeliner." ”
"There are only a few people who came back from Chang'an with me, and I haven't stayed in Xiangyang for many days, and they are all tight-lipped people, and they will never chew their tongues." Liu Xin pondered for a moment and said, "I understand, it must be those four little girls talking nonsense." Did you give them something? ”
Except for the four little maids, Liu Xin couldn't think of anyone else who would tell Zhu Rong these things. The maids of these big families like to spread some gossip the most, of course, if Zhu Rong doesn't give them some small favors, they won't say it casually. However, because of this, it is even more terrifying, Zhu Rong can buy them, and others can also buy them. Liu Xin took them with her, but she just liked that they were quite measured in their dealings with people, but she didn't think about whether they would leak secrets. At this time, he had secretly made up his mind that he must keep his eyes open for the people around him in the future, but these four little maids could no longer stay in the mansion. These four little maids would never have imagined it, just because of a few more words, their fate has changed since then, of course, whether the ending is good or bad, no one can say now.
Zhu Rong saw Liu Xin's uncertain eyes on his face, and couldn't help but ask worriedly: "Brother, you don't want to punish the four of them, do you, in fact, ......?"
Liu Xin smiled and interrupted her and said, "I know that it is only one of them who revealed the news to you, but I have no intention of punishing them. They are not too old, but they are not too young, and it is time to find them a mother-in-law. ”
The ox cart is indeed stable, but the speed of this movement is really flattering, before you know it's noon, Liu Xin lifted the curtain and saw that there were still two or three miles away from Kecheng, and couldn't help but sigh.
Zhu Rong hurriedly asked, "Brother, are you uncomfortable?" ”
Liu Xin waved his hand and said, "It's okay." Rong'er, you tell everyone, let's not go into the city, just rest here for a while, eat something, and continue on our way. Let them bring some pen and paper, and I'll write a letter to Madame. ”
He tried to exercise twice just now, and felt that there should be no problem with riding a horse, and couldn't help but be a little suspicious, Zhu Rong insisted on letting himself sit in this slow ox cart, just to delay time, so that he could be alone with him for a longer time. Of course, Liu Xin couldn't say anything about Zhu Rong's small abacus, so he had to adjust the original plan slightly.
Cai Yong is a great calligrapher, with a family history, and Cai Yan's characters are naturally quite beautiful. Liu Xin already has a little calligraphy foundation, and after being with Cai Yan for a long time, there has been a little improvement in the level of calligraphy, and the use of this brush does not feel so awkward.
When Liu Xin wrote the letter, she didn't let Zhu Rong avoid it, and let her watch from the side.
Zhu Rong watched it for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "Brother, what are you writing here?" ”
Liu Xin "brushed and brushed", quickly finished writing the last few strange symbols, put down the pen, and said with a smile: "This is the Book of Heaven, of course you can't understand it." ”
It turned out that Liu Xin's letter was written in simplified Chinese with calligraphy, and of course Zhu Rong didn't know it. And the last line of words written by Liu Xin was still in English, which fell in Zhu Rong's eyes, just like the charm drawn by a Taoist priest, she was dumbfounded, and said for a while: "What a book from heaven!" So who can read it? ”
"Madame, of course." Liu Xin folded the letter and instructed: "Someone, arrange an expedited eight hundred miles, and send this letter to Xiangyang immediately!" ”
Zhu Rong's eyes were full of little stars, and he said with a look of adoration: "I didn't expect Mrs. to be so powerful, even the Book of Heaven can be recognized, Brother, I also want to learn!" ”
Liu Xin pinched her Yao nose fiercely and said, "Learn from your size, it's good to practice the kung fu I taught you well, don't you understand the truth of being greedy and chewing too much?" Go and call Feng Lie. ”
Zhu Rong got out of the car slowly, and muttered in a low voice: "Hmph, there are so many women in the family, I think you are greedy and can't chew too much!" ”
It's just that, as soon as he finished speaking, thinking of the lingering ecstasy of those two nights, Zhu Rong's face couldn't help but flush slightly, his "strong" body couldn't withstand his toss, and he didn't know how those delicate ladies survived, it seemed that he could chew it up if he had a few more.
Where did Liu Xin know what nonsense she was thinking, and when Feng Lie came closer, he hurriedly told him a few words, asking him to rush back to Xiangyang to heal first, although the weather has turned cooler now, and the wound is not as easy to infect as in summer, but the medical conditions here are not as good as the medical school in Xiangyang after all, and the longer you drag on the road, the greater the danger.
The speed of this ox cart is really not fast, and it could have reached the ferry port on the other side of Jiangling in three days, but now it has not reached Wuling City after walking for five whole days. Suddenly, several horses in front of me came galloping, and the riders on the horses were all dressed in red narrow-sleeved arrow robes, with two red pennants on their backs. The soldiers in front saw it from a distance and knew that it was a meteor fast horse that transmitted urgent military information, so they moved out of the way one after another, revealing the middle road.
The knight on the horse came to the ox cart, and before the horse could rein in its hooves, he jumped off his horse, fell on one knee, and said in a loud voice: "Report! Enlighten the lord, Xiangyang sent urgent documents! ”
From Xiangyang City to here, at a normal pace, it will take at least five days. But these meteor fast horses that transmit military information are changed people and horses, day and night, and five days is enough time to go back and forth. Therefore, Liu Xin didn't need to look at it, and he could guess that it must be Ma Yun's reply.
Although Liu Xin felt that he had fully recovered, Zhu Rong still treated him like a patient, and said repeatedly: "Brother, you lie down and don't move, I'll help you get it." ”
Liu Xin shook his head helplessly, and secretly made up his mind that when he arrived at the Wuling Ferry, he must change to a fast boat, and all the time could be delayed along the way.
