Chapter 8 Divination for Lusu

An update is coming

I still know a little bit about Lu Su. Lu Su, the word respects, Linhuai Dongcheng is now a native of Dingyuan County, Anhui Province. He was born in the fifth year of Jianning in the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, in 172 AD, because it is now 208 AD, which means that he should be about 37 years old at this time.

Lu Su is burly, has a bold personality, likes to read, and is good at riding and shooting. The most famous thing about him before the Battle of Chibi was that when Zhou Yu had just raised troops and asked him for help in lack of food, he casually pointed to one warehouse and gave it to Zhou Yu when he had two warehouses of grain, which shows his heroic temperament of fighting righteousness and squandering wealth and discerning people.

In the past, Zhuge Liang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms on TV always said that Lu Su was an honest man, and Lu Su was always bullied by Kong Ming with a simple and cute look, so that he could only smile bitterly and look helpless.

I don't know what Lu Su looks like in reality, and when Lu Su comes in to meet Liu Bei, I secretly sigh why the top strategists in ancient times looked tall and mighty.

However, Lu Su only brought a sword and was dressed in civilian clothes, and as soon as he came in, he saluted Liu Bei, calling him "Uncle Huang", and he did look friendly and easy to get along with.

The two sides answer each other, without a detailed table. Let's say that after Kong Ming persuaded Liu Bei to let him cross the river with Lu Su, he ordered me to instruct the servants to pack for him. When everything was cleaned up, I resigned Liu Bei with Kong Ming and boarded a boat to Chaisang County.

The two discussed in the boat, and Lu Su said to Kong Ming: "Sir, when you see General Sun, you must not tell the truth that Cao Cao has many generals. Kong Ming replied: "There is no need to be respectful, Liang has his own words of reply." ”

I saw Kong Ming's unfathomable look, and his vague reply made Lu Su fidget. thought to himself: "As the so-called concern is chaos, although this Lu Su is a masterpiece, some of them attach too much importance to the success of the Sun Liu Alliance." It was not until Liu Bei did not give an inch of land to Dongwu according to Jingzhou in the future, and the two sides were fiercely opposed, that his extraordinary means were revealed. ”

When the boat arrived, Lu Su asked Kong Ming to rest in the pavilion for a while, first to see Sun Quan, and I commanded the people to settle the things that Kong Ming brought, and then began to think about when to make a fuss about Lu Su and what good things to get.

The next day, just after dawn, Kong Ming was invited by Lu Su to see Sun Quan, Kong Ming didn't say to take me, and I didn't want to go with him, I couldn't see the big scene of him about to fight the Confucianism, and when the two came back together, I saw Lu Su's face full of joy, thinking that Zhuge Liang had already said that Sun Quan had moved, and the Sun-Liu alliance had basically become.

Now it's time for Zhou Yu to come back to strengthen Sun Quan's confidence. Although Zhou Yu will lie to Kong Ming that he wants to surrender, as long as Zhuge Liang takes out Cao Cao's killer weapon to get Er Qiao, he is not afraid that Zhou Yu will not give in.

If you want to talk about Jiangdong Erqiao, that is, even Cao Cao covets the beauty, and I don't know when I will be able to meet each other, but they have become wives early, or I have to try my best to kiss Fangze.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Yu arrived, Zhuge Liang, who went to see him with Lu Su, couldn't help but be happy when he came back. I knew that Kong Ming's plan had succeeded, and soon the news spread throughout the city that Eastern Wu had formed an alliance with Liu Bei and was going to war with Cao's army.

During this period of time, compared with the sharp-toothed Zhuge Liang, I could only be regarded as a soy sauce maker at best, and with Kong Ming and Gong Jin, two genius military advisors, fighting there, there was no room for me to mix at all.

However, as soon as the battle began, the Dongwu side began to actively prepare, and under the background of Zhou Yu and Kong Ming fighting in secret, I actually really got to Lu Su, who is an "honest man".

In fact, I can't be blamed for this, after Zhou Yu deceived Jiang Gan, he sent Lu Su to find out if Kong Ming knew that Kong Ming knew it, Kong Ming told him not to tell the truth in front of Zhou Yu, otherwise it would cause big trouble, but he still told Zhou Yu the truth about it.

So it led to the disaster of Zhou Yu asking Kong Ming to make 100,000 arrows in ten days. Lu Su didn't hurt Kong Ming enough, and he dared to take the order to come to Kong Ming to find out the truth. A few days before Kong Ming made the military order, I was particularly concerned about Kong Ming's actions, and sure enough, since he arrived in Soochow, he went to the riverside every day to observe the changes in terrain and climate, which means that he really didn't dare to agree to Zhou Yu's arrow-making.

When Lu Su came to pretend to be a good person, he mentioned to Lu Su about borrowing a boat, Lu Su didn't understand what he meant, but he really didn't leak any more secrets, and privately allocated the boat and the sergeant to Kong Ming for dispatch.

I also knew that Kong Ming would outwit Cao Jian on the last night of the deadline, but he had the intention of blackmailing Lu Su, so on the first day of the deadline for making arrows, he went to Lu Su's Mansion to meet Lu Su while Kong Ming had nothing to do to find me.

Although I don't know where Lu Su lives now, he is also a famous person in Jiangdong, and I asked passers-by all the way, but I quickly found the door.

At first, the doorman who guarded the door saw that I was a small person and stopped me from letting me in, and when I lied that I was Zhuge Liang's scholar and had a letter from Kong Ming to deliver to Lu Su, the doorman only asked me to take out the letter and convey it to him.

I had no choice but to insist that this letter was so important that it had to be conveyed to my face, so the doorman had no choice but to go in and report it and then let the housekeeper lead me into the house. Although Lusu's mansion is not very large, it can also be said that everything is in order and orderly.

Lu Su met me in the living room, and when he saw me coming in, he waved the housekeeper down, and asked me why Kong Ming asked me to deliver the letter when he didn't come out of his own time.

I sat down solemnly first, and said to him: "The letter is not busy, but my husband asked me to ask my lord, in case he can't get together 100,000 arrows after three days, and Zhou Dudu asks for his head, what should be the alliance between the Sun and Liu families?" ”

When Lu Su heard me say this, he was stunned. I thought it was inconvenient for Kong Ming to come forward, so I asked one of my children to come to him to intercede. He said to me with a wry smile: "Although the cause of this matter is me, Kong Ming found an excuse to prevaricate in front of the Metropolitan Governor that day, but he had to save face and say that it could be done in three days." I also signed a military order, but at this time, it was difficult for me, what can I do! ”

When he said this, he was shocked, and said to me as if he remembered something: "Your husband asked me to borrow a boat, should it be that if you can't do it, you will escape back to Jiangxia!" ”

Lu Su's thought made me laugh dumbly, and he was even more puzzled by my laughter, but I deliberately said to him in a very disdainful tone: "My lord, where did you hear that a man escaped and wanted to borrow twenty boats. Besides, it's just 100,000 arrows! It's just a trivial matter, and I can't make a mistake for my husband to run away! ”

"That? What did Kong Ming mean by calling you? Lu Su was even more confused by what I said, and he said to me in a speculative tone: "Could it be that Uncle Liu Huang will send 100,000 arrows to solve Kong Ming's problem!" ”

In my opinion, Lu Su's idea is the most feasible of normal methods, but I was shocked when I heard Lu Su say this. It suddenly occurred to me that Zhou Yu asked Kong Ming to make 100,000 arrows within ten days, which was probably not a killing game in itself.

Even Lu Su understood the importance of the Sun-Liu Alliance, so how could Zhou Yu not know?

Although Lu Su privately transferred 20 boats and 600 sergeants to Kong Ming, Zhou Yu was the governor of the entire army in Jiangdong. Besides, he was always paying attention to Zhuge Liang's words and deeds, how could he not know about Lu Su's borrowing of a boat to Kong Ming for such a long period of three days?

Maybe Zhou Yu didn't know about Lu Su's borrowing of a boat to Zhuge Liang, but he also thought that Kong Ming was using this boat to get arrows from Jiangxia like Lu Su. In this way, he not only achieved the goal of ridiculing Kong Ming's opportunism, but also increased the military strength of Eastern Wu while weakening Liu Bei's military strength. What a Zhou Gongjin! This trick of pretending to be deaf and dumb is well done!

Thinking of this, I was a little angry, although this arrow was finally made by Cao Cao, the wronged man, but Yin Lusu and something I suddenly thought about at this time.

So I deliberately showed a panicked look, and Lu Su must have thought that he had guessed the joint of Kong Ming's arrow.

I didn't say anything, but just sighed: "These 100,000 arrows are considered to have been collected by the governor of Zhou, Jiangdong is a vast land, and this little military capital will not be taken into account." But that's a lot of money for me! ”

I deliberately said it to me instead of my father-in-law, thinking that it would be a foreshadowing for the future. Lu Su didn't pay attention to the difference, but thought that he had guessed and spread his hands to me helplessly: "This is also your husband's own take, and I can't blame me." ”

After I sighed, I said to Lu Su with this emotion: "Song'er is young, so she can't share the worries of my husband. But since I have come, I am willing to send you a farewell and then go away, thinking of the care I have taken for my husband during this time. ”

"Give me a fortune?" Lu Su was stunned when he heard this, and he looked me up and down carefully, as if he knew me for the first time. He asked me in disbelief, "Are you already proficient in divination at a young age?" ”

I tried my best to learn from my husband's bearing, and said to Lu Su calmly: "Do you know that my husband is not yet old, but he already knows astronomy, geography, marching formation, Qimen Dunjia, omniscient and omniscient?" ”

Lu Su nodded and said, "I have heard of it for a long time, but I have not been fortunate enough to receive it." ”

I continued: "I want to learn this kind of knowledge to my husband, but it has only been more than ten years. Although Song'er is dull, she has only studied divination for several years, although she cannot say that she knows the creation of heaven and earth, but she has also reached the realm of seeing people and knowing the prophet! ”

Lu Su was shocked when he heard this, and even stood up from his seat and asked in surprise, "Could it be a fraud?" ”

I smiled and shook my head, and said to him, "What is the matter with the public, let me try to do it, if I don't win, I won't take a penny!" "I said it with a stir, and I actually brought the routine of a fortune teller.

"Then you can tell me how the battle between our army and Cao's army will end?" Lu Su saw that I was full of confidence and worried about the current battle situation, so he came to ask me this.

I didn't want to use this to get anything from Lu Su, I smiled and shook my head again and said, "I have already decided on this, and within half a year, the Cao army will be defeated." ”

I saw Lu Su's face beaming when I heard this, and I knew that no matter whether he believed me or not, people like to hear things that are beneficial to them. Then he continued: "I won't take you any money for this, if you have any divination yourself, I will divinate for you now!" ”

To say that in the era of the Three Kingdoms, most people still believed in divination and face-to-face, I saw Lu Su say to me that although he was happy about the defeat of Cao's army, he seemed to believe it or not, so he said to him: "If Cao's army is defeated in less than half a year, you may say that I am in my own side, and I will say that the place will be defeated, and I will definitely not be able to show my means." Speaking of this, I also stood up and stretched out my right hand to Lu Su: "No need to be complicated, you only need to give me seven copper coins, and I can send you a good word!" ”

Although Lu Su was still skeptical, he also took out a string of copper coins and counted seven for me. When I got the coins, I sat down again, and placed each of the seven coins on the desk, and with my thumb and forefinger, I made them spin around one by one. Although this copper coin is not as good as the modern one-dollar coin, it can hold on for a while.

Lu Su stood in front of me and watched me do these strange actions, and saw that I had gathered all the copper coins that had been frozen together flatly, and memorized a short passage of text from a high school English textbook with my right hand. He was completely stunned when he heard it, as if he was listening to a book from heaven.

I smiled at him, took out my palm to reveal the seven copper coins underneath, and told him, "It's okay." ”
