Xiao Zhaoye was indeed as stupid as the man said. As soon as Emperor Wu of Qi made a fortune, Xiao Zhaoye summoned Emperor Wu's musicians and actors to play music, sing and dance.
The musicians and actors missed the old emperor and shed tears while performing, while the young emperor was laughing and drinking happily on the throne.
On the day of Emperor Wu's funeral, Xiao Zhaoye had just left the funeral car and excused himself from going to the cemetery because he was sick.
After returning to the palace, he immediately summoned the musicians to perform Hu tunes, perform songs and dances, trumpet the Hu and Qin, and the sound filled the inside and outside.
After Xiao Zhaoye came to the throne, he was very willing to reward the young people around him, with a reward of hundreds of thousands.
Every time I see gold and silver ingots served below, I say to myself: "I used to think that none of you were rare, look how I can use you today!"
There is a total of 800 million yuan in the imperial treasury, with countless gold, silver, cloth and silk. Xiao Zhaoye has squandered most of it in less than a year after taking the throne, and gave it to his proud officials and palace officials. There are a lot of cultural relics and treasures scattered throughout the palace.
People usually throw and break them for fun.
Xiao Zhaoye also had a habit of dressing up in strange clothes, and often wore colorful and embroidered clothes in the palace.
They bought roosters at a high price and played with each other.
His queen, He, was also very "free" and had promiscuous affairs with left and right people every day.
Xiao Zhaoye, the ridiculous emperor, was eventually killed, and the imperial power fell into the hands of Xiao Luan, the side clan.
The man held Shan's waist, rubbed her arms with one hand, and asked: "What are you going to do about the Lou family?"
Shan said calmly: "It... depends on what you mean."
The man said sadly: "Jun'er, aren't I discussing this with you?
I know... I have treated you badly over the years, and you are very resentful towards me, but... for the sake of our great things, this is what we have to do!
The lineage of my ancestor, King Jingling, has only two brothers in my generation. My second brother has a flashy temperament, and it is difficult for him to become a great person. I control many major events behind the scenes, and I am exhausted mentally and physically for this!
Fortunately, you are here to help me share some of the burden, otherwise I would not be able to cope with it!"
Shan smiled faintly and said softly: "Xiao Lang, you and I have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. I am willing to do anything for you. This is my friendship for you and my fate.
Life and death are destiny, wealth is in heaven. No matter what, I always have enough food and clothing, but you have no fixed place and are wandering around. You have been running around for that big thing all these years, and you haven't even gotten married, let alone any heirs.
p>
No matter how much resentment I have in my body and mind, how can I resent Xiao Lang in particular? The Lou family is getting weaker and weaker, and it will only be a matter of time before they fall. How to properly arrange this matter depends on Xiao Lang's wishes."
p>
Shan emphasized the word "meaning" very hard. The man frowned and asked, "Jun'er, what exactly do you want to say?"
A helpless smile appeared on Shan's lips, and she said softly: "Xiao Lang, it's okay for you to be wandering like this. You have to start a family and have children. If there is a woman you like, just marry her..."
The man held her tightly in his arms and said: "You are the only one in my heart, and it is difficult for other women to enter my heart. Don't mention this matter again."
Shan's face turned bitter and said: "The problem is, the big thing you want to do is not something that can be accomplished in a day. What if this generation can't do it? Think about it carefully, Qi has been subjugated for nearly a century, and now the world is no longer what it used to be.
In this world, it is better to make plans in advance."
The man looked directly at Mrs. Shan and said word by word: "I originally wanted to persuade you today, but I didn't expect you to persuade me instead. If I want to have children, you have to give birth to me."
Shan said angrily: "I am already old and yellow, how can I still have children? Don't make fun of me!"
The man said sternly: "My Lou family is the heir to the emperor and has noble blood. How can we randomly find a woman to give birth to an heir? Okay, I won't mention this matter anymore."
Shan was moved, she curled up and crawled into his arms, and said quietly: "How can I be so virtuous and capable... Xiao Lang is a royal nobleman, with a noble character, a strategic mind, and extraordinary intelligence, but I am already married to a nobleman."
Is he really not worthy of Xiao Lang as a wife? I am satisfied to be able to cuddle up with Xiao Lang and have fun for a while..."
The man stopped her words: "I heard that Lou Qingyi finally married her childhood sweetheart?"
Shan pressed her cheek against his solid chest and said with some disdain: "He's just a down-and-out scholar. Even if we don't do anything and it's just a run on the second and third rooms, he has no foothold in the Lou family."
"If you don't like this person, I only need to use some tricks to drive him out of the Lou family!"
Although the second and third bedrooms were weak in aura, she did not take them seriously. The only people in the Lou family that she feared were the old man and the eldest lady Lou Qingyi.
Shan didn't meet Chen Chang often, but seeing his sickly appearance, he naturally regarded him as a soft persimmon who could be manipulated.
The man warned: "Don't act rashly before you find out his details!"
Shan was unconvinced and said: "Why is Xiao Lang like this?"
The man frowned and said: "Some people have seen him hanging around with a group of government officials, as if they are very familiar with each other. Think about it, he is a scholar who just came to Jiangling from Yizhou and is not familiar with the place. How could he get along with the government officials so quickly?
As for the relationship, this person is by no means as easy to deal with as he seems on the surface."
Shan was dissatisfied, but she had no choice but to agree.
The man said: "I have to leave Jiangling tomorrow. Just follow what I said and don't act rashly."
"I listen to Xiao Lang!" Shan looked at the man resentfully, "I just came back and I'm leaving again, leaving you alone in the empty room. Where are you going this time? What are you doing?"
Both of them are in their forties, but hugging each other at this moment, Shan is still like a newlywed young woman, with spring in her heart.
Her thoughts were all on the man. Seeing his uncertain face and helpless sigh, she couldn't help but raise her head and kiss him gently on the lips.
"Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask about it. Xiao Lang, it's rare for you and me to get together. Although it's just a moment of joy, we should cherish it even more."
How can a man tell a woman his troubles casually? The man smiled slightly, reached out to pick up Shan, put her on his lap, gently stroked her hair, and said softly: "One day, I will take you
Pick you up from Lou's house and put a phoenix crown on you with my own hands."
Awake to hold the power of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of a beautiful woman.
This is the ultimate dream of every man. Once, his ancestor, Prince Jingling Xiao Ziliang, was only one step away from this goal. But one wrong step after another, their lineage was getting further and further away from the imperial power, so much so that they could only remain anonymous.
Live.
Sometimes, he thought that it was indeed cruel to give up the one he loved for the unreachable imperial power.
Over the years, he has been exhausted physically and mentally, and he has also thought about finding a paradise with the Shan family and becoming a couple of gods. What a desirable thing it would be!
