Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

The moon and stars are few and far between, and magpies are flying south.

At the brand-new Luoyang City Gate, Cao Pi, Wu Zhi, Liu Zhen and others were divided into two teams and stood at the gate waiting for Cao Zhi.

The sound of horse hooves gradually sounded on the official road. Cao Zhi, wearing a cloak and riding a few dusty followers, came...

Cao Pi waved his hand and said: Zijian...

He rushed to greet him. Cao Zhi was obviously a little surprised to see his brother coming to pick him up so late. He quickly got off his horse and bowed to bow.

Cao Pi supported him and said, Zijian, you are here. If I don't hand over Luoyang City to you personally, how can I rest assured? Eh? Are there just the two of you? Are there no personal guards to escort you?

The two people Cao Pi was referring to were Cao Zhi and Ding Yi.

Ding Yi, like Yang Xiu, supports Cao Zhi and is a die-hard loyalist of Cao Zhi. This time, he came back with him to build Luoyang.

Hearing his brother's words, Cao Zhi smiled innocently, Since my father ordered me to complete the construction of Luoyang within two months, I was anxious about the progress in Luoyang. I didn't have time to mobilize troops, so I took Brother Ding and rushed back together. It took three days and three nights to arrive.”

Cao Pi caressed Cao Zhi's arm, It's hard to ride horses for several days, isn't it?

Being able to take over the second brother's job in building the city for my father is not a big deal. I heard people say that the second brother has already built the entire city of Luoyang. Now looking at this magnificent city gate, I expected it to be so. See Come on, thanks to my second brother, I can feel much more relaxed this time, and I will probably be able to complete the task as scheduled.

As Cao Zhi spoke, he wanted to thank him again.

Cao Pi stopped him and said, Hey, brother, what are you talking about? You've been working hard all the way. Second brother, you brought some good wine to catch the wind and wash away the dust!

Some pleasantries…

Cao Pi, Wu Zhi, Liu Zhen and others were in front, Cao Zhi and Ding Yi were behind. The group entered the city gate. There was a post house on the left. Cao Pi and others went in first. Cao Zhi was about to follow when Ding Yi suddenly stopped. Tell him, Young master got drunk when he first came to Luoyang. I'm afraid Prime Minister Cao will find out...

Don't wait for Ding Yi to finish speaking.

Cao Pi said loudly: Why don't you, fourth brother, come in? The wine and food are all ready? Come and have a try! There is no cook in Luoyang City nowadays. These dishes are specially cooked by your sister-in-law, just for you to catch the wind. of.

Hearing the word sister-in-law, Cao Zhi's eyes were fixed. He glanced at Ding Yi meaningfully, then took off his cloak and threw it to Ding Yi, Sister-in-law, like my mother, has always been good to me. My sister-in-law cooked the rice...how can I shirk it?

While speaking, Cao Zhi didn't hesitate anymore and strode in.

Sure enough, Zhen Mi is really here. This is the first time Cao Zhi has seen his sister-in-law this year.

It seems that he noticed that Cao Zhi was a little surprised...

Building a city in Luoyang is always hard work... Cao Pi explained, Your sister-in-law was originally in Xudu, not far from here. She was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get used to the big pot rice here, so she came here to cook for me. Now, many officials here can't live without the food cooked by your sister-in-law, but Zijian is so lucky... I'm gone, and you can still eat the dishes cooked by your sister-in-law.

When Cao Pi said these words, his eyes faintly turned to Zhen Mi's face.

At this moment, Zhen Mi is wearing a plain robe, standing elegantly in this elegant room, with a cool and calm temperament, like a fresh lotus blooming, pure and graceful, not dusty, and more like a lotus blooming in the secular world.

Although her youth is gone, no matter who sees her cold face now, they can't help but recite the popular saying ten years ago - There are Erqiao in Jiangdong, and Zhen Mi is pretty in Hebei!

On the other hand, Zhen Mi was pursed lips at the moment.

It seemed that standing between these two brothers made her a little nervous and restrained.

It also reminded her of what Cao Pi said to her two days ago when he learned that Cao Zhi was coming...

At that moment, from nowhere, Cao Pi took out many articles written by Cao Zhi, and along with these articles... there were also three letters from Zhen Mi...

Over the years, Zhen Mi has written letters to Cao Zhi three times.

The only thing they talked about was Cao Zhi is helping his sister-in-law relieve her loneliness!

Can…

Letters like brother-in-law and sister-in-law... are taboo after all. The correspondence between the two of them is often secret, extremely secretive, and they rarely even meet, let alone do anything outrageous.

Unexpectedly, Cao Pi found out.

Zihuan, you misunderstood me!

What's the misunderstanding? Although my poetry is not as good as Zijian's, I also know how to read poetry. Poems are all about love and are charming. Can't I see the word 'love' in these poems and letters!

Zihuan, you still misunderstood!

You like poetry, so let's talk about poetry. What did I misunderstand?

Facing Cao Pi's aggressiveness, Zhen Mi shed tears. She held Cao Pi's hand tightly and said, Zihuan, can't you have a good word with me? You have been cold to me for so many years since I married you. You have been keeping me cold. If...if you looked down on me and thought I was an abandoned woman, why did you still marry me? Can't you please spare me and let us each other go?

Cao Pi gently wiped away her tears. He didn't want to talk too much about it. He had no love for Zhen Mi. The only thing that could make him tempted was power. Queen Guo could give him advice and fight for rights. He I like Queen Guo Zhaoguo!

Even...Cao Pi knew deeply...Zhen Mi, even she was just a tool, the tool that her father used to make the brothers fight!

In this case, if his father wants to use a woman to let their brothers fight, then he, Cao Pi, will also use this woman to win the position of the heir apparent.

I have read all these letters. I don't want to talk about the past, and I won't mention it again in the future. I only ask you to do one thing!

Cao Pi's voice was cold and firm.

Zhen Mi gritted her teeth, Is it... that I will no longer write letters to Zijian or talk about poetry?

——‘Are you talking about poetry? 』

Cao Pi suppressed the anger that was about to come out in his heart. He said to Zhen Mi in a commanding tone: Zijian will come to Luoyang in two days. I want you to stay here. Don't you like to talk about poetry? Then I will let you talk in Luoyang. That’s enough!”

Cao Pi is not joking...

Cao Zhi is going to take over the construction of Luoyang, and Cao Pi is leaving, but what Cao Pi can't let go of the most is Li Miao's secret passage. He must make this secret passage foolproof so that it will not be discovered!

So...he must find a way to help Li Miao hide this secret passage!

Find a way to divert Cao Zhi's attention.

Then...the only way he can think of is Zhen Mi.

Cao Pi knew this stupid brother too well. As long as Zhen Mi was in Luoyang, not only would he not discover the secret passage, he would not even be able to complete his father's task of building Luoyang City in two months!

Cao Pi was a man who could sacrifice everything for his son, even if the sacrifice was his wife.

Because he knows better that if Cao Zhi becomes the final winner in this fight for the heir apparent, then... everything that belongs to him, including status, reputation, even his wife and dignity, will be taken away!

The most critical moment has come. Cao Pi should no longer have any worries and give it a go!

Zihuan, you still misunderstand me... Zhen Mi felt extremely aggrieved at that time.

Cao Pi frowned, I'm not kidding you, I really need you to do this... If, if you still think of yourself as my wife, then do as I say! Chat with Zijian in Luoyang City poetry…

When he said this sentence, Cao Pi felt as humiliated as ever, as if he had lost his dignity and became a zombie.

He threw all the letters that made him extremely humiliating into Zhen Mi's arms and walked away. Only Zhen Mi was left behind him and couldn't help but ask: Why? Why?

Cao Pi turned around, It's better not to ask. Even I regret it. Do you know why? Once you know it, you can't forget it or get rid of it. So not knowing it is kind!

Because of this incident, because of these words, Zhen Mi seemed to have cried all her tears. Cao Pi was humiliated, but how could she ever perform Cao Pi's mission without humiliation?

At this moment, in the elegant room of this post house, Zhen Mi tried her best to squeeze out a smile, Zijian is here. Your brother said a few days ago that he was worried that you were afraid of the cold, so he asked me to sew a cloak for you, but It’s been a busy few nights!”

Cao Zhi was deeply moved: Sister-in-law... my second brother and sister-in-law treat me so well.

As he spoke, he lowered his head and touched the delicate embroidery on the edge of the cloak, with mixed feelings...

He suddenly raised his head, took Cao Pi's hand, and looked at Zhen Mi: Sister-in-law, I want to stay drunk with my second brother tonight, sister-in-law won't mind, right?

This... Soon, two words came out of Zhen Mi's mouth: Naturally -

The night was getting darker and darker, but after a while, Cao Zhi was already very drunk. He chanted: ...the golden wine is full of pure wine, and the delicacies are everywhere. The people of Qi are enjoying the music, and the singers are coming out of the Western Qin. My young master is graceful, The cleverness is like a god, second brother...second brother it's your turn, second brother...second brother, you and your sister-in-law are so good to me!

Drunk, drunk...

Cao Zhi was already drunk, drunk in the gentle countryside specially woven by Cao Pi for him!

Zhen Mi, on the other hand, stood on the steps of the post house in the wind, looking at the door of the private room. The wind blew her sleeves, making her look so thin and desolate.

At this moment, she seemed to be in the eye of the storm, feeling the undercurrent between the brothers most directly and intensely.

She knew that no matter what, she couldn't escape!

…

…

In Shouchun City, the entire Zhang Liao's mansion seemed to be surrounded by a fog of confusion.

Zhang Liao's deep, painful and extremely forbearing screams sounded in the bedroom of the mansion.

Ah...ah——

Inside the house, a group of soldiers were guarding the outside. All the soldiers' eyes were fixed on Zhuo Rong's slender hands.

The Eight Iron Pieces of shining medical tools are placed aside;

Gold and silver needles, silver wires, medicine pestles, cupping pots, shawls, wooden trunks, waist pillars, tucks, etc. are gathered together.

Zhuo Rong calmly picked up a silver needle, washed it with wine, warmed it with fire, and then inserted it into Zhang Liao's acupuncture point, then the second, then the third, until eleven needles were inserted, Zhang Liao, who had fainted, finally Wake up.

The guards around him excitedly exclaimed:

Wake up, General Zhang is awake!

The soldiers who were originally doubtful about Zhuo Rong's medical skills finally let go of their worries and became much more friendly towards Zhuo Rong's tone.

On the other hand, although Zhang Liao was conscious, he still looked in pain, as if he was suffering a huge ordeal.

Zhuo Rong couldn't bear to see Zhang Liao in such pain and couldn't help but pursed his lips.

Subconsciously blurted out: It would be great if my master's numbness disappeared...

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered something and quickly covered her mouth. Here...she shouldn't have said that!

It will cost you your life!

But looking around, she found that no one cared about the sentence she just chanted.

Then he patted his chest lightly, feeling relieved.

This was a small episode, and soon, Zhuo Rong's heart sank again.

She quickly took out a gourd from the package and poured the green liquid in the gourd into the bowl. Can you help me? This medicine... needs to be taken by Brother Zhang and applied to the wound.

Brother Zhang…

Although Zhuo Rong chanted these three words hurriedly, he could not conceal a different kind of relationship, as if the two of them had a tacit understanding.

Following Zhuo Rong's words...all the guards quickly stretched out their hands, some to lift Zhang Liao's head, and others to carefully apply the green viscous liquid to the wounds on Zhang Liao's body.

call…

Seeing this, Zhuo Rong finally breathed out slowly and touched Zhang Liao's forehead. It seemed that the high fever had subsided a little.

But...that alone is not enough.

Zhuo Rong asked again: Do you have 'Gourd Garlic' here?

Her eyes were filled with expectation and infinite desire...

She couldn't wait to use Zhang Zhongjing's method of treating Ling Tong on Zhang Liao. She wanted Zhang Liao to live!

In fact, she told outsiders that she came to save Zhang Liao out of the kindness of a doctor... All of this was a lie and a cover-up.

In fact... there is no such thing as a doctor's kindness, it's just a feeling... Ever since he knew his name, he had an inexplicable feeling for Zhang Liao, a different kind of affection.

Because, according to the last disciple of the master, Wu Yayu, when Cao Cao wanted to kill his master Hua Tuo.

Among all the civil servants of Cao Wei, only Xun Yu and Xun Lingjun asked for mercy;

Among the generals of Cao Wei, only Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan interceded with Cao Cao.

Xun Yu's plea was - Hua Tuo's medical skills are indeed superb and are related to people's lives. He should be tolerated and tolerated!

Zhang Liao's plea for mercy was - The last general lived in Yanmen for a long time when he was young. Xianbei often looted, and ten rooms were empty. Countless soldiers guarded the border, and there were countless wounded. If many doctors hadn't spontaneously rushed to the border to heal the soldiers. Due to his injuries, I don’t even know if I can survive to this day, so I beg the Prime Minister to be more tolerant to the doctors and forgive Hua Tuo this time!

However, whether it is Xun Yu or Zhang Liao...

Their words failed to persuade Cao Cao after all.

It was Xun Yu who spread the word about his plea and was thanked by the people in the Xinglin Forest.

But Zhang Liao, because he was a warrior and a surrendered general, few people knew what he said. Zhuo Rong would not have known this secret if it hadn't been told by Wu Yajiu, the disciple whom the master recognized before his death.

It's just that... this matter is extremely dangerous because it involves the master... Zhuo Rong has never mentioned it to anyone, even his closest relatives.

Therefore, her feelings for Zhang Liao are special. Zhang Liao and Ling Tong also show their brave and fearless side, and she will be more moved by Zhang Liao——

On this side, Zhuo Rong was still sparing no effort to save Zhang Liao, while on the other side, Cao Zhen took advantage of the chaos and slipped to the door.

He was observing this woman, but inadvertently, he heard something.

It was what Zhuo Rong said unintentionally - It would be great if my master's Ma Fei disappeared!

Ma Fei San?

Ma boils away!

This...how could Cao Zhen not know about Ma Fei San?

How could Cao Zhen not know the owner of Ma Fei San?

My master?

this…

Immediately, Cao Zhen realized the seriousness of this matter.

Even...this unfamiliar female doctor claimed to be an old friend to General Zhang and called him Brother Zhang!

Even Zhang Liao's expression when he saw her, the affectionate look in their eyes, these... all became meaningful!

Cao Zhen didn't dare to be negligent. He chirped and said to himself:

Hua Tuo's female disciple, she...she came here? How can she do anything good? Isn't she trying to harm the prime minister and avenge her master?

Thinking of this, Cao Zhen turned around quickly. While he ordered his guards to keep a close eye on this place and the woman, he got on his horse and galloped towards the government office.

This matter was not a big deal at first, but if it involves Zhang Liao, it is no small matter. It must be reported to the Prime Minister immediately——

…

…

In Xiangyang City, in the study room of the prefect's office, as soon as Lu Xun left, Guan Lin thought of a question.

He asked Lu Xun to go to Guziyang in Jiaozhou. It seemed that he told the wrong place...

At this moment, a poem appeared in Guan Lin's mind:

——The bright appearance of ice and snow is left behind and independent. In the empty valley, the cold power cannot corrode the pavilion. The mist accompanies its tranquility, and the jade is true to its virtue!

This is a poem by Zhao Faxian from Jiaozhou in the Qing Dynasty, Ode to Drums, Foreign Flowers, and Winter Flowers!

In other words, Guziyang is an island outside Lingshan Temple in Jiaozhou, not an island outside Lingshan County in Jiaozhou...

Immediately, Guan Lin planned to send Lingju to Shandong instead!

But as soon as this idea appeared, Guan Lin figured out that something was wrong. The person he wanted to meet this time was a righteous man, one of the top ten or even top five in the Three Kingdoms!

Ling Ju... It would be okay if she was allowed to assassinate him. Let her ask... how to rescue Zhang Liao, even if it is completely different.

Immediately, Guan Lin squeaked and couldn't help but think carefully.

In fact... we can still let Lu Xun go, let him start from Jiaozhou, see his own people, and then take the offshore sea route to the islands outside Lingshan Temple...

Then it was still up to him to visit this senior who was at the same time as Zhuge Liang!

Thinking of this, Guan Lin nodded slightly.

That's it.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but murmur the last two lines of the song Ode to Drums, Foreign Flowers, and Winter Flowers - A guest came from the sea, and he suspected it was Xu Yuanzhi. The clouds are falling into the sky, just beyond your reach!

That’s right…

Apart from his father Guan Yu, the only one who was in Cao Cao's camp but whose heart was with Han, and the only one who slipped out of Cao Cao's camp from under Cao Cao's nose, was Xu Yuanzhi.

This is completely different from the records in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

According to the description in the official history, although Xu Shu went to Cao Ying because of Xu's mother, Xu's mother did look up to Liu Bei and regarded Cao Cao as a traitor.

But in fact, after Xu Shu arrived at Cao Cao's camp, Xu Shu's mother did not jump into the well at all. Xu Shu said nothing but only offered advice to Cao Cao...

He spared no effort in educating his disciple Cao Chong.

Xu Shu left after Cao Chong was bitten by a snake and died.

Guan Yu took Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi through five passes, killed six generals, and returned to Liu Bei.

Xu Shu took his mother and left Cao Ying...

But this thing is very strange. For a man like Cao Cao who can't get rid of the dirt in his eyes, would he let Xu Shu take his mother and leave him right under his nose?

Impossible, absolutely impossible——

Over here, Guan Lin is thinking carefully.

Over there in Shouchun City, there was a bang, Cao Cao slapped the table, and the pen and ink on the entire table flew up.

On the other hand, his eyes narrowed, and his whole person seemed to be filled with rage.

Hua Tuo? His ghost is really lingering! His disciples are smarter and know that the people around Conggu have taken action!

Following Cao Zhen's report and Cao Cao's anger, Cheng Yu's eyes swayed and he whispered softly: Is there a mistake? After all, this woman is treating General Zhang!

Cheng Yu originally raised another possibility... it was a misunderstanding!

Who would have thought, Huh... Cao Cao snorted coldly, his eyes tightened, and his tone became colder, Hua Tuo also said that he could cure Gu's disease! But he wants Gu Li. Opening the skull with an ax? Will Gu follow him?
