The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

() Yao Sheng was in Xiangguo County and wanted to wait until tomorrow, but tonight he had to spend the night at Su Renting.レm♠思♥Road♣客レ

Entering the pavilion of Su Ren Pavilion, the night shrouded the earth.

A gust of cool wind blew, and the trees along the road rustled. Xun Zhen looked up at the night sky, and looked left and right at the fields, near water, and distant mountains under the night. It was blurry, only a silhouette could be seen, and the four fields were silent. The fallen leaves drifted in the wind, some fell on the ground, and some fell on the clothes and horses of the people who were walking at night. Walking on the empty road, Xun Zhen unconsciously recalled his boyhood. When he first came to this age, he was unfamiliar and uneasy. At this time, Tang Er would appear by his side, soft-spoken. Although it was difficult to tell her what was on his mind, it also gave him a lot of comfort.

He turned his head to laugh and said to Xun You: "Gongda, it is quiet in the middle of the night, and the sound of the autumn wind blowing leaves can be heard. I remember when I was a child, you always liked to listen to the sound of wind leaves in the middle of the night, and asked my brother Zhong if this was the sound of 'Tian Lai'. '..., do you still like listening to it now?"

Xun You laughed and said: "Noisy in the daytime, only night can be quiet. In the quiet night, listening to the wind blowing leaves is like a clear whistle, and there is nothing more soothing!" He sighed and said, "It's just like this. This year is long, and I rarely have the leisure time of my youth!"

Xun Zhen thought, "This is the trouble of growing up."

In his previous life, when he was Xun You's age, he also expressed similar emotions, recalling the beautiful childhood, but he had to take responsibility and face his adult life. Xun Yougu is an outstanding man, intelligent and witty, but he is also a human being, and he also has all kinds of human emotions, especially when he is young and deceased, he is sometimes stronger than ordinary people in terms of delicacy and sensitivity, but he is able to restrain himself and does not often reveal it.

Handan Rong, Xuan Kang and others listened to them talking about interesting stories about their youth.

Handan Rong just listened with a smile, Xuankang couldn't help but think about it: "It would be great if I could meet Xun Jun when I was young!"

As he rode his horse on the night, Su Renting was getting closer and closer. Zuo Bohou and Yuan Zhongqing, who were walking in the forefront, each pressed their swords, paying attention to the movements on the road and Tianbei. Another gust of cool wind blew, Xuankang made a "Yeah" sound, rubbed his forehead with his hand, and said, "Is it raining?" Just then a drop of water fell on his forehead. Before he finished speaking, drops of autumn rain fell from the night sky in the rustling autumn wind.

There are four large rivers in the territory of Zhao State. The temperature in the mountains in the west is low, and there are many springs and streams. In the east there is the Dalu Lake in Julu County, and the Jize in Wei County in the south. Rain, at least two or three times, as many as half a month of continuous rain.

Xun Zhen prefers rainy days.

He raised his face and stretched out his hand, feeling the falling raindrops. The autumn wind was cool, the autumn rain was cool, and the raindrops fell on his face and hands one after another, and he felt cool and soaked. The rain came fast, and it quickly changed from bit by bit to continuous falling. It hit the roads, fields, and trees. There was a sound, and the sound of horses' hooves was mixed into it, and the more crisp it was. Mountains, water, fields, and towering trees, the rain curtain this night gives people a sense of remoteness. He smiled and said, "What a torrential rain! You gentlemen, Su Renting is not far away. I will ride faster so that I can avoid the rain."

Uncle Zuo in front of him suddenly drew his sword and called out, "Who is it?"

Dian Wei, who was behind the guard, heard the sound, and immediately drove his horse forward, took out his iron halberd, and stood by Xun Zhen's side. Yuan Zhongqing's reaction was a little slow, but he also turned his horse back in time to **** Xun Zhen's side and draw a knife to guard against it. Handan Rong, Xun You, and Xuan Kang also restrained their horses one after another, drew out their swords, and protected Xun Zhen in the middle. Xun Zhen took it easy, stopped the horse slowly, and watched with the knife.

In the night rain, five or six young men in shorts and scarves stood up from the fields on both sides of the road, all with weapons in their hands, two with bows and crossbows, and aimed at Xun Zhen and the others from a distance. The rest are all swords. A man with a sword came to the road from the field, stood more than ten steps in front of Xun Zhen and the others, looked at Xun Zhen and the others, and asked, "Who are you?"

Zuo Bohou and Yuan Zhongqing, the two guards of Xunzhen: Zuo Bohou was calm and did not talk much; Yuan Zhongqing talked a lot in a hurry.

Uncle Zuo ignored this man, just glanced at him, and then focused his attention on the two bowmen in the distance in the field, holding his sword and thinking, if there was a fight, how would he be able to do it in the shortest time possible? Kill these two most threatening enemies.

Yuan Zhongqing clenched the ring knife tightly, and asked back, "Who are you waiting for? Hiding on the side of the road at night, isn't it a thief?"

Handan Rong said in a low voice, "Mr. Xun, these people are all with local accents. Although there are not many of them, there are only four or five of them. However, looking at the weapons they bring, they are fully equipped with swords, swords, crossbows and bows, and they are not like ordinary thieves."

In the past two days, they have seen several groups of young and strong refugees with fierce eyes. These people have a local accent, and first of all they ruled out that they would not be refugees from other places. Although the management of weapons in this dynasty was very loose, officials and people were allowed to wear knives and swords, but weapons such as crossbows were not available or affordable for ordinary people. Although the number of people opposite was small, not only did they have two crossbows , and the division of labor is clear, there are swords at close range, bows and crossbows at long distances, and when the road is blocked, except for one person who comes forward to ask questions, the rest are scattered on the field, forming a faint siege of Xun Zhen and others. Such a dynamic behavior, such as engaging in the art of war, is indeed not like an ordinary thief.

The man on the opposite side smiled and said: "You thin man's accent is not from my country of Zhao, I think you are a thief! Where did you come from, where did you come from, and did you have any documents? If so, bring it to me. Take a look; if not, don't blame me for waiting!" As he spoke, the two men with bows and crossbows on the field set up their arrows, and the other two cats with swords held their swords at their waists, dashed out, and jumped. Jump yù try.

"Passing documents" is "biography", which is a "road certificate" issued by local county temples to officials and people who travel abroad.

Xun You said softly: "Ask me to pass the documents? Xun Jun, this group of people does not look like thieves, are they the pavilion's guards?"

Xun Zhen had served as the head of Fanyang Pavilion, and he knew the duties of the pavilion very well. Generally speaking, since these people asked them to pass the documents, they should be the pavilion guards of this pavilion, but now the chaos has just passed, the place is restless, thieves are swarming, many pavilions are useless, and there are very few still at night. Those who dare to send people out to patrol Jǐng Jie, they have come all the way, but this is the first time someone in the pavilion is blocking the way to "pass".

He thought to himself: "Is it a patriarch, or is it a thief in disguise?" He slowly smiled and said, "I have good ears, I am indeed a foreigner, but I moved to Handan a long time ago, but this time I went to Bairen County to visit friends." Ling Xuankang said, "I took the documents and showed them to this strong man." When Xuankang took the documents, he asked the person blocking the road, "Dare to ask your steps, is it the pavilion chief of Guiting?"

The man didn't answer, stared at Xuan Kang and took out the documents and asked him to send them over.

Xun Zhen coughed, Xuan Kang knew what Xun Zhen meant, got off the horse, held the sword in one hand and the document in the other, took a few steps forward, stopped when he was four or five steps away from this man, and threw the document away. In the past, he quickly stepped back behind Yuan Zhongqing and Dian Wei, and mounted the horse again.

The roadblockers and Xun Zhen did not know the details of each other, and they were like enemies.

The rain fell rustling, Xun Zhen and others' clothes had been ripped through, and the wind was blowing, and the whole body was cold. The man opposite stared at Xun Zhen and the others, and cautiously raised the knife and went forward to pick up the document he had written. Although it was raining at night, he could barely read the words when he got close.

Xun Zhen looked at his cautious appearance, and then turned to look forward to the more vigilant people on the field. He had been in the battlefield for a long time, but he did not take these people seriously, and at this moment, he still had time to sigh, thinking: " Pedestrians have bows and arrows on their waists, and when they meet on the road, it is like encountering an enemy. Alas, the weather is chaotic.”

The man on the other side read the book several times in succession. After repeated confirmation, he judged the book to be true, put away his saber, and said with a smile, "It turns out that my foot is from Xu County, Yingchuan, and my surname is Chen. What's your name?"

Duke Taiqiu was Chen Yu. Xun Zhen's document was issued by the Handan County magistrate before the trip. In order to avoid attracting the attention of officials along the road and lose the original intention of private travel, he falsely used the surname of his wife's family, Xu County, Chen.

Hearing this man ask about his relationship with Chen Yu, he was surprised and said, "A person from Yeting in Jizhou also knows the name of Duke Taiqiu of my state?" He replied, "Prince Taiqiu is the ancestor of the lower clan."

"Oh? It's actually the grandson of Duke Taiqiu? So, it's disrespectful." The man hurriedly ordered everyone in the field to put away their weapons, walked closer, and returned Xun Zhen's documents.

Seeing that they had put away their weapons and everyone in the field was on the road, Xun Zhen and the others were relieved, knowing that these people must be the pavilion soldiers of Ben Pavilion. Xun Zhen motioned to Dian Wei and Zuo Bohou to put away their weapons as well. Xuan Kang took back the documents. Xun Zhen dismounted and said with a smile, "Do you know the name of my clan's ancestor?"

"I didn't know it at first, but the pavilion of my pavilion admired Duke Taiqiu very much. He often told us about Duke Taiqiu's noble character and his love for the people and benevolent administration when he was in the office. Duke Qiu is also very respectful, I didn’t expect to meet Duke Taiqiu’s clan tonight, so I was rude just now, so please don’t blame me for daring to invite the distinguished guests.”

In his early years, Chen Yu served as the head of Wenxi, and he worked in Wenxi for half a year. Wen Xi was in Hedong County, not near or far from Zhao State. It is not surprising that his political achievements in Wenxi came to Zhao.

It's not strange, it's strange. After all, it was many years ago that Chen Hao was appointed to Wen Xichang. If the scholar-officials in Jizhou said that they knew about his deeds, it was reasonable, but the pavilion chief and patriarch of a wild pavilion in front of him knew about his deeds many years ago. Strange.

Xun You turned his head to look at Xun Zhen. Handan Rong said: "Dare to ask the name of the chief of Guiting Pavilion?"

The man smiled and said to Xun Zhen, "Speaking of which, I still have the same surname as Chief Ting Ting and Shi Xia, and his surname is Chen Jiwu."

Xuankang suddenly realized and said, "It turns out that they have the same surname, so it's no wonder that you know the name of Duke Taiqiu!"

The man shook his head and said, "I know not only the name of Duke Taiqiu, but also the names of Li, Xun, Zhong, Du, Guo and other surnames in Guizhou!"

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "In this way, the pavilion chief named Chen Wu is in the wild pavilion and has lofty aspirations."

Unless he has lofty aspirations, it is impossible for him to get to know celebrities from other states.

Xun Zhen thought again: "I remember the last time I was waiting for Lusu Suren Pavilion, the pavilion's pavilion's surname seemed to be Deng..."

He then smiled and said: "I don't care about the name of the nobles in Wuzhou, but I can also enter the ears of heroes in Guijun. ..., let's not hide the truth, we came from Handan and passed through the county all the way. , Guiting's public security must be the first in the county. To manage Guiting in such a strict and orderly manner, the pavilion chief of Guiting should have been in Guiting for a long time, right?"

"No, no, my pavilion was originally Deng Jun, and Ben Pavilion was attacked by a thief half a month ago. He was killed by a thief. The county knew that Chen Junshan was good at handling dramas, so he was transferred to Ben Pavilion because he was transferred. When he took office, he was originally the pavilion chief of the Guangting Pavilion in the west of the county."

To "govern the drama" is to deal with difficult and difficult affairs. But it turned out that the pavilion chief surnamed Deng was killed by a thief! Xiangguo County knew that Chen Wu had a talent for managing operas, so he was appointed the head of the pavilion. In this way, he has only been in office for more than ten days. After only ten days in office, he was able to organize patrols in the pavilion. Xun Zhen had been a pavilion chief, and he knew that this was not easy.

The autumn rain was getting bigger and bigger, and the man opposite said: "It's curfew now, and it's raining again. You are afraid that you won't be able to make your way tonight, so why don't you stay overnight in this pavilion? ?"

"Right on my mind."

This man instructed the remaining few people to return to the road, still ambush in the wild, guard the road, and take Xun Zhen and others to the pavilion. Xun Zhen and others had rain gear they had brought, but they met these people before they could take them out. Xuankang took them out at this time and distributed them to everyone. Seeing that the person leading the way had no rain gear, Xun Zhen invited him to come with him to take shelter from the rain. He smiled and said, "When you go to the countryside, it's nothing to get some rain."

Although this person is only a pavilion, he is very generous in his speech and demeanor. Xun Zhen couldn't help thinking of her former colleague at Fanyang Pavilion, and said to herself, "This person's behavior is much better than Du Mai and the Fan family brothers." Are you from Benting?"

The man smiled and said, "I am not from Benting, but from Huangyuling in this county."

"Why did Ben Ting come to be the **** of Ting?"

"Following Chen Jun."

"Oh? You and Chen Jun are old acquaintances?"

"Yeah, Chen Jun is also from Huangyuling. I have known each other since childhood. ... Not only I and Chen Jun are old acquaintances, but the few people just now are also old acquaintances with Chen Jun, and two are also from Huangyuling. , the other two are from Boguangting, and the other is from Yiyang County."

"People from Yiyang County?"

"Mr. Chen Jun is hospitable and hospitable, and there are many young people in the neighboring pavilions and counties who follow him. This time, Jun Chen has been appointed as the chief of Su Ren Pavilion. We know that there are many thieves in this pavilion and it is difficult to treat, so we will all help Chen Jun."

Hearing this, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Xun You glanced at Xun Zhen again.

I turned to Gu just now because I was surprised that this pavilion chief named Chen Wu knew the name of Xu County's Chen clan; now I turned back to it because this pavilion chief named Chen Wu was a good friend. Admiring celebrities and making friends with young people is somewhat similar to what Xun Zhen did when he was in Fanyang Pavilion.

Xun Zhen said in his heart, "The pavilion chief, Chen Wuzhi, seems to have ambitions."

After walking for two or three miles, under the rustling night rain, a pavilion is located on the side of the road. In front of the house stands a Chinese watch more than ten feet high, and the house is brightly lit. Before reaching the door of the house, a loud noise was heard.

The person who led the way looked back and smiled: "There are many thieves in this pavilion, and it is not enough for me to wait a few times at night to check the way, so Chen Jun arranged for several classes of young people to take turns in the house to watch the night, and once they meet the thieves, they will rush to attack the thieves. Autumn is cold at night, and sitting is boring. Sometimes Chen Jun will buy some meat and vegetables, sell some turbid wine, and drink with these young people at night. The rural pavilions are not as good as the post office in the county. You are fortunate!"

Xun Zhen nodded with a smile.

The man went up to the stage, knocked on the courtyard door, led Xun Zhen and others inside, strode into the hall in the front courtyard, and informed Chen Wu, the pavilion chief.
