Chapter 23: Liu Qi
I patted her on the shoulder and motioned for her to put her hair in a bun.
She suddenly took my hand on her shoulder with both hands.
Her hands were cold, icy, and shaky......
I pulled out my hand, grabbed her cold hand, patted the back of her hand, and she looked at me in the bronze mirror and smiled.
She has always been beautiful, and she is beautiful with a smile and a smile......
I think her beauty can turn all beings upside down, and people and gods are jealous......
For some reason, I blurted out.
"I know that you miss your eldest brother Liu Qi very much, the Sun family and Liu Bei have formed an alliance, Liu Bei is friendly with Liu Qi, and Liu Bei and Liu Qi are in one place, I naturally have the opportunity to meet Liu Qi and tell him that you are very good, don't worry about it."
Speaking of which, Liu Yu, who is strong and never cries, actually cried, she turned around and hugged me tightly.
I also wrapped my arms around her and patted her on the back, as if to comfort her.
She lay on my thin shoulders and sobbed, "Don't worry, I will definitely persuade your second brother to let you go with the army." ”
That night, Fei'er came to Xiyuan to reply, telling me to relax and pack my bags, Sun Quan had already agreed to let me go with the army.
I rejoiced, but what I didn't know was ......
Sun Quan just took advantage of my relationship with Gong Jin and wanted to tie up Gong Jin and Cao Cao to the death.
Gong Jin is bound to protect Wu Jun's comfort and fight to the death.
I packed my bags and went with the army.
Gong Jin still said that, he couldn't move around at will, he could only be under his tent, and he couldn't leave his side for half a step at will.
I can only answer them all.
On the day of the expedition, Liu Yu came to see me off in place of Sun Quan.
She also said that she was influenced by her second brother, probably to resolve the conflict between me and Sun Quan, and there was no longer a mustard between brother and sister.
I heard Fei'er say that Liu Yu's health has not been good recently, but she refused to tell me.
It was the middle of winter, and at the coldest time, I was afraid that she would get cold and worsen her condition, so I urged her to leave quickly.
I rolled over and got on my horse, and she smiled at me, and stepped forward to restrain the horse, and she waved her hand to signal that I had something to say.
I bowed my head, and she leaned into my ear and said to me: "Sun Lang is still more handsome in men's clothes, and this military dress is really good-looking." ”
When she said this, I felt like I was fixed and couldn't help myself.
I don't know what kind of mentality she treats me, it's Sun Lang, maybe it's the real Sun Shangxiang now.
She smiled wickedly and turned away, where I fixed looking at her back for a long time, and slowly disappeared from my sight.
Until Gong Jin shouted, "Let's go...... ”
I came to my senses, straightened up, sat upright, raised my hand to the horse's hips, clamped the horse's belly with my feet, and shouted, "Ride...... ”
I followed Gong Jin closely.
Along the way, I followed Gongjin and never left him for a while.
He was very relieved and felt that I was more down-to-earth, less frizzy, calm and calm......
Every time he praised me, I listened quietly, not interjecting and refuting as before, and at first glance he was a bad boy.
Now, after a few months, he was so impressed that he asked me, "Who is it that influenced our Sun Lang?" ”
I looked at him, thought for a moment but didn't answer, and he didn't ask any more.
The army marched for about half a month, and we arrived at Xiakou.
Liu Bei sent soldiers to patrol the river every day, looking at Gongjin's army to arrive earlier.
The patrol soldiers saw a column of pennants fluttering on the river, and hurried back to report to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei came to see Gong Jin, and after shouting and asking for warmth, Liu Bei went straight to the point and asked how many people Gong Jin had brought, and Gong Jin said 20,000.
Liu Bei shook his head, and Gong Jin smiled, "20,000 sailors, 20,000 road soldiers, plus your 10,000 horses, 50,000 is enough, why not be afraid of Cao Cao's old thief, who is known as an army of 800,000." ”
Liu Bei was a little worried......
Gong Jin said again: "Cao Cao's claim of 800,000 troops is probably not true, our army has found that the Central Plains army led by the old thief is only 150,000 or 60,000, even if he has these 1560,000, and he has been fighting for a long time, and he has long been exhausted, plus Liu Cong's subordinates are at most 60,000 or 70,000 people, together in one place, at most more than 200,000 horses, and the left and right Pontus governors still doubt that the old thief can win with such tired and suspicious people." General Liu must not increase the morale of others and destroy his own prestige. ”
Liu Bei was suspicious and a little distrustful of Gong Jin.
So he said: "I heard that Lu Su and the governor sealed the left and right governors at the same time, why don't you see Lu Su?" ”
Gong Jin slapped the case and said angrily: "Since General Liu doesn't trust the Governor of Pontus, then please go and look for it yourself." ”
Liu Bei didn't dare to say anything more.
It's just that this time to discuss the military situation, both sides don't trust each other, so they have to fight separately, and can only dispatch their own original team.
In order to ease the atmosphere, I accosted Liu Bei and said, "General Liu, I don't know if General Liu Qi can be under the tent?" ”
Liu Bei was surprised to see me......
deliberately ridiculed: "Isn't this Sun Lang, the virtuous son-in-law of the Liu Mansion?" My third brother also said that Sun Lang is a talent, and at first glance he is a lifelong beloved, but unfortunately he has no woman to match him, otherwise Sun Lang was decided to be a virtuous son-in-law, my two brothers! I like the tight stuff that Sun Lang likes...... ”
Liu Bei's words made the soldiers laugh in the hall.
I also scratched my head embarrassedly, "The general praised, very ashamed, very ashamed." ”
I don't know what to say, only to relieve the embarrassment with this gibberish.
I only heard Liu Bei say again: "Sun Lang, don't worry, although my two brothers are rough people, they know etiquette, and Sun Lang has found a virtuous and beautiful lady, my two brothers will not dare to mess around." ”
When he said this, there was another burst of laughter in the hall, and he was looking for me to be happy......
I couldn't bother him, so I took out the letter from my sleeve and handed it to him.
"This is a letter from Uchiko to my brother, and I would like to ask you to give it to your brother."
I moved out of Liu Qi to suppress him, and saw that he still dared to laugh with me.
Now, he really doesn't laugh.
Instead, he said goodbye to Gong Jin, and said that the dinner party was for Gong Jin, so I must go together.
I thought that although Liu Bei angered Gong Jin, Gong Jin would definitely go to the banquet regardless of his past suspicions.
Is it just me......
He Liu Bei can say it doesn't matter, it depends on my mood, but now he annoys me.
Let's not go to dinner for the time being......
Besides, I don't want to see Liu Qi, for fear that Liu Qi will see the clues.
In fact, I have been dressed as a man for so many years, and I have never been discovered.
And he married many ladies as men.
More than 100 of my soldiers were women, and whenever I dressed up as men, they all called me Xianggong.
I don't reprimand them, after a day of training, I can talk and laugh at ease, and I have a lot less worries.
Liu Bei walked out with his two brothers, and said that the dinner party should not be drunk with me.
Gong Jin glanced at me, and I knew that he wouldn't allow me to go to the banquet.
So I said: "Governor Dadu, please rest assured, Sun Lang will not go to the dinner party, Sun Lang has been tired for more than half a month, I just want to rest and wait for a battle with Cao Thief." ”
Gong Jin patted me on the shoulder and said that she agreed.
Nightfall......
Gong Jin and the soldiers went to the banquet, and I looked at the night sky under the porch......
The night sky was very bright tonight, and the stars were shining one after another, and I was so happy in my heart that I stole Gongjin's wine and drank it.
I don't know why, but just listening to the war, or asking me to go to war, I get excited......
Could it be that I have militants living in my body, or have I inherited the genes of my father and brother......
Thinking of my father and brother, I suddenly thought of Sun Quanlai......
Although he robbed my lady, but, after all, he is my second brother.
In order to be able to hold the hard-won foundation of Jiangdong, and for Sun Quan to be able to sit firmly in Jiangdong, this battle will be won.
Thinking about it, I looked up and laughed......
I don't know when there was a beautiful man sitting next to him, with the appearance of a heavenly man, handsome and abnormal.
I looked at the beautiful man and smiled, and kept looking him up and down.
So I muttered, "The posture of heaven and man, a rare beautiful man, the beautiful man in the world is not a little better than you, it's just that you, a rare beautiful man, are thin and tight, and it is really distressing, if you don't look like a frightened man, but a soldier?" ”
I lamented and looked at him with pity, I really couldn't bear to be able to go to the battlefield and fight.
So I shook my head and advised: "You still have to practice diligently, at that time, you can only save your life when you go to the battlefield, you can show your skills and stand with Cao Thief to the end, you can keep the great rivers and mountains in front of you, and you can keep the foundation, and don't wear this uniform to us." ”
He listened to my words and coughed violently, covering his mouth with his hands, as if the violent coughing could stop at this moment......
I couldn't bear to look at him, my hands trembled, put down the wine, and patted him on the back, hoping to smooth him out and reduce the pain.
At this moment, I was already sober, and I asked him, "How did you get on the battlefield with this body!" ”
So I looked him up and down, and he was dressed in coarse linen, and he was extremely simple.
He was not wearing a military uniform, and he couldn't tell whether he was from Gongjin's camp or Liu Bei.
He saw my suspicion, smiled reluctantly, clenched his slightly outstretched hand again, put his hands together, and rubbed his palms vigorously......
After a moment, he stopped what he was doing.
Said slowly: "My body has never been very good, there are many brothers and sisters in the family, I am the elder brother, and I work hard in everything, so I have this body disease, and I have eaten a lot of herbs and I have not seen any better, and I have suffered myself, so I simply don't eat anymore, let it be!" ”
I saw that he was not an ordinary soldier in his speech and demeanor.
Very curious, inadvertently, through the moonlight, I saw blood oozing from his fingers.
I raised his hand in shock, spread his palm, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
He didn't slow down, and slowly replied: "This is an old disease, it's okay, don't be afraid, don't scare you." ”
I broke out in a cold sweat and woke up completely.
"When has this been, you have coughed up blood, don't lie to me by saying such things again."
He smiled, and he smiled very kindly, like my deceased eldest brother, who always smiled at me like that.
He said: "It seems that my sister has really found a lover who can be entrusted for life, no wonder she has always cried and shouted in recent years that Sun Lang will not marry, and now I am very happy to see you, Sun Lang is the best person worthy of being entrusted for life, I am really relieved to be the eldest brother this time." ”
At that time, I suddenly realized that he was Liu Qi, Liu Yu's eldest brother!
