Lu's relatives

Chapter 392 Sudden "accident"
Poor parents in the world!I remember the last time Lu Lingqi sneaked out and followed Qin Xu to Chenliu. Luckily, she didn't provoke Lu Bu to send Qingzhou soldiers to Yanzhou to protect her. Why did she suddenly become so talkative this time?Could it be that the water was poured by the married daughter?
However, after returning home, Qin Xu immediately saw that Cai Yan, who was already five months pregnant, was lazily lying on the fence of the back hall, with a bulging abdomen. On the chair, listening to the scene of the stubborn old man Cai Yong carefully playing the piano and prenatal education, Qin Xu couldn't help but let out some inexplicable sighs.There are no parents who are not right!Qin Xu felt that he understood a little bit.

The famous Confucianist in the country, No.1 in the literary world can put down his body to play the piano for his pregnant daughter, so why wouldn't the number one fighter in the world not think about his own daughter?Cai Yan is pregnant, but Lu Lingqi's stomach has not moved. How can Lu Bu and his wife, who know about their own family affairs, not be in a hurry?How could they have thought that Qin Xu just saw that Lu Lingqi was too young and couldn't bear to "do it", and that Cai Yan's belly was growing day by day, but Lu Lingqi didn't move at all, so it's strange that he was not in a hurry.

But this matter is a private matter after all, and it cannot be explained too clearly.Therefore, when Lu Bu, who was at his wit's end, saw Lu Lingqi's request, he "magnanimously" agreed this time.This act of rushing to the doctor for such a sick person really made Qin Xu feel both amused and blocked.But now the future is uncertain and the way back is slim, so I can only pretend not to know.Besides, even though the matter of going to Hebei was temporarily decided at the family banquet, how to tell the girls of Cai Yan is still a problem.After all, things in Hebei are different from the past. Before Jiangdong is settled, it is impossible for Lu Bujun to use all his military strength to fight for Hebei territory.In this way, no one can say how long the war between Jizhou and Bingzhou will be delayed.In the past, Cai Yan always had an indifferent temper, as if he would not take anything too seriously, but Qin Xu could feel it himself, and he also heard from Lu Lingqi that during each expedition, Cai Yan basically did not sleep Get a good night's sleep.Not only do you have to reconcile the relationship between the female family members of Qin's harem, but you also need to communicate with the family members of other generals. Otherwise, now that you are pregnant, you can't bear to worry, but at this time you have to leave again, Qin Xu really doesn't know Why did you speak.

"Zhongming! Ling'er, you're back." Cai Yan, who was sleeping with her eyes closed to raise her baby, seemed to have a tacit understanding. Before Qin Xu approached, she noticed it, opened her eyes lazily, and gave it generously Qin Xu gave a gentle smile.

"Father-in-law!" Cai Yan could rely on the treasure in his belly to make his father willing to be a "qin attendant", but Qin Xu had already experienced the peerless scolding skills of a stubborn old man, and he did not dare to surpass him in the slightest. The long bow salute.

"Hmm!" Perhaps since Cai Yan became pregnant, the stubborn old man has been living in the Qin Mansion in the name of taking care of his daughter. It was true that she lost her position, turned her head away, ignored Qin Xu, and just nodded awkwardly at Lu Lingqi.

"How did you come back so early from General Lu's place!" Cai Yan showed a half-smile expression on Cai Yan's slightly plump cheeks that Qin Xu couldn't figure out, raised his eyebrows slightly, and pursed his lips. Said: "Is there something wrong? Could it be that Zhongming is going to fight again?"

"Huh? Why are you... Cough cough, it's not considered an expedition, at most it's an envoy." Qin Xu, who hasn't figured out how to "account" to Cai Yan, sometimes really doubts that Cai Yan can capture Jia Xu alive. Girl, is there her eyeliner in Lu Bu's mansion? It seems that it was the most correct decision to start early and turn her into his mother.

"Where are you going?" Cai Yan lazily straightened up from the "Xiaoyao Chair" and asked.The helplessness in the words is very obvious.Presumably, the black-bellied sister is also used to this "big baby" of her family who is born to work hard. After two years of accumulation in Lu Bu's military account, there are not a few of them. Why did General Lu focus on Qin Xu?It almost made Cai Yan feel regretful about teaching her husband and son-in-law to seek a title.

"It's not far, it's not far, I guess I'll be back in a month or so." Cai Yan really wronged Lv Bu. In the past few times, Lv Bu had no choice but to send out his precious son-in-law, but this time it was Qin. Xu rushed forward by himself.Seeing Cai Yan frowning, someone from Qin hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and seeing Cai Yan frowning while holding his belly, Qin Xu could only speak vaguely.

"Hebei or Jiangdong?" Cai Yan ignored Qin Xu's jokes, frowned and thought for a while, and asked.

"Hebei." Qin Xu said in a low voice, and added in a strange way: "Go with Ling'er."

"Oh?" What a smart woman Cai Yan is.Immediately, he "put himself in the shoes" and understood Lu Bu's hidden meaning.There was a hint of a smile in her beautiful eyes, and she looked innocently, thinking it was Lu Lingqi who was able to go out and have a good time this time, and asked Qin Xu, "There are so many complicated things in Hebei, who else will go with you on this trip? Zhen Home or Yuan Shang?"

Having such a smart wife is actually quite stressful sometimes.Almost when you say the first sentence, people have already guessed the next few sentences.Qin Xu scratched his head subconsciously, trying to minimize the influence and said: "Yuan Shang is too conspicuous, and as a trump card, it is not good to take it out too soon. It has just entered summer, and there is still some time before the autumn harvest. It is inappropriate to raise troops. Moreover, this trip is not to start a war with Jizhou directly, but just because we don't want to let... Cao Cao go too smoothly and win the merger of Jizhou in one fell swoop."

"Cao Cao's previous missions silenced those who were dissatisfied with his administration in Xuchang, and he had the emperor's honor. He was bound to win the two prefectures of Hebei! Moreover, Cao Cao was treacherous. Although Zhong Ming had been with him several times before, It's a little cheap, but you must not underestimate this guy!" The relationship between Lao Cai's family and Cao Cao is actually no worse than that of Lu Bu.Not to mention that Cao Ang is Cai Yong's registered disciple, he can also be regarded as Cai Yan's younger brother. Even Cao Cao studied under Cai Yong's school for a period of time when he was young, and his personal relationship is quite good, a real old friendship.Originally, Qin Xu wanted to explain the matter in a more gentle way in front of his father-in-law, but unexpectedly, Cai Yan was very forthright.

"Ahem! Zhong Ming is diligent in political affairs, which is excellent! Yan'er is a woman, don't talk too much!" Seeing Cai Yan talking to Qin Xu in such a "forceful" way, Qin Xu felt "guilty" , but be careful to promise, after all, Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the country, and he lives in his son-in-law's house. Seeing his son-in-law so "weak", his old face is a little bit embarrassing.

"It's okay! It's okay! My son-in-law can bear it, I'm used to it, I'm used to it!" Qin Xu didn't dare to climb along the pole.This stubborn old man has always said one thing and done another, just looking at Cai Yong put down his figure to cooperate with Cai Yan to raise the baby, it can be seen that this old man felt guilty for his daughter, but he was too embarrassed to say it clearly, so he simply put all his thoughts on Cai On the body of the child in Yan's womb, if he took his words seriously and planned to shock "Husband Gang", do you think this old man would scold Qin Xu so much that he couldn't leave the house for a few days.Besides, Qin Xu and Cai Yan have been "accompanied" with a sharp knife since the very beginning. Didn't they also succeed in taking down the black-bellied beauty? This so-called "grievance" is just to add some interest That's all, if you get involved with your own father-in-law, it's nothing.

Because of Cai Yong's interruption, Cai Yan probably also felt that it would be better to save some "face" for Qin Xu in front of her father and Lu Lingqi, so she quietly shut up, giving Qin Xu a trick that only two people can understand look in his eyes, he gave up.

"What exactly did Sister Yan'er say to you? It looks like your eyes are dark, can you tell me?" Outside Linzi City, on the official road leading to the plain, he was dressed in military uniform, carrying a weight second only to Lu Bu's. Lu Lingqi, who was holding the iron halberd painted by Fang Tian, ​​couldn't hold back her strong curiosity after all. She kept asking questions with her big eyes blinking. She stayed in Cai Yan's room and whispered last night. The lights didn't go out until late at night. What exactly is someone in Qin doing.

"What else can I say, it's nothing more than taking good care of you, taking care of myself!" Because the Zhen family is by his side, Qin Xu didn't want these people with noses not noses and eyes not to hear some private words, so as to save the trouble Zhen Jian, that old thief, always glanced this way from the corner of his eyes full of "contempt".

"Oh..." Lu Lingqi was a little disappointed that she didn't get a satisfactory answer, and she was a little absent-minded while holding the reins of the horse.However, when he noticed the unfriendly eyes of Zhen Jian, father and son, and his uncle looking at Qin Xu, they frowned slightly, and put their hands on the iron halberd. If you are so rude to help others, you will immediately plan to vent your anger.

It's no wonder that Miss Lu Lingqi has a quick temper.No matter how good-tempered someone is, whoever faces an elder who doesn't know each other, doesn't have much contact with him, always puts on airs, and wholeheartedly helps an outsider who intends to "deal with" his husband .What's more, there is a younger sister who has become the daughter of her husband, but she still doesn't give up. She still wants to be her own little mother, Zhen Jiang. His eyes seemed to swallow his father alive, did he really think that his group of people were blind?

In fact, no matter whether it was Lu Lingqi or Qin Xu, they really misunderstood Zhen Jian this time.Although in the previous matter, Zhen Jian did not have a good impression of Qin Xu, but the matter has been accomplished, and Zhen Jian, as the leader of the Zhen family in Hebei among the seven great merchants of the Han Dynasty, is not stupid enough to be in charge just now. After reaching a "cooperation" with Lu Bu, he immediately offended the "number two" figure in Lu Bu's army.Besides, after all, Qin Xu, as the governor of Xuzhou, is one of the nine ministers bestowed by the emperor, and he also leads the title of General Zhengdong and Marquis of Wuting. Just waiting for the idle people.No matter how many private soldiers there are, it is estimated that they will not be able to pass the charge of the first camp behind Qin Xu.

Speaking of which, Lu Bu didn't intend to send too many soldiers and horses to accompany him. After all, Zhang Liao's five thousand elite cavalry battalion was stationed in the plain, and they could gallop to Jizhou in a day and night.With this reliance, Qin Xu and the others were able to walk sideways in Jizhou, and they would not dare to be rude even if they lent Yuan Xi the courage.But after all, as the old saying goes, the mother is worried when the son travels thousands of miles, and the father is worried when the daughter goes out.Boss Lu knew very well that Lu Lingqi's temperament was very similar to his own. It was not because he was afraid that someone would bully Lu Lingqi, but because he was afraid that his daughter would get into trouble because there were not enough manpower to make things right.It can be seen that Lu Bu knows his precious daughter well.

Therefore, under the instigation of Lu Bu's familiarity with Hebei, and perhaps with a certain "bad taste", Lu Bu sent Qu Yi and Qian Zhaosuo, who were resting and were no different from Qin Xu's private soldiers, to board the camp first. Once again acting as the escort for Qin Xu and his precious daughter, Cheng Lian, who made Xian panic, lead a battalion of 6000 flying cavalry to change defenses with Zhang Liao, but in fact he had no "plan" to go to Jizhou with the two of them.With more than [-] people accompanying him, not to mention that Zhen Jian had no other plans in the first place, even if he had, he still had to weigh whether his family soldiers, who were accompanied by more than a hundred people, could carry the [-] regular army.

To be honest, Lu Bu and Cai Yong both know how to love their daughters, so why not Zhen Jian?In fact, Zhen Jian's behavior was just out of dissatisfaction with Qin Xu for leaving his daughter in Linzi, which seemed to be a hostage.But he didn't expect to provoke such a little villain as Lu Lingqi.To say that Zhen Jian is worthy of being able to make the "low business" in the eyes of big men like merchants bigger and stronger enough to be able to join the ranks of aristocratic families, although he has relaxed a lot in his old age, he still has a sense of resilience.After receiving Lu Lingqi's silent threat, Zhen Jian shut his mouth obediently because he knew current affairs. Even the aura of his nephew and son-in-law Lu Wenhou was shocked. After moving to Laizi, the "uncle" of Lu Lingqi, who had settled down as a "big family" with Lu Bu, deliberately approached her, and also avoided it from a distance.It made Lu Lingqi want to help Qin Xu "exit his anger", but she couldn't do it.

A group of people left Linzi in a mighty way and headed towards the plain.With Lao Zhentou's deliberate forbearance, nothing happened along the way.Seeing that they are about to enter the border of Pingyuan, after all, they will still have to rely on the influence and connections of the Zhen family in Hebei, and it will not be very good for both of them if the quarrel is too stiff.Moreover, the old Zhentou's performance on the road was very "on the road", so that Qin Xu couldn't find a word of wrong.So after Qin Xu set up camp with the army, he first settled Lu Lingqi, who was not very pleasing to the eyes of the Zhen family and his party, and planned to go to guard the "magnanimous" one first, "not annoying", and the one who was not too close to his camp. Take a look at Zhen Jian's residence. Although Zuo Zuo has a high position in Lu Bu's army, he is too young after all, so it's good to make a gesture this time.

"Who!!?" I don't know if it's Qin who has had a bad time, or just thinking about other things and finding the wrong "path".Just as he was wondering why such a "pretty" person like Zhen Jian didn't even have a guard in front of the tent, he heard a sudden scream from the tent, which startled Qin Xu who didn't know why.

Although Qin Xu was a little dazed by causing such a big trouble because he chose the wrong path, Qin Xu naturally "recognized" the owner of the voice.There are only two women in this line.Apart from Lu Lingqi who slept soundly in her tent, there was only Zhen Jiang who wanted to be her number four mother-in-law.Qin Xu still doesn't know what happened, and how it provoked such a big reaction from this unjust and kind master.On this night, there was no one guarding the surrounding tent strangely, under the dark night and high wind, suddenly there was such a "sharp" scream from a woman.Aside from being scary, if someone else sees this and thinks about some inappropriate things, then even if someone from Qin jumps into the Yellow River, he won't be able to clean it up.

In fact, it wasn't just Qin Xu who was embarrassed, since Zhen Jiang in the military tent could make such a loud noise, he was naturally frightened.The Second Miss Zhen was just about to turn off the lights and dress for bed when she suddenly discovered that the lights in front of the tent had printed Qin Xu's shadow on the felt cloth of the tent.No matter how scheming Zhen Jiang is, no matter how good at strategy, in the final analysis, she is just a woman who has just turned 20 years old.In this foreign land and place, in the military camp where even the guards can't be fully trusted, it's no wonder that they didn't respond to such a sudden incident.But Zhen Jiang is not an ordinary woman after all, who knows why someone would suddenly come out of her tent without sleeping in the middle of the night.

"Slip!" Qin Xu secretly groaned in his heart.Based on Zhen Jiang's scream like a cry, even though most of the people are asleep now, based on Qin's understanding of the efficiency of the response of Lu Bu's soldiers, I am afraid that within ten breaths, someone will come Here, even if the soldiers of the Zhen family can be brought by the head of the Zhen family, they must be elite soldiers, and the speed of coming here will not be too slow.It would be a lot of fun if he got caught.

After thinking so much, it was only a matter of a moment.Qin Xu made up his mind immediately, no matter what, no one could see his army's "commander" appearing outside the Zhen's daughter's tent in the middle of the night, causing them to scream.Not even his own sergeant.You said that you came here in a daze because you lost your way thinking about something. If Qin Xu heard it, he might just sneer. It's no wonder that other people would believe this!

"Here! Here! The voice comes from here!" It's just a pity.Qin Xu's understanding of his sergeants was too "conventional".Maybe it's because I underestimated the lack of entertainment programs in these years, the heart of ordinary people that was smothered by the raging fire of gossip.The speed with which this group of people arrived was simply outrageous.Moreover, with the sound of dense footsteps, fools know that there are definitely not a few people coming. Qin Xu really doesn't understand how these people who were sleeping like dead pigs a while ago came so quickly.

"It's too late!" The military camp set up this time is a circular and convex situation that only wants to be safe, that is to say, it is very likely that people come from all directions.No matter which way Qin Xu went, he would run into his own soldiers or Zhen's soldiers who came to "join in the fun".If he only encountered soldiers from the Zhen family's family, it's okay to say, at worst, he said that he was on a night watch and rushed over when he heard the voice. Although there are many loopholes, it can be regarded as an excuse anyway.But if I run into my own soldiers, I'm afraid it will be miserable. If I don't explain it, it's not good. If I explain it, it will be more and more black.Who doesn't know that his Marshal Qin's tent is not too close to here, unless he flies over, there is definitely something tricky.

"I'm sorry..." Seeing that he could already see the long figure illuminated by the torch in his hand.Reputation matters!Qin Xu didn't dare to hesitate anymore, gritted his teeth, and made a decision that he didn't even think of.
