Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

——Sister, is your surname Ren?

——Is the 'Xiu'er' the master always calls the senior sister's name?

The words of Zhang Zhongjing's eldest disciple Wang Shuhe made the woman who was eating fall silent in an instant...

However, this silence only stayed for a short time.

Soon...she returned to her old look.

Luo Luo admitted generously: "Senior Sister's surname is indeed Ren. As for 'Xiu'er', it is Senior Sister's nickname, which is not elegant."

Hearing this, the eldest disciple Wang Shuhe nodded repeatedly...

The second disciple, Du Du, became curious about his senior sister.

"I heard the master mentioned that Senior Sister's hometown is in the Central Plains, right? Everyone says that the most prosperous city in the Central Plains is Luoyang City. It's a pity that it was burned down by Dong Zhuo's fire! I just don't know that before the fire, Luoyang City How grand is the city? Senior sister, have you ever been to Luoyang? Can you tell us about it? "

"I don't live in Luoyang, so I don't know that." The woman pursed her lips slightly and told lies calmly.

"Oh...that's a pity." Du Du felt a little regretful.

He is a young man who is full of curiosity about everything.

only.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. The Luoyang mentioned by the second disciple Du Du suddenly brought back the woman's long-lasting memory.

Because it was a casual chat during the meal, and since they were all disciples of Zhang Zhongjing, no one had any ill intentions.

In addition, the conversation was about a "big city" like Luoyang, which immediately aroused everyone's curiosity.

The third disciple, Wei Xun, was young but the most agile. Following the words of the second senior brother, he hurriedly said, "I recently heard... a Luoyang patient who fled to us told us, 'In Luoyang City twenty-five years ago, , there was a stunning beauty named Diao Chan. I heard that if she went out at night, the moon would be hidden out of shyness, making the city of Luoyang dark...'"

"Where can there be a woman who makes the moon shy? It's just a rumor..." The eldest disciple Wang Shuhe was older and more knowledgeable. He waved his hand, "I don't believe it. When it comes to appearance, there are women who can compare with us. Senior sister’s.”

Indeed, the senior sister in front of me with the surname "Ren" and the nickname "Xiu'er" is nearly forty years old.

The skin cannot be as flawless as that of a twenty-eight-year-old girl, and it is inevitable that there will be many wrinkles on the face.

But... because her face is so perfect, her figure and temperament are one of a kind, even though she has been tempered by the years, even if her appearance has aged to a certain extent, she is still a rare and beautiful woman.

In these years, when she was with her master, she had to be pursued by those princes and nobles, but none of these... could make this senior sister take notice.

She always seemed to be repelling people thousands of miles away, and the years had left too little aging on her face.

More, on the contrary, it has a lot of charm that only mature women have...

It's dazzling and gives you a feeling that "you can see it from a distance but not play with it".

hard to imagine…

If such a senior sister were placed twenty-five years ago, how gorgeous would she be?

"It's a pity that senior sister was not in Luoyang twenty-five years ago." The second disciple Du Du sighed: "If senior sister was in Luoyang, how could she still get the chance to have that Diao Chan who dominates the crowd and is famous all over the world?"

"However, it doesn't matter that Senior Sister is not here, it's sad to hear the story of Diao Chan. First she was the adopted daughter of Wang Yun and Wang Situ, and then she was betrothed to Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu then killed Dong Zhuo. Diao Chan married Lu Bu again, and was finally taken by Cao Cao. The prisoner was given to Master Guan... but unfortunately, he was killed by Master Guan in the end, what a pity!"

"That's not all..." The third disciple Wei Xun said quickly: "I heard from the Luoyang patient that Diao Chan's death... was made into a story by storytellers. The so-called King Guan killed Diao Chan under the moon happened fifteen years ago. Son, and at that time... this Diao Chan had actually just given birth to a daughter, named Lingju. However, after Diao Chan was killed by Mr. Guan, I don’t know where this Lingju is? I don’t know if she is dead now. live?"

"Eh..." Wei Xun seemed to suddenly remember something, and said quickly: "It seems that Diao Chan's real name is also Ren, and the senior sister is also named Ren. Could it be that... all women named Ren are born with a good skin?"

this…

The woman couldn't stop thinking about Wei Xun's last words.

When the name "Lingju" and the words "dead or alive now" came out, the woman had already clenched her lower teeth in a very vague way, and the loneliness could not be stopped between her brows and her body.

After leaving Luoyang City, twenty-five years of baptism, all those things that have been experienced come into view one by one.

She asked herself, as a person who had died once, her heart was filled with despair.

Can…

When she heard the name "Lingju" and the words "death or alive", she still couldn't control herself.

She was twenty-five years ago;

Fifteen years ago, she was the Diao Chan who "made the moon ashamed"!

At this moment, Diao Chan stopped holding the chopsticks in her hand and looked at the dishes on the table, but her thoughts had already flown back to that night fifteen years ago.

That was a game set by Cao Cao.

——Lü Bu died in Baimen Tower, and Diao Chan washed her face with tears every day.

——Cao Cao occupied Mrs. Du and wanted to marry Guan Gong with Diao Chan!

In Xiapi City, Guan Yu's pavilion is located opposite Diaochan's pavilion.

Cao Cao wanted to attract her to meet and drive a wedge between the brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang.

What Cao Cao admired most was Guan Yu, but Cao Cao was obsessed with it and occupied Mrs. Du, which made Guan Yu unhappy.

In his opinion, it didn't matter if Liu Bei and Zhang Fei couldn't stay, but at least Guan Yu should be kept under his command, so...he had this plan to kill two birds with one stone.

Using Diao Chan as a gift to Yunchang made Yunchang owe him a favor to Cao Cao, and also made the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang feel resentful.

But never thought about it.

Just as the storyteller said - King Guan killed Diao Chan under the moon!

The Qinglong Yanyue Sword fell, and all conspiracies and conspiracies came to an end!

And this is the tone of the storyteller.

The real scene is.

That night, perhaps because Diao Chan went out, the moon was once again ashamed. The sky was extremely dark that night, and it was hard to see her fingers.

In front of the Earth Temple outside the city, Diao Chan, who put on men's clothing, bid farewell to Guan Yu...

"Be a cow or a horse in the next life, and then repay the kindness of the general."

"Your daughter Lingju, Guan will find a way to send it to you!" Guan Yu stroked his long beard, "Of course, you don't need to thank me. It's just that Guan's sword will not kill the old and young, nor will it kill women and children."

"Thank you, General..." Diao Chan thanked him again and then left slowly under the cover of night.

She didn't know why... later storytellers would make up the story of "King Guan killed Diao Chan under the moon".

She didn't know why everyone misunderstood General Guan.

but…

The only thing Diao Chan knew was that Guan Yu did not send her daughter Lingju as agreed.

Diao Chan waited for a long time, maybe three months or half a year, but still could not see her daughter.

Later I heard that it was not that Guan Gong refused to send her away, but that her daughter suddenly disappeared in Cao's camp, and her life or death was uncertain.

At that time, Diao Chan... seemed to have suddenly lost the courage to live, and her heart was filled with darkness.

Once upon a time, she used serial schemes and beauty traps, risking almost being discovered and cracked by Li Ru, to turn the tide, and finally achieved a glorious victory for the Han Dynasty;

Not long ago, Li Jue and Guo Si's rebellion brought the people of Chang'an back from heaven to hell again.

Her adoptive father Wang Yun was killed, her husband Lu Bu escaped, and all her efforts for the great man, Diao Chan, were in vain!

The foster father and Dong Zhuo, Lian Lian Ji and Feng Yi Ting, everything seemed like a dream.

As the saying goes - sorrows and joys are all the same as illusions, and dreams in ancient and modern times are all absurd.

At that moment, Diao Chan finally saw clearly that she was not a heroine capable of saving a man in danger, but an innocent woman who was ignorant of the general trend of the world.

Her loyalty, spirit, and courage without fear of danger quickly disappeared at that moment.

Diao Chan in Xuzhou turned into a vulgar, selfish, short-sighted woman who only cared about herself. She used her selfishness to gradually kill Lu Bu's remaining chance of survival.

The beautiful woman grew old so quickly, and God was not even willing to open an extra window for her so that she could take her daughter with her when she left, and then pass away.

After leaving Guan Yu, Diao Chan gradually despaired of her life, her pain, her daughter, and her husband.

She has encountered too many cruel and ruthless blows in her life, but she is just a woman. No matter how strong she is, it is difficult to maintain the inner strength to continue to be beautiful!

At that time, Diao Chan was so disheartened that she almost wanted to die.

It happened that she got a disease, a terminal disease that was almost "incurable" in the Han Dynasty - typhoid fever!

She thought...so be it!

This is how to end this life where hope and despair coexist, pain and ignorance coexist, desolation and indifference coexist.

It was also at that time that she met Zhang Zhongjing.

Fifteen years ago, Zhang Zhongjing resigned from his post as governor of Changsha in order to completely cure typhoid fever. He traveled around and saw Diao Chan suffering from typhoid fever, so he treated her.

Diao Chan was almost brought back from the gate of hell.

Just like waving goodbye to the past, what Zhang Zhongjing saved was her new life.

Later, Diao Chan told Zhang Zhongjing her identity and told Zhang Zhongjing that she... was an ominous person.

Everyone around her left him.

Zhang Zhongjing was very surprised.

Unexpectedly... In the past, Diao Chan, the woman who resolutely threw herself into danger and sacrificed everything to get rid of Dong Zhuo, and used her astonishing intelligence, bravery and beauty to save the man from falling, was the woman in front of her.

Diao Chan proposed that Diao Chan was no longer the same as before. If the benefactor would not abandon her, she would be willing to be her adoptive father and follow her adoptive father to save the common people from now on, so that her life would not be in vain.

Next, Zhang Zhongjing got an adopted daughter, and Diao Chan recognized an adopted father.

Zhang Zhongjing has no children, so where does Diao Chan have a father?

Although the two are not biological father and daughter, they are better than biological parents!

Just like that... For fifteen years, Diao Chan helped Zhang Zhongjing complete "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases".

As the male disciples who had already graduated went to spread the Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases to all directions, only the last three close disciples and the adopted daughter Diao Chan remained with Zhang Zhongjing.

As for Diao Chan's identity, Zhang Zhongjing never told any of his disciples.

By chance, a delicious meal made Diao Chan suddenly look back... and her expression changed noticeably.

"Sister? Are you okay?"

Seemingly noticing the change in Diao Chan's expression, the eldest disciple Wang Shuhe asked quickly.

"It doesn't matter..." Diao Chan shook her head slightly and was about to make up an excuse to lose her temper...

But at this moment...

"——Cough cough cough cough... cough cough cough cough..."

A violent coughing sound came from the back room.

Now, where can Diao Chan, Wang Shuhe, Du Du and Wei Xun find food?

They all rushed to the back room...

But I saw... Zhang Zhongjing at this moment, his mouth, clothes, sleeves, and bedside were full of blood...

How much blood does this require?

"——Master? Master..."

Wang Shuhe, Du Du and Wei Xun exclaimed in unison...

Diao Chan had already gone to help her adoptive father, Zhang Zhongjing, and quickly patted his back.

A full half hour.

The coughing sound finally dissipated a lot. After Diao Chan comforted her adoptive father Zhang Zhongjing to sleep, she slowly walked out of the room and closed the door...

The three disciples had already been waiting outside the door.

It seemed that he was waiting for her deliberately.

"You guys?"

"——Senior sister..." Wang Shuhe said in a heavy tone, "Master's typhoid fever has worsened again. The three of us have just discussed that during this period, anyone who comes to seek medical treatment will no longer be allowed to approach the master!"

"The master has a kind heart. Even though he is like this, he still refuses anyone who comes and will treat him when he is sick. But he can heal, how can his body still hold up?"

No wonder Uncle Wang said so...

Zhang Zhongjing is just too "kindhearted", the so-called benevolent heart of a doctor.

He knew his physical condition, but even so, whenever someone came to visit him, Zhang Zhongjing would be lying on the bed, and he would diagnose their pulse and teach him how to use medicine.

And because of Zhang Zhongjing's famous name, dignitaries, villagers, and ordinary people would come to seek medical treatment from time to time.

It was precisely for this reason that Zhang Zhongjing's mental and physical condition worsened.

now…

The time has come when a decision must be made.

Wang Shuhe's tone was firm, "From today on, the three of us will not go out for medical consultation. We will stay outside the courtyard and block all visitors."

As Wang Shuhe's words fell.

Diao Chan raised her eyes slightly, "But if the master knew that you didn't go around to ask for medical advice, and knew that you prevented patients from coming to the door, then... it would definitely... happen..."

"We can't control that much anymore." Second disciple Du Du said with a serious face, "How many patients are there in the world? Can they be saved? Besides, with Master like this, how can the three of us safely save people? And... let's start with that. So be it, but senior sister must hide it for us."

"Yes, please senior sister, please hide it for us." Third disciple Wei Xun hurriedly said.

It seems that they have already discussed it.

And looking at Wang Shuhe, Du Du, Wei Xun... those firm eyes.

Diao Chan bit her lip hard with her silver teeth...

Her packed fists were released in an instant, and she knew...the three junior brothers were right, and this was what they should do!

…

…

The sun was scorching, and the spears, swords and halberds reflected the cold light under the sun. The bright and neat armor showed the majesty of the Guan family army.

A goshawk rose from the forest, fluttering its wings and soaring into the sky.

The Guan family army stretched for several miles and marched neatly on the official road in the wild. More than two thousand repeating crossbows were equipped on the most elite soldiers. This undoubtedly gave them more confidence in the Northern Expedition.

The sidecars and wooden oxen and horses went ahead on the left side of the army. The wooden oxen and horses were filled with a large amount of military rations.

The soldiers and horses have not yet used the food and fodder to go ahead...

It was Guan Ping, Guan Xing, and Guan Suo who were responsible for transporting this batch of military rations.

When you see these wooden cows and flowing horses walking on the official road, any pit or mud in front of them will feel like walking on flat ground.

Guan Ping couldn't help but sigh: "These wooden oxen and flowing horses may seem clumsy, but they are extremely dexterous. Each soldier can control three of them, greatly increasing the efficiency of transporting grain and grass."

I never like to show off other people's interest, but I can't hide my admiration for the ingenious design of the Wooden Ox and Flooding Horse at this moment. "If we had had these, how could we have failed in the Northern Expedition many times due to the inconvenience of transporting grain and grass."

"Haha..." Guan Ping said with a smile: "At least this time, my Guan family army will never be restricted by the transportation of grain and grass."

Over here, the three brothers were chatting.

Over there, Guan Yu stood at the gate of Jiangling City, watching the army leave the city.

Mi Fang was still following him like a follower.

"Yun Chang, I...I...I racked my brains to raise this food for you. You promised me to build the city...with the money from Yun Qi!"

From yesterday, Mi Fang seemed to be relying on Guan Yu, and he would go wherever Guan Yu went.

It seems that if Guan Yu doesn't agree to build a new city, Mi Fang will never give up.

In the end, Guan Yu had no choice but to agree to Mi Fang, but... the specific land allocation needs to be discussed later.

At this moment, Mi Fang was particularly worried.

In name, it was to say goodbye to Guan Yu, but in fact, it was to emphasize again and again to prevent Guan Yu from defaulting on his debt.

Guan Yu was also convinced...

When did Governor Mi become so persistent?

Or.

——"Haha, this is really strange. What method did Yun Qi use? What makes this Mi Zifang so persistent? Standing on his side like this? It’s unimaginable! 』

Thinking this in his heart, Guan Yu was still polite to Mi Fang: "Zifang, wait for Guan to return from the victory, and also wait for Yun Qi to return. Let's sit down and talk about this matter. Zifang can rest assured. Yun Qi has both This means that as a father, how can Guan let down this child?"

In fact, Guan Yu thought about this all night last night.

To guard against Soochow, a new city had to be built, and Guan Lin, a brat, had to pay for it, so it was impossible to completely deny it.

But... this brat takes up 70% of the total. This is a lion's mouth. It's really too much.

The most that Guan Yu can accept is - "50-50"!

Each side takes a step back and each takes half!

Of course, Guan Yu didn't tell Mi Fang this!

He knew that whenever he opened his mouth, Mi Fang Baoqi would chase him to his bed at night and have to persuade him in his dreams.

——"Haha... This brat has inspired this rare perseverance." 』

"Sure, since Yunchang said this, I feel relieved and wish Yunchang victory."

After Mi Fang finished speaking, she stepped aside.

However, Ma Liang still had something to say, so he took a step forward.

"Guan Gong, you still need to be careful with Wenpin in this battle. He was originally stationed north of Jiangxia and controlled Jingjiang. There is news that now Manchong of Xiangyang City has made the decision for Cao Ren and has taken over all the power to mobilize troops in Xiangfan. Leave it to Wenpin... Guan Gong has suffered some small losses from him before, so we should be more careful."

——Wenpin?

After chanting this name, Guan Yu's eyes suddenly became sharp.

He blurted out: "It's just a literary appointment, what's the point? Guan Mou regards it as a local chicken tile..."

Guan Yu originally wanted to say "local chickens and tile dogs"

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them all in a daze.

He suddenly thought something was wrong.

He had also despised this brat Yun Qi back then.

But the final result was extremely tragic.

Even in the "Great Reconciliation", he, Guan Yu, kept his posture to the lowest level, put it all in the latrine, and allowed this brat to wipe his dirty hands on his father's clothes.

This price...

Guan Yu never wanted to have this feeling of "miserable defeat" again.

I can no longer look down on this kid...

From here to there, you should no longer look down on anyone.

The price of losing to a son is so heavy, let alone losing to an enemy?

The price will definitely be a hundred times more painful!

So much so that it is difficult to collect water!

These…

——It makes Guan Yu extremely scared to think about it!

"Ahem..."

With a slight cough, Guan Yu changed his words, "Ji Chang, don't worry, Wenpin has some abilities, Guan will treat him with all possible caution!"

this…

Guan Yu's change of tune surprised Ma Liang.

In fact, what Guan Yu said later was what Ma Liang wanted to give him.

But now it seems that it is unnecessary.

only…

Ma Liang was quite surprised to hear such words from Guan Yu.

——'Is this still the arrogant Guan Gong? 』

——"Has Master Yunqi's influence on him already been able to be used on the battlefield?" 』

Thinking of this, Ma Liang was surprised and happy.

What is surprising is the subtle change in Guan Gong's character;

The good news is that as the old saying goes - Guan Gong who throws away his pride is invincible on the battlefield.

All of a sudden, Ma Liang's original worries disappeared without a trace.

He handed over:

——"Liang Ye is waiting quietly for Guan Gong to defeat Wenpin, severely damage Xiangfan, regain Jiangxia, and send back the news of victory!"

"Haha..." Guan Yu smiled and got on his horse. As soon as Fang got on his horse, he suddenly thought of something and asked Yang Yi, "Is there any news from Kong Ming in Sichuan?"

Guan Yu's words have two meanings.

First, he asked Yang Yi if he had reached Shuzhong and whether the scouts sent later had caught up with him.

You must not let Kong Ming see Yun Qi's answer sheet and Guan Yu's letter at the same time. It would be a big joke.

Secondly, Guan Yu was eager to know whether Kong Ming recognized Yun Qi, a closed disciple?

only…

Guan Yu's words just came out.

Ma Liang laughed directly, "Guan Gong is joking, right?"

"how?"

"Yang Shangshu has only been away for three or four days!" Ma Liang explained, "It will take at least half a month to get from Jingzhou to Shuzhong, and it will take at least twenty days to reply to the letter. How can we get the news now?"

Oh... Guan Yu suddenly understood.

The so-called care is chaos.

——‘Why are you so concerned about that brat all of a sudden? 』

but…

Guan Yu's eyes narrowed and he kept mumbling.

——‘Is it only three or four days? 』

yes…

During this period, too many things happened, and Guan Yu and Guan Lin had many arguments.

Then Cao Ren fainted, Cao Chun died, and the father and son reconciled and peeed together again. Guan Yu also helped him scare the troops, and by the way... there was also Zhucheng.

Putting these things together, for Guan Yu, it felt like a long year.

In fact…

In just a few days, Guan Yu's personality has indeed changed a bit, and he has changed a bit in the gentle breeze and drizzle.

And often the change of a person's personality requires a long process and requires a thorough understanding based on rich experience.

This process made Guan Yu feel like he was in another world.

call…

At this moment, Guan Yu exhaled a long breath.

He glanced back at Mi Fang and Ma Liang one last time, then waved his hands and rode away on the red rabbit horse.

In Ma Liang's eyes, he was suddenly full of confidence in this Northern Expedition.

Even in the dry season.

Even if they are facing Cao Jun's cavalry regiment.

Even if the enemy is Wenpin, who once caused Guan Yu a small loss.

But the combination of side carriage, continuous crossbow, wooden cow and flowing horse can be used in front;

Guan Gong's arrogance dissipated behind him.

This battle...is bound to achieve great results!

…

…
