Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 511 The Mistress of the Hou Mansion, I'm afraid I can't do well!

The banquet of the big wedding in Baimahou's mansion lasted from early noon to late noon, and when dusk came, the guests dispersed.

Looking at the red sun in the western sky, Lu Yu suddenly felt tired.

Getting married is a real physical job!

The servants were clearing away the leftovers from the banquet. Cai Zhaoji specially called Lu Yu into the study. People said that the elder sister was like a mother. As Lu Yu's only sister, Cai Zhaoji felt it was her duty to explain to her younger brother before he got married.

Today Cai Zhaoji drank some wine, at this moment, her eyes were a little drunk, her face was flushed, like two flying red flowers were dyed on the shell of an egg.

She greeted Lu Yu to her side.

Instructed: "From now on, Brother Yu will be a man with a family. Everything is incomparable to the past. In the past...you were just my Brother Yu, the imperial doctor of the big man, and the right-hand man of the elder brother. Of course, with these identities you The acting is very good, but in the future, you have to learn to be a husband, to be the husband of two wives, to be the pillar of the family, this identity is not easy!"

Speaking of this, Cai Zhaoji seemed a little sentimental.

She paused, feeling a sense of loss in her heart.

After calming down, he said softly, "Fortunately, neither the princess nor Juan'er are unreasonable women. The princess had a hard life since she was a child, and she lost her father before she was an adult. of."

"As for Juan'er, no one in Xu Capital City does not know that the noble daughter of the Xiahou family has always gone to Rangshan to collect firewood herself. She is in charge of the whole family of Xiahou's mansion. They will not cause trouble. I am only worried that this The two wives of a Marquis Mansion, if Brother Yu can't handle it well, I'm afraid it will be..."

Hearing this, Lu Yu took Cai Zhaoji's hand. "Sister Zhaoji, don't worry, I will treat them kindly."

"What's more, we still have Sister Zhaoji in the Baimahou Mansion. If I don't do well, Sister Zhaoji can teach me, just like I used to be when I was a child."

Suddenly, Lu Yu grabbed both hands, and Cai Zhaoji's flushed face, which was already drunk, became even more blush.

She hurriedly took her hand back.

"I'm about to enter the bridal chamber, and I'm still flirting with my sister, what does it look like when people see it, go, Juan'er and the princess are waiting in the bridal chamber, you are busy tonight."

what…

Hearing this, Lu Yu joked with a light smile.

"Or, I'll stay here with my sister tonight."

This…

Cai Zhaoji's face turned red again.

"nonsense."

She tried her best to act fierce, with a cold face. "Go quickly, or my sister will be angry."

"Good, good, good."

Lu Yu finally smiled at Sister Zhaoji, turned around and planned to go to the bridal chamber.

"and many more…"

But at this moment, Cai Zhaoji's voice rose again.

"sister?"

Lu Yu groaned.

Before he could blurt out the words, Cai Zhaoji had already stood up, and stretched out her Qianqian jade hand to help Lu Yu tidy up her clothes.

"Just toasted, the clothes are all messed up, and I don't care about changing them. Sister can help you tidy up."

talking...

Cai Zhaoji took care of Lu Yu's crown, collar, and cuffs one by one. After finishing all this, she took two steps back, with the corners of her mouth raised, showing a gratified smile.

"Okay, now we can go to the bridal chamber."

After finishing her sentence, Cai Zhaoji gave Lu Yu a push.

Lu Yu wanted to talk, but the key point was that Sister Zhao Ji didn't give him the chance.

You can only pass through the bluestone steps and step into the dimly lit bridal chamber.

...

That night, red candles were flickering in Baimahou Mansion, and it was full of joy.

In the new house, Lu Yu held Xia Houjuan's hand, which was cold, and Lu Yu could feel her nervousness through a layer of red handkerchief.

call…

Exhale gently.

"Don't be afraid! It's me"

With a word of comfort, Lu Yu lifted his head cover. Strictly speaking, this was the first time Lu Yu saw Xia Houjuan.

Of course, this is not unusual.

Marriage is like this in ancient times, it is a matter between families, especially in big families, most of the boys and girls have never seen each other before uncovering the hijab.

Typical parents do it all.

Of course, for Lu Yu, Xia Houjuan's portrait was actually sent over. Of course, the level of ancient painters is far behind the "photographs" of later generations.

In the portrait, Lu Yu felt that he was just above average, but at this moment... Seeing the real Xia Houjuan's face, Lu Yu swallowed subconsciously.

Under the red candle, Xia Houjuan in a red robe was very shy.

Speaking of it, her appearance is not as good as that of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, but she can also be said to be a rare beauty, with a lightly smiling face exuding a fresh and ethereal temperament, this unique temperament, Immediately, Xia Houjuan's charm rose sharply.

Because it was the first time, Lu Yu was looking at his wife from top to bottom.

At last…

His eyes still stayed on the willow waist bound by a red belt.

Looking at the willow waist that was not enough for a firm grip, many surprises flashed in Lu Yu's eyes.

Among the women Lu Yu had known before, Xiao Qiao's waist was the thinnest, and Da Qiao's figure was the most impeccable. In front of him, Xia Houjuan's beauty was more like a perfect combination of figure, ethereal and cuteness.

Slender, weak, and shy, this is Lu Yu's most intuitive feeling for him.

While Lu Yu was looking at Xia Houjuan...

Xia Houjuan was also looking at Lu Yu...

With shyness and doubts, her big eyes kept turning up and down, as if... her future husband was more handsome than she imagined.

but he?why you do not say anything?
At this time, should the girl speak first?

call…

Breathing out softly, Xia Houjuan seemed very inexperienced.

Some are at a loss.

"boom"

At this time, Lu Yu stretched out his hand and hooked his little nose, and then pinched her waist with curious hands...

Be good, with this waist... I'm afraid Xiao Qiao will be willing to bow down.

Seeing that Xia Houjuan was still nervous, Lu Yu said jokingly.

"Don't hold back, just smile."

"I..." Xia Houjuan bit his lips, hesitated for a long time before uttering three words. "I can not…"

"Don't even dare to laugh? How will you be the mistress of the Hou Mansion in the future?" Lu Yu reached out and ticked her nose again.

this time...

Xia Houjuan smiled reluctantly.

"Gong... son..."

She spoke softly, but before she could say anything, Lu Yu shook her head directly. "You are calling it wrong."

This…

Xia Houjuan lowered his head, pondered for a while, and when he raised his head again, he mustered up his courage and shouted.

"Husband...husband!"

"That's right!" Lu Yu smiled slightly. "From now on, you will be the hostess of our Hou's mansion. Except for sister Zhaoji, everyone has to listen to you. Be confident! Show your courage and confidence when you made meritorious service in Rangshan!"

call…

Xia Houjuan listened to Lu Yu's words, exhaled, and the teeth that bit her lips loosened a little. She is an obedient girl who obeys her father at home and her husband after marriage. Now in this bridal chamber, she can do whatever her husband tells her to do.

only…

"The hostess of the Hou's mansion, I'm afraid I can't do well." Xia Houjuan shook her fingers and lowered her head.

"It's actually not difficult." Lu Yu said with a smile. "It's just that the current atmosphere is not the time to teach you this!"

Having said this, Lu Yu asked curiously. "Right? What should I do next? Does the lady know?"

Xia Houjuan nodded. She has memorized the rules and steps of getting married for three days, and she knows them by heart.

"It's time for a cup of wine."

After her words fell, Lu Yu fetched a glass of wine from the table, and the two exchanged glasses... Lu Yu drank it all in one gulp, Xia Houjuan took a sip and tried to finish it, but it was too spicy to swallow.

"I don't drink very well!"

Xia Houjuan's voice was very soft, with a hint of apology in it.

"Then don't drink." Lu Yu took her wine bottle and drank most of Xia Houjuan's bottle... "Next..."

Lu Yu wanted to continue the process.

After all... at a time like this, he has to guide!
He has experience, how can a girl like Huang Hua understand this?

Unexpectedly, before Lu Yu could speak, Xia Houjuan deliberately lowered his head and replied softly. "Next I... I know, the Xiahou Mansion specially invited the female officials in the palace to teach, saying that it is going to... like that!"

"How is it?"

Lu Yu asked subconsciously.

He was very puzzled. A noble lady from a famous family is particular about it. Guiding by a female official in the palace is a one-stop service that saves worry and effort!

Men in ancient times were especially men!
Hearing Lu Yu's rhetorical question, Xia Houjuan exclaimed "Ah", she pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

"Ha ha…"

Lu Yu simply laughed out loud, it was getting late and there was no delay.

After all... he is very busy, this night will have to be broken in half!

Immediately, the red candle was extinguished, and everyone slept together!

...

...

On the north bank of the Yellow River, Liyang City.

Because of the internal strife between the Yuan brothers, Zang Ba led the Taishan army and directly entered Liyang City without the need for ladders and chariots.

Seeing the enemy army, Zang Ba and the soldiers around him shouted together.

"Long Xiao camp is here, you are waiting to die!"

In the darkness, Yuan Jun, who had been fighting fiercely before, almost lost his soul when he heard the name "Long Xiao Battalion".

Don't wait for them to react.

They heard a deafening cry of killing.

——"Kill, leave no one behind!"

On this pitch-black night, countless Taishan troops uttered a roar, cutting down everyone they met in the narrow city wall passages and blood-stained official roads. They knocked Yuan Jun who was fighting to the ground, and they rushed forward.

One fell, and the Taishan army behind him flew to make up for it again, and fought with Yuan Jun...

This battle is the name certificate of the Taishan Army!
This battle is about whether the Taishan Army can "support" in the Longxiao camp!
And this time...

Whether it was Yuan Tan or Yuan Shang, they were all stunned, and they rushed out the third wave of soldiers, still known as the "Longxiao Battalion". Undoubtedly, this almost crushed the last straw for the two sides who were already at the end of their battles!
Countless spears, scimitars, and sticks danced in the darkness!
at this time…

No one can clearly distinguish the cry for help from the screams, let alone whose soldiers and horses fell down?

Three armies melee!

Countless soldiers fell to the ground, and even the Taishan army suffered heavy casualties. Although their combat effectiveness was strong, they were forced by the calm Yuan Jun to form a battle formation near the city gate, unable to break through quickly.

even…

With the passage of time, the number of Yuan Jun and their familiarity with the terrain once again allowed them to stabilize the situation, as if... this time it was extremely difficult to break through the city.

"General... can't get in!"

Sun Lining, a deputy general of the Taishan Army, frowned and shouted at Zang Ba.

"If you can't get in, let me attack! I promised Commander Lu that this Liyang City... the gap in the northern border will be broken through by our Taishan Army warriors!"

Zang Ba's voice fell.

"Rush in with me!"

Immediately, he was the first to kill Yuan Jun in the street.

at this time.

"Da da da…"

"Da da da…"

The rapid sound of horseshoes resounded.

Zang Ba subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

But it can be seen that on the official road, in the darkness, countless torches are lit, like a beam of strong light illuminating the darkness here in an instant.

That's cavalry...

Tens of thousands of cavalry!
And when the cavalrymen waved the flags, under the reflection of the fire, the huge "Cao" flags were galloping from far to near against the cold wind.

"The general...is a tiger and leopard cavalry..."

Sun Li recognized the cavalry regiment immediately.

"Ha ha…"

"Hahaha!" Zang Ba laughed loudly. "Ok, ok, ok..."

He, who was about to charge towards the enemy, stopped for a moment.

"Defend the city gates and welcome tigers and leopards to ride into the city!"

"Well..."

The earth-shattering reply sounded extraordinarily firm at this moment!

Under a bright moon, countless war halberds drew moon arcs in the air, whistling and killing with a biting wind!
The offensive and defensive battle of Liyang City has officially reached its climax at this moment!
...

...

Xu Ducheng, Baimahou's Mansion, the moon is on the brows, and at this moment Lu Yu and Xia Houjuan are fast asleep.

"Bang bang."

There was a slight knock on the door, Lu Yu rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at the sky, it was already "ugly time", according to etiquette, it was time to enter the middle of the night.

Lu Yu glanced at Xia Houjuan who was sleeping soundly beside him, and quickly got dressed.

He walked lightly to the door.

The knock on the door turned into a knock on the window.

"Don't rush, here we come."

Lu Yu opened the door, and the old lady in the palace was still outside... Lu Yu was very suspicious, she was a professional!
"Cough cough..."

The old nanny coughed lightly. "Bai Mahou, forgive me, the princess of Wannian is a daughter of thousands of years, so don't make her wait for a long time! If Bai Mahou doesn't move, the old lady is not at ease, so she can't go back to the palace to explain to the empress."

Ha ha…

Hearing this, Lu Yu went "hehe", and looked back at Xia Houjuan who was sleeping soundly, and saw that she hadn't been awakened, so he closed the door.

"Let's go!"

There is so much helplessness in one sentence.

Tread…

As the sound of light footsteps gradually faded away, Xia Houjuan in the bridal chamber sat up with a "swoosh".

She didn't dare to move just now, because she was afraid... because of herself, it would affect her husband's going to the princess mansion, not to mention... outsiders are still there, if it gets out, it will give her a bad reputation of being jealous.

only…

As soon as Lu Yu left, the huge bridal chamber suddenly became deserted.

Xia Houjuan walked to the door lightly, watched her husband's leaving back through the window, and lightly lit the oil lamp after he left the mansion.

"really…"

"Only when the husband is here, this is the bridal chamber!"

self-mumbling…

It seemed that there was a trace of loneliness in the corner of Xia Houjuan's mouth, but this loneliness stopped abruptly. Facing Haoyue and watching her husband's disappearing back, she groaned softly.

"Isn't it the greatest happiness of Juan'er's life to be able to meet Jun in the bridal chamber?"

blurted out a word.

Xia Houjuan's face turned red!
It seems that something embarrassing has been thought of.

...

...

In Baimahou Mansion, there is an ancestral hall with dim light, and in the middle of the rows of spirit tablets are Cai Yong's spirit plaques.

And there is a lamp in front of the spiritual tablet of each ancestor of the Cai family.

The slightly drunk Cai Zhaoji was standing in front of her father's spirit tablet.

She took off her bright clothes and was wearing a plain robe, holding an oil pot in her hand, adding oil to the lamp.

"Father, Brother Yu has truly grown up today. He married a girl from Xiahou's family and Princess Wannian..."

"That's right, Princess Wannian is the younger sister of the royal family that Dad hugged when he was a child."

Cai Zhaoji refueled while opening her mouth...

After blurting out these two sentences, she knelt down in front of her father's spiritual tablet.

"Father, when Brother Yu went south to find his biological father, he specially asked him to go south with him, but he couldn't bear to leave the imperial court, so he just sent his servants to protect him along the way. He never thought that... the farewell at that time would be the last between daughter and father. one side!"

Tick, tick...

As if recalling her childhood, Cai Zhaoji's eyes couldn't stop falling.

"Father always said that Brother Yu is intelligent and agile... he is a talent that can be made, and he will definitely do something in the future, and be admired by the world!"

"Today, Brother Yu has become Doctor Yushi, Head of the Imperial Academy, Commander of the Long Xiao Battalion, Marquis of Baima Pavilion, all the scholars, artisans, and doctors in the world respect him. He has grown into the appearance that father predicted!"

drop…

Tick ​​tock!
A few more tears came to my eyes...

Cai Zhaoji wiped away tears. "Father, if you are still here, if you can witness Brother Yu's wedding... that would be great."

"Father, daughter, daughter misses you!"

While speaking, Cai Zhaoji bit her lips with her teeth...

Hold back the tears left behind.

After a few breaths, she calmed down her throbbing mood.

She raised her head again.

"Father, daughter...Daughter has something on her mind, she can't tell others, she can only... only tell dad."

"Father, please don't laugh at your daughter!"

After hesitating for a long time, Cai Zhaoji raised her head, she wanted to say something in her heart.

"Father, why did Brother Yu marry a wife, daughter... the daughter will feel a sense of loss, the daughter will feel empty in her heart."

"This feeling, in fact, has already appeared in my daughter's heart very early, when Brother Yu was taking a concubine..."

"Always feel...feel..."

After all, she is a talented woman in the world, Cai Zhaoji at this moment can't describe this feeling in words.

It's strange, I wish Brother Yu to live well, but my heart is empty.

She paused, her silver teeth biting her lip.

"Father, my daughter won't...wouldn't like Brother Yu, right? But... But we are siblings? Is it against ethics for a sister to like a younger brother? Is it not tolerated by the world?"

This just came out of my mouth...

Suddenly a gust of wind blew in outside the door, and the lights in the ancestral hall flickered. Cai Zhaoji hurriedly protected her father's lights with her hands.

She turned her head to see...

At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared outside the door.

Never thought that when Brother Yu got married, she would come at such a late hour!
