Chapter 212 There are three people facing each other, and there will only be two left in the future.
——"If you are proud of life, you must enjoy it to the fullest. Don't let the golden bottle stand in front of the moon, haha...haha!"
Under the bright moonlight.
A "madman" was walking on the street, and his bold and uninhibited words immediately attracted the attention of the patrolling officers and soldiers at this sensitive moment.
Some officers and soldiers were eager to try, "It's the third watch now, and General Zhang has ordered a curfew? Who is so arrogant? He still dares to walk on the street."
--curfew!
"Xiao" means night, and "ban" means prohibition.
There was a night ban in the Han Dynasty, and people were not allowed to walk on the streets after the third watch.
When Cao Cao was young, when he was a lieutenant in the north of Luoyang, he made a five-color stick. During a night patrol, he caught the emperor's uncle, Jian Shuo, a popular person next to him, and beat him to death.
It is precisely for this reason that Cao Wei took this "night ban" very seriously.
Nowadays, if someone is so arrogant and drunk on the street late at night, naturally... the officers and soldiers will step forward to arrest him.
"Wait a minute..." Unexpectedly, several new recruits were stopped by a veteran, "Do you know who he is?"
"Princes who break the law are as guilty as the common people..."
With a "pop" sound, the veteran punched the new recruit on the forehead, "He is a distinguished guest of General Zhonglang with five senses! I heard he is from Jiangling..."
"So what? No matter how great-looking the general is, can he still be bigger than the prime minister?"
"Haha..." Listening to the simple words of the recruit Danzi, the veteran sighed: "The handsome man with five features will be older than the prime minister, but the prime minister is not young anymore. Mr. Zhi has caused great trouble again, and Mr. Pi is the prime minister's son.
The eldest son? Who dares to touch his people?"
this…
The recruit seemed to realize it in an instant. He hesitated for a long time, and could only chant the word "that...that" with his eyes wide open...
"Isn't it the third watch of the gong that hasn't sounded yet? Tell the watchman to ring it later!" After serving in the army for a long time, we are all soldiers. We know what to do when and what to do.
But at this moment...in the Zuixian Tower not far away, wine and delicacies were placed on the tables on the second floor. Cao Zhi, who was in a depressed mood, was tapping his chopsticks and composing a song.
——"Abandoning one's life at the edge of a sharp edge, how can one's life be safe? If parents don't care, what can they say about their children and their wives? Names are compiled into the list of strong men, and no personal considerations are allowed. Sacrifice one's life in a national disaster, and treat one's death as if it were a sudden return home!"
This is "The White Horse" written by Cao Zhi Benzhi!
It was supposed to be a majestic and high-spirited song, but now he got into a big disaster and Jiangxia fell.
Together with what is expressed in this song, it has become the sorrow and desolation of the end of the world.
Yang Xiu also sang along absentmindedly, holding the wine in his hand but not drinking it. What flashed in his mind was the image of his father, Yang Biao.
My father, Yang Biao, was a Han official!
Ever since Yang Xiu stood firmly on Cao Cao's side, Yang Biao had severed the father-son relationship with him. Now that I think about it... maybe his father was right!
It's a pity...sigh...
With a faint sigh, Yang Xiu's eyes slowly turned red and he stopped singing.
After the singing, Cao Zhi stared at Yang Xiu who was in meditation, and said nothing for a while.
Yang Xiu quickly came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, "Zijian's "White Horse" is really touching!"
Cao Zhi sighed, "It's all over. If I lose, it's me who loses... Dezu, you have worried too much about me over the years. After all, there are some things that cannot be forced."
Yang Xiu's expression was rare sincerity, with a hint of resignation. "That seat should have been yours. I wouldn't lose, and neither would Zijianqian!"
Cao Zhi smiled miserably. "But...do you still have a choice now? This time, my second brother and I mobilized troops privately, with good intentions, but who would have thought...my second brother did nothing, but I made a big mistake. I'm afraid this is
God's will...if I mobilize Xudu's troops and my second brother recruits Runan's troops, maybe...just as Dezu said, I can sit in that seat!"
Speaking of which…
Cao Zhi drank a full bottle and his smile became even more tragic. "I often wonder, if I had not argued with my second brother, Dezu would not have killed the lieutenant of General Yu Jin, and would not have forged my father's edict for me.
Ling, maybe... today I can fall in love with poetry and wine with Dezu and my second brother. That... maybe that's the day I want... Eight years, haha, I put my youth, your youth, into the second
The youth of brother and sister-in-law has turned into a nightmare!"
When mentioning the "second sister-in-law", it was obvious that Cao Zhi paused inadvertently.
A name like this makes him even more tragic.
Yang Xiu's eyes turned red, "Young master, as the son of Prime Minister Cao, there are always things you should do, and you can't help yourself! The situation made you, I made the choice, but there is no room for regret in life, the king asked me
I assisted Young Master Zijian, and Young Master Zijian regarded me as a friend. From that moment on...I chose to make...the success of you, Cao Zijian, my only ideal, Yang Xiu!"
Cao Zhi was at a loss: "But this ideal has been shattered by the current situation. The second brother won, and I...I lost. Was this ideal wrong from the beginning?"
Yang Xiu sighed: "Master Zijian, you are too kind. There is no right or wrong in your ideals. As a minister, I am pleased with your kindness and indulgence, but I know that this is not good for the fight for the heir apparent! But as a friend, I
I like your indulgent talent, "Place wine in the palace, make friends and travel with me", I am willing to "travel with him", even if I die for you! This is the ideal I chose, and I do not regret my ideal.
If it is really wrong, it is the fault of the situation and the fault of fate, not my fault, and it is not your fault Cao Zijian! What's more..."
Yang Xiu said bitterly: "Although I lost, you haven't lost yet, Mr. Zijian. It was me who killed Lieutenant General Yu Jin, and I was also the one who forged the Prime Minister's order to mobilize troops. These have nothing to do with you, Zijian..."
"Dezu..." Cao Zhi said quickly.
"Hahahaha..." Yang Xiu seemed to be in a frenzy and chanted loudly: "Place the wine in the high hall and make friends with me..."
"Come back and have a banquet, and fight with ten thousand fine wines..."
If Yang Xiuwan made a certain decision, he would sacrifice himself to... protect Cao Zhi!
He raised the wine bottle rather boldly: "It's your turn, Zijian..."
Cao Zhi's eyes were red, "Dezu, I have already lost. I lost my position as the heir apparent. I can't lose to you again!"
"Where did you lose?" Yang Xiu drank all the wine in the wine bottle. He sang Cao Zhi's poems lovingly: "The golden wine is full of wine, and the delicacies are spread out. The people of Qi enter the Qi Dynasty and enjoy the music, and the singers come out of the Western Qin Dynasty.
My young master is as clever as a god…wine, wine…more wine, more wine!”
Suddenly, heavy footsteps sounded downstairs, and with a "crunch", the door of Zuixian Tower was pushed open.
A madman broke in, with his breasts exposed and his two wine gourds swinging left and right.
As soon as he entered the door, he yelled:
"Wine? Who just said there was wine?"
Yang Xiu and Cao Zhi thought they were just ordinary drunk people.
At this point, he still dared to come to a wine shop and get drunk. He was lucky enough not to be caught and beaten by the officers and soldiers patrolling the city.
Want some more wine?
I was simply drunk and confused.
However, Cao Zhi inexplicably recalled that he "broke into Sima Gate at night"... It was Yang Xiu who tried his best to keep him safe and prevent him from losing the possibility of "fighting for the crown prince" because of drunkenness.
Ma'am--
At this moment, the shopkeeper of the wine shop went to send the drunkard away.
Unexpectedly, I heard this drunkard yelling: "I have been in sorrow for a hundred years, and I am drunk with all kinds of feelings... There are books in my belly... I have thousands of books in my belly, and I have thousands of glasses of wine outside my body, and I burp... Haha, haha, don't you dare
If you want to touch me, get up, get up... Drinking together... Drinking with a close friend, a thousand cups is too little, half a sentence is too much to talk without speculation... It doesn't matter, one drink can eliminate eternal sorrow!"
this…
The drunk man casually recited some famous lines from poems, which made Yang Xiu startled and made Cao Zhi look sideways.
It should be noted that the Southern Dynasties poet "Xie Lingyun" commented on the poet Cao Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period:
——The talents in the world are divided into ten fights. I thank someone for taking one fight. All the people in the world are divided into one fight. Only Cao Zijian has eight fights.
And this is also the origin of the idiom "Eight talents are high".
It was precisely because of his "talented talent" that... when he heard these verses, Cao Zhi was shocked. He was astonished by the poems spoken by the drunkard...
Too--
Are you, Cao Zijian, very talented?
Then Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi, Du Mu, Wang Wei, Ouyang Xiu, if you were to be together in this life, how many fights would you have?
"Zijian..." Yang Xiu opened his mouth...
"Dezu, don't talk." Cao Zhi quickly raised his hand, as if he didn't want to be interrupted. He was fascinated, fascinated by the verses coming from the drunk man's mouth.
He wants to keep listening...keep listening.
Yang Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the "ragged" and "uninhibited" drunkard on the first floor.
His voice continued, as if he was very drunk.
Already started talking "drunk talk"...
"——Wine, liquid fire, floats in the air, turns the world upside down, makes the world flow, and pours ancient books and documents into ups and downs. It infects the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with colorful colors, haha, it drunk Zhang Fei, crazy
I lost Ni Heng, promoted Cao Mengde, wrote the Hongmen Banquet, wet the apricot blossoms of Qingming Festival, and lost the wealth of the Cao family's son Jian..."
"You, you, you have made many heroes a hero, you have brought down so many villagers and roughnecks, you have accompanied you with singing and dancing, and you have been accompanied by beauty. You have inspired poetic sentiments and inspired literati to be bold..."
The more the drunkard talked, the more he became bold and unrestrained, and he was also unbridled.
His movements became more and more exaggerated...
He even took off all his shirts.
His words continued: "Some people use you to go crazy, and some people use you to seize power. Sometimes you are just a prop to enhance the atmosphere at the banquet. Sometimes you are more like a hidden weapon to stun your drunken opponents... Haha, hahaha...
Grape wine luminous cup, moon drink pipa will remind you immediately, haha, hahaha... I advise you to drink another glass of wine, there is no old friend in Yangguan in the west... Wine, good wine, fine wine, I come to your place to drink, I advise you
Don’t be ignorant of praise, please refill this wine for me!”
Following these heroic voices.
"——Boom, boom!"
Suddenly, the drunk man stumbled and fell to the ground...
When the shopkeeper went to help him, he heard his "snoring" sound, and it seemed that he was very drunk and had fallen asleep.
The shopkeeper was about to call the waiter and throw the drunkard out.
Unexpectedly, Cao Zhi shouted immediately.
"Wait a minute..."
He and Yang Xiu quickly went downstairs. Yang Xiu came to the side of the drunkard and turned over his disheveled hair, revealing his wild and unruly cheeks. Yang Xiu was immediately startled...
"It's Li Miao! Li Miao, one of the three dragons of the Li family!"
"Li Miao?" Cao Zhi did not recognize this person.
Yang Xiu explained, "This man is a famous scholar in Shu County, known as one of the 'Three Dragons'. But first he openly humiliated Liu Bei, and then he was at war with the fourth son of Guan. In the past, there were rumors that Guan Lin stripped him of his clothes and tied him to the throne."
Show it to everyone at the city gate to humiliate him."
"Yesterday, I heard that Cao Pi specially brought a madman from Jiangling. This man is no less mad than the 'Ni Heng' who nakedly humiliated the prime minister! I didn't expect him to be one of the three dragons of the Li family!"
Origin, humiliation…
Cao Zhi didn't mind at all about Li Miao.
He just exclaimed: "Dezu always said that my father's poems and my poems were like human relations with Zhou, Kong, and Lin Yu with dragons and phoenixes. When my father ascended to the hall, I could enter the room, while other talented people in the world could only sit on the verandahs...
I am not arrogant. Originally, I believed Dezu’s words, and I deserved it, but... But as soon as Li Miao came out, I realized what it means to be blind to Mount Tai with a leaf blocking the eye. The northern literati are still too arrogant!"
"As soon as Li Miao came out, not only would I, Cao Zang, not be able to marry, but my father would not be able to be promoted to the imperial court! There are so many northern literati who are not worthy of sitting in that verandah. Only those few lines of poetry and those long remarks just now are the most talented in the world.
There are ten buckets in total, and this person is afraid that he will get eight of them!"
Yang Xiu was also shocked by Li Miao's talent, but reminded him: "But he was brought here by Zihuan!"
Cao Zhi's tone was extremely firm, "I don't care who he is, I only know that he will be like Dezu and become my best friend..."
Cao Zhi couldn't help but whisper the verse he had just recited.
- Grape wine luminous cup, moon drink pipa will remind you immediately——"
"I advise you to drink another glass of wine. There will be no old friends when you leave Yangguan in the west——"
"Good poem, wonderful poem!"
Speaking of this, Cao Zhi picked up Li Miao. "Dezu, help me. Send him to the carriage first. I want to take him back!"
Yang Xiu hesitated for a moment, then offered his help.
But at this moment, the drunk Li Miao was still murmuring in his sleep:
"Wine, wine, you are a bad thing. You have entered both the wealthy mansion and the humble courtyard of the village. The golden bottles of the royal family are overflowing, and the coarse bowls of the peasants are filled. I want you in sorrow and in joy, haha...I
I want you too!"
"Haha, there is a pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without any blind date. Raise a glass to the bright moon, and become three people in the shadows. You, me, him... three people, become three people in the shadows!"
For a moment, the words "Three people formed a shadow" resounded in the dark street.
as if…
This sentence, these poems, this Li Miao... Suddenly, Cao Zhi, who was in chaos and darkness, seemed to have forgotten everything and devoted himself to this outstanding literary talent.
The appearance of Li Miao also made Yang Xiu full of emotions.
——"Is it a coincidence?"
He thought for a moment, but in Cao Zhi's extremely eager and sincere eyes, his doubts disappeared overnight.
——"This Li Miao? Could he be the person who will help Zijian after me?"
For some reason, Yang Xiu suddenly had a feeling.
This feeling is very strong.
Yang Xiu murmured in his heart:
——"There are three people facing each other. From now on...I'm afraid there won't be three anymore!"
…
…
Changsha County, in the post house.
Guan Lin's third uncle, Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide, are going back to Bashu.
yes…
The task here has been completed, but there is still a lot of things to do in Chengdu? Zhang Fei has been away for a long time, and he is not worried about his elder brother Liu Bei.
As for the investigation of Hong Qigong and Huang Laoxie, it is no longer important at this point.
Just make sure they are "one of your own" and that's fine.
As for whether Huang Laoxie is Guan Lin or Huang Chengyan, Zhang Fei will not go into details.
This is the first task, and the second task can be considered initially completed.
Zhang Zhongjing miraculously saved...
The first official medical office in Jingzhou was also built.
Moreover, Zhang Fei and Zhang Zhongjing mentioned Fa Zheng's illness, and Zhang Zhongjing stated that he would search for a cure for this illness in medical books.
In connection with this... there are several similar cases in Changsha. We should try them first. Once we are sure everything is safe, we will go to Bashu to diagnose and cure them.
It can be said that Zhang Fei's trip to Jingzhou was successfully completed and lived up to the expectations of his elder brother Liu Bei and Zhuge Military Advisor.
certainly…
Before Zhang Fei leaves, he still has two things to do.
One is to go back to Jiangling. The marriage between my daughter Zhang Xingcai and this boy Yun Qi must be mentioned to my second brother.
Zhang Fei recently learned an idiom, which is called - late will lead to change!
Secondly, right now...
Zhang Fei specially recruited Guan Lin, just to ask Guan Lin... Zhang Fei could leave his only precious daughter to him.
Of course, because Zhang Xingcai was also there, Zhang Fei couldn't speak so directly or so disgustingly.
He just expressed it implicitly.
"You have a sharp mind, but you don't know martial arts. If no one protects you, an assassin can take your life. So... I specially left my daughter with you to protect you! You can't do that.
Bullying my daughter!"
Zhang Fei blurted out these words.
Guan Lin actually wanted to say it in his heart.
——"Uncle Zhang? Your brain circuit is also completely strange? Should I bully your daughter?"
——"Do you have any misunderstanding about me? I don't even dare to kill a chicken..."
Yes, with Guan Lin's small body, "a bag of rice can't stand up to the fifth floor"...
Even ten of them couldn't bully Zhang Xingcai.
certainly…
Thinking this in his heart, he still said, "Uncle Zhang, don't worry. With Sister Xingcai by my side, I feel much more at ease. How could I bully her? She must help me bully others..."
Speaking of this, Guan Lin looked at Zhang Xingcai and showed a harmless smile, "Sister Xingcai, don't you think so?"
Zhang Xingcai rolled his eyes at Guan Lin...
I muttered in my heart: "This brother is no longer clever at this time. He still doesn't know what dad means?"
The more he thought about it, the more Zhang Xingcai's face turned red.
Speaking of which, Guan Lin really didn't think about it.
He is only fifteen years old. He has not yet reached the crown. He is still a child!
But when he thought about Zhang Fei leaving...and specifically leaving Zhang Xingcai to protect him, Guan Lin was still very moved.
I just think Zhang Fei can handle it.
——Something is true;
——I’m really willing to keep my daughter if I have one!
Guan Lin is a very particular person. Even Uncle Zhang is like this. He has to reciprocate the favor... He also has to give Uncle Zhang something. As the saying goes, men should not be indecent!
So? What to give?
Guan Lin couldn't help but hold his chin and think carefully.
The so-called one Lu, two Zhao, three Dianwei, four passes, five horses and six Zhang Fei...
Uncle Zhang is already so good at fighting, so it would be meaningless to give him a copy of "Yang Family Gun". If the guarantee is not complete, is it not as powerful as Uncle Zhang's "Henghou Gun"?
Guan Lin was thinking about... sending a military book...
For example, the "Taibai Yin Jing" of the Song Dynasty, the "New Book of Ji Xiao" by Qi Jiguang of the Ming Dynasty, or the "Records of Military Training" by Qi Jiguang's military training.
But think about it...
Not to mention that it takes a lot of brains to write it down, but just... giving it to Zhang Fei is meaningless.
Zhang Fei is a practical person, not an academic person. He leads and commands troops based on "practice leads to true knowledge"!
This is quite difficult to handle.
——"So, what should I give as a gift?"
Guan Lin held his chin and thought carefully...
suddenly…
Guan Lin thought of something, his eyes must have flashed.
He quickly said: "A man should not be indecent... Third uncle, you are so kind to my nephew, and my nephew is grateful. Now that the third uncle is leaving, shall I give you a book?"
Zhang Fei's eyes widened and he stared directly at Guan Lin.
Like say again.
——"You kid, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Am I a person who loves to read? Do you look down on me, Zhang Fei?"
Fortunately...Zhang Fei knew that Guan Lin had no ill intentions.
Otherwise, if the protection is not complete, he will hit it with one punch.
Zhang Xingcai also smiled and said: "My father doesn't read the military book? Zhuge Military Advisor not only advised him once? He also used the example of 'Wu Xia Amen, the soldiers have been separated for three days and they should look at each other with admiration', but dad... Haha, my daughter won't say it anymore.
...But, as for the book...Brother Yun Qi, I don’t have to... If you have this skill, why not give my dad a few pictures of beauties? My dad is good at painting beauties!"
"That's not what I'm talking about." Guan Lin blinked his eyes and said meticulously: "How could I not know that Third Uncle loves to draw beauties? It's just that the book I gave to Third Uncle must be better than the 'Beauty Picture Scroll'
If you like it, you will definitely watch it every day and every night. If you don’t watch it for a day, you will feel uncomfortable all over!”
