477 Deathbed trust
It stands to reason that the sister-in-law has a new funeral, and Wang Baoyu, the little brother, should go to worship, however, there has been no movement in Nanjun, Liu Bei not only did not notify Wang Baoyu, nor even Guan Yu, but just had a decent funeral in Nanjun, and it was in a hurry.
This is very surprising, maybe in Liu Bei's heart, a daughter-in-law is nothing, just like clothes, she can change another one at any time. Mrs. Gan can be regarded as enjoying special treatment, because after all, she is the biological mother of her eldest son Liu Chan, which shows how low a woman's status is.
Wang Baoyu also understood why Cao Ren came to attack Yiling, he wanted to take advantage of Liu Bei's loss of his wife and had no time to take care of Yiling. The idea is good, but Cao Ren never expected that Sun Shangxiang would come here with the Shadow Sword King, of course, if there is no Liu Lian's appearance, I am afraid that what the situation of Yiling is now cannot be estimated.
Of course, Cao Ren didn't expect that Liu Bei seemed to be emotional, and Mrs. Gan was like a house, but her death had little impact on Liu Bei. Because after the funeral, Nanjun was as usual, even during the funeral, Liu Bei did not leave behind the work at hand, but there was a little less smile on his face.
Regarding Mrs. Gan's death, Wang Baoyu's heart was not too touched, after all, he and Mrs. Gan had only had a few encounters on the way to escape. Later, he married Liu Bei, but the women's Taoist family rarely showed up, and the chances of meeting could be counted on one hand.
However, Ma Liang, who had just returned from Nanjun, was a little hesitant every time he saw Wang Baoyu, and seemed to have something to say.
"Mr. Ma, do you have anything to report to me?" Wang Baoyu sat behind the desk and asked with a grin.
Ma Liang hesitated for a moment to make sure that there was no one around, and then he spoke: "Baoyu, before Mrs. Gan passed away, I was by her side, and she mentioned you. ”
"Oh! Thank you for remembering me, what did she say? Wang Baoyu was a little surprised.
"At that time, there was no one around, and Mrs. Gan asked me to convey that she had a last wish and wanted to ask you for something." Maleonn Road.
"The dead are greater, and I will try to help her do it." Wang Baoyu nodded happily.
"Baoyu is benevolent, no wonder the person Mrs. thought of entrusting before she died." Ma Liang first praised one, and then said: "Mrs. Gan said that Liu Hui and Liu Fang grew up beside her, although they are not biological, they have always been known as mother and daughter. After the two daughters were robbed, Mrs. Gan was depressed, and often dreamed that the two daughters cried to her, and every time she woke up, she felt remorseful. When you go north to find your mother, if you have a chance, please visit the two daughters, if you can bring the two back, she can also look at the nine springs. ”
"Alas, what a good mother. However, it was not Mrs. Gan's fault that Liu Hui and Liu Fang were abducted at the beginning, and Mrs. Gan's mind was still too heavy. Wang Baoyu rubbed the wet corners of his eyes, nodded and said: "As for Madame's entrustment, I can only do my best, after all, the north is Cao Cao's territory, it is difficult to say whether it can be seen or not, and it is even more difficult to bring it back." It's better to go with the flow and leave it to fate. ”
Ma Liang nodded, and after explaining the affairs of the master's mother, the next thing to say is, of course, Liu Bei's request: "The lord has learned about the Peerless Sword King, and said that he has admired the Sword King for a long time and wants to see it." ”
"The Shadow Sword King was brought by the county lord, but the person is already dead, and the body has been brought back to Jiangdong." Wang Baoyu didn't hide it.
"Alas, what a pity." Ma Liang shook his head.
"A person like the Shadow Sword King is arrogant and uninhibited, he would rather bend than bend, and he will not be loyal to anyone if he is alive." Wang Baoyu hinted, and then advised: "You can reply to my eldest brother tactfully about this matter, and it is best not to mention that the county lord is here." ”
Ma Liang nodded, understood Wang Baoyu's intentions, and immediately drafted a document to report to Liu Bei, only saying that the Shadow Sword King had not stayed here, and after the First World War, he returned to his homeland.
Ma Liang's document is obviously a play on words and goes back to his homeland, but it can be understood as returning home, and it can also be understood as dead. Fortunately, Liu Bei also knew the maverick personality of the Shadow Sword King, and it was not easy to win over, so he did not delve into the matter.
In the blink of an eye, in the depths of winter, after Guan Ting escorted Sun Shangxiang back, she did not come back, but went back to Xiakou directly, and Wang Baoyu finally received a letter from Sun Shangxiang, but the content of the letter made him feel very uncomfortable.
The general meaning of Sun Shangxiang's letter is that Liu Lian has always been a servant by his side, and he rarely looks at him squarely. I didn't think that such a person came forward at a critical moment and tried his best to save himself. Liu Lian's death made her understand a lot of things, as if she grew up overnight, and the people who are most likely to ignore are the people around her. She hopes that Wang Baoyu can cherish the person in front of her, so as not to regret it like her, and hopes to become friends with Wang Baoyu, but she doesn't want to marry Wang Baoyu again.
Wang Baoyu took the letter, and felt sad for a while, he knew that Sun Shangxiang was not telling the truth, as for proposing to break up, Liu Lian was just an inducement, and there was another factor, that is, Guan Ting must have told her something on the way back to send Sun Shangxiang back, and she was also moved, which made her take the initiative to give up.
Because Sun Shangxiang has the same appearance and similar personality as Xia Yida, Wang Baoyu once mistakenly thought that she was Xia Yida, not only liked it very much, but even really moved the idea of marrying her.
However, Sun Shangxiang is only the county lord of Jiangdong, not Xia Yida, and she also has her own historical mission, that is, to marry Liu Bei, so as to consolidate the Sun-Liu alliance.
Wang Baoyu knew this historical fact for a long time, but he didn't want to think of it, if Sun Shangxiang was not such an acquaintance, and he still had a deep affection for himself, whether he married Liu Bei or not, and he had nothing to do with Mao. However, now if Sun Shangxiang is asked to marry Liu Bei again, it will make him very unhappy, and even very entangled and uncomfortable.
The wheel of history is rolling forward, the annual New Year is coming, on this day, a snow fell in the sky, one after another, turning a qiē into a blanket of silver, which is extraordinarily enchanting.
A team from Nanjun arrived at Yiling, and on the four-wheeled vehicle surrounded by soldiers sat a man in a white robe, wearing a scarf and a crane, with an indifferent appearance, it was Zhuge Liang.
Since coming to Yiling, the busy Zhuge Liang has not been here once, and the affairs between the two counties have relied on Ma Liang to go back and forth.
When Wang Baoyu heard that Zhuge Liang was coming, he was very happy and hurriedly walked out of the official residence.
For the changes in Yiling City, Zhuge Liang was very satisfied, and gave high praise, for the furnishings in the official residence, he did not raise any objections, he has long been accustomed to Wang Baoyu's maverick personality, if it is still the same as the original, then it is not Wang Baoyu.
