Sadness is a good thing. "

"Ah Liang! Can't you not make me sad?" Zhuge Jin laughed.

Ma Liang looked at him with a smile, and thought that he would forgive me, I'm afraid Liang... really had to do this...

So he said in a warm voice: "Liang should play a soul-suppressing tune to help my brother fall asleep."

Zhuge Jin finally fell into a deep sleep amidst the calming and slowing down of the tune.The fingertips of Ma Liang's left hand rested on the last tremolo, bloodstained by the strings.He looked at his fingers silently, then sucked them into his mouth, and a faint smell of blood permeated the air.Just like the previous Zigui battlefield.

The big man's attendant smiled lightly, got up slowly, and covered the quilt for General Suinan of Soochow.He stared at his brother's peaceful sleeping face, and said in a low voice: "Brother, I haven't seen you for many years, and your drinking capacity is getting better and better. I heard that people with a gentle temperament can drink well. But because of this, you don't doubt that there is him. Good for you Drink all the wine poured... If so, if you don't use the sedative, my brother will still refuse to fall asleep because he doesn't want to part with me..."

"Brother! Liang is here, first to plead guilty to elder brother. In the future, the Han Dynasty will be restored, and Hehai Yanqing will return to the mountains and forests with his elder brother. He will serve around all year round, and he will be punished by his elder brother. Liang will never complain."

Ma Liang was thinking about the bright future in front of the bed, while Zhuge Jin was in a deep sleep, dreaming about the little things he had with A Liang when he was young.Even if the sky and the earth will change color tomorrow, and the clouds of war will rise everywhere.Swords and soldiers meet each other, forever separated from Yuanjin.

***

It was near midnight, in the wind and snow, the two Habayashi men led the horses and looked at the horse attendant holding the qin, their eyes lit up.

"The waiter is also holding the sheep... Oh no, holding the zither?"

"How can you lead the sheep. How elegant is the servant, a song can teach the Wu people's guards and General Zhuge to fall asleep. Only you steal sheep when you were young."

Seeing their brothers bickering, Ma Liang couldn't help feeling sad when he remembered that he and Zhuge Jin were going to be enemies, but he still laughed and scolded: "You still have time to quarrel. Let's go quickly."

The two Habayashi smiled at each other, got on their horses together with Ma Liang, and galloped away in the direction of Wuling.

A few hours later, at the post station, it was already dawn.When Zhuge Jin woke up, he thought that the child who would hold on to his sleeve tightly when he fell asleep in the thatched cottage and drool on his sleeve would be sleeping next to him.But when he opened his eyes, he saw that Ma Liang was not on the side of the couch.Looking around the room, there was no one at all.The charcoal fire under the couch is still warm, and the fire will not go out.

He stood up, not even able to put on his clothes.But Ma Liang's luggage was gone.Even the qin on the case...was swept away.Instead, there was a book on paper pressed by a paperweight.Zhuge Jin picked it up and took a look, only to see it read:

"Brother Liang felt that he could not bear to see me say goodbye. My conscience missed the old master, so I left without saying goodbye, so as not to hurt my heart. I hope my brother will understand. Liang really likes this piano. Seeing it is like seeing my brother's face. Brother should also give it to you generously. If you get this violin so well, you can play it every now and then, even if you never get along with the king, you should have no regrets. The book is not exhaustive, I hope you will cherish it with extra meals, and you will see it for a long time."

"Ah Liang..." Zhuge Jin was stunned for a long time holding the letter.Sitting in front of the case for a while, Fang felt a chill hit him.He just got up and put on his clothes.It happened that the waiter outside knocked on the door, and he answered, the waiter pushed the door open and came in, bringing hot water, towel and handkerchief.Knowing that Ma Liang had left, he was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask more questions.He only told in a low voice that the chariots and horses were ready, and that the general could set off when he was ready.

Zhuge Jin secretly wondered why he slept so soundly last night, almost missing the hour.Sure enough, Ah Liang's soul-suppressing tune is already superb, and it has such an effect.

He didn't think about the wine he drank last night at all.

After a hasty breakfast, when he got into the car, the waiter used to remind him: "General, do you have all the seals?"

Zhuge Jin hummed, and out of the habit of being cautious, she reached out her hand to touch in the luggage, but felt that the shape of the tentacles was not right.He frowned, took it out, and opened the kit, inside lay a flat piece of suet white jade.It is what Ma Liang wears with him.His own seal was missing.

Ah Liang, you... this joke is too big!

For a moment, he still felt that Ma Liang was playing tricks on him.I searched my luggage almost all over, but I couldn't find the seal.

How important is the seal of General Suinan of the Eastern Wu Dynasty?Sun Quan Ya respected Zhuge Jin. At this time, he led the Nanjun prefect and commanded the troops outside. Therefore, everyone who passed the pass was allowed to pass through after seeing this seal.Without this seal, even if he went to Yiling camp, he would not be able to enter the gate!

He looked up suddenly, only to see the waiter was dumbfounded at this moment.Zhuge Jin hurriedly ordered: "Send six people quickly to catch up with Ma Jichang. Be sure to get back the seal."

The six guards knelt down to receive orders, but the one-year-old asked in a low voice, "There are two roads to the west. The main road leads to Zi to Liu Bei's camp, and the small road leads to Yushan in the south and goes straight to Wuling. Which road shall I take?"

Zhuge Jin's hair stood on end in an instant.He really hadn't thought of that.I thought that Ma Liang must have gone back to Liu Bei's camp.Can he go to Wuling?No... Ma Liang did not lead troops.How to enter Wuling.Even if you get in, you can't make waves.This is why he never doubted Ma Liang before.I must have thought too much...Ma Liangding was just being mischievous for a while, making a little joke with his seal...Maybe he did it just to make Liu Bei smile, so as not to be punished...

However, he still said: "There are two roads, go!"

"Yes!"

The wheels were rolling, and they were heading all the way to Yiling.Zhuge Jin was distracted along the way, and after two hours, Lu Xun's camp was already in sight.When Zhuge Jin came to Yuanmen, he had no choice but to come down in person to explain the reason to the guards because he had no seal.The man holding the halberd at the gate was also stunned, and quickly turned back into the camp to report to Lu Xun.

After a while, I saw the feathers in the camp galloping.The soldiers will be mobilized, and there is a tense atmosphere before the war.Zhuge Jin was stunned when he saw Lu Xun in military uniform galloping with his entourage on horseback: "Ziyu, your seal was stolen by Ma Liang?!"

"Bo Yan, I..."

"You just answer me," Lu Xun interrupted, "I have dispatched five hundred troops and ordered them to go to Wuling to stop Ma Liang. If you encounter resistance, shoot him to death! I'm afraid you won't be willing to turn around and blame me for killing your brother cruelly. Now you just have to Tell me, are you sure!"

"Bo Yan, why did things come to this!" Zhuge Jin felt that Lu Xun was overly nervous: "Ji Chang brought two Habayashi Lang, how did he get into Wuling?"

"That's not the case?" Lu Xun sneered: "Ziyu, you underestimate Ma Jichang too much! Give him an oar, and he can make big waves!"

"He is my younger brother, how could I not know!" Zhuge Jin's heart was flustered, and he couldn't help becoming impatient.

"You still treat him as your younger brother until now!" Seeing him like this, Lu Xun said anxiously: "Ziyu, wake up! Can Gao Zu treat Xiang Yu as his younger brother? The little friendship between you is between the two countries. It's worth nothing! It's just used by him to design and lure you into a trap. Ziyu, you've been plotted by Ma Jichang, don't you know it?!"

"Didn't he go back to Zigui camp!"

"No!" Lu Xun said firmly, "Those three people you sent to Wuling will never return!"

"Ji Chang won't be like this!" Zhuge Jin almost yelled.

"You...!" Seeing him like this, Lu Xun felt anxious, and said, "You are still obsessed! He followed you for ten miles and ten miles, and when he was about to reach Yiling, why did he run away? He left without saying goodbye while you were asleep. I just dare not come to see me with you! Ma Jichang had no choice but to hide this trick from a gentle elder like Ziyu. If it were with me, I would be a bystander, how could he use tricks against you!"

"..." Zhuge Jin was speechless.He swayed and almost fell to the ground.

Lu Xun grabbed Zhuge Jin and walked into the camp holding his hand.Wu Junjing looked at them all, his eyes wide open.They knew that Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin had a good relationship.Zhuge Jin was originally known for being generous and gentle, while Lu Xun was smart and sharp, and his age was similar to Zhuge Liang.Therefore, Zhuge Jin also regarded Lu Xun as his younger brother.

Lu Xun dragged Zhuge Jin into the big tent, placed Zhuge Jin on the seat, sat opposite him, and said seriously: "Ziyu, you are not someone who was mistaken for personal reasons. But now that the incident happened, Ma Liang took you If you go all the way through the checkpoints with your seal letter, more people in the court will say that you secretly communicated with Liu Bei in an attempt to return to the Han. If the Supreme Being does not believe this rumor, I will also make a statement to prove that you have absolutely nothing to do with it."

"..."

"Now, tell me anyway. You must be wrong."

"In case he doesn't go to Wuling..." Zhuge Jin said dumbly.

"Of course nothing happened!" Lu Xun took a few notes: "But he must have gone to Wuling! Baimei was only 17 years old when he was best known as Sheng Xiangyang. He was also the best subordinate who was brought up by Zhuge Liang. Liu Bei thinks highly of him. After many years of honing, his intelligence and courage are enough to stand on his own. Don't think that he is just a servant in the palace!"

"..."

"I'm sending troops today, but I can't save his life. Think about your brother Kong Ming's stubborn temper! And Guan Yu! He once guarded Jingzhou with Ma Jichang, and they were friends who had forgotten the years. Later, Liu Bei settled in Chengdu, fearing that Kong Ming would miss his righteousness. Brother, I couldn’t do without these left and right hands, so I called Ma Liang into Sichuan, with his attendants at his side. Birds of a feather flock together, and Ma Liang’s temperament is obvious. I speculate that even if he could be captured alive, he would not come to see you alive.”

Zhuge Jin stared blankly at Lu Xun for a moment, and finally said with difficulty: "...Okay."

Lu Xun got up and went outside the tent. The general ordered five hundred cavalry to set off immediately.When he returned to the account, seeing Zhuge Jin in a daze, he sighed, "It's probably impossible to catch up. It's half a night and half a day late. With Ma Liang's shrewdness, he can't be delayed on the road. You don't have to worry too much. The 500 If someone is gone, maybe we can only make up for it, and help guard Wuling."

"..." Zhuge Jin didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.At this time, Fang felt dizzy for a while, and when he got up, he shook again.Seeing this, Lu Xun was worried, so he summoned a military doctor to take Zhuge Jin's pulse.
