Chapter 520: Jiang Gan steals books
Jiang Gan came here to volunteer in front of Liu Ze's account, saying that he and Zhou Yu were close friends, and when he was studying in a private school in Shu County, he could wear a pair of pants if he was good, and he would definitely be able to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender this time in Chibi.
After Jiang Gan defected to Liu Biao that year, he relied on some talents and learned and was treated by Liu Biao as a guest. Liu Biao was a vassal and elegant, and liked to dance and write ink, and half-toned literati and Confucian scholars like Jiang Gan were also very courteous. The curtain guest is also a doorman, and he has no actual power, at most, he will give Liu Biao an idea, and it is not difficult for Jiang Gan to mix food and clothing under Liu Biao. After Liu Biao's death, Liu Cong surrendered to the state, and Liu Ze took over the position of Jingzhou pastor. Don't look at Liu Ze is a student of the great Confucian Lu Zhi and Cai Yong, but he has no Confucian elegance at all, and he is not interested in Liu Biao's set at all, although the curtain guests like Jiang Gan have stayed in office for the time being, but they basically have nothing to do, and Jiang Gan heard that Liu Ze intends to remove the curtain guests, and suddenly feels that the crisis is coming. So Jiang Ganmao recommended himself and boasted in front of Liu Ze that he wanted to cross the river to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender.
Jia Xu immediately objected, believing that persuading Zhou Yu to surrender was pure nonsense, and Jiang must have done it in vain.
Liu Ze was noncommittal, Jiang Gan could persuade Zhou Yu to surrender, Liu Ze didn't believe it at all, but he was idle anyway, and it didn't seem to hurt to let Jiang Gan run away, not to mention that Liu Ze seemed to have other borrowing, so he agreed to Jiang Gan's request.
After Jiang Gan was ordered, he took things seriously and made up a set of rhetoric early, but he didn't want Zhou Yu to give him a chance to be a lobbyist at all, Lu Meng stood under the hall with his sword, but his eyes kept staring at Jiang Gan with bad intentions. It seemed that as soon as Jiang Gan opened his mouth, the sword would reach his neck, so frightened that Jiang Gan could only keep silent.
Xi Zhou Yu was full of pride, frequently raised his glass, staggered, and couldn't help but be half drunk. Jiang Gan secretly had a heart, ate like chewing wax, reluctantly drank a few glasses, and said: "I can't do enough to drink, so I can't drink anymore." β
Zhou Yu laughed and said, "Ziyi deceived me. I want to be in Shu County back then. You and I once stole the teacher's wine to drink, who rushed to drink at that time, and was so drunk that he couldn't wake up? β
Jiang Gan's face turned red and said, "Such a troubled thing." What else does Brother Gongjin do with it? β
Zhou Yu waved his hand. "Okay." Don't mention it, it's rare to reunite old friends today, and a certain heart is really happy. You have to get drunk, come on, come on, drink together! β
Another booze, Zhou Yu just wanted to be happy, and got drunk. Although Jiang Gan drank less, he also felt dizzy, and repeatedly said to forgive: "Brother Gongjin forgives his sins, and the younger brother really can't drink anymore." β
Zhou Yu was not reluctant, let people withdraw the banquet, pulled Jiang Gan, and went out of the big tent together, a cold wind blew, Zhou Yu was full of wine, staggering, Jiang Gan hurriedly helped each other, and said: "Brother Gongjin is drunk." β
Zhou Yu glared at him and said, "I'm drunk?" Joke! When have you ever seen me drunk? If you don't believe me, I'll show you a straight lineβ" He stretched out his hand and pushed him away, and walked forward, trying to get out of a straight line, but his body staggered and took a twisted route.
Jiang Gan laughed secretly, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, stepped forward to support Zhou Yu, and said, "Brother Gongjin, let's rest in peace earlier, how about we talk again tomorrow?" β
Zhou Yu ignored him, looked at the left and right, and pointed with his hand at the sergeant who was fully equipped with a halberd and said, "Ziyi is coming from the north, Liu Zezhi's sergeant, is it so majestic?" β
"It's not as good, it's not as good, it's a thousand miles away." Jiang Gan agreed.
Zhou Yu pointed to the warship in the water village again, and said: "There are thousands of warships, like clouds, crossing the river and crossing the water, like walking on the ground, Liu Ze's warship, but is my opponent?" β
"Gongjin crisscrosses the rivers and seas, and no one in the world can reach it."
Zhou Yu looked up to the sky and laughed, and said to Jiang Gan: "Ziyi scolded me." β
Jiang Gan panicked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "The little brother is telling the truth, and he doesn't dare to deceive. β
Zhou Yu laughed again, pointed to the clusters of lights in Jiangbei, and said loudly: "Ziyi, don't look at Liu Zexin's Jingzhou, he is rampant, a certain army can be broken in a moment, is Ziyi credible?" β
"Believe, of course believe, Brother Gong Jin is strategizing to win a thousand miles, how can Liu Ze compete with Gong Jin?"
Zhou Yu pulled Jiang Gan and said: "Don't hide Ziyi, I have already thought about a plan to break the enemy, and it only takes more than a month to kill Liu Ze's piece of armor!" Ziyi, miss you and my classmates, don't say I didn't remind you, under the nest, An has finished his eggs, you follow Liu Ze, but I'm afraid that it will be the same ashes, it is better to stay in Jiangdong, with your talent, it will be reused by Wu Hou. β
Jiang Gan couldn't help crying and laughing, thinking that this time he crossed the river to persuade Zhou Yu to surrender, but now he was persuaded to surrender, what is this, and then he said with a sigh: "The little brother's family is in Jingzhou, even if you come to vote, you have to let me clean up." β
Zhou Yu didn't force it, waved his hand and said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, so I won't be reluctant. β
At this time, the Chinese army came over and said, "Governor Qi, Mr. Jiang's camp has been cleaned up." β
Zhou Yu glared at him and said: "A certain and Ziyi are more than siblings, and they often sleep together when they are in Shu County. β
The Chinese army did not dare to say anything more and retreated. Zhou Yu took Jiang Gan's hand and entered his sleeping tent together. Zhou Yu was so drunk that there was still the possibility of talking with Jiang Gan at night, and as soon as he entered the camp, he fell asleep on the couch.
Jiang Gan also lay down, but he turned to his side and couldn't sleep. The butter lamp in the tent was almost exhausted, emitting a faint faint light that flickered and dimmed, Jiang Gan could hear the sound of bangzi outside, it was already the middle of the night, and Zhou Yu was snoring like thunder on the couch.
"Brother Gongjin...... Brother Gongjin ......" Jiang Gan called a few words gently, Zhou Yu didn't realize it, so Jiang Gan tiptoed to the couch, and saw a few volumes of documents scattered on the side of the couch, Jiang Gan said in his heart, this persuasion of Zhou Yu was unsuccessful, it is really not good to go back and explain to King Jing, these volumes of documents may have the military deployment and action plan of the Jiangdong Army, if you can peek into some valuable military information, it is not worth the trip.
In the dim light, Jiang Gan quietly flipped through these documents and looked at a few, Jiang Gan was very disappointed, these are ordinary correspondence, there is no top-secret military intelligence at all, but Jiang Gan is still very unwilling, while looking at Zhou Yu while peeking, when he turned to the last few pages, Jiang Gan actually found that there was a letter written by Cai Mao.
This letter is very long, but aside from those red tape and polite words, the content is simple and clear, Cai Mao mentioned in the letter that Liu Ze is powerful, forced to surrender to him, and now wants to lead the old department of Jingzhou to surrender to Eastern Wu, please Zhou Yu to make an appointment, and the inside and outside should be together, and the head of Liu Thief will be beheaded.
Jiang Gan secretly thought: "It turns out that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun secretly connected Jiangdong, this letter is evidence, and it will be a miracle to return to King Jing tomorrow." So he hid the letter in his clothes, and just wanted to look through it to see if there was anything else of value, but Zhou Yu smiled behind him and shouted: "Ziyi, the good things you have done-"
Jiang Gan was so frightened that his soul did not possess his body, he knelt down in front of the couch and begged for mercy, but after a long time, there was no movement, Jiang Gan looked up, Zhou Yu was still snoring and did not wake up, daring to love that Zhou Yu was talking in a dream, Jiang Gan pressed the little heart that was about to jump out, calmed down, got up from the ground, and returned to the couch.
At this time, Zhou Yu shouted again: "Ziyi! Within a few days, I will let you see Liu Zezhi's head! β
Jiang Gan answered vaguely, and when he spoke again, Zhou Yu's snoring was still there. Jiang Gan carried Cai Mao's letter in his arms, as heavy as a thousand jun, how could he sleep, while thinking that Liu Ze would definitely reward him for this letter, but on the other hand, he thought that Zhou Yu was still a fine person, and he couldn't find a book after dawn, how could he spare him, Jiang Gan thought left and right, both happy and worried, and he couldn't sleep all night, and finally made up his mind that such a wealth could not be abandoned, and decided to take advantage of Zhou Yu's drunkenness and not waking up, and immediately said goodbye, and when Zhou Yu woke up, he found that the letter was stolen, and he had already fluttered across the Jiangbei.
The Lord made up his mind, got up quietly, dressed neatly, and called softly: "Brother Gongjin, Brother Gongjin." β
Zhou Yu half-opened his eyes in a daze, obviously he was very drunk last night, and he hadn't fully woken up yet. "What's the matter with Ziyi?"
"Thank you Brother Gongjin for your hospitality, don't dare to bother more, I will leave, and there will be a period later."
"Good...... Good...... There will be a period later......" Zhou Yu responded vaguely, and fell asleep again.
Jiang Gan secretly rejoiced, sneaked out of the tent, and as soon as he opened the tent, he collided with the oncoming Lu Su.
Lu Su knew that Zhou Yu was drunk last night, and he was not very relieved, so he rushed to Zhou Yu's tent to say hello as soon as it was dawn, and unfortunately bumped into Jiang Gan who was just about to leave the account, Lu Su looked at Jiang Gan vigilantly, and said, "Where is Mr. Jiang going?" β
Jiang Gan thought that if he quit Zhou Yu, he would be able to slip away unconsciously, but he bumped into Lu Su before he went out, and he was so scared that he was going to die, but he could only say calmly: "I am just here to catch up with Gong Jin, and seeing that Gong Jin's military affairs are so busy, I don't dare to bother more, and I will retire and see you in the future." β
Lu Suhu said suspiciously: "Even if Mr. Jiang wants to leave, he is not in a hurry, and when the governor wakes up, it is not too late to leave." β
Jiang Gan dared to wait for Zhou Yu to wake up, and said in a panic: "Fang Cai has already resigned as the governor, and Jiang still has something to do, so he doesn't dare to delay more." β
The more Lu Su looked, the more wrong he became, the more anxious Jiang Gan was to leave, Lu Su was biased to block there and not let him go, so anxious that Jiang Gan's brain sweated for a while in the winter, and at this moment, Zhou Yu turned over and muttered: "Ziyi is good...... Don't go far to ......"
Since Zhou Yu said so, Lu Su couldn't stand in the way anymore, Jiang Gan breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly made a move, and left in a hurry, went straight to the river, and left by boat. (To be continued......)
