Chapter 113: Shen Mushi's Private Residence
"At the beginning of the sunny day after the rain, you can also see the four prefectures and thirty-two counties in the eleven prefectures of Chu and Wei, scattered on the plain like agate, which is very beautiful. This is our Chu Wei, the prosperous and splendid Chu Wei. β
Shen Mushi's tone was quite proud, and he raised his arm flat and drew out a half-circle.
Under the golden sun, the man stood in a snow-white robe, and the soft sunlight sprinkled all over his body reflected his handsome face like a fairy.
Both turned their heads to stare at it, as if the person in front of them would ride the wind, and subconsciously stretched out his hand around his waist and leaned softly.
"In the future, I want Chu Wei to become the largest country in the world, conquer North Vietnam in the north, attack Dali in the south, and Sinasid."
Shen Mushi looked up at the sky, and the flame-like sky showed that there would be a war burning in the future.
"Do you have to fight? It's good for us Chu Wei to live a stable life, can't we not fight? β
Shuangshuang still doesn't quite understand a man's ambitions, she is just a woman, she doesn't want anything, as long as her family and husband are safe.
"Shuangshuang, do you know how much effort it took to get to where we are today in today's peaceful and prosperous world? There are conquests every year, and I don't offend anyone, but people offend me. The Song Chengcheng you saw in the restaurant today, how could they simply come to Chu Wei to play? Before dominating the world, this peaceful and prosperous era was just a mirage, a moment of smoke, only when the people from all over the world returned to one can they truly live in peace and avoid the poison of war. β
"But Your Highness, the war itself will kill a lot of people, and the people will also be in pain!"
Both asked, puzzled.
"In the law of using soldiers, the country is the first, and the country is secondary; The army is the first, and the broken army is second; The brigade is the first, and the broken brigade is second; The pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; Wu is the first, and Wu is second. Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good who is not good, the soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good who are good. β
Shen Mushi looked down at Shuangshuang and said with a chuckle.
"I don't know the art of war."
Shuangshuang sighed.
"It doesn't matter, you just have to remember that I will unify the countries with the least number of troops, unless ........."
Shen Mushi didn't say any more.
The scheming was dark, and he didn't want to stain his ears.
When the two of them walked along the winding mountain path and arrived at the door of the dark gray mansion hung with red lanterns, it was already a sparse moon, and the whole Qi Mountain was silent, dyed with a light silver-white moonlight.
"Welcome home."
There were two rows of guards standing in front of the mansion, and more than a dozen people were neatly arranged, all of whom respectfully knelt down and saluted Shen Mushi.
"Miss Lu, welcome to Duke Shen's mansion."
Shen Mushi turned over and dismounted, and stretched out his hand to Shuangshuang with a light smile.
The little woman was obediently carried to the ground by him, looking a little confused.
The Shen Mansion is built next to the mountain, its pattern is not as square as other mansions, but along the mountain up the zigzag and deep, the whole mansion is gray and simple, hidden in the forest, extremely low-key.
The eaves of the mansion are protruding, and the black tile heavy eaves vaguely carry a sense of majesty and oppression, and outsiders will never be able to see the true identity of the head of the family.
The sixteen people kneeling at the door were all Shen Mushi's secret guards, after welcoming the lord into the mansion, he covered the candle flame in the lantern, and the dark heavy cypress door was once again covered solidly, without a trace of light, even if someone bypassed countless eyeliners and mistakenly entered the Shen Mansion, they would be scared away by the cold of the forest revealed by this mysterious house.
If you look at Qi Mountain from Shangjing, the Shen Mansion is hidden in the heavy mountains, just like the ink stone dissolves in a darkness, and outsiders can't find that there is such an atmospheric mansion hidden in the original mountain.
After entering the mansion, Shuangshuang looked around and found that there were few minions, only a total of eight servants, all of whom were family members or apprentices of the secret guards.
After all the subordinates retreated, Shuangshuang could no longer hold back his curiosity and asked seriously: "Shen Gongzi, how many secrets do you still have not told me?" β
"Miss Lu is talking about your sweetheart Shen Gongzi?"
Shen Mushi smiled indifferently, picked up the cloisonnΓ© glazed porcelain cup, and took a sip of the first batch of Biluochun picked from the South Wind Country in the New Year.
"Still playing! In addition to the huge Shangjing General Dart Bureau, there are more than 100 dart bureaus in various places, and if there are more than 100 dart masters like the general dart bureau, you have more than 10,000 private soldiers alone! You have also set up Wuyue Academies in various places, and even my three cousins went to Jiangnan to seek teachers when they were young, but they were unexpectedly refused, which is obviously used to cultivate the children of the poor family, and they will be used by you in the future! And also! With so much money sent to the Shen Mansion, who are the people and horses to raise? β
Both glared at Shen Mushi and forced him to confess to himself.
Shen Mushi raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.
I didn't expect the little fool to be not stupid this time, he actually analyzed it so thoroughly, not bad, yes, and teachable.
Reaching out and pinching the woman's smooth little face, Shen Mushi joked rather scoundrelly:
"Shen Gongzi is secretly cultivating his own people, doesn't Miss Lu see it very clearly? Otherwise, how many people does Miss Lu think the prince can really trust and call today? In case of a big national disaster, how many silver taels or so does the East Palace have? Besides, Lu Chexi of the Lu family is the prime minister, Lu Rufeng is the master of the first product and Situ, Lu Ruzhou is the commander of the hussars, the family is big, and he can dominate one side by himself, so why waste Shen Gongzi's silver taels? β
"Big liar! I love to bully people! You clearly don't trust the Lu family! In vain, our whole family's allegiance to Chu Wei is a loyal martyr! Are you proud to see that I'm worried and anxious? β
Shuangshuang is the most taboo for others to arrange their father and the Lu family, and they are not allowed to say a bad word, even Shen Mushi.
The temper tantrum came as soon as she said it, and the little woman got up and took out an ink-colored purse from her waist and threw it at Shen Mushi angrily.
Shen Mushi saw that the little wild cat was fried again, and he didn't even bother to pick up the silver, so he hurriedly walked to the side and hugged her and kept coaxing.
Finally smoothed the tantrum of the little wild cat, bent down to pick up the purse on the ground, and stuffed the silver into the palms of Shuangshuang's hands.
Fingers caressed her white cheeks, and the man suppressed his voice and persuaded: "Now I naturally believe in the loyalty of the Lu family, after all, the daughter of the Lu family is betting on the crown prince to be the crown princess, isn't it?" Moreover, whenever I was in trouble, you ran back and forth to work for me, and for a while I was moved to tears, and suddenly forgot to tell you the truth. β
"Hmph, you've said everything. You pretend to be poor and even hide it from me, I'm afraid that people in the whole world don't know that the prince is a giant on the rich side, right? β
Shuangshuang was a little embarrassed to be stared at by the man so directly.
Don't look over the shy, look around at the decoration of the house to divert your attention.
Not to mention, the furnishings of this Shen Mansion are different from the golden splendor of the East Palace, and most of them are simple.
There are no pillars in the hall, there are no caissons, even the window lattices are only well-shaped lattice windows without carvings, and the only valuable thing is that there are a few glass lamps hanging on the walls, which are still used for lighting.
After a closer look, the practicality of the whole mansion is better than the useless gorgeous and rich, and the style is solemn and remarkable.
"Actually, it's a copycat."
Shen Mushi spoke coldly.
"Specialized in robbing money and sex."
"Hmm......"
Shuangshuang turned his head to look at the man standing in front of him.
Shen Mushi supported the armrests of the Taishi chair with both hands, and the whole person was suspended in the air to surround him, and under the dim glass lamp, his figure was even taller, and he looked stronger and more domineering than usual.
"You.......... You're standing out of the way...... Cover....... Cover the light......"
Shuangshuang reached out and pushed Shen Mushi's arm, which was a little unnatural.
The man did not move, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and a pair of deep pool-like eyes looked deeply at him, and there was a faint dark light flowing in his eyes, and her heart was beating violently.
"Miss Lu strayed into the cottage, why didn't she panic at all? Aren't you afraid that Shen Gongzi has evil thoughts in his heart? Shen Mushi lowered his body, and a familiar musky scent brushed on his cheeks with his breath.
"Still, because Miss Lu has liked Shen Gongzi for a long time........."
Shen Mushi approached again, forcing both of them to shrink back, his back straight and nervously against the back of the Taishi chair, not daring to move.
The little woman's cheeks were as bright as peach plums, and she looked at Shen Mushi's face closer and closer, until she grabbed her lips and kissed her gently.
"yes, I guessed it......"
At the end of a passionate deep kiss, Shen Mushi held his red face and smiled sweetly.
"If ........... If my father knew, he would have sent someone to kill Qi Mountain to save me....... When the time comes, Shen ....... Shen Gongzi regretted that it was too late........ ....... don't let me go soon........."
Both retorted shyly, and the whole person was like a rabbit that had fallen into a trap, helpless and afraid.
For some reason, she was led astray by Shen Mushi in just a few words, and followed him into the play.
"Are you willing?"
Shen Mushi was very happy, it was rare for his little lady to cooperate with the performance, and he scooped her up from the Taishi chair and clinged to her graceful body.
"Let me go......... There's a dark guard ....... outside."
Both struggled gently, their eyes flashing with water, shy and timid, and full of enthusiasm. They were still sitting in the flower hall, and the two servants were standing at a distance waiting for the dispatch.
"There are no guards out there."
Shen Mushi chuckled.
"Only Shen Gongzi's subordinates will keep their mouths shut for Shen Gongzi."
"Miss Lu doesn't believe it!"
Both grabbed Shen Mushi's thin hand and insisted on clearing the field.
"Please ask Shen Gongzi to let them go farther away........"
Shen Mushi couldn't stand the pitiful gaze of the little woman, and finally lost first.
With a light cough, he cleared his throat and shouted, "You don't have to serve tonight, you all step down." β
"Yes."
The two servants replied from a long distance.
Sure enough, there was a sound of robes rustling, and it was obvious that he had gone away, and at this point, there were no outsiders inside and outside the flower hall except for Shen Mushi and Shuangshuang.
"Miss Lu is satisfied?"
After Shen Mushi finished speaking, he leaned towards her body, forcing her to retreat again and again, as if she was smiling.
"What are you going to do......"
Both grabbed their fronts and trembled, looking scared.
She was crying, and she replied shyly, she would be weak
The role of the little sheep is played in three points
"Robbery, ......"
After finishing speaking, Shen Mushi picked up his pair domineeringly, hugged him horizontally and walked to the bed.......
