Chapter 114: A fly in the ointment
Wei Xuan smiled: "You and I are husband and wife, you can make your own decisions about anything, how can I blame you for being a husband." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
A hint of cunning flashed in Cai Yan's eyes, and he said softly: "This is what Lang Jun said himself. ”
Wei Xuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, but the words had already come out, but he couldn't take them back, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Say, what's the matter?"
Cai Yanxian pointed to a courtyard next to him and said, "Lang Jun will go there to rest tonight." ”
There are many houses in the state pastoral mansion, and there are more than 30 separate courtyards, except for Cai Yan and Xun Cai, who each live in one courtyard, most of the courtyards are idle. The courtyard Cai Yan refers to is separated from Cai Qiong's place by a small pond, which is usually uninhabited.
Wei Xuan couldn't help but wonder: "Why is this?"
Cai Yan said softly: "There is a charming and knowledgeable Mrs. Wu in the courtyard waiting for Lang Jun, why does Lang Jun need to ask more." ”
Wei Xuan was surprised: "Mrs. Wu, you mean Sun Jian's wife Wu?"
Cai Yan sighed and said: "Lang Junzi's heir is not prosperous, and Sister Qiong has been passing through the door for some time, but there has been no movement. That Feng has been married to Yuan Shu for many years, and he has nothing to do, and it seems that he can't give birth. That Mrs. Wu gave birth to four sons for Sun Jian, which should be the appearance of a suitable son, and she can continue the bloodline for Lang Jun. Thanks to Feng's sister's reminder, the concubine thought of this section. ”
If Wei Xuan was still the weak scholar in the past, Cai Yan would naturally not worry about how many children he had. But now it's different, Wei Xuan is already the lord of a state, even if Cai Yan doesn't worry about it, after a long time, those civil and military forces will not be at peace. After all, everyone can see that Wei Xuan's ambition will not be limited to Jingzhou. Because the infant mortality rate in this era is very high, only if there are a few more masters, the foundation will be stable, and everyone will feel at ease. It doesn't make sense, but that's what people thought at the time.
At the beginning, Cai Yan accepted Cai Qiong, that is, he thought that Cai Qiong had the appearance of a suitable son, and now he said that the Wu family had the appearance of a suitable son, Wei Xuan secretly shook his head when he heard it. Of course, Wu can give birth, that is tested by practice. It's just that whether or not to have children is in Wei Xuan's own hands, and he has nothing to do with these women.
Wei Xuan frowned unconsciously and said, "The Feng family is really troublesome!"
Cai Yan smiled: "She is also thinking about Lang Jun, Lang Jun should not blame her." Besides, the concubine did not embarrass Mrs. Wu, she was all willing. ”
Since the Wu family is willing, Wei Xuan has no psychological burden. However, he still said in a deep voice: "Feng is quite restless, Madame needs to be careful. ”
Cai Yan said indifferently: "Lang Jun rest assured, if she dares to disturb the back house, the concubine has her own family law." ”
......
That night, Wei Xuan really came to this courtyard.
Wu dressed up to greet him, although his face was a little shy, but he didn't have much twisting, and his demeanor was natural and generous, just like facing his own husband.
Wei Xuan knew that the Wu family was not the kind of woman with water-based poplars, and after Sun Jian's death in history, she had been observing festivals and never remarried. So seeing Wu's performance today, he couldn't help but be a little strange, and asked softly: "Mrs. Wu succumbed to something, can you feel wronged?"
Wu sighed and said, "As long as the adult can promise Wu Wan three things, Wu Wan will be owned by the adult from now on." ”
Unlike Feng and Bian, Wu Wan was born into a real scholar family and studied since childhood, so she received an official name instead of a milk name. In fact, Wu Wan's original wish was to marry a talented man who read poetry and books, not a hero like Sun Jian. It's just that the Wu family began to decline at that time, and Wu Wan was forced by the situation to marry Sun Jian.
Wei Xuan knew that things really wouldn't be so simple, so he bowed his head and said, "You can tell me about it." ”
Wu Wan said with a straight face: "First of all, I hope that the adult will promise to avenge this blood revenge for her late husband, so that Wu Wan can serve the adult with peace of mind." ”
Wei Xuan said: "Wei will cut Yuan Shu sooner or later, but this one depends on you." ”
Wu Wan said again: "The second thing is that I hope that the adults will treat their first husband and young sons well." ”
Wei Xuan responded: "Sun Quan and Sun Yi will be sent to Xiangyang Academy from now on." Sun Kuang and Sun Lang can be temporarily recuperated in another hospital, and when they are a little longer, they can be sent to the academy. This second piece can also be up to you. ”
Even ordinary children of the Jingzhou scholar clan can't easily enter Xiangyang Academy, this is not ordinary kindness. Wu Wan showed a relieved smile on her face, and then her expression became nervous again, and she said: "The third thing, if Ce'er violates military discipline in the future, I hope that the adults will open the net." ”
Military law is like a mountain, and this third thing makes Wei Xuan embarrassed.
Seeing this, Wu Wan said softly: "If the adults should do these three things, the concubines will never see each other again, and they will be the same as passers-by!"
The mother and son have been separated since then, and the two will not see each other, and Wu Wan has made a lot of determination to say this. It's just because she knows that Sun Ce is short-tempered and easy to violate military discipline. In order to save Sun Ce's life at a critical moment, she could only make such a sacrifice.
Wei Xuan was silent for a long time before he nodded and said: "Wei will give Sun Ce a gold medal, and whoever holds this gold medal can be spared death no matter what crime he commits!"
The stone in Wu Wan's heart finally fell to the ground, and she hurriedly bowed to Wei Xuanyingying, lightly untied Luo's shirt, and whispered: "The cheap concubine waits for Langjun to sleep." ”
Wei Xuan saw Wu Wan's slightly bulging lower abdomen, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Aren't you pregnant?"
Wu Wan said softly "um" and said, "It's been more than two months." ”
Wei Xuan smiled and put her clothes back on, and said, "Then let's sleep in harmony tonight." ”
Wu Wan was stunned, lowered her head and whispered: "As long as Lang Jun is happy, the concubine can bear it." ”
Wei Xuan stroked her abdomen and said very seriously: "Although he hasn't come out yet, he is still a little life and should be respected." ”
Wu Wan originally thought that she was just a prisoner of war, and she was not Wei Xuan's flesh and blood in her stomach, so she would be treated roughly, but she didn't expect Wei Xuan to be so understanding, and couldn't help but say with gratitude on her face: "The cheap concubine listens to Lang Jun." ”
Wei Xuan took Wu Wan in his arms and sighed secretly. When he first came to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was bored, and he also studied why Cao Cao was a "wife control", but he didn't expect that it was less than a year ago, Cao Cao's wife, Sun Jian's wife and Yuan Shu's wife had all been included in the room by him, and he himself became an out-and-out "wife control".
......
In the blink of an eye, it was the New Year, except for the holiday of Xiangyang Academy, the new city expansion site and the hundred workshops did not stop work. In order to take care of the emotions of the craftsmen and the people, Wei Xuan ordered the slaughter of pigs and sheep, added a sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal to them, and gave each person another hundred yuan. Sure enough, money can make ghosts grind, and craftsmen and people are more motivated.
After another two months, a brand new Xiangyang City was finally unveiled in front of people.
The wide moat and the tall and sturdy walls are spectacular. In the inner city, the Yamen of the three armies of the State Pastor, the Taishou Yamen, and the Ma Bushui are lined up in turn, the residences of civil and military officials are magnificent, the Hundred Workshops and the brand-new Xiangyang Academy are eye-catching, the barracks, granaries, and treasury are in good order, and the streets and alleys paved with bluestone slabs are clean and tidy. Jia Xu, Xi Wei, Dian Wei, Xu Huang and others who moved to the inner city all felt novel and excited.
However, the inner city only occupies a small part of Xiangyang City after all. The fly in the ointment is that the outer city of Xiangyang, except for the old city, is empty and looks extremely deserted.
