Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 202 Lantian's Weakness

Zhou Shan was startled when he heard that, but he was relieved immediately.

The ranks of these two gatekeepers made it impossible to know the whereabouts of the prefect. In addition, Lantian was not well-known in Jiangdongfei, and his reputation was not good.

Zhou Shan touched his purse to avoid dealing with this villain, just because he didn't have to make trouble for himself.

"I was ordered by the mistress to bring the son back to Jiangling. Since the prefect Lan is not here, who can take over?" Zhou Shan asked again.

Zhou Shan said she was the mistress, and the two soldiers couldn't make up their minds, because they didn't go to Jiangling to garrison, and they didn't know the entanglement between Sun Shangxiang and Gan Qian, so after the two looked at each other, one of them followed into the mansion According to rumors, generals such as Lan Tian, ​​Gao Shun, and Gan Ning are not in Quanling, but the real master of the fallen army is sitting in the town.

After a while, Gao Yuan walked out of the mansion with strides. After seeing Zhou Shan, he frowned and asked, "Who are you? Why does Mrs. Sun want to pick up the son?"

Seeing that Gao Yuan was dark-skinned and tall, he should be a military officer in the prefect's mansion, so Zhou Shan replied coldly: "The general is so loud that he even questioned the intention of the mistress, even the prefect Lan would not dare to be so contemptuous. What is your identity?"

"I am Gao Yuan, the head of the bodyguard. I don't mean to question Mrs. Sun's intentions, but I was ordered by General Lan to guard the prefect's mansion. Naturally, I must be loyal to my duty." Gao Yuan said sonorously.

Zhou Shan clasped his fists and nodded, "I am Miss Jiangdong's family general. Today, under the order of Miss, I will bring my son back to Jiangling. General Gao can do me a favor."

"I only obey General Lan." Gao Yuan shook his head.

"Jingzhou always belongs to Duke Xuande, right? My young lady is the mistress of Jingzhou. Does Lan Taishou not obey her orders?" Zhou Shan frowned.

"The general is also a soldier, you should know that the military order is like a mountain, sorry." Gao Yuan was unmoved.

"When will Prefect Lan return?" Zhou Shan asked.

Gao Yuan shook his head, "I don't know the general's whereabouts."

"You can't let the mistress wait in Jiangling just because the prefect Lan is not here. How is this the way to be a minister? Is there no one in Quanling?" Zhou Shan's words became fierce.

"The master? That's still there, general, please follow me." Gao Yuan led Zhou Shan to the mansion while speaking.

During Lantian's absence in Quanling, Gao Yuan withdrew many guard posts in the prefect's mansion, and most of the guards in the mansion were concentrated outside the back house where his family members lived.

Zhou Shan walked and observed, and felt that the whole Quanling was very lazy, except for the corridor leading to the back house and a few teams of heavily armored guards at the courtyard gate, the rest looked deserted.

Zhou Shan has his own initial impression of Lantian's governance ability: mediocrity.

Lantian’s governance is not as personal as Zhuge Liang’s. He is able to delegate power as much as possible. Except for frequent inquiries about agricultural affairs that he is good at, most of the government affairs are handed over to county officials. Exercising the people below makes them less tired.

Therefore, among all the major government offices in Quanling, the prefect's mansion is relatively the most deserted place, which made Zhou Shan, a foreigner, misunderstand.

The Quanling Prefect's Mansion is divided into the front yard and the back house, separated by a large garden in the middle. After the two walked into the garden, they could see many young women, and they all nodded to the plateau. A person of color, no wonder Lu Ziheng didn't understand the context, and was cheated of so much money in the end.

The two of them walked through the garden along the corridor, and then went through a hanging flower gate to the back house. Zhou Shan vaguely heard the sound of children playing.

Just as he was about to pass through the hanging flower gate, Gao Yuan suddenly became alert, and then hesitated at the gate.

Zhou Shan looked blank:? ? ?

Gao Yuan pointed to the inner courtyard with his right hand and said, "General Zhou please first."

Zhou Shanxin said why this guy suddenly became polite, he stepped forward and walked in, feeling slightly that something was hanging on the shoe.

Just as Zhou Shan lowered his head to check, a basin of water poured from the sky from the eaves of the door, directly pouring this guy into a drowned chicken, and the three children in the courtyard wall giggled.

"General Gao, this is..." Zhou Shan wiped the water off his face, not knowing what happened.

Gao Yuan spread his arms and said embarrassingly: "This is children playing, and I often fall into the trap."

The moment Zhou Shan turned his head, several children fled northward along the wall, and went directly to the east wing.

Plateau is also relatively speechless. There are more and more children, and they are playing more and more tricks.

The mechanism for pouring water was taught by Lantian. Place a wooden basin filled with water on the eaves of the door, connect special places with thin silk threads, and then hide the silk threads along the doorposts. When passing by, just kick it with your feet and the wooden basin will collapse due to the silk threads. The power of breaking poured down, and the water in the basin fell like a waterfall.

Gao Yuan was counted by this agency several times, and now he is very careful before entering the door. He actually saw the silk thread on the ground just now, but he deliberately didn't remind Zhou Shan.

"I don't know which one is the prince?" Zhou Shan asked curiously.

Gao Gao didn't have time to think, and blurted out: "It's the one that runs the slowest."

Originally, it was A Dou who ran the slowest, but when he was talking, Lan Ji suddenly stopped and made faces at the two of them, Zhou Shan mistook him for Liu Chan.

Zhou Shan nodded lightly, thinking that this world is quite wild, and he planned to snatch it away if he didn't make a deal after a while.

With a prince in hand, this group of mediocre people should be wary.

Gan Qian lives in the East Wing. She has a gentle and kind personality. When the children did something 'bad', they threw themselves into Gan Qian's arms immediately.

Gao Yuan led Zhou Shan to the east wing, and several children swarmed and dispersed in the inner courtyard.

Gao Yuan clasped his fists and saluted: "Ma'am, this is General Zhou, Madam Sun's family general."

Sun Shangxiang's people?Gan Qian looked at Zhou Shan with a puzzled look on her face: "Is there something wrong with the general?"

Zhou Shan didn't know Gan Qian. Seeing her elegant demeanor and fair-skinned appearance, he thought she was Lan Tian's wife, and said to himself, I finally know what your weakness is.

He bowed his hands and said: "Ma'am, at the end of the day, under the order of Miss, I will come to Quanling to pick up my son and return to live in Jiangling. Now the Lan prefect is not at the residence, please do me a favor."

Gan Qian frowned: "The lady wants to pick up A Dou? But why?"

"I don't know this general, but Miss is the mistress of Jingzhou. Since Duke Xuande is not here, her orders are equivalent to those of Mr. Liu Shijun. Madam, please make it easier for me."

"This convenience won't work. Mrs. Sun wants to see Adou and let her come to Quanling by herself." Lu Lingqi came out from the main room on the north side at this time. She heard someone talking in the courtyard just now. She came out curiously but heard such words. Sun Shangxiang Are you still not convinced?
Zhou Shan turned his head and looked, and found another stunning woman, Lan Ziyu really enjoyed the blessings of everyone, her beautiful face was comparable to that of his own family, Zhou Yu's widow Xiao Qiao, but this woman was too ungrateful.

"You don't even give face to Miss?" Zhou Shan's eyes widened angrily.

Lu Lingqi sneered coldly: "Mrs. Sun is so brave. She dared to come to my house to ask for someone. Don't say I don't give her face. Even if her brother Sun Zhongmou comes, I won't give it."
