Chapter 517: Brothers Reunited
Jian Shuo left, but Liu Lan was not happy, and had the heart to tell the old brothers that the banquet was over, and he began to prepare for dealing with the white wave thief, but he still didn't say it in public, just clapped his hands and said brothers, you have to be busy, go back and prepare, after finishing speaking, Liu Lan walked to Ji Kang and said goodbye to the newcomer, but his heart was heavy, although Jian Shuo said vaguely before, Liu Lan still heard the subtext, what the Son of Heaven needed was a big victory, a big victory to set an example, So he didn't want to see the captives, even if there were captives, he didn't want Liu Lan to be merciful and slaughter all these ant people like Huangfu Song, but Liu Lan couldn't figure out why he couldn't treat the captives of the Karasuma alien race with the help of the Son of Heaven, why he treated the people under his rule without mercy?
Is it just because they are the people under their rule and have the stain of rebellion? Liu Lan couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out, if one day he was in the position of the Spirit Emperor, he would only execute the careerists among them instead of the ignorant people who were bewitched, so in the face of such a military order, Liu Lan felt unprecedented pressure, which made his heart chaotic, as if he was pressed by a mountain, heavy, he had been in the army for many years, it can be said that this was the first time he felt helpless and afraid of the conquest, in fact, Liu Lan has always insisted on staying in Youzhou, because he knew that the rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty was endless, He didn't want to do those 'fratricidal' things on behalf of the soldiers in person, but the arrival of the holy decree still made him unavoidable, he could only accept such a 'fate' arrangement, and had no choice, at this time, the Han Dynasty was shaky, but the foundation was not shaken, Liu Lan still couldn't control his own destiny, even if he himself was the biggest careerist so far and wanted to change the order. But he can only endure it now, otherwise he will be torn apart by that invisible pair of big hands in an instant, otherwise he is still a marionette.
This is Liu Lan's current situation. It can be said that this is the status quo of everyone under the imperial power, who controls their own destiny. Not even the supreme one can do it.
The careerist Liu Lan wants to be his own puppet but doesn't want to be manipulated by the big hand behind him, this is impossible, fortunately, there is a little thing to talk about and gratify, that is, there is a general in the White Wave Thief, and this person is Xu Huang, one of Cao Wei's five good generals, Liu Lan's mind became active, and he looked at the people who had retired, and walked towards Jikang.
And when Liu Lan beckoned his brothers to leave, Ji Kang's daughter-in-law, who originally had some ideas, became more and more anxious, and he was already very unwilling to let Liu Lan help him find an errand for his lover before he didn't say it. Seeing that this big man has something important to leave, how can she sit back and watch it anymore?
What's more, she is a little ambitious, what she wants is for her husband to stand up to the sky, not to be mediocre all his life, especially after seeing Liu Lan's demeanor, he thinks that his man should also be like this, with infinite scenery, so she was a little unwilling and looked at Liu Lan who came up to say hello with unusually resolute eyes, a man who was approachable but dignified from his bones. Perhaps, as Wu Ke said, being an errand by his side is far more promising than being a small official in the county.
It was just when Liu Lan and the angel went outside just now. Wu Ke and Ji Kang talked privately, although she never interjected, but she listened silently. He said Lao Ji, do you know, the old brothers who came back from the grassland with Sima have a half-official position. Now Sima has become the captain of the Karasuma school, and these old brothers have also risen. It's scary to say that the high rank, I knew that I shouldn't have gone back to Hedong in the first place, although it was a little dangerous to stay in Youzhou, but you look at the brothers who have been following Sima, which one of them is not a mixed dog, just say that Shiren, the master who didn't even look at the grassland Lao Tzu at the beginning, you look at it now, Wu Ke, who sighed, sighed, Zhengse Dao Since I let me and Sima meet again, this time I will follow Sima anyway, as for the family, I have also thought of a rhetoric, When the time comes, persuade them to go to Youzhou with my family, after saying this, Wu Ke said to her brother and sister, my brother is an honest farmer, and I am not the same as I have no fancy intestines, in the future, you two have a good life, don't be like my brother and me, make those moths, make the daughter-in-law sad and the children sad.
At this time, Sima came, walked up and said goodbye to the newlywed Yan'er's couple, and the bride who didn't want to wait hurriedly greeted him and said: "Captain Liu, I know that you and my beloved are friends in life and death, just now I heard Brother Wu say that he was going to follow you to Youzhou, I wondered if I could let my beloved follow you and get an errand by your side?"
Liu Lan didn't react a little, especially Ji Kang's strict wife, how he looked like her temporary intention, but although it was a temporary intention, as long as Ji Kang was willing, Liu Lan would not refuse, but he had that reluctant expression, which had to make Liu Lan dispel the idea of reuniting with the old brothers, laughed, and said: "Sister-in-law, don't be joking, you two are newly married Yan'er, and I am going to lead the army to go out, how can I disperse you." ”
She was irritable and impatient by Ji Kang, waved her arm and shook off her beloved, and said to Liu Lanzhen seriously: "Brother Liu, since you call me a sister-in-law, then you don't treat your lover as an outsider, if what Brother Wu said about your heroic deeds in the grassland is true, then look at where he still has a bit of heroic spirit now?" I don't want him to be a big official, I just don't want him to become such a mediocre appearance because of mediocrity, so I won't keep him, even if we get married today! ”
Liu Lan really didn't expect that this Lao Ji's little daughter-in-law still had the meaning of a heroine among women, so she thought about it for a while, and first looked at Ji Kang: "Lao Ji, what do you mean?" Unexpectedly, Lao Ji just moved his mouth, and his daughter-in-law took the lead and said: "Big brother, you don't have to ask him, I have the final say." ”
Liu Lan was dumbfounded: "Sister-in-law, you have to understand that Lao Ji followed me to be a soldier, to go to the battlefield, and he would lose his life at any time, don't you worry at all, just want him to go with me?" ”
"I know, but if he continues to be so cowardly, it is no different from death!"
This little lady is really ruthless, Liu Lan glanced at her more, I have to say that this little girl is really handsome, and I don't know what life he has cultivated in his life when she marries Lao Ji, but in the same way, Lao Ji's pride is not exhausted in such a gentle township, at this time, Lao Ji, let alone such a beautiful girl, looks down on her, even if she changes to other village women with mediocre appearance, she may not be able to live with him all the time.
And judging from the strength of this girl, he will never let his man be dizzy for a lifetime, maybe it is the reason why he hates iron and steel, maybe it is vanity, thinking that his man should be a man who stands up to the sky even if he is not a prince riding a white horse, and now Jikang will only make him more blocked, and this is undoubtedly the fuse that detonates the family crisis, maybe the first few years after marriage can still get along in harmony, but as time goes by, the deeper the contradiction becomes, the two are afraid that they will not grow old together, You must know that the concept of women from the beginning to the end in this era is not strong, and second and third marriages abound, which is not strange, so after Liu Lan pondered for a while, he nodded and agreed.
