As you wish, one piece of water will cover most of the chapter.
The East Palace is located in the southeast corner of the imperial city. It is very small in scale and can even be described as "simple". It is just the small area of the palace that is designated as the "East Palace".
What's interesting is that none of the Central Plains dynasties, including Liang, Tang, and Jin, ever established a prince. Liu Chengyou was the first person to be explicitly established as a prince. In fact, if it weren't for the special national conditions of the Han Dynasty and Liu Zhiyuan's physical condition, Liu Chengyou really wouldn't be able to make it. Even if Liu Chengxun dies, it is more likely that Liu Chengyou will succeed to the throne as King of Zhou in the future.
It was early morning, dawn had not yet arrived, the morning light was still deep, and the entire imperial city was shrouded in hazy color.
East Palace, Prince's bedroom, on the couch.
Liu Chengyou woke up very early, sat up, took a few deep breaths of cool air, shook his head, and shook away some of the drowsiness in his head. Turning his head to look, a graceful body wrapped in brocade came into view. Although his vision was dim, the vague outline was even more alluring.
Da Fu's figure, after personal experience and measurement, is indeed good. Although he is not as "strong" as Gao Huaijin and lacks some experience, he still has the charm he should have. Women of this era are indeed precocious.
Up to now, Liu Chengyou only has three women, none of whom are younger than him, referring only to biological age.
Turning slightly to the side, Liu Chengyou looked calmly at his princess. She had been a bride for only two days, and her face was as beautiful as a flower. He reached out his hand, rubbed it gently on his cheek, and smoothed a few strands of hair that hit his collarbone. At this time, Liu Chengyou's body was calm, his mind was empty, and there was no color reaction.
The feeling that Dafu gave Liu Chengyou was indeed unusual, or maybe he had a favorable impression due to his preconceptions. When they first met that day, Liu Chengyou immediately remembered those bright eyes, the gentleness that revealed strength, the refreshing and confident temperament, and the good education of a noble lady...
The most important thing is that when they first met, Da Fu dared to look directly into Liu Chengyou's calm and emotionless eyes. Instead of showing any timidity, he took the initiative to ask: "Are you His Royal Highness?"
Also the daughter of a general, Mrs. Gao did not dare to look directly at Liu Chengyou when she was in front of him. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the two of them were in the bridal chamber when they first met Gao Huaijin...
When I went to Fu Mansion that day, although I saw the big talisman, I didn't say much. There was no particularly in-depth exchange of words as soon as they met.
A good first impression without disappointing him is enough.
The relationship between Liu Chengyou and his harem is basically that he gets on the bus first and pays for it later. There is no time or patience to cultivate feelings beforehand.
He stood up calmly. Although his movements were gentle, he still made some rustling noises. He casually put on a velvet robe, crossed the bead curtain, and walked outside. After Liu Chengyou got up, Mrs. Fu slowly opened her eyes, which looked bright under the dim light. She looked out and blinked. He raised his hand to cover the cheek that Liu Chengyou had touched, and it became rosy.
The palace lantern in the palace was lit, and under the dim and bright light, Liu Chengyou's focused shadow was cast to the side of the case. When Dafu stepped out of his bed wrapped in a thick robe, he saw such a scene. As Fu moved around, his movements were still a little awkward. After all, Fang Po had only been doing this for two days.
Early in the morning, Liu Chengyou was already involved in handling government affairs, and several memorials with instructions were stacked on the case. It wasn't until the faint fragrance came that Liu Chengyou came back to his senses and turned to look at the big talisman. Looking at it from an upward angle, it was really big.
"Are you awake?" Liu Chengyou asked casually.
His eyes fell on the memorial in his hand again, his handsome eyebrows narrowed slightly, and there was another memorial about food. During the lean season, food is always a big problem.
Mrs. Fu responded softly. Seeing Liu Chengyou's indifferent reaction, but not showing any concern for a little woman, she quietly sat next to him and looked at his profile. As that saying goes, men who work seriously are always the most attractive. Da Fu was an unusual woman, but because of Liu Chengyou's diligent performance, she felt satisfied.
Fu's adaptability is very strong. After entering the East Palace for two days, she has gradually become familiar with her. Liu Chengyou treats her with kindness and courtesy, and is very passionate at night... Although she has a calm personality just like the rumors. He is taciturn, but in Da Fu's eyes, he is a symbol of majesty.
"It's cold, why don't you sleep more?" Liu Chengyou put down the memorial in his hand and turned his attention to Da Fu.
Faced with Liu Chengyou's sudden tenderness, Da Fu was a little flattered. He smiled softly and gracefully, but not like a little woman, and responded warmly: "Your Highness is diligent in political affairs. How can I covet the warmth of the bed? I would rather serve the pen and ink by your side." .”
Liu Chengyou was still surprised by her answer. His eyes flickered and he picked up the memorial he had just put down and handed it to her: "Have a look. I heard that you are wise and reasonable, and you often have insights when things happen. It's just right. What do you think?"
Seeing this, Dafu didn't answer it at all, and shook his head without hesitation: "How can I listen to a woman's opinions on national affairs? I have little knowledge. I just want to serve your highness. I dare not look at anything else." thing!"
Hearing this, Liu Chengyou's eyes flashed with vague satisfaction. He put down the memorial and said to himself: "King Linqing and Chanzhou Jieduguo... Well, Guo Rong reported that there was a famine in Weibo and Chanzhou. , more than a hundred people died."
Not paying attention to the pause in Liu Chengyou's words, Da Fu furrowed his eyebrows lightly, and just sighed: "I came to Beijing with my father. Along the way, I saw people with hungry faces, but I never thought that there would be such a tragedy as death from hunger!"
"Due to Du Chongwei's rebellion last year, that military disaster severely damaged the prefectures and counties around Yedu. Production did not resume after the war, causing the disaster to this day!" Liu Chengyou sighed:
"Tokyo is also short of food. Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, it has been troubled by the problem of food and clothing. Especially in Tokyo, there are hundreds of thousands of mouths to feed. Thinking about it, it is really a headache!"
Listening to Liu Chengyou's lament, Mr. Fu kept true to his words and did not make any unreasonable comments. But when he saw Liu Chengyou frowning, he showed his virtuous demeanor, and softly comforted him: "Your Highness, don't worry too much, as long as the world is peaceful, things will get better. With Your Highness so concerned about the country and the people, and working hard to govern, the people will surely be able to live in peace." , Livelihood and prosperity for the people.”
Da Fu's small mouth is quite a coincidence.
Liu Chengyou's sadness faded and he said, "That's right. The most difficult period last year was over. As long as the country is stable and everything goes well, life will get better..."
Seeing that Liu Chengyou was calm and calm, showing confidence and calmness, Fu's beautiful eyes curved and she gave him a warm smile.
At first light, Liu Chengyou was having his breakfast in the palace. Da Fu, Gao and the pregnant Geng were all present. This was the first time that these three women were present at the same time.
Eating was still very simple, green and healthy, but with Geng, a pregnant woman, Liu Chengyou took some kidney-nourishing supplements.
Very quiet, eating without talking.
There is a small plate of green vegetables on the table. The green vegetables in winter and spring are very refreshing. In addition, the chef's skills are good, they are fresh and tender, and they have a feeling of melting in your mouth.
Although the atmosphere in the hall was not harmonious, it was not rigid either. In front of Liu Chengyou, there was no atmosphere like "Shura Field". After he had finished eating and left, the three women in the palace made some strange noises. Da Fu and the Gao family, two noble girls, had similar "like interests" and chatted with each other with smiles. The Geng family was as usual, cooing and tender, with a low-key hand on her belly.
...
Liu Chengyou was happily married to his new beautiful woman, and the news spread to the other side of the river very quickly.
"This is unreasonable! This is too much!" In Puzhou City, in Jiedu Mansion, "Green Lord" Li Chongxun didn't say anything, but Li Shouzhen couldn't restrain his anger, threw his porcelain cup and drank.
Previously, he was in Puzhou, looking forward to the arrival of his daughter with his son, and was even ready to go to Tokyo to welcome her in person. As a result, Fu Yanqing suddenly received a letter of termination of the contract. He was shocked. He sent letters and sent people to ask why he broke the contract, but there was no reply.
Now, I understand.
"Do you really think that I, Li, am easy to bully?" Furious, Li Shouzhen looked around and spat at the few confidants in front of him.
He has some thoughts on Dafu.
"Send someone to Guanzhong and contact the Shu commander Zhang Qianzhao!" Li Shouzhen was so angry that he gave orders directly, feeling a little dizzy.
"You can't be charismatic!" As soon as he finished speaking, a very shrewd assistant officer immediately admonished him: "This is a way to bring disaster. If the court finds out about it, it will definitely lead to disaster. The fate of the Han Dynasty is here, so don't act rashly. !”
No matter how cruel and incompetent Jie Zhen is, there are always one or two wise men with clear minds and outstanding knowledge under their command, or perhaps it is because of the foil. The official in front of me is Zhao Xiuji. He is now an official in Jiedu, Hedong. He has followed Li Shouzhen for many years. Knowing that he has different ambitions, he has repeatedly advised him.
A large number of facts prove that good medicine tastes bitter and loyal advice offends the ears. Li Shouzhen is not so easy to persuade.
"The imperial court bullies me so much and wants to take away my wife. Is this the end of it?" Li Chongxun, his son next to him, excitedly assisted Li Shouzhen.
Upon hearing this, Li Shouzhen immediately fluttered his sleeves and stopped Zhao Xiuji who was still about to speak. However, he glared at his son again, thought about it, but did not continue to mention the matter of contacting the Shu army.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the situation in Kaifeng. I heard that the Emperor of Han is not in good health!" Li Shouzhen said coldly and ordered to his general.
"yes!"
But he ignored Zhao Xiuji's intention and ordered him to retreat.
"Dad, are you going to let this go?" Li Chongxun looked resentful.
"Huh! Of course not!" Li Shouzhen said with a gloomy expression: "But we can't act hastily. Looking at the situation in Guanzhong, the Shu army is also useless. The 50,000-strong army has been delayed for so long and can't even make an advance!"
"Come here, go and invite Master Zong Lun!" After feeling sulky for a while, Li Shouzhen said again.
Zong Lun was a monk who was good at divination, and he used magic to tell Li Shouzhen that he had the title of king. First, the daughter of the Fu family was "indescribably valuable" and asked for a marriage contract, and then a master gave advice.
Li Shouzhen is convinced.
