Chapter 505 The Problem of the Bedroom
When he left Zhongdu, it was already that afternoon. Qin Lei did not force his troops to station in Shibalipu and settled two girls. He found the King of Zhou by the bonfire.
"Things are not as bad as you think." Qin Lei said in a deep voice as he watched King Zhou sit there in a daze.
The King of Zhou looked up at him and said in a leisurely manner: "Shenjing City has been controlled by Chu Guiyi. My forces in the capital must have been wiped out. Now when I go back, I will fall into the trap." He said with a wry smile: "I think I'd better not go back."
Qin Lei sneered and said, "It's okay if you don't want to go back, just pay your living expenses."
"After all, I'm your elder brother..." King Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "I have to pay for two meals?"
"I'm visiting relatives for a few days, of course I don't have to pay for it." Qin Lei took down the steamed buns on the fire and threw them into the King of Zhou's plate and said: "After a long time, I'll eat and drink freely. This is clear."
Looking at the golden steamed buns on the plate, King Zhou smiled and said, "Just eat this for dinner?"
"Marriage is very expensive. I have to eat bran and vegetables for several years to entertain my brother-in-law." Qin Lei said seriously: "Your sister will also eat bran when she gets married." He took out a small pot of pot from behind and threw it to King Zhou and said: "If you really can't get used to it, just apply some."
"What?" King Zhou said with a vigilant look on his face: "You can't eat anyone to death, right?"
Qin Lei rolled his eyes, picked out some yellow sauce from the jar, evenly applied it to the steamed bun slices, and ate it in big mouthfuls: "Peanut butter, don't you like it."
King Zhou followed Qin Lei's appearance and tried it. He found that the crispy steamed buns with sweet sauce were very delicious. After eating five slices in a row, he wiped his mouth and said, "It's not good-looking, but it tastes very good!" Drinking some mountain spring water will make you feel comfortable that you haven't seen for a long time.
Qin Lei then said to him: "Why didn't the King of Qi secretly die? It is said that he should ascend the throne as soon as possible."
King Zhou's mood had calmed down, and Zhihui returned to his heart: "What should be a concern? It may be the attitude of several major clans, or the reaction of the military." He suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "He is borrowing the authority of his father and knowing the dissidents!"
"You're right," Qin Lei smiled and said, "but he didn't say the point."
The King of Zhou listened intently. He knew that Qin Lei was much better than himself, so he heard him say in a deep voice: "The key to the coup is to be ruthless or fast! Just like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, you must not leave a chance to breathe!"
The firelight shone on Qin Lei's face, making his eyes dark and dark. The King of Zhou said in a panic: "This person can play with the great Chu in the midst of applause, and has the ambition of the world. He is really the enemy of our country!" But the situation is stronger than that of others, and now he is no longer in the State of Chu. Not only is he powerless to Qin Lei, he also has to beg him backwards.
Qin Lei saw the strange expression of King Zhou, but he said indifferently: "The current performance of King Qi just shows that he does not have the confidence to win. Looking at the Nanchu country, there is only one person who can put this pressure on him..."
"Zhu Lie!" King Zhou shouted in surprise: "So, Shangzhuguo is standing opposite to Chu Guiyi?!" When he said this, his eyes radiated with green light.
"I didn't say that," Qin Lei shook his head irresponsibly: "Maybe Zhu Hongjun is watching, he is not very politically aware, so it's not surprising that he has any reaction."
King Zhou rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "No matter what, if you have a glimmer of hope, you must make the best efforts!"
Seeing that he was a little lost, Qin Lei poured cold water and said, "If you tied up, you might want to seek credit."
The King of Zhou looked at Qin Lei eagerly and smiled embarrassedly: "If you say this, you must have a way, so don't keep it from being kept in a position."
Qin Lei laughed and scolded, "Don't call me so intimate, I'm so frightened." After saying that, he said seriously, "Zhu Lie's mentality is easy to grasp. It doesn't matter who you two are, as long as it doesn't affect his career."
"Do three things well, and the lieutenants will completely fall to you." The King of Zhou listened attentively, and saw Qin Lei stretching out three fingers and saying, "First, promising to marry your aunt to Zhu Hongjun, this is called making friends with him; second, ensuring that the Dajiang Navy who did not interfere with the lieutenants and allowing him to freely appoint the successor, this is called seducing him to benefit; third..." Looking at the King of Zhou, he slowly said, "I named him the King of Zhenjiang, and his inheritance and his eternal replacement, and forever in the south of Jiangnan, this is called thanking him with kindness. Three-pronged approach will definitely make him feel the five inside and devote himself to the heart!"
The King of Zhou said with a tight expression: "The first two are all okay, but my Great Chu has never had a precedent for being a king of a different surname. Isn't this too much a compliment?"
Seeing that he was not worried about the ownership of the Dajiang Navy, nor was he afraid that all the families would be too big. Instead, he was entangled in the question of whether to be crowned kings. He couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly, shook his head and smiled, "I don't have the surname Chu, but I am the King of Shouzeng in your country."
"That's different," King Zhou whispered: "You are the king himself, so naturally you can't be wronged."
"You can't bear to leave your child and can't trap the wolf," Qin Lei said in a deep voice: "You have been forced to the edge of the cliff by someone. If you don't have to use your trump card, you will die!" The last four words gritted your teeth, scared the King of Zhou to his face, and shivered, "Yes, wait until the throne is obtained before you can talk about anything."
But he didn't know that Qin Lei's idea was to drink poison to quench his thirst. Although he could protect him from overwhelming the King of Qi, it would be a disaster for Chu State...
This trick that contains evil intentions is called "Pangkow". When Qin Lei's mouth moves, a king with a different surname with hundreds of thousands of troops in the hands of the Chu State will appear in a king with a royal family and a royal family in-law. This is absolutely intolerable for the other seven clans... Especially since Zhu Lie is above the top, never takes people seriously, and believes in the bullshit theory of "gentlemen are not group", it will cause him to gradually move away from the seven families and start a new round of internal struggles.
Internal fighting is a good helper to the destruction of the country, and Qin Lei believes it unquestionably.
After getting Qin Lei's "branding trick", King Zhou couldn't stay for a day. Early the next morning, he bid farewell to his sister and husband and hurriedly embarked on the road to return home. Yunluo was very angry that his brother could not attend his wedding, but King Zhou's reply was perfect: "It's already a shameful thing for me to promise Qin Yutian to marry two at a time. If you inappropriately express your anger, you will be looked down upon."
What the King of Zhou didn't know was that the number of brides...uh...
When the team arrived at Jingshan City, the majestic mountain city had become a sea of ​​flowers, with thousands of jasmine, impotence, lilies, gardenia, etc., which was dazzling and set off a grand festive atmosphere.
Guests from all directions surrounded the prince and the two princesses to get out of the car, and loudly sent their blessings. They followed them outside the palace before stopping.
After getting rid of everyone for the time being, Qin Lei took the two of them in, and suddenly Mosquito said, "This, can the bride have two more?"
Yunluo lifted up the veil and saw that there was no one around, so she said with peace of mind: "Sister Shiyun told me that there are two sisters hidden in your house."
"It's a sister, not a sister," Qin Lei corrected her annoyedly: "You are the youngest, so you are the sister."
"I'm just a princess..." Yun Luo pouted: "I think the level should be higher."
"Everything is the same level in my house!" Qin Lei glared at him and said, "Otherwise, I will send you back to Nanchu!"
Yunluo was so scared that she hid in Shiyun's arms, and the kitten whimpered, "Sister, look, he knew to bully me..."
Shi Yun held her shoulders and chuckled at Qin Lei, "Prince, is it interesting to scare children?"
"I'm not young anymore..." Looking at Shi Yun's graceful figure, Yun Luo's voice became lower and lower.
As long as there is a third party, Qin Lei respects Shi Yun as if he is a guest. He smiles embarrassedly and says, "This little girl is so sensible, all you see is an illusion..." Yun Luo gritted her teeth and shook her fist.
"Sister Shiyun..." The cheerful cry interrupted the conversation between the three. Yunluo quickly left Yun Shang's body and followed the sound to see a beautiful woman in green who was walking over with joy. She came with her. There was another woman in blue skirt. Although she was not as good as the green skirt that harmed the country and the people, she was still very beautiful.
Seeing the two of them coming, Qin Lei smiled and said, "I'm in a hurry!" He then urinated and left the difficult problem to the four people.
When Qin Lei walked away, Ruolan covered her mouth and smiled, "Sister Yun Shang is amazing. She scared the prince away as soon as she appeared."
Yun Shang glanced at Yun Luo and smiled Ruhua and said, "Is this the princess of Chu? She is really young?" With the intuition of a woman, she felt that this was the owner of the jade, and she had already scolded the "little liar" a thousand times in her heart.
Yunluo originally planned to pretend to be a good girl first and see the situation before talking about it, but she didn't expect to meet a strong enemy as soon as she came. The so-called brave ones win when they meet on a narrow road, of course, they had to respond without hesitation. She first paid a blessing to Yun Shangfu, and then said softly: "Yes, she is still young, and this old sister wants to give her more money..."
Hearing the little girl mocking her "old", Yun Shang smiled and said, "What is the title of sister? Is it Taiping?"
Yunluo was not annoyed and giggled: "My original title is not important. Sister should not call me a princess in the future..."
"What's that called?"
"Call the princess." Yunluo gracefully raised her swan-like pink neck and said to Yun Shang with her chin.
"You..." Yun Shang was speechless for a moment. After all, she had no gold book and was not as good as others.
Seeing that the two of them were in a quarrel, Shiyun grabbed their hands and said, "Let me introduce you to me, this is Sister Yunluo, Princess Cheng, the conferred by His Majesty; this is Yun Shang, who has been engaged to the prince, so I want to call her sister." As she said that, she put the two of them together and smiled, "I will be my own sisters in the future. Yunluo wants to respect her sister, and Yun Shang wants to take care of her sister, do you know?"
The two had to nod their heads honestly and stop chatting.
Qin Lei selected the team leader for the four-person group in the harem and comforted the two little girls like fighting cocks in just a few words...
Seeing that the two of them were quiet, Shiyun then walked into the room with Ruolan's arm. Yun Shang followed and asked, "Sister, have you known that I'm here for a long time?"
Shi Yun chuckled and said, "How could the prince let such a charming little beauty go?" Yun Shang refused to support her. She was the person who corrected Qin Lei's mistake that night. She was deceived by Qin Lei's letter from Tangzhou. When she arrived in Jingshan City, she realized that she had been fooled. She could only make the mistake and arrange it to go.
The next day, the prince's wedding was held. Guests and friends from all directions congratulated Jingshan City and witnessed the prince's feat of marrying four brides at the same time. Of course, this is not a surprise. After all, it is very common for the prince to marry a concubine at the same time... A wedding is a very painful thing. No one wants to come again, and it is not easy for guests to give another bride gift, right?
But what is amazing is that the four brides were wearing the same outfits this time, and no one could tell which one was the main concubine and which one was the side concubine. This was also intentionally arranged by Qin Lei. Fortunately, he was the biggest in Jingshan City, so he could do whatever he wanted.
The guests were making a fuss and drank until late at night. Of course, the groom could not be with him all the time. He had more important things to do...that was to enter the bridal chamber!
Some people summarized the "Bridal chamber night, when the golden list is titled, the long drought is met with rain, and the old friend meets an old friend in a foreign land" into the four great joys of life, but for Qin Lei, he is a prince of a country, so he naturally has no chance to be admitted to the imperial examination; he has no chance to farm; he is also traveling against the world, so he is unlikely to meet a second fellow villager, so he is not likely to be admitted to the last three joys of happiness.
'Fortunately, I have four wives, so I can have four wedding nights!' In addition to regret, Qin Lei comforted himself: "It can be considered as having all the four joys."
When he actually walked to the backyard, he realized that he was very wrong. Looking at the four embroidery buildings built in sequence on the lake, he not only made a difficult situation, but who should he find so many wives?
After thinking for a while, he finally decided to come in reverse order according to the ranking... He only had four wives in total, and he didn't plan to marry any other woman. Of course, he didn't want to divide them into princesses and concubines, such as that, it would be too sad to have a relationship.
Fortunately, he never lacks creative thinking and named all four daughters as princesses, but Shiyun is the eldest princess, Yun Shang is the second princess, Yun Luo is the third princess, and Ruolan is the fourth princess, so that everyone is decent and order is not chaotic.
Of course, there are also dissatisfactions. For example, Yunluo doesn't want Yun Shang to be ahead of her, and she insists that she is the best choice for the second princess. But Qin Lei's yells at the sound of "sending you back to Shenjing!", and immediately let the little girl accept the fate of the third child...
Ruolan felt that the prince would not be here to spend the night tonight, so she took off her phoenix crown and robe, put on her usual clothes, and prepared to take a shower and go to bed. When she saw the prince appear, she was very surprised at first, and then she whispered: "Prince, you shouldn't come here first."
"You and me are the first one," Qin Lei shook his head, took her into his arms, and whispered: "Let's see what you should do first."
Ruolan obediently leaned in Qin Lei's arms and whispered: "The prince and his elder sister are in love, so I should know how to advance and retreat."
Qin Lei's chin rubbed her silky hair and said softly: "Don't be restrained, you will be a princess in the future, so let's change the name."
"I... obey the order." Ruolan said timidly.
Qin Lei nodded with a smile and said, "I know it is rare to advance and retreat, but I can't be too reserved." As he said that, he pulled up her shoulders and said, "The Lone King originally thought that Shi Yun and Yun Shang were enough, but as a result, Princess Yunluo fell from the sky, and I can't ignore it."
Ruolan reached out and gently covered Qin Lei's lips, and whispered: "Ordinary wealthy families have many wives and concubines, let alone you be the prince? I... I understand."
Qin Lei shook his head firmly and said, "The Lone King is not a greedy person. It is enough to get a table of horse hangings. If there are too many, it will be very annoying... So no matter what happens in the future, I will not accept concubines anymore. Just have you four."
"I support you no matter what the prince is doing." Ruolan murmured: "It's a blessing that I'm already a great man today."
"It's fine as usual," Qin Lei smiled and picked up the cup on the table, drank it against Ruolan, wiped his mouth and said, "We are old husband and wife, we need to take care of the new comrades, I'll come to you tomorrow."
