Not long after Chen Dao left, the third young master also left. Literature bar wxba
There are not many big names among the tea drinkers, but a person's knowledge does not depend on his or her IQ, but mainly on the amount of information. These tea drinkers often come and go in teahouses, where information is concentrated, and they listen more, talk more, and have a broader vision. Naturally, it came out through experience, and soon someone discovered the anomaly.
"The third young master seems to have come here for something."
"Of course. Now that the war is going on, more than half of our troops in Qingzhou have been mobilized. The princes in the general's mansion are so busy that he will not come here to report the news to us no matter how bad he is. Right? As for the good story he just told, does it still need to be deliberately publicized? I bet that after the news spreads, it will not take a month for a new drama to come out, and the name is... A Thousand Miles of Marriage is Tangled by a Thin Thread ?”
"How can there be such a name? Old Sun, you should rest. But in this way, the third young master is really a bit evil when he comes here. Well, he is not here for the filial son who bought tea, is he? I said Boss Zhuang, seeing how generous you were just now, you should know some details, right?"
Boss Zhuang squinted his eyes, chuckled, and looked like a fox who had just stolen a chicken. He only said: "Don't say it, don't say it." Everyone scratched their heads and scratched their heads in anxiety, and their hearts were burning.
"Don't do this. Others don't know you, Fatty Zhuang. But I know that when I look at your expression, I know that you actually don't know anything. The gift of tea just now was just out of good intentions."
"Who said that? How come I didn't know?" The owner of the village had a bit of Jia Xu's charm in pretending to be a villain, but he couldn't do it when he got serious. When someone provoked him, he couldn't sit still anymore. Gao, said loudly: "He returned to Gaotang with General Guan. He is a surrendered general of Xuzhou! I heard that he is very valued by the princes."
"Are you talking nonsense?" This time there were more doubters, "Looking at his straitened appearance, he doesn't look like a general who has the trust of the king? And what time is it now? The war is coming, and it's time to hire people! General Guan and General Ji is a demoted general, and he has not been appointed as a vanguard general, and General Li..."
I can’t blame everyone for questioning, Qingzhou pursues a military policy, and the status of soldiers is very high. Although oolong tea is a new variety, it is also a rare commodity among many tea varieties. However, let alone a general, as long as he is a soldier or a The captain can afford it easily.
Chen Dao's poor appearance does not look like a respected general. He is almost like a refugee who has just arrived in Gaotang and has not found a job. There are no people of noble birth here, and no one will look down on the refugees, but the fact is obvious. From this perspective, Chen Dao doesn't look like a general in the army.
"What do you know? This..." Boss Zhuang curled his lips with disdain and pointed to the door: "He hasn't surrendered yet. He can only enjoy the minimum living allowance... Do you understand?"
"Is he a prisoner?" The tea guests looked at each other, "That's not right. Aren't prisoners usually sent to the urban management brigade for rehabilitation? He walks freely, but he doesn't look like a prisoner. Aren't you afraid that he will become a spy or run away?"
"I can't run away. He turned out to be Liu Bei's personal guard general. During the Battle of Surabaya, he fought to the death to cut off the rear. Although he lost to General Zilong in the end and was captured alive, he is still a good man..."
"Well, that's it. He dares to break up his wife at that time. He is indeed a loyal person."
"He is also very filial." Boss Zhuang sighed: "Don't say that Liu Bei is missing now. Even if he raises the flag again, how can he leave my mother and join that cowardly person? In the past, we had a good relationship.
Now that I have repaid the kindness with my life, I can’t possibly repay what I owe him, right?”
"That's right." Everyone was also sighing. Although the other party was a bit stubborn and it was still difficult to distinguish between friends and foes, people with traditional virtues such as loyalty and filial piety would not be annoying.
"But, so to speak, the Third Young Master is really here for him?"
"That's right? The Lord has no time to clone himself and may not be able to take care of these ordinary roles, but it's just right for the Third Young Master to come forward." Boss Zhuang nodded.
This third young master was Wang Yu's cousin Wang Mo. At the end of the Hebei War, he, Zhang Fei and Mi Heng held fast to Gaotang City and won opportunities for the subsequent night attack.
"That's it." The tea guests nodded one after another, showing understanding expressions. At the same time, they also felt that Wang Junhou's method of influencing die-hard elements was very unpredictable.
The talents of the Taishan Wang family are limited. Although he is already the most outstanding child in the family except Wang Yu. But in Qingzhou where there are many famous generals, his martial arts and military skills are not outstanding, and he can barely hang at the back of the car. And Wang
Yu's attitude towards his relatives is not like that of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu who are nepotistic. Instead, he treats everyone equally and favors people based on their talents. Therefore, his position has always been somewhat awkward.
It was not until after the Battle of Gaotang that he joined the shogunate and occupied a place in the shogunate by virtue of his performance in defending the city with Zhang Fei. Because he cooperated well with Zhang Fei at the beginning, Wang Yu was considering letting him work with Shi Tao.
The heavy burden of Honglu Pavilion was shouldered.
Recruiting famous generals is fun, and maintaining a certain sense of mystery is also important, but as the lord, Wang Yu can't always pretend to be a stickman with a directory, right?
Therefore, Wang Mo changed from a military general to a personnel officer. He would wander around teahouses and restaurants when he had nothing to do. If he heard any news about talents, he would record it and let Officer Honglu go check it out.
Although the Qingzhou New Deal has done a very good job in releasing information, after all, the time is still short. Due to the values of this era, the situation of wild and leisure is not unique even in Qingzhou. People like Wang Mo still need to search and dig out
.
He was easy-going and would often win people's hearts with the latest gossip from the General's Palace. His work was quite effective, and he discovered some political talents such as Liang Mao from Shanyang.
Now, he obviously has another heavyweight target - Chen Dao.
…
"Mother!" As soon as he turned around the street and saw the door of his house from a distance, Chen Dao saw his mother standing leaning against the door. As the snowflakes fluttered, the white hair on the old man's head almost blended with the sky and the earth. Chen Dao felt hot in his heart.
There was a sore look in his eyes, and he hurriedly rushed forward, supported his mother, and said hurriedly: "It's freezing cold, and it's snowing. Why did you come out?"
"I just came out to see if my son is back." The old lady smiled kindly, raised her hand tremblingly, and touched her son's forehead: "When I first gave birth to you, your father was still there.
The weather is also so cold, it’s snowing heavily, there are holes in the house, and the wind is strong. I’m lying on the bed, wrapped in a thin quilt, hugging you tightly, for fear of freezing my son..."
The old man said with great reminiscence: "Your father is a very good man. Seeing our mother and father suffering, he, a three-foot-tall man, actually cried and vowed to work hard so that the family would not go hungry and suffer no harm."
Dong...if only he had survived until now, how wonderful would it be? If we had known that there was such a good place, my son wouldn't have to suffer so much."
"Mother!" Chen Dao felt sad when he heard this. He felt that his son was unfilial to the extreme, which frightened his mother and kept her silent. Moreover, even such a simple wish was never fulfilled for the old man.
"My son, life is much better now than before. Don't be too demanding. My body and bones were able to survive those early years. Is it not possible to live a good life now? My son is an upright man.
Mother, I don’t want to see you begging for help..."
"Mother..." Chen Dao felt as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle. He had all kinds of tastes, and it was so confusing.
After fighting to the death, he actually didn't think much about it. He was just overwhelmed by the blood on the battlefield, and with the word "loyalty" in mind, he rushed forward with all his strength.
It took a long time for him to wake up after being captured. He learned from others that he had refused Wang Yu's surrender. If Zhao Yun hadn't begged for mercy, he would have almost lost his life. At that time, he broke out in a cold sweat. It didn't matter if he died. He was left alone.
What should I do?
After that, he made up his mind. Anyway, if life has failed like this, there is no need to hold on to loyalty until death. Next time Wang Yu forces surrender, he will surrender first to save his life, but he will definitely not go to the battlefield and fight for his life.
Trying too hard.
Who would have thought that after that, Wang Yu seemed to have forgotten him, offering him delicious food and drinks, but without any orders. However, Zhao Yun came a few times, but it seemed that he was not in high spirits, and he did not offer anything to persuade him to surrender.
When he arrived at Gaotang, he was immediately thrown aside, as if he was left to fend for himself.
It's not that he never thought about taking the opportunity to escape, but after having a comprehensive understanding of Gaotang, he couldn't bear to leave at all. He didn't care, but could he let my mother continue to wander around with him?
Chen Dao is a person with no ambitions, and he is the type who just gets by. After a while, he got used to the life in Gaotang. With the monthly living allowance he received, he lived a very carefree life.
But no matter how unambitious a person is, it is impossible for him to have all his desires and desires. Chen Dao soon realized a serious problem - not enough money to spend.
Wang Yu did not restrict what kind of work he could do, but Chen Dao lost his father when he was young and was taken to the mountain by bandits early on. When he was looking for something to do, he realized that he could do nothing but kill people.
After working several jobs, he was fired soon after. Chen Dao looked at the sky blankly and realized that he had become the heroic man who was stumped by a penny.
There is certainly no way to get rid of poverty. Chen Dao is not stupid. Wang Yu brought himself all the way back to Gaotang. He certainly would not have just wanted to add a man to Gaotang. As long as he joined the army, he would always get certain preferential treatment.
But the problem is, after that near-death experience, he couldn't muster up the energy to go to the battlefield. Especially after living in Gaotang for these few months, every time he thought of the bloody battlefield, he would
I felt waves of trembling. In this state, going into battle would mean risking death.
If he heard the discussions among the tea guests, Chen Dao would definitely have the heart to cry. He is not a pretentious person! He just has a moment of bravery, and then seems to have lost his strength. If he wants to become a general, he will
Not in the right state!
As my thoughts were ups and downs, I suddenly heard my mother ask: "Son, is that your friend?"
Chen Dao looked back in shock and saw the third young master in the teahouse standing not far away, looking at him with a smile.
