The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 100
Deng Ai and Zhuge Qiao saw the weird expressions on their faces. Out of their understanding of Liu Chan, they immediately guessed that Liu Chan had not given up on their own ideas, and they wanted to persuade Liu Bei.

But they were wrong, Liu Chan said very resolutely to them: "My lord has already made up his mind now. It is impossible for Jian Yong to convince Zhang Lu, I must go north to Hanzhong myself!"

As soon as Liu Chan's words came out, Deng Ai and Zhuge Qiao were almost scared to death. It was only a few days since this young master went to Jiangdong in person and almost died outside, and now he is going north to Hanzhong again? !It can be seen that he didn't seem to have learned enough lessons from the last trip to Jiangdong.

In fact, Liu Chan's strong personality is at best called going forward bravely, at worst, it is self-willed.

Zhao Feng, who was patrolling outside the house, heard it, and rushed into the house immediately, trying to stop Liu Chan from such impulsive behavior again.But when he saw Liu Chan's resolute look, he didn't dare to speak anymore.Because he knew that he didn't seem to be able to stop the young master's decision.

Zhuge Qiao said: "My lord, your trip is too dangerous. If that Zhang Lu knows your identity and takes you hostage, that would be a brilliant strategy. Think about it, with you in hand, how dare the lord Send troops north to attack Hanzhong? If Cao Cao sends troops to Hanzhong, he will send you to Cao Cao as an alliance. Cao Cao can use the son to blackmail the master! The son is alone, and he has a bearing on the general situation of the world, so you must pay attention to it!"

Zhuge Qiao's words made Liu Chan a little dazed.Of course he knew how important he was as Liu Bei's only heir.But at this time, I was already so anxious that I forgot about these things, that's why I was so impulsively involved in the danger again, without thinking of the serious consequences at all.Now that Zhuge Qiao is so enlightened, he suddenly came to his senses.

Just at this time, a family member sent a letter from Army Master Zhuge.Zhuge Qiao took it and opened it, then laughed dumbfounded, and said, "Young Master, Shi Zai, my father is truly a man of God!"

Zhuge Qiao handed the letter to Liu Chan, and Deng Ai also went over to read it.

It turned out that the military adviser told Liu Chan in the letter that he should remember the lessons of the last trip to Jiangdong.He knew that after the son learned that the lord sent Jian Yong to Hanzhong, he would definitely act without authorization, even at the risk of risking himself.Therefore, in the letter, he earnestly told Liu Chan not to be in a hurry, to see if Jian Yong can achieve results first, and then he will personally plan everything for the young master.

After reading the letter, Liu Chan sighed and said, "I don't have to listen to what other people say, but I have to respect the words of Military Master Zhuge." What's more, Military Master Zhuge had already seen through Liu Chan's intentions, and he must have prepared the next move. prevent him from going north.

Liu Chan closed the letter and put it away, then walked into the back garden with his head down.Seeing this, Deng Ai and others hurriedly followed.

In the early morning of the next day, Liu Chan did not wait for Deng Ai and Zhuge Qiao to come to join him, and was about to go out alone. Zhao Feng wanted to follow him, but he repelled him.Liu Chan walked into his carriage and ordered the coachman to take him to the downtown area in the east of the city.

The streets of the downtown area are lined with shops.Looking from a distance, there are signs of various shops fluttering in the wind everywhere, making a soft crackling sound in the breeze.

Although it is still early, the people here are the most diligent in the entire city of Chengdu, and the flow of people is already constant.

The carriage did not stop on the street, but turned to the back of the street, where there were many large mansions, which were the residences of rich merchants.

The carriage finally stopped in front of an antique mansion, a white wall stretched far away, and the plaque on the vermilion iron door read "Han Mansion" in gold.This is Han Long's new home in Chengdu.

The servant at the door was sleepy at first, but when he saw Liu Chan's carriage, he immediately cheered up, ran forward to help Liu Chan lift the curtain, and said flatteringly, "My lord, why are you so early today?" Come? Come, I will help you down."

In fact, Liu Chan had only been to the Han Mansion twice before, and he didn't expect that the doorkeeper was so sharp-eyed that he could recognize his carriage at a glance.

After Liu Chan got out of the car, he didn't need those servants to enter the house to report, and the servants directly brought him into the mansion. After all, Liu Chan and Han Long were very familiar with each other.

Liu Chan came to the inner hall and saw Han Long and his wife having breakfast with a son and a daughter.When they saw Liu Chan coming so early, they were a little surprised at first, and then they put down their bowls and chopsticks and went forward to greet him.

Han Long's son is called Han Ming, who is 3 years older than Liu Chan, and has entered the School of Economics of the National Academy of Medicine.Although he is much older than Liu Chan, but Liu Chan and his father are old friends, so he never dared to speak casually in front of Liu Chan, even when he was in front of others, he often regarded himself as a junior, which made Liu Chan very embarrassed sometimes .

Han Long's daughter is called Han Zhen. She is 13 years old and looks very beautiful.Before Han Long went to Jiangdong, she was already engaged to Sun Tong's son Sun He, and she might marry in two or three years.At that time, Liu Chan gave them a generous gift.

Liu Chan saw that Han Long's family was all there, and he was never formal when he came to Han Long's house. He came out too early today, and he didn't even have a meal!He very rudely asked the servant of the Han family to quickly bring him a pair of bowls and chopsticks, expressing that he would have breakfast at the Han family.

Seeing that Liu Chan, as the future owner of Yizhou, did not have the slightest pretensions, the family member happily went to the side to bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks, filled a bowl of porridge for Liu Chan, and placed it in front of Liu Chan respectfully. .

After having breakfast with the Han family, Liu Chan and Han Long came to the study to discuss business.As soon as Liu Chan opened his mouth, he asked bluntly: "Mr. Han, do you have a shop or commercial activities in Hanzhong?"

Han Long knew that Liu Chan's ability to ask such a question must be of great importance.But most of his business is carried out on the border between Jingzhou and Soochow, and the business in Yizhou has just started.

He shook his head and said, "Young master, no. I don't know why the young master asks this?"

Liu Chan told Han Long clearly about all aspects of Hanzhong, as well as the secret letters he wrote to Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.It was only then that Han Long realized that Hanzhong was so important to the entire Yizhou, but Hanzhong was beyond its reach for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, Han Long came up with an idea, please don't worry Liu Chan, just wait at his house for a while.Then, he called a servant, and after a few orders, the servant went out.

Not a moment later, the servant brought in a beautiful woman about 20 years old. Not only was she well-proportioned and tall, she was also dressed in luxurious clothes, unlike ordinary women.

However, although this woman was beautiful, what surprised Liu Chan was that her complexion was very poor, showing a kind of paleness.Liu Chan's first feeling was that the woman was sick, but looking at her eyes, there was a lot of essence, and it didn't seem like she was sick.

As soon as Han Long saw the woman, he said, "Miss, come and meet Mr. Liu Chan."

Only then did Liu Chan remember that this woman is Sun Yao, Sun Tong's daughter, who is now in charge of the Sun family.Back then, Mr. Hua Tuo and Wu Pu were almost killed by Sun Tong in front of Sun's ancestral hall because they saved her.

However, after experiencing the pain of life and death and the loss of her father, Sun Yao's temperament changed drastically. She broke up with her original lover and took care of the Sun family's property by herself. In a few years, she almost recovered the vitality of the Sun family.Her complexion is so bad, probably because of overwork.

Liu Bei didn't remember Sun Yao, but of course Sun Yao recognized Liu Chan, and went forward to salute, "The sinner has seen the son."

Seeing that Sun Yao was so cautious, Liu Chan obviously still couldn't let go of her father's assassination of her back then, so she comforted her and said, "Miss Sun doesn't have to worry about your father. I said in front of your family's ancestral hall the other day, you Your father's crimes belong to your father alone, and must not affect your wife and children. I won't pursue it after the fact, so you can rest assured."

When Sun Yao heard this, the nervous expression on her face eased down.After Liu Chan invited Sun Yao to take a seat, he said: "I heard from the teacher of the National Medical Academy that the Sun family has contributed a lot to the relocation of the National Medical Academy. I wanted to find a chance to thank Miss Sun in person. I didn't expect to meet you here today."

"My son is serious. My family of the Sun family should have been exterminated for nine clans, but it was only through the mercy of the son that the whole family was saved. If the son needs it, the Sun family will definitely go through fire and water for you."

Liu Chan saw that Sun Yao's words were impeccable, no wonder it only took a few years to rebuild Sun's prestige!Liu Chan then nodded to Han Long.Han Long understood, so he asked Sun Yao about the business of the Sun family.

Sun Yao was surprised that Han Long came to her early in the morning to ask these things, but since Liu Chan was present, it was inconvenient for her to have more questions, so she answered them methodically.

When Han Long heard that a month after Sun’s family, a batch of southern cargoes were shipped from Jingzhou, passed through Lantian, and entered the Sanfu area of ​​Guanzhong. Hanzhong, I wonder if it is possible to enter the Sanfu area of ​​Guanzhong?"

Sun Yao was stunned.This way of walking is simply unimaginable. Not only does it take a big circle, but the distance is more than doubled, and who in this world does not know that the road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky!The cost along the way is probably more than the value of all the goods.She had to ask: "Why did my father-in-law ask such a question?"

Han Long turned his head to look at Liu Chan, and said, "This matter shouldn't bother my in-laws, but Han has not started business in Hanzhong and Guanzhong, so I can only ask my in-laws for help."

Sun Yao knew about the friendship between Han Long and Liu Chan. Now that Han Long was looking at Liu Chan, she understood that it was obviously not Han Long's request for her, but Liu Chan's.

At the same time, she realized that the opportunity to get closer to Liu Chan had finally come, and said, "Since my father-in-law said so, even if the Sun family loses money, they will definitely leave Yizhou."

Seeing that Sun Yao was so alert, Liu Chan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and secretly praised himself for forgiving the Sun family, which was really right.

Han Long was also very happy in his heart, and said: "Miss in-law, if this is the case, then Han will never let you lose money. I will make up for your loss at that time."

Sun Yao looked at Liu Chan and said pointingly: "My father-in-law is too outrageous to say that. It is our honor that the Sun family can help. Once the batch arrives in Chengdu, I will immediately notify my in-laws male."

After Han Long sent Sun Yao away, Liu Chan chatted with him for a while before leaving Han's house, and went to the Medical Academy with Han Ming contentedly.
