Long Fei and others did not leave in a hurry. They returned to the hidden place on the top of the mountain. They took the jade seal and slowly admired it. Sure enough, it was crystal clear, round and smooth. As recorded in the history books, one corner was damaged and was repaired with gold.
Repaired. Other than that, the protection was quite good, and several people were amazed.
"This is the jade seal! If it were replaced by food, it would be enough to last a lifetime!" Dian Wei's eyes widened and his mouth opened.
Huang Zhong said lightly: "What's a lifetime? I can't finish it in ten lifetimes!"
After everyone had seen it, Long Fei put the jade seal away again. Zhao Yun said: "This time we have completed the task, can we go home? After staying in this mountain for more than ten days, the smell on our body is really bad!
"
Long Fei shook his head: "No, there is still one person who hasn't come yet, let's wait a little longer!"
Although Huang Zu was captured, his father died unexpectedly. Sun Ce could not wait to cut this Huang Zu into pieces right now. The frightened Huang Zu repeatedly begged for mercy and kept muttering: "General, have mercy! General, have mercy! General Sun was killed by Gan Ning, and I
It doesn’t matter at all!”
"Gan Ning is not your subordinate yet?"
Huang Zu knelt on the ground and quickly explained: "Gan Ning was originally a water thief, but he just stayed here temporarily. He was recommended by Liu Biao and is Liu Biao's man!"
Sun Jian's second son is named Sun Quan. He has a strange appearance, a high nose and red hair, which is quite similar to the barbarians in the Western Regions. Unlike Sun Jian, this son likes to be quiet and not active. He usually reads and writes. He speaks in an easy-going manner and is kind to others.
Everyone liked him very much. This time Sun Jian went on the expedition, he also wanted Sun Quan to see the outside world and feel the cruelty of war, so he was specially brought out. Sun Quan was only twelve years old and was already a young adult. Many times it was inconvenient for his father and brother to come forward.
This child can solve the problem easily.
For example, during the Suizao Alliance, Yuan Shu listened to Liu Dai and Kong Xiu's slander, and cut off Sun Jian's food for a period of time. Sun Jian's army was in dire straits, so Sun Quan was taken by Sun Jian as a child to ask Yuan Shu for food. Sun Quan was smart and cute.
, the flattering Yuan Shu was particularly happy. Not only did he agree to provide him with food, he even made an appointment with Sun Jian to marry his daughter, and betrothed his youngest daughter to Sun Quan.
Seeing that his brother Sun Ce wanted to kill Huang Zu, Sun Quan hurriedly stopped him: "Brother, Huang Zu can't be killed! My father's body is still with Liu Biao. Killing Huang Zu now will only make Liu Biao more hostile to us. It's better to exchange Huang Zu for his father's body."
For good!"
Cheng Pu, Han Dang and others also nodded. As soon as Sun Jian died, Sun Ce became their leader, and Sun Ce had to make decisions in all matters. Sun Quan continued: "Huang Zu was just a mediocre man, but our father's body is particularly special.
It's important. We can catch Huang Zu and avenge his father sooner or later. Why rush? And there is only one father. Please think twice."
Sun Ce was not a willful person, so he agreed after hearing Sun Quan's words. He sent Huang Gai to protect Sun Quan to Jingzhou. When Liu Biao saw that the Sun family had sent a child, he felt embarrassed and felt that the Sun family's orphans and widowed mothers were very pitiful. The two parties hit it off.
Liu Biao agreed to use Sun Jian's body in exchange for his general Huang Zu. Huang Zu was a member of the Huang clan in Jingzhou. Although he was not very capable, he had the leadership of the Huang clan. Without the support of the Huang clan, Liu Biao's Jingzhou would lose Jiangxia. But once Sun Jian died,
If it no longer threatens you, just change it.
The substitution went smoothly, and Huang Zu was treated like a hero after being replaced. Kuai, Cai, and Huang, the major families in Jingzhou, sent people to welcome him. In the eyes of these people, a defeated general suddenly became a hero who defeated Sun Jian.
, a hero who endured humiliation and endured heavy burdens. Liu Biao not only did not blame Huang Zu for his incompetence, but also promoted him to a noble rank, made him a loyal and brave general and the governor of Jiangxia, and gave him fertile land and beautiful women.
The real hero of the Battle of Yanshan, Gan Ning, was still Sima. He was ostracized in the army and became the god of plague that no one wanted to see. Because he killed Sun Jian, he almost died under Sun Ce's sword. Huang Zu
He gave Gan Ning a cold look. If he was careless, he would be insulted at first, and at worst he would be beaten with a military stick because he was disrespectful to the superior. Gan Ning was beaten until his skin was torn, and he had no place to say anything about his suffering.
"Brother! We really can't stay here any longer. Sooner or later, all of us brothers will die in the hands of Huang Zu'er!" Pan Zhang looked at Gan Ning, who was lying on the couch with his lower body beaten to a bloody pulp. The atmosphere was very tense.
Gan Ning endured the severe pain and turned to Jiang Qin who was applying medicine to himself: "What happened to what I told you? Is there any news?"
Jiang Qin nodded: "Long Fei was originally a general of Wang Yun's family. He was appreciated by Dong Zhuo. In less than three months, he was personally named General Yang Wei by His Majesty. He commanded four of the eight schools in Xiyuan. He had about 40,000 soldiers and horses, and even more tigers.
Zhao Yun, who is imprisoned and can fight three generals alone, is like a fish in water under Dong Zhuo's command, and he has a posture that surpasses Wen Hou Lu Bu!"
"That's all?" Gan Ning asked again, "What did this person do before? Where is he from?"
Jiang Qin said: "It is said that he is from Yongzhou Mei. No one knows what he did before, but he is very skilled in martial arts. He and Zhao Yun were the ones who broke into Sun Jian's camp a few days ago and escaped unharmed!"
"So, this Long Fei is very powerful?" Zhou Tai was gearing up, as if he wanted to compete with Long Fei.
Gan Ning lay down again: "That day at Yanshan, when he left, he said that if you don't like it here, you can go to Chang'an to find him. Do you think we should go find him?"
"No!" Pan Zhang said: "Dong Zhuo is the leader of all evil in the world, and everyone wants to get rid of him quickly. We defected to Dong Zhuo's men, why don't we be laughed to death by others?"
"Do you think they won't laugh at us now?" Zhou Tai sneered: "Once you are a thief, you will always be a thief. For people like us who have been water thieves, those officials look down on us at all and are willing to give us advice when something goes wrong.
, when nothing happens, we are nothing! We might as well be upright thieves! If you want to do it, be a big thief!"
Gan Ning asked Jiang Qin, "Fourth brother, what do you think?"
"Although I didn't see what Long Fei found from Sun Jian that day, according to my guess, it is very likely to be a jade seal!" Jiang Qin kept talking, and quickly gave Gan Ning the medicine and pulled the quilt.
He came over and stamped it on Gan Ning: "If it is really a jade seal, it means that this person has great ambitions. He is just a passerby with Dong Zhuo, and this person comes from a humble background. Maybe he can really get along with us!"
"The fourth brother is right!" Zhou Tai nodded: "There are differences between people. We can't mix with these officials. Just like Long Fei, who was born in a family, no one should look down on the other! Third brother, you
What do you say?"
Pan Zhang sighed: "Hey! You have finished talking, what more can I say? No matter what, I will go wherever you go. Even if we die, our brothers will die together!"
After waiting for three full days, there was no movement in Xiangyang City. Sun Ce of Fancheng did not return to Changsha, but led his army north to Nanyang. Jingzhou entered peace again. Officials at all levels calmed down again, called friends, and went on mountain tours.
The water looked peaceful. Dian Wei was really bored and clamored to eat meat. Long Fei looked into Zhao Yun's and Huang Zhong's eyes, and they were as eager as Dian Wei. Long Fei agreed.
After entering Xiangyang City, I first found an inn and took a comfortable bath to relieve my fatigue. After changing my clothes, I went to the streets. Although Xiangyang is not big, it is extremely prosperous. Compared with the capital of the past,
Luoyang is not bad at all. Jingzhou is a good place. It has not experienced war for decades, and even the recent Yellow Turban Rebellion did not burn Jingzhou. Jingzhou has become a holy land isolated from the original version of the Chinese version.
There are all kinds of people on the street, people doing small business, soldiers, officials, rich and poor people coming and going in an endless stream. Everyone is doing their own things, and it is peaceful. The teahouses and wine shops are also overcrowded.
Here, literati and poets in long robes talked about poetry and scriptures, and talked loudly, fearing that others would not understand their point of view.
They randomly found a tavern and the four of them walked in. The tavern was not big, there were only a dozen small tables inside, and the innermost tables were occupied by a group of people who were talking loudly. The waiter brought Long Fei and others to
On the small tables near the window. Before the waiter could speak, Dian Wei's thick voice shouted for wine and meat. The waiter went down to prepare with a smile on his face.
Compared with several taverns on the main street, the business here is a bit deserted. The seven or eight small tables are not full, and the shopkeeper is busy calculating accounts behind the counter. There is a waiter dedicated to serving the few scribes who talk loudly. There are scribes in total.
There were five people, and the person in charge was a young man with a young age and a thin face. He looked at Long Fei and nodded slightly. The four people next to him were also young. The one who spoke was the youngest young man sitting in the last seat:
"When it comes to great events in the world, only a hero can emerge to reverse the calamity, save His Majesty from fire and water, rebuild the prosperous age of our Han Dynasty, end the war like Emperor Guangwu did back then, and restore peace to the people! If there is such a person,
I am willing to follow you and live up to what I have learned!"
The second person on the left laughed and said: "Hahaha, fifth brother must be drunk! If there is such a person, others may not like you. If you want, please invite someone like the elder brother!"
"The eldest brother is the eldest brother! I am me! The eldest brother pays attention to the rule of law, and I pay attention to the rule of martial arts! The concepts are different!"
The first person on the right said: "The world is in chaos, and the people are living in dire straits. Civil governance can save the people from the pain of war, but martial governance will only add to chaos!"
The first person on the left said: "I don't agree with this. Although civilized treatment is gentle, it is very time-consuming. As the saying goes, long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain. I am already seriously ill, so I should use strong medicine to save the people from fire and water!"
The four of them all looked at the man in the middle. The man had his eyes closed, wore a high crown on his head, and had a calm expression. His eyebrows were particularly thick, and there was a tuft of white hair on the left eyebrow. The four of them waited for a long time before the man showed up.
Slowly opening his eyes: "Whether it is civil or military governance, we need wise masters and good ministers. Do you think we, the Han Dynasty, have wise masters and good ministers?" This sentence made the four of them deep in thought.
Long Fei listened for a long time and suddenly clapped his hands and said: "If I'm not mistaken, these are the five permanent members of the Ma family? I'm here, Long Fei, I was lucky enough to hear the high opinions of the five permanent members of the Ma family. I really learned a lot!" The five people were stunned, and they all
