Zhao Yun's brain completely froze at this moment. He had just mustered up the courage to push the Lord against the wall, and could barely utter a few words. But now his heart was beating like crazy and almost jumping out of his throat, and he couldn't utter a word.
"Speaking of which, you have followed me for four years. You are almost twenty years old now. You don't have any family in Changshan Country. You brought three hundred soldiers from Changshan with me to fight in Hedong and Bingzhou. You are drifting in the world without even a home."
Liu Zhuang squatted down slightly, looked Zhao Yun straight in the eyes, and asked sincerely with some guilt.
"Although I can only marry you as a concubine due to the Han law, I am willing to treat you, Fengxian, Boji and the others as my own wives, without any distinction between superior and inferior. From today on, we are a family. I wonder if Zilong is willing."
Zhao Yun widened his eyes in surprise. He didn't expect that Liu Zhuang would say what he had been trying to say for a long time. A strong sense of happiness rushed into his mind and he nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Chapter 201: Three People Make a Trip
In this way, after Liu Zhuang married Gao Huan, one of the army commanders, as his concubine, he also took the captain Zhang Liao and his own chief guard Zhao Yun as concubines.
The people in Liuzhuang's army counted and found that almost all the capable female generals in the army had been married to the prince and became his family and clan members.
Female lieutenants who were not married, such as Zhang He and Xu Huang, were also a little nervous at the moment. What the hell was going on? Did the Lord love female generals so much? If this trend continued, I would be the next one, right? ? ?
Zhang He was very nervous. After all, he was from a small noble family in Jizhou. He was not a woman from a noble family like Gao Huan who had lost all her dignity and was willing to be someone's concubine. He was not a peasant like Zhao Yun or Zhang Liao. If the Lord wanted to marry me as a concubine, how could I refuse in a proper way? How could I refuse to be a concubine without damaging the close comradeship between the Lord and me?
Xu Huang was also very nervous, but unlike Zhang He, she was born a commoner and knew how big the gap was between her and the Lord of the Mansion. She could accept being taken as a concubine by someone in a higher position. What she was thinking at the moment was, if the Lord of the Mansion also wanted to take me as a concubine, would I also be promoted???
On March 3rd of the sixth year of Zhongping, amid the cheers of numerous captains, military officers, and four types of personal soldiers: Thunder Warriors, Han people, Greenskins, and Centaurs, Liu Zhuang married Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun as his concubines at the same time. At the moment everyone was in Yanmen and there was no way to create a grand scene, so Liu Zhuang could only do his best to give the two women a fairly solemn wedding. More than 2,400 personal soldiers of Liu Zhuang cheered for their superiors and completely became Liu Zhuang's bedmates.
At night, Liu Zhuang also entered Guangwu's bridal chamber, holding Zilong and Wenyuan in his arms, and had passionate conversations with the two brides, slowly unbuttoning their clothes with his hands.
Zhao Yun's youthful and handsome face was as pale as ice and snow. Even his eyebrows and pupils were pure white. Although he was a little excited and nervous, his expression did not change much. He was as cold and flawless as eternal ice, somewhat noble, and also a little dull.
The white and delicate ice-like skin and bones were like beautiful jade without any flaws. The flat breasts tried to stand up, but the effect was still not good. In the eyes of Liu Zhuang, who was used to seeing big breasts, there was also a special flavor. With a little teasing, two scarlet grapes stood proudly on the flat snowy plain. The long silver hair fell on her slender and slender body like a waterfall.
"Ha, you're almost twenty, why haven't you grown up yet?"
Unlike the very nervous and dull Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao was as energetic as a wild child even on his wedding night. She tried to weigh Zhao Yun's flat breasts, but found there was no meat to weigh. Then she proudly raised her proud snow-capped peaks, swaying in the air with alluring curves, which made Zhao Yun's eyes red.
Maybe it's because of the difference in diet. The girls from Bingzhou who have a lot of pastures and meat, eggs and milk supplements all have big hearts, such as Lu Bu, Xu Huang and Zhang Liao.
People like Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan, and Zhang He, who grew up in the traditional farming area of Jizhou, all have cute breasts.
"At least I don't need to wrap my chest! When the enemy attacks, I can just get up and fight. But if you get up and don't wrap these two pieces of flesh, your shoulders might be broken if you sway during the fight! I, I don't envy you!"
Zhang Liao provoked a ripple on Zhao Yun's cold face.
"Besides, I'm one centimeter taller than you! It's your fault that all the nutrition you get went to your breasts!"
Seeing that the two enemies started quarreling again, Liu Zhuang smiled and stroked the heads of the two girls and said, "How about you compete in endurance on the bed? Whoever reaches orgasm first loses?"
Suddenly hearing such explicit words, not to mention Zhao Yun, even Zhang Liao lowered his head in embarrassment, with a shameful blush on his face. Their voices had been louder and louder during the quarrel just now, but now as they nodded in agreement, their voices became softer and softer.
Liu Zhuang crossed his hands under Zhao Yun's armpits and gently lifted up the girl in front of him like holding a cat. The proud long spear slowly passed over her slender legs, slowly spread open the pink petals, and deeply penetrated into them. Zilong gritted his teeth, and with a chance of bleeding, he tried hard to restrain the pleasure and pain coming from inside his body, but still groaned. After it was completely inserted, her fair and small belly button was even pressed against the hideous outline of the long spear.
Liu Zhuang slowly began to move. Zilong was completely panicked at this moment. The pleasure, pain, and the tearing and satisfaction in her lower body intertwined together, almost instantly crushing her spirit. The violent impact at the beginning made her soar into the sky with a moving gasp! Her beautiful face, expressionless as ice, was melting and collapsing at this moment.
Stimulated by this unknown feeling, she wanted to escape, but seeing her husband's satisfied expression, she gritted her teeth and endured it, enduring each more intense passion and pleasure, and gradually became addicted to it, twisting her flexible waist in turn to coordinate with her husband's movements.
Zhang Liao blushed as he watched the live sex scene in front of him. He quickly raised his hands and covered his eyes. Then he opened them with two fingers, revealing two small slits. He stared at the erotic scene of the two people having sex, as if he would not feel ashamed if he did this. He also began to count accurately and calculate the time according to his breathing frequency.
"one two Three……"
The unstoppable Wuding Flying Dragon on the battlefield could not even last a minute under the fierce attack of the veteran Liu Zhuang. Relying on his double pupils, Liu Zhuang found Zilong's weakness after several attacks. Her ears and vagina were extremely sensitive. Just blowing on her or touching her would cause her whole delicate body to spasm and tremble, and her ten round, jade-like toes were curled up together.
Liu Zhuang only launched a few fierce attacks on her flower heart, which made her eyes roll back and reveal a look of ecstasy. Her spirit was hit again and again and reached the sky of ecstasy. Her slender limbs spasmed and trembled. Not to mention the climax, she even wet the bed sheets.
"Ah? I only counted fifty, and that's it? That's it? Wu Ding Fei Long couldn't even make it to a hundred?"
Before Zhang Liao could finish his arrogant and gloating words, he was lifted up by Liu Zhuang in the same way. Zilong was paralyzed for ten seconds before he recovered, savoring the joy he had just experienced.
However, Wen Yuan could not be arrogant for long. The long spear had just pierced into him. The pain and pleasure that exceeded the human body's endurance limit made every nerve in Wen Yuan tremble and his whole brain burn! His limbs struggled involuntarily, but he could not break free from Liu Zhuang's arms. He watched helplessly as the spear pushed out a hideous and terrifying outline on his abdomen!
"hiss--"
Under this extraordinary stimulation, Wen Yuan took a deep breath and suddenly understood why Zilong collapsed after only counting fifty. This kind of brain-burning and trembling ecstasy made people crazy, but looking at Zilong's gloating face, she had to force herself to reject the surging pleasure in her heart, listening to Zhao Yun's gloating counting, and trying her best to hold on.
After Zilong counted to fifty, Wen Yuan gave up resisting as if she had been pardoned. Her body control completely collapsed, her eyes rolled back, her tongue exposed, and a trickle of liquid flowed down her fair and slender legs, all over the bed.
Zilong pouted angrily. How come she could count to fifty?

Chapter 202: The Han Emperor Passes Away
April 11, 1917
Liu Zhuang guarded the northern border at the newly built Yanmen Pass to intimidate the Xianbei, and several prefects under his command also managed the land in an orderly manner. The complete Hedong County and Taiyuan County provided him with a large amount of land, food, and population.
The incomplete Xihe County and Yanmen County also provided him with an excellent strategic barrier, making Taiyuan and Hedong counties very safe inland areas, free from war and chaos, allowing them to resume production and focus on farming. The entire Bingzhou and Hedong were under the management of Liu Zhuang and operated in an orderly manner.
But at this moment, a bolt from the blue struck from the sky.
Today, Emperor Han Liu Hong passed away - this sad news quickly spread throughout the entire Han Empire. It was said that he overdrew his kidneys while having sex in Xiyuan a few days ago, and he fell into a coma and fainted on a woman's belly. In the end, the imperial physician was unable to rescue him, so he could be said to have lost to the woman.
When the Han emperor passed away, the whole country was in mourning, and the whole Bingzhou was tense for a while.
Before, each family just thought that there might be chaos in the world, and there would be chaos, but no one could tell the exact time. They just prayed that the chaos would come later, and started to store supplies to make final preparations for the chaos in the world.
But now, the whole empire is in rebellion on all sides, fires are rising in all directions, the Hu people in the three states of You, Bing and Liang are attacking the border, the Yellow Turbans in Ji, Yan and Yu in the Central Plains are in chaos, the whole empire is filled with war!
At this critical juncture, the emperor who could coordinate and manage all this simply died of illness? He abandoned the empire that was on fire on all sides? ? ?
Let's see who can inherit the throne. Well, Liu Hong did not have a crown prince during his lifetime, and his two children, seventeen-year-old Liu Bian and eight-year-old Liu Xie... were not yet adults.
It is foreseeable that there will be a fierce fight for the throne in Luoyang, and a super-powerful official like Huo Guang will be born to control the government before these two children come of age!
In order to decide the throne and the position of the super powerful minister, the whole Luoyang is likely to be engulfed in another round of bloody power struggle.
Now there are rebellions and chaos everywhere. As the center of the empire, Luoyang is not only unable to coordinate the various parties to suppress the rebellion, but now you even have to fight a civil war yourself???
At this moment, the blood of some local noble families ran cold. They found that the chaos in the world that they had been afraid of and worried about in the past few years had begun the final countdown since the moment Liu Hong passed away. The imperial court was already almost unreliable, and now a civil war was about to break out. It seems that we can only rely on ourselves and find ways to survive!
For a time, noble families from all over the empire tried every possible means to survive.
In Bingzhou, Yangqu Guo's solution was to add military forces under the command of her legitimate daughter, Liu Zhuang's wife, Guo Huai.
Liu Zhuang's father-in-law Guo Yu, after withdrawing to the inland, no longer had any defensive pressure, so he directly transferred all the family's troops and private soldiers to Guo Huai's command. Almost all the soldiers in the family were invested in Liu Zhuang, but they were nominally managed by Guo Huai.
The Guo family's private army consisted of a battalion of 2,500 soldiers, which was appointed by Liu Zhuang as the Yangqu Battalion. Guo Huai also served as the Sima of the other department of this battalion.
Up to now, only his 2,000 personal cavalry, and the two old camps of Baima and Zhangshui are fully armed with armored soldiers. The other eight camps are all lightly armed infantry. In recent years, the several iron mountains in Hedong have been forging weapons and arrows in large quantities to arm the large number of military households obtained from the military farm system, but they have not had time to manufacture iron armor.
The Yangqu Camp sent by Guo Yu was armed with the private property of the Yangqu Guo family, and was even more luxurious than his own White Horse Camp! The 1,500 infantrymen were all heavy armored soldiers, and the 1,000 cavalry were mixed in the ratio of 500 heavy cavalry and 500 light cavalry.
The five generals and twenty-five garrison commanders of this army are basically all Guo Huai's blood relatives, who have been well-versed in poetry and books and practiced martial arts diligently since childhood. These sons of noble families and their personal soldiers and guards are even armed with magical equipment on a large scale and in large quantities, and wear all the rare items accumulated by the Guo family for hundreds of years.
Not only that, the number of Confucian scholars accompanying the army in Yangqu Camp is also explosive. They are all illegitimate sons or disciples and former officials of the Guo family. The Confucian strike force is fully utilized. Once they join the army, their combat effectiveness is directly ranked in the top two in Liuzhuang's battle sequence. Their comprehensive combat effectiveness may be second only to Liuzhuang's lord's personal soldiers.
Not only that, Guo Wei announced publicly that Guo Huai was his eldest daughter, who was good at planning and had made great contributions in battle. She was the second-generation heir recognized by the Guo family. When he was no longer able to do so, the head of the Yangqu Guo family would be Guo Huai, Liu Zhuang's wife.
Seeing that the Guo family, one of the three major families in Bingzhou, immediately expressed its position and the whole family was tightly tied to Liu Zhuang and would advance and retreat together, the Wang family of Jinyang and the Wang family of Qixian also fell into deep thought.
They are not Gao Huan, and they would not do such a shameful thing as letting their daughter become Liu Zhuang's concubine. Gao Huan did win a lot of practical benefits and resources by doing this, but she almost lost the face of her Gao family for eighteen generations!
Therefore, the two Wang families changed their approach. Each family sent out a group of soldiers, also 2,500 elite soldiers, known as the Zhaoyu Camp, and gave them to the young couple Guo Pei and Wang Yan to command jointly.
Guo Pei is Guo Huai's biological brother, and Wang Yan is the second generation leader of the two Wang families. In this way, the two Wang families strengthen the strong ties between themselves and the Yangqu Guo family, and thus strengthen the relationship between themselves and Liuzhuang.
Not only that, the two Wang families also took out 10,000 strings of cash as an investment and gave it directly to Liu Zhuang: My Lord, this year our Wang family has paid for you to buy the title of Taiyuan prefect. As for the remaining 3,000 strings of cash, you can either sell horses or forge weapons. Our Wang family will follow you!
The three aristocratic families in Hedong were also very nervous at this moment, but they had no marriage relationship with Liu Zhuang, and were even more unwilling to let their daughters become concubines.
But the problem is that Liu Zhuang was just a temporary official to them. After a few years of hard work here, he might be promoted to the central government or transferred to another place. There is no need to worry about him. Just let him stay here and be arrogant for a few years. You are just a temporary governor, and we are the iron-clad masters. If you get out today, the military field system will be dismantled tomorrow.
And now, seeing that Luoyang is in such chaos and the governor has been released, the entire empire is in danger of disintegrating and returning to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Liu Zhuang may become the king here for life, and these Hedong families must also consider their own future.
In the end, all the noble families in Hedong united together to show their loyalty. They selected 5,000 strong men from the 90,000 households and more than 450,000 people of each family. Nearly 1% of the population became professional soldiers who did not have to undertake production or farming.
These two battalions, with 5,000 soldiers, were just like the aristocratic troops of the Yangqu Guo family. They were extremely luxuriously equipped, had large amounts of armor, and were equipped with Confucian scholars and magic troops.
Sima of various levels, Qujun Hou, and Tunzhang were all descendants of aristocratic families in Hedong, big and small. They were all children of aristocratic families who were well-read and diligent in learning martial arts since childhood. The two highest leaders were Wei Fu, the second generation of Anyi Wei family, and Pei Xing, the second generation of Wenxi Pei family.
Finally, the aristocratic alliances in Hedong directly packed up the elite soldiers of the two camps and sent them to Liu Zhuang, allowing Liu Zhuang to have command and control over the two camps, and gave him huge amounts of food and fodder. In this way, they expressed their determination to join Liu Zhuang's forces.
Not only that, this is also a sign of weakness - we have sent all the sons and juniors of our entire family to you as officers. Now our children are either your clerks or in your army. The relationship between the two sides is extremely close, and this can be regarded as a disguised form of hostages.
With the full investment and joining of several families, Liuzhuang's power ushered in a new round of expansion.
Now, the professional heavy armored soldiers who do not engage in production have their own guard battalion, Guo Huai's Yangqu battalion, Guo Pei's Zhaoyu battalion, the Hedong family's Wangwu battalion, and the Zhongtiao battalion, a total of five battalions. Not only are all the soldiers heavily armored, but there is even a terrifying Confucian scholar unit, all of whom are children of aristocratic families.
And if the half-farming and half-soldiers military households were mobilized to the maximum, they could mobilize a huge force of ten battalions. His current Han army had fifteen battalions, with 2,500 soldiers in each battalion, for a total of 37,500 soldiers.
Not only that, the Xianbei army has tens of thousands of households, and the maximum mobilization can directly mobilize 10,000 horses and soldiers, and slaughter 14,000 Xiongnu households. The maximum mobilization can also mobilize 14,000 orc boys. If the maximum mobilization is carried out, the total number of soldiers who can join the battlefield at the same time has reached 61,500.
With such military force and influence, Liu Zhuang became one of the most powerful princes in the chaotic times when the Han Dynasty had just collapsed.
Chapter 203: The Yuan Sisters
Henan Yin——Luoyang
While Liu Zhuang was working to integrate the Hedong-Bingzhou sphere of influence, the party and government affairs of the court in Luoyang also erupted.
The previous court situation was that Emperor Ling of Han supported a large number of eunuchs to fight against the aristocratic families.
Now that Emperor Ling of Han is dead, all these eunuchs have lost their backing and their future. They are at a loss and in chaos. If it weren't for the military power given to them by Emperor Ling of Han and the political power in their hands, I'm afraid the eunuchs would have scattered like monkeys when the tree falls.
In the eyes of the aristocratic families, Emperor Ling of Han supported these eunuchs to bully us for so long. Now that the emperor is dead, it is time to take revenge and redress the injustice! Take back all the rights that the eunuchs have occupied from us!!!
Logically speaking, after the emperor's death, these eunuchs who lost their backing would be doomed to die. However, there were some slight differences in this succession of the throne. In addition to the aristocratic families and eunuchs, there was a third force - the external relatives.
The foreign relatives at this time were General He Jin, who was born a butcher, and his sister Empress He. General He Jin was in charge of the five most powerful battalions of the Northern Army in the entire Han Dynasty, as well as two extremely special imperial guards, the Yulin and Huben, a total of seven battalions of troops, and his sister Empress He was in charge of the harem and had tremendous power.
The only one who could rival him was the eunuch Jian Shuo, who directly controlled the Eight Camps of the Western Garden established by Emperor Ling of Han. This second equally powerful imperial guard unit was able to compete with General He Jin.
In the eyes of the He brothers and sisters, the crown prince should of course support Empress Dowager He’s own son, Liu Bian, the general’s nephew.
However, Jian Shuo secretly received a secret order from Emperor Ling of Han and supported Liu Xie.
The eunuchs and relatives with the smallest power all had military power, while the most powerful aristocratic families had no troops. Emperor Ling of Han's checks and balances prevented the Han Dynasty from collapsing immediately after his death, but it only managed to survive for a while.
Whether it is He Jin, who was born into a butcher's family, or Jian Shuo, the eunuch who was the emperor's servant, they were too naive and shallow in the eyes of the super aristocratic families that had lasted for hundreds of years.
After all, all the children of aristocratic families have studied poetry and martial arts diligently since childhood. Although there are indeed some individuals who are dull or love to play and hate studying, on the whole, the children of aristocratic families are the most intelligent people in the Han Dynasty. Their martial arts are second only to the Han border troops in the three states of You, Bing and Liang, who fight on the edge of swords and guns every day.
After all, when other children were seven or eight years old and had to help their parents with farm work every day, their parents could use massive resources and connections to hire the best scholars of the time, the most complete book knowledge, and the strongest educational methods to train their children into elites.
These aristocratic families located in the capital city of Luoyang are the most aristocratic families among the aristocratic families, and the elites among the elites.
Without the support of Emperor Ling of Han, a general who was born a butcher? A Jian Shuo who was born a second brother? You two are nothing in the eyes of us super families in Luoyang. I was smarter than them when I was six years old.
Therefore, on the first day of Emperor Ling's death, Jian Shuo, under the instigation of some noble families who had surrendered to the eunuchs, took direct action to assassinate He Jin - yes, what these noble families who surrendered to me said made sense. Wasn't it because Liu Bian was able to succeed to the throne because his uncle was the great general He Jin, who controlled the terrifying Yu Lin, Huben, and the five battalions of the Northern Army who were like killing gods? If you just kill He Jin, how can Liu Bian succeed to the throne?
But at the same time, some aristocratic families revealed Jian Shuo's assassination plan to He Jin, allowing the general to narrowly escape Jian Shuo's assassination. The aristocratic families only took two steps to directly turn the eunuchs and relatives of the emperor into sworn enemies. At the same time, some second-generation aristocratic families headed by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao also poured into General He Jin's court to help him with advice.
-------------------------------------
Luoyang-Yuan Mansion.
As the patriarch of the Runan Yuan family and the leader of the world's aristocratic families, Taifu Yuan Wei sat upright in the upper seat, overlooking the two younger generations of the Yuan family below the stage. He was tall and sturdy, with broad and powerful shoulders, as if he could carry the weight of the entire empire. An extremely luxurious and expensive black silk robe demonstrated his noble status as Taifu, who was in charge of the Shangshu affairs together with General He Jin.
To put it simply, before the emperor ascended the throne, or even before he came of age to rule the country, all imperial edicts from the Han central government had to be nodded and stamped by both He Jin and Yuan Wei at the same time to be legitimate.
Yuan Wei's eyebrows were as sharp as swords, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, as if he could see into people's hearts. The downturned corners of his mouth made his old face full of wrinkles look majestic and solemn, but also eerie and terrifying. The candlelight by the table cast a dead shadow on his face.
"Benchu, Gonglu, how is the task I entrusted you to do going?"
Yuan Wei's old but charming voice rang out in this hidden room.
"Uncle! I have gained the trust of the butcher He Jin! He appointed me as the Lieutenant General of the Tiger Guards. The 2,500 Tiger Guards in Luoyang City are now completely under my control!"
Yuan Shu raised her delicate chin with pride, and boasted about her achievements to her uncle arrogantly. She was wearing a basin-collar armor exclusive to the Tiger Guards, but she didn't look heroic or majestic at all.
Because Yuan Shu's figure is so petite and cute. He is less than meters tall, a complete loli figure. In addition, his little face is as delicate and beautiful as a porcelain doll. Even if he is standing there wearing the special basin-collar armor, he is as cute as a figure. He does not look like the murderous Tiger Guards at all.
The childish face with a little baby fat, set off by the long, gorgeous hair that looked as noble as gold, did not seem intimidating at all. When she smiled, her beautiful red lips revealed two rows of extremely sharp and delicate shark teeth.
It's not that Yuan Shu is young, but her talent in dragon blood is rather special. It's the necromancy system that Confucian scholars are most unfamiliar with and least proficient in. From the moment she awakened her dragon blood, the surging undead dragon blood in her body directly locked her growth, causing her body development to stop forever on the day she awakened the dragon blood.
Yuan Wei nodded and looked at the woman next to Yuan Shu.
She also had extremely beautiful, gorgeous long golden hair. Like Yuan Shu, she inherited certain characteristics from her father. Each strand of thin and tender hair looked like bright gold that had been hammered into a silk thread. Under the candlelight, it emitted a brilliant light. Thousands of golden threads intertwined together, like a golden waterfall, hanging down from Yuan Shao's noble and elegant face to his ankles.
As the breeze blew, Benchu's long, elegant golden hair began to dance in the air, like a sacred and magnificent golden ocean, raising waves of splendid golden color in the air. The flickering candlelight also danced on the golden hair, making thousands of golden halos shine brightly on her soft golden hair, emitting beautiful and luxurious halos.
Under the long golden hair, Yuan Shao's noble and confident face is 70% similar to Yuan Shu, but much more mature and stable. He has long lost the immaturity and arrogance of his childhood, leaving only the calmness and dignity after being washed away, as well as the confidence and pride of a superior.
