Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 216 If you want this country, I will give it to you
All kinds of chrysanthemums are placed in the courtyard of the post house at this moment, competing for beauty.

Wanling chrysanthemum with pistil like lotus pod;
There are bright yellow and round chrysanthemums;
There is a big and pure sympathy chrysanthemum;
There are peach blossom chrysanthemum, Muxiu chrysanthemum, Guan Qunfang, doctor yellow, big golden bell, big golden yellow, etc.

Large pieces of chrysanthemum petals fell to the ground, and the ground was golden.

Standing in this sea of ​​chrysanthemums, Guan Lin felt like "the chrysanthemums are broken and the ground is full of injuries", and his smile gradually became "yellow".

I don't know if it's because the Double Ninth Festival hasn't been long yet.

Even what is placed on the table is "chrysanthemum wine" sent by officials at all levels.

As Guan Lin walked, Mi Yang explained to him.

"The meritorious Cao Yu in the county said that a cluster of chrysanthemums and flowers is friendship, just like the character of the Fourth Prince Guan."

"Wang Duwei in the county said that chrysanthemums don't compete too much. This is because they are not greedy, and they are not different from the character of Guan Sigong."

"The thief in the county, Cao Junli, said that chrysanthemums are for people to appreciate, which is called being kind to others. The fourth son of Guan is eclectic, and being kind to others is just like this!"

"Even the governor of Liao Li sent chrysanthemums, saying that the chrysanthemums were unpredictable, and gave them to Guan Sigong, because Guan Sigong is full of knowledge."

Ha ha…

Still full of economics, Guan Lin said "hehe" when he heard this.

On the other hand, Zhang Xingcai was overjoyed when he saw this chrysanthemum forest...

Girls just like flowers.

Ever since I was a child, I have never seen so many chrysanthemums!

Immediately, he picked a special red chrysanthemum and stuck it in his hair. According to legend, it can ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters.

He put another yellow one behind his ear and didn't forget to ask Guan Lin. "Brother Yunqi? Does it look good?"

Guan Lin didn't have the slightest interest in it, so he said perfunctorily, "It looks good...it looks good."

But thinking about it.

——"Is it true that I am full of knowledge?So, you guys use these worthless chrysanthemums to fool me? 』

——"Which cadre can't stand such a test? 』

Thinking of this, Guan Lin couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Look, the officials in Changsha County are of high standard. With this message, sending a chrysanthemum or flower can give you the taste of gold..."

Mi Yang didn't notice it, and continued to say, "They mean that the reason why they gave chrysanthemums is because chrysanthemums like 'dew cold and frost cold', and they tend to bloom in late autumn, but they are generally good-natured like Mr. Yunqi." ..."

Did Mi Yang introduce these "gifts" in a foolish and simple manner?

Zhuge Ke had already heard the irony in Guan Lin's words.

"Haha." He immediately laughed and said, "Shouldn't they all be chrysanthemums? There are so many people in this world? Could it be that there is no one with a lower character? I prefer those who follow others?"

don't say...

Guan Lin found that sometimes it was inconvenient for him to say what he said.

Zhuge Ke is a quick-witted kid, so it's good for him to say it.

Immediately, Guan Lin raised his eyes, as if he was more interested in the so-called "following power" mentioned by Zhuge Ke.

this…

Mi Yang suddenly thought of something, "If you follow the trend, there is really a gift..."

While talking, Mi Yang led Guan Lin and the others to the other side of the courtyard. It was still an ordinary table, and there was still a "high and clean" chrysanthemum on the table...

But in Guan Lin's eyes, as soon as this pot of "chrysanthemum" came out, all the chrysanthemums in the entire courtyard... were eclipsed in an instant.

Nothing more.

This is because this is a pot of precious "Golden Silk Chrysanthemum".

Of course, no matter how precious this "Golden Silk Emperor Chrysanthemum" is, it is just a chrysanthemum!

However, what is extraordinary about it... is that its entire body, every stamen, and every petal are carved out of gold.

This "gold", ah no, it's the "golden silk emperor chrysanthemum" that is ingeniously shaped...

The flower shape is round and full.

The bunches of golden petals, like hydrangeas, are extraordinarily bright and colorful under the sunlight.

What came to his face was the breath of "local tyrant gold", which made Guan Lin a little intoxicated for a while.

He couldn't help thinking to himself:
——"This is what it looks like to test the cadres! 』

He hurriedly asked: "Luo Geng (Mi Yang)...which cadre is this...ah no, which official from Changsha County sent this?"

Mi Yang hurriedly said: "This one was given by Han Xuan, the five officials of Changsha County. Now, he and the other officials who gave gifts are all waiting outside the door, waiting to see the Fourth Young Master?"

"Huh? Han Xuan?"

"He's not dead—"

Guan Lin blurted out these words subconsciously...

only…

As soon as these words came out, Mi Yang was startled.

——"Fourth Young Master, what does this mean?Is this Han Xuan to die?Or... Fourth Young Master wants him to die? 』

Without waiting for him to ask...

Guan Lin was already lost in thought.

Indeed, the name Han Xuan, upon hearing it at first, is quite pervasive.

Isn't this the guy who was chopped up by his subordinates when his father "Guan Gong fought Changsha"?

And the name "Han Xuan" gave everyone the impression that he was a bad person to the bone.

"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" wrote that he "was quick-tempered all his life, lighter than killing, and everyone hated him!"

In later generations, in various film and television works of the Three Kingdoms, he was also portrayed as a villain, a brutal and incompetent prince, which made people itch with hatred.

It can be said that it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!

But in fact, according to the records of "Three Kingdoms", Guan Gong came to Changsha, but he hasn't played two rounds yet?
Han Xuan directly surrendered in Kaesong.

And for a long time after the surrender, he still served as the prefect of Changsha.

The tomb of Han Xuan is located in Changjun Middle School, one of the four famous schools in Changsha.

Its "Tomb of Han Xuan" also corrected the name of Han Xuan:
——"Xuan and the three counties all surrendered, the soldiers were bloodless, and the people were safe and secure. It can be said that they understand the principles of adversity and obedience, and have the virtue of safety."

From this point of view...

Han Xuan's image was completely subverted!

He is a good prefect who is deeply loved by the people, loves the people like a son, and knows current affairs well!
——"Then... this pure gold imperial chrysanthemum?What's the meaning? 』

Take this to test the cadres?

What is your heart?

Guan Lin immediately added a question: "Luo Geng, you are good at mathematics, how much grain is this pot of 'Golden Silk Emperor Chrysanthemum' worth?"

Mi Yang thought for a while, and after a short and complicated calculation process, he replied: "In terms of the weight of gold, it is at most [-] Dendrobium, which is not too much, but the 'Golden Silk Emperor Chrysanthemum' is expensive because of its carving. In terms of craftsmanship, such workmanship... such craftsmanship, I am afraid that it has already far exceeded its original value, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a tribute to the emperor. Looking at it this way... I am afraid it is worth at least [-] hu of grain."

"One hundred thousand dendrobium..." Guan Lin held his chin.

Liao Hua couldn't help exclaiming, "What a great handwriting!"

Zhuge Ke also said with emotion: "Lieutenant Liao was wrong. It is the former Changsha prefect who is now the "Five Senses" Mr. Han...to see Mr. Yunqi, he spent such a lot of money!"

Zhuge Ke's words are to explain the facts, but also to remind...

Remind Guan Lin that "meeting gifts" are so precious... This Han Xuan must ask Guan Lin for something!

Guan Lin also thought of this level, he nodded slightly, and said to himself:
"If not, let's see each other!"

For a moment, Guan Lin realized that he had fallen, that he had not withstood the test of "gold".

However, what Guan Lin was more interested in was, why did Han Xuan come to see him?
With Guan Lin's stereotype.

If a person can use "one hundred thousand dendrobium" as a meeting gift, then this business must start with "one million dendrobium"!
"Forget about other chrysanthemums." Guan Lin added again: "Just this Han Xuan, invite him to a side room for a drink, just say... I, Guan Lin, invite him to drink chrysanthemum wine!"

...

...

Hefei City, dark clouds overwhelm the city... The tragic offensive and defensive battle has lasted for a day and a night.

It was difficult for Cao's army to defend, and it was not easy for Soochow's army to attack.

Finally—the sound of "Dangdangdang" gong resounded...

For a whole day and night, the siege of the city like a tide came to an end with the Eastern Wu Army Mingjin withdrawing troops.

In the first siege battle, Sun Quan failed to conquer as he wished!

Outside Hefei…

Nuo Da's Wu Jun's big tent was swallowed up by the shady, Jiangdong soldiers who were already exhausted from attacking the city during the day, but one by one forced their sleepy eyes to cheer up one after another, they dared not sleep!
Even if their leader Sun Quan told them to sleep, they dared not sleep.

The last time 10 people were "chug" in their sleep...

Today's Jiangdong soldiers have learned to be smart. They know that night... is the most dangerous and deadly.

At this moment, a sand table was placed in the big tent of the Chinese army, and Hefei City stood in the middle of the sand table. Sun Quan couldn't figure it out...he had sent out all the generals who could fight.

It was Gan Ning who attacked the east gate;

It was Jiang Qin who attacked the west gate;

It was Xu Sheng who attacked the south gate;

He personally led the troops to attack the North City Gate, and even went to the battlefield in person as the "Marquis of Wu" to beat the drums in person.

Can…

I don't know why, this city of Hefei just, just, just, just can't be taken down.

Every city gate is like welded and cast steel.

——Sturdy as a rock, impregnable!
Today's Sun Quan was in tears, and he felt that he was about to lose his grip.

He was pissed!

His mentality is already on the verge of collapse.

Last time, 10 people led by him were suddenly killed, causing the tragedy of Soochow children stopping crying.

But that's because Zhang Liao and his Shanxi soldiers are really capable of fighting...

It was also Sun Quan who underestimated the enemy carelessly.

But... this time.

——Zhang Liao is not here, nor are the Shanxi soldiers.

——even, he, Sun Quan, and all the generals dared not be careless.

Whether it is from the psychological level or the action, he attaches great importance to this city of Hefei.

Pay attention to every guard in the city.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Li Dian and Le Jin's intelligence...their military characteristics, their habits, and the types of arms they are good at are all listed in the case in detail, and Sun Quan can already memorize them fluently!

But...however...

However, this city of Hefei was like a curse from heaven, and Sun Quan couldn't get through it no matter what.

At this moment, Sun Quan looked gloomy, and he looked at the sand table and let out a sigh of "ah".

"Why? Why can't you beat it?"

A heavy voice came out of the mouth of the 33-year-old Soochow King, and for a moment, he felt like he was about to lose control.

He felt like he was going to pee!

At this moment, outside the lonely tent of the Chinese army, a voice suddenly came to mind.

"General Lu...Let me wait to pass it on."

"I have something urgent to report to you, hurry up!"

Following the voice outside the door, Sun Quan recognized the voice, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he groaned softly.

"Why did Ziming come—"

At this moment, his emerald green eyeballs rolled quickly, and he thought to himself:
——"Isn't Ziming investigating Lu Boyan?Why are you here suddenly? 』

Thinking so, Sun Quan ordered loudly.

"Let Ziming come in."

Only then will the guard let it go...

Lu Meng quickly stepped into the big tent, knelt down on one knee, and immediately gave a military salute: "My lord..."

"Why did Ziming come to Hefei?" Sun Quan hurriedly helped up the former "Ameng under Wu" and today his most trusted general.

But the moment he lifted it up, Sun Quan's tone suddenly became gloomy, and he asked a question.

"Did Lu Boyan check it out—"

The reason for asking this.

It was Lu Meng's attention that Guan Lin inadvertently mentioned "Lvcheng" in the conversation between Lu Meng and Guan Lin before.

Only Sun Quan, Lu Meng, and Lu Xun knew about the construction of Lu City.

Therefore... under Lu Meng's backstab, Sun Quan became suspicious of Lu Xun.

Ask Lu Meng to investigate Lu Xun and Lu's family, and also pay attention to the progress of Lu Xun's southern expedition.

Sun Quan hoped that Lu Xun would be loyal.

Can…

If he is loyal?Where did the "Lucheng" in Guan Lin's mouth come from?

The words of this Fourth Young Master Guan are definitely not groundless.

Although the truth has not yet been found out, Sun Quan has already had a lot of doubts about Lu Xun, and has even classified Lu Xun as a threat like "Zhou Yu" and "Tai Shici" in his heart.

And people who are often regarded as threats by Sun Quan will end badly!
"My lord..." Lu Meng lowered his voice, "The Lu family is still investigating, but... there is something that the last general has to report to Marquis Wu immediately."

"What's the matter?" Sun Quan's eyes tightened even more, and the emerald green eyes were breathtaking.

"After Lu Xun captured Nanhai County and Cangwu County in Jiaozhou, he stopped marching... This was nothing at first, but a special person suddenly rushed to Jiaozhou."

"Who is it?" Sun Quan asked urgently.

"The late General Bofu's daughter—Sun Ru." Lu Meng blurted out without any concealment. "I don't know if she rushed there privately, or Lu Boyan picked her up, but she left very secretly, as if deliberately concealing the itinerary. If the general hadn't paid special attention to it, he would never have noticed this place."

call…

Lu Meng blurted out his words, and Sun Quan exhaled lightly.

He found that he couldn't sit still anymore, and he began to think while pacing.

——After conquering the South China Sea and Cangwu, no further marching...

Maybe Lu Xun just wanted to rest.

Or maybe he didn't dare to continue to attack, and he didn't dare to eat the entire Jiaozhou!
Sun Quan is a master of checks and balances, how can he fail to see that Lu Xun is a person who has an extremely thorough understanding of the current situation.

"Tai Shici" learned from the past, how dare he become the second "Tai Shici"?

He dared not continue to attack.

And this is nothing.

Can…

He was away on an expedition, but suddenly took his wife away secretly. It happened that his wife was the daughter of Sun Ce, the niece of his Sun Quan...

This is somewhat meaningful.

Seeing Sun Quan's silence, Lu Meng continued: "My lord, do you still remember 'Hongyan'?"

Well…

Lu Meng's words made Sun Quan's emerald green eyes widen overnight.

His emotions seemed to be mobilized all of a sudden, and he was also excited. "What did you say? Wasn't the 'swan goose' already eradicated ten years ago?"

The "swan geese" mentioned by Sun Quan and Lu Meng is a secret group.

These people are complex.

Most of them are civilians and ordinary people who were rescued by the little overlord Sun Bofu...

They joined forces and formed the organization "Swan Goose", with the purpose of investigating the truth about the death of the bully Sun Bofu.

The so-called Jiangdong government announced that the bully Sun Bofu was assassinated by "Xu Gong's three disciples"!

There are too many doubts about this matter, and they don't believe a word.

The meaning of the existence of swan geese is to restore the truth.

Sun Quan used the "swan geese" to confuse people, incite rebellion, and sow dissension as an excuse. Ten years ago, he specially appointed Lu Meng to eliminate them.

It is precisely because of this that in the past ten years, there have been no "swan geese" in Jiangdong!
But tonight, this name was suddenly mentioned by Lu Meng again...

How can we prevent Sun Quan's face from changing drastically?My heart throbbed again and again.

Lu Meng pondered for a while, and continued: "Ten years ago, the 'Hongyan' disappeared in Soochow, but recently there have been faint rumors that the 'Hongyan' exists in particular, and exists in the Cangwu area of ​​Jiaozhou... It seems that for General Bofu They are very persistent and are still investigating secretly."

"What Ziming means..." Sun Quan's face has become extremely gloomy, "You mean Sun Ru... No, it's Lu Boyan, it's the Lu family, it's related to this 'swan goose'!"

"It's just a guess at the moment..." Lu Meng said truthfully: "Maybe it's a coincidence, but...how can there be such a coincidence in the world? Then the fourth son of Guan can tell the 'Lu Cheng' that only the lord, Bo Yan, and the last general know." With regard to Xingjian, Lu Boyan stopped marching after capturing Cangwu, and Sun Ru sneaked into Jiaozhou secretly at this time... and Hongyan was secretly investigating in Jiaozhou..."

Before Lu Meng could finish speaking.

Sun Quan almost ran away. "Check, this Lu Boyan, this Sun Ru, this Hongyan, let Gu investigate to the end—"

Sun Quan's mood seemed to erupt in an instant, his hands were trembling, and tremblingly he stuffed the sword called "Baili" into Lu Meng's hand, "This sword is called Baili, it was created by Gu with a stone from heaven. Forge one of the six swords, seeing this sword is like seeing an orphan!"

Sun Quan's voice became more condensed and gloomy.

"Gu gave this sword to Ziming. During the investigation of this matter, Ziming was like a lonely person. Don't worry about Ziming. Whether it is Lu Xun, Sun Ru, or other families involved, anyone who involves 'Swan Goose', you have punished these people for Gu! You have punished these families!"

Speaking of this, Sun Quan patted Lu Meng's shoulder heavily.

"God knows this matter, you know and I know..."

"I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than...don't let one go!"

At this moment, Sun Quan's words were extremely cold.

On the other hand, Lu Meng took over Sun Quan's saber with great sincerity... Kneeling down on one knee, he replied heavily:
- "Here!"

In the past, Lu Meng was just investigating.

So now, with the "Baili" sword in hand, Lu Meng is not just investigating, this is a real "knife in the back"!

The so-called - backstab!
Lu Meng is so good at it!
...

Not long after, Lu Meng walked out of the central army tent holding the "Baili Sword".

For a while, only Sun Quan was left in the army tent.

As for Sun Quan at this moment, how could he still be in the mood to pay attention to the sand table, the city of Hefei, and the battle.

A "swan goose", no... behind the "swan goose", the truth of his brother's assassination has filled him deeply...

He seemed to be completely out of strength, sitting on the bamboo mat extremely weakly.

"call--"

"call--"

The heavy exhalation sounded continuously.

It seemed that the scene 15 years ago appeared before his eyes again.

It was the fifth day of May in the fifth year of Jian'an.

His elder brother, the little overlord Sun Ce, was hunting in Dantu Mountain, and was shot in the face by an assassin with an arrow!
It was three months after the treatment, Sun Ce's condition improved, he sat up from the bed alone, and fetched the mirror.

He used to be "beautiful", but he was also called "Mei Zhoulang" - the most beautiful man in Jiangdong!
But now, all that remained of his cheeks was ugliness.

later…

Rumor has it that Sun Ce saw his own ugly face in the mirror, and he was so enraged that his condition worsened...and eventually he died.

But is this really the case?

The middle truth.

Only on that day, Sun Quan who was in the room knew clearly.

The eldest brother Sun Ce picked up the mirror, but what he saw was not his own cheek at all.

But...but in the mirror, his dearest—brother!

Sun Quanyou remembered that the elder brother was so enraged that he vomited blood in the last three sentences.

--"You came?"

——"Why such a calculation?"

——"If you want this country, I will give it to you!"
