In the vast land of China, there is a mysterious country that is still thriving and developing for a long time.

It is located in the southwest of the vast land, so the ancestors who opened up the country named it Zhaonanguo. And now, the throne has been hereditary to the nineteenth generation, Emperor Zhao Xuzhang.

The country of Zhaonan is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has unique natural advantages.

The land here is vast and all-encompassing, and there is an endless stream of caravans traveling to and from Zhaonan and other countries. But it is precisely because of this that those frontier tribes have coveted it.

"Shi Heng, this time thanks to you for leading the troops to quell the rebellion." After listening to Kuang Shiheng's triumphant return, Emperor Long Yan was happy, stood up happily and smiled: "For your great military exploits, I remember it in my heart!" ”

"Thanks to the emperor's promotion, the minister has the honor to serve as the general of the national government. Quelling the rebellion is a matter within the minister's responsibility, and the emperor does not have to worry about it. Kuang Shiheng immediately raised his hand in response.

Hearing this, the smile on the emperor's face showed another point.

He walked in front of Kuang Shiheng, slowly pulled him up, and said earnestly: "Although I and you are kings and ministers, we have a friendship of mutual support. This time, you put down the rebellion in the border areas, and solved the great problem in my heart. I can't reward you enough! ”

"The emperor's grace was mighty, so that the ministers annihilated the enemy army in one fell swoop. Those border people should have submitted to my Zhaonan Kingdom a long time ago. ”

For Kuang Shiheng's words, the emperor was very satisfied. Sitting in the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, what he fears most is that the merit is high and the lord is shaken, and the country is easy to move.

Suddenly, the Emperor said, "I remember that you seem to have only one daughter, right?" ”

"Yes, there is a dog girl under the courtier's knees." Kuang Shiheng replied.

"How's that going to work!" The emperor pretended to be amazed and said, "Without a son, who will you teach your good skills?" Who will inherit you as a general? ”

After hearing this, Kuang Shiheng couldn't help frowning and sighed: "Although the minister is eager to ask for his son, it is also in vain. The minister named the dog girl Kuang Jing, hoping that she would be as successful as a man. ”

"What if there is any achievement? After all, it's not as bloody as a man. ”

The Emperor retorted with a smile, and then said, "I have a suitable candidate by my side. This woman's name is Ye Rao, and she is a poor woman brought back by me when I visited the people privately. If you accept her as a concubine, you can not only give her a home, but also add men to your Kuang Mansion and glorify the lintel. ”

After speaking, the emperor's eyes stared straight at Kuang Shiheng. He was waiting, waiting for Kuang Shiheng to answer in the affirmative.

Facing the emperor's deep eyes, Kuang Shiheng was shocked, and immediately leaned over and refused: "The people around the emperor dare not be used. ”

"Didn't I say that? Although I am a monarch and a minister with you, we have a friendship of mutual support. The emperor raised his hand, motioned for Kuang Shi to weigh up, and then continued.

"You and I are of one mind, and we do not distinguish between each other. This woman should be your reward for fighting on the battlefield, and you must treat others well. Don't put it back and don't say no! ”

Seeing that the emperor was determined to give this woman to himself, Kuang Shiheng could not continue to refute the emperor's face, so he had to respond: "Although the minister is a rough person, he will definitely treat her well." Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

Seeing this, the emperor ordered someone to bring Ye Rao out of the side hall.

I saw that she was wearing a long dress embroidered with gold silk in juansha, and the interlocking waist seal of white jade outlined her figure to the fullest.

The ink-like hair clings to her back, the golden steps move with her steps, and the delicate facial features seem to be embellished on the face.

"Ye Rao has seen the emperor and seen the general." Ye Rao said softly.

The emperor naturally didn't miss the momentary consternation on Kuang Shiheng's face, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, and then the emperor continued: "I have long had the intention of marrying Ye Rao to you, so when I heard the news of your triumphant return, I asked her to freshen up and dress up early in the morning. Look at it, are you still satisfied? ”

After speaking, the emperor also asked Ye Rao to turn around twice, so that Kuang Shiheng could really see it.

With the swing of the skirt sleeves, a faint fragrance quietly spread to the tip of Kuang Shiheng's nose. Aromatic and refreshing.

"Satisfied, very satisfied." In response to the emperor's inquiry, Kuang Shiheng immediately smiled and said: "Thank you, thank the emperor, thank you." ”

"Since you are satisfied, take her back to your general's mansion. It's been quiet lately, so you can rest at home. The emperor patted Kuang Shiheng on the shoulder and said, "I will make her a lady of Yipin, as a way to show your honor." ”

When Kuang Shiheng returned to the General's Mansion, it was already nightfall.

Lanterns hang from the cornices, and the glow reflects the joy of everyone in the house. It is a great honor for the general to put down the rebellion and return to the entire general's mansion.

"Daddy, you're back." Seeing Kuang Shiheng walking in, Kuang Jing immediately stepped forward and said.

The moment he saw Kuang Jing, the emperor's words were like a thorn in Kuang Shiheng's heart. He frowned suddenly, skipped Kuang Jing and walked straight in front of his wife Lu Jinlan.

"The emperor gave her to me as a concubine and personally named her Mrs. Yipin. In the future, you have to take care of her. ”

"Sister, we will be a family from now on. There are still many places that need to be taken care of by my sister in the future, and my sister has thanked my sister here first. Ye Rao saluted respectfully.

Kuang Shiheng's neglect did not make Kuang Jing sullen, she had long been accustomed to her father's indifferent face. But when he mentioned that he was going to take a concubine, Kuang Jing's calm heart couldn't help but ripple.

"That's nature." Lu Jinlan pulled the corners of her mouth with difficulty, and then responded.

The light in her eyes dimmed in an instant, and the loneliness that slipped from the corners of her eyes could not hide her loneliness, and the originally lively atmosphere instantly quieted down.

At the dinner, Kuang Shiheng couldn't stop serving Ye Rao vegetables. Whenever he mentioned the war in the field, Ye Rao always listened attentively, and clapped his hands from time to time, which made Kuang Shiheng very happy.

Although his wife is virtuous, he always feels that there is something missing. Ye Rao's arrival seemed to ignite Kuang Shiheng's heart again and filled the emptiness in his heart.

"Rao'er, since you are my concubine, you should fulfill your duty. You have to pay more attention to this matter of prolonging the heirs. Kuang Shiheng held Ye Rao's hand and said softly with soft eyes.

"Yes, although my sister's charm still exists, after all, she is old and inconvenient to have children. The concubine knows that she has a heavy responsibility, and she will definitely not relax. After speaking, Ye Rao raised her eyebrows and glanced at Lu Jinlan, and then clenched Kuang Shiheng's hand tightly.

Ye Rao's frown and frown all show her honor. Although she is a concubine, she has been called Mrs. Yipin, and she has also been favored by Kuang Shiheng.

She is asserting her sovereignty and declaring that she is the real general's wife.

Looking at Ye Rao's provocative expression, Lu Jinlan knew that Ye Rao was laughing at herself, but she was powerless to refute it. She narrowed her eyes and held the glass cup in her hand tightly, eager to crush it.

Seeing Ye Rao's bully mother when she first came, Kuang Jing couldn't help but laugh and said: "No matter how young my aunt is, she is also a concubine." Since it is a concubine, this dignity and humility should also be understood. Why does my aunt speak so high and low, and it makes people listen to it so unpleasantly! ”

As soon as the words fell, Kuang Shiheng's brows couldn't help frowning a little. He scolded sternly: "You can understand the principle of order between the young and the old!" If you are a man, will I still worry about the heirs? ”

Without waiting for Kuang Jing to speak, Ye Rao preemptively said, "Why is the general worried about this? If you work hard now, you will surely be able to blossom and bear fruit. ”

Ye Rao's tender eyes stared at Kuang Shiheng, and he seemed to be drunk in the spring breeze, rippling endlessly. Instead, he said to Lu Jinlan: "In the future, there will be no need to pick up the wind and wash the dust, you can eat this dinner by yourself!" After speaking, he picked up Ye Rao and walked straight to the house.

Seeing the two of them enter the house, Kuang Jing turned her head to Lu Jinlan and said, "You are the main room, you can't tolerate her without saying a word." ”

Hearing this, Lu Jinlan seemed to wake up like a dream, and she said to Kuang Jing in a daze: "You are the only support of your mother, and your mother can only count on you now." In the future, you will definitely practice martial arts diligently to please your father. ”

But does that really please him? Kuang Jing asked herself over and over again, she practiced hard every day, and never had a moment of slackness, but she never changed his eyes once!

At this time, the starlight faded, and the dark night slanted down, Kuang Jing vaguely felt that the days ahead would be full of turmoil.
