Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Of course Guo Shao wanted to send Grandma Wushan to Tokyo immediately to see a doctor for Wang Pu, so that she could try to cure her sooner; but Wang Pu had been ill for several months, so there was no need to continue to force Grandma Wushan for a short period of time because of panic. Guo Shao felt that it would be more appropriate to let her "voluntarily" wait for a way to persuade her.

Something more troublesome happened, Grandma Bai and the two women followed him all the time, as if they were afraid that he would escape. Guo Shao felt that Grandma Bai was hurt by love, as if her mind was not normal, and she also murmured inwardly, can such a woman cure Wang Pu? Or is the young lady next to Grandma Bai really good at medicine?

These two people are locals from Wushan. There are so many villagers who know the basics, so there is nothing wrong with them. Guo Shao treated them kindly and didn't drive them away.

He decided to go out of the city on the spur of the moment, and Grandma Wushan also followed. Guo Shao had no choice but to ask someone to find a carriage for them to travel. Not long after leaving Beicheng, they went up the mountain road, and the cars and horses were useless, so Guo Shao dismounted and climbed along the mountain road with a group of people.

This road is seen on the city wall, and it is the road that "can lead to Kuizhou". Guo Shao followed the mountain road, and the guards led the horses slowly. It took more than half an hour to climb to the top of the mountain. Guo Shao himself was exhausted and out of breath. Climbing the mountain was really exhausting.

When he turned his head to look, he saw that Grandma Wushan and the little lady looked calm, they were fine. Immediately praised: "I think I'm in good health, you are even stronger, won't you be tired from climbing such a high mountain?"

The little lady said: "We often go up the mountain to look for rare medicinal materials, what kind of mountain is this?"

"It's time for me to exercise more." Guo Shao took a long breath and looked up.

Guo Shao was very disappointed by what he saw. After climbing the mountain for so long, there was still a mountain in front of him. It is also good to have two unrelated people around. Guo Shao complained to them: "I don't like to be in this kind of place. The mountains are still in the past, and you can't see the end. It's like being imprisoned in one place. The difficulty of the Shu country is not the Shu army, but the road."

The little lady said angrily: "The road to Shu is harder than going to the blue sky. I have already said something. You still want to come, isn't it because you are thinking about other people's territory, and you want too many things, who can you blame?"

"Huh?" Guo Shao suddenly felt that this young lady was very knowledgeable, maybe it was just an illusion, to study medicine should read medical books, and it is normal to be able to read and write a few poems. He said: "You are right, I want too much..."

He had to admit in his heart that the fight against Shu was not all for righteousness and publicity. He could also gain prestige and a higher status personally; he could also expand his country's strength and make his position stronger.

"But it's also a kind of duty." Guo Shao pondered, and smiled when he came back to his senses, "You little lady doesn't understand. By the way, I heard Bai Shengshou call you Lan'er, and your name is Bai Lan?"

The young lady said angrily: "The third aunt's surname is Bai, I want to have the same surname as her, should I call her Auntie?"

Grandma Bai took over and said, "Lan'er's surname is Lu, and her name is Lu Lan."

"Lu..." Guo Shao said, "I remember meeting a young lady in Zhuozhou, Hebei. Her father's name was Doctor Lu. I forget her name, but her surname is also Lu, haha."

Lu Lan asked gently: "Marshal Guo still remembers a person we met by chance?"

"Her father cured my cold..." Guo Shao looked at the green hills in the distance and recalled, "Of course it's not just that reason. I remember the place where I lived at the time felt very good, with a small yard and a quiet house, and when I got up in the morning, there was simple but delicious food on the table, which was very warm... And when I went back at night, I would occasionally meet that beautiful lady. Whenever the sky darkened, I still had a little expectation when I walked to that street."

Lu Lan's voice became softer and her tone seemed to be more gentle: "I thought that a big man like Marshal Guo didn't care about such poor places and people at all."

Guo Shao was reminiscing about those little past events. He didn't pay much attention to Lu Lan's words, but he was caught in his own emotions: "I just think people like her are full of humanity, and I don't want to affect their lives." He was a little sad.

Guo Shao took a deep breath and said, "With strong national power, kind-hearted people like Lu Shenyi's family will not be bullied and trampled by foreign invaders, and they will not have to run away from home on their own land! Now that I live in this world and come to this position, and there are people I care about here, I should do something within my power... This is righteousness, under the righteousness, there are thousands of living people.

Therefore, I want to conquer the Kingdom of Shu. Only with a larger territory and a larger population can the national strength be strengthened. You said in the restaurant in the morning that I used righteousness to oppress people with a big hat... Women have women's ideas, and a man also has the responsibilities of a man, you don't have to scoff at it. As warriors with professionalism, we use war to realize the meaning of our own life and defend beautiful things with iron and blood, instead of ignoring the decline of the country and using the suffering of women and children to understand human nature. "

"Dayi can mean that." Lu Lan murmured, "My mother..."

At this moment, Grandma Bai frowned and said, "Didn't Lan'er and your father come from Zhuozhou, Hebei?"

"Oh?" Guo Shao recovered and asked in surprise.

Lu Lan murmured, "Your Majesty Guo often forgets things. I still remember what you look like, but you just forgot."

Guo Shao was stunned, and laughed loudly: "That's really fate! Well... how can we never meet each other in life." He glanced at Lu Lan's masked face, and said with a smile, "Even if I remember what you look like, your face is swollen like that, I still can't recognize you now."

…When I encountered such a thing by chance, although it was a person who met by chance and had little relationship, Guo Shao was very happy, and it felt good to meet again with shallow memories like that.

The next day, Guo Shao witnessed Lu Lan's quick and clever diagnostic methods... At least in Guo Shao's eyes, he looked very clever, and he became more and more convinced that the famous "Wushan Master" might really be this little lady.

But this little joy was quickly forgotten by Guo Shao, because the people who went to explore the road came back within a few days, and reported that the road to Beishan was indeed accessible, and they could reach Kuizhou by land.

"Immediately order the entire army to end the rest and start tomorrow." Guo Shao ordered in the signing room, "commanders and generals above, immediately go to the county government hall to discuss matters, and drive away idlers and others."

"Brother, I'll send the messenger right away." Luo Mengzi said.

Guo Shao looked at the two women who were following him, and said, "We are leaving Wushan tomorrow to fight a war. You don't have to go with us, right?"

Lu Xiaoniang looked at Grandma Bai beside her. Grandma Bai said: "If you take Kuizhou down, don't you go to Chengdu?"

Guo Shao touched his forehead: "If you have made up your mind, then the woman next to me is called Jing Niang. She is more experienced in traveling and living in the open air, and will take care of you. Now go to Jing Niang, she is in the back hall; don't follow me, I'm going to discuss military plans."

... Lu Xiaoniang woke up very early the next day, and couldn't fall back asleep after tossing and turning.

"We use war to realize the meaning of our own life, and use iron and blood to defend beautiful things..." The more strange and incomprehensible the words, the clearer Lu Xiaoniang remembers them. She couldn't help thinking about this sentence over and over again, but she still couldn't fully understand it, but she remembered the look in Guo Shao's eyes when he said this sentence, as if he was daydreaming.

He is a very strange person, different from anyone he has ever seen, Lu Lan is very curious.

But he already has a family, and it can be seen from the letter that he has a deep affection for his "wife"; moreover, his identity is too different from his own. Lu Lan has always been able to recognize the reality clearly, knowing that Guo Shao is not the person she is looking for to entrust her life... Her idea is to find someone like her father, which is more reliable. Thinking back now, her former fiancé, the son of the pharmacy owner in Zhuozhou, was very likely to be like her father, but he was chopped down by the Khitan before he was married (not to mention that he had no physical relationship).

Of course, she was not sad when the pharmacist died, because she also hated him a little bit. It's just that compared to Guo Shao, Guo Shao is even more unreliable.

"It's completely unreliable, and even more unreliable." Lu Lan murmured after thinking for a long time.

But bits and pieces of the long past reappeared in her mind... In the dim and narrow room in Zhuozhou, intentionally or unintentionally, she suddenly bumped into the door of the bedroom, and the mountain-like figure made her heart throb. What kind of feeling is the throbbing in the heart, like being frightened, and like being hit by something, and the brain is numb.

And when he met him on the street in Zhuozhou, Hebei, he wanted to take him for a ride in his own carriage. What a ridiculous way, how could I, an innocent girl, get into his carriage alone? But Lu Lan still couldn't forget his sincere eyes, as if she could really appreciate his love. Gentle and sincere eyes, at least for a moment, his eyes are all focused on himself.

In Lu Lan's heart, Guo Shao is like a person who came out of a dream, very floating. But somehow, even something as small as cooking a breakfast can take on meaning when he's around.

At this moment, the heavy footsteps of "click, click, click" sounded outside. Lu Lan was very interested in novelty and new things, so she hurriedly put on her coat and ran to the courtyard wall to have a look. As if peeping in Zhuozhou, she held up a stool and watched.

I saw a group of infantry marching to the gate of the city on the old long street. They are all tall and elite soldiers, silently maintaining the queue, and the worn ring armor on their shoulders seems to be an image in a frontier poem. Because the warriors led by Guo Shao did not do any bad things in Wushan, Lu Lan naturally liked them very much.

The petals on the trees on the street are fluttering down one after another. In the mist like dream and smoke, the long street in the county town is very beautiful and elegant even though it is dilapidated. A troop of troops is not at all obtrusive in it. Lu Lan suddenly remembered Guo Shao's words: We use war to practice and understand the meaning of our own life, and defend beautiful things with iron and blood.
