Zhao Yun met with Lu Bu, Nangong Yan, and Shi Huan.
Nangong Yan frowned and said, "Zilong, Brother Lu said this is your old friend, why are they chasing you?"
Zhao Yun sighed and said honestly: "Zhao Yun persuades them to seek refuge with the lord."
"Now there is great chaos, which is obviously a sign of the change of the imperial court."
"Liu Bei, on the other hand, has always regarded himself as the patriarch of the Han Dynasty, and it is his duty to support the Han Dynasty."
"Zhao Yun thinks it's inappropriate."
"This probably offended their wishes!"
Lu Yi also rode over at this time.
Hearing what Zhao Yun said, he almost laughed.
This is too much!
If future generations knew that Zhao Yun actually said these words to Liu Bei in this era, they would probably be shocked!
Think about "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and various Three Kingdoms games. Zhao Yun's loyalty to Liu Bei is as solid as stone.
Even in Changbanpo, in order to save Liu Bei's only son at the time, he went in and out seven times and almost died in the hands of Cao Jun.
But if you think about it carefully, this is just wishful thinking of Luo Guanzhong.
According to history books, Zhao Yun was never loyal to Liu Bei, but to the benevolent and righteous man in his mind.
Therefore, when Yuan Shao snatched Jizhou from Han Fu and Jizhou officials defected to Yuan Shao IV and Sangong one after another, Zhao Yun recruited local warriors on his own to join Gongsun Zan, the hero of the war against Hu at that time.
Unfortunately, when Gongsun Zan occupied Youzhou and gained power, he was headstrong and self-willed, and was no longer the hero he once was.
Zhao Yun took advantage of the opportunity of his brother's death to leave Gongsun Zan and never return.
If he was really only loyal to Liu Bei, he should immediately go to Liu Bei after burying his brother, instead of staying at home for several years before leaving.
Thinking about it this way, it is reasonable for Zhao Yun to persuade Liu Bei to put aside his obsession with the Han clan and join him.
Lu Yi rushed to Zhao Yun's side and said with a smile: "Zilong doesn't need to blame himself."
"Although it's a bit regretful that I couldn't get Liu Guanzhang's support."
"However, everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced."
"You didn't say anything wrong."
"It's just that in the future, when we meet, I'm afraid we will be on the same level."
"Remember, when the time comes, you must protect yourself."
"You are the most talented person in my country. You can only work hard to benefit the people in your life."
Zhao Yun hugged Lu Yi and said, "Zhao Yun obeys the order!"
Only then did Lu Yi withdraw his troops.
After staying in Xiaopei for a day and confirming that Cao Cao had indeed withdrawn, Lu Yi gave Lu Bu a thousand troops and horses to take him to Tancheng to take up the post of mayor of Tancheng. He also wrote a letter of commitment to him in front of the civil servants and generals: As long as Lu Bu could lead his army to capture Qingzhou, Lu Yi would go to the court and appoint him as the shepherd of Qingzhou, and he would never break his promise. Moreover, he will take Lu Bu's daughter Lu Qiling as his concubine.
Lu Bu left with a thousand soldiers.
Lu Yi then appointed Guangling Chen Jiao as the governor of Pengcheng County.
Although Chen Jiao's surname is Chen, he is not a member of the Chen family in Xiapi.
However, Chen Deng still promoted Chen Jiao as the governor of Pengcheng County and reached the agreement between Lu Yi and him.
Although many people cannot understand Chen Deng's decision, Lu Yi understands.
In the original history, Chen Deng was particularly fond of Chen Jiao.
Except for Chen Gui and Chen Deng, there are currently no outstanding talents in the Xiapi Chen family.
Chen Deng promoted Chen Jiao as the governor of Pengcheng County and asked him to take care of the Chen family in Xiapi. This was enough.
Because, in the original history, Chen Jiao was so talented that he even reached the position of Situ in Wei State.
At this time, when Chen Deng promoted him, Chen Jiao would be concerned about Bole's feelings and would definitely help take care of the Chen family in Xiapi.
Finally, Lu Yi warned Zhao Yun again, asking Zhao Yun to be more cautious, and to be more careful with the Xuzhou nobles and Lu Bu.
Although Lu Yi has transferred Zhang Zhao to Xuzhou Mu to cooperate with Zhao Yun.
However, nobles have never been very reliable, and it is very easy to ride on the wall.
Be prepared and you will never go wrong.
Zhao Yun wrote down Lu Yi's words one by one.
Lu Yi then took Chen Deng, Chen Gong, Liu Ye, Yan Xiang, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cheng Pu, Lu Qiling and others, as well as nearly 7,000 soldiers, replenished food and grass in Xiapi, and headed directly towards Lushan Mountain. .
Liu Ye sent soldiers to the front to inquire about Yuan Shu's whereabouts.
On the way, Lu Yi and others spent the three dynasties of the third year of Jian'an, which was also the New Year in later generations.
On the night of the Three Dynasties, Lu Yi held a simple banquet with all the civil servants and generals in the camp.
Although the civil servants and generals were a little regretful, Sanchao could not reunite with their families during the march.
However, they knew that after this trip, they would recuperate and recuperate. They would usher in a relatively long period of peace, stay away from the war, and be reunited with their families for a longer period of time, so they were a little happy.
At the banquet, everyone performed.
Chen Gong, Chen Deng and Yan Xiang performed some archery.
Liu Ye performed an impromptu sword dance.
Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and Song Qian sang a song together.
This song is a local folk song in Changsha when they followed Sun Jian from Changsha. It expresses the yearning for achievements.
Zhang Liao performed a dance.
When he fought against the Hu people at Yanmen Pass on the border, he killed many Hu people.
He also slept with several foreign female captives.
Hu men and women are good at dancing and have open temperaments.
What Zhang Liao performed was a dance performed by female Hu captives to show their love to their beloved.
Although he is tall and strong.
However, when she danced, she was also quite enchanting, making everyone laugh.
Gao Shun is relatively dull.
However, he also performed a dance.
He also learned this dance during his early wars with several veterans who were trapped in the camp.
But it is different from Zhang Liao.
He has never been close to women in his life.
The dance he learned was the war dance of the chariot and cavalry general Huangfu Song's army.
morale-boosting.
Lu Yi also performed a bit at the end.
He sang "The Rolling Waters of the Yangtze River East", which is the opening song of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
After the banquet was over, Cheng Pu arranged for the soldiers to be on duty, while the others fell asleep.
Lu Yi returned to his tent.
But he saw Lu Qiling already inside.
Before, Lu Qiling had been wearing iron armor.
Today, she changed into a purple dress.
Seeing Lu Yi come in, she was obviously a little nervous.
Standing beside the bed, Lu Qiling kept tugging at the hem of her skirt with both hands.
Although she knew her current status and was very satisfied with her young husband, Lu Yi.
However, she still felt very stressed when she was alone with Lu Yi.
Seeing Lu Yi coming over, Lu Qiling hurriedly pointed to the tea on the table and said, "I, it's the first time I've been away from my father for three days, so I walked around."
"I, I'll pour you some tea, you can sober up, and I'll go out."
Seeing Lu Qiling passing by and heading towards the table, Lu Yi suddenly stretched out his hand and picked up Lu Qiling.
Lu Qiling exclaimed.
The next moment, Lu Yi kissed him directly.
During the battle, he always restrained himself and set a good example for civil servants and generals.
Now, at this juncture of the Three Dynasties, he had not been close to a woman for so long, and a beautiful woman was coming to his door, and she was still his concubine, so he was too lazy to suppress his inner desires.
While quickly taking off Lu Qiling's long skirt, Lu Yi carried her to the bed.
After a while, the fire in the tent went out.
At the entrance of the camp, Shi Huan originally kept vigil in person tonight to prevent any accidents.
Seeing the movement in the camp, Shi Huan hurriedly asked the other Danyang elites to stand farther away.
A lovely night.
Early the next morning, Lu Qiling got up, tied her hair up high, and put on her armor.
Seeing Lu Yi get up from the bed, Lu Qiling gritted her teeth, and under Lu Yi's astonished gaze, she ran over, slapped Lu Yi's bare butt, laughed loudly, and ran out.
Lu Yi was left staring blankly at the exit of the camp with a confused look on his face.
The army stayed in place for a day so that all the soldiers could enjoy the atmosphere of three dynasties.
In the morning of the next day, the army continued to move forward.
When they arrived at Liyang County, the soldiers sent out from the front received news that Yuan Shu had indeed been betrayed by Lei Book and Chen Lan who had defected.
When Yuan Shu led his people there, not only did they not accept Yuan Shu and his party, they even sent soldiers to attack Yuan Shu and his party.
When Yuan Shu escaped from Shouchun this time, he didn't take many people with him.
After being attacked this time, they only escaped with more than a hundred people.
Under Que Ze's strong suggestion, Yuan Shu agreed to defect to Lu Yi and headed towards the Lujiang River.
Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the information.
It would be nice if they were not pursued by Cao Jun.
Queze is also safe.
While Lu Yi asked the army to speed up and move towards the Lujiang River, he also hesitated.
Yuan Shu defected to him now, how should he deal with him?
According to the oath he made, he must kill Yuan Shu and Sun Ce, and destroy the Zhou family to avenge Lu Kang's kindness.
But now, Yuan Shu is not dead and has defected to him.
Do you want to kill him?
I don't really care what his daughter Yuan Yin thinks.
The problem is that I now treat other people, including the common people, with a lenient attitude.
Now the only thing he wanted to do was kill Yuan Shu who had defected to him.
I'm afraid it will also trigger other people's thoughts.
Especially those who want to surrender themselves.
Also, I have not actually established a firm foothold in Jiangdong.
Now we rely on the vast majority of families.
No matter how unbearable Yuan Shu is, he is still after the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes.
If you kill him, what will the families in Jiangdong think?
Just when Lu Yi was extremely entangled, the army met Yuan Shu and others at Shiting in Lujiang!
At this time, there were less than fifty people around Yuan Shu, all of whom were ragged and exhausted.
Even Que Ze has gone from being a talented person to becoming like a beggar.
When Que Ze saw Lu Yi, he rushed to greet him and saluted, "My lord!"
Lu Yi hurriedly helped Que Ze up, and while asking people to bring food to Que Ze and others, he said, "Where is Yuan Shu?"
Que Ze pointed to a dilapidated hut not far behind him and said: "He and his wife are inside. He was originally seriously ill, and this time the journey has been bumpy, and he has run out of fuel. Currently, my wife is with him."
Lu Yi: "."
Yuan Shu is dying?
I go!
Was the tangle he had been having all this way solved by God?
Lu Yi hurriedly led Nangong Yan, Shi Huan and others towards the hut.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yuan Shu sitting on a pile of thatch, wrapped in dirty thick clothes, motionless.
His face turned dark.
Lips appear purple.
Eyes dull.
Beside him, a girl with messy hair, a curvy figure, and a greasy face was sobbing.
Seeing Lu Yi and others come in, the girl turned her head and looked at them with pear blossoms and rain.
Que Ze walked in and said to Lu Yi, "This is Madam."
Then he said to the girl: "Madam, this is the lord."
Although Lu Yi had been to Shouchun Mansion Office many times, this was the first time he met Yuan Yin.
And Yuan Yin had already secretly met him several times.
At this time, seeing Lu Yi coming, Yuan Yin stood up, ran over, hugged Lu Yi and started crying.
Yuan Shu, who was silent at first, heard the cry and opened his lips with difficulty: "Why did I hear the cry? Who is it? Is he dying?"
Yuan Yin suppressed her crying, let go of Lu Yi's hand, and looked at Yuan Shu.
Lu Yi felt an indescribable feeling in his heart when he saw Yuan Shu looking like this.
Holding Yuan Yin's hand, Lu Yi said softly: "Don't be afraid, leave this to me, you can eat something first."
Shi Huan hurriedly brought the dry food over and said, "Madam, there is some food here. You can make do with it first."
Yuan Yin shook her head and said to Lu Yi, "Lu Lang, I want to accompany my father on his final journey."
Lu Yi nodded.
Instructing others to wait at the door, Lu Yi led Yuan Yin over, leaned over and said, "Mr. Yuan, it's me, Lu Yi, I'm here to see you."
Yuan Shu didn't respond.
Seeing Yuan Shu's appearance, Yuan Yin covered her mouth and tears burst into her eyes again.
Lu Yi sighed and whispered in Yuan Shu's ear: "Mr. Yuan, I am Lu Yi. I am here to see you off for the last time. Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
Only then did Yuan Shu react. He slowly turned his head and looked at Lu Yi.
However, he could no longer see Lu Yi.
Everything went dark before his eyes.
Lu Yi said again: "Mr. Yuan, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
Yuan Shu opened his mouth with difficulty and said: "I, I'm good at it, I, I, I want to drink some honey water."
Yuan Yin cried: "It's the first month of the year, it's snowing, how can there be honey?"
Lu Yi: "."
The wheel of history remains stubborn.
This Yuan Shu is about to die, and he is still thinking about honey water.
However, he still looked at Shi Huan and said, "Send people around to look for people to see if any of them have honey."
Shi Huan responded and ran out.
Yuan Shu stopped responding again.
Not to mention, within half an hour, someone actually found honey!
Less than ten miles away in the direction of Shu County, there is a farmer who breeds bees and collects honey to sell.
Although most of them are sold to make money to support their families, farmers also keep a small jar to satisfy their family's cravings.
When the soldiers asked for it, the farmers did not hesitate and hurriedly took it out.
The soldier rushed over with this small jar of honey.
Lu Yi hurriedly asked someone to fetch a kettle, put it on the fire, heated the water, poured the honey in, and stirred evenly.
Yuan Yin took the honey water, tremblingly fed it to Yuan Shu's mouth and said: "Father, honey water, open your mouth."
Yuan Shu opened his mouth slightly.
Yuan Yin carefully poured the honey water in.
The honey water did not enter Yuan Shu's mouth, but flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Yuan Yin said in a trembling voice: "Father, drink honey water."
Yuan Shu still didn't respond.
At the door, Yan Xiang's eyes were red, and his body was trembling slightly as he watched this scene.
Seeing that Yuan Shu didn't respond, Lu Yi reached out and touched his carotid artery.
There is no movement anymore.
Yuan Shu finally got the honey water, but he still didn't have time to take a sip.
Lu Yi looked at Yuan Yin and said in a hoarse voice: "Your father is gone."
