Chapter 988: Happiness and Headache
The huge palace was originally a place for the emperor to eat, and at most one or two close princes and princesses, or the prince himself could accompany him...... That's how it should be.
Now there is a large round table, and then there is a smaller, rotatable wooden table on the upper round table. On top, there are all kinds of dishes, and there is a pot of soup. Around the round table, not only Liu Xie, Wang Yong and Liu Feng, but also many women and children, everyone chatted and ate at the same time, and there was no etiquette at all.
Fortunately, in such a situation, the eunuchs who served next to him were also used to it. Of course, I felt unworthy for His Majesty, and actually married a man who already had several wives. No, there are only a dozen people in the family, and there are seven or eight sisters.
Yes, Xiahoudun and Guan Yu from the front line are back. Until the end of the Lantern Festival next year, there is no need to go back. In the final analysis, Youzhou has been completely pacified, and the follow-up is nothing more than the reorganization of the Xuzhou Army into the Youzhou Army, and the reorganization of the Yanzhou Army into the Bingzhou Army.
These trivial matters, there is no need for Guan Yu and Xiahoudun, just come back and take a look. Naturally, Lu Lingqi also came, but Xu Shu and Chen Gong are said to have to wait until the year before they can come back, at least until the twenty-ninth year.
The family, gathered around a table, ate hot pot and dumplings. Very ordinary hot pot and dumplings, of course, the way is somewhat different. For example, there are more than a dozen eunuchs around the table, who wants to eat what, just give an order, and the eunuchs help to use chopsticks and long spoons to put them into the large charcoal stove hot pot to scald, and then help take them out and put them in the bowl.
It's a little less do-it-yourself fun, but it's just the right time to talk to each other about family life.
"Copper coins, copper coins!" Guan Xing took out a copper coin and excitedly showed it to his mother.
"Xing'er is so lucky!" Guan Yu smiled, then wiped the copper coin and put it in the small bag on Guan Xing's chest.
"Guan Ping, how about we compare and contrast after eating?" Not far away, Cao Zhang was inviting Guan Ping to fight.
"Okay!" Guan Ping nodded, and there was a period of time under Guan Yu's name, and he went to the front line with his mother a while ago, after all, he had already passed the crown, so as a personal soldier, he followed him to the battlefield.
Among everyone, Wen Qin and Cai Yan are relatively special existences, one of them is only Wang Yong's disciple, and the other is just Wang Yong's house slave, and they can eat at the same table, which can be said to be a concession. But after eating, Cai Yan stayed to serve, not to mention, Wen Qin would definitely be sent back to Zhuangzi.
At the same time, there are also Wang Chang, Wang Jing and Wang Ji, all of whom are outstanding children of the same clan, who came to have a meal, and after eating, they also want to go back.
"There is a lot of ......excitement at home," Liu Xie sighed, a few years ago, Wang Yong had four wives and two children. In the blink of an eye, not only did he have a large number of children, but there were also a few more wives, and the key was that there were many more people.
She liked this lively feeling, no matter what, it was more comfortable than making this palace deserted.
I remember that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he mentioned this statement. When Emperor Wu said, there is only one family living in the huge palace, and it is a waste to count the number of children at most a dozen or so, and the few to live in such a large palace.
At that time, I remember that it was Dongfang Shuo or who said: "The things are gorgeous and majestic, and the palace is not only the residence of His Majesty, but also the face of the Han Dynasty." When those Fanbanghu people see the magnificent and majestic imperial city and palace, they will naturally subconsciously be in awe, which is the barbarian awe of civilization! ”
It is also because of this question and answer that the subsequent emperors can only acquiesce to the palace becoming more and more magnificent.
Looking at the complex, there are a lot of them, but there are not many that can be used. There are more eunuchs and palace maids, which reduces the desertion of this deep palace. The most difficult thing is probably that those princes and princesses have to live in a palace alone when they are seven or eight years old.
In the morning, I really got up from the big bed of one hundred square meters, and more than 20 eunuchs and palace maids waited to change clothes, bathe, and wash, only in this way can I forget the fear when I slept alone last night. Several times I woke up from nightmares and looked at the empty hall, and the feeling of helplessness came naturally.
However, the rules are like this, and no prince can fail to obey them. Perhaps, this is the price of nobility, right?
On Liu Xie's side, the main reason is that the child is still young, so there is no need to comply. Of course, she will not obey it, just as she can marry a man who already has several wives.
"That's how we feel like a family!" Wang Yong agreed, he sat next to Liu Xie, and on the other side was Cao Cao, which was the prerogative of the main wife. The others, although they are all surrounded on both sides, can still be seen in their status at home.
"It's just...... There are only three people who inherit the husband's career......" Cao Cao nodded, so many excellent second generations can completely make this family become able to support the development of this family. Of course, strictly speaking, Cao Chong represents the Cao family in Qian County, and Xiahou Nan represents the Xiahou family in Qian County...... Etcetera.
can represent the Wang family, strictly speaking, there are only three people, Wang Fan, Wang An and Wang Yu, two men and one woman.
Cao Ang is a history of assassination in the state and will not come back this year. Cao Pi has moved to live in Yecheng, so he will not come back. In the end, there were only Cao Zhang and Cao Chong by her side, of course, the latter was still young and had not even been weaned.
Cao Zhen also entered the table as a 'nephew', but of course, like Wen Qin and others, he had to return home after the banquet.
"I've given birth to three, and I'm done." Xun Yu said with a smile, looking like he had calculated it early.
The other women bowed their heads, especially Liu Xie touched their stomachs. This child is born, regardless of whether he is male or female, he should be surnamed Wang, otherwise, as a wife, it is a bit unreasonable.
"Hey, hey, don't be like this, I'm scared......" Wang Yong suddenly felt that he was dripping with hot pot, but the sweat dripping from his head at this moment was a little cold.
Being remembered by nearly ten wives is no longer a matter of happiness, but a matter of heart...... No, no, no, this is definitely going to the point of death!
"It's hardly a big deal next year, or ......," Cao Cao thought thoughtfully, "Sisters, fight for another one each?" ”
"It's not like we're just going to say it." Xiahoudun was embarrassed not to turn his head.
"One more...... It's not bad......" Guan Yu was a little shy, but he was also very much looking forward to it.
If you use this body to regenerate one...... Guo Jia is thoughtful, her emotions are much richer than Dian Jie.
“………… Hmm......" Lu Bu nodded, she felt that she should work hard to be a real mother.
"If you make an appointment, you will also give me a child......" Dian Jie reminded.
"Speaking of which, I've recently researched new potions...... Hua Tuo said with interest.
"It seems like a lot of fun, or I'll just get involved." Xun Yu looked like he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement.
"Me, me, me!" Wei Yan raised his hand, "I'm going to give birth to my husband too!" ”
"And me!" Cai Yan also ran directly over to join in the fun, and then she was still ignored by everyone.
"Please let it go......" Wang Yong looked like he was about to cry.
I've always wanted to say that there are more than ten chapters to finish, but depending on the situation, can I hold on to another twenty or so chapters? Or is it better to speed up the progress a little less watery?
