Chapter 284 [Three Women Explained, Kong Wu Returns] Part 1
After confirming her marriage to Tokugawa Ie, Su Duxiu also wrote a matchmaking letter and asked Tokugawa Ie to take it back and send it directly to Tokugawa Iemitsu.
The marriage policy with Tokugawa Ie was only known to everyone in the Mu family after Tokugawa Ie left. Of course, it was Mu Linfeng who told him about it. This matter could not be hidden, and there was no need to hide it, so Mu Linfeng chose to tell it himself.
.
The most surprised ones were not Su Duxiu and other retainers, but Chen Yuanyuan, Bian Yujing and Gu Meisheng. But Kou Baimen showed an indifferent attitude. After all, she was still young at the moment, and she was well aware of Mu Linfeng's romantic style, so she was already used to it.
.
Although Chen Yuanyuan and other women knew that Mu Linfeng was engaged to someone he had never met, there must be his reasons, but they still accepted it temporarily. After all, Chen Yuanyuan, Bian Yujing and Gu Meisheng were the three women who had followed Mu Linfeng for the longest time. Even their current
Her identity is not yet the legitimate Mrs. Mu.
Mu Linfeng had no choice but to deal with them one by one. As for women, it is better to rely on coaxing. As long as they are coaxed well, nothing will happen. If they are not coaxed well, sometimes they are more difficult to deal with than the enemies on the battlefield.
Among the three women, Chen Yuanyuan was the most coaxable. Mu Linfeng just showed affection for her and promised that he would never treat her badly or fail her in the future. He also acted rationally and told her about his marriage with Tokugawa Ie.
It is not as simple as it seems on the surface, it also involves issues of national justice.
Mu Linfeng took Chen Yuanyuan's hand, looked into Chen Yuanyuan's eyes and said: "Yuanyuan, Linfeng knows that you know the most important thing. Linfeng and this Tokugawa lady have not seen each other several times, but since they propose a marriage, it is for the sake of Japanese people."
For the long-term peace of our Central Plains people, Linfeng is too proud to reject others thousands of miles away. Of course, Linfeng still refused at first, but this Japanese woman had the best face. She came to mention the matter in person and came with an attitude that she would definitely succeed.
Yes, besides, once this Japanese woman's marriage proposal is rejected, she will never be able to marry again for the rest of her life. How can Linfeng ruin a person's life? Besides, this marriage has been around since ancient times, and it is all for the peace of the two nations. You
We can't let Linfeng bear the charge of being a national sinner..."
The issue of national justice was a very heavy label. Once it was put down, Chen Yuanyuan was definitely not the kind of petty and unreasonable woman. She naturally agreed with Mu Linfeng and said: "Mu Lang, since you have made it so clear.
If Yuanyuan continues to play tricks with you, Mu Lang, then she is not Yuanyuan anymore. Ever since Yuanyuan followed Mu Lang, she has been devoted to you, Mu Lang. Of course, Yuanyuan does not expect Mu Lang to be devoted to Yuanyuan as well. As long as she
If Yuanyuan can occupy a place in your heart, Mu Lang, then Yuanyuan will be satisfied."
When Mu Linfeng heard what Chen Yuanyuan said, he pretended to be extremely moved, held Chen Yuanyuan's jade hand tightly, looked at Chen Yuanyuan affectionately and said: "Linfeng has Yuanyuan, I really have no regrets in this life!"
Bian Yujing was relatively easy to coax. After all, Bian Yujing and Mu Linfeng met in a brothel. Although they wanted to have an affair with Mu Linfeng, they were disturbed by Gu Meisheng. After Bian Yujing came to Yangzhou, Mu Linfeng
She never had time to spend with Bian Yujing, but she was a little cold towards Bian Yujing, so Mu Linfeng always felt a little guilty towards her.
Mu Linfeng went to Bian Yujing's room, hugged Bian Yujing's waist tightly from behind, and said in Bian Yujing's ear: "Saisai, Linfeng knows that this matter is very unfair to you three women, especially you, Saisai, since we
After we parted ways in Jinling and met again in Yangzhou, Linfeng hadn't properly accompanied you to Saisai, and it was all because of Linfeng's bad behavior... But Saisai, you also know that Linfeng and I never need to explain anything to anyone, and
This matter is just a simple abnormal political marriage, not to mention that there is no marriage yet, just an engagement. Linfeng could have just asked Miss Tokugawa for a matchmaker and asked for a marriage letter. It could have been done so seamlessly that no one would know.
But why does Linfeng still want to tell you? That's because of your status in Linfeng's heart. Linfeng thinks he must tell you because Linfeng loves you deeply and doesn't want Saisai to cause a rift between the two of us because of this matter.
What kind of unhappiness can arise from relationships... Saisai, when I say this, can you understand Linfeng's painstaking efforts?"
In fact, Bian Yujing has never complained about Mu Linfeng. From this, it can be seen that Bian Yujing is not an unruly woman, and on the contrary, Bian Yujing is very sensible.
Mu Linfeng didn't waste any words, Bian Yujing had already agreed to Mu Linfeng and said: "Well, Sai Sai understands that as long as Mu Lang you think is right, just do it, Sai Sai will always support you!"
Then Mu Linfeng began to pretend to be moved to tears again, hugging Bian Yujing tightly, and then slowly kissed Bian Yujing's lips. After a long time, he whispered to Bian Yujing: "Saisai, Linfeng is here tonight.
Would you like to sleep here?"
Bian Yujing's face turned red when he heard this, and he quickly pushed Mu Linfeng away without answering, but Mu Linfeng knew that not answering was an answer.
Among the three, the more difficult one is Gu Meisheng. From some previous incidents, it can be seen that Gu Meisheng is more thoughtful and seems to care about his status very much.
Mu Linfeng naturally knew that he had never given them status and that he was sorry for them, so Mu Linfeng could always tolerate Gu Meisheng's ill intentions.
Before Mu Linfeng was planning to propose marriage to Zheng Lianxiang, Gu Meisheng had taken the opportunity to hint that he wanted Mu Linfeng to marry her.
Of course, this is also human nature. Although a woman is the top star in a brothel, it is still a brothel. Even if you are the top star, you have endured a lot of hardships to get through it. Now that she has followed you, she wants a famous name.
The points are also natural.
So Mu Linfeng had no other choice but to rely on his sharp tongue - coax, no matter how difficult it is to coax, this is the fate of a passionate man, who calls you lustful?
Mu Linfeng promised that she would marry Gu Meisheng in the future, and she was determined not to be a concubine, but now she was determined to get engaged to Tokugawa Ie, not because of anything with Tokugawa Ie, but for political purposes, and it was just an engagement, and the real marriage,
I don’t know how long it will take before I can calm Gu Meisheng down.
Gu Meisheng hugged Mu Linfeng's waist tightly, buried his head on Mu Linfeng's chest, and whispered: "Mu Lang, you must mean what you say, Mei'er really wants to be your wife, Mu Lang...
…”
Mu Linfeng patted Gu Meisheng on the back and promised softly: "Well, Linfeng understands, but the situation is not stable yet. As long as Jiangnan is captured, Linfeng will naturally marry Meier and let Meier be Linfeng's real bride. The world
The happiest and most beautiful bride in the world..."
As he spoke, Mu Linfeng gently pushed Gu Meisheng away, looked into Gu Meisheng's eyes, and asked, "Mei'er, do you agree?"
Mu Linfeng said this, which played into Gu Meisheng's mind. How could she say anything wrong? She nodded her head.
After the three women coaxed, it took Mu Linfeng a lot of time. Fortunately, Kou Baimen didn't need to coax at the moment, and she, a little girl, was very interested in the baby that Mu Linfeng was taking care of recently, so she didn't have much time.
Bai Mu Linfeng's white eyes.
After hearing the news, the four retainers of the Mu Mansion did not show any special behavior. They all expressed their understanding of Mu Linfeng.
In fact, before Mu Linfeng came to ancient times, he was very disgusted by the so-called political marriages on TV. But when he actually faced this matter, he was not as disgusted as he imagined.
Of course, Tokugawa Ie is a peerless beauty after all, and even without Tokugawa Ie, Mu Linfeng would have cooperated with Tokugawa Iemitsu. In this way, he would have earned an extra beauty to give to his wife. Why not?
Woolen cloth?
After these trivial matters were resolved, Mu Linfeng began to concentrate on preparing for the shipyard and going south.
But since we agreed to give the Tokugawa family 50,000 muskets and 500 artillery pieces, we had to inform Wu Xing in advance and let him prepare in advance.
Thinking of Wu Xing, Mu Linfeng realized that he had not seen Wu Xing since he was assassinated, so he sent someone to the iron factory to invite Wu Xing back to Mu Mansion to discuss matters in Japan.
In the past few days since the Ming Dynasty, Mu Linfeng seemed to have developed a habit of telling Wu Xing about all important matters, even if he did not let the four retainers and the woman behind him know.
Perhaps the main reason is that Mu Linfeng and Wu Xing are both from the 21st century after all.
When Wu Xing returned to Mu Mansion, he immediately went to the study to find Mu Linfeng. As soon as Mu Linfeng saw Wu Xing, he immediately stepped forward and patted Wu Xing on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, what have you been busy with at the iron factory recently?
I haven’t seen you for almost half a month, and you didn’t come back to the city during the Lantern Festival. It’s really hard on you!”
Wu Xing said quickly: "Brother Feng, please forgive me. In fact, Wu also heard about Brother Feng's assassination at the iron factory, but he never got around to it..."
