Chapter 1167 The Clown Is Actually Myself

  When he came out of the palace, Feng Duhu's face was a little gloomy.

  Some people in later generations say that the Shu Han shines with the last remaining ideals and humanity of this era.

  Feng Duhu finally understood what this sentence meant.

  It seems to be praising the Shu Han, but it actually reveals a **** fact:

  In this era, human life is as cheap as grass.

  Cao Wei slaughtered cities by nature, and Sun Wu starved to death. There is no essential difference between the two.

  The ones who can stay committed and never forget their original aspirations are probably Liu Bei and his ministers.

   "Zhongduhu?"

   Seeing Feng Duhu blocking the gate of the palace, he didn't give orders for a long time.

  The head of the bodyguard tentatively called out, waking Feng Duhu out of his contemplation.

   "Oh, it's okay, let's go home."

   "Here."

  There are beautiful wives, beautiful concubines, dogs, and beloved daughters in the house.

  It can heal Feng Duhu's wounded heart.

"grown ups!"

   Seeing the guards in her own mansion escorting the adults back to the mansion, Shuang Shuang who had been waiting in front of the mansion early gave a clear cry.

   The first one to rush out, running towards Feng Duhu who got off his horse.

  Feng Duhu responded with an "ah", bent down and picked up Shuangshuang, and lifted her up.

   Both giggled and danced.

  The younger brothers who followed behind could only silently watch with envy.

   After playing affectionately with his beloved daughter for a while, he put down both of them and looked at the wives, concubines and sons.

   "Ah Lang is back?"

"came back."

   His eyes fell on Mrs. You's big belly.

   "What are you doing out in such a cold day? Be careful of catching the cold."

   "Staying in the house all day long, I feel a little bored, but I feel better when I go out for a walk."

  Madam You is the youngest among all the wives and concubines, and she is pregnant, so her temperament is somewhat changeable.

  She pouted unconsciously, realizing that it was not appropriate in front of her children, and quickly restrained her expression.

   Burning a kang in winter is indeed much more comfortable than before.

   But at the same time, there is a lot more smoke and fire, and it is indeed a bit stuffy after staying for a long time.

   Mrs. Zuo is much more demeanor of a courtly wife, and I saw her whispering to the children:

   "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and call your lord?"

   Achong and the others were shocked, and hurriedly saluted and shouted: "I have seen you, my lord."

  The duck voice in the voice-changing period and the crisp voice of a child rang together.

   "Okay, okay!" Feng Duhu felt relieved, "It's too cold outside, let's go back home."

  The anger during the northern tour and the depression felt in the palace disappeared at this moment.

   Sure enough, the healing of the world is when the wife and children are hot on the kang.

   Leading his wife and children to the mansion, Mrs. Zuo smiled and said:

   "I also said that you can't come back to spend New Year's Day with your children, but I didn't expect to be able to come back before the New Year."

  Feng Duhu sighed: "This is indeed the plan, who knows that the plan is not as fast as the change."

  Although I don't want to talk about these bad things, but as the guardian of the central government, some things cannot be avoided after all.

  Madam You walked slowly with a big belly, supporting her waist, and she was a little impatient when she heard the words:

   "The children are all here, what are you talking about? I can see your face from a distance."

   "It's finally a happy family reunion. What's the matter, can't we talk about it after tonight?"

   "Okay, okay, now you are the most delicate, and you are the biggest."

  Feng Duhu took the initiative to reach out to support Mrs. You, and then put on a smiling face.

   Unavoidable or unavoidable, but delaying for one night is still no problem.

   After all, the thing about Hedong is not bad for this night.

   Moreover, the appointment with the State of Wu to send troops will be in April next year. If there is anything to do, it will not be too late after the New Year.

  It's night, and the masters of Zhongdu Hu's Mansion, Zhendong General's Mansion, Shunde Jun's Mansion, and the three mansions gathered together.

   Even General Zhendong's wife, Guan Hua, also held her child and sat in her seat grandly.

  When there are many people, it becomes lively.

  Children like to be lively the most.

  Especially today when the adults go back home, everyone has dinner together, there are not so many rules.

   Be noisy and you won't be reprimanded.

   So they like it even more.

   Except Ah Chong.

  Achong, who will be twelve years old after the new year, looks at the adult sitting in the main seat, then at the two aunts sitting on both sides of the adult, and Aunt Hua who bows her head and eats fiercely.

   Look at the third brother A Shun and the fourth brother A Mo who are happy.

  At such a young age, he imitated the appearance of an adult and sighed.

  I always feel that my home is not the same as what is said in the book, even it seems to be quite different from other people's homes.

   "Brother, do you want to eat?"

   Ah Shun noticed that brother was looking at him, so he raised a chicken leg and asked in a sensible way.

   "I won't eat it, you can eat it."

   "Third brother, you can eat it yourself. I think brother still has two chicken legs."

  The eldest sister is too skilled, and the second brother is very knowledgeable, so Ah Mo admires them more.

   But among all the brothers he has the best relationship with, it is the third brother.

  Because the third brother is not that powerful, and his age is not too different from him.

  The most important thing is that the third brother is rarely beaten by his mother.

  The three brothers, Amo Abu Anan, are all the same age, almost six years old, and have already begun to enlightenment.

  The children in the government, regardless of whether they are descendants or concubines, receive the same education—meaning that if they fail to learn well, they will all receive the same punishment.

  The third brother who can escape the severe beating every time is the envy of the three younger brothers.

   Ah Chong picked up a chicken leg, put it on Ah Shun's side, motioned Ah Shun to pass it to Ah Mo, and asked at the same time:

   "Third brother, have you thought about what you will do in the future?"

"What?"

  Ah Shun was a little dazed at first, as if he didn't expect that brother would ask this, and then he immediately reacted.

  I saw him say excitedly:

   "Yes, yes, I will definitely be like an adult in the future!"

  Ah Shun's eyes were shining brightly, looking at the adult sitting on the top, his eyes were full of admiration.

Um?

  Brother, you are not doing well, are you?

   Ah Chong looked at Ah Mo again:

   "What about you, fourth brother?"

"me too!"

  A Mo gnawed on the chicken leg while following in the footsteps of the third brother.

   Ah Chong's eyes were a little sad.

   You are all the same, what about me?

  Seeing the children below talking and laughing at Yan Yan, and the wives and concubines next to her smiling like flowers, Feng Duhu couldn't help feeling a sense of satisfaction.

   Even made an exception and drank a few glasses of wine.

  But it's probably because I'm getting old, and I'm a little dizzy after drinking a little wine.

   When I woke up the next day, it was already bright outside.

  In winter, the days are short and the nights are long.

  When the sky is bright, according to the time in summer, the sun is almost three poles at this time.

  Feng Duhu turned over, remembering that he was so tired that he slept like a pig last night, he couldn't help feeling:

  Old, age is really old, dissatisfaction always dies.

  A few years ago, I could have one dragon and two phoenixes, but now just one tiger girl can make me unable to get up.

  As soon as she thought of Tiger Girl, Tiger Girl pushed the door open and entered, followed by a pregnant lady right.

   "Guess that Alang should wake up, do you want to eat something first?"

  General Zhendong did it himself, put a small desk on the kang, and ordered the maid to put the food on it.

   It’s all delivered to your mouth, how can there be any reason not to eat it?

   "What time is it?"

  Old husband and wife, what kind of appearance have you never seen before?

  Feng Duhu didn't bother to stay in the bed to wash up.

  The same goes for washing after eating.

   "It's time, why not sleep a little longer and just eat lunch."

  Madam You climbed up on the couch, took up the warm position under the quilt, and said something gloating.

   There are probably very few women in the world who can compete with Tiger Girl in physical strength, and it is very likely that there are none.

  Madam You's physical fitness is actually very good.

   After all, I practiced some punches and kicks when I was a child.

   Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to run around with Feng Duhu for so many years.

  It's just that compared with Tiger Girl, it's still too far behind.

  Tiger Girl can make Feng Duhu unable to get up the next day, Mrs. You doesn't have this ability herself.

  Before the northern tour, I didn't know what kind of madness this guy was, and he wanted to have a baby with himself all day long.

   They all said that there was no plowed land, but Mrs. You knew that those words could only be said by ignorant people.

  As far as she knew, Pingcheng had already acquired a kind of **** cow from the Hu people two years ago.

   is tall and strong, and can even walk in the ice and snow.

   No matter how deep the plow is, it can still pull it, and it is no problem to plow the land.

  For Mrs. You, Feng Duhu, who only focused on her in the first half of the year, was her **** cow.

  Seeing Feng Duhu's appearance now, she wanted to make a joke of revenge.

  After putting away the food, the maid retreated out, and closed the door sensiblely, leaving only the husband and wife in the room.

  Feng Duhu took a bite of a bun, chewed it a few times and swallowed it. He was still in the mood to glance at Mrs. You, and then his eyes fell on the quilt.

  Although the belly is covered with a quilt, it can still show a raised outline.

   Not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

  Madam You gritted her teeth and kicked him under the quilt:

   "What to look at!"

  Feng Duhu smiled triumphantly.

  General Zhendong couldn’t see it:

   "Don't make trouble, eat quickly, and get down to business after eating."

   "Talking while eating." Feng Duhu swallowed another meat bun.

  Although I ate a lot of dinner yesterday, it is obvious that the consumption at night is more severe.

   "The thing about Hedong was our negligence. The official document was sent directly to Jiuyuan. We didn't take into account that you had already left Jiuyuan for Pingcheng at that time."

  Feng Duhu went on a northern tour, and General Guan was appointed as General Zhendong to serve as the Central Duhufu—at least on the surface, that was the case.

  As soon as General Guan opened his mouth, he voluntarily admitted his negligence.

  Feng Duhu shook his head:

   "This is all in the past, or tell me, what happened to Hedong?"

   "Alang went to the palace to meet the emperor, didn't the emperor's brother-in-law mention it?"

  Miss You, half lying down, interjected.

   It shouldn’t be, such a big matter is based on emotion and reason. As A Lang is the guardian of the central government, the emperor’s brother-in-law should talk to A Lang about this matter.

   "I said it, but I didn't elaborate."

   "Besides," Feng Duhu looked at the two wives, "I couldn't make a judgment at the time, and I didn't know the details, so I didn't ask too much. I still wanted to come back and ask you."

   "Alang is calmer than before." Mrs. You praised, "Actually, a few days ago, we were worried that Alang would conflict with Wei Yan after he arrived in Hedong."

   "Wei Yan is in the Shangdang, and I didn't go to the Shangdang, so there will be some conflicts."

   "I'm worried that you will rashly intervene in Hedong's affairs. I didn't expect that after you left Hedong, there would be no more news from Hedong."

  Madam You said with a smile.

  Feng Duhu glanced at her angrily:

   "Hedong is a strategically important area. Wei Yan, at least as a left hussar, is a high-ranking governor of Hedong. As the guardian of the central government, I will fight with him for power in Hedong? Then Sima Yi in Luoyang may wake up laughing from his dream."

  General Zhendong nodded:

   "Wei Yan is a veteran in the army. He has guarded Hanzhong for so many years without making any mistakes. At least he is a good leader."

   "There are no major problems on the east side of the river. If Alang intervenes rashly, the impact will not be very good."

   "And this time, it is not unreasonable for Wei Yan to want to capture Yecheng from Shangdang."

   "The palace once asked the mansion for their opinions on this. We studied it carefully and thought we could give it a try."

   General Zhendong's words surprised Feng Duhu, and his chewing slowed down:

   "It means that Wei Yan proposed the plan on his own initiative, and the palace also asked the Central Capital Protector's opinion?"

  General Zhendong smiled, the moisturization last night made her complexion extremely radiant, and she had the unique taste of a young woman in Huaxin:

   "Wei Yan wanted to change the defense of Hedong, so the concubine was a little angry at first."

   "But after thinking about it carefully, Henan and Hanoi are both heavily guarded by Wei thieves, and Sima Yi is not a good man to be with."

   "Therefore, no matter whether it is through Zhiguan or Hangu Pass, if you want to enter the Central Plains eastward, you will have to fight hard."

   "Rather than this, it is better to let Wei Yan try Yecheng. Since Cao Shuang and Sima Yi are at odds, then we can take advantage of this opportunity to test Sima Yi's reaction."

   "Even if it is unsuccessful, we can test out Xuchang's support for Yecheng."

   "Huh?" Feng Duhu stopped even chewing this time, and he never thought about it from this aspect.

  He stared blankly at General Zhendong, then thought of something, subconsciously looked at Madam You.

  Madam Zuo couldn't think of such a way of mixing politics with the military.

   With a big belly, Mrs. You was half lying there comfortably, and said lazily:

   "Anyway, Wei Yan took the initiative to stand up this time, and we didn't force him to do it. It was a matter of convenience. If something went wrong, it has nothing to do with us."

   "Besides, Soochow also proposed to join forces with the big Han to attack the Wei bandits next year. Wei Yan is also the left hussar general after all, so it's just right for him to come forward."

  Madam You said with a smile:

   "Alang is now in charge of Chinese and foreign military forces, and he can just sit in Chang'an and plan strategies."

   Feng Duhu swallowed his food, but said nothing.

   Sure enough, it is still necessary to seek the opinions of the two wives on military and political matters.

   "Are you not optimistic about sending troops next year?"

   "Wu Guo is still starving to death, so he is in a hurry to prepare for the next year's expedition. To put it bluntly, isn't he just wanting to gamble?"

  Madam You curled her lips, "Although I don't know anything about the military, I also know that this battle is for food and grass."

   "Wu Guo sent out a large-scale army, how long can their food and grass last? Neither Hefei nor Xiangyang is a city that can be taken lightly."

   "As long as Wei Guo can persist for three or four months, the Wu people may have to retreat obediently due to lack of food."

  Feng Duhu suddenly realized when he heard Madam You's words:

  War is a method to divert domestic conflicts, and it is a very important method.

  Feng Duhu, who claimed to have learned the art of slaying dragons, finally understood why Sun Quan wanted to send troops to attack Wei.

  Ashamed and ashamed, I didn't think of this yesterday.

   "According to this, if Wu Guo really wants to gamble this time, I'm afraid it will be quite powerful. If we big men send too few troops, wouldn't it appear that we are not sincere?"

   "That's why Wei Yan was asked to lead the army! Wei Yan is the left hussar general, and he is above Alang."

  Madam You emphasized Wei Yan's identity again, and her eyes rolled, "It's best to win the fight, and it doesn't matter if you don't win."

   "Anyway, it's a big deal to lend some food to Wu Guo..."

  The big man didn't even think about winning the battle next year!

   In other words, the two wives didn't even think about cooperating with Wu to win next year's battle—of course, Feng Duhu doesn't know what the palace thinks for the time being.

  Feng Duhu stretched out his chopsticks, nodded to the two ladies, and said with a smile:

   "You guys are bad!"

  If Wei Yan is really lucky to win, the big man can continue to expand his results, sweeping Hebei and double-teaming Hanoi and Henan.

  If he loses, how can he fight Feng Duhu?

   As for Wu, let alone.

   won, Wei State perished, Wu State took Jianghuai, and Han took Hebei.

  In the end, the two countries competed for the Central Plains.

   Losing, Wu Guo's vitality will be seriously injured, and he will only rely more on the big man.

  After figuring this out, Feng Duhu smiled even more happily.

   How about marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person?

  Feng Duhu thought for a while and asked again:

   "Does the palace know that you are so bad?"

   "Go, what are you talking about!"

  Madam You kicked Feng Duhu again, "The palace is not stupid, how could it be possible to pin all hopes on Wei Yan?"

   Touched her big belly, Madam You glanced at Feng Duhu again:

   "Regardless of winning or losing, do you think the palace will suffer?"

   Also, as long as he can't let go of Mrs. You and her child, the palace will be considered invincible in advance.

  I thought that the pattern in the palace was a bit small, and he only wanted to check and balance himself.

   I didn't expect that there are still experts in the palace, who can advance and retreat so freely, checking and balancing themselves is the same as cheating Wu Guo to always get it.

  Miscalculation!

  After much deliberation, it turned out that I was the one with the smallest layout.
