Deng Ai?
This kid in front of him is Deng Ai?
Fang Shao was secretly taken aback, originally he didn't believe that there would be such a coincidence, but when he remembered his stammering way of speaking, he couldn't help but believe it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Deng Ai in history is indeed a stammer.
However, Fang Shao vaguely remembered that there was a history that in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Ying led a large army to attack Jingzhou in the south, and after Liu Cong surrendered, Cao Ying forcibly moved some of the locals in the Xinye area to the north.
At that time, Fang Shao also knew that Xinye had a child named Deng Ai, who was likely to grow into a generation of famous generals in the future, but at that time, considering that Deng Ai was just a child in his teens, and with his humble official position at that time, it was impossible for Liu Bei to favor an unknown child, so he didn't take any action.
But I didn't expect that after ten years, I would meet Deng Ai here.
However, what made Fang Shao suspicious was that Deng Ai shouldn't be his Tuntian citizen in Runan at this moment, how could he come to this Nanyang realm.
So, Fang Shao asked: "It turned out to be Deng Shizai, I don't know where you are from, and how did you join the army?" ”
"Ai is actually a new savage clan, in the early years when Cao Ying went south, Ai was moved to Runan Tuntian with the clan, because I know a little bit, so a few years ago was appointed as a military leader. This time the two armies fought, Runan Tuntian was ordered to transport grain and grass, and the captain of Diannong knew that I was a new savage and was familiar with the terrain around Nanyang, so he sent me to escort the grain and grass, but he didn't want to be obtained by this General Guan and Miss Guan halfway. ”
Deng Ai knew that he was stammering, so he deliberately slowed down his speech, but although his speed of speech was slow, every word was calm and powerful, so that those who wanted to make fun of him couldn't laugh.
As soon as the words fell, before Fang Shao could speak, Guan Yinping asked, "Who did you learn your martial arts from?" ”
Deng Ai replied: "Among the people of Tuntian, there are also some villagers who know martial arts, and when Ai was a child, he watched them practice martial arts, and these martial arts were all obtained by Ai himself. ”
"It turned out to be self-taught, well, rare, really rare." Guan Yinping couldn't help but praise, with a slight smile of approval on his face.
Maybe this Guan Yinping was also influenced by his father's habits, and he didn't have a good impression of those officials, scholars, and doctors, but he had a kind of sympathy and closeness for this kind of lower-class people out of his own surname.
At this time, Fang Shao was sure that the kid in front of him was Deng Ai, thinking that this Deng Ai was really the same as in history, in the face of adversity, he could also work hard and constantly improve himself, Fang Shao couldn't help but appreciate him a little more.
Jiang Wei, Deng Ai and others are all rising stars, their talents are not inferior to the famous generals in the world, Fang Shao has the intention to accept them for his own use, but this Deng Ai is not better than Jiang Wei after all, he is a pawn who has just surrendered, Fang Shao is naturally not at ease to take him with him to cultivate like this, even if he wants to reuse it in the future, then he has to observe for a period of time.
So, Fang Shao said, "What position do you have in the Cao Army?" ”
"Ai Guan is the captain of the Dian Nong, and he is responsible for guarding the straw." Deng Ai replied happily, not ashamed of his humble official position.
In the tuntian system established by Cao Ying, the Diannong Duwei is equivalent to an official at the county order level, and the Diannong Duwei is equivalent to a lower-level official at the county level, and Deng Ai is responsible for guarding the straw, so it seems that his official position should be the lower level of the lower ranks.
Fang Shao thought for a while, and then said: "Since this is the case, then I will ask General Guan for you a position of Diannong Gongcao, first experience and experience you, see if you really have real talent and learning, if you do well, you will be rewarded and promoted." ”
Because during the Battle of Xiangfan, the population of northern Jingzhou was sharply reduced due to the war, and the Jingzhou army lacked food. Of course, the policy is much more lenient than Cao Ying's tuntian, and the division between the people and the officials is also divided according to the ratio of seven to three, which is far better than Cao Ying's cruel policy of five or five, or even four or six.
The official position of this Diannong Gongcao is second only to the Diannong Duwei, and for Deng Ai, a descendant, he can be promoted several levels as soon as he comes up, which is already quite a good treatment.
Deng Ai, who originally lived a dark and hopeless life, thought that after being captured, he met a nobleman instead, and saw that the future was bright all of a sudden, and his life took a turn.
At this moment, he was full of emotion in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Ai Duo thank General Fang for his promotion, please rest assured General Fang, Ai Bi will change his mind and serve the king of Hanzhong wholeheartedly, and will never disappoint General Fang's kindness." ”
Looking at the young man in front of him who was grateful to himself, the corners of Fang Shao's mouth couldn't help but show a little smugness.
………… After recommending Deng Ai to Guan Yu and making all the arrangements, Fang Shao continued to embark on the road to the east, a few days later, passing through Fankou, Fang Shao originally planned to visit Lu Su, but heard that the governor of Eastern Wu was now seriously ill, and now he had gone to Chaisang to recuperate, Fang Shao immediately set off and hurried to Chaisang.
In Zhou Yu's Governor's Mansion that year, Fang Shao once again saw the sick Governor of Eastern Wu, at this moment, Lu Su no longer saw the elegance and elegance of the year, and the whole person was yellow and thin, as if he was already looking like he was not much.
"Zhongzheng, you're here, I'm sick and weak, and I can't meet you from afar, I hope you don't see responsibility." Lu Su held the crutches in his hands, and with the support of his subordinates, he stood outside the gate and waited for Fang Shao's arrival.
Seeing this, Fang Shao hurriedly jumped out of the car, walked forward in a few steps, took Lu Su's hand, and said with concern: "What Zijing said, what kind of relationship is there between you and me, do you still need to be so polite, you are sick, how can you come out, quickly, I will go into the house and talk." ”
The two entered the hall together, sat down as the guest of honor, Lu Su weakly instructed the maid to serve tea and snacks to entertain the guests, and when he spoke, he coughed from time to time, it seems that this illness is indeed very serious.
"Zijing, when you came to see off your relatives the other time, you were still in good spirits, why haven't you seen you for a few years, and your body and bones have become like this?" Fang Shao asked with concern.
Lu Su sighed and said with emotion: "This is the so-called death by fate, since last year, my body bones have been getting worse and worse for some reason, and I am afraid that there are not many more people who have come." ”
Roughly calculated, Fang Shao and Lu Su have known each other since Xiakou, and now they have known each other for nearly ten years, although the two sides have also made a big fight during this period, but in general, the two sides have come and gone, in Fang Shao's reflection, Lu Su has always been regarded as a person who has a good relationship with him in Eastern Wu.
Now seeing Lu Su sick like this, Fang Shao is also quite a pity in his heart, and he also knows that Lu Su in history died of illness around the twenty-second year of Jian'an.
Lu Su's death was obviously not what Fang Shao wanted to see.
Among the ministers of Eastern Wu, Lu Su has always been a staunch supporter of the policy of "uniting Liu to resist Cao", and although Sun Quan always has plans for Jingzhou, under Lu Su's strong opposition, on the whole, Sun Quan's determination to Jingzhou is still reserved.
However, if Lu Su goes, then, according to Fang Shao's speculation, he will be replaced by Lu Meng, who has risen very quickly in Eastern Wu recently, this person is a stubborn main battle faction, if this person comes to power, then Eastern Wu's attitude towards Jingzhou is bound to change in an unfavorable direction.
The "careless loss of Jingzhou" in history happened shortly after Lu Su died and Lu Meng came to power.
Obviously, the survival or death of Lu Suzai is likely to be a turning point in Soochow's foreign policy.
However, Fang Shao came prepared.
After hearing Lu Su's lonely words, Fang Shao laughed and said disapprerovingly: "Zijing, don't you always think that things are man-made, why do you believe in that destiny now." ”
Lu Su sighed again, "I didn't believe in the Mandate of Heaven, but my body was originally good, but for no reason it was seriously ill, and I was helpless to ask for many doctors. ”
Fang Shao drank a cup of tea, and the corners of his mouth showed a little smugness, "Zijing, you don't need to be discouraged, in fact, this time I came to Chaisang and brought you a big gift." ”
Lu Su was stunned for a moment, and reluctantly smiled: "You and I are old friends, I am very happy that you can come to see me, why bother to bring any big gifts, but it seems to be out of sight." ”
Fang Shao said: "You came to marry in person a few times ago, I haven't thanked you yet, the so-called gift is still exchanged, and my gift is also deserved, now the gift is in the outer hall, Zijing should take a look first." ”
Lu Su hurriedly shook his hand and said: "I, Lu Su, am an official with two sleeves and a clean breeze, one does not accept gifts, and the other does not give gifts, and you also know Zhongzheng." I have received your wishes, and as for this gift, you should take it back. ”
Fang Shao's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said: "Zijing, I don't just give this gift to you, but to the thousands of people in Dongwu, as well as our Liu Sun's friendship for generations, you have to accept it, and you have to accept it if you don't accept it." ”
Lu Su was confused at this time, and said blankly: "Zhongzheng, why did you say this?" ”
Fang Shao's face became mysterious again, "When you see what kind of gift I brought you, Zijing, you will naturally understand, come, quickly invite that big gift to Lu Dudu." ”
Lu Su's curiosity was aroused, so he didn't stop it.
After a while, I saw an old man with a childish face and a fairy walking inside.
"This is ......" Lu Su was even more confused, how could he have imagined that this great gift that Fang Shao brought to him would be an old man with a fairy bones.
Fang Shao smiled faintly and said, "This is the great gift I brought to Zijing, this person is the world's miracle doctor, Mr. Zhang Zhongjing is also." ”
