Chapter 200: Separation and Integration
"Cao Duwei ......"
Liu Zheng was moved in his heart, thought about it, and said in a deep voice: "If you go back this time, if you are free, you have to bother you to bring a message to your teacher, so I will say it...... The students understood, and asked the teacher to do what he could. If he couldn't do anything, he left a room for him at the home of a student in Rizhuo County...... Let him never be impulsive. If something is really difficult to decide, send someone to inform the student to discuss it together, and the student is not a useless person...... Hehe, after the incident of Wancheng, these words are a bit arrogant, Cao Duwei can hear it. Thank you very much. ”
"De Ran, you are laughing at yourself, but you are blind when you scold Zhongfu and Cao for resigning that day! Haha, joke and joke...... The master-apprentice relationship is deep, Cao knows it, and he must bring it to the truth. ”
Cao ** smiled brightly, and then bowed his hand to everyone, "It's not early, Cao Mou is on the road." ”
Looking at it with a little enthusiasm, Xun Di couldn't cry or laugh, "Gongda, you are here to entertain Deran, and I will send it off." Yun Chang, lend me a horse. ”
Watching Cao Cao and the others go away, Xun You smiled, "Regardless of his background and appearance, Cao Duwei is indeed open-minded and approachable. ”
"You can see so much in two or three sentences?"
Liu Zheng remembered Xun You's original experience, and his heart was a little uncomfortable, and then his eyes stared at the gate of Xun Mansion with a deep gaze.
"Six days ago, the war was peaceful, and it was also an opportunity to grab heavy money, but not to mention these bad things, as an official of the imperial court, in order to see you, I can put aside the affairs of the army and wait here for five days, this courtesy corporal is not approachable enough? You and I are just white, can he send medicine......"
The words stopped abruptly, seeing that Liu Zheng's expression was slightly condensed, Xun You also looked at the gate of Xun Mansion, and smiled slightly in a sloppy tone: "What? In the past, there was no clean mouth, and I always wanted to become a good friend with Xun, and I also wanted Xun to serve you as the master, but now I am so afraid that I don't even dare to enter this door? ”
"Want to get in...... It's okay to stay for a while. It's just that your uncle's attitude is also reminding Liu that the revenge of the love has ended, and he should go back to keep filial piety, and he can't delay for a moment...... In order to abide by filial piety, it has been detouring for so long, and if you enter the door to visit at this time, you will break the rules, but I am afraid that others will also have gossip. ”
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei glanced at each other when they heard this, and their faces were slightly strange.
Anyway, in the past, it was said to be going home, but it was also coming towards Yingchuan, and everyone actually didn't have any concept in their hearts, but they had already arrived here, so the next thing was really the way home, and at this moment they couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"I understand a lot."
Xun You stroked his itchy back and buttocks, and saw two little heads, one high and one low, coming out of the door, smiling and winking, "So my uncle didn't send someone to notify the family to greet him, which can be regarded as an excuse for you to stay...... The attitude is a little colder, don't be surprised. This matter ......"
"If you don't go in, I don't know how to see this place, and what to say when I see it...... Since Ci Minggong said that he changed his name, Liu still believed him...... Now, forget it...... It only adds to the embarrassment. ”
Liu Zheng sighed secretly, thinking that in the past, he was still desperate to find Xun Cai, even if he met him, but at this time, he had a mood similar to his hometown-this experience, in the end, made him confused, or rather, he saw through a lot and calmed down a lot.
He looked at the two little heads that shrunk after he looked over, on top was the face of a young girl with a young figure about sixteen or seventeen years old, and below was a cute little boy with five or six years of cute appearance and pigtails, and couldn't help but smile, "Isn't it your family?" Are the girls so old? ”
"Ahem...... That's the little concubine in the family. The little one is my family's son. ”
Xun You's expression was embarrassed, and he hurriedly changed the topic, "I won't introduce them to you, so as not to be counted out by my uncle and don't understand the rules." You're really not going in? ”
Liu Zheng glanced at Xun You, with a strange expression, and when he saw Xun You glaring at him, he shook his head with a smile, "No, I'm going back." After all, it's an outsider, and if the owner's face is not good, it's not comfortable to stay...... I didn't say that you Xun are narrow-minded, I know that I provoked it myself, they are avoiding suspicion, they are all pretending, and when I leave, maybe there will be a rush of chattering from the side...... Hehe, it's just that there will always be a villain heart in my heart. And after coming out for so long, I don't know what the situation is at home, and I want to go back as soon as possible. ”
Liu Zheng glanced at Li Chengwen Chou, Wen Chou said a location, and hurriedly rode out to gather the people who stayed outside the city, the proactive appearance was also quite comfortable in his eyes, Liu Zheng knew that Fang Cai's subtle actions had an effect, turned his head, and said with a wry smile: "Since Ci Ming Gong did not reveal the whereabouts of Nu Xun...... You and I are in trouble together, so help me pay attention...... If he is cut off one day...... Phew, someone got the first step, you notify me. ”
"Bride robbery? That's what Cao Mengde did. You two really smell like each other. ”
Xun You looked teasing, leaned over and whispered: "But if you are really like this, Xun also has the heart to take a look." Oh, speaking of which, today is the time when you talk the most and laugh the most...... Do you think my aunt will be watching somewhere? ”
"Don't make fun of me. Don't worry, I won't have a heart or lungs in the future. ”
Liu Zheng smiled slightly, walked to the carriage pulled by Gongsun Yue, opened the curtain and said with a smile: "Xiaoxue, say goodbye to your Uncle Gongda." I'm leaving. ”
Fang Xue poked her head out, waved her hand reluctantly with red eyes, Xun You smiled and comforted and instructed a few words, listening to the exclamation of her son from inside the mansion, she glared at the past, thought about it, and grabbed Liu Zhengdao: "You wait, Xun went to the house to find some books for Xiaoxue to take back." Well, remember...... It is not allowed to be disseminated. ”
The face was very solemn, Liu Zheng was also a little surprised, and then pulled Fang Xue to thank him.
……
On the other side, Cao Cao and Xun Di and his party talked and laughed and arrived outside the city gate, and when they had to stop their horses, Cao Cao supported Xiahoudun and his party, and smiled bitterly towards the city gate: "You should ...... coax Huang Zi"
"Huh?"
The dialect made Xun Di stunned.
"Well, it's 'what to do'...... Zhongfu, your father and Lu Zhonglang will not be kind. Join forces and put me together. Cao Mou just has the heart to make friends with De Ran and you, this thief-proof is like a thief, and no other clansmen can see it, Cao Mou is a cavalry captain, so he doesn't get in their eyes......"
Cao Cao complained, Xun Di was stunned, and said with a smile: "Cao Mengde, you don't pretend to be in front of Xun." You yourself said that whether it is you or Deran, it is not easy to meet my Xun family. Originally, you came alone, and you could only see a certain person Xun, this is still a favor I owe you, there is no such thing as a greeting, do you think it will be easy to see Gongda and send some medicine? ”
He shook his head, "There are so many rules, you can decide where to go." Even we can't help ourselves. Now that there is virtue in front of you, it will not make you lose face, you will be content. ”
Seeing Cao Cao laughing, Xun Di glanced at him, "Okay, okay, Cao Duwei is busy with affairs, for Xun to wait for five or six days, Xun will never say anything about you to General Lu Zhonglang, so that your reputation as a corporal of Lixian is confirmed, right?" ”
"Where does Cao need this kind of fictitious name!"
Cao Cao shook his head with a smile, then looked at Xi Zhicai in the distance, and said frankly: "However, I can't hide it, Zhicai is really capable, this time against the Yellow Turban, helped Cao Mou repeatedly break the enemy, and the credit is not small." Cao also tasted the sweetness, so he took this opportunity to come to Yingchuan to look for it...... Five or six days of hard work, but it was a nose of ash. When I saw Brother Deran today, I felt an indescribable sourness in my heart. ”
"Heh, the matter of whether this brother-in-law is not a brother-in-law has not been decided yet. Cao Duwei is such a big official, he actually thinks that he can't compete with Deran? ”
"His reputation is not good, Cao still has a eunuch father on his head, and his reputation is the same...... In terms of bravery, Cao is not as good as him, and eight people broke 50,000...... Cao's 8,000 people broke 50,000 and burned high incense. ”
Cao Cao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's Brother Deran's temperament now, which seems to be depressed, but he is also growing." What's more, Guangzong Wancheng has both had Brother Deran's scheme involved...... Well, there are people who are making a situation or the trend of the situation, and Brother Deran can appear in such things, and he naturally has the ability. The three lieutenant generals now owe favors again, and when his filial piety is over, it is amazing. ”
He paused and sighed: "Although they are all working for the Han, Cao is not a pure-hearted person, so he naturally wants to be better than others and be sought after...... Brother Ke Deran, it really made Cao feel ashamed. ”
"Knotting grass and rings to report, still not satisfied?"
Xun Di laughed.
Cao Cao also raised his head and laughed, "Haha, content!" Such a strong general, if he can work together and support each other in the future, he will have no regrets in life! ”
"Don't want to be earned? When you go back this time, you have to govern one side. There are a lot of fierce generals around him. Now Gongda is sharing the hardships with him, and he is also a person who can be regarded as a heart-to-heart friend. Since Xun helped you let Gongda receive the gift, as soon as this favor is owed, with your Cao Mengde's style of acting, it is absolutely no problem to convince Gongda, and he may not be able to convince Deran in the future...... Don't worry, my Xun family doesn't look at my background, but I have split up the family, after all, I am still Gongda's uncle, and my brother also blocked the knife for him, he will definitely listen to me. ”
Cao Cao glanced at Xun Di a few times, smiled and shook his head, "Zhongfu don't test Cao." Cao is not a greedy person...... It's good to be friends with you, and if he can become friends one day, it will be better to support each other. There is no need to have to be up and down, doing things for the big man is the real truth......"
He seemed to have thought of something, and his expression was slightly solemn, "Wancheng's incident, after all, I waited for the wrong one, and I can't make mistakes again and again." But Cao alone is not enough to change, we wait for flowers everywhere to support each other, so that the people can truly settle down. ”
Xun Di immediately sighed.
After all, both of them are people who have seen it, and although they will continue to do it according to military orders, they also have their own moral standards in their hearts.
The Wancheng incident, and even similar things in the entire battle between the Yellow Turban Thieves from beginning to end, are all symptomatic rather than root causes, and the root of the problem is naturally clear in their hearts.
The three Zhonglang will take into account the overall situation and self-destruct their reputation to set this long-term strategy for maintaining stability, and the two of them can see it, but for the consideration of the people, after all, the "benevolence of women" in the mouths of some others is not as iron-blooded as the older generation.
Feeling that the topic was a little heavier, Cao Cao changed his words and smiled, "In Cao's opinion, it is a foregone conclusion that Brother Deran will marry Sister Ling one day." If you are free, you have to be Brother Zhong Fu who doesn't dislike Cao's identity, and you can inform Cao of it by letter, so that Cao can give a thin gift. Haha, speaking of which, Brother Deran has repeatedly created extraordinary deeds in this fight against the Yellow Turban Thieves, which is the matter of blood and tears, and Cao is still quite surprised...... Such an extraordinary person, Cao naturally has the heart to make friends, even if he can take a hand, he is quite satisfied. ”
"You're killing multiple birds with one stone."
Xun Di rolled his eyes, "You are retreating this time, but not only Xun, but also all the people around Deran...... It's so high-sounding, it's really cheeky. ”
"The heart of a villain!"
Cao Cao rolled his eyes, Xun Di laughed loudly, and arched his hand, "Okay, Cao Duwei is good to go...... Gongda's identity is there, and his brother needs to recuperate, and now Brother Deran is silent, and the group of brothers around him are not people who can speak well, Xun is only afraid that if my brother Tongruo is on the shelf for a while, Xun's mansion will be messed up, so he will go back. ”
This explanation can be regarded as a heart-to-heart statement. Haha, Cao is satisfied, so he will leave! ”
The two saluted separately, Cao Cao also returned to the team, Cao Ren was young, and at this time he also talked about Liu Zheng and others, but he was quite surprised between his words, and he still didn't believe that Liu Zheng's seemingly weak body could do something like eight people breaking 50,000.
Soon after, a fast horse came coming towards him, and seeing that the big man looked over and slowly slowed down, Cao Cao glanced at it a few times with some doubts, and then reacted, and laughed: "But General Cheng Pucheng under the command of General Sun?" ”
"The word 'general' is really unacceptable. Cao Duwei was polite. ”
Cheng Pu stopped his horse and laughed, and after clasping his fists at everyone, he asked with a smile: "My lord heard that Cao Duwei came to see Liu Gongzi this time, have you ever seen it?" Cheng won't be late, right? ”
"It's not too late, Brother Deran is in Xun Mansion at this time."
Cao Cao said the route, and when he saw that Cheng Pu was in a hurry, he didn't keep it.
"Heh, it turns out that the hero is not Cao Duwei alone."
Xi Zhicai glanced at the back of Cheng Pu's fast horse, raised his leg and patted the horse's belly, and said with a smile.
"Haha, Zhicai said and laughed, where can Cao be considered a hero."
Cao Cao shook his head and recalled, "In the battle of Wancheng, Sun Wentai repeatedly took the lead, and he was able to retreat with minor injuries, and his ability is really extraordinary. can be valued by Zhu Zhonglang, and he has been promoted repeatedly, and it is definitely not because of the talents in the same state...... In the name of a hero, Sun Wentai is indeed not humiliated. ”
He sighed, and then frowned, "Speaking of which, the soldiers and horses recruited by Sun Wentai in Yangzhou and Xuzhou are really brave. Zhicai thought, does Cao want to ......"
Xi Zhicai smiled indifferently: "Zixiao go." A certain family has already inquired, it is people in Huaishui and Surabaya, and with Zixiao's character and ability, it will open their eyes. ”
"Sir! Jen is finally able to do things? ”
Cao Ren looked excited, "This position of the guard, a certain family has long wanted to do it!" Brother, you can't resist the gentleman's idea! It will make Mr. feel guilty and walk away! ”
"Haha, how could my Cao family have such an unobtrusive guy as you."
Cao Cao glanced at Xi Zhicai, and sighed in his heart, taking precautions and thinking about what people think...... That's the staff.
He nodded, "Just do what Zhicai says." However, you have to make a trip to Qian County first. Go to the house and call the son, and take care of it together, even if there is no result, you should also sharpen your temperament and exercise...... Well, let Zilian come to Luoyang to see me again. ”
After a pause, Cao Cao muttered, "That's right...... By the way, help me give a message to Miaocai, and ask him to take Meng Cai to Zhuo County. ”
"Meng Cai? If it is said that Miaocai went, I am not surprised, this Cheng Demou is afraid that it is also Sun Wentai's intention to meet Liu Gongzi......"
Xiahoudun looked puzzled, "But Meng Cai...... He's sick now, and it's not fitting to travel hard......"
"It's a serious illness that you have to find a way to survive. Typhoid fever, lung disease, blood and tears, all kinds of illnesses and visions are just trivial things for Brother Deran, so you have to try it, right? Maybe he understands, but he doesn't understand, maybe it's related to the art of Kanyu...... Moreover, I asked General Lu Zhonglang before, that Jian Xianhe stayed in Wancheng and had made friends with Zhang Zhongjing's family, and Zhang Zhongjing should have dragged his family to Zhuo County. That Zhang Zhongjing was much more skilled than those witch doctors who accompanied the army. Now that Meng Cai's little girl has just landed, if he has three longs and two shorts, Miaocai's child will just be born...... You also know that the two of them are not having a good time now, and according to Miaocai's temperament, they may give up their children......"
Cao Cao frowned, and then said in a deep voice: "Thinking about it like this, Yuzhou still doesn't stay." All of you family members should go to Zhuo County. In the past two years, natural disasters and man-made disasters in Yuzhou have not stopped, and it is not as peaceful as Youzhou. There is Brother Deran there, and there is also a care...... Besides, after all, my father has done a lot of things wrong, it's hard to say that he won't be implicated this time, and he just bought an official, if something happens in Yuzhou, he really can't take care of it......"
"Youzhou is still Xianbei, Wuhuan has repeatedly invaded and rebelled......"
Cao Ren muttered, and Xi Zhicai smiled, "A certain family thinks that they will let the clan relatives consider it as appropriate, and it all depends on their personal wishes." However, Yuzhou will not be peaceful...... Although the Yellow Turban Disaster has been resolved, the grain and grass crisis in Yuzhou is not light, and it is difficult to say that no one will rebel again, and the disaster is not small...... And in the area of Youzhou, no matter other places, the news that a certain family has inquired about, Liu Gongzi has a field in Zhuoxian, and he can still harvest some after a few months of hard work, not to mention that his caravan has expanded to Wancheng, not to mention funding others and helping Cao Duwei's relatives, there is absolutely no problem. ”
"It's still thoughtful. Originally, Cao could actually fund you, but my father's temperament was ...... Alas, don't mention him, let's go. It has been delayed for several days, and it is not easy to catch up with the army. ”
With a flick of the reins, Cao Cao took the lead.
……
At the same time, not long after Xun Di, who had just sent off to prepare dry food, Liu Zheng looked at Cheng Pu in front of him in a little stunned, and learned that the other party wanted to go to Zhuo County together, and said a little overwhelmed: "I never thought that the two ladies who were rescued in the county government in the past turned out to be the relatives of Brother Demou...... By the way, those two horses ......."
He looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but he felt a little strange in his heart, he didn't expect to miss Cheng Pu like this.
"Thrown in the country...... I don't know if anyone sent it back. I haven't been riding long. ”
Zhang Fei glanced at Qingyun, who was already quite a god now, and his expression was a little envious. Then I remembered the state of mind when I went out in a hurry, and glanced at Guan Yu, but I could also feel the complex emotions in each other's eyes - in just five months, this experience really made people feel that it had been a long time for several years, which was quite embarrassing.
"If Brother Yide needs it, when he can return to Zhuo County, Cheng will ask Brother Sun for a few more horses."
Cheng Pu smiled, in this kind of scene, he naturally didn't ask Liu Zheng about his brother's suspicions, and then chatted with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei a few more words, talking about Sun Jian's matter, guided by Guan Yu, and slowly integrated into the small group.
It didn't take long for Xun You to command a group of servants to go out, and in Liu Zheng's shocked gaze, he moved two large boxes of bamboo slips into the carriage, and beckoned the servants to hand over the dry food to Li Cheng to take care of, and after seeing Cheng Pu, he also smiled and greeted a few words, and then pulled Liu Zheng aside, and said with a straight face: "Uncle Zhongfu won't come to see you if he is stopped." In addition, I asked Humble Jing that Aunt Nuxun was not in Yingchuan, and I was afraid that only Grandfather Ciming knew where she went. However, I heard that ...... Yin Yu Yin Zijin came to look for her, and then went north...... I don't know if there is any connection with Aunt Xun...... Oh, Aunt Xun came back from Nanyang, thanks to Yin Ziyu's help. ”
Seeing Liu Zheng's frowns, Xun You said in a deep voice: "Deran, Yin Ziyu is also a scholar after all. ”
Liu Zheng smiled noncommittally: "I understand, scholars will not have such outrageous deeds as Liu...... What's more, he may be for other things, it is the heart of Liu's villain. ”
"I believe you."
Xun You smiled with some relief, then patted Liu Zheng on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Deran, this experience is not a bad thing for you and me. Xun said that he believed you, which was an encouragement and a warning. Lu Zhonglang said that he said that he made you not change your original intention, but he may not have high hopes for you, hoping that you would take care of him and think twice. This time we separated, and we will see each other again in three years. For you and me, we should each settle down for this experience. On another day, if Xun comes to see you, I hope you are really trustworthy...... At least it won't let down Aunt Xun's family. ”
"Liu understands."
Liu Zhengrong saluted, "Gongda, Liu has a sentence hidden in his heart for a long time...... No matter what his day is, Liu still wants to thank you. Thank you very much for this experience. ”
Xun You returned the salute, and then said with a smile: "Let's go...... By the way, Zhu Zhonglang will not take Xiaoxue's matter to heart. Remember to take care of Xiaoxue, those bamboo slips, don't spread them, just show them to you, Xiaoxue and Brother Li Cheng's son. ”
"Got it, got it. It's really noisy...... You call me uncle the other day, aren't you afraid that I will turn back and retaliate? ”
"Damn...... Don't let me remember the problems I contracted in the army in Yingchuan! ”
"Haha......"
Everyone laughed and said goodbye, and finally parted ways outside the city.
When Xun You returned to the house, he saw that the main hall of the originally deserted mansion was full of people, each chattering about something, and when he came back, he put Xun Di aside and asked about Liu Zheng.
He replied one by one lightly, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and really let Deran's bird guess correctly......
Then find a vacancy, pull Ji'er back to the room, listen to Ji'er curiously inquire about the situation of Liu Zheng and others and his own experience, Xun You touched his son's little face a little dotingly, looked at the blue sky in the north and smiled, opened his mouth and chattered, thinking about some experience, not only Deran, but himself, in the end, he has also grown.
