The Grandmaster Strategist Chapter 32: Rotten mice become a taste


Today, I saw the simplified version of “A Generation of Military Teachers” published by People’s Publishing House. I feel that the quality is very good. Although the book is relatively thin, the weight is very substantial. Now think about it, although there were more requirements for editing at the beginning, there are still some I think Modifications that are ridiculous, such as the Southern Chu History into Southern Chu History and the Shu Kingdom into Tianshu, but the feeling is still very good. The layout and proofreading are very careful. If you want to collect, this edition should be Good choice.

You can buy the book on the online bookstore.99read.! Some readers said that there is no more. I see that it is also sold on Taobao.

————————————

On August Dinghai in the 14th year of Tongtai, the governor of Long was married and named Cai as the queen, and the second daughter of Situ Cai Kai, the noble concubine Ji, was established on the same day.

On August 18th, the ruler of the country pro-governs, the Royal Golden Palace received congratulations, added grace to the inside and outside, the sin is not desperate, and it is forgiven.

——”The History of Chu Min in the Southern Dynasties”.

In July of the fourteenth year of Tongtai, the south of the Yangtze River was raging, the heat waves were rolling, and the river was flowing eastward. It was noon. Even on the river, there were few boats on the river, but under a big willow tree by the river, there was a girl in green. Although she is not yet the age of cardamom, she is beautiful and exquisite, and she looks like a pearl of fairy dew. Her clothes are just the summer clothes that ordinary girls in Jiangnan like to wear, simple and unpretentious, but she has bright eyes and a beautiful face. Knows extraordinary Xiaojiabiyu. She hugged her knees and sat on the bluestone, with clear eyes looking at the teenager pacing by the river, ignoring the scorching sun above her head, her eyes filled with doubts. That young man, Yingwu, handsome, thirteen or fourteen years old, although his appearance was immature, but he was already brave and brave, but at the moment he was pacing by the river, looking anxious and urgent. The girl in green finally couldn’t bear it, and said loudly: “Second brother, didn’t you hire a boat, why haven’t you come now?”

The young man said with a bitter face: “Obviously, I have said that I will meet here today, and the shipping fee has been paid in advance by half, so there is no credit.”

The girl complained: “It’s all you. You must take me to Shouchun to visit my sister-in-law. I still don’t tell my mother to know. If not, we can go on the road with the uncle, and we won’t be here. The sun.”

A hint of helplessness flashed in the young man’s eyes, but he immediately concealed him, saying: “But what you said, my mother won’t let you go to Shouchun. I was going to Zhongli to meet my eldest brother, so that I could follow him to fight and kill the enemy. If you didn’t force me to follow me, I would be able to sway on the road without having to hire a boat here in private.”

The girl’s pretty face was flushed with anger. She was originally a gentle and elegant lady. Although she had imagined the vast sky outside, she had no courage to leave home. If it weren’t for this second brother who was ridiculing and secretly instigating herself How can I have the courage to go out with him, even to hide his mother. Thinking of this, I wanted to swear, but she was gentle by nature, and was not used to swearing at all, and was so angry that she couldn’t speak for a while.

At this moment, the young man suddenly pointed to the river surface and said: “Great, the ship is coming.” The girl was also overjoyed when she heard that. She stood up and looked at the river surface, only to see a small passenger ship approaching. Stopped on the shore, the boy said to the middle-aged boatman standing on the bow: “Uncle Gu, why did you come?”

The middle-aged boatman said: “Master Lu, today Xiaosan suddenly had a stomachache and was unable to board the boat. The villain alone could not drive the boat. He had to find a nephew as a helper temporarily. This was a missed time, and the son Forgive me.”

The young man’s expression eased, and he said: “So that’s it, brother third is okay?”

The middle-aged boatman smiled and said: “It’s nothing, I must have eaten something unclean. Please get on the boat, please.”

The young man glanced at the stern of the boat. The young man with the rudder had a bronze complexion and was strong and straightforward. Then he turned around and said, “Meier, get on the boat.”

The girl in green replied: “I know.” After saying that, she walked over. Although she was young, she was very beautiful. Although the middle-aged boatman was very knowledgeable, she couldn’t help but give a secret compliment. Get on the springboard and let the two brothers and sisters get on the boat. Two young girls, no one noticed, the young man with the rudder lowered his head slightly to cover the violent brilliance in his eyes.

When I got on the boat, a small boat drove up against the current, the sun was like a fire, and the river breeze was also scorching hot. The two boatmen drove the boat for more than ten miles before turning into a small river. The river is wide, with wind coming from all sides, green willows on both sides, branches and leaves obscuring the sky, reflecting on the surface of the river, shrouded in a cool, it is the best place for boats to rest in summer. Now there are more than ten passenger ships in Hanoi. Or a cargo ship. Among them is a gorgeous painted boat with black wood and gold. The beautiful and narrow hull resembles the slender body of a Jiangnan girl. There are several palace lanterns hanging on the bow. Although it is not lit now, there are four dragons and phoenix dancing on the lantern. The big characters are still clearly visible. The girl saw it at a glance, and whispered: “Like a dream painting boat.” Her face was envious, and she said: “Second brother, what a beautiful painting boat. If you can go up and take a look.”

The young man next to him heard it with a wry smile. Unlike his younger sister, he couldn’t get out of the door, and the second door didn’t move. He walked around Jianye City on weekdays. He naturally knew about the dream painting boat. After a moment of embarrassment, he said, “Mei Er, that’s not the place you should go.” The girl showed a strange look in her eyes, looked at her second brother, and said, “Didn’t the second brother lie to me?” The expression on her face was full of suspicion. The teenager wanted to argue that he never lied, but found that he couldn’t say it. After all, nine of the ten sentences he said to his sister were false, so he had to say: “Meier, that’s the number one oiran in Jiangnan.” Liu Rumeng’s paintings.”

Although the girl was young, she had also heard of Liu Rumeng’s reputation. Although she didn’t understand Fengyue, she also knew the meaning of it. She couldn’t help her face being red, and she was about to escape into the cabin. At this time, from the painting boat, there was a clear and poignant flute sound, and the touching melody flowed into people’s hearts like cold water. The hot summer seemed to lose its power, and then from the painting boat, there was a uniform sound of nature. singing.

“Shoude Liankai traveled with companions, about to drive a boat on Pingye. When I came, the clouds followed at Pukou, and the buildings on the riverside were plucked. The flowers are silent, and the water flows through the sky. In case of a west wind in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yan would not be able to bear autumn. (Note 1)”

The girl listened attentively, and said to the boy: “What a beautiful singing, so moving Xiaoyin, second brother, today is a rare opportunity, let me see Miss Liu, okay?” After that, there was a period of time in her eyes. The color of hope.

The young man’s eyes showed hesitation, but when he saw the girl’s expression, his heart softened, and finally sighed: “Well, Miss Liu is famous for Jiangnan. If you see her, Daddy will not blame it too much if you know.” After all, let the middle-aged boatman sail to the painting boat.

Not long after, Xiao Zhou approached the painting boat. A beautiful boat lady on the painting boat saw Xiao Zhou and said crisply, “This little boy, what do you do?”

The boy sighed and looked at the pleading look in his sister’s eyes, and said, “Please tell Ms. Liu, Lu Feng and Lu Mei are passing by here. Hearing the girl’s fairy voice, I want to see you on the boat.” He pressed to the purse, and he didn’t know if the silver was enough.

The ship’s lady chuckled and said, “Little son, at your age, don’t you be joking? Besides, my girl is just resting here and has no intention of meeting guests.”

The boy blushed, glanced at his younger sister, and said, “I dare not lie to each other. It is the sister-in-law who listened to Xiaoge and was so ecstatic that she wanted to see Miss Liu.”

The ship’s lady smiled slightly and looked at Lu Mei with a glint in her eyes. She walked to the hatch and said a few words in a low voice, before turning back: “My girl said, since she is a friend, please Get on the boat and have a rest.”

The young Lu Feng’s heart widened, and he whispered a few words to the boatman, took Lu Mei to the painting boat, walked out of the cabin, a beautiful maid, raised the bead curtain, the two walked in, and only felt inside the cabin A burst of cool air hit his face.

Lu Feng looked intently, and saw that the cabin was very spacious, with elegant and luxurious furnishings, with a rattan bed on the inside, and a small square table on it. On the table was a silver plate with iced watermelon. There was an ice basin in the cabin, no wonder it was infinitely cool. A girl was leaning against the table, she was dressed in plain clothes, with no splendor, and the silk was like ink, hanging in front of her. Although she swept her brows, she was not charming and bright. In the cabin, there was also a man in Tsing Yi standing in front of the window, staring at the bank of the Yanliu River outside the bead curtain, with a green shirt and bamboo flute hanging from his waist, with an indifferent and high-quality appearance.

Lu Mei was indifferent to look at the furnishings in the cabin, and walked a few steps before the rattan bed, and said joyfully: “Are you sister Liu? You sing so well!”

Liu Rumeng had no intention of seeing guests, but Song Yu, the talented piano player, motioned to her to see them, so he invited Lu’s brothers and sisters to board the boat, but she couldn’t help but see Lu Mei’s unintended joy and praise. A move in her heart, she smiled and said: “Rumeng is relying on these to make a living. Miss, this is absurd.” After that, she stretched out her slender hand, pulled Lu Mei to sit next to her, and looked at the girl up and down. Clearly, I only think that this girl is pure and beautiful. Although she is young, she is a natural little beauty. If she grows to thirteen or four years old, she will definitely be stunning. What makes Liu Rumeng even more fascinating is that this girl is pure and innocent. This kind of delicate and elegant temperament revealed from the bones, and when I saw it, I knew that it was not the daughter of ordinary people.

The more I look at it, the more I love it. Liu Rumeng smiled and asked, “Is your name Lu Mei? It is as the name suggests, I see You Lian, where are you going?”

Lu Mei glanced at Lu Feng, saw him shook his head slightly, and said: “My second brother and I went to see my eldest brother and sister-in-law. We passed by here and heard the singing of my sister, so I beg my second brother to take me to see my sister.”

Liu Rumeng naturally did not miss the delicate look between the two, but with her scheming, she naturally knew that it would be better to pretend not to know, and said: “Do you like singing music too?”

Lu Mei nodded and said shyly: “I can’t sing well…”

Lu Feng was impatient, his gaze fell on the man in Tsing Yi, and he stepped forward and said: “This must be Mr. Song Yusong. He has heard the name of Mr. Song for a long time. I met today. Fortunately, I met him today.”

After hearing the words, Yulun turned his head and said lightly: “Second Young Master Lu is a general tiger, how can you pay attention to me as a small person?”

Lu Feng’s heart was shocked. Although he was young, he was very smart. He knew the characters of Jianye. Naturally, he knew the talent of Song Yu, and he also knew that he was Shang Chengye’s confidant. In the past few years, Shang Chengye received his help and made great gains in the court. He is no longer a honourable son of the past. Before Lu Mei wanted to get on the boat to see Liu Rumeng, Lu Feng thought that the person who played the flute would be Song Yu. This person was a bohemian, besides occasionally offering advice to Shang Chengye, he had been with Liu Rumeng almost all year round.

The change in his expression is also in his eyes. In his heart, it is rumored that most of the dark forces of the Lu family in Jianye are in the hands of this young man. Now it seems to be true. You must know Song Yunai It was Shang Chengye’s advisor, which was very secret. No one knew except a few people, and the fact that Lu Feng could know it showed that he was able to penetrate into Lu’s hidden power in Jianye.

After getting this answer, Yulun didn’t ask more, turned his head and looked out the window, with an indifferent expression, as if he had no interest in the people behind him. Lu Feng was thinking hard in his heart. Today, Dao Zuo met, could it be that he was caught in the trap and couldn’t help but feel regret.

Almost an hour later, the sunlight slanted to the west, and the heat wave on the river subsided, and the land breeze took Lu Mei farewell. Lu Mei looked reluctant to leave when she was leaving. At this hour, Liu Rumeng taught her a lot of knowledge about rhythm, singing and dancing, which made her feel grateful, and Liu Rumeng was so good at speech that she could not bear to separate. But Lu Feng had long wanted to leave. He was living like a year at this hour. He was interested in listening to Song Yu’s depth. Unexpectedly, this person was cold and unwilling to talk to him, which made him very cold and embarrassed. Naturally, he hurriedly left at this moment.

Looking at the two approaching figures, a trace of sadness flashed in Yu Lun’s eyes, Liu Rumeng approached, exhaled like orchids, and said: “Do you recognize these two people?”

Yu Lun said indifferently: “A lot of times, don’t you know their identities?”

Liu Rumeng raised her eyebrows lightly, and said: “I’m too lazy to ask, besides, this little girl is gentle and lovely, I don’t want to use any scheming, anyway, it’s just a peaceful meeting.”

Yu Lun said indifferently: “That is Lu Can’s second son, Lu Feng, and his beloved daughter, Lu Mei.”

Liu Rumeng was slightly startled, and said: “It is actually a child of the general, it is rare. That Lu Mei’s identity, even the princess, may not be more noble than her, but she does not have a trace of arrogance. She is indeed a famous daughter. , How can a lady like this be left alone with her brother?”

Yulun said indifferently: “What about a famous daughter, she can’t escape the fight for power. Recently, the lord of the country will have a big wedding, and after the big wedding, he will have to be in charge. This big marriage is extremely important, and who is the queen is even more important. The weight.”

Liu Rumeng suddenly realized: “So, as a general, is this Miss Lu going to be a queen? But she seems to be less than thirteen years old, is she younger?”

Yu Lun said coldly: “What does the age matter? If it weren’t that Miss Lu was under thirteen years old and was not yet ready for election, I’m afraid she’s already included in the post-election roster. Arguing endlessly, although Shang Weijun intended to make the clan daughter the queen, he was remonstrated by Lu Can’s letter. After all, the Shang clan already had a queen dowager. It would be too much if there is another queen.”

Liu Rumeng thoughtfully said: “If the general intends to make Miss Lu a queen, why is Miss Lu wandering outside now?”

Yu Lun said indifferently: “The general did not mean that. The queen mother signaled to Mrs. Lu a few days ago that she intends to choose Miss Lu as the queen. Now it seems that Lu is unwilling, but probably does not want to openly oppose it. So let Miss Lu leave Jianye.”

Liu Rumeng’s beautiful eyes flowed, saying: “The Queen Mother had such a meaning, but she was secretly rejected by the Lu family. Didn’t the general offend the Queen Mother?”

Yulun sneered and said: “There is no way. You know that Shang Xiang’s heart is absolutely unwilling to see Lu Mei as a queen. Once Lu becomes a relative, I am afraid that Shang Xiang will wake up in a dream. So he stopped using Lu Mei’s young age and advocated setting up Cai’s daughter as the queen, but if Lu did not marry the royal family, Shang Xiang would be uneasy, so he actually proposed the absurd idea of ​​registering Lu Mei as a noble concubine, but the queen mother was not determined. At the same time, he hoped to marry the Lu clan, but at the same time succumbed to Shang Xiang’s will, and wanted to wrong Lu Mei as a noble concubine. It is no wonder that Lu clan indulged Lu Mei and fled Jianye. How lofty Lu Can’s status in Nanchu is now, if his daughter were In the palace, if you don’t become a queen, you will lose face.”

Liu Rumeng thought repeatedly and sighed: “In this way, no matter what, the monk of the Lu family will forge hatred. It is rumored that the former Shangxiang had deliberately matched the righteous girl with Lu Yun, but was rejected by the general. Later, she deliberately ordered Princess Lu Yun to Shang Shuning, but was rejected by the general on the grounds that Major General Lu had been engaged. Now Miss Lu has escaped the election. I am afraid that the queen mother and the lord will think that the general despise the court, this matter is after all The troubles are endless.”

After hearing this, the sadness in his eyes became stronger and stronger, and he said: “Nowadays, rotten rats are like a taste. Suspicious Kunpeng talks endlessly. Is the general greedy for power, let alone the heart of climbing the dragon and the phoenix, just like this People don’t believe in the general’s will.”

Liu Rumeng also sighed softly, before saying for a long time: “You might as well try to ask Master Shang to explain to Shang Xiang, now that the general is out, facing the Da Yong million cavalry, if something happens to the middle of the court, I’m afraid The building will fall.”

After a long sigh, there was no word, and he remembered the instructions received yesterday. The familiar handwriting on it shocked my heart.

“Zhao Long is about to take office, and his wedding is imminent. Lu clan will show off in the south of the Yangtze River. The Shang clan must want Lu Can’s daughter as a concubine, and she will not sell her daughters for glory. Clan, if Chan is the head of the country, he must have the intention of conspiracy to cut off marriage.”

Yulun said many times in his heart~IndoMTL.com~ secretly smiled: “Sir, in your mind, if you become your enemy, would you not have any mercy? Then Lu Can was originally your disciple, now You will put him to death, but why do you indulge me so much?”

Thinking about the three instructions I received in the past three years, Yulun felt only icy cold in his heart.

In the twelfth year of Tongtai, Xiangyang fell to Jianye. When the news spread to Jianye, Shang Weijun was terrified and wanted to imprison Rongyuan, the defender of Xiangyang. The man sent the first instruction, let him offer advice and spread rumors. It was said that Lu Can deliberately instigated the court to question the soldiers of Xiangyang, but let Shang Weijun come forward to subdue Rong Yuan. This move not only made Rong Yuan even more hateful towards Lu Can, but also gave Shang Weijun the support of the military and also I got the trust of Shang’s.

In the thirteenth year of Tongtai’s defeat of Ba Jun, Yumian stayed at the sword pavilion, and the defenders of Chengdu did not surrender in a fierce battle. The two armies cemented, and Dayong proposed a peace agreement. If Nan Chu abandons Jiange and Chengdu, Chu will be trapped. Lu Can returned the army to Nan Chu and was willing to return Ba Jun to Nan Chu. Lu Can decided not to allow him to send the navy army to Shu for rescue. He received a second order and persuaded the Shang clan through Shang Chengye. Once the navy entered Shu, the Yangtze River The line of defense is bound to be empty. If the battle lasts for a long time, once the Dinghai Yongjun takes the opportunity to attack, I am afraid that Jianye will be endangered. Instead of dividing the troops and fighting hard, it is better to guard Bajun to avoid the Yongjun going down the river. After the peace talks were successful, he took the opportunity to persuade Shang Weijun to guilty Yumian according to the instructions. Lu Can was furious, and the monk Shang Weijun fought face-to-face, and finally made Yumian continue to guard the Ba county, but it increased Shang Weijun’s against the Lu family. Doubts.

Now with the addition of this third instruction, Yulun knows that Shang Weijun’s suspicion of Lu is about to reach its culmination. With Zhao Long’s administration, Jiang Zhe, who has been standing still for three years, is afraid that he will soon launch a counterattack. Up.
