Guo Jia surprised to be surprised, but did not express any opinion on this matter, but is laughing and chatting with Yan Qing about other interesting things: another Yan Qing cried and laughed is that the always straightforward and rigid Xu Shu somehow, with Guo Jia dug like, busy also did not forget to take the time to reprimand him for misbehavior, last night went to a trip, and then this morning went to a trip.
And Guo Jia has gone from being annoyed for the first time to coping with the situation with ease.
As the two of them sipped tea and chatted happily, Yan Qing habitually pulled the topic to Lu Bu, "I wonder what the Lord went out of the house early in the morning for?"
Guo Jia, however, asked, "Did Chong Guang ever mention the matter of Deng Yong Sun Bo Fu to him?"
Yan Qing said, "Naturally, it was originally an appointment to go together today." Speaking of this, he had a flash of light and said in consternation, "Could it be ......"
Guo Jia looked at the slight greenness under Yan Qing's eyes without a trace, nodding his head to affirm his guess: "Mostly to save you the effort of making this trip."
Yan Qing was puzzled, "How is it that the Lord suddenly thinks so highly of him that he can't even afford to wait for Qing to get up and wash himself?"
Early in the morning quietly and silently went, if not Lu Bu last night when he heard him talk about Sun Ce, still a blankly unaware of his people, let him do the work of the lack of interest, Yan Qing almost also want to believe that he is to see through the potential of the little king of the hegemony, and only abruptly up the heart of the love of talent.
Guo Jia lazily said, "Perhaps the Lord sympathizes with Shiguang's day and night labor, or ......"
Yan Qing was confused, while Guo Jia raised his eyebrows with an inscrutable smile, putting the tea bowl down, his right hand stretched out, palm facing up and spread flat, three of his fingers together, making a demanding gesture of hooking and folding back.
Yan Qing read his meaning and smiled coldly, unconcerned, saying, "The Lord's mind is unpredictable, would he allow his ministers to pry into it so easily? There is no harm in not knowing."
In order to satisfy this curiosity, he had to send this insatiable gourmand in wine a fine wine, and it would be a hell of a thing if Yan Qing would agree to it.
Even if you want to wine unsuccessful, to Guo Jia that strange thick skin, is also half of the traces of shame, only undisguised regret to stretch back to the hand, a turn of phrase: "Two ladies are still in Xu City?"
Lu Bu since the letter, is non-stop thousands of miles, not to mention that he has been a long time not to enter the original only in the posture of the people, but also the suspicion of the two old lady's bedchamber, but also does not seem to be as absurd as the history of the good sex, even if he had a whim to bring the intention of the tender wife and daughter can not withstand all the way to rush through the pain of the running of the army.
But ask this is a glimpse and see the whole panorama of the ghost of Guo Jia, Yan Qing can not help but be cautious for a few points: "Precisely. Can there be something wrong?"
His mind instantly turned to Wei and her brother Wei Xu.
Since that back to the black complaint unsuccessful, anti-reviled beatings, Wei continued to be completely loved and hated by the distinctive Lv Bu abandoned, although he did not take away his job, but was no longer used.
Yan Qing know that thing no matter how blame should not be blamed on his head, but certainly will be angry a pass, is also secretly prepared. Unexpectedly, they seem to lay down, and then no action, is indeed very abnormal.
At the thought of what plots they might be brewing, Yan Qing, who had read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms countless times, was the first to think of raising an army to rebel - could it be that they wanted to take advantage of the fact that Lu Bu was on a trip, and that Jia Diao and Zhang Liao were presiding over the overall situation and were distracted by the lack of time and effort to start a revolt at this opportune moment? Is it to take advantage of the fact that Lu Bu is traveling, Jia Diao and Zhang Liao are in charge of the situation and are distracted by the fact that they are not able to do anything?
Guo Jia is like an insight into Yan Qing's mind, smiled and said: "Chongguang is overthinking! Just worried about the Lord's knee thin, is in the rich and strong, but because and Mrs. get together little away from a lot, only a daughter, it is difficult to call a person's heart. Chongguang has thought of sending someone to bring Mrs. here?"
"As a vassal, how can Qing interfere in the affairs of the Lord's backyard? It is really not the way of a vassal."
Yan Qing calmly took a sip of tea and did not intend to get involved in this mess, not from the reason that he realized that he held ulterior motives against Lu Bu.
He is certainly concerned about Lu Bu's heir, but as a strategist, he is already a big tree, and repeatedly advocate change, I do not know how many people cut off the road to promotion and wealth, and recruited a lot of people whose interests are damaged by the grudges, and currently rely on, in addition to his own saved prestige, is Lu Bu's unreserved support and trust.
All close between the master and minister have a honeymoon period, the latter currently look solid, Yan Qing also dare not easily to test it, will hand into the Lord's backyard this can be big or small, but he is in this sensitive moment, but also in the position of the machine, if this time to cross the line unfortunately touched Lu Bu which sensitive nerves, he is the real more than he can afford to lose.
Guo Jia mentioned this proposal, but is eight parts of the test, two parts of the joke, see Yan Qing categorically rejected, his heart bright, a clear understanding of the two ladies of the name of the embarrassing situation, and laughed: "Lord often stayed here, but see Chongguang House of which beautiful maidservant, but it is not good to speak?"
Yan Qing subconsciously wanted to retort, but after a moment's deliberation, he vaguely felt that there were a few points of truth, in addition to drunkenness, why would Lu Bu, who was generally unprofitable, want to rely on his bed for anything and everything?
But he will be close to the appearance of the maidservant in his mind after a circle, will be this speculation to veto seven or eight: "Feng Xiao do not know, in the past, Wang Yun has a woman named Diao Cicada, dance appearance of the two best, there is the reputation of the closed moon and shy flower, the Lord still refused, and how would it be compared with the appearance of the district but mediocre maidservant heartbeat, but also roundabout reserved to this? "
Lu Bu, even if the heavier female sex, vision is also extremely high, choose to drink and choose to eat very much, non-national color Tian Xiang, it is impossible to confuse to move him.
"After all?"
Guo Jia muttered, abruptly putting his heavy fan away in thought.
He didn't sit for long before something came up and he had to excuse himself.
"By the way, you and wait for a while," Yan Qing suddenly remembered the bedtime reading book that Guo Jia had left behind in his bedroom, and personally went to fetch it out, handing it over to the other party in a nice voice: "Didn't forget anything else, did you?"
Guo Jia immediately saw that the pages of the book has been turned traces, not moving to gather the book into the sleeve, and then smiled and said: "Chongguang but read it?"
Yan Qing glanced at him warily and immediately clarified, "Yet I have not touched a single bit of it, only that the Lord turned it over and looked at it for a few moments."
Guo Jia blinked, "Oh, did the Lord say anything?"
Yan Qing said without thinking, "He said that the notes you made were quite desirable and intended to use them."
See Guo Jia reveals an intriguing smile, the look is completely unsympathetic, Yan Qing suddenly had a bad premonition, hesitantly said, "This is ...... exactly."
Guo Jia did not reply, but bluntly flipped the book to the latter half, and then Shi Shi came over to Yan Qing, spreading out the answers he wanted to know crisply and flatly.
--On the front cover was clearly the title of the biography that Yan Qing had lapped up, and the first half of the text was also normal, but the second half of the book was unknowingly replaced with a vivid picture of the spring. The second half of the book was unknowingly replaced with a vivid picture of the spring palace.
Yan Qing was so wide-eyed and shocked that he could not speak for half a day, "You actually read this stuff in front of me, pretending to be serious for several nights?!"
He only saw it in the first time, under the watchful eye of Guo Jia, hastily turn the whole book once, and did not touch it again, do not want to the next day after this hidden mystery.
Having successfully molested Yan Qing, Guo Jia smirked as he put it back away and continued to flirt, "What do you mean 'this thing'? It's just an exposition of male . Pleasure. It's just a little bit of fun, just a little bit of fun to illustrate male. It's just a small bit of elegance that expounds on male love, it's just a pity that Chong Guang is too honorable and fails to get a glimpse of its mysteries."
When he thought of Lu Bu's strange gaze when he asked, Yan Qing could not help but realize that Lu Bu must have seen the roughly concealed essence of the last night when he was casually flipping through the pages, and almost thought of him as a wanderer who had to look at the little pornographic drawings before going to bed.
At the thought that his character in front of his lord was almost corrupted, Yan Qing's brows jumped and he crossed his eyes, "Feng Xiao has harmed me this time!"
Guo Jia sighed, shook his head and said: "Jia is really a lot of love and good intentions, Chongguang did not appreciate it is just a matter of time, how to reprimand Jia? Such a lack of love, no wonder Chong Guang empty beauty maids accompany, also do not know pity, are used as porcelain sculpture furnishings, but entrust Jia to find what brothels, a waste of money, the second to seek far away from the vicinity, the third is also too much of a waste of natural resources."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was blasted out by Yan Qing in annoyance.
Near noon, cloaked in a cold air Lu Bu only returned to the hall with a grave expression, opened the door and said, "Sun Bo Fu has surrendered, Bu has it first lead the old part of the Wendai."
Yan Qing frowned and said, "Then what is the Lord's concern? Is there a change in the battle situation at the front?"
Lu Bu shook his head and said, "Fang got an urgent report from a fast horse, the Yellow Turban thieves in Yangzhou have been all swept away, tied up all the captives, and are already on their way back to the city."
Yan Qing waited patiently for the following.
Lu Bu thought to himself for a while, before continuing, "However, or because of the Yellow Turban people casting spells, Zi Long's army was attacked by the plague."
Upon hearing this shocking news, Yan Qing only felt a roar in her head, and her entire body seemed to have fallen into an ice hole.
He was preoccupied with the drought and locust plague that would come a few years later, but he had forgotten that the plague was more harmful than the first two!
This for modern people, has been extremely distant words, in this the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty is in addition to years of raging war, the most called the wind, so that "white bones exposed in the wild, thousands of miles of no chicken song" of the evil spirit of life, but also to make the population of the Eastern Han Dynasty from the peak of the more than 50 million sharply reduced to more than 10 million of one of the main culprits.
Especially in the densely populated central plains, once the prevention and treatment is not timely enough, the consequences of the spread is undoubtedly catastrophic, it can be said that a control is not handled properly, not to mention as the source of the plague, the brunt of the Lu Bu military power in the people, and even the entire large Yangzhou people are difficult to be spared.
Even the clan from which Zhang Zhongjing, who was honored as the Sage of Medicine and who was supposed to write the "Treatise on Typhoid and Miscellaneous Diseases" a few years later to save the lives of countless millions of people in the world, was born, only one or two out of ten survived as a result of these virulent infectious diseases.
The so-called spell casting was mostly the result of abandoning animals that had died of plague on the water source or tricking the soldiers into eating by mistake.
Yan Qing forced himself to calm down, and quickly took action: first of all, immediately sent ten fast horses to Xu Cheng, will Zhang Zhongjing invitation to come; and then sent to Zhao Yun's army to send a letter to the army, that they do not enter Shouchun City, choose an open plain camp, set up some separate tents for the sick to move the workshop, and will be the patient and contact with the patient's soldiers are isolated from each other, the dead must be buried quickly, and can not be approached; followed by the fire to convene all the city's medical doctors! In addition to the medicinal herbs and diagnostic tools, bring along the smoked things such as wormwood, by the more familiar with the epidemic prevention methods, and have the peach in the hands of the emboldened Yan Qing personally led to.
Yan Qing this series of response as fast as lightning, called Lu Bu see dazzled at the same time, actually is half a sentence can not insert up. Until he finally realized that he was going to run to the epidemic field himself as a matter of course, Lu Bu grimaced and grabbed him by the back of the collar, unceremoniously picking him up and growling, "The epidemic is dangerous and abnormal, how can Chong Guang go there himself?!"
