Chapter 491 How to relieve worries
Wine and song, life geometry!
Like morning dew, it will be more painful every day when it goes away.
Generosity should be shown as generosity, and worries will be unforgettable.
How to relieve worries? Only Du Kang. --------Three Kingdoms. Cao Cao's "Dan Ge Xing"
It is said that the bustling world is all for the benefit of coming; the hustle and bustle of the world is for the benefit of the going. The heroes of the world are also like this. They fight endlessly for their own interests, causing chaos in the world and making people miserable. Each of the four pieces of news brought by Zhong Yao made Chen Long angry. In the end, he simply kicked Zhong Yao and Zhuge Liang out.
Zhuge Liang was depressed, so he had no choice but to serve as a messenger. As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he saw Lu Chang running over. Seeing Zhuge Liang, he stood at attention and said: "Great military advisor, there is a man outside the door. He claims to be the envoy of Sun Ce from Jiangdong. He wants to meet the lord."
Zhuge Liang was worried. Although he was surprised that Jiangdong Sun Ce, who had always been Jingzhou's sworn enemy, would send someone to envoy, he still waved his hand and said: "Go and tell the lord yourself. It just so happens that the lord wants to find you and your four perverts." Because. The special forces have always been iron men who train hard all day long, so the Qinglong Army privately calls them perverts.
Lu Chang and Zhuge Liang were the best, and said with a smile: "I obey my orders. However, this person who comes here has a close relationship with Mr. Zhuge. The military advisor really doesn't want to see him?"
Zhuge Liang was so smart. He reacted instantly. He looked up and saw a gentleman in Confucian attire. He had a face like a crown jewel, a tall body and a smile in his eyes. He couldn't help but blurt out: "Brother!"
The visitor laughed loudly, shook hands with Zhuge Liang, and said, "Brother, you are on your way! I heard that you rose to great heights and became the Great Military Advisor of Jingzhou. Brother, I came here to learn from you! Why did you rise to the rank of official so quickly? ?”
It turned out that the visitor was Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Ziyu, Zhuge Liang’s eldest brother. This time he persuaded Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Quan to send him as envoy to the Qinglong Army in order to establish a good alliance treaty, end the tension in Jiangxia, and jointly fight against the powerful Cao Cao.
Zhuge Jin is a peaceful and upright person, loyal and affectionate, understands the principles of the world, and is good at explaining things. In terms of intelligence and military killing, Zhuge Jin is not as good as Kong Ming, but in terms of life and still water, Zhuge Liang is not as good as Ziyu. Wen Cai, both of them are equally good, and both are good talents in the world.
Zhuge Liang asked Lu Chang to recruit the four perverted captains. He took his eldest brother to the door of the study and called softly: "Master, my eldest brother Zhuge Ziyu has been ordered by Jiangdong Sun Ce to come to see you." Zhuge Jin was slightly surprised. Isn't it deeply appreciated by Chen Long? Why is he so cautious? Zhuge Jin had always been on good terms with Sun Quan, and he had never been so disrespectful. Little did he know that Zhuge Liang had just made a big mistake last night and almost lost the city of Chang'an, and he had just been kicked out by his lord today.
Chen Long is closing his eyes in his study. Too many things happened yesterday and he still hasn't closed his eyes. Chen Long was nervously thinking about how to save Diao Chan when he suddenly heard Zhuge Liang calling at the door in a low voice. The content shocked Chen Long. Did Zhuge Jin come to represent Soochow?
Chen Long took a step forward and went out to greet him. He saw that the little Zhuge Jin had grown up, and his appearance was somewhat similar to Zhuge Liang's, but he was dusty and lost a bit of his spirit. He said happily: "Tzuyu is here! I'm almost here." I can't believe my eyes! Come in and talk!" Suddenly, I felt infinite emotion in my heart. I thought back to the time when Zhuge Liang, the fourth child in Shuijing Village, Baima Cave, Yuxi Mountain, joined the Qinglong Army with him, and Zhuge Jin was sent to Jiangdong by Huang Chengyan to assist Sun Ce. , Sima Yi was pointed out by Sima Hui to go to Qingzhou to assist Cao Cao, and the little Pang Tong is almost an adult, right? He must hurry up and let Pang Shanmin appoint this boy to an official position and keep him firmly in his hands. I also thought of the practice of aristocratic families to let their children join various major powers. This is not the case for the Yingchuan Chen family and the Xun family. This kind of game of playing both sides is really detestable.
While Chen Long pulled Zhuge Jin into the study, he ordered Zhong Yao next to him to prepare a banquet to entertain Zhuge Jin. Zhong Yao agreed and said: "My lord, the bodies of Wang Fang's men who were killed by the thieves have been sent over, and they are now lying in the side room."
Before Zhong Yao finished speaking, Chen Long pulled the Zhuge Jin brothers and turned around and left the house again, saying: "Tzuyu, Kong Ming, come with me to do the autopsy." On the way, Zhuge Liang muttered to his eldest brother and told the strange story of last night. , when Zhuge Jin heard that Chen Long had lost his wife, he couldn't help but stick out his tongue in fear. This was really the wrong time.
There were more than a dozen corpses in a bungalow, all covered with white cloth. Chen Long opened it and took a closer look. When he saw that everyone had been pierced by sharp arrows, his eyes turned red. The most obvious evidence is that these arrows are definitely Xiliang iron arrows, and the person who kidnapped Diao Chan is undoubtedly the Xiliang army. It seems that last night while he was still fighting a bloody battle in the eastern suburbs, some Xiliang deserters took a detour to Nancheng and collided with the Diao Chan convoy that arrived at night. The only consolation was that the body of his beloved wife was not found, and Diao Chan was probably still alive.
Thinking that his wife might be humiliated, Chen Long was furious. He turned around and knocked Zhuge Jin away, who was observing with his nose covered. His head hit the door frame, and a bulge as big as an egg immediately appeared on his forehead. Zhuge Liang quickly supported his eldest brother and helped him rub it. Chen Long calmed down and took the two brothers to the front hall of the inn. There was a private room there. Zhong Yao had already ordered people to prepare wine and food.
The dishes were served one after another, and Chen Long remained silent. He only ordered someone to bring a few jars of rice wine and poured a full cup for Zhuge Jin himself. Zhuge Jin did not dare to say anything and drank three drinks in a row with Chen Long. When Chen Long saw the word "Dukang" written in small seal script on the rice wine jar, he couldn't help but feel sad. He thought of Cao Mengde's famous line "Dan Ge Xing" and couldn't help chanting: "Singing to wine, how many things are there in life! For example, the morning dew, the passing sun It’s so painful!~” After chanting, he threw the wine glass and lay on the table and cried a few times.
The two Zhuge brothers were at a loss for a while. They didn't know how to persuade each other, so they had to stand in front of the table and bowed their hands. Chen Long raised his eyes and saw Zhuge Jin's face full of panic, and couldn't help but blame himself: "Tzuyu, sit down! I'm telling you a joke."
Zhuge Jin hurriedly said: "General, don't say that, it's embarrassing for me." After thinking for a while, he said: "In addition to the sharp arrows piercing their bodies, these guards are still in complete costumes. It seems that they have not been through fierce fighting. I think The general's wife probably knew the hijackers and wanted them to let go of her guards, so she ordered her guards not to resist, although in the end she only managed to save their whole bodies. Therefore, Kong Ming's mistress should be fine for the time being. , the hijackers should not harm her."
Just these words woke up the dreamer. Chen Long was thoughtful, and Zhuge Liang became more flexible and said: "What the elder brother said is true! Moreover, Wang Fang is not dead, which also means that the mistress intercedes for him! Wang Fang lives alone, this is Bear the humiliation and bear the burden!”
Chen Long nodded. The big bosses of the Northwest Army that Diao Chan knew were Li Jue, Guo Si, and Li Ru. Li Jue and Guo Si fought with him and were repelled at dawn. Could it be that the person who kidnapped Diao Chan was Li Jue who had oiled his soles? Confucianism? Thinking of this, Chen Longteng stood up, wishing that he could grow wings from his side and lead his special forces division to pursue immediately. However, the road ahead was vast and surrounded by mountains on all sides. Where should he pursue?
Zhuge Jin seemed to see Chen Long's intentions and said: "I have been interested in things like concealment and tracking since I was a child. I am willing to conduct an on-site investigation for the general."
