192 The rooster cries in the morning
Among the people who went to Liu Bei, there was a person named Yi, a scholar, and his eloquence was also very good, he had known Liu Bei in the old days, and it was he who reported the news that day, so that Liu Bei could escape in time, cross Tanxi, and escape Cai Mao's pursuit.
As soon as he heard that Yi was coming, Liu Bei, who was dressed in heavy filial piety and had swollen eyes like walnuts, hurriedly ran out of the mourning hall, held Yi Yuan's hand tightly, and said tremblingly: "Mr. Yi, have you ever burned paper money in front of Jingzhou's grave on my behalf and kowtowed to say goodbye?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Yi's tears also fell, and he sighed: "I didn't say goodbye to my lord, this is a great regret in life!" ”
After saying that, the two were like brothers and sisters, and they hugged each other and cried, and they separated for a long time. Yi Ji wept again and said: "The young lord is young, and the Cai family covers the sky with one hand, which is very domineering, I really can't get used to it, so I come to run with a cheeky face, and I hope that Uncle Liu Huang will take it in." ”
Liu Bei held Yi's hand tightly, grinned and cried: "Mr. Yi, Mr. Bei Pan is coming, just like the seedlings who have been in drought for a long time are looking forward to the spring rain." ”
Yi was also deeply moved, immediately tidied up his clothes, and solemnly kowtowed: "Uncle Liu Huang attaches so much importance to love and righteousness, everyone in the world is eager to follow him, Yi is not talented, and he is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses!" ”
"Mr. Yi, please get up!"
"Lord!"
The people's hearts were gathered in this way, Liu Bei set up a banquet to entertain the guests from Xiangyang, and Liu Biao's exploits were counted during the banquet, and he couldn't say anything after choking up several times, which caused the people present to be moved for a while, and they couldn't stop crying.
After the dismissal, Liu Bei found Zhuge Liang, Wang Baoyu happened to be there, and he did not shy away from saying: "Military advisor, the person I am really waiting for has not yet come!" ”
"The lord must wait for Liu Qi's son!"
"If the military advisor is watching the fire, how can he let Liu Qi come?" Liu Bei asked.
"This matter is not difficult, Yi has a very close relationship with Liu Qi's son, just send him to Jiangxia as a lobbyist." Zhuge Liang said.
"If Liu Qi goes straight to Xiangyang, what should he do?"
"The lord doesn't have Liu Biao's suicide note here, and he can let the Yi family take it with him." Zhuge Liang said.
Liu Bei nodded, turned to leave, Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "The lord has not fully believed in me, so I have to ask." ”
"Didn't we talk about it just now, what's going on?" Wang Baoyu inquired.
"Baoyu, according to me, the lord has long planned for this matter, and he kept the suicide note and did not show it, just to make Liu Qi and Liu Cong brothers turn against each other, and then fight for Xiangyang soldiers and horses." Zhuge Liang said.
"Liu Qi and Liu Cong are brothers, blood is thicker than water, can they become enemies?"
"Liu Qi and Liu Cong have long been estranged."
"That's just Liu Qi's words, Liu Cong, this kid still respects his eldest brother."
"Since ancient times, the battle for the throne has never recognized relatives and alienation, not to mention that this abolishing the long and standing up for the young is really a way to take trouble, even if the two brothers were somewhat harmonious before, now they are afraid that they have torn their faces. It's a pity that Mrs. Cai is a woman, she doesn't know what to do, and she will not die well. Zhuge Liang said helplessly.
"If that's the case, how should my sister explain it?" Wang Baoyu asked, Mrs. Cai is Huang Yueying's aunt, and Cai Mao is also her uncle, and this relationship cannot be avoided.
"Alas, I am worried about this, my wife has been sad for days, and I don't think about tea and dinner, I am afraid that I will get sick." Zhuge Liang sighed again.
After Wang Baoyu came to the Three Kingdoms, the person with the deepest feelings was Huang Yueying, Huang Yueying was even better to him than her own sister, and she could be called the eldest sister like a mother. After hesitating for a moment, he finally made up his mind and said, "Sir, since this is the case, I will go to Xiangyang again and try to persuade Mrs. Cai to protect herself." ”
"Mrs. Cai's rooster is crowing in the morning, she is ambitious, how can she listen to you!"
"If you don't listen, it's better to give it a try, my sister values love and righteousness, if I am worried, I will have a bad conscience for the rest of my life."
"Baoyu ......" Zhuge Liang shouted, tears appeared in his eyes, and then waved his hand and said: "Xiangyang is in chaos, and Madam will not agree." ”
"Don't tell her yet, I'll leave right away." Wang Baoyu said.
"However, Xiangyang is under lockdown, how can you enter?" Zhuge Liang asked worriedly.
"Hehe, how did you forget, I have this." Wang Baoyu smiled and took out the token that Liu Cong gave him.
"In this case, go and return quickly, you just need to explain to Mrs. Cai that Jingzhou is connected to many places, surrounded by tigers and wolves, and it is categorically difficult to defend, don't be reckless, and find a way out as soon as possible." Zhuge Liang said.
"What is the way out for Mrs. Cai?" Wang Baoyu asked.
"Jingzhou can be dedicated to the lord, and the lord will treat her well regardless of his past suspicions." Zhuge Liang said.
"Alas, sir, I understand your kindness, but this matter is difficult to achieve, according to my calculations, Jingzhou will inevitably belong to Cao Cao." Wang Baoyu sighed and left.
"Will there be such a thing?" Zhuge Liang looked stunned.
"Go with the will of God!"
Wang Baoyu thought about it again and again, but decided not to take Fan Jinqiang with him, it was too eye-catching, and it was better to keep a low profile in this matter, so he did not ride a horse, crossed the river alone, and came to Xiangyang.
At the heavily guarded city gate, Wang Baoyu showed the token, which was not dared to be stopped by the soldiers who were young princes before, but now Liu Cong has become the pastor of Jingzhou with the support of Cai Mao and others, so he naturally swaggered into the city.
The once prosperous city of Xiangyang is now full of tension, with soldiers patrolling the streets from time to time, shops are closed, especially the mansions where the rich and powerful live, all of which are heavily guarded.
Wang Baoyu finally found a carriage and rushed to Liu Biao's former residence, but the coachman didn't speak all the way, let alone get too close to the door, and stopped after standing for more than half a mile.
Wang Baoyu could only go on foot, only to see dozens of soldiers standing in front of Liu Biao's house, and the door was full of all kinds of sacrificial supplies, which were whirring in the wind, and they looked quite terrible.
Wang Baoyu was just about to go in in a big way, when a soldier who looked like a leader immediately stepped forward and asked, "Who is coming?" ”
"Hehe, I'm Wang Ba Wang Baoyu is also!"
"Never heard of it!"
I damn it, the toad at the bottom of your well, how big the sky has you seen, Wang Baoyu was upset for a while, if it weren't for Zhuge Liang's repeated reminders not to be overly loud, his slap would have been slapped a long time ago, so he said patiently: "There are many people who don't know me, and I don't know you either." I'm here to do something, and I'm sorry to ask the little brother, I want to meet Liu Cong's son, and Mrs. Cai is okay. ”
Some people don't know how to lift, that is, the so-called kicking their noses in the face, and they stepped forward to push and shove, and said disdainfully: "The young master and the lady are so noble, how can anyone who wants to see them can see them." ”
"Open your dog's eyes and see, what is this?" Wang Baoyu was immediately annoyed, held up the token high, and then said: "Mrs. Cai is my aunt, and the young son is my younger brother, you dare to stop it, be careful of your head moving!" ”
