Farmer of Shu Han

Hanzhong, Nanxiang.

A special area of ​​the medical school is full of heavily armed soldiers, and everyone who enters and exits must be strictly screened.

The car of the Empress Dowager Han had already parked there yesterday.

In the room that had been meticulously cleaned, the Dahan emperor looked anxious, a little restless, sometimes stood up and took a few steps.

There is also a door leading to the inner room in the room that is closed tightly.

Every time the little fat man stood up, he couldn't help looking there.

The queen was more stable, sitting on the soft couch with a calm expression, stroking her stomach from time to time, as if to remind herself to maintain emotional stability.

Zhao Yun's eldest son, Zhao Tong, sat with Zhao Mashi on another long couch in the room.

Zhao Tong was full of worry, but in front of the empress and elders, he had to sit there in a well-behaved manner.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Mashi, whose face was slightly sad, but also calm.

None of the four opened their mouths, and the servants around them dared not even vent their breath, and the room was full of depression.

Just when the little fat man couldn't bear to wait, the door of the inner room finally opened, and Fan A and Li Dangzhi walked out.

Seeing the two people coming out, Zhang Xingcai stood up.

"How is the old general?"

"Return to Your Majesty, General Wei has woken up."

"Awoke? That's great!" Adou was overjoyed, "Then why did the old general fall into a coma this time? Has the cause been found out?"

Both Fan A and Li Dangzhi hesitated, "The general's body is actually not a serious problem..."

"No big problem? How is it possible!" Hearing this, Adou lost his composure and raised his voice, "Then why is the old general unconscious?"

Zhang Xingcai opened his mouth to appease the slightly impatient emperor: "Your Majesty, let the two doctors finish talking first."

Then she motioned to the two of them again, "Go ahead."

"No. Back to Your Majesty and Empress, the old general is healthy, but the reason why he is unconscious is because of his advanced age. Old age means lack of vitality, and his viscera are stiff and old, and his vitality is no longer there."

Liu, ignorant and incompetent, Zen couldn't bear to hear: "Explain more clearly."

"The old general's lifespan is exhausted."

Liu Chan: ...

After being silent for a while, the little fat man asked in a somewhat shy voice:

"Is there no other way? Is there no other way?"

Both Fan Ah and Li Dangzhi were silent.

Zhao Mashi next to him opened his mouth to help the two of them:

"Your Majesty, the Husband Master often said that he has been fighting for his fate all these years. If he lives an extra day, he will earn another day. The Husband Master knows his destiny and is already satisfied. Why do you need to make things difficult for these two doctors?"

Over the years, my family Alang has been seriously ill several times. If it weren't for the medical school, my family Alang would have passed away a few years ago.

A Dou's mood is obviously a little disturbed:

"I understand, I understand everything! It's just that I have been sheltered by the old general since I was a child, and I always think that the old general can... live a few more years, even a year or two..."

The Son of Heaven is a man of great affection, which is a good thing for his courtiers.

It's just that the emperor who emphasizes emotions may not be a good emperor in many cases.

On the contrary, the queen was still the only one present who could keep calm:

"Then when is it convenient for us to go in and see the old general? Is there anything we need to pay attention to when we go in?"

Fan Ah was a little hesitant, he hesitated to speak:

"Go back to the queen, just keep quiet, there is nothing else, after all, General Wei..."

Zhang Xingcai nodded in understanding: "Thank you for your hard work."

Then he ordered the left and right, "Come here, take the two doctors down to rest."

Fan A and Li Dangzhi can't leave yet, they have to live next door, and come to check on Zhao Yun's situation at any time.

Even everyone present knew that Zhao Yun's time was probably numbered.

With this heavy heart in mind, the four of them stepped into the inner room.

Lying on the couch, Zhao Yun seemed to want to move when he saw someone coming in, but in the end he could only move his lips and say something vaguely.

"Old general, do you have something to say?"

A Dou bent down and lowered his head, leaned closer and asked softly.

Zhao Yun muttered again.

A Dou still didn't hear clearly, he was a little uneasy, and then looked at the three people behind him in confusion.

Zhao Ma suggested in a low voice:

"Your Majesty, why don't you let me come?"

A Dou quickly stood up and made way for him.

Only then did Zhao Mashi approach Zhao Yun: "Ah Lang, what are you talking about?"

Zhao Yun seemed impatient, but he had to repeat the vague words again.

Zhao Mashi nodded and translated to the empress:

"A Lang wants to know, has the prime minister captured Chang'an?"

Adou quickly said:

"The thieves in Guanzhong have fled and want to leave Guanzhong. The Prime Minister is leading the army to go east. I believe Chang'an will have good news soon."

Hearing this, Zhao Yun's muddy eyes seemed to be shining with some kind of light, and he tried hard to raise his head.

This time, his voice became clearer:

"Yun, I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for the news of returning to the old capital..."

Seeing that Zhao Yun's spirit started to improve after hearing the news, Ah Dou couldn't help being overjoyed.

On the contrary, the queen who was standing next to him, seeing Zhao Yun like this, had a slightly hazy look in his eyes.

It is not a good thing for a seriously ill person to suddenly improve in spirit.

A Dou, who didn't notice the queen's expression at all, comforted him:

"No, no, I don't think it will be a few days, the news of the prime minister's recovery of Chang'an will come soon, the old general can just wait with peace of mind."

Hearing A Dou's words, Zhao Yun actually burst out laughing from the throat.

He looked at A Dou, there was kindness in his eyes, but more, it was nostalgia, as if he remembered the past.

"It's a pity that I can't accompany the prime minister to regain Chang'an, a pity..."

Zhao Yun muttered to himself, stretched out his hand, trying to grab something, but in the end it slid down slowly and feebly halfway.

Zhao Mashi held Zhao Yun's hand tightly, and finally burst into tears.

Zhao Tong knelt down in front of the couch with a "plop".

The queen turned her head away and wiped her tears quietly.

A Dou stared blankly at Zhao Yun's eyes that were still wide open, his face was a little confused and unbelievable.

"Old General..."

The Queen pulled Adou lightly, pulling Adou back to reality, she turned her head slightly to signal the two to go out, leaving space for Zhao Mashi and Zhao Tong.

A Dou followed the queen out dumbly, and after a long time, his dull eyeballs rolled:

"Queen, the old general..."

The queen sighed:

"My lord, my condolences."

A Dou sat down on the couch outside in a daze, and remained silent for a long time.

Thinking of Zhao Yun's eyes that had been refusing to close, A Dou closed them and murmured:

"Old general, he really doesn't want to rest in peace!"

Just when the atmosphere in the house was about to become overwhelming, there was a sudden commotion outside.

A little yellow door trots in:

"Your Majesty, Little General Zhao is back."

A Dou didn't react for a while: "Who?"

But the queen reacted faster: "It is Zhao Erlang who is back, let him come in quickly!"

Zhao Guang, who was covered in mud and sweat all the way, rushed in from Hedong all the way to Hanzhong. No one could see clearly, and he shouted: "My lord!"

The Empress and Empress: ...

Knees slightly bent, Zhao Sanqian was about to kneel down, halfway he finally saw the opposite side clearly, kept the posture for three breaths, and then quickly retracted his legs:

"The last general pays homage to His Majesty, Empress, may Your Majesty be forever..."

Before the congratulatory speech was finished, A Dou interrupted him faintly:

"Get up quickly, in this world, how can there be any eternal life?"

"The old general is inside, go in quickly."

The queen took the words and said to Zhao Guang.

Zhao Guang saluted again: "Thank you Your Majesty, Empress, I'm sorry."

As he said that, he rushed into the room impatiently: "My lord!"

A Dou and the queen looked at each other and sighed together.

Sure enough, there was a louder cry from inside: "My lord?"

Zhao Mashi, who had just stopped crying, was again brought to tears by Zhao Guang:

"Erlang, why can't you be two steps faster, your lord was still asking about the war in Guanzhong just now, and he refuses to rest in peace!"

Zhao Guang rushed to Zhao Yun's couch and cried loudly:

"My lord, I was wrong, I should have been faster!"

"When I came back, the prime minister had already arrived at the city of Chang'an, and the thieves in Guanzhong were driven away. Most of them ran from Tongguan, and some returned to Jingzhou from Wuguan."

As if reporting to his own adults, Zhao Guang rambled on and wiped his face.

The snot and tears mixed together, the dust on his face was dusted and black, and the mud and dirt all over his body were added.

Just like a refugee who begged all the way from Guanzhong to Hanzhong.

"In this battle, our big man not only regained Guanzhong, but even Bingzhou Hedong was defeated by my brother..."

Zhao Tong, who was bowing his head and weeping, raised his head subconsciously when he heard his brother calling "brother".

Zhao Guang seemed to be crying too urgently, "cough, cough, cough" several times, and then he spoke again after a while:

"Hedong and other places in Bingzhou have also been stabilized by General Zhengxi..."

Zhao Yun naturally didn't respond, but Zhao Mashi cried even harder.

She slapped Zhao Guang hard:

"If you had come back earlier and let your lord hear the news, why would he not rest in peace!"

Zhao Mashi's hands were strong, and Zhao Erlang coughed a few more times when he slapped him.

Seeing his lord's eyes opened, he held back his grief, stretched out his hand, and stroked his lord's eyes.

I don't know if I really heard Zhao Guang's words, my wish was fulfilled, Zhao Yun's eyes, which were always open, closed after Zhao Guang's hands left.

Zhao Mashi: ...

Zhao Yun has already passed the seventy-year-old age, and after three or four years of living, he will reach the age of the Zhang Dynasty.

In the era of the Three Kingdoms War, it was extremely rare for a veteran who had fought for decades to die at this age.

In addition, the Zhao family had long been mentally prepared for this, so after the family wept bitterly, they arranged Zhao Yun's funeral as a happy funeral.

The funeral of the big man, the spiritual symbol of the army, was of a very high standard. Not only did the emperor personally worship, but the emperor also personally escorted and transported the coffin to Nanzheng for burial in the Longxing place of the Han Dynasty.

On the day Zhao Yun was buried, the military report sent from Guanzhong finally arrived in Hanzhong:

The prime minister and Feng Junhou led the army into Chang'an.

The military newspaper was burned by Adou in front of Zhao Yun's grave, shouting:

"Old general, the prime minister is still in the old capital!"

It was a great happy event, but when it was announced at General Wei's funeral, under the joy and sorrow, all the officials of the court and central government who came to the funeral did not know whether to smile or cry.

At the time when the monarchs and ministers of the Han Dynasty were filled with grief and joy, the whole country of Wei State was shrouded in a gloomy cloud.

After losing the first battle in Guanzhong, the emperor marched eastward, and went to Da Sima—oh, now it’s Taifu—to Taifu led the army to withdraw from Guanzhong.

Then the emperor was critically ill and hurriedly established the prince.

Until now - the emperor died.

After all, Cao Rui still failed to survive the winter of the 14th year of Jianxing, as the fake goddess said.

According to Cao Rui's edict, Prince Cao Fang ascended the throne as emperor, and General Cao Shuang and Grand Tutor Sima Yi jointly assisted the government.

It was less than a month since Empress Yu became empress from noble concubine, and she was honored as empress dowager again.

The death of the (false) emperor of Wei State is impossible to hide from the world.

Compared with the Han and Wei countries that are currently strictly blocking the border, Wu got the news one step earlier than Han.

The Lord of Wu, Sun Quan, received the news that the elaborator had desperately sent it back, and regretted it so much that his thigh was almost snapped off:

"If I knew this earlier, why didn't I stay in Hefei for a while longer?"

Recalling that everyone from the top general Lu Xun down to persuade him to retreat, Sun Quan gritted his teeth again:

"The ministers misunderstood me!"

As I said earlier, nine times out of ten the thief was bluffing, but the generals are timid!

Sun Quan sighed and regretted.

Just at this time, Lv Yi from the school affairs office personally sent another secret report:

"Your Majesty, news came from Liaodong that Gongsun Yuan responded to our great Wu and sent troops to rebel against the Wei rebels. He fought with Wang Xiong (the governor of Youzhou of Wei State) and others in the Liao Tunnel."

"According to Gongsun Yuan, it rained heavily for more than ten days and the Liaohe River swelled so much that both sides had to retreat. Now Gongsun Yuan has established himself as King of Yan, changed his year name to Shaohan, and appointed hundreds of civil and military officials."

"I also sent envoys to grant the Xianbei Shanyu seal in Liaodong, and all the people on the frontier were appointed officials and titles. They wanted to lure Xianbei and other Hu people as wings, and waited for an opportunity to invade the northern border of the Wei thieves."

"Today, Gongsun Yuan has sent an envoy, and he is about to present His Majesty with the king's seal to rectify his name."

When Sun Quan heard this, he felt even more regretful:

"At that time, the Wei thieves were oppressed by the Shu people in the west, and invaded by the Liaodong in the north. It was the right time for me to attack Hefei from the south! But the ministers and generals misled me!"

He only remembered his subordinates persuading him to retreat, but he forgot how embarrassed he was when he retreated.

Seeing that His Majesty was so remorseful that he even wanted to gnash his teeth, Lu Yi's heart couldn't help but move.

The emperor returned to Hefei again without success, so Lu Yi naturally knew about it a long time ago.

Such things, for a lucky person like Lv Yi, are taboo topics, and if they can not be mentioned, they will not be mentioned.

But seeing His Majesty's appearance at this time gave him a chance:

"Your Majesty, if you are too angry, you should take care of yourself."

"How can I not be angry? The great opportunity has been let go for nothing. I heard that Sima Yi has led the army out of Guanzhong. The people of Shu may have already won it!"

"As for Da Wu, he was supposed to take the opportunity to capture Hefei, but he was missed in vain. I really hate him!"

Lu Yi's eyes flashed, and he said cautiously:

"I heard that His Majesty is the main force to attack Hefei in this battle, but the generals in the army are urging His Majesty to retreat. Therefore, I think that this is not your Majesty's fault, but the generals' fault. Why should Your Majesty blame yourself?"

Sun Quan had a gloomy face and remained silent.

When Lu Yi saw Sun Quan's expression, he immediately understood that he was talking about His Majesty's heart.

After confirming this point, Lu Yi immediately said:

"As far as I know, Zhuge Ke is the vanguard in this battle, and the top general personally protects the rear."

"Zhuge Ke has rarely fought in battle, and lacks experience. He doesn't know the changes in front of the battle, so it's okay to be deceived by thieves."

"Think about the top general, but he is one of the few who know how to fight. Even if you look at the world, there are not many people who can compare with him."

"That's why I think it's possible that the General had other ideas and didn't explain it to His Majesty? If so, why doesn't Your Majesty ask the General?"

It was fine if Lu Yi didn't say the last sentence. Sun Quan, who was only regretful at first, felt a little out of balance when he heard this sentence:

"The battle is a big event, what is there to hide and push without explaining it?"

"Even if the messenger was worried about losing the secret at that time, could he not take the initiative to explain to me after returning from the retreat and ask me to ask in person?"

Well, they all started calling themselves me.

It can be seen from this that Sun Quan was really brooding about the defeat in this battle.

The emperor can make mistakes, and he can also correct them.

But as a courtier, if you don't stand up and correct your mistakes, it's your fault.

Otherwise what should you do?

Seeing His Majesty's intention to vent his anger, Lv Yi smiled slightly, and quietly stepped back, hiding his achievements and fame.

Among the courtiers who wrote to criticize the school affairs office, the one with the most authority is none other than the general.

Lu Yi thinks that he is just protecting himself.
