Chapter Seven: Moonlight Review: Hidden Lin in the Abyss, Teng will be Nine Heavens
Qiaopei military camp, the Chinese army's tent.
When Cai Zhaoji arrived, she found that there were not many people in the Chinese army's tent. Even the two lieutenants who came with her stopped outside the tent.
There were only two burly generals visible in the big tent, most likely the generals Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan mentioned by the deputy general.
Of course, among them... there is also Lu Yu.
However, Lu Yu was eating at this time. To be precise, he was gnawing on a leg of lamb and devouring it. He looked extremely uncivilized, as if he hadn't eaten in three days.
To be honest, for Lu Yu, isn't it just that he is starving?
Originally, I went south to find a "scumbag and a cheap dad", but even though I live far away from home, I always carry the title of "Hidden Lin", and wherever I go, someone will give me delicious food and drink;
There is never a shortage of transportation, dry food, and cooked meat. I feel like I'm in Cao's camp now, as if I'm experiencing a great famine!
For three months, Lu Yu didn't eat meat. He ate either porridge or rice porridge every day.
It’s no exaggeration to say that if Lu Yu were given Lao Gan Ma’s chili sauce from before he traveled through time, he would be able to find a treasure and enjoy it like a glutton!
Now, there are roasted lamb legs, fine venison, dog meat... and all kinds of fruits on the table. How can Lu Yu hold back and eat for free?
Eating dog meat was popular in the Han Dynasty, but Lu Yu was really not used to it, so he ate half of the venison and roasted lamb leg, but the dog meat was not touched at all.
"You are a thin boy, but you look like a strong man when you eat! Haha, you are actually picky about food!"
Cao Ren shouted...
It sounded like a scolding, but in fact, this was the tone he usually spoke in.
This meat was originally prepared by him and Xia Houyuan for Lu Yu to eat!
There are so many strong men in Cao's camp. Young people who may be proficient in the art of war are as if they have found a treasure. Cao Cao is eager to see through them, and Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan are in love with each other!
Seeing Cai Zhaoji walking in, Lu Yu picked up a papaya and handed it to her. "Sister Zhaoji, eat papaya. This is good for your health!"
The words came out of my mouth...
When she heard General Cao Ren's "scolding" just now, Cai Zhaoji's face hardened. The more Lu Yu ate more wantonly, the more uneasy she felt.
"Brother, who asked you to be so presumptuous in front of the two generals! Who asked you to take the papaya? How can you take other people's things?"
Cai Zhaoji deliberately spoke harshly. In her opinion, only by punishing her brother in this way will the two generals calm down and spare him!
actually…
When scolding Lu Yu, Cai Zhaoji felt very distressed in her heart.
"General Cao, General Xiahou... This younger brother of mine is not yet a weakling, he is young and impulsive... If for any reason I provoke or offend the two generals, please forgive him for my brother's sake, or... or punish me.
!”
Three months ago, I heard the news that my father Cai Yong died tragically under Wang Yun's sword.
During this period, Cai Zhaoji became sensitive and fragile, especially when she was living in the care of others, and a sense of inferiority arose inexplicably in her heart.
After all, the world is in chaos now, and if the two siblings are kicked out by their brother Cao Cao, then...who else can protect them?
"If so, if my little brother gets into trouble and wants... to pay compensation... I have it here, I have it here..."
While speaking, Cai Zhaoji quickly turned over her sleeves. Before Cao Ren could wait, Xia Houyuan reacted...
She took out all the money she had on her body from her cuffs...
What a huge amount of money!
There are only two bunches of five-baht coins, and there are only a few scattered copper coins. Because Cai Zhaoji loves to be clean, every coin is polished and crystal clear. However, all in all, it is estimated that it cannot buy a pound of corn.
.
And this is already her entire possessions.
Seeing this scene...Cao Ren was stunned, Xia Houyuan was also stunned, and even Lu Yu was stunned.
When I was working as "Yinlin", didn't the county magistrates and county magistrates in the south all send me a lot of money? Now...has my sister become so poor?
Darling? You really don’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are when you’re not a family member!
It seems... Sister Zhao Ji has had a hard time these past few years.
Inexplicably, Lu Yu's nose felt a little sore. He even thought that if troubled times were not coming and the world was in chaos, he would rather take Sister Zhao Ji to travel around the mountains and rivers and live a leisurely life selling information without worrying about food and clothing!
call…
Lu Yu exhaled softly, intending to say something.
But his careful thoughts prevented him from saying anything.
"Be patient, be patient again, without exposing the identity of 'Yinlin', this... this is the only way to get close to Cao Cao and let us live a good life!"
"Sister, good times are coming... endure it a little longer, endure it a little longer!"
…
"Sister Zhaoji, you misunderstood...actually..."
Before Lu Yu could speak, Cao Ren stood up quickly and explained, "Miss Cai Yan, I asked him to eat these lamb legs and venison. As for this kid, this papaya was specially left for you."
"He didn't cause any trouble, and...he is very smart, and he is the talent Mr. Cao is looking for!"
Is this... like this?
Cai Zhaoji paused for a moment, and felt inexplicably distressed when she saw Lu Yu looking aggrieved but still holding the papaya tightly.
"Brother Lu Yu, it seems that my sister wrongly blamed you."
Cai Zhaoji said softly...
Lu Yu smiled faintly and immediately stuffed the papaya into Cai Zhaoji's arms.
In Lu Yu's opinion, his sister was still in her prime, but there was no movement in the areas where her body should have grown.
It really doesn’t matter whether the younger brother eats lamb legs or not, but sister Zhao Ji must eat papaya and take appropriate supplements!
Otherwise...who can afford a pair of A's?
"Miss Cai Yan, I am Cao Ren, also known as Zixiao, and this is General Xiahou, also known as Miaocai!"
The misunderstanding was resolved, Cao Ren made an introduction first, and then said loudly: "Miaocai and I have both admired the girl's name for a long time. People say that Miss Cai Yan can pick up the strings of the piano at the age of six. She is an extraordinary woman in the world. I never thought that she could cultivate such an outstanding person."
My younger brother, I really admire you, I admire you!"
Speaking of this, Cao Ren glanced out the window.
"Miss Cai Yan, the carriage is ready. Let's go to the Chenliu County Government Office together?"
"Chenliu County Government Office?" Cai Zhaoji repeated.
In her impression, this was Cao Cao's office. She had only been there once in the three months since she came to Cao Ying.
"That's right." Cao Ren explained. "My eldest brother recently asked me to find some talented young people to train myself. Your brother is smart, agile, and well versed in the art of war. I think eldest brother will like him! He will cultivate him and entrust him with important responsibilities... the future
It’s limitless!”
ah?
Cultivation? Unlimited?
Cai Zhaoji was startled again...
At this moment, a brand new idea suddenly rose in her heart.
Could it be that everything that happened today was planned in advance by brother Lu Yu?
Without exposing the identity of "Yinlin", he used tricks to get close to his brother Cao Cao, offered him advice without revealing anything, and also helped them live a good life?
this…
Thinking of this, Cai Zhaoji felt an inexplicable shock in her heart.
OMG…
Brother Lu Yu's arrangements were so meticulous and his expressions were not leaked.
Even General Cao Ren, General Xiahou Yuan, all the lieutenants in Qiao Pei's camp, including Cao Cao, were all kept in the dark, right?
call…
Take a long breath.
Cai Zhaoji's heart was throbbing again and again. It seemed... Even though she was deep in Cao Ying, even if she was living under someone else's roof, Yinlin's identity could not be revealed, but Yinlin's mind was still extremely smart!
This is what Xu Shao mentioned to her in Yuedanjing - if the hidden lin is in the abyss, will it be able to reach the sky?
