Chapter 548 - Brother Liu Bei
In Liu Bei's letters, the words are full of care and comfort, as for what transfer, change of guard or other things...
There was not a single mention in the letter, and it even said that he had discussed it with His Majesty in private.
also wrote to Zilong, the general under His Majesty's command, so that Zilong's daughter Zhao... Able to marry Guan Ping.
First, Guan Ping has reached this age, and he is around.... This Zhang Fei's daughter is still too young, but his own daughter is a little older, not to mention, she is already married.
Zhuge Liang has no biological children for the time being, and Pang Tong has only one son.
Liu Bei also wanted them to solve it internally, but they really couldn't do it.
In the end, I could only find such a reasonable candidate, so I naturally had to talk about one or two.
In addition, Liu Bei even asked Yinping, that is, Guan Yu's daughter, and Guan Yu's son Guan Xing to transfer from Xiangyang to Jiangling to visit his parents and eldest brother...
And the premise of these words is that Guan Yu's prestige is now shocked, and in the army, his prestige and even status in Jingzhou have approached Liu Bei himself.
Even the reputation is far beyond Liu Bei.... And Liu Bei didn't know Guan Yu's physical condition....
"The garrison is outside, and the prestige is extremely high..."Guan Yu looked at the letter in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little blurry, "If you don't take away my eldest son, and second, you don't take away Guan's family...
Big brother, how do you let Guan repay this trust! ”
Guan Yu is also familiar with Zuo Chuan Spring and Autumn, and he has also read a lot of books over the years, whether it is ancient or modern, no matter when, he has never seen a monarch who can trust the generals with foreign surnames under his command so much.
Power, fame, status, official position, soldiers... Even children and grandchildren...
He had already given everything he could, and even Guan Yu felt that if he hadn't taken the initiative to send his second son and family members to Liu Bei's side in Xiangyang, I am afraid that even Guan Xing's stinky boy would be training by his side now.
Don't say anything about Cao Mengde in this world, even if Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Shizu Guangwu back then, how could they have such trust in the people under their command?
To be honest, Guan Yu has never seen a second person like this....
"That's it... That's it..."
After a sigh, Guan Yu called his eldest son Guan Ping to the camp, and of course, Ma Liang, who is now serving as the other driver of Jingzhou, and Zhou Cang, the deputy general, Ma Wan and others.
This night, Guan Yu explained many things to them, and then got up to leave.
In the twenty-fifth year of Jian'an, Guan Yu asked Liu Bei to find someone who was good at internal affairs to preside over the affairs of Jingzhou, and at the same time asked himself to inspect all parts of Jingzhou to investigate corruption and lawlessness, as well as people who took the opportunity to make money...
And the reason why Guan Yu did this was to completely do the book of worship and persuasion in his hand.
In the mansion of Jiangling City, Guan Yu, who was ready to travel far away, looked at his eldest son Guan Ping in front of him with a little smile for the first time.
He was not angry or reprimanded him for his recklessness today.
On the contrary, today's Guan Yu is quite "gentle" to him.
"What's wrong... As your father prepares to leave, what are you not relieved about? ”
Guan Ping listened to these words with a bit of ridicule, and for the first time, he felt a little ridiculous.
However, Guan Ping couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the purpose of his coming today.
"Father, my father said back then that the last general... Let the kid call his father a general in the army, but today the kid dares to call the general a father.
I don't know what my father is going to do today! ”
"....." Guan Yu looked at the son in front of him who was completely different from the one he had been, he didn't answer immediately, but there seemed to be a little smile in his eyes.
"Haven't you already guessed what the Father wants to do?
For so many years, in addition to going into battle to kill the enemy, the only thing he has done is this book of worship and persuasion.
For the Father to know that it's hard, but.... For the Father, I want to try!
By the way, Lang'er is going to travel to the Quartet in a while, you know that your younger brother has a cautious personality, and his mind can't be settled.
He can't inherit the family business, and his father doesn't expect him to be able to carry the pillars of the Guan family.
In the future, not only will you have to be familiar with the affairs of the army, but even your brother and sister will ask you.
Got it? ”
"Father!" This time, Guan Ping didn't listen to Guan Yu's words and directly said that he understood, but knelt directly in front of Guan Yu and said a word to him very firmly.
"This time, please bring the boy with me!"
“.....”
Guan Yu also seemed to hear Guan Ping's resistance for the first time, looking at Guan Ping who was half-kneeling in front of him, and finally he couldn't help but sigh.
After the silence, Guan Yu did not get angry, nor did he reprimand, he just sighed, and then slowly got up and came to Guan Ping's side and patted him on the shoulder hard.
Originally... Unconsciously, Guan Yu didn't realize that his waist could no longer be straightened now.
And this son, who seems to be under his wing forever, has grown to the point where he is now.
He was tall and strong enough, and his stature was quite different from his own.
Although I don't have the same great strength as myself, it's not a simple person, plus years of hard work...
"Boy, it's really much stronger!" Guan Yu looked at his son in front of him, who was almost on his chest even if he was half-kneeling, and the smile on his face really couldn't stop.
This time, he finally stopped being so strict with Guan Ping....
Guan Yu didn't say anything, he just patted Guan Ping's shoulder very indifferently, and then looked in the other direction with a somewhat sighing expression.
"Ping'er, in fact, you know what those words of my father and your brother mean that day, right?"
“.....”
"You don't need to answer anything, you and Lang'er are two completely different people!
Compared to Lang'er's over-cautiousness, you are.... It's a bit mindless, or too blunt.
It's not that you can't understand it, it's not that you don't understand it, you just don't want to understand it yourself.
Perhaps it seems to you that doing this for the Father is a little... No matter what you think, as you say, if you want to do it for the Father, then the Father will do it!
And as long as the Father wants to do it, then you will do whatever you are told.
Ping'er, you are a good general and a good son, but.... And that's all you have to say! ”
Guan Yu's words seemed to be telling Guan Ping something, but he didn't say it so clearly, so that Guan Ping's eyes couldn't help but change a little inexplicably....
Guan Yu didn't agree with Guan Ping's idea of accompanying him, he would only take Zhou Cang with him this time, and he would only bring his second son Guan Xing, and then that's it.
As for the rest, he won't bring it anymore, he actually wants to take this opportunity to go straight to Jiangdong and completely fulfill the long-cherished wish in his heart.
But... He can't do it!
His body no longer supports him to continue to go to Jiangdong, and what he has to do now is to stabilize Liu Bei's forces as smoothly as possible, and then fight for Liu Bei's future...
After Guan Yu turned to leave, Guan Ping still maintained a half-kneeling posture for a long, long time.
He didn't seem to know whether he wanted to get up or not, without words or movements, he kept kneeling on the ground.
It was as if the man who had been standing in front of him to reprimand him and spur him on was still in front of him.
Time passed little by little, until a familiar cough came from behind him, pulling his thoughts back from nowhere.
"Ahem, ahem... Father asked me to see if you were still kneeling here.
Really.... Father really knows you! ”
Guan Yu's adopted son Guan Lang's voice came from behind Guan Ping, and then he also walked to Guan Ping's side step by step, and naturally helped him up.
even took the initiative to bend down and pat the dust on his body.
Looking at the silent "big brother", Guan Lang couldn't help but sneer in the end.
"By the way, I may be leaving during this time, and my father agrees to let me go and let me travel the world.
I plan to go to Jiaozhou first, then transfer all the way from Yizhou to Yongzhou Liangzhou, and finally go to Bingzhou to see northern Xinjiang.
What advice does Big Brother have? ”
"Father may not insist that you come back...."Guan Ping looked at the younger brother in front of him with a face full of longing, and finally couldn't help but interrupt his words.
It seems that Guan Ping wants him to stay, but he is embarrassed to say it directly.
And Guan Lang naturally understands.
But he didn't intend to act according to Guan Ping's thoughts!
"Of course I know that you didn't hide it from me.
But... Didn't the eldest brother find out that my father didn't want me to stay with him all the time?
In this last period, let's do what we have to do.
Maybe to travel the world, take a look at the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty for my father, and go back to my hometown to pay homage to the ancestors and ancestors of the Guan family, can also help my father avoid some regrets, right? ”
“...... Heh...."Guan Ping looked at Guan Lang in front of him, and suddenly chuckled for some reason.
There was no mockery, no disdain, not even emotion.
Guan Lang couldn't help but let his Id gaze go again.
"Why is Big Brother laughing?"
"Nothing, just.... I just figured out one thing suddenly! ”
"What did Big Brother think?"
"I thought of... Why does my father always like you and not me, the eldest son! ”
“......”
