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

Chapter 419 Invited by Mr. Xuande, Zen can go to Jing, but Lin can't go to Shu!

——However, the princes of Jiangdong are all in their dreams!
Cao Pi's words made Jiangdong's audience silent, and at the same time, a strong man stood up suddenly, and his roar came out, it was Zhou Tai.

"Bold? If you dare to be rude again, I will kill you!"

While speaking, with a sound of "whoosh", Zhou Tai had already drawn his sword, but Sun Quan scolded, "Back off!"

Zhou Tai withdrew his sword and withdrew, Sun Quan said with a smile, "I hope Mr. Pi will let you know what Wei Gong wants—"

Cao Pi frankly looked around the Eastern Wu officials for a week, smiled first, and then said frankly: "I dare not lie to Marquis Wu. This time, Guan Yu was reborn from a desperate situation, turned around from adversity, captured Wancheng, and shocked Kyushu... all thanks to Shiro Guan According to the plan, Guan Yu's troops in Wancheng are no more than [-], the food supply is only a month old, and the food roads have been blocked!"

"Victory with the advantage of time and place, although there is vigor, but the successor is weak, and our Great Wei can attack and retreat, and can also defend. Even if we are invincible this time, but our Great Wei has a vast land and resources? It is possible to move the imperial capital from Xudu to Luoyang. Or move to Yecheng, what can the Guan family and his son do? But... as the Guan family and his son grow bigger, if one day he targets Soochow? What can Wu Houru do?"

Having said that, Cao Pi paused.

The tone slowed down a bit, but the tone was as serious as ever, "Therefore, this pair of Guan family father and son is just a disease of scabies in my Great Wei, but it is a serious problem in Jiangdong, and the priorities, if you can't tell? Is it not in a dream?"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Sun Quan, Gu Yong and Lu Meng looked at each other.

Even if they were standing at the door, Liu Zhen and Wu Zhi could feel it. Mr. Pi's words directly hit Soochow's weakness, and Cao Pi's demeanor also made them both sincerely admire him.

Who would have thought that Prince Pi, who had always been fearful and cautious under Cao Cao, could calmly deal with the Manchu officials of Soochow just like Zhuge Liang went to Jiangdong when he was fighting with Confucians in the past.

Zhang Zhao was still arguing, "It was clearly the Guan family father and son who drove Cao Cao into a desperate situation, and then sent you to beg for soldiers on behalf of your father. There are such brazen beggars in the world? Ridiculous! Ridiculous!"

Cao Pi could see that Zhang Zhao did not actually represent Sun Quan's meaning.

He even observed that the person Sun Quan looked at...seemingly asking for advice several times was the second among civil servants and the chief among generals, and Cao Pi had seen their portraits.

Know that these two people are Gu Yong and Lu Meng.

The former is the patriarch of the Gu family, the head of the four major families in Wu County;
The latter was the general who temporarily held the military power of Soochow after Lu Su left, and was trusted by Sun Quan.

Immediately, Cao Pi did not speak, but looked at Sun Quan with a smile.

Sure enough, Sun Quan once again exchanged glances with Gu Yong and Lu Meng.

Then, he said loudly: "As expected of the second son of Cao Cao, he has a good mouth, but these words are just like those demonic words to confuse the public. It is just a separation of the alliance between Sun and Liu. How can I be fooled? Detain him and confine him !No one is allowed to see you without Gu's order!"

Cao Pi bowed as if he had seen through Sun Quan's mind.

——"Hehe, he said so, this matter is almost inseparable! 』

With this in mind, Cao Pi still bowed his hands, "This matter is related to Jiangdong's foundation, I still ask Marquis Wu to think twice!"

"Push down!"

Following Sun Quan's voice again, several guards had already escorted Cao Pi down.

After Cao Pi left, Zhang Zhao said angrily, "My lord, Cao Pi's rumors are deceiving everyone..."

Sun Quan smiled wryly, and then murmured in a low voice, "Isn't what he said the truth? Jingzhou, the Guan family father and son...hehe, how dare you let them continue to grow!"

This…

All of a sudden, Zhang Zhao was stunned.

Zhou Xun, who was at the bottom, was also stunned, and deep worry could not help but condense in his eyes.

On the other side, Cao Pi took Liu Zhen and Wu Zhi down Danchi.

Wu Zhi was quick-witted, and whispered in surprise and admiration: "I never thought that what Zihuan said was so convincing and well-founded... This matter is probably done."

Cao Pi still walked steadily, and said in a low voice: "It's thanks to Zhongda's letter, these words, he taught me to say..."

Liu Zhen asked in shock: "Does Zhongda want to destroy the alliance between Sun and Liu?"

He blurted out these words, and suddenly he realized that the voice was louder, and he quickly looked around.

Finding that no one was paying attention here, he let out a long breath.

Cao Pi replied in a low voice: "Zhongda's idea is correct. If we can destroy the alliance between Sun and Liu, then this prince of Wei...no one can take it away from me!"

Wu Zhi was relieved again: "At least now, it seems that this matter is almost inseparable."

Cao Pi couldn't help showing a smile: "Let's wait for Marquis Wu to find us in private? Everything...you have to wait until you defeat Guan Yu before you win!"

This time, Cao Pi is fighting for the son;

Soochow fought to eliminate the threat posed by Jingzhou;
As for Sima Yi, what he was fighting was the chaos in a corner of Jingzhou.

Only in great chaos can he find a way out of Guan Lin's control and find his chance to break the game!
The game is another time across Wei, Shu, and Wu, on the surface and in private...

A game with turbulent waves and dark tides——

...

...

A lamp like a bean.

In the evening, Yang Yi of Jiangling City was writing a book in his room.

"Mr. Xuande said—"

Dip the tip of the pen into an appropriate amount of ink, and under the candlelight, Yang Yi gently waved the brush on the paper, sighing while writing, "Don't blame Xuande Gong, military commander Kong Ming, summoning Yunqi to Bashu is beyond my power. But Jingzhou cannot do without Guan Jiayunqi... I have asked the prefect Mi, Ma Liang and a group of guards one after another... The answers I got are surprisingly consistent, they are all the same, so..."

Yang Yi reluctantly described the situation here in detail.

Including, Guan Lin's prestige in Jingzhou now;
Including the current situation in Jingzhou;
Including just experienced a dangerous battle;

It also includes the increasingly dark and turbulent battlefield after the fall of Wancheng...

These all point to one.

——Liu Chan can go to Jingzhou, but Guan Lin can't go to Bashu!

"Ugh…"

With another deep sigh, Yang Yi continued writing.

——"If you send Mr. Chan to Jingzhou, the etiquette is inconsistent, but if you call Yunqi to Bashu, the situation in Jingzhou is in danger. Yi thinks hard, but can't understand the law. He can only write to Xuandegong and Kong Ming. How to choose?"Would you like to show me? 』

Finished writing this last sentence...

Yang Yi suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if he had thrown back this heavy burden to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, let them decide whether to call or not, to send or not to send!

at this time.

The sound of "treading" footsteps came, and Ma Liang stepped into the room. He came in a hurry, as if he had gotten wind of something.

Sure enough, when he saw the letterhead on the table, he quickly asked:

"Duke Wei is sending a letter to the lord?"

"Yes!" Yang Yi didn't hide it from Ma Liang, "Ji Chang, you also know the purpose of my coming, this job...is really difficult!"

"Haha..." Ma Liang laughed out loud, he didn't answer, but turned to other topics: "Do you know what I, Jiangling, will do next?"

Yang Yi shook her head with a dazed expression.

Ma Liang asked again: "Then, do you know where the Liannu, the sidecar, the eight-ox crossbow, the Qin crossbow, and even today's flying balls that have repeatedly made Niwei suffer in the past six months? Where did they all come from?"

"Who doesn't know about this?" Yang Yi replied, "From Mianshui Villa on the outskirts of Jiangling City...the whole Jiangling City, no, there is no one in Jingzhou who doesn't know about it."

"So..." Ma Liang explained: "Mianshui Villa is an arsenal, but such an arsenal hangs alone outside Jiangling City, isn't it dangerous?"

Speaking of this, Ma Liang paused, and continued, "So, the next task, the new city has been built, we need to move Mianshui Villa into the new city of Jiangling City, so that the arsenal will be safe, and according to Yunqi According to the order of the government, one Mianshui Villa is no longer enough to supply Jingzhou’s military supplies, and another Mianshui Villa will be built in the new city of Changsha County to produce military industry! This is the overall situation of Jingzhou!”

Yang Yi could feel the importance of this matter, but she was still puzzled.

"Then... what are you doing with Mr. Yunqi going to Bashu?"

"It has a lot to do with it!" Ma Liang continued to explain, "The blueprints for the military supplies manufactured in the Mianshui Villa were provided by Yunqi, and the money, food and materials used to manufacture the military supplies in the villa were also provided by Yunqi!"

"Part of the money and food is the paper that is not wet with blood in the papermaking workshop. These are sold to the northern border and then exchanged for money and materials from northern merchants. The general Fu Shiren who is in charge here is Yunqi's eldest brother. The other part is obtained from Jiaozhou, because of Yunqi...Jiaozhou has contact with Jingzhou, and Changsha County is the transit point!"

"In addition to the development, use, and equipment of these ordnance... and those soldiers and horses who are loyal to Yunqi, the Nanyang Army, the Lu Family Army, Yunqi is the only one who is convinced by them, so... tell me, can he go? ? Once he leaves... many things in the entire Jingzhou will come to a standstill!"

this time...

It's not just the answer I got from Jiangling Wenwu.

Through these established actions and facts... Undoubtedly, Yang Yi felt more deeply that Guan Lin is indispensable to Jingzhou. This feeling is like Zhuge's military advisor and his lord Liu Bei "like a fish in water"...

"Ah..." However, this kind of thinking still made Yang Yi sigh, "It's still a common topic, my lord...you're not young anymore..."

"I know." Ma Liang pondered for a moment before opening his mouth: "So, I'm sure my lord will definitely send Mr. Chan to Jingzhou! Let him learn the truth by Yunqi's side and teach him to solve his doubts—"

"But..." Yang Yi still wanted to put forward his theory.

But Ma Liang was already one step ahead. "Duke Wei, you still underestimated the friendship between the lord and the second general? In the old days, the second general was in Cao Ying, and after killing Yan Liang and punishing Wen Chou, the lord learned his whereabouts and sent Sun Qian to bring a letter to him. Seeing him, do you know what was written in that letter?"

"What did you write?" Yang Yi asked curiously.

Ma Liang chanted lightly: "Bei and your step have formed an alliance from Taoyuan, and vowed to die together. Why is it against the law now, to cut grace and judge righteousness? You must want to gain fame and wealth, and I am willing to sacrifice the head of Bei to fulfill it." Gong. The book is not exhaustive, and the death awaits—”

Ma Liang recited the letter almost word for word.

This is Liu Bei's letter to Guan Yu in Cao Ying.

The meaning is very clear——Yun Chang, if you want to be rich, then I, Liu Bei, am willing to give you my head to fulfill your credit!

To know…

Under the friendship of Taoyuan, Liu Bei's words are not just written.

If Liu Bei and Guan Yu really met each other on the battlefield, even if the Qinglong Yanyue knife was only an inch away from his neck, Liu Bei would not move or blink his eyes.

This is "Taoyuan Friendship"!
call…

It was precisely because of these words that Yang Yi pursed his lips, and he could suddenly feel Liu Bei's mood and decision.

Otherwise... he would not entrust the entire Jingzhou to Guan Yu, and he never doubted it.

"Ji Chang said that because he was sure... Mr. Chan will come to Jingzhou."

"Haha..." Ma Liang laughed, "You still don't understand, brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang are willing to die for each other, let alone their son? Yun Qi...he is the son of the second general and the lord son of me!"

Obedient…

Yang Yi froze in place, pondering in his heart.

Dare to love, Taoyuan became sworn brothers, not only born in the same year, the same month, the same day, and died in the same year, the same month, the same day, even the son...has become shared.

and many more…

Suddenly, Yang Yi suddenly thought of something.

After going through a strange brain circuit, he blurted out and asked without thinking: "Ji Chang, do you think...is there a possibility that Mr. Chan cannot inherit the great cause, so...my lord negotiated with the second general, and the Yunqi Adopted to the lord, he will inherit the great business, so..."

No wonder Yang Yi thought so.

This coquettish operation is not new in this era.

For example, the Runan Yuan family of four generations and three lords, Yuan Shao was adopted by his father Yuan Feng to his elder brother and became his eldest brother's son.

Otherwise, a concubine is still the daughter of a maidservant, let alone accumulate contacts and reputation in the early days, and establish "friends on the run" to help party members.

A concubine status... not even qualified to attend the Imperial Academy, none of the party officials and scholar-bureaucrats would play with him!
The road of life was blocked early in the morning!

Yang Yi's thoughts are very pure. Didn't Ma Liang say that Liu, Guan, and Zhang are like a family?

Then Liu Chan can't do it, Guan Lin will go up, isn't everyone happy?

But... Ma Liang.

He was also surprised by Yang Yi's strange brain circuit.

He wanted to open his mouth to refute a few words, but he still felt that this idea was a bit out of line, but as this idea went through his mind again, he actually felt... This idea is not impossible!

But just as he was about to elaborate, Ma Liang shook his head again, and suddenly he thought of someone.

Not Liu Chan...

In fact, based on Liu Chan's performance these years, he probably doesn't have much idea about this "big position".

But if Liu Chan is eliminated and Guan Lin is chosen, one person is bound to be unhappy.

——Liu Feng!
That's right, this is also the stepson of the lord Liu Bei!
In this era, adopted sons may not be eligible to inherit the throne, but stepchildren are equivalent to biological sons and are eligible.

That is to say, Liu Feng is the number one heir without considering his close relatives.

From this perspective, it is easy for Guan Lin to surpass Liu Chan, Liu Bei's biological son, but it is difficult to surpass Liu Feng, his stepson and eldest son——

call…

For a moment, Ma Liang could not help but let out a deep breath.

Yang Yi noticed his weird expression, and quickly asked: "Why? Ji Chang thinks it's not right? Isn't that what the Yuan family in Runan did? Then Yuan Shao became the eldest son of the Yuan family and inherited the family business! "

"Let's not talk about this for now..." Ma Liang still thought of the difficulties of Guan Lin's superiority. He shook his head and reminded: "I shouldn't worry about this matter, so please write back to the lord first, and see if the lord will understand Zen." The son sent it."

say so...

But it is hard for Ma Liang not to think in the direction of this "exotic brain circuit"——

——"Yunqi, maybe...he really has the possibility to be the stepson of Duke Xuande! 』

——"Yunqi, if he becomes the eldest son, rejuvenates the Han Dynasty, ends this war, and restores the world to a peaceful and prosperous world... then there will be more hope!" 』

——"Perhaps because of this, Duke Xuande and the Second General would also consider doing this, right? 』

According to Ma Liang...

Liu Bei's "virtue" and Liu Bei's "benevolence" to all people in the world may be more important than his "flesh and blood"!

What's more, this is the second brother's son!
...

...

"This is edamame tofu, people say, Huizhou edamame...you won't vomit even if you slap it!"

In Jianye City, inside the iconic celadon pavilion.

Gu Yongzheng sat in front of Cao Pi, Liu Zhen, and Wu Zhi, introducing them to the local dishes on the table in front of them.

"This hairy tofu is also called 'mouldy tofu', but it is a famous local dish. It has a few inches of white hair on the surface. According to the color, it can be divided into four types: tiger fur, mouse hair, rabbit hair, and cotton hair. Come...Try it, this is Rat hair tofu, the one with the tongue off."

Cao Pi took a sip, and it was so delicious that his eyebrows raised.

However, he quickly put down the spoon again, squinting his eyes, "I have heard for a long time that the four major families of 'Gu Lu Zhu Zhang' Wu Jun, the four major families of 'Yu Wei Kong Xie' in Kuaiji, and the entire eight major families of Jiangdong, the Gu family is ranked first. Patriarch Gu came here in person, maybe it’s not to give this hairy tofu?”

"Haha..." Gu Yong laughed, and put away the tofu while laughing, Zhuan'er put a map on the table, "The old man is here to ask for me, what is Duke Wei's plan?"

Cao Pi said slowly. "Fight Guan Yu together to form an alliance, to rest each other's troops to support the people..."

Gu Yong paused for a moment, "Then... what is Duke Wei's sincerity?"

Cao Pi puffed up his chest: "We co-provided Wang Shengju, and my father sent me, the 'eldest son', to come here in person. Isn't this my father's sincerity?"

"Not enough!" Gu Yong clapped his hands while talking...

The door was wide open, and a refined man was escorted in by two guards from Wu Kingdom.

The man was very surprised when he saw Cao Pi, and quickly exclaimed, "Why was the second son born here?"

Cao Pi also exclaimed, "General Li?"

This person is Li Dian.

After Li Dian was captured in the battle of Hefei in the past, he has been detained in Wujun.

You know, Li Dian has [-] clansmen who moved into Yecheng, and he would rather die than surrender, so...he was imprisoned like this.

No one interrogated, and no one cared, as if this person no longer existed in this world.

Speaking of which, the jailer gave Li Dian a meal last night. When Li Dian was escorted out of prison today, he thought he was going to the guillotine. He never thought that he would see Cao Pi here.

"Untie..." Gu Yong ordered directly.

The guards behind him quickly untied Li Dian.

Li Dian hurriedly walked in front of Cao Pi, Cao Pi gave him a look, and Li Dian stood behind him.

Only then did Gu Yong open his mouth: "This is the sincerity of my Soochow, what does Mr. Pi think?"

The implication is that Wei's sincerity seems to be much shorter than this "substantial" Li Dian.

Cao Pi pursed his lips, and gradually narrowed his eyes. He remembered a piece of information that Sima Yi mentioned in his letter yesterday.

So he opened his mouth and said:
"Thinking about it, Marquis Wu and Patriarch Gu don't know where our biggest opponent, the arsenal owned by Guan Lin in Jiangling City, and the money for making ordnance in Mianshui Villa come from?"

Well…

It's about those miraculous ordnance, it's about the flying ball that can fly in the sky, Gu Yong suddenly raised his spirits.

Cao Pi did not speak, but pointed to Jiaozhou, and then rowed along Jiaozhou's Nanhai County, Cangwu County, Yulin County... and then to Jiaozhi.

Then took advantage of the situation and raised it up, rowing directly to Changsha County.

Only then did Cao Pi stop the sliding of his fingers, and heavily clicked on the location of "Changsha" city on the map...

His voice came out at the same time.

——"Mianshui Villa, that's how the Guanlin Armory got its money!"

——"The surprise attack on Changsha broke the connection between Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, and it is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice. The road to ordnance manufacturing in Mianshui Villa will also be broken!"

——"Join, Marquis Wu can unite with our Great Wei, seek Jiangling again, retreat...without the protection of Changsha, is Jiaozhou still the opponent of Marquis Wu? And this...is my Great Wei, and even the eldest son of my Great Wei Cao Pi's sincerity!"

At this moment, Cao Pi's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's!
...
