Chapter 173: Sacrifice
Spring planting time comes, and autumn returns.
Half a year later, even Liu Lan himself didn't feel that he had undergone earth-shaking changes.
Yesterday, Liu Lan participated in the grand entrance ceremony with Gongsun Zhan, and walked almost around the streets and alleys of Lulong before finishing the parade and living in the big camp north of the county government.
Come home rich or famous?
And not as impassioned as expected.
Brocade night walk?
But the cheers of the people on both sides of the road and the tsunami still moved his heart.
But once I really went back to the school field, returned to the barracks, and lay on the thick earthen bed to feel a little steady, no longer the Xianbei people's Ao Bao dome, not a grass mound, very down-to-earth, even if I woke up in the middle of the night and looked at the moonlight shining on the thick paper around me, I would smile heartily, this is really going home, safe, no longer have to worry about being in the grassland!
The Karasuma people returned to their homes and mourned, the Xianbei people were busy quelling the rebellion in the central and western regions, the northern border suddenly calmed down, and the people who did not catch up with the spring planting were busy planting winter wheat under the organization of the government.
Liu Lan talked about the Taiping Dao that rebelled four months later, and the result was conceivably a gray nose, and he was told by Gongsun Chan that his first task now was to escort Dongsheng to Zhuo County, and recruit new troops to arrange defense, Gongsun Chan had already sent someone to handle it for him, and from the second day onwards, he became the biggest idler in the entire Lu Long.
Of course, Sima also has important things to do, but he still needs to wait for someone! And this is also the key to why he was able to drag Gongsun Zan and never went to Zhuo County!
On the third day, Gongsun Chan left, leaving Gongsun Yue and Dongsheng behind.
Gongsun Yue met with the eldest brother alone when he was leaving, and asked the eldest brother if he really wanted to sponsor Liu Deran to be the captain of Lu Longsai? (Similar to the county lieutenant, only the border has it)
Gongsun Chan was very dissatisfied and said I know you have some prejudices against him, but you can't say it, I heard people say that you are checking his old bottom these days? Why? Are you my brother?
Gongsun Chan snorted heavily: "I also saw that he was very strange, but this person is not fake!" ”
"The evidence is conclusive?"
"It's Liu Lan who can't be wrong, I've been with him for a few years, and that body shape and bone plate can't be imitated deliberately!" After Gongsun Chan finished speaking, his tone changed again, and he said: "You just know these things, put away these small actions of yours in the future, don't let me know that you have these small actions behind your back, even if he is fake?" As long as he can fight, as long as he can fight away Xianbei and fight Karasuma, he is a Xianbei person, Karasuma people, and even a slave Lao Tzu will recommend him to get rid of slaves, do you understand? ”
Gongsun Yue said with an awe-inspiring face.
Gongsun Chan laughed and said You don't understand, if you really understand, you won't check him, even if he really has something unusual to check him, it's your eldest brother and I will check, I am the lieutenant of Youbeiping, his boss, investigate him in the official face A Han general who returned from Rongbang is a matter of course, even if the king of heaven Lao Tzu comes, he can't say that Lao Tzu is one, two, three, but you go to check a bird? What do you think of the soldiers below when you make such a fuss? Think Lao Tzu's rewards and punishments are uneven? Jealousy?
"Big brother, I'm ...... I...... I know wrong! ”
"Wrong? Don't say the wrong thing and complain in your heart, you say that this kid is abnormal, it's not that Liu Deran, but he is not that Liu Lan Liu Deran, who else can he be? Xianbei people? He killed Helian, Karasuma people He killed Wuding, Buyeo Goguryeo people? Even if it were, what could it be? As long as he is dedicated to being a Han in the future, Lao Tzu will still treat him as Liu Lan, and he wants to protect him as a high-ranking official and a cute descendant, but if he has a trace of misdeeds, then don't blame Lao Tzu for not remembering the old feelings! ”
Gongsun Zhan left after speaking, and less than a day after the army returned to the mound, another fast horse galloped and entered Lulongzhai!
In the middle of the day, the fast horse came to the barracks and dismounted, and then rode a horse around the largest ** Wanlin Building in the city bazaar, dismounted, different from the previous days of the Xiao Xiao Wan Lin Lou today from the morning began to sound and chime, the chimes rang in unison, the horse riding boy turned over and dismounted, said a word to feed the best material and then entered the door.
Along the way, the ** little servant arranged for the house slave to take care of the BMW and beckoned the boy to come to the backyard after arranging the house slave to take care of the BMW.
Along the way, the old brothers who made fun saw Brother Tian coming, they immediately jumped up and put up a smile, the smile was full of sincerity, just like looking at their own children and nephews or even their own brothers, Brother Tian of the grassland was the second savior in their eyes, except for Sima, he was grateful to him, not to mention how many people were rescued in his hands, just a little Brother Tian was a scholar and had to admire, plus he was not as arrogant as other readers, with a good temper, he was lenient, and he was gentle and elegant when talking to anyone, and his style was extremely high. Among them, especially Wu Ke, at the beginning, the two of them were the most wrong, Wu Ke often drank too much and bragged that if it weren't for Sima, the kid would have died under his grandfather's fist, but now you look at Wu Ke, who prides himself on not knowing Tian Xiaoge, his eyes lit up the moment he saw Tian Xiaoge, and the smiling and courteous look didn't even care about the mother-in-law on the side.
trotted to Brother Tian and said, "Brother Tian, I have memorized all the words you taught me, do you want to teach me a few more?" In fact, Wu Ke also learned with him how to write his daughter's name and his own name, and now that he saw Brother Tian, he immediately came over and wanted him to teach him how to write his eldest brother Wu Nian and sister-in-law Wu Zhang.
"Sima Zhao I have something important, I'll teach you when I come out!"
"Then you have to be fast, otherwise my brother won't have time!"
"Running out of time? What's wrong? ”
"Hehe, isn't this war stopped, Lao Tzu's sins have been forgiven, and Ji Kang's boy's service has ended, and he is going back to Hedong!"
Tian Chou was stunned, I don't know what to say, there is no banquet in the world, but my heart is still hard to give up, and then I shouted to bring the wine, Yingying Yanyan came to a bunch of sisters, and I saw that it was a pretty young man who pounced on me, but that sound was crispy to the bones. Before the younger brother could shout, the saber on Tian Chou's waist was pulled out of the sheath with a bang, and for a moment it was not said that these sisters were silent, and the whole hall became silent, and then everyone looked at the place where the incident happened It turned out to be Tian Xiaozi, and immediately laughed again and said that the kid is a chick, I can't help you this!
Tian Chou took the wine jug from a sister's hand, and followed Wu Ke to a piece of Aiji, Wu Ke, who thought he was going to drink parting wine, found that Tian Xiaoge dipped in wine and wrote five big characters, isn't it the five words of the eldest brother Wu Nian and sister-in-law Wu Zhang.
Wu Ke traced stroke by stroke, and when he looked up again, he found that the kid went to the backyard and shouted: "That kid is in a bad mood, don't provoke him for a while!" ”
"You guys?"
"Get that fool out!" Wu Ke laughed at himself, lowered his head and snorted the wine on the table into his mouth, stretched out his thumb, and drank: "This ink-stained wine is fragrant!" ”。
Tian Chou was accustomed to Lao Wu's absurd behavior, smiled slightly, and said to the little servant on the side, You sue me for a place, I will go by myself.
The servants laughed and sang, pointed out the way to go, and turned back.
Come to the small courtyard Tian Chou take a deep breath of the unique fragrance of autumn chrysanthemum here, this small courtyard is full of chrysanthemums, probably the girl who lives in this courtyard loves or may be the girl in order to meet the occasion, at this moment the autumn chrysanthemum blooms, where is there a trace of autumn? However, if you talk about preferences, Tian Chou still likes bamboo, and the literati like bamboo for its pride, but from the moment he stepped into the courtyard, he was attracted by chrysanthemums.
Push open the door, cross the threshold, and go straight into the house without giving a report.
Sima was alone in the house, and he had already drunk a lot of wine, and he said with a smell of wine: "Come, come, Tian boy, come and drink a bottle with me!" ”
"What the hell is going on? Sima, why are you so drunk? ”
"A few people come to mind!" Sima said faintly: "When I saw Zhao Hong for the first time, I promised him to invite him to ** ...... when he came back" Liu Lan's voice choked, and he hurriedly picked up the wine spoon and scooped the wine into the wine bottle to cover his reddened eyes, picked up the wine bottle full of wine and handed it to Tian Chou, he took it and looked at the wine bottle in his hand is a large bottle, the wine in it is three or four catties, he stiffened his head, picked up the wine bottle, and drank it like a **.
"And Lu Gui and Chong Huan, I owe them a meal, and I made an appointment with Lu Gui to come back and I won't get drunk with him......" Liu Lan couldn't go on, but this time Tian Chou scooped up the wine for himself, scooped up a large bottle, and drank it all, this time he drank very happily, and the wine that was like ** just now is as sweet as sweet water with sugar syrup.
"The most annoying thing is Wu Ke and them!"
"Wu Ke them?"
Tian Chou waited for the following, he was already seven or eight points drunk, and Wuzi filled himself with a bottle, at this moment he drank like drinking water, and he didn't feel anything.
"Wu Ke, Ji Kang, Jing Shou and Qiu Yi, his grandmother's Wu Ke Jikang wants to go back to Hedong, Qiu Yi said that he wants to guard the tomb for the old brothers, okay, everyone has their own ambitions, I won't stop it, but ask Jing Shou, he can't collapse a single fart, miscellaneous, don't take Lao Tzu as a brother? Say! ”
Tian Chou had never seen Sima cry so sadly, he knew about Jing Shou, but he swore not to say to outsiders: "Sima, Jing Shou must have something unspeakable to hide!" ”
"Unspeakable?"
Liu Lan didn't know how many bottles he had drunk, and when he heard him say that Jing Shou had something unspeakable, he immediately laughed, he really drank too much, and said: "Come on, let's continue to drink!" ”
"Keep drinking!" Tian Chou drank three bottles, and at this moment he was arrogant: "Drink, drink his three bottles again!" ”
"That's right, you have to drink less, I brought you here for a few things, one is to write two sacrifices for Hong Boy and Lu Gui, and the other is to write a letter to the seed department to give Chonghuan!"
"Sima, don't worry, tomorrow I promise not to miss something!"
On the second day, Liu Lan said at Lu Gui's grave that you and I don't have much time to get along, just said a few words in a hurry, but the so-called friendship doesn't care about the length of time together, it is Lao Tzu's luck to know you, Lu Gui, who has made a promise!
Dry.
Sima knelt on the ground and read out the sacrificial text, and then came to Zhao Hong's tomb, Wu Ke, who originally wanted to take the opportunity to say goodbye, didn't say a word, and looked at Sima who poured wine into Juezhong, leaning over and shaking his hands, and couldn't even hold it.
At that moment, Wu Ke knelt on the ground and cried for no reason.
Sima knelt down in front of Zhao Hong's tomb with tears in his eyes, and his ears echoed for a long time Liu Lan's oral sacrifice in Tian Chou's handwriting:
Woohoo! Therefore, Bai Changhong. Only virtuous and moral gentle. Died without a crown, and the sky is unfair. Thinking of this sadness, drain the wine and tell the truth. Rong Di met, in love with the same compatriots. Friendship is irreversible, and the friendship of the neck. Settle in the wilderness, pull out the stream. The bullet man pointed, and the wolf tent raised the whip. When you come, the grass grows, and when you return, you return to the circle. I'm on the side, I'm dead. The world was turned upside down, and tears flowed from the voice. The road is leisurely, and the spirit is in a trance. After half a year, he returned to his homeland. Erect tombs and monuments, weep and worship. There are three unfilial sons. Death is in the front, too big especially the sky. Now for the filial son, an ode. There is knowledge under the spring, and it is safe to enter the earth. Three bows and nine bows, in front of the sacrificial coffin. Heaven is not benevolent, and it will never be known again. There is still a word in the heart, who can hear it. Wailing and whining, like a movie experience. Alas. The thought is poignant. Alack! Alack! ~~~~~~~~
