The news of the defeat of the Shu army in Jiangdong spread throughout the entire Shu country in an instant, like wings. On the other side, Cao Cao was originally tossed by the head wind and was sick in bed, and he was depressed day by day. The state of Wei was in the midst of a crisis of contention for storage space. As soon as the good news of victory arrived, Cao Cao was happy, his illness was light, and his spirit grew again.

On the side of Shu Kingdom, Zhuge Liang began to wonder if he had a problem with the eight characters, why was he so unlucky after changing two bosses in a row, and this defeat was both wronged and unjust.

Xun Yu's chess is one higher, so that Zhang Liao and Li Dian defeated the strong with the weak and won, which is not said. Zhuge Liang's skills are not as good as others, he should lose, and he should not be wronged.

But Zhuge Liang also couldn't say it, Zhang Fei intended to take care of Guan Yu's children, and asked Zhuge Liang for the errand of the adjutant of the grain to Guan Yu's two sons.

Zhuge Liang felt that the two children were not young, and their skills were not bad when they usually practiced, and with Lu Meng taking care of them, they should not be able to do anything. How could it be so coincidental that they were ambushed by Zhang Liao? And the people he sent out to ambush Zhang Liao were in vain.

Afterwards, Zhuge Liang figured out that Zhang Liao did not come out to fight, he came to be a human trafficker.

No matter who he bumps into, whether it is the original Sun Quan's person or the original Liu Bei's person, as long as he recognizes either of these two families, catches it back and hangs it on the flagpole like this, okay, there is no need to fight, and the opposite side will definitely be a mess.

This is a soldier who surrenders without a fight, and goes to the army to fight and plot! What is used is the superficial unification of one's own side, but the root of Jingzhou and Jiangdong has never been unified!

This is something that cannot be prevented at all, and Zhuge Liang feels that he is a little wronged.

Before this, whenever there was a war in Shu, it was bound to be strong when it was strong, invincible, and it had never lost, let alone been choked by the enemy.

But now, Guan Xing has been captured and choked Zhang Fei's life, and Lao Zhang is so anxious that he is going crazy! He is waiting and hoping that the other party will come to negotiate the conditions, even if he uses his old life to quickly exchange Guan Xing back.

This made Zhuge Liang very passive, he understood Zhang Fei's mood, but he knew that the most important thing at this time was to be anxious.

Although the eldest princess is in Sichuan, this is also her territory, and it is still the territory that she values very much, will she tolerate the enemy to negotiate conditions with her and let her bleed? If Jingzhou loses its interests because of this, I am afraid that she will lose her head!

Thinking about it like this, Zhuge Liang's anxious heart settled down, it is not terrible to defeat the battle, but what is terrible is to collapse for thousands of miles, and now, the form is very severe, but it is far from the point of being led by the nose.

For the sake of his own life, and for his own career reputation, he must find a way to turn things around, the world has been divided, and Shu is the last place where he can settle down.

Zhuge Liang rose up, and Liu Yan, who was far away in Sichuan, was not slow to get the news. In fact, the Cao clan on the other side did everything to fight the enemy, and he couldn't wait to spread the news of his victory all over the world overnight.

They felt that with Guan Xing as a hostage, the other side would definitely not dare to fight again, and maybe they would pay a huge price for rescuing the hostages.

Now let Zhang Fei exchange the entire Jiangdong for Guan Xing, and he is willing to change!

The battle report from the front has not arrived, but the news of the defeat of the first battle has arrived. Moreover, what Liu Yan got was the news of her own fiasco, countless casualties, and rivers of blood.

This shocked her very much, according to her thoughts, her own strength was higher than the other party, and she deserved to win. Even if Xun Yu has the ability to reach the sky and scatter beans into soldiers, his own side will not be bloody, and countless casualties will be lost.

knew that this news was very watery and couldn't be taken seriously, but her heart sank, and she was afraid that it would be true that she would lose the battle.

After losing the battle ahead, what should I say? Convene a meeting to discuss how to be ashamed? Liu Yan shook her head secretly, the teacher and Pang Tong had already said that Xun Yu was very powerful and could not be provoked, but she did not believe in evil and wanted to provoke her, but she failed. What can we discuss with them in a meeting? I didn't say anything, and apologized for the compensation for the land cution, just like Sun Quan did before. No, you can't be so cowardly!

I don't want to listen to my subordinates say frustrating words, but the battle report from the front line can't help but reply, Liu Yan is a little resentful, and said that I just lost the battle over there, and I will reprimand me here, I can't say it, after all, people have long told you that Xun Yu is very powerful. But if she comforts Zhuge Liang and says that it's not a big deal, won't she lose the battle, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, it's not a big deal, I admit the compensation for the land cut, and she doesn't want to.

, the old lady broke into the rivers and lakes at the age of 10, and she has not tasted defeat in the past 16 years, and I have never stepped on others, and no one has stepped on me, and she wants to threaten me? No way! What a defeat, what a thousand miles of red land, it's all! The old lady doesn't believe a word!

Thinking about it, I can only take the procrastination trick, I don't express my position here, the right to be the news is blocked, I don't know about it, and I should not receive the battle report in the future, give Senior Brother Zhuge enough time to play.

If he cherishes his job and is a dedicated person, he must be racking his brains to make up for the loss at this time, or even find an opportunity to fight back.

On the other hand, if he has no shoulders and doesn't know what to do, then he will definitely not dare to make any decisions, and Liu Yan doesn't have to worry about what deal he has made with Cao Wei privately, at this time, except for Zhuge Liang, everyone else in the leadership team is Liu Yan's henchmen.

If Zhuge Liang didn't think about settling down to make up for the loss after the accident, he would wait for Liu Yan to wipe his buttocks. So...... Liu Yan felt bored for a while, hoping that he was not such a person. On my side, there are a lot of things to do!

The timeline rewinds back to the afternoon of January 1, a tea party was held in the Chengdu Princess's Mansion, and Liu Yan invited the young couple who were married by herself at the beginning of the year to the Princess's Mansion for tea. First, I wanted to see the future of Shu with my own eyes and see their spiritual outlook.

Second, he wanted to give "Mrs. Huang Zhang" another chance to get close to him, and this time, Huang Xu was not there, he followed the soldiers of the broken army camp to Dingjun Mountain to garrison, and did not return to Chengdu if he was not called.

Liu Yan thinks so, without Huang Xu by her side to be vigilant from time to time, that person should take action, after all, the financier behind her will not raise her in vain. After marrying for so long, she must be in a hurry to get nothing.

The others didn't know what was going on, and they felt that His Highness had finally made a decision that was in line with her identity and age.

But Pang Tong was frightened into a cold sweat after knowing the news, Your Highness is right to lure the snake out of the hole, but this is too dangerous, what if you are injured by a snake?

However, past experience tells Pang Tong that His Royal Highness's decision is unquestionable, and even if Xu Shu goes out, it is useless.

There is no way, all Pang Tong can do is to ask people to send a letter to Huang Xu and ask him to rush back to Chengdu. At this time, you can't suggest that His Royal Highness send Huang Xu back, maybe what people want is to show weakness to the enemy, so he can only grieve Huang Xu and be an invisible person for the time being, it's best if it's okay, just treat him as if he hasn't come.

As a result, something really happened that day, in order to congratulate Her Royal Highness the eldest princess on her birthday, each couple prepared a congratulatory gift to be dedicated to Liu Yan. These gifts are prepared in advance and inspected beforehand.

Only Mrs. Huang, Zhang, entered the princess's mansion empty-handed. Others offered all kinds of gifts, and she did not squint from her seat, and when it was her turn she said unhurriedly that the gift she offered was a water sleeve dance.

The reason is that the Huang family is favored by His Royal Highness, and the treasures of the family are given by His Royal Highness, only this dance is the Zhang family heirloom, called "Returning to the Wind and Sending Far Away", which is a relic of the royal family, and is the most suitable for congratulatory gifts.

Liu Yanxin said I knew you were going to come and dance, I'm afraid that if you jump and jump, jump in front of me, give me a knife.

Yu Ji danced the sword for the king of Chu, and in order to commit suicide more beautifully, Xiang Zhuang danced the sword in order to assassinate Gaozu. Now you dance for me, for suicide or for assassination?

is like a mirror in her heart, but her face is surprised, waiting for her to come out of her tricks.

When the music started, the "Mrs. Huang" who had changed her dance costume was graceful, her skin was as white as snow, her carefully painted eyebrows and eyes were fascinating, with a flying skirt and flowing cloud sleeves, Liu Yan felt that Cai Lu when she was a girl was not worthy of lifting her shoes.

However, beauty is beautiful, Liu Yan no longer paid attention to it after seeing it, and saw that the men present were also sitting in danger without squinting, and they were quite satisfied, if anyone showed their eyes in this kind of scene, they didn't have to wait until they went home and knelt on the washboard, and the scene would be overlooked.

Seeing that the woman was getting closer and closer to her, Liu Yan leaned forward, pretending to be fascinated. In her heart, she thought that if she did it at this time, it would be a huge turmoil, and everyone present would be affected, and it would take a lot of effort to appease and eliminate the impact afterwards. However, this is also what the thief on the other side is happy to see, right?

At that time, Liu Yan didn't know that the battle of Lujiang would fail, and when the time came, the two things would be superimposed and fermented together, and the destructive power would not be a little bit. Now she thinks she is well prepared, she can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai regardless of the wind and waves.

Liu Yan is full of confidence, and the opposite "Mrs. Huang" is also determined to win. When she felt that she smelled a vague aroma, and was a little dizzy and wanted to open her mouth, the other party had already approached, holding her hand with one hand, and the other hand seemed to want to circle her neck.

At this time, she could no longer hear the sound of the scene, but she was not in a hurry, because she had a knife in her hand. That's right, she had a knife in her hand.

The double-edged dagger that Huang Zhong gave her would take with her in advance whenever she felt in danger. Under the cover of the wide robe and wide sleeves, the blade slashed her arm, and the pain made her wake up instantly, but she still pretended to be dazed, and watched the musicians suddenly change their faces, throw away their instruments and stand up.

The young men and women present were all here to give gifts, and no one brought weapons, so it was inevitable that they would panic. The ladies shouted one after another.

Liu Yan saw "Mrs. Huang" with a happy face, saw her pull off the hairpin on her head, and wanted to cut off her head with a dagger, her hand just raised and her eyes were dark, and then she calmed down and saw that the woman had fallen to the ground, and a pitch-black crossbow arrow was inserted in her throat.

Everything came to an abrupt end, Liu Yan only felt that he was shrouded in darkness, closed his eyes with peace of mind, he was back, he didn't have to worry about anything now, and he was ready to meet the subsequent storm!

Huang Xu has always been hiding in the dark, he knows that his own people arranged by the military advisor have already surrounded the main hall, and he knows that there are countless arrows facing the woman, as long as she does it, there is no way to escape, and the military advisor has always done things safely.

But he did it first, and the next second the woman pulled out the hairpin, his arrow was off the string. It shouldn't be, it's not his style of killing, but the acceleration of his heartbeat at that moment made his mind go blank, and he didn't think about it at all.

By the time he realized it, the woman had already been killed by him, and Liu Yan had already fallen to the ground.

At the same time, the screens around the hall were torn down, and a large number of soldiers poured in, and none of the musicians were arrested. Although he knew that Liu Yan had seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, he still used a dark shawl to cover her sight.

When Liu Yan woke up, she found herself lying on her bed, and after asking the maid, she found out that it was late at night on the third day of the first lunar month, and it was the general of the Right Army who sent her back.

Ay...... Looking at the rooftop, my mind was full of thoughts: it was time to recognize the facts, and in my lifetime, if I couldn't do anything in my lifetime, I should accept my fate. Even if there is reluctance, it is only your own private matter. A teacher is always a teacher, and can only be a teacher. Those selfish extravagant hopes in my heart were regarded as young and ignorant, but now they have to let go.

Selfishly trying to show you the best side of me, but the result is often self-defeating, so that you can see the most unbearable me, I used to be ignorant, irritable, reckless, and comatose, and now I am sad and drunk and unconscious together, in short, I will come to whatever I am afraid of.

You've broken your heart for me, and you have to beware of me all the time, I'll always be a child who doesn't grow up in your eyes, I need protection, I need to forgive, I need accommodation, and the only thing I don't need is about what I want the most.

At this moment, I finally understand that in my last life, I received mercy from you, and I could not change my fate. All I have received from you in this life is still pity, and although this mercy has changed my fate, it is still only pity.

I wanted to do my best to get you the best in the world, but the truth is that I got to where you are today.

Therefore, the daughter of the deceased master, the apprentice, the boss, the princess, the eldest princess, any of these identities are not worthy of you. And other than that, I'm nothing to you!

I desperately want to get close to you, but you are getting farther and farther away from me, seeing that the hope is getting slimmer and slimmer, I am tired and understand you, but in the end I am not worthy, and I should not be willful.

Liu Yan finally admitted defeat, no longer deceived herself, and spent sixteen years trying to seek, but now she is desperately trying to persuade herself to give up, every time she thinks of one more reason to give up, it is like a knife cutting off a piece of meat on her heart, tears flow down uncontrollably, and wet the pillow towel.

If I could go back to the past, to the day I first met sixteen years ago, I would definitely not worship you as a teacher, I was stupid at that time! Sima Hui was the first to say that he wanted to take me as an apprentice, but I chose you, but at that time, it was good to choose anyone, but I couldn't choose you.

I will definitely not be able to go back in this life, and if I still have this mind in the next life, I will definitely not forget it, and I will stand on an equal footing with you from the beginning.
