Chapter 1184 Someone Gives the Prince a Woman
Shangguan Ruoli came back from the wounded barracks. Seeing Ling Yao looking worried, he comforted her and said, "How old is it that you can become a little old lady with worry?"
Ling Yao pouted and stamped her feet, "Concubine, you are still making fun of me!"
This was the first time she gathered her own manpower, and it was really a big blow to encounter something like this.
Shangguan Ruoli put his hand on her young shoulder and said, "Okay, you have sent other people to follow them. Even if Wen Xiaonian doesn't take action, he can't get it."
Ling Yao leaned against Shangguan Ruoli, showing the helpless and hurt look that a ten-year-old girl should have, "But, I feel like I've been betrayed."
Shangguan Ruoli chuckled, "Where is this? Don't say that Yi Ming is a meticulous worker. Even a servant who has signed a death contract will betray his master. In the future, you may face betrayal from friends or even relatives. You
It will be more uncomfortable, but remember, no one is your everything, learn to let go."
"Relatives? Are they brothers?" When Ling Yao thought that her beloved brothers would turn against her, her heart hurt like a knife.
Shangguan Ruoli patted her shoulder, "Fool, my father, mother, concubine and brothers will always be your support, but we will leave you eventually, and you will have your own life, so you are the biggest
Reliance. People have to think openly in this life, otherwise they will be very sad, you know?"
Ling Yao nodded, "Don't worry, concubine, I understand the reason. Just sleep and you'll be fine."
"Okay, take a shower and have a good sleep." Shangguan Ruoli sent Ling Yao back to his room and asked Qingqiu to take good care of Ling Yao before going back to his room.
Zi Yan and Xue Ying had prepared bath water, and Shangguan Ruoli also took a hot bath and fell asleep as soon as they got on the bed.
When he woke up, he heard Ling Yao's happy voice.
Shangguan Ruoli coughed lightly, and Rejoice came in, "The princess is awake?"
"Where are Zi Yan and Xue Ying?" Shangguan Ruoli sat up and rubbed his eyes.
Rejoice lifted up the tent and hung it on the hook beside the bed, "Zi Yan is washing clothes, and Xue Ying is cooking."
Shangguan Ruoli stretched out and heard Ling Yao's laughter, "Ling Yao sounds very excited. What is there to be happy about?"
Rejoice said: "Xueqiu is here. Maybe there is no familiar person in the house and I don't want to stay in the house."
Xueqiu was left in the city lord's palace to protect Dongming Zijin. The big white wolf Yinxue followed Xiao Fei and Jing Xi. The emerald snake was Xueqiu's little crush, and he was there wherever Xueqiu was.
Shangguan Ruoli gets dressed, gets out of bed, washes and changes clothes.
She wasn't too worried about things at the wounded barracks. Military doctors were basically disciples of Bai Qingqing's various training classes, and now most of them were able to work alone, with "interns" helping out.
Rejoice tied up Shangguan Ruoli's hair and said as if telling a joke: "The people from Jicheng told me a joke and they laughed me to death."
She was referring to the people from Meihua Pavilion. News was sent from Jicheng every day.
"Oh?" Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows slightly and said with great interest: "Tell me and listen."
Rejoice said: "Zhou Puzhong surrendered and asked for peace. The woman I gave to the prince last night was a concubine from Zhou Puzhong's family!"
The prince allowed the prince to tell the princess this matter. He was afraid that Shangguan Ruoli would be upset if he found out about it from other people's mouths.
Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said, "These people are really... speechless. Why do they want to go all the way to the dark side? If they are sure that there is a way to give a woman as a gift? Why don't they give some gold and silver treasures, antiques, calligraphy and paintings?"
Rejoice said disdainfully: "He can't afford to raise his own soldiers. Where can he get the gold and silver treasures to give away? I heard that the Nanyun court has not given Zhou Puzhong food and salary for two years, and all the money he has at home is used to raise soldiers."
To win over local officials and forces, most of them rely on marriage and giving away daughters."
It was precisely because he thought of ways to raise money to raise soldiers that he felt sorry for his soldiers. When he saw that there was no chance of victory, he did not want to make unnecessary sacrifices.
Shangguan Ruoli nodded, with a look of disdain in his eyes: "It's just a gift. These tricks are leftovers from other people's games. There is nothing new. I heard that Zhou Puzhong is also a powerful figure in this party, but this method is really shocking.
Disdainful."
This is not the first time, nor will it be the last. Shangguan Ruoli has already been very calm about this matter.
As long as Dongming Ziyu can control it, she will happily watch those people suffer.
Rejoice continued: "I haven't told you the most ridiculous thing yet! What Zhou Puzhong gave as a gift is a pair of twin sisters, born from his love affair with another wife."
Shangguan Ruoli's face darkened, "Tsk tsk, are we going to fly together? The mistress in the outer room should be outstanding in appearance, and the twin sisters should be pretty good-looking."
Dongming Ziyu would never be so stupid as to accept an enemy woman before the battle. This gift was so flattering that it hit the horse's hooves.
Rejoice said disdainfully: "Zhou Puzhong was able to separate one side and become a local emperor, and all kinds of women took the most credit."
"Oh? Tell me." Shangguan Ruoli felt that this person was also a talented person and was well versed in sexual bribery.
Rejoice said: "He and his sons' concubines, concubines, and daughters were all used by him to bribe his superiors and win over subordinates and local forces. The twin sisters were treated as gifts by him since they were twelve and three years old.
Sending it back and forth, I don’t know how many men passed by.”
Shangguan Ruoli's outlook on life was shattered to pieces. He could just give away his own women and daughters for this purpose, but he also used the women and daughters of his sons as gifts. They were really the best fighters among beasts.
Rejoice said indignantly: "If the prince really has an affair, what woman doesn't and needs to pick up his ragtag son?"
As he said that, he looked at Shangguan Ruoli's expression worriedly, "This matter is also the result of the prince's instructions. Let me tell you something, in case you find out from other people's mouths and get angry."
Shangguan Ruoli said thoughtfully: "I really want to meet his pair of daughters. They are such beauties that will dazzle the country. Being able to use them to succeed many times means that they must be very attractive to men."
Rejoice saw that she didn't take it to heart at all, so she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Princess, everyone has bullied me so much, but you still have the heart to make a joke."
"This is not bullying." Shangguan Ruoli yawned, "In their view, this is a means of communication."
But this Zhou Puzhong must be an extremely disgusting scumbag bastard.
Shangguan Ruoli asked: "How did the prince handle this matter?"
"Of course it's confiscated, but..." A gloating smile appeared on Rejoice's face, "It also made Zhou Puzhong lose his face."
Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's going on? The prince originally wanted to negotiate peace, so why didn't he save face for Zhou Puzhong? Even if he doesn't accept it, he should resolve this matter peacefully. Could it be..."
Just climbed into bed?
Rejoice's eyes flashed, "For the specific details of what happened, I'd better wait until the prince comes back and let him tell you in person, so as not to taint your ears."
Is this the rhythm of exciting movies?
Shangguan Ruoli said: "It's okay, come and listen."
