Chapter 377

With Lu Su's order, the entire Chaisang City acted instantly. Lu Su has been at the scene in the north of the city, and after a while, the four gates of Chaisang were closed, and the people who went out to inquire about the news were also taken back.

"Governor, someone saw that Master Lu had already taken a boat north an hour ago."

After listening to the guard's report, Lu Su could have concluded that Lu Xun was going to Xiangyang. immediately ordered: "Ding Feng, Han Dang, the two of you stick to Chaisang, and the others follow me on the boat and quickly pursue!" ”

"Governor, what's going on?" Ding Feng and Han Dang didn't know what was going on.

"Do according to the instructions of the Governor of Pontus, until the Governor of Pontus returns, no one will be allowed to enter or leave the city of Chaisang!" Just now, they were only allowed to enter and not to leave, but now they are simply closing the city gates. This Lu Su usually looks gentle and elegant, a very kind person, and he is not soft at critical moments.

At this emergency moment, we can also see the effect of the Jiangdong Naval Army, especially the Chaisang Naval Army's peacetime training. Half a pillar of incense, the guards in Chaisang City are in place. Xu Sheng took the assembled twenty warships to stand by in the north of Chaisang City!

"These five ships are prepared with ten crossbowmen in addition to the necessary boatmen. The rest of the people will be brought by General Lao Xu to follow! Send another 3,000 soldiers to search all the way up the Yangtze River! When you see Master Lu, you must notify Ben Dudu as soon as possible! Let's go, full speed north! "Lu Su is usually gentle and elegant, but if Lu Xun leaves today, he is really not elegant. If Lu Xun really defected to Liu Cong in Wu County, his responsibility would be a little smaller, or Lu Xun left quietly, and he didn't know that he would feel better.

"Hurry, hurry!" Lu Su estimated that Lu Xun was on an ordinary merchant ship, and the speed should not be fast, and the five ships he brought had already unloaded most of the crew, and they were warships, so they had an advantage in speed, but Lu Su was worried that Lu Xun would go ashore halfway and take the land route, or Jiangxia would send a naval army to respond. Therefore, Lu Xun must be stopped before he leaves the Chaisang territory.

……

An hour ago, outside the north gate of Chaisang, Lu Xun, Liu Wen, and Zhuge Jin boarded the ship one after another. Seeing Lu Xun, the Jinyi guards on the ship were stunned, and the task they received was to answer Zhuge Jin. I didn't expect this Lu Xun to be there, and Chai Sang and Yu Zhang's Jinyi Wei didn't notify in advance?

Of course, what was even more unexpected was Lu Ji on the other boat. Seeing Lu Xun's slightly flustered expression, Lu Ji didn't know that he was still hesitating an hour ago. In his opinion, Lu Xun should have arrived in Jingzhou a long time ago.

"Bo Yan, is that you?" After confirming it again and again, Lu Ji stood at the bow of the boat and asked.

"Third Uncle ......" Lu Ji is young, but he is Lu Kang's son-in-law, and he is still Lu Xun's father in terms of seniority. Lu Xun only vaguely heard Zhuge Jin say that there were Danyang people on the ship, but he didn't expect Lu Ji to be really on the boat. If you don't follow Zhuge Jin out of the city......

Seeing Lu Xun call his uncle, Zhuge Jin was also very surprised, is this really Lu Ji? Hurriedly asked people to stop the boat and invited Lu Ji from another boat. After some greetings, we continued to march in the direction of Wuchang! I heard Lu Ji say that in addition to him, there were more than 30 core members of the Lu clan on the ship.

"I was in a hurry, but it's a pity that I lost some family business and fields." After seeing Lu Xun, Lu Ji didn't listen to his complaints.

Lu Xun only smiled bitterly, being able to withdraw more than thirty people from Danyang so quickly without alarming Sun Quan, the ability of this brocade guard was far beyond his imagination. He can also understand Lu Ji, after all, he has been in one place for a long time, and it is not easy to save a family business. Sun Quan knew that he and Lu Ji had taken refuge in Jingzhou, but he was afraid that the remaining Lu clan members would also scatter and flee. When the production capacity is sold, it is sold.

But compared to life, family property is nothing at all! Lu Xun had to comfort his little uncle: "When the prime minister sweeps Yangzhou, you and I can go back to Danyang to revive the family." ”

"Hey, it's better to be like this, if it takes a long time, those houses and shops will be ruined for them." Lu Ji thinks that Lu Xun and Liu Cong should have discussed it a long time ago. The reason why I only wrote like this was because I was afraid of alarming Sun Quan. If he knew, ten days after they set off, Lu Xun was still hesitating, afraid that his soul would be scattered! The result of leaving his hometown in such a reckless way may be a chicken flying egg fight!

"You two, don't worry about that anymore. Bo Yan is Prime Minister Liu Cheng's brother-in-law, another talent, and when he arrived in Jingzhou, it was not simple to be a county guard. In a few years, even Lu Gongzi is afraid that he will also be a member of the DPRK and the Central Committee. What is that little family business in Danyang......"

"Hehe, that's just as well." Hearing Zhuge Jin say this, Lu Ji smiled awkwardly. This Lu Xun is the brother-in-law of the current prime minister, and he also knows Lu Xun's talent. Coupled with his own prestige and talent, as Zhuge Jin said, it is not difficult to want us to have a decent family business. And his father is just a county guard, this Liu Cong has come all the way to find Lu Xun, and he will definitely reuse it!

Seeing Lu Ji turn from complaining to smiling, the happiest person was Liu Wen. She was nervous along the way, for fear that Lu Xun would suddenly turn around and return to Chaisang City. It's hard to get on the boat, if this Lu Jiyi complains......

……

"Miss, there seems to be a boat coming up behind!" A brocade guard in charge of vigilance hurriedly came to Liu Wen to report.

"What?" Everyone was nervous, especially Zhuge Jin, he knew that this was still the realm of Chaisang, could it be that Lu Su knew? Now it's a problem. Originally, Jinyi Weimen was resolutely unwilling to stay in Chaisang, and this Zhuge Jin also wanted to determine whether Lu Xun was gone.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xun really didn't leave, and he finally moved Lu Xun, which can be regarded as a gift to Liu Cong. However, if Lu Su catches up, he will definitely board the ship for inspection, and if Lu Su knows that he bewitched Lu Xun, he will definitely not be spared!

Soon the people on all three ships were able to see the ships coming up behind them, and it was clear that they had a shallow draft!

"The warship is the Chaisang Navy!" A brocade guard exclaimed!

"Speed up! You guys go ashore, go and report it! One of the leaders of the brocade guards then ordered, they had experienced a hundred battles, and the ships of the Chaisang navy were all too familiar. When you see a warship, you know it's not good. Not to mention five, even if it is a warship, it is impossible to compete with the sailors on the warship on the Yangtze River with more than a dozen of them, not to mention that there are dozens of family members and core members of the Zhuge family and the Lu family on these ships......

"Bo Yan, Bo Yan, is that you?" The boat behind was getting closer and closer, and Lu Xun was standing at the bow of the boat and could hear Lu Su's voice very clearly. That's right, the one standing on the warship led by the leader is none other than Lu Su, the governor of the Jiangdong Navy Army! Lu Su has the grace of knowing Lu Xun, and it is inevitable that it will be a little embarrassing to meet him on such an occasion now. Of course, what was even more embarrassing was Zhuge Jin, who heard Lu Su's voice and immediately hid in the cabin.

"Bo Yan, where are you going?" The speed of the warship was much faster than that of the merchant ships of Lu Xun and the others, and it arrived a moment ago. After Lu Su confirmed that it was Lu Xun, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved, but fortunately he didn't let Lu Xun go.

"Dudu, it's rude! Thank you for the cultivation of the governor, but you and I are our own masters, and I also ask the governor to let go of Xun...... "Everyone is a smart person, and Lu Xun is no longer turning a corner, since he was caught up by Lu Su, Lu Su must know that he is going to Jingzhou."

"Bo Yan, what do you mean by this? You are sandwiched in Jiangdong, your clansmen are in Jiangdong, I just sent someone to your house to see, and you didn't bring anything. Although Liu Chengxiang is your wife's second brother, you and I are both courtiers of Jiangdong......" Lu Su did not give up, and wanted to persuade Lu Xun: "Stop the boat quickly, go back to Chaisang with me, and the governor of Pontus will block the news, as if it never happened!" ”

"Dudu, even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe you. I have heard that the Governor has always been generous and merciful, so he spared me and my wife. My husband is just a small master in Jiangdong. Now that my second brother is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, it is understandable that my husband and wife will go to each other. This Liu Wen was afraid that Lu Xun would be soft-hearted, so she hurriedly came out of the cabin.

"Brother and sister are also here, you see what you are talking about. Su and Boyan have known each other for more than ten years, how could Su have deceived you? Now is the period of war and chaos, if you want to visit relatives in Xiangyang, you have to show the lord and send someone to escort you! As Lu Su spoke, he motioned for the five warships to form a battle formation and prepare to surround the three merchant ships where Lu Xun and the others were on the river.

"Prepare for battle, the idea is to protect the safety of Miss and the two adults!" In addition to the boatmen and the families and clansmen of the two families, there were only a dozen brocade guards on these three ships. However, these brocade guards are very sharp-eyed, and they can see that there are not many soldiers on these five warships, otherwise the draft of the warships will not be so shallow, and the speed will not be so fast!

"Bo Yan, Bo Yan, stop!" Seeing that the merchant ships in front of him were still accelerating, Lu Su continued to test Lu Xun's pressure.

What to do? Do you really want to go back with Lu Su? But if you don't go, none of the people on these three ships will leave.

"Dudu, Xun hopes that you can take the platform and let Xun ...... go"

"Bo Yan, why are you so confused, if you have anything to say, go back to Chaisang with me!"

"This ......" Lu Xun looked at Lu Su embarrassedly, and then looked at Zhuge Jin in the cabin: "Dudu, I'll go back with you, but these three are passing merchant ships, you must not embarrass them." Xun doesn't want to bother them! ”

"It's all up to you!" Lu Su had already sent someone to investigate, and these ships were parked in Jiangbei in the morning, presumably there was still Mr. Zhuge in Sichuan...... Lu Su also knew that it was still the Sun-Liu Alliance on the surface. Lu Xun didn't want to embarrass Zhuge Liang, and Lu Su didn't need to detain him now, as long as Lu Xun returned to Chaisang with him, Lu Su didn't feel like he had left an excuse for Liu Cong to attack.

"Husband!" Seeing that the five warships had already surrounded themselves and others, Lu Xun promised Lu Su to go back, Liu Wen was anxious!

"Madam, why don't you go back with them first......"

"Nope! I'm going to follow you! "Liu Wen is really anxious, this nerd, this is not a big disaster, and she actually wants to separate ......

Lu Su didn't expect Lu Xun to be so straightforward, dealing with smart people is to save trouble, and there is no need to use any words, let alone force. It's okay like this, so as not to tear your face and everyone will not get along well!

"Governor, that's not right!" Lu Su was secretly glad that he had finally arrived in time, when Xu Sheng on the side came to him mysteriously.

"What's wrong?"

"These ships don't look like Jingzhou, but they look like ...... in our Danyang area in Jiangdong."

"What? Do you mean that the ship is carrying Bo Yan's clansmen and belongings? Lu Su took a closer look at the merchant ships in front of him, and there were indeed obvious signs that could distinguish them. Lu Su didn't think there was such a coincidence, there happened to be three ships passing by, and then Zhuge Liang happened to persuade Lu Xun, and then the three of them went to Jingzhou on a merchant ship!

If the ship is Lu Xun's clansman, then what's the use of leaving Lu Xun behind? It's hard to put him in prison and keep him under strict guard, otherwise, he will still go. As long as the family and clansmen arrive in Jingzhou, Lu Xun will have no worries, and it doesn't matter if he leaves early or late for a few days. Is it any wonder he agreed so readily? Lu Su hesitated at this time.

"Bo Yan, are these really merchant ships? You let everyone come out, General Xu, work hard for you, bring a few people up to have a look...... Mr. Zhuge should also come out to meet him......" Lu Su said very tactfully, and he didn't say a search, but if Xu Sheng is a merchant ship, just ask a few people, and you will know everything by listening to the accent!

"Get ready to fight! Speed up the boat! "As soon as I heard that Lu Su was going to send someone to board the ship to search, these brocade guards couldn't hold back any longer! Of course, Zhuge Jin in the cabin couldn't sit still anymore! It seems that Lu Su knows that he is on the ship, otherwise he would not insist on boarding the ship to search, how can this be good?

"Not good, Governor! They're going to run! Xu Sheng kept staring at the people standing on the periphery of the merchant ship, no matter how he looked at them, they didn't look like ordinary merchants, and when he saw them quickly take out their bows and crossbows, he understood! I'm afraid that Lu Xun is just responsible for delaying time.

"Bo Yan, what do you mean by this?" Seeing that the merchant ship that had been forced to stop moved again, Lu Su raised his voice and questioned Lu Xun.

Lu Xun spread his hands helplessly, in this case, he didn't know what to do? If it's just himself and his wife, it's a big deal to follow Lu Su back to Chaisang! But what about this Zhuge Jin? What about these dozens of family members and clansmen? This Lu Su insisted on boarding the ship and searching. These brocade guards who are in charge of answering must want to run!

"Bo Yan, if you make a mistake, there is no turning back!" Of course, Lu Su didn't want to use force against Lu Xun, otherwise he would completely offend people, even if he stayed in Jiangdong, it would be useless, and Lu Xun would definitely refuse to contribute to Jiangdong.

"Du Du, you just let Xun go, Xun is here to thank Du Du for his great kindness!" Lu Xun really couldn't think of any way except to make a fool of Lu Su.

"No, if you have anything to say back to Chaisang, you let them stop the boat immediately, otherwise I will be a celebrity to release arrows!"

The three merchant ships not only did not stop, but accelerated forward, which made Lu Su very angry! This is not what Lu Xun did, and that Zhuge Liang, who can really hide, has not come out to see each other until now.

Although there were Jinyi guards on the merchant ship who kept fighting back, Lu Su didn't take it to heart. What he is thinking about now is whether Lu Xun is determined to go to Jingzhou. Otherwise, five warships could easily surround them, and as long as they kept ramming, these merchant ships would not be able to move in a few strokes.

But Lu Su didn't let people do this, and Lu Su's generous nature was revealed at the critical moment. It's also that he admires Lu Xun too much, but he doesn't want a group of talents to die in the river! If I insist on boarding the ship again, I am afraid that this Lu Xun will not meet with him!

Or let someone else go? Lu Su was hesitating in his heart, or simply let Lu Xun go? Both sides have fired a salvo of crossbows, and most of the non-combatants have taken refuge in the cabin. Lu Su was thinking about whether to let Lu Xun go!

"Husband, let's go to the cabin first!" Seeing that the people on the warship had already moved, Liu Wen was worried that Lu Xun would be hit by a stray arrow, so she dragged Lu Xun to hide in the cabin.

"Madam, I can't go in, and as soon as I enter, these soldiers will be even more unscrupulous!" As he spoke, he raised his voice: 'Governor, why bother with each other? Lu Xun is already extremely ugly today, but he doesn't want to face Lu Su, let alone ask himself and involve Zhuge Jin and dozens of people.

"Bo Yan, you let them stop the boat first, it's a big deal that I won't send someone to board the ship. You guys stop first...... "Lu Su is also worried, so you shoot each other back and forth, what if you get up to Lu Xun?" But the more he worries about something, the more he comes. In the midst of a burst of exclamations, I saw Liu Wen hysterically shouting at the warship: "Stop! Stop it! Come on, come on! ”

Then blood oozed out from the surface of Lu Xun's robe! Seeing this scene, Lu Su hurriedly waved his hand to signal the crossbowmen to pause! And several merchant ships did not stop, but took the opportunity to distance themselves from the warships.

Lu Su sighed and muttered, "Are you really unwilling to serve my Jiangdong?" Are you and I fateful? Take care......" Xu Sheng next to him was stunned when he heard this, this governor clearly wanted to let Lu Xun go! However, Xu Sheng also knew the relationship between Lu Su and Lu Xun, and now that Lu Xun was injured, Lu Su was a kind and generous person, and he was afraid that he would not pursue Lu Xun anymore. Although he felt that there was something wrong, Xu Sheng still did not stop the merchant ship from going away after all, after all, Lu Xun had been injured, and if he was surrounded again, Lu Xun's life would really be in danger......

Just when Lu Su and Xu Sheng tacitly agreed to Lu Xun leaving, the accident happened again! When he saw clearly that it was indeed Lu Xun who had been hit by an arrow, Zhuge Jin rushed out of the cabin and shouted at Lu Su: "Lu Zijing, why do you have to be so ruthless in doing things?" ”

"Ziyu?" Lu Su still thought he was dazzled, why did it not Zhuge Liang who came out of the cabin, but Zhuge Jin? Mr. Zhuge ...... Lu Su thought of Mr. Zhuge in Lu Xun's housekeeper's mouth, and remembered that there were Zhu in the morning
