Chapter 65: Catch the Week
A burly man with a naked body was pushed out, he walked staggeringly, his eyes were confused, and he was still a little delirious, and before he arrived in front of Liu Xin, there was a strong smell of alcohol. The soldiers looked at him like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and secretly sweated for him.
Kuai Liang attached himself to Liu Xin's ear and whispered: "This person's name is Wen Ping, although he is only a team leader, he has some prestige in the Nanyang Army. The other team seemed to be out of the camp for a long time. ”
"Wenpin?" Liu Xin was taken aback, his eyebrows tightened, could this be the name of loyalty, wisdom and bravery? He turned to Kuai Liang and said, "Tie him up first, and then send him to me when he wakes up." In addition, we arranged for someone to arrest another team to meet me. ”
Liu Xin returned to the state pastor's mansion from the barracks, and his anger did not subside, but he saw that the mansion was full of joy.
When Ma Yun saw Liu Xin coming back, she said angrily: "Husband, you ran out early in the morning and didn't come back until half an hour, what is today, do you know?" ”
Liu Xin said strangely: "Is there anything special about today's Yuzi?" ”
Bian Yu also heard the sound and walked out, said a blessing to him, and said, "Master, today is the first birthday of the eldest young master." ”
Although Liu Xin accepted Bian Yu, he did not snub Ma Yun in the slightest. And he figured out the secrets of his body, and the husband and wife no longer acted like in the past, they only knew that they would be ruthless, and they would also resort to some gentle means, and the life of the husband and wife was much more harmonious. Ma Yun knew that Bian Yu was born in a Qinglou, but if Bian Yu taught Liu Xin these things, her surname was originally open, but she didn't blame Bian Yu, and the sisters still got along very happily. It's just that Bian Yu attaches great importance to etiquette, and only calls Liu Xin and Ma Yun as masters and Mrs. before and after, even Liu Yu has always been commensurate with the eldest young master, and he is not willing to exceed the courtesy. Liu Xin said that she had said it many times, but she insisted on not changing it, so she had to go.
Liu Xin woke up like a dream, patted his head with his hand and said, "Look at my father, how incompetent he is, he should be punished, he should be punished." ”
Bian Yu said again: "Madame prepared for a day and arranged a show, called Catch Zhou, just wait for the master to come back and host." ”
"Catch Zhou!" Liu Xin looked at Ma Yun in surprise, only to see a smug smile on the corner of her mouth.
In this era, there is no custom of catching Zhou, but Ma Yun is very fond of his son, and the process of catching Zhou is naturally essential. In fact, Ma Yun only remembered to catch Zhou, and she didn't know exactly what to prepare, anyway, this was the first time in the world to catch Zhou, and she said what to do.
There were no outsiders in the house, only Qiao'er, Ying'er, Xiao Liu Yu and Zhu's mother and daughter. The little girl Zou Rui was holding a large lacquer plate in her hand, which contained some things collected by Ma Yun, including brushes, inkstones, copper coins, wood-sharpened knives, small guns, as well as flowers, jewelry, abacus, and snacks. What surprised Liu Xin the most was that there was also a book on it, which was cut with the best paper and then bound with silk thread, which is probably the oldest thread-bound book.
Liu Xin picked up this thread-bound book casually, and there were two simplified characters written on the cover that he was familiar with-science. Gently opened it, it was full of juanxiu small letters, with a lot of popular science knowledge written, of course, all in simplified characters. Liu Xin couldn't help but turn to Ma Yun and give a thumbs up: "Wife, I didn't expect your calligraphy to be so good!" ”
Ma Yun covered her mouth, smiled "eating", and said: "Which is written with a brush, take a good look, it is clearly written with a hard pen." ”
"Hard pen?" Liu Xin was even more strange, "Where did you get the fountain pen?" ”
Ma Yun said with a smile: "Don't guess, it's important to preside over Yu'er's Zhou Capture Ceremony first." ”
Liu Xin was also interested, put down the thread-bound book in his hand, and said, "Okay, you wait a while, I'll add another thing to come in, see if Yu'er likes it." ”
After a while, Liu Xin hurriedly returned from outside, and gently put a copper lump in the lacquer plate, and everyone took a closer look, it turned out that he actually took his official seal.
Ma Yun hugged Liu Yu to the big lacquer plate and put it down, everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on Liu Yu's hands, Ma Yun stood behind Liu Yu, the most nervous.
Liu Yu looked at the plate full of strange toys, and was at a loss for a while, not knowing which one to take. The purpose of catching Zhou is to predict the children's future interests, prospects and careers, although it is not accurate, but Ma Yun attaches too much importance to it, so he does not allow others to speak and prompt, and let Liu Yu pick and choose.
Liu Yu's small hands danced on the lacquer plate, and finally his right hand stretched out and grabbed Liu Xin's official seal tightly.
Although Liu Xin knew that this was just a small game, he already had the determination to dominate the world, and seeing that Liu Yu chose his official seal, this was a good sign, and he couldn't help laughing proudly: "Sure enough, it's my good son!" ”
Who knows, before his words fell, Liu Yu stretched out his left hand again, but this time he grabbed Zou Rui's wrist holding the plate tightly and refused to let go.
Ma Yun suddenly leaned forward and closed, laughing so much that tears came out, and pushed Liu Xin beside him and said: "If there is a father, there must be a son, and he is also a womanizer." ”
The mother and daughter of the Zhu family made a big red face on the side.
The next morning, before dawn, there was a big man kneeling in front of the door of the governor's mansion, this big man was naked, and a bundle of thorns was tied to his back, which was Wen Ping.
Liu Xin walked out of the house when he heard the news and said, "What's wrong?" The Wen team is positive, dare to play a play to ask for guilt? ”
Wen Ping knelt on the ground and cried silently: "I think that my Wen Ping has a body of martial arts, I can't protect the people of Li, I can't protect my wife and children, what kind of face is born in the world!" If it weren't for the fact that Kuai Taishou relayed the lord's words to me yesterday, I wouldn't have woken up. The villain is so stupid that he violates military law, please punish the lord according to the law! ”
It turned out that the Yellow Turban attacked Wancheng at night, Chu Gong was defenseless, the Nanyang army was in turmoil, Wen Ping relied on martial arts, fought a bloody way alone, and escaped from the city, but his parents and new wife stayed in the city and were killed by the Yellow Turban. Wen Ping has been in pain since then, and finally borrowed wine to drown his sorrows.
Seeing this, Liu Xin shouted: "The man doesn't flick if he has tears, you stand up and speak for me!" ”
Wen Ping's hands are tied behind his back, and he has thorns tied on his back, which makes it easy to kneel, but it is a little difficult to stand up. Kuai Liang sympathized with his plight, stepped forward to help, and helped him up.
Liu Xin continued: "Wen Ping, your parents love their wives in the sky, and they definitely don't want to see you like this. Man, husband, where to fall and where to get up, you must not give up on yourself, the road ahead is still very long, although the Nanyang Yellow Turban is gone, but the people's life is still hard, are you willing to help me do something for the people? ”
Wen Ping was quite surprised, stunned for a long time, "plopped", and fell to the ground again: "The lord will not give up!" Wen is willing to swear to follow the lord to the death! ”
Liu Xin laughed, stretched out his hand to help him up, untied the rope on his body, threw the thorn aside, and said: "Knowing that you can change, you are good, so you can look like a man!" However, you have no complaints about the mistakes you have made in the past, and you have to do the work of the people for twenty-five days, just like other soldiers? ”
Wen Ping said loudly: "No complaints! ”
"Good!" Liu Xin turned to Kuai Liang again and asked, "Is the team that evacuated the barracks caught?" ”
Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "This person has been away from the barracks for a long time, and I'm afraid he won't be in Xiangyang for a long time. ”
Wen Ping arched his hand and said: "Hui Lord, this person's name is Huang Zhong, and he is a team leader in the Nanyang Army with me, and he has had several encounters in the past. I heard that he escaped from Wancheng with his family, and now he has rented a house in Xiangyang City to live in, so he is not in the army. This person is also a loyal and righteous person, and he hopes that the lord can open up the net. ”
"Huang Zhong?!" Liu Xin was immediately overjoyed and said: "This Huang Zhong should be punished for his withdrawal from the barracks, and the punishment for him is the same as yours, and I will never tolerate it." Do you know where he lives? ”
Wen Ping heard that Liu Xin was just going to let Huang Zhong help the people do twenty-five days of work for nothing, so he relaxed and said, "Back to the lord, Wen has heard the sergeant talk about his rented place. The villain will go to the lord duke. ”
Wen Ping led Liu Xin to a house in Xiangyang Xicheng, and gently clicked the door knocker, but heard the sound of women crying faintly in the house.
At the door of the house, a man appeared in front of Liu Xin. This person is in his thirties, more than seven feet long, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and his face is sinking like water, but he has a slightly sad appearance.
Liu Xin saw that this person's popularity was extraordinary, and he secretly thought to himself in his heart, it was Huang Zhong.
I only heard Wen Ping say: "Brother Hansheng, this is Lord Mu Liu of Jingzhou, I am here to look for you." ”
Liu Xin muttered in his heart, sure enough, it was Huang Zhong, it turned out that Huang Zhong was not very old at this time, and it was the time when he was in the prime of life.
But he saw Huang Zhong arching his hand at Liu Xin, and said: "It turned out to be the state pastor, the villain has something to do, and it is inconvenient to receive it, so please go back." After saying that, he wanted to close the door and send off the guests.
Liu Xin's face sank and said, "Huang Zhong, I'm not here to gossip with you. As a soldier of the Han Dynasty, you left your post without permission and violated military law, do you not know how to repent? ”
Huang Zhong saw that his words were not good, his fists clenched, and he said angrily: "My lord is here to arrest Huang today!" ”
At this time, there were bursts of crying in the house, Liu Xin was puzzled in his heart, and asked, "Huang Zhong, what happened to your family?" If there is anything that is difficult to do, just say it. But whatever the reason, it can't be a reason for you to get away with it! ”
Huang Zhong clenched his fists and loosened, loosened and clenched, as if it was difficult to choose, hesitated again and again, and finally sighed and said: "Alas, the child is seriously ill and will die soon!" ”
When Liu Xin heard this, he frowned and asked, "Have you ever seen the imperial doctor?" ”
Huang Zhong shook his head helplessly, and said, "Several famous imperial doctors in Xiangyang City have come to see it, alas, ......"
Liu Xin suddenly came to his senses and said anxiously: "Quick, hurry up and take the child, and follow me to meet someone!" Now it's important to save the child first! I'll settle accounts with you later! ”
