Hua Xin's reason was so powerful that Sima Yi was speechless for a long time...
Co-author: At such an old age, you still have a "human race"?
Looking at the singer's profile, one can indeed see some signs of pregnancy on her figure.
Although Sima Yi wanted to remind Hua Xin that it is not certain whether he is your "seed", but now Sima Yi obviously has no interest in discussing this, and just wishes Hua Xin "happy to have a son" without sincerity...
But after Hua Xin left for a long time, the more Sima Yi thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong!
Based on the values of those Chu people, I wish him "a happy son", shouldn't he in turn promote "equality between men and women" to himself?
Of course, among the Chu people, even among the scholar class, they were not so quick to make everyone accept this - the one who is "happy" must have a noble "son".
However, as a veteran of the Chu State, Hua Xin should not let go of any opportunity to demonstrate the correctness of the Chu State's court!
Sima Yi later recalled the singer...
Now think about it, as a singer, her figure seems a bit too tall?
Just because he had everything he needed, and his face was smeared with makeup, Hua Xin even said "the race cannot be lost" and choked himself, so he didn't take a closer look!
It's not that Sima Yi was careless, but that from the beginning, he didn't think that Liu Bei would dress up as Hua Xin's singer to seek escape.
If it was a true "escape", Liu Bei would still be a hero for a while, and he still had the ancestral genes of the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, so it would be normal for him to be "obscene".
If it were Sima Yi himself, he wouldn't worry about "women's clothing" if it was profitable.
But can leaving with Hua Xin be considered a complete escape?
Just because you want to go to Chu State to be a "hostage", you choose to dress in women's clothing? This is not a matter of flexibility, but a matter of humiliation!
It is precisely because of this blind spot that Sima Yi did not think about this before, but now...
"Come here! Please lead the troops personally, my lord, and quickly ride General Hua, and all the people who are traveling with you... please come back!" Sima Yi immediately issued the order.
As the lord, Zhang Yan readily accepted Sima Yi's "suggestion" and led his cavalry to pursue him towards Ziwu Valley.
However, after all, it had been a long time, and not long after Hua Xin and others left Chang'an, they used various excuses to urge the escorting Zheng Jun to speed up. Because he did not want to offend Hua Xin, the "escort" Zheng Jun had also been instructed to try his best to satisfy Hua Xin.
Requirements along the way.
Chang'an is only thirty miles away from the northern end of Ziwu Valley.
Zhang Yan chased all the way to the entrance of Ziwu Valley and saw no trace of Hua Xin. However, he learned from the defenders that Hua Xin had arrived half an hour ago...
Zhang Yan was actually relieved at first. After all, it was only half an hour. Xu Huang had to be polite to Hua Xin no matter what, so he wouldn't have been sent back in half an hour, right?
Unexpectedly, when he quickly sent someone to inform Xu Huang that he must not be released, it was still a step too late. When Xu Huang got the order, the small team escorting Hua Xin had already left for two-quarters of an hour, but Li Kuan and his relatives returned.
exist.
It turned out to be Hua Xin, who was worried about Sima Yi's reaction and didn't want to arouse suspicion, so he used the excuse that "singer Liu Beibei" had a fetal abnormality and ordered Xu Huang to be sent to the Chu army immediately - because the Chu army's doctor
The equipment is the most comprehensive.
Even if there is no obstetrician, there are at least medical students with a solid foundation who can handle this situation.
Therefore, Liu Beibei and the worried Hua Xin were immediately sent back to the opposite side by Xu Huang... After all, Xu Huang didn't want anyone to have trouble in his camp!
It would be a bit unnatural for Li Kuan and others to leave in a hurry at this time, so they were still going through the process without being anxious. It was at this time that Zhang Yan arrived...
Although Fazheng and Wei Yan were not angry with Hua Xin, they saw Wei Jun escorting Hua Xin and a woman who seemed to be in need of treatment. They hurried over and also rushed over immediately.
Zhang Yan originally sent a signal before Hua Xin arrived at the Chu army camp, and even beat drums to march, but it was still a step too late. Even if Wei Yan didn't know what happened, he still personally led the cavalry as soon as he received Hua Xin's signal.
Welcome people back!
Before the escorting Zheng army could react, the Chu army pounced on them like wolves and tigers, and they had to immediately make a gesture of surrender...
"Eh? This is...Mrs. Hua?" Wei Yan looked at "Liu Beibei" in amazement.
"Go back first." Hua Xin looked at Liu Beibei and then said calmly.
It seems not good to reveal Liu Bei's identity at this time. It is better to wait for Liu Bei to change his outfit before discussing it in detail with Fazheng, Wei Yan and others.
Of course, Hua Xin did not forget to whisper to Wei Yan: "Be careful not to let him get away."
Wei Yan:???
Are you originally this kind of person? Chu State does not advocate this!
"His identity is very important!" Hua Xin saw Wei Yan's reaction and glared at him angrily.
Yes, this "Liu Beibei" is indeed Liu Bei pretending to be...
If he was just trying to survive as a hostage, Liu Bei would never do such a humiliating thing. Unless it was for the sake of justice and the world, it would not be considered humiliating.
However, this time when Liu Bei heard the news of Liu Xie's death, he was not only angry, but also... vaguely guessed what Sima Yi wanted to do next.
Directly mourning Liu Xie at this time, without being able to show evidence that Liu Bei is not dead, is tantamount to admitting that Liu Bei is dead. Zhuge Liang will look fine at Longyou, but Zhang Fei, who is in charge of Qingxu, may not be so easy to calm down.
!
Facing Sima Yi, who committed regicide and wanted to scheme against his third brother, Liu Bei's resentment towards him exceeded the level of an "enemy".
Under the influence of this strong personal emotion, Liu Bei decided that even if he lost his integrity, he would come to Chu State - at least it would be better than "die".
At this time, Zhang Yan watched helplessly as the "suspicious singer" that Hua Xin and his military advisor talked about returned to the Chu army's main formation.
Zhang Yan is usually the type who is very confident in his own force, but he obviously does not think that he can rush into the Chu army and pull people back!
And when Zhang Yan returned to the army and wanted to make a long-term plan, Fazheng had also sent a "messenger" to ask Zheng Jun to release Li Kuan and his family immediately.
"My Lord, Li Kuan is just an insignificant role. His significance to the Chu State is just to show off that they do not abandon his own people. There is no actual help. There is no need for them..." Xu Huang understood very well and persuaded Zhang Yan.
Take advantage of the situation and release Li Kuan.
Because he had surrendered to Marquis Zheng, he still called Zhang Yan "Lord" even though it was Sima Yi who asked him to surrender.
"That makes sense! I...ask the military advisor." Zhang Yanqi said solemnly.
Xu Huang:......
At the same time, Liu Bei was in the military camp, hoping to persuade Fa Zheng...
It's not that I want to persuade him to surrender to me out of imagination, but I hope that Fazheng can immediately coordinate his actions instead of asking him to go to Jinling to meet the King of Chu first, otherwise it will be too late!
Of course, Liu Bei also knew that given his status, such a request was a bit excessive, so he decided to analyze the matter for Fa Zheng from the perspective of Chu State's interests and so on.
Liu Bei believed that Fazheng should be able to speak clearly, and he also expected Fazheng to be able to act decisively when the opportunity arises.
However, before Liu Bei could speak, he was invited to the back of the military camp, into a "high tower" that seemed to have just been built, and a strange "helmet" was stuffed inside...
