Chapter 775 The Zhuge Family
Seeing that everyone had no objection, Ailang said, "This matter is settled." He turned his head and said to Da Qiao who was kneeling beside him, "Cao Ling. The commander Jia Xu and the others to prepare immediately. At 79, he would first lead 10,000 elite troops across the sea to help Liaodong. Then he ordered Gan Ning to mobilize the northern naval forces to gather in Qingzhou to assist Zang Ba's troops across the sea. In addition, he ordered Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Huainan to assemble large ships for me to sail to Qingzhou as much as possible." Da Qiao listened to Ailang's words while using his pen as quickly as possible. When Ailang finished speaking, she had already written three orders, then put down her brush, stood up, and presented the three orders to Ailang for a look.
Ailang looked at the three orders and confirmed that it was correct. He picked up a brush and signed his name under the three orders. Then he picked up his seal and stamped it with a seal. He put down the seal, picked up the three orders and handed it to Huang Wudie, and said, "Send the fast horse to pass it down immediately." Huang Wudie stepped forward and took the three orders and walked quickly.
Ailang glanced at everyone and said, "The following orders will be taken back to their respective garrisons after the annual meeting. Guanzhong, Hanzhong, Jingzhou, Nanzhong, Jiangnan, Qingzhou, must strengthen defense after the Spring Festival, reorganize the army and prepare for war. All troops must not go out rashly and defend their respective territories! The focus of the battle after the beginning of spring is to protect Liaodong, and other places will take a defensive stance!" Everyone clasped their fists and said, "I will obey the order." Ailang paused and said to the Zhuge sisters: "The assembly and transportation of logistics and supplies will be handed over to you." The two women clasped their fists and agreed. Then Ailang said, "I have decided that I will personally lead the army to reinforce Liaodong. Luoyang, Xuchang, and Huainan. Assemble 30,000 strategic reserve teams for me. In addition, the Iron Cavalry of the Tiger and the Black Clothing Camp gathered at the same time and acted with me. Yan Liang, Dian Wei, Ju Yi, Wu Die, you four follow me." The four generals clasped their fists and agreed.
After the meeting, Zhuge brothers and sisters returned to Zhuge's mansion in the city. Zhuge Liang looked at the magnificent mansion given to his two sisters by the lord in front of him, and couldn't help but say, "The two sisters actually received such a generous gift from the lord, which shows that the lord is very fond of the two sisters!" Zhuge sisters were very happy. Zhuge Ruoxue said, "This is nothing, in fact, every lady has it."
The four brothers and sisters walked into the hall and sat down in Zhang You's order. The maid brought the fragrant tea and stepped down. Zhuge Jin picked up the tea cup, drank the tea cup, put down the tea cup, and sighed: "Our Zhuge family is so kind to me, and now he is extremely rich!" He looked up at the two sisters and said with some hope: "If Mengxue and Ruoxue can give birth to a boy for the lord, our Zhuge family will be extremely precious!" The Zhuge sisters couldn't help but blushed, and a strange look appeared in their beautiful eyes.
Zhuge Jin frowned and said seriously, "But I want to remind you! The more we are, the more cautious we should be in life, and we must not act arrogantly! As the saying goes, high places are too cold! Although the revival of the family is our goal, the closer we get to this goal, the more we should be cautious! Throughout history, many prominent families of foreign relatives have been destroyed in an instant!"
The three younger brothers and sisters nodded deeply. Zhuge Ruoxue said angrily: "Brother, why worry about this matter? How can we not know the power of this?" Zhuge Jin smiled and said, "It's good to know!" Turning his head to look at Zhuge Liang, frowned and asked, "Kong Ming, did you go to the palace secretly last night? Go to see Mrs. Yueying?" This was the first time that the Zhuge sisters and sisters were shocked when they heard this. They looked at Zhuge Liang, and an angry expression appeared in Zhuge Ruoxue's eyes.
Zhuge Liang hurriedly said, "Don't misunderstand it, it's not what you imagined." Then he smiled bitterly and said, "I have already let go of Yueying!...... Even if I can't let it go, Yueying will not pretend to be rude to me!" Zhuge Jin asked suspiciously: "Really?"
Zhuge Liang said, "The one who asked me to go last night was actually the lord." Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang showed a hint of shy expression and continued, "The lord brought Mrs. Yueying's cousin to see me, and said yes, and said that she would be betrothed to me. I, I have agreed." Zhuge Jin and Zhuge sisters were overjoyed, and Zhuge Ruoxue smiled, "That's really congratulations!" Zhuge Jin nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, okay! This is really a happy event!" Then he said seriously, "My lord can say that his kindness is higher than that of the sky, you must know it in your heart!" Zhuge Liang quickly clasped his fists and said, "Brother, don't remind me, I naturally understand the kindness of my lord!" Then he sighed and said, "It's ridiculous that I am arrogant and talented, but I was stubborn before!"
As usual, the annual meeting was held for three consecutive days, discussing military and political affairs, and making arrangements for the work on the military formation in the coming year. After the annual meeting, the civil and military members left Luoyang and returned to their respective garrisons.
Ailang came outside the guest room and saw Dong Yuan standing under the plum blossom tree in front of the guest room wearing a moon-white long skirt wrapped in a lilac cotton jacket. Ailang couldn't help but feel happy when she saw that she had gotten out of bed. He walked up and asked, "Are you in good health?"
Dong Yuan seemed to be shocked and turned around in a hurry. Seeing Ailang, she bowed and said, "Lord!" Ailang hurriedly stepped forward to support Dong Yuan, and said with concern: "You are injured, why are you doing good deeds!" Dong Yuan raised her head and looked at Ailang. Seeing her eyes, Ailang felt a sudden heart. She came back to her senses, quickly pulled back her hands, and smiled and said, "I'm here to see you."
I feel relieved when I see you are fine." Dong Yuan lowered her head and said, "Thank you for your public care."
Ailang smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's too flirting with thanks..." Then he couldn't help but think that her, Dong Zhuo, died at his hands, and for a moment, felt that he didn't know what to say. He just felt that he was really sorry for her. Dong Zhuo was killed by him, but she didn't expect that in the end she actually sacrificed her life to save herself! "Well, you still need time to recover from the injury. Don't rush to return to the army, just cultivate here." "Yes."
Ailang suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Dong Yuan suddenly asked, "I heard that the lord is planning to lead the army to rescue Liaodong in person?" Ailang nodded and said, "It was decided at the annual meeting. I will set off in two days." Dong Yuan said quickly, "I want to go too." Ailang was stunned and then smiled and said, "You are still injured. Besides, your army is in Luoyang, how can you..." Dong Yuan said, "It is common to leave your army and do business. I want to follow my lord!" Ailang felt his heart blew and couldn't help but say, "Okay!" Dong Yuan was overjoyed and said, "Thank you lord!"
Ailang smiled and said, "You rest, I'll come to see you later." Dong Yuan said, "Greatly send you off!" Ailang turned and left. Dong Yuan raised her head and looked at Ailang's back. A cold light flashed in her eyes.
Ailang returned to the study and saw Dong Yuan's hunting equipment sent by his personal soldiers. A few days ago, Dong Yuan was injured, and the equipment she brought was removed by the female soldier and put it in Ailang's study. Ailang picked up the hunting bow, weighed it, and tried to pull it. Its strength was really great. Ailang sighed, put the hunting bow back, and shouted, "Come on!" Ailang immediately came in from the door and bowed, "What are the instructions for the lord?" Ailang picked up Dong Yuan's pile of equipment and handed it to her hands, and said, "Take back these to Dong Yuan." The female soldier shouted and held the pile of things down.
Two days later, Dong Yuan saw that no one had come to inform her of her departure, and was worried that she would be left by Ai Lang, so she left the guest room and went to the backyard to visit Ai Lang in person to ask about this. When she came to the door of Ai Lang's yard, she saw a female soldier guarding her, and couldn't help asking, "Is the lord here?" The female soldier blushed and said, "I'm talking to all the ladies!" However, before she finished speaking, Da Qiao was still a crying moan from the yard.
The female soldier's face turned redder and looked uneasy. Dong Yuan was stunned for a moment, and a look of annoyance surged in her eyes, muttering to herself: "This hateful man is so intriguing!" Then she turned around as if she ran away.
Another day later, Ailang led his personal soldiers of the royal palace, the Iron Cavalry of the Tiger, the Black Clothes Camp and the 10,000 strategic reserve troops gathered in Luoyang and headed for Qingzhou.
How long has the army left Luoyang? There was a hurried sound of horse hooves coming from behind. Ai Lang couldn't help but turn his head and see that Dong Yuan was catching up. At this time, Ai Lang suddenly remembered the previous promise to take Dong Yuan to Liaodong. Dong Yuan rode his horse to catch up with Ai Lang and said angrily: "Lord will not keep his promise!" Ai Lang smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm forgot about this matter!" Dong Yuan was depressed when she heard this. Ai Lang looked at Dong Yuan's chest and asked, "Do you have no worries?" Dong Yuan said angrily: "What's this injury?" Ai Lang said, "How about I ask someone to find you a carriage." Dong Yuan snorted, and swung the horse to the front. Seeing this, Ai Lang couldn't help but smile.
The army traveled day and night on the road and rushed to Qingzhou. At the same time, the 10,000 army led by Zang Ba was crossing the sea on a ship provided by the Ganning Navy to Liaodong. Qingzhou has never received any news from Liaodong since the last time he received news from Liaodong, and he didn't know what the situation in Liaodong is now.
Jizhou, Prime Minister's Mansion. Just as Cao Pi was talking to Sima Yi and Xun You, an officer suddenly led a dusty officer in, clasped his fists and said, "Prime Minister, Mr. Wenruo has sent someone!" Then he let him go aside. The dusty officer who followed him in immediately stepped forward and bowed; "Report to the Prime Minister, the villain is ordered to report to the Prime Minister. According to the detailed information, not long ago, Gao Chi had surrendered to Lu Bu and sent someone to ask for help from Lu Bu!" Cao Pi was shocked when he heard this.
