Gan Qian had seen Liu Bei a long time ago, but did not disturb his interaction with Adou.
Liu Bei took Adou's little hand and asked affectionately: "You can memorize the thousand-character essay now. I know you are working hard, but you still have to go to bed early at night."
Adou shook his head and said, "Although I can memorize it, I'm not skilled at it. I want to learn from cousin Yuan."
"Everyone has different talents. You don't have to compete with others in everything. You have to be good at discovering your own strengths." Liu Bei comforted.
Lan Yuan and Lan Ji have been smart since they were young, so they wanted Adou to compete with them, just like Xu Shu compares himself to Zhuge Liang, and a rogue horse compares to a unicorn.
"My uncle once said that stupid birds fly first, and diligence can make up for stupidity. As long as I work hard and work hard, I will become a talent." Adou nodded with confidence.
Liu Bei was very pleased to hear this and couldn't help but nod and praise: "A boy can be taught..."
Gan Qian brought the tea soup and saw that her father was kind and her son was filial, and she said happily: "Ziyu once said that the environment can affect others. I didn't believe it at first. Later, after Adou, Yuan'er, and Ji'er stayed for a long time, they really became influenced by them.
I’m not as lazy as I used to be.”
"Mom, I have been very diligent, and A Dou is not yet five years old..." A Dou argued.
"Mom knows that Adou is diligent, so I am praising you to my father." Gan Qian said with a smile.
Liu Bei nodded and said: "My father has seen Adou's changes. Now go back to the house and rest. How can people keep learning at any time?"
Adou continued to argue: "My uncle said that there is no end to learning. You have to live and learn, so how can you stop?"
Liu Bei pointed at Adou and nodded, and said with a dumb smile: "What your uncle said is absolutely true, but if you stop here, you won't stop there..."
"Then I'll go to the couch and recite it again..." Adou raised his head and followed the maid out of the door.
Liu Bei looked at Adou's petite back and sighed: "Adou is even more diligent than I used to be, and his uncle's words are ten times more effective than mine..."
Gan Qian Wan'er smiled: "As the old saying goes, nephews and uncles are on a blind date, and husbands don't have to be jealous of each other..."
"Hahaha, how can a man be jealous? I'm just happy, but..." Liu Bei suddenly felt melancholy when he thought of leaving Jingzhou.
"What happened to the general?" Gan Qian asked.
"Liu Jiyu from Yizhou invited me to come to Sichuan. Now my future is uncertain and my return date is uncertain. I can't worry about Jingzhou. You and Adou should take good care of yourselves." Liu Bei said.
Gan Qian thought for a while and then asked: "Yizhou has high mountains and far away rivers. If the general cannot return for a long time, can I send Adou and his brother to Quanling, where I will have Yuan'er and Ji'er as companions?"
Liu Bei nodded, "Going to Yizhou is a big deal. I also want to ask Ziyu for advice. I have sent someone to ask for help this afternoon. It is estimated that we will be able to reach Jiangling in two days. You can go south with him then."
"Very good." Gan Qian nodded happily.
Now Quanling is Gan Qian's natal family. Instead of being enshrined in Jiangling, she would feel more comfortable returning to her 'natal family'.
At this time, Lu Meng's land and sea army had arrived in the South China Sea, and the situation in Jiaozhou became unprecedentedly tense. Lantian did not expect that Sun Quan would mobilize 20,000 people, so he frequently contacted Lai Gong to understand the situation, and asked Gao Shun to clean up the troops, money and food, and prepare to disguise at any time.
Rush to aid Jiaozhou.
After receiving Liu Bei's summons, Lan Tian suddenly realized that it was time to enter Sichuan. Although the situation in Jiaozhou was also urgent, he felt it was more necessary to go to Jiangling.
When Lan Tian came to Jiangling, Zhang Fei and other generals were deploying troops and horses to Sichuan, while Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu were preparing money and food.
Liu Bei and Lan Tian rode to the Yangtze River. Looking at the turbulent water passing by, Liu Bei said with emotion: "We will enter Shu soon. We have been unable to calm down these days. Since Xinye, I have been accustomed to asking Ziyu when big things happen, so I
I specially summoned you from Lingling."
"Brother-in-law has three military advisors, a chief and a deputy. You can consult us on any undecided matters. There will be no mistakes." Lan Tian said solemnly.
Liu Bei nodded, "Now I have sent many soldiers and horses to Sichuan. In order to prevent Cao's thieves from taking advantage of the situation, troops must be stationed in various places in Jingzhou. I will leave Lu Meng in Jiaozhou to deal with it alone..."
"Don't worry, brother-in-law, I can guarantee that Jiaozhou will be safe in Lingling." Lantian answered with clasped fists.
Liu Bei told him: "With Gao Boping here, I am not worried, but the troops led by Lu Meng will pass through Jingzhou. If someone sees the identity of the trapped troops, Sun Zhongmou may not be able to deal with it. Ziyu must be more cautious..."
Lan Tian nodded: "I can spare it."
"Originally, I wanted to take Kong Ming away with me, but the Jingzhou nobles needed him to appease them. Ziyu didn't want to get close to the nobles in Jingnan, so these people have all gathered in Jiangling..." Liu Bei shook his head and said.
"Which generals does my brother-in-law plan to bring to Shu?" Lan Tian asked.
"I have no worries when Ziyu is in Jingnan. I want to let Yun Chang take charge of Jiangxia and Nanjun. The rest of the generals will follow me to Shu as much as possible. This way, Yizhou can be settled as soon as possible." Liu Bei said slowly.
Lan Tian frowned and replied: "General Guan is both civil and military, and is the best choice for the governor of Jingzhou. However, my brother-in-law must carefully consider the other generals who join Sichuan."
"Why?" Liu Bei asked curiously.
"Liu Zhang invited his brother-in-law to come to Sichuan. I heard that Yizhou discouraged many people. If his brother-in-law brought a famous general like Yide and Zilong to Sichuan, Liu Zhang would be afraid and take precautions. It would be detrimental to his capture of Shu..." Lan Tian explained
.
Liu Bei nodded, "Ziyu's words are very good."
"The newly surrendered people in Jingzhou are eager to make meritorious deeds. My brother-in-law should give them more opportunities to make meritorious deeds. I recommend Huang Hansheng, Wei Wenchang and other generals." Lan Tian continued.
"Ziyu's recommendation must be correct. Is there anything else we should pay attention to?" Liu Bei asked again.
Lan Tian raised his head and thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that Pang Tong died when he entered Shu. It was a pity that such a genius died early. He quickly told: "After entering Sichuan, things will be unpredictable. The siege of the city can be left to Huang Hansheng and other generals. My brother-in-law and military advisors are not allowed to visit dangerous places in person.
It's too late to regret being hurt by Liu Ya.
In addition, in order to prevent the sergeants from becoming acclimatized, students can be transferred from the medical school to accompany the army. If the Jiangling Medical School is short of manpower, I will ask Mr. Yuanhua to transfer students from Quanling."
Liu saw General Lantian's serious face and said with a smile: "Ziyu is really cautious. I also know that things are impermanent, so everything is up to you."
When Lantian saw Liu Bei's relaxed expression, he was worried and warned him: "Pang Shiyuan is as famous as Kong Ming, but he has only been with his brother-in-law for a short time. I'm afraid that he will be eager to make meritorious deeds and sacrifice his life to advance lightly. My brother-in-law must let him be careful and don't let him appear."
In dangerous territory."
Regardless of whether he was shot by Zhang Ren at Luofengpo or died from a stray arrow, he had to try his best to avoid it. It was not easy for Liu Bei to build up the current lineup of counselors.
Liu Bei understood now. Lan Tian had been talking sincerely for a long time. It turned out that he was worried that Pang Tong was greedy for power and rashly advancing. He secretly remembered in his heart that Lan Ziyu's words were accurate. After so many things that had come true, Liu Bei's opinions on him were
Don't dare not pay attention to it.
People like Zhuge Liang and Lan Tian who have mastered the power of ghosts and gods can always feel at ease by asking questions before encountering big things.
In the end, Lan Tian found an excuse to borrow Luma, completely leaving the props that influenced Pang Tong in Jingzhou.
