Chapter 63: A Sense of Déjà vu

Leave Mrs. Gan?

Liu Chuang couldn't help but reach out and rub his little head, a little unsure of what was going on in this little head.

Mrs. Gan is married to Liu Bei Mingmei, how can she stay?

Unless Liu Bei is dead, Mrs. Gan is destined to be Liu Bei's woman. If Liu Chuang left Mrs. Gan, this reputation would not be good at all. Besides, what does Mrs. Gan have to do with herself? It doesn't seem interesting to keep her.

"Big Bear, I just think Sister Gan is so pitiful."

"How?"

"You see that Sister Gan has been invited by us for so long, and that Liu Bei didn't say anything at all.

Fighting and killing all day long, calculating and calculating, where do you take Sister Gan to heart? I think that Sister Gan will definitely not have a good result by following him. Sister Gan has always taken good care of me, but now she is alone, and I really don't feel at ease to send her back to Liu Bei. ”

"That's what Madame Gan told you to say?"

"It's not!"

Lu Zhen shook her head and pouted: "She didn't say anything, but I know that she is not happy in her heart and does not want to return to Liu Bei." ”

Liu Chuang smiled bitterly and hugged the elk in his arms, "This kind of thing, we can't interfere."

Mrs. Gan may be unhappy for other reasons, but I believe that it is impossible not to want to go back. After all, she is Liu Bei's wife, and this is a destined thing, even if we want to help her, I'm afraid we are powerless. It's really not good, when we go back to Yingchuan, you and her will be godsisters. In this way, you can also have a ...... to rely on I'm afraid I'm really powerless about other things. ”

Actually, Elk didn't know that this matter was a bit embarrassing for Liu Chuang.

But she really doesn't like Liu Bei!

During this time, when I was with Mrs. Gan. Occasionally, he would say some private words about women, and sometimes he would talk about that embarrassing thing, and some of Liu Bei's hobbies were inadvertently exposed by Mrs. Gan. This further deepened Elk's dislike for him.

She wanted to help Mrs. Gan, but she didn't know how to help.

After listening to Liu Chuang's words, she nodded a little reluctantly, and reluctantly stopped persuading.

I can't let Sister Gan go back, otherwise I don't know how to be tortured by that Liu Xuande...... The two brothers are really. How did you find such a person?

She sighed softly and snuggled into Liu Chuang's arms.

Come to think of it, it's still the best big bear!

At least he's considerate, not at all like the men, who treat women as goods.

In retrospect. I was glad I was so determined that I was there. If she had been a little shaken at that time, I am afraid that things would have taken a different shape. Well, Big Bear is good at everything, but sometimes, it's too wooden.

Liu Yong took Zhang Cheng, Zhang Chao, and Li Lun to Yingchuan that night. Contact Zhong Xuan.

Liu Chuang sent Lu Dai to Ruyin to contact Ruyin County.

He stayed in the mountains, waiting for a reply from Ruyin County and news from Huang Shao. Waited all day. Huang Shao is back!

However, he did not bring the nearly 1,000 yellow scarves he said, only more than 100 ragged and yellow-skinned. A person who looked more wolf than a beggar appeared in front of Liu Chuang. Huang Shao. With an embarrassed look, standing in front of Liu Chuang was a little at a loss.

Among the more than 100 beggars, there are more than 30 women, and the rest are old and young.

Liu Chuang ordered people to prepare meals, and these people gathered around and gobbled them up.

"Lao Huang, what's going on?"

Huang Shao looked very ashamed, lowered his head, and said softly for a long time: "In the village, something happened!" ”

"Huh?"

"Lao Huang, what's wrong, you should explain it a little bit."

Huang Shao showed a bitter smile, "There were originally more than 5,000 people under my command, all gathered in the mountains and wilderness.

At the beginning of the year, the He Yi and He Man brothers raised troops to attack Yingchuan, and under the pretext that I did not come back, they forcibly annexed most of my soldiers and horses...... Fortunately, one of my old brothers refused to bow his head, and finally more than 800 people were retained. I was not there, people's hearts were scattered, and everyone else followed He Yi and He Man. Later, Cao Cao defeated He Yi and He Man, and the two were also killed by Cao Cao, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were captured by Cao Cao.

When my old brother saw that the shape was not good, he took the people and hid in the mountains.

Originally, after entering the mountain, it was safe...... But at the beginning, after He Yi and He Man and my soldiers and horses, they also took away most of the grain and grass in the cottage.

My brother saw that the group couldn't hold on, so he prepared to go down the mountain and rob the road.

I didn't want to be ambushed, so that most of the people were captured by Ruyin County, and my old brother with a group of cronies is now missing.

There are now these old, weak, sick and disabled people left in the cottage, and I really can't bear to leave them behind, so I have the courage to bring them and ask my son to take them in. I think, after the son returns to Yingchuan, there will always be some people at home who will serve. Until now, only Xiaodouzi has served alone, which is really a bit shabby. You see, the women are pretty good, they're quick-handed, and they're pretty reliable......

Childe, please be merciful and leave them behind, otherwise they will only die. ”

In the troubled times, the ending of the old and weak women and children can be guessed almost without thinking.

Without the protection of young adults, most of their endings will be very bleak, and being able to expose corpses to the wilderness is even a kind of happiness. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, cannibalism was not an empty phrase. Thinking that Cao Cao used troops against Xuzhou, Cheng Yu once made human flesh into dried meat as dry food. It is said that there are many people who have been made into dried meat alive.

Liu Chuang looked at these old and weak women and children, and couldn't help but feel pity.

Although compassion is the least valuable in these years, for him, a person who has traveled from the afterlife, how can he watch these living people become rations in his mouth. If he refuses to take them in, I think these people have no choice but to die.

Liu Chuang sighed, "Since that's the case, let's leave them behind."

After filling their stomachs later, give them a bath, change into clean clothes, and stay in your baggage camp to do some chores. ”

Huang Shao was immediately overjoyed, thanked Liu Chuang again and again, and then bowed and retreated.

"I didn't expect Lao Huang to have such a bodhisattva heart."

Liu Chuang turned around and said to the elk with a smile, how do you know that the elk is good. Xiaodouzi, including Mrs. Gan, had red eyes, but she was at a loss.

"Meng Yan, what is the bodhisattva's heart?"

Liu Chuang suddenly remembered that although Buddhism has been known to many people since the Han Ming Emperor Baima crossed to the east. But the word bodhisattva has not yet appeared, so elk and others don't understand.

Speak later. But be more careful, so as not to cause misunderstandings.

Liu Chuang smiled slightly, "That's what it means to be kind-hearted...... Okay, I still have something to do here, what's the problem. You and Lao Huang consult. ”

After that, Liu Chuang wolf bèi and left.

But he didn't notice that behind him, Mrs. Gan's eyes showed admiration and saw him leave.

"Don't eat me, don't eat me!"

Elk and the others were about to leave, when they heard a boy crying.

Originally. When Huang Shao asked everyone to wash their bodies and prepare to change their clothes, a young man about eleven or twelve years old suddenly broke free from the elder's hand. Crying loudly and running out. His face was dirty, and his clothes were already in tatters.

Barefoot, with blood stains all over his feet.

When he saw Elk and the others, he seemed to see hope. Staggered over, stumbling under his feet. Plop and fall to the ground.

"Zhuo Ying, what are you doing?"

An old man shouted loudly and ran with a look of panic on his face.

The young man hugged Mrs. Gan's legs, like a drowning man holding a life-saving rope, "Auntie save me, auntie save me...... I don't want to be eaten by them, auntie help me. ”

Mrs. Gan was about twenty years old, and she was hugged by the young man's legs, and her face was suddenly flushed.

However, she still stopped the old man who had caught up, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Madame, don't listen to his nonsense, just now Huang Gong instructed us to wash our bodies so that we can change our clothes.

The kid was stupid and thought we were going to eat him, so, so ...... Please spare his life, he is just ignorant. ”

Over there, Huang Shao also ran over with someone, and when he saw this scene, he was stunned.

"What's going on?"

He asked.

But I heard Mrs. Gan say: "Mr. Huang, it's okay, this kid is just frightened, don't scare him, go and get busy with your business first." ”

Although Mrs. Gan was a captive, no one embarrassed her because of the relationship between the elk.

Huang Shao scratched his head a little embarrassed, and glared at the old man viciously, "If you can't do anything well, if you anger the son, everyone will be in trouble." Hurry back to do things, make it clear to everyone, don't make trouble again, otherwise you will definitely look good. ”

The old man, Vivi Shino, took the people with him.

But Huang Shao didn't dare to leave, he was afraid that this young man would make trouble, and he would not be able to explain it to Liu Chuang.

Actually, he knows it very well.

In the past, there have been cases of children cooking in the cottage...... No way, a bunch of old and weak women and children, what else can they do?

Mrs. Gan squatted down, not caring about the dirty hair of the young man, and stretched out her hand to caress the young man's head.

"Don't worry, they don't mean to harm you, they just let you wash and change into new clothes."

The boy looked up, shocked.

But looking at Mrs. Gan's smile, he finally stabilized his mind.

"Auntie, aren't they really trying to harm me?"

"Of course not...... In the future, you don't have to worry about someone harming you, and you don't have to be afraid of not having enough to eat......"

For some reason, looking at this dirty teenager, Mrs. Gan suddenly gave birth to a kind of maternal care, and couldn't help asking, "What's your name." ”

"My name is Zhuo Ying!"

"Where's your father?"

"Daddy, it's gone......"

Another wretched worm! Madame Gan couldn't help but sigh softly.

She raised her head, looked at Huang Shao and said, "Mr. Huang, I want to keep him with me, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

"This ......"

Huang Shao hesitated a little and looked at Elk.

Elk said, "Since Sister Gan wants to keep him, let's stay." ”

Now that Elk has opened his mouth, Huang Shao can't say anything more. However, he still decided to go back and explain to Xue Wen, so as not to cause trouble for this kid.

Mrs. Gan's mood suddenly became much better.

She took the boy by the hand and asked him to wash and change his clothes.

"Sister Gan, what are you doing with this kid?"

Mrs. Gan said softly: "I originally had a nephew, and if I lived until now, I am afraid that he would be the same age as him." I don't know why. When I see him, I think of my nephew. ”

"I see!"

Elk looked at the back of Zhuo Ying, and let out a faint sigh.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Step back, come back quickly.

On the third day after Huang Shao's return, he rushed back from Ruyin.

"The Ruyin County Decree has already agreed to our excuse...... Chen County Decree also said that a banquet would be held in the county government and invited Gongzi to lead people there. ”

"Oh?"

Liu Chuang heard it and felt very happy.

It's been days in the mountains. I'm getting a little impatient.

Since the Ruyin County Decree expressed its willingness to accept it, the province continued to hide in the mountains.

Liu Chuang immediately gave the order, and the soldiers pulled out of the mountain.

So, 1,400 people, plus nearly 30 baggage trucks. He drove out of the mountains and drove in the direction of Ruyin County.

The county magistrate of Ruyin County, named Zhu Cheng, is about thirty years old.

He is about 178 cm tall, not too fat, and his cheeks are thin, revealing a shrewd and capable atmosphere.

"Wen Gongzi raised his troops to vote. I was delighted.

The county has sent people to Xu Du to report to Cao Gong, and I believe that news will come soon. Please rest here with peace of mind...... However, Ruyin City is small, and I am afraid that it will not be able to accommodate the many parts of Childe. I have ordered a camp to be prepared outside the city. Please forgive me. ”

When Zhu Cheng spoke, he was polite and polite, which made people feel good.

Liu Chuang was also able to understand his thoughts.

If it were him, he would have seen more than a thousand people come to the city. I'm afraid I don't dare to accept it rashly. Moreover, as Zhu Cheng said. The pattern of Ruyin City is indeed not too big. Looking at its scale, it will not be too different from Huaiyin County, at most it is one or two points larger than Huaiyin.

It is indeed difficult to arrange more than 1,000 soldiers and horses at once.

"I'm waiting for a long way to come, there are a lot of disturbances, it's enough to get a safe place, how dare I ask for extravagance?"

"Hehe, that's not really."

Zhu Cheng said with a smile: "It is true that there are not enough soldiers and horses in the city, but the county has ordered someone to clean the post house, and the son can rest in the city." ”

"That's it!"

Liu Chuang thought about it, then nodded in agreement.

"Ziyi, you, Uncle Hai and Mr. Lu are camping outside the city.

I took Wen Xiang and Yuan Shao and led the cavalry into the city...... If there is anything you need, let people know with me, and I will try to ask Zhu Xianling for help. ”

Tai Shi Ci and Guan Hai glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.

Liu Chuang gave a few more commands, then ordered someone to escort the chariot, and slowly entered the county seat with Zhu Cheng.

This Zhu County Order was very enthusiastic and talked endlessly along the way.

After settling down in the post house, he invited Liu Chuang to the county government for a banquet.

Liu Chuang couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

At this time, it was not early, Liu Chuang asked Xu Sheng and Pei Shao to be in charge of the guards in the post house, and then took Huang Shao and prepared to go to the banquet.

Who knows, halfway through, Huang Shao suddenly remembered something.

"Childe, I forgot something in the car, go back and get it first."

"Is it important?"

"It was an item left by my deceased wife, and I always wear it with me...... I was in such a hurry that I landed in the car. ”

Huang Shao married a wife and started a family in his early years, but later his family fell into the middle of the road and his wife died of illness.

Huang Shao misses his deceased wife a lot, so he carries a hairpin left by his deceased wife with him, even more important than his own life.

This is also a person with affection and righteousness!

Liu Chuang muttered in his heart, but did not stop him, but let Huang Shao go.

Huang Shao hurried back to the post house and went straight to the stable.

The carriage was still outside the stable, and he jumped into it, got inside, found a palm-sized red sachet in the corner, let out a sigh of relief, put it close to him, and got out of it again. At this time, a groom came out of the stable. He is not too tall, that is, about 175 cm, with a long black face, stiff hair, and a great description.

In his hand, he dragged a guillotine, dressed in a gray sloop, and tied a palm-wide belt around his waist.

When he saw Huang Shao, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately showed a look of surprise.

However, Huang Shao had his back to him, so he didn't pay attention. He retrieved the hairpin and put his mind at ease. I was ready to rush to the county government to accompany me.

At this moment, a deep voice with surprise suddenly came from behind him: "The person in front of you, but Huang Gongmei?" ”

Gongmei is the expression of Huang Shao.

There is a record in "Xiao Erya": Shao, Meiye.

However, Huang Shao has not used his watch for many years, and except for a few cronies around him, no one knows that his name is Huang Gongmei.

Therefore, when he heard this familiar name, Huang Shao was a chilling cicada.

He jerked back. Following the sound, I heard a clang, and the guillotine in the black-faced man's hand fell to the ground at once.

"Huang Gong, is it really you?"

"Yuanfu?"

Huang Shao was also taken aback after seeing the appearance of the black-faced man clearly.

He took two quick steps. Coming to the big man, "Why are you here?" I was in the village a few days ago, and I only saw some old and weak women and children over there. They say you're gone, and others say you're dead...... How did you come here and work in the inn? ”

The black-faced man was very excited, and tears flashed in his tiger eyes.

"I got the news from Huang Gong at the beginning. Just ready to return to the cottage.

But the He Yi and He Man brothers deceived the door and forcibly took away...... I tried my best to stop it, but Huang Gong was not there, so those people wanted to change their faces. Find another way. In desperation, I had to take the rest of the people back to the cottage, but the food and grass in the village were exhausted, so I had to take everyone to find a way out...... 1 month ago. We were ambushed outside the city of Shenxian and almost completely annihilated.

Many of the brothers were sent to Ruyin for detention. I infiltrated the city with dozens of my remaining brothers and tried to rob the prison......

But the city was too well guarded, and I never found a chance. So I told everyone to disperse and find some work in the city, while I mixed into the inn and worked as a groom here. By the way, Huang Gong, when did you come back? Why does it appear in this Ruyin county? ”

When Huang Shao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

He said softly, "I'm coming with my son." ”

"Is that the son of the Marquis of Zhongling that you mentioned in your letter?"

"Exactly."

The black-faced man couldn't help but ask, "What about that person?" actually made Huang Gong, you abandon your home? ”

Huang Shao smiled slightly, "Childe is far-sighted, he expected that He Yi and He Man would not be Cao Cao's opponents, so he persuaded me to stay."

I wanted to find a way out for everyone, but I didn't expect ......

By the way, you go and gather people, and you say don't worry. Later, I will go to the county office, explain the situation to Gongzi, and then ask Gongzi to intercede. If you want to come to this Ruyin County Order, you will sell your son a face. When everyone comes out, let's follow Childe and leave.

I have been to the cottage and brought all the people out of the village, and now I am in the barracks outside the city. ”

I thought that the black-faced man would be very happy.

Who knew that after hearing this, the black-faced man frowned.

"Are you saying that the Ruyin dog official who invited a banquet in the county government today is the son of the Marquis of Zhongling that you said?"

"yes."

The black-faced man's face suddenly showed a sneer.

"If that's the case, I think Huang Gong, you better not go."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I noticed today that there is a very high movement of troops and horses in the city.

Do you know that there are at least 300 patrols in ambush in the county office. The others were all transferred to the city gates, ready to defend them.

In my opinion, the dog official did not want to hold a banquet, but wanted to kill the son of the Marquis of Zhongling.

Huang Gong, let's go quickly...... You leave now, and there is still a chance of life. If you leave late, I'm afraid you will have to worry about your life. ”

Huang Shao's face suddenly changed greatly, and his face was even more cloudy.

How so?

Good end, Zishan has already reported to Gongzi's family, why does the Ruyin County Order still frame Gongzi?

Could it be ...... Cao Cao didn't want Gongzi to go to Xudu? It seems that it shouldn't be, it stands to reason that Cao Cao still doesn't know the news of Gongzi's return to his hometown, how can he harm Gongzi's life?

"Huang Gong, without further ado, let's go."

Huang Shao looked at the black-faced man, and sighed softly after a while, "Yuanfu, where are we going?" ”

"Let's go into the mountains."

"Still robbing homes and houses like before, and being a thief for the rest of your life?

In the end, it is the same as Liu Pigong, and it is difficult to have a good result in the end...... Yuanfu, do you know why I chose to follow Liu Gongzi? Because he will never discriminate because you and I are from a yellow scarf. His uncle was the Qu Shuai Guan Hai who was in Qingzhou back then. Gongzi himself, although it is difficult to leave home since childhood, is after all a relative of the emperor and the only bloodline of Liu Tao and Liu Ziqi, Marquis of Zhongling.

I defected to him just to find a way out for everyone, not to die for the rest of my life, but also to bear the name of a bandit.

You and I can talk about it, but what about the children?

So, no matter what, I can't abandon my son at this time...... The old brothers outside the city had just eaten a full meal, full of hope for a stable life. This is our last chance, I can't leave, so I have to die with my son. ”

The black-faced man listened and fell silent.

After a while, he said softly: "Huang Gong, this Liu Gongzi, can you really not dislike our background?" ”

"Of course!"

"Do you think he can make a career?"

"Hehe, I believe that I won't choose the wrong ...... this time"

"Okay, I'll do it with you!" The black-faced man gritted his teeth and said viciously: "Since the Battle of Changshe, I have followed Huang Gong you, since Huang Gong has decided to gamble, how can I be left behind?" However, the outside of the post house has been monitored, and as long as there is the slightest abnormal movement, it will provoke a siege by soldiers and horses. Huang Gong had better think of a way to inform that Liu Gongzi as much as possible...... I went and gathered my men and set the granaries in the city on fire. When the time comes, the city will inevitably be chaotic, and everyone will take advantage of the situation, and maybe they will be able to save the situation. ”

Huang Shao nodded again and again, "Yuanfu, I have grown a lot." ”

He thought for a moment, took out a yellow headkerchief from his arms, and handed it to Zhou Cang.

"You find a credible person and let him go out of the city to find General Guan Hai...... Tell him about the situation in the city, and he will have a plan. ”

"Good!"

"Then let's go our separate ways, everyone's future is gambling on tonight, I will go to Wen Xiang to discuss, and then go to the county government to accompany the son."
