"I don't want to be his daughter, but I can't choose. If I have a choice, I'd rather be a pig, a dog, a cow, and a horse, and I don't want to ......" Speaking of this, Kou Yan suddenly lost control: "I don't want to be his daughter, I don't want to be his daughter!" Xu Shu saw his disciple suddenly erupt, and he didn't think much about it, and his body reacted faster than he thought. He only took a step in the direction of his disciple, and as soon as he stretched out his arm, he hugged Kou Yan in front of his chest.

Exposed to the warmth that she had thought about thousands of times in her dreams, Kou Yan's love was completely released, and she couldn't think of anything else, so she reached out and grabbed Xu Shu's clothes, Xu Shu used to be a ranger, born tall and big, and the young Kou Yan's height was only up to his abdomen, but this did not affect her determination to catch him.

"I don't want to be his daughter, he abandons me, abandons his sister, in this world, except for himself, he can abandon everything else! Even if it is Liu Chan, if it will hinder him, he will definitely abandon him without hesitation!" In fact, if it were not for Zhao Yun's loyal protector, Liu Chan would have died on the side of the road eight hundred years ago!

"I don't want to be his daughter, I can't live as his daughter! I, I want to live!" Kou Yan whimpered. A lot of tears and snot rubbed on Xu Shu's body.

"Yeon'...... As a teacher, I don't know that there is such a dead knot between you and your biological father......" Xu Shu put his arms on Kou Yan's shoulders soothingly. But I didn't know how to comfort her. She could only vent her emotions and wet her robe with tears.

"Teacher, you must help me. If, if even you don't help me, I, I, I really have no choice at all. I want to live, I don't want to die!" Kou Yan cried breathlessly, repeating that he didn't want to die. Fear flooded her. As long as she thought that Xu Shu would leave him, she felt that the whole world was dark. This feeling scared her more than she was afraid that Kou Feng would abandon her.

Xu Shu was stunned by her incoherent words, and then let out a long sigh. He silently made a decision that from now on, he would never mention her father-daughter relationship with Liu Bei again, and never persuade her to change any action he took against Liu Bei. Never touch this wound of hers again.

What was the unforgettable pain that made the apprentice so out of shape? He really wanted to know, but he was afraid to know. They are father and daughter, even if Liu Bei ignores his daughter, it should be limited to ignoring him. How did it become what the disciples said: if you become his daughter, you can't live?

However, Xu Shu finally decided to believe in his disciple. I believe that Liu Bei really did something to send his daughter to death. The apprentice showed him the letter written by Liu Bei to Liu Pan, and the content on it was so cold that it was outrageous. At first, he thought that this was the essence of the hero, and Liu Bei couldn't be blamed. But now his mind has completely changed.

"Yan'er, calm down! Yan'er! The teacher has always been here, and he will not leave, you are my disciple, I will definitely help you and protect you. You have to believe me!" Xu Shu pushed Kou Yan's shoulder away a little with a slight force in his hand. His eyes looked directly into her eyes, and he saw her panicked helplessness and pity all in his eyes: "Yan'er...... My lord!

"Don't call me Lord Taishou!" Kou Yan's face was full of tears at this time, and his mind seemed to have deteriorated for several years, so he retorted without thinking about it. Xu Shu was stunned: "I didn't call it." Then he reacted: "Clean up your feelings, don't think about other things! Let outsiders see the dignified Taishou Adult crying and crying like a female baby, what kind of system!"

Kou Yan also realized that things were not good, and he couldn't go on like this. So he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped his face, but he cried too much just now, and his eyes were still a little swollen, but there was no way, the people outside were staring at him reluctantly.

Fortunately, judging from the voice, it was not the little official outside but the captain Huo Jun, Kou Yan rectified himself a little and let the other party in: "Senior brother, why are you in such a hurry?"

Huo Jun kept his head down and didn't look at Kou Yan's face. Kou Yan is a girl and a boss, and it is impolite and unruly to stare at his face all the time, although Huo Jun is older than Kou Feng, and he is Kou Yan's uncle according to his grade, but there is no way, he is trapped in his subordinate.

Hearing the question from his boss, Huo Jun changed his previous attitude and became more respectful: "The urgent official document from Changsha is handwritten by the master of the bookkeeper!" As soon as Kou Yan heard this, he walked over directly, reached out and took the bamboo slip from Huo Jun's hand, and patted his other hand lightly on his arm: "Senior brother, get up and speak, why are you here in person." ”

"The master of the book said that this official document must be delivered to the adults as much as possible, and his subordinates did not dare to slack off and came in person. Huo Jun got up, still bent over and lowered his head. Kou Yan didn't care about him, walked to the side of the case, opened the bamboo slips and spread them on the case to look at them carefully. When I saw her, I was happy, and laughed out loud regardless of the occasion: "Hahaha, it's really fast! I don't know what kind of attitude this Lord Zhang has this time." Teacher, you see, here they are. ”

As he spoke, he handed the official document to Xu Shu's hand, raised his head and beckoned to Huo Jun: "Come on, come on, come and sit here." There was great news, and I laughed so much that tears came out of my eyes. Kou Yan symbolically wiped his face. Xu Shu coughed lightly on the side, and said in his heart, don't pretend, the more you pretend, the more revealing you are, where can a smile make your eyes swollen?

Huo Jun didn't dare to question his boss, stepped forward and respectfully knelt down on the seat opposite Kou Yan, and moved his body back very uncomfortably. Kou Yan pretended not to see it, and said to him excitedly: "People from Jiangdong have come to ask for an alliance, and they are coming so fast!"

"What do you mean by not ending?" Huo Jun said tentatively. Although he had already heard Kou Yan's argument that there were no permanent friends, only eternal interests, Huo Jun was still a little uneasy, after all, Cao Cao's power was too great, and if he wanted to resist, forming an alliance seemed to be the only way out at present. Maybe in the past few days, the boss's mind has changed again.

"Of course it doesn't end!" Kou Yan has an expression of "you are talking nonsense": "My mind was made clear to my senior brother as early as the first day I came, and it has not changed!"

"But ......" Huo Jun's heart trembled a little, and he was not sure.

"If I make an alliance with him, I will not agree to three things. The first is that the people of Changsha do not agree. Jiangdong committed two crimes in the past year, almost leading the people of Changsha to live uneasy for many years, and countless dead and wounded in the head of Jianchang City and rivers of blood. Tai Shi Ci died in Changsha, and I had a hatred for taking the city with the lord of Wu. If I form an alliance with Lord Wu, it will be against the will of the people. This is one of them.

Second, even if I can ignore the people's wishes, I have to take care of Cai Mao's mood in Jingzhou and the safety of Wuling. If I just said that I want to be neutral on the front foot, I will find an alliance with the enemy on the back foot. What will Cai Mao think? What will Cao Cao think after Cao Cao arrives? Maybe he will order Wen Ping to go south, and the troops will be divided into two ways, right?

Third, even if the above two items are not reasons, I am just greedy for life and afraid of death, and I ran to hug Lord Wu's big legs, Lord Wu may not believe me, he knows that I will not return what he wants to him, and this covenant cannot be signed. If he doesn't form an alliance with him, he wonders if I will take advantage of him to attack Cao Cao's rear in turn, after all, General Huang had been to Chaisang before, and the path was very familiar.

Forming an alliance with him will inevitably raise the price, and show that I am the savior, and you will have to pay protection money if you come to hug me, and I don't want to look at his face, let alone give him even the slightest chance to get involved in Changsha. That's why I avoided Wuling and pretended to disappear. Senior brother, do you understand now?"

Huo Jun's eyes widened, and he said in his heart that this principle of non-alignment sounds really reasonable! But if you think about it carefully, if Cao Cao really goes south, there will be no eggs under the nest, and the territory will be gone, what kind of popular will and what kind of cheek will he talk about? In order to keep the territory, the above three words are all bullshit!

Therefore, there must be some fundamental reason for not being able to form an alliance, and this reason is that the boss is unwilling to say. Huo Jun thought about it carefully and decided to pretend to be stupid: "My lord said it so clearly, so that his subordinates have no place to be ashamed." Please forgive your subordinates for questioning the sins. "Bow to the end. Kou Yan smiled: "Senior brother is a smart person, when the water is settled, he will see the stone out." Within three or five days, there will be new news coming from Changsha, and when the time comes, it will be clear. ”

"In that case, my subordinates will retire!" Huo Jun arched his hand, exited the study, and thought about it himself. Kou Yan pouted: "Senior brother doesn't believe my words at all, but he is still pretending over there!"

"What you say is too high-sounding and lacks a convincing foundation. Xu Shu refuted mercilessly.

"However, the senior brother is a loyal minister of the Han family. There are some things that I can't say to him! Do I have to say to him: If I don't form an alliance with Jiangdong, will the imperial uncle be even more frightened and even more impatient to form an alliance with Jiangdong? And only when the two of them form an alliance can I get what I want, which will not harm my own interests, and can weaken Jiangdong and let those two people who also harbor evil intentions intrigue with each other? I can't say that! Uncle Huang has the halo of the emperor on his head, and I don't want to have unnecessary differences with my senior brother on this issue. ”

"I know, I know. So just now while you were talking, I kept listening without interrupting. I know what you think. Xu Shu nodded while stroking his disciple's hair with affirmative words.

"It's just that Senior Brother Jiang is embarrassed, in fact, he doesn't need to write any official documents at all, I have entrusted him with all the power to do things in Changsha, and he can handle it himself. Senior brother is too rigid!" Kou Yan muttered, pretending to complain about Jiang Wan, but in his heart he became more and more glad that Jiang Wan had become her subordinate, this kind of honest and capable subordinate is really a precious item that can't be found with a lantern!

"You still blame others, they really do a good job of mastering, but what about you! Look at you, where is there a look of being too guarded all over your body!" Xu Shu said angrily, pointing to the traces of Kou Yan's tears on his body that had not dried yet.
