"I'm from Jinyang. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info "As soon as we met, Mrs. Lu said.

Since Liu Xiu arrived in Guanzhong and subdued Luo Yao, Mrs. Lu left him and returned to Huming Mountain, the base of the Heavenly Master's Dao, to build a workshop according to the situation of Jinyang Academy, and recruited Taoist priests to study some practical techniques outside of cultivation. Liu Xiu's fake calligraphy and painting is a profession, and he has more than enough to work with these techniques, and the truth may be able to say something, but when it comes to a certain technology, he is not as good as those craftsmen, so she asked her to go to the Jinyang Workshop by herself, and everyone brainstormed and might be able to find a way.

Mrs. Lu went to Jinyang School after the New Year, and she was very busy in Jinyang School, so much so that Liu Xiu's family restored her clan identity and was named the king of Chu, but she did not come to congratulate her. Now that she suddenly appeared, Liu Xiu couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"What's wrong with Jinyang?" Liu Xiu instinctively thought of whether something would happen to the Jinyang Academy, first the Wen Sacrifice Wine Cai Yong returned to Luoyang, and now the Wu Sacrifice Wine Duan Cheng has also left, the Jinyang School is in charge of a few people who were trained later, whether these people can control the Jinyang School is the most worried problem now.

"Yes." Mrs. Lu lowered her head, avoided Liu Xiu's anxious gaze, and said ashamedly: "Someone came to the Jinyang Workshop to steal, and we found it, but those people and dogs jumped over the wall in a hurry, set a fire, and burned down the Jinyang Workshop. ”

"Set fire?" Liu Xiu was suddenly anxious, Jinyang Workshop was his cash cow, an old hen that laid golden eggs, so if it was ruined, what would he play. "What about the loss? Are there any casualties? ”

"The damage was not big, the rescue was timely, only two rooms were burned down, and a few people were injured, but it was no big deal." Mrs. Lu was very ashamed: "I only cared about studying the manufacture of the mirror with them. Negligence in prevention led to this disaster. ”

"Since the loss is not big, then there is no need to blame yourself too much." Although Liu Xiu was a little unhappy, he couldn't blame Mrs. Lu anymore. She may be good at spellings, but she is really not very good at management. "I'm going to Jinyang soon, do you want to go with me?"

Mrs. Lu was surprised, and hurriedly smiled: "Of course it's better." After a pause, he explained, "I've had some questions about talismans lately, and I just want to borrow an adult's ring to take a look. ”

"Okay, Fengxue is just going to accompany me. It's so much more convenient to have you as your companion. ”

The eldest princess pursed her lips and smiled, glancing at Liu Xiu, which meant to ask Liu Xiu, is it much more convenient or inconvenient? Liu Xiu knew what these women were thinking, but although he had a lot of contact with Mrs. Lu, he had a close relationship with each other. But they didn't do anything to do it, and he did it rightly.

Before Liu Xiu left Luoyang. I went to visit Ma Qiang first. Ma Qiang and a few disciples have been living in seclusion in Pishan, not far from the Bishan of the Heavenly Master's Dao. Although today's Taiping Dao is secretly supported by the Son of Heaven, they are still traitors on the surface, and they can no longer live in the original Luoyangzhi, so they have to hide so as not to be discovered by the guests of the Yuan family.

As soon as he met Ma Qiang, after a few polite words, Liu Xiu asked the most critical question straight to the point, Zhang Ming and their guerrilla warfare fought well, and Yuan Shao was about to be tossed crazy by them. Why do you want to storm the pottery? Liao Tao is Julu County, an important town in the middle of Jizhou, the city wall is strong, the defense is well-known, you have nothing to do with the gall pottery for?

Ma Qiang was embarrassed to be ashamed, and he was embarrassed to tell Liu Xiu the truth, he could only say that the gall Tao and Da Da Continent Ze and Bo Luojin were stuck in the choke point between Montenegro and Anping and Qinghe. Anping and Qinghe were the best places for the Yellow Turban to develop at the beginning, and now they are in the hands of Yuan Shao, if they want to go deep into Anping and Qinghe, they must open up this main road, so they attacked Gall Tao, but they didn't expect the attack to be frustrated, and even the main general Zhang Ming was seriously injured.

In fact, he only said part of it, and the more fundamental reason was that Zhang Ming and they played Yuan Shao around, and they were a little careless, thinking that Yuan Shao was nothing more than that, so they wanted to attack Gall Tao and prepare for the robbery after the next autumn harvest, but they fell for Yuan Shao, and the siege was frustrated and suffered a big loss.

But if he doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that Liu Xiu doesn't know, but it's useless to say this now. He said to Ma Qiang, I want to go to Montenegro to have a look, you arrange for someone to inform Zhang Ming and send someone to pick me up.

Ma Qiang was a little worried: "Is it His Majesty's will?" ”

"What else do you need to say?"

Ma Qiang hesitated for a moment: "My lord, Your Majesty wants to kill the cunning rabbit, cook the lackey, and abandon us, right?" ”

Liu Xiu's face sank: "You made two mistakes. One, the cunning rabbit is not dead, it is you lackeys who were kicked by the cunning rabbit and are dying. Second, Your Majesty did not abandon you, but you did it yourself. I told you at the beginning that if you want Your Majesty to keep you, you must have the capital to negotiate, and you yourself tossed all the capital, who is to blame? Do you know how much food to support you and how much food the state will come up with? Hundreds of thousands of mouths, even a mountain of gold has been eaten up by you. ”

He was very angry, and after a while, he said angrily: "You really gave Your Majesty a long face, Your Majesty just slapped the Yuan family on the side, you turned around and let Yuan Shao slap Your Majesty, you talk about it, can Your Majesty not be annoyed?" ”

Ma Qiang was embarrassed, as one of the eight disciples of Zhang Jiaozao, when had he ever been reprimanded so face-to-face? But now he is indeed at a loss, and he has (the fastest update) to ask Liu Xiu, if Liu Xiu and the Son of Heaven really have the intention of giving up on them, then they have no other way out than to surrender Yuan Shao. And who Yuan Shao is, who is Yuan Shao's subordinates, he knows very well, the result of surrender is that ordinary believers are slaves, and these of them must be a dead end. At this time, he can only put hope on Liu Xiu, even the Son of Heaven may not be reliable, he also knows that the Son of Heaven's health is very bad, maybe he will die tomorrow, the crown prince is still young, once the Son of Heaven dies and the prince ascends the throne, then Liu Xiu is the right minister.

"General, this time it is indeed our mistake, I am willing to ask the general to lend a hand and help us tide over the difficulties, we will only look forward to the general in the future, and never do our own thing."

Liu Xiu sneered, this is what he wants, although the Yellow Turban is defeated, the remaining main force is still not to be underestimated. In history, Cao Cāo started with millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, and now Cao Cāo has occupied Qingxu, and he has no chance to start with those people, and there are nearly a million people in the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans, he can't be messed with by Yuan Shao. Whether it is Bingzhou or Liangzhou, what is most lacking is the population, these people are a burden in front of him, but in the long run, they are a huge wealth. What's more, if the Black Mountain Yellow Turban is under his command, he can integrate an army of 100,000 with combat experience in the blink of an eye.

"Okay, if a person is not a sage, who can be without fault? I have also made mistakes, and you are eager for revenge, and I can understand it, but I can't do this impulsive thing in the future. Liu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and comforted: "I will play Your Majesty's order, go to Montenegro to see your situation, and then go to Merge Prefecture." You send a message to Zhang Ming and ask him to send someone to lure me into the mountain, and we will talk in detail when the time comes. ”

Ma Qiang was grateful, hurriedly agreed, and immediately sent Tang Zhou to Montenegro.

……

Liu Xiu went to Montenegro to check the situation of the Yellow Turban Army, although he received the edict of the Son of Heaven, but the connection with the Yellow Turban has always been disgraceful, so he can't bring more people, except for Fengxue and Mrs. Lu, Wang Zhi, Luo Yao, he only brought Pang De, Yan Xing and other ten tiger soldiers. Xu Yu brought another fifty tiger warriors, divided into five teams before and after, just in case. Despite this, Liu Xiu still didn't dare to take it lightly, now is not a peaceful season, out of Gyeonggi, the public security situation is very bad, bandits and bandits are very common, if he is ambushed by bandits as a fat pig, then he, the prince of Chu, General Wei, will die too much.

For the sake of safety, Liu Xiu decided to cross the river from Mengjin, then enter the border of Bingzhou, cross the southern foot of Taihang Mountain, enter Shangdang County, and then go east from Huguan, through Fukou, and enter Montenegro to meet Zhang Ming. Except for the part of this road in Gyeonggi, which is Bingzhou, it is all under Liu Xiu's control, and the safety factor is high.

The journey went smoothly, and ten days later, Liu Xiu arrived at Hukou Pass, and after a day's rest, he saw Lan Lan who came to greet him.

Lan Lan's face was very haggard, dark and thin, and when she saw Liu Xiu, she forced a smile, but soon fell silent again. She said worriedly: "Please General set off immediately, the earthquake envoy may not be able to endure for long?" ”

"The Earthquake Messenger's injuries are severe?"

"It's heavy." Lan Lan was a little distracted, and after a while, she let out a long breath before she reluctantly laughed: "When attacking the gall pottery, the shock envoy personally went into battle, and was hit by the stray arrows, and it was a sheep's head trapped. ”

Liu Xiu gasped, the sheep's head trap arrow is the most lethal arrow in the Han army, also known as the flying arrow, different from the ordinary triangle or round, prismatic arrow, the sheep's head trap arrow is a three-wing type, the manufacturing process is complex, the cost is high, but the lethality is also particularly strong, the tail with a barb, so it is also called the bowel. This kind of arrow was used more in the Western Han Dynasty, but because copper was more expensive, it was rarely cast in copper in the Eastern Han Dynasty after iron arrows had been popularized.

Because of the difficulty of taking arrows, and the lack of anti-inflammatory drugs in this era, even if you are not killed on the spot, the subsequent wounds can kill many people. After being hit by this kind of arrow, he can still survive and not die until now, it can only be said that Zhang Ming's vitality is really strong enough.

"Alright, let's go at once." Liu Xiu didn't dare to slack off anymore, Zhang Ming and Ma Qiang were the two more authoritative among the surviving Zhang Jiaoba's disciples, Ma Qiang was in Luoyang, responsible for the contact with the Son of Heaven, Zhang Ming led the army to deal with Yuan Shao, Zhang Ming died, whether someone could collect the million yellow scarves was still a question.

Under the guidance of Lan Lan, Liu Xiu and the others quickly left Hukou Pass and plunged into the reckless mountains. They didn't notice that on the cliff on the south side of Hukou Pass, on a pine tree with thick branches, stood a young man dressed in merchant clothes. His face was dark, and a scar stretched almost the entire length of his face.

Seeing Liu Xiu out of the mouth of the pot, he smiled, pulled the scar on his face, and then let go of the falcon on his arm. The falcon soared into the air, with a clear chirp, and disappeared into the blue sky in the blink of an eye. (To be continued.)
