The night is getting darker and the sky is filled with stars.

The inner courtyard of the county magistrate’s mansion and the back garden.

Under the moonlight, the lotus pond is particularly charming.

In the water pavilion beside the lotus pond, Dian Wuxia and Ma Yunluo were wearing thin clothes and enjoying the cool air in the pavilion.

It was a midsummer night and it didn't rain for half a month.

The room is stuffy and the evening breeze blows by the lotus pond, so it makes people feel very comfortable to enjoy the coolness here.

"This outfit is so beautiful and it's very comfortable to wear on it. Thank you Sister Wuxia!"

In the pavilion, Ma Yunluo was wearing a pink robe dress, which was exactly the same style and fabric as Dian Wuxia's clothes, but the color was different. The slender robe dress on Dian Wuxia's body was black, which made her smooth skin that looked like snow. The very integrated robe dress showed her huge peaks and her enviable figure to the fullest, making her look particularly beautiful and charming, and her every move showed the sexy temptation of a mature young woman.

Seeing that Ma Yunluo liked the "pajamas" she gave her very much, Dian Wuxia smiled happily and said, "Just Sister Yunluo likes it, just a pajamas, why do you thank me?"

"Pajamas? What is pajamas? Is it the silk robe we wear?" Ma Yunluo asked curiously.

Dian Wuxia was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she laughed and explained: "My sister doesn't know that this double-layer lace lace was designed by my husband. In our eyes, it is a very gorgeous and comfortable lace, but my husband calls it a 'pajama'. That is, clothes that can be worn for rest, so it is called 'pajama'. In fact, it is indeed the case. This pajama made of silk such as Xichuan is smooth and soft, without any weight on the body, which is very good for the skin and is very comfortable. If my sister likes it, then my sister will give you a few pieces of four-color fabrics. You can sew a few pajamas according to your figure and preferences according to your body. If you like the patterns and exquisite lace, you can also embroider it yourself."

"Uh? This,,,,,,,," Ma Yunluo was very happy at first and smiled. After Dian Wuxia finished speaking, her pretty face turned red and she seemed a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong with sister? Did I say the wrong thing, sister?" Dian Wuxia asked softly in surprise.

Ma Yunluo lowered her head and whispered embarrassedly: "My little sister's biological mother passed away early. She learned martial arts with her brother Ma Chao since she was a child, and she was as naughty as a man. Therefore,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"Hahaha! So that's it!" Dian Wuxia smiled and said, "Sister, don't blame yourself. To be honest, sister, I'm like you, riding horses, shooting archery, dancing swords and guns since I was a child. The female craftsmanship is extremely poor, and it's really hard to get into the elegant hall. Last year, when my husband and I first met, I was in danger in the desert and couldn't get out of it. At that time, my husband and I were torn clothes, and we could hardly see anyone. After getting out of the trap, I began to fumble and sew clothes by myself, but the clothes were ugly. But my husband didn't dislike it. Instead, he taught me to make some simple little clothes. Since then, I have made all the little clothes on my husband.

Today, when I heard my sister say this, my sister felt that we were very close to each other and had similar backgrounds. This is the fate given to us by God. My sister, I wear all the clothes I wear now are sewn by your second sister Zou Jing. She is now the female housekeeper of our inner mansion. She is skillful and skillful in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she is not good at martial arts and does not know how to ride and shoot. My husband is cheerful by nature and does not care about the affairs of his daughter's family at all. Moreover, there are many maids in our mansion. They can sew clothes, so my sister doesn't have to worry about it. You don't have to do it yourself."

"Oh. That's good!" Ma Yunluo said with relief. But as soon as she said it, she suddenly felt that she had lost her composure, and saw Dian Wuxia's cramped smile. Suddenly, Ma Yunluo said shyly, "Little sister has lost her words, sister, you make fun of her!"

"Hehehe!" Dian Wuxia smiled happily and said, "Sister Yunluo has finally said what he said in his heart! Sister doesn't have to be shy. It's not something you like. If you like, just like it, why hide it? In fact, I have long seen that my sister likes her husband. I will not object to this matter, but will support you strongly. After all, we are sisters. When you truly become your husband's wife and concubine, will we sisters be together day and night and never be separated?

However, in this matter, sister, you must take the initiative and let your husband know your intentions. After all, your husband is now busy with military and political affairs, and is busy all day long, and has no time to care about the relationship between men and women. If you don’t take the initiative, even if your husband is interested in you, you don’t know whether you are willing or not. If you delay like this, it will be difficult for you to get together over time. Sister, think about it, is this true?"

After thinking a little, Ma Yunluo nodded to Dian Wuxia with great gratitude and said in a respectful voice: "Thank you, sister, for your fulfillment! I have a question in my heart, don't you know whether to speak or not?"

Dian Wuxia smiled and said, "We are already sisters, it's okay for my sister to speak out loud, don't hesitate!"

Ma Yunluo looked a little slow when she heard this, her eyes stared at the expression on Dian Wuxia's face, and asked softly: "My little sister heard that her husband, uh, I heard that General Xianxi had six wives, including his sister, and he married another concubine two months ago. In this way, General Xianxi had seven wives and concubines. But why did the sister not stop her from approaching General Li, but instead intended to cause this matter? Sister, don't you mind this matter at all, and aren't you worried that General Li will marry more concubines in the future?"

After hearing Ma Yunluo's words, Dian Wuxia was slightly stunned. Then she stared at Ma Yunluo with her eyes and asked in a harmonious voice: "Since it is my sister who is inquiring about me, my sister will naturally tell the truth. But I really want to know, if my sister is in her position, would you mind taking a concubine? I hope my sister must tell the truth and don't hide it."

"This,,,,,,,,," Ma Yunluo was shocked, and he was speechless, not knowing how to answer. Then she thought and said, "If I were my sister and General Li really wanted to take a concubine, even if the younger sister felt a little uncomfortable, she would not stop it. After all, no one in the Han Dynasty was a group of princes, nobles, civil and military officials, and there were dozens of maids and dancers in any mansion. In addition to famous wives and concubines, many maids and dancers were going to bed, and they would come and go when summoned."

Dian Wuxia smiled slightly when she heard this, nodded and said, "What my sister said is very much. You and I are both from Liangzhou, and we are from the family of princes and vassals. What we see and hear is very similar. In the past, my sister, I was in the Xiutu Royal Court, and the tribal leaders often sent troops to plunder the Han territory. In addition to gold, silver, and grain and cloth, they would steal many Han women every time, and they were all young women. After the war, many generals compared each other, and they did not compare to whoever had more gold, silver, and soft, nor did they compare to them.

The food and cloth are only compared to whoever grabs more women. The women who robbed them are beautiful. The tribal nobles often gather together to compare their wives and concubines and maids, compare the number and beauty of each other. In the end, who wins, they can choose the women they like from the other party’s wives and concubines and maids and take them away and take them for themselves. Therefore, there are at least hundreds of wives and concubines of the tribe leaders. The same is true for the generals, and even more. The Xiutu tribe is the same, and the same is true for other Qiang tribes.

Compared with the Qiang tribe, the civil and military officials in the Han Dynasty were not inferior at all. However, they were very good at disguising themselves and were very secretive in their work. There were not many wives and concubines on the surface, and only a dozen or dozens of wives and concubines were added together. However, their mansions had extremely large number of maids and dancers, and these carefully selected women were also young women who were for them to enjoy at any time. Previously, my husband rectified the rules and regulations of Chang'an and investigated the civil and military officials' mansions.

The maids, entourages and servants in the house guarded the house. It was found that there were at least hundreds of maids and dancers in each official's residence, and the wives and concubines were not listed here. The number of maids and dancers in the residences of some three ministers and nine ministers was even as many as thousands, and they were all young and beautiful young women. After a month of strict investigation and handling, it was found that more than 100,000 young women were found in Chang'an City and the surrounding counties, so that most soldiers in the army could get married and marry beautiful wives and relatives.

Compared with these Han officials who are different from each other, my husband became famous at a young age, held powerful soldiers and held the power of the world. But he has only only seven wives and concubines. Moreover, the most valuable thing about his husband is that he never secretly communicates with the maids in the mansion, nor has he ever let the young and beautiful personal maids sleep. As long as he is in the mansion, he will go back to the inner palace to rest every night and talk to us sisters, worried that he will neglect us.

So Xin'er and I have agreed to never stop our husband from taking concubines. If we meet a woman our husband likes, we will not try to stop him, but instead strive to make good things. Because only in this way can our husband not fall in love with others, and will not provoke other women casually. Sister Yunluo must not think too much. It is not that my husband says this for no reason, but that my husband is now in a high position and has a lot of scheming women, hoping to use this to enter the inner palace and enjoy wealth. But Sister Yunluo is different. You are not interested in your husband's power, but you really like your husband. In addition, my sister can also reveal something to you, your husband has long been in love with you! Therefore, as long as my sister takes the initiative, I believe that your good things will not last long, and you will soon be together and become a member of our family in the Li family."

"Sister!" Ma Yunluo said shyly, blushing and dared not look at Dian Wuxia's smiling face.

While shyness was hard to bear, Dian Wuxia's words shocked Ma Yunluo and felt a lot of feelings. These words made her deeply understand the broad minds of Dian Wuxia, Li Xin and other original wives, and also felt their wisdom and tolerance, which further strengthened her determination to follow Li Li. Because she felt that being sisters with Dian Wuxia and others was a very lucky thing. The sisters tolerate and understand each other, without intrigue, nor have they had to compete for favor and flattery in front of Li Li.

In addition, Dian Wuxia just said something that Ma Yunluo felt. That is, the reason why she likes Li Li was definitely not envious of Li Li's power and status, but was truly impressed by Li Li's powerful and powerful posture. In addition, Li Li was able to subdue her rebellious elder brother Ma Chao. This alone was enough to make her admire Li Li and fall in love with her secretly.

Girlish feelings are always poetry. Ma Yunluo grew up with Ma Chao since she was a child, and the ideal man in her mind was based on Ma Chao as the template. Li Li was able to subdue Ma Chao, which undoubtedly indicates that a man who matched Ma Yunluo's wishes appeared.

"Ding Ding Dong Dong---"

Just as Ma Yunluo and Dian Wuxia were sitting in the pavilion and whispering, the sound of a brisk and melodious piano came from outside the wall of the back garden.

"Uh, who is playing the piano next door? When it's late at night, he doesn't go to rest, but instead plays the piano late at night, and his brain is sick!" At first hearing the sound of the piano outside the wall, Ma Yunluo immediately bent his eyebrows and frowned slightly, stood up, looked at the direction of the piano sound, and said in a deep voice in an unhappy tone.

Dian Wuxia listened to the sound of the piano and slowly stood up. She pressed Ma Yunluo's shoulder lightly and whispered: "Sister, don't be angry. The person who plays the piano should be a woman, not a disturbing quiet Meng Lang. The tune is light and soothing, and the sound of the piano is crisp and melodious. Obviously, this woman playing the piano is very skilled and proficient in the rhythm. Moreover, she was in a good mood when playing the piano, as if there were happy events, and there was an indescribable joy in the piano sound."

"Sister also knows the rhythm?" Ma Yunluo turned his head and looked at Dian Wuxia, and asked casually in surprise.

Dian Wuxia smiled and said, "Although I don't know how to needle and thread female workers, I have a problem with piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Can Yunluo know who the next house is under the name of the mansion?"

"Uh? If my sister doesn't ask, I almost forgot about this. When my sister moved into the backyard, I asked General Li Xian. Within a radius of five miles, all the houses belong to the county magistrate's office and are recorded in General Li's name." Ma Yunluo said in response.

Dian Wuxia was slightly stunned when she heard this and pondered: "Oh, the house next door is also a property under the name of his husband. Since it is the mansion under the name of his husband, the people living there should know that his husband has lived in the backyard in the near future. How dare she play the piano late at night to disturb her husband's rest?"

Following Dian Wuxia's thoughts, Ma Yun said in surprise: "Sister just said that the person playing the piano next door was a woman. Could it be that she is familiar with General Li?"

When Dian Wuxia heard this, his expression changed and he murmured in surprise: "Oh, could you be sleeping in the next house the night before yesterday?"

As soon as he thought of this, Dian Wuxia immediately pulled Ma Yunluo and left: "Yunluo, come with me to see what the person playing the piano looks like? He actually seduced my husband by playing the piano late at night?"

Ma Yunluo was shocked when she heard this. She looked down at the almost transparent Nichang on her body and said hesitantly: "Sister, let's go back and change some clothes. I'm afraid something is wrong if I just go there like this?"

"It's okay, I'm still wearing it inside,,,,,,,." Just as Dian Wuxia was about to say that she was still wearing a bra inside, she suddenly noticed that Ma Yunluo was walking around, a pair of tall and huge jade rabbits on her chest were jumping up and down, and two red beans on the jade rabbit could be vaguely seen.

——————————————

"It's broken. Ying'er was discovered by Wuxia and the others!" Just as Dian Wuxia and Ma Yunluo were struggling to go back to the room to change clothes, Li Li had been standing here for a while in the waterside corridor twenty steps away, listening quietly to their private words. Until the sound of the piano came from the next door, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and then he saw Dian Wuxia pulling Ma Yunluo up to climb over the wall and enter the courtyard where He Ying lives.

"Cough, cough!"

He coughed twice in discomfort, and Li Li walked out of the darkness of the corridor and strode behind Dian Wuxia and Ma Yunluo.

"Where are you going?"

Li Li said first and pretended to walk to Dian Wuxia casually, and said with a smile: "The dew is heavy late at night, and you two are wearing so thin clothes, so you are not afraid of getting wet and hurting your body."

While speaking, Li Li handed the brocade robe on his arm to Ma Yunluo, who was blushing, and took off his Confucian shirt and put it on Dian Wuxia.

"I thanked you for your husband. The lobby meeting has ended long ago. How could you come back so late?"

Dian Wuxia reached out to put Li Li's Confucian shirt on her shoulders, turned her head to look at his eyes, and suddenly felt that the smile on his face was fake, and he did not dare to look at him, and his eyes seemed dodging and vague. She immediately confirmed that her previous guess was correct. The woman playing the piano in the next house was the one who stayed with her husband Li Li the night before yesterday, so she asked resentfully.

However, Dian Wuxia also knew that the reason why his husband's eyes were dodging was that he was ready to confess to him and intended to let him see his apology. Otherwise, with Li Li's cunning now, if he deliberately concealed it, others would not see any flaws in his face.

Hearing that Dian Wuxia's tone was not good, Li Li said with a smile: "Just just now, he talked with Wenhe and Fa Zheng in the study. He had a happy chat and forgot the time. He came back a little late, so he had to wait for a long time. Hahaha!"

When Dian Wuxia heard this, her pretty face turned slightly red and she said shyly: "Who is waiting for you? I thought you were summoned by the sound of the piano next door? Tell me, who is the girl next door, and how long have you lived here?"

Seeing that Dian Wuxia's face was blushing and shy, Li Li knew that she was a little moved and had forgiven herself. He was in a good mood and said with a smile: "To put it in detail, the woman in the house next door is not an outsider. She is Hongchang's distant cousin, named He Ying, who is about the same age as Hongchang, and is only three months older. Three months ago, Hongchang received a letter from He Ying, and asked me to take her cousin to Chang'an to live. However, the turmoil in Chang'an was not settled at that time, and I was afraid.

The road was not safe, so I sent someone He Ying to Guzang City for temporary resettlement. Two days ago, my second brother's affairs made me quite troubled, so I went to He Ying to calm down, and you also know what happened next. I didn't want to hide this from you. I went to Jincheng these two days and had to dispatch a large army, so I couldn't find any time to explain this to you. Don't blame me, please compensate my husband well and make you satisfied! Hahaha---"

"Hmph! Your mouth is the best at coaxing people!" When Dian Wuxia heard Li Li's last words, she turned her head in shame and refused to look at Li Li's meaningful handsome face. She lowered her head and snorted lightly, for fear that Ma Yunluo, who was standing next to her, would see the shy and blushing expression on her face.
