Yuan Shu's ambition was not small. Sun Jian was a truly formidable person. Although Liu Bei had hidden himself well, he was not easy to deal with. Now that the three of them were entangled, it was not a bad thing for Yang Rui. ● Tsk.
Cao Cao and Lu Bu did not take any action. They should have already grasped the situation in Peng City. The only reason they did not take any action was that they were happy to see Peng City's situation.
A delicate balance was temporarily established between the various vassals of Xu Province. The situation seemed to be calm. However, anyone with some knowledge could feel that this balance was just the calm before the outbreak.
"Ning 'er, Dai' er, Yao 'er. Take advantage of this leisure time, I have ordered the cook to prepare some dishes. Do you like them?"
In the small meeting room of Sky City, Yang Rui used his rare leisure time to invite Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao over to prepare a table of family banquet.
During the imperial wedding, Yang Rui was indeed a little thoughtless. Moreover, the matter was completely handled by Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Sun Qian, and a few other strategists. In order to increase the influence of the wedding and to gather as many famous female historical figures as possible, Yang Rui made a lot of compromises.
However, Yang Rui had neglected the fact that the game world was no less real than the real world. He had also neglected the importance of status to the women in this world. As a result, Yang Rui increasingly felt that he was too irresponsible!
Therefore, Yang Rui held such a family banquet in his spare time in the evening. However, because he wasn't good at winning over people, and the estrangement caused by a long period of time, the atmosphere at the dinner table looked a bit strange.
"Thank … my husband …"
"Thank you …"
"Thank you …"
"Thank you …"
"Thank you …"
"Thank you …"
Although she already had Yu 'er and had the most contact with Yang Rui, due to a freak combination of factors from the beginning, Zhang Ning blushed every time she spoke.
Han Dai was not much better. She had known Yang Rui for a long time. Moreover, Yang Rui had helped her and her family, including Han Fu, later on, she had always been grateful to Yang Rui. However, the two of them did not have much direct contact.
Needless to say, Ding Yao barely had any contact with Yang Rui. Coupled with her cold personality, she was not as shy as Zhang Ning and Han Dai. However, there was not much expression on her face. No one knew what she was thinking.
"I would like to propose a toast to the three of you … Madams. Thank you for stepping forward when the Qing Province and the Yan Province were empty and guarding the city and territory for me."
No matter what, Yang Rui was a player in the real world. Although he was not very good at sweet-talking, the atmosphere did not change. However, it was not enough for the atmosphere to continue to be awkward. He proposed to have a drink with Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao, and thanked them a lot.
"My husband, you don't have to do this. My husband is committed to the stability and development of Qingzhou and Yan Province. It can be said that you have put in a lot of effort. The livelihood of the people is not easy. Thus, it is my duty to maintain the stability of Qingzhou and Yan Province.
Actually, it is not just the three of us. For example, Cai Yan, Diaochan, Wei Xiu 'er, Gan Qian, Mi Zhen, Sisi, and other sisters. Although they did not bring soldiers, they have been guarding Linzi City. It is not much easier than us … "
"…"
As the leader of the nine madams, when Yang Rui mentioned the military deployment, Zhang Ning quickly resonated with him. She said what was on her mind. Moreover, her words were very considerate of the overall situation.
"Ning 'er is the most tired. It is not easy to bring Yu' er along. Now, I have to wear a military uniform. Rushing to the battlefield, I feel very guilty … "
"…"
"My husband …"
"…"
"…"
"…"
When Zhang Ning said what was on her mind, Yang Rui felt even more unbearable. When he was in school, he used to think that Liu Bei was incompetent. He repeatedly caused his wives to fall into the battlefield. Now, Yang Rui himself wanted his wives to go to the battlefield. Actually, if he thought about it carefully, he would not be any better.
"Dai 'er and Yao' er have also worked hard. When my army is filled with generals, I will not let my wives suffer the hardships of the battlefield …"
"…"
Yang Rui felt the lack of manpower. When he wanted to explain, he felt that he was as hypocritical as Liu Bei. Thus, he did not explain anymore and drank two or three cups.
At this point, Yang Rui could understand the historical facts and Liu Bei's situation. Although there was a difference between the current situation and Liu Bei's wife being captured several times, the reason was not much different. It was because of the lack of manpower!
"My husband, you don't have to do this. It is our honor to be able to do something for my husband. Moreover, we have nothing to do all day long in the boudoir …"
"…"
Zhang Ning, Han Dai, and Ding Yao were all famous historical figures. How could they not understand Yang Rui's feelings? Han Dai naturally understood. She wanted to say a few words of comfort. However, in the end, there was a trace of hidden bitterness in her words.
Han Dai's words seemed to have touched the common thoughts of the three women. When Han Dai realized that she had said something wrong and stopped, the three women almost simultaneously lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Looking at the shy and helpless expressions of the three women, Yang Rui felt even more guilty.
As a player in the real world, Yang Rui suddenly felt that he had been too hypocritical. In this world, he was the husband of the three women in front of him. He was the one they could rely on. Yang Rui, on the other hand, had always been evasive. At least in this world, Yang Rui's actions were irresponsible!
Based on various signs, this world was actually the same as the real world. It was a real world. Otherwise, there would not be Soul Items that could be brought to the real world. There would not be Diaochan who could exchange for Soul Items in the real world.
There would also not be a situation where Yang Rui was suddenly revived after being hunted down.
…
"Sha sha sha …"
"…"
"…"
"…"
Yang Rui looked at the three beautiful ladies in front of him, and a sense of pride welled up in his heart. Just as he was about to express himself, he suddenly sensed that there seemed to be some abnormalities below the Sky Castle.
With Yang Rui's current strength, his perception had greatly increased. When Yang Rui looked down from the window of the small meeting room, he saw a large number of cavalry and infantry soldiers heading north in the direction of his camp. Cao Cao and Lu Bu probably could not wait any longer and were about to attack his camp at night.
In order to better grasp the movements of the two parties, Yang Rui had always parked Sky City near the two camps. Thus, he immediately grasped the changes in their movements.
