Chapter 1184 quietly went north, and people's hearts floated
Among the many speculations from the outside world, Diao Chan was anxiously waiting for Zhen Jiang's reply, the three women in the family had already been cleaned up, and the three women sat on the edge of Lu Bu's hospital bed, waiting silently, the emotions in their hearts seeped out unconsciously, and it seemed that even the air in the room seemed a little anxious and depressed.
'Prala'
The sound of the pigeon's wings attracted the three pairs of eyes, and the sable cicada jumped up dexterously, and a wisp of green smoke appeared by the window, reached out and grabbed the white dove with gray spots on its body, and quickly removed a slightly larger letterhead bound to its feet.
Lu Ling chased after her, looking very nervously at Diao Chan who had unfolded a thin letter paper to read, Yan Shi also came over at some point, staring at Diao Chan's face nervously, for fear of a bad news popping out of her mouth.
"Sister" Diao Chan raised her head with a happy face: "Mrs. Zhen agreed to help, and Mrs. Zhen said that she would arrange and schedule, and also said"
"What else?"
"He also said that things were not as difficult as we thought, and told us to set off with Bong first as soon as possible."
"Auntie, is Mrs. Zhen credible? Will it be?"
For so many days, Diao Chan showed a rare smile, reached out and touched Lu Ling's head and said, "Mrs. Zhen is the most admirable woman I have ever seen, I believe in her1."
Yan nodded, not knowing whether to agree with Diao Chan's words, or to express his belief in Diao Chan's judgment: "Then what should we do now?" ”
Diao Chan turned his head and looked at Lu Bu who was lying on the bed and said, "Please come in, Lu Li and Lu Xi." Let them bring the carriage we usually take to the door of the dormitory, and beat all the irrelevant people out, and then we and Feng Xian are all crowded in the Zhen family business house in Luding Tao City, and they will arrange the rest. ”
Yan nodded without hesitation, and went out to greet Lu Bu's two personal guard leaders, while Lu Ling glanced at Diao Chan with some apprehension, Diao Chan glanced at her comfortingly and said, "Ling'er, come and help me put on your father's coat." ”
"Oh 1
The Yan family has always been very low-key, after Diao Chan married Lu Bu's family. I also stayed at home all day, and every time I went out, I drove the carriage into the inner house. Then go out strictly, go home strictly, although this kind of life is not what Diao Chan expects, but it is indeed quite peaceful.
Today is business as usual. Diao's carriage came out of the mansion. Then turn along the street to Xicheng, in the eyes of many people, the carriage arrived at the Zhen family firm, presumably to buy something, the Zhen family firm is the most complete goods in the capital, and there is a special place to entertain female guests, therefore, many powerful families in Beijing. also often comes to patronize the Zhen family firm like Diao Chan.
After staying for less than half an hour, Diao Chan's carriage came out of the trading house again. Under the escort of the personal guards, he returned to Lu Mansion along the way he came.
The next day, the caravan of the Zhen family firm set off as usual, transporting the goods and raw materials purchased by Dingtao to Puyang, and then boarding the ship from the dock in Puyang and sending them to the north.
The guards at the gate of the city checked it casually, and after carrying a heavy small bag in their pockets, the Zhen family's convoy went out of the city smoothly, and there were already players waiting for the task outside the city, they were responsible for the bodyguard tasks along the way, this kind of errand was a trip every other day, and at most there were some wild monsters and thieves along the way, the work was relatively easy, and the pay was good.
The person in charge of the Zhen family firm is obviously very familiar with those players, talking and laughing along the way like old friends, the team rested in Juyang for a night, and the next evening, the team arrived in Puyang, the team did not enter Puyang City, but went straight to the dock in the east of the city, and the two big boats were already waiting for the team.
Through the open porthole, Lu Ling could see the lights of the boat on the river, as well as the dark cliff banks and wilderness on both sides, the sound of rushing water in her ears, and the sound of babbling wood rubbing, the shaking feeling was very comfortable, like a baby's cradle.
'Tuk Tuk'
The gentle knock on the door startled Lu Ling, and her hand subconsciously stretched out towards the short knife in her arms, and her body moved towards the bed where her father was lying, Yan also put away the towel that was helping Lu Bu wipe his face, and looked at the cabin door in surprise, the flickering lights and shaking shadows in the cabin looked a little weird.
Diao Chan turned his head to look at the hatch and asked softly, "Who is it?" ”
"The most beautiful sister, I'm Xiangxiang, remember me, I remember your voice! Hee-hee. ”
"Xiangxiang!?" Diao Chan was surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the hatch, and there was standing outside the door, but it was the fragrance of two maidens with a smile like a flower.
"Why are you here?"
"Hehe, I learned about Sister Diao Chan and Brother Lu from my sister-in-law, so I took the post post to Puyang to wait for you1
Xiangxiang didn't need to be guided by Diao Chan, and jumped into the cabin by herself, which was very large in size and was obviously prepared for distinguished guests.
"This is Sister-in-law Lu, isn't this Lu Ling? How old is it? Looks smaller than me1
"Hehe, it's younger than you, a younger generation, I have to call you aunt."
"Don't, everyone pays their own, I'm not that old, how is Brother Lu?"
"You see, I'm still unconscious, it's really worrying"
Xiangxiang smiled at Lu Ling, stretched out her head to look at Lu Bu, shrank her head boringly, looked at Diao Chan and comforted: "It's okay, I'll wake up soon." ”
Xiangxiang hurried one sentence at a time, and finally stopped here, Diao Chan smiled and said: "Sit down, sister, Ling'er, this is Miss Xiangxiang, the sister of the general of Zhengbei." ”
Everyone saw each other again, Xiangxiang sat down, her eyes always swirling on the tall Lu Ling, and Lu Ling was a little embarrassed.
"Xiangxiang, is it safe here?"
Seeing Xiangxiang talking so loudly. Diao Chan asked with some reassurance.
"Safe, why not safe, this is a Navy ship. It's just that there is a temporary flag of a merchant ship, and there is a team of navy guards around, don't worry, no one can hurt you here. ”
Hearing this, Diao Chan and Yan glanced at each other, and the apprehension in their hearts in the past few days finally let go, and they couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Navy? It's a troll, right? "Lu Ling usually doesn't like needlework for female workers. Instead, he likes to play with knives and guns and war books, so he naturally wondered about Xiangxiang's slip of the tongue.
"Ling'er, the water army refers to the water force of inland river warfare. Navy refers to the water forces that operate on the sea, so this is the navy, yes. ”
"Oh."
Diao Chan glanced at Xiangxiang gratefully and said, "This is really too troublesome Sister Zhen Jiang." ”
"It's okay, sister-in-law and Sister Diao Chan are friends. My brother and Brother Lu are also friends. How can you not help with this favor, and you have to help to the end. ”
Diao Chan looked at Xiangxiang a little strangely and looked triumphant and full of mystery, is the meaning of helping in the end just the meaning that he understands?
The news in Dingtao City is getting more and more strange, there are rumors that Lu Bu has hung up, and soon Cao Cao and Liu Bei will rush to Dingtao to welcome the Son of Heaven, this Lu Bu's power is about to disappear, everyone should hurry up and find another way out.
The court ignored all kinds of rumors. only claimed that Lu Bu was still recovering from his injuries and could not play for the time being. He didn't say a word else, and the spies gathered around Lu Mansion had no way to confirm whether Lu Bu was dead or alive now.
Tie Jun is also indifferent about this, for Tie Jun, there is no loyalty to the imperial court, let alone loyalty to Lu Bu, everything is just an agreement, if the Dingtao court changes hands, it is okay for Tie Jun to find another master's house, and even self-reliance stove is not impossible, of course, the premise is to be able to stand up
However, it is still necessary to find out Lu Bu's life and death as soon as possible, as well as the whereabouts of the Dingtao Imperial Court.
"Tiger head, there is really no evidence at all, now that the Lu Mansion is closed, the only one who can come to the door is Wang Yun, and no one else will enter, it is impossible to know the situation."
"If you don't let you in, don't you come out, don't you have to buy ingredients and herbs?"
"No, they will be sent to the door of the Lu Mansion after they are decided, and entry and exit are all prohibited, and the precautions are very strict."
"It's really mysterious! However, Lu Bu should be famous in Valhalla, why can't he just bring Lu Bu back from the dead? ”
"We figured this out, and after buying off the ministers of the court, we determined that Lu Bu's name was not on Valhalla1
"What? How is this possible, is Xiao Tianzi so jealous of Lu Bu? ”
"Of course not, it's said that the name can't be retained."
"What does this wisdom mean?"
"Yes, Zhi Brain believes that Lu Bu is actually a warlord and the core leader of a faction, so he can't leave his name on Valhalla, in that case, there should be a backup means, doesn't it mean that the royal family has a backup means1
"You also said it, that's a royal method, I'm afraid Lu Bu won't be able to use it."
"So, Lu Bu is really in danger, in history, Lu Bu died six years later, right?"
"Well, but it's all messed up now, and Sun Ce and Dong Zhuo are ahead of schedule, but Zhang Jiao is jumping around, what's the use of saying this! Even if Lu Bu does not die, the surrounding situation is also extremely critical now, especially Han Sui and Cao Cao's side, Han Sui has no loyalty to Lu Bu at all, once he is bought and persuaded by Cao Cao, he may defect at any time, and the southern front, Cao Cao's offensive is getting stronger and stronger, and Pang Yuan is also difficult to support alone, if Han Sui defects and Liu Bei exerts his strength, Lu Bu's edifice will collapse overnight, unless he wakes up immediately, it will be too late 1
Song Hufeng paused for a moment, frowned and thought about it, sighed with emotion and said:
"Yes, although the body is not dead, the general trend is irreversible, it seems that we are also going to contact Liu Bei."
"Well, I thought so too." To be continued...
