Cao Cao ordered the convoy to rest temporarily, came to Lin Ze, and whispered: "How is the princess?"
Lin Ze was holding Princess Wannian's pulse when she heard Cao Cao's question and said, "It's okay, Brother Mengde, please go ahead. The princess and I have something to say that has betrayed someone."
Cao Cao clasped his hands and said, "Okay!"
When there was no one else around, Lin Ze asked in a low voice: "Princess, what's wrong with your body?"
Princess Wannian said weakly: "Dizziness, abdominal pain, am I going to die?"
Lin Ze said: "The dizziness is normal, the aconite is neurotoxin, and the abdominal pain is because the princess is menstruating!"
In one sentence, Princess Wannian's face turned red all the way to her ears, and her head dropped to her stomach. She said, "It won't last long!"
"It's normal to be wandering all the way, being poisoned, frightened, and having bad days." Lin Ze asked a maid: "Did you bring the princess's underwear?"
A maid bowed and said, "With a belt."
Lin Ze said: "Help the princess take care of it. Menstruation is a good sign, but you must keep it clean and take good care of her."
Just as Lin Ze was about to evade, Princess Wannian hurriedly asked: "Master, how is your injury?"
Lin Ze turned around and smiled and said: "I am a piece of meat on a hob and cannot die. What is your name Liu?"
Lin Ze had wanted to ask this question for a long time. When he read the "Book of the Later Han", there was only one sentence describing Princess Wannian: "The princess was named Princess Wannian in the third year of Guanghe's reign."
For such a ten thousand year old princess, some later time travel novels named her Liu Mu or Liu Ling. Lin Zette was curious about her first name.
Princess Wannian said softly: "My father gave me the name Jin'er, and when I was seven, I was given the title Wannian."
Lin Ze smiled brightly and said: "Your father loves you very much. Other princesses only have titles when they are fifteen, but you have one when you are seven. It is a pity."
Princess Wannian asked: "Why is it such a pity?"
Lin Ze turned around, looked seriously into Princess Wannian's eyes, and said: "There are many powerful princesses from ancient times to the present, but they are all proficient in strategy and dare to face the enemy without being humble or arrogant. I have only seen you. But you don’t know how to protect yourself, you are brave but have no heart.”
When Cao Cao heard this, he turned around and smiled and said: "What kind of chest do women want? Breasts are enough!"
"..."
Lin Ze subconsciously glanced at Princess Wannian, who blushed and covered her chest.
Lin Ze smiled and said: "Don't cover it, you are not fully developed yet. Brother Meng De doesn't like you like this. He likes young women. Jin'er, you can change into men's clothes after you finish cleaning. You are too beautiful. It will be inconvenient on the road."
After speaking, Princess Wannian looked at Cao Cao in surprise, and Cao Cao looked at Lin Ze in surprise. He thought to himself, has Lin Ze known me before?
At nightfall, Lin Ze sat cross-legged and meditated, while Cao Cao played with Lin Ze's Whaling Fork tactical saber with great interest. The material of this short blade was sharper and stronger than Wang Situ's seven-star sword. He tried to use his His sword struck the dagger, but the dagger remained unscathed, but his own sword was broken.
He is truly a hero. Only a hero can be worthy of such a magical weapon.
Lin Ze saw that he couldn't put it down and said, "Brother, you need this sharp blade for self-defense. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if I give it to you."
Cao Cao waved his hands repeatedly and said: "A gentleman does not take away what others like!"
Lin Ze heard this interestingly and asked sideways, "Are you a gentleman?"
Cao Cao suddenly turned over and came to Lin Ze, his eyes gleaming, which startled Lin Ze, "You are in your thirties, can you be more steady?"
"Heroes emerge from troubled times. Dong Zhuo's march into Luoyang, burning, killing and looting, is an opportunity for us to build eternal merits. I, Cao Cao, want to lead troops to the capital to Qing Dynasty. Brother Lin, can you help me?"
Lin Ze regained his energy, took a breath and said, "You tell me, I'll listen."
"After I, Cao Cao, return to Chenliu, I will issue a corrective edict and call on all the princes in the world to raise troops to kill Dong Zhuo. I will serve as the Qing emperor and make lasting contributions to the Han Dynasty. I will be a worthy hero like Huo Guang!"
Lin Ze stared at Cao Cao and was distracted. Whether it was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance, everyone in the world and future generations had misjudged Cao Cao. He was the greatest statesman, military strategist, and strategist in the Three Kingdoms era. He was not a villain. There is ambition, but it is a pity that he underestimated the thief intentions of the princes in the world.
"What do you see me doing? What do you mean?"
Lin Ze smiled and said: "Kings compete for the world, princes compete for territory, officials compete for power, people compete for status, and people compete for food and clothing. What are you fighting for?"
After hearing this, Cao Cao fell into thinking. After a long time, he asked: "What are brothers Lin fighting for?"
Lin Ze pointed at the people and said, "Let them have enough food, clothing and warmth to live a good life!"
Cao Cao stood up and said, "What are you going to do?"
Lin Ze thought of the people who were slaughtered, and the images of their cries appeared in his mind, and he said leisurely: "First fight for food and clothing for the people, then fight for status with the world, then fight for power with the officials, then fight with the princes for territory, and then fight with The king fights for the world, wins the world, and fights for food and clothing for the people!"
Cao Cao took a breath of air, turned around and left.
Lin Ze scratched his head and said, "Am I bragging too much? Doesn't this grandson regard me as his biggest enemy?"
At this moment, Zhongmu County was already in sight, and Lin Ze already knew where he was. He sketched with withered grass on the ground, and in a few strokes he drew the distribution map of the Three Kingdoms and his own location.
He is not only familiar with the Three Kingdoms, he is also familiar with the human history and maps of past dynasties, because the strategy class needs to analyze every battle from ancient times to the present, and the Three Kingdoms is the highlight.
He could no longer wander around for a long time. He had to go to a peaceful place to develop. The climate should be moderate and the people's livelihood should be better. Lin Ze drew a line between Nanyang and Jingzhou and followed this road to find a place that was easy to defend and difficult to defend. Attack the uninhabited land to open up wasteland!
At dawn, Lin Ze told Cao Cao his idea of going to the southeast of Nanyang to resettle these people. Cao Cao clasped his hands and did not stop or hold back.
Through the conversation last night, Cao Cao knew that he would never be able to take the person in front of him under his command.
Lin Ze also felt that Cao Cao was not bad.
The people all heard Lin Ze's words and were overjoyed. The days were finally moving forward. This little hero was going to take him and others to settle down. After a long journey of wandering, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, the gate of Zhongmou County opened wide, and a group of soldiers rushed out, heading straight for him.
The people were so afraid of the current Han Dynasty's army that they were all nervous and did not even dare to take a breath.
Lin Ze and Cao Cao looked at each other and strode towards these people.
The leading general drew his sword and pointed it at Lin Ze and Cao Cao, saying, "I've been staring at you all night, but I didn't enter the city when I arrived at Zhongmou County. Who are you waiting for?"
Cao Cao rolled his eyes and said, "I am just a merchant, my surname is Huangfu!"
At this time, a civil servant came out from a group of soldiers, looked at Cao Cao on horseback, pondered for a moment, and said: "When I was seeking an official position in Luoyang, I met you as Cao Mengde. Why, I don't even dare to use my real name." Did you say that? Capture these people and bring them to Luoyang tomorrow to receive the reward!"
This dialogue sounded familiar to Lin Ze, and he quickly remembered that it was a dialogue in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". It turned out that this was real. I had long heard that Luo Guanzhong drew heavily on "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" when writing this book. 》, it’s so close to official history that it makes people confused about what’s true and what’s false, which is a bit interesting.
In this case, this civil servant should be Chen Gong.
Everyone was escorted into the city, and Lin Ze accepted it calmly because Chen Gong was not a bad person.
The prison is so dirty and messy. Compared with the prisons in many costume dramas, they are like paradise.
The prison was full of water, and there were no beds or tables. There were some weeds piled up in the corner, rats were coming in and out, and fleas were jumping around. In another corner, there was feces and urine left by the previous prisoner, and the smell was pungent. .
Because Liu Jin'er and the two maids had changed into men's clothes and were locked up with Lin Ze, but Cao Cao was the only one in a single room. This made Lin Ze very unhappy. Cao Cao was so awesome at stabbing Dong Zhuo, so it would be useless for me to kill Guo Si, right?
After a while, Chen Gong came, gave the prisoners some wine, pushed them away, and asked Cao Cao: "Dong Zhuo is very kind to you, why did you cause this trouble?"
Cao Cao closed his eyes and said: "The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan! You caught me and sent me to receive the reward. What do you ask?"
Chen Gong glared and said, "Don't underestimate me. I'm different from them. I just haven't met a good master!"
Cao Cao said sternly: "Your ancestors all ate the emperor's food. If you don't think about serving the country, you are just a beast, a beast!"
Cao Cao cursed, but Chen Gong was not angry and said: "Where are you going?"
"Go back to your hometown and raise an army to rebel against Dong!"
Chen Gong's eyes lit up and he said: "Mr. Cao is really a loyal man. I am no longer the county magistrate, so I will run away with you!"
Cao Cao's eyes were originally very sharp, but when he heard these words, his eyes kept turning like a thief.
The people on Lin Ze's side also breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, they had found a good official, and they didn't have to suffer anymore.
Waiting until night, Chen Gong came to the prison, opened Cao Cao's cell door, and said: "Mr. Cao, all the clothes and luggage have been packed. Let's leave now."
The people all stood up and waited to escape with Cao Cao, but what people never expected was that Cao Cao left without even looking back, or even looking at Lin Ze.
Lin Ze couldn't help but scolded: "Cao Cao, are you so fucking unloyal?"
When Cao Cao didn't respond, Lin Ze shouted: "Remember, Lu Boshe is killing pigs, not you!"
No one responded. Lin Ze sat helplessly on the haystack and cursed: "What a fool, I was betrayed twice by this grandson. This grandson is a real grandson!"
Liu Jin'er panicked and said, "What should we do?"
Lin Ze was so angry that his wounds hurt. He looked back at the people and asked, "You have eaten well all the way. Do you have any strength?"
"Ozawa, tell me, what should we do?"
Lin Ze said: "Let's run away too, what else can we do?"
As he spoke, Lin Ze pulled out a thin steel wire from his tactical bracelet. As soon as he reached for the door lock, he saw a group of officers and soldiers coming in holding torches. They shouted: "Cao Cao ran away!"
After confirming that Cao Cao was indeed gone, he didn't pay attention to Lin Ze and chased him out. The people's hearts were in their throats. Seeing that they were out, they felt relieved.
At this moment, a maidservant was crawled on by a mouse. She suddenly screamed "Ah" and attracted several soldiers over. They looked at Lin Ze's team seriously, and suddenly their eyes gleamed and said: "Woman, it's a woman!"
They didn't even open the door lock. They just drew their swords and opened the door lock. They wanted to snatch the girl when they came in. How could Lin Ze get used to this problem of theirs? After knocking these people down in twos and threes, it was impossible to run quietly now. They had to make a bigger noise.
Lin Ze was so angry that he walked out of the prison with his sword, split open all the cells where prisoners were held, and shouted: "Brothers, the soldiers in Zhongmu County are robbing our food and raping our women, rush out. , kill them!"
There were more than 300 people in the prison, all of them brave and ruthless people. They couldn't hold it in any longer. When they saw someone taking the lead, they immediately rushed out...
