【Chapter 990】 Heart flying, sailors set sail
Under the osmanthus tree, there is a round stone table, four round stools, and a pot of tea. The two brothers sit opposite each other.[][].[23][wx].[].[]
Above the head, the fragrance of osmanthus is strong, attracting bees and butterflies, which is very lively.
The strong fragrance fills the entire courtyard, without the wind, the fragrance will not overflow, and the wind brings the fragrance for ten miles, which is really comfortable.
Just after the heat, autumn is coming, and the north wind blows, refreshing, and the heart is clear and everything in the world is in your palm.
He poured two cups of fragrant tea on his hands, and Li Li's face was filled with a smile like spring breeze, "I have neglected my brother these days, and I've apologized for my brother with tea instead of wine, how about?" Zhuge Liang was left for three days and four nights. Even if Kong Ming did not complain, Li Li himself felt sorry. Finally, he took a break from his busy schedule this afternoon and apologized specifically.
"Brother said it's so serious." Zhuge Liang picked up the teacup and bowed to thank him, took a sip of the tea, and smiled and said, "Brother and sister-in-law are rarely seen, and it's not easy to get together. After a long time of separation, there are naturally a lot to say. This is human nature, and I can understand it." As he spoke, Zhuge Liang looked calm, without too much taboo to cover up, and his words were earnest and straightforward, so that Li Li, who had always been silent, couldn't help but feel hot and his cheeks turned slightly red.
His family knows his family affairs. What Zhuge Liang said is too polite and too particular, with a little intuition mixed in implicitness. The so-called "A long time of separation and reunion naturally has a lot to say." The speaker is unintentional and listens intentionally, but it feels different in Li Li's ears.
Speaking of which, Li Li has been a family for six years and has more than ten beautiful wives and concubines under his name. There are so many beautiful girls in the general's mansion. There are countless beautiful girls who come and go when they are summoned. Therefore, he has already passed the period of indulging in beauty. No matter what kind of woman he is, he can be so calm and even disdainful.
When he was young, he once indulged in a gentle country. He also achieved a brilliant record of letting all eight wives and concubines get pregnant within half a year. He almost worked day by day, sang every night, and had the pleasure of lingering. However, as the women were pregnant one after another, the Xiliang army grew day by day, and the territory under his rule expanded rapidly. Unconsciously, he transferred his vigorous energy to military affairs and no longer became addicted to the enjoyment of beauty. His mind became more mature and steady, and he became more rational and wise.
After spending his initial passion, Li Li rarely lingers in the beautiful flowers. He is not as romantic as before, he restrains his lustful nature and no longer provokes women, even beautiful beauties are no exception. Although there are hundreds of pure and lovely maids in the general's mansion, Li Li never had any affair with maids or sleeps with maids. He never provokes women other than wives and concubines.
The only exception is that he was drunk and arbitrary, seduced by Princess Yang'an, Liu Hua, and then he became secretly flirting with Princess Yang'an as if he was infected with poison, making her the only mistress besides his wives and concubines. As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a steal. This is how Li Li's peace with Princess Yang'an. But now this matter has been properly resolved, and Liu Hua has entered the Li family. He officially became Li Li's concubine and no longer bears the name of a mistress.
To this day, the most special existence among women Li Li has is Meng Xin. In order to keep her by her side, Li Li once wanted to make an exception to marry her as a fair wife, and promised to keep her by her side forever, even if she was leading troops to fight, it is no exception. It is not difficult to see how obsessed Li Li is with Meng Xin, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a beauty. Unfortunately, even though Li Li tried every effort and made concessions over and over again, Meng Xin still refused to give up her original intention, insisted on living in seclusion and practicing, and established a sect, and was unwilling to hide under Li Li's wings to be a pleasing "vase".
Not only that, Meng Xin is very independent, similar to an independent woman in later generations. After following Li Li, she did not want any status, did not seek wealth, did not seek any wealth, and did not want any help from Li Li. In this way, if you have no need for fame and fortune, perhaps in her heart, Li Li's status and status are not important. What matters is that he is his own man, that's all. The reason why she doesn't want any status is that she has long regarded herself as Li Li's wife, not seeking to monopolize Li Li's whole life, but only wanted to be her only person in the days when she and Li Li were together. There was no so-called wife and concubine, only two of them, men and women, a couple who were in love and were in love, was that simple.
It is precisely because of Meng Xin's unique personality and the peerless face of inverting all living beings that Li Li loves her deeply, thoroughly, and cannot extricate herself. For this reason, he tried to keep Meng Xin by his side and see her at all times. Unfortunately, this is just his wishful thinking and ultimately unattainable. It is precisely the separation of the two places that makes Li Li's feelings for Meng Xin more and more difficult to let go, worrying about and thinking about it day and night. So Li Li cherishes the opportunity to meet each year and looks forward to this day as soon as possible.
This time, he rushed back to Liangzhou from Youzhou on a starry night. Li Li did not stop for a moment. He passed by Sanfu but did not go to Chang'an to visit his wife and children. Instead, he took Zhuge Liang and more than 100 people and came directly to Qingsong Villa. Even so, he was still many days late. According to the agreement, he should have arrived before August 15, but it was late August and September when he arrived. Fortunately, Meng Xin was still waiting for him, but did not leave, and was not angry at all. Instead, she became more gentle and considerate, extremely enthusiastic, and kind to others (comprehensive).
So everything happened naturally. One was passionate and considerate, tender and tender, and the other was blood on the battlefield, violent and fierce, with such deep affection and deep feelings, a pair of infatuated men and women collided together, like ice and fire, and it was out of control, and its intensity was indescribable. **, like wolves and tigers, were not enough to summarize its intense scene.
For three days and four nights, Li Li and Meng Xin were always together, wandering in the sea of joy, lingering to the end of the world, and composing a lingering and sad melody that only the two of them knew.
Meng Xin hasn't seen Li Li for two years. In addition, she raised her son alone. Seeing her son growing day by day, she naturally thinks of Li Li. She suffers from longing for love, and over time she has accumulated an incalculable passion. While taking care of her hungry son and teaching her disciples, she may also suppress the deep lovesickness in her heart. However, the moment she really saw Li Li, her passion like a volcano eruption could no longer be restrained, and she soared into the sky and lasted for a long time.
Coincidentally, since leading the army to the east, Li Li has not been close to women for a year, and has devoted himself to leading troops to fight without distraction. During this period, after many temperings of blood and fire, he has become murderous, fierce and violent. In addition, although he has devoted all his energy to killing during the long-term battle on the battlefield, his physical instinct needs are constantly accumulated. What's more, he is a person with extremely energetic and extremely strong energy.
So Meng Xin's plump and charming body met Li Lilong's fierce masculine body, and a long-lasting fierce fight broke out suddenly, fighting the sky and the earth, the sun and the moon were gone. They went to Wushan again and again. Li Li injected all the hot streams that had accumulated for a year into Meng Xin's flower stamens. The torrent that Meng Xin had accumulated for two years completely submerged Li Li, and he confiscated his weapons and all his arms, which was very refreshing and refreshing. The taste was not worthy of being told by outsiders.
If nothing unexpected happens, Meng Xin may have to break the appointment next year and will give birth to children for Li Li again. (There is no family planning control, it is so simple to spread branches and leaves). Li Li has already prepared for this, and when he is in love, he has convinced Meng Xin to set the location of the tryst next year in Xichuan, where Li Li will go to Mount Emei to visit her and the child she has never met.
Just when Li Li was stunned and lost his mind, a pot of tea on the stone table was already bottoming out. Seeing Li Li thinking, Zhuge Liang did not disturb him, and slowly savored the tea himself, waiting for Li Li to wake up from his thoughts and come back to his senses.
Subconsciously he picked up the teacup and drank it all. Li Li's thoughts quietly returned to his eyes. He nodded immediately to apologize and smiled and said, "I'm distracted, don't blame me." Zhuge Liang shook his head with a smile, saying that he didn't mind.
After a brief pause, Li Li said openly: "I won't say much polite words. I'm asking my brother to come here today to discuss something."
Zhuge Liang responded: "If you have any questions, please give me your orders. The poor ministers will do their best to live up to their entrustedness." The public and private affairs are clear. In terms of official affairs, Zhuge Liang abides by his duties and does not involve brotherly friendship.
Li Li nodded slightly and said with a kind look: "Let's go to a long story short, there are three things that need to be done by my brother. First, he ordered Gan Ning and his Jinfan Camp under his tent to go to Youzhou and ordered Gan Ning's troops to enter the Bohai Bay to train the naval army; and informed Li Xuan that the Jinfan Camp would expand the Jinfan Camp to 30,000 troops, increase the supply of money and grain from Jinfan Camp, and transported more than a hundred dragon bone warships built by Chang'an craft workshop to Youzhou, and handed over to Gan Ning for unified dispatch and use. Before I left Youzhou, I had known Huihua Xin and ordered him to build a port and a military camp in the southern suburbs of Yijing City, and try to supply the food and supplies needed by Jinfan Camp. If possible, there would be no upper limit for the troops of Jinfan Camp. The number of naval troops could be recruited is as much as possible. The more the more, the better."
Speaking of this, Li Li paused and Zhuge Liang nodded and understood, "The navy is indispensable and is inevitable. I believe that when Gongsun Zan was subdued, the lord had already begun to plan to expand the navy."
Li Li nodded gently: "That's true. I plan to give Gan Ning two years to train a naval army of 50,000 people. After the navy is completed, we will expand the army. In five years, a group of craftsmen will form a 100,000 naval army, or even more. During this period, a group of craftsmen will go to Youzhou to build warships on the spot to supply the needs of the navy."
After a brief pause, Li Li continued: "The second thing is to order Li Xian to go to Hanzhong and order Huang Zhong and Ma Chao to assist Li Xian to select 30,000 young and strong people from the Wuhuan people who had moved to Hanzhong before to form the Eagle Guard. The war horses needed will be supplied by Shuofang Horse Farm and Xiushu Horse Farm. Li Xian is appointed as the main general of the Eagle Guard, Li Su and Hu Cheer as the deputy generals, and temporarily stationed in Hanzhong. The food and supplies required will be supplied by Liangzhou and Hanzhong prefect Pei Qian."
"The last thing is to order the Huben Camp to go south to the Central Plains, temporarily station troops in Luoyang, and order Zhou Yu's troops to suspend the attack. At a short time, half a month or twenty days, I will rush to the battlefield in Hebei and attack Jizhou again at that time."
"No, I will get up and go to Chang'an." Zhuge Liang respectfully accepted the order, so he stood up and took his leave. Shi A followed closely and left quickly.
