Chapter 892: Crossing the River
ps: There will be a chapter in a while
"The fog and rain are lewd, and the white glue is only. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
This is the imagination of the people of Chu on the land of Wuyue on the eastern coast, every May and June, the plum on the branches turns from green to yellow, the drizzle in the sky also begins to continue, densely falling, the mountains become foggy, the dense canopy is full of water droplets, Wuzhong, which was originally a river network, is turned into a Zeguo.
Jiangnan is damp, her husband died early, in this hot and humid environment, a rain, drinking unclean water, or catching a cold after indulgence, people are easy to get sick.
Hugh said that the poor people, even Wu Wangfucha, who was clothed and fed, was sick, and it was a long-term illness with a high fever and a long illness, which did not heal for more than a month.
His illness, Gou Jian has been locked in the stone room and no one cares, which makes Fan Liwen anxious, Fan Li can only ask Wu Dazai Bo Yao if he can let him go to visit Gou Jian.
As the second minister of Wu State, Bo Yao naturally can't mix with these ugly people who have lost the country, in the past three years, but if there is anything, he has arranged for his cronies to contact Fan Li and Wen Chong, and this time it is his son-in-law, Qu Ao, a native of the Jin Kingdom.
Qu Ao is already in his twenties, and he has been in Wu for ten years, and the minister who struggled in the burial pit is gone, replaced by a tall and strong man. After marrying Dazai's daughter and having a pair of children, he also grew a beard, and his words and deeds revealed a noble and arrogant temperament.
"Doctor Qu......" Fan Li saluted him respectfully and asked: "The widow has been imprisoned in the stone room by King Wu for more than a month, and he has not been released yet, I don't know what ......"
"Release? No way. Qu Ao waved his hand and said to Fan Li: "Xiangbang Jinyan, saying that since ancient times, the people who call the king of the world attack the enemy country, and if they defeat them, they will kill their monarchs, such as Shang Tang Vawei, Gu, Kunwu, Zhou Wen Wang Vachong, Kanli, so there is no worry about retaliation later, and finally the disaster of the descendants is exempted." Now that the king of Yue is unruly, since he is imprisoned in the stone chamber, he will definitely hold a grudge, it is better to kill him as soon as possible, otherwise, he will definitely become a worry for the Wu State. ”
"Ah......" After Wen Chong returned to China, the doctor who stayed behind was nervous and said, "So, what can I do?" ”
Fan Li was quite calm, and said again: "The widow has always been responsible in Wu State, being a cow and a horse, working hard and complaining, never daring to be disobedient, and never neglecting Dazai, and I hope that Dazai will save him." ”
Qu Ao looked left and right, and said: "Dazai is naturally helping you and others, he said in front of Xiangbang that in the past, Duke Huan of Qi defeated the state of Lu many times, but did not exterminate their society, but respectfully worshiped the temple of the Duke of Zhou, and regarded the state of Lu as a friend. Duke Wen of Jin captured Cao Gonggong, who had been rude to him, but spared his life. The princes thus praised their morality, which is recorded in the annals of history. Now, if the king really forgives Gou Jian, then the merit and fame are above the two Hou Bo, and they will be praised by the whole world......"
The husband who likes to be a false name should be able to listen to these words, Fan Li said: "What Dazai said is exactly what we think!" ”
Qu Ao said with a smile: "Therefore, King Wu promised that after he recovered from his illness, he would release Yue Jun from the stone room." ”
Saying that, Qu Ao turned sideways, made a gesture of invitation, and said to Fan Li: "Young uncle, it's not too early, just come with me." ”
……
Wucheng, the new capital that Wu Zixu supervised when King Wu was in Lu, is a low-lying water city in Zeguo, which has a southern style. Wu people drive boats, Jin people ride horses, there are eight gates of water and land in the city, a horizontal and a vertical has a wide river, from Fan Li they are located in the big city to Wu Palace and small city, also need to take a boat to enter from the water gate.
The night was deep, the drizzle was falling, the boat was running on the river, the front was the boatman shaking the oars, the back was the boatman holding the rudder, Qu Ao and Fan Li were hiding under the black peng, standing side by side.
Qu Ao looked outside, holding his short beard and didn't know what he was thinking, while Fan Li sorted out all the things that had happened in the past three years in his heart, and after a long silence, he finally spoke.
"Doctor Qu, is King Wu seriously ill?"
"High fever, vomiting and diarrhea, the whole person has lost weight, as we all know, the temper of the sick tiger is the worst, the young doctor refused to conquer the king before, it really annoyed him......"
Fan Li smiled bitterly: "In this way, the widow is still implicated by me?" ”
"Not really, it's just that I can't figure it out, Wu State, Southern Hegemon, Yue State, and Lost Small State. The virtuous minister chooses a good tree to live in, why does the doctor bother to guard Yue Jun, and would rather be a slave and maid with him than a doctor of Wu State? ”
"When Fan Li was in the Chu State, he was a madman that no one could look down on, but after coming to the Yue Kingdom, he was ranked as a doctor, and he was widowed in me, and he had the grace to carry him. The king regards his ministers as siblings, and the ministers regard him as his heart, how can he think of birds leaving the wood they inhabit and abandoning them? This is not what a taxi should do. ”
"Nationalist, young uncle, you are really a nationalist." Qu Ao's words couldn't be heard as sincere praise or implied sarcasm. "That's why you rejected Zhao's invitation?"
This matter is secret, and few people know about it, but just think about Qu Ao's identity, it is not surprising that he learned about it, Fan Li smiled: "It was Zhao Qing who fell in love by mistake...... The Zhao family has my master, and it is enough to dominate the Central Plains, and Fan Li and the mediocre people are also adding to the chaos, how can he say ......"
"Doctor Shao Bo said lightly, refusing Zhao Shangqing's invitation, you have missed a lot of things."
Qu Ao was quite touched by the scene today, and he appropriately stopped the topic. He is now the head of the Wu Guoqu family, and he has no contact with the Zhao family on the surface, and even his nephew is appointed as the general of Lu Guo, he can only forcibly press the joy, and can only smile happily when he is bathing alone. When he came south to the country of Wu, didn't he miss a lot of things? Sister, nephew, and the glory of meritorious service to the Zhao family......
However, Zhao Wuxian's summons did not come for a long time, and he could only continue to stick to this hot and humid south, running around for Bo Yao's greed, and secretly carrying out Zhao's orders.
At this juncture, the goal of both sides is the same: to secretly protect the Yue people and help Gou Jian return to China!
Qu Ao faintly felt that the Zhao family was on Wu Yue's side, in the next big game of chess, and he, the pawn who crossed the river, began to lurk when Wu Guo and the Zhao family were in love ten years ago, and slowly mixed into the nine palaces of the enemy general.
So on this rainy canopy boat, he whispered to Fan Li: "Originally, the king had planned to let Yue Jun return to the country, but Xiangbang came up with a ruthless trick, he entered the palace again, saying that the reason why the king was sick was because the ghost of the former king was dissatisfied with his lack of killing, and if he could kill him, he would definitely be cured of a serious illness!" ”
Fan Li pinched himself hard, Wu Zixu's trick was really a desperate plan, and even the ghost of King Wu Lu moved out.
Then the king hesitated again, and did not decide whether to kill or remain imprisoned, but only for a few days. Young Doctor, Yue Jun's current situation is very bad! This may be the last time you can see him, Dazai has nothing to do, if you have any way, use it quickly......"
Fan Li was silent again, the flat black boat was walking very slowly, but it was always walking, getting closer and closer to the brightly lit Wu Palace.
Seeing that Fan Li was silent, Qu Ao only thought that he had nothing to do, so he continued to persuade: "The Wu State is dangerous, the struggle between the DPRK and China is extremely cruel, if the Yue Jun is killed, Shao Bo, you are an old minister of the Yue Kingdom, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be reused here, it is better to go north to join the Zhao family, with your talents, you may be able to achieve a career......
"Doctor Qu." Fan Li interrupted him.
"King Wu is so seriously ill, why don't you think of a way to invite the 'Lingque' who practices medicine in the Song and Lu areas?"
Qu Ao was stunned for a moment, and then his anger surged, feeling that this Fan Li didn't know how to lift, and it would be great if he could go north obediently like Mo Xie's mother and daughter, but thinking of Zhao Wuxian's secret letter asking him to assist Fan Li and Wen Chong, and let King Yue return to the country, he pressed it down again, and patiently explained: "King Wu feels that these healers are from the Zhao family, and he is unwilling to let them prescribe medicine for himself, so he just asks Wu Guo's witch Zhu to pray for him, don't you say, it's really a little better these days......"
Fan Li nodded, took out the yarrow in his hand, and pinched it as he liked, two long and three short.
Qu Ao Daqi: "Young uncle, what is this doing. ”
"Since I can't ask people, I have to ask ghosts and gods." Fan Li smiled, he can't blame him for being superstitious, this is his specialty, he relies on this to eat in the Chu State, and he is more accurate than Confucius's "one hundred and seventy". The result he calculated was that King Wu would not die this time, and if Haotian did not plan to destroy the Yue Kingdom, then I hope it would be accurate.
King Wu is not a person who trusts others easily, but once he gains his trust and gratitude, everything is easy to say.
There was a sway, the bang sounded, the boat docked, Fan Li also had a plan in his heart, he bowed to Qu Ao for a long time: "Thank you Dr. Qu for today's matter, but Fan Li still has something to ask for." ”
Qu Ao sighed: "I can only do my best." ”
"I also hope that Dazai can speak one last time for the Yue Kingdom, and ask for a chance to meet the king of Wu for the widow. If this is the case, no matter what the outcome is, the coming country will thank the doctor, Dazai, and ...... with generous gifts."
He raised his head and looked resolute: "There is also the doctor, the real lord, Zhao Shangqing!" If the Zhao family can help the Yue country, the grace of the grass will not be forgotten! ”
