"The Grand Duke, the Grand Duke!" In the empty hall of the Shucheng County Government, Liu Ji's voice was particularly loud.

Qiao Ren slowly put down the pen in his hand and asked softly, "What's the matter?" ”

Liu Ji straightened his body and said, "Governor, the lord's order is down." After speaking, he handed a letter to Qiao Ren.

"Just say it!"

"Yes!" Liu Ji didn't shirk either, and said directly: "The lord appointed General Lu Fan to lead Yangzhou to return to Jianye, and the metropolitan governor to lead Lujiang Taishou. In addition, 2,000 soldiers and horses were transferred to protect General Sun Jiao and Zhu Huan, the captain of Yuyao Changzhaode, led a thousand troops to return to the governor's rule. ”

"Shulang?" Qiao Ren is no stranger to Sun Jiao, because Sun Jiao is the third son of Sun Ce's uncle Sun Jing. And Sun Jing was the matchmaker when the two Qiao got married, at that time, Sun Jing ran to Qiao Yu (Qiao Guolao) almost every day, and the two families also had a friendship, and this Sun Jiao was also a close friend with Zhuge Jin, and the relationship with Qiao Ren was also good.

As for Zhu Huan, Qiao Ren has another experience. Zhu Huan is a descendant of the Zhu family of Wu County, after the merger of the Zhu family of Danyang and the Zhu family of Wu County, he can be regarded as Zhu Ran's brother, and he has served under Sun Quan since the army. However, thinking of Zhu Huan in history, Qiao Ren also had some expectations in his heart. Chen Shou's evaluation of him is 'Huan protects the front, shame is subordinate, and the temperance is not free and angry.' However, light wealth and righteousness, and strong knowledge. Be with people, and never forget it for decades. ’

Judging from this, this Zhu Huan should be a straightforward man, Qiao Ren secretly thought that he was probably specially sent by the Wuzhong family to get a piece of the pie, Qiao Ren is now in a good situation in Jiangbei, but almost all of his subordinates are Jiangbei generals, and it is understandable to send a general of the Jiangdong faction to mix some merits.

However, Qiao Ren remembered Lu Fan, who was promoted to Yangzhou pastor, "Respect, Shucheng and Anhui City are more than a day's journey. Do you know if Lu Yangzhou can leave? ”

Liu Ji was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Governor, Ji doesn't know." However, the messenger of the herald has only come from Anhui City, so it is better to ask him. ”

"Alright! Invite him in. ”

Fortunately, the messenger who came to give the order was still resting in the side hall and did not stay at the post house, so Liu Ji invited the messenger in less than a quarter of an hour.

"Back to the governor, the envoy has arrived."

Qiao Ren looked up, and the messenger he saw had a face like a crown of jade, wearing a virtuous crown on his head, and his appearance was gentle. However, Qiao Ren always felt that this person seemed to be a little familiar, and after looking at it for a minute, he said uncertainly: "But uncle? ”

The envoy looked at Qiao Ren with a smile on his face, and only laughed when he heard Qiao Ren call out his name: "I don't want you Qiao Dadu Governor to remember to go down to this district to ride the general's mansion in the west Cao Peng." ”

"Haha! Why should Brother Zhang laugh at me, you must know that in the past, we were both called Jiangdong Young Heroes! "The person who came was Zhang Dun. The word Uncle Fang, a native of Wu County. Dunde is profound, pure and indifferent, and good at writing. Sun Quan was a general of the Che Cavalry, and he was the second pawn in the Chinese New Year's Eve.

In this world, there is a rumor in Jiangdong: Lu Ji and Gu Shao are equally famous for their exposition books, followed by Qiao Ren, Lu Xun, Zhang Dun, and Bu Jing.

And Zhang Dun had the same reputation as Qiao Ren at that time, and they were both based on the Spring and Autumn Period of the Zuo family, so the relationship between the two was also good, and they didn't want to meet again today.

Qiao Ren was in a very happy mood when he met his old acquaintance in another country, and hurriedly took Zhang Dun's hand and sat down, and ordered him to prepare some wine and food left and right. After the banquet was served, Qiao Ren opened his mouth and asked, "Uncle Fang is just by the lord's side, do you know what the lord's plans are now?" ”

Zhang Dun calmly drank a glass of wine, touched his beard and said: "Recently, the lord often summons General Hou and Zhuge Overseer, and sometimes also summons Erzhang and Gu Shi, and a certain often records on the side. Listening to what they discussed, it was basically about internal affairs and military management. ”

"Oh, the interior and the army?"

Zhang Dun glanced at Qiao Ren and said with a smile: "Why doesn't Ziyan believe me anymore, let me tell you the truth, although the lord has implemented Ziyan's new method of cultivation in Jiangdong and Jingnan counties, although the effect is good." But the number of troops I raise in Jiangdong is huge, and now the granaries are about to bottom out. This time, the lord originally wanted you to hold the Lujiang River, but General Hou suggested that you let Ziyan decide for yourself, so the lord ordered you to make your own decision."

Only then did Qiao Ren understand that there was no food and grass in Jiangdong.

―――――――――――――――――― - Dividing Line――――――――――――――――

Just when Qiao Ren was chatting happily, he didn't know that there was a beautiful woman in Poyang County, hundreds of miles away, who was thinking about her. Panyang County Shoufu, today is a lantern knot, and the servants are also smiling, not what a festival today, but Poyang Taishou Buqi's sister step trainer today and Wat.

But in the back hall, the splendid foot trainer had a bad face, and from time to time he glanced at the same bad face. Obviously, Bu Qi saw that the step trainer was peeking at him, and said angrily: "Why are you still reasonable, you see that you are not too young, but you have pushed away several marriages." ”

In the original history, the foot trainer should have been taken in by Sun Quan after crossing the Jiangdong with his mother, but somehow in this life he took refuge in the same clan's brother Buqiu early, and did not marry Sun Quan, but sometimes the inertia of history is sometimes so strong, I don't know for what chance, Sun Quan actually met the foot trainer, and was confused by his beauty as soon as he met. Last month, I specially asked a matchmaker to propose to Buqi.

Seeing that his brother was angry, the foot trainer was also a little worried, after the foot trainer and her mother crossed to the east, they had been living in the Buqiu Mansion, and Buqiu also treated their mother and daughter as close relatives. Bu Qiu was busy with her marriage, but she was disturbed by her not marrying, but for the sake of her henchmen, she gritted her teeth and said: "Brother, if a slave wants to marry, he must marry a hero like the Supreme (Sun Ce's honorific title) and the Grand Duto." ”

Hearing this, Bu Qi hurriedly poured a sip of cold water, pointed to the step trainer and said, "The lord and the governor? Don't even think about it. Just as the Houmen is as deep as the sea, besides, Mrs. Er Qiao is so favored, why are you marrying in? ”

"Then you have to marry someone as heroic as the Grand Duke."

Bu Qiu persuaded bitterly: "What's wrong with Xinting Hou (Sun Quan, sealed by Sun Ce), it's the same wise and martial arts!" ”

"Don't, blonde and blue-eyed, scared to death!"

"You!" Bu Qi was completely speechless, and only squeezed out a sentence in the middle of the sound, "Then who are you going to marry?" ”

"A hero like the Grand Duke!"

"You, you!!" Bu Qi looked like he was about to die, and he came to such a conclusion after asking for a long time. Just when Bu Qi was about to get angry, his head suddenly became clear, and he pointed at the foot trainer and couldn't speak. "You're not going to marry Qiao Dudu!"

The more Bu Qi thought about it, the more it was like that, Qiao Ren was young, handsome and dashing, and he was the governor of the capital, and he defeated Li Tong a few days ago, and he was the most prosperous young talent in Jiangdong. Bu Qi suddenly remembered that when he was still in Xindu County, the foot trainer often held Qiao Ren's hand, and his brother and brother shouted, which girl is not merciful, I am afraid that at that time the foot trainer would like Qiao Ren. However, after thinking about it, Qiao Ren's appearance is well-known in Jiangdong, and it is indeed much better than the blonde-haired, blue-eyed and strange-looking Sun Quan.

Hearing Bu Qi say that name, the step trainer who was still a little imposing suddenly turned into a girl with affection. "Uh-huh, uh-huh" sounds the size of a mosquito.

"You!" Bu Qi was so angry that he stomped his feet, what is the difference between marrying Qiao Ren and marrying Zhou Yu, it's just that the age is different. And it's better to marry Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao is gentle and lovely, and empathetic; And Sun Shangxiang is... The more I think about it, the more I think about it, the more I don't feel good, but when I see the shape of the step trainer, I don't know what to say. "Forget it, since you want to. I don't persuade my brother anymore, I am also friends with Ziyan, I see when I mention it to him, as for whether it will be successful, my brother does not dare to guarantee it. ”

Huaiyin Bu and Huaiyin Dai have a good marriage, Dai Lan is now Qiao Ren's concubine, if the step trainer marries but does not know what position it should be, this is also where Bu Qi's inner depression lies.
