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

"——How can this not make sense? How can it not make sense!"

"——Gu has done so much, and Gu has treated them well, but He Qi and Jiang Qin surrendered to the city, betraying Gu... Can they be worthy of Gu? Gu wants to kill them... kill them -"

Late at night, an extremely angry roar came from Wuhou's palace.

For a time, all the rooms in the palace were lit with candles, and the footsteps of countless soldiers resounded, giving the whole place a sense of imminent rain.

It was an unusually cold morning in Jianye City.

The hot breath exhaled from his mouth turned into white mist in the blink of an eye, floating in the long silent street.

Lu Meng was ordered late at night and had already surrounded the houses of "Jiang Qin, He Qi" and other generals in advance to ensure that no one was leaked. Now, he wanted to close the net. In an emergency...such betrayers will be severely punished. This way Can serve as a warning to others.

He walked calmly on the stone road, holding the three-foot long sword on his waist with his right hand. The black fish scale armor made of thousands of iron pieces on his body "clattered" with his footsteps. Behind him were a hundred Sun Quan's relatives in the darkness. Soldiers - tigers riding under the chariot!
Although these 100 people were silent, an aura of killing was uncontrollably exuding from the neat array.

Here we are...a relatively ordinary-looking house.

The servant at the door came to greet him tremblingly and asked, "I wonder what's going on with Master Jun?"

"Is this the residence of General Jiang Qin?" Lu Meng's tone was quite polite.

"Yes...My lord is..."

"I am Lu Meng, the right commander of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. On the order of the Lord, I am here to search for important criminals!"

what…

The servant was startled, "Did the right governor make a mistake? How could there be a wanted criminal in the general's house?"

Lu Meng overthrew the earth-colored servant, strode into the courtyard, and shouted: "Jiang Qin betrayed Soochow, surrendered the city to the Jingzhou rebels, and this governor, under the orders of the lord, will work hard to arrest everyone in the Jiang family..."

Hundreds of dismounted tiger riders raised their halberds and rushed into the courtyard, quickly controlling the situation.

The servants and maids in the yard had no idea of ​​resistance and huddled in the corner shivering.

This scene... Lu Meng has seen it too many times.

In Soochow, as long as Sun Quan betrays Sun Quan, unless it is a top wealthy family, the rest of the small and medium-sized families... even if the whole family is destroyed, it will only happen overnight, let alone just one general?
A "clang" sound...

Lu Meng pulled out his long sword and stood calmly in the courtyard with the sword. He was waiting... for the specific figures after the arrest. He was also waiting for the specific figures to be reported from other houses that were closing the net at the same time to arrest important criminals.

This is how it is in this era. One person commits a crime and implicates the entire clan...

This is understandable.

However, within the time of making an appointment for a cup of tea, his subordinates reported one after another.

"General...only a few servants and servants were captured in Jiang Qin's mansion. Their families were secretly sent out a few days ago..."

"General, the same is true in He Qi's mansion..."

"General, the same is true in the mansions of other generals in Lujiang..."

"General, even the family members in Zhang Changshi's mansion were moved away in advance, leaving only unsuspecting servants!"

Well…

Undoubtedly, this discovery further confirmed the truth of Lujiang's surrender. Jiang Qin and He Qi seemed to have planned it in advance... They had been preparing for the surrender of Lujiang City a few days ago.

——'Okay, I don't believe it yet! 』

——"Humph, I never thought... it would be really wasted... the Lord's trust in them!" 』

With full of anger, Lu Meng angrily ordered: "Take them all to prison and torture them for interrogation..."

"promise!"

A group of soldiers have begun to put shackles on the remaining servants and female envoys...

At this moment, a person knelt down in front of Lu Meng with a "pop" sound. This person's name was Jiang San, and he was Jiang Qin's nephew. Because he had just missed the forced relocation of his family during the past few days, he had just returned. He was surrounded by officers and soldiers.

Now that he heard about his uncle's betrayal, he couldn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. He hugged Lu Meng's legs with both hands and said bitterly: "My uncle has served Soochow all his life, fighting in the east and west. He has always taken the lead... regardless of life and death? He... His life belongs to Soochow, he... everything about him belongs to Soochow? He... he will not surrender, let alone betray... I hope... I hope the right inspector will investigate this matter and clear my uncle's name! "

"Uncle?" Lu Meng repeated this title, like Jiang San's words, he only heard this sentence.

It seemed that this title gave him the joy of catching a fish that slipped through the net.

He raised his hand expressionlessly, his sword energy was sharp, and a cold light flashed...

The nephew of Jiang Qin in front of him is dead!
The long sword was returned to its sheath, and Lu Meng watched as a junior high school officer beside him put Jiang San's head into a wooden box.

At this time, a man with disheveled hair and a sharp sword suddenly rushed out of the room. He screamed and rushed towards Lu Meng. Before the man could get close, the Huben guard beside Lu Meng raised his halberd and stabbed the man to the ground. .

Lu Meng frowned and stepped forward to check, and found that the person lying in a pool of blood turned out to be an old woman in her sixties. Lu Meng directly ordered, "Check, find out her identity!"

Not long after, a soldier reported, "This person is Jiang Qin's wet nurse..."

Lu Meng, who originally squatted down and put his fingers on the old woman's neck, feeling that her pulse was getting weaker and weaker, shook his head after hearing this.

The old woman's senile face was full of hatred. She glared at Lu Meng fiercely, as if... saying that her "child" was a traitor was the hardest thing for her to accept.

But the eyes gradually became blurry, until... there were no eyes anymore.

Lu Meng sighed and pointed at his daughter who fell on the ground behind him.

"Cut off her head too..."

That's what he said, and that's what the order was, but Lu Meng knew that just these two people... couldn't make the lord Sun Quan's anger go away!

Lujiang...the stakes are too high!

Losing the Lujiang River and losing the right to govern the river is equivalent to...the entire Jiangdong has been exposed clearly, allowing the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Cao Wei to trample on it——

"Detain them all and torture them severely——"

"I want to see blood——"

Lu Meng frowned and emphasized again.

The colder his words were, the less they could conceal his already "panic" heart...

Do you really want to take that last step?
Take the step of "retreating to Yizhou" when there is no other way to go and start everything from scratch?

...

...

The aroma of the mutton stew in the street recipe penetrates the nostrils with the heat, refreshing people's spirits and moving their index fingers.

After not returning to the old town of Jiangling City for a long time, Guan Lin found that the streets had not changed much. It was easy to find the food shop under the De Sheng Bridge, right next to the tea stall where he listened to books in the past...

Guan Lin sniffed and walked in.

"Fourth Young Master is here in person. If you want anything to eat, just order it. It will be all mine..." The shopkeeper lowered his waist and asked enthusiastically.

"How do you calculate it? I am not short of this little money." Guan Lin replied with a smile, and then asked Lu Xun and Shi Wu who were traveling with him, "What do you two eat?"

"It's all right..."

"Then three bowls of hot soup, a pound of mutton, three pancakes, and three small plates of the pickles you pickled yourself."

Guan Lin was familiar with ordering food, and they deliberately chose a table in the corner to sit down. From here, they could see the whole view of the restaurant, but they would not attract much attention. This was Guan Lin's consistent habit.

The mutton soup was brought up. Guan Lin sat cross-legged, took a piece of Hu cake, broke it into small pieces, and put it into the soup. After the Hu cake was soaked a little soft, he stirred it with chopsticks, and then mixed the meat and cake. Add it all together and take a bite.

Yes, although I haven't eaten it for a long time, the delicious taste has not changed at all.

Lu Xun and Shiwu saw Guan Lin eating with gusto, and imitated his eating method. They never thought... this mutton soup soaked Hu cake is really a masterpiece...

At this moment, the guests in the next seat were talking.

"Have you heard? Lujiang City surrendered... Jiang Qin and He Qi, who had repeatedly resisted Guan Gong's attacks, actually surrendered to our Governor Mi..."

"I have always said that our Governor Mi is a blessed man. Ever since he insisted on marrying Mr. Yunqi regardless of his age or etiquette, he has won many battles and victorious times... After all, among the dead souls under Guan Gong... he is famous... There are nothing more than Hua Xiong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Wen Pin... and those miscellaneous ones from the Five Passes and Six Generals, let's not mention them... But our Grand Administrator Mi is not willing to give in too much, Zhou Tai, Pan Zhang, Ma Zhong... even those Xu Sheng, who severely wounded Wei General Zhang Liao, was also defeated at the hands of our Governor Mi. Not to mention that in the past he blocked Wenpin's army, but now he intimidated Lujiang and forced him to surrender... In my opinion, Governor Mi's achievements are no less than those of Guan Gong! "

"Mi Fang? Is he worthy of being inferior to Guan Gong? Look at his big belly? Those chubby cheeks, how can he look like a general?"

"Hey, how can you talk like this? Prefect Mi has made great achievements, how can you just look at people based on their appearance?"

"Shut up, shut up, are you talking about going astray? What we should be talking about is that Jingzhou and Jiangdong will be connected in the future. So... Then with Cao Wei... we are in a situation of confrontation between north and south. This makes I think of the conflict between Chu and Han 400 years ago...At that time, it was East and West, now it is North and South..."

Hearing the diners in the room talking about it, Guan Lin just smiled and drank the bowl of soup in front of him quietly, as if the whole world was in this bowl of soup.

Little people always have various speculations about the current situation. Although most of them are quite superficial, there are also some that are sharp to the point.

However, even if some of them can really see through the current situation, they are just water droplets that merge into the river and are carried down by the rushing river. No matter how unwilling they are, there is nothing they can do.

The general trend of the world is that if we divide for a long time, we will unite, and if we unite for a long time, we will divide...

Just like the bowl of soup in front of you, if you taste it alone, the mutton soup tastes like soup, and the Hu cakes taste like Hu cakes. But if you soak the Hu cakes in the soup, it will be a different kind of deliciousness.

And just when Guan Lin was listening to the comments from others...

A civil servant came over and mentioned something in Lu Xun's ear. After Lu Xun heard this, he immediately reported to Guan Lin in a low voice, "Yun Qi, Ru Xu's letter has been received by Sun Quan. As expected... In anger, Sun Quan executed all of them. As a small family, we should serve as a warning to others...Thanks to Hongyan, he took the lead and evacuated many people, but still more than twenty people who had no time to evacuate died in vain under Sun Quan's sword!"

"One general's success will lead to ten thousand bones being withered..." Guan Lin replied calmly: "We have tried our best to reduce the losses, but in the end, it is up to people to succeed!"

"Yes..." Lu Xun sighed with emotion: "Only twenty of their clansmen died... It's already going very smoothly... Then..." Lu Xun's voice lowered further...

Guan Lin also lowered his voice to a minimum and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "The plan is indeed unusually smooth, then... the next drama is - Zhou Xun fights to the death with Ruxu, and his loyalty is revealed to the world. …”

what…

Guan Lin's words surprised Lu Xun, and he quickly asked: "At this time, why don't we withdraw Zhou Xun and his family? Is it too risky to let Zhou Xun return to Jiangdong?"

What Lu Xun meant... was not that Guan Lin's plan was bad, but that it was too risky, and in this situation, it was not necessary at all... The Lujiang River had been occupied, and using the Lujiang River as a springboard, the flying ball took off... How many soldiers did Soochow have... also All captured.

However, as soon as he said these words, Lu Xun realized that he was thinking simply.

Yunqi never used "flying balls" in his strategy against Soochow. Perhaps it was because the flying balls were launched into the sky and under the sea of ​​​​purgatory fire, even if the city was destroyed, the people would definitely leave the impression of him as a devil like Cao Wei. It's the devil, it's killing...

This will not be conducive to the subsequent rule of Soochow.

This is very realistic!

The sea of ​​​​purgatory fire is like Cao Cao's massacre of the city. It is easy to massacre and can also have a deterrent effect, but there will often be a series of troubles in the aftermath. What Guan Lin wants is stability... rather than strength and speed.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Xun realized that Guan Lin's flying balls and sea of ​​fire... had only been used against cities where the enemy had completed moving the people away...

This is what Lu Xun suddenly wanted to understand.

Guan Lin answered Lu Xun's question from another angle, "Returning to Jiangdong was not proposed by me, but by Zhou Xun and Hongyan... They said they would find a way to take over Jiangdong's border defense. If so, our army would Crossing the river will be smooth sailing without any obstacles... and the losses of both parties can be minimized. Of course, this does not sound easy, but since they mentioned it, I am willing to believe them and formulate corresponding strategies to assist them... "

At this point, Guan Lin drank the last mouthful of mutton soup in the bowl. The warmth in his stomach made him feel relieved. He changed the subject, "Compared to Jiangdong, I care more about Baidi City." Case!"

Yes…

How about Adou?
When Liu Bei and Adou meet, what kind of sparks will be stirred up?
These are what Guan Lin is more concerned about.

As Guan Lin led the conversation to Baidi City, Lu Xun counted with his fingers, "Today, Chengdu's fast horses should also arrive at Baidi City!"

...

...

"father?"

In Baidicheng, when Liu Bei saw his son Liu Chan in a secret room, he was really surprised.

However, this surprise only lasted for a short moment, and soon after, Liu Bei had the urge to kill the child!
How much government and military duties does he do in a day?
How many thoughts does he have in a day?
How many people does he see in a day?How many people have you won over?

Although he has the assistance of Zhuge Liang and Fazheng, as the leader of Shu, he controls the heart as much as anyone else.

But he was deceived by this brat!
Not only did he deceive him, but the entire civil and military dynasty... were all deceived by him!
How much time would it take for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to arrive at Baidi City?How much energy does it take...

Liu Bei became more and more angry.

Therefore, even when facing his biological son who was running towards him with a smile on his face, he sneered without any hesitation and raised his hand to give Liu Chan a slap in the ear.

"Snapped--"

This ear is shaved cleanly...

Liu Chan came here to ask for credit. He smiled brightly, but now he could only cover his cheeks and said, "Dad, why do you spank a child?"

Liu Bei looked at Liu Chan with hatred, "I finally understand why even Yun Qi is unwilling to teach you. You dare to cheat your own death on such a big matter, tease your father, make fun of all the ministers, and treat the government and military affairs of Shu as nothing." , it can be seen from this... what kind of nonsense have you been doing in Jingzhou in the past six months? No wonder Yun Qi wants to expel you from the school! You are ignorant and have no skills, and you act recklessly. Your behavior is different from that of the absurd and mediocre Huan and Ling Er. What's the difference between an emperor? If he becomes a master one day, he will definitely be a foolish master, a master who can hand over his inheritance to others!"

Liu Bei's cold words like a gust of wind came out loudly, and Liu Chan felt like his head was buzzing, and tears of disappointment flowed from the corners of his eyes to the corners of his mouth.

He... what did he do wrong?

Surely that's not important?
In his father's mind, he...is Liu Chan such an ignorant, foolish and absurd son?
Wasn't his father even willing to give him a chance to explain?
Not only did his father deny Liu Chan, but he also denied it to Master Yunqi's professors in the past few months.

——"Crash..."

Tears flow...

Liu Chan wiped his eyes and forced to hold back the continuous tears that were about to burst out. For the first time, he met Liu Bei's cold eyes with great strength.

"father…"

Liu Chan opened his mouth tremblingly, as if he was about to refute his father for the first time, and he was not fully prepared yet.

嗏

The arrow is on the string and must be fired——

"..."Journey to the West" said that Sun Houhou was misunderstood three times, scolded three times, and tightened three times by Tang Sanzang... At first, when I saw this, I still didn't believe it. How could anyone misunderstand others like this... He didn't even give an explanation. Opportunity! But now the child has believed it. The reality is far more absurd than what was recorded in "Journey to the West". I am obviously doing the right thing, but... I will be misunderstood, like this? I still do the right thing. What are you doing? Father, just give me a few more slaps and slap me to death——"

Liu Chan's words made Liu Bei a little stunned...

What is this with what?
and many more…

When did this kid learn to talk back?

"What are you talking nonsense about? If you don't learn the good ones, you will learn all the bad ones, right?"

Liu Chan faced Liu Bei's anger... "My father asked me what I have learned. What the child learned is... A frog cannot talk to the sea, because it is limited to the void; a summer insect cannot talk to the ice, it is a stick to the time; a song scholar cannot Those who speak the Tao are tied to teachings. Now that you have come out of the cliff and looked at the sea, you know that you are ugly, and you will be able to speak Dali."

This…

You cannot talk to the frog in the well about the sea;
A summer bug cannot talk to it about ice;

Don't talk about big principles with people who have little knowledge.

This…

"Cough cough cough..."

Just like Guan Yu's mood and state of mind when he heard Guan Lin say these words to him in the past, Liu Bei at this moment coughed violently and violently, almost like Guan Yu at that time.

However, Liu Bei knew about what Guan Lin said to Guan Yu in advance through Yang Yi...

However, at that time, he could never have imagined that these words would be applied to him by his own son today.

"The treasonous son...the treasonous son..."

"The treasonous son will be the treasonous son!" Liu Chan waved his hand indifferently, "The treasonous son can help my second uncle win Xiangfan, the treasonous son can help my second uncle capture Xuchang, the treasonous son can help my second uncle capture Soochow, and the obedient son can help my second uncle capture Soochow. How can you do this? Don’t speculate, just leave, don’t say anything anymore——”

"Do you dare to take a step and give it a try?" Liu Bei's unquestioning tone remained the same as before.

Liu Chan flicked his sleeves, and he, who was originally a tiger-headed man, became as cold as a knife at this moment... "If you dare not leave, do you still deserve to be a traitor?"

As he spoke, he strode out of the room without giving Liu Bei the slightest chance to react...or even have a chance to take action.

It wasn't until Liu Chan walked out that Liu Bei belatedly wanted to catch up with Liu Chan.

"My lord..."

But at this moment, Zhao Yun in the room couldn't bear it anymore. He quickly stopped in front of Liu Bei and said, "My lord, please listen to Yun's words."

"If you are interceding for this rebellious son, then forget about it... I am just sorry that in the past, under the Changban slope, you went in and out seven times... What exactly did you rescue?"

Liu Bei was also angry.

Zhao Yun handed a cup of tea to Liu Bei, "My lord, let's calm down first...Actually, Yun didn't want to plead for the young master?"

"what is that?"

"My lord made the mistake of blaming the young master. Yun feels that the lord should apologize to the young master..."

"What?" Liu Bei almost swallowed all the tea in one gulp before spitting it out. He forced himself to hold back, "Zilong, how come you..."

"Lord, the reason why the young master faked his death this time has two purposes... One is that someone in Jingzhou and Bashu secretly assassinated him. It must be an insider. If he didn't fake his death... then this person will definitely have a second and third time. Three assassinations...and so on, the lord is afraid that he will never see the young master again in Baidi City..."

This…

Zhao Yun's words undoubtedly changed Liu Bei's expression, "Zilong, are you serious about what you said?"

"If it's fake..." Zhao Yun continued, "This is the first, and the second... is that the young master thinks that only by cheating his death can the mastermind become careless, and only in this way... can the mastermind become careless? Only then can the young master and the lord find this person and eliminate future troubles forever..."

"..."

As Zhao Yun's voice fell, the room became extremely quiet for a moment...

Liu Bei seemed to be shocked on the spot, in disbelief, and even a little stunned.

Gradually, he woke up a little, but he felt a little dazed again, so that his face quickly turned red, and veins popped out on his forehead, and then...as if he got a blessing in disguise...he slammed the table with excitement and enthusiasm. , pen and ink splattered on the desk.

One of the pekoe pens fell to the ground with a "snap", which made Zhao Yun's heart thump. He muttered in his heart... "Adou and the lord will not be like Yun Qi and Yun Chang... tit for tat, love and kill each other." After countless times, we finally got along with one party with a compromise, right?"

Just when Zhao Yun was worried...

"Hahahaha..." Liu Bei suddenly laughed excitedly, "Hahaha...hahaha..."

This laughter was not Liu Bei's restrained style at all. He looked around, then looked at Liu Chan's leaving figure, and said in surprise: "My son has enlightened... The Qilin'er of the Guan family has taught a Qilin'er from Shu——"
