The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

It took another two days for the army to cross the mountain road one after another and officially enter the border of Xinye; the land of Xinye already belongs to Nanyang, and the land here is fertile and flat. Although there are only a few small counties, the population is There are so many, it is a place where troops can be stationed.

Similarly, here and Xiangyang are only separated by a river, so there are many wealthy families and aristocratic families.Although they are all small families, they are also an important force.

The embarrassing Liu Bei used to rely on these small families to gradually start his fortune.

It is not close to the densely populated place of Xinye, and some traffic can be faintly seen in the distance. Occasionally, there are chickens and dogs, and it looks like a peaceful scene.

In fact, the land of Xinye is rarely affected by the flames of war, and it can be regarded as a rare piece of pure land in troubled times.

But the arrival of the Bingzhou Army is destined to break the tranquility here.

When Lu Yi rode his horse out of the mountain path, he heard piercing alarm bells ringing continuously in a small village not far from the mountain path, and a large number of people, supporting the old and the young, ran towards the distance to avoid war.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yi's mouth, he looked to the left and right and said, "Are we so scary?"

It seems that the image of the Bingzhou Army is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. When a three-year-old child sees the Canglang Banner, he will be so scared that he will stop crying. This is naturally not a good reputation. [

Chen Gong also couldn't help but wryly smiled, shook his head and said: "My lord, I'm afraid it's the people in Jiangxia who heard the rumors we spread and came here to tell them, so that they spread rumors and everyone panicked."

"Don't let the rumors go on like this, my lord, I think it's better to send someone to explain in detail." Yuan Huan came over and advised Lu Yi.

He is a standard scholar, so he naturally attaches great importance to his reputation. Seeing that everyone spread rumors and was about to publicize the Bingzhou Army as a bandit who went around and robbed houses, Yuan Huan naturally couldn't see it.

Lu Yi lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly laughed. In fact, after receiving the specific information from Chen Gong, he really had the idea of ​​looting his house.

But it's not good for him to say this in front of Yuan Huan, maybe this old master will blow his beard and stare, and come up with a big truth that is beyond the reach of others.

So Lu Yi just smiled, shook his head and said: "The rumors only stop at the wise, we don't need to pay attention to it! It's important to hurry up!"

The army continued to set off, heading towards the hinterland of Xinye. Along the way, there were countless villages, farms, large and small, and fertile fields and fertile soil.

There are also some aristocratic families' Wubao, in which private soldiers of all sizes, big and small, are gathered, all of them are tense, watching the Bingzhou army that is gradually going away.

Lu Yi had no intention of responding to these Tianzhuangwubao. They were just a small group of private soldiers with hundreds of people. As long as they didn't take the initiative to attack and could avoid fighting, it was better not to fight as much as possible.

Even though the Bingzhou army has already entered Xinye, it still takes several days to go to Nanyang. Moreover, entering Nanyang may not necessarily be smooth sailing.

In the land of Wancheng, there is another Zhang Xiu guarding there, and there are first-class counselors like Jia Xu under his command.If Lu Yi remembers correctly, Zhang Xiu will join Cao Cao in a short time.

But now, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao are still maintaining an alliance relationship, and Lu Yi can't guarantee whether Zhang Xiu will suddenly send troops to attack him. ,

The marching speed of the Bingzhou Army was slightly slower.Because there were too many grain trucks and luggage, and Jiangxia was a rich place, even Lu Yi felt a bit overwhelmed after the Bingzhou army scraped the ground three feet away.

Sometimes he felt that too much money and food was a burden.

After another day's journey, finally, the scene in front of him changed. There were less endless rice paddies, but gradually more people. [

The density of Wubao here is much better than yesterday, and there are even several Wubao, like a small city.Lu Yi has already sent spies over here to investigate. This is the center where aristocratic families of all sizes gather. If you go further, you will be close to Xinye County.

However, Lu Yi had no intention of attacking Xinye, not to mention the small town of Xinye, whether it can be defended or not, just delay here for one more day, maybe Liu Biao's army will come after him.

But Lu Yi still decided to stay here for a day, he, there is actually a Huang family's farm here!This is why Huang Zu was so nervous when he heard that Lu Yi was coming to Xinye.

"Gongtai, how long will it take to reach the Huang family's manor?" The army stopped in an open area to rest. There is a meandering river flowing through a distant mountain stream. On the river bank, there are many green weeds , There are little white wild flowers blooming in the grass.

Lu Yi was standing on the bank of the river with green grass, while letting Wu Yunju drink from the clear spring, he asked Chen Gongdao.

Chen Gong's beard is all grey, he has been on the road for several days, and he has a lot of wind and frost, but his spirit is very good, he can be regarded as vigorous.Hearing the words, he immediately said: "The old man has been checked by the spies, and after walking for half an hour, you will be able to see the Huangjiazhuang!"

After finishing speaking, Chen Gong had a strange expression on his face again. Looking at Lu Yi, he still couldn't help persuading him, "Master, do we really want to go there? Although it is also Huang's farm, the owner is Huang Chengyan. This man But the famous people in Jingzhou are very famous! If possible, it’s better not to offend them.”

"Otherwise, it is precisely because this farm belongs to Huang Chengyan that I went to have a look! Anyway, I have offended the Huang family once, so it's no harm to offend the Huang family a second time!"

However, Lu Yi shook his head, his tone was very firm. Similarly, he still had an extremely bold guess in his heart. Since Huang Chengyan's home is in Xinye, doesn't it mean that Huang Yueying also lives here.

I just don't know if the current Huang Yueying is married to that Zhuge Liang.

As he thought about it, the army had already rested and started to set off.After half an hour, Lu Yi finally saw a huge farm in the distance.

There are fertile fertile fields nearby, and ditches criss-crossing. In the center of the ditches, a farm stands quietly, and there is actually a tall tower inside, which is responsible for monitoring the surrounding movements.

The arrival of the Bingzhou army immediately caused exclamations in the farm, and then the ear-piercing sound of clappers rang.Even Lu Yi saw that a paper kite that had been floating in the sky actually wobbled to the ground!

"My lord, isn't that a phoenix?" Many soldiers in the Bingzhou army exclaimed when they saw the paper kite swinging in the air.

"That's not a phoenix, it seems to be a wooden kite!" Liu Ye is well-informed, and even a great expert in making siege equipment. He recognized the sky at a glance, and immediately showed a solemn expression on his quiet face, and sighed. : "In this farm, there must be people who are skilled in craftsmanship!"

"Wooden kite?"

Lu Yi smacked his mouth, Liu Ye has always been calm, he would never joke with himself.It's just that he has never heard of this kite made of wood, and it can still fly into the sky. It's really a wonderful workmanship!

It seems that I came here by coincidence, I heard that Huang Yueying seems to be a person who is skilled in craftsmanship, and even helped Zhuge Liang invent the Yuanrong Liannu.

I just don't know if this woman is at home now?It seems that this time, the general must pass!

Leaving the army outside, Lu Yi personally led the crowd, leading a thousand cavalry, and slowly approached the farm.The Canglang flag was raised high, like a ferocious wolf who chooses to kill, exuding a more terrifying murderous aura.

There were bursts of terrified cries in the farm, especially when they saw the thousand cavalry behind Lu Yi, the black army that was already in the distance.The dealer inside became even more panicked.

"Generals, I don't know about my village. Is there anything I can do for you?" The scale of the Bingzhou army is definitely not something that the farmers of the farm can resist. Suddenly, an old steward stood up and shouted Inquired, in fact, is showing weakness.

I hope to use some money, gold and silver to send the outside army away.

It's just that the purpose of Lu Yi's coming here was to see if Huang Yueying was around, how could he give up for some money, and immediately shook his head, but let Sun Guan go out.

Sun Guan, with yellow hair and black face, was born with a ferocious face. At this time, he stepped forward with a tiger's step forward, with a sword in one hand and an iron shield in the other.drank:

"Then I heard clearly, my lord is exhausted from the journey, and I want to borrow your farm to rest for a while. If you are sensible, open the door quickly to welcome you. If you don't follow, I will immediately go in and kill you!"

"Presumptuous, do you talk like that!" Lu Yi glared at Sun Guan, then smiled all over his face, like a spring breeze blowing on his face, looked at the manager and said, "Old man, don't listen to this idiot's nonsense. I have admired Huang Chengyan for a long time." Is it because Jingzhou celebrities don't know that Huang Laoke is at home?"

It turned out that he came to visit the head of the family!The old steward was really frightened by Sun Guan, until he saw Lu Yi with a kind face, he calmed down, shook his head and said: "It's unfortunate that the general came, my master went out to visit friends!"

"Huang Chengyan is not here?" Lu Yi felt regretful when he heard it, but he still said, "Although Huang Lao is not here, I still hope that I can go in and stay for one night, and I would like to ask the old man to open the door!"

"This..." Inside the farm, the steward was full of embarrassment and hesitation.

Sun Guan immediately jumped up and shouted: "That old man, you are so ignorant. I will count to three times, and if I don't open the door again, my grandson will rush in. The first one will chop you into eight pieces!"

"Hugh is polite!" Lu Yi yelled again, but his expression gradually turned cold.His blade-like eyes stared closely at the steward.

If this person is really ignorant, he has no choice but to call in.

Within the Grange.The steward was stared at by Lu Yi, his whole body was icy cold, a shadow of death flashed in his heart, he nodded quickly and said: "General, please calm down, I will report to my young lady, everything will be decided by the young lady!"

Huang Yueying is indeed here!

Lu Yi was overjoyed, but his expression remained calm, and he continued to wait outside.

Not long after, the steward of the farm ran back again, panting and said: "General, we can let you in, it's just a small village in the mountains, but it's impossible to gather an army, what can we do?"

"It's okay, I just bring 500 people in!" Grange, like a small kingdom.It covers an extremely large area. Although there are no more than 5000 troops in Tuntun, it is still more than enough to gather [-] people.

He ordered the army to camp outside, but Lu Yi himself entered the farm with all the generals and sat down in the main hall. The old steward brought his maids and servants to serve him water, wine, rice and meat, and carefully accompanied him.Say something flattering.

It's just that Lu Yi didn't have the heart to listen to the manager's flattery, so he just glanced at the door from time to time and asked, "Old man, didn't you say that your lady is at home, why don't you come out and see her?"

The steward, who was flattering her face, stared at Lu Yi, and immediately became vigilant, and hurriedly said: "To tell the truth, the general, my young lady has a rough appearance and is famous far and wide. I'm afraid it will disturb the general, so I avoid it."

"Really?" Lu Yi glanced at the old steward with a half-smile. Huang Yueying's beauty or ugliness had nothing to do with him, but Lu Yi was deeply afraid of Huang Yueying's terrifying inventive talent.

Zhuge Liang himself is already extremely terrifying, he is very wise and close to a demon, if Huang Yueying is added, this Zhuge Liang will definitely become his confidant in the future.

But this Zhuge Kongming is also a diehard loyalist of the Han family, so he can't recruit him.That being the case, Zhuge Liang must never be allowed to marry Huang Yueying.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi made a secret decision in his eyes, but his face remained calm, and he continued to ask: "I was outside just now, and I saw a big bird hovering in the sky and fell into the farm. All the soldiers said, this is the arrival of the phoenix, I want to go to have a look, please lead the way!"

"General, don't do it!" When the steward heard this, sweat rolled down his forehead, and he hurriedly waved his hands to stop him.Many of the dealers who served nearby also changed their faces, and some of them had a faint look of anger in their eyes.
