…… So he was dragged in to learn riding.

Riding a horse and running around the wasteland is easy to run away.

Looking back, she couldn't see Qiancheng, and it was estimated that it was closer to Jishui, she and Zhang Liao discussed, it was better to go to the river to rest, just when she was drinking horses, there was a cry in the distance.

And a woman with two children in her arms sat by the river and wept.

She was about to step forward to ask, but Zhang Liao suddenly grabbed her reins.

"If you go and ask, she will run away."

“…… Why? ”

"The people north of the thousand," he said, "have all the people who have gone to Jishui secretly, and if she is seen by the officials, she will be punished." ”

The person was far away, and he could only see a few figures standing there, but he couldn't hear what she was shouting at the river, and he only felt very sad.

"Some of the peasants near Qiancheng were taken back to the plain by Yuan Tan without leaving," Zhang Liao said, "Originally, some people wanted to go to the plains to look for people, but the land south of the plains was deserted, and there were officials patrolling it." If they are caught on our side, they will be punished with hard labor, and if they are found on the other side of the plain, they will be killed on the spot. ”

It dawned on her.

"Her husband may still be alive," she said, "but it doesn't seem to be any different from being dead." ”

"Yes."

"It's just two rivers, like Xinghan."

Zhang Liao seemed to want to laugh, but when he laughed, it turned into a bitter smile.

"The princes conquered and the people were displaced, and this is just a glimpse."

Fathers and sons can't see each other, wives and husbands are forced to separate, maybe alive, but they can only look at each other across the river and cry, like two countries, two worlds.

"But," she said, pointing to the north bank of the river, "there are big men there, too." ”

Chapter 328

It was getting overcast, and after a while it began to rain.

The rain fell on the leaves of the trees, and gently burrowed into the dirt, it was still silent, but when it hit the tiles, under the eaves, and beside the steps, the sound was clear, and the whole Xiapi City was washed out with a different fresh color.

Last winter, it was a city full of filth and corpses from the inside out, almost dead, and now whether it is the branches and leaves sticking out of the walls, the clumps of new bamboo in the courtyard, or the moss under the corners of the walls, or the weeds among the stone slabs, all of them are green and vibrant.

It is like a grass that has been crushed under a boulder, and when the spring breeze blows, it comes to life so quietly.

Someone wearing a hat and a hat hurried through the street.

There are also women who are in twos and threes, stepping on clogs and holding on to the hair, and do not take this spring rain in their eyes.

There are also buffaloes being led away in the rain, making disgruntled snorts.

They are near or far away, and make up the sound of Xiapi at this time.

Xun Chen's gaze quietly turned to the bamboo curtain, and when he glanced at the verdant courtyard, Liu Bei was also observing him with interest.

This envoy came to ask for the third son, Yuan Shang, and wanted to marry Liu Bei's daughter.

Although the girl is still young, Yuan Shao said that it doesn't matter, anyway, everyone is so far away, from Nacai to asking for names and then to Najib, two years to slowly go through the process, and then start the official dowry again, please welcome these two in person, half a year is enough.

If the average family is ordered to such a prominent family affair, the woman's family will immediately start to be busy, and the gold silk, woodware, pearls and jade treasures, male and female servants, cattle, horses, pigs and sheep, and fields and houses - imagine it! That is Yuan Shao's favorite little son! The fourth world and the third duke, the noble son of the top famous family of the Han Dynasty, is handsome, talented, and brave, and he is simply a top bachelor in the clouds!

Especially everyone is saying that Yuan Benchu's family business will be the youngest son in the future! That's not a few acres of land, a few rooms, a few cows, that's Youji and Sanzhou, plus half of Qingzhou!

The maids in the back house were very excited, and when they thought that they might follow the girl to live in Jizhou, they were scared and expectant, and the last part of the overmotivated young maids still overwhelmed their fear, and they were determined to behave well, in case they had that fate, and they would be in Yuan Shang's side room!

However, Liu Bei's family was not very excited about this matter, and Mrs. Mi even taught her stepdaughter like this:

"You should read and read, you should write and write, and you don't have to take this matter to heart," she said, "and in two and a half years, your father and your husband's family may have to divide the winner, and if the little boy is still alive by then, it will not be too late to continue the marriage." ”

So Liu Bei doesn't care much about this family business, while Qingxu needs to recuperate, Yuan Shao is also facing a very obvious problem:

A large area of land south of the plain and north of the thousand times has been broken, if Yuan Shao wants to attack from Qingzhou, it is useless to send fewer soldiers and horses, Yuan Tan has already fought Qingzhou twice, and Beihai already has rich experience in fighting the enemy;

If more soldiers and horses are sent, and hundreds of thousands of people are transported from Jizhou to the south, it will be an extremely huge project, and the consumption of grain and grass will also reach an astonishing number.

Therefore, before Yuan Shao solves this point, he will not come to attack Qingzhou, and the family affair is just an additional clause.

Unless Liu Bei can brush up on Yuan Shao's higher favorability than Cao Cao and sincerely give Yuan Shao his younger brother, this marriage can only make the two families fight a war of words at most, even if they really marry this girl, everyone can still fight at any time.

…… It's better to work hard in the future, maybe you can defeat Yuan Shao, if you can really capture that little son, it's not too late to catch him as a good son-in-law.

After thinking about this clearly, Liu Bei's attention shifted to the messenger sent by Yuan Shao.

In the few days that Xun Chen visited Xiapi, the lord of Xuzhou had a very good impression of him.

This young man is well-read, quick-witted, and eloquent, and people love it at first sight.

The angel Yang Xiu who came to Xuzhou also had such a ability, but Xun Chen had one more thing than him, that is, no matter when he talked to anyone, he didn't show half of his arrogance.

No matter who he talks to, he seems to be able to talk about the topic very happily, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

…… Anyway, Liu Bei couldn't think of anyone who could talk to Xun Chen.

…… Maybe the hanging fish has this ability?

…… Cough.

"I heard that Yuan Gong was the most convinced, and ordered him to supervise the internal and external commands, and threaten the three armies," Liu Bei said with a smile, "I don't know if this is true?" ”

"The frustrated prince has a lot of power and strategy, and he has to be very good, so the lord respects him very much." Xun Chen also replied with a smile.

"How's Mr. Bi?"

"Fu Gong can be described as the elite of the world," Xun Chen said with a smile, "How can Chen be able to do it?" ”

"Seeing Mr. Gao Cai today, I don't believe that there are people in Hebei who can go past Mr.!" Liu Bei sighed, "It's a pity that Mr. is not in Xuzhou, otherwise I will treat Mr. with the same heart!" ”

Liu Bei is a person with a very bold personality, and his love between words has not been hidden, so for Xun Chen, the next temptation to dig into the corner of the wall is not surprising.

But after he politely refused, Liu Yuanjun, who was not very enthusiastic about Yuan Shang, asked a new question.

"Is the gentleman married?"

…… After receiving a negative answer, Liu Bei immediately enthusiastically proposed:

"When it comes to the reading of the successive generations, there is a family of fame for a while, not only in Hebei!"

Of course, there are famous and noble women everywhere, the Beihai Kong family, the Xiapi Chen family, are all Qingxu Wang clan, and the Yingchuan Xun clan is not a big family compared to it. Such a proposal is half-true, of course it's good to agree, it's okay not to agree, anyway, the purpose of this envoy is to express his importance to him, and the meaning is on the line.

When Xun Chen heard such a proposal, he neither refused nor agreed, he just turned his head to look outside the bamboo curtain again.

The drizzle had not stopped, and a maid walked under the steps, splashing a little water, but the maid was really slack, and did not notice it at all, let alone dodge, so she let the splash fall on the corner of her skirt, and continued to walk on the ground.

…… The gesture of walking in the rain suddenly reminded him of a person.

At this time, there was not a drop of rain in the sun, and the sun gradually became a little dazzling, and it brought a bit of heat when it fell on the body, scorching people's nerves.

When Gao Shun returned to the eastern outskirts of Luoyang with the trapping camp, Wei Xu had been waiting there for a long time.

- According to Wei Xu's words, it can't be regarded as "waiting".

"This is the general's order," he handed over the paperwork, "and in the future, Bethson will leave it to me with confidence." ”

Gao Shun didn't say a word, took it silently, and began to read word by word.

And Wei Xu stared at him very concernedly.

Among the generals who followed the general to Luoyang, Gao Shun seemed to be the least changed.

His skin was dark, and his features had a sturdy, almost serious temperament, so age had little effect on him.

The upheaval and attacks in the past ten years have not tempered his mind, his posture is still dignified, and his eyes are still stern.

But after he came to Luoyang, he was still thinner than before.

This peaceful and comfortable life did not please him, but rather worried him. Although others didn't notice it, Wei Xu noticed it.

Gao Shun finished reading the order and raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes were extremely cold.

Just when Wei Xu was ready to be rejected, Gao Shun took out the bronze talisman from the box and handed it to him.

He reached out to take it, and Gao Shun spoke coldly.

"In the camp, they are all soldiers I brought out, and I mobilize them, so I don't need this talisman."

His eyes were so bright that they seemed to have shone into the depths of his heart.

Wei Xu didn't say anything and took the talisman over.

There was silence in the tent for a while.

"It's a pity that you're so faithful." Wei continued.

Gao Shun narrowed his eyes.

"I'm going my own way, and I don't need you to be pitiful."

He didn't even take off his armor, turned around and strode out, bringing up a gust of wind that left sweat and blood, dirt and burnt smell in the tent.

Wei Xu stood in this excessively simple tent, which now belonged to him.

The weather is a little hot, and he should first order his soldiers to come over, fetch water for him, take a bath, and have a good rest.

But he didn't call anyone, he still stood there and was stunned for a long time.

I don't know why, Wei Xu suddenly remembered the days a long time ago, when he and his comrades played bare-bottomed in the river.

…… He doesn't seem to be able to compare himself with Gauberson.

…… Xiao Lu shouldn't have seen it! It would be a shame to see it!

The tent was empty, and he was the only one who thought about it, and suddenly burst out laughing.

Lu Hangyu didn't know where there was anyone, and suddenly remembered her.

There were also a few rains in Beihai, and although it caused a little trouble to the case, it was extremely friendly to the peasant uncle, and everyone endured this little trouble - after all, many fields had just been dug out of Haoqiang's hands, and the construction of the canal had to be sent later, so this year we had to continue to rely on the sky for food.

The project is basically over, and some of the female officials have returned to the camp, and some have stayed to continue to audit and close the meters in each county.

…… But Chen Qun had a new idea, and she never thought of it.

In the afternoon, when the sun was shining, the soldiers sat in the shade of the trees and watched the lady write on the ground with branches.
