Chapter 21: Identity
The history of the previous life has become an established fact, and Xu Yu can't change anything, but in this life he has the opportunity to change the future. Naturally, give it a try.
So he pretended to be moved by Dong Li's words. The very interested Dong Li discussed.
However, it is a pity.
Although Dong Zhuo is Dong Zhuo's nominal son, he has no rights in Dong Mansion because he is not close to Dong Zhuo and his own mother died in childbirth.
Although Dong Li also has the care of the old lady in the Dong Mansion, the old lady uses Dong Li as a strange soldier, and has been letting people teach Dong Li the art of martial arts.
The plan was stillborn before it even started, and both of them were a little helpless.
Of course, Xu Yu is pretending. His goal is only to blend in with Dong Yan for the time being, so as to facilitate the completion of the task.
"That's right."
Dong Li suddenly clapped his hands and said.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Yu was taken aback.
"Lu Qi was sent out by me on an errand, and it is estimated that she will be back soon. You just showed up in my yard so quietly. It's going to make people suspicious. ”
Dong Yan opened his mouth, standing up and walking back and forth as he spoke, looking very anxious.
As I said before, modern times have modern systems, and ancient times also have ancient systems. If Xu Yu appeared outside and was brought into the mansion by Dong Li, it would naturally be nothing, but now he appeared directly in Dong Li's courtyard.
Although this can safely gain Dong Li's trust, it also creates a shortcoming. The question of Xu's identity.
You must know that Dong Zhuo, including his wife, is not a good person, a person who suddenly appeared in his house without being informed. So, who is it? Thief? Thieves?
The key is that Xu Yu's identity can't be said yet, because this is a secret between the two.
Seeing that Dong Li was so anxious, Xu Yu didn't care very much. casually said:
"What are you afraid of, let's just sneak out later."
"You. I really thought it was still modern. The Dong Mansion is so heavily guarded, don't say you want to sneak out. Even if I wanted to go out, I had to ask for this and that. ”
Dong Yan poked Xu Yu and said helplessly.
"Huh? Is it so troublesome? ”
Xu Yu was also stunned, he never felt that it was difficult to run out of the Dong Mansion, but he ignored that this was after all the Taishou Mansion of the Shepherd Guard, and there were not only many private soldiers in the Mansion, but even the guards were not a few.
"No, I'll have to take you out before Lu Qi comes back. Otherwise, it won't be easy to explain when she returns. ”
Dong Yu said anxiously.
"Well, what then. You can't fly out. ”
Xu Yu said helplessly, how can it be so difficult to wear it.
Dong Yan suddenly paused and looked at Xu Yu carefully. Said helplessly:
"That's all there is to it, I'll call two guards in a moment. Pretend to be sick and let them go out to grab medicine with their faces covered, and then I'll knock one of them out and go out with you. Tomorrow I told my grandmother that I was looking for a scholar, and I went out and met you. Look at how it goes. ”
"Okay."
Xu Yu naturally couldn't ask for it. By Dong Li's side, you can learn the characters of this era with him, and you can also enhance your relationship and prepare for the future. And Dong Li's five poultry plays and Fubo hammer method can also be learned by a way.
You must know that Dong Yan relied on his talented body and the refining of the five bird plays, and the moves of the Fubo Hammer Method could be invincible in the world, defeating Lu Bu and becoming the number one military general in the world.
If Xu Yu gets it, let's not talk about anything else. Even his small body of bean sprouts can also be more secure, after all, when he traveled in his previous life, he remembered that the system once said that the reason why he traveled back to 2010 was mainly because his health was too poor, and the newbie package reversed time and space, allowing Xu Yu to be reborn and return to a young and healthy body.
With their decision in mind, the two began to prepare.
Although Dong Li's reputation in the Dong Mansion is not very good, the guards who were sent to take care of Dong Li all know that Dong Li is usually very kind. So after hearing that Dong Li was sick, he hurried over, so that the guards with scarves did not suspect anything.
Dong Li still has this right, and the guards just wonder why Dong Li went with him to grab the medicine.
However, since Dong Li made a decision, they didn't dare to question it. Just followed Dong Li, and when there were other guards on the road who asked, they were also sent away, and when they saw that they were about to leave the Dong Mansion, Xu Yu and Dong Yan glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, there are many people who have to be interrogated in the middle, and it would be very embarrassing if someone came up to inspect it, or let the guards take off their veils.
Fortunately, Dong Li's aftermath of killing people at the age of seven is still there, and the other guards of the Dong Mansion know his ability and temper. I didn't dare to embarrass Dong Li on top of these trivial things.
Out of Dong's mansion, Dong Yan said:
"You guys go back first. I'll just take him with me. ”
Dong Yan pointed at Xu Yu as he spoke.
"Yes, young master."
Although the guards were strange, they still went back very obediently. They didn't think that anyone was rushing to embarrass the people of the Dong Mansion in Lintao City.
"Let's go, I'll find you a place to live first."
Dong Li's guards walked away and spoke.
Xu Yu didn't speak, just silently followed behind Dong Li.
To be honest, he himself was a little shocked just now. When I watched TV dramas in my previous life, I could always find that it was where the big officials lived or where the emperor lived. Those killer assassins can always do whatever they want to do as if they were on the ground.
Because of these, Xu Yu subconsciously did not have a concept of the defense in the Dong Mansion.
But just now, all the way, under his observation, there were no less than 100 open and secret sentinels in the Dong Mansion, and they were all equipped with bows and crossbows and other weapons. There are many other patrols and gatekeepers. If an unwitting assassin breaks in, there is definitely no life or death.
It is no wonder that in the original book of the previous life, the Dong Mansion was surrounded by tens of thousands of yellow scarves, and the old lady did not change her face. That's one reason.
Xu Yu couldn't help but silently raise the danger of the scholars by a few notches in his heart.
"What's wrong with you?"
Dong Yan saw that Xu Yu was not interested, and hurriedly asked.
"It's nothing, it's just a little unpleasant." Xu said in vain.
"Why, aren't you happy to pretend to be my guard?" Dong Yan asked, thinking that Xu Yu couldn't adapt to his current identity.
"No, I know about the history of the Three Kingdoms. The rise of the Dong family has only been a few decades, and it has such a foundation. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu of the Fourth and Third Dukes of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Biao, Liu Yan and other scholars who belonged to the royal family, I don't know how many hidden hole cards they have. ”
"Oh, that's what you're talking about." Dong Yan understood in seconds, knowing that Xu Yu was starting to shake his confidence again, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"Why, isn't that enough?" Xu Yu said speechlessly.
"You think too much, this is Xiliang, which belongs to the border land, and there are often wars, after all, the Dong family has risen by military merits, and it is normal to have more guards, if you go to Luoyang and other places. You'll find out that this doesn't happen in those places. ”
Dong Li explained.
"Well, yes. However, the scholars should not be underestimated. I read an article analyzing the Han family, which said that the Three Kingdoms have a total population of 60 million, and this is only a superficial statistics. Many of the domestic slaves, servants, and private soldiers of the scholars were not included in the population, and if these were added, the population would have to increase a lot. Therefore, we should not underestimate the heritage of the scholars. ”
Xu Yu hurriedly said, deliberately expressing the emotions of teenagers in three minutes of heat to the fullest.
"Yes. You have a lot of research on the Three Kingdoms. ”
Dong Yan said casually.
"It's not very researched, but I like the history of this era and learn a little more."
Xu said modestly.
Dong Yan glanced at Xu Yu and didn't say much. silently took the lead in the front, but he wrote this down in his heart.
