Chapter 19 Proverbs
Although he repeatedly confirmed that he was not sick, Huo Jun was still not at ease, and finally protected himself outside.
Agrarian societies are different from later generations, but they are prone to death if they are infected with a disease. Huo Jun didn't know why he died young and young when he was strong, but in order to prevent incurable diseases, he put caution in everything.
I slept in the side room for a long time, and the wine gradually dissipated. Huo Jun got up, wanting to see the eldest son Liu Qi, but he heard the maid say that Liu Qi was messing with two singers, so in order not to disturb Liu Qi's interest in having fun, he left alone.
Listening to the sound of playing, Huo Jun couldn't help but shake his head. No wonder Liu Qi died early in history, Liu Qi's body is thin, and normally he can only eat one woman, but now he is having fun with two women, how can he stand it.
And there are wine and meat people around him, and when facing Liu Cong's seizure of the throne, he has almost no power to fight back. Not to mention mediocrity, how can you become a big tool if you are so greedy for women!
Liu Qi has a good personality, is filial, has a gentle mood, and can listen to the opinions of others. In times of crisis, there is still a decision. In the peaceful world, Liu Qi can still be a rich man, but in the troubled times, it is difficult to keep his business.
In addition, Huo Junting likes to play with Liu Qi in his spare time. After all, Liu Qi has a lot of tricks in playing. But to get down to business, you have to find Liu Bei.
Huo Jun went out, boarded the ox cart, and half-rested.
"Master, sit tight!"
Huo Hu replaced his eldest brother Huo Xiong and drove for Huo Jun.
As the ox cart starts, slowly drive down the road. Children on the side of the road are playing in twos and threes, playing in twos and threes, singing nursery rhymes with milky voices, "Eight or nine years have begun to decline, and there are no children left behind in thirteen years; In the end, the destiny of heaven has returned, and the dragon in the mud flies to the sky. ”
Huo Jun, who closed his eyes and recuperated, asked: "Ah Hu, when did this nursery rhyme be sung, why haven't you heard it a few days ago?" ”
Huo Hu, who was holding the reins, replied: "Just two days ago, I don't know where this nursery rhyme came from, and for a while, Xiangyang children were singing. I just don't understand the deep meaning, I don't know if the head of the family knows? ”
"I don't know!"
"Drive!"
Huo Jun, who was sitting in the car, thought deeply for a while, knowing how he didn't know the deep meaning of this nursery rhyme, but he didn't want to say it. It's a nursery rhyme, it's better to say a proverb.
"Beginning to decline in eight or nine years" refers to the beginning of the eighth or ninth year of Jian'an, when the fortunes of the Liu Biao family declined and began to weaken.
"To the thirteenth year of no widows" refers to the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao went south, Liu Biao died of illness, Liu Cong dedicated Jingzhou, returned to Cao's family, and Jingzhou changed hands.
The reason why the fortune of Liu Biao's family has declined in the eight years of Jian'an is because of the dispute between the elder and the youngest caused by Liu Qi and Liu Cong. And it won't be long before he will witness this scene, on the December day of the seventh year of Jian'an, Yi married, and Liu Cong married Cai's daughter.
The ox cart stopped, and Huo Jun also arrived at his new residence. If you join the army by yourself, you can't say anything if you still live in Wang Cang's house. Moreover, those things that Huo Jun operated by himself were even more inconvenient to stay in Wang Cang's house.
Sitting on the seat, Huo Jun dismantled the letter sent by his brother Huo Du, the letter said the recent situation of his Huo family, after Huo Jun left, with the deterrence of force, the Huo family still mastered the resale channel of Ba Yan, and grabbed a lot of profits from it.
In this half year, Huo's tribe has absorbed another 100 people, totaling 500 people. Thanks to the abundance of sharks, rhinos and other species in the land of Jingchu, more than 100 tribes are equipped with leather armor. However, the iron armor is only five or six collars, which is pitiful.
In the past few months, Huo Du was instructed by Huo Jun to often lead his subordinates to sail and cruise in the river to practice, and when he had time, he also entered the Yangtze River and galloped on the Yangtze River waterway.
During this period, Huo Du also told an interesting anecdote that Huo Yuan, a son of the clan, was quite brave. When traveling, see a woman, read it unforgettable, after hearing this woman Xu Xiang's children, grief-stricken, then on the card book 'love' word, bury it on the hill, out of the funeral, howling and crying, people asked the reason, answered: I mourn.
Huo Jun wrote a letter back to his brother Huo Du, briefly talking about his situation in Xiangyang, so that he could practice in his hometown, work weapons and armor, and don't forget to teach his subordinates the habit of maintaining weapons. If you have free time, help Huo Yuan find a good girl to marry, so as to save yourself from thinking that you are infatuated.
At the same time, Huo Jun replied to Li Qian, the concubine who missed him, so that she didn't have to rush north, if she missed it tightly, she could take the time to come to Xiangyang.
After handing over the letter to Huo Xiong to send, Chen Zhi also secretly came to Huo Jun's house.
"Huo Jun!" Chen Zhi was dressed simply, and said with his hand.
In order to cooperate with Huo Jun's activities in Xiangyang, Liu Bei specially arranged Chen Zhi to Xiangyang and brought more than a dozen people with him, who were dispatched by Huo Jun.
"Sit!"
Huo Jun pointed to the seat in front of him and said, "Do you know how to spread rumors and rumors?" ”
Chen Zhi nodded and said, "I visited secretly and gained a little from my brothers. The old woman in the alley has a mixed mouth, and she can spread out some money. ”
"That's it!" Huo Jun took out the bamboo slip in his arms and handed it to Chen Dao, and said, "From now on, you and a few others don't have to see me, try your best to spread this word, and make as much noise as possible." But it must not be detected by the officials of Xiangyang, otherwise the great cause will be ruined. ”
Chen Zhi looked at the bamboo slips and wrote on the front and back, "The sub-line is Wu Yue wolf, and the ambition is rampant; The first revenge of his father, three years to take the head of the thief. ”
"Do you understand the meaning of this proverb?" Huo Jun asked deliberately.
Chen Zhi looked at the proverb, dismantled it and said: "The sub-line should be 'grandson', and Wu Yue wolf should refer to Wu Jun, that is, Sun Quan." If he succeeds, he will be arrogant, first avenge the murder of his father, and then take the order of the enemy behind the scenes. ”
"Words are concise and easy to understand." Chen Zhi arched his hand and said.
The proverb is easy to understand, mainly in revenge, when Sun Jian went to Jingzhou, he was killed by Huang Zu under Liu Biao's account. In a sense, Huang Zu and Liu Biao are both Sun's father-killing enemies.
Then, Huo Jun took out another towel and handed it to Chen Dao, saying, "Stuff this towel into the belly of the fish, and be sure to let the officials of Xiangyang eat it." ”
Chen Zhi spread out the scarf, and wrote crookedly with a vermilion pen on it, "The son avenges the father".
"Put away this scarf, and when a certain order is given, just do what I say at the moment." Huo Jun admonished.
Chen Zhi gasped and stuffed the operation into the belly of the fish, but Chen Sheng and Wu Guang played it four hundred years ago, and the result was to open the curtain on the fall of Great Qin. This Huo Jun's conspiracy methods are really played one after another, which is unguardable.
If Huo Jun knew what Chen Zhi was thinking, he could only say that he was just a pediatric, but he knew about the supernatural events of the rebellion of the previous dynasties. If it weren't for the fear that Liu Biao would be suspicious, he would have carved a stone statue with the words "Mo Daosun's dead father and brother, enter Chu and dig up Liu's grave." ”
If it's really on, I don't know what kind of expression Liu Biao will have and what kind of attitude he will have after three sets in a row.
Chen Zhi stuffed the bamboo slips and scarves into his shoes, then turned around and left.
After Chen left, Huo Hu said: "The head of the family, Master Cai sent someone to inform him that there will be a banquet tonight, and the head of the family is also a scholar from Nanjun, so he can come to talk about friendship." ”
Huo Jun smiled disdainfully and said, "Tell the person who came, saying that I am not feeling well and it is difficult to go to the banquet." ”
"No!"
After Cai Mao entered Xiangyang, he stepped down as the Taishou of Nanjun and transferred to the military division of Zhennan General to assist Liu Biao in handling military and political affairs, and his rights were not small. But Huo Jun didn't have the idea of going to the door to lick, since he chose to stand on the side of Liu Qi and Liu Bei, he would inevitably have conflicts with Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.
Cai Mao and Kuai Yue are basically the scholars who protect themselves in the troubled times, if they are not bad as expected, after the battle of Guandu, it is estimated that they have begun to fight with Cao Cao. Otherwise, Liu Biaogang would not have died, and when Liu Cong still had the ambition to unite with Liu Bei to fight against Cao Cao, he was carried out of the city by Cai Mao and Kuai Yue to surrender.
The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other!
"The World Speaks New Language: Arrangement Twenty-Five": Huo Wenying traveled in May, met a scholar's daughter, read it unforgettable, and then heard that he had promised to the son, so he wrote a love word on the card, put it on the car, and paraded the car every month.
