83. [080] Yanzhou came to envoy
Gan Ning caught a lot of fish in his hands when he came up from the water, he threw the fish on the shore, shouted and called out to a few bored soldiers who were on guard to come and help collect the fish, and prepare it for steaming or barbecue for a while.
The soldiers did not leave directly after receiving the fish, they squeezed their eyebrows at each other, and pushed out a seemingly bold hairy boy and asked shyly: "Boss, ...... you and Lord Cai?"
Shen Xian has always adhered to the principle that her own soldiers are in charge of herself, and she basically does not interfere much in other people's training, and Gan Ning can't afford to be a high-ranking official, besides, these soldiers are all good at robbing houses and houses on the water with the bandit leader before, and they were later recruited by Shen Xian together, and their habits have not changed much, and they are not used to being with Gan Ning.
"What are the bunnies thinking!" Gan Ning rolled his eyes and unceremoniously teased the soldier's head full of water: "Do you dare to say this to Mr. Gongda?" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare!" The soldier's head swung like a rattle: "Boss, you don't know, Mr. Xun knows that your face was gloomy when you ran away with Lord Cai...... Tsk tsk. ”
"It was Master Cai who ran away with me, thank you." Gan Ning showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and corrected with a smile: "I don't dare to abduct her." ”
It's not that I'm afraid of Xun You, but I'm afraid of Shen Xian, you must know that Shen Xian is very precious Cai Yan and Gan Qian, and even the girls in Zuiyue Tower have announced that they want to protect them, which is probably one of the troubles that the lord is a woman.
"Don't you dare, what?"
Cai Yan's brisk voice came from behind him, and Gan Ning lay on his back on the ground like a dead fish, and glanced at her and Xun You lazily: "Don't dare to eat fish...... Oh no, I'll be able to eat fish later. ”
Clean almost leaked his mouth, but Cai Yan didn't care, she just asked casually, as for Xun You, as long as Cai Yan was fine, he was usually very good at talking.
"The lord seems to like to eat fish." Xun You said suddenly.
Cai Yan glanced at Xun You with a strange expression: "Who did you listen to?" How do you know? ”
"Guo Fengxiao." Xun You spat out a name.
Cai Yan smiled slightly: "Nonsense, he lied to you, the lord hates eating fish the most, she likes crabs." ”
"Really?" Xun Yu was noncommittal.
When Xun You and Cai Yan were discussing the boring question of whether Shen Xian liked to eat crabs or fish, and showed Gan Ning's affection intentionally or unintentionally, Shen Xian, who was drinking medicine, sneezed several times in a row.
"Are you caught a cold?" Hua Tuo stared at Shen Xian with a frown, and pressed his hand on her pulse: "You drink it first, and then I'll prescribe you side medicine." ”
"I'm fine, thank you, Master!" Looking at the black medicinal soup that was still steaming in her hand, Shen Xian was so frightened that she immediately rejected Hua Tuo's suggestion: "It's just that someone misses me, isn't it a cold wind?" ”
Hua Tuo cut a snort, and said with disdain on his face: "Who will miss you?" ”
"It's too much."
Shen Xian muttered in a low voice, she pinched her nose and raised her head, and poured down the bitter detoxification soup in one go, and when she caught a glimpse of Hua Tuo's satisfied expression, Shen Xian breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, Shen Xian was very skeptical that Hua Tuo had deliberately added Coptis chinensis to the medicine.
Since that day in the prison to ask that the spy is the people of the Tiger Camp, and these people have poisoned Shen Xian, Hua Tuo has become a little nervous, Shen Xian has to personally take care of Shen Xian's daily food and clothing, and if there is a slight inappropriateness, Shen Xian is strictly forbidden to eat indiscriminately, and he also poured her a lot of indescribable decoctions......
Of course, Shen Xian knew that Hua Tuo was for her safety, but let the master take care of these chores himself...... I always feel that it's not good to bother his old man?
In this regard, Zhang Zhongjing took advantage of Hua Tuo's absence to secretly comfort Shen Xian and said: "You just let him be busy, to be honest, I'm so ashamed this time, there are two people, me and Hua senior, but I don't even know when you were poisoned......"
Looking at Zhang Zhongjing's face full of shame, Shen Xian suddenly realized that she finally understood why Hua Tuo was always sullen these days. Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, the two miracle doctors, are famous, but they didn't prevent someone from poisoning Shen Xian, if it spread, it would be a self-defeating thing.
Although Shen Xian thinks that Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing are not responsible for this matter, and if she wants to settle the account, she is looking for those spies, but if she obediently can make the two old men feel at ease, it is okay to drink a few more bowls of medicine.
So Shen Xian simply gave up and handed over all the government affairs to Liu Xuan to deal with.
It turns out that Liu Xian is just lazy, once he starts to move seriously, those official documents piled up into a small mountain can fall at a speed visible to the naked eye until they disappear, which is the same as Shen Xian, I don't know if the Liu family has different procrastination.
developed a subordinate who worked hard, which made Shen Xian's mood continue to be sunny, and sometimes she would give Liu Xian a vacation, and the two of them would sit in the pavilion in the back garden of the Taishou Mansion and play chess or something.
Shen Xian's chess skills are simply poisonous, except for Cai Yan, basically no one is willing to play with her, Xun You is so angry with her that she is smoking, and even Guo Jia can only accompany Shen Xian to play backgammon - although this is Shen Xian's own request, because she feels that playing chess with Guo Jia is too discouraged by her enthusiasm as a beginner. It's not that Guo Jia's Go level is not high, on the contrary, even Cai Yan has to praise his skills.
But Guo Jia played chess with Shen Xian, and the games were all draws, which made people speechless.
Although Guo Jia defended that this was his little interest, because he was reluctant to win and make Shen Xian sad, and he didn't want to lose, so there was only one way left, which was to draw.
But Shen Xian was noncommittal about this statement, she felt that Guo Jia was more poisonous than her.
In contrast, Liu Xian is a good person, when he plays chess with Shen Xian, he will neither crush with the level of a master at full power, nor will he deliberately lose to Shen Xian, his chess strength is only a little higher than Shen Xian's level every time, until Shen Xian surpasses him, he will continue to raise his level.
In this way, Shen Xian will not feel very bored, and she can exercise her chess skills, which is simply amazing.
Sometimes Shen Xian feels that the more she knows Liu Yu, the more she feels that Liu Miao is kind, that feeling is like meeting a long-lost brother, but it is different from Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's kind of brother, if you have to make an analogy, it is probably that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are brothers, and Liu Miao is a cousin, right?
It's still strange to say that.
The two of them were just ordinary superiors and subordinates at first, because of the identity of Shen Xian, Shen Xian was even very wary of Liu Xuan, after all, this is the orthodox Yangzhou pastor; Later, Shen Xian gradually discovered that Liu Miao was indeed not so keen on power, and he did whatever he was asked to do, and never complained, no matter how difficult it was to do.
This kind of expression generally represents two situations, one is that Liu Miao pretended to be too successful, and the other is that Liu Xian defected to Shen Xian sincerely.
This is exactly what makes Shen Xian puzzled, if you want to say that Liu Xian is pretending, he can deceive Guo Jia and Jia Xu, this disguise is too terrible; Seriously...... In these years, the local officials basically have a heroic dream, so they are basically unwilling to be subservient, Shen Xian has only seen Han Fu, the kind of person who was so scared by Yuan Shao that he gave up his power, but he didn't expect that there would be a second one, and he didn't have a military deterrent Liu Xian gave up resistance, it was just a soft lie and let him tease!
That's too considerate, right?
Later, everyone went out to fight, and only Shen Xian and Liu Miao were left in charge of Lujiang. Before leaving, Zhou Yu also asked Shen Xian if she needed to keep another person, just in case. Shen Xian has always been at ease and bold in employing people, and this time is the same, so she tactfully rejected Zhou Yu's suggestion. Zhou Yu didn't say anything more, just asked Shen Xian to be careful.
"It's okay to believe in people, but sometimes you have to believe in yourself."
Zhou Yu touched Shen Xian's head and admonished in a gentle voice.
At the end of the memory, Shen Xian held the cold white jade chess pieces in her hand, and knocked the chessboard regularly one by one, she looked at the seemingly unsolvable endgame on the board, sighed long, and reached into the chess basket with the other hand to hold the round chess pieces in her hand and grab them for fun.
Liu Xuan said that playing chess can properly exercise the ability to arrange troops, and this statement was unanimously agreed by Guo Jia, Jia Xu and Zhou Yu, especially Zhou Yu, who strongly recommended Shen Xian to learn hard and cultivate her sentiments. However, Shen Xian stared at the neatly arranged chessboard, and her eyes were round, and she couldn't see anything related to the arrangement of troops.
Just when Shen Xian felt that she could still save it and make persistent efforts, Liu Xian hurried over.
Shen Xian was a little surprised, because in his memory, Liu Yu rarely had such a hurry, he was like a lazy version of Xun Yu, always looking unfazed.
"What's the matter?"
Shen Xian pushed open the window and took a piece of chicken tongue incense and put it in the stove to light it, trying to dispel the smell of medicine in the room. She likes to smell the aroma of boiling Chinese medicine, which does not mean that others also like this smell.
Liu Xian tried his best to restrain the somewhat flustered expression on his face, and bowed to Shen Xian: "My lord, the envoy from Yanzhou is visiting." ”
Shen Xian was slightly stunned, forgot the strength of her hand for a while, and directly crushed a white jade chess piece into powder.
Liu Xian was shocked by the power of Shen Xian's sudden outburst, Shen Xian smiled wryly, and secretly piled the pieces that had been crushed into powder behind the cup and pretended that they didn't exist. Then Shen Xian clapped her hands to attract Liu Xuan's attention, and asked calmly, "Yanzhou is here...... Who is it? ”
Cao Cao finally drove Lu Bu to Xuzhou with the help of Yuan Shao not long ago, which made Yuan Shu angry, he had already identified Xuzhou as his bag, but Lu Bu is now running to stick a bar, who can beat this killing god?
Yanzhou has been decided, and Cao Cao will go to Yangzhou sooner or later, which is also his original purpose. But after a battle with Lu Bu, Yuan Shao's goal of secretly rubbing was achieved, Cao Cao's vitality was greatly injured, and he had to rest and recuperate for at least a period of time, and he could not immediately send troops to Yangzhou, nor could he threaten Yuan Shao.
Shen Xian is extremely grateful to Yuan Shao for this, this time of Cao Cao's cultivation is also an opportunity for her to defeat Jiangxia and Nanjun, just fight who is faster, anyway, she has to set the overall situation before Boss Cao recovers, and no matter how unwilling Cao Cao is, he can only feel aggrieved in his heart.
Of course, Shen Xian believed that Cao Cao would not sit still even if he could not send troops, and he would definitely operate some things to ensure that Yangzhou would not be taken away by others, and Shen Xian stayed to prevent this incident. It's just that Shen Xian didn't expect Cao Cao to send someone to Lujiang, she thought that Cao Cao might go to Yuan Shu or Liu Biao, but what did he do in Lujiang? Nominally, the owner of Lujiang is...... Liu Xuan?
Shen Xian noticed that something was wrong, and without waiting for Liu Xian to answer, she frowned and asked, "What are you doing with me?" Even if a messenger comes, you should be the one who will receive you, right? ”
A wry smile appeared on Liu Xuan's face, and he bowed lower: "I'm really ashamed, that envoy didn't come to see me...... He wants to see you by name. ”
Liu Miao was tricked, or that person could see from the beginning that Lujiang was not Liu Miao's master, but someone else.
Shen Xian's heart jumped fiercely, and a bad premonition came to her heart, she pressed her temple with one hand, and asked tentatively, "Wait, don't tell me to come to ...... Named Xi Zhicai? ”
Liu Miao nodded.
Oh, my God. Shen Xian covered her face.
Guo Jiajia is not there, but trouble is coming to the door, and the fun is really big now.
"Are you smart?"
Shen Xian asked Liu Xuan very bluntly, the expression on her face was extremely sincere.
Liu Miao was a little stunned by Shen Xian's question, and he replied tentatively: "...... Not smart? ”
"That's the end of it." Shen Xian said expressionlessly: "I'm not smart either, so what's the use of you?" ”
Is there any necessary connection between these two sentences?
Liu Miao looked dazed: "That...... Clever? ”
"How about comparing with Guo Fengxiao?" Shen Xian was a little interested, and she asked again: "Tell the truth! I know the two of you are on good terms. ”
Liu Miao felt that Shen Xian's words should have no special meaning, so he shook his head honestly: "No, Mr. Fengxiao is a genius, and it is difficult for us to match it." ”
Shen Xian instantly regained her indifferent face: "Oh, what should I do then?" It's definitely not a good thing that this drama is coming, but the worst thing is that he's still very smart, probably at the same level as your Mr. Fengxiao, and it seems that we can't compare with each other. ”
"This ......" Liu Miao was stunned for a moment, he had never seen such a righteous and self-defeating lord, so his normal thoughts were also led astray by Shen Xian, and he rushed towards the crooked road.
Liu Miao had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly said, "Lord, why don't we drive him out?" ”
Shen Xian: "...... Good idea! Just go! ”
So Liu Xian went to catch up with Zhicai, and only halfway through his IQ recovered, he instantly felt that it was very inappropriate to drive people away, but before leaving, Shen Xian's hopeful eyes were still blocked in his heart, and Liu Xian had to be cheeky and hard-headed.
However, when Liu Miao returned to the hall, he found that there was chaos here, and when the servants saw him, they shouted in horror: "Lord Liu! Oh no! The honored guest, he, he suddenly vomited blood and fainted! ”
How could it be! Liu Miao was shocked, he had only been away for so long before such a bad incident happened! Is it poisoning? Or is it done on purpose? Liu Xuan's brain began to run rapidly, thinking about the solution to this matter.
You must know that driving people away and letting people die in Lujiang are two completely different events! The former is easy to solve, and the latter will start a war if he is not careful!
After thinking about it, Liu Miao felt that he really couldn't make the decision about this matter, so he could only quickly ask people to carry Xi Zhicai to the guest room, and then ask Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing to save his life, and he himself went to Shen Xian to report.
Halfway through, Liu Miao met Shen Xian, who came in a hurry, seeing Shen Xian's pale face, he obviously knew about it, Liu Xian didn't dare to talk nonsense, he followed Shen Xian half a step away and quickly described the matter, and wanted to ask something, Shen Xian suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
At this time, Shen Xian and Liu Xian were stopping at the door of the guest room where Xi Zhicai was placed, Shen Xian took a deep breath and said slowly: "Don't worry, you don't know Xi Zhicai...... Actually, I don't know him either, but he's very similar to Bonghyo, and sometimes it's always right to substitute for him, so ......"
As Shen Xian spoke, she suddenly picked up the hem of her skirt and kicked open the door of the guest room with her leg raised, she stepped through the door with her head held high, looked around, and finally fell on the bed.
Xi Zhicai happened to sit on the edge of the bed, and when he saw Shen Xian enter the door, he looked at it with a smile, and then nodded at Liu Xian, who was a little stunned: "Liu Yuanjun, thank you." ”
“…… So he's pretending. ”
Shen Xian finished the previous sentence in a flat tone.
Hearing Shen Xian's remarks, Xi Zhicai covered his lips with his hand and coughed twice, and after panting evenly, he said slowly: "Liu Gongzi-no, miss, don't say that, we still have some friendship, right?" ”
"No, who are you?" Shen Xian looked at Xi Zhicai condescendingly, and replied indifferently: "I never remember too clearly about patients who don't listen to the doctor's instructions. ”
Without waiting for Xi Zhi to answer, Shen Xian said again: "Oh, by the way, this gentleman is still alive, this is really a miracle in the history of medicine, I think my master must be very interested in studying your case, what do you think?" ”
Shen Xian's master is Hua Tuo, and he knew about this matter when Shen Xian first gave Xi Zhicai a needle. Hua Tuo's name is famous all over the world, it is said that this miracle doctor has a strange temper, and sometimes he is terrible, and once tried to use a knife to cut the head of a patient with a headache to treat people, and then scared the patient away.
Hearing the word "Hua Tuo", Xi Zhicai unconsciously trembled: The apprentice's acupuncture technique is already terrifying, how terrifying is the master's?
Xi Zhicai hurriedly refused: "No need, thank you Lord Liu for your concern, I think I'm okay, I don't need to trouble Doctor Hua." ”
"Really?" Shen Xian pouted: "That's a pity." ”
Seeing that Shen Xian didn't insist, Xi Zhicai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he regained his previous appearance of smiling Yan Yan: "Lord Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you interested in talking?" ”
Although Shen Xian had rejected Xi Zhicai in disguise before, Xi Zhicai still asked straight to the point, and his tone and demeanor were very confident.
Sure enough, Shen Xian nodded after a moment of thought: "Okay, I don't know what this gentleman wants to talk about?" ”
Xi Zhicai slowly stood up by holding the head of the bed, he took out a handkerchief to wipe away the trace of blood left on his lips, and stared at Shen Xian's beautiful face with bright eyes: "Let's talk about Lord Liu, you are obviously a Yizhou pastor, why did you appear in Lujiang at this moment and become the lord of Lujiang?" ”
In the living room, Shen Xian and Xi Zhicai sat on both sides, and Liu Xian sat with Shen Xian.
The atmosphere in the room can be called tense, Shen Xian bowed her head to taste tea expressionlessly, Xi Zhicai swayed back and forth with a smile on his face, Liu Xian looked at these two people, and finally chose to bow his head silently, anyway, even if he wanted to break the silence, he should not speak.
After being quiet for a long time, Xi Zhicai finally said slowly: "Lord Liu, everyone is a smart person, you don't know the purpose of my coming here, right?" ”
"I don't know." Shen Xian said lightly: "Sir, you might as well speak up." ”
Xi Zhicai looked at Shen Xian with interest for a long time before shaking his head: "Lord Liu, in order to save your brother-in-law, you sneaked into a dangerous place like Lujiang alone, you are really brave, but it's a pity that ......."
Xi Zhicai suddenly changed his words, and his tone was deeply tempting and teasing: "If Yuan Highway has the son and sister-in-law who turned Shouchun upside down and kidnapped his own son, it is Yizhou Mu Liu Shangyu...... What do you think he will do? ”
After Xi Zhicai asked, he fell silent, a smile on his lips hooked up, and he looked at Shen Xian silently without saying anything at all.
Shen Xian thought to herself: Damn, it's all Guo Fengxiao's fault, Lao Tzu's people have all been thrown to Yanzhou, and when he meets Boss Cao in the future, he may be laughed at!
The reason why she dared to continue to stay in Lujiang as a military general was because she was Liu Shangyu The matter had not yet been exposed to Yuan Shu, so in Yuan Shu's eyes, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were still in the same group as him, so Yuan Shu could let Zhou Yu and Sun Ce go to Yangzhou and Jingzhou, because Yuan Shu thought that the territory that was beaten down would be his own in the future.
But if Yuan Shu knew that Shen Xian was the sister-in-law, he would immediately understand that this was just a game for the three of their brothers and sisters, Yuan Shu not only couldn't get Jingzhou, but even Yangzhou couldn't get it, and at that time, Yuan Shu would still be able to watch them fight with peace of mind?
**
The sister-in-law who left her son was Yizhou Mu Liu Shangyu...... What do you think he will do? ”
After Xi Zhicai asked, he fell silent, a smile on his lips hooked up, and he looked at Shen Xian silently without saying anything at all.
Shen Xian thought to herself: Damn, it's all Guo Fengxiao's fault, Lao Tzu's people have all been thrown to Yanzhou, and when he meets Boss Cao in the future, he may be laughed at!
The reason why she dared to continue to stay in Lujiang as a military general was because she was Liu Shangyu The matter had not yet been exposed to Yuan Shu, so in Yuan Shu's eyes, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were still in the same group as him, so Yuan Shu could let Zhou Yu and Sun Ce go to Yangzhou and Jingzhou, because Yuan Shu thought that the territory that was beaten down would be his own in the future.
But if Shen Xian is sister-in-law girl is matter to Yuan Shu knows, he will immediately understand that this is just a game between the three of their brothers and sisters, and Yuan Shu will not only not get Jingzhou, but even Yangzhou will not be able to
