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

Chapter 287 It’s you who I indulge! Cao Gong wins people

There is always a goal in life.

Of course, for ordinary people, it doesn't matter even if it can't be achieved... life goes on as usual.

But Lu Xun is different!

He has been a person with goals and clear goals since he was a child!

Once upon a time, his goal was just like his word "Xun", which was to carry the Sun family on his back, to climb up step by step, to a position below that person and above ten thousand people!

Over the years, he has also been making progress step by step.

Even though he is walking on thin ice, even though he is facing an abyss, even though he is next to a lord like Sun Quan who is "kind on the outside but sinister on the inside".

But Lu Xun, with his intelligence and planning, was actually half-way towards success.

If he and his wife Sun Ru hadn’t gone to Jiangling;

If it weren’t for the massive fight in the Guanshan cave over the batch of Huang Laoxie’s weapons, which caused Sun Quan’s misunderstanding;

If it were not for the purpose of proving his innocence, he would take the initiative to propose an attack on Jiaozhou;

If Sun Ru hadn't suddenly appeared in Jiaozhou, if the wild goose hadn't risen again, a huge misunderstanding would have enveloped Lu Xun's mind.

If the Lu family army had not been defeated, if Bu Zhi and Lu Ji had not died in Yulin;

If Sun Quan and Lu Meng hadn't stabbed each other in the back, then Lu Xun's goal would still have been the same, even if it was to conspire with a tiger!

But now, the sword must cut and the ax must strike. Due to the circumstances, God played a big joke on Lu Xun.

His target was gone. For a time, he seemed to be falling into an abyss... There was no light in his eyes.

But suddenly, he discovered something more worth fighting for than "climbing up step by step, becoming a Lu Gao who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people".

——Zhongxing Han Dynasty!

hehe…

He had never thought about these four words in the past, and even when others mentioned them, he would sneer...and be sarcastic.

The Han Dynasty that was rotten to the bone? Is there still hope?

But unexpectedly, the miraculous Fourth Master Guan pulled him onto the "Zhongxing Han Dynasty" ship and made him, Lu Xun, deeply tied to these four words.

Although this was not a pirate ship, Lu Xun couldn't help it!

certainly…

Speaking of which, Lu Xun’s great ancestor Lu Hong served as a minister;

His great-grandfather went to Kuaiji one after another;

Lu Xun's grandfather was inferior and did not become an official;

On the contrary, his younger brother Lu Kang served as the governor of Lujiang;

From this generation onwards, the third branch of the Lu family has declined... Lu Xun's father is just a city gate captain!

Think about it from this perspective...

If only Lu Xun could achieve the "Shang Shu Ling" of the Han Dynasty that his great ancestor Lu Hong had achieved.

Doesn't that prove that it was Lu Xun who truly revived the Lu family?

His ancestors, and even the highest-ranking officials of the Lu family, were not local officials, but imperial officials, ministers of the humerus!

Isn't this another version of "climbing up step by step", isn't it climbing to the "top"?

——How can you be so proud? How can your family be so honored!

hehe…

Lu Xun couldn't help but smile.

In the past, he would not even think about an official title like Shangshu Ling, but unfortunately, because this Guan Lin... it seems that the "Shang Shu Ling" of this imperial court is not out of reach.

It was not until this moment that he, Lu Xun, understood Zhuge Ke's decision. In these troubled times - choice is always greater than effort!

Thinking this way, Lu Xun felt that the previous situation was too small.

The previous pattern was to settle down in a corner, and the trapped beasts were still fighting. So what if we can achieve "under one person" in a corner? Can the "Shang Shu Ling" of the imperial court be so prominent?

Although the current situation is forced, my horizons are wide open.

Suddenly, Lu Xun, who had escaped from the "Soochow shackles", felt the same way - the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly!

At this time, Sun Ru sighed with emotion: "No matter what, we finally escaped from Sun Quan's hands..."

Han Xuan stroked his beard and said, "Congratulations Boyan, congratulations Madam..."

at this time.

A knock on the door sounded, followed by a shout, it was Shi Hui.

Because they were in opposition at first, and then cooperated to attack Cangwu County, Shi Hui and Lu Xun were not acquainted with each other, and this kind of friendship would often heat up the relationship between the two.

"Brother Hui? Why are you so panicked?" Lu Xun opened the door and greeted him directly as brothers.

"Something happened..." Shi Hui's tone was a little nervous, but also a little vigilant, "In the main hall of the government office, Wei's envoy Sima Yi came to see his father with the imperial edict and Cao Cao's edict? I expected... the person who came was not good. , Father asked me to call Boyan to the main hall!"

"What?"

Lu Xun was shocked by Shi Hui's words...

He and Han Xuan looked at each other, and they immediately followed Shi Hui towards the main hall.

When they arrived at the door, Shi Xie's other son Shi Song had been waiting here, "Follow me, let's enter from the back hall!"

At this moment, the door to the back hall has already been opened.

With just such a detail, Lu Xun could completely feel Shi Xie's attitude...

This not only allowed Lu Xun and Han Xuan to listen quietly, but also allowed Lu Xun and Han Xuan to take the opportunity to plot against Cao Wei!

Thinking of this, Lu Xun couldn't help but sigh:

——"The relationship between the Jiaozhou scholar family and the Fourth Master Guan is really deep!" The so-called ‘estrangement but no closeness’ is nothing more than that, right? 』

Thinking of the words "not close to each other", Lu Xun thought of what he had done to Sun Quan over the years...

Immediately there was a feeling that everything had been fed to the dog!

Not long after, the two of them were led into the back hall by Shi Hui and Shi Song. Because they were only separated by a screen, the sounds in the front hall could be heard clearly.

It seemed that Sima Yi had just walked up the stone steps and was about to enter the main hall. He brought an entourage with him. He was not a tall man, but he was extraordinarily delicate...

I heard the soldier standing at the outermost edge greeting Sima Yi ask:

"It has been five years, and Duke Cao has not sent an envoy here. Why did Duke Cao suddenly send you, the envoy from Sima, to come to Jiaozhou? This road has to cross Jingzhou and Jiangdong. How did the envoy from Sima get to Jiaozhou?"

"Downstream from the river between Jingzhou and Soochow..." Sima Yi said in a gentle tone, but with the aura of an envoy from a great power, "You don't think that just Jingzhou and Jiangdong can stop my envoy from the Great Wei Dynasty from going south. Footsteps!”

Don't look at Sima Yi's arrogance.

In fact, he and his wife disguised themselves as ordinary civilians, bribed the guards and sailed down the Soochow waterway.

Often this kind of ordinary people, one man and one woman, and the soldiers guarding the gate... they will all make it convenient.

In fact, whether it is Sun Quan of Jiangdong or Guan Yu of Jingzhou, they will be happy to see the northern people moving south... These are important labor!

Because of the tone of Sima Yi's answer, dozens of officials in the lobby looked at him with curiosity. Lu Xun and Han Xuan were able to get a glimpse of Sima Yi's style in the back hall.

Lu Xun murmured in his heart: "It's neither humble nor arrogant." 』

Han Xuan twirled his beard and narrowed his eyes.

A feeling suddenly occurred to him.

"Another big businessman is coming——"

Jiangxia County, Anlu City.

In the warehouse not far from the official office, there are a large number of clay pots stored. Guan Lin sent people to purchase them during this period, as many as five thousand.

You know, it is not easy to purchase these pots of similar sizes.

During the Three Kingdoms, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the quality of pottery for daily use deteriorated and the quantity decreased day by day. The main popular ones were funerary pottery and architectural pottery...especially tiles.

(Ps: A tile refers to the entire tile at the front of the eaves, which is a building accessory that decorates and beautifies the eaves)

Therefore, even though it is only 5,000 pots, it is almost the strength of the entire Jingzhou...

What Jiangxia can buy alone is not even a fraction.

At this moment, Guan Lin was touching the earthen jar of similar size with his hand, feeling the touch inside.

But the more I touched it, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

——"Compared with the earthen jars of later generations, it is too soft...but as an incendiary bomb...ah no, it is a projectile, it should be enough. 』

Just as Guan Lin thought, the earthenware pots during the Three Kingdoms period were all gray pottery with low fire intensity and soft texture, which was significantly different from the practical hard pottery of the previous generation...

Of course, even if it is gray pottery... it is still possible to store some objects, powder, etc.

etc…

Guan Lin suddenly realized something. These neat pottery pots that were extremely difficult to collect all appeared...

Can? What about that stuff?

Where is Jiang Gan?

Guan Lin pondered.

——‘Didn’t Jiang Gan lead a team of migrant workers up the mountain to dig out the “fire sickle”? 』

——‘Why is it that it’s been almost a month and there’s no news? 』

——‘Where are the people? Is this a case of working hard but not working hard? 』

Indeed, after Guan Lin came to Anlu City, in addition to non-stop preparations for the battle, he also did one thing, three things to be precise.

Each of the original Jiang Qian, Wang Can and Ruan Yu arranged something.

Wang Can's business is to write a "little book"!

Ruan Yu's thing is to arrange a "little show"!

Jiang Qian, this figure who has been blackmailed for thousands of years by the later textbook "Jiang Qian's Stolen Books", Guan Lin thought about it. He was the head of Anlu County, so he was relatively familiar with this place. In addition, it was recorded in ancient books and documents. Somewhat capable...

Therefore... Guan Lin specially entrusted him with important tasks.

As for this important task!

Anlu City, as the "great sense of filial piety" for future generations, is very familiar to Guan Lin.

In addition to knowing that this is the "hometown of Chinese filial piety culture" and that there are "four big monsters" here, Guan Lin also knows that Xiaogan is also the "Jade Capital", "Salt Sea", "Phosphorus Mountain"...containing rich geology mineral.

Of course, we are in wartime now...

To refine the ointment and salt...there seems to be no time.

Similarly, although ointment and salt are important, they pale in comparison to "phosphorus".

Mention Lin…

What Guan Lin immediately thought of was the white phosphorus bomb in later wars, which burned skin and corroded bones. It was known as the "fire of hell" and was the most terrifying and lethal weapon in war.

certainly…

It is too difficult for Guan Lin to make missiles, so he can use the ignition point of white phosphorus, supplemented by oil.

All it takes is a fire...it can burn tens of thousands of enemy troops to death overnight!

This is much simpler than making artillery.

This is also the prototype of the "Incendiary Bomb" in Guan Lin's mind...

Compared with Qin Nu's slow molding, this "incendiary bomb" only requires a sufficient amount of white phosphorus to be realized.

Therefore, what Guan Lin sent Jiang Gan to do was to look for white phosphorus... No, the name of white phosphorus in this period was-Flint and Fire Sickle!

You know, flint and fire sickle are extremely precious fuels in this era.

As long as there are sufficient reserves of flint and fire sickles, Cao Cao will not fail to set off fire arrows when borrowing arrows from a straw boat.

As for Anlu County, which is known as "Phosphorus Mountain", Guan Lin does not remember the specific distribution of white phosphorus clearly. He only has some impressions that in later generations... it was in Sifang Mountain, Xiaowu Township.

Coincidentally, in this era... there is really a Sifang Mountain near Anlu City.

Guan Lin simply asked Jiang Qian to go to Sifang Mountain to find and dig out the flint and fire sickle!

But it has been almost a month, and Guan Lin heard that Jiang Qian was not lazy either. He took these people out in the morning and came back in the evening, but... there was a hairy flint.

Guan Lin already felt a bit unreasonable.

Zhang Xingcai was very curious and was looking at these pots with great interest at the moment, "Brother Yun Qi? What are you doing with so many pots? Can this help you burn the food and grass in Jiming Mountain?"

"If someone is a little more reliable, he will really be burned if he doesn't protect everything..." Guan Lin opened his mouth helplessly.

"Someone?" Zhang Xingcai was curious and quickly asked, "Who is it?"

Guan Lin did not answer directly, but instead ordered the soldiers and warriors on the side, "Uncle Shi, if Jiang Gan still finds nothing tonight, he will have to work hard to dig down the Sifang Mountain!"

"I don't have anything else, but I still have some strength..." Shiwu patted his chest, "Leave it to me, Master Yun Qi, just rest assured!"

Seeing Shi Wu's serious look, Guan Lin felt only two words - reliable!

As soon as I finished speaking...

"Report——" A soldier rushed in and quickly reported: "Mr. Jiang Qian asked the prefect to go to the east gate... He said that he found what the prefect asked to find and brought it back!"

"Found it?" Guan Lin was startled...

His eyes swept across the clay pots in front of him again. If the clay pots now are docile quails, then with white phosphorus, these clay pots are ferocious tigers, and they have to be the ones with wings. kind!

"If we can really use incendiary bombs these days, then let's give Cao Cao another big fire——"

With this in mind... Guan Lin's impatience is ready to come out.

"Lead the way from the front——"

——Yo yo deer calls, eating apples in the wild. I have guests, harp blowing Sheng.

The harp and harp play in harmony, and the music played is "Deer Ming" from the "Xiao Ya" chapter in the Book of Songs.

This piece of music plays a Confucian flavor with a strong Jiaozhou flavor, which makes people think that Xie, the governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou, is also a master of Confucianism.

"Have friends come from afar--"

With a staff in one hand and a book in the other, Sima Yi walked into the main hall of the government office in Guangxin City, and the officials opened their mouths to welcome him.

Sima Yi bowed and saluted, "Sima Yi, Sima Yi, who is marching from the Wei State, is ordered by the Duke of Wei to pay my respects to General Anyuan and Marquis Longdu Ting!"

Shi Xie smiled and said: "Thirteen years before Jian'an, Wei Gong sent envoys to Jiaozhou many times. I have been yearning for Wei Gong's grace for a long time. But in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, a fire in Chibi wiped out Wei Gong's desire to go south. It is a pity that I cannot open up the road between the Central Plains and Jiaozhou!"

This cannot be said to be a mockery, but it pointed out Cao Wei's scars. Sima Yi said calmly: "Wei Gong knows that the general's heart is sincere to the Han Dynasty, and Xu Du is the orthodox Han Dynasty, so Wei Gong sent his ministers to present the emperor's canonization imperial decree. The emperor conferred the title of General of Hussars on the general, led him to be the governor of the state, and granted him the title of Nanhou of the town, so as to combat the rebellion together. Please ask the general to prepare the incense case to receive the order!"

Shi Xie was startled. He didn't expect that Sima Yi had the imperial edict from the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. He was hesitating how to answer. Liu Xi, who was standing in the first place, raised his hand and said, "I Liu Xi, a native of Beihai County, fled to Jiaozhou. I dare to ask, this imperial edict." , was it written by the Emperor? Or by Duke Wei?"

Sima Yi smiled and said, "Since it is an imperial edict, it is naturally written by the emperor."

Liu Xi sneered, "Everyone in the world knows that Wei Gong coerced the emperor to order the princes. Although Jiaozhou is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, this saying is still quite popular. Could it be that... the emperor was not imprisoned in Xudu by Wei Gong? This It’s okay if my Lord doesn’t accept the imperial edict!”

Sima Yi still smiled, "In the past, the emperor was exiled, the heroes stood idle, and the Han Dynasty was almost destroyed. It was Wei Gong who welcomed the emperor to respect him and built a palace to honor him. However, Wei Gong personally risked his own life to conquer the rebellious and appease the princes. Today's Central Plains...not Wei Lord, where did the emperor come from? Not the emperor? Why the world? How did he confer the title of governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou? Where did the current General Anyuan and Marquis Longduting come from? Mr. Liu mentioned the word "imprisonment", which is shocking. I don't know the reason for the suffering of the emperor. Where was Mr. Liu at that time? Oh, by the way, Mr. Liu was avoiding trouble in Jiaozhou... In that case, why did Mr. Liu use his own disloyalty to trap Duke Wei because of his disloyalty?"

It was the first time that Zhang Chunhua heard her husband talk in front of so many people, and he couldn't help but smile.

Liu Xi said anxiously and angrily: "I'm only talking about today's affairs. Who can tell you about your bravery in the past?"

Sima Yi smiled: "General Anyuan has gone from being the prefect of Jiaozhi to the governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou today. Hundreds of scholars from the Central Plains have gone to the Central Plains to seek refuge. The names I can name include Yuan Hui, Xu Jing, Liu Ba, Cheng Bing, Xue Zong...and Mr. Liu! Isn't it because these people took refuge in General Shixie because of General Shixie's loyalty to the emperor? Isn't it because General Shixie has been canonized by the court repeatedly because of his loyalty to the emperor? Now that the imperial edict has been issued, What's wrong with begging for thieves for the Han Dynasty?"

Liu Xi still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Shi Xie, "You want me to beg a thief? I don't know who the thief is?"

Sima Yi said calmly, "Guan Yu! Sun Quan!"

"Hahaha…"

This time Liu Xi burst out laughing again, "Guan Yu was personally named the Shouting Marquis of the Han Dynasty by the Emperor, and Sun Quan was the Jiangdong under the Three Generations Foundation. He was also the Emperor's personally appointed general to conquer the captives, and the prefect of Kuaiji... How could there be any reason for Jiaozhou to attack the Han officials?" ?”

"Those who follow the emperor's orders are loyal, and those who disobey the emperor's orders are traitors. General Shixie and Mr. Liu know better than me who is loyal and who is traitorous. What's more, Jiaozhou is a remote place. I can't bear to let Jiaozhou get involved in the battlefield, but it is I heard that Lu Xun and his people were framed by Wu Hou and almost lost their heads. Instead of aimlessly attacking Soochow in the north and being threatened by Sun Quan and the Lu family, why not come with me back to Jingzhou and attack Jingzhou from the bottom of the cauldron! Wei Gong wants to open up a way to the Central Plains. The passage to Jiaozhou allows the reputation of General Shi to be spread throughout the world, and the Confucian knowledge of General Shi to be admired by scholars all over the world!"

When Liu Xi heard this, he shouted angrily: "You are so shameless in talking nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense like this, I will kill you!"

Zhang Chunhua, who was beside Sima Yi, held his sword and sneered: "Okay, so this is the Confucian attainments of Jiaozhou scholars. Why do you have friends coming from afar? Haha, I'm not afraid of people's ridicule. Let's show everyone what Jiaozhou is like." Face?"

Liu Xi drew his sword and struck, "Who are you?"

After all, because Liu Xi was a scholar, Zhang Chunhua easily held his sword in its scabbard and replied: "It's just a messenger!"

Shi Xie was slightly angry, "Everyone, stand down!"

Liu Xi forbeared and retreated...

Zhang Chunhua also retreated out of the door, but she could see that Zhongda's words still hit Shi Xie's weakness, and her husband's demeanor made her feel admiration and admiration.

However, Lu Xun behind the room was a little surprised... He frowned, somewhat incomprehensible.

Soon, his eyes turned to Shi Xie's two sons, Shi Hui and Shi Song...

Lu Xun asked in a low voice: "Why did General Shi allow Liu Xi to humiliate the envoy of Cao Wei in this way? What if we agreed to him directly? Isn't it good? Why let the envoy fight with the heroes!"

Shi Hui and Shi Song looked at each other and immediately smiled.

Such a slight smile made Lu Xun even more confused.

Finally, Han Xuan, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth. He lowered his voice, but he couldn't stop smiling.

He whispered to Lu Xun: "Bo Yan, what if I told you that all this was arranged by Mr. Yun Qi?"

ah…

Lu Xun looked at Han Xuan in disbelief. His pupils opened slightly, then widened to the limit.

He is an extremely smart person, and he was just a fan of the authorities... Now he was reminded by Han Xuan.

He understood it all.

——"How can I forget that Cao Cao is suspicious by nature? He will definitely be more willing to believe that he won it after going through many difficulties and obstacles...!" 』

Lu Xun just thought of this...

Shi Hui smiled at him, then his expression changed and he walked into the main hall with a roar: "It is obvious that your Wei Gong suffered a defeat recently. I heard that Jiangxia and Jingxiang were both defeated miserably, so I sent you to me. Dad is begging for soldiers, but there are such shameless beggars in the world! Ridiculous!"

While Shi Hui was speaking, Sima Yi had been observing Shi Xie's expression.

From the change in his eyebrows when he heard these words, Sima Yi was sure that this new young master did not mean what Shi Xie meant by his words, so he simply looked at Shi Xie with a smile.

I saw Shi Xie glancing towards the back hall with his peripheral vision. From his seat, he could see Lu Xun and Han Xuan behind the barrier. He and Han Xuan exchanged vague glances.

Shi Xie smiled and said: "Envoy Sima has a sharp tongue. I and these subordinates still need to discuss the matter of canonization. How about envoy Sima return to the post house first?"

Sima Yi bowed: "This matter is related to the future of Jiaozhou. I hope General Shi will think twice before he acts. If you want to be a friend of Duke Wei, you must not be an enemy of Duke Wei. This is what Yi said!"

Governor Shi Xie: "Envoy please——"

Sima Yi politely withdrew, and Liu Xi angrily said: "Why do you condone him, my lord!"

Shi Xie deliberately raised his voice so that Sima Yi outside the door could hear him clearly, "It's you who I condone... Mr. Cao gets people, Mr. Cao gets people!"

Sima Yi took Zhang Chunhua down Danqi.

Zhang Chunhua asked suspiciously: "Zhongda? Will this Jiaozhou scholar family... accept the canonization of Wei Gong?"

Sima Yi still kept a steady pace and whispered: "I was not sure before, but now I dare to say...he will definitely agree!"

Zhang Chunhua added: "So you won?"

Sima Yi whispered: "The Prime Minister wants me to take Lu Xun and Jiang Xia back together. If we win, we have to wait until we defeat the Guan family!"

Zhang Chunhua smiled: "Then you win too!"

Sima Yi couldn't help but smile——
