Chapter 41: Shangguan Yin
"Jingzhi, it's really you!" Liu Yin laughed, jumped off the horse to support Guan Yi's arms, helped him up, looked at him carefully for a long time, and said with a smile: "Well, yes, it's much stronger, there are successors to the Guan family, and there are successors!" ”
"Yes! You and I are old, and we will be the world of young generations in the future. When it comes to the Guan family, Liao Hua has infinite emotion in his heart, since the twenty-fourth winter of Jian'an Guan Gong was killed, it has been forty-four years now, during this time, the Guan family has withered, no longer the glory of the year, every time I think of it, my heart is full of regret. Now, Guan Jiafu has a talent born out of nowhere, and he is the happiest.
"The two old generals are old and strong, their ambition is not reduced, the younger generation is young and shallow, and I hope that the old general will give more guidance in the future!" Guan Yi smiled, beckoned Hu and Shi Feng to come forward to meet Liu Yin. Liu Yinshi saw that Ehu was skilled in martial arts, and he was born with black hair, and his appearance was different from ordinary people, so he couldn't help but praise it again.
Subsequently, Zhuge Shang also came forward to give Liu Yin a salute, although he was from a prominent background, but the Liu family is a prominent family in Shu, and Liu Yin himself has enjoyed decades of fame, he has known since he was a child, and he does not dare to have the slightest support in front of Liu Yin.
Zhuge Zhan has two sons under his knees, the eldest son Zhuge Shang, the second son Zhuge Jing, both have a talent since childhood, Liu Yin naturally knows Zhuge Shang, I have long heard that Zhuge Shang is a young hero, and he is good at martial arts, but he has never seen it with his own eyes.
Guan Yi was happy when he saw Liao Hua and Liu Yin, and immediately ordered everyone to return to the city with him. When I arrived at the post house, I saw that Jiang Wei, Dong Ju, Ning Sui and other old and young generals were already waiting at the head of the door.
"The old decay is late, how dare General Lao greet him personally?" Liu Yin was surprised when he saw Jiang Wei so polite, and hurriedly jumped off the horse to salute. Although he is more than ten years older than Jiang Wei and is a member of the Chengdu family, Jiang Wei is a general and holds military power, and he is the respect of the Han Dynasty and the pillar country, and he is really no better than others, so how dare he put up a fight in front of Jiang Wei?
Jiang Wei laughed, stepped forward to hold Liu Yin's hands, and said: "The old general is facing the enemy, holding the Golden Siege for three months, shocking the enemy's courage, so that the Wei army does not dare to underestimate the characters in my Shu, Wei Shen is convinced." There are two more days to be the New Year's Day, the generals of the Vying Conference, celebrate the festival together, how can they be entangled in military affairs, can not go to greet in person, the old general is fortunate not to be surprised! ”
When Guan Yi heard this, he realized that Liao Hua left Nanzheng overnight that night to welcome Liu Yin. I couldn't help but secretly speak, although Jiang Wei did not personally go to Jinjinwei to greet him, but he sent Liao Hua to go, you must know that Liao Hua is the general of the right chariot cavalry, and his status is only slightly lower than that of the three princes, and in contrast, Liu Yin's Fenwei General is just a name among the miscellaneous generals in the final analysis, Liao Hua personally ran hundreds of miles of mountain roads to greet him, which can be said to have given Liu Yin enough face, and it can also be seen that Jiang Wei respects Liu Yin.
Thinking about it in his heart, Liu Yin had already greeted Dong Ju and the others separately. At this moment, a personal guard hurriedly came, walked straight to Jiang Wei and said, "General Qiyu, someone in Chengdu has come to report the funeral......
"Where are the people?" Jiang Wei's heart jumped, and a hint of ominous feeling rose faintly in his heart.
"General......" With a mournful roar, a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old wearing filial piety clothes broke in, threw himself at Jiang Wei's feet, and cried: "General, my ancestor died a few days ago!" ”
Jiang Wei helped the young man up, his face suddenly changed greatly, he couldn't help but stumble under his feet, almost falling, and the guards around him hurriedly stepped forward to hold him. After stabilizing his figure, Jiang Wei had tears in his eyes and cried: "Poor heaven is not longevity, and the court has lost another pillar!" ”
At this time, Guan Yi, Liao Hua and others also saw clearly that the person who came was Shangguan Yin, the grandson of Shangguan Yin, the general of the Fu Army, no wonder Jiang Wei was so sad.
Shangguan 雝*, the word Zixiu, the same county as Jiang Wei, Zhuge Wuhou entered Shu with Jiang Wei during the Northern Expedition, his talent has done a good job, he is both civil and military, quite courageous, deeply loved by Zhuge Wuhou, to Shu Houguan to the Zhongdian Army, and the general of the captivity. After Jiang Wei took charge of the army, he relied on him a lot, and the two were like brothers. In the eighteenth year of Yanxi, he was crowned as the general of the Fujun army because of his merits with Jiang Wei in Taoxi, and his position was higher than that of the general of the Zhenjun and the general of the auxiliary country, and slightly lower than that of General Wei.
Shangguan Yu passed on several generations, and in his generation, in addition to his two daughters, he did not give birth to a son until he was middle-aged, named Shangguan Jing, and when he became an adult, the court used it as a captain of Fengche and served in the palace. Later, Shangguan Jing only gave birth to one son, named Shangguan Yin, whose name is Boyuan, and he is eighteen years old. Guan Yi has known him since he was a child, but over the years, he has been hiding in the mountains of Zitong to train and has mostly lost contact with the outside world, so he doesn't know much about Shangguan Yin's recent situation.
Shangguan Yu has always been indifferent and open-minded, Liu Yin and others have also been friends with him, at this time to learn that he died of illness, his heart is also infinitely sad, but seeing Jiang Wei grief, for fear that he will hurt his body, he comforted: "People can't be resurrected after death, general, please mourn!" ”
Jiang Wei's eyes were red, and he paused and said: "When I planted wheat in the middle of the river last year, Shangguan Zixiu resigned and went home due to illness. My heart hurts! ”
"General......" Jiang Wei sighed, which made Shangguan Yin even more sad, an old man and a young man hugged their heads and cried, crying for a while The sky was dark, the sun and the moon were discolored, Liao Hua and Liu Yin and others saw Jiang Wei so affectionate, thinking that they are now over the age of old, and the days are numbered, maybe one day after lying down, they will never wake up again, and for a while, their faces are also sad, and they secretly sigh.
After a long time, Jiang Wei stopped his grief, grabbed Shangguan Yin, and said, "Have you ever met you with the news of your grandfather's death?" ”
Shangguan Yin collected tears and said: "After the death of my ancestor, my father reported to His Majesty on the same day, and Your Majesty knew that the general had a deep friendship with my ancestor, so he specially ordered me to come to report the funeral and stay in the army to serve." ”
"That's great!" Jiang Wei nodded, although Shangguan Yu stepped down, but his predecessor was the general of the Fu Army, and his influence in the court and the army was not trivial, and after his death, he naturally had to inform the court first, otherwise he was afraid that it would cause some unnecessary trouble. And after his death, Shangguan Jingding was worried about filial piety, but he was not afraid of breaking the rules, and thought about it: "Your Majesty has a holy oracle, so it is naturally better." You have been reading military books since you were a child, and you are skilled in bows and horses, but you are still young and have little qualifications, so you have been wronged to be a personal guard under my account, what do you think? ”
Liao Hua nodded secretly, the official position of a military candidate is really not big, and there are only 200 people under his jurisdiction, but the key is that Shangguan Yin is Jiang Wei's personal guard, and its significance is not ordinary. In other words, if Jiang Wei takes Shangguan Yin as his confidant, after only some time of training, Shangguan Yin will be able to rise step by step, such an opportunity can be said to be a great thing for many people, and Shangguan Yin will definitely accept it happily.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Yin shook his head, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for the general's kindness!" When his ancestor was dying, he instructed that the country was in an eventful season, and a good man should serve the battlefield and poke out a fame with a knife and a gun. The last general is brave and asks the general to allow the last general to serve at the border, one to contribute to the country, and the other to comfort the soul of the ancestors in the sky! ”
Jiang Weidao: "If the husband has ambition, why can't he make a meritorious name?" Send you to the border, how do you let me explain to your grandfather? ”
"This is the meaning of the ancestors, please fulfill the general!" Shangguan Yin saw that Jiang Wei refused, and his heart was anxious, so he lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground, seemingly not giving up until he reached his goal.
"Boyuan, why are you doing this?" Jiang Wei saw that he was resolute, and he was very similar to Shangguan Yu in his gestures, and he couldn't help but feel sad again.
Liu Yin is old and refined, Jiang Wei's hesitation was seen by him without a trace, and he understood in his heart, hugged his fists and said: "General, the last general's subordinate governor died in battle during the siege of the Wei army, this son has the heart to serve the country, why don't you let him take this position and garrison the Golden Siege with me, do you think it?" ”
Jiang Wei sighed, how could he not know Shangguan Yin's desire to serve the country, seeing that he and Guan Yi, Zhuge Shang, Liao Lin, Gao Xiu and other young men had grown up, he was naturally infinitely happy in his heart. It's just that Shangguan's family is thin, and when it comes to Shangguan Jing's generation, there is only Shangguan Yin's blood and bones, and now there are years of war, and the soldiers are endless, if Shangguan Yin has another good one, how can he explain to Shangguan Yin under Jiuquan?
"Don't worry, the general, everything falls on the last general, but with the last general, he will be able to keep this son well!" Liu Yin patted his chest, he knew that Jiang Wei and Shangguan Yu were fellow villagers and friends of life and death, and what Jiang Wei was worried about was nothing more than Shangguan Yin's safety.
"Please do it general!" Shangguan Yin said loudly.
"That's it!" Jiang Wei saw that Shangguan Yin was determined to go to the border pass, although he was uneasy, he also greatly appreciated his courage. What's more, the veteran Liu Yinwen Taowu strategy, his talent is not under him, since he promised to take care of Shangguan Yin well, he will not fail himself, let Shangguan Yin follow Liu Yin to guard the Golden Siege, sooner or later, it will never delay his progress.
"This son has to worry about General Lao!"
Liu Yin smiled: "The general can rest assured!" ”
Jiang Wei nodded, helped Shangguan Yin up, and said: "In the army, the decree is as big as a mountain, in the future, you will follow General Liu, be cautious in everything, listen to the teachings, and don't act willfully!" ”
"The last general obeys!" Shangguan Yin's face was still stained with tears, and after thanking Jiang Wei, he saluted Liu Yin again, Jiang Wei saw that he was polite and courteous, quite like Shangguan Yin, and he felt a lot of nostalgia in his heart.
After placing Shangguan Yin, Jiang Wei then said to Liu Yin: "Wei Yuan has ordered Yi Cheng to prepare wine and dinner for the old general to catch the wind and wash the dust, how can he suddenly hear the bad news, he is restless, he really can't accompany the old general, the old general is fortunate not to be surprised!" ”
Liu Yin hurriedly said: "Life and death are fate, the general should go back to the house to rest first, don't be sad, and the last general will wait until tomorrow to obey orders." ”
Jiang Wei nodded, glanced at Liao Hua, Guan Yi and the others again, pulled Shangguan Yin, and motioned for him to go back to the house with him. Guan Yi saw that his expression was sad and his steps were slow, knowing that he was extremely sad in his heart for Shangguan Yu's sudden death, and he wanted to say something but felt like he was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.
After this incident, everyone lost the interest of drinking and having a lively time, Liu Yin and Liao Hua discussed it, and then let everyone go back to their rooms to rest.
Nothing was said all night.
Note: Shangguan Yu was in the Han Dynasty to the Zhongdian Army and the general, and he accompanied Zhuge Wuhou on several northern expeditions. However, whether Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Zixiu are the same person has always been controversial. For the sake of fiction, here it is one person.
