Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 346: Fight for favor and hegemony

In the harem, Mrs. Huarui was waiting for Meng Chang to return from the court. She carefully dressed up early.

The decoration here is very beautiful. The drapery and silk decoration use a lot of Shu brocade. Shu brocade is famous for its gorgeous colors. The palace looks colorful, as if you are in a bright spring. The curtains swayed gently, and the spring breeze coming in from outside brought the fragrance of flowers. A scene of wealth and beauty.

Mrs. Huarui picked up a colored jade bracelet and looked at the window, she saw that the color was crystal clear and emerald green, as if she had collected all the colors of early spring. Youdao is that gold has a price and jade is priceless. This bracelet is very valuable and is a good gift from the emperor.

But Mrs. Huarui put it down gently and changed a pair of gold bracelets. She prefers gold and gems to jade...Jade is too brittle.

In fact, compared with the palace, the status of the seal, and the fertile land for her, a little gold jewelry is no longer valuable. But Mrs. Huarui's hobby has not changed. She doesn't feel much about Guangsha and Liangtian, but she is particularly obsessed with gold jewelry. When she used to be a singing girl, she had no fixed place. Only the jewelry that she wore on her body could follow her, so she liked those things the most.

In this kind of solitude, many memories always come to mind unexpectedly. What she learned in Jiaofang was the most impressive thing in her life. The coach said, “Why do men spend a lot of money for you? You have to pay for it, or the only cheap ones are to be sisters in the kiln. You don’t have much money for hard work. , Fame, singing, dancing, and piano can increase prices, you must understand what is expensive and what is cheap..."

For a long time, her body is the most valuable, so she also likes to use all kinds of expensive clothes to set off the value of her body.

Mrs. Huarui picked up a gold inlaid gemstone waist chain and decorated it on her soft waist. Looking down, the white and smooth skin was set off more and more exquisite and noble. There was also a small hole in the belly button. She picked it out in the shiny wooden box and found a small gold ornament with red gems, took it on her fingertips, and felt that the color did not match, so she changed it now. A green one was immediately satisfied.

She stayed in front of the bronze mirror for an hour before she dressed herself. For a while, I saw that the person in the mirror was exquisite, brightly colored, and looked like an ordinary woman.

After waiting for a long time, Meng Chang finally walked back in front and back, and Mrs. Huarui bent her knees to greet him. I saw him sitting on the Yuta, and he took a long breath, as if tired. The court lady brought tea up, and Mrs. Huarui stretched out her jade hand and said, "I'll come, you go down."

"Yes." Everyone withdrew.

Mrs. Huarui's fingers painted with light red patterns and the white hands match the colors just right. These hands are holding the jade white tea cups, and the emerald green tea leaves are deposited in the water light. This cup of tea is very beautiful for a time. Sure enough, Meng Chang couldn't help but wanted to drink, and took it.

Mrs. Huarui let go of the teacup, and then reached out her hand to gently rub Meng Chang's temple, and said softly: "Your Majesty has worked hard for national affairs, you have worked hard."

Meng Chang was immediately filled with the spirit of a man: "My world, of course I have to work hard."

Having said that, he straightened his chest, but the qi in his speech was still very empty.

Mrs. Huarui glanced at him. Meng Chang's forehead was full, his facial features were correct, his skin was white, and his face was actually pretty good. But Mrs. Huarui knew that the body under his clothes was actually very bad, because the internal organs were weak when he was addicted to wine. There are a lot of fat on his body, and the skin on his body is also very loose; anyone who knows him knows that he still has many minor diseases... Of course Mrs. Huarui doesn't care about these. Meng Chang's right and money is the key. But if a man is to be picked and picked like a singing girl, Mrs. Huarui will not like this kind of man who looks good at first glance and looks bad inside.

Her concept of selection of people is also formed by trying to figure out the minds of men. Just like when a man chooses a singing girl, he will not only look at his face, but at various real places, such as skin, chest, waist, legs and other specific things. Men don’t have so many specious intuitions... this It's also because Mrs. Huarui doesn't usually put on too much makeup, because the kind of men who can afford money don't care about what they put on their faces, and it's not very useful to put them on.

Mrs. Huarui took away those useless minds, paid attention to Meng Chang's expression, and asked softly: "The concubine heard that the Zhou Dynasty army attacked our country, did the court discuss countermeasures?"

Meng Chang is no longer as panicked as in the morning, and calmly said: "I have already deployed it properly, from the deployment strategy to the hiring, so I don't have to worry about it."

Mrs. Huarui asked, "How is it arranged?"

Meng Chang said: "It is nothing more than North Road, East Road, Jianzhou and Kuizhou. North Road sent Han Baozheng to go there last year, and East Road I asked Wang Zhaoyuan to be the supervising army and urged the defenders to adopt the court's strategy. Shu State Natural danger will surely keep Zhou Jun out of the country."

Mrs. Huarui pondered: "Your Majesty still don't take it lightly. Since the Zhou Dynasty dared to use troops, they must have some certainty."

"Haha." Meng Chang said with a smile, "Guo Tiejiang was forced to be helpless. The courtiers just thought he was not willing to come. The people of the Zhou dynasty were poor and short-minded and armed with military forces. Now the interior is very unstable and needs to occupy the place and plunder the results to maintain. Ting was unwilling to sit still, so he naturally forced Guo Tiejiang to come; because Guo Tiejiang and the Fu family were trusted by marriage, and the military power is in his hands, who can he rest assured if he doesn't come?"

Mrs. Hua Rui recalled what she knew about Guo Shao. In her mind, an illiterate man from a poor place appeared in her mind. He nodded after thinking about it: "It does make sense for the courtiers to say that. Then Guo Shao has already sat in a high position to enjoy the glory. Rich, not like someone with great ambition..."

Meng Chang sighed: "I blame the Southern Tang State for being too subdued. Not only did it claim that the ministers gave the land and send money, but even the country's lord listened to the Zhou Dynasty; otherwise, the Zhou Dynasty was forced to fight the Southern Tang State. We would be better... …Does Concubine Ai also think that I should abandon the position of honor before to avoid the edge?"

Mrs. Huarui shook her head: "Your Majesty shouldn't have given up his position."

Meng Chang said, "You didn't say that because you were afraid of rebelling against me?"

Mrs. Huarui was silent for a while, and then softly called out "Your Majesty", and then said: "The harem concubine competes for favors, and often makes a mistake. He always wants to make your majesty gather thousands of favors and become the final winner; but such people also Often they can’t get what they want. There are all kinds of women, but as long as they can be liked by your Majesty, you don’t have to decide the outcome with others."

Meng Chang's face was a little confused, and he didn't understand why Mrs. Huarui suddenly got involved in the harem competition.

Mrs. Huarui glanced at him: "But if several men like a woman, then they will score a victory. Only one person can hold a beautiful woman. No matter how good he is, as long as he is slightly worse than others, he will be Exclude. Is that true?"

Meng Chang followed her topic and nodded and said: "That's right, unless the woman is unscrupulous and wants to have affair with several people at the same time."

Mrs. Huarui said in a convenient way: "The juggling of pets between women is easy to handle, but the struggle for hegemony between husbands is much more cruel, and there is only one final winner. Like the battle between Chu and Han, the king of Western Chu is also considered outstanding, but Han Gaozu Slightly better; the three countries are in troubled times, and each country has its own strengths, but they can't always coexist." She looked at Meng Chang's kind words and persuaded, "Your Majesty should hurry up and make preparations.

Meng Chang nodded slightly, but said nothing.

Mrs. Huarui could not continue to say it, she knew it would be piercing if she said it... the loyal and blunt words should be blunt, she is not a minister, there is no need to disobey the emperor and make him unhappy.

Anyway, in her opinion, although she is now a noble concubine, her mood of wandering as a singer has not changed in essence; it's just that her life is better for the time being. Another difference is that in the past it was necessary to please many men who watched singing and dancing, but now only one man needs to be pleased.

Although the Kingdom of Shu is surrounded by mountains on all sides to facilitate defense, it can only wait to die if it does not fight for it when the Central Plains are chaotic. After all, there is only one winner in the end... and that day shouldn't be too long. The end of Tang Dynasty has been fighting for a hundred years, and there is no reason to chaos for decades.

"The concubine is a woman, and I read some books to be able to talk to your majesty and prevent yourself from being too ignorant." Mrs. Huarui implicitly persuaded, "The concubine can understand the truth, your majesty must be early I understand."

Meng Chang said in a serious way: "The words are reasonable. The Manchu civil and military people called me to guard the kingdom of Shu, but Wang Zhaoyuan often said that he wanted to go out of Shu to fight for the world. I like him."

Mrs. Hua Rui asked: "There are many people with good eyes and low hands. How does His Majesty UU read www.uukanshu.com know about Wang Zhaoyuan? He is not the kind of aspirational talent who is ignorant?"

Meng Chang hesitated a little and said in deep thought: "Wang Zhaoyuan is known as Wolong, Yu Zhen, like Zhuge Kongming to Liu Bei...probably, he should have some ability.

Now after the death of Guo Rong (Chai Rong), Central Plains seems to be in chaos again. As long as they return without success this time, they will collapse from the inside. I should work hard now, and prepare to go out of Sichuan to fight for the supremacy of the world! "

Meng Chang put it up and said in a serious way: "According to Wang Zhaoyuan's general plan, after this war, our country should counterattack from two lines. Regain Qin and Feng all the way to prepare for entry into Guanzhong; take Jingzhou all the way down the river and occupy Jingzhou as the former fort from Sichuan... …Now the Liaoning civil unrest, the decline of the Northern Han and Southern Tang, the collapse of the Central Plains, this is a great opportunity for Dashu to compete with the Central Plains..."

Mrs. Huarui looked very interested and listened patiently to his plan. However, it is inevitable in my heart that I remembered what Meng Chang had to work **** at the end of last year. As a result, as soon as the Zhou army withdrew and the pressure eased, Meng Chang continued to travel through the flowers. Does he really want to fight for hegemony?

In any case, Zhou Jun is now putting pressure on it, and Meng Chang seems to be able to get through this situation with such a careful military and political effort... She can't worry about the future. r1058()
