Xu Kang took the lead, looking excitedly at the Wubao standing among the rocks in the distance.

Xujiapu was originally a mountain stronghold captured by Xu Ding. Because of its steep terrain, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he regarded it as his foothold. Later, as the number of people increased, he gradually expanded its scale until it became what it is now.

A look.

Although Xu Ding was elected as the lord of the castle, most people inside knew that there was another lord above him, and the two mistresses living deep inside the castle were proof. But many people didn't know who it was.

Now the answer is revealed, Marquis Kangting is finally coming to Xujiabao. When the news comes out, Xujiabao is filled with excitement.

Xu Ding stood at the front of the welcoming team, looking at the empty road in the distance with some anxiety.

Although Xu Chu said that his lord was a kind-hearted and good man, he had never seen it before. Xu Ding felt a little nervous. Then he secretly blamed himself. He had made it through so many life-and-death battles, but now he was like a little kid.

As a daughter-in-law, she is really inferior.

Xu Ding took a deep breath and managed to calm his erratic heartbeat. He raised his head and saw a cavalry slowly approaching.

Walking at the front was a young general who was handsome to a bit beautiful. Xu Ding, who had already learned about Xu Kang's appearance from Xu Chu, immediately stepped forward, knelt down on the roadside, and said: "My subordinate Xu Ding, please see.

Lord."

Xu Kang quickly dismounted and helped him up, saying: "Brother Xu, there is no need to be so polite. You ignored the danger and came all the way from Yuzhou to Huainan, and you also gathered my brothers from Chang'an. It is I who should thank you."

Xu Ding said humbly: "My lord, I'm sorry. This is what my subordinates should do."

When everyone returned to the castle, Xu Ding had arranged a grand banquet to celebrate.

Xu Kang was very satisfied with Xu Ding's performance during this period, and naturally tried to win over him in every possible way, making Xu Ding as happy as a child.

After the banquet, Xu Kang returned to the inner house, where Zou Yuan and Diao Chan were waiting for him with red faces.

Before they met, they had been thinking about it, but now that they had met, the two of them remembered the identities they had announced to the public at the time of expediency.

It was embarrassing for a while.

When Xu Kang saw the two peerless beauties again, his already tipsy head was completely intoxicated, and his eyes immediately became hot.

When the serving maid saw this, she obediently withdrew.

Seeing that something was wrong, Diao Chan took the first step and said: "You two are reunited after a long separation, so let's have a good chat. I'll leave first." After saying that, she lifted up her skirt and ran away.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he took two steps, he was grabbed by Zou Yuan and said: "You can't leave."

Before Diao Chan could protest, Xu Kang had already walked to the two of them, hugged each other with one arm and said with a smile: "None of you can leave tonight."

Diao Chan immediately started struggling and said angrily: "You, please let go."

Xu Kang didn't say anything, and he bit her small mouth with a big mouth "Ah wu". As he licked his tongue, a strong smell of alcohol was passed over by him.

Diao Chan seemed to be drunk all of a sudden, her cheeks were as red as rouge, and her body was so limp that she couldn't find any place to bear any force.

The lips parted for a long time, and a transparent silk thread was pulled apart. Diao Chan became even more embarrassed and buried her head in his shoulder for a moment.

Xu Kang seemed not to feel anything and turned to look at Zou Yuan.

Zou Yuan blushed and did not resist, just buried her head on his other shoulder.

Xu Kang looked around at the two beautiful women who still refused to raise their heads, and suddenly burst into laughter.

The three of them staggered into the bedroom without knowing who was supporting whom.

A night of red candles left tears, and two peach blossoms were drunk.

When Xu Kang woke up the next day, it was already noon. He rubbed his head and found that although the hangover pain was not severe, it was still very uncomfortable.

Zou Yuan slept quietly next to him, wrapped tightly in a quilt, except for his black hair, which was spread out and hung down to the bed.

Xu Kang gently stroked her soft hair. Zou Yuan might be too tired, so he just shrank his head into the quilt and continued his deep sleep. It seemed that he was too crazy yesterday, but there seemed to be two people, Diao Chan.

Are you already up?

Looking at the bright light outside, it was indeed getting late. Xu Kang put on a coat. He didn't want to wake Zou Yuan, so he stepped over him in one step.

Unexpectedly, his footing slipped and he seemed to have stepped on a ball of butter, and then an earth-shattering scream sounded from under his feet.

Xu Kang was startled by the scream, and his body that had been stable suddenly fell over and hit Zou Yuan heavily.

Then, another scream sounded, and Zou Yuan sat up all of a sudden.

"What happened?" Zou Yuan looked at Xu Kang in confusion, and then at Diao Chan who was getting up from the ground.

Xu Kang also looked at Diao Chan in surprise and said, "Why are you sleeping on the ground?"

Diao Chan said with tears in her eyes: "How do I know? And why did you step on me?" After saying that, she found that Xu Kang was looking at her body longingly. Diao Chan lowered her head and saw that there was nothing on her body.

He was shocked. He jumped on the bed, snatched the quilt from Zou Yuan, and wrapped it around himself.

Zou Yuan, who was originally in a daze, was stunned by her actions, and then he realized what he was doing and screamed: "What are you doing?" He reached out and grabbed the other end of the quilt.

The two stunning beauties each wrapped one end of the quilt and pulled it off here and there. The spring light flashed like a slideshow and instantly blinded Xu Kang's eyes.

He was breathing heavily, his eyes were red, and his saliva was almost drooling. The coat he had already put on was torn cleanly in two times, and he said with a lewd smile: "What else do you need to cover? We are already an old married couple. I'm here."

"After that, he threw himself on the bed again.

After a period of madness, the three of them completely let go of their hearts, hugged each other, and talked about their respective experiences in the past year since they were separated.

Not long after they left Chang'an, they were intercepted by Zhang Ji's pursuers.

Fortunately, Zhang Ji was unwell at the time, and his nephew Zhang Xiu was leading the army. After the two sides faced off for a period of time, Xun You finally persuaded him to retreat. For this reason, Zhang Ji not only dismissed Zhang

He was responsible for all the duties and gave him heavy responsibilities.

Later, when he entered Yuzhou, he met Gong Du, the commander of the Yellow Turban Canal, and Liu Pi.

However, these two people claimed to be old acquaintances of Xu Kang and wanted to meet them. At first, the two parties did not know each other's details, so Diao Chan met them as Xu Kang, but unexpectedly, she almost caused trouble.

Liu Pi and Gong both knew Xu Kang when he was a Yellow Turban thief. Although they hadn't seen each other for so many years, they still remembered his general appearance. After seeing Diao Chan, they thought he was a liar in disguise, so they mobilized their troops to come.

attack.

Fortunately, the news of Xu Kang's appearance in Jizhou came at that time. Xun You felt that there was no need to hide it, so he told the truth. In this way, the two parties could barely live in peace.

After that, the army concealed its identity, gathered the refugees, settled in Xujiabao, and other events. In Zou Yuan and Diao Chan's chattering stories, they were as thrilling as each adventure story.

In fact, Xu Kang had already heard these things from Xun You and Wang Can on the way here, but now that he was told them by his two women, his feelings were even more obvious.

Xu Kang kissed their foreheads and said movedly: "I've suffered so much for you. It's all my fault. I've made you so worried."

A simple word of self-blame moved the two girls. Zou Yuan gently blocked Xu Kang's mouth with her fingers and said: "Don't say that, since we married you, we have already been mentally prepared for this."

."

Diao Chan also leaned over and said, "You must also promise us to take good care of yourself."

The three of them kissed each other for a while, until the sun set in the west and it was getting dark, then Xu Kang got up.

Another dinner party is ready.

Xu Kang was overjoyed when he heard that Zhou Yu asked to see him. Without waiting for Xu Ding to arrange a time, he personally led a group of personal guards into Chaoxian County.

Zhou Yu obviously did not expect that Xu Kang would come to see him in person. After all, his reputation was only known to most people after the Battle of Chibi. Today, Zhou Yu's reputation comes more from his talent in music.

"The song is wrong, Zhou Lang took care of it." This was the evaluation of him by scholars in Yangzhou at that time.

However, based on this, it is obviously not enough for Xu Kang, who is already a high-ranking member of the party, to come and see him in person. After all, once this matter gets out, it will definitely bring Zhou Yu's reputation to a higher level.

Such an invitation is an exciting event for any nineteen-year-old student.

But when Xu Kang saw Zhou Yu, there was no trace of flattery on his face.

The faint smile seems to have become Zhou Yu's trademark, and it will not change in ten thousand years.

If an old scholar who has achieved fame or is obsessed with learning has such a self-cultivation, Xu Kang would not be surprised. But Zhou Yu is only nineteen years old now, so this has to be admired.

A simple banquet was served, and Zhou Yu's purpose was very clear, which was to get help from Xu Kang and jointly resist Lu Kang's competition for Lujiang.

He even promised that when the matter was completed, he would give the four counties south of Lujiang River to Xu Kang as a thank-you gift.

But how could Xu Kang care about those four counties? What he cared more about was how to take Zhou Yu under his command.

Xu Kang said eagerly: "As long as Brother Gongjin is willing to work with me to help the world, a small Lujiang River is no big deal."

Zhou Yu was stunned and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you are exaggerating. I am just a scholar. How can I help you to help the world?"

Xu Kang waved his hand and said: "Brother Gong Jin, there is no need to be humble. I might as well say something clearly. My goal is Jiangdong, so I don't want to be an enemy of Yuan Shu for the time being. The dispute over Lujiang is obviously a matter between the two governors of Zhou Shang and Lu Kang.

, in fact, it is Yuan Shu who is really determined to win this place."

"The river is like a natural dividing line, dividing Yangzhou into two. What makes Lujiang different from Jiangdong is that in my mind, there is a difference between far and near."

"Since Yuan Shu has set his base in Shouchun, at least he will never give up the land north of the Yangtze River to anyone. If I send troops to Lujiang now, it will definitely arouse Yuan Shu's dissatisfaction, which will be extremely detrimental to my future fight for Jiangdong."
