My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 475

"Second brother, are you feeling better?"

In the early morning, Zhang Fei walked into the small courtyard of Guan Yu's home with two big pig legs, and saw him making tea and drinking alone in the courtyard.

Guan Yu held a copy of "Spring and Autumn" in his hand and read it with relish. Hearing this, he squinted his eyes and frowned, "Why did you bring food here again?"

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Sister asked me to send it, and said to make soup for Brother Zhou to replenish blood."

Guan Yu nodded slightly when he heard this.

He didn't care, but the little brother who was rescued had to be mended, the blood was bleeding too much.

The two people who followed Zhou Cang to hunt up the mountain were completely cold by the time they found it.

According to Zhou Cang's intention, Guan Yu buried the two of them directly in the mountain, with no monument or tomb, only a small mound.

As for Zhou Cang, it is said that he has no father and no mother, so if you want to follow him, then follow him.

Now Guan Yu is the most important artillery general under Lu Bu's command. As the team continues to grow, it is time to lack people.

Zhang Fei handed the pork legs to the maid who was sweeping, and then sat down in front of Guan Yu.

"Second brother, is the injury on your hand okay?"

Zhang Fei looked at Guan Yu's gauze-wrapped palm. He had seen with his own eyes that day that the bones of his fingers were pierced with flesh and blood.

Guan Yu shook his head slightly when he heard the words, and said, "It's okay, Doctor Hua said that it is enough to rest for a hundred days, and the Chinese New Year is just around the corner."

Only then did Zhang Fei heave a sigh of relief. The operation of the artillery is "steady".

"That's good. You say you are true. If you save people, you save them. You almost put your own future on the line."

Hearing Zhang Fei's 'screaming', Guan Yu's heart warmed, knowing that this kid was caring about him.

"I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just thought that the bear was not good enough. It was just that I didn't grasp the strength of the last knife and stabbed the animal's spine. Fortunately, it was only a little flesh wound."

Zhang Fei chuckled, took out a copy of "Big Han Dragon and Tiger List" from his arms, and said, "Second brother said it easily, that Xiong Wei is the king of the mountain in that area, good fellow, seven or eight men have given up their strength Only then did I carry it back to the city."

Guan Yu froze for a moment, glanced sideways, and couldn't help but be attracted by the cover of this issue.

Just because the illustration on the cover is none other than Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, and of course, that huge bear.

Guan Yu blushed. Others were on the "Hot Search" because of his military exploits. Fortunately, he was on the Hot Search after he killed a bear.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Just now along the way, what I heard the most is the words of the second brother hunting bears. Everyone said that the second brother is very good. If he hadn't been injured, this year's martial arts conference might win the championship in one fell swoop. .”

Guan Yu replied with a twist of his beard: "It's nothing more than killing a bear. The passers-by have no experience, don't you understand? Don't talk about others, even if you meet this bear, you can easily catch it."

Zhang Fei laughed, and said humbly: "That's not necessarily true, I don't know about others, but I'm sure I can't beat the second brother, so I guess I'll be on a [-]-[-] basis with this Xiong Wei."

"The third brother is humble."

Guan Yu chuckled lightly, and then asked, "Come on, come here so early, can't you really give me pork legs?"

When Zhang Fei heard this, the smile on his face instantly subsided.

There was silence for a while.

Zhang Fei said, "Second Brother, I heard from my sister that Du Liniang is two months pregnant."

Guan Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, and the "Spring and Autumn" in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

Seeing this, Zhang Fei hurriedly bent down to pick it up and put it aside. He raised his eyes to look at Guan Yu, and found that the second brother's face was gloomy and ugly.

Hesitate for a moment.

Zhang Fei persuaded him, "Second brother, why don't you have a wife? Not to mention that Du Liniang is a married woman, she is a rich family and an official in the city. As long as the second brother speaks out, those ladies will line up to let you choose."

Guan Yu raised his phoenix eyes and looked at the clear sky. The warm winter sun shone on his body, and he didn't seem to feel the slightest warmth.

There was a long silence.

Guan Yu said faintly: "After the Chinese New Year, I will be thirty one, that's all, that's all..."

Zhang Fei opened his mouth, wanting to comfort him.

Guan Yu raised his hand to interrupt him, and continued, "Actually, I had a wife and a son in the early years, but because I committed a crime by murdering someone, I was afraid of hurting them. I haven't returned to Xie County to look for relatives these years."

When Zhang Fei heard this, he frowned and said, "Xie County, isn't that in the territory of Hedong? Why didn't Second Brother go and look for it?"

Guan Yu shook his head and explained: "Who said that I haven't looked for it? When I followed my elder brother to recruit soldiers and buy horses, I also went to look for it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anyone. I heard from the neighbors that not long after I left. The couple also left the county, and their whereabouts are still unknown."

Zhang Fei's expression froze. It's not easy to find someone in this era. If you miss it, it may be a matter of a lifetime.

Seeing his disappointed face, Guan Yu suddenly laughed.

Zhang Fei looked puzzled.

Guan Yu picked up the "Big Han Dragon and Tiger List" on the table, and said, "I didn't know what to do before, but I just remembered today. Maybe this thing can help me."

When Zhang Fei heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Yes, second brother can publish the missing person notice!"

Guan Yu smiled slightly and nodded yes.

···
the other side.

The Zhao Mansion has just moved into the household.

Zhao Feng practiced his arm strength in the yard with a spear in his hand, and a beautiful woman stood quietly watching on the porch.

A few rays of warm sunlight came in through the mats in front of the porch, reflected in the girl's bright eyes, and reflected Zhao Feng's rock-like figure.

After a long time.

Zhao Feng finished his work and stood still. Seeing this, the girl hurriedly sent a fragrant towel to wipe off the sweat on her body.

"I'll do it myself." Zhao Feng was not used to being served like this, so he reached out to get a towel.

I don't want the woman to dodge cleverly, and put a smile on her face, and said softly: "Let the concubine come."

Zhao Feng nodded helplessly, accepting it with peace of mind.

"Did Zilong get up?"

"Little uncle drank a lot of wine last night, let him sleep a little longer."

While wringing out the sweat stains on the towel, the girl signaled the maid behind her to quickly bring warming soup.

After Zhao Feng drank it all, he frowned and said, "Zilong is not young anymore. A few days ago, Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Fan both revealed the idea of ​​getting married. Now you are my eldest wife of Mrs. Zhao. What do you want to do about these things?" What to worry about."

When the girl heard the words, her cheeks were slightly flushed, she nodded and said: "Don't worry, my husband, I will go to inquire about the tutors of the two younger sisters when I turn around."

Zhao Feng let out a satisfied 'hmm'.

Bang!
Suddenly, a strange sound came from the backyard.

Zhao Feng's expression changed, he raised his spear and rushed towards the backyard.

But before he ran far, he heard a heroic scolding: "Zhao Zilong, if you dare to betray me, I will kill you first, and then I will die in front of you."

Zhao Feng paused, and stood at the gate of Xiyuan with black lines all over his face, neither entering nor retreating for a while.

Not long after, I saw Zhao Yun running out of the house in a long gown in a state of embarrassment.

Behind him was a woman in a green coat and holding two knives.

Not Ma Teng's daughter Ma Yunlu, who else?
"Ma Yunlu, are you crazy? I slept soundly. How dare you sneak into the house of a man like me when you are a woman to be married?"

Zhao Yun stepped on the snow with bare feet, and he shivered from the cold. He still felt cold even though he was wrapped tightly in only a single coat.

Ma Yunlu frowned coldly, and asked angrily: "Say, are you going to marry the little lady of the Fan family?"

Zhao Yun drank a lot of wine last night, rubbed his temples, frowned and said, "What are you talking about, Miss Fan?"

Ma Yunlu thought he was pretending to be stupid, so he rushed over with two knives in hand.

"Pretend, I'll let you pretend, Zhao Zilong, I didn't expect you to be such a person, and you agreed that I would not marry you."

Ma Yunlu learned from his father and brother, and danced vigorously with two knives in one hand. Although the knives were sharp, he cleverly avoided Zhao Yun's vital points.

Zhao Zilong dodged a few steps, and finally stood still, allowing Ma Yunlu to hack.

Seeing this, Zhao Feng outside the courtyard gate rushed to rescue him, but a pair of jade hands behind him held him back.

"Husband, wait a minute."

Zhao Feng was stopped in such a way that it was too late to rescue him. He looked anxiously at Ma Yunlu's swords that were slashing at his younger brother.

Then, in the next scene, Zhao Feng, a tough guy, couldn't be dealt with.

With a plop, Ma Yunlu dropped his swords and threw himself directly into Zhao Yun's arms.

"Idiot, you idiot, why don't you hide, what if it really hurts you, you are mad at me."

Zhao Yun hugged Ma Yunlu, looked tenderly at the tearful man in his arms, and said with a smile: "I knew you were reluctant to hurt me. If that's the case, why should I hide? It's better to let you chop a few knives. As long as you can be happy."

"Bad guy, you'll talk nice things to coax me." Ma Yunlu cried and laughed, beating Zhao Yun's chest lightly with both hands.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Feng was stunned for a moment, and hurried away with his wife.

"This kid, where did he learn these little tricks, one set after another."

"Pfft, husband, it's great that my little uncle has such abilities, and it saves husband from worrying about it, doesn't it?"

Zhao Feng smiled awkwardly, thinking about it too.

Anyway, this kid always wants to marry a wife. This Ma Yunlu is Ma Teng's daughter, and her brother Ma Chao is also his half-disciple. It would be a good thing if Ma Zhao could get married.

Soon.

restaurant.

Wearing white sable brocade fur, Zhao Yun walked in heroically, followed by Ma Yunlu who followed suit.

Seeing Zhao Feng and Yan Xi, Zhao Yun saluted respectfully, "Brother, sister-in-law."

Zhao Feng gave an annoyed 'hmm', looked at the shy Ma Yunlu, and said politely, "Let's sit down and eat something together."

Ma Yunlu hurriedly cupped his fists and said: "I have seen Zhao Dutong and Mrs. Zhao. Yunlu came here uninvited. It is rude. Please forgive me."

Yan Xi got up and walked over, took her into a seat with her hand, and said with a gentle smile: "there are families on the left and right, why are you polite, sit down quickly."

"Thank you ma'am." Ma Yunlu smiled, not politely.

Because of Ma Chao's relationship, she is familiar with Zhao Feng. She is a carefree person, and after being forgiven, she immediately released her nature.

After Zhao Yun also sat down.

Zhao Feng gave his younger brother a cold look, and said in a deep voice: "Your sister-in-law will take someone to Ma's house to ask for gifts later on. During this period, you two should not meet again, so as not to lose courtesy and make people laugh. "

Although he said it to his younger brother, this sentence was said and heard by Ma Yunlu.

The wedding customs in the Central Plains are like this, not as casual as in Xiliang. Unmarried couples cannot meet before the wedding night in the bridal chamber.

"I see." Zhao Yun took a bite out of the fritters with a face of resignation.

Yan Xi took Ma Yunlu to teach her the customs, so as not to make Ma Yunlu break the taboo.

Knowing that the two were not allowed to meet because they wanted to get married, Ma Yunlu was both shy and excited, and nodded repeatedly with a blushing face.

After dinner.

Zhao Feng ordered the housekeeper to send a carriage to take Ma Yunlu home.

Then he called Zhao Yun and came to Dingjunfang in the north of the city.

···
"Zihu, Zilong, you two brothers are here, come in quickly."

In the meeting hall, Xu Ding sat at the head, holding a piece of white paper with the fragrance of ink in his hand.

Xun Yu, who was sitting at the top on the left, said with a smile, "Everyone, take a look at this list. If you have better suggestions, feel free to speak up."

Several youths dressed as clerks distributed the papers they had just transcribed one by one.

"I don't know if Mr. Wei has seen it before?" someone suddenly asked.

Xun Yu heard the words, shook his head with a smile, and said: "Wei Jun is still in Shu, and he won't be able to come back for a while. This list was drawn up by Xun and Tian Situ."

Lu Bu, who was sitting at the top on the right, frowned and said, "I'm a little surprised that so many elites are going to be picked from us at once. In the spring of next year, I want to continue going west. It's time to employ people." .”

When Xun Yu heard the words, he smiled and said nothing.

Xu Shu, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile, "His Royal Highness Liang Wang does not need to worry. Next year, we will increase the supply of firearms in Dingjunfang, which is enough to make up for the shortage of manpower."

Lu Bu heard this and looked at Guan Yu behind him.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and didn't express much, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart.

Zhang Liao frowned and said, "I don't know where we will be transferred to form an army this time?"

Several soldiers who were included in the list all looked curiously at Xu Ding, who was at the top.

Xu Ding Nianxu smiled and said calmly: "The western army went north and merged into the Xuanwu army, the northern army went south and merged into the Qinglong army, the eastern army entered Bashu and joined the Zhuque army, and the southern army marched westward and merged into the Baihu army. military."

The voice just fell.

Lu Bu, Xu Huang, Wu Ze (uncle Sun Ce), Huang Zhong, all of them changed their expressions slightly.

Xu Ding seemed to predict that they would have such a reaction, and then said: "The rotation cycle is three years. After three years, another elite will be drawn from each army, and then dispatched according to this method."

Lu Bu frowned thickly, no matter how stupid he was at this moment, he knew that this was a conspiracy to prevent them from cultivating their confidantes.

Very clever.

Although I don't know if it is Wei Jun's intention, but if it goes smoothly this time, the military power of the four kings with different surnames will undoubtedly be greatly weakened...

Lu Bu looked at Xu Huang and the others. Except for Wu Ze who turned pale, Xu Huang and Huang Zhong all looked indifferent, as if the military power in their hands had been weakened, which was nothing to them.

Thinking about it carefully, Xu Huang and Huang Zhongben are Wei Jun's most trusted generals. They are more loyal to Wei Jun than themselves.

Think about this.

Lu Bu knew that no matter how much he objected, he would be powerless, so he might as well accept it with peace of mind.

Anyway, his daughter is also married to Wei Jun, so he won't let himself suffer too much.

Just like what Xu Shu said just now, if the manpower is gone, firearms will be used to make up for it. This should be the compensation given to them by Wei Jun.

"If you have any objections, you can raise them now, otherwise the military order will not be changed after it is issued."

"My king has no objection." Lu Bu gritted his teeth and replied.

Xu Huang and Huang Zhong also had no objection.

Wu Ze looked at the three of them pitifully, stood up and bowed to Xu Ding, saying: "This matter is so important that Wu cannot make a decision."

Xu Ding glanced at Wu Ze, and said quietly, "King Wu will definitely not object, you are responsible for signing the document."

Wu Ze sighed lightly and bowed his head in agreement.
