Chapter 023: Lu Kang's final confession
After Zhou Yu and Sun Ce left, Lu Yi let out a long breath and said to Xu Shu, "Are you okay?" ”
Lu Yi really didn't expect Xu Shu to have such a hot temper!
Even if they didn't agree with each other, they drew their swords and faced each other!
In his impression, Xu Shu's image is still the same as in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" he saw before the crossing, a gentleman and gentle and elegant.
Xu Shu withdrew his gaze from the direction of Zhou Yu and the others, glanced at Lu Yi and said, "Thank you for coming to the rescue." Although I had expected that the Zhou family was extraordinary, I didn't expect that these subordinates would be able to react so quickly. ”
Nangong Yan said with a smile: "The Zhou family's name shocked Yangzhou, and even the Taishou was helpless, otherwise, do you think the Taishou would connive at the Zhou family to be unscrupulous in Lujiang?" ”
Xu Shu said: "Brother Nangong taught a lesson. ”
Lu Yi saw that Xu Shu and Nangong Yan had calmed down, so he took them into the Taishou Mansion and met Taishou Lu Kang.
Lu Kang said with a smile: "You guys are so bold that you dare to clash with the people of the Zhou family at the door!" is still the little son of the Zhou family! ”
Looking at Lu Yi, Lu Kang said: "Fortunately, Junli stopped it in time, otherwise, the head of the Zhou family would come over and be another toss." ”
Xu Shu said: "It's all my fault, and it has nothing to do with Brother Xiangjun and Brother Nangong!" ”
Lu Kang looked at Xu Shu quietly.
On Xu Shu's expressionless face, his brows frowned slightly, a little cramped and uneasy.
Lu Kang sighed and said softly: "Yuan Zhi! ”
Xu Shu said: "Yes." ”
Lu Kang said: "In this world, the sword of one person can no longer play much role. ”
"The chaos has started, how many people can be killed with a sword of one person?"
"No matter how strong your martial arts are, how many people can you deal with at the same time?"
"In the past, the overlord of Chu was able to carry the tripod, and in the battle of Wujiang, he killed more than 200 people alone, but in the end, he was still added by Wan Yan and became the stepping stone for others to be crowned an official mantle."
"The courage of the horseman can no longer set off the wind and waves."
Pointing to his temple, Lu Kang said, "Now, you have to live here." ”
"The power of one person against thousands of troops, which is better or worse?"
Xu Shu said in a hoarse voice: "I remember." ”
Lu Kang nodded and said, "You are a smart person, I believe in you." ”
After speaking, he looked at Lu Yi, pushed a box over and said, "Junli, this is the Tiger Talisman, you keep it." ”
"Tomorrow morning, you will set out with your troops."
"For the time being, I will appoint you as the Sima of other departments, and lead 3,000 people to assist Xuzhou."
"Because you have never led troops, this time to aid Xuzhou, after you get there, it is very likely that the Xuzhou pastor will find a way to let you hand over the military power."
"When the time comes, you will split the Tiger Talisman in two."
"You take half of it yourself, so that when you come back, you can bring back our soldiers from Lujiang."
"The other half, you must remember, unless it is Xuzhou Mu himself, others, you must pay attention to his conduct."
"If you are a disciple of Zangba, remember not to give. This person was originally a cavalry lieutenant in Xuzhou, but because the Cao army attacked, he gave up his official position and hid in the mountains to be a troublemaker, and honesty was not advisable. If you give him the tiger talisman, it will tarnish the intention of my Lujiang soldiers to come all the way to help this time! ”
Lu Yi responded: "Okay! ”
Lu Kang pointed to the box containing the tiger talisman that had been pushed to the side of the case.
Lu Yi stepped forward quickly, opened the box, checked it, and confirmed that the two halves of the tiger talisman were inside, and there was a document covered with the seal of Lujiang Taishou under it, so the box was covered.
Lu Kang waved his hand and said, "That's all, go ahead, you must be safe!" ”
Lu Yi was about to leave with Nangong Yan and Xu Shu.
Lu Kang said busily again: "Slow! ”
Lu Yi and the three of them stopped and looked at Lu Kang suspiciously.
Lu Kang sighed, beckoned, "You come back, I have something to give you." ”
Lu Yi, Nangong Yan and Xu Shu walked back.
Lu Kang took out two yellowed quaint books from his sleeve and said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, this one is for you." ”
Xu Shu walked up, took the book, and said blankly: "Taigong Art of War"? "Sun Bin Art of War"? ”
Lu Kang nodded, looked at the two books in Xu Shu's hand with a look of reluctance, and said: "These two books of the art of war are the key to unlocking wisdom and mastering thousands of troops." In the past, Zhang Liangde taught the "Taigong Art of War", and finally assisted Emperor Gaozu to unify the Han Dynasty. ”
""Sun Bin's Art of War" is written by Sun Bin, a disciple of Guiguzi, and it involves all kinds of troop formations."
"Relying on these two books, I have defeated the Yellow Turban Thieves and the bandits around the Lujiang River several times before."
"Today, I'll give them to you, and if you can endure the study, keep them well."
"If you can't bear it, you will pass it on to my youngest son or grandson in the future."
Xu Shu looked at the two books in his hand and glanced at Lu Kang again.
He wanted to say, why suddenly send such a valuable item?
He thought of one possibility: his last words.
With this thought, Xu Shu hurriedly shook his head.
No, it won't!
He didn't believe Lu Kang would die.
Lu Kang is the best official he has ever seen, a pillar of the imperial court, and the imperial court will not let him die.
Thinking of this, Xu Shu thanked him and hid the two books.
Lu Kang looked at Nangong Yan again and said, "Boyu, after this time, you will follow Junli." ”
Boyu, the word of Nangong Yan.
Nangong Yan smiled: "Fujun, you have explained." ”
Lu Kang looked at Nangong Yan and said, "I'm talking about the kind of follow." ”
Nangong Yan's smile disappeared instantly, and her face was covered with coldness.
The Nangong family and the Lu family have had a marriage since ancient times.
In order to consolidate the relationship between the two families, as the Nangong family, which takes martial arts as its family business, it is necessary to send one of the descendants of the head of the family to choose one of the descendants, and follow the head of the Lu family from the age of twelve until he marries a wife.
Nangong family has only three children and grandchildren in his generation.
One is him.
A younger sister who has already been married.
One is his younger brother.
Because his younger brother is young, as the eldest son, he was sent by his family to Lu Kang from the age of twelve, firstly to protect Lu Kang's safety, and secondly, to follow Lu Kang to learn Wen Taowu strategy.
Although the Nangong family takes martial arts as their family business, the Nangong family has always believed that they cannot participate in the court dispute, but there must be a "text".
And the Lu family, who is also the grandson of the head of the family, must marry the descendant of the Nangong family.
If neither party has a daughter, they become brothers.
And Lu Kang is the head of the Lu family in Wu County!
He actually let himself, the young owner of Nangong, follow Lu Yi all the time!
That is to say, Lu Yi, a side branch, will be the head of the Lu family in Wu County in the future?
How could the people of the Lu family of Wu County agree?
The most critical question is, if he says this, does that also mean that he, the Lu family of Wu County, will die?
A generation of family heads, only before death, or premonition that they are going to die, will hand over the position of head of the family!
That's a big deal!
It stands to reason that he must go back to Ou'a to discuss with his father!
Lu Kang seemed to know Nangong Yan's thoughts, and said, "You just do what I say." I'll take care of the rest. ”
Nangong Yan glanced up at Lu Kang at this time, took a deep breath and said, "I know." ”
Lu Kang smiled at Nangong Yan, and finally said to Lu Yi: "Ji'er and Xun'er will be handed over to you, Junli." When you're away from home, be careful. ”
"I've already said hello to the city gatekeepers, and I'll close the gates later today. If you go back now, let Ji'er and Xun'er take advantage of the night to cover the south. ”
After a pause, Lu Kang's voice was a little dry, and he said, "Tell Ji'er for me, he will be a man in the future." Although his father can't be by his side, he will always love him. ”
After speaking, he waved his hand, lowered his head and continued to process the paperwork.
Lu Yizai looked at Lu Kang carefully.
This departure should be goodbye.
I hope to be able to keep his voice and smile in my heart.
In this troubled era, he is one of the few ministers who is still loyal to the monarch and patriotic.
