Chapter 081 Liu Bei: My son, please bring Princess Jiangdong back to Gong'an as soon as possible so that she can marry me!
"Did you get in?!"
Sun Shangxiang was dressed in red and riding a fierce horse, looking down at Adou.
Adou was intimidated by Sun Shangxiang's aura and dared not go any further. He stood where he was, shivering like a quail in the cold wind.
"Young Master, what do you mean?!" Zhao Yun looked grimly at Liu Wu in the car.
Zhao Zilong originally thought that since Liu Wu was willing to welcome him into the city, the two sides would have something to talk about later. However, the scene before him made him nervous again. He really couldn't figure out Liu Wu's intentions.
Liu Wu looked calm and said, "Uncle, please go into the city first. I have something to talk to Adou about privately."
Private message?
Given the relationship between these two brothers, is there anything private worth talking about?
Zhao Zilong was surprised, and he subconsciously looked at Adou...
A Dou looked pitiful, and was about to ask Zhao Yun for help, but Sun Shangxiang in front of him glared at him fiercely. He shuddered and shut his mouth obediently.
Zhao Yun was not worried that Liu Wu would attack Adou.
Zhao Zilong knew Liu Wu's character very well. This young master was indeed not afraid to use ruthless force when facing a strong enemy, but a mere A Dou... was really not worthy of being attacked by this young master.
What's more, Liu Wu has now captured Cao Cao alive, defeated tens of thousands of Cao's troops, and forced Cao Mengde to cede thousands of miles of land and become a local lord. All of his achievements are earth-shaking events. How could he still care about a seven-year-old child?
Zhao Yun did not hesitate and nodded slowly: "In that case, Yun will go into the city first to wait for the two gentlemen."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xun and Gan Ning came forward and said, "General Zilong, please come in."
At that moment, Zhao Yun, accompanied by Lu Xun and Gan Ning, went to Xiling City.
The closer you get to Xiling City, the more you can see the mottled spots on the city walls. Dark brown paint-like stains are all over the walls. They are traces left after the blood has been blown dry.
It was such a small city like Xiling that was able to withstand the sieges of nearly 100,000 troops of Cao Ren and Cao Cao, and even captured alive the mighty Prime Minister Cao!
Incredible, really incredible!
Zhao Yun stared at Xiling City in front of him in a trance. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lu Xun: "Cao's army is coming fiercely. Cao Ren and Cao Cao led their troops to besiege Xiling twice..."
"Xi Ling is just a small city, but it has never been conquered? I wonder how your army managed to defend Xi Ling?"
Lu Xun smiled faintly: "Nothing special, it's just that the lord personally led us to defend to the death..."
Lu Xun did not hide it from Zhao Yun, or rather, he was intending to intimidate this fierce general from Changbanpo first.
Thousands of Shanyue took turns guarding the four gates...
Then Liu Wu personally went into battle and killed Cao's army after they attacked the four gate towers...
Finally, Liu Wu personally went out of the city, charged into the enemy's center, and captured Cao Ren and Cao Cao alive...
Zhao Yun was shocked to hear all these things. Although he had known about the attack and defense of Xiling City from Zhuge Jin's letter to Kong Ming, the report was too brief after all.
Listening to Lu Xun's detailed explanation, Zhao Yun felt dazed for a moment, and he subconsciously thought of the Battle of Jiangling...
The lord and his men defended Jiangling only because Jiangling was a big city with high walls, which enabled them to deal with Xiahou Yuan's army for a long time.
But even so, the lord only waited until Xiahou Yuan voluntarily withdrew his troops.
If the situation was reversed and the lord was asked to guard Xiling, I'm afraid he would have already fled to Jiangdong for refuge...
While their thoughts were racing, the three of them had already passed through the city gate corridor and entered Xiling City.
Zhao Yun sighed: "Today I know how difficult it is to defend Xiling City. If it weren't for the eldest son..."
boom! ~
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard behind Zhao Yun.
He turned back hastily.
The gate of Xiling city slammed shut!
……
Outside Xiling City.
Rumble~
Liu Wu's carriage was still slowly approaching Adou. Wei Yan rode his horse beside Liu Wu's carriage, looking at Adou in front of him with a playful look on his face.
Tick tock! ~
Big beads of sweat dripped down Adou's white and tender chubby face and fell to the ground.
Zhao Yun entered the city, and his greatest and only support was gone.
Liu Wu in the carriage had a grudge against him. Zhao Yun was not here at the moment. Liu Wu would not...
A Dou was trembling violently all over. He regretted his actions and wished he could grow wings and fly back to Gong'an City to dive into Madam Mi's arms.
If I had known the situation would be like this, no matter how my father coaxed me, I would never come to Xiling.
Xilulu! ~
Finally, Liu Wu's carriage stopped.
Under the hood, Liu Wu glanced at Ah Dou coldly, staring at him until Ah Dou's face turned pale. Then he said calmly, "Back at Changbanpo, General Zilong went in and out seven times before he saved your life."
"But there is one thing you may not know..."
"Whether you believe it or not, if I hadn't been there at Changbanpo, you would have been thrown to the ground by Liu Xuande..."
"He would never be like this. Although he is a little naughty, he is also smart."
Did your father fall down at Changbanpo?
Adou was stunned. He had heard about how Zhao Zilong went in and out seven times to kill his way through Changbanpo and saved his life.
But his father had thrown him down at Changbanpo, but Adou had never heard of it.
impossible,
This is absolutely impossible! My father loves me so much, how could he possibly throw me down? Besides, I was just born and was still a baby. If I fell down, I would not only become a fool, but I would probably lose my life.
It must be Liu Wu who is trying to sow discord between him and his father!
Adou didn't say anything, but Liu Wu guessed what he was thinking from the expression on his face.
"Heh..." Liu Wu just smiled faintly: "Go back and ask the adults at home."
What on earth is this guy talking about?
Adou had some thoughts in his mind, but now was obviously not the time to dwell on this issue.
At this moment, the fear in his heart was suppressed a lot, and he finally remembered that he still had important things to do.
"Before Adou left, my father asked him to give this letter to my eldest brother." Adou tremblingly took out a piece of silk from his sleeve.
Wei Yan rode forward, snatched the silk, and walked to the side of the carriage: "My lord."
Liu Wu took the silk from Wei Yan's hand and unfolded it to see...
in an instant,
The entire Xiling City became quiet.
The scorching sun shines above everyone's head.
A gentle breeze blew by, taking away some of the heat and also blowing the snow-white silk.
Adou looked at Liu Wu who was reading the letter, his face full of anxiety. He didn't know whether he could get back his family business when he came to Xiling this time.
Wei Yan and Sun Shangxiang subconsciously stared at the piece of silk. They were also very curious about what the Emperor's uncle Liu had written to Liu Wu in the letter.
After a long time, Liu Wu finally finished reading the letter, with no expression of joy or anger on his face.
"Master Wen..." Liu Wu casually handed the silk out of the carriage: "Take a look at it too."
"Yes!" Wei Yan was cheered up. He had hated Liu Bei for a long time and wanted to know more than anyone else what was written in Liu Bei's letter.
Wei Yan could not wait to take the silk and unfold it. A line of steady handwriting came into view: [From my son Liu Wu. Since we parted on a snowy night, I have not heard from you. I miss you day and night very much…]
Missing you is painful?
Hey, maybe this big-eared thief must be feeling bitter after seeing Zilie build a great empire while he himself can't even keep the Jiangling City he has obtained?
Thinking of Liu Bei's furious scene, Wei Yan suddenly felt relieved and watched with a gloating look on his face.
[Now that your father has been able to obtain the four counties in southern Jing and establish a foothold in Jingxiang, your son has contributed greatly...]
[Thinking back to the past, if it weren't for my son's help, how could I have had such brave generals as Yun Chang, Yi De, and Zi Long? ]
[On the bank of Tan River, Cai Mao was chasing us very fiercely. If it weren't for my son, my father would have been dead in Tan River! ]
[On Wolong Hill, my son knelt for three days and three nights before Wolong finally took pity on him and came out to assist him in his great cause...]
Everything written on the silk was once Liu Bei's most taboo, and the thing Liu Bei was most reluctant to mention. But at this moment, he laid out every detail.
"This big-eared thief has really lost all his dignity in order to get close to Zilie!" Wei Yan was amazed, but the contempt on his face became more and more intense.
Liu Bei took the initiative to acknowledge Liu Wu's achievements, even putting his own dignity aside. This was something that no one would have dared to think of before.
However, the current situation is not favorable to him, and in order to get closer to his eldest son, Emperor Liu has no time to care about anything else.
[As a father, I heard that my son first defeated Cao Ren, then defeated Cao Cao, and even led thousands of soldiers to break into Cao Cao’s central army, defeated thirty generals in Cao’s camp, and captured Cao Mengde alive. My son’s bravery is truly unparalleled in the world! ]
[It is a pity that my son acted too hastily. Although he forced Cao to cede a thousand miles of land, it was only a small profit. If he had handed Cao to his father at that time, the restoration of the Han Dynasty would be in sight. I should reflect on this matter...]
Self-reflection?
Liu Xuande actually has the nerve to ask Zilie to reflect on himself?
"Ha, ha ha..." Wei Yan laughed out of anger: "How shameless, how shameless!"
"What's the point of talking about self-reflection? It's nothing more than blaming Zilie for capturing Cao the thief but not handing him over!"
Want to capture Cao Cao? Liu Xuande has the ability to capture him himself!
Seizing thousands of miles of land from Cao Cao, this big-eared thief actually regarded it as a small profit? How dare he say that? Didn't Liu Da'er look at how many cities and lands he had taken after running around all these years? !
It turns out that Liu Xuande is still such a villain and shameless!
Wei Yan's face was full of sarcasm as his eyes continued to move across the silk.
[I have been separated from you for a long time and miss you so much. When you see this letter, you will quickly return to Gong'an with Zilong and Adou. In addition, I will also bring the Princess of Jiangdong back with you so that you can marry me...]
[It is not that I am greedy for beauty, but that I want to continue the Sun-Liu alliance. After I bring Sun Shangxiang back to Gong'an, the absurd incident of kidnapping my parents will be forgotten. I will definitely renew the father-son relationship with you...]
What on earth is Liu Da'er thinking? !
Wei Yan stared at the silk in his hand in a trance...
Now that Zilie has established his own foundation, this Uncle Liu actually still fantasizes that Zilie will abandon this thousand-mile land and return to Gong'an?
Are you still dreaming of asking Zilie to bring back Princess Jiangdong and marry him?
He even promised to [reestablish the father-son relationship] with Zilie?
Even Adou in front of him would not believe such words. Did Liu Xuande really treat Zilie as a three-year-old child? !
Is this big-eared thief really old and confused?
Wei Yan just thought it was ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!
Wei Yan's eyes continued to scan the silk...
Judging from the preface in Liu Bei's letter, I'm afraid that Liu Bei will start to carve up Fenlie's territory next.
[…After my son returns to Gong’an, the thousand-mile land north of the Yangtze River must be guarded by someone. You can let your second uncle Yunchang guard Hefei, and your third uncle Yide guard Xiling. These two important places cannot be entrusted with important tasks unless they are from our family! ]
[Father has heard that Wei Wenchang, one of your generals, is currently guarding Jiangling...]
Liu Da'er also mentioned himself?
Wei Yan was stunned, and subconsciously read each word: [This man has a traitorous mind and is a traitor to his master! He must not be allowed to stay, and should be killed immediately, but the troops guarding Jiangling under his command must not be moved...]
The big-eared thief wrote a letter to Zilie, and he was actually thinking about taking his own life! !
Crunch! ~
Wei Yan clenched his hands, holding the silk, into fists, his knuckles cracking.
In an instant, Wei Yan became furious and his face turned black!
My whole body is shaking with anger...
Big-eared thief, big-eared thief! Big-eared thief!! Big-eared thief!! Damn big-eared thief!!! Big-eared thief, you really deserve to die!!
