Chapter 233

"Mi'er, this time I might have to wrong you by making you a concubine."

Hearing Wu Mi's question, Wu Yi lowered his head slightly.

Although the Wu family has huge influence on this one-third of an acre of land in Yizhou.

But if you look at the entire Guanxi region.

Especially compared to those nobles in Chang'an, it is really not up to standard.

Gu Yi's legal wife is Dong Zhuo's own granddaughter, Dong Bai.

No matter how precious Wu Mi is, she cannot be more precious than Dong Bai, right?

Therefore.

If Wu Mi is married to Gu Yi, she can only be a concubine.

This is something that cannot be changed.

In history, after Liu Bei entered Yizhou.

Because his original two wives, Lady Gan and Lady Mi, had both passed away successively.

Plus the need to win over the Dongzhou faction led by Wu Yi.

Liu Bei decided to promote Wu Mi as his legal wife.

And now.

Gu Yi's situation is completely different from Liu Bei's.

If Wu Mi still wants to be the legal wife, it is naturally wishful thinking.

"Brother, you said so much."

"Are you intending to marry Mi'er to...?"

Wu Mi is very concerned about who her brother Wu Yi intends to marry her to.

After all, if she is married to an old man whose half-body is about to enter the soil, wouldn't that be equivalent to becoming a widow again?

"Gu Linzhi."

Wu Yi replied.

Subsequently, he introduced Gu Yi's basic situation to Wu Mi.

After listening, Wu Mi's eyes lit up, and she said:

"Brother, that is to say, this Gu Linzhi is only in his early twenties, and he has already reached a position of real power in the Dong Zhuo army?"

"Even, he is highly likely to become Dong Zhuo's successor in the future?"

The resistance in Wu Mi's heart toward this marriage had greatly decreased.

Given Gu Yi's age, I believe it is impossible for him to let her live as a widow.

Although she is a concubine, Gu Yi only has a few concubines at home at this time.

Relying on Wu Mi's beauty and figure.

Plus the influence of her maiden family.

Even as a concubine, she would only be a favored concubine, not the kind who would be left alone in an empty room.

"Yes, Mi'er."

"If Gu Yi were a person about to enter the coffin, your brother would never marry you to him."

"It is precisely because he is in his prime that marrying you to him is a multi-win situation for you and for our Wu family."

Wu Yi explained with a smile.

Just as he wanted to continue saying something, several guards suddenly walked in outside the courtyard.

"General, the lord is looking for you to discuss matters."

Several guards said.

"Okay, I'll go over right away."

Wu Yi knew that Liu Zhang looking for him at this time was highly likely because of the war situation on the frontline.

As one of the two entrusted ministers, Wu Yi's prestige in the military naturally goes without saying.

And after arriving at the Governor's Prefecture.

It was indeed the same as Wu Yi guessed.

Liu Zhang urgently pulled him to his side and recounted the defeat of Lei Tong and the loss of contact with Zhang Ren.

"My lord, this Jiameng Pass can no longer be captured."

"It is better to focus on guarding Bai Shui Pass."

Wu Yi said.

Before the words fell, Liu Zhang said impatiently:

"Ziyuan, the defending generals of Bai Shui Pass, Yang Huai and Gao Pei, are loyal to my father."

"But to me, I really don't know if they are worth entrusting."

"If Bai Shui Pass is handed over to these two, what if there is a mistake? How can I explain it to the subjects of the Shu region?"

When it came to this, Wu Yi instantly understood the meaning in Liu Zhang's words.

To put it bluntly, he just doesn't trust Yang Huai and Gao Pei!

However, why would Liu Zhang suddenly not trust these two?

Wu Yi cast his gaze toward Zhang Song on the side.

He saw the latter wink at him slightly.

In an instant.

Wu Yi and Zhang Song reached an exchange of opinions.

He immediately clasped his fists to Liu Zhang and said:

"My lord, this general is untalented, but I claim to have some talent in leading troops."
