Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 267 Taking my sister-in-law to Jiangkou
Liu Bei threw the question back, and Xing Daorong really didn't know whether to go or not.

After thinking for a while, he said, "My lord, if you want to contact the Jiangdong family, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it this time."

Liu Bei took two steps forward, held Xing Daorong's shoulders and said, "Zi Yu, I know this is not something that can be accomplished in one go, but everything has a beginning."

"Didn't you say before that Zhou Tai was able to leave Jiangdong thanks to the help of Lu Ji and other Jiangdong noble families?"

"Since Jiangdong has arranged the place on the river this time, he must be thinking about Ziyu's safety."

"I will make all the arrangements carefully, and there will be no mistakes."

have to.

After hearing Liu Bei say so much, I knew he really had something on his mind.

Xing Daorong said helplessly: "My lord, there is nothing wrong with me going there, but I am afraid that Cao Cao will move there."

Unexpectedly, Liu Bei did not care at all and said, "When water comes, earth will cover it; when soldiers come, generals will stop them. Even if Cao Cao comes with his army, does that mean I can only rely on Zi Yu?"

This is not something I feel comfortable saying.

If outsiders heard this, they would think Xing Daorong was going to rebel.

He immediately said he didn't dare.

Liu Bei was naturally joking.

Xing Daorong has risked his life for him countless times, so Liu Bei could suspect anyone else but Xing Daorong!
He just smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Zi Yu will go."

When Xing Daorong heard this, he thought that it was impossible not to go.

He nodded and said, "I will go and see what this tasting meeting is all about."

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Zi Yu, you should go and relax. I have heard that Zi Yu is a very talented person. This time when you go, I will wait to hear about your deeds."

Having said that, Xing Daorong had nothing to say. He could only return home with all kinds of thoughts in his mind.

That day, Xing Daorong held a family meeting to discuss the matter.

In the courtyard of General Zuo’s mansion.

On Xing Daorong's left is Ma Yunlu, and on his right is Fan Yufeng, holding Xing Hui, as they lazily bask in the sun.

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao sat opposite each other, while the young boy Zhou Xun stood aside.

The quality of Xing Daorong's family meeting is quite high. At least everyone involved is a beauty.

Even the scene of this gathering is pleasing to the eye.

They all looked at Xing Daorong with beautiful eyes, waiting for him to speak.

Xing Daorong said, "We are going to Jiangdong this time, or rather, we are going to the border between Jingzhou and Jiangdong. We have something to clarify first."

"I don't know what I'm going to do this time, so I have to be careful."

Xing Daorong was actually speaking to Xiao Qiao.

After all, the only ones who went to the tasting session were him and his sister-in-law.

Xiao Qiao said, "Don't worry, brother-in-law. Everything on this trip will be up to you."

Then Ma Yunlu asked again, "My dear, would you please let me go with you?"

Xing Daorong thought that this trip was still somewhat dangerous, so he shook his head and said, "If it were in Jiangling, it would be fine, but on the Yangtze River, it is dangerous."

"Yunlu, you are not good at water battles, so you won't be of any help if you go."

"It's better for me to go alone. I can come and go freely and feel more at ease."

Ma Yunlu listened to Xing Daorong's well-reasoned words, but he didn't know why he felt uncomfortable.

But even though she was the legal wife, she was a latecomer after all and it was not good for her to show off too much.

No one else said anything, so he didn't say anything either. Xing Daorong didn't notice the slightly changed atmosphere in the yard, and just continued, "It's settled, we'll set off tomorrow."

Everyone was busy again, packing the luggage for the few people, arranging personal soldiers, and then heading for the river.

When he was about to leave the next day, he saw Bao Long standing in front of the mansion with a smile on his face.

Seeing Xing Daorong, he smiled and said, "General, I have received an order from the lord and will go with you this time."

After hearing that it was Liu Bei's order, Xing Daorong had to give up the idea of ​​driving people away.

But he said with a little disdain: "Let's go, let's go, it's this kind of thing that you are most excited about."

Bao Long didn't take it seriously and just laughed: "General, you are joking. I came here because of the order of the lord. I didn't ask for this trouble at all."

Xing Daorong naturally didn't believe it at all.

He just waved his hand and said, "Let's go. Now that we are here, you can lead the way!"

Bao Longna was very experienced in riding, so he rode his horse forward and said, "Let's go! I'll lead the way for you, General!"

Having said that, he rode his horse forward.

Xing Daorong found it funny, shook his head, led Xiao Qiao and Zhou Xun into the carriage, and headed for Jingzhou.

The route from Chengdu to Jiangkou is now under Liu Bei's jurisdiction, so the journey was smooth.

Along the way, post officials in various places had already received orders to prepare boats and carriages for Xing Daorong's use.

Not to mention, with Bao Long around, the journey won’t be boring at all.

Look, right now Bao Long is reminiscing about the past.
"General, when you and I took Madam Fan to Changsha to seek help, I never thought that this day would come!"

"Do you still remember that when you spoke up for General Huang Zhong in Changsha, you were almost killed by Han Xuan!"

"If it weren't for General Wei Yan risking his life to save us, we wouldn't be where we are today."

Xing Daorong found the recollections interesting. At that time, he wanted to die wholeheartedly, and he spoke up for Huang Zhong only because he wanted to die together with him.

But now that he was talking about it, Xing Daorong couldn't help but start to "blame" Bao Long, saying: "Old Bao, you still have the nerve to reminisce about the glorious past!"

"I remember that you didn't move at all at that time, just ready to watch Han Xuan chop me down with his knife."

Bao Long felt embarrassed after being said that.

But he touched his head and said, "Shi Nian hasn't followed the general yet, so he doesn't know the etiquette!"

"It is only with the general's guidance that we can make progress in the future."

"The general is willing to sacrifice his own life, so we can't be afraid of death."

"To be honest, when I saw the general in Changsha that day, he was so brave and fearless, I decided to follow him!"

"Sure enough! I was not mistaken at all."

"Following the general, we will win every battle. We can defeat anyone!"

Bao Long said with a bit of pride on his face: "Let me also benefit from this. Now I am also a serious general."

Xing Daorong did not bother to investigate whether Bao Long's words were true or false, but just advised: "How can a general who always wins forget that he was almost defeated by Yu Jin in Guanzhong?"

Bao Long said: "General, you are a lucky man. Even in this critical moment, there is a way out."

As he spoke, his face suddenly changed, he winked and whispered in her ear: "The general gave his wife away last time, and he has been very lucky since then."

"This time I've sent you, the general, along with your beautiful lady. Who knows, there may be another marriage."

Bao Long was born into a hunter family. This is a somewhat taboo topic, but he talks about it openly...
