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

Chapter 228 They are all full of desire for survival!

Jiaozhou, Cangwu County.

"--well!"

With a long sigh of "Alas", Lu Xun on the Cangwu Tower frowned and thought deeply.

He couldn't sleep well these days.

In addition to the worry caused by his wife Sun Ru's sudden arrival, he always felt a cold feeling behind his back, as if he was always being remembered.

Especially at night, under the endless darkness, it felt like a dagger was stabbing towards him silently.

He woke up suddenly several times, like a nightmare, causing him to break out in cold sweat, and he looked panicked all day long.

Sun Ru next to her lowered her head and spoke slowly, "It's all my concubine's fault... that makes Boyan so sad, but... I do it for my mother and brother. Now they... don't know whether they are dead or alive?"

Her words were concise and straightforward, with no hint of coquettishness. Instead, she sounded clear and clear, as if she had no regrets.

In fact, Sun Ru came here specifically to find her mother Da Qiao and her younger brother Sun Shao. It was impossible for her to regret it.

"It doesn't matter..." Lu Xun's brows twitched, he calmed down his worry and frustration, and said calmly: "Counting the time, my urgent message will probably be delivered to the hands of Marquis Wu soon... I'll attack The city, he sent people to take over the city, that’s already the case, he has no reason to doubt anymore.”

"What a pity for the Lu family's foundation." Sun Ru said with emotion: "Otherwise... these seven counties in Jiaozhou all belong to my husband and are the Lu family's property."

"It's a blessing, not a curse. What's more... the great man rules the world with filial piety, and Madam is right."

Lu Xun raised his head slightly, looking through the desolate branches and staring at the blue sky. After a long time, he slowly took it back and focused back on Sun Ru.

"It is because of you that the third brother of the Lu family has been in power all these years, and I have become the acting patriarch of the Lu family, and I am what I am today. Madam, I am grateful to you, even if... no matter how much you lose, there is nothing to regret. "

There was only sadness in Sun Ru's eyes.

She naturally understands how much price her husband paid in order to become the patriarch of the Lu family?

Even if it was... marrying her, the daughter of the enemy of the Lu family's four-bedroom family and hundreds of lives.

"I don't know what my uncle will do when he receives Boyan's letter."

Sun Ru asked calmly.

"He will send a powerful character to take over these cities and counties, and then keep an eye on me to see how I continue to attack..."

Lu Xun seemed to have seen through everything, "If I can capture the entire Jiaozhou and hand it over to the Marquis of Wu, naturally, this suspicion will disappear. I can also gain the trust of the Marquis of Wu again, and maybe... I can become the Grand Governor as I wish. !”

"So what if I become the Grand Governor?" Sun Ru pursed her lips, "Aren't the Grand Governors of Soochow, including Zhou Gongjin, also dead?"

Her casual words made Lu Xun's mood throb and surge again.

Lu Xun was speechless for a moment...

Sun Ru sighed "Oh", "My mother and brother are in Jiaozhou. Boyan's 'uncle' who is five years younger than me seems to have been sent to Jiaozhou by Wu Hou, right?"

The previous sentence is "the great governor of Soochow";

This sentence was "Lu Xun's little uncle." Sun Ru's two consecutive sentences instantly made Lu Xun's heart surge.

"I forgot about him..." Lu Xun couldn't help but murmur.

"What?" Sun Ru asked quickly.

Lu Xun subconsciously bit his lip with his teeth, and after pondering for a long time, he finally said: "If this little uncle of mine falls into Shi Xie's hands, then... there will be trouble!"

Sun Ru's big eyes blinked, as if she could not understand what her husband meant.

"call--"

And with a long exhale, Lu Xun raised his hand.

He shook his head as if to comfort himself, "It's okay, the Governor of the Seventh County of Jiaozhou probably wouldn't have thought of this!"

"Which floor?" Sun Ru asked impatiently.

Lu Xun took a deep breath, "Find Gongji (Lu Ji), and then use him to threaten me... Let me make the Lu family army afraid to take another step!"

ah…

Sun Ru seemed to suddenly realize.

Why didn't she think of that?

The Lu family army in my husband's hands traces back to its origin...it is the branch of Lu Kang, the fourth member of the Lu family.

My husband is only the acting patriarch. The nominal patriarch of the Lu family is still sent to Jiaozhou to be the governor of Yulin - Lu Ji.

If the husband doesn't care about his safety, then...it would be a trivial matter to be poked in the back by everyone in the world.

The most important thing is...the members of the Lu family will definitely switch sides!

Most definitely!

Thinking of this, cold sweat broke out on Sun Ru's forehead. She subconsciously reached out and patted her face gently.

She thought to herself:

——"My mouth must not be...a crow's mouth!" 』

Over there.

Shi Xie rushed back to Jiaozhi at noon and was now standing at the top of the city.

Speaking of which, Jiaozhi is close to Changsha, so if you rush back, it will only take you more than a hundred miles.

Shi Xie rushed back all day and night.

But before he came back, his letter had been delivered first, and Cochin was quite busy that day.

At this moment, Shi Xie's younger brother Shi Yi was reporting.

"According to the instructions in the brother's letter, a thousand pieces of music have been selected as gifts to the Fourth Young Master Guan, together with two hundred smart young people who have gone to learn how to use the 'Eight Ox Crossbow'. Just now, led by Zier, They were all sent to Jiangling...According to my brother's special instructions, no one carried any weapons."

"My brother has also gone to Changsha early in the morning. I expect to meet Mr. Han Xuan tonight. As for the gold and grain required for the transaction, they are all ready. As long as Jiangling sends back news to prove that the Eight Ox Crossbow 'The power is worthy. These gold and grains can be transported to Changsha at any time..."

just like…

Shi Xie's younger brother, Shi Yi, was extremely reliable and efficient in his dealings.

Of course, he is also in his sixties, so there is no problem with his experience and ability.

"Okay." After listening to Shi Yi's words, Shi Xie stroked his beard, nodded gently, and said with emotion: "This Fourth Young Master Guan is a kind man and a fastidious person. He is fastidious, and we must also be fastidious about this. We need to pay more attention...Also, have you found the person that Fourth Young Master Guan asked us to find?"

"The patriarch of the Lu family, one of the four major families in Dongjun, and the governor of Yulin - Lu Ji!" Shi Yi said quickly: "I found it. I really found it in the largest orange grove in Yulin. Now, I'm asking On the way to our Jiaozhi...if this Fourth Young Master Guan hadn't reminded me, I would never have thought that he was Lu Xun and the Lu family's weakness! I would never have thought that he could be used to... threaten the Lu family! "

"Hahaha…"

Hearing this, Shi Xie showed a long-lost smile, "This is the charm of Fourth Young Master Guan... This young man is kind, smart, alert and helpful... Besides, he is still young. Such a person can become our Jiaozhou Shi A friend of the family must never become an enemy... If I were to be his enemy, I have a feeling that I don’t even know how he died!”

"Brother, don't worry!" Shi Yi held his hand.

Shi Xie continued to give instructions: "When Lu Ji comes to our Jiaozhi, let us know that the patriarch of the Lu family is in our hands. If the so-called Lu family army dares to take a step forward, their patriarch will be handed over to the state army to sacrifice the flag." ! This news must be spread especially to the Lu Family Army!"

Shi Yi nodded solemnly.

But something suddenly occurred to him, and he couldn't help but ask a question.

"I heard that four hundred years ago, when Chu and Han were fighting, Xiang Yu kidnapped Gaozu's father and wanted to use a bitter trick. He sent someone to tell Liu Bang, 'If you don't surrender, I will boil your father alive.' I remember from afar that Liu Bang The answer is, 'You and I both work together under King Huai of Chu. Although we are not a family, we are brothers, so my father is your father. Since you want to boil your father to death, I can't do anything to you. , then please take a piece of my pie for the sake of your brothers!'"

Speaking of this, Shi Yi paused.

It seems that... You Zi felt uncomfortable because of Liu Bang's "rebellious" words.

"Brother, do you think...Lu Xun will..."

"No!" Shi Xie waved his hand and said, "I also asked Master Guan about this what you mentioned. What do you think he said?"

"How?"

"He said that if Lu Xun was half as cruel as Emperor Gaozu, then even the 'Eight Ox Crossbow' could not stop his Lu family army!" Shibian said calmly, "It's a pity... A humble gentleman, as gentle as jade, Lu Xun is a gentleman Ah, he was called the 'God King' when he was young. Such a gentleman cherishes his reputation more than his life, and his identity also destined him to never be so ruthless!"

Speaking of which…

Shi Xie's eyes moved forward faintly, as if he had passed through the mountains, through Jiaozhi, through Yulin, and through Cangwu...

Stopped at the place where the Lu Family Army was stationed.

Shi Xie seemed to be able to see...

Just as Mr. Guan Si said, one Lu Ji is about to cause an uproar in the entire Lu family army, which puts Lu Xun in a dilemma!

Inside the government office of Hefei City.

Sun Quan, the thirty-three-year-old leader of the Soochow Kingdom, finally came here, to this place...he had always wanted to come to.

At this moment, he saw the huge character "Zhang" on the main seat.

Of course Sun Quan knows, who does this "Zhang" refer to?

With a "swish" sound, Sun Quan drew his sword and split the bamboo mat under the character "Zhang" into two pieces.

The bamboo mat is broken...

The sword was raised high.

It was as if this sword had vented the humiliation of Sun Quan's battle at Xiaoyaojin, his infamy of "Sun Shiwan", and the grievances he had suffered in the past few months.

"Woof woof..."

Sun Quan's new dog was wagging its tail next to Sun Quan, as if he felt the same feelings and shared the same hatred as his owner.

at this time.

"Report——"

A courier quickly delivered an urgent message from Jiaozhou.

It was written by Lu Xun himself.

Sun Quan slowly unfolded it, and the content... The most intuitive thing is that it made Sun Quan feel "full of desire to survive"...

"hehe."

Sun Quan sneered and muttered: "What a Lu Boyan! His Lu family's army attacked the city, and he didn't take any money, but let Gu sent people to take over the counties in Jiaozhou. This kind of method can be thought of, haha..."

Sun Quan seemed to be in a good mood, at least...this proved Lu Xun's fear of him.

Immediately, Sun Quan greeted the puppy. The puppy understood and jumped to Sun Quan's side. Sun Quan picked him up and played with the dog with great interest!

"——Ahem!"

At this moment, a cough came from outside the door.

"My lord... I failed to capture Shouchun, so I came here to apologize."

It was Lu Meng... When he saw Sun Quan, he immediately knelt down on one knee, performed a military salute, and bowed his head deeply, as if with infinite apology.

Yu Jin led the Runan army to support Shouchun, but Lu Meng led the army to withdraw. Sun Quan already knew about this.

Of course, he didn't mean to blame Lu Meng.

In other words, he had no intention of blaming Lu Meng for this simple matter.

As for the previous matter... Sun Quan is not a generous person.

"Ziming, wake up quickly."

Sun Quan showed the side of a lord and a virtuous corporal. He bowed and helped Lu Meng up.

"Ahem..."

However, Lu Meng's rapid coughing caught Sun Quan's attention.

"Didn't Ziming feel fine last night? Why are you coughing today!"

"It was my negligence." Lu Meng shook his head and said: "Originally, I was going to capture Shouchun for my lord, but I heard that... Yu Jin had already led his army to form a formation in advance, forming a horn with Shouchun City. I thought about it again and again, and felt that there was no way Opportunity, so... we could not withdraw our troops, but it was easy to withdraw our troops, but I felt extremely annoyed. I took off my helmet in a fit of anger... I never thought that when the wind blew... I started coughing. It should be because of the cold... cough cough cough cough... "

The reason why ancient generals wore heavy armor was that they also liked to wear cloaks.

This is because... Wearing armor can make you hot in the summer and cold in the winter. A cloak can protect you from the sun in the summer and cold in the winter... and can also be used as a quilt at night.

And the helmet... is more important than the cape.

Under normal circumstances, taking off the helmet suddenly while moving at high speed will lead to the invasion of typhoid fever. In severe cases, it can lead to sudden death...

Of course... Lu Meng did it deliberately, and he controlled it within a certain degree.

A person who just happened to suffer from mild typhoid fever, and then... took advantage of it to resign from the power of commanding the army, making his deeds of Lu Meng's capture of Hefei become transparent.

Otherwise...the more outstanding he is, the more he will appear to be "not as good as a dog"!

"Cough cough cough——"

There was another cough, and Lu Meng looked apologetic, "It's all because of the general's negligence, so... now I can only resign from the position of commander, or go back to rest for a few days, I'm afraid I won't be able to command the troops in a short time, alas... Finally, I’d better repair the ‘Lucheng’ for my lord first!”

Books are never in vain.

In the stories of people from the past.

In particular, Gou Jian, the king of Yue, "sleeped on the firewood and tasted courage";

Especially "the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooked\

,"Especially the stories of many monarchs, such as King Goujian of Yue and Fan Li, Wen Zhong...

There are many masters who can share adversity but cannot enjoy happiness together!

What's more, people like Lu Meng truthfully explained Guan Lin's "unscrupulous" words yesterday and called the lord Sun Quan "not as good as a dog"!

This is a big taboo!

Lu Meng knows Sun Quan too well and can see this situation clearly.

That's why he took off his helmet after a quick illness, deliberately caught a cold, and took the initiative to resign from the power of "commanding the troops."

"Ziming conquered Hefei this time and made a great contribution..." Sun Quan squinted his eyes, looking regretful, "Originally, I wanted to grant Ziming the title of right governor...but I never thought..."

"It's me who failed to live up to expectations!" Lu Meng looked annoyed, "Any case of typhoid fever requires a hundred days of recuperation. I'd better take good care of my body first. As for my thousands of steps, I can't wait for a while." If you can’t fight with me, just leave it to the Lord.”

Well…

Hearing this, Sun Quan frowned.

——‘Bo Yan and Zi Ming are both full of desire for survival! 』

Immediately, Sun Quan smiled and handed Lu Xun's letter to Lu Meng:

"——Ziming, look at this..."

Lu Meng took it, glanced at it, and couldn't help but frown slightly, and said with emotion: "If Boyan only attacks the city but does not occupy it, that will be enough to show his loyalty!"

"Hahaha..." Sun Quan laughed and said: "It's just a letter, it's not the city of Hefei. Gu can only see that Ziming is loyal to Gu. As for Lu Boyan, is he loyal or traitorous? Gu and him are hundreds of miles apart. , how can you spy on it?"

just like…

There is something in Sun Quan's words.

Lu Meng heard something, and he asked tentatively: "My lord, you mean... let the general continue to investigate?"

"Check, of course we have to check." Sun Quan's green eyes narrowed, and his expression became gloomy. He ordered: "Lu Boyan said that he wanted to capture the seven counties of Jiaozhou, but he gave up all the Gu faction. People take over, haha, doesn’t Ziming find it interesting?”

"I feel that some people are as loyal as traitors, and some people are as loyal as traitors. I want to know, is what Lu Boyan said true? Or is it just perfunctory..."

Speaking of this, Sun Quan said: "Since Ziming has suffered from the cold, Quan...he should cultivate for a few days first, but in the whole of Soochow, I trust you the most. I don't want any of your troops...I will add three thousand more to you." Buqu, I want you to rush to Jiaozhou in a few days!"

"Didn't Lu Boyan just attack the city and let Gu send people to take over? Gu sent Zi Ming! Gu gave Zi Ming the title of 'Governor of the Seven Counties of Jiaozhou'! Zi Ming, take a good look at this Lu Boyan for Gu. Let's see if he attacks Jiaozhou with all his strength? Or does he hold back? He respects himself as a bandit... Is he 'loyal as a traitor' or 'a traitor as loyal as a traitor'!"

This... Lu Meng understood and immediately handed over his hand, "My lord means to use this to hand over the seven counties of the state as a test to see if Lu Xun can really capture it and whether he can really hand over these seven counties to my lord. If so, he hesitates to move forward." , Pushed by three obstacles and unable to attack... Then he must have something in his heart, and his collusion with Jingzhou has been confirmed!"

"What you said is mostly right, but when Gu heard it, he was wrong about one thing!" Sun Quan suddenly interrupted, "The city and county of Jiaozhou was not handed over to Lu Boyan, but to you...the entire Soochow. , besides Zijing, the person I trust the most is you, Lu Ziming!"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Meng was moved.

Immediately he knelt down on one knee again, cupped his hands and said:

"——General...dare you disobey me?"

Sun Quan helped Lü Meng up again with an expression of deep love between king and minister.

Of course, once upon a time, this was how he helped Xu Kun, Zhou Yu, and Tai Shi Ci.

There were no more greetings. After a while, Lu Meng had already accepted the order and left.

Sun Quan was still holding this puppy that brought him "great luck".

He did not forget to smile and sigh: "You beast, let me see you, haha, you have been beaten and fed, you should be more honest in front of me!"

Just said this.

"Father..." Sun Deng's voice came from outside the door.

Sun Deng noticed that his father, Sun Quan, was fighting dogs, and hurriedly walked to Sun Quan's side, "Here's a letter from Governor Zijing..."

As soon as I heard Lu Su's letter.

Sun Quan's expression was uncharacteristically gloomy, pinched, and playful, but he quickly subsided.

"Where is the letter? Bring it." Sun Quan's tone became serious.

Sun Deng hurriedly submitted the letter, not forgetting to briefly describe: "The governor's condition seems to have improved. Is this letter sent here because he made a bet with the Fourth Young Master Guan?"

"Gamble?" When Sun Quan heard this word, he always felt it was quite harsh. It was because of this "gamble" that he lost the three counties of Changsha, Guiyang, and Jiangxia.

He, Sun Quan, doesn't like gambling, and even... hates gambling.

Without waiting... Sun Deng briefly stated that Sun Quan had already seen the middle, and one of the sentences came into view.

His green eyes opened, wide and round.

He exclaimed:

——"If Zijing loses, he will have to stay in Jiangxia for two years?"

——"If Shiro Guan loses, will he have to choose one of Gu's daughters, Dahu and Xiaohu?"

——"What kind of bet is this? Isn't it supposed to be a marriage proposal? Why is the daughter of an orphan going to Jingzhou as a 'hostage'!"

Just like that, in Sun Quan's world of experience.

If you marry your daughter outside, there is only one possibility: "taking it as a pledge"!

But he loves the big tiger and the little tiger too much...

How could he be willing to marry his precious daughter outside?

——"Zijing, Zijing, what are you doing?" 』

——"Zijing...are you so optimistic about this Guan family?" 』

Thoughts on this…

Sun Quan's eyes were still following the letter.

And when he read the two words "Peace is the most important thing, put aside disputes, and join the Northern Expedition together, both sides will benefit from peace, and both will suffer from confrontation." He couldn't help but be startled.

I thought to myself:

——"Is this what Sekijiashiro proposed?" After the capture of Hefei... the current situation, so it turns out that's how it is! 』

——"Haha, no wonder Zijing is so optimistic about this Guan family Shiro!" Haha, Zijing's eyes are still as vicious as ever! 』

——"Haha, if so, that would be interesting! 』

Finally finished coding! sleep. Will continue tomorrow.
