In the blink of an eye, the scuffle between the warlords has ended, and Yuan Shao successfully annexed Gongsun Zan and became the most powerful local power in the north.

And Yuan Shu occupies the Yangzhou area, and the number of mercenaries is as high as more than 200,000, and he vaguely has the heart of being the emperor.

"Something to start, nothing to retreat from, ha" Liu Xie because he guarded the Song capital for days, which caused his own energy consumption to be too great, so he often dozed off when he went to the court.

When the ministers in the palace saw that Liu Xie was not energetic, they were all worried about his physical health, and they thought it was overindulgence.

Yang Biao looked at Liu Xie worriedly, for fear that the other party would be tired: "Holy Lord, you should pay attention to rest, there are some chores that can be handed over to others." ”

"Aiqing, rest assured, I have my own measure." Liu Xie was afraid that telling the news of the nobleman's pregnancy would attract the bad intentions of those thieves, so he chose to take care of Song Du in person.

Guo Yan stood up and walked in front of Liu Xie: "The minister has a book, according to the news sent by the spies, Ma Teng is gathering troops and wants to attack Chang'an. ”

"Then let's explore again!" Liu Xie observed Guo Yan's expression, anyway, the decision was in their hands, and asking for their own opinions was just acting.

Guo Yan thought to himself that even if he really wanted to fight, he would have to wait until the end of the New Year before he could do it, and Liu Xie's answer was very reasonable.

After thinking about it, Guo Yan nodded and said: "Obey the holy order, it's just next year's military expenses, and you have to worry about the saint." ”

Chang'an City is now only in but not out, and the sources of military supplies are all robbed, or spent money to buy from other states, resulting in a huge amount of funds consumed, and the 50,000 gold can only last until the end of the year.

"Got it!" Although Liu Xie was reluctant in his heart, he didn't dare to say it in front of Guo Yan, after all, he only had 300 personal guards. Fighting for strength is simply looking for death.

Downwards and backwards. Li Dao did not return to the barracks. Instead, when no one was paying attention, he walked in the direction of the harem.

When the guards saw that the person who came was Li Dao, they didn't deliberately stop him, just with his current status, there was no problem if he wanted to play noble.

Chen Su had been waiting at the gate of the harem, and when he saw Li Dao coming down from the court, he immediately stepped forward and knelt on the ground, waiting for the other party's next instructions.

Li Wei looked at Chen Xu. There was a **** in his eyes: "I don't see that you still have a little appearance, it seems that Niangniang is good to you, and the medicines used for you are all of the best quality." ”

Chen Su is actually not ugly, on the contrary, he has some appearance, and after long-term recuperation in the palace, he has returned to the state before the crucifixion.

"It's all General Li's cultivation." As soon as Chen Xu saw Li Dao, he felt a pain in his lower body, thinking that he had been tortured for a long time, which caused him to have a conditioned reflex.

"Smack!" The corners of Li Wei's mouth raised, and he slapped Chen Xu in the face. Satisfy his abusive mentality.

"Why did General Woo beat me again?" Chen Xu covered his face and cried bitterly, his face was already intact. Another slap print.

Li Dao scolded with a smile: "Slut, General Ben is reminding you that a dog is always a dog, even if it looks good, it is also a female dog ridden by 10,000 people." ”

Chen Xu sobbed: "The general is right, the is willing to be your and be a good." ”

Human dignity turned into nothingness before the threat of death, and Chen Xu was willing to sell everything he had in order to survive in the troubled times.

Li Wei nodded with satisfaction: ", General Ben asked you, has the queen mother been doing anything recently?" ”

Chen Su shook his head and said: "The cheap maid has been monitoring Niangniang, and Niangniang has nothing else unusual except for embroidering a purse. ”

Li Wei was shocked, could she really blame Cao Ming, she really wanted to be good with herself.

"You've done a great job, it's your gold." Li Dao took out a piece of gold and threw it in front of the other party.

"General Xie, do you still need me to serve tonight?" Chen Xu thought that he still wanted people to serve, so he would give himself so much gold.

Li Wei just wanted to agree to Chen Xu's words, but when he thought that she had been played with by a dog, he felt a wave of nausea in his heart.

Thinking of this, Li Dao frowned: "Get out!" You are such a rotten body, you won't even touch a dog. ”

"No!" Chen Xu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, picked up the gold and left silently, she only hoped that such a miserable life would end sooner.

At this time, Ma Qiu was practicing in the courtyard of Jiaofang Palace, and the palace maids were all stopping to watch, so they almost shouted and cheered for him.

Chen Xu covered his face and walked in from the gate of the courtyard, just as everyone's eyes were on Ma Qiu, and no one noticed her abnormality.

Pushing open the door of the Jiaofang Palace, Chen Xu ushered in Cao Ming's questioning gaze, after all, making a mess will definitely make people suspicious.

"What did you do?" Cao Ming always felt that there was something wrong with Chen Xu, when she met her for the first time, she always smiled and talked a lot, but now she has become silent, even if she has experienced some tragedies, she should not have a sudden change in personality.

Chen Xu let go of his hand, revealing the mark on his face: "The slave maid just went to relieve herself, but she collided with someone else and was slapped in the face." ”

Cao Ming thought for a while and didn't find anything suspicious: "Pay more attention next time, the people in the palace are difficult to serve, especially those nobles." ”

"Xie Niangniang cares." Chen Xu felt ashamed, so he had to lower his head and not look at Cao Ming, so as not to coincide with the other party's gaze and be seen by the other party.

Cao Ming couldn't guess Chen Su, so she could only enlighten her: "If you have something in your heart, just tell me, don't hide it in your heart, it's easy to get sick." ”

Chen Xu rolled his eyes and whispered: "Since Niangniang allowed it, the slave maid said that the slave maid likes Ma Gonggong." ”

"Smack!" Cao Ming was so angry that he slapped the wooden case hard, thinking that he really couldn't understand these women, Ma Qiu was not a man who looked better than Pan An, and the palace maids actually liked him.

Cao Ming still has a lot of masculine style, and when she saw that Ma Qiu attracted the girls, she felt a little unhappy in her heart, and even wanted to rush up and beat him a few times.

Chen Su saw that Cao Ming was angry, and immediately explained: "The maid is just joking, if the maid feels that it is undignified, please punish the slave maid." ”

Chen Xu wanted to seduce Ma Qiu openly, but she didn't expect Cao Ming to be angry because of this, maybe she also liked the eunuch.

In ancient times, there were indeed concubines who favored eunuchs, but Chen Xu definitely couldn't imagine that Cao Ming was angry because the sisters were taken away.

"Mother, the little one is back!" Ma Qiu wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Cao Ming with a ruddy face.

Cao Ming snorted coldly, and said with jealousy: "Yo, Young Master Ma has come back from practice, and the taste of being watched by beautiful women must be very good." ”

Ma Qiu was surprised, and then said with joy on his face: "If Niangniang doesn't like it, I won't practice in the future." ”

Ma Qiu thought that Cao Ming was jealous, and he couldn't imagine that after many days of hard work, he finally won back the other party's heart.

"It's okay to practice, cover your face!" Cao Ming came up with a clever trick, as long as Ma Qiu practiced with his face covered, those girls would definitely get bored of watching it, and there would be no one to watch at that time. (To be continued.) )

PS: You don't have to worry about the problem of future generations, Cao Ming can pass on the mantle to her sisters, and the old Cao family is not short of talents.
