On the last day of the five years of Jian'an, the wind and snow quietly stopped the night before, and the streets and alleys in Juyang City presented a festive atmosphere. The people who bought New Year's goods were picky at meat stalls. In recent years, the northern region has gradually become rich, and meat comes from the grassland, which is no longer a rare product. In the bargaining voice, they often turn back and remind the children who are taking them out together not to run around.

The figure with a big waist and a round waist walked on the long street with several guards at home, and was also supporting a woman with a big belly. Occasionally, I saw a street stall like a favorite, so I stopped to choose. Pan Feng was wearing a cloak or like a wild bear, and waved her hand: "Buy, buy, buy, buy!"

"There is no need to buy anything, you stupid guy." Xianglian straightened her waist and gave him a blank look, "...... This is chosen for her wife. It is no longer expensive, but it needs to be exquisite. If you say it, you don't understand."

Pan Feng nodded repeatedly: "Madam says whatever she says." His eyes stared at the belly that was nurturing life from time to time, and wrinkles on his smiling face were piled up.

Then the two of them walked for a while before they got on the carriage and came to Gongsun's mansion according to the hour. After the carriage slowed down and stopped, Pan Feng hurriedly got off the carriage and led Xianglian down. At this time, there were people coming and going to the gate of the mansion. The officials and local households in the city gathered for the New Year's dinner as usual. The Wuhuan, the Xiongnu and other foreign generals also came from outside the city and went in before the two.

At the door, Li Ke brought the guards outside to pick up customers. Only when he saw a very important figure in the army in the city, he squeezed out a smile on his face. When Pan Feng and his wife came over, he looked at each other lazily, stood up and greeted him.

"Hahaha... Li Ke, weren't you the one who welcomed the house in the past? Why were you sent out to come outside!" Pan Feng was about to be a father, with a more serious expression. He stretched out his arms and strode towards him. However, Li Ke, who came across from him, didn't look at him, came directly to Xianglian and stared at her belly: "How long will it take to have a wedding banquet? You are an old man in the house, and you will have to treat me first."

Xianglian glanced at her husband who was reaching out with awkwardly, covered her mouth and chuckled, and held Pan Feng with her hands, "General Li is really funny... However, if you want to have a wedding banquet, you have to wait until two months later, and it will take a full moon."

"Li Ke, the meal will start later, I will see if I won't deal with you!" Pan Feng turned around and glared at him, and then Xianglian pulled him into the mansion.

Li Ke looked at his back and shouted: "Then you can try a drunken fist first."

....

The maids and servants in the mansion were busy shuttled through the ground and the eaves. The snow on the ground and eaves were cleaned, and the window lattices and doors were also covered with festive patterns. Gongsun Zheng pulled Dongfang Yu to shuttle through the backyard. After all, they were all children's character. From time to time, they shook the snowflakes on the treetops and threw them at the other party. When they splashed under the eaves, Jian Shuo walked over quickly, and kept reminding his subordinates. After all, every year, the government officials would come in from all sides of the army in the northern part of the country. There was no mistake in every table of dishes, and they had to keep watching everything.

It was almost noon before everything could barely stop.

In the backyard, the noisy and lively voices came faintly. Gongsun Zhi sat in the room and helped Cai Yan insert his hands into Bu Yao. He smiled at his wife in the bronze mirror, then took off the cloak next to the shelf and put it on his body. Since that night, although Cai Yan's attitude towards him has not changed these days, he was still a little bit unsalty and unsightly. Only today has it improved slightly.

The winter sun was shining in from the window. Cai Yan sat in front of the bronze mirror to outline her eyebrows. When the sound of dressing came from behind her, she gently lowered her hand and said, "Husband." As she spoke, the face that was passing by was a little gentle.

Gongsun Zhi looked at her, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down and held his wife's hand, "Are you finally willing to talk to your husband?"

On the other side, the sheep brush was put down on the table. Cai Yan waved his hand and asked the shake bottle to go out. He turned around and looked at him and said softly: "I will be angry, but I won't be angry. In the past, I said that I didn't mind taking my husband's concubine, but when I saw a strange woman appearing at my home, I still care about it in my heart."

Although the couple has had children for many years, they are still in their twenties. Even though they are strong in the past, they are still unbearable when they are involved in the bottom line in their hearts.

Gongsun Zhi rubbed the back of her hand and smiled, "Look, why are you crying so hard? In fact, I never thought about taking a concubine."

Cai Yan just shook her head and her voice was choked: "I have heard what she said to her husband outside the house. A woman has suffered so much grievance and has done so many things. In fact, I am still very touched in my heart. This... I have been thinking these days that my husband is now gradually becoming a foundation, and only one descendant is like a master. The ministers outside also discuss whether I will be jealous and disagree with my husband to take a concubine. Instead of taking a woman outside, it is better to include Miss Ren in the mansion."

Gongsun Zhi held her, wiped away the tears, and patted her gently: "...... Let's talk about this later. Didn't the wife say that she came out of the palace and pretended well? Let's delay this. As for the things she did, I do feel a little touched, but it's different from liking..."

"As long as she cares about her husband, I don't care about other things, and I just need to get used to it. Besides, if there is no one or two concubines, what will others think? Only one son and one child will be born. If the people below don't say it, they will feel worried."

The more she said, the more she choked, the more serious she was. Her fingers kept wiping away tears, but after experiencing many things, she sobbed for a while, regained her rationality, and lay on her shoulder and said choked: "I am angry with myself, why are there only one son and one child... Why can't I add more children to my husband?"

"It's a responsibility to have a husband..."

After a little slowing down, Cai Yan got up from his arms and snatched the words. She held Gongsun Zhi's hand, "Since Miss Ren likes her husband, please take her over."

"Look at it later, it's pitiful that more than you like."

Gongsun Zhi touched his wife's forehead, then got up and held her, took a towel and wiped the tears on his face, "However, today is the end of the year, and I was crying. I thought my Gongsun Zhi was beating the woman with her door closed. Let's go, it's time to start a banquet, let's laugh."

The woman burst into tears by his last words, snatched the towel she had touched on her face, wiped it gently for a few times, and then followed Gongsun Zhi to the door. When the couple came to the front yard, the table started and the whole courtyard was boiling.

With the lively and the festive noise arrived, the door opened gently in a room in the side yard. Ren Hongchang, who was wearing a shabby dress, walked out. Looking at the boiling direction, the female guard with five finger marks on her face walked out and pursed her lips: "Today is the end of the New Year, they are so lively..."

Hearing the word "New Year's Eve", Ren Hongchang stood there and looked over there for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, the word "Oh" was squeezed out from his lips. The lively noise in the distance made her ears buzzing. After a while, her steps moved slightly and turned around and returned to the cold room.

Since Wang Yun's death, she has no home. She has taken her sisters to hide in the cold palace and carefully hide herself. Although she is from the palace, she only feels coldness and death. If she takes the initiative, Ren Hongchang discovered that she actually has no so-called home at all.

With a stiff body, he walked alone to the dark corner, sat down against the wall with his arms in his arms. After a moment, tears fell down and he cried silently.

………

It was the end of the year, and all the busyness in the world stopped at this moment. Jiangdong, Sun Ce stood in the attic and looked at Xuzhou. He returned home again in the hands of a man named Chen Deng. However, he was not discouraged and turned heroically, raising cups to the civil and military officials in Jiangdong.

"Next year, we will continue!"

After turning over this year, it will be a new beginning. As for the assassination in the middle of the year, it will be a thing of the past, but the investigation will continue.

In Lujiang, someone hurriedly ran through the cold wind. An arrow was nailed to his back with a whizzing sound. When blood was sprinkling on the ground, someone stopped and pressed the blade on his twitching body. The dead man murmured with a name: "…Qin…Luo Fu…”

....

In Runan, Yuzhou, there is still blood left on the white snow trails. This is just a small-scale battle.

The army returning to the city with the body was warmly treated. Liu Bei held up the figure handed to dismount. Guan Yu held the wine and walked towards the generals around him, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Zhou Cang, Guan Ping..., Sun Qian, Jian Yong and other civil servants went there.

"Set the foundation for your brother and drink to win"

"Drinking!"

....

Scattered snowflakes floated across the sky of the Central Plains. Xu Du, Cao Chun and Zhang Xiu led the searched cavalry to extend north along other prefectures and counties. In Xu Du City, Cao Cao recruited counselors to discuss the next year's affairs. When talking about the abducted Jia Xu, he finally decided to send people to the north to negotiate the redemption of the people.

A man named Wang Lang was recommended by Liu Ye and walked into everyone's sight.

Hanoi, Zhu Gongdao took off his fur hat and threw a pot of wine to the old man in the car. He stood in the car and chased him, looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky, raised his hand: "Let's drink and eat meat, let's make do with the New Year."

Jia Xu lifted the curtain with a little bruise on his face. He looked ahead. The outline of the city in the falling snow scene was vaguely visible, but it was already far away from Xudu...

Crossing the Yellow River and Yecheng in Jizhou, Yuan Shang decided to inherit his will and reorganize the Yuan family, preparing to turn over today and after the beginning of spring next year, he would make great progress. Then Qingzhou's brother stationed at the junction of Hebei and Qinghai with his troops and sent envoys, and the battle began again.

Yuan Xi, who lost his fighting spirit, stayed in the mansion and drank with "Zhen Mi" all day long, and sometimes treated the other party as his real wife. "No matter what... you are my wife after all."

"Actually, I have a name for Zhen Mi." The girl touched Yuan Xi who was sleeping on her lap, and looked at the candlelight on the table.

"..... My surname is Guo... When my parents were still there, they called me the nickname Queen..." She said with a smile, tears fell down, and slowly poured the wine in her hand to the ground, "..... This wine offering to the two elders."

...

The sky was shining and snow, and we stopped a little further north.

In the deserted side yard, someone took the wine and the food came to this side. In the cold room, the woman buried between her knees raised her head, the door creaked open, the wind blew the snowflakes outside and squeezed in, the lights swayed, and the wine and steaming food were placed on the table, illuminated by her tall figure.

Then, she sat down opposite her, "Today's New Year, I can't let you be alone."

Ren Hongchang bit his lip, looked at the other person without blinking for a moment, reached out to take the chopsticks handed over by Gongsun Zhi, and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes again, burst into tears and smiled.

In this cold world, on the last day of the old year, there are always some things to let go, drive away the cold, bring warmth to the surroundings, and turn over the old year, and the new day will come, and there is another situation to face...

The time for competition has come
