In the early morning, this backyard was still the home of a certain Mei, but now the hostess was Diao Chan. Gan Mei still lived in her original room, but the maid who served her had been instructed by Diao Chan to stay there day and night.
He kept a close eye on her and couldn't let anything happen to her. Although Diao Chan had never tasted the feeling of being a prisoner, her best friend Yan Rui had experienced it personally, so Diao Chan did not dare to be careless.
Cao Hui is no longer a prisoner of war, but her husband Guan Yu is the figure Liu Xin wants to conquer, and she is pregnant. Diao Chan will naturally take special care of her. Not only is Cao Hui's residence arranged by Diao Chan personally
Yes, even the residence of Du Xiuniang and her son was arranged by Diao Chan herself.
Diao Chan was a little surprised when she first heard that the guards had sent such a mother and son. This Qin Yi's status was not high. Even if his family members were to be used as official slaves, there was no need to send them to this backyard.
And she arranged it herself. However, when she saw Du Xiuniang, Diao Chan became a little wary, especially the jade hairpin on Du Xiuniang's head, which seemed even more shocking to her.
This time Diao Chan was arranged by Ma Yun to follow Liu Xin to the south of the Yangtze River. In addition to taking care of Liu Xin's daily life, she also had a secret mission, which was to find ways to prevent Liu Xin from looking for the two "bridges". As a result, the legendary Jiangdong Second Bridge
He never appeared, but Du Xiuniang appeared halfway.
In the face of beauty, no one knows Liu Xin's determination better than Diao Chan, but she knows better that it is because of Wang Yun. Without Wang Yun's incident, who can guarantee Liu Xin's determination?
Is it still possible to be like this? When we were in Wang Yun’s house, those noble men were ugly
Diao Chan has seen a lot of the various expressions of Gan Mei. What makes Diao Chan especially suspicious is why the pair of hostas appeared on Cao Hui and Du Xiuniang. However, Gan Mei is a bit more beautiful than Cao Hui, and Diao Chan
I asked Liu Xin to take a look at Ganmei first, just to test Liu Xin's attitude.
Although the expression on Diao Chan's face could not be clearly seen, the malicious laughter still made Liu Xin wary, especially when she called Gan Mei "Mrs. Liu", which always made people feel weird. In Liu Xin's heart
He cursed secretly, this damn Liu Bei, he doesn't have a good surname, but he still dares to have the surname Liu. When he is caught, he will be asked to change his surname!
Thinking of this, Liu Xin herself felt that asking someone to change her surname was a bit excessive. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Chan'er, let's let Mrs. Gan rest early. Let's go see what kind of person Mrs. Qin is."
Diao Chan snorted and said, "I knew you were impatient. It turns out that you and Liu Bei have the same character!"
Liu Xin was stunned. She didn't expect Diao Chan to know about this matter. Diao Chan was very careful. Since Liu Xin asked her to arrange the three women, she would try her best to do it well. Cao Hui doesn't have to worry, she is now
She was happy. As for Ganmei, she just had to ask the maids to keep an eye on her, and nothing would happen. But Du Xiuniang's appearance aroused Diao Chan's suspicion, so she called the maids around Du Xiuniang over to ask.
These maids were all sent by Liu Bei. Now that they were prisoners, they were worried to death. When they learned about Diao Chan's identity, they dared not hide the slightest secret. They told everything they knew like pouring beans into a bamboo tube. So Liu Bei and
Diao Chan knew everything about what happened between Du Xiuniang.
Liu Xin caught a glimpse of Gan Mei's body shaking from the corner of her eye. She couldn't help but hatch a plan and said with a deliberate smile: "Chan'er, who do you think I am? Even though Mrs. Qin is as beautiful as a fairy,
Master, how could I be as obsessed with women as Liu Bei, regardless of brotherhood..."
Ganmei's delicate body trembled again, and she didn't listen to a word of what Liu Xin said next. All along, she thought that Liu Bei didn't sleep with her because he was busy with official duties and was not a womanizer. Only now did she know
, it turns out that Liu Bei fell in love with a woman outside, it seems
Mrs. Qin, whom Liu Xin and Diao Chan mentioned, Ganmei shed two lines of tears involuntarily, and her fair and pretty face was completely devoid of any color. As for her heart, which was already cold, she seemed to be stupid.
They didn't even notice when Liu Xin and the others went out.
When Liu Xin and others came in, Du Xiuniang was breastfeeding Qin Lang. When she heard the footsteps, Du Xiuniang just raised her head slightly, glanced at the strange and handsome man, then lowered her head, looking at the child in her arms as if no one else was there, neither
She didn't give way or cover up, leaving her snow-white and plump chest open.
Since being sent here, Du Xiuniang has accepted her fate. She knows very well that since a beautiful woman like her is captured by others, she cannot escape the fate of being someone else's plaything. Any resistance is futile, but she should always be better off.
Liu Bei is so sultry and almost perverted.
However, Liu Xin was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look any further. She quickly coughed twice and said, "Well, I'll wait outside first."
Du Xiuniang raised her head again and looked out the door with a surprised look on her face, but she only saw a tall and straight figure. It was incredible for Du Xiuniang that there was a man in this world who was willing to give up the great opportunity to peek at her beauty. However, Diao Chan was interested in
Liu Xin was very satisfied with her performance and felt that she had not gone with the wrong person. It would have been even better if Liu Xin had not had Du Xiuniang's idea.
When Liu Xin came in again, Du Xiuniang had already straightened her clothes, hugged Qin Lang and gave him a deep blessing. Only then did Liu Xin take a serious look at Du Xiuniang. Sure enough, she had a hibiscus side, willow eyebrows, and a jade-bone fairy.
The appearance is extraordinary and beautiful.
After seeing Du Xiuniang's appearance clearly, Liu Xin's eyes lit up. No wonder even Liu Bei, who always regarded himself as a gentleman, was fascinated by her. In terms of beauty alone, Du Xiuniang was not inferior to Diao Chan, but Liu Xin always felt that
There's something missing about her that doesn't attract her.
Seeing Liu Xin just looking at Du Xiuniang in silence, Diao Chan said angrily: "What's wrong? Master, are you blinded? You men..."
Liu Xin glared at Diao Chan, suddenly realized, and said, "I understand."
Du Xiuniang is beautiful, but she lacks a temperament. She can only be regarded as a high-end vase at best. No wonder that although she looks stunning, she cannot arouse Liu Xin's interest. Did Diao Chan listen to what he said?
Being confused, I couldn't help but wonder: "Master, what do you understand?"
Temperament is a vague thing, and Liu Xin didn't know how to explain it to Diao Chan, so she could only smile and said: "The secret must not be leaked. Chan'er, I have to work hard for you to dress up Mrs. Qin well. I have my own use."
Her place."
Diao Chan reluctantly said "yes". Although she had the secret mission given by Ma Yun, if Liu Xin insisted on taking in this Du Xiuniang, she would not dare to stop her unless she used Ma Yun's trump card.
But this would be tantamount to betraying Ma Yun. In desperation, she could only take one step at a time.
After meeting Gan Mei and Du Xiuniang, Liu Xin returned to the front hall and saw Ju Shou, Xu Chu, Zhang He, Zhang Liao and others there. Guan Yu was also standing there with an angry look on his face.
It turned out that as soon as Guan Yu returned to Xuzhou, he was eager to see Liu Xin, but Jushu stopped him and told him that Liu Xin had something to do at the back house. Jushu knew that Liu Xin had gone to see Du Xiuniang, and he also knew about the confusion between Guan Yu and Du Xiuniang.
Naturally, he would not tell him about the lawsuit. However, Xu Chu had a rough temper. When he mentioned this matter, his eyebrows lit up, and his laughter was full of ambiguity. Guan Yu only said that Liu Xin was like Liu Bei, who had arrived first, and he couldn't help but be angry.
There is smoke in all the orifices, but the attack cannot occur.
How did Liu Xin know that such a bad thing had happened? When she saw Guan Yu, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Yun Chang, you are back."
Guan Yu suppressed his anger, cupped his hands towards Liu Xin, and said: "Master Liu, the final general is incompetent..."
Liu Xin waved her hand and said: "Yunchang, you don't need to say anything. Liu knew that you valued love and justice and would indulge Liu Bei. That's why you were not allowed to issue a military order at that time. Since Liu knew that you would let Liu Bei go,
But I still sent you there. The responsibility for this matter lies with Liu, but you cannot be blamed. However, seeing that you have changed into the brocade robe on your body, Liu is still very happy."
The old robe on Guan Yu's body had long been chopped to pieces by him, but now he was wearing the hundred-flower robe given to him by Liu Xin. Guan Yu did not expect that Liu Xin not only knew that he would not embarrass Liu Bei, but also observed that he would not embarrass Liu Bei.
The change in clothes caused him to be stunned for a moment, and then he raised his hand and said, "Mr. Liu, although Mr. Guan did not complete the task assigned by you, Mr. Guan also brought someone back for you."
Liu Xin did not expect this, and was deeply surprised. She asked in a deep voice: "I wonder who Yunchang brought back?"
Guan Yu raised his sword eyebrows and said: "Don't drive Sun Qian from Xuzhou, he has been captured alive by Guan!"
The Sun family is one of the four major aristocratic families in Xuzhou, and Sun Qian is one of the most famous celebrities in Xuzhou. However, in the eyes of Guan Yu, who is arrogant by nature, these aristocratic families and celebrities are not worth mentioning at all. He captured Sun Qian and brought him back just for himself.
Just get some credit.
Liu Xin nodded and said: "Liu has always made clear rewards and punishments. Yun Chang, you indulged Liu Bei. The fault lies with Liu, not you. But you can be credited with capturing Sun Qian."
As soon as this statement came out, the whole house was in an uproar. They came over after hearing the news, just to see how Liu Xin would deal with Guan Yu's personal manipulation of Liu Bei. Unexpectedly, Liu Xin just lightly took the blame on himself. His love for Guan Yu was evident.
All the generals couldn't help but feel a little angry.
Guan Yu himself felt that Liu Xin's remarks were a bit far-fetched. However, he was a red-faced person. Even if there was any change in his expression, others would not be able to see it easily. But Guan Yu was an upright man, and he did not want to be underestimated by the civil and military people around him.
, took a step forward, cupped his fists and said: "Gong is merit, fault is fault, Guan is willing to bear the mistakes he has made. However, for the contribution Guan has made, please fulfill your promise and be generous with rewards!"
Only then did Xu Chu, Zhang Liao and others be impressed by Guan Yu's righteousness. Their dissatisfied expressions changed and they secretly raised their thumbs.
Liu Xin knew that Guan Yu could only remember that incident, so he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Guan Yu has made great achievements in capturing Sun Qian, and he will be rewarded with a beautiful woman!"
Following this order, a graceful young woman turned behind the screen.
