Farmer of Shu Han

In the last month of the second year of Yanxi, General Zuo Zhu Ju finally returned to Jianye before the Great Court Assembly.

After Zhu Ju returned to Jianye, he immediately asked to enter the palace to meet His Majesty.

Sun Dadi, who has been immersed in the gentleness these days, learned that Zhu Ju had traveled thousands of miles back to Jiangdong, and immediately met him.

"Chen Ju, greet Your Majesty!"

"Zi Fan please get up."

Sun Quan was in a good mood, stepped forward to help Zhu Ju himself, looked him up and down, and said with a smile:

"Has it been two years since Zifan went to Chang'an? Are you still used to living there? Is he still in good health?"

Originally, Zhu Ju, who came back on his own initiative without consulting His Majesty in advance, felt relieved when he saw Sun Quan's appearance.

At the same time, there are some touches:

"Thank you for your majesty's concern. Everything is fine, but I miss your majesty too much."

"Your Majesty's trust is high, and I was sent to Han to learn the method of riding and fighting. In the past two years, I have kept His Majesty's teachings in mind, and I dare not relax for a moment."

"I am in a hurry to come back this time. It is really urgent. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

Sun Quan laughed:

"Why does Zifan need to be like this? Although I haven't been able to see what you look like in the Han Kingdom, the correspondence between me and the Emperor of the Han Kingdom has never been interrupted."

"The Emperor of the Han Dynasty has always admired you, saying that you are both civil and military, and you are proficient in governance."

"I heard that even Feng Mingwen often mentioned you in front of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, praising you for being humble in accepting soldiers. You are indeed a hero of Jiangdong."

Zhu Ju listened to the previous words, and wanted to be humble, but he didn't expect His Majesty to mention Feng Mingwen.

Not to mention that Feng Mingwen actually had such an evaluation of himself.

Thinking of Feng Mingwen's magnanimity and selflessness to both Da Wu and himself, but he was deceiving the other party and stealing secrets.

Zhu Ju was still a little excited at first, but suddenly fell to the bottom, and at the same time lowered his head in shame.

Sensing the obvious change in Zhu Ju's mood, Sun Quan couldn't help being a little surprised:

"Zi Fan, what's the matter with you?"

Zhu Ju smiled wryly:

"Your Majesty, the biggest reason why I came back this time is because of Feng Mingwen."

Seeing his expression, Sun Quan couldn't help frowning:

"Sit down first and talk slowly, what happened to Feng Mingwen?"

"Didn't you say in your previous letter that Feng Mingwen didn't hide his secrets and let people carefully teach the cavalry in the army?"

"Could it be possible, these days, what insidious things did Feng Mingwen do to prevent Da Wu from forming a cavalry army?"

No wonder Sun Dadi thought so.

Although after the Han Kingdom acquired Guanzhong, Liu Chan had a reputation for knowing people and making good use of them.

But as the same emperor, how could Sun Quan not know that in the state affairs of Han, there was Zhuge Liang before, and Feng Mingwen after.

A Dou is just sitting back and enjoying the benefits.

Saying that Adou is a trustworthy king, Sun Quan has nothing to say-after all, Sun Quan thinks he can't do things like building a temple for Zhuge Liang.

But to attribute the current prosperity of the Han Dynasty to Adou, it is better to attribute it to Zhuge Liang and Feng Mingwen.

Now that Zhuge Liang is dead, Feng Mingwen is the most powerful minister of the Han Dynasty.

Coupled with the reputation of Feng Langjun, Feng Guiwang, Xiaowenhe, whether Da Wu can successfully form a cavalry army really depends on Feng Mingwen's thoughts.

Following Sun Quan's wishes, Zhu Ju sat down on his seat, then heaved a long sigh and said in a low voice:

"Your Majesty misunderstood, the minister's return this time has something to do with Feng Mingwen, but it has nothing to do with the cavalry..."

"Huh?" Sun Quan was taken aback, "What do you mean?"

Zhu Ju raised his head and wanted to speak, then looked around, and stopped talking again.

Sun Quan's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked at Zhu Ju's expression, and realized that what the other party was going to say next might be very confidential.

He waved his hand, telling all the palace people to leave, and then looked at Zhu Ju.

Zhu Ju moved his body and got as close to Sun Quan as possible, then lowered his voice:

"Your Majesty, what I want to say next is the secret of Feng Mingwen's family, which should not be known to others."

"Feng Mingwen's sect?" Sun Quan was startled, then his eyes widened suddenly, "Feng Mingwen's sect!"

Since Feng Mingwen came out of the mountains, he has been in charge of the army and herdsmen, and he has led the army to fight, and he has been invincible in all battles and conquered all attacks.

In recent years, he has even dared to say that the talent in the world is a stone, and Feng Mingwen is the only one.

The disciples of the mountain gate are so terrifying.

This also led to the fact that although countless people want to find out, what kind of existence is the master behind Feng Mingwen, who can cultivate such a gorgeous figure in the world.

But frightened by Feng Mingwen's reputation, some people who are qualified to find out can only suppress their curiosity.

After all, no one knows whether forcibly exploring a certain unfathomable mountain gate will annoy the other party and cause disaster.

Now that he suddenly learned that Zhu Ju had brought back the secrets of Feng Mingwen's sect, Sun Quan suddenly reacted.

But when he stood up, he shouted loudly:

"Come on!"

There were footsteps outside the door, and at the same time a voice came: "Your Majesty?"

"Everyone, stay fifteen feet away from here. Anyone who dares to take a step closer will be killed!"

"promise."

After making sure that no one could hear their conversation, Sun Quan turned to Zhu Ju:

"Go on."

Zhu Ju also stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

As he spoke, he began to reach out and untie his belt, took off his robe, and then his inner garment, leaving his chest bare.

Then he put his hands on his waist, where a wide and thick cloth belt was still wrapped.

Undoing the thick tape, Zhu Ju tore it hard, only to hear a "hiss", and the two booklets inside were exposed.

Zhu Ju presented two booklets to Sun Quan:

"Your Majesty, please read."

Sun Quan picked it up with some doubts, and opened the first book, but saw that the first page read:

"Eight Desolation and Liuhe Only My Longevity Formula (Pillion Chapter)".

His eyes suddenly widened again, his breathing became heavy, and he looked up at Zhu Ju.

"This... this, what's going on here? How did you get it?"

Zhu Ju explained the matter in detail.

In order to let His Majesty know the whole picture of the matter, he even explained the general content of the second booklet "Insect Valley of Dian Kingdom".

...

"So it is, so it is!"

After hearing what Zhu Ju said, Sun Quan couldn't restrain his excitement at all, and his face showed ecstasy.

Subconsciously, he hugged the two booklets tightly in his arms.

"It turns out that there really is an art of cultivating immortals in the world!"

Thinking of the fact that he sent people to sea a few years ago, Sun Quan was even more convinced of the existence of Feng Mingwen's master:

"I'll just say it, I'll just say it, how could Feng Mingwen write such articles!"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but read out the poems he heard in the past:

The clouds are green and green, and there is rain, and the water is dull, and there is smoke.

There is a lack of thunderbolt, and the hills and mountains collapse.

The stone door in the cave opened in a loud voice.

The Qingming mighty bottomless, the sun and the moon shine on Jinyintai.

Ni is the clothes, the wind is the horse, and the king of clouds is coming and going.

The tiger drums and the luan return to the carriage, and the immortals are lined up like hemp.

...

Sun Quan didn't know how many times he read this article, but he almost knew it by heart.

It turns out that there are really fairy mountains overseas!

But at this time, Zhu Ju poured cold water on Sun Quan:

"Your Majesty, according to the records in the book, some of the medicinal materials in this elixir of longevity can only be effective if they are grown in Nanzhong."

"So if His Majesty wants to make alchemy in the future, he has to find a way to get medicinal materials from Nanzhong. Only in this way, I'm afraid Feng Mingwen will know about it."

Sun Quan, who was immersed in the fantasy of longevity, finally came back to his senses, and was immediately shocked:

"Why is there such a rule?"

Zhu Ju nodded:

"Exactly. In fact, Feng Mingwen has people transport a lot of medicinal materials from Nanzhong to his residence every year."

"I heard that his second wife was originally a witch doctor from the southern Zhongyi people and was good at making medicine."

After staying in Chang'an for nearly two years, Zhu Ju couldn't possibly be patronizing learning how to ride and fight as he said on the surface.

Just like Ma Su in Jiangdong, he didn't just urge the students to finish the job.

The information that should be collected, the information that can be collected, is naturally collected as much as possible.

Having said that, Zhu Ju lowered his voice again:

"I heard that there is a secret medicine in the Xinghan Society. If you eat it, you can meet a fairy in your dream and go to bliss."

"However, this kind of medicine is very rare, just like Zhao Guang, he can only get one dose in a year, and the medicine is taken from Nanzhong."

The rise of Xinghanhui can be called a miracle.

Just like the ghost stories passed down orally in every school in later generations, or the urban ghost stories brought about by urbanization.

With the rapid rise of Xinghanhui, there are naturally various rumors.

The legend of the secret medicine is just one of the more reliable ones among the many outrageous legends.

After all, these days, there are many people who eat five stone powder.

In the eyes of many people, this so-called secret medicine is almost similar to Wushi San.

But at this moment, Sun Quan's mind was extraordinarily sharp, and he immediately caught the hidden information:

"You mean, the so-called secret medicine is just a cover? In fact, Feng Mingwen transports so many medicinal materials from Nanzhong to the residence every year to refine the immortal medicine?"

Zhu Ju shook his head, but he didn't quite agree with Sun Quan's conjecture:

"Your Majesty, the elixir recorded in this longevity formula is divided into four levels of 'Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang'."

"If my guess is correct, the Xinghan Society's secret medicine is more likely to be the lowest yellow rank."

Since Sun Quan got the brochure, he has been in ecstasy all the time, how could he care to read the contents carefully?

At this time, when I heard what Zhu Ju said, I quickly read it according to what he said, and I saw it.

After confirming that it was correct, Sun Quan couldn't help but said repeatedly:

"The heaven and the earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is prehistoric. Feng Mingwen wrote "Thousand Character Essay", no wonder, no wonder!"

All of this turned out to have a context to be found.

It's just that it was cleverly hidden by Feng Mingwen in a way that went against common sense and showed the world.

"Thousand Characters" more than ten years ago, "Sleepwalking Tianmu Yin Liu Farewell" ten years ago, and now "Eternal Desolation and Liuhe Only My Longevity (Pillion Chapter)".

These things don't seem to have much relationship, but the information hidden inside is so intricate.

At this moment, Sun Quan has completely believed in the authenticity of this matter.

After all, no matter how far-sighted Feng Guiwang is, it is impossible to spend nearly twenty years to weave such a lie.

Otherwise, what is he planning?

"There are rumors in the former Nanzhong that King Feng Gui is as lustful as his life, and he has three thousand women at night. I thought it was a rumor, and the rumors are absurd."

"Today I heard the secrets of Feng Mingwen's master's school, and then I remembered the saying in "Zhuangzi": Three thousand imperial daughters, they will ascend in the daytime."

Speaking of this, Sun Quan patted the booklet in his hand and sighed: "This is groundless, and it may not be without reason!"

But Zhu Ju didn't think of this level. Hearing Sun Quan's words at this time, he suddenly remembered one thing:

"Your Majesty reminded me that I heard that Liu Liang from the Xinghan Society once received a secret medicine from Feng Mingwen to feed the Hu girls with his body, so that he could keep all the Hu girls in Liangzhou in order to reconcile the Hu people."

"This man is in the territory of the Han Dynasty, and he is called Liu Hanzi to show his courage..."

When Sun Quan heard it, he didn't know how many times his eyes widened, and his throat rolled up and down at the same time:

"Follow...follow Liangzhou Hunv?"

What kind of brave man is this?

"That's right, this person is the son of Liu Yan, the chariot and cavalry general of the Han Dynasty. Now he is the governor of Jiuyuan, and he is guarding Jiuyuan with the army."

Jiuyuan?

Since the later Han Dynasty, it has always been a place where Hu people live together.

Sun Quan swallowed again.

Thinking about the past few days, I have obtained Jiangdong's stunning Pan family, and I can't wait to have a spring night with him.

It's a pity that I am old after all, with more energy than energy.

Except for the first few days, once every three or four days is the limit.

If you can have this kind of secret medicine, why worry about the sad thing of "seeing the color and suspecting it"?

Thinking of this, Sun Quan wished he could immediately snatch the secret medicine from Feng Mingwen, so as to boost his power.

It's just that Qin Huang and Han Wu wanted to live forever, so one can imagine the difficulty of cultivating immortals.

"If Feng Mingwen can only refine the lowest-grade pills, how difficult is it for others to refine heaven-level pills?"

Thinking of this, Sun Quan was very anxious:

"No, find a way to find out whether Feng Mingwen's secret medicine is true or not. If it is true, it's best to let someone try it."

With that said, Sun Quan looked at Zhu Ju:

"This matter should not be known to others, I'm afraid Zifan should worry about it."

Zhu Ju hurriedly said, "I dare not obey orders."

No one knew what Zhu Ju had said to His Majesty after staying in the palace for a day and a night.

Many people thought it was Zhu Ju who was talking to His Majesty about what he had seen and heard in Han over the past two years.

Unexpectedly, after the annual Great Court Meeting, it will be the third year of Yanxi of the Great Han Dynasty, and also the third year of Chiwu of Wu State.

Sun Quan issued an edict, Zhu Ju, the general of the left, had made great achievements in forming the Great Wu Cavalry Army, so he moved to General Hussars.

The hussar general Si cavalry is justified.

It's just Sun Quan's second edict, which caught people off guard:

Ten years later, the emperor wanted to send a fleet to sea again to capture Zhuya and Yizhou.

As soon as the edict came out, there was an uproar in the court.

Almost all the important officials in the court strongly opposed it, and the above-mentioned generals Lu Xun and General Wei Quan Cong were particularly fierce.

"The cost of the cavalry army is ten times that of the infantry. Now that the cavalry army has not been completed, and your majesty wants to lose the soldiers on the river bank in order to hope for an emergency, the foolish officials are still uneasy."

Sun Quan didn't listen.

Lu Xun also wrote at the same time:

"Since the beginning of spring, there has been insufficient rain, and the water level of the river is 30% to 50% lower than in previous years. There may be a severe drought this year. At this time, the imperial court must prepare for the rain, otherwise, there will be great famine at the end of the year."

"If Your Majesty uses troops at this time, not only will it affect the spring plowing, but it will also exhaust the government's grain reserves in advance."
