Chapter 118: Who's Messenger from Shuzhong
Xiangyang City, guest house.
After lunch, Zhuge Liang was preparing to go out of the city to chase and kill Sima Yi.
According to the guidance of the tracking technique, Sima Yi had already left Xiangyang City around lunch.
It's just that Zhuge Liang walked out of the guest house, but he couldn't help but stop.
Because, the mark of tracking is gone.
The tracking mark marked on an ordinary person's body disappeared, what this meant, Zhuge Liang naturally understood.
Outside Xiangyang City, there must have been a monk who answered Sima Yi.
However, Zhuge Liang was a little puzzled again.
If someone else gave him Zhuge Liang a tracking technique, what would Zhuge Liang do after he was discovered?
Needless to say, it must have been a trap designed to kill the other party.
But now, the monk who responded to Sima Yi did not use Sima Yi as a bait to lure him Zhuge Liang out of the city to be ambushed.
This is very puzzling.
Just thinking about it, one of them came to the front of the guest house and said respectfully: "Mr. Kong Ming, my housewife asked the little one to come and spread the word, and Mr. will be able to see my father-in-law tomorrow." ”
Zhuge Liang knew this person, but he was the manager of the inner government of the Zhennan General's Mansion.
When I met Mrs. Cai yesterday, after entering the house, I was the guide of the steward.
Zhuge Liang bowed his head, indicating that he understood, turned around and went back to the guest house.
Mrs. Cai's pillow wind worked so quickly, and Zhuge Liang had to prepare for it. The set of rhetoric that fooled Mrs. Cai was not easy to use in front of Liu Jingzhou.
……
Shu County, Chengdu, is also singing and dancing.
Two generations of father and son, operating Sichuan and Shu for more than ten years, Liu Zhang has the capital to get drunk and dream of death.
As for Zhang Lu, who often raises troops to invade the border, let's wait for him to fight under the city of Shu County.
There are many passes in Shu, whether Zhang Lu can kill the city of Shu County, there are two to say.
In the afternoon, the autumn sun was melting, and two old horses carried the knights who were in the dust, followed behind many business travelers, and rushed into Chengdu.
"The country of Tianfu in Shu County, Wuhua Tianbao, Liu Zhang's possession of this place, is really a waste."
After entering the city, looking at the flow of people in the city, the ugly short boy on the horse sighed.
"Shi Yuan said cautiously, now we are on other people's territory!" The handsome uncle on the side admonished.
This is Pang Tong and Zhao Yun.
Because there are still nearly two months to go for the autumn harvest, it is enough for Uncle Liu Huang to use it to join the vertical and horizontal.
So, Zhuge Liang sent an envoy to Jingzhou, while Pang Tong, together with Zhao Yun, sent an envoy to Shu County. Because they had to pass through Zhang Lu's territory, and there were mountains and mountains along the road, there were only two people in the team of Pang Tong's envoys.
This road through the mountains and mountains, after passing Fucheng, but is a vast plain, this is the Chengdu small plain.
With this plain, Sichuan and Shu can be called the land of abundance.
The country of abundance, this has attracted Pang Tong's salivation.
After entering the city, he found a guest house, washed up and put on a set of clean and tidy clothes, and Pang Tong rushed to Yizhou Thorn Mansion with early pregnancy to pay homage to Liu Zhang, the lord of Yizhou.
It's still early today, so you can pay a visit.
Of course, whether Liu Zhang would see them or not, Pang Tong was not sure.
If Liu Zhang is the master, he will naturally meet them, after all, it is a cooperation to fight Zhang Lu, isn't it?
However, what he saw and heard along the way, Pang Tong knew that Liu Zhang was not only not a Ming master, but also a mediocre master.
……
Yizhou Thorn Mansion, at the gate of the mansion, the guards are quite strict.
Pang Tong took a few steps forward, and after paying respects, he handed over the famous thorn and asked the guards at the gate of the mansion to pass it on.
Fortunately, the guards did not embarrass them, and took the famous thorn and went into the mansion to pass it on.
In the house, Liu Zhang is enjoying singing and dancing.
Well, to be precise, Liu Zhang was watching the singing and dancing while painting on a piece of silk, and the painting was the graceful dancing of the dancers.
In this world, there will always be some strange princes, and even strange emperors.
It's normal for someone to like beautiful women; Some people like to play with mud, some like to be carpenters, and some like to paint...... Such strange princes or emperors, throughout thousands of years in China, are not a few.
For them, the country is just a resource to squander.
This is the case with Liu Zhang.
Zhang Lu raised troops to invade the border every year, and his Liu Zhang's command lost the battle every year. Liu Zhang, he didn't think about how to reorganize his armaments and defeat Zhang Lu, but he was drunk and dreamed of death all day long, watching singing and dancing, painting beautiful women, and living a happy life!
If it weren't for the difficult and dangerous roads in Shudi, I was afraid that when Zhang Lubing came to the city, Liu Zhang would still be drunk and dreaming of death, right?
Liu Zhang was putting the finishing touches on the beautiful woman in the painting, and the steward hurriedly came in, but he came to Zhang Song's side and whispered: "Mr. Yongnian, there are two guests from outside the mansion, saying that they are envoys under Uncle Liu Huang and want to meet the lord." ”
As he spoke, the steward handed the famous thorn in his hand to Zhang Song.
At the critical moment when his father-in-law was painting, the steward did not dare to go up and disturb it easily.
There are lessons to be learned from the past.
Last time, when the lord was painting, a steward hurriedly ran in and reported that Zhang Luxing's soldiers had invaded the territory, which caused the lord to drip a drop of ink on the painting, and a good painting was ruined.
The steward of the report received thirty canes, and went to the countryside to retire.
Since that time, if there is something important to report, the steward will report it to Zhang Song first.
Then, Zhang Song took a look at the gap and reported it to the lord.
……
Zhang Song took the famous thorn, but he was a little surprised.
Uncle Liu Huang, isn't it Liu Bei?
Zhang Song didn't know much about Liu Bei, and no one in Shuzhong knew much about him. The only thing I know is that after the fall of Lu Bu, Liu Bei followed Cao Cao to Xuchang, and then was posthumously regarded as the emperor's uncle.
You must know that when the news reached Shuzhong, even the lord Liu Zhang was envious and jealous for several days!
Again, the monarchs and ministers of Shuzhong also know that there is still such a person as Uncle Liu Huang today.
It's just that Uncle Liu Huang is no longer holding back Xuchang, and sent two envoys to Shuzhong, what do you mean?
(The news of Liu Bei's entry into the territory of Hanzhong has not yet been transmitted to Shu County at this time!) )
Zhang Song was puzzled, but also a little curious.
After half a cup of tea, Liu Zhang finally succeeded in finishing the light.
Stroking the five-inch short beard under his chin, Liu Zhang kept bowing his head, and was very satisfied with the painting this time.
Seeing the gap, Zhang Song leaned over and said, "Lord, Liu Bei sent a messenger to visit the lord, and the messenger is waiting outside the door." ”
Although Zhang Song was curious, he did not add fuel to the fire, nor did he persuade the lord to refuse to meet him.
Liu Zhang put down his pen and ink and said curiously: "Liu Bei sent a messenger here?" ”
In other words, if it weren't for being posthumously regarded as the emperor's uncle today, who in Shu would know which Liu Bei was?
Regarding the intention of Liu Bei's envoy, Liu Zhang was also a little curious.
In Liu Zhang's thoughts, wasn't Liu Bei staying in Xuchang at this time?
Liu Zhang waved his hand, repelled the singers and dancers, and then said to Zhang Song: "Send those two messengers up!" ”
