"Tong Lao said that his little disciple is very talented, and it is indeed true - on the contrary, it is a pity that I only got to know you today."
Just pretend, you have to pretend to the end. Now Lu Qinghou is completely acting like a senior.
Zhao Yun was exaggerated by the other party and showed a simple and honest smile.
Compared to Huang Zhong's sophistication, Zhang Fei's uprightness, Wei Yan's fierceness, and Guan Yu's aloofness, Zhao Yun is definitely considered to have a good temper.
"Thank you for your appreciation, sir...but since Yun already knows your intention to leave, he boldly requests to go with you two——"
"ah……"
As a result...as a result, Zhao Yun suddenly said such a sentence without thinking, and all the postures Lu Qinghou had put on before almost collapsed...
"Sir is Senior Yun, and he has the grace to save lives... Lord, I just need to prepare a copy of the book and inform them - there are still generals such as Guan Zhang and Huang Hansheng in my Lord's army, all of whom are better than Yun.
What’s more, with them by the Lord’s side, it won’t hurt even if Yun stays outside——”
"Ah... no no no... Zilong, actually... I'm not a blacksmith or a nailer. I'm actually a businessman - I came to Soochow to do business. I won't just stay here.
Forget it if you have no fixed abode... If... if something happens to you Zilong, your lord Liu Bei will definitely be angry with me..."
Lu Qinghou pretended to be calm and admonished with seemingly reasonable reasons.
As a result, Zhao Yun bowed his head with great sincerity and said in a sincere tone:
"My lord Liu Bei is a generous and benevolent man. If he knew that it was Mr. Yun who saved Yun's life, he would definitely agree to this approach."
"And just because Mr. Yun is a businessman, Yun should not leave without permission. Mr. I don't know that the mountains and gorges in Huizhou are dangerous, and there are still Shanyue remnants. There are many people who have been robbed on the road from Guiyang to Wujun.
The risk - it’s the little sister... If the husband is worried about the safety of the little sister, Zilong is willing to take the little sister Lingqi to the general, and then Yun will protect the husband."
At first, Lu Lingqi thought it was funny when she saw Lu Qinghou being frustrated and panicked. It was all a lie anyway, so she felt no pressure in her heart. But when she met a sincere person like Zhao Yun, she heard him say that he was going to kill her.
After being sent away, Lu Lingqi also panicked——
The dagger that had been put back in her arms was slowly taken out by her:
"It's about to be exposed..."
Being sent to Jiangling is definitely a risk of exposure. There are now many people who fled Xiangyang in Jiangling. It is normal for Liu Bei not to recognize them, but if they are recognized by others... the consequences are unimaginable.
then what should we do?
Lu Lingqi's current persona is that of a shy little girl who has never seen the world. She can't jump out and refute Zhao Yun and say that she stayed with Lu Qinghou just to protect his safety, right?
Lu Qinghou grabbed the waist of the bad man in front of him, his expression remained unchanged, but his smile was slightly distorted by the pain.
"Lingqi... I'd better keep Lingqi with me. After all, I have personally taken care of him since he was a child. If he is handed over to others and sent to an unfamiliar place like Jiangling, I'm worried that she will be hurt by others again.
Bully…"
"Well, that's right... This is Yun's poor thinking. If there is no husband and no Yun by his side, it would be wrong for my little sister to be alone."
"But... if you stay with your husband and he has to go to Wu County or Kuaiji - what should you do if you encounter danger on the way?"
"this…"
It can only be said that honest people do have a restrained effect on people like Lu Qinghou who talk nonsense.
For a moment, I didn't know how to explain it, but in the end, I heard Zhao Yun say a heavy "hmm"——
"Well, sure enough, I will compile a letter and send it back to Jiangling. In two months, I believe that the lord and the military advisor will be very anxious. After that, Yun Lai will escort Mr. Yun Lai all the way. The safety of my little sister will also be protected by Yun Lai.
ensure!"
Zhao Yun smiled honestly, stood up and patted his chest - indeed, Zhao Yun's handsome and resolute face did not look like a soldier, rather he had the charm of a humble young man, but looking at his figure, although he was smaller than
It's not as exaggerated as Xu Chu's, but it's no less generous than Ma Chao and Yue Jin Zhang Liao.
Lu Qinghou had no reason to question Zhao Yun's force.
But now he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. He originally planned that the fewer people there would be, the easier it would be to move around. Later, after some things delayed his trip, he had to stay near Wuchang - no matter how clever he was, he never expected to go up the mountain to pick a wild vegetable.
I picked up this one of the most famous generals in the Three Kingdoms period...
Seeing Lu Qinghou's hesitation, Zhao Yun was still a little disappointed.
Because he feels that the other party does not trust him very much, which is a sign of indifference.
"Sir, you are worried that Yun will force you to stay with you, but there is no need to do so - you are a free and easy-going person, and do not do to others what you don't want others to do to you. If it were not to repay the Lord for his kindness, Yun would definitely choose to wander around the world.
So Yun has no reason to interfere with Mr.
"After this trip is over, Yun will retire on his own. I hope that Mr. Yun will not have too many worries. If due to Yun's inaction, Mr. Yun will be in danger in the future, Yun, as a disciple, will have no face to face his revered master.
"
Maybe Zhao Yun's words were really sincere to the extreme.
Finally, when he looked up, he saw the moment when Lu Qinghou's brows and legs relaxed.
Lu Qinghou and Lu Lingqi behind him looked at each other, as if confirming each other's opinions, and then:
"In that case, you should contact your lord as soon as possible. We will stay in Wuchang for a while, and then the next stop will be to Wu County -"
"good!"
Zhao Yun agreed quickly, and it was obvious that he was very happy.
After bidding farewell to Lu Qinghou and Lu Lingqi, Zhao Yun walked away on horseback. Before leaving, he greeted:
"Sir, please go back to the mountain tonight, as soon as the weather clears!"
"Well, you go ahead."
Lu Qinghou smiled slightly and said goodbye to Zhao Yun, while Lu Lingqi waved reluctantly.
As the horse went further and further away, Zhao Yun's figure turned into a black dot on the distant horizon, and then disappeared.
——
"Sir, oh no, Mr. Yi, Mr. Yi Xiaotian, what do you think we should do now?"
"Ah hahaha - meeting is fate, meeting is fate, it would be nice to have an extra bodyguard, hahaha..."
"So sir, can you explain why you wanted to save this person at that time?"
"Well-"
Yi Xiaotian smiled angrily, touched his nose and smacked his lips:
"Actually, don't look at my reluctance just now...but, but..."
"If there is a chance that Zhao Zilong can be the cause of the estrangement between the Sun and Liu families, it will only be good for us and not harmful."
Lu Lingqi rolled her eyes at Yi Xiaotian and knew immediately that Yi Xiaotian was talking nonsense.
