Chapter 159 Patience

At this time, Lei Yuan sighed in a low voice.

He suddenly waved his hand and said to his subordinates: "You all will part."

The soldiers looked at each other blankly, not knowing what to do for a moment.

They are all simple and distinctive warriors, and they are easily infuriated by the death of the sect leader, and are also trapped in chaos because of Zhuge Liang's words. They feel that what Zhuge Liang said is passionate and seems to be very touching, and they vaguely feel something is wrong, as if the whole thing should not be explained like this.

However... since the little husband gave the order, it would be better to scatter? After all, they waited for the little husband to take some measures and had been waiting for the little husband to take a night. The anger was almost vented, and fatigue began to slowly affect them. Some people began to mutter to the people around them that there was still a piece of land that had not been cultivated today; some people told themselves that it was almost done. In the final analysis, it was the little husband's family business.

This is the normal situation for the common people in Guizhou. They are easy to be confused and tame, they are sincere feelings, and they are good at deceiving themselves. Even if there are many fierce and rebellious people in the Lei family in Lujiang, in the final analysis, they are the same.

"Then... Xiao Langjun, we will go back to the camp..." A famous officer plucked up the courage to look at Lei Yuandao.

Lei Yuan didn't look at him and nodded slightly.

The officer left with relief.

Since someone took the lead, in a blink of an eye, hundreds of people crowded across the street dispersed. Only Guo Jing, He Song, Ding Feng and other camp Simas were still there.

Guo Jing looked a little haggard. That night, he tried his best to appease the soldiers on the verge of outbreak, and did not dare to relax for a moment. By this time, he felt that he could not stand firmly.

He Song had a gloomy face, looked at Lei Yuan and Zhuge Liang.

Ding Feng's face was full of confusion. In fact, he didn't quite understand what had happened from last night to now. When Lei Yuan's order was dispersed, he also wanted to leave, but He Songqiang stayed.

Lei Yuan ignored these subordinates and stared at his feet.

On the newly compacted road surface of Lexiang County, the soil layer peeled off due to the trampling of hundreds of people last night, leaving a small pit. He slowly used his toes to raise the floating soil and filled it with the pit. Unfortunately, it just looked flat. After stepping on it, the floating soil collapsed loosely, and it was still a pit in place.

After a while, he whispered: "Mr. Kong Ming's words are very interesting, but these are all sophistry and can only be used to deceive the ignorant gangsters. My father passed away because he was disturbed by Mrs. Sun's cavalry team. No matter how he explained it, he could not change it."

"This is indeed a sophistry, just to calm the emotions of the soldiers. However, overnight, I couldn't think of a better statement."

Zhuge Liang tightened the white feather fan in his hand, waved it twice, and slowly let go: "In my guess, the death of Sect Master Lei certainly made Xu Zhi angry, but you must know that the Lei family in Lujiang would never break with the Zuo General's Mansion because of this. It was a road to self-destruction. However, the subordinates were excited, so you could not make any ease of opinions, and could only wait for the Zuo General's Mansion to come forward."

"So I came here to celebrate filial piety in the morning. If you need a moral explanation to persuade your subordinates, I will come out to explain to your subordinates early in the morning. If Xuzhi is willing to make things worse, you might as well regard this kind of argument as true. With Xuzhi's prestige in the clan, you should be able to use this to conquer people's hearts and ease the situation. If Xuzhi is unwilling..."

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "I just criticized my words in public for being absurd, and then met with Duke Xuande... These words were originally very flawed, but they could not hide them from those who were interested."

Lei Yuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "I thought General Zuo's Mansion would come up with something more meaningful."

"We understand very well what you want. As long as you can give, you will be able to see it soon!" Zhuge Liang raised his voice slightly: "But you must understand that for the sake of the overall situation, the Zuo General's Mansion must maintain the Sun-Liu alliance, so some things can be done, while some things can be done. This is forced by the general trend, everyone must be patient in the country, the family, and the self."

After a pause, Zhuge Liang said again: "Why don't you understand the truth in this? After all, you are the next sect leader of the Lei clan of Lujiang, not a brave man with blood and energy... Please stop at this time!"

Lei Yuan was silent for a long time.

Zhuge Liang was by his side calmly, and there was no other move except to shake the feather fan occasionally.

Jiang Wan, who was in charge of the funeral ceremony in the mansion, found that Lei Yuan had not returned for a long time, and sent the servants out to check. The servant general came to the door and saw Lei Yuan and Zhuge Liang as if confronted each other. He was so scared that his feet were weak and he almost sat down on the ground. He saw Guo Jing waved his hands again and then rolled and crawled back to the mourning shed.

After a moment, the crying sounds in the monastery gradually stopped, as if a suffocating pressure was covered, forcing everyone to wait for Lei Yuan's final decision.

"Where is the lord?" After a long time, Lei Yuan suddenly asked.

"What?"

"At this moment, the lord may have worked very hard, right?"

Zhuge Liang nodded in surprise and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

He knew in his heart that the situation facing the lord was probably even harder than Lei Yuan imagined. Who would be relaxed if he wanted to carry the burden on this world?

"Liu Da'er, don't run away! Damn it! Eat my sword! I'm going to kill you old dog!" At this moment, Mrs. Sun's angry roar kept ringing in General Zuo's mansion.

Yesterday, Liu Bei rested in the study room of the outer courtyard on the grounds of emergency official duties. The next morning, he sent his personal guards to surround the courtyard where Mrs. Sun's servants were stationed, and killed ten servants who participated in yesterday's horseback. In addition, he took down all the dozens of people involved in the operation and publicly slaughtered them. During this process, these servants resisted with swords and guns, and sent people to ask for help from Mrs. Sun, which almost caused a fierce commotion that affected the entire Left General's Mansion.

Liu Bei immediately returned to the inner courtyard in person, intending to explain to Mrs. Sun.

He hoped that Mrs. Sun could understand how serious the disaster she caused yesterday was; how important the support of the Lei clan in Lujiang was to him; how much benefits would the Zuo General's Mansion pay to balance it. He thought that Mrs. Sun should have been influenced by her and had been exposed to such situations. She should be able to understand that as the leader of a military and political group, she would have to have such a difficult choice. Using a few heads of the attendants to give Lei Xuzhi an explanation was already the result of repeated measurements between him and Kong Ming.

Maybe she would be angry, angry, or even scold, kick and beat her, but Liu Bei felt that she could bear it. After all, it was a couple. As long as she had to endure it for a while, it would be fine.

However, Mrs. Sun did not understand at all. She regarded this as her husband's insult and provocation to her, and then drew her sword and launched a counterattack with the most intense means. Such a counterattack almost cost Liu Bei his life!

Liu Bei's old face turned pale. He gasped like a bellows, held the corner of his robe in both hands, ran desperately, and ran out of the yard.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, Zhao Yun was walking repeatedly worriedly. Seeing Liu Bei come out, he stepped forward and helped Liu Bei: "Lord! Are you okay?"

When approaching Liu Bei, Zhao Yun instantly smelled the smell of blood. He saw the blood on his robe again, and his voice was trembling with shock: "Are you injured? Mrs. Sun, how dare she attack?"

Liu Bei gasped desperately, and after a while, he said, "I really dare to do it! If it weren't for a few close servants who sacrificed their lives to save me, I'm afraid I really wanted..."
