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

Chapter 445 Zilong, Who Can You Protect When You Arrive in Jiangdong?
On the official road from Jiangxia to Changsha, a cavalry team is galloping.

Inside the carriage.

"I thought you didn't care about me."

It should be a delicate female voice, but Zhang Xingcai's words are inexplicably more heroic, as if she has always maintained confidence.

It was more like she was sure that Guan Lin would find a way to escape for her.

Guan Lin said: "I was wondering if your mother would have such a moment back then. When faced with the difficult choice between the family and Uncle Zhang, she chose the latter without hesitation."

Zhang Xingcai smiled, "I think, there will be... Otherwise, my mother wouldn't always say, 'The love in front of the woodcutter is open, the queen is looking for it!'"

"Is it so nasty?" Guan Lin asked with a smile.

"There are even more sensual ones!" Zhang Xingcai continued, "For example...my mother would write on the woodwood with a pen, 'The heart of the woodcutter meets the husband, and the heart of the concubine is rippling', 'Qingmeng pear blossoms, unforeseen chaijing knot' This kind of words, it can be seen... Fate is always so unclear... On the contrary, when it comes to me, mother is like a pedantic old pedant!"

Yeah... speaking of fate.

Zhang Xingcai thought many times, if she hadn't secretly followed her father to Jingzhou;
If she hadn't met Guan Lin at her best age;
If it wasn't for her father to keep her by Guan Lin's side as a "guard";
Where will her future go?
Did she get married in a marriage arranged by her mother?
Then just stay in the boudoir, looking forward to your return every day, do you want to be a little girl?
Compared to this…

What Zhang Xingcai yearns for more is the life of "Mulan". She is heroic and capable, who says women are not as good as men.

With this in mind, Zhang Xingcai went on to say: "If it wasn't for the 'Mulan Song' play that you and Mr. Wang Can arranged, I'm afraid I really didn't have the determination to disobey my mother and escape from her..."

In fact, Zhang Xingcai wanted to say.

——"If it wasn't for meeting you, who would have known that a woman could live such a wonderful life?Who says women are inferior to men? 』

It was Zhang Xingcai who said that, but Guan Lin was silent, and he said "baji".

Zhang Xingcai was curious and asked quickly: "What are you thinking about?"

"I was wondering if I kidnapped you like Zhuo Wenjun eloped with Sima Xiangru in the past? But Zhuo Wenjun doesn't have an elder brother with strong martial arts skills. If your elder brother finds out, you run away with me." Now, then maybe they will hunt me down to the ends of the earth with the Zhangba Snake Spear!"

The elder brother of Zhang Xingcai mentioned by Guan Lin is Zhang Bao...

According to the records in ancient books, it seems that he is a reckless man even more reckless than Mr. Zhang...

Thinking of him, Guan Lin was somewhat apprehensive.

"Dare he?"

Before Guan Lin finished speaking, Zhang Xingcai blurted out, as carefree as always.

But then she thought that her mother had said that girls should be more reserved, so she quickly changed her words: "I mean, my eldest brother is not such an unreasonable person... But I didn't expect that Mrs. Huang would help us!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Xingcai suddenly thought of something, "Where are we going? Is it okay for you to leave Jiangxia? You won't have to hide because of me?"

"No, it's just... right now, there are more important things than staying in Jiangxia!" Guan Lin looked out the window, and the scenery that flashed before his eyes was constantly changing.

Next, he explained to Zhang Xingcai the purpose of their journey south this time.

When I heard——Save A Dou!
Zhang Xingcai couldn't help but exclaimed, "You mean, Auntie is going to rob Adou to Jiangdong... and then Jiangdong will use 'Adou' as a threat in exchange for Jingzhou? You want to save brother Adou from auntie?"

As Zhang Xingcai learned about the entire operation, she couldn't help but be surprised and exclaimed.

This…

From Zhang Xingcai's perspective, this action was simply incredible.

She was surprised and said: "Mrs. Sun... that's our aunt and the mistress of General Zuo's mansion. Although she is not A Dou's biological mother, according to her status, she is A Dou's aunt. How could... my nephew was saved from his aunt?" Did you leave Brother Adou?"

What aunt?What brother A Dou?
Guan Lin could not help but whisper in his heart.

——"That meow is a femme fatale and a 'stupid'..."

—— "Especially that 'fool', who is the kind who is sold and counts the money!" 』

"Don't forget, this Mrs. Sun, in addition to being our aunt and the mistress of General Zuo's mansion, she is also the princess of Jiangdong, the daughter of Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian, the younger sister of the little overlord Sun Bofu, and the daughter of Soochow Wu. My sword fairy is Jiangnan's Gongyao Ji, do you think our uncle is looking at a 60-year-old, our aunt in her 20s will choose our uncle? Or, choose her glorious Jiangdong?"

Following Guan Lin's words.

Zhang Xingcai was taken aback...

It seemed that she was moved a little bit.

But she still has too many doubts in her heart, but Guan Linsu is extremely accurate in seeing people, even if it is people and things thousands of miles away, he can always accurately predict them.

Zhang Xingcai dared not believe his words.

Then...

Zhang Xingcai raised a new question, "What if my aunt doesn't let me?"

"It's very simple..." Guan Lin replied seriously: "Then grab -"

what…

Zhang Xingcai was frightened.

at this time.

"Tat-tat--"

On the official road, a horse galloped in the direction of Anlu City in Jiangxia. It was Guan Lin's messenger.

When he saw Guan Lin's horse team, he hurried to the side of the carriage and revealed his identity.

Guan Lin stopped the cavalry...

Get off the carriage and listen to his report quietly.

"Sir, there are two urgent reports. One is from Mr. Han Xuan. Now Mrs. Sun and her party are at the 'Luohan Village' on the banks of the Daodao River in Changsha County. Mr. Han Xuan successfully blocked Mrs. Sun's fleet for five days, but it has reached its limit. I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't be able to stop it."

"Secondly, Mrs. Sun sent a letter to Soochow, asking Soochow to send a ship to Changsha to respond. According to the report from Tanma, Soochow has dispatched [-] warships from Yiyang to Changsha County..."

This…

Hearing these two pieces of news, Guan Lin's heart couldn't help but twitch deeply.

The situation was developing faster... and more urgently than he had imagined.

In fact, it has reached the point where there is no time to spare.

"The speed of the carriage is still too slow -" Guan Lin couldn't help but sigh.

At the current rate, the day lilies will be cold by the time we reach "Luohan Village" in Changsha.

At the same time, Guan Lin is self-aware, even if he abandons his car and rides his horse, his equestrian skills... are not enough to reach Changsha within tomorrow.

But... the most urgent thing now is to tell General Zilong the seriousness of the problem.

Zhao Yun has always been a person who is cruel to the enemy, but extremely soft-hearted to the friendly army and his own people.

Sun Shangxiang’s purpose is to kidnap Adou!

If he fights his mind, I'm afraid the upright General Zilong may not be able to catch him!

Thinking of this, Guan Lin's expression became more serious.

Looking at Guan Lin's bitter expression, Zhang Xingcai immediately sensed what Guan Lin was worried about, "If... it's urgent for six hundred miles, then let me go..."

"Ah..." Guan Lin was taken aback.

But Zhang Xingcai said: "I am light, and I can change horses less along the way, which saves time. As for... the [-]-mile rush, I can do it!"

riding?

Guan Lin really had no chance to test Zhang Xingcai's riding skills.

However, at this time, since she invited Ying, she was somewhat sure.

"you…"

"Leave it to me. It's just that I'm stupid. I'm afraid I won't be able to remember what you said. It's better...you can write it on letterhead and let me hand it over to the key person."

Following Zhang Xingcai's words... Guan Lin hesitated for a moment, then nodded solemnly.

"it is good…"

With a promise, he quickly ordered someone to fetch a stool, a simple table, and a pen and paper, and then quickly wrote, Zhang Xingcai polished the ink for Guan Lin skillfully.

For a while, spring was full of vibrancy, and on the thin green grass, Guan Lin swiped the brush and Zhang Xingcai rubbed the ink...

Gathered into a particularly fresh picture.

Within a quarter of an hour, Guan Lin finished writing the letter. He put the letter into a bamboo tube and handed it to Zhang Xingcai.

Zhang Xingcai took it carefully, while Guan Lin instructed: "This letter must be handed over to General Zilong. If General Zilong needs soldiers and horses to help him, then use this..."

Guan Lin handed another soldier talisman to Zhang Xingcai.

Zhang Xingcai asked in surprise, "Yunqi, why do you have Jingnan's soldier talisman?"

Guan Lin didn't bother to explain: "Don't worry about so much. You only need to know that whether it is Laodao River or Luohan Village, I have hidden some people there in advance to prepare for emergencies. These people are not Jingzhou soldiers." , they only listen to me!”

Following Guan Lin's words, Zhang Xingcai stopped asking questions.

However, she could feel from Guan Lin's expression that the rescue of "A Dou" this time was bound to be more important and urgent than she imagined.

Immediately, Zhang Xingcai chose two horses.

Several guards also chose two horses each...

The reason why there are two horses per person is to change rides on the road, which is only used when rushing for six hundred miles.

"Get it—"

"Tat-tat--"

Accompanied by the neighing of horses and the sound of hooves, a group of knights roared away. Like a whirlwind, they only stayed in Guan Lin's sight for a very short time before disappearing into the official road ahead.

at this time…

"Son..."

Zhuge Ke received two flying pigeons from a nearby posthouse.

He untied the letterheads from Feige's feet respectively, and handed them to Guan Lin in a hurry.

Guan Lin unfolded it and saw that one of them was from Jiaozhou. "The fleet is ready, ambushing in the Laodao River, ready to attack at any time—"

The second one came from Anlu City.

"Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Xiahou, under the escort of General Huang Zhong, also drove towards Changsha on fast horses. The speed was extremely fast——"

There are two pieces of information in a row, the first one is okay, as Guan Lin expected.

The second one makes a lot of sense...

Obediently, abduct his daughter away, and see how anxious this mother is!

...

...

Changsha County, beside the Laodao River, Luohan Village.

In a luxurious courtyard, Sun Shangxiang was questioning Han Xuan, "Mr. Han is a senior, and I am a junior. It stands to reason that I shouldn't say these things, but...you first say that there are strong winds and waves, and then that there are no ships. In the end, all the water thieves came out." Alright... Our fleet has been stranded here for five days in a row, what are you talking about? When will this lady be able to leave and return to Soochow?"

This one.

Standing in front of Sun Shangxiang was not only Han Xuan, but also Gong Zhi. Under Han Xuan's leadership, Gong Zhi also became much smarter. The two were in Jingnan... standing in the "big net" of Guan Lin. core figures.

He is also responsible for the communication between Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, the purchase of armaments, and the trade of merchants.

It is true that, as Sun Shangxiang said, Han Xuan stopped Sun Shangxiang's fleet for five days for various reasons.

And these are what Guan Lin wrote to Han Xuan and asked him to do it.

Others don't know what Sun Shangxiang is thinking, but Guan Lin knows it all.

However, due to the opponent's identity and alliance with Sun Liu, many things could not be made clear... According to Guan Lin's original request to Han Xuan, it was to delay Sun Shangxiang's fleet for ten days.

However, it seems... there is no longer any delay.

"Ma'am, be safe and don't be impatient..." Han Xuan still looked amiable.

Sun Shangxiang didn't believe his half-word anymore, "My lady speaks lightly, and I don't dare to let Mr. Han worry about returning home. I have received a letter from my brother yesterday. Isn't there a water thief in the Xiangjiang River? Soochow will send thirty A warship is coming to pick me up and Adou, count the time, tomorrow is coming..."

Sun Shangxiang's words are like an ultimatum...

It also made Han Xuan and Gong Zhi's cheeks dark as water.

Han Xuan was still able to hold his breath, but Gong Zhi couldn't hold back any longer, and asked quickly, "Is Mr. Adou going to Jiangdong too?"

Sun Shangxiang was waiting for this sentence, and she immediately questioned her with a merciless tone: "I am the mistress of General Zuo's mansion, and Adou's biological mother is not here, so he is my son... I will take my son back to Jiangdong to visit Grandma? Is there anything inappropriate?"

This…

Yes, Sun Shangxiang is Liu Bei's wife, and Sun Liu is in an alliance, under such circumstances.

Sun Shangxiang's words were no different from Liu Bei's orders, and it was obvious that neither Han Xuan nor Gong Zhi could stop him.

"Ma'am..." Han Xuan spoke again.

"It's useless to say more..." Sun Shangxiang had already turned around, she turned her back to Han Xuan and Gong Zhi, and waved her hand easily, "I don't need you two to worry about my wife's schedule, these days, I would like to thank you for your hospitality Already!"

While speaking, Sun Shangxiang strode out of the room.

But when she walked to the courtyard outside the door, she realized that this was her temporary post house, and immediately turned around, looking at Han Xuan and Gong Zhi meaningfully with her dark eyes.

Han Xuan and Gong Zhi knew what it meant.

Gong Zhi still wanted to argue with reason, but Han Xuan had already surrendered, "The lady rests earlier, and I will leave first..."

"No delivery!"

Sun Shangxiang's words were full of arrogance and unreasonableness.

...

Next to Sun Shangxiang's luxurious mansion, there is a simple villa.

This is where Zhao Yun and a group of guards lived.

At this moment, at a table, Zhao Yun and Han Xuan are sitting opposite each other, and they are old acquaintances...

Back then, Han Xuan couldn't bear the displacement of the people and the suffering of the people, so when he returned to Liu Bei after fighting Guan Yu for a while, it was Zhao Yun who escorted Liu Bei to take over the seal ribbon of Changsha County.

It was Liu Bei who asked Zhao Yun to return the seal and ribbon to Han Xuan again and let him continue to be the governor of Changsha.

Of course, how smart is Han Xuan?
How dare he stay in the prefect position for a long time, so he took the initiative to resign, and then Liu Pan and Liao Li took over.

But there is no doubt that Han Xuan has his reputation and connections after working hard in Changsha County for many years, even Zhao Yun... When facing Han Xuan, he still has a humble attitude of a junior.

Han Xuan got straight to the point, Chen Ming came to...

Nothing less than that, it was Sun Shangxiang who took Adou to Jiangdong.

Only, because of his status, Han Xuan didn't make it clear that this matter was instructed by Guan Lin behind his back.

Zhao Yun was in a dilemma, "Mrs. Sun is the mistress, and she is away from home. Her orders are no different from the master's orders. It's fine if Mr. Adou doesn't want to go to Jiangdong, but if he wants to, I'm not good as a guard stop…"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yun pondered and said: "At most, I can escort Mr. Adou all the time, and send them back together after Mrs. Sun has seen the Empress Dowager Wu."

Zhao Yun still overestimated the friendship of the "Sun Liu Alliance"!

Still underestimated, after the Hefei bet, Soochow's determination to win Jingzhou is inevitable!

Following Zhao Yun's words, Han Xuan exclaimed, "Zilong, you are so confused! You are really in Jiangdong, even if you are seven in and seven out, even if you are the enemy of ten thousand people? Who can you protect?"

This…

Accompanied by Han Xuan's words, Zhao Yun didn't answer, he just lowered his head slightly and pondered for a while.

You must know that the historical "blocking the river to save Adou" was accomplished by Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei. Although it was a joint effort, in fact, without Zhang Fei's instruction, how could Zhao Yun stop it?
It has to be said that Zhao Yun's status is actually no better than Zhang Fei's.

Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's adopted brother, that is, he is a brother, one of his own, and a relative... Although it is not reasonable to block his sister-in-law or his nephew, it is appropriate due to emotion.

But Zhao Yun's identity, he is not Liu Bei's brother-in-law, he is a guard... According to the master and servant, Sun Shangxiang is the mistress, and he is a servant!

How can there be any reason in this world for a servant to block the mistress?

It just so happens that Zhao Yun is a person who attaches great importance to these "rules"...

"General Zilong..." Han Xuan still wanted to persuade.

Zhao Yun raised his eyes at the right time and said in a solemn tone, "Mr. Han, don't worry, even if Adou goes to Jiangdong with his wife, as long as I, Zhao Zilong, am here, not to mention my wife, I will definitely bring Adou back!"

Zhao Yun is a gentleman, he always looks upright, if others do not fail him, he will not fail others first.

For example, when Zhao Yun defeated Guiyang, Guiyang prefect Zhao Fan wanted to dedicate his widowed sister-in-law to Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun said, "I have the same surname as your Zhao Fan, and your brother is just like mine, so it seems inappropriate to marry your sister-in-law." come to refuse.

"Ugh…"

Han Xuan also saw that Zhao Yun was still too decent, so he could only sigh helplessly.

At this moment, Han Xuan felt like he was going to "mess up".

——"Yun Qi, oh Yun Qi, this ten days, old man, I... can't wait any longer! 』

...

...

When Liu Chan happily brought Huang Hao in, Li Jingxiao had been sitting on the bed and crying for a while.

Liu Chan didn't pay attention, and was still walking while smiling, "Sister Jingxiao, sister Jingxiao, draw for me...draw for me."

Suddenly, seeing Li Jingxiao crying, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you? Who bullied you?"

Li Jingxiao remained silent, Liu Chan panicked, and hurriedly said: "Tell me, tell me, if I did something wrong, I will correct it immediately."

Huang Hao knew some reasons, so he said, "My lord, I have heard about this matter."

Liu Chan turned his head and shouted, "Quickly say it!"

Huang Hao explained: "Didn't the young master promise Miss Jingxiao to accompany her to Jiangdong? After Mrs. Sun's permission for this matter, Miss Jingxiao was very happy along the way. But...but...this Changsha is not so happy. Do you know what happened? It caused our fleet to run aground for five days...Miss Jingxiao saw that her home was close at hand, but she couldn't see it, but couldn't touch it. This feeling...who can bear it! "

Liu Chan said: "What's the matter with the officials of Changsha County? Are they going to rebel? Or, I'll go tell my mother, let my mother scold them, let them prepare the ship immediately, and we will leave today."

"Woooo-"

Because of Liu Chan's words, Li Jingxiao cried even harder... While crying, she also softly sang a sad song about missing her hometown.

"Elegy can be regarded as weeping, and distant view can be regarded as returning home."

"I miss my hometown and feel depressed."

"If you want to go home, there is no one, and if you want to cross the river, there is no boat. You can't talk about your thoughts, and the wheels turn in your intestines."

Liu Chan, who has never been interested in poetry, couldn't help but praise Li Jingxiao's poems, "Sister Jingxiao's singing is so beautiful...especially the last line, which made her feel extremely painful, like a wheel turning in the intestines, with bursts of colic." , even I... also feel this feeling of returning home!"

at this time…

Another servant walked in quickly and whispered something in Liu Chan's ear.

Liu Chan was still sentimental a moment ago, but at this moment he burst into laughter, "Sister Jingxiao, don't worry, it was my mother who sent someone to tell me that we won't send us a boat to cross the river. The boat is here to pick us up, and we can leave tomorrow...Sister Jingxiao can also return to her hometown!"

Speaking of this, Li Jingxiao said aggrievedly, "Really? Can I really go back? Will the young master go back with me?"

Huang Hao said sadly at the side, "Master loves the girl, how can he make the girl sad? Look, our son knows that he loves the girl!"

"Of course." Liu Chan patted his chest, "I was wondering if I should prepare anything when I go to sister Jingxiao's house for the first time? Otherwise, wouldn't it be rude?"

Where is this still the young man who is sleepy all day long?
At this moment, Liu Chan's eyes were round and round... as shrewd as a little tiger!
