Chapter 661 [Marrying twelve wives, the blessing of Qi people] four
After Mu Linfeng left the harem, the first thing he did was to find Kong Wu and prepare to let Kong Wu take him to Zhou Shixian's residence. Unexpectedly, Kong Wu told Mu Linfeng a piece of news, saying that Zhou Shixian's abnormal behavior had recently been discovered.
Mu Linfeng couldn't help but curiously asked Kong Wu what was going on. Kong Wu told Mu Linfeng that Zhou Shixian had frequently been in and out of gambling houses a while ago and owed debts to many people, but he could pay them back soon, so there was no
No matter how you pay attention, since around the time Mu Linfeng went to Japan, Zhou Shixian was no longer able to pay back the money. Occasionally, Zhu Yuluo's maid would pay him back with a little silver.
When Mu Linfeng heard this, he thought to himself, it seems that Zhou Shixian is a gambler with a gambling addiction, and every time he runs out of money, Zhu Yulao helps solve the problem, but how could Zhu Yulao like a gambler?
I heard that Kong Wu said that he was also so suspicious, so he secretly sent people to investigate and found out a secret. In fact, after the Manchu troops invaded the Forbidden City, Zhou Shixian escaped. He was worried that his identity as the quasi-consort would be persecuted by the Manchus, so he tried every means to do so.
He wanted to draw a clear line with Zhu Yurao, but when he went into exile in Nanjing, he discovered that not only was Zhu Yurao not dead, but she had become a princess again.
Zhou Shixian spent all his family property at this time, trying to get in touch with Zhu Yurao who lived in the palace, and wanted to fulfill the engagement with Zhu Yurao as soon as possible. However, the guards were greedy for money, but they still failed to help him shoulder Zhu Yurao's side. Later, Zhou Shixian wanted to have Zhu Yurao.
Then he used money to bribe the guards of the palace, and accidentally learned to gamble, but most of them lost, and even the little money he had to save his life was lost.
It was at this time that Zhou Shixian met Zhu Yurao's maid Xiaocui in the market, and then he got in touch with Zhu Yurao. Zhou Shixian naturally concealed from Zhu Yurao the events about him escaping from Beijing and preparing to cancel the engagement, and made up a series of stories.
Zhu Yuluo was moved by Zhou Shixian's touching story of his long journey to find his fiancée.
When Mu Linfeng heard this, he was already extremely angry. He wished he could capture Zhou Shixian and cut him into pieces in order to relieve his hatred. However, when he thought about how Zhu Yurao had treated her before, he felt that the only way to do this was to let her see through Zhou Shixian.
, in order to make her believe it, otherwise Zhu Yuluo would only think that she was avenging her private revenge.
Mu Linfeng quickly asked Kong Wu if the investigation was absolutely true. Kong Wu quickly told Mu Linfeng that it turned out that Zhou Fu, the housekeeper of Zhou Shixian's family, was the witness. It was he who escaped from Beijing with Zhou Shixian at that time.
He and Zhou Fu discussed together how to break away from Zhu Yurao, and later they separated in Shandong, and Zhou Fu was already in the hands of Kong Wu.
Mu Linfeng sneered when he heard this, and immediately asked General Kong Wu to take care of Zhou Fu first. He would wait until he had a detailed plan to see how to deal with Zhou Shixian before making any plans.
As soon as Mu Linfeng returned to the palace, he received a letter from Wu Sangui from Japan. The letter mentioned that all the Western warships had withdrawn from the Japanese waters, and Wu Sangui and Zhang Huangyan had also started heading north from Meinong City and Echizen City respectively.
During this period, the Japanese soldiers in his own army had a riot, which was suppressed by Wu Sangui. Originally, Wu Sangui meant to shoot all these soldiers, but he was afraid of causing an outcry among the residents of the Japanese city he had just captured.
Due to the great turmoil and Tokugawa Ietaka's plea, this was no longer the case.
After Mu Linfeng read the letter, he couldn't help but sigh to himself that Wu Sangui was really a massacrer, and his methods were much more vicious than he thought. But the advantage was that he could judge the situation and know when to do what.
Mu Linfeng immediately asked someone to write a letter to Wu Sangui. The letter strongly praised the rapid progress of Wu Sangui and Zhang Huangyan's war in Japan. He also pointed out that Wu Sangui's attitude towards the riots was correct. To win a place, what is needed is the support of the people.
If we gain the whole of Japan but destroy this race, we will be the sinners of history.

,! The letter also mentioned that Mu Linfeng was full of confidence in Wu Sangui and Zhang Huangyan's capture of northern Japan, and hoped that they would treat the people of Japan as the same people as the city and the Central Plains, because Japan will become a province of the Central Plains, and Japan will become a province in the future.
The people are the people of the Central Plains.
After the letter was sent, Mu Linfeng had just left the study when he saw his twelve wives entering the back hall from the front hall. Then he smiled slightly, stepped forward quickly, stood in front of the women, and said with a smile: "Madams,
, are back?”
After Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he reached out to hug them. When the women saw this, they all smiled and ran away. Only Tagawa Meiko, Kou Baimen, and Zhong Nanping were still standing there. Mu Linfeng immediately stepped forward and hugged the three of them, smiling: "
It’s still Meiko, Nanping and Meier feel sorry for me!”
Zhong Nanping's face turned red when he heard this, and he quickly ran away. He smiled and said: "Husband, Nanping should go and accompany my sister to prepare dinner for tonight!" After saying that, he quickly caught up with the women in front of him and walked away with a smile.
.
Mu Linfeng was holding Tagawa Meiko with one arm and Kou Baimen with the other. Then he smiled at the two of them and said, "Aren't you going to prepare dinner too?"
Tagawa Meiko snorted coldly and said, "Aren't you afraid of dying with so many women cooking dinner for you?" She then kicked Mu Linfeng and walked away.
Mu Linfeng actually didn't feel any pain, and felt warm in his heart. He knew that Tagawa Meiko seemed to have given up on Japan, but he still pretended to be in pain, touched his feet, and said to Kou Baimen: "Mei'er, you
My husband has been bullied, why don’t you help me rub him down? This isn’t fair!”
Kou Baimen rolled his eyes at Mu Linfeng and stepped on Mu Linfeng's other foot. Then he said, "This is fair!" He walked into the inner hall.
Mu Linfeng felt pain in her feet, but felt warm in her heart. She quickly ran two steps, chased after him, and hugged Kou Baimen from behind. Kou Baimen struggled twice, trying to get away.
Mu Linfeng hugged her tightly and refused to let go, then whispered: "Meier, you are more mature and beautiful now!"
Kou Baimen's face turned red when he heard this. He was shy and moved. He immediately rolled his eyes at Mu Linfeng, and then wanted to step on Mu Linfeng's feet. Mu Linfeng immediately stepped away and said with a smile: "Fortunately, your husband, I still have a hand!"
"
As soon as Mu Linfeng finished speaking, he saw Kou Baimen walking in front of him. He felt his feet rest for a moment. It turned out that Kou Baimen was walking on his own feet.
When Mu Linfeng saw this, he immediately chased after her and picked up Kou Baimen from behind. Kou Baimen was already petite, so it was easy for Mu Linfeng to pick her up. He then put her on his shoulders and hit Kou Baimen at the same time.
Men's buttocks, while laughing: "See how I accept your husband!"
At this time, the maids happened to be passing by, and they all laughed after seeing this. Kou Baimen's face turned red, and he beat Mu Linfeng on the back quickly and shouted: "Put me down, the servants will see it!"
Mu Linfeng laughed and said: "You call me husband and beg for mercy, and I will let you down!"
When Kou Baimen saw that the maids were still watching from a distance and snickering, he quickly whispered: "Husband, Mei'er is wrong, please let me down!"
Mu Linfeng pretended not to hear it at this time and said quickly: "Ah? What did you say? Louder, I can't hear you!"
