Coincidentally!My name is Liu Bian

Chapter 132 Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan

"What?" Zhuge Gui asked.

Liu Bian said: "Ashamed, ashamed! I have been away from Nanpi County for a while. I have heard of the fire kang before, but the fire bucket...I am sorry that I don't know much about it, so I express my emotion."

"That's it!" Zhuge Gui smiled slightly and explained proactively, "The fire barrel, as the name suggests, is a barrel for making fire! It is said that the magistrate of Nanpi County modified it based on the principle of the fire kang, and it is very popular - the original fire kang is good, but But they couldn’t move to other states and counties, so the fire barrel was used... In short, the fire barrel is more practical than the fire kang!"

With his eyes flashing, Liu Bian understood: the fire bed must meet specific conditions before it can be made and connected to the bed. The steps to make it were originally much more troublesome than the wooden barrel. If he remembered correctly, the so-called wooden barrel should be It is: a round wooden barrel, surrounded by vertical wooden strips. The lower part is slightly thinner and the upper part is slightly thicker, making it easier for the human body to squat down... There is a built-in pottery round brazier, and there are two slightly larger barrels on the wall slightly above the brazier. The protruding "ears" make it easy to place the fire grid.

The place where the fire can be set will definitely be covered with an iron grid, so that if a person squats on it and covers it with a quilt or blanket, it will be completely airtight.

When the time comes, people can sit on it to eat, spin, chat, etc. It will be very warm, no less than a heated kang.

——Liu Bian recalled the fire kang in his impression, and guessed that the fire kang in Nanpi County should be similar to the fire kang he knew? ...stroking his palms, Liu Bian boasted:

"Very good, very good!"

"What's a good thing? What do you know?" Another person curled his lips and said loudly, "Thanks to you, you are still from Nanpi County, but you don't know what a fire barrel is, and you want Brother Gui to explain it to you...Brother Gui... You didn't say what the fire barrel looked like, so why did you say "very good, very good"?Have you ever seen a fire barrel? "

Liu Bian: "..."

Liu Bian's embarrassing face made him look at the other person silently. If he realized something, he still said, "You? Are you...?"

"This is my clan brother." Zhuge Gui introduced, "My surname is also Zhuge, and my single name is Zhuge Xuan. He is currently buying a fire barrel with me... It's a pity, it's a pity that we both came a step late. Unexpectedly, the fire barrel was bought by The Jia Mansion took it privately!

Now, Magistrate Liu has confiscated Jia's house again, so we probably won't be able to buy the fire barrels in Fuyang County.

well! "

Zhuge Gui sighed heavily.

Liu Bian's eyes curled up and he invited: "Isn't that a coincidence? - Since there are no fire barrels in Fuyang County, why not go to Nanpi County to buy one?... By coincidence, I am also going back to Nanpi County."

Zhuge Gui shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, the fire barrels in Nanpi County are seriously out of stock."

That's why you two went to Fuyang County, right?

Then, there are no fire barrels in both counties, so you have to go back empty-handed?
Pursing his lips, Liu Bian wanted to ask something, but he was afraid that the other party was really planning to leave... With his hands clenched into fists, Liu Bian silently shouted: I'm here, and I won't let you go unless you hand Zhuge Liang over. !Furthermore, even if there are no fire barrels in Nanpi County, I will find a way to get a fire barrel, earn money and silk from you two, and increase your favorability -

Taking a deep breath, Liu Bian said calmly: "To be honest with you two, I actually have a good relationship with the Nanpi County Magistrate! As long as you want to buy, I can ask the Nanpi County Magistrate to order a batch privately..."

"Really, really?" Zhuge Gui was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

"More real than gold!" Liu Bian vowed and asked lightly, "Are you willing to come?!"

Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan looked at each other, and said in unison: "Of course I will!"

"Okay, let's set off immediately and head to Nanpi!" Liu Bian immediately snapped the case.

So, Liu Bian took Zhugegui and Zhugexuan lightly, led five guards, and twenty disciples brought by Zhuge brothers, and rushed back to Nanpi County by night——

Liu Bian, Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan each rode in a carriage, while the guards and retainers all rode luxuriously!

Sitting in the car, Liu Bian suddenly remembered something: He was left behind!

At this speed, he will definitely catch up with the large army before arriving in Nanpi County!At that time, how should he explain his identity to Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan? …

He was thinking about when he could catch up with the army, but who knew what he was afraid of and what was coming: first, the carriage suddenly stopped for an unknown reason, and then He Xian's voice rang out from outside the carriage, saying: "Young Master! There is a situation ahead. !”

"What?" Liu Bian opened the car curtain and looked out. He saw what seemed to be a dark figure in the distance, and his heart skipped a beat.

At this time, Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan got off their horses one after another, came to Liu Bian, and said coldly: "Young Master, we seem to have encountered a bad person."

what?
Bad guy? !
Liu Bian opened his mouth wide, and his mind went blank for a moment——

No, no!
Compared to his blank mind, he was even more angry!
Hurrah!Who dares to do evil things in Bohai County?Want to rob him? !

Don't die? !
Liu Bian was furious.

In a deep voice, Liu Bian said: "Xian He, go find out quickly..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhuge Gui said: "Young Master, my disciples have just investigated! There are about five thousand villains in front of us, and among them there are thousands of mounts——"

Huh?
Does this information seem similar?

Before Liu Bian could react, the three people present suddenly heard someone shouting from the front:
"Your Highness—!"

Ok? !

Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan were startled: Your Highness? ——Isn’t it a palace stone?

Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan looked at Liu Bian in unison, and Liu Bian finally realized who the villain was in front of him...Suddenly, Liu Bian's ears turned red, and he became frightened for the first time, and said calmly: "Two gentlemen, I...I I lied to you, in fact I am not a businessman, but the governor of Bohai."

Liu Bian said the last sentence very softly.

Somehow, Liu Bian was embarrassed to say that he was the "King of Bohai"...

Zhuge Xuan took a step back, his whole body trembled, pointed his finger at Liu Bian, and stammered: "You... you... you are the governor of Bohai?!"

Liu Bian nodded gently, looking embarrassed.

Zhuge Xuan said again: "Prefect of Bohai Sea? Prefect of Bohai Sea? - You are also the King of Bohai Sea, right?"

Liu Bian looked at Zhuge Xuan: What's going on?So you know?

Zhuge Xuan covered his face with his hands, looking like he couldn't bear to look directly at him, and said weakly: "Sure enough, you are His Royal Highness the eldest son of the Emperor?!"

Liu Bian: "..."

Liu Bian wanted to deny it. After all, he saw that Zhuge Xuan was a little too stimulated, and he was afraid of overstimulating Zhuge Xuan... Clearing his throat, Liu Bian sighed:
"Yes! But I am not valued by my father..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhuge Xuan interrupted, "You are the eldest son of the emperor, that is enough!"

After saying this, Zhuge Xuan bowed to Liu Bian and solemnly said: "Common man Zhuge Xuan, pay homage to your highness!"

At the same time, Zhuge Gui also saluted again and said: "Zhuge Gui, the Prime Minister of Taishan County, pays homage to His Highness!"

Liu Bian blinked, pretended to support him, and said: "Two gentlemen, no courtesy! I am away from home, but I am actually visiting incognito..."

The implication is: Please keep it a secret for me!

Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan exchanged glances secretly, and then said, "I understand."

clear?What do you understand? ——Before Liu Bian came up with a reason, he suddenly heard a person in front of him say:

"Your Highness, I've been looking forward to seeing you!"

It's He Miao.

In public, He Miao behaved well. He got off his horse, came to Liu Bian, bowed his hands and said, "Your Highness! According to the report from Fuyang County, Your Highness and you are finally out of the city! We didn't keep us waiting in vain..."

Is this a lot of information?

Raising his eyebrows, Liu argued: "You... haven't left yet?"

He Miao said: "If His Highness doesn't come, how can we leave? - However, we have too many people and are afraid of disturbing Fuyang County, so we stationed outside the city and sent people to sneak into Fuyang County and wait attentively. Your Highness, your return!”

Liu Bian: "..."

Suddenly, Liu Bian remembered someone——

"Dare I ask He - He Xi...?"

Thank God, he finally taught him to try hard to remember someone.

Then He Miao said: "Has your Highness seen it?"

Liu Bian was speechless.

Speechless, speechless, Liu Bian thought speechlessly: I have seen it before, but...

However, this guy sneaked into Fuyang County and gained Liu Bei's trust!
What should I say? ——I can only say: He Xi is indeed He Xi, he is really amazing!
Liu Bendao: "Find an opportunity to call He Xi back!"

Although He Xi following Liu Bei was also a good way out, but Liu Bian remembered: He Xi, as one of He Miao's cavalry, is a talented person among talents. He really can't be sent out easily?

You know, among the 120 cavalry teams, Liu Bian feels distressed if one person is missing, and he must not be allowed to be casually ignored.

At least in the short term, the Cavalry really can't add new players.

With a flash of his eyes, He Miao said: "Just follow your Highness."

Liu Bian nodded, waved to everyone, and reminded: "Follow me."

Then, Liu Bian and his party successfully merged with the large army.

Later, Liu Bian and his party arrived in Nanpi County smoothly.
