"A gentleman has something to do and something not to do."

Ma Kuo saw Liu Xing's reaction so fierce, but he smiled faintly.

After slowly getting up from the chair, Ma Kuo paced small steps and continued to say to Liu Xing: "Taifu, don't you want to complete the great cause of recovering the Central Plains as soon as possible? Don't you want to use fewer troops, no killing, and a peaceful recovery of Fuzhou? For the sake of the great cause, are you not willing to pay even such a small personal sacrifice? ”

"If I say no, I can't."

Seeing him say this, Liu Xing's face became even darker, and he almost glared at Ma Kuo with a fire-breathing look in his eyes and said: "Three wives and four concubines, and a group of children are the dreams of many men, but they are definitely not my dreams. Have you forgotten why Nao Orihiko went against his father? Don't you know why the little lady you said would take care of Orihiko like that? ”

"Of course I do." Ma Kuo seemed to have guessed Liu Xing's next sentence, and as soon as Liu Xing's voice fell, he immediately answered: "But if a father can redefine the law of the dynasty and the king at home, just like Taifu You, redefine the family style and family law, will there still be a matter of being bullied by the concubines of Zhi Yanzhi and Zhi Meifeng?" ”

Hearing this, Liu Xing's face did not ease at all, and he still said gloomily: "Even if I can redefine the family law, I will not let the concubines give birth to children and be oppressed by their families at home." But just as you don't let me decree that scholars are forbidden to discuss the government in vain, can I still issue a decree to forcibly prohibit secular ideas from discriminating against concubines and children? ”

Ma Kuo wanted to open his mouth to answer, but Liu Xing didn't give him a chance and waved his hand to stop him, and then said: "The most important thing is that although I like two women at the same time, this is already the upper limit of what my emotional boat can carry." Let me deal with three women at the same time, and I won't have to be in charge of government affairs in the future? Gentle Township is a hero's mound. Do you want me to fall into the gentle country and not get out? ”

He didn't speak for a long time. Zeng Weijie, who had been watching and listening quietly, suddenly stood up after Liu Xing finished speaking.

He hugged his fists at Liu Xing and smiled: "If it's someone else." I'm sure I'll definitely fall into the gentle countryside and won't be able to get out. But in the case of you, Taifu, I firmly believe that you will not delay half a point of government politics for the sake of the love of your children. As for the women, which man does not have three wives and four concubines, and several heroes only have one wife in their lives. So, I agree with Governor Ma's idea. ”

"Fourth Brother Zeng, why are you coaxing!"

I didn't expect that even Zeng Weijie would support Ma Kuo's somewhat absurd idea.

Political marriage, in Liu Xing's thoughts, is a kind of self-betrayal of human nature and personality. This betrayal hurts others. It can also be self-inflicted to a great extent.

Countless novels and stories have evaluated political marriages, and almost all of them have the same result, that is, the same bed, different dreams, and tragic endings.

In his previous life, Liu Xing also had a few friends and brothers who chose political marriage for some purposes. But those few people are all a game, a dream, and a tragedy, ruining their lives. In the end, they all left behind the children of single parents, which directly harmed the next generation.

A marriage without love is not strong, and a marriage without true love is empty.

At this point, Liu Xing, whether in his past life or in this life, has learned enough experience from the failed marriages of the people around him. Therefore, Liu Xing resolutely would not be willing to accept a political marriage, and he did not want to make Yanling, who was already unwilling to pay attention to himself for more than ten days because he liked Yang Ling'er, even more sad.

Ideologically, it comes from two different eras, so that Liu Xing's face completely changed to a look of blame when he spoke to Zeng Weijie.

But Liu Xing's roar did not stop Zeng Weijie. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's not that I'm coaxing, it's that you don't know women too well." Why do you think the Seven Ladies ignore you these days? It's not that you're reluctant to give her a name! Even if the little lady of the Zhe family marries you, I don't approve of letting the Zhe family be the housewife. But if you marry the Seventh Lady first, or make a formal marriage contract, even if the marriage of the little lady of the folded family can only be a side room. As for a test, how much emotion do you give in the future, or even don't pay much attention to it, who can say more? ”

The meaning of Zeng Weijie's words was already very clear, but after Liu Xing heard it, he was even more annoyed and said: "The seventh lady is a woman, and the little lady of the fold family is also a woman." Men compete in the world, why must women be sacrificed. If I am according to what you two say, what is the difference between me and the two emperors who were taken captive by the Jin? ”

"The three adults, the lower officials are soft-spoken, but there is a suggestion that I hope the three adults can listen to, maybe it can make the three of them continue to argue like this."

Just as Liu Xing finished speaking, Liang Xing suddenly opened his mouth.

After Liu Xing, Ma Kuo and Zeng Weijie all threw themselves at him, Liang Xing said: "Liu Qi and Liu Jiuge lost their wives when the party came to attack four years ago, he is Taifu's own brother, and he has no wife, why not let his brother marry his brother and let Liu Jiuge marry Zhe Meifeng, isn't it the same to settle Zhi Yan's straight heart?" ”

"Brother marries on behalf of brother and settles his heart."

After hearing Liang Xing's words, Ma Kuo immediately complimented Liang Xing with a smile: "No wonder Taifu let Liang Xing's little brother take charge of Tiance Guard, and he can think of mediation strategies when he is anxious, and Liang Xiaoge's wisdom is really powerful!" ”

When Zeng Weijie heard this, he also nodded his head vigorously and said, "Not bad, not bad, this method is very good." Taifu is unwilling to let the seventh lady increase her anger for the amorous nature of the man, but Liu Jiuge is widowed and has not renewed, this method is the best of both worlds. ”

Seeing that both of them agreed with Liang Xing's suggestion, Liu Xing secretly said in his heart: Liu Qi holds military power, although he is my half-brother, he treated me very affectionately when he was a child. But the brother built the wall and the friend turned out to be fragrant, who dares to guarantee that he will not join forces with the folded family to disagree with me in the future?

Besides, the first reason why I don't want to marry the little lady of the folded family is that I don't want to make Yanling more sad because of my "affection".

Another reason is that after all, the Zhe family is now a family that has descended the golden dog, and in the eyes of the Han people in the world in the future, there will be some shame towards the Zhe family.

Orihiko is just a son born to a concubine like himself, and he has suffered a lot of white eyes since he was a child. He was able to learn art for many years for the oppression within the family, and as soon as he mastered the military power, he rebelled against his own father.

If such a person is despised by the people a lot in the future, will he play such a rebellion with himself? If he rebels one day in the future, what should he do when the ninth brother is caught in the middle?

There is no suspicion in employing people, no suspicion is used, and the master also wants to do it. But in such a troubled world, if I don't do Cao Cao, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no one else who does not want to be Cao Cao. I don't want to be an overlord, it doesn't mean that others don't have the ambition to be an overlord now and won't have it in the future.

No, even if I ask Brother Jiu to marry the little lady of the Fold family, I must add a layer of insurance to ensure that this marriage between the two generals who will inevitably lead the army in the future will not pose a threat to the overall plan of the young master to reorganize the rivers and mountains......

Thinking of this, Liu Xing slowly sat back in his chair.

Looking at the three of them with a leisurely look, Liu Xing said: "I can let Brother Jiu marry the little lady of the Fold family, but I must also have an agreement." The ninth brother led the troops outside, and the folded family could only follow the guards. If the family is transferred abroad, the ninth brother must return to Beijing. Of course, this agreement is only limited to all of you in the court, and you don't need to tell Brother Jiu and the boy of the folding family. ”

Ma Kuoyan was about to answer, but Liu Xing waved his hand again to stop him and continued: "And I will also issue a decree that Beijing officials and officials outside the country shall not be very close to each other in private, and they shall not be privately given and accepted. Once it is discovered that the Beijing officials and foreign officials are secretly colluding, they can be arrested by Tian Cewei first and taken into the heart washing camp for detailed investigation and interrogation. ”

There is no need for Liu Xing to say much about how much hidden danger the marriage of military generals has caused to the stability of Jiangshan Sheji, Zeng Weijie, Ma Kuo and Liang Xing are naturally very clear.

Not to mention anything else, it's just that the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, the Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, didn't rely on winning over many generals in the forbidden army back then.

It was again worshipping the son and marrying each other, and after forming a force, he easily staged the scene of Chen Qiao's mutiny and the big drama of the yellow robe.

Therefore, after Liu Xing said that it was forbidden for Beijing officials and foreign officials to have a very close relationship in private, and they were not allowed to give and receive each other privately, as soon as they found out, they didn't even use the three law divisions, and directly threw it to Liang Xing's Tiance Wei to deal with this relay. Whether it was Zeng Weijie or Ma Kuo, no one said anything against it.

Seeing that no one objected to the three of them, Liu Xing's face changed from Zhuang Su to a little softened a little and said: "But I still don't want the emperor to marry the ninth brother immediately, and I hope that he and the little lady of the Fold family can have more contact and communication first." It is far better to let two people have feelings before giving marriage than directly letting a pair of strange men and women get married. ”

calculates people, but also wants to let people have feelings and get married again.

After Ma Kuo listened to Liu Xing's words, his heart was secretly moved: What kind of person is this? When calculating people, you still have to talk about feelings, and you are still thinking about not making things too obvious.

In this way, whoever changes to him can't think that he is a strong man, so he can only obediently accept such a marriage!

After Zeng Weijie heard Liu Xing's words, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded again and again: "Taifu is really thoughtful and very comparable. It became a marriage, and it made Liu Jiuge and the little lady of the Zhe family have nothing to refuse. Haha, it seems that it won't be long before we can go to the southwest and ask Liu Jiuge for a bowl of happy wine. ”

"Ahem, ahem."

Zeng Weijie's voice fell, but Liang Xing on the side interrupted him with a dark face and coughed lightly twice before saying, "Zeng Zhuan, don't you want to be the first Beijing official to be arrested by me to go to the heart washing camp, right?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zeng Weijie realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't, don't, don't, I'm just talking, but I'm just happy to forget what Taifu said just now that Beijing officials are not allowed to collude with foreign officials." Brother Liang Xing, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously! (To be continued......)
