Volume 2 The Rise of Jingzhou Chapter 97 The Great General of the Guard, Gan Ning
"Something to say... Huh..."
Gan Ning looked at the young man in front of him, and couldn't help but let out a sneer, and then shook his head helplessly, "Brother Xian is really a straightforward person!" ”
"Brother Gan, since you and I are brothers, there is no need to be that little daughter.
I have heard for a long time that Brother Gan is a hero of Xichuan, and it was a famous place for Jingyi in Zonghengba County back then, since the kid is here today, he can't be coy, so that Brother Gan is bored! ”
"Hahaha..." Gan Ning couldn't help but laugh when he heard Liu Xie's words, but he still shook his head helplessly after laughing.
"Brother Gan, is it possible that Brother Gan still has any concerns?"
"Virtuous brother... Since you and I are brothers, then there are some things that can be said for brothers! At this time, Gan Ning looked directly at Liu Xie, with a somewhat serious expression.
"General Zuo is indeed a hero in the world, this time he marched into Huainan, exterminated Yuan Shu, swept away the Jianghuai thieves, pacified the people, and migrated to Runan... It's all about its power!
But... It's too late!
Even though General Zuo now has enough strength and ambition, he has no place to stand.
Now the imperial court occupies Chang'an, blockades the fortress of Tongguan Hangu, a tiger in the posture of Yongliang, Yuan Benchu occupies the land of the four states of Hebei, the soldiers are full of food, and the armor is hundreds of thousands.
He also destroyed Gongsun Zan in the Battle of Youzhou, and obtained a huge amount of 3 million grains!
(The Book of the Later Han Dynasty records that Gongsun Zhan hoarded 3 million grains, and then there was a famine in Youzhou in those years, and people cannibalized... Immediately, the hearts of the people were lost. )
Cao Mengde of the Central Plains occupies the three states of the Central Plains, with enough soldiers and food, hundreds of elite battles, countless fierce generals, and ministers like rain.
Even Liu Jingsheng, who has no eyes and no beads, has a hundred thousand, and Liu Jiyu, who is not virtuous, also has Xichuan natural insurance, and the Sun family also has a foothold in Jiangdong.
I don't know General Left ... How are you going to do it? ”
After Gan Ning finished speaking, he didn't wait for Liu Xie to answer, but poured himself a sip of wine, his expression seemed easy-going and natural, but he was full of helplessness and hesitation.
In his eyes, Liu Xuande's indulgence is the greatest sorrow in the world.
But Liu Xuan's is like this, why is he not like this?
In recent years, Xichuan chaos, Jingzhou fighting, Jiangdong chaos, Jianghuai death battle, Xuzhou slaughter... The names burst out with dazzling light on the battlefield and kept piercing his ears.
He once used to deduce back and forth on the map in the dead of night, holding a withered lamp and candle, and he felt that if he was deep in the battlefield, if he also had the opportunity to lead the troops to battle.
He certainly wouldn't be a fraction worse than these people, or even above them!
But this kind of thought has been recalled thousands of times in his heart, and he is just a blind thought, he has no way to appear on the battlefield, naturally... Ay!
Looking at the glass after glass of liquor drunk in his stomach, but the loneliness on his face was becoming more and more serious, Liu Xie seemed to be able to understand his helplessness and suffering.
also seems to be able to understand why he worked so hard after he defected to Sun Quan.
In addition to the grace of knowing the encounter, there is also Gan Ning's last desperate fight, he wants to prove himself to the world... Prove what you're capable of!
"Brother Gan... Gan Xingba! At this time, Liu Xie finally made a decision, he directly took the case, walked in front of Gan Ning and snatched his wine bottle, and then looked at the guy in front of him with straight eyes.
"Are you really going to be so depressed?"
“... Brother Xian Mo doesn't want to be a brother..."
"Bang!" Before Gan Ning's words were finished, Liu Xie directly threw over a bag he was carrying.
If it weren't for Gan Ning, who could be regarded as a long-fought general, it would have been directly slapped on his face at this time.
"What is this?" Gan Ning grabbed the bag in his hand with his backhand, feeling the heavy weight, he couldn't help but look a little weird, "Could it be that this is a portable treasure?" ”
"Brother Gan might as well open it and take a look, if Brother Gan likes it, you can also find a painter to come, let you live with it on the same picture scroll, and pass it on to future generations, or maybe bless Brother Gan's incense is prosperous!"
Gan Ning, who said Liu Xie's words, was slightly stunned, not understanding what this meant.
However, looking at the smile on Liu Xie's face, Gan Ning didn't find any reason for him to play with himself, he was quite bold, but he was not afraid, and directly dismantled the bag with three or two.
Then there was a small box with a rather beautiful shape...
"Brother Xian, your treasure is tightly covered, but the more you do this, the more you will be remembered by the thief, be careful that people will steal it... Ge Laozi! ”
Gan Ning, who was still smiling, flew up directly from his seat the moment he opened the wooden box, took three steps back and shouted, his face changed in an instant, and his whole person was soaked in cold sweat.
At that moment... Gan Ning sobered up.
At this time, in the small exquisite wooden box, there is a small but extraordinarily exquisite seal, the whole body is made of white jade, but this corner is inlaid with a piece of real gold.
And this seal is now placed on the side, and eight big characters can be faintly seen from the gap.
"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity"
Good guy, don't you want to take this thing out casually!
At this time, Gan Ning was covered in cold sweat, looking at the wooden box in front of him, and then looking at Liu Xie not far away, he felt that he was really trapped.
This Liu Bei, I'm afraid he is planning something great, he wants to learn Yuan Shu?
The more he thought about it, the more chaotic Gan Ning's heart became at this time, and his eyes kept vibrating, as if he was thinking about something.
In the end, Gan Ning looked at Liu Xie in front of him, and directly gritted his teeth and said softly.
"Today, Gan should have never seen it, and you and I have never met.
Gan fell in love with you, and since he is commensurate with your brother, he will not do anything to betray his friends and seek glory.
You put this thing away quickly, don't want it in the future... Don't show yourself in front of anyone again, or you'll bring disaster to your uncle and nephew!" ”
After Gan Ning finished speaking, he waved his hand again and again, looking unlucky, and his eyes refused to look at the jade seal of the country again.
And Gan Ning, who looked like this, made Liu Xie chuckle.
"Is there any misunderstanding in Xingba, this thing..."
"Could it be that Gan admitted that this thing was wrong?" At this time, Gan Ning sneered directly at Liu Xie, "Even if it's a copy... That's also a big reversal! ”
"It's not a copy, it's the thing in your mind... But you don't have to be so cautious, after all... This is what is going on! ”
"Don't talk nonsense..."
"Brother Gan!" Liu Xie directly interrupted Gan Ning's words, and then said solemnly: "General Zuo is the imperial uncle recognized by the imperial court, and in the next... Call General Zuo uncle!
Could it be that Brother Gan hasn't reacted yet? ”
At this time, Gan Ning blinked his eyes, and then shook his head directly after thinking about it for a long time.
He didn't understand, of course he didn't understand, isn't this Liu Bei's nephew, whether it is the son of Liu Bei's own brother, or the son who succeeded to Liu Bei's family, isn't this a descendant?
What? This guy called Uncle Liu is the emperor?
Nonsense! Monkey business! Pure pure put.. That filthy thing!
What emperor could follow the generals of almost one of the princes to the enemy's encirclement?
Looking for excitement?
Don't say that Gan Ning doesn't believe it, it's impossible for him to believe it personally!
Looking at Gan Ning's expression now, Liu Xie also knew that he couldn't say anything more, after all, this matter was as nonsense as in the later generations, proving that "my father is my father".
How to prove one's identity is a question that has never had the right answer for centuries.
However, it is not impossible.
"Brother Gan, do you know Xu Xuan?"
"Xu Xuan?" Gan Ning was slightly stunned, and then nodded slowly, "My Han is the son of the late Duliao general Xu Shu, and it is too common today!" ”
"He's in Xinye now, does Brother Gan know?"
"I know, canonize Xuande Gong as General Zuo, and give the name of the emperor's uncle, as well as gifts such as scepters..."
"If Xu Xuan salutes me personally, are you credible?" Liu Xie doesn't talk nonsense now, he feels that in this year, Xu Xuan's name is probably louder than him.
At this time, Gan Ning looked at the young brother in front of him who suddenly opened his mouth and said "I" one by one... The young and handsome, majestic and selfless, handsome and chic, strong and powerful good son, his expression slowly became serious.
"What your Excellency said... Seriously? ”
"Xinye is only half a day's journey from here, if Xingba is not afraid, you can bring your soldiers and horses to return to Xinye.
When the time comes..."
"At this time, we can't let more people know!" Gan Ning directly raised his hand to interrupt Liu Xie's words, but after finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that this attitude was not very good, but he didn't plan to change it, but he just looked at Liu Xie with a heavy face.
Finally, I slowly spoke...
"I'd rather go with you to Xinye today, if it is... If you are really Your Majesty...
That Gan Ning is the final encounter with the master, such a good opportunity must not be given up! ”
Saying that, Gan Ning didn't care that he had just drunk, so he pushed the door directly and walked out, and soon the mansion became noisy again, and then a BMW that looked quite divine also came to Gan Ning.
"Please!" Gan Ning didn't dare to say anything about the virtuous brother anymore, so he could only bow down and let Liu Xie invite him first.
And Liu Xie was not polite at this time, and directly gave up his plan to go to Xiangyang, and then went directly to Xinye with his greatest gain.
Liu Bei did not say anything about Liu Xie's sudden return, and Liu Bei also gave a very grand reception to the sudden arrival of Gan Ning.
Of course, this is not because Liu Bei knows Gan Ning's ability, but with his actions in Jingzhou during this time, more and more Jingxiang heroes, and even some children of the family have taken the initiative to come to defect.
He is like this for almost everyone, which makes Liu Xuande's name of love for talent even more popular.
Even when it reached Liu Biao's ears, I don't know what Liu Biao's thoughts were...
As for that Xu Xuan... As the Taichang of the Han Dynasty, although he should stay in Chang'an, it can be seen from Zhao Yan's secret letter to Liu Xie.
"Xu Xuan is knowledgeable, talented, knows how to advance and retreat, and understands things.
Let him be a staff member by His Majesty's side..."
There are not many words, and he is very subtle, but Liu Xie can still understand it.
This guy is too often because he got the jade seal back, and he didn't let the jade seal get a second damage.
But this guy's abilities... He has the ability but not much, he was also a young man and erudite back then, and then the lord who was born in Gaodi once fought against Zhang Zhong under the pressure of the Empress Dowager Dong.
He is a very upright and tough person.
But... Too upright and tough, this guy completely disagrees with Liu Xie's separation from the imperial court, and then takes risks in Xinye by himself.
Zhao Yan couldn't explain it, Jia Xu, the old guy, hid directly, Liu Ye... It is said that Liu Ye wanted to refute one or two, and almost let this guy have an all-martial arts with him in the court.
After all, in history, this guy seems to have attacked the Yellow Turban Army with Zhu Jun, and when he gave Cao Cao the title of prime minister, Cao Cao had to talk to him and let him come first...
Although Xu Xuan did not become the prime minister in the end, this guy's personality is still known to the world.
Especially when he took the accounts of Champion County to Kyoto and almost gave Empress Dowager Dong a dead anger, he is also famous all over the world, such people... Zhao Yan couldn't bear it.
And when Gan Ning saw Liu Xie sitting on the throne with his own eyes, Xu Xuan, who was too often, knelt directly on the ground, looking like a dead admonition to let his virtuous brother return to Chang'an, all Gan Ning's thoughts disappeared.
Some are surprised and surprised, and there is also that deep excitement.
"Occupy the three Qins in Guanzhong, look at Yongliang and lurk in Jingzhou... This is going to rise in one day! ”
Although Gan Ning is not too general, he also understands some of these things and knows what Liu Xie's current situation is.
At this time, Gan Ning, looking at the Han Emperor who smiled at him and made it clear that he valued him very much, how could he not be agitated?
Half a day later, Liu Xie finally appeased Xu Xuan again, and then fled from Xinye.
When they left Xinye, Liu Xie couldn't help but sigh towards Gan Ning.
"Xingba.... You can see why I'm reluctant to deal with government affairs in Shinno.
This Xu is too often... Ay! ”
Looking at Liu Xie's helpless face, Gan Ning also straightened up directly, and then bowed to Liu Xie, "Your Majesty can't say that, Xu Taichang is also for the sake of the Han Dynasty!" ’
“.... That one... Xingba doesn't have to be like this, although you and I are monarchs and ministers, in fact, we are also brothers..."
"The last general will not dare!" Gan Ning suddenly dismounted and bowed, "The last general was reckless and rude before, and he actually spoke wild words to His Majesty, and I hope that Your Majesty can forgive your sins!" ”
“..... I.." Liu Xie looked at Gan Ning in front of him, and finally hesitated for a while, but sighed directly, "That's it, that's it..
You... You... I will take you back to Deng County first, and then reorganize the soldiers and horses to follow me.
First go to Xiangyang to visit Liu Jingzhou, and then follow me to Lumen Mountain to apprentice! ”
"Yui!"
