Chapter 455 Mother, Lingqi grows up and wants to marry the emperor
Chapter 455 Mother, when Lingqi grows up, she wants to marry the great hero, the emperor’s uncle!
"It's coming soon, Lingqi, don't be anxious."
A woman's voice came from the carriage in the middle.
There were two people sitting in this carriage, one was a beautiful woman who looked to be in her twenties, and the other was a seven or eight-year-old girl.
This lady is Lu Bu's first wife, Yan.
Lu Bu and Yan got married very early.
When Yan was fifteen years old, she had a daughter, Lu Lingqi.
Although she was a mother at this time, she was actually not very old at all, only twenty-three.
Twenty-three, in the era when Liu Cheng and later generations lived, for many women, they were just the age when they had just stepped out of school and entered society.
In that era when some artists in their thirties could be called girls, Yan's age was not old at all, and could even be called young.
However, in this era, she was already a wife and mother, and had long since transformed from a girl to a young woman.
She was wearing a plain-colored dress, and even her headband was white.
This is a sign of her mourning for Lu Bu.
As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, be filial.
Yan herself is very beautiful and looks good.
At this time, wearing a mourning robe, he looked even more handsome, adding a bit of color.
She is not short. Even sitting here, you can see that she must be taller than the average woman when she stands.
Sitting next to her was a girl, Lu Bu and Yan's only daughter, Lu Lingqi.
Maybe it was because both her parents were tall. Although Lu Lingqi was only eight years old at this time, she looked much taller than girls of the same age.
Yan's heart seemed flustered and uneasy.
Her husband died and she completely left her mother and daughter.
When he did things before, he didn't think carefully and didn't consider a way out for his mother and daughter.
If not for the previous time, it happened that Uncle Liu Huang had won a great victory in Yizhou, and the news came back, which made Dong Zhuo in a good mood and pardoned his mother and daughter. I am afraid that by this time, his mother and daughter would also have lost their heads.
, died.
Even if you don't die, your life will definitely be uncomfortable, and you will definitely end up being turned into a prostitute.
She lived in Luoyang and Chang'an for a long time, and saw many times how Dong Zhuo treated his enemies and their families with thunderbolts.
Especially since her husband actually assassinated Dong Zhuo, naturally she and her daughter would not be spared.
As a result, in the end, because of Uncle Liu Huang, who had always been hostile to her husband, her mother and daughter were saved...
Regarding this, Mr. Yan felt very complicated.
There is no doubt that I feel grateful towards Uncle Liu Cheng, but I also feel some complaints and even resentment towards my husband, Lu Bu.
After all, before assassinating Dong Zhuo, he never told himself about this matter, nor did he make any arrangements for his mother and daughter.
It is tantamount to directly abandoning his mother and daughter, leaving them to fend for themselves!
Faced with this important change, Yan's heart was definitely angry with Lu Bu.
As time went by, her heart became a little calmer.
But now, some of the peace that finally appeared in her heart was gone again.
All of this comes from the news that Cheng Lian and Gao Shun sent to me through their family members...
The capable generals under her husband were almost dead with the death of her husband.
Only Cheng Lian and Gao Shun who went to Yizhou with their troops and horses with Uncle Liu survived and were still powerful.
During this period, if they had not taken care of each other, the life of mother and daughter would have become even more difficult.
At this time, such news came from the family members of Cheng Lian and Gao Shun. In fact, Mrs. Yan was not surprised.
She is not such a stupid woman.
Maybe she is confused about family and national affairs, and it is easy for her children to fall in love with each other, but when it comes to matters such as daily life, she is very clear-headed.
Through daily contacts, she was able to confirm that neither Gao Shun Cheng Lian nor Gao Shun Cheng Lian would marry her. After all, their identities were there and they had their own families.
After the rumors started, she knew that Gao Shuncheng and Lian were afraid that they would let her get married.
Being able to delay talking about this matter until now shows that they are really affectionate and righteous towards their confused husband.
What surprised her was that the marriage partner they found for her was actually Uncle Liu Huang!
This made her mood very complicated.
After all, Uncle Liu Huang is different from others.
However, after some thought and struggle, she still chose to follow the wishes of Cheng Lian and Gao Shun.
Because according to her current situation, she no longer has any power to choose.
Gao Shunchenglian is now her last resort.
If we fall out with these two people again and don't follow their wishes, then the life of mother and daughter will be really difficult in the future.
In the days after her husband Lu Bu died, Yan really experienced what it was like to have no man as the backbone of the family.
This feeling is really unpleasant.
Without a man to support the family, it is really impossible to rely on oneself alone.
It’s really hard!
No matter what grudges my husband had with Uncle Liu Huang before, now that he is dead, the grudges will naturally dissipate.
What's more, because of Uncle Liu Huang, my mother and daughter were able to live in this world.
From this point of view, Uncle Liu is very kind to his mother and daughter...
Yan's confusion and anxiety were not mainly about this at this time.
Regarding her marriage to Uncle Liu Huang and her future relationship with Uncle Liu Huang, she had already passed the hurdle in her heart.
The main thing is how to face Uncle Liu Huang after coming to Yushan, and whether Uncle Liu is willing to accept him or not, and whether he will drive him away...
"Mom, where are we going? Grandpa is gone, and my daughter is always afraid..."
Lu Lingqi looked a little uneasy as she spoke, with an uneasy feeling about the unknown future.
She was not so cautious originally, but since Lu Bu's death, Lu Lingqi has become much more cautious and is always easily scared.
Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Yan became more determined to find Uncle Liu Huang.
Not only to find a support for myself, but also to find a support for my daughter.
It is really difficult for a wife to have no husband and a daughter to have no father. In this era, it is really difficult.
Yan reached out to hold her daughter's hand, stretched out her other hand to touch Lu Lingqi's head, and forced a smile on her face.
"Good daughter, don't be afraid. Your grandfather is gone, but your mother is still here, and she will protect you well.
The place we are going to is Yushan, and the person we want to meet is Uncle Liu Huang.
From now on, as long as you live a good life here in Yushan and stay with Uncle Liu Huang, you don’t have to worry about any difficulties..."
Lu Lingqi blinked her eyes and said, "Is that the uncle Liu Huang who led his troops to defeat Yizhou?"
Yan smiled and said, "Who else could it be besides him?"
Lu Lingqi seemed a little excited: "Then we don't have to worry anymore from now on. Mother, I heard people say that Uncle Liu Huang is a great hero!"
When Yan saw her daughter's reaction, she felt better, her determination became firmer, and there were more smiles on her face.
She reached out and touched Lu Lingqi's head again: "Yes, Uncle Liu Huang is a great hero who stands upright. By his side, we will definitely not be wronged in the future."
Lu Lingqi said: "Mother, my daughter really wants to grow up quickly."
Yan smiled and said, "Why are you so anxious to grow up like this? Do you want to protect your mother as soon as possible?"
Lu Lingqi nodded vigorously, her little face full of seriousness and some yearning: "When I grow up, my daughter can marry the great hero Uncle Liu Huang!
After marrying this great hero, let’s see who dares to bully us in the future!”
Yan, who was looking at her daughter with a loving smile, was so shocked when she heard this that her expression changed. It took a while before she regained her composure.
"Lingqi, you can't have such thoughts!"
Yan looked a little serious and said to Lu Lingqi.
Lu Lingqi raised her face and said with confusion: "Why is this?"
Yan said: "Uncle Liu Huang already has two wives, and those are his first wives.
Ordinary families only have one wife. Uncle Liu Huang has two, which is an exception.
From now on, if you want to marry Uncle Liu Huang, you can only be a concubine.
The concubine's status is too low, no different from the slaves in the house. When she meets the head wife with a bad temper, she will be drugged to death without paying attention, and there is no room for reasoning.
You are my mother's only daughter, how can you be a concubine...
If you are poisoned to death by that wife, what will my mother do in the future?"
Hearing her mother say this, Lu Lingqi was immediately frightened: "Mother, this, this wife is so vicious?"
Yan nodded seriously and solemnly: "Yes, it is so vicious."
Lu Lingqi's face turned pale. After a while, she said hesitantly: "Then, when my daughter grows up, it is better not to marry Uncle Liu Huang, but to marry someone else's wife."
Hearing her daughter say this, Mrs. Yan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
I couldn't help but reach out and quietly wipe the sweat from my forehead.
When these words came out of the youngest daughter's mouth just now, she was frightened.
My whole body felt numb all of a sudden.
Fortunately, my daughter is still young and ignorant, so she was frightened by her words.
Otherwise, if this thing really happens...
As long as she thought about it in her heart, Yan felt herself becoming even more numb. She quickly shook her head to get this unreliable idea out of her mind, preventing herself from thinking about this unreliable thing...
"Mom, if we go to Yushan and get to the Emperor's uncle, will we be poisoned to death by the Emperor's wife?"
Lu Lingqi, who was silent for a while, looked up at Mrs. Yan, looking a little uneasy.
At a glance, Mrs. Yan knew that she had frightened her daughter too hard just now.
Immediately he said: "That's not possible. We just live our lives and don't do anything else. We don't want to be Uncle Liu's concubines. Naturally, they won't kill us with drugs.
Besides, Uncle Liu Huang is there, he is the one who really has the power and means what he says."
"profound."
Lu Lingqi nodded her head and responded, indicating that she understood.
In the lowered face, the eyes were full of thinking, with some doubts...
The carriage became quiet, and the team continued walking towards Yushan despite the wind and snow.
People and horses passed by, leaving traces on the road...
…
"Ah sneeze!"
Here in Yushan, Liu Cheng couldn't help but sneeze loudly.
He shook his head, wondering if he had a cold.
After doing this for a while, I felt that it shouldn't be the case.
After traveling through time, I still have the courage to be an overlord, my body is exceptionally strong, and I have never gotten sick.
However, regardless of whether you are sick or not, it is better to take precautions.
He has now removed his military power. Although there are still some things that need to be done, compared with before, he is already much more free.
At this time, he had finished handling some matters at hand and could take some time off.
After thinking about it, he turned around and walked towards his residence...
"Ladies, let's go to the hot springs!"
Liu Cheng greeted with a smile on his face and some exaggeration in his voice.
As Liu Cheng's voice fell, the two doors opened quickly, and Cai Yan and Dong Bai came out respectively.
Compared with before they got married, the two of them looked more radiant and charming.
This is the power of love, it can nourish people.
Of course, our uncle Liu Huang’s sweat for this also needs to be remembered.
Cai Yan did not hold the fattening white cat in his arms, and Dong Bai did not have the fat little dog running around beside him.
After getting married, Liu Cheng no longer allowed them to have contact with animals such as cats and dogs.
The two little ones who came as dowries were raised by servants at a place far away from their residence.
This is because animals such as cats and dogs have a certain probability of carrying Toxoplasma gondii.
Especially cats.
When Toxoplasma gondii is transmitted to pregnant women, it will affect the development of the baby, cause baby deformities, and even cause miscarriage.
Under the medical conditions of later generations, through pregnancy screening, deformed babies can be screened out, so that effective measures can be taken to terminate the pregnancy.
In this era, there is no way to screen babies for malformations in advance.
If you want to know the exact situation, you can only conduct a lottery after the baby is born.
Liu Cheng didn't dare to bet on this.
He must be responsible for himself, his children, and his family.
If the child is irreversibly harmed due to factors that could have been avoided, that would be really uncomfortable.
After getting married to Cai Yan and Dong Bai, Liu Cheng did not deliberately avoid certain matters or take any measures.
While I am happy, I am also waiting for the arrival of my child.
Therefore, he still attaches great importance to these.
However, Diao Chan is an exception.
Liu Cheng now pays attention to it instead of doing some happy things.
Sometimes, there are certain things that you need to do as the Romans do. If you can avoid it, just avoid it.
Otherwise, there may be some troubles when the time comes.
For example, if a concubine gives birth to a baby boy earlier than the first wife, this can easily lead to confusion.
Liu Cheng is not a person who likes trouble, so if you can avoid it, you still have to pay attention.
Of course, his avoidance was an avoidance through self-restraint, rather than letting Diao Chan take medicine.
Liu Cheng was very opposed to taking medicine because it could easily cause irreversible harm.
However, although Liu Cheng was trying to avoid this matter, if Diao Chan really gave birth to a child in advance and failed to become a human, there would be nothing to say. Just keep it.
There may be some troubles in the future, but no matter how troublesome they are, they are not as important as the children...
Liu Cheng stood here, looking at them with a smile, holding one in each hand, very happy.
He looked around and didn't see Diao Chan, so he shouted: "Chan'er, where are you? Come quickly, let's go together."
Diao Chan naturally heard Liu Cheng's greeting immediately and wanted to go to the hot springs with the emperor's uncle, but Liu Cheng called ladies.
She was a concubine, not a wife, so she could only pretend not to hear and stay in the room.
Otherwise, it would be a bit bad if he opened the door with the two ladies at the first time.
At this time, Diao Chan heard her husband calling her name specifically to let her out, and Diao Chan suddenly smiled like a flower.
He answered happily, opened the door with a small package, and walked quickly towards the emperor's uncle and the two ladies who were standing in the yard with small steps.
Diao Chan was wearing a long cloth skirt with the hem touching the ground.
Walking quickly like this in small steps, you can't see your shoes.
The whole thing looks like it is moving, very graceful.
"I have met my husband and my two sisters."
Diao Chan came to the three of them and greeted Liu Cheng, Cai Yan and Dong Bai with a smile.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "You don't have to be so polite.
Come on, let's go to the hot springs.
I sneezed a little, maybe I caught a cold, so I went to the hot springs for preventive treatment."
After that, he took the three girls out of the courtyard and walked towards a place.
There are hot springs here in Yushan.
When Liu Cheng asked people to build a house here in Yushan, he asked people to explore it first.
The house was built not too far from the hot spring.
Of course, according to Liu Cheng's wishes, it would be best to build a suitable hot spring in the yard.
In this case, you can take a hot spring bath anytime you want in the future.
However, the person in charge of the construction said that the topography was not suitable, so in the end, the principle of proximity was considered and the house was built in a place closest to the hot spring that was more suitable for building a larger house.
Liu Cheng's residence is about three miles away from the hot spring.
There is also snow on the road. The road has been repaired and is not difficult to travel.
There is snow falling in the sky, showering with snowflakes, stepping on the snow, a group of people walking on the road, it has a different flavor, and the mood becomes different...
After walking all the way, we came to the hot spring.
Here at the hot spring, a courtyard has also been built, a very small one.
There are mainly three houses and a small courtyard.
There is a hot spring with a diameter of more than five meters in the courtyard.
Houses are used for temporary rest and changing of clothes.
There are beds inside, so you can rest for a while if you are tired from bathing in the hot springs.
This belongs to Liu Cheng's private courtyard.
After arriving in the room, Liu Cheng and the four of them began to change clothes.
Among them, Liu Cheng was the most comfortable. He only had to go there and the three women started to change his clothes. He felt so comfortable that he didn't need them.
After Liu Cheng changed them, the three women began to change their own ones.
Sometimes we also help each other.
Of course, our Uncle Liu Huang sometimes takes the initiative to help with whatever he can.
So much so that before the hot spring started to soak, there was a chorus of singing and singing...
After a while, Liu Cheng and others walked out of the house and came to the edge of the hot spring.
Liu Cheng took off the big cloak he was wearing, put it in a small pavilion on the side, and took the lead to leave the hot spring.
The three girls also untied their cloaks and followed Liu Cheng to the edge of the hot spring.
After the cloak was untied, only a thin layer of inner clothing was left inside.
At this time, there were snowflakes in the sky and the air was very cold.
A layer of goosebumps instantly appeared on my body.
Immediately, I quickened my pace and came to the edge of the hot spring. I quickly entered the edge of the steaming hot spring.
"Wow, so comfortable!"
Dong Bai, whose entire body was submerged in the hot spring water, leaving only his head outside, could not help but cry out emotionally.
Cai Yan and Diao Chan also couldn't help but exhale softly, filled with joy.
It's really relaxing to soak in a hot spring in such weather, especially when you first enter.
The whole person was soaked in the warm water, and the feeling at that moment was as comfortable as an electric shock.
Liu Cheng sat here, watching the three girls soaking in the hot springs with him, and the satisfaction in his heart was beyond words.
These three women who have names in history and are all extremely beautiful are all our own!
The clothes the three of them wore were thin undershirts and the material was suitable for going into the water.
Originally, Liu Cheng designed and asked Diao Chan and others to make the kind of bikini worn by later generations of women, for bathing in hot springs.
As a result, after it was made, several people refused to wear it in the hot springs no matter what.
Some of Liu Chengxin's small expectations were dashed.
However, it cannot be regarded as a complete failure.
Because they were unwilling to wear them while soaking in hot springs, they were willing to put them on with blushing faces when they only got along with Liu Cheng in private.
It was obviously a very serious swimsuit, but it was interpreted by these beautiful women in this way, which made Liu Chengdu feel that it seemed a little inappropriate.
Especially after our Uncle Liu Huang made a big hole in the back of Diao Chan's swimming trunks, this good swimsuit became even more immodest, going further and further away...
There was heavy snowfall all around, and most of the snowflakes falling in the sky melted before they could fall on the hot springs. Only a small part fell on the face.
It's cool and very comfortable.
Liu Cheng and the other four entered the hot spring. At first, they all soaked here quietly, enjoying the warmth and comfort.
Of course, this is only the beginning.
When our Uncle Liu Huang quietly got into the hot spring and went swimming in the water, a pair of slender white legs appeared in front of his eyes and he touched them with his hands. This tranquility was quickly broken.
Suddenly there was a sound of frolic...
Several newlyweds have just experienced beauty. It is the time when honey is mixed with oil. Such playfulness can easily bring out some things.
Naturally our Uncle Liu Huang wants to play with dragons and phoenixes directly in the hot springs.
The three of them were shy, so of course they refused.
Finally, we arrived at the resting house over there, and in several separated rooms, we completed some things in batches...
Within one day, Liu Cheng, who had soaked in four hot springs in succession, lay on the bed and sneezed again.
He rubbed his nose and didn't pay attention, and fell asleep quickly.
It was at this time that the carriage carrying Yan's mother and daughter arrived at Yushan...
