——The bath orchid soup brings you a refreshing fragrance, and the flowers and clothes make you look like a young lady.

The ancients said that when a beautiful woman emerges from the bath, she is like a hibiscus emerging from the water, or a white lotus blooming after the rain, which is beautiful and delicious.

At this moment, Sun Luyu was stepping out of the bathtub shrouded in green smoke, looking like a beauty coming out of the bath, pure and incomparably beautiful!

Her fluffy hair was tied casually on her head, and her silky top revealed her rosy skin.

I don’t know if it’s because of the short-term sadness that occurs when women lose their virginity.

It was the first time that I saw so much blood on my body, and I felt that my whole body had become dirty. She was originally quiet, but now her face was flushed and confused, and this gesture was a bit charming. Delicate taste!

"Tap...tap..."

She moved lightly, and Sun Luyu, who had been soaking in the bathtub for an entire hour, her legs were a little weak at the moment, and her expression always maintained melancholy and reverie... But she didn't know what she was thinking about.

It was as if after just one night, her mind went blank... and she was no longer the princess of Soochow who was waiting for marriage.

She is even...no longer a pure girl.

Speaking of which, Sun Luyu was in the hospital when she woke up. Da Qiao was feeding her medicine. She didn't know what she was drinking, but she could feel it. After taking the medicine, she felt much better physically.

After that, Sun Luyu noticed something strange in a certain part of her body, as if something had been torn apart. Soon... when she noticed the blood there, she seemed to understand something instantly.

water?

She asked the people at the medical department to prepare water for her. She...she just wanted to fall into the tub and never come out again.

It was Da Qiao who healed her. Because he received special instructions from Guan Lin, Da Qiao fulfilled all the little girl's requests.

Naturally, as someone who has experienced this, Da Qiao knows all this.

Huh...huh...

Accompanied by bursts of rapid aura, the more Sun Luyu thought about it, the more blank her mind became, and the more she didn't know what she should be thinking about? Or how to stop thinking wildly.

At this moment, a soft voice came from outside the curtain.

"You're done washing, right?"

The voice was soft and slow, but the tone was crisp. Sun Luyu would never forget this voice. It seemed that during the period when she lost consciousness, this voice... and the gasp caused by this voice were always in her ears. It lingered, almost touching her ears.

——It’s Guan Lin…

"Close...close..."

As he turned around, Sun Luyu's voice became stilted. Apparently... meeting Guan Lin in this kind of bathroom made Sun Luyu couldn't help but feel the unique jealousy of a daughter's family.

Different from her coquettishness, Guan Lin opened his mouth calmly and generously: "The female officer in the medical department detected a poison in your body, but... your sister has already confessed that she buried the antidote in the courtyard outside the house. Now you I’ve already taken the antidote…”

Guan Lin used this sentence to start his conversation with Sun Luyu... this special woman who had had physical contact with him.

"Where's my sister?"

After a long silence, Sun Luyu asked, her tone still a bit coquettish and shy: "Is my sister like me?"

Of course...she was asking about the body, about kidney transplantation.

Guan Lin didn't answer. To be precise, he didn't know how to answer...

If you tell Sun Luyu the truth, saying that your sister has been imprisoned and is being interrogated with water torture... you will ask about what she has done in the past few months. These words... aren't they... a bit cruel!

Seeing Guan Lin silent...

Sun Luyu plucked up the courage and asked: "So, did my sister and I fail? You...do you have to use this method to punish us and humiliate our sisters?"

Haha... Hearing this, Guan Lin smiled in his heart. If it weren't for the "assist" sent by Liu Chan, his "teammate", Sun Luyu would not be here today.

Guan Lin's heart will not be shaken or loosened at all because of this skin-to-skin contact.

He would never be merciful to his enemies, let alone the enemy's favorite daughter!

"Don't think so much..."

Guan Lin replied casually.

Sun Luyu then opened his mouth, "I should have thought that dad is no match for you. There are so many powerful uncles and uncles who are no match for you. How can my sister and I be your rival? We lost... we lost... maybe, this is The fate of my sister and me, the disaster that my sister and I deserve..."

Facing Sun Luyu's sentimental emotion, Guan Lin wanted to comfort him, but at this moment...

"Sir, everyone has arrived..."

The voice of Shiwu came from outside the door, as if... In today's current situation, Guan Lin still has many things to deal with.

"I'll be there later-"

Following Guan Lin's instructions, Shiwu retreated... Guan Lin also stood up and prepared to leave. Speaking of which... he didn't have to come to see Sun Luyu. In fact, it didn't make much sense if he did.

But...after all, he still couldn't rest assured!

Having said that...it's always nice to just think about your kidneys and not your heart,...hehe, but it's not easy to be scumbag.

Now that I have seen it, I am relieved, Guan Lin is about to leave.

Sun Luyu took a quick step and grabbed Guan Lin's hand, "Is...is it about Soochow?"

It seems that this sentence is full of worries.

Without waiting for Guan Lin to answer, Sun Luyu seemed to have thought clearly, "If...if Soochow falls, you...will you let your father go? Will you let my sister and mother go?"

After all, Sun Luyu is a kind-hearted woman, a woman who particularly cares about the comfort of her relatives.

These words also made Guan Lin stop. He turned around and looked at this special woman again.

He pondered for a moment and then said solemnly, "For your sake, I will spare your mother and your sister... As for your father..."

Paused...

Guan Lin paused for a moment and then continued, "Whether his life can be saved or not is not up to me..."

yes…

Think about the names of Guan Lin's men - Lu Xun, Zhuge Ke, Ling Tong, Gan Ning, Sun Jiao, Su Fei;

Think about the names in Hongyan - Zhou Xun, Sun Shao, Huang Bing, Tai Shixiang, Zhou Jun;

Think again about the names that have made great contributions to Soochow, but have passed away for various reasons in the past ten years-Xu Kun, Wu Jing, Sun Yi, Taishi Ci, Zhou Yu...

——Even if Guan Lin is very kind.

——But these civil and military officials! How could they let Sun Quan go?

The evening in Jiangling City was unusually cold.

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

Guan Lin walked calmly through the streets and alleys. Beside him, Gan Ning and Mi Yang were leading the way, and Shiwu was guarding Guan Lin with a three-foot long sword.

Behind him...the fish-scale armor made of thousands of iron pieces "squeaked" with his footsteps. More than a hundred heavy-armored soldiers were guarding Guan Lin.

Although these more than a hundred soldiers were silent, they could not suppress a calm and murderous aura from the neat array, as if to warn all the young men not to have any evil intentions, Mr. Yunqi This place is impregnable!

finally…

Here we are, a wine shop...

Heavy armored soldiers surrounded the wine shop and guarded it tightly, while Guan Lin led Shiwu, Gan Ning, and Mi Yang into it.

Someone led Guan Lin and his party into the cellar, where a lot of people had already gathered. There were people from the Beggar Clan dressed in regular clothes, people from Lujiang, Jianye, Xuchang... and even messengers from Luoyang, as well as people like Lu Xun, Hao Zhao and other civil and military generals that Guan Lin trusted.

Everyone had already taken their seats. Guan Lin stepped forward and took a seat on the "vacant" seat. Without too many greetings, he immediately ordered: "Let's start!"

The first one to report was a messenger from Jianye. When he reported, the messenger from Lujiang also stepped forward.

It was as if they knew each other because of their private conversations and were reporting the same thing.

"Master, Sun Quan killed the envoys of Wei in the palace of Yecheng built in the state of Wu, and humiliated the son of Wei, Cao Pi, in order to inspire people and boost morale. In addition... he imprisoned the heads of various aristocratic families and forced them to hand over their military power and money... He never Thinking about it, this move has achieved great results. In just a few days, various families were forced to hand over more than 30,000 soldiers and horses. In addition, Sun Quan issued orders to calm the people in Jiangdong and provide pensions to the families of soldiers and soldiers on the front line. Promise to re-measure the land and distribute it to the people and meritorious officials——"

Yo…

Subconsciously, when this piece of information reached Guan Lin's ears, Guan Lin felt that Sun Quan was enlightened!

This stern monarch! When did you learn to understand people's hearts like this?

To humiliate Cao Pi is to cover up his behavior of "shameless backstabbing" and "stealing the chicken but losing the rice", and then transfer the same "shameless" label to Cao Wei.

This is to divert attention, cover up one's own faults, divert conflicts... in order to win support for justice.

The purpose of imprisoning the patriarchs of various aristocratic families is to prevent these patriarchs from stabbing him in the back, and at the same time to gather all the existing forces of Soochow to unite the front and resist the enemy's attack...

As for...issuing orders to calm the people, subsidizing the families of soldiers and soldiers on the front line, and even... measuring and allocating acres of land, this...isn't it just pure benefit to the people.

Through drastic reforms, we re-activated the civil and military forces of the exile sect who were good at conquering and fighting...

Will we handle this crisis with the common people as the basis and these exiled military generals as the core?

After all... Sun Quan still walked the same path as Sun Ce!

Thinking of this, Guan Lin's brows raised slightly. In fact, Guan Lin had realized that perhaps... Sun Quan's measures could have an immediate effect, but there was no doubt that... they were just drinking poison to quench thirst.

The energy of those powerful families in Soochow is far beyond imagination.

Sun Quan could control them for a while, but he would certainly not be able to control them for a long time.

The story of Sun Ce has also shown that it is almost impossible to rule Jiangdong simply by suppressing it!

but…

When news of these reforms reaches Lujiang, the fighting spirit of the soldiers there will once again become fierce... This will be a big test for father Guan Yu!

Thinking of this, Guan Lin's eyes narrowed into slits...

He opened his mouth and asked: "How is it over there in Lujiang River?"

The messenger from Lujiang was about to report, "The second general and General Zhang Liao made an appointment to attack Lujiang and divide it equally. However, due to Xu Sheng's previous fierce battle, General Zhang Liao was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. The Wei army hardly provided any help... Coupled with the fact that Lujiang City’s soldiers are well-prepared and have abundant weapons, the second general and the Guan Army alone did not capture Lujiang... The war in Lujiang has reached a stalemate, other than that..."

Having said this, the messenger paused for a moment and then reported, "The second general sent me to inform the fourth master that he wants to call the miraculous doctor Zhongjing to treat General Zhang Liao of the Wei army... I don't know what the fourth master wants..."

——One goes down and the other goes up!

This was Guan Lin's first feeling after hearing these words.

With one increase and one decrease, Lujiang City becomes a tough nut to crack...

The most important thing is that this battle cannot be postponed. Cao Wei has temporarily retreated, but they will not retreat forever, nor will they tolerate it forever. Soochow must be destroyed before they recover, otherwise things will change.

This...is not easy.

As for... let Zhang Zhongjing rescue Zhang Liao!

Alas... Dad still puts the word "righteousness" first.

Of course, Zhang Liao is also a righteous man, and Guan Lin will not disobey his father's wishes.

There is only one thing…

He dared to send the miraculous doctor Zhong Jing, but would they dare to take over the Wei army?

Aren't you afraid that this will bring unnecessary suspicion to their general?

"I know..." Finally...

Guan Lin solved these two problems in one sentence.

Not to mention the treatment of Zhang Liao, the series of measures to deal with Lujiang and Sun Quan... In fact, Guan Lin already had an idea.

The plan generally remains unchanged, still using the identities of the two tigers Sun Luyu and Sun Luban!

The cards are in Guan Lin's hand. As long as they are used properly, they can use their identities to undermine the fighting spirit and fighting spirit of the Lujiang army and people, and even the Jiangdong army and people.

However, the specific implementation strategy still needs further thinking and improvement.

"continue--"

Guan Lin went on to say that at this time...one by one the messengers began to report, nothing more than information from Xiangyang, Wancheng, Chaisang and other places...

Following these reports, Guan Lin also gave corresponding instructions in turn, and then motioned for them all to retreat.

As everyone resigned...

In the cellar of this wine shop, except for a group of Guan Lin's subordinates, the absolute core backbone and confidants, there were only disciples of the Beggar Clan. At the same time... several new disciples of the Beggar Clan walked in, and what they reported was from the north. information.

"Sir, Ma Jun has already made inquiries. After all, he has searched all over Luoyang City with all his strength, but there is still no whereabouts of him... It seems... in the whole of Luoyang, everyone knows that King Wei has an important Chenglong grandson. Son-in-law, but who is he? Where is he? No one knows anything..."

--"really…"

Guan Lin secretly thought to himself, ever since he defeated Li Miao and sent "Ma Jun" to become Cao Cao's prince-in-law, and was entrusted with the important task, Guan Lin has always been concerned about this, and has always told Lingju and his second brother Guan Xing to pay close attention. Zhuo Majun’s position and movements...

If Soochow is a disease of scabies, then this Ma Jun is a serious problem!

Obviously, Cao Cao's Prince Consort was very secretive and cautious... This was in line with Cao Cao's always cautious and suspicious character.

At this time... Liu Ye, the representative of Mianshui Villa, couldn't help but speak, "If it is true as Yun Qi said, and if Ma Jun can also imitate the flying ball, then maybe the situation on the battlefield will completely change..."

Thinking of this, he made a bold guess, "Cloud flag? Isn't there something that can counter the flying ball?"

Liu Ye's tone was a little impatient, as if he was a little worried... about the future battlefield pattern.

Guan Lin explained calmly: "Mr. Liu overestimated this flying ball. In fact, this flying ball has weaknesses...because the speed is not fast. Once there is preparation and warning on the ground, it will disperse quickly. It's easy to dodge! Our previous successes with Wancheng's divine arrows and Fancheng's sea of ​​​​purgatory fire were just because the enemy didn't know what they were? We were unprepared."

"Just imagine, if there are hot air balloons on both sides of the battlefield in the future, it will be equivalent to opening up the field of vision. There will no longer be any secrets in the formation of troops between the two sides, and there will be no ambushes or conspiracies... Both sides are quite equal. Yu Ming is playing cards, maybe... the development of the war at that time has returned to the Spring and Autumn Period, back to the era of hard power competition! Therefore... what I worry about is never that the flying ball is imitated by Ma Jun, but that we Mian Every invention in Water Villa will be copied by him, and this kind of arms race... is what I least want to see."

Guan Lin mentioned something very important...

A very important point is that both sides have clear cards, and the content of the competition has changed from conspiracy to an open and hard-power competition.

It's hard to say whether this is progress or regression brought about by technology...

But there is no doubt... maybe the emergence of hot air balloons, maybe technology has entered this era ahead of schedule...

It will save the lives of many people in this war to unify the world, and it will make the current war between "justice" and "propriety"... reappear on this land of China.

Because during the Spring and Autumn Period, the two countries were so "polite" when fighting!

If one party does not respect martial ethics, it is not even qualified to go to the battlefield.

At that time, there was a "ceremony" in everything. When the two countries went to war, they had to be famous. You can't say that I can't stand you, so I want to beat you. You have to make it clear that I'm beating you to steal your land.

After writing it...you need to send an envoy to deliver the letter of challenge.

The country being called to war must also be polite, hold a banquet to entertain the enemy's envoys, play music and compose poems, and agree on the location and time of the battle in a cheerful atmosphere. They must also agree on the number of people. There cannot be more on one side than on the other. few.

There are also regulations on the time and place for war. It cannot be fought where people live, it cannot be fought when the farmers are busy, and it cannot be fought when there is a plague or disaster in the enemy's country. The most taboo thing is a sneak attack.

If a country goes to war without notifying it in advance, it will definitely be despised by other countries.

There are even more rules on the battlefield. You have to beat the drum before opening, which means, are you ready? You must wait for the opponent to beat the drum in response... before the two sides can engage in battle.

During the battle, both sides must abide by three principles. The first is not to seriously injure, which means that once the enemy is injured, he cannot make up for it and must put it back for treatment.

Secondly, if you encounter a gray-haired person on the battlefield, you must not capture him as a prisoner.

Third, do not use obstacles. When fighting, you cannot block the enemy in narrow terrain. You must fight openly and openly in open areas.

This is what is called in the Spring and Autumn Period - Wude!

During the Warring States Period, there were endless battles...

There is also the emergence of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and the sentence "A soldier never tires of deceit" has refreshed the lower limit of martial ethics again and again...

This is why... in later generations, Teacher Ma, a master of Hunyuan Xingyi Tai Chi, would say - young people do not respect martial ethics!

Because Teacher Ma pays attention to the martial ethics of the Spring and Autumn Period...

It is completely different from the current "martial ethics".

actually…

If you really want to abandon all intrigues and tricks, and return to the way of playing a state of etiquette in the "Spring and Autumn Period"...

They all fight openly and openly, and they all compete for hard power... It has advantages for Guan Lin, and of course there will be challenges, but for the vast number of Chinese compatriots, it will undoubtedly... reduce a lot of damage!

This is something Guan Lin likes to see...

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

Guan Lin thought for a while and finally brought his thoughts back from the "arms race" to reality...

At this time... a disciple of the Beggar Clan hesitated for a moment, and even looked around at the people around him. His meaning was very clear.

He has more confidential things to report to Guan Lin.

Guan Lin saw it and signaled everyone to disperse...

This time, even Lu Xun, Liu Ye, Gan Ning and others also retreated. After a while, only Shiwu stood between Guan Lin and the Beggar Clan disciple...

"What can I say now?"

"We have contacted Wei Xi according to Master Yunqi's order -" This Beggar Clan disciple's surname is Zhuang. In a book of names specially written by Guan Lin, his codename is - Zhuang Yifang.

He was a familiar face that Guan Lin saw often. He received news from behind enemy lines and reported it to Guan Lin as soon as possible.

Judging from the pockets on his body, he is a six-bag disciple. To be able to reach this level, he has made great achievements in the Beggar Clan in the past.

At this moment, Zhuang Yifang still seemed very cautious. He didn't open his mouth until the last footsteps outside disappeared, "Then Wei Xi told us that he planned to launch a rebellion while Cao Cao was still in Luoyang and robbed the emperor. , the two assassinate Cao Cao!"

Well…

Although Guan Lin was prepared, Zhuang Yifang's words still surprised him.

Launch a rebellion and plunder the emperor——

Assassinate Cao Cao——

Guan Lin was not surprised at all that Wei Xi would do this, because historically he had done so two years later...if his friend hadn't leaked the secret, it would have almost been a success.

As for now... Guan Lin has only one thought in his mind.

——"Wei Xi, Wei Xi, are you forcing me to open the main plot..."

——‘If you rebel at this time, you will be doomed! 』

Indeed...if he couldn't see clearly the true face of his friend, then...no matter whether the rebellion was advanced two years, one year, or two months, the final outcome would definitely be a failure!

With this in mind... Guan Lin's cheeks became serious. He stretched out his hand and gestured to Zhuang Yifang: "Come here..."

Zhuang Yifang quickly got in front of Guan Lin.

Guan Lin's voice was very delicate: "It's a very important matter this time. I'm not worried about Lu Youjiao being alone in Luoyang... I plan to send you there, and I'll tell you what to do..."

this…

Zhuang Yifang was startled. In an instant, he seemed to see the hope of adding "two more bags" to the "cloth bag" on his waist.

Moving the capital to Luoyang, many matters were inseparable from Cao Cao, so these days, Cao Cao was the leader and the two leaders.

Fortunately, one was Li Miao and the other was Cao Zhi. Because they built Luoyang City, they were almost Cao Cao's right-hand men for a period of time and helped him handle many matters.

It was at this stall that Cao Cao couldn't spare any time to focus on the emperor.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Deyang Palace was very tense. Wei Xi, a talented person, was standing in front of the Emperor Liu Xie. He was holding a writing brush and writing quickly on the paper purchased from a merchant at a high price...

After finishing, his friend Chen Yi handed the article to the emperor.

The article is just an article, but if you read it according to the "engraved version" that Wei Xi and Chen Yi informed the emperor in advance...avoid those useless words and only look at the key words...then it is a different kind of article, a different kind scenery.

For a moment, the emperor was shocked after seeing it, and asked tremblingly: "You...have you already thought about it? Are you really...really going to take action?"

Because the emperor knows talented people, and because Chen Yi is in charge of the guards around the emperor...

Therefore, before that, Chen Yi specifically blocked the people around the emperor so that the emperor Liu Xie could speak without any worries.

It's just that... because the previous failures of Dong Cheng and Fu Wan were still vivid in his mind, Liu Xie was a little scared. He lost Dong Meiren once and lost Queen Fu once. He... He didn't know who he would lose next time.

While comforting Wei Xi, he said: "The thief Cao's treasonous intention is clearly exposed. Now that he has been abandoned by the people of Xudu and retreated to Luoyang, his foundation is unstable and the people's hearts are not solid. This is a God-given opportunity... If he can be killed in one fell swoop Cao Cao, the five thousand soldiers and horses I brought from Yecheng can control Luoyang City... I have been able to contact the Guan family father and son in Jingzhou. When the time comes... they will definitely return from Xudu City and go north to King Qin to rescue him. It became…”

this…

Liu Xie panicked. Dong Cheng also said the same thing during the Clothes Edict.

However, looking at Wei Xi's determined eyes, Liu Xie murmured: "Then...then what should I do?"

Wei Xi knelt down with a "pop" sound...

Seeing his friend kneeling, Chen Yi also knelt down quickly.

Wei Xi's voice chanted again, "Your Majesty, please issue an edict. I will help your Majesty get rid of this thief. There are still loyal and righteous people in the Han Dynasty. How can we let this thief bully Your Majesty! Even...even..."

"What?" Liu Xie asked quickly.

"Even if we fail to kill Cao Cao..." Wei Xi said carefully, "I have other plans, and we will take advantage of the chaos... to rescue His Majesty to Mangdang Mountain, where soldiers and horses will escort His Majesty south... to Xu Escape towards the capital! If the Guan family and his son hear that His Majesty is escaping, they will definitely go north to meet him. In this way... Your Majesty will be able to escape from the tiger's den..."

——Tiger's den?

Liu Xie pursed his lips. He actually wanted to say, "I'm afraid I might escape from the tiger's den and end up in the wolf's den again..."

But when the words came to his lips, he still swallowed them.

"Are you... sure about it?"

"Foolproof!" Following Wei Xi's words...

Liu Xie untied his belt, and the bloody words on it were clearly visible, "I have written this edict a long time ago, general, take it... I have lost my uncle, my beauty, and my queen. I only hope... I will not do it again." Lost the general!"

The last time Liu Xie issued an edict to Dong Chengyi, he said, "My life and the Han Dynasty's century-old foundation have been entrusted to you. You can't let me down!" 』

It seems that, just a few years later, this suffering emperor's state of mind is different again...

He just wants to live, and he just wants the people around him to live. He wants to escape from this suffering forever and be an ordinary white person...

What he longs for most is freedom!

Wei Xiacheng took the edict in fear and bowed his head solemnly, "Your Majesty, don't worry, even if I am shattered to pieces, I will live up to the emperor's kindness!"

Liu Xie waved his hand, "Go, go..."

Wei Xi retreated to the palace gate, and Liu Xie suddenly thought of something again. He chased him a few steps nervously, "General Wei, come back...call him back quickly!"

Chen Yi's eyes were rolling, as if he was thinking about something or pondering something in his mind. Suddenly he heard Liu Xie shouting, and he quickly caught up with Wei Xi, "Brother Wei, His Majesty calls you back..."

Wei Xi hurriedly returned to the palace...

Liu Xie asked nervously in a low voice: "This matter...this matter...did you inform the traitor of the Guan family in Jingzhou in advance? And the Shiro of the Guan family...do you have any explanation?"

Just like Liu Xie chanted this "Guan family traitor"...

Nowadays, in the whole of Luoyang and the whole of Cao Wei, no one knows that the King of Wei... has repeatedly suffered big losses from this rebellious son of the Guan family.

Therefore, Liu Xie specifically mentioned this name, and he was a little eager to see through Guan Lin's so-called "account".

Wei Xi solemnly replied: "I have already told his people the news, but...calculating the time, it is likely that he has not received it yet, so naturally there will be no explanation, but...I expected that Guan Yunchangyi and Bo Yuntian, finally The son of the Han Dynasty, Guan Lin... even though he has the reputation of being a rebellious son, has repeatedly carried out actions to prosper the Han Dynasty. He... will definitely support me and give me great help!"

Liu Xie seemed a little disappointed for a moment, and he could only wave his hand feebly.

"Okay, okay, go quickly...go..."
