The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

Chapter 144: The Bingzhou Governor's Officials

Liu Zhaoqing then asked about the situations of the people he was concerned about, and Zhang Liao shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

But she also comforted Liu Zhaoqing, thinking that if a great man like herself could survive, then those few great men would certainly have no problem keeping their lives.

This also reminded Liu Zhaoqing that those people were not ordinary people, so he put his worries aside temporarily.

Now that he had learned about the situation in Luoyang, there was no need for Liu Zhaoqing to go back.

Dong Zhuo's trend is already set. No matter how things develop, judging from the fact that he coveted Luoyang and took the opportunity to lead his troops directly into the capital, Dong Zhuo is likely to continue on the old path of his previous life.

Even if there were any deviations in the middle, Liu Zhaoqing also understood that Dong Zhuo, who was not a relative of the emperor, would definitely usher in an era of chaos.

Liu Zhaoqing did not have what was needed in troubled times. He gave Liu Bei the nine-character mantra of "store up food, build high walls, and slowly become king", but Liu Zhaoqing himself did not achieve the same.

So at this time, Liu Zhaoqing had to hurry back to his fiefdom. Although the northern frontier was harsh and cold to others, it was also the place where he started and the place that truly belonged to him.

No one knows when Dong Zhuo will arouse the anger of the world. When the heroes of the world come together to attack him, chaos will come.

Liu Zhaoqing, who had trouble grasping the time, naturally decided to go back as early as possible, and accumulate strength as quickly as possible.

In truly troubled times, a poem or an essay cannot be exchanged for a title, reward, or the death of an enemy. Without your own power, others won't even look at you.

Fortunately, Liu Zhaoqing had been prepared. His "reputation" was already well-known enough, and his initial "team" was also developing secretly in Pingyuan under the leadership of his wife.

When the sun rose, Liu Zhaoqing and the two girls also left the kind farmer's house.

Lu Hong took off her bracelet and gave it to the farmer's family as a thank-you gift. Although the latter refused such an expensive gift, under Liu Zhaoqing's persuasion, the two simple farm couple finally sighed that they had met a noble person and finally accepted it.

Originally, because Zhang Liao only had one horse, he was going to let Lü Hong, who had the weakest physique, ride on the horse, but Lü Hong shook his head and insisted on letting the injured Zhang Liao ride on it.

Then it was Liu Zhaoqing who persuaded her that Zhang Liao was the strongest among the three and needed to recover as soon as possible, so she got on the horse.

"It seems like we're back to that time again..." Following Liu Zhaoqing, Lv Hong behind him suddenly sighed.

Liu Zhaoqing and Zhang Liao also immediately understood that Lu Hong was talking about the time when the three of them met before crossing the river.

The three of them traveled together in the same way. In order to keep a low profile, Lu Hong and Zhang Liao changed into simple clothes at Liu Zhaoqing's suggestion, and Liu Zhaoqing did the same.

The three of them now look like an ordinary family.

"My benefactor, are we still going to cross the river?" Zhang Liao asked on his horse.

"We must cross the river, but before that, let's go to the post station first, and then see if we can find Hong'er's carriage." Liu Zhaoqing said.

Lu Hong had told him before that there was a lot of money and treasures in the carriage that Wang Yun had the servant bring Lu Hong out in, and it would be a waste not to take those things.

Moreover, with a carriage, Liu Zhaoqing felt that it would be less conspicuous if Lu Hong and Zhang Liao sat in it.

After all, even if these two men put on ordinary clothes, one of them looked heroic and could still be seen to be a soldier, while the other one's beauty could not be concealed even with coarse clothes.

When Lv Hong jumped off the car, she did not tell the driver where she was going, so Liu Zhaoqing was not sure and just gave it a try.

But unexpectedly, when they were about to reach the county seat of Chenliu County, Liu Zhaoqing and his companions saw a brand new carriage abandoned on the roadside.

Lv Hong behind her immediately recognized the carriage. It was the one she took when she left Luoyang.

"My benefactor...be careful." Zhang Liao reminded from his horse.

The horses and coachmen in the carriage are missing, which makes it hard not to suspect that the carriage has encountered some danger, and there may be criminals hiding in the carriage.

Liu Zhaoqing nodded, drew out the Water-Repellent Sword, walked to the front of the carriage, reached out and slowly lifted the curtain.

After seeing that there was no one inside, Liu Zhaoqing put away his sword and waved to the two women.

Lu Hong hurried forward, then looked behind the curtain at the carriage, her face slightly stunned.

Under Liu Zhaoqing's doubts, Lu Hong also said that the brocade and valuables inside were missing. Then she got on the car in a panic and went into the carriage to look for something.

"There is no bloodstain around, no signs of fighting, and not even a hair of the horses is left on the carriage..." Zhang Liao dismounted and came to Liu Zhaoqing's side, looked around and said softly.

Liu Zhaoqing didn't need her to say it directly, as he understood that the driver had probably taken the property away with him and ran away on his horse.

After all, after hearing the explosion in Luoyang, anyone who is not a fool would understand that a major incident has occurred in Luoyang City. In addition, without the threat of Lv Hong, the young lady from the palace, it is normal for ordinary servants to not be able to resist the temptation of treasures.

"Hong'er, it's just some treasures. If it's lost, it's lost." Liu Zhaoqing looked at Lu Hong who was still searching, and spoke to comfort her.

But Lv Hong seemed not to hear anything and was still touching the base of the car. When Liu Zhaoqing wondered if Lv Hong was the kind of person who valued money, he saw that she actually opened a secret compartment at the bottom of the car.

Under the surprised eyes of Liu Zhaoqing and Zhang Liao, Lv Hong took out a black rectangular box from inside. After reaching out to open it, a colorful light immediately shone on Lv Hong's surprised and delicate face.

"Still there!"

"Is this... the Seven-Star Sword?" Liu Zhaoqing asked in surprise when he saw the treasure emitting seven-star rainbow light.

Liu Zhaoqing didn't expect that Lu Hong brought this thing with him. In this way, it would not be a big deal to lose his property and horses.

How can ordinary things compare with precious spiritual objects?

After tying Zhang Liao's horse in front of the carriage, Liu Zhaoqing asked Lü Hong and Zhang Liao to get in with their luggage, and then he drove the car himself.

This way, not only were the three of them safer, but they also traveled much faster.

After avoiding many soldiers heading towards Luoyang, Liu Zhaoqing, dressed like an ordinary coachman, drove smoothly to the county seat of Chenliu. Then he found a post station, wrote a letter home and asked the post station's messenger to deliver it to his wife in Pingyuan.

After paying the money for the message, Liu Zhaoqing took the earrings given to him by Lu Hong to a pawnshop. After exchanging some money, he went to buy some dry food, trauma medicine, and other necessities for the journey.

Then he returned to the carriage and handed the things to the two women in the carriage. Liu Zhaoqing did not stop and continued to head towards the ferry in the direction of Dongjun.

Not long after they started walking, Liu Zhaoqing saw another group of well-armored soldiers coming up ahead.

After parking the carriage on the grass beside the road, Liu Zhaoqing continued to make way for the soldiers in order not to delay on the road. At the same time, he found that there were a lot of soldiers in this group, and the style of their armor was... very similar to Zhang Liao's.

"Are these Bingzhou soldiers?"

While Liu Zhaoqing was wondering, he saw a girl with a flaming red high ponytail riding a tall white horse in the middle of the team, coming towards him with a serious face.

As she rode her horse, her gradient red ponytail trembled rhythmically. Her delicate face should have made her look cute and lively, but the look in her red eyes was so stern that it made people shudder.

Suddenly, the girl stopped not far in front of Liu Zhaoqing, looked at Liu Zhaoqing coldly and asked:

"I am an official of the Bingzhou governor. Have you, a groom, ever seen one?"

Chapter 145 Fengxian is truly a loyal and filial daughter

Liu Zhaoqing never expected that the young female general would stop in front of him, especially since she was wearing black and red armor, and it was obvious that she was not an ordinary soldier.

The so-called "Yuanzu" is just a general term for subordinates. This female general might be a capable general of the Bingzhou governor.

Bingzhou is located in the north and is mountainous, so it is normal that the female general could not recognize Liu Zhaoqing.

He now looks like an ordinary coachman, and there is no possibility that he is a great man and that is why he was noticed by the passing imperial army.

Although Liu Zhaoqing is famous in Luoyang, this myth is about a person who could uproot a weeping willow tree in the late Han Dynasty. However, since there was no such thing as the Internet, most people in the world didn't know what he looked like.

Combining with what the female general just said, Liu Zhaoqing also understood that she was probably just asking casually.

So Liu Zhaoqing smiled naturally and responded, "General, please speak."

The girl with the red ponytail said, "Have you ever seen a pretty girl who is about nineteen years old?"

After hearing this, Lu Hong in the carriage was slightly surprised. Under Zhang Liao's puzzled gaze, her lips moved slightly and her expression became a little nervous. Then, after a moment of silence, she suddenly made a gesture to Zhang Liao to keep quiet.

Then, Lv Hong grabbed the corner of her clothes and clenched her fists, continuing to sit in her original position with a hesitant and slightly uneasy look. This made Zhang Liao frown, wondering why Lv Hong suddenly behaved like this.

Could it be that this person outside...is someone Lu Hong knows?

However, what is certain is that at this moment, Liu Zhaoqing outside did not recognize this female general who looked to be around 28 years old.

But judging from her gradually changing red high ponytail and a pair of eyes that are even redder than Guan Erniang's, this general must be a genius gifted by heaven. Judging from her temperament and the exquisite appearance of her armor, she may even be at the earth level.

"The kind of woman the general is talking about..." Liu Zhaoqing frowned.

The red-eyed girl looked at Liu Zhaoqing in deep thought, and the serious look on her face slowly faded: "Have you really seen it?"

Although she tried hard to suppress her emotions, Liu Zhaoqing still caught the anticipation in her eyes.

Liu Zhaoqing shook his head: "What I mean is, the kind of women the general is talking about... there are probably more than 10,000 of them in Chenliu, how can I answer this?"

"Ten thousand people? How is that possible?" The red-eyed girl frowned: "Sister..."

"A Zi? Is this the name of the person the general is looking for?" Liu Zhaoqing asked puzzledly.

"Don't worry about her name, but this young woman from Chenliu is definitely not as beautiful as the one I'm looking for." The red-eyed girl said coldly, and she was suddenly full of hostility towards Liu Zhaoqing.

Perhaps she noticed her sudden change in attitude, so she calmed down and continued to ask coldly, "Simply put, have you ever seen a woman who made you feel unworthy of her at first sight?"

this……

Liu Zhaoqing thought about it carefully and shook his head.

Not that he's proud, but this isn't the case.

Seeing the groom shaking his head, the red-eyed girl showed a hint of disappointment in her eyes, and then prepared to pull the reins to drive the horse away.

But at this moment, she shook her ponytail and her eyes suddenly fell on the carriage behind Liu Zhaoqing.

"What do you have in this carriage?"

Seeing this, Liu Zhaoqing said, "It's not 'what', it's my young lady."

"The general should also know what's going on in Luoyang. Ordinary people like us are not as powerful as the general." Liu Zhaoqing took the initiative to explain, and smiled bitterly. "So when faced with such sudden accidents, ordinary people like us should stay as far away as possible. The master asked me to take the young lady to seek refuge with my relatives first, and we happened to meet the general on the way."

The red-eyed girl looked at Liu Zhaoqing. Liu Zhaoqing looked natural and didn't seem to be lying.

But this carriage does not look like one that ordinary people can have. It is exquisitely crafted and made of fine materials, and seems to be a carriage that only high-ranking officials can ride.

"Why did you stop?"

At this moment, a question came from the carriage.

"Miss, don't worry. It's just a female general asking some questions. The general is wise and brave, and he won't do anything to ordinary people like us." Liu Zhaoqing replied quickly.

After hearing the voice, the red-eyed girl relaxed her expression. She glanced at the carriage, then at Liu Zhaoqing, and without saying a word, she pulled the reins and continued to ride forward.

Soon after, they caught up with a chariot in the marching team in front of them. The horse slowed down its pace and the girl kept pace with the chariot.

At this time, the curtains on the carriage were also lifted, and a thin old man with white beard came into the girl's sight.

The old man had a dignified look and an extraordinary temperament. Although he was nearly sixty years old, the gleam in his eyes was as dazzling as that of a middle-aged man.

This is all because he knows that he can gain huge benefits by going to Beijing in this way.

"Did something happen?" Ding Yuan asked the girl, his eyes full of concern.

The red-eyed girl bowed her head and saluted: "Godfather."

"I just met a commoner on the roadside. I questioned him to make sure he was not a spy, so I was delayed for a while."

"I see..." Ding Yuan stroked his white beard and nodded slightly.

"Fengxian is not only brave, but also thoughtful." Ding Yuan said with a smile, "I can say that my position as governor is not in vain because I can detect Fengxian."

The red-eyed girl remained silent, and Ding Yuan spoke up at this time: "This time we are under the order of the general to go and fight against Dong Zhuo, but judging from what happened last night, something must have happened in Luoyang."

"So we have to hurry to the capital. No matter who has the last laugh between Dong Zhuo and He Jin, our Bingzhou soldiers are strong and powerful, and we have Fengxian who is as brave as the Overlord. The post of the Prefect of the Imperial Guards should be in my hands, and I, the governor, should be promoted to governor of the state."

Ding Yuan smiled, but the red-eyed girl did not look very happy. After a moment's silence, she suddenly asked him.

"Godfather...did you forget something?"

"Oh? Really?" Ding Yuan was puzzled, then suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "Are you talking about the promotion to a noble title? Don't worry about that. When your father becomes the emperor..."

"That's not it." The girl shook her head and interrupted, saying, "At the beginning, my foster father promised me that he would help me find my sister and that he would do his best to find her if he had any news. With this promise, I agreed to recognize you as my father and stay in Taiyuan for the time being, and not go to look for my sister..."

Looking at the coldness in the girl's eyes, Ding Yuan's smile gradually disappeared, and then quickly reappeared.

"Fengxian, you are wrongly accusing my father. How could I forget about this?" Ding Yuan sighed.

"The Han Dynasty is so vast, how can it be easy to find someone? So I went to the capital to find your sister. After all, there are astronomical experts in the imperial palace in the capital."

"When the time comes, I will spend a lot of money. Even if I don't want the position of Praetorian Guard, I will definitely ask that person to tell fortunes for my daughter Fengxian's sister. Fengxian, do you think this is feasible?"

Lu Bu was silent for a moment, but finally nodded.

"I hope that my foster father will keep his promise. As long as you find my sister and treat her well, I will do my best to help you gain power."

"That's good, hahaha." Ding Yuan laughed twice. The more he looked at Lu Bu, the more he liked him.

"I have Fengxian's help, so I don't have to fear He Jin and Dong Zhuo."

"And Fengxian's deep affection is a blessing that comforts me as a father. My daughter is really a loyal and filial girl, haha."
