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

Chapter 347 What does it mean--repay every kindness, and pay back every grudge?

As Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, the third younger brother, can have such a view, and can "see him with admiration for three days after farewell", his mood is very happy, and it cannot be added.

The third brother is no longer the reckless general who could get drunk and throw Xuzhou away.

This allows Liu Bei, who is very short of talents and lacks trustworthy talents, to take a long breath again.

Farewell to Shibai for three days, there are details in the rough, it is really a huge surprise!
"What book did the third brother read recently? Can he be so diligent? Is it "Sun Tzu's Art of War"?"

The reason why Liu Bei asked...

It's because, in the letter with his second brother Guan Yu some time ago, Liu Bei asked if his second brother always reads Spring and Autumn at night, and Guan Yu's answer surprised Liu Bei.

——"Chunqiu Zuozhuan tells about the righteousness of the monarchy, but in extraordinary times, extraordinary things should be done. In troubled times, the righteousness of the monarchy alone cannot survive. Before righteousness, you should know the deceitful ways of soldiers. Therefore, brother Yu recently Reading "Spring and Autumn" and changing to "Sun Tzu's Art of War" has benefited a lot!"

It is precisely because of Guan Yu's words that Liu Bei felt that he could use the strategy of "cheat death to make money in Xiangfan". Considering that the third brother Zhang Fei also came back from Jingzhou, Liu Bei wondered whether the third brother would follow suit. The second brother started reading "Sun Tzu's Art of War"!
only…

"Ah..." Hearing "Sun Tzu's Art of War", Zhang Fei scratched his head directly, "I don't read those... the books I read... Hehe, don't tell the big brother, wait until I lead the troops to take the head of Zhang He. After that, I will recommend this book to my eldest brother!"

Hearing that Zhang Fei was so confident.

Liu Bei inexplicably felt a different kind of peace of mind. He looked at Fazheng and asked for his opinion.

Fazheng hurriedly cupped his hands: "The three generals are so confident, my lord should give him the opportunity to make great contributions..."

Good friend Fazheng said so, it can be regarded as the dust has settled...

Liu Bei immediately ordered Zhang Fei: "Third brother, I will give you [-] elite soldiers first, and you will go ahead and make a surprise attack in the direction of Nawakou. This Wakou is related to whether you can lock the exit of Bameng Mountain. Xiaozhi and I are doing a full set of acting. I will march in the direction of Yiling first, and when I receive the letter from my second brother, I will immediately turn around and go directly to Jiangzhou, and then I will supply you with additional troops and horses, so that you can guard the exit of Bameng Mountain!"

"What more soldiers and horses are there!" Zhang Fei showed a disdainful expression for Zhang He: "Surprise raids on the enemy army are expensive and elite, and ten thousand elite soldiers are enough! When Wakou is captured, I will be there Dig deep trenches at the foot of Mount Bameng, ambush bows and crossbows, and Zhang He will not be able to get down!"

"Okay!" Liu Bei continued to instruct, "According to the arrangement of the third brother just now, I am not worried, but only... the third brother must promise me, don't drink too much! Don't beat the soldiers!"

"It's easy to say, if I don't drink it, I just..." Zhang Fei patted his chest again, and immediately saluted Liu Bei carelessly, and went out excitedly to order soldiers.

Seeing him running out of the barracks, looking like a child who couldn't grow up, Fazheng couldn't help but smile and sigh with emotion. "It's a good thing that the three generals are so confident!"

"Confidence is a good thing, but I'm still worried that he can't help drinking too much." Liu Bei showed a little worry, "My third brother is good at everything, but he likes to whip soldiers when he drinks. In Xuzhou in the past, it was because of this that he got along with Xuzhou. Cao Bao, the leader of the Danyang soldiers, turned against him and was attacked by Nalu Bu in Xuzhou!"

"At this time and at that time..." Fazheng comforted his friend, "The fact that the three generals can say what they just said just now shows that he is by no means a reckless person. Today is not what it used to be. In the face of major events, he must Drinking will not cause trouble! In my opinion... the lord is better to wait for the good news!"

Speaking of this, Fazheng seemed to think of something again: "I only hope that good things will come in pairs, Jingzhou, Sanba... Good news keeps coming, haha..."

Fazheng successfully expressed what Liu Bei said.

Liu Bei said with emotion: "Listening to Xiaozhi's speech is like drinking fine wine, making people intoxicated..."

at this time…

"Cough, cough, cough..." Suddenly, Fazheng's heart felt a sharp pain, and he coughed violently, with one hand covering his heart and the other covering his lips.

This…

Liu Bei was still laughing just now, but because of Fazheng's sudden symptoms, he was startled and hurried to help Fazheng.

He couldn't stop shouting: "Xiaozhi, Xiaozhi..."

But as Fazheng coughed, the severe pain came and went quickly... Fazheng seemed to be relieved suddenly, "My lord, I'm fine." Fazheng raised his head, this time he Coughed up a little more blood, but not much...

Having said that, he himself knows best about his body.

He could tell that the root cause of his illness didn't come from the lungs, but more like the sharp pain in the internal organs caused by the heart.

"Xiao Zhi's symptoms are not the first time!" Liu Bei hurriedly turned to call the medical officer.

Fazheng waved his hand, "I have seen all the famous doctors in Sichuan, but found nothing...Maybe, as they said, it's just an occasional cough, mild typhoid fever, and too much thinking! My lord, there is nothing to worry about."

"Alas..." Liu Bei sighed deeply, not knowing what to say for a while.

But Fazheng suddenly thought of something, or in other words, he deliberately changed the subject to divert Liu Bei's thoughts from his injury to other places, "My lord, I suddenly remembered something. Last time, my lord mentioned that those who took refuge in Dongzhou Among the celebrities, there are people who criticize the lord in private, secretly seduce people, and want to do something wrong... I went to check, and there is indeed such a thing, and I also found out some lists..."

Speaking of this, Fazheng's eyes suddenly turned cold on his weak face, "However, these people have been eliminated by me in the name of revenge, my lord no longer needs to worry about them!"

As Fazheng said, maybe Liu Bei told him the original intention...

Just let Fazheng pay attention to these people. After all, Fazheng is the absolute leader of the Dongzhou faction!

But in Fazheng's ears, that meant something else.

Who dares to criticize, dare to wait for him all his life, and waited so hard for this "like-smelling" good friend who wants to do something wrong, how can Fazheng tolerate it?

His eyes can't tolerate half a grain of sand that would threaten his good friend Liu Bei!

People in the world always say that Fazheng is filial and upright, but this person is neither "filial" nor "straight".

But who knows, the "vengeance" that Fazheng repays is to get rid of those "people" who cannot be eliminated on the face of Liu Bei, and the "favor" that Fazheng repays is to reward those "people" who cannot be seen on the cards for Liu Bei. lackey"!
This is also the more important value of Fazheng's strategy, for Liu Bei, and for Shu Han...!
According to Guan Lin's analysis, as long as the law is right, the Jingzhou faction and the Dongzhou faction will not break up, Meng Da will not rebel, and Zhuge Liang's deadly enemy Li Yan will not be able to stand up!

"Xiaozhi..." Hearing Fazheng's words, Liu Bei's eyes suddenly became moist, and his tone was filled with tears, "Nothing else is important, I only want Xiaozhi to be healthy..."

While speaking, crystal clear tears rolled down, dripped on Fazheng's arm, dripped on his clothes, and dripped into his heart.

Let his heart, the heart that removes all obstacles for good friends, become more and more firm!
...

...

Bashu, military division general's mansion.

Xia Houjuan left the mansion, got into the carriage, and walked slowly to the mansion of General Cheqi, which was Zhang Fei's mansion.

Huang Yueying, who was still veiled, personally sent her to the carriage, then ran back quickly, and came to Zhuge Liang again.

This year's Zhuge Liang is only 36 years old, and Huang Yueying is two years younger than him. This is the age when both men and women tend to become mature and rational.

Seeing Huang Yueying enter the door, Zhuge Liang took the initiative to ask: "Mrs. Cai just said that Mrs. Xiahou wanted to see her son-in-law, and Mrs. wanted to go to Mianshui Villa to see Mr. Yuezhang... I have always wanted to ask, but it is not good to be in front of Mrs. Xiahou." Let me ask you, is Madam thinking about the father-in-law in Mianshui Villa? Or is she thinking about the workshops that have sprung up everywhere in the Mianshui Villa... and the ingenious and magical weapons?"

"I can't hide it from Kong Ming..." Huang Yueying smiled, even though she was alone with Zhuge Liang, she didn't let go of the black veil covering her face, as if...she still had a heart for the not-so-beautiful birthmark on her cheek.

"Kong Ming doesn't think..." Huang Yueying went on to say, "These miraculous weapons, and this Guan Yunqi... are a little too magical? I'm not boasting. I boast that since I learned the Mohist mechanics, I have mastered the craftsmanship of the world." I can't compete with my skills, but... I really saw these weapons made by Guan Lin, and I just realized why there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people!"

Zhuge Liang is most aware of his wife's conceit in the field of craftsmanship.

And for his wife to say these words, it can be seen that... Guan Lin's works really amazed his wife!
Zhuge Liang's voice was very soft: "If it weren't for his amazing skills, how could he win the favor of the three generals, and how could he lure my wife, who is full of pride in the field of craftsmanship, back to Jingzhou?"

In fact, Zhuge Liang also wanted to say that it is not only his wife who wants to go to Jingzhou, but also Jiangling.

If he, Zhuge Liang, can escape, why doesn't he want to go back to Jingzhou to see this magical boy who can propose the establishment of a commercial bureau to restrain businessmen; propose the abolition of poll tax to unite the people; !
For him, Zhuge Liang is also yearning for him!

This is not a teaching between a master and a disciple, but a heart-to-heart chat between two "wise men", not limited to the situation, not limited to the military, not limited to government affairs... chatting all over the world.

In the final analysis, Zhuge Liang was too interested in this magical boy.

It's not that he doesn't accept Guan Lin as his disciple...

But I can't accept it, and I dare not accept it!
"Recently, the letter sent back by my father specifically mentioned..." Huang Yueying continued in a timely manner: "It seems that this young master Yunqi has drawn another miraculous ordnance?"

"What?" Zhuge Liang was curious.

"Qin Nu! That Qin Nu that has been lost for hundreds of years!"

Following Huang Yueying's words, Zhuge Liang was slightly stunned, all his imagination about Qin Nu only existed in books.

It's as if... at this moment, when the "Qin Nu" jumped out of the book, what appeared before his eyes were the arrows all over the sky, covering the sky and covering the sun, and even the hope of revitalizing the Han Dynasty!

Look at Zhuge Liang in a daze...

Huang Yueying smiled, "Will your husband allow us to go?"

"You're going, how can I stop it? Besides... Yuan Xun is still there. Since he adopted him, he has been busy and managed in Jingzhou due to the situation. As his mother, you should also go and see this child."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It's just that you and Mrs. Xiahou are both women, and this trip is thousands of miles away. You need a general who is skilled in martial arts and knows the way to escort you!"

"Kong Ming has already been selected?" Huang Yueying asked without thinking.

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, "Huang Hansheng (Huang Zhong) is old general Huang. He has lived in Jingnan for a long time and is more familiar with the roads. Besides, Yunqi mostly makes bows and crossbows. General Huang is very good at piercing Yang with a hundred steps. Let him meet Yunqi , may be of great benefit!"

This time it was Huang Yueying who nodded.

With Huang Zhong escorting him, he will be safe...

But Zhuge Liang suddenly thought of something again, "When I mentioned Guan Yunqi, I suddenly thought of something. When I sent Yang Yi to test his knowledge in the past, he asked Yang Yi to ask me instead!"

Test knowledge, ask the master?
Is there any reason for an apprentice to ask a master?
This time, Huang Yueying became even more curious about Guan Lin, and sure enough... From here, she could see the taste of the "rebellious son" in the rumors, and she quickly asked: "What's the problem?"

Zhuge Liang gently lifted the feather fan, and opened his mouth with a smile: "He asked me how this feather fan came from!"

As soon as this remark came out, Huang Yueying smiled, "No one knows this question better than me..."

As she was talking, she walked out with a smile. Zhuge Liang raised his head to see that it was getting late, and then looked at the back of his wife Huang Yueying, who was elongated by the lights. He wanted to call Huang Yueying to stop... He thought that he should do something that only a couple can do .

But thinking of his stepson Zhuge Yuanxun, thinking of so many military and government affairs...

He withdrew his hand again.

he comforts himself

——"I already have a son, so... it can be regarded as having a son! 』

——"It's just that Mrs. Wrong is still suffering from gossip and so much pressure! 』

As Zhuge Liang said...

Huang Yueying didn't just have a birthmark on her cheek, it affected her beauty!
The most important thing... Huang Yueying is barren.

This is a disease, just in this era, there is no cure!
According to historical records...

Zhuge Zhan and Zhuge Guo were not born to Huang Yueying, but to Zhuge Liang's concubine.

In Zhuge Liang’s family letter back to his brother Zhuge Jin, he mentioned about the concubine’s room... that’s because his adopted son Zhuge Qiao died in the army, and Huang Yueying had no heirs, so Zhuge Liang asked her After agreeing, she accepted a concubine and gave birth to a son!
certainly…

Today's Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying did not think of the topic of "infertility".

First of all, they can be regarded as respecting each other as guests, and they seldom share the same room.

Secondly, they each have their own affairs, and they all have the great ideal of "recovering the Central Plains"...

People in this era, especially people like Zhuge Liang, everything about him will appear insignificant in front of ideals!
...

...

After Sima Yi came out of Cao Cao's room, he didn't go back. He waited in the courtyard outside the main hall.

Cao Zhi is also there.

Obviously...they both know that the strategy they proposed...is a crucial step for the next great Wei, and Wei Gong Cao Cao's decision will not be delayed for too long.

Soon it will all be settled...

And in this courtyard, it seems that because of Cao Zhi's appearance, the Huben soldiers specially brought a brazier, and Cao Zhi had already warmed up leisurely around the brazier.

Seeing Sima Yi, he smiled slightly, still admiring himself coquettishly: "Looking at Zhongda's expression, it's likely that father didn't agree to you right away!"

Sima Yi nodded slightly. In fact, his mood was the most complicated. His position was always vacillating, but when he thought of the poison pill he took, he thought of Hanoi Sima, and he thought that he could not die yet, so he was firm again. a lot.

He shouldn't sacrifice for Wei, he will not sacrifice for anyone, everything he does is for the family...

For the "Clan Alliance" he is in!
call…

Seeing Cao Zhi, Sima Yi heaved a sigh of relief, and sat down beside the brazier to enjoy the fire, "As Mr. Zijian expected...the prime minister still has to think about it!"

Cao Zhi was puzzled: "I'm curious, what method did Zhong Da propose for my elder brother?"

Sima Yi replied: "Let me guess first, Mr. Zijian's proposal?"

"You know my proposal?"

"Is it Lianwu against Jingzhou?"

Cao Zhi was surprised that Sima Yi had peeped into his mind, "How do you know?"

Sima Yi calmly said, "Following Guan Lin's father and son... no, following Guan Lin's crossbow, sidecar, incendiary pot, and this powerful crossbow, Prime Minister Cao would naturally be afraid of him, but How could Sun Quan, the leader of Soochow, not be afraid of him? Great Wei is not his opponent, and Soochow is not... This is obvious!"

"Mr. Zijian's proposal to unite Wu against Jingzhou is enough to prove...Mr. Zijian's mentality has improved a lot over the years! It's just...the prime minister may not accept this price!"

Sima Yi actually thought of this too, but he even thought of Soochow's conditions...

If he unites Wu to fight against Jingzhou, then Sun Quan will definitely propose that he wants Huainan...he won't stop until he wins Shouchun?
So the question is, can Cao Cao let Shouchun out?
impossible!
The Shouchunhuai River is the barrier to the south of the Jiaoying area. Once it is lost...the price will be more serious than losing Xiangfan!

Of course, if it was Sima Yi, if he hadn't taken Guan Lin's "poison", he would propose a similar but completely different one to Cao Zhi.

It's not about uniting Wu against Jingzhou, but signing a secret armistice agreement with Soochow, allowing Soochow to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight!
This is what Sun Quan will definitely accept.

It's just... Sima Yi still cherishes himself more, he must first find a way to complete the task assigned to him by Guan Lin, get the antidote... and then find a way to escape from Guan Lin's control!

This is, Cao Zhi opened his mouth and said: "Zhongda said mine, what is Zhongda's proposal?"

"Moving the capital..." Sima Yi didn't hide anything... "The prime minister will become king sooner or later, and the capital of Great Wei will definitely be Luoyang!"

Speaking of this, Cao Zhi squinted at Sima Yi. At this moment, he deeply realized how powerful this man in front of him is.
To move the capital, you must know that if you move the capital now, you can only move to Luoyang!

Then, Luoyang was built by the second elder brother Cao Pi, no doubt... there, Cao Zhi and the second elder brother will compete for the heir, and he will undergo a more severe test!

It was not until this moment that Cao Zhi realized how much this Sima Yi had secretly helped his second brother over the years!
Cao Zhi said with emotion: "I only hate Zhongda, you helped the second brother..."

Sima Yi said indifferently: "Many things are beyond my control. When it comes to the dispute between the princes of the Great Wei, it is no longer for me to decide which side to stand on...Since the death of Lord Xun Ling, the leader of the clan has been replaced by Zhong Siqing, but Zhong Siqing also He is getting old, who will succeed him next? The Hongnong Yang family was the most promising in the past, and it was Yang Dezu who assisted Mr. Zijian...but now...I, Sima Yi, have no choice but to take this step!"

"Forget it..." Cao Zhi pursed his lips and smiled. He thought that his second brother Cao Pi had Sima Yi, but he also had a secret weapon...he was also in Luoyang...

Perhaps in the future, this secret weapon can give the second brother a fatal blow!
Thinking of this, Cao Zhi felt somewhat relieved.

"You haven't won for the second brother, and I haven't lost yet. We're here to warm up and wait for who's plan father will adopt! Let's see...Which of us is roasting on the fire!"

—Is it on the fire?
Sima Yi clicked his mouth... He was roasted on the fire long ago, ever since he returned from Jiangxia.

At this moment, Cheng Yu came over with a few soldiers.

It suddenly became quiet here, and only the slight crackling sound in the brazier could be heard. This was Duke Wei's final decision.

Cheng Yu slowly unfolded the edict in his hand with a heavy voice.

"The prime minister decided—"
