After thinking for a while, Yang Rui walked to the nearest courtyard. Anyway, Yang Rui did not have a clear destination at this time, so it did not matter where he went.
However, Yang Rui could also roughly confirm that the courtyards in the surrounding area were probably the courtyards of the Queen and Consort level families. Currently, Yang Rui's original intention was to first get in touch with the twenty or so people in this category.
Of course, among the Consorts, there were two that Yang Rui did not want to easily get in touch with. They were the players Burning Snow and Rose.
Yang Rui actually intended to have a chat with the two of them. After the imperial wedding, he would ask the two female players to do as they please. However, he was delayed by a day because he had to receive Yuan Shu's messenger and Zhang Rang's agent.
After that, Yang Rui and Chen Xiaonan spent a day together in the real world, so Yang Rui did not have time to talk to them about this matter until now.
Fortunately, the courtyard Yang Rui walked into was not the courtyard of Burning Snow and Rose, but Fang Lan, who had been serving Yang Rui for a long time, so it was less awkward.
Although Fang Lan was born as a pirate leader and was a boatman in the boundless ocean, the reason for this situation was not Fang Lan herself. In essence, she was still a very "traditional" woman.
Therefore, when Fang Lan saw Yang Rui's arrival, she was happy and shy. At the same time, the two of them were already very familiar with each other. It was because of this that they did not know how to proceed.
If it was in the past, this awkward situation might have lasted, but now, Yang Rui had experienced a lot. He only needed to talk about one thing to break the deadlock.
Yang Rui took the initiative to talk about the scene when the two of them first met. At that time, Yang Rui was exploring Fang Lan's pirate base, Homesickness Island, alone. He also had the intention to capture the leader first to capture the bandits. However, he happened to bump into Fang Lan, the female pirate leader, who was taking a bath.
Moreover, the situation later exceeded Yang Rui's expectations. The first time they met, Fang Lan was "honest" with him. It was also from that time that Fang Lan had something on her mind.
Sometimes, women were so strange. Clearly, it started from a "mistake", but they still wanted to maintain the established facts and continue a certain mistake. As a man, Yang Rui naturally would not understand this.
Just this one topic was enough to make Fang Lan bashfully throw herself into Yang Rui's arms. What happened next was just a matter of pushing the boat along with the current. At the same time, Fang Lan's wish was finally fulfilled.
After two days, Fang Lan was already familiar with the situation in the inner courtyard. Yang Rui also happened to learn about the situation of the owners of the various courtyards from Fang Lan. He did not have to wander around aimlessly anymore.
Yang Rui also learned from Fang Lan that the courtyards in the inner courtyard were given special treatment. For example, Yuan Fang, Cao Jie, Lv Wen, Dong Yi, Burning Snow, Rose, and the other princesses were arranged to the neighboring courtyards. They were also protected by a large number of Fifth Grade personal female guards.
Although it was called a defense, it was actually to prevent any problems from happening to these people. After all, Yuan Fang was the daughter of the enemy force, Yuan Shao. Cao Cao's father, Cao Jie, was in a similar situation. Lv Wen was basically married to the enemy who killed her father.
Dong Yi was also married to the enemy who killed her father. It was just that it had been a long time.
Burning Snow and Rose were also given special treatment due to their identity as players.
Even the Fifth Grade personal female guards were no match for famous historical figures. However, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Sun Qian, Xun You, and the others had made arrangements in advance.
The few of them arranged the Qianji Black Armored Battalion. The personal female guards were assigned to guard the positions of the array flag. Ding Yao, Huang Wudie, and Fang Lan's courtyards were located at the most important positions of the array core.
Ding Yao, Huang Wudie, and Fang Lan were all famous historical figures. Ding Yao was also the commander. Before the wedding, she had already learned about the arrangements made by Cheng Yu and the others. Huang Wudie and Fang Lan were also told to guard the array core in their courtyards carefully.
Fang Lan only learned that the array core of the Qianji Black Armored Battalion that she was guarding was located at her bed after the wedding ceremony. The other two, Ding Yao and Huang Wudie, were probably in the same situation.
In this way, the Fifth Grade personal guards would be able to turn the Qianji Black Armored Battalion around as long as the concubines made any strange movements.
As long as Ding Yao, Huang Wudie, and Fang Lan guarded the array core, they would be able to stop enemies several times stronger than them. Even if the concubines made a move together, the Qianji Black Armored Battalion would automatically split them up.
After learning about this, Yang Rui immediately felt that Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Sun Qian, and Xun You had put a lot of thought into this. Yang Rui had been worried about the possibility of an anomaly among the concubines and was thinking about how to isolate them. He didn't expect Cheng Yu and the others to have already thought about this.
However, this wasn't the only solution. They couldn't keep restricting the freedom of Yuan Fang and the others, could they? That would be no different from putting them under house arrest or banishing them to the cold palace.
"Cheng Yu and the others have said that this situation won't drag on for too long. My Lord must have a solution."
This was the answer that Fang Lan gave to Yang Rui when he asked. Yang Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Yang Rui naturally knew what Cheng Yu and the others were referring to. Setting aside the fact that Burning Snow and Rose were players, Yuan Fang, Cao Jie, Lu Wen, and Dong Yi would become Yang Rui's people as long as they became the concubines of the Eastern Sea.
This was one of the reasons why Yang Rui had organized so many weddings in order to gather as many famous historical figures as possible.
However, it was not so simple in name. During the last wedding, Yang Rui had already understood that they had to be a real husband and wife before they could truly submit to him. Only then could they see each other's character attributes.
Therefore, Yang Rui immediately understood the meaning of Cheng Yu and the others. He just had to try it one by one. Those who truly submitted to Yang Rui would naturally not have any accidents. Even if there were accidents, he could use coercive means to make them truly submit!
The game's setting could probably be explained by "a day as husband and wife means endless devotion for the rest of your life." After submitting, their loyalty could be checked in the character attribute list. At that time, everyone's thoughts could be seen.
Those with a high degree of loyalty could be determined to have no disloyalty, and those with a low degree of loyalty were likely to have problems, or they might have made other moves before this.
This matter might seem awkward to analyze, but in fact, it was just "using coercion." Once the character attribute list appeared, everyone's true intentions would be clear.
In this regard, Yang Rui suddenly felt quite a headache. For a moment, he thought of delaying this matter, but if he delayed it, he would have to spend a lot of energy on them.
At noon the next day, Yang Rui slept until noon. After washing up and eating, Yang Rui first found Burning Snow and Rose and gathered them in the same courtyard.
"My two bosses, let me call you that for the time being. Shouldn't we have a chat with each other?" Yang Rui wanted to liven up the atmosphere with a half-joking tone. His relationship with Burning Snow and Rose was still somewhat strange.
However, Yang Rui's livening up of the atmosphere did not have the desired effect. Whether it was Burning Snow or Rose, after hearing Yang Rui's words, they were slightly stunned and then fell silent.
Yang Rui suddenly realized that it might be inappropriate to call these two female players together to talk. Perhaps if he talked to them one by one, he could obtain some of their true thoughts.
"Well, I won't beat around the bush. Let me put it this way. I want to know what the two of you plan to do?" Yang Rui continued.
However, after hearing this, Burning Snow and Rose still did not speak. Rose opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but then she fell silent again.
The two female players' attitude was actually very obvious. They just wanted to wait passively and see what Yang Rui wanted to talk to them about. This could be considered as an advantage of being a "vulnerable group".
Facing Burning Snow and Rose's attitude, Yang Rui suddenly felt helpless. After sorting out his thoughts, he continued to take the initiative to speak.
"Miss Burning Snow, Miss Rose …"
"That's unpleasant to hear …"
"Can't you change the way you address us? In any case, the two of us are your concubines … "
Who knew that as soon as Yang Rui opened his mouth, he would immediately be refuted by Burning Snow and Rose. Just a moment ago, Yang Rui thought that they were not going to speak.
Therefore, due to the influence of the environment, there was a big difference in temperament between women in the real world and women in the game. At the very least, women in the game would never talk to Yang Rui like this.
Yang Rui was immediately speechless. His originally organized thoughts were interrupted.
At this time, Yang Rui could not help but recall the research of European scientists on the thinking of men and women in the real world. It was mentioned that men had a ladder-like thinking, while women had a net-like thinking. This resulted in a difference in the main and minor points of attention.
On this point, whether it was women in the real world or women in the game, they were somewhat in line with this conclusion. They were more concerned about the right and wrong of the details.
In the real world, there was also a saying in China that there were only two ways to treat women. Either there was no reason to speak to them, or there was no reason to speak to them. The former naturally described their thinking, while the latter described the only way to treat them was to use violent means.
Of course, this saying was also a half-joking way of saying it. It was only a specific example.
"Well, the two of you, I want to say …"
"Tsk …"
"You don't even have a way to address us, right?"
Yang Rui wanted to continue the topic just now, but he was interrupted by Burning Snow and Rose.
Originally, Burning Snow and Rose were at the level of bosses. In the past, they were capable and had a sense of the big picture. He did not expect that there was a side to them that was unknown to others. This surprised Yang Rui quite a bit.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business."
Yang Rui felt that if this atmosphere continued, he might not have a chance to express his intention to the two of them this time. So, he quickly put away his half-joking attitude.
"What I mean is that the wedding process is over. Shouldn't the two of you consider doing your own things? Even if it's for the sake of your own reputation, the longer you stay here, the more excuses you'll give to others.
I don't care about this, but as women, you should also plan for the future, right? Otherwise, others will think that there is really something between us, and that won't be good. "
Originally, Yang Rui intended to be tactful, but in the end, he directly said his true purpose. After all, from the beginning, Yang Rui was sure that he was just putting on a show. At this time, he should not be ambiguous.
After Yang Rui finished speaking, Burning Snow and Rose were stunned. It seemed that they did not expect him to be so direct.
"What? Husband, are you trying to drive us away? Do you think that if we leave now, we will be innocent? It's been a few days since the wedding. Do other people think so too? "
This time, Burning Snow was the first to speak. She emphasized the word "husband". Rose lowered her head and did not speak again.
"Uh …"
Yang Rui was speechless for a while. In fact, even if Burning Snow and Rose left at this time, with the habit of people in the real world, they really would not let go of this topic.
"So, I will not leave. If you think that I wasted the accommodation and food, just calculate the expenses. I will bear it myself …"
"Yes, I will also not leave. I will bear the accommodation and food expenses myself!"
"Don't worry that I will spy on your core secrets. I will sleep in the courtyard every day. I am too lazy to care about what you think is a secret …"
"Then let's put it this way. I also yearn for a life of eating and sleeping. Sleeping and eating life …"
"…"
Blazing Flame Flying Snow and Rose, the two big shots in front of people, were acting unruly at this moment. They talked back and forth energetically, making Yang Rui speechless again.
Then, no matter what Yang Rui said, Burning Snow and Rose were determined not to leave. In the end, Yang Rui had to retreat in defeat.
The first thing Yang Rui did was to mess up this matter. Before he came, he had underestimated this matter. He also did not consider the impact of the wedding on Burning Snow and Rose. At this time, it was obviously impossible for the two of them to leave with a clean slate.
Yang Rui was somewhat helpless about this. At the same time, he could not think of a good solution. This situation was already destined when Yang Rui agreed to let Burning Snow and Rose be the candidates for the wedding.
Burning Snow and Rose were unwilling to leave, but it was not a big problem for the time being. As long as Yang Rui was a little concerned, it would not be easy for them to come into contact with secrets. As for accommodation and food, the two women were naturally disgusted by Yang Rui's words.
This matter could only be put aside. Yang Rui turned to consider the matters of Yuan Fang, Cao Jie, Lv Wen, and Dong Yi.
In contrast, dealing with this matter was more urgent. Originally, Yang Rui was prepared to first speak and communicate with each of them. However, due to the influence of Burning Snow and Rose, Yang Rui decided to deal with it concisely after thinking about it again.
Yang Rui did not wait for the time. If he did something, it would be more conspicuous at night. Now that it was daytime, few people would pay attention to it.
