Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 377 Understanding the intention
Xie Daoyun looked at Huan Xi resentfully. Her whole body felt hot from his touch, but he became a deserter at the critical moment.

Huan Xi, who had already stepped out of the bathtub, smiled and said while putting on his clothes:

"When you give birth to the child and take care of yourself, I will take care of you."

Although it is not forbidden to have sex during pregnancy, only the first three months and the last three months of pregnancy are prohibited from having sex, but Huan Xi is not the only woman Xie Daoyun, so she does not have to try this kind of thing.

After much thought, she decided to let her raise the baby with peace of mind to avoid any accidents.

Xie Daoyun was indignant about this:
"Don't tease me again!"

Huan Xi left with a haha, and went straight to Zhang Yuer's residence to enjoy the service of Liu Meiren, Guo Jiang, and Zhang Yuer, their ancestors and grandchildren.

After having fun, Liu Meiren and Guo Jiang put on their clothes and went back to their dormitory, leaving only Huan Xi and the sixteen-year-old girl there.

Zhang Yuer suddenly said:
"Huan Lang, Yao Ling is fourteen years old now. Although he can't go back to Liangzhou, we should find something to do for him. I think I can help Huan Lang. Don't really let him become a useless person."

When the Zhang siblings were brought to Chang'an by Huan Xi, Zhang Yu'er just wanted her two younger brothers to marry, have children, and live a peaceful life.

He really likes Zhang Yuer's feet.

"Huan Lang, you are so kind!"

Zhang Yu'er is full of joy. She doesn't care about her brother's position. As long as Huan Xi is willing to use Zhang Yaoling, it is great news for Zhang Yu'er.

The power has been firmly controlled by Zhao Ju and Niu Yi. Even if the Zhang family is sent back to Liangzhou, it will be difficult to make waves.

Smooth, white, with even lengths of horns and toes, no protruding bones, scars or veins, smooth, tender and elastic.

Huan Xi nodded. To this day, even if Zhang Tianxi, Zhang Yaoling, and Zhang Xuanliang returned to Liangzhou, they would not be able to pose a threat to Huan Xi's rule in Hexi.

Zhang Yuer called out foolishly.

After tidying up for a while, Zhang Yuer opened the door and ordered to the maid outside the door:

However, Zhang Yu'er had already spoken, and Huan Xi couldn't keep Zhang Yaoling idle.

The soles of the feet are white and rosy, and the arches are high, which is really admirable.

The next morning, before dawn, Huan Xi was sleeping soundly, and Zhang Yu'er had climbed up quietly, fearing to wake him up.

After a long while, until she was out of breath, she reluctantly moved her lips away.

But after spending such a long time with Huan Xi, they also understood that the person next to them had no ill intentions toward them, so they had this extravagant hope.

Even though Huan Xi had just experienced a fierce battle with one against three, under Zhang Yu'er's temptation, he regained his energy and threw her on the couch.

With that said, Zhang Yu'er took her foot out of Huan Xi's hand, leaned forward, and kissed Huan Xi's lips boldly and proactively.

Huan Xi played with Zhang Yuer's feet and said absently.

After all, all the Xianbei people in Hexi Province had surrendered to him, and almost all the die-hards loyal to the Zhang family among the old and young people from the former Liang Dynasty had been eradicated in the counter-rebellion.

Of course, there are no absolutes in this world. No matter how confident Huan Xi is, he cannot let them escape his control.

"Huan Lang."

"Ask Yao Ling to go find Chi Qian tomorrow. From now on, he will stay in Zuolang Guard waiting for orders."

"Tell Duke Xiping that from today onwards, I will be on duty at Zuolangwei. From now on, I need to be cautious and not be as lazy as at home."

The maid nodded repeatedly. When Zhang Yu'er returned to her inner bed, Huan Xi had already woken up.

In fact, he asked Zhang Yaoling to go to Zuolangwei, which also implied the idea of ​​​​investigating this brother-in-law. After all, there are many eldest sons of various tribes in Langweili, including some sons of chiefs of the Xianbei tribe in Hexi.

If Zhang Yaoling had not given up the idea of ​​restoring the country, he would have made some small moves secretly. Of course, these small moves could not have been hidden from the eyes of General Zuolang Shen Chiqian.

After Huan Xi washed up under Zhang Yu'er's attendance, he was having his meal when suddenly a close attendant came to inform him.

After questioning, I found out that it was Liu Xiwuqi and Liu Weichen who were seeking an audience outside the palace.

Huan Xi couldn't help but feel tight in his heart. He knew that it was probably related to Liu Wuhuan.

Liu Wuhuan has been having health problems since last year. Huan Xi also sent medical officers all the way to Hetao to diagnose and treat him, but none of them could do anything about Liu Wuhuan's condition.

From that time on, Huan Xi knew that this day would come sooner or later.

Sure enough, Liu Xiwuqi and Liu Weichen came wearing Xiao's clothes. As soon as they entered the door, they looked like Huan Xi wailing in mourning.

"Gong Liang, my father unfortunately passed away due to illness. Please allow us brothers to go back to attend the funeral!"

How could Huan Xi stop such a thing? He comforted the two of them and asked again:
"Did King Zuoxian have any last words before his death?"

Huan Xi asked, of course, about the heir.

Liu Wuhuan only had two of his sons as adults, and Huan Xi had no obvious likes or dislikes about which of their brothers should inherit the tribe.

If Liu Wuhuan appointed a person before his death, Huan Xi would naturally act in accordance with his will.

Liu Xiwuqi said with tears:
"My father hopes that Wei Chen can return to Hetao and take over the leadership of the tribe."

Huan Xi looked at Liu Weichen again. Although this man was cunning, he did not dare to deceive Huan Xi, so he could only nod his head in agreement with his brother.

Youdao is a son who succeeds after the death of his father. Now that Liu Wuhuan and Liu Kuantou have been separated for many years, it is impossible for Huan Xi to allow Liu Kuantou to play some sibling trick and let him annex his brother's tribe.

"In this case, I will immediately report to the court that Xiwuqi will be the Xiongnu Zuoxian King. Don't worry, you brothers. With me watching, no one can take away this family fortune."

Liu Xiwuqi is grateful for his kindness. Although he is the eldest son and has his father's will, if Huanxi does not agree, he will not be able to sit on the throne of King Zuoxian.

In fact, compared to Liu Weichen, who was known for his cunning in later generations, Huan Xi also preferred Liu Xiwuqi.

As a puppet, you don't need to be very capable, just be obedient, just like brothers Liu Wuhuan and Liu Yan.

Just when Huan Xi thought the matter was over, Liu Xiwuqi said again:

"Reporting to Duke Liang, I have been in Chang'an for a long time and have been bathed in the royal state. I deeply feel that the custom of step-marriage is against human ethics. In order to avoid gossip, please send my deceased father's wife and concubines to Guanzhong to rest in peace."

When Huan Xi heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

It was clear that someone was giving Liu Xiwuqi advice behind his back, trying to please him.

Now Liu Xiwuqi requested that Liu Wuhuan's wives and concubines be placed in Chang'an. Isn't this equivalent to sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth?

Of course, when thinking of the charming Princess Zuo Xian, Huan Xi couldn't help but agree:
"I have always advocated allowing freedom of customs of all ethnic groups outside the Great Wall and never forcing them. Now that you have plans to change the customs, I will not stop them."

Liu Xiwuqi thanked him again and again.

After their brothers left, Huan Xi called Shen Chiqian to investigate secretly.

The truth soon came to light. It turned out that Murong Ying had sent a message to Liu Xiwuqi early.
