Hearing Yuan Shu ask Ju Shou, Tian Feng smiled slightly.
"My lord, after you set out, you were afraid of changes in Yanzhou and Qingzhou, so you went directly to Pingyuan County to take charge."
Yuan Shu nodded. It would be great for Jushu to be able to take charge of Pingyuan County. With his ability, he would never miss any opportunity.
"Okay, let Zezhu temporarily stay in Pingyuan County, and at the same time order the Polu Army and Huwei Army to go to Pingyuan County and let them be deployed at their disposal."
"promise."
After doing all this, Yuan Shu was finally able to take a break from the war he had been fighting for so long.
From the beginning of the Eighteen Route Princes' crusade against Dong Zhuo, to the battle of Jizhou, the battle of Heishan, and then the battle of Youzhou, there was no stopping at all.
Go straight all the way to the Yuan Mansion in Xindu City, which was specially built by Yuan Shu for Yuan Ji after he escaped from Luoyang to house his eldest brother.
"Little brother."
Knowing that Yuan Shu was coming, Yuan Ji had already been waiting outside the door.
"Brother, there's no need for this, let's go in."
The two of them entered the Yuan Mansion hand in hand.
"Brother, as the eldest brother, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
He was quite pleased to see that his little brother who used to ask for this and that from him has now grown into a prince.
"Brother, you will always be my big brother at any time. There is no need to be rigid between us. There is nothing to be embarrassed about."
Looking at Yuan Ji, Yuan Shu couldn't help but smile.
"Little brother, you are not young anymore, but you are not married yet. Big brother wants to find a wife for you?"
Hearing Yuan Ji's words, Yuan Shu couldn't help but be startled, thinking that after so many years of time traveling, he still seemed to be a young boy.
This is so embarrassing. Others in time travel are hugging each other, with beautiful women everywhere, but he is busy fighting all day long. It seems that he is really losing money, but now that the country is in turmoil, he has no time to spend time with his children.
"Brother, with the world in turmoil now, how can I have time to do this?"
Yuan Shu thought for a moment and shook his head. It is said that there is no woman in his heart, so he drew his sword and was a god of nature.
"Brother, do you know that your marriage is not only your own business, it is also a major civil and military event in Youji and Hebei."
I had long thought that Yuan Shu would refuse, otherwise with his appearance and status, why would he not have a woman by his side? Although Linglong can be considered a woman, he is only a domestic slave after all and cannot be on the stage.
"Brother, what do you say?"
Now Yuan Shu was also depressed. If he didn't get married, he would do nothing in the civil and military affairs of Youji.
"Little brother, do you know why Xun Chen, Xun You, Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhao Yun and other civil and military officials follow you?"
Yuan Ji smiled slightly, but he talked about something else.
"Why? The world is in turmoil, and I have the best hope of ending the chaos, so they will risk their lives to follow me."
This question does not trouble Yuan Shu, and he will not foolishly say that he has the aura of a king.
"Yes, these people are following you now. Have you ever thought that the general will inevitably die before the battle. If you have a shortcoming, where will these people go, and where will the foundation you have laid belong to?"
Yuan Ji's words made Yuan Shu fall into deep thought. To be honest, it had been so long since he traveled back to the present, and he seemed to have never thought about such a problem.
"Little brother, so the big brother wants to find a wife for you not only for your own sake, but also for the sake of the civil and military forces of the two states who are under your command, and for the sake of the people of Youji and Hebei states. When your child is born in the near future, these followers
Your civil and military skills are truly established, so you must not refuse."
Seeing that Yuan Shu was deep in thought, Yuan Ji spoke again and continued to persuade Yuan Shu while the iron was hot.
"I wonder which rich girl my eldest brother has chosen for me."
After a while, Yuan Shu spoke quietly.
When Yuan Shu agreed, Yuan Ji was overjoyed.
"Don't worry, little brother, the person chosen by the elder brother is definitely worthy of you. That is Cai Yan, the daughter of the Cai family of Chenliu and Cai Yongcai, the world's great literary giant."
Chen Liucai's family?
The great writer Cai Yong?
Cai Yan?
Isn’t that Cai Wenji, the most talented woman in the Three Kingdoms who is famous for future generations? Isn’t that the tragic woman whose husband died just after she got married, and was then kidnapped to the Xiongnu grassland?
"Big brother is talking about Cai Wenji?"
Not sure, Yuan Shu asked.
"Cai Yan is indeed Wen Ji. Do you know this girl?"
Hearing Yuan Shu say the word Cai Yan, Yuan Ji couldn't help but be stunned.
"I have heard a little bit, but I only heard that this woman is extremely talented. She knows literature, is familiar with music, and is good at calligraphy. She is an out-and-out talented woman."
Although Yuan Shu had never heard of Cai Wenji, there were many stories about Cai Wenji circulated in his previous life, and he knew that she was a first-class talented woman.
"Well, what I said is true. Cai Wenji really deserves to be called a talented woman. It is reported that she can listen to the music and distinguish the piano at the age of nine, which is really commendable."
Since Yuan Shu knew Cai Wenji's name, it would be easy to explain.
"Brother, Cai Yong is serving Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, and Dong Zhuo has a blood feud with me. How could Cai Yong agree to marry his daughter to me?"
Cai Wenji was not only a talented woman but also a first-class beauty. Otherwise, she would not have been valued by the Huns soldiers and presented to King Zuo Xian. King Zuo Xian would not have taken her back to the grassland to live for twelve years.
"Brother, you don't have to think about this. As long as you agree, I will definitely marry Cai Wenji to Jizhou in all her glory."
Yuan Ji looked confident.
"The eldest brother is the father. Since the eldest brother has decided, Yuan Shu has nothing to refuse. Everything depends on the eldest brother's orders."
Since Yuan Ji is like this, Yuan Shu doesn't care, just leave it to him.
"Okay, little brother, just wait until you become the groom's official."
Yuan Ji nodded excitedly, his eyes as if he had found some particularly interesting toy.
"Brother, if nothing happens, I will go back home."
Now that the matter was over, Yuan Shu did not stay and left Yuan's Mansion to return to his Prefectural Mufu.
"Sir, you are back,"
When Yuan Shu returned home, Linglong hurried out to greet him.
"Well, Linglong will bathe and change clothes for me."
"promise."
After soaking comfortably in the big tub, Yuan Shu couldn't help but let out a deep breath.
"Sir, you've worked hard these past two days."
Linglong appeared behind Yuan Shu, gently caressed Yuan Shu's head with a pair of white hands, and began to massage him.
"Linglong, my eldest brother wants to help me find a wife."
After hearing Yuan Shu's words, Linglong's hand that was massaging Yuan Shu suddenly stopped, but immediately started squeezing again.
"Linglong, how long have you been out with me?"
Without looking back, Yuan Shu asked Linglong gently.
"Master, it has been eight years since you were released to Changshan."
Linglong's words penetrated deeply into Yuan Shu's heart.
Eight years, how many eight years can a woman have in her prime years? In these eight years, Linglong has been doing her best to serve herself and take care of her life.
