Just when Chen Xi was wondering if he had gone astray somewhere, he suddenly saw a sneaky figure outside his door.
"Who is outside the door?" Chen Xi said unhappily. He couldn't help but feel that he was a little too lenient to the maid and actually hid outside and eavesdropped.
"Ahem, cough, cough, Yun Niang, please go out first." Liu Bei coughed twice and leaned out from behind the door. Seeing Chen Yun behind Chen Xi, he waved to Chen Yun to leave first.
Chen Xi was slightly embarrassed. He didn't expect that it was Liu Bei who stood up to greet him, "Master Xuande, please sit down. Yun'er, you go to the back room to prepare the meal. Don't let anyone disturb you."
Chen Yun nodded, then left, closing the door behind her.
Liu Bei was sitting on the chair opposite and didn't know what to say. Chen Xi looked at him and wanted to laugh, so he sighed and said, "Mr. Xuande, you look like something is wrong now. What went wrong? This is what needs to be done.
"
Liu Bei didn't answer. He just looked embarrassed and couldn't sit still. He opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
"We are the only two left here, and no one will eavesdrop. Besides, who are we afraid of now? What will happen if we can't withstand it?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, how powerful he and Liu Bei are on the map of the Central Plains now, how powerful are they?
What's wrong with it?
"Ahem, cough, cough, this matter is not easy to solve." Liu Bei looked embarrassed, still a little embarrassed to say it.
"I have a very strict tone. Besides, Mr. Xuande has come to me, why don't you tell me?" Chen Xi's eyebrows twitched, and he really didn't know what to say.
"Ahem, cough, cough, my wife is pregnant." Liu Bei said with some embarrassment.
"This is a good thing." Chen Xi just started to speak, then realized and looked at Liu Bei in confusion, "Ahem, cough, cough, you are not talking about Mrs. Zhang, are you?"
Liu Bei nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. If other concubines were pregnant, would he not only be happy but also be so embarrassed and flustered? Only Zhang, the wife he planned to marry, would be like this.
It can be said that before the future of the Gan family, Liu Bei in Yecheng was always taken care of by the Zhang family, and marrying the Zhang family had the connotation of appeasing the entire northern family. In addition, the two of them were lovers and wanted to be a concubine, so Zhang
When he was helping Liu Bei in Yecheng, no one paid much attention to him.
As for the Zhen family, after the Zhang family removed the identity of the head of the family and passed it on to Zhen Mi, she returned to the Zhang family in Qinghe. After all, she was the daughter of the Zhang family in Qinghe. The Zhen family had no intention of stopping her from remarrying, so she would go back to her natal family to wait for a new one.
Just change your clothes and remarry.
Originally, the Han Dynasty didn't care much about remarriage, and generally if the woman remarried, if the woman had children, and the original husband's family didn't mind, even the children would be taken away.
But forget about the situation of the Zhen family. Mrs. Zhang is Zhen Yi’s legitimate wife. Generally speaking, it is unlikely that she will remarry. But after Zhen Yi died, Mrs. Zhang only gave birth to one Zhen Mi, and the other Zhen Jiang
, Zhen Tuo, Zhen Rong are all concubines, Zhen Mi is the only legitimate daughter, so she definitely cannot be taken away.
Mrs. Zhang was not used to remarrying and living in the Zhen family, so she went back to her parents' home without Zhen Mi. The Zhang family in Qinghe was also from a wealthy family. Although it was not the super wealthy family later, it was not a joke. Everyone knew about Zhang.
She was planning to remarry Liu Bei, so she didn't treat her poorly.
Of course, the Zhang family is also quite reserved and has not made too many moves. Perhaps part of this is because the person in charge of the Zhang family is no longer of the Zhang family.
It was true that Zhang's father, Zhang Jin, was in charge of the family in the previous generation, but the sons of Zhang Jin's lineage were not very successful. After Zhang Jin's death, the position of head of the family fell to Zhang Chen's lineage. In addition, the Zhang family originally plotted against the Zhen family.
There was no mercy, and the relationship between the two parties has indeed faded.
Therefore, Mrs. Zhang was not used to living in the Zhang family and moved to Liu Bei's place. Thinking about it, Chen Xi had also met Mr. Zhang at Liu Bei's place early in the morning, so it was normal for something to happen. After all, Mrs. Zhang was not nothing.
A girl who understands, it would be strange if something doesn't happen when the ears and temples are rubbing together.
Chen Xi silently gave Liu Bei a thumbs up. He really admired Liu Bei. This was really impressive.
"Stop giving the thumbs up and tell me what to do quickly?" Liu Bei slapped Chen Xi's thumbs-up hand aside.
"What should I do? What else can I do? Get married as soon as possible, and speed up the Three Letters and Six Etiquettes. Anyway, if people ask, they will say that we made the arrangement two years ago. Anyway, I know everything I should know about my strategy by now, and no one will doubt it.
." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, what else can he say?
"Is this possible? Others will see through it. Even if the three books and six etiquettes are accelerated, it will take a month or two to solve." Liu Bei said with a wry smile.
"How many months has it been now?" Chen Xi thought for a moment and asked.
"It's been two months." Liu Bei said awkwardly.
"Why don't you hurry up? We'll go get married tomorrow and settle the rest together. Mrs. Zhang must know the seriousness. Who else knows about this?" Chen Xi said helplessly.
"Besides you and me, only Zhang's personal maid and Gan know about it." Liu Bei said with a wry smile. Fortunately, Zhang came to Liu Bei as soon as he found out, otherwise it would have been delayed for another month. It would be difficult to cover up.
.
"Okay, I'm going to ask for a bride today. Which day is the auspicious day?" Chen Xi began to count the days as he said, "February 17th is a good day, this is it."
"Aren't you a little anxious?" Liu Bei said awkwardly.
"It's better to be anxious than to be seen out." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, "Xuan Degong went to Wen Ru and asked him to quickly arrange the arrangements and start issuing invitations. I ordered people to go to Chang'an today to transfer the approved marriage.
Take it down."
"Thank you, thank you so much." Liu Bei thanked him with his hands. He really didn't know what to say. However, Liu Bei might also feel embarrassed, so he changed the topic, "Zichuan, how are you and Mi'er doing? Is there any progress?
"
Chen Xi looked Liu Bei up and down, and Liu Bei looked a little embarrassed. To be honest, he just wanted to take advantage of Chen Xi, although it was not a big advantage.
"It's still early. It's almost impossible to get the third document. I need to think of other ways." Seeing Liu Bei's admission, Chen Xi was no longer interested in continuing to inquire about those details.
"Yes, this kind of thing happens once or twice, but the third time it will be much more difficult." Liu Bei nodded to show that he understood.
"So I'm thinking of a way." Chen Xi said extremely calmly, "Fortunately, she only needs one correct word, so she's not too anxious."
"But are you sure others can't see it?" Liu Bei added and then turned back.
"If you can't see it, it doesn't matter if you can. Anyway, it's fine if Mr. Xuande and Mrs. Zhang are willing." Chen Xi said angrily, but luckily Zhang and Liu Bei had already gone through part of the process, otherwise it would definitely make people laugh.
"It is true that I am greedy for pleasure." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Zichuan, you should be more careful in the future, so as not to harm others."
