Chapter 1 Spring (Part 1)

This year, Zhu Chongjiu lived a very comfortable life.

Huaiyang Business Name is like a monster that can pull gold and trash. At the end of the year, it brought him huge dividends. In addition to the part that was given to backbones at all levels as a "year-end bonus", the rest is still an extremely pleasant number. In the last year, with the vigorous development of industry and commerce and the implementation of the integrated tax payment and tax payment policy of gentry and the people, the tax figures in the areas controlled by the Huai'an military have also risen steadily. In addition to maintaining the daily expenses of the government and the army, there is also a lot of surplus. He, the chief manager, no longer has to squat in the Dajiangyuan all day long to think about any "new inventions" that can make money.

While the tax surplus increased, the expenditures used by the General Administration to deal with the war were also greatly reduced. According to the idea of ​​stabilizing one place, the Huaiyang faction had no idea to continue to expand significantly. Therefore, in the Qizhou battlefield, only three brigades of troops were invested... With this little manpower alone, it was obviously impossible to drive the two Badulu and Ni Wenjun away. However, maintaining the stability of the front was no problem. Especially after the MIIS and Huaiyang Trading Company jointly took action, the Yuan army's counterattack became less and less powerful. Some people even sent back news that Yayabadulu was now very disappointed with the court. He was secretly conspiring with his subordinates to lead the troops back to Sichuan. He closed the door and broke the soil and became king.

There was no trouble with the national treasury and the battlefield. Zhu Chongjiu had more time to celebrate the New Year with his humerus. On the morning of the first day of the lunar month, Su Mingzhe and Lu Lu Zeng wore the robe of Wu Guogong given to Han Liner like monkeys. In the conference hall, he accepted the congratulations from the civil and military officials under his command. At noon, he ordered people to book a restaurant under the name of Huaiyang Business Name and took everyone to have a "zhengdan banquet". In the evening, the civil officials went back to their respective houses. The military generals stayed in a tacit understanding and continued to chat with their own governors. They drank until someone accidentally overturned the table before ending with a laugh.

On the morning of the second day of the lunar month, he had to change into coarse cloth clothes and attend the village festival with Lu Shuanger. He represented the more than 8 million people in the entire Huaiyang and Xusui area. He offered six animals to heaven and earth, burned incense and prayed. He asked God to bless all over the place. This year, the weather was good and the grains were good.

When it was the third year of junior high school, it was the time for Mr. Wu and his wife to perform a "people-friendly" show in public. Under the arrangement of Lu Luzeng, the Grand General Administration selected 100 old men over 70 from all over the country. They had lunch with Zhu Chongjiu and Lu Shuanger. At the same time, they listened to the reactions of the elders to the gains and losses of the previous year and the officials in various places under the rule of the Grand General Administration. They adopted the helpful advice and selected the most public resentment to make adjustments.

On the fourth day of the lunar month, he specially set up to meet local civil and military officials who returned from Yangzhou Road to the chief executive to pay New Year's greetings. On the fifth day of the lunar month, he spent all day on the school grounds, inspecting new recruits and comforting veterans who retired from injury. On the sixth day of the lunar month, he made a special trip to Jiangwan New City. He inspected hundreds of workshops and military aircraft such as making coins, minting cannons and making guns.

It was not until the seventh day of the lunar month that I finally got busy. In the morning, I explained to the heads of the Eighth Bureau, the Second Office, and the backbone of the General Staff Head Office in the conference hall to the matters that I need to pay attention to recently. At lunch time, I dragged my lazy tendons and ran back to the back house.

There was still a little chill in the air. But the plum blossoms on both sides of the corridor were already in full bloom... Whenever a breeze blew, the petals would fly colorfully like snow, making the people walking in the corridor feel like they were in the ocean of petals. The fragrance was swaying and the warmth gushed all over their heads and faces.

In Zhu Chongjiu's memory, the plum blossoms in another time and space should not look like this. The plants that bloom all over the trees and fall like snow should be cherry blossoms. But his botany level in his previous life was as bad as his chasing girls. So he did not dare to show his ugly face in this life. He just followed the crowd and regarded the fallen cherry blossoms as plum blossoms.

Thinking of another time and space, he was just an otaku. He didn't even pull a girl's hand a few times. He married nine wives at one time in his life. He felt that the scene in front of him seemed like a dream. When he was lying on the Internet to read novels, he married seventeen or eighteen wives to others. He drooled in the big harem. When it was his turn to him, he realized that unless his heart was strong enough, too many wives might not be a blessing...

At least, whenever he sees the resentment that comes out of his eyes inadvertently, his heart always seems to be secretly poked by someone's needle. However, if he put eight concubines home, he dare not mention it again. Because when he first discussed with Lu Shuang'er, the answer he got was, "You husband wants to put me in the name of jealousy. You still have to force them to death. Since you have entered the Zhu family's door, whether you like them or not, it is their life. If you are released, let alone no one dares to take them in. Just the rumors of the world can force them to find a way out."

"This" When he first heard Lu Shuang'er's words, Zhu Chongjiu was still a little skeptical. But as he adapted to life and understood folk customs, he found that his wife said nothing wrong. In this time and space, a perfect woman not only requires being beautiful, gentle, and having a chess, calligraphy and painting, but also requires that she can eliminate her jealousy by herself. Know how to recommend a suitable wife to her husband. The more a family of princes, the more this happens. Otherwise, they are shrews and jealous women. They will be deposed as many notories before their death. They will still be criticized for hundreds of years after their death.

"It seems that men and women are equal. I'm afraid I won't even mention it in my life." Zhu Chongjiu is not a straight male cancer. Of course, he would not take the initiative to promote feminism. So he had to adopt a willing attitude. He always left all the things in the backyard to Lu Shuang'er. He ignored him and ignored him.

And Lu Shuang'er was a rare and smart woman. She knew her husband's temperament, so she was not worried about her own status. Instead, she became more and more kind and respectful to the other eight dowries. In this way, Zhu Chongjiu's harem was peaceful. There had never been any messy battles between wives and concubines. She had never made a lot of housework to upset him.

But today, the atmosphere in the backyard was obviously a little wrong. Hearing his footsteps, the wife who would have come to meet quickly in the past was nowhere to be seen. The other eight concubines were silent. The whole back house was quiet, and there was little bird singing. Only the parrot hanging on the branches at the door of the second hall saw Zhu Chongjiu's figure passing through the sea of ​​flowers. He suddenly opened his voice and shouted loudly: "Husband is back. Husband is back. Husband is back." Every time he screams, he changes his voice. It sounds extremely charming.
