381 Ice Release Suspicion 1
Instead of this, it is better for us to bring in people from outside, overthrow Liu Zhang's rule, change to a strong ruler, and restore the former glory of the country of abundance.
As soon as this voice emerged, it gradually spread among the officials in Shuzhong, and therefore the officials in Shuzhong were divided into the Haoji faction. Bao Liu faction, anti-Liu faction, pro-Cao faction, princess faction and neutral faction. The battle was fierce outside, and the open and secret battles within Liu Zhang's forces were also very fierce.
It's just that Liu Yan never cared about this, what she cared about was that Cao Cao was now cleaning up Ma Teng and Han Sui, in case they were cleaned up, then Cao Cao's next step would probably be to enter Sichuan, if he was allowed to enter Sichuan, then Zhang Lu's surrender would be a matter of minutes. Gangneung will be in danger again, a situation that Yoo Yeon never wants to be in no matter what.
Therefore, Liu Yan is also more concerned about the battle situation in Xiliang, but just like it was difficult for Liu Bei to find out the intelligence of Changsha in Xinye, it was also difficult for Liu Yan to find out the intelligence of Xiliang in Jingzhou. I only knew that Cao Cao and those two families fought fiercely, and the cavalry fought fiercely, but I couldn't get more specific information, so I could only sit in the study and judge the situation in Xiliang by speculation.
Whether it is from Liu Yan's personal point of view, or for the interests of Jingzhou. Liu Yan didn't want Xiliang to be flattened by Cao Cao. First, if Xiliang returned to Cao Cao, then Zhao'an Liu Zhang's settlement of Zhang Lu would not be a matter of a holy decree? At that time, Jingzhou's situation would be even more difficult.
Second, if Xiliang is destroyed, then Liu Yan will lose an excellent cavalry training ground and horse farm. Xiliang is the world of cavalry, and naturally there are good horses and excellent cavalry generals, so Liu Yan doesn't want to be cheap Cao Cao with such a good resource.
However, Xiliang is far away from Jingzhou's sphere of influence, and even if Jingzhou wants to insert a pole, it will be beyond the reach of the whip, let alone get a piece of the pie from Cao Cao. Therefore, we can only hope that the ships that went to sea to find Yizhou and the ships that traded with Liaodong can arrive safely, and find another way to increase our military strength.
I hope that Gongsun Kang in the Northeast can be tougher and work against Cao Cao, instead of blindly being a small low. In this way, it can also involve some of Cao Cao's energy and strength. Relieves the pressure of Xiliang.
Liu Yan thought so in her heart, but she was also sleepy and had nothing to do. After all, everyone has already gone out, and they have brought a lot of money and supplies. But there is no certainty about the changes at sea, and if the ship capsizes, there is really no trace of people who die. God knows where they were, whether An was safe, whether they found Yizhou, whether they contacted Gongsun Kang.
This uncertain factor makes Liu Yanren sit in the mansion but often wander outside the world. Whether the focus of Jingzhou's military development should be shifted westward has become a difficult problem for her to raise her flag.
Looking for Pang Tong and Xu Shu to have a meeting, when she saw Xu Shu's face, she would always think of the argument between the two about marrying a wife and marrying a person. Liu Yan was embarrassed, Xu Shu was even more embarrassed, even though Liu Ba had already worked in Jingzhou, even if the two had never discussed this topic again, but the embarrassment of the two meeting had always existed, so that since then, the two have never been alone.
Liu Yan didn't know why it had been so long, she was still haunted by it, and she would repeat it when she saw the teacher. Xu Shu saw that Liu Yan was embarrassed and thought that she had long been used to being cold to herself, and once she had a quarrel, the rift had always been there, and it was not easy to repair it.
On this day, Liu Yan brought the two generals on the left and right to the study and asked them about their movements in the west. Pang Tong is naturally based on the truth, one, two, three, four, five. Organized, very clear thinking. But Xu Shu was a little suspicious of affecting his work, and Liu Yan asked him if Cao Cao finished cleaning up Xiliang and was going to Sichuan, could we catch up with him and be in Sichuan ahead of him?
Xu Shu just glanced at her and shook his head silently in reply. Liu Yan couldn't figure out whether this shaking her head was an answer that she couldn't catch up, or she sighed that she didn't have a good question?
Xu Shu, who didn't speak, made Liu Yan very aggrieved, but at this time, no matter how aggrieved she was, she would not put it on her face. Knowing that there was a rift in her relationship with her teacher, she simply tore apart these misunderstandings with her own hands and let him know that she was not completely unprincipled and listened to him. She also has her own insistence on uncompromising things. Since you are not married, you have no position to force me to marry, such an obvious truth, how can you, as a well-educated Confucian scholar, forget it?
There are no days when the teacher has made a big and clear note, and Liu Yan lives every day cautiously and tremblingly. I am afraid that if I accidentally make a mistake, the teacher will not come to remind him and deal with the aftermath, and there will be an irreparable situation. Therefore, she became cautious, and even the simplest reply had to think twice, and she had to check for typos, font size and other trivial things when she wrote it, just worried about being caught by the teacher, adding fuel to the fire, and she was completely right about it, but if she angered the teacher, it would be her fault again.
As a master and apprentice who were once close to each other, the Cold War during this period of time caused others around them to suffer greatly.
The first to bear the brunt is Kou Rong, who has the closest relationship with Liu Yan. She found that her sister has been very wrong recently, very wrong, she is usually busy like a spinning top and she is used to seeing no one, and she has already developed new friends, and has a lot of fun with her friends.
But my sister is unusually these days, and almost every day she will catch her to eat together, and let her accompany her to talk around, and she can't understand what she is saying at all. The little girl wanted to ask her sister a few times, what happened. But when the words came to their mouths, they couldn't ask, since they beat their sister and became Changsha Taishou, the two sisters have never been as almost inseparable as they are now. The sensible Kou Rong accompanies Liu Yan every day, trying his best to make her happy, but he is also worried that he will not be able to coax her properly, which will backfire.
The second person who noticed the abnormality was Xu Shu's mother, who was arranged by Liu Yan to live with her after the old lady came to Xiangyang. And Xu Shu has his own general's mansion. The old lady is used to living, and Deng Ai's mother and Kou Rong and a group of maids and women are waiting for her, and her life is nourishing. She didn't think there was anything wrong with that. Even if Liu Yan became a princess, they still lived together.
However, just after Xu Shu and Liu Yan made a big noise because of not marrying or not marrying, Xu Shu gave Liu Yan an official document and took his mother back to his general's mansion. When Liu Yan saw the official document, her heart was blocked for a long time for no reason. However, she also knew that this time there was no room for manoeuvre.
Mother Xu had no opinion on moving, but her son had a black face all the way, and Her Royal Highness the princess personally saw her off with a large bag, and her son was cold all the way. The old lady keenly sensed the low pressure between the two and wisely chose silence.
Their orphans and widows have always been protected by the princess, and the son is the princess's teacher, and now there is a conflict between the master and the apprentice, the old lady wants to help the son, and the princess on the other side wants to stand on the side of the princess who has always taken care of herself and treats herself as her own mother, and the opposite side is her own son. When it was not appropriate to help anyone, the old lady could only choose to say goodbye to Aunt Deng on the side.
The teacher's action deeply pierced Liu Yan's heart, and for many days to come, all she could remember was the cold and hard appearance of the teacher standing on the side. He felt that he was standing so close and yet so far away from her. The words that protected her and cared for her in the past have become yesterday's yellow flowers.
Just because I said I wouldn't marry, you treated me as a stranger? As for it? When you said you wouldn't marry Huang Yueying and didn't want Cai Lu, I didn't have any positive reaction! Why did I say that I wouldn't marry you so much?
Do you want to follow Huang Chengyan's example and find a husband all over the world for me? I can listen to you in everything else, and take your opinion as my opinion, but this is the only one that cannot listen to you, and there is no need to ask for a reason, because there is no reason at all.
Time may change many things, many decisions, but you never know that I have been a human being for two lifetimes, and some things that you feel necessary are not really relevant to me.
It doesn't matter if you marry someone or not. If you want to get married, it matters who you marry. There is no one who wants to marry, so don't marry. I can't tell you this reason, and I don't have to think about it to know that I will be counted down by you.
I can't sue you that I'm not a child anymore, I can't sue you and I have long since lost the high-level pursuit of love, marriage, happiness, and fulfillment. All I want is to be alive, to be well, to be comfortable, to be plain.
Perhaps, when my sister grows up, marries someone and has her own little life, I will consider the right person, if not, I will not marry. So now, of course, the answer is, of course, not to marry!
Although she has made up her mind, in the face of Xu Shu's cold violence, Liu Yan still feels it
Extremely aggrieved. The teacher doesn't understand herself, she is angry with herself, does she still have a chance to defend herself? Liu Yan was a little complaining. This time, she really didn't know how to resolve it.
But fortunately, in addition to Xu Shu's attitude, there are many visible and tangible problems waiting for her to solve. One of them was that the spies sent out by Pang Tong broke out a shocking news. The reason why Cao Cao's attack on Xiliang was so fierce was that the fight was separated by a Xichuan Jingzhou, and the Xiliang side was very fierce. It was because Cao Cao killed Ma Teng, a descendant of the Fubo general Ma Yuan, who had been imprisoned in Xudu.
It doesn't matter if this killing, he has a son named Ma Chao, who is a tyrant in Xiliang, and his riding skills are comparable to Zhao Yun, and he is even better than Zhao Yun. As a result, Cao Cao was anxious to Pingxi Liang and gave such a strong man's father to correct the law on the spot, which directly ignited this little overlord, which made Cao Cao's expedition to Xiliang all kinds of earth-shattering and all kinds of tragedy. Legend has it that this Ma Chao didn't take Cao Cao's Cao Ren and Cao Zhang in his eyes at all, and he was so arrogant that he couldn't do it. Moreover, the current situation in Xiliang turned out to be Ma Chao and Han Sui, which surprised Liu Yan. The heart said that there are really people in this world who can make the brothers Cao Ren and Cao Zhang deflated, this Ma Chao is really good!
The reason why she was able to defeat Cao Ren was really because she had known him in her previous life, and she had people like Xu Shu and Pang Tong who were resourceful and powerful people like Zhao Yun around her, so she took advantage of Cao Ren's overly conceited shortcomings and set him up to defeat him.
But this Ma Chao, with his super personal strength alone, has leveled Cao Ren, what a terrifying combat power this is! Liu Yan couldn't help but light up when she heard such news, what kind of character is this Ma Chao, he is so powerful, he can help her clean up Cao Ren so happily, although he didn't wait to kill him, but it was enough to make her happy. In this world, as long as someone helps her defeat Cao Ren, she will be happy! No matter what the reason for this person, Cao Ren who is cleaned up, as long as she cleans up. ,
Pang Tong didn't understand why his junior sister was so happy, because Ma Chao defeated Cao Cao? He was embarrassed to say to Liu Yan, you were happy too early, how could Cao Cao be so easy to bully, you think he was Liu Bei! Is it a person who can pinch casually with a little guts?
This is in the north, Cao Cao's land, he has logistics support and soldiers, and he also has patience, and Ma Chao is powerful, that is also his personal strength, he cooperates with Han Sui, how can people guarantee that people will not pit him? Ma Chao is the little overlord of Xiliang, that's right, when his father Ma Teng was still there, the people of Xiliang sold his father's face, but his father is no longer here, Han Sui, the old wolf, can tolerate Ma Chao, a superhero, to circle fans on his land? Where can it! Cao Cao can force Ma Chao and Han Sui to turn their faces and reap the benefits of the fisherman as long as he uses a little trick, so Xiliang will be Cao Cao's sooner or later. Instead of applauding across the mountain, let's think about what we should do after Cao Cao takes Xiliang!
Pang Tong thought about it, but still decided to say directly: "Princess, my subordinates feel that this Ma Chao is too sharp, I'm afraid that the defeat is decided, should we think about it, once Cao Thief takes Xiliang, how should we deal with ourselves? Maybe it is because we took Nanyang effortlessly that Cao Thief is so eager to capture Xiliang, and then borrow it to Shuzhong to achieve the purpose of entering Xiangyang again." So, we're going to plan for it as soon as possible. ”
"Senior brother, you know a lot about Cao Thief!" Liu Yan smiled and said: "That's right, Cao Thief suffered a loss in Jiangnan, if he can't show his strength and calm Xiliang when he goes back, he was humiliated by a little Ma Chao, this breath is only afraid that he can't swallow it, if he doesn't clean up Ma Chao, he won't be reconciled, there are so many strategists under his hands, and there are many schemes, Ma Chao took the bait properly." ”
"That's what the subordinates mean, so what does the princess think, what should we do?" Pang Tong nodded thoughtfully, thinking that although the little junior sister was young, she had an obvious advantage compared with Zhou Yu, that is, she was better at thinking than him, could listen to opinions, and was not stubborn because of her own preset position. Based on this alone, Pang Tong was glad that he got out in time and decisively jumped ship.
"Otherwise, please go back and summarize the situation in Xiliang, tomorrow I will invite Mr. Yin, and the generals to come to the mansion to discuss matters, please come to the teacher too, let's take a closer look at it, and discuss the next strategic deployment by the way, what do you think, senior brother?" Liu Yan asked Pang Tong's opinion.
Pang Tong nodded yes when he heard this, and as soon as he arched his hand and was about to leave, Liu Yan just wanted to let him go, but then stopped him, with an embarrassed face: "Senior brother, can I ask you for a favor?"
