Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 341 Pan Yun Makes Trouble
Liu He had a rough plan based on his knowledge from his previous life. Although the Yellow River and the Loess Plateau in this era also needed to be managed, the problem was much less serious than in his previous life. However, despite this, he could not come up with any specific measures no matter how hard he thought.

"Forget it, forget it. There is no rush for this matter. For the time being, you only need to pay attention to one thing. Whether you go to develop agriculture, grazing or raising livestock, you must not destroy the plants too much. As for the construction of water conservancy, I will give you a book later. You can each copy a copy and take it to your post. Study it carefully. If you have any conclusions, we will discuss it again."

Although everyone was a little curious about how Liu He got books related to water conservancy, they didn't find it strange when they thought about how he had often taken out things that shocked them in the past.

Liu He turned around and went to the back hall and quickly gave orders to the system.

"Come on, exchange the "Illustrated Explanation of Ancient and Modern Water Conservancy Technology and a Brief Description of Technical Improvement" for me."

"Ding...item exchange successful."

There was a thick paper book on a bookshelf in front of Liu He. He reached out and took the book. Even though it was paper, it was quite heavy. He opened it and saw that it was very comprehensive with text and illustrations. However, it was mainly theoretical, and the explanation of methods and engineering was not detailed.

"It looks like this is another elementary product. I guess there will be advanced products after the fourth-level system. After this war, the losses and gains are huge. When it's night, I will clean up the points and see if I can upgrade the system to the fourth level."

Liu He made up his mind and walked out with the book.

When everyone saw the book, they were all surprised, especially Qian Li and Shi Tao. They took the book, and the more they flipped through it, the more surprised they were. They almost didn't want to put it down.

"My lord, there is one more thing. Budugen and Qianman have repeatedly asked when we will let them go back. May I ask how we will deal with these two people?"

Cui Jun asked.

"Well, I almost forgot about these two. I'm too busy to take care of them now, so I'll just lock them up first. Well... isn't that Kuitou still in the city's jail? Lock the three of them in the next cell and let them quarrel for a while, so they don't have to bother me."

"Here!"

Liu He's body had not yet fully recovered, and after just a short while, he felt a headache.

"Well, you will have plenty of time to read after you take up your posts. You should finish copying the book in the next two days and find an artist to draw the illustrations. Then hurry up and take up your posts."

"Here!"

The two of them looked at the book and couldn't put it down. They wanted to immerse themselves in it and had no other thoughts at all.

They discussed the selection of county magistrates and other officials, and then prepared to disperse.

Guan Yu and others retreated one after another, but Liu He gave Cui Jun a wink.

Soon, everyone walked out of the prefectural government together. However, not long after, Cui Jun came back alone.

"My Lord, do you have something to ask me?"

Liu He was drinking the medicine that had just been boiled and brought over. When he saw Cui Jun coming back, he quickly put it down. However, he was glared at by Zhang Yu who was standing next to him. He could only smile awkwardly and pick it up again. He drank it all with a bitter face. Only then did Zhang Yu smile again.

"You guys chat, I'll take my leave."

Liu He motioned Cui Jun to sit down.

"Military Advisor, is there any news about the traitor?"

Cui Jun shook his head: "This person is very secretive, and from all indications, it seems that apart from poisoning the lord, he has no other actions, so it is really difficult to find him. Could it be that we are too suspicious, and there is no traitor at all, but a spy from the Yuan family who sneaked in?"

It turned out that since returning to Yinguan City, Cui Jun, Guan Yu and others felt more and more that something was wrong. They always thought that Liu He's poisoning was caused by a traitor, so they had been investigating secretly.

Ding Yuan told them that he had received a secret letter from the Yuan family, saying that if he worked for them, he would be recommended as the governor of Bingzhou in the future. Therefore, Cui Jun and others believed that the Yuan family had used the same method, using huge profits as a promise to bribe someone around Liu He or in his mansion to poison him, but there had been no clues for many days.

Liu He disagreed with Cui Jun's statement: "No, Mr. Hua Tuo said that this poison must be taken in divided doses, one flower poison at a time, and once a day. Over time, or when multiple flower poisons are mixed together, the toxicity will be greatly weakened. And my dining location often changes, sometimes purely on a spur of the moment, and it is impossible for spies to know in advance. Only people around us can do it." "My lord, everything you said makes sense, but now that this person is hiding his whereabouts, how can we catch him?"

Liu He's eyes flashed with sternness: "The Yuan family wanted me dead, and now all their plans have failed, how can they be willing to accept this? They finally persuaded someone close to me to join them, how could they only use this once?"

"My Lord, do you mean to lure the snake out of its hole? How do you do that?"

Liu He was about to answer when suddenly a clear eagle cry was heard from outside. The two men's faces changed and they hurriedly ran out of the house.

I saw a huge golden eagle circling overhead for a while, and when it saw Liu He coming out, the golden eagle swooped down at high speed. Liu He took a piece of cloth and wrapped it around his hand, then stretched out his arm. The golden eagle fell down and grabbed Liu He's hand with its claws.

"Hmm? Golden Eagle Communicator, this is the most urgent communication method in the Flying Eagle Guard. What kind of serious incident has caused the You brothers to use this method?"

Liu He's face changed slightly, and he quickly took off a piece of cloth tied to the golden eagle's claw.

"My lord, what happened?"

Although Cui Jun was not clear about the communication level within the Flying Eagle Guard, he could vaguely guess that the matter was probably of some importance as in the past, communications were carried out by carrier pigeons and now it was replaced by golden eagles.

Liu He looked at the message on the banner and his face suddenly turned very ugly.

"I have repeatedly warned that as long as the Hu people naturalize in our great Han, they will be treated as Han people, and no one is allowed to abuse them because of their origins. He is an old man in the army, but he dared to disobey my orders and went to Qiangyin County to openly plunder more than a dozen Xianbei women, saying that he wanted to use these women as concubines for his brother Pan Xian to get married. This is simply nonsense!"

Cui Jun's face suddenly changed. "Oh no! Pan Yun and his brother have been dependent on each other since childhood and have a deep friendship. In this battle, his brother was seriously injured and lost an arm. He must have hated him because of this. He was also worried that Pan Xian would not live for a few years because of such a serious injury. In order to prevent the extinction of his family, he did something that destroyed the laws and regulations of our army. We should hurry up and stop it. Otherwise, once this matter gets out of hand, the prestige that the lord had among the naturalized Hu people will be gone!"

Liu He was also anxious. He didn't even wear the thick clothes that were necessary for going out in winter. He ran out in a hurry. Without saying a word, he mounted his war horse and galloped out.

"My lord, please be careful. Your body..."

Cui Jun chased out and wanted to stop Liu He, but Liu He ran faster than him and it seemed that he could not catch up.

"Oh, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

Cui Jun recalled Pan Yun's behavior after he learned about Pan Xian's situation in his study that day, and he couldn't help but blame himself very much. He hurriedly took a horse and chased after him, and at the same time ordered the messenger to quickly inform Guan Yu and others of the news.

At the same time, in Qiangyin County, right in front of the county government gate, a group of Xianbei people wrapped in tattered cloth and furs were kneeling on the ground and begging bitterly.

It is winter now. It snowed not long ago and it is drizzling now. These people are wearing thin clothes and shivering in the cold wind, but no one leaves. Even if their lips are frozen purple, they still kneel here.

In the surrounding streets, houses, and shops, many Han people poked their heads out to look at them, but the expressions in their eyes were different.

Some people were full of sympathy, some looked indifferent, some were gloating, and there were even some who directly shouted "It's so gratifying".

In the county government, Zhao Kui looked with embarrassment at a man sitting in the middle, eating meat and drinking. It was Pan Yun.

"General Pan, your behavior is really inappropriate. The lord has already issued a strict order not to..."

Pan Yun shook his hands impatiently, "Okay, you've said this many times. I've already said it. I'll take the blame for this! What's more, my brother and I have fought bravely for our lord. My brother lost an arm in this bloody battle and was seriously injured and unconscious for several days. He hasn't fully recovered yet. I just want a few Hu women for my brother to marry so that he can continue the Pan family's lineage. What's that?"

There was a hint of resentment in Pan Yun's eyes, and when he looked at Zhao Kui, there was even a hint of murderous intent, which frightened Zhao Kui so much that he took a few steps back.

However, he swallowed his saliva, plucked up his courage, and continued: "Although Zhao is not talented, he also knows that the orders of the lord must be strictly followed! General Pan is a soldier, he should know how to obey orders and not act recklessly! Although this woman is a Xianbei, they have been learning Chinese, farming, and weaving. Many Xianbei people have moved into the city and taken Han names. In a few years, they will be no different from Han people. General Pan's move may seem trivial, but it will ruin the lord's plan!"
