12. Lu Ziqian intertwined with anger and helplessness
"Meow hahaha! I, Li Shushi, am back!"
"when……"
Quietly putting away the mysterious flat object in her hand, Su Xiaololi hummed a beautiful song while looking at the blue sky in the distance. Of course, the girls behind her, including Nero-chan and Zhen Xiaololi, were all there.
Laughed out loud.
The location where everyone is now is the intersection of the Wuding River, the largest tributary of the Yellow River in Shuozhou, and its tributary Qiangma Water, which is the area under the jurisdiction of Suide County, Yulin City in the future. And when you get here, you have definitely entered the Xihe River
County boundaries.
Although Banfu's Western Region Protector requires the emperor's personal appointment and edict to be effective, Li Shushi should at least go to Chang'an to find the young emperor to make a record. However, Li Shushi knew very well that if he went to Chang'an at this time, he would definitely fall into the trap of those with different intentions.
The scheming ministers had set up a dragnet, so he directly chose to pass through Chang'an.
Anyway, asking Fei Xiong Jun to bring his memorials to Dong Zhuo for Dong Zhuo to do would make things easier.
As for whether the process was a bit rough, that's not what Li Shushi needs to worry about.
Since we have chosen to take a detour, the most convenient route is naturally from Zuofengyi to Hedong via Pubanjin, and then from Hedong up the Fenhe River to Taiyuan, or through Jiguan to Hanoi County to take a walk to express condolences to the frontline soldiers.
Either way, they are good choices.
However, now that he has arrived at Zuo Fengyi, Li Shushi has been reminded of some memories of the past, making him miss the places he fought and the people he fought side by side with, so he handed over the troops to
Reluctantly, Hua Xiong and Li Shushi took his friends on a family visit trip that he named "Washing Away the Long March Road".
"Firstly, I am not a criminal, and secondly, I have never participated in similar activities. Why do you insist that I follow you and leave my hometown?"
And in such a joyful atmosphere, there was only one person who was very resentful. But for some reason, he could only mumble in the corner and did not dare to shout out, which seemed very unusual.
"Humph~ If my lord hadn't rescued you in time, you might have been beaten to death in prison. But now you not only don't know how to be grateful, but you often say resentful words. It's very common to do this.
It’s not authentic.”
"Although I did have some issues with Xu Boji. But Xu Boji is not a person who violates the law. I was flogged because I didn't do a good enough job, so he took advantage of it. This will actually encourage me to do better in the future.
"
The behavior of the strange young man obviously aroused the dissatisfaction of another relatively familiar young man, but maybe it was because of his eloquence, or because of the strange young man's saint-like performance. In short, it was just.
After just a few arguments, the familiar young man was at a loss for words and gradually fell behind.
"Sure enough, my cousin's fighting ability is so weak. It's true. Don't say I'm your cousin in the future. I can't afford to embarrass that person~"
"Well, Yang Fu, I've always loved you in vain, but now I'm helping outsiders speak for you!"
"Compared to Ah Ji, you, my cousin, who is always trying to trick me, are really not better da☆ze."
"Don't learn some weird things from your lord! And please return my lovely cousin quickly!"
"Sure enough, it's not easy to be a normal person in this team..."
Facing the two brothers playing tricks on one side, the strange young man looked up at the sky at a 45° angle with a speechless face and shed two lines of kelp tears.
"Haha, don't be discouraged De Rong, you will definitely like this place over time."
"I have to leave my cousin name to my parents or teachers. You are not qualified to give me a cousin name. So I don't want De Rong. Calling me De Rong makes me feel like my legs are about to be broken.
It’s not because it’s so unbelievable that such a good word comes from your mouth, so I instinctively want to reject it!”
Seeing the strange young man gritting his teeth and stamping his feet, Li Shushi suddenly had the urge to show a melancholy and sunny expression, although the more reason was because of the red "big steamed bun" rising above his head at this moment.
”.
"Well, it looks like another poor boy has been ruined by you." Su Xiaololi said thoughtfully from the side.
If you are thoughtful, you sister! Don’t give me high fives with your fists and look like you’re suddenly enlightened!
"In short, you have signed a 'deed of sale', and you will be prepared to work for me until you die for the rest of your life."
Like the despicable Huang Yan, Li Shushi showed an evil face towards the helpless Xi X, while the strange young man he stared at like a little fat sheep couldn't help but show "It's not too late to regret."
expression.
"Hey...it's all caused by youth..." The young man finally fell down slumped, just like that one.
This strange young man was Li Shushi's unexpected gain when he left Fengyi (Fog).
Although he originally came from a poor family, his family was quite wealthy, so he was well educated. From the age of sixteen, he used the power of money to find a position as a minor official in the state and county, hoping to use it to gain a position in the bureaucracy.
He is a familiar person in the circle, and secondly, he hopes to learn more skills through this relationship. Of course, it would be even better if he could grow up to be a high-ranking official or a master of public affairs in Beijing.
The young man is obviously an ambitious young man. He has not lost his motivation to move forward because of his wealthy family. He is not only charitable, but also very experienced in dealing with others. The most important thing is that he is very willing to study. If this situation develops like this
If you go on, even if you can't get the official position, you won't be promoted as a filial and honest person immediately when you reach adulthood, but it is conceivable that such a person will not be buried in the local area.
but……
Perhaps because the young man performed so well, he gradually became a thorn in the side of some young disciples of the Zuo Fengyi family. Not only did he start to make things difficult for them at work, but he also continued to spread unfavorable rumors about them.
What's more, a descendant of an aristocratic family named Xu Ying, because he was jealous of the other's ability, made a small mistake and took the opportunity to ask the young man's superior to punish the young man with whipping, which he personally carried out.
At this moment, Li Shushi also appeared in the government office.
So, after some small twists and turns, under Li Shushi's order and with the cooperation of two fox-level figures, Su Xiaoluoli and Jia Xu, the poor young man was "sold" to Li Shushi and tied up by Li Shushi.
Your own chariot.
"So, Zhang Ji, what's wrong with following me? You said that you suffered hardships and took the blame for Feng Yi. Other children from aristocratic families always find opportunities to suppress you and bully you. But what about me? I trust you.
You, trust your talent, trust your character, in my
Here you can continue to work as a minor official and accumulate experience. You can also browse the precious collection of books and study with those old Confucian scholars. Moreover, as long as your performance meets the requirements, you still have a chance to be promoted as filial and honest~ On Feng Yi's side
No matter how you look at it, it’s impossible.”
Therefore, Li Shushi said that he has tried this kind of deception by taking advantage of information asymmetry.
"I'm doing it for my studies, I'm doing it for my studies. I'm doing it for my studies..." Zhang Ji's shoes could only comfort himself in this way.
Of course, there was another person squatting on the ground and drawing circles, Jiang Xu, who was despised by Yang Fu.
Unlike other young people from Hanyang, these two finally chose to stay with Li Shushi and go to Taiyuan. In fact, Xiao Yang Fu originally had such thoughts, even though Fu Xie was indeed a famous person in the country, but after hearing
The picture described by Li Shushi of "a massive collection of books and a large number of famous Confucian scholars"
The pie made little Yang Fu's heart fly to Jinyang long ago, and because Jiang Xu was asked to take good care of his little cousin before leaving, he followed him contentedly. After all, he could follow his idol.
No matter how you look at it, it is a very fortunate thing that Long Jiang and the superstar Xiao Qiang continue to hone their martial arts skills.
As for the work of reporting to the family, it can be left to those who have the friendship of comrades. Even if they do not go back to report, the relationship between the two families and Bingzhou, where Li Shushi is located, will do their best to support Li Shushi's plan.
.
"As expected of Lu Ziqian, it has only been a long time, but Shangjun has already regained a lot of vitality."
Go north along Luoshui, reach Gaonu, and then turn northeast. Although most of the scenery along the way is dotted with green earthy yellow and crisscrossing ravines, compared to a few years ago, you can often see more scenery along the way.
Seeing farmland being cultivated and some other traces of human activities show that human activities are very frequent in this area.
The reason why I say this is because except in Gaonu City, Li Shushi basically didn't see many living people. He could even see fires still burning on the roadside, indicating that there were signs of human activity here just now.
.
After all, even if the large army is handed over to Hua Xiong, Li Shushi still has a huge number of friends around him - the total number of personal guards of the generals alone is over a thousand, and coupled with the female relatives and the like, this team is far away.
It looks quite scary from a distance.
The south of Shangjun is close to Sanfu, but because it is protected by mountains and rivers, few enemies are willing to go deep here, so there are no defensive facilities such as forts in this area. Therefore, although the people here are not lacking in vigilance, they are facing
When faced with possible enemies, more people choose to hide instead of hiding in Wubao to prepare for battle. This is quite different from the common people in Yanmen and Yunzhong.
If it weren't for the fact that Lunucheng couldn't escape, and Li Shushi had a seal that could prove his identity, maybe it would be more troublesome for Li Shushi to get enough supplies in Lunucheng. But because of Li Shushi's efforts in other places,
There was no chance to explain at all, so we could only acquiesce in the occurrence of this situation.
Of course, because Lunucheng did not misunderstand Li Shushi, they did not report it to Fushi County, the upper county seat. This saved Li Shushi one less troublesome thing, but also made them make a fuss again when they arrived at Mengmen Pass.
Jump.
Fortunately, Li Shushi may not have been in Xihe for too long, but his influence is still there, so it is similar to Lu Nu's situation, and this time there are a few more Mengmenguan defenders who still remember him, so in the end
There wasn't any big fuss.
However, this also made Li Shushi feel quite embarrassed. After all, this Mengmen Pass was rebuilt under his vision, and many low-level officers guarding it were also members of the Xihe Civil Defense System. Nowadays, several
Years have passed, and things have changed. Only the solid city gates and the surging Yellow River remain the same, accompanying each other to watch the sunrise and sunset again and again.
"Looking at your appearance, I can tell that you have done a good job in the Western Regions. It is really a blessing for our country to have young people like you emerge in such troubled times. Yizhen and I have finally done a good thing.
.”
"Mr. Lu...you, what's wrong with you? Why are you so haggard after not seeing you for several years? This..."
But when Li Shushi saw Lu Zhi, even though he had already expected it, he was still shocked by Lu Zhi's current appearance. After all, the Lu Zhi in Li Shushi's impression was still the handsome, tall and handsome man.
Although the hair has begun to appear on his head, it does not detract from his demeanor, but adds a bit of mature charm to him. It can be said that the Lu Zhi in memory is a mature and steady middle-aged handsome man, who belongs to Ma Long Bailan.
level of that level.
But what about Lu Zhi who appears in front of him now?
If one word must be used to describe Lu Zhi now, then there is no more suitable word except the word haggard.
The completely gray hair has lost its former luster, the sunken eye sockets and the wrinkled gray skin. The most important thing is that it gives people the feeling of dying, as if the next moment the old man who once supported Li Shushi toughly will
Fall down.
Is this still the Lu Zigan in my impression?! This is still the Lu Zigan who made the Xianbei, Xiongnu and other Hu tribes dare not fight head-on and fought and retreated, almost regaining the entire old territory of Bingzhou, and whose skillful skills made the Hu people worship him.
What?!
What happened to make this old man who was originally in his prime and could fight for at least ten more years according to Su Xiaoluoli's estimation, turned into the look he now has?
In Li Shushi's opinion, even if his lover really died, Lu Zhi's sentiments of always serving the country and the people would not show such a drastic change.
"The right way! What happened to Mr. Lu? Who made Mr. Lu look like this! Who is it?"
Originally, Li Shushi had not noticed Qu Yi hiding behind Lu Zhi in the crowd greeting him. After all, Lu Zhi's appearance was too shocking. However, as one of the few powerful figures in Shuozhou, Qu Yi's presence was
no matter what
It could not be concealed, and Li Shushi also found Yunzhong Prefect Zhang Yan and his old subordinate Guan Cheng, who were also acquaintances beside him. They were supposed to be completing their own work in various parts of Shuozhou and they all gathered in Lishi at this moment.
…
It seemed like something happened that Li Shushi didn't know about but was very important.
Li Shushi glanced at Jia Xu behind him, but Jia Xu gave Li Shushi a helpless look in return.
But Li Shushi also noticed that Jia Xu's eyes contained some kind of indescribable information.
Obviously this old fox should have known something, but for some reason he was unwilling to tell himself.
However, for a qualified time traveler, this kind of information is enough for him to think of enough things.
"God damn Thief Dong! He actually did something so outrageous to both humans and gods. I, Lu Ziqian, will be at odds with him!"
That thing finally happened.
Such a fact made Li Shushi feel sad for a moment.
He thought that he had brought the emperor to Chang'an. He thought that Dong Zhuo had transported all the officials and people to Chang'an in advance. Then an empty Luoyang city would have no value except for its symbolic significance. In other words, even if it is more valuable, it is
It can become a forward position for attacking Li Shu's real territory, rather than an area controlled by Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo, who had no burden and could retreat calmly, did not need to burn the ancient capital as he had done in history, because not only did this have no practical significance, but it also completely pushed Dong Zhuo into a situation that the world could not tolerate.
No, not to mention that Mr. Lu, who has always been loyal and patriotic, couldn't bear it. Even Li Shushi, who heard the news, couldn't accept it. Even if he hadn't known that Luoyang was now an empty city, Li Shushi would have wanted to light a sky lantern for Dong Zhuo*
*.
Dong Zhuo's behavior really arouses hatred! The hatred has already exploded, isn't it?
"Please calm down, Mr. Lu. Although I don't know what Dong Zhongying did, after all, His Majesty is still in Chang'an. If Mr. Lu goes to war with Dong Zhuo like this, is there any difference between him and those Guandong princes who ignore His Majesty? Their reputation is legitimate.
Only then can you speak fluently!"
This kind of words is just for people like Lu Zhi. In fact, looking at the curled expressions of the people behind Lu Zhi, Li Shushi knew how unconvincing his words were.
Although I know that my lvl of talking skills is too low, if you do it so obviously it will still hurt my heart!
"Humph, do you want to imitate those political strategists to persuade me? You kid, stop daydreaming. But you have a saying that I like very much - 'If your name is not right, your words will not be right'. If His Majesty does not have enough
Even if you overthrow Thief Dong, it will only allow others to take advantage of the opportunity. Humph! That’s why I am going to Chang’an to protect His Majesty with my old bones until His Majesty grows up enough to rule the world!”
"Go to Chang'an?! Dong Zhuo can you, Mr. Lu, lead the troops to Chang'an?!" Although he wanted to refute Lu Zhi's comments about him, Li Shushi's attention was quickly attracted by other things, and he even exposed himself unconsciously.
A look of surprise.
"His Majesty, who just came here two days ago, ordered me to go to Chang'an to be a Sikong. Humph! Don't think that I don't know what Thief Dong's idea is, but it just suits my wishes. So, Shu Shi, you
Also think about it and see who would be better off handing over Shuozhou in the future."
Although he said that, Li Shushi still noticed the helplessness and melancholy hidden in the excitement in Lu Zhi's words.
In fact, if you think about it, you will know what kind of wishes Ling Emperor Liu Hong had for the generals of Bingzhou (former). However, during this period, Li Shushi had just opened up the situation and was transferred out for various reasons. He stayed as his successor.
Lu Zhi took Li Shushi's gun and
We have been fighting hard until now. But when we saw that the situation was getting better due to Lu Zhi's efforts and Li Shushi's influence, and we were ready for the final ending, something like this happened again and interrupted the original rhythm. It's no wonder
Lu Zhi will feel sorry and reluctant to leave.
Of course, with Li Shushi's current ability, it is not impossible to take over Lu Zhi's gun and complete all this. However, Li Shushi will soon discover that maybe the situation is not as good as he thought, and maybe Lu Zhi is actually
It's not necessarily true that I threw a very troublesome stall to him.
But now, all Li Shushi's energy is focused on how to appease Mr. Lu Zhi, who has always been very excited.
Of course, he didn't notice the slightly strange expression on Jia Xu's face behind him.
But Qu Yi, who saw and was familiar with this expression, couldn't help but shuddered, which made Zhang Yan beside him feel an inexplicable shiver.
The sky in Shuozhou seems to be about to change a lot... (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
