Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Grass and Trees Fly North (Part II)

Gongsun Xun was silent, because he understood what Wang Daoren meant almost immediately.

On the one hand, although this person was born in the Taiyuan Wang family, he has an ugly appearance, and he has been out of office since he was a teenager, so he can only learn some side ways, and then go to the rivers and lakes, which is undoubtedly a typical crooked and evil way that is not tolerated by the world.

On the other hand, although Wang Xian had nothing to ask for in rebellion, the Yellow Turban Army and Taiping Dao still gave him the value of survival and the dignity of being a human being.

And now, the Yellow Turban Army is about to be destroyed, and those who are willing to respect him, or even say that they need it, are gone. In such a situation, instead of lingering in the world where he can't tolerate himself, it is better to accompany these people of the Yellow Sky who need him on the road...... Just like a few years ago on the road from Handan to Yecheng.

As soon as he thought of this, Gongsun Xun's heart couldn't help but move slightly...... Where does he still not understand? In fact, when a group of people went all the way south from Handan a few years ago and met the displaced people on the way, this royal Taoist had already made today's choice - he parted ways with everyone and went north alone, choosing to integrate into the displaced people as a Taiping Daoist.

On that day, he didn't stop the other party, and today's matter was already doomed.

"Untie him." Gongsun Xun waved his hand, and then asked again. "But what's the explanation? Once you get acquainted, you will live up to your trust. ”

"Not really!" Wang Xian, who was untied, first respectfully saluted the deceased people such as Sun Xun, Lou Gui, Han Dang, and Guan Yu to show his gratitude, and then said calmly. "You are all people who do great things, a heresy, no concern, how can you entrust it? If you have to ask me, it is nothing more than that I hope you will try your best to eat and take care of your health, and that's it. ”

After that, he didn't look back, but directly held the yellow forehead on his head, then turned around and staggered north...... Compared with the figure in the north of Yecheng a few years ago, it is a lot more firm, and even a little rushed.

Although Wang Daoren has always been a little crazy, but his people are wasted to the point of harmlessness to humans and animals, and it is even more rare to have a little heart to do good, so seeing him die so calmly made Guan Yu, Han Dang, Lou Gui and other people who are used to seeing life and death a little shocked and unspeakable.

Gongsun Xun sat on the horse on the small slope, watching the other party disappear into the chaotic riverbank, but he closed his eyes again.

However, after a while, suddenly another recruit came to report, saying that there was a captured Yellow Turban Army marshal who claimed to be an old man, please see the prince, and he had been bound.

With the experience of the royal people, Gongsun Xun also became serious, but when he opened his eyes and looked at the bound people on the ground, he frowned for a while:

"Who are you, and why do you call me my old friend?"

As soon as these words came out, the trick that sent people over simply drew their swords, and they wanted to put an end to this daring man here.

"Xiaomin doesn't dare to call the old man of the general!" This mediocre-looking middle-aged Yellow Turban Army handsome quickly landed on his knees and fell to his knees with a thud, but he explained in embarrassment. "It's just that if it weren't for that, it would be really difficult to see the face of the general and ask about my brother's whereabouts......"

Gongsun Xun was still confused, but Han Dang immediately understood, and directly raised his hand to block the Lianzi Sutra with the scabbard.

When Gongsun Xun saw Han Dang's reaction, he also suddenly realized, but he was immediately furious, and actually got up directly and smashed the whole Mazha under the seat in the face of this person: "You also have the face to ask about your brother's whereabouts?!" If you hadn't been a thief, why would Jia Chao have to die?! ”

The middle-aged man on the ground, that is, Jia Chao's brother Jia Ping, was smashed hard, but he didn't realize it, he just grabbed the ground with his head, as if he was responding to Gongsun Xun's question, and seemed to mutter: "In this way, it was my brother who sent the flag alone to Guangzong City to die that day?" The villagers all said like, I still don't believe ......"

Jia Chao's matter is the most resentful and annoyed thing after Gongsun Xun left Dongjun, at this time he saw Jia Ping in front, and he was so cowardly, he didn't have the slightest demeanor of his younger brother, it was rare for his blood to surge, and he actually pulled out his knife directly...... However, seeing that Han Dang suddenly knelt beside Jia Ping, Gongsun Xun finally sneered and put away his knife.

"Stop muttering!" After putting away the knife, Gongsun Xun was still angry. "For your brother's sake, go home by yourself!"

Although he didn't know much about Jia Chao's affairs, seeing such a situation, where would he hesitate, so he immediately took action and untied Jia Ping.

Unexpectedly, after untying, this Jia Ping came back to his senses, first kowtowed on the spot, and then slowly shook his head: "Don't hide it from the general, Xiaomin has no home anymore, and it's not that I don't know that my brother has been following the general to do things......"

"If you know, why do you want to be a yellow scarf? Just run away that day and look for your brother! This time, it was Lou Gui who took a step forward in public, and Lou Zibo seemed to be afraid that this person who didn't know how to advance and retreat would completely anger his own prince and marquis, and when the time came, it would be even more difficult for Han Dang to do it, so he forced himself to come out.

"This gentleman." Jia Ping shook his head in panic. "My home is at the junction of Anping Julu, at that time in February, all of a sudden, all the people in the township, the county and the county made yellow scarves, if I don't go to be a yellow scarf, how can I keep my wife? She was more than seven months pregnant, and my previous children had all died, how could she dare to escape? Therefore, the Taiping Dao people in the township found me, and used the matter of giving Fu Shui to my mother and giving me a few children who died that day, as well as covering up the case for me, and forced me to make a yellow scarf, how dare I refuse? ”

Lou Gui sighed, but he turned around and peeked at Gongsun Xun, and then waved weakly: "Let's go quickly, go home and take your wife and children, go to Handan and Yecheng to find the Amway, report your brother's name, and let them leave your family to Liaodong...... Never come back. ”

Jia Ping kowtowed again, but he also sighed, making Lou Gui quite speechless.

However, he shook his head for a while, and then couldn't help but remind: "Mr. Zibo, this person said that he is homeless......"

Lou Gui glanced at Han Dang, who was still kneeling next to him, and couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp.

"On that day, the great sage and good teacher summoned the yellow scarves from all over the country to go to Guangzong, and our local Xiaoshuai from a big family didn't want to go, so he took my wife who was about to give birth, and forced me to be Xiaoshuai and lead people to Guangzong...... I had to go. Unexpectedly, his wife had a difficult birth on the way, and the child was born stillborn, and when she arrived in Guangzong, she missed the child too much, and died in a few days...... The reason why I was reluctant was that I wanted to stay up until the fact and then go to my brother, and if I could see him start a family, I would be content. "When Jia Ping said this, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and could only kowtow again and again." In fact, when the villagers said that the people who died in the city were my brothers, I guessed one or two, but I didn't dare to believe it, but today I know it, and I don't have to worry about it! ”

"Then let's go!" Gongsun Xun was so stunned when he heard this, he could only turn around with his knife, and then turned his back and urged. "Why bother talking about it here?"

"I still have to thank the general, as well as the kindness of this Han commander." Jia Ping still burst into tears and kowtowed. "If it weren't for the two of us, our family would have died seven or eight years ago, and I also found out in Guangzong that Ma's husband was also killed by the general...... It's not a loss! ”

At this point, the man once again knelt on the ground and bowed to the people in front of him, and then got up and walked north. Han Dang stood up and followed two steps north, but finally stopped in despair.

And seeing that the matter came to an end, Liu Bei, who was waiting at the bottom of the slope, also stepped forward: "Brother, I ...... the right talent."

"Is it an old man again?" Gongsun Xun asked without replying.

"Exactly." Liu Bei reluctantly laughed. "My brother has a role in Handan, and it is common for there to be more people here...... I have already asked clearly, this person claims to be Li Ming and Li Yizhi, the former deputy history of Zhao Guozuoche...... Words are conclusive, not necessarily false. ”

Gongsun Xun still turned his back to everyone, facing the south and sighed: "This is really an old man, Dong Gongren also told me that when the chaos broke out that day, he did go to vote for Zhang Jiao...... In fact, Zhang Jiao has been operating in Hebei for a long time, and when he did something that day, the surrounding counties and countries were empty, and it was Chu Yan, if I hadn't arrived in time, I was afraid that he would have been a thief. ”

"That'...... Would you like to see it? Hearing that his colleagues were so secretive, Liu Bei became more and more embarrassed.

"I don't know." Gongsun Xun still didn't look back. "If you are worried that you will be killed at will, please surrender in the name of the deceased, and it doesn't hurt to see you in the past, but you are afraid that you will also come to resign, then it will be embarrassing......"

Liu Bei bowed his head and was silent.

"However, when you think about it the other way around," Gongsun Xun continued to sneer. "If you ask to surrender, it doesn't matter if you see it or not, but if you resign, how can you not see it because of embarrassment?"

Liu Bei slowly bowed his head at the bottom of the slope, but he retreated directly, and after a moment, he directly led a person with a yellow scarf on his head...... Because he directly untied the rope, he was only allowed to stand far away at the bottom of the slope.

Gongsun Xun exhaled a long breath, let himself forget about Jia Chao for the time being, and then retracted his expression, then turned around, condescendingly, and looked at Li Ming expressionlessly:

"So, you're quitting too?"

Li Ming was born as a county official, and compared with Jia Ping's chatter before, his words and etiquette were naturally much more straightforward, and he immediately bowed his hands: "Yes! If someone else is in front of you, there is naturally no need to do this, but the prince and the marquis actually presided over the Zhao State that day, and he has more or less a bit of the truth of the monarch and the minister with me, and those years or two are also the happiest days for the subordinates, so they can't help but come to say goodbye. ”

"After all, you are a county official, why do you have to ......" Gongsun Xun wanted to speak and stopped, so he could only point to the north.

The place pointed out, the Zhanghe River is unfathomable, and there is a faint sound of wailing coming down the wind, but Gongsun Xun has some awareness in his heart, so he avoided the river early and deliberately chose such a distant place, so that he could see the situation clearly.

"On that day, do you still remember Wang Ranjunhou, the commander of the middle school?" Li Ming did not answer directly, but asked in turn.

"Naturally, I remember." Gongsun Xun laughed. "Wang Ran Wang Qiming, that day was the two of you who worked hard to guard the county temple full of barren grass, and I went in for the first time and planted a fall...... And because of this incident, the two of you are impressed, he is older, you are younger, right? Listening to Dong Gongren, he also voted for the yellow scarf that day? ”

"It's rare for a prince to have such a good memory."

"I don't want to remember it like that." Gongsun Xun sneered again. "Where is he?"

"Dead." Li Ming sighed slightly. "Just now, I fought with General Rengong with Wang Ran, I was a little timid, and deliberately fell behind to avoid the battle, but because he had always been grateful for the kindness of General Rengong, he charged ahead, so he was cut off by the white horse cavalry of the prince...... Speaking of which, he also killed himself, and the white horse of the monarch is not clear from others who don't know him? In short, Wang Jun was indeed dead, and I was on the run, and when I looked back, I could see it clearly. ”

"Do you blame me for that?" Gongsun Xun couldn't help but laugh again. "I actually met the old man with a sword."

"A prince shouldn't have such a thought!" Li Ming's face suddenly turned pale. "The two armies are fighting, you live and die, after victory or defeat, the death of the clan is to blame, the general can have a benevolent heart, but he can't blame himself! As for Brother Qiming's death...... It's me...... It was I who misjudged the situation that day and strongly persuaded him to defect to the general of Rengong with me, so that he faced a person like the prince on the battlefield, and then today I retreated from the battle and could not die with him! ”

"I have received your advice." Gongsun Xun immediately bowed his head. "I'll definitely keep it in mind."

"That's good! In this case, I hope that the prince will rule the world as soon as possible and rule the four seas, so that people like me and Brother Qiming will not fall into a similar fate in the future! After saying that, Li Ming was meticulous and bowed down.

When he raised his head and saw Gongsun Xun proudly accepting his salute and refusing to give up, he exhaled a long breath, and then also tidied up the yellow scarf on his head, and then walked north in the same way.

Zhangshui was hazy, and feeling the other party's advice, Gongsun Xun no longer deliberately avoided it, but he stood on the slope for a long time, but after all, no one came to say goodbye.

At noon, the sun was shining, the autumn wind was blowing, looking down from the slope, it was clear at a glance from the front to the place where Zhangshui was several miles away, Gongsun Xun saw with his own eyes, and the riverside was finally calm.

In other words, since February, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which has swept most of the world, has come to an end.

"Prince!" After pausing for a while, Chu Yan suddenly came to report in person. "There is smoke and dust in the south, and it seems that General Huangfu himself has led the footmen."

Gongsun Xun didn't think so, nodded slightly, then turned around and calmly instructed while heading south: "Pass the order, be sure to clean up the battlefield before the arrival of the Emperor Fu Gong, and collect all the pawns." And tell...... Tell the protector Sima Gongsun Yue that I have a deceased who died on the bank of the Zhanghe River, and since I am here, let him privately make a little ritual for me and make some sacrifices near the river. ”

Naturally, everyone didn't dare to slack off, and Guan Yu even directly asked for a gift, saying that he was going to accompany the escort Sima to sacrifice together...... Naturally, there is nothing to say.

However, Gongsun Xun walked down the slope and turned over on his horse, but he was suddenly stunned.

The generals around him didn't understand what he meant, so they had to stop.

"I have a whisper to listen to my uncle." Gongsun Xun then spoke.

The generals didn't dare to slack off, and they all retreated honestly, and as a group of righteous servants separated a vacant lot, the only outsider, Fu Nanrong, was squeezed hundreds of steps away, and Lou Gui couldn't help but ask: "Prince, please speak." ”

"There's no need to test Huangfu Song." Gongsun Xun's face was strange, and he seemed to be smiling. "He will not rebel, and your temptation is meaningless at this time."

"Why is that?" Lou Zibo glanced left and right, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"The Yellow Turban was in a hurry for less than a year, and Zhang Jiao used evil witchcraft to win people's hearts, but there are still so many people in the Turbid River, Qinghe, and Zhanghe who died for him and the Yellow Turban for various reasons...... How many years is Han Room Xuanhe? How many people do you think will die for it? Others don't know this truth, but Huangfu Yi, who is the best at grasping the situation, really doesn't know? ”

Lou Gui pursed his lips for a long time, but couldn't help but shake his head: "In this way, the Han family is going to stand tall?" ”

"Definitely!" Gongsun Xun, who knew what things would develop in the future, shook his head again and again, and then directly reined in his horse and went to Fu Xie, who was waiting anxiously. "I don't know exactly what happened, but it definitely won't be long...... Wouldn't the dead for the Yellow Turban also die in half a day? Let's wait and see if the people who died for the Han family died one after another...... I guess it's two or three years from now! ”

Lou Zibo thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and followed, while Han Dang and the white horse knights also set off again.

Five hundred white horses are from behind, deep in the soldiers, and the autumn wind is blowing a big river.

The poem says: I don't cultivate good fruits in my life, I only love to kill people and set fires.

Suddenly, the golden rope was opened, and the jade lock was torn off here.

Hey!

The riverside has resigned one after another, and today I know that I am me.

"In autumn, in September, Taizu and Zhang Jiaodibao fought in Xiaquyang and broke it. In the same month, Huangfu Song came to Guangzong, died in Fengjiao, and fought with Zhang Jiao's brother Liang in Guangzong, and also broke it. Shi Taizu reverted to the Quyang soldiers, and Liang was more frightened, so he sneaked into the night and galloped to Juluze. The two generals immediately sent troops, broke the city with foot soldiers, and broke the beam of the cavalry in the Zhanghe River. Chop beams. Jiaoxian has died of illness, dissected the coffin and killed the corpse, and passed on the head of the Beijing Division. Guangzong won the first 30,000 ranks, and 50,000 people died in the river. The world is peaceful. β€”The Dictionary. Yan. Pei Song's note
