――――――――――――――

Li Li smiled and said, "That's it, don't gossip." Both of you are busy people, and this time you must have come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and there must be something important. Say, what's the matter? ”

Li Xuan quickly put away his smile after hearing this, and said with a straight face: "Weichen and Fengxiao have three things to report here. First, five days ago, Xuzhou Mizhu came to Luoyang with his family and wanted to join the lord's command. Second, Mi Zhu released a message two days ago that he wanted to choose a husband for his sister and promised to marry 200 million yuan. After that, Li Xuan turned his head and signaled to Guo Jia, so he didn't say anything more.

Guo Jia immediately understood and said respectfully: "The third thing is that Yuan Shao of Jizhou is provoking Gongsun Chan of Youzhou again, but Gongsun Chan is still avoiding and not fighting. According to Weichen's estimate, there will be a life-and-death battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan within two years, because Yuan Shao is determined to win Youzhou. ”

Li Li's expression changed slightly, he got up and paced back and forth in the hall, his eyes were deep and obscure, his brows were slightly frowned, and he pondered for a long time. Then, he sat down slowly as usual, and said calmly: "Jizhou Yuan Shao and Youzhou Gongsun Zan will have a battle sooner or later, Hebei is so big, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and in the end there is only one strong man." Ignore this matter for the time being, and wait for them to fight.

Xuzhou Mi Zhu came to defect, this is a good thing, of course I welcome him. Although Mi Zhu has no talent to help the world, he is well versed in the way of doing business, skilled in government affairs, and can be regarded as a political talent, which can be of great use. Since he brought all his family members, let him come to Chang'an and temporarily serve as the general's mansion. Lingyin Cao engaged in it, and then arranged it again. ”

Speaking of this, Li Li paused. looked at Li Xuan suspiciously, and said: "Mi Zhu wants to choose a husband for his sister, and he also promised to marry 200 million yuan, this move is quite strange, it seems to mean something else?" ”

Li Xuan nodded happily, looked at Li Li with burning eyes, and said with an unfathomable smile: "The lord said it." Mi Zhu's move is indeed something else. It's just that?????? The lord should have already guessed Mi Zhu's true intentions, after all, he had let Mi Huan stay in Chang'an for more than a year, and he often went in and out of the inner courtyard of the General's Mansion. His heart has long been revealed. ”

"Ugh!" Li Li looked surprised and said suspiciously: "Are you saying that Mi Zhu wants to dedicate Mi Huan to me?" ”

"Exactly." Li Xuan nodded in response and said with a smile: "This time, Mi Zhu came to join with his family, but his younger brother Mi Fang did not accompany him. still plays under Lu Bu. And he threatened to choose a husband for Mihuan. and took out 200 million money as a dowry, and its purpose has been revealed. In recent years, although the treasury of my Xiliang prefectures and counties has become increasingly full, there are not many people who have the strength to receive this dowry, and the lord is one of them, and he is also Mi Zhu's favorite candidate. As long as the lord nods, whether it is Mi Zhu or Mi Huan, there is no objection. And maybe a surprise. ”

"No, absolutely not!" Li Li shook his head again and again. waved his hand and said: "Yuan Zhong and Feng Xiao are not outsiders, so I will simply tell you two today." At present, I have more than ten wives and concubines, except for Mengxin who is not around, the other wives and concubines are in the inner house, in addition to the 、、、 next door, although she is a royal nobleman and has become a wife, but now she is following me with all her heart, and sooner or later she will have a name. So I won't take any more concubines, and don't mention the matter of Mihuan again. If the two of you or the generals in the army want to take a concubine or marry the Ming media, I can do this, and the right is to accumulate virtue and do good. When he said this, Li Li looked resolute, not a little pretentious, not hypocritical, but feeling. Although he is talented, his energy is limited after all, and now Li Li finally has this kind of awareness.

"This 、、、" Seeing Li Li's veto, his expression was absolutely undoubted, Li Xuan and Guo Jia were surprised and very embarrassed.

As Li Li himself said, there are indeed a lot of generals' wives now. After a little bit of a few drops, there is one wife, five equal wives, and there are seven concubines after marrying the foot trainer and Xiao Qiao, and then Zou Jing, the manager of the inner government, plus Zhuge Ling, who is married to Xinna, a full fifteen wives and concubines. It is worth mentioning that Fairy Mengxin does not enter the General's Mansion, but has the title of concubine, which is the sixteenth.

In addition, there is also Li Li's royal nobleman who hides his desire to speak, Liu Hua, the eldest princess of Yang'an. The royal princess, who used to be known as the first beauty in Luoyang, a beautiful woman with all kinds of charms, met Li Li by chance two years ago, and then broke up with her ex-husband and broke up. Then Liu Hua tried every means to contact Li Li, saying that it was not an exaggeration to deliberately seduce, so he became Li Li's underground mistress. In the early summer of last year, Liu Hua gave birth to a son, after less than half a year, and now I heard that she is pregnant again, obviously this is Li Li's seed again, and it is estimated that there will be birth and breeding in the spring of next year.

Three years to raise two children for Li Li, no matter what, she should be given a name, and she can't be wronged by the two children. I have to say that this plump and charming princess Yang'an is really capable of giving birth, and she has four children so far, and if she continues to develop like this, it is not a problem to have one or two more children. As compensation, Li Li placed Princess Yang'an's bedroom next to the General's Mansion, which has long been a well-known thing, and it can't be hidden from the eyes of people with a heart at all.

In view of this, hearing Li Li's resolute statement that he would no longer take concubines at this moment, Guo Jia and Li Xuan fully believed that this was Li Li's true words, and there were already seventeen wives and concubines under his name, and it was indeed not appropriate to take any more concubines.

However, Li Li has one thing to praise, that is, he never let his maidservants or the personal servants of his wife and concubine sleep in the room, which is rare in the mansions of dignitaries. Let's not talk about others, just Li Xuan and Guo Jia, who are sitting next to him at the moment, they only have a wife and two concubines in name, but almost all the personal maids around the wives and concubines have slept in bed, and occasionally have stolen from the beauty in the house. It's just that these maids have never given birth to children, so they have no name, otherwise all together, the number of wives and concubines is not inferior to Li Li.

This is due to the chaos of the world, frequent wars, and a strict imbalance in the ratio of men and women, which has created this seemingly absurd but inevitable social status quo. Under normal circumstances, men and women are evenly proportioned, yet in every war thousands of strong men are killed, if not more. In the long run, the ratio of men and women is strictly imbalanced, and the gap is getting wider and wider. As a result, many young women had no way to make a living, so they had to gather in the mansions of dignitaries and dignitaries to work as slaves and maids to earn a living. As a result, many social phenomena have occurred naturally. It gradually evolved into a common phenomenon, and many eunuchs have long been accustomed to it.

After thinking about it for a while, Guo Jia said: "Except for the lord, Mi Zhu categorically will not let his sister be a concubine, so it is not suitable for us to wait." If the lord has made up his mind, Wei Chen thinks of an extremely suitable candidate. He is amazingly talented and graceful. Whether it is appearance or talent, it is enough to match Mihuan. ”

Li Li looked slightly stunned and asked, "Who is the person Feng Xiao said?" ”

Guo Jia said without thinking: "The lord's righteous brother ??????"

?????????????????????????????????????????????????

Winter goes to spring. The snow melted, and the first year of Jian'an passed quietly.

After the harmonious and comfortable winter, the earth is in spring, and the grass grows and the warbler flies. The whole northern country has a new look. The mountains and rivers are redressed in green, full of vitality and renewed.

In the blink of an eye, it is the spring and March of the second year of Jian'an, and the land of Xiliang is still calm, and now it is busy with spring plowing and sowing, and everything is going on in an orderly manner, without waves, stable and peaceful.

But thousands of miles away in Jizhou. At the beginning of the new year, there was a news: the Son of Heaven occasionally caught a cold in the cold winter last year, and then became ill. There seems to be a sign of early death. As soon as this rumor came out, it quickly spread throughout all states and counties of the Han Dynasty and reached the ears of the princes of all towns, causing an uproar and an uproar among the princes of all towns.

However, rumors are rumors after all, and the princes of each town can only speculate and sit idly by, but they cannot confirm it. However, some people found that in the autumn of last year, Yuan Shao of Jizhou repeatedly provoked incidents, mobilized heavy troops to the border of Chen Bing, and was eager to try, and he could send troops to attack Youzhou at any time, but at the end of the year, he suddenly shrank his troops and died down, making the battle of Jiyou with arrows and crossbows come to an abrupt end and return to calm again. It is not difficult to see from this that the fact that the Son of Heaven is seriously ill is not groundless, but it is true, otherwise Yuan Shao would not have suddenly withdrawn his troops and returned to help at the critical moment of the crusade against Gongsun Zan of Youzhou, putting on a defensive posture.

At the same time, the princes of the towns speculated that there was another reason why the Son of Heaven might be seriously ill. This is when Li Li sent troops to recruit Zhang Lu in Hanzhong two years ago, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, had a serious illness, forcing Li Li to rush back to Chang'an from Chencang, and dispatched dozens of Langzhong and bachelors from Chang'an Tai Academy to treat the Son of Heaven, which was delayed for half a month.

In mid-March, when the princes of various towns set their sights on Jizhou, Yuan Shao suddenly mobilized heavy troops again, and swore in Taimiao in the northern suburbs of Yecheng to go on an expedition, gathering 200,000 troops to crusade against Gongsun Zan of Youzhou; and promulgated the edict of the Son of Heaven, counting the ten major crimes of Gongsun Zhan, and ordered the princes of the world to jointly raise troops to conquer Youzhou.

As soon as the condemnation edict came out, the princes of the world were in an uproar, speculating about Yuan Shao's true intentions, but no princes sent troops to respond. However, the princes of each town knew the original intention of this edict, and it clearly showed that Sikong Yuan Shao had decided to crusade against Gongsun Zhan, and announced that even if the princes of each town did not move, they could not help Gongsun Zhan, and they were not allowed to interfere in the war; Otherwise, it is to ignore the edict of the Son of Heaven and openly rebel.

Just when Yuan Shao was in full swing to send troops to attack Youzhou, Li Li's army, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly issued a general order, calling on the princes of all towns to send a delegation to Jizhou to meet the Son of Heaven, and sent a delegation of more than 200 people composed of ten medical bachelors to Jizhou. As soon as this order was issued, the princes of various towns responded one after another, and the princes of Jingzhou Liu Biao, Yanzhou Cao Cao, Huainan Yuan Shu, Xuzhou Lu Bu and other princes successively sent delegations to pay tribute and worship in Yecheng in Jizhou.

This move disrupted the deployment of Yuan Shao of Jizhou to attack Youzhou, and he had to postpone the war and personally sit in Yecheng to welcome the arrival of the princes' missions.

At this point, after a short period of calm, the situation in the world became turbulent again, turbulent, obscure, and the dense clouds of war shrouded the land of the Central Plains and gathered in the sky over Hebei.
