Chapter 246: Loyal and Righteous Ones
Knowing that Liu Bei was dead, Guan Yu and Xiahou Bo were extremely depressed.
During the banquet, the two drank a few more glasses.
Don't talk about Guan Yu, just talk about Xiahou Bo.
With seven or eight points of drunkenness, he staggered back to his residence with the support of Cao Jun's soldiers.
Entering the room, he took out the soldiers and sat alone behind the table.
Liu Bei followed him when he was the plain order, and it has been many years now.
Thinking of the past, Xiahou Bo felt a pang of pain in his heart.
During the banquet, he endured his sorrow and drank blindly.
Sitting alone in the room, he could no longer restrain his emotions, and hid his face with his hands and cried bitterly.
The soldiers of Cao Jun, who were guarding outside the house, heard him howling inside the house and did not ask.
Xiahou Bo howled for half an hour, and finally quieted down.
The two Cao Jun outside the door listened to it for a while, but there was no movement, and one of them whispered: "I should be tired of crying." ”
Another said, "If you lose your lord, you can cry and you'll be fine!" ”
The two Cao Jun did not enter the house to check,
At this time, in the house, there was a white silk horse hanging on the beam, and Xiahou Bo hung on it, and his legs were still trembling and kicking......
Guan Yu, who returned to his residence, felt that the atmosphere was not right when he entered the house.
There were a few more maids in the house that he didn't recognize.
Seeing Guan Yu returning, the maids saluted him one after another.
Looking at the strange maid, Guan Yu pushed the door and entered the house.
The room was lit with oil lamps, the light and shadow were dim, and two women sat facing each other.
The door opened, and one of the women asked, "Who?" ”
Guan Yu was taken aback.
Looking closely, it was Mrs. Gan and Mrs. Mi sitting in the room.
Guan Yu hurriedly saluted: "My brother didn't know that the two sisters-in-law were here, so they recklessly entered." Don't blame my sister-in-law! ”
Mrs. Gan asked, "Dare to ask the second uncle, is this the uncle's residence?" ”
"My sister-in-law stayed. It's my sister-in-law's residence! ”
The two ladies were silent.
"Don't dare to delay my sister-in-law's rest, Yu retires!" Bow down. Guan Yu retreated.
Seeing him close the door from the outside, Mrs. Gan sighed lightly: "Cao Cao wants to borrow his uncle to get drunk, and wants us to do something to betray the envoy, but fortunately, my uncle is loyal, and you and I can save our reputation." ”
Mrs. Mi had a sad face: "I don't know if the envoy is at this time." ”
Hearing the two ladies mention Liu Bei outside the door, Guan Yu slowly closed his eyes, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
Xiahoudun killed Liu Bei, seeing that the enemy was beside him, he was powerless to kill.
Liu Bei died in Xuzhou. Guan Yu had the heart to follow, and only after seeing the two ladies did he change his mind again.
The sister-in-law is in Xudu, and her fate is in the hands of Cao Cao.
Sending them to the bedroom, Cao Cao obviously had ulterior motives.
He is still alive, and if he dies, the future of the two ladies is in doubt.
After settling down with my sister-in-law, it's too late to follow my brother again!
With sadness in his heart, Guan Yu's strength in wine has also disappeared a lot.
"Clean up the room. Rest in peace! He commanded the maid.
"Back to the general, there is no room other than here." A maid answered.
Guan Yu frowned.
There are many empty rooms in the small courtyard, and the maid refuses to clean it up. It can be seen that he was also assigned by Cao Cao.
With a cold snort, he walked to an empty room and pushed into the room.
There was nothing in the room.
Entered the house. Guan Yu lay down on the cold ground, and it didn't take long for him to start snoring.
Cao Cao slept sweetly all night.
It is falsely rumored that Liu Bei is dead. Guan Yu and Xiahou Bo became masterless generals.
It will only be a matter of time to surrender to him.
Nothing to say all night, early the next morning. Cao Cao sent someone to inquire about Guan Yu and Xiahou Bo.
But a cup of tea, the guards who inquired about the news turned back.
Seeing Cao Cao, the guard half-knelt on the ground and said in a panic: "Qi Cao Gong, Xiahou Bo committed suicide by hanging the beam last night!" ”
Cao Cao was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "How is Guan Yunchang?" ”
"Guan Yu returned to his residence, saw the two ladies, had nowhere to rest, and slept on the ground of the empty room all night."
Cao Cao was stunned.
Xiahou Bo's death was certainly unexpected.
Guan Yu can not forget his brotherhood when he is drunk, and would rather sleep on the cold ground than do the slightest unrighteous act!
Full of emotion, Cao Cao instructed the guards: "Bury Xiahou Bo, don't be troubled again." Send some silk brocade to the two ladies of Ganmi! ”
The Guardian withdrew.
Cao Cao walked to the window.
Looking at the snowy back garden, he sighed.
Around Liu Bei, there are such loyal and righteous people!
At the same time, Qingzhou.
Wind and snow, Yuan Xu led the team all the way to the north.
As they were on the way, the scouts sent earlier rushed over in the blizzard.
When Yuan Xu approached, the scout stood on the horse: "The eldest son has been stationed here for many days, just waiting for the prince to return!" ”
"How far is the eldest brother from here?" Yuan Xu asked.
"Less than twenty miles!"
Yuan Xu turned around and shouted, "Speed up!" ”
Wind and snow are blowing, and every step of the soldiers is extremely difficult.
Yuan Xu's order was issued, and the two thousand Yuan troops braved the heavy snow and quickened their pace.
"I don't know when this snow will end." Riding side by side with Yuan Xu, Liu Bei said: "It was snowing when I returned, and the road was a little more difficult. Thinking of this, a certain heart is uneasy! ”
"Deep winter has arrived, and snow is common!" Yuan Xu replied: "This snow has helped me wait." ”
Liu Bei looked at Yuan Xu puzzled.
Yuan Xu said: "Cheng Yu and others occupy Beihai and Qidi, and when they learned that the envoy came to Qingzhou, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not send troops to stop them. At this time, the snow fell to make the Junji people look like heaven and make it difficult for the enemy to send troops. ”
"There is some truth in saying this!" Liu Bei said: "Pulling the son to brave the snow to rush is exactly where a certain heart is uneasy!" ”
"You don't have to mind!" Yuan Xu responded.
As he was walking, he noticed more than a dozen black shadows in front of him.
The black shadow braved the wind and snow and approached them at great speed.
The distance is getting closer and closer, although it is wind and snow, Yuan Xu still sees that it is Yuan Tan who is at the forefront of the horse.
Shaking the reins, Yuan Xu urged the horse to meet him.
Seeing this, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei also followed suit.
"Xianxin!" Seeing Yuan Xu coming up, Yuan Tan shouted from afar.
"Elder brother!" Speeding up, when Yuan Tan approached, Yuan Xu arched his hand and said: "There is elder brother Lao who is here, and my brother is terrified!" ”
"You and my brother, say these foreign words!" Interrupting Yuan Xu, Yuan Tan asked, "Have you welcomed Liu Yuanjun?" ”
Looking at Liu Bei and Zhang Fei who were rushing, Yuan Xu said: "These two are Liu Yuanjun and General Zhang Yide!" ”
Yuan Tan bowed to the two: "I heard that the envoy is coming to Qingzhou, and I hope to forgive my sins!" ”
"There is a young man who comes to greet him, and I feel inexplicable!" Liu Bei hurriedly returned the salute.
Zhang Fei also arched his hand.
"This is not the place to talk, I will talk again when I return to the camp." Yuan Tan said.
Yuan Xu instructed Tai Shi Gong: "Pass the order and speed up the march!" ”
Taishi complied, and shouted in a loud voice: "Childe has an order, speed up!" (To be continued.) )
