Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 330: It’s all about being a father!

In December of the fifth year of Jian'an, Jinling was peaceful and bustling with excitement unique to the New Year.

In the post house, Cao Pi and Sima Lang met Jian Yong, who had sent him a visit.

In the past two months, the General's Mansion had interacted with Xuzhou Mansion and Liu Bei himself twice. Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, Jian Yong came to Jinling from Xudu - Jian Yong had been with Liu Bei in Xudu before. Liu Bei made friends with the courtiers of Xudu and the staff of the Prime Minister's Palace.

Jian Yong was specially sent here this time, obviously to give a temporary result to the Donglai dispute.

Different from the last time he came to Jinling, when Jian Yong arrived in Jinling this time, instead of keeping a distance from Cao Pi and Sima Lang, he visited them openly and openly.

Jian Yong did not want to have any meaningful conversation with Cao Pi, the "proton" of the Prime Minister's Palace. He was just taking practical actions to express his dissatisfaction with the General's Palace.

It is also secretly reminding Bai Tu that Xuzhou Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion are also in alliance now!

Cao Pi and Sima Lang also heard some news about Qingzhou...

Of course, they heard that it was the People's Daily of the General's Mansion—Gan Ning led the navy, landed in Qingzhou, attacked Yuan Tan's rear, attracted the attention of Yuan Jun in Qingzhou, greatly restrained Yuan Jun, and helped the Xuzhou Army defeat the Qingzhou Army. made an indelible contribution.

It seems that if it weren't for Gan Ning, Guan Yu would have been defeated by Yuan Tan, and even the entire Xuzhou would have been pushed aside!
There are indeed some troupes who made artistic changes in the performance of "The Great Victory of Qingzhou under Gan Ning's Leadership", and even the timing of the Great Victory of Yanjin.

Obviously the Yanjin victory came first, but in the play, it was Gan Ning who led the Qingzhou victory, and then the main force of Yuan's army in the Baima area was frightened...

While Cao Pi was so angry that he scolded the General's Mansion for being shameless behind his back, Sima Lang basically saw through the essence of the incident through artistic processing.

It was analyzed that the General's Mansion was in Qingzhou, and it was likely that he had some "unhappiness" with the Xuzhou Mansion.

This is something that makes Sima Lang and Cao Pi very happy!

Of course, for "Cao Bang", what's even more exciting is that "Yangzhou Wu Zhang" written by her has been officially released. Even from the current point of view, it has been very popular just after it started, and various theaters have added schedules, and it is very likely to become popular in Yangzhou. the meaning of!
This also makes her more willing to collect materials and write new plays. Recently, she has a new idea. Combined with the recent increase in the Ministry of Punishment's encouragement of ghost productions, she will describe a wise and courageous young man who, starting from the ghost works, repeatedly breaks the miracle. He gradually becomes the chief officer of the Ministry of Punishment, eliminates villains, and punishes traitors...

While chatting with Sima Lang and Cao Pi, Jian Yong specifically asked, "Why don't you see Brother An Guo?"

Jian Yong had been to Jinling before. Although he didn't have much contact with the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time, "diplomacy" was Jian Yong's strength. He remembered all kinds of human relations most clearly, so he naturally remembered Cao Bang.

Of course, Jian Yong just asked casually. After all, when he was in Xudu, Jian Yong had not heard that Cao Bang was famous, so it was obvious that he was not an important person!
When Cao Pi heard this, he said with some embarrassment: "In the Ministry of Punishment..."

Upon hearing that he was in the Ministry of Punishment, Jian Yong immediately perked up and asked with concern in his eyes: "Ministry of Punishment? Did Brother An Guo commit something... But he shouldn't be sent to the Ministry of Punishment just like that, right? What did the General's Office say?" "

Jian Yong's concern and enthusiasm are naturally fake, but his doubts are somewhat real - could the General's Palace and the Prime Minister's Palace "break up"?
Or did Cao Bang really do something outrageous?

Otherwise, even if you want to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, you won't directly use the protons from the Prime Minister's Mansion!

It's just that for Jian Yong, this is a good opportunity to stir up trouble... Ah no, it's a good opportunity to express concern.

This is also Jian Yong's strength. Jian Yong, who has a free and friendly temperament, really can't be more genuine when "acting" to express his emotions. Even from a rational point of view, even Cao Pi can analyze that this guy has no good intentions. But... watching his performance, one can't help but believe it, and it's hard to turn a blind eye.

But this time Jian Yong's provocation was thrown at the blind man.

Hearing this, Sima Lang said awkwardly: "Ahem, Xianhe misunderstood. Anguo... went to the Ministry of Justice to collect materials for a new play."

Jian Yong:? ? ?

Even Jian Yong, who has always been adaptable and calm, couldn't help but look surprised.

Cao Bang?Writing a new play?Go to the Ministry of Justice to collect information?

How are these words connected together?

New drama...

Do you mean those stage plays that subtly support the general's ideals from all angles, and even charge into battle?
This kind of thing is actually done by enemy protons?

The Ministry of Punishment collects information... The Ministry of Punishment is actually so supportive?In Jian Yong's impression, Wang Lang was clearly not easy-going, even a bit stubborn, and had a strong fighting spirit!
Sima Lang looked at Jian Yong's expression and felt helpless in his heart.

After all, Sima Lang is also responsible for this matter!

Sima Lang had already given up hope on Cao Bang after he found out that the unscrupulous "Yangzhou Captain" was actually written by Cao Bang. However, after learning the outline of Cao Bang's script this time, he deliberately pretended to be his good friend. Suggestions - adding some dramas about fighting against the powerful, or even the protagonist being framed and killed by the powerful in the end, will be more able to arouse the emotions of the people!

After Cao Bang heard it, he also felt that it made sense, but...he made up his mind in his heart that "justice must prevail". After all, Chinese people always like a happy ending.

As a hostage in the prime minister's palace, Cao Bang had some dignity. He specifically used his status to go to the Ministry of Punishment to collect information. He learned that Cao Bang had written "Yangzhou Wu Zhang" and was planning to write a novel with Wu as the starting point. The new play includes the plot of whipping the powerful. Wang Lang even met him in person and gave him the green light in the Ministry of Punishment!

After all, Wang Lang had long disliked those powerful people who relied on force to bully the law.

Ordinary people would not dare to write even if they had Wang Lang's support, but Cao Bang... was a proton, even if it was just to add a head, his safety was absolutely guaranteed!
In the past few days, Wang Lang gave Cao Bang more smiles than he gave his son Wang Su.

Cao Pi and Sima Lang also immediately changed this embarrassing topic in front of Jian Yong. After all, if Jian Yong knew, Cao Bang was going to write "The man on the sea traveled thousands of miles to help his allies, but was stabbed in the back and had to fight back." "The story will probably look good..."

Naturally, Sima Lang now wants Jian Yong to "fake it for real" and actually win over Xuzhou Mansion for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although the Prime Minister's Mansion and Xuzhou Mansion are now in alliance, that is for Hebei Yuan Shao. If it is against the General's Mansion, whether the two are in alliance is another matter.

However, Jian Yong came to see them just to express his dissatisfaction with Bai Tu. He did not really want to target the General's Palace with the Prime Minister's Palace, so he just practiced Tai Chi with Sima Lang.

How to deal with the relationship with the Prime Minister's Palace and the General's Palace depends on how Bai Tu reacts later.

After all, Jian Yong also knew that Liu Bei, or Xu Du, was planning a big event recently. Jian Yong couldn't tell where the overall situation would go in the future. It was not the time to offend either of them rashly.

……

However, Bai Tu's life has not been easy these past few days, and he always attracts Lu Lingqi's eyes for no reason...

The reason is very simple. In the first half of the year, I originally wanted to get married in Jinling after the front line retreat in winter. By the way, I could also bring Sun Ce and Zhou Yu—Bai Tu, as the elder brother, even sent the betrothal gift to Wancheng!
However, the plan did not change. In the second half of the year, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were beaten on the head by Liu Qi in Jiangxia...

Bai Tu naturally understood what Zhou Yu meant and knew that this was a strategy, but... Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were not even prepared to return to Jinling before this strategy came to an end!
Firstly, not everyone can understand that it is difficult to save face. This is a strategic retreat. Otherwise... everyone knows it, and it cannot be called a strategy. Secondly, after Jiangxia's consecutive defeats, even the soldiers from Jiangdong will inevitably suffer from a loss of morale. There is still a gap between the downturn and the "solid skin" of Gan Ning's navy. Under such circumstances, it is difficult for them to leave the military camp.

And Bai Tu also understands that no matter what, it is impossible to get married at this time, otherwise the two of them will not be able to accept everyone's blessings, and it will not be conducive to the stability of military morale - after losing the battle, you still have the nerve to get married?I'm afraid that if Mi Heng's mouth is sewn shut, he will stretch his neck and wander around in front of the two of them...

In the same way, Bai Tu didn't want to marry a wife at this time.

Regardless of whether there will be a concubine in the future, Bai Tu is definitely going to marry his main wife now, and it is impossible to just move through the door quietly, and it is inevitable to make a fuss!
Now that the front line is so stalemate that even the generals can't come back, it will be difficult for Baitu to get a wife...

Even if Mi Heng can lick it very vigorously, I'm afraid it won't look good in public opinion!
It's just that Lu Lingqi understands, and it's not like she just decided to cancel the plan recently, but... As soon as the twelfth lunar month entered, Lu Lingqi still exuded resentment.

"Lingqi, help me go to Jinling Ji to see if there is any new information." Bai Tu looked at the time and said to Lu Lingqi.

"Oh." Lu Lingqi responded before going out and leaving.

At the same time, it didn't take long for Lu Bu to come to the door - Bai Tu had quietly asked someone to find him.

That's right, although they can't get married for the time being, but... Bai Tu is ready to settle the matter first!

It's just that Lu Lingqi usually follows him, and Bai Tu is too embarrassed to tell his adoptive father about this. Today, Bai Tu is ready and specially told Yu Ji to hold Lu Lingqi at Cheng Ji's Mansion.

"Hard disk, what do you want to see me for?" Lu Bu asked casually after coming in.

Because he was looking for someone to inform in private, and Baitu was the only one who came in, so Lu Bu knew it was a private matter.

As he spoke, Lu Bu looked around, then frowned and said, "What's going on with Lingqi? Why isn't she here?" As if she was dissatisfied, Lu Lingqi left her post without permission.

"Ahem, foster father... Actually, I came to see you because I have something important to do, and it has something to do with Lingqi." Bai Tu said a little shyly.

It's a pity that Bai Tu doesn't have his parents around, so he can only talk about this matter himself.

"What's wrong?" Lu Bu asked curiously after seeing Bai Tu's expression.

"It's... the child's marriage." Bai Tu said with a hot face.

"Marriage... good boy! You finally thought about marriage! Do you want to go to Zhang's house for your father to talk about marriage? Don't worry, it will be on Weifu!" Lu Bu was surprised when he heard this.

Bai Tu:? ? ?
"What Zhang family?" Bai Tu interrupted confusedly.

Lu Bu said matter-of-factly: "Well? I heard someone said that you fell in love with a girl from the Zhang family. When you were at the Naxian Hall, didn't you ask her if she was getting married? Don't worry, what's the relationship between Uncle Ya and I? Not to mention being able to marry you with the hard disk, they..."

But at this moment, Lu Lingqi didn't know why, instead of being dragged to Cheng Ji's mansion, she had turned back to the middle hall.

He happened to hear these words outside the door - Lu Bu heard the footsteps, but he also recognized that it was Lu Lingqi, so he didn't pay attention.

Bai Tu immediately interrupted without realizing it: "Wait! Foster father... please recall again, I just said that he is related to Lingqi..."
