Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 761 Tell the public
The seventh year of Yankang, August

No one realized that a huge change was about to unfold in an all-round way, and no one even smelled the calm before the storm. The sudden arrival of the Southern Army may have surprised some people, but, After the Southern Army quickly returned to Luoyang, they returned to their homes one after another and scattered in various places. Some of them were too far away and lived in Jiaozhou and Ningzhou. They didn't go back just now.

As for the captains of the Southern Army, the emperor just hosted a banquet, and then took a rest. He could often see the captains or soldiers of the Southern Army playing around inside and outside Luoyang. After the local rangers clashed a few times, everyone knew the news. The local rangers saw these outlanders playing around and talking arrogantly, and wanted to teach them a lesson.

However, the end was very bad, and several of them were almost beaten to death.

It is worthy of being the ranger of Luoyang, a big Han. It is different from others. The soldiers of the Southern Army dared to provoke them. Just amidst the ridicule of the crowd, the law and order in Luoyang was very good, and the rangers hid at home one after another, waiting for the soldiers of the Southern Army. The holiday is over. As for Liu Yi, he was worried that these soldiers would disturb the law and order in Luoyang, but he did not expect that their arrival would actually strengthen the law and order in Luoyang.

Liu Yi made meritorious deeds because of this, and even the emperor praised him, which made Liu Yi laugh out loud.

That's great, I finally got lucky, it's rare.

And at this moment, in the east of Luoyang City.

Old man Wang parked the vehicle here slowly, with a beaming face on his face, he was about to take down the tables and chairs from the carriage, when a tall young man rushed over from the side, old man Wang was shocked, and was about to pick up the table and chairs. The chair was self-defense, and I saw the young man quickly picked up the chair from the carriage, and quickly put the table on the ground, helping old man Wang to set it up.

Old man Wang stared wide-eyed, watching the man put the Hu table on the ground, then raised his head, and asked with a smile: "Here?" Only then did old man Wang notice that the person in front of him was not from the Central Plains, with blond hair and blue eyes Yes, it looks like a barbarian outside the Great Wall. Old man Wang is not young, and he is still a little wary of barbarians in his heart. Today's young people are used to barbarians, and they don't have any hostility at all.

But Old Man Wang is different. As an old man who has experienced the Qiang Rebellion and Xianbei Rebellion, he still instinctively dislikes these barbarians and is somewhat resistant. After all, their different looks make Old Man Wang feel that they cannot be easily trusted. If it weren't for his own Saburo's words, he wouldn't even do business with the Hu people and buy their pepper and the like.

"En", old man Wang just nodded without saying a word.

The young barbarian put the tables and chairs away, then raised his head, smiled and pointed not far away, and said in very non-standard elegant words: "There, I." Old man Wang turned around and saw that there was a place near him. Beside the porridge shop, there was a carriage similar to his, but this barbarian just modified the carriage without seats, and there was a large bucket and a few lamps on the carriage, which looked very delicate.

Old man Wang asked with some doubts: "Are you selling wine here?"

The barbarian shook his head, gestured for a while, and then rushed over. The old man Wang looked at him curiously. The barbarian quickly filled a bowl from the wooden barrel, and quickly ran to the old man Wang, gesticulating up and down, and the old man bowed his head He took a look and was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, only to see that the wine cup was full of red, like blood. It was rumored that the barbarians drank blood, so it turned out to be true!

Old man Wang looked at the barbarians in front of him in horror, and shouted loudly: "We don't drink your stuff here! You can't sell it next to me!"

The Hu man looked at him in amazement, gesticulating with his hands and feet, but he spoke a language that Old Man Wang had never heard of. The old man Wang looked at a loss, and the two talked differently, but the Hu man insisted on letting him drink a bowl. Old man Wang stomped his feet angrily.

"You foolish old man, this thing is fruit juice, An pomegranate, when Zhang Jun brought it back from the Western Regions, he squeezed this fruit into juice, and gave it to you, but you didn't drink it?", I don't know when, old Cao He had already appeared behind the two of them, talking calmly, both of them looked at him in surprise, old man Wang looked at him, and said with some displeasure: "Is there such a fruit? I'm alive!" I have never heard of it for so many years!"

"That's because you are a country fool, can you know this thing?"

Lao Cao mocked, then sat down, looked at the hesitant old Wangtou in front of him, and said with disdain: "This thing usually costs four hundred yuan a cup, and you don't want to drink it. If you don't drink it, then give it to me." Stop." When the old man learned the price, his eyes lit up, and he quickly took a cup from the barbarian's hand. He was about to drink it down, but stopped, looked at the barbarian in front of him, and asked: "What's the price? How much is the price?"

The barbarian shook his head and said something with a smile.

Cao Cao said: "He said to invite you, just let you drink."

"This item is expensive, how can I get it?"

"It's okay, just help him later."

After listening to Cao Cao's explanation, the old man thanked him and drank it in one gulp. After finishing drinking, old man Wang's eyes lit up.

This thing is very sweet and tastes very good!

Old man Wang couldn't help praising him, and smiled and returned the lamp to the barbarian in front of him. Cao Cao said displeasedly, "Make porridge quickly, I'm still hungry!" Old man Wang smiled and nodded, and got busy. The barbarian wanted to return to his seat, but Cao Cao suddenly stretched out his hand and said to him, "Bring me one."

The barbarian nodded, filled a bowl quickly, and ran over.

Cao Cao drank a bowl happily, looked at him, and asked, "Where are you from?"

"Rest in peace..." said the young barbarian, and Cao Cao asked again, "How long have you been in Luoyang?"

"For two months, I'm resting in peace, resting in peace and fighting in peace. It's not good to go to Guishuang, and Xizhou has too much juice. Come here and sell.. There are few here, but the sales are good."

Cao Cao nodded, and asked about the price. Sure enough, the price of a cup was three hundred yuan. This time, Cao Cao didn't delay, took out the money from his sleeve, and handed it to him. The Hu people were very happy. This was his first sum of money today, so he took the money and went back to his own side, and started selling it. Old man Wang looked at Cao Cao displeased, and handed him a bowl of meat porridge.

"You old man, you are obviously rich, why do you always ask others to pay for you?"

"Hehe, I want to save some money. I have five sons. I want to arrange real estate for them."

"Then why did you give it so simply this time?!"

"You are old, and even if I don't give you money, you can't catch up with me, but this guy is a tiger." Cao Cao looked at the angry old man in front of him, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be angry, I It’s just that I’m familiar with you, and it’s fine to play around occasionally, but this guy comes from Anxi, so I can’t lose my face in front of him!”

"Hehe, if you don't give money, you can still get a big man's face. You really should become an official."

The two were chatting, when they saw Sun Jian coming over, with a sad face, sitting in front of Cao Cao, and didn't even pay a visit to Cao Cao, Cao Cao didn't care about these things, Old Wang saw Sun Jian coming, and hurriedly did another The bowl of food was brought to Sun Jian, and then he asked cautiously, "My third son. What were you doing the day before yesterday?"

Sun Jian was taken aback, thought for a moment, and said, "Drinking at an elder's house, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay, the day before yesterday. Hey, forget it." Old man Wang shook his head and left.

Sun Jian was sitting when Cao Cao suddenly asked, "Wentai, there is a barbarian over there who sells pomegranate juice, do you want to try it?" Sun Jian ate without saying a word, but after a while, he saw Liu Bei dragging a young man over.

The young man seemed to be a ranger, his face was full of panic, he wanted to break free, but Liu Bei grabbed his arm tightly and dragged him here.

Liu Bei greeted everyone with a smile, and then let the young man sit down. The young man's face was pale, and he hurriedly bowed to the two in front of him, but he couldn't say anything about his uncle. Liu Bei explained with a smile: "This young man is here Yuan Shang did me a favor earlier, and I promised to treat him to dinner, so I brought him here."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Great, old man Wang, have another bowl for this young man!"

The young embroidered emissary looked at Situ and the Taiwei in front of him, and was so frightened that he was speechless.

"Young students, don't worry. Recently, there have been a lot more barbarians in the city. Do you know why?" Cao Cao asked with some doubts. The embroidered messenger nodded and said, "It's all because of Xizhou Mu's policy He allowed Hu people from outside the Great Wall to come to Luoyang, live in Xizhou, allow them to do business and study. It is said that it was to expand the population of Xizhou, and many Hu people from Xizhou came to various places to do business.”

"Menzi School has absorbed the first batch of foreign students, and they will study Confucian classics here."

Cao Cao snorted, and suddenly remembered Xun You's proposal in the past, and probably understood the reason.

"Wentai, why are you so sad recently? But what happened?" Liu Bei looked at Sun Jian at the side, and asked suddenly. Sun Jian was stunned, and quickly shook his head. Without saying a word, he finished the porridge early. Fangcai said: "Some things in the family, the third son is not good enough, not good enough, I will go back early, alas, we will talk about it another day."

After chatting, Sun Jian left.

Liu Bei suddenly looked at Cao Cao and asked, "What do you think happened to Wentai? Why is it like this all of a sudden? I always feel that there is something wrong with it."

"It's all about family matters. Don't think too much about it. Eat your porridge well."

"Could something happen in the temple?"

The embroidered emissary sat aside, trembling.

In such an atmosphere of apprehension, finally, after they had finished their breakfast, Cao Cao and Liu Bei got up and left for important matters, leaving only a sluggish emissary in embroidered clothes, looking at Old Man Wang not far away.

"May I ask how much this old man paid in total?"

"Hey, another child who was framed. Child, listen to me, go to the county government to sue them now, and the old man will testify for you."

"Don't dare..don't dare"

ps: I wish you all a happy New Year’s Eve, good health, and all your wishes come true. The most exciting temple reform battle will be presented to you tomorrow. I hope that Chansan can bring you more joy in this festive season.
