December of the second year of Yongjia.
The Xiongnu and Han generals Shi Le, Liu Ling, and Wang Mi had just conquered Weijun, Jijun, and Dunqiu, and had surrendered more than fifty strong men from Wubao. They also selected more than fifty thousand strong men from the surrendered Han people to expand the army. troops.
This bandit group of Xiongnu, Zahu, and Han people instantly expanded to more than 50,000 people.
Suddenly, Luoyang, the imperial capital across the river, was in crisis again.
Seeing that the situation in Jizhou was getting worse and worse, the huge team of the married daughter of Youzhou Governor Wang Jun, escorted by Duan Xianbei cavalry, crossed the Jishui River in a mighty manner, carrying a large amount of money and belongings, and arrived. To Qingzhou.
The second year of Yongjia is coming to an end with mixed blessings in Liu Yu's opinion.
Qingzhou, Linzi.
When the team of Wang Jun's married daughter arrived in Linzi, on this cold winter day, everyone in Linzi city was attracted by this lively event.
Wang Jun, who was born in the Wang family of Taiyuan, saw the people in Linzi City stunned by the wedding ceremony.
Since Wang Jun's great-grandfather Wang Rou, he has served as a frontier official in the Eastern Han Dynasty, protecting the Huns and the general.
When it comes to Wang Jun's father Wang Chen, it is even more remarkable. He directly betrayed Cao Wei Emperor Cao Mao to Sima Zhao, causing Cao Mao to be killed, and instantly became a die-hard founding hero of the Jin Dynasty.
With Wang Jun's status and strength now monopolizing the northern territory of Youzhou, the Wang family of Taiyuan, with him as a benchmark, has reached a point where the world looks up to them.
Although Linzi Qi has been rich and prosperous since ancient times, no one can match the fame and wealth of the Wang family in Taiyuan today.
The accompanying dowry not only contained a large number of rare treasures, but also a large amount of money, silks, cloth, and even hundreds of servants and maids.
Moreover, at the end of the team entering the city, Liu Yu saw a long team of horses. He made a rough estimate and found that there were about 200 horses.
Although I had already known from the gift list that Wang Jun's daughter-in-law was very grand, it was still shocking when I saw it with my own eyes.
At this time, Liu Yi, the elder brother who was beside Liu Yu, couldn't help but said: "Jixing, you sold yourself for a good price."
After hearing this, Liu Yu looked a little embarrassed. He agreed to marry Wang Jun's daughter not just for the sake of the money.
After the majestic wedding procession entered the city, the elder brother Liu Yi, who had full authority at this time, became busy.
In this way, a few days later, this wedding, which symbolized the alliance between the forces of Youzhou and Qingzhou, was officially held.
Liu Yu, who had been single for two generations, was in a state of confusion throughout the whole process, just like a puppet controlled by everyone.
After a series of tedious and tiring ceremonies, this Jin Dynasty wedding finally came to an end.
When everything was over, Liu Yu was already drunk.
As the saying goes, "wine is a matchmaker for sex," Liu Yu had an indescribable feeling, and he could finally see his wife Wang Ze.
There is no need to take off the red hijab, because this thing only became popular in the Northern Dynasties, and no one knows about it in the Western Jin Dynasty.
After entering the bridal chamber, he still had to follow the new woman's guidance and follow the etiquette in the bridal chamber. This gave Liu You the opportunity to take a good look at his wife.
When Liu Yu looked at Wang Zezai carefully, he found that his new wife was a real beauty.
Nothing more.
Liu Yu must have thought in his heart, yes, he can only take a look for the time being, because his wife Wang Ze is actually a little Lolita.
She has just turned fourteen this year, and both her facial features and body shape look like they are just beginning to blossom.
Of course this is not Liu Yubian tai. He insists on marrying an underage girl. The national conditions of Jin Dynasty do not allow any other choice.
At the beginning, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan, promulgated a law that stipulated that middle school girls must marry before the age of fourteen. If any parents left their daughters unmarried, they would be punished.
In this way, if Liu Yu did not want to marry a minor, he would have to look for adult widows or divorced women.
Seeing Liu Yu just staring at her and not speaking for a long time, little Luoli Wang Ze, who kept his head down, finally couldn't help but raised his head, looked at Liu Yu, and said.
"My dear, do you think I am ugly?"
When Liu Yu heard this, he quickly said.
"No, I just feel that you are so young."
Yes, they are really young and have just started to develop. Liu Yu passed the visual inspection, and Xiao Luoli Wang basically still fell into the consistent range.
On the other hand, the maid behind Wang Ze's death was definitely a mature and beautiful woman.
When Xiao Luoli Wang heard this, he said with some dissatisfaction, "I am already fourteen this year. Before leaving, my sister told me that she gave birth to a son when she was fourteen, so I can serve my husband well. "
Hearing this, Liu Yu blushed a little. This little Luo Li Wang Ze said this so generously at such a young age, but she didn't look like the usual shy girl.
Liu foresaw that she would be like this, so he deliberately teased her and said.
"Oh? So it seems you know how to give birth to a son?"
Little King Luoli heard this and said in a small voice.
"Well, my sister taught me and gave me a scroll of silk paintings."
After saying that, Wang Ze's face turned red. Under the candlelight, he actually had a slightly coquettish posture and continued in a softer voice.
"My sister also said that on the wedding night, she would take out the silk painting and put it with her husband, together..."
Although the last words were so weak that there was no sound, the first half of it had almost made Liu Yu's blood boil. If it hadn't been for the various three-year starts and the maximum death penalty in the world, he would have made a huge and irreparable mistake. .
"Ah? There's no need for it now. Let's wait until it's just the two of us and no outsiders." Liu Yu said, secretly thinking about some indescribable situations. After all, he didn't refuse outright, but stayed vaguely. Some expectations.
"Is there any outsider in the room now?" Xiao Luoli Wangze looked confused when he heard Liu Yu's words.
After hearing Wang Ze's words, Liu Yu also looked puzzled.
Liu Yu looked around and saw that there were not just others, but several people. There was a personal maid beside Xiao Luoli Wang, and two maids holding lamps on the other side. There were two more at each of the two doorways inside and outside. Young maid, there were seven of them alone, didn't she see it?
Or is this little Loli King blind?
When he thought of this, Liu Yu quickly took a closer look at her eyes. She was not blind. Not only was she not blind, but her eyes were still beautiful. She had a starry look at a young age.
Wang Ze seemed to understand what Liu Yu meant, and suddenly covered his mouth with a smile and said: "Husband, these are my personal people, and they are not outsiders. Sister said, they were my maids before they got married, and they will be my maids after they got married." Concubines, if your husband likes them, just keep them; if he doesn’t, just replace them."
Hearing another "sister said" from Wang Ze's mouth, Liu Yu instantly became happy. If the "sister" Wang Ze mentioned was here, he could not wait to hug and kiss them to express his gratitude.
Liu Yu couldn't help but look at the personal maid he had been paying attention to just now. She was tall, fair-skinned, and had long legs.
Although his eyes were on a human face, they seemed to emit a green light like a hungry wolf.
"Husband, do you want to look at those silk paintings together tonight?" Little Luo Liwang regained her shy expression and asked in a low voice.
But she didn't get a reply from Liu Yu. When she raised her head, she found that Liu Yu was staring directly at her personal maid Yunzhu with gleaming hungry eyes.
Wang Ze was secretly happy. It seemed that he was right to choose Yunzhu to marry.
She raised her voice and asked again, and then Liu Yu was brought back from the pig brother state.
Of course, Liu Yu hurriedly agreed. Nonsense, of course you have to agree to this kind of thing. Even if you can't do anything, you can still communicate with your little sister. By the way, you can also deepen your relationship with other girls who meet the age requirements.
Wang Ze immediately ordered, "Yunzhu, please serve your husband and go to the inner room to change clothes first."
Seeing Liu Yu and the maid Yunzhu entering the inner room separated by a curtain, a proud smile appeared on Wang Ze's face.
Wang Ze thought to herself that she had long heard that the husband she was going to marry was a rough military man, the kind of warrior who could defeat thousands of enemies on the battlefield. She was worried that she would not be liked by her husband because she was thin and weak.
He was afraid that he would become as miserable as the concubines who were no longer favored in his father Wang Jun's backyard, so Wang Ze put a lot of thought into choosing a maid to marry him.
Little Luo Liwang thought for a while, and suddenly thought that her husband was already over 20 years old, but he had never been married. Could it be that there was something about Long Yang and Duan Xiu?
In order to be foolproof and win the favor of her husband after marrying far away, Xiao Luoli Wang chose a few handsome young men.
However, based on the performance just now, there is no need for these young men who are more charming than women, which makes little Luo Li and Wang Ze sigh a big sigh of relief.
Thinking of this, Wang Ze remembered that those few boys were still outside listening to orders. She quickly called a maid and ordered her to send those few boys away, so that she would not be troubled if they continued to stay nearby. Irritability and nausea.
Qingzhou, south of Jinan County.
The land in winter is completely white, and except for the heavy snow covering everything, there is nothing on the desolate wilderness.
But soon, at the far end of the straight road, a mighty team was coming along the road from west to east.
There are probably less than two thousand people in this team, and they are all weathered and weathered.
Everyone is carrying a lot of luggage, weapons and food, and the clothes on everyone are all kinds of colorful, just like beggars marching together.
This team did not carry any flags, nor did they have any golden drums. They just marched eastward spontaneously.
At the front of the team, a man with broad shoulders and thick back wearing a gray leather robe was looking at the faint shadow of the city ahead.
At this time, a man with a face full of black stains came up to him and said.
"Brother Cao, ahead is Nanding City, which is the boundary of Qingzhou."
This man in gray robe is Cao Yi, one of the Donglai rebels.
Cao Yi was originally a strong man in Donglai County and had a good relationship with Wang Mi. After Liu Bogen's defeat, he continued to follow him. Even when he was repeatedly defeated and routed by Gou Xi and other Jin troops in Henan, he never abandoned Wang Mi.
However, this time, Cao Yi made up his mind that he would no longer follow Wang Mi. He completely cut ties with Wang Mi and led his disciple Erlang from Donglai County back to Qingzhou.
I heard that Qingzhou is now dominated by Liu Jixing. Although he and Liu Jixing did not deal with each other very much back then, and the relationship between the two was even a little awkward, Cao Ni thought that as long as his descendants from the sect and the same county and township party could get With Liu Jixing's acceptance, it doesn't matter even if he steps into the mud.
Because Cao Yi thought about Liu Jixing, no matter how bad his character was.
He should also be concerned about his friendship with his former colleagues and fellow countrymen.
Give these two thousand men a way to survive.
Because Wang Mi had disappointed Cao Yi too much. In Cao Yi's mind, the former Wang Mi was a man who stood upright and vowed to do something great.
At that time, Cao Yi thought that Wang Mi was extremely brave and versatile with his strategies. He was definitely a leader in the world, and could even pioneer great things. He was almost comparable to Han Taizu Liu Bang or Wei Emperor Cao Cao.
Therefore, although the path of the rebels in the past few years has been really ups and downs, and there were several times during which he was almost in danger of losing his head and body, Cao Yi never had the slightest fear. He thought that since he wanted to Following a hero like Emperor Taizu Gao of the Han Dynasty, I must not show any sign of cowardice.
No one in the world has heard that Han, Peng, Ying, and Cao under Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty were sometimes timid and afraid of death.
But that all soon changed.
The image of Wang Mi in Cao Yi's heart has completely changed.
Although Wang Mi is now the general who conquered the east of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, Jiajie, the military commander of the five states of Qing, Yan, Xu, Yang, and Yu, and the Duke of Donglai County, he can almost compete with the Xiongnu in the Xiongnu Han Kingdom. He is a minister who is parallel to the royal family, but Cao Yi knows how all this came about.
All of this was obtained by Wang Mi in exchange for the lives of the only remaining disciples of Donglai County.
It was obtained from the Huns with the lives of the children of Donglai County.
Cao Yi thought he was not a good person, but when he saw Wang Mi, Shi Le, Liu Ling and others leading Hu bandits in the counties of Hebei to burn, kill, and loot, and everywhere they passed was white land, Cao Yi felt ashamed. He discovered Compared with these people, I don't even have the qualifications to be a bad person.
Moreover, Cao Yi saw the hatred in the eyes of those Hebei scholars who surrendered far outweighed the fear. Cao Yi felt more and more panicked as he looked at the old faces of Donglai County among the fewer and fewer troops.
Finally, three days ago, taking the opportunity to go out to plunder winter grain, Cao Ni, together with Xu Miao and others, led a total of 2,000 people to secretly break away from Wang Mi's army.
They decided to cross Hebei, cross the Yellow River and Jishui, and return to Qingzhou.
Even if he took refuge with Liu Yu, who originally looked down upon him, he would no longer be a lackey of the Huns and barbarians.
