The ninth year of Zhaowu in the Great Zhou Dynasty

It has been more than a month since the Yunting family moved out of the Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion. Because Yun Ting has always been low-key, he did not have a big banquet when he moved, and only invited relatives and a few close friends, so he was complained by many officials. For a while, many officials invited Yun Ting to a banquet after the court affairs were over.

Yun Ting entered the cabinet at a young age, and in the eyes of everyone, it was a promising future. In addition, Yun Ting's identity is not ordinary, in the cabinet, although he is not the first assistant, but he is much easier to speak than the first assistant. Who doesn't stutter up such a person?

It's just that Yun Ting is extremely low-key when he wants to act, and after the official business is over, he goes home directly. Usually rarely accept other people's invitations, let alone intimate with anyone. This style of acting has made him more popular in the DPRK and China, and many officials are willing to get close to him.

Yun Ting originally wanted to refuse, but later Emperor Zhaowu persuaded him that it was not a bad thing to walk around with these officials a little bit, so Yun Ting nodded and agreed.

On this day, Yun Ting came back from outside, it was already a little late, but when he saw that the lights in the room were still on, he felt a little sorry, and hurriedly entered the house and found Lizhu, who was already a little sleepy. "Didn't they already have someone come back to tell you? You just have to rest early, there's no need to wait for me. ”

Lizhu was overjoyed to see Yun Ting coming back, and hurriedly stepped forward, helped Yun Ting take off his coat, and then found another clothes to prepare. "The hot water has already been prepared, let's go freshen up first, look at you, I don't know how much wine you have drunk, and you are full of alcohol."

As she spoke, Lizhu pushed Yun Ting to the ear room. At the end of March, the weather was already very warm, and the wooden barrel in the middle of the ear room was already filled with hot water, and it was still steaming at this time. Yun Ting took off the single clothes inside, and then stepped into the bathtub, the slightly warm water temperature, feeling very comfortable. "Livzon, thank you."

Lizhu smiled, "Old husband and wife, what do you say Xie does?" As she spoke, she held Yun Ting's head with her hand, asked him to tilt his head, helped Yun Ting untie his bun, and washed his hair.

After helping Yun Ting wash her hair, Lizhu picked up a cloth towel and helped Yun Ting scrub her body. It wasn't until everything was washed that Livzon handed over the dry clothes for Yun Ting to wear, and took a dry cloth towel to wipe Yun Ting's hair.

"I'll do these things myself. You have to preside over the affairs of the house every day, and you have to take care of your sons, which is tiring enough. Yun Ting cherished his wife, hurriedly took the cloth towel himself, and dried his hair casually.

"It's nothing, I used to be in the Hou Mansion, and I was used to it. Now that we are living alone, things in the house are much worse than those in the Hou Mansion, and I am a lot more leisurely. Today, I also went to Baiyun Nunnery with a few ladies. Lizhu smiled and shook her head, picked up the comb, and helped Yun Ting comb her hair.

They are all couples who have been married for many years, and Yun Ting is very obvious from Lizhu's performance, and it can be seen that Lizhu has something to say. He stretched out his hand and shook Lizhu's hand, "We have been husband and wife for many years, if you have something to say, you can say it directly." Do you still need to hide between you and me? ”

Lizhu's hand stopped moving, and she looked at the clouds in the bronze mirror, a little still. , for a long time, then said softly. "Xianggong, I want to put Qinglian and Qinghe two and put them in Xianggong's room."

Yun Ting turned around sharply and stared at Lizhu, "What's going on?" You and I have been married for more than ten years, and our Chang'er is in his teens. I've always been the only one with you, haven't we had a good life? Why are you talking to me about this kind of thing at this time? ”

Lizhu was uncomfortable by Yun Ting, she stretched out her hand, covered her lower abdomen, and her face was slightly red, "I have it again." Livzon whispered.

Yun Ting was overjoyed when he heard this, and reached out to hug Lizhu, "Really?" That's a great thing. "There are not many heirs of the two of them, and there are only three sons at the moment: Jiachang, Jiaxian, and Jiayu. Jiayu is already six years old, and Lizhu has never been pregnant since then. Now that he learned that his wife was pregnant again, Yun Ting was of course overjoyed.

As he spoke, he hugged Lizhu to the bed, "With a body, you dare to sleep so late?" What else is open to the house, what are you thinking in your head? But Yun Ting was happy, and remembered his wife's words just now, and couldn't help but be a little angry.

"We already have three children, didn't they come here at that time? I'm not one of those people, I can't do it without a woman for a day. It's only a year and a half, where do you need any room? "What's going on in your wife's head? It's just inexplicable.

Lizhu faced her husband who was a little angry, and couldn't help but feel empty. "I'm also doing it for your good, I'm almost thirty years old, and I'm no longer a beautiful young girl. Coupled with the fact that he is in charge of family affairs and his sons all day long, he is really afraid that he will not be able to take care of his father-in-law. Not to mention, now that I'm pregnant again, I have to have two caring people to serve by my husband's side. ”

Lizhu also has some grievances in her heart, as a woman, no woman would want her husband to have other women by her side. But lately, Yun Ting has always returned late, and sometimes, he still has some aroma of fat powder on his body. Lizhu knew that Yun Ting was going out to socialize with others, but it was just a matter on the scene, but in her heart, she always had some minds.

It just so happened that during the day, when I was traveling with several ladies and talking together, a few ladies talked about family affairs. They all prepared a concubine room for their husbands, and the slaves and maids in the house, especially the girls who were originally serving closely, gave them to their husbands to make a room, which is better than the husband running out to find another woman?

In the meantime, Lizhu also retorted, saying that the emperor has now strictly forbidden officials to take concubines and accumulate beauty, don't everyone know?

Those ladies laughed at Lizhu, and some people said that Lizhu was from a small family and did not act magnificently. This kind of thing is not a big deal, it has been passed down like this for many years, where can it be completely banned? Besides, even if there is no one at home, can't a man go out and find it?

Like Lizhu, a woman who has occupied her husband for more than ten years and has never arranged a room for her husband. In fact, in the eyes of those big families, it is a typical example of jealousy. Those women who come from big families are actually very disdainful of this phenomenon. I think that women are like this, they are too stingy and have no heart.

Lizhu was a little angry at the moment, thinking that these people were simply squeezed by the door. Now that even the emperor only guards the queen to live alone, can these officials be more noble than the emperor? However, Lizhu is a gentle person, but she didn't have a seizure on the spot.

When she returned home, she didn't know if she was angry or tired, so Lizhu felt dizzy. invited Lang Zhong, but he was diagnosed with a happy pulse. At this time, Lizhu couldn't help but think about it. Now Yun Ting often goes out, and she is pregnant again, and she can't serve her husband for a while.

Yun Ting has been guarding his life all these years, and it is not easy to say. Now that it is time again, if Yun Ting runs outside to find a woman on a whim, in case it is known, I am afraid that it will cause trouble. It's better to let Yun Ting take the two good-looking girls around him into the house, and save other forks.

Lizhu endured the sourness in her heart, and then mentioned this matter to her husband, but she didn't expect that her husband would be angry. Lizhu felt aggrieved in her heart, and her tears couldn't help falling, "It's not for your good, but you asked me like this." If I hadn't had you in my heart and treated you wholeheartedly, who would have eaten enough to get these things out? ”

After listening to Lizhu's words, the trace of anger in Yun Ting's heart dissipated. He took off his shoes and went to bed, took Lizhu in his arms, and bowed his head and kissed Lizhu's forehead and cheek. "Silly lady, this is listening to other people's instigation, and then you will drill the horns, right?"

"It's also a resentment to me, it's true that I've been out a little more recently. Those officials complained that we didn't invite them to a banquet when we moved, so they invited me out. Besides, His Majesty also let me have more contact with them. Although the years are still peaceful and the government decrees are smooth, it is inevitable that the following officials will have their own ugly things. ”

"Your Majesty's meaning, let me have more contact with people and understand the character of these people. If there is any change in the future, it will not let His Majesty be deceived. I also think it should, so I've been getting closer to them recently. Men drink and have fun outside, most of them are in restaurants and brothels, and the smell of fat powder you smell is probably contaminated at that time. ”

"The little vinegar bucket, obviously drank a belly of vinegar, but still kept it a secret. You can't trust your father-in-law like that? Those women outside, I don't look as good as you. Besides, where are they as gentle and considerate as a lady? You marry me, you give birth to children for me, and you take care of the household affairs for me. If I leave you behind and run to find another woman, wouldn't it be a wolf's heart? ”

"In the future, don't say anything about the house, the Han family was originally from a small family, and there is no such rule. I just need to guard the lady and live our little life wholeheartedly. Yun Ting hugged his wife tightly and comforted him softly.

At this time, Lizhu finally let go of her thoughts, "Xianggong, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't doubt you." She said apologetically.

"I don't blame you, I didn't make it clear to you. Okay, let's sleep, you have to have a good rest, and the children need to have a good rest. This time, you are going to give birth to a girl for me, just like Jiaqing Jiaying, a beautiful and caring girl. Every time I see the daughters of the Yunlei family, I am panicked. ”

Speaking of this, Yun Ting was deeply jealous of Yun Lei, Yun Lei's family, three daughters, all of them are beautiful and lovely. Yun Lei returned home every day, and the three girls gathered around Yun Lei, beating their legs and rubbing their shoulders, and the little girl's delicate and soft voice called Daddy. That scene is simply envious of the dead.

Lizhu was amused by her husband and laughed, and after laughing, she was relaxed and fell asleep after a while. Yun Ting saw his wife fall asleep with a smile, and he was also relieved, hugged his wife, and fell asleep soundly.

At this point, the matter of intercourse was left behind. Since then, Yun Ting has reduced the number of times he goes out, and even when he goes out to drink, he no longer goes to brothels.

Nine months later, Lizhu gave birth to a girl, and Yun Ting was overjoyed and named the girl Jiayang.
