All the generals accepted the order and left. Liu Mang also returned to his mansion from the main hall. Although there were many palaces in Shouchun, Liu Mang didn't want to be so high-profile because he didn't want others to see his extravagance. This was also Liu Mang's own self-motivation! Because the palace of Shouchun was built by his father-in-law, Yuan Shu, it was too luxurious. It was so luxurious that Liu Mang didn't want to leave after he moved in. Therefore, in order to strengthen his beliefs, he moved out of Shouchun Palace.
Liu Mang returned to his mansion and went straight to the study. Liu Mang wasn't idle either. He was also fully replenishing himself because in this era, the ancients couldn't be underestimated. Each and every one of them was very smart. Liu Mang didn't care about studying when he was a college student in his previous life. However, he wanted to study now. The reason for this was because he muddled through in the past. Now, if he didn't study, he might lose everything, including his life, his family, and his brothers. Therefore, Liu Mang didn't dare to not study.
Liu Mang was now holding a military book in his hand. It had the words "Sun Tzu's Art of War" written on it. This was a very ordinary military book, but it was also a very important military book. Liu Mang was now looking at the explanation of the mind in Sun Tzu's Art of War. It talked about a very famous strategy. Beauty Trap: If the soldiers are strong and the general is wise, he must be defeated first. Using land to increase his power, such as the matter of the Six Kingdoms of Qin: The strategy is the worst. Using money and silk to increase his wealth, such as the matter of the Song Dynasty: Liao Jin: The strategy is the worst. Using beauties to weaken his ambition, weaken his body, and increase his resentment. Using treasures to please Fu Chai, Gou Jian can turn defeat into victory. What was the meaning of this?
It was telling you that the power was strong, and the general was wise. Such an enemy couldn't be confronted head-on. For a period of time, you could only temporarily surrender to him. According to this saying, there were three ways to serve or please a strong enemy. The worst plan was to use the method of offering land, which would inevitably increase the enemy's strength. Just like how the six states fought over land to conquer Qin, there was no good result. The worst course of action was to use money, jewels, silk and satin to curry favor with the enemy, which would inevitably increase the enemy's wealth, just like how the Song Dynasty served the Liao and the Jin. Only by using a honey trap would it be effective. This way, it could wear down the will of the enemy general, weaken his constitution, and increase the resentment of his troops. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Yue King Gou Jian was defeated by the Wu King Fu Chai. He used beautiful women and precious jewels to please Fu Chai, causing him to be greedy and lose his vigilance. Later on, the Yue Kingdom defeated the Wu Kingdom.
Speaking of this honey trap, Liu Mang's cheap father-in-law and that unlucky Dong Zhuo were played to death by a mere scholar, Wang Yun! One Diao Chan girl was worth a hundred years of the Great Han Dynasty! Without Diao Chan, Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu would probably still be in their honeymoon phase.
Liu Mang was a little self-absorbed as he read. A honey trap, even if he died under a peony, he would still be a romantic ghost. When would he, Liu Mang, also be seduced and seduced for a while?! Liu Mang didn't know why, but Miss Lu's figure suddenly appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but shudder. With this woman around, it was better not to think of such unrealistic things. Liu Mang would probably be cut off by Miss Lu before he could even make a move! Previously, Yuan Fang and Qiao Yu were forced to accept Liu Mang. Otherwise, Liu Mang would have been completely under Miss Lu's control.
Liu Mang was reading with relish! Not long after, he felt thirsty in his mouth. It was natural to feel like this after reading for a long time. Moreover, one had to know that reading consumed a lot of saliva. Liu Mang didn't put down his book and directly shouted, "Servants, bring a pot of water to this King, this King is thirsty!"
"Yes, Your Highness, King Of Shu!" The maidservants outside responded to Liu Mang. Liu Mang's gaze was still on the book, and he didn't pay attention to the situation outside. Not long after, a beautiful figure opened the door and quietly entered the room. She even closed the door behind her.
The tea and teapot were all placed on the table, and she began to pour water into the teapot. The sound of flowing water could be heard, and a cup of tea was quickly filled.
Liu Mang didn't even raise his head and directly said, "Give me the tea, and you can leave!" Liu Mang, like others, didn't like to be disturbed when he was reading, because only then could he really focus on reading, and only then could he understand something.
"Okay!" The sound of pouring water was very sweet, but Liu Mang didn't pay much attention to it. The place that Liu Mang chose to build the Prince's Mansion wasn't small, and he could always choose some maidservants from a million people to work for the Prince's Mansion. Liu Mang didn't pay much attention to it because he had reached a profound part of the book in his hand.
He reached out his hand and prepared to take the tea that the maidservant brought over.
"Your Highness, King Of Shu, please be careful, this tea is just brought over, and it's a bit hot!" The pleasant voice continued in a low voice.
"Oh!" Liu Mang's hand touched the cup, and he prepared to take it directly. However, Liu Mang's hand was bigger, and when he took the cup, he also touched soft skin. His fingers ran over it, and it was very smooth. This woman's hand was really good. Liu Mang was about to raise his head to look, but Liu Mang didn't have time to react. Suddenly, the smooth skin shrank back. Liu Mang's hand was only holding a third of the cup, and the smooth hand suddenly withdrew. Liu Mang was caught off guard, and the cup directly slipped. Because of his martial arts, Liu Mang's speed was very fast, and the moment the cup slipped, he caught it. The cup was firmly caught by Liu Mang.
However, Liu Mang didn't catch the hot water in the cup.
"En?!" Liu Mang groaned, because the tea directly poured towards Liu Mang's crotch. Liu Mang had subconsciously avoided the hot water, so it didn't hurt his vital parts. However, the area around his vital parts was still drenched by the hot water.
The hot water was just boiled, and it was brought over. Even if he had clothes to block it, it still didn't feel good.
"How do you do things!" Liu Mang suddenly became angry. This maidservant was really too careless. How could such a person be accepted into the mansion? Liu Mang's temperament was changing, and he unconsciously had the emotions of a superior. Although he wouldn't directly kill this maidservant, he would let people drive her out of the mansion. What was the point of having such a careless maidservant?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Your Highness, please forgive me. I, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it!" The maidservant kept her head down and apologized to Liu Mang. She didn't know where to put her hands.
"Why are you still in a daze? Hurry up and help me clean up!" Liu Mang was really angry. This maidservant was careless, and she didn't even make up for her mistakes. How could Liu Mang not be angry? As for the maidservant not calling herself a maidservant, Liu Mang didn't care much.
Although Liu Mang avoided the hot water, Liu Mang wouldn't be careless. After all, it was related to the descendants of the Liu family. How could he not care? Also, the area around his vital parts was scalded, and he needed to breathe, otherwise it would be bad if it got infected.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The maidservant quickly took a towel, cloth and other things from the study room. Fortunately, the study room was big enough and everything was quite complete. Liu Mang looked at the maidservant and directly took a towel and quickly wiped the area that was scalded by the hot water.
Liu Mang's crotch has already been scalded, so he needs to open it for air. Liu Mang did not hide from the maidservant, so he directly tore open his pants and pulled it open. Sure enough, some parts of his legs have already turned red. If Liu Mang did not dodge in time, then the one who will be scalded would be his second brother.
"Ah!" The maidservant suddenly screamed, and her face turned red. She covered her eyes with one hand, but the gap between her fingers was so big. A pair of watery eyes seemed to be looking at Liu Mang's lower part.
"En?!" The maidservant's silence allowed Liu Mang to finally see the woman's appearance clearly. Although she covered it with her small hands, how much could his hands hide? Liu Mang could still see the woman's appearance clearly.
When Liu Mang saw the woman's appearance for the first time, he was stunned. Liu Mang had seen many beautiful women. His first wife, Miss Lu, was a great beauty. She had the genes of Lady Yan and Lü Bu. How could she be different? She had a pair of sword-like eyebrows and a heroic aura that other women did not have. She gave off a valiant feeling and was very captivating. Second Madam Yuan Fang was a pretty girl from a humble family and was also very beautiful. The Yuan family's genes were also quite good. Third Madam was a famous Da Qiao and could be considered a top-tier beauty in the Three Kingdoms.
However, even with these three wives, Liu Mang was still stunned by the woman in front of him. Because this woman had a kind of delicate beauty. Yes! It was the feeling of delicate beauty. She didn't have the immaturity of a young age, nor the dignity of a lady from a noble family. Instead, it was a kind of gorgeous beauty. Liu Mang's first impression when he saw her was the kind of delicate beauty that he saw in Japanese movies. She had a charm and a kind of beauty that made people want to hold her in their arms and play with her. Charm! That's right, it was charm. This kind of charming appearance made people want to go and check it out.
"Who are you? Why are you in my study? What are you doing in my mansion? " Liu Mang shook his head. He had almost fallen into her trap. Liu Mang dared to bet that he had never seen this woman in the mansion. If he had seen her before, it was impossible for him to forget her. It was very difficult for people to remember an ordinary person. For example, Liu Mang's appearance wasn't that bad. However, people who were ugly or beautiful could really be remembered. The woman in front of him was very beautiful and had a kind of temperament that other people didn't have. Liu Mang couldn't forget her. This person was definitely not someone from the mansion! At least, she wasn't someone who Liu Mang accepted into the mansion.
Liu Mang couldn't help but be on guard. Although beautiful women were good, his life was more important. Among the feudal lords, there would be assassins. Although there weren't many beautiful assassins, they still existed. Liu Mang didn't care that his pants were already taken off. He directly turned around and pulled out his long sword.
Liu Mang didn't bring Zhou Cang and Guan Hai with him because he was in his own mansion.
"I, I, I am!" The woman saw the long sword in Liu Mang's hand. The long sword was shining with a cold light. She knew that if she didn't say her identity and purpose, the long sword might really pierce her body.
The woman could only lower her body and half bow to Liu Mang before saying, "I am Zou Rong."
"Zou Rong?!" Liu Mang heard this name and pondered. He had never heard of this name before. The woman's words made Liu Mang feel even more strange.
The woman removed her jade-like hands that were covering her face. She looked at Liu Mang's crotch that was shaking as he held the sword. Her face became redder and redder as she said, "It, it was His Highness who allowed me to stay in the King Of Shu's mansion!"
"It was I who brought you into the King Of Shu's mansion?" Liu Mang was really confused. This woman was so beautiful. If Liu Mang brought her into the mansion, how could he not remember? He couldn't help but laugh coldly. "Don't talk nonsense. When did I bring you into the mansion? Quickly tell me your purpose of coming here and who is behind this. I may let you off for a while because you are a woman!" Liu Mang said with a murderous aura.
This murderous aura immediately made the beautiful woman pale in fright. It must be said that no matter what kind of action a good-looking person does, it would make people feel comfortable. Even though this woman was frightened by Liu Mang, she still had a different kind of beauty. That kind of appearance was like being bullied by Liu Mang, it made Liu Mang absent-minded for a moment.
"My late husband, Zhang Ji!" The beautiful woman opened her mouth and said this name.
"Zhang Ji?!" Liu Mang was stunned for a moment and then reacted. Zhang Ji, wasn't he the uncle of the Northern Spear King, General Yangwu, Zhang Xiu? The woman in front of him said that her late husband was Zhang Ji. She was also called Zou Rong. Liu Mang suddenly exclaimed, "You are Zou?!"
Liu Mang then remembered that this Zou seemed to be brought into the mansion by him. She came in as Zhang Xiu's family member. Liu Mang took Zhang Lei as his adoptive father, so he should have his own mansion. However, Zhang Lei was too young. Liu Mang planned to let him live in the mansion until he was dozens of years old. Zhang Lei was the center of Zhang Xiu's family members. Naturally, wherever Zhang Lei went, those Zhang Xiu's family members would go. Therefore, Zou Rong stayed in the mansion.
No wonder this woman was so gorgeous that she made people's eyes light up. They couldn't wait to pull her into their arms and play with her. It turned out that she was Mrs. Zou. Speaking of Mrs. Zou, she could be considered a figure. She was also a figure who left a deep mark in the history of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Wang Yun used Diao Chan to make Lü Bu kill Dong Zhuo, which started the era of warlords fighting for hegemony. The Young and Young Qiaos could be regarded as one of the reasons why Jiangdong and Cao Wei fought to the death. However, this Zou Rong was the person who made Cao Wei lose his heir. She could be regarded as a character who almost killed Cao Cao.
Lady Zou was originally taken in by Zhang Ji. Compared to Lady Zou, Zhang Ji would not even consider her as his father. This showed how beautiful Lady Zou was. After Zhang Ji died at Nanyang, Zhang Xiu took over the Xiliang Army and Lady Zou became a widow in Wancheng. Originally, Zhang Xiu was prepared to surrender to Old Cao under Jia Xu's persuasion. Old Cao also generously gave him the position of General Yang Wu. However, because of Lady Zou, Zhang Xiu's army and Cao Cao's army became enemies.
Lao Cao was a womanizer and had a pimp nephew, Cao Anmin. Naturally, Zou Rong could not hide from Cao Anmin in Wancheng. Cao Anmin wanted to introduce Zou Rong to his uncle, Cao Cao. When Cao Cao saw Zou Rong, he liked her very much. As a man, his wife, he probably liked women like Zou Rong the most. Cao Cao wanted to force Zou Rong to marry him. If Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu had a good talk, it would be fine. However, when he used force, Zhang Xiu immediately turned hostile.
Zhang Xiu, with the help of Jia Xu, attacked Cao Jun. Cao Cao's army was defeated. His general, Dian Wei, died in the battle. His beloved son, Cao Ang, and nephew, Cao Anmin, died in the chaos. His second son, Cao Pi, almost died as well. Lao Cao himself almost couldn't escape. It could be said that if Jia Xu was more vicious, Lao Cao would have been destroyed. How could such a woman not leave a mark in history?
"She deserves to be the woman that even Cao Cao likes!" Liu Mang looked at Zou Rong and couldn't help but nod. This woman's charming face and pitiful expression were simply seducing people to commit crimes.
"Why are you here?!" Liu Mang knew that this person was Zou Rong and that he brought her into the mansion. However, Liu Mang didn't bring her into the study. When Liu Mang was studying in the study, no one was allowed to approach and disturb him.
"I, I!" Zou Rong's face was full of embarrassment. Liu Mang didn't have the heart to question her. However, Liu Mang still wanted to get to the bottom of it. This mansion was not small and there were dozens of rooms. How could she, a woman, find her way here? Moreover, looking at the teapot and teacups on the table, how could she know that he was thirsty and wanted to drink water?
"Yes, yes!" Zou Rong stammered and didn't say anything.
"Say it! Otherwise, one person will go missing in the mansion today! " Liu Mang bit his tongue and forced himself to calm down. His face once again became cold. Inside the study room of the prince's mansion, if it was so easy for someone to sneak in, this time it was a woman. What if next time it was an assassin?! Liu Mang, who was skilled in martial arts, was afraid, let alone the family members in the mansion.
"I, I!" Looking at Liu Mang's appearance, Zou Rong was so scared that she was about to cry. Jade beads flowed out from her eyes. She stammered, "I, I promised Mr. Wenhe that I wouldn't tell anyone!"
"It's really him!" When Liu Mang heard Zou Rong's answer, he suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head. Usually, no one was allowed to disturb his study, but there were exceptions. For example, Liu Mang could call for Liu Mang when there was something important in the army. Another one was that the three foxes under Liu Mang's command could enter his study. Because there were some books in Liu Mang's study that could inspire the three of them. One of them was Jia Xu.
Xu Shu was an upright person. He would even use open schemes against the enemy, let alone his lord! Therefore, Xu Shu was removed. As for Liu Ye, he was a bit slick. However, Liu Ziyang did not dare to participate in Liu Mang's private life. So, the only one left was the old fox, Jia Xu.
The old fox, Jia Xu, was newly subdued by Liu Mang. His foundation in Yangzhou was shallow. Other than Zhang Hu and Ge Jun of the Xiliang Cavalry, he did not have any teammates. Liu Ye and Xu Shu were natural opponents of the old fox, Jia Xu. It was just like how Cheng Yu did not like Guo Jia in Cao Cao's army!
In order to increase his bargaining chips, the old fox would make the best use of everything. This was one of the reasons.
He arranged for Zou Rong to enter Liu Mang's study. His purpose was obvious! Moreover, when Liu Mang shouted just now, there were no female servants or servants around. They were probably sent away by the old fox!
Liu Mang's guess was right. Jia Xu and Zou Rong said that they wanted to help Zou Rong. He told Zou Rong that Zou Rong's beauty was irresistible. Instead of being coveted by others and being sent back and forth as goods, it was better to find a good seller and sell her. They directly went to Yangzhou's lord, Liu Mang! This could be considered as finding a good home for Zou Rong. Zou Rong also did not want to be exchanged as goods again! Back then, Cao Cao wanted to use Zou Rong as a good to please his uncle, Cao Cao! After that, if it were not for Cao Cao being too anxious and not giving face to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu would probably also send Zou Rong as a good to Cao Cao. It was like this in Wancheng. Zou Rong was really afraid that such a scene would happen again in Yangzhou. Women always wanted to live a stable life! Only then did she come to the study under Jia Xu's instigation.
Liu Mang was really grateful to this old fox. Zou Rong was really beautiful. It was hard for any man to resist. Liu Mang looked at Zou Rong's delicate appearance and her expression that she was at his mercy. It was simply irresistible.
Liu Mang could not help but salute at his vitals. However, Liu Mang did not dare to give her too much because there was a tiger in his family! The tiger in his family was already furious when he married Yuan Fang and Qiao Yu. If he married Zou Rong, he was afraid that the tiger would eat him.
Thinking of this, Liu Mang shook his head fiercely to keep his mind clear. He put away his sword and knife and reached out to Zou Rong. "Madam, it's getting late. You'd better go to bed early!"
Zou Rong saw that Liu Mang put away his sword and knife. Although his vital part was covered under the robe, the angle of his raised robe could not be hidden. Zou Rong could not help blushing. Her late husband, Zhang Xiu, had died for many years, but she had been living in Wan City. Zou Rong was much younger than Zhang Xiu. She was only in her twenties this year. If she were in the modern world, she would just be a girl who had just graduated from college and was preparing to find a job or take the postgraduate entrance examination. She was in the right age. She thought that Liu Mang's next book would be to talk to her about life ideals and the origin of human beings. Who knew that it would be like this? She could not help but exclaim, "Ah!
Ah! "" Yes, Madam. Please go back! "Liu Mang was also in pain. He could not eat the meat in his hand, and he did not dare to eat it.
Since Liu Mang said so, Zou Rong was not the kind of person who pestered endlessly. She was still very shy. She nodded and was about to leave.
However, before she said goodbye to Liu Mang, a voice suddenly came from outside the study. "Madam is back! First Madam is back! "
"First Madam?!" Liu Mang was stunned!
A delicate voice came from outside the study. This voice was full of anxiety, relief, and endless longing. "Husband, husband!"
Hearing this voice, Liu Mang looked at the scene in front of him. His heart suddenly sank. "It's over!"
