Baume & Mercier Wanhua

"My lord, A Liang said that there was a problem with the preparation of gunpowder, so I'm going to take a walk outside the city later, okay?" Rubbing his wrist, Gu Qi tidied up the bound booklets under his hands, looked up at Lu Bu and asked road.

Apart from the military camp, there is a place for experimenting gunpowder not far from the city. It is not an easy place to enter. If you only go to the military camp, Gu Qi does not need to greet Lu Bu, but it is different if you go to the side. Lu Fengxian is on this matter. The control was surprisingly strict, except for the people he sent over, even Gu Qi and Guo Jia had to get his permission before they could enter.

The preparation of gunpowder is kept secret, and the best effect can be achieved by surprise. Lu Bu will not be so stupid as to not take any measures.

"Together!" Without even thinking about it, Lu Bu raised his eyes and answered directly. Seeing that there were still a lot of official documents left, he accelerated the speed of reviewing.

Curling his lips, seeing Lu Bu's attentive appearance, Guo Jia put down the pen in his hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Qi, "There is nothing important going on, how about bringing Jia along?"

Guo Jia hadn’t really experienced the power of a bomb explosion yet. No matter what he said before, it was just what he said, and he never saw it with his own eyes. Thinking about it, Gu Qi turned to ask Lu Bu’s opinion, “My lord?”

"Then let's go together!"

The tone is completely different from just now, if there is no reason to disagree, Guo Fengxiao is surrounded by this bad (?) Guo Fengxiao, how hard is it for him?

So, Lu Bu looked at the embarrassing Guo Jia expressionlessly, snorted coldly and buried his head in reviewing the official documents on the table.

On the matter of Gu Qi, the two of them have surprisingly the same thoughts, and Shang Jinshu must not be alone with Guo Fengxiao and Lu Fengxian!

When Guo Jia and Lu Bu didn't like each other at first, Gu Qi was a little worried, but after a long time, he also got used to the way these two get along.

It is recorded in the history books that when Cao Cao served as a counselor, Guo Fengxiao was arrogant and presumptuous. He didn't pay attention to anyone, and he couldn't rectify military discipline. It shows how presumptuous his actions are.

But back then, Cao Cao was behind him, and now he is directly confronting his boss, Lu Bu... Ordinary people like ghosts can't understand... Can't understand...

After looking at each other tacitly, Lu Bu and Guo Jia turned their heads at the same time, and then struggled with the remaining bamboo slips. Neither of them could go out if they couldn't finish their business.

After a while, Guo Jia stretched and stood up after completing the task, and handed to Lu Bu a bamboo slip that had been specially placed at hand just now.

"I'll report later that Liu Xuande abandoned Gongsun Zan and went to Jingzhou to join Liu Biao. Liu Jingsheng personally went to the outskirts to meet Liu Bei, treated him as a guest, and even let him live in Xinye. Tsk, Liu Jingsheng's move is likely to lure wolves into the house."

"I just want to show my benevolence and generosity, but I don't see what kind of person I meet. This Liu Jingsheng... is not a kingly talent, but he wants to treat himself as Xibo. He will never fail!" Guo Jia shook his head. Liu Biao's way of doing things only made him feel that the difficulty of collecting Jingzhou in the future has been reduced by more than 01:30 points.

"Liu Jingsheng is unwilling to employ people, and Liu Xuande is known for his benevolence and righteousness. It's strange that the heroes and talents in Jingzhou don't go to seek refuge." As soon as Guo Jia's voice fell, Lu Bu followed suit and sarcastically said, "Then why would Liu Jingsheng just watch others in his territory? If he grows bigger, he will definitely take precautions secretly, so Liu Xuande is even more of a hypocrite, otherwise why would he abandon Gongsun Zan and go to Jingzhou?"

"My lord's words are true!" Without rushing to refute Lv Bu, Guo Jia smiled. He never mixed personal feelings into business matters. Others are guarding two points, on the surface a benevolent and righteous gentleman may not be as he appears on the inside."

Lu Bu is not a person who can't understand pen and ink. When he satirizes people, his mouth is as poisonous as Guo Jia. Although at first he valued martial arts and despise literature, but after he arrived in Xuzhou, he was tortured by the piles of bamboo slips. a bit more.

Listening to Lu Bu and Guo Jia saying that Liu Bei and Liu Biao are useless, Gu Qi blinked his eyes, and did not comment on the two people who felt good about themselves and went around to praise themselves. They even had the same thoughts. Can you say they have a bad relationship?

However, since Jingzhou is mentioned, their next goal is probably Jingzhou. Jingzhou, which is rich in supplies, is really eye-catching.

Just as Gu Qi was thinking, Guo Jia poked his arm, "The brocade book is from Yizhou, have you ever thought about going back since you came out?"

The atmosphere between the two people who had been in the same tone just now changed instantly. Hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his knife-like eyes scratched him again and again. The general wanted to throw Guo Fengxiao out directly.

Yizhou is so far away, how long will it take for Jinshu to come back?

After working hard for so many years, although he was born in Bingzhou, except for the first few years, Lu Bu was not too attached to Bingzhou, but he didn't want his hometown, which didn't mean Jinshu didn't want to!

His body stiffened involuntarily, and in a place where the people around him couldn't see, Lu Bu clenched his fists and stared at Gu Qi's reaction, for fear that he would rush to Yizhou because of Guo Jia's words. up.

Blinking his eyes, looking at Guo Jia who suddenly said such a sentence, the infinite scenery of Wanhua Valley appeared in Gu Qi's mind, but the time gap is not as easy to bridge as the geographical distance .

Yizhou is just a cover. What he really wants to return to is the Valley of Thousand Flowers hidden in the Qinling Mountains, or his relatives and friends far away in modern times.

Seeing Gu Qi's eyes stained with deep nostalgia, Guo Jia scolded himself secretly, telling you to speak without thinking, now you are doing well, you must have made Jin Shu sad!

However, Gu Qi's emotions come and go quickly. He is not someone who is immersed in the past and cannot get out. Instead of thinking about the place where he doesn't know if he can go back, it is better to grasp the present.

Quickly dealt with his emotions, Gu Qi looked at Guo Jia and smiled slightly, "Feng Xiao has been out for a long time, don't you think about going back to Yingchuan?"

Jokingly exposed the problem, Gu Qi said that if he wanted to go back, he must be able to go back, and now, there are so many people who are worth caring about here, even if there is a chance to go back, he will do it It's not like what I thought at first, I have to leave regardless of everything.

After being asked back by Gu Qi, Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Lu Bu with his hands on his head, "The 'Huns' are still alive, why do you think they are home? My lord thinks so?"

Reassured by Gu Qi's reaction, Lu Bu heaved a sigh of relief, and his brain, which had already turned into a paste, started to function again, "What Feng Xiao said is true, the 'Hun' is not destroyed, why is it home?"

It is not a hundred years ago that the big man was invaded by the Huns, and the border was harassed. Therefore, the Huns mentioned by these two people are definitely not what they mean on the surface.

Gu Qi naturally understood this point, after thinking for a while, he also thought about the meaning of Guo Jia's nonsensical question just now.

Next to Jingzhou is Yizhou. Guo Fengxiao wants to take Jingzhou and enter Yizhou in one fell swoop!

"Feng Xiao thinks, what is the probability of our success in attacking Jingzhou now?" Raising his eyebrows, Gu Qi clasped his fingers on the table and made a crisp sound.

"Before Liu Xuande goes, Jia is [-]% sure. After all, Liu Jingsheng has been operating in Jingzhou for so long, and the foundation cannot be easily shaken."

Curling the corners of his lips, Guo Jia stacked all the bamboo slips at hand, and then drew a circle in the vacant space, "But now, with Liu Xuande there, Jia is [-]% sure that he will win Jingzhou in one fell swoop."

After crossing the drawn circle with his finger, Guo Jia got up and stood with his hands behind his back, "Liu Xuande is not as gentlemanly as he appears, within half a year, Jingzhou will definitely be divided into two factions, people who were originally under Liu Jingsheng will also do it It’s good to plan with two hands, not to mention, the grievances between the Kuai family and the Cai family in Jingzhou have a long history, and a little operation at that time will get excellent results.”

"Liu Biao doesn't pay much attention to military affairs, he doesn't have any strong soldiers and good generals in his hands, Fu Yiwen Yuanzi Long Bofu, who is not the only general in the cloth army, even the terrain of Jingzhou is difficult to defend and difficult to attack, it just takes more time. "

Sitting on the side, Lu Bu added, looking up at the world with great momentum, speaking of these words is full of self-importance and domineering, which makes people like it.

"Wait until the soldiers are finished, then discuss how to attack Jingzhou!" Gu Qi brought back the two people who wanted to continue talking to reality. Conquer the world.

They just swallowed a large piece of fat, and they haven't finished digesting it yet. Everyone knows the truth that they can't eat more than they can chew, so he doesn't need to say more, and as far as the present is concerned, it is not the best time to attack Jingzhou.

After saying a few words, Gu Qi got up and prepared to go back and pack up. After preparing for the afternoon, he went outside the city to see how the progress was going. If he could get more gunpowder before attacking Jingzhou, the natural danger in Jingzhou might not be able to be a natural danger. of use.

However, before Gu Qi could go out, a soldier came to report that Sun Ce had arrived at the city gate and exchanged glances with Guo Jia. Gu Qi was not in a hurry to leave, and just waited for Sun Ce to come back.

Regarding the fact that the bully Sun Bofu took Yangzhou easily this time, Gu Qi really felt a little unbelievable. If he hadn't thought about the matter several times from the beginning to the end, he really couldn't believe it was true.

The power of the aristocratic family is intricate, even when Sun Quan later established the Wu Kingdom, he suffered a lot. How did Sun Ce submit so easily? Could it be because of Lu Bu's face?

Just kidding!

Thinking of going with Gu Qi, Guo Jia was also very curious. He didn't expect that Bo Fu would only bicker and fight with Wen Yuan on weekdays, and he was so efficient in doing business. When he came back and asked carefully, they also studied hard.

The situation in Xuzhou did not really open until after a cold winter. Guo Jia knew better than Gu Qi how difficult it would be for those aristocratic families to attack. A Lu Fengxian hadn't reached the point where he could easily make the Jiangdong clan favor him.

So, Guo Jia walked up to Gu Qi, and the two discussed again why it was so easy for Sun Ce to attack Yangzhou. They couldn't just let him go just because he was young!

Gazing at Guo Jia, Lu Bu moved his hands and feet, waiting for Sun Ce to come over. He originally calculated that it would take a few days to arrive, but he didn't expect this kid to come back so soon.

After a while, Sun Ce, who brought Gu Yong with him, arrived at the General's Mansion, and greeted the soldiers at the door. Sun Bofu, whose face was still excited, saluted Lu Bu inside, and looked up at the three people in front of him. curious.

What's the situation, are Mr. Jin Shu and Mr. Feng Xiao both working here now?

Thinking of this, Sun Ce turned his head and glanced at Gu Yong who was following behind. Gong Jin said that he would not let himself be involved in the matter between Mr. Jin Shu and Mr. Yuan Tan, but in this situation, he should not be blamed, right?

He didn't know that Mr. Jin Shu would be here, so he touched his nose, and Sun Ce waited obediently for Lu Bu to speak.

After entering, Gu Yong saw the young man standing next to Guo Jia at a glance. He wore a dark coat with wide sleeves and long lapels, simple embroidery patterns and exquisite styles. He didn't need to think carefully to know that he was living a good life here.

A pair of bright eyes are more like a bay of clear water, warm and clear, whether it is clothing or appearance, they are elegant and handsome to the extreme, this is Ah Jin...

Looking at Gu Qi's ink-like long hair scattered behind his back, a trace of guilt flashed in Gu Yong's eyes. Ah Jin has already reached the age of crowning, but now he still hasn't tied up his hair. If there are elders by his side, how could it be like this? scene?

This... is really a misunderstanding!

Are there disciples with hair crowns in the Valley of Thousand Flowers?

No!

Guo Jia, including Lu Bu, had asked about the coronation, but Gu Qi blocked them all on the grounds that all the masters were disheveled. As a disciple of Wanhua, he still insisted.

So, even though I don't understand why Gu Qi's mysterious teacher doesn't wear a hair crown, and there is no one around him to compete with him on it, it's not that there are people who don't wear a hair crown in the world.

Obviously, Gu Yong didn't know the twists and turns, so he felt even more guilty towards Gu Qi in his heart.

Seeing Gu Yong staring at Gu Qi non-stop, Lu Bu frowned and walked down to block his sight, even though this person looks somewhat similar to Jin Shu, it's not the reason why he can keep staring at his sweetheart non-stop .

Aware of Lu Bu's vigilance towards him, Gu Yong withdrew his gaze from Gu Qi, straightened his expression and saluted Lu Bu, and then said, "Gu Yong, Gu family of Wu County, has seen General Lu."

When he came back this time, the little emperor gave Lu Bu the position of General, a first-rank official. If he didn't know how many years he had to fight for an official position a hundred years ago, he was easily sent out by the little emperor now.

Therefore, the general that Gu Yong talked about, and the general that everyone in the army habitually shouted in peacetime obviously did not mean the same thing, and it was much more formal.

Nodding his head, he heard what he said. Lu Bu asked Guo Jia to come out to negotiate with Gu Yong. Although it was fine to deal with literati, there was Guo Fengxiao by his side, so he didn't need to bother with that.

Guo Jia, who wanted to whisper to Gu Qi, rushed to Gu Yong's side, and Lu Bu, who saw Gu Qi's strangeness at a glance, walked directly to him, and then gently patted his shoulder to bring his thoughts back.

It wasn't until Gu Yong's line of sight was blocked by Lu Bu's tall body that Gu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, like a telepathy, the moment this person came in, he met those dark eyes.

If he hadn't been sure that he had no relatives or friends here, he would really have thought that this person was his family member, but no matter which memory he searched for, it was impossible to find relatives and friends here!

Thinking of the few words that Zhou Yu asked without thinking last time, Gu Qi's intuition told him that this is the Gu Yong that Zhou Yu said, and then, Gu Yong's words confirmed his guess.

Taking a dazed glance at Lu Bu standing beside him, Gu Qi's heart suddenly settled down. It was probably just a coincidence. There are so many people in the world, and it is not impossible for there to be one or two people who look like him.

Perhaps it was because of his similar appearance that Zhou Yu thought he was the child Gu lost many years ago, but how could this be possible?

Shaking his head, he glanced at Gu Yong, who was talking to Guo Jia in a gentle and elegant manner. Gu Qi suppressed the weirdness in his heart and retracted his thoughts. He pushed Lu Bu's arm, and then pointed to the man who was standing aside, watching his nose, nose and nose. Heart's Sun Bofu.

Sun Ce didn't mind being ignored for such a short while. On the way back to Xiapi, he felt that Gu Yong's attention to Gu Qi was unusual, and now it seemed that something was wrong.

However, Zhou Yu ordered him to never ask about their relationship in front of Gu Yong before returning, so Sun Ce could only suppress his eager curiosity.

However, it was okay on the road. Looking at Gu Yong and Gu Qi's obviously unusual emotions when they met, Sun Ce, who felt that he had guessed very right before, strengthened his mind. Mr. Jin Shu and Mr. Yuan Tan must be a family .

It must be that Mr. Jin Shu sneaked out of the house and was about to be caught by his family now, otherwise, Gong Jin wouldn't let himself talk more in front of Mr. Yuan Tan!

Back then, I was passionate and wanted to single-handedly enter the world, and Mr. Jin Shu was not much older than me. It was definitely possible to do such a thing a few years ago.

It's a pity that his father's death killed his dream in his infancy. Otherwise, he would have followed the example of Mr. Jin Shu and wandered in the world alone.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Jinshu, who looks so stable now, also had a past of running away from home!

Immersed in the two or three things about "Gu brothers getting along" that he imagined, Sun Ce didn't mind being thrown away at all, and even thought that he could continue to be ignored. He had a feeling that there would be a big drama in a while!

The gleam in Sun Ce's eyes almost told others that he was enjoying watching the play, and the extreme joy gave rise to sadness, so next, Sun Ce, who was secretly thinking about exchanging feelings with Gu Qi for a while, was suddenly shown in front of his eyes. Lu Bu was taken aback.

"General... General!"

After standing for a long time, looking at Sun Bofu who finally saw him, Lu Bu gritted his teeth, put his arm directly on Sun Ce's shoulder and led him out. The letter he sent back only said that people from the Gu family were coming, but Did not say it would be such a scene.

Thinking of the Gu Clan in Wu County who had been specially sent to investigate before, a dark light flashed in Lu Bu's eyes. Most of the patriarchs of the Gu Clan had the impression of searching for people in Wu County more than ten years ago, so he knew the news easily.

Jin Shu never talked about the family affairs, so he naturally wouldn't come to make fun of him, but if the people of the Gu family want to harm Jin Shu, even if they have great power in Jiangdong, they definitely don't want to take advantage of it here.

Putting aside the help that the Jiangdong clan gave them before, Lu Bu said that he must not give an inch when it comes to matters related to Jinshu!

I don't know what the entanglement is, and Lu Bu never thought of asking Gu Qi, anyway, he protects people, no matter whether it is good intentions or malicious, he will not let Jinshu suffer any harm.

Not minding guessing Gu Yong's intentions with the utmost malice, Lu Bu abducted Sun Ce outside and inquired about the news bit by bit. Before making any moves, he had better figure out what the enemy wanted to do.

Lu Bu from the outside was sending information from the side, and Guo Jia inside was not idle either. Before Gu Yong came in, he was talking happily with Gu Qi. After this person came in, Gu Qi's expression began to be in a trance. It was so obvious that he saw it naturally. come out.

After talking for a while, Guo Jia brought the topic to Gu Qi, and Gu Qi, who was listening boredly at the beginning, was dismissed by him early on.

"The famous Gu Jiayuan came all the way to Xiapi, probably not just for Jiangdong's government affairs!" With a chuckle, there was no one else in the room, and Guo Jia's aura as the head of the family naturally showed out.

As expected of Guo Fengxiao, Gu Yong sighed and didn't want to hide it, "To tell the truth, Yong came here this time because of Ah Jin...for Jin Shu."

"As far as Jia knows, Jinshu has nothing to do with the Gu family of Wujun!" Guo Jia took Gu Yong's words with a half-smile, and just now he talked about Gu Qi's background. The distance between Wujun and Yizhou is not only Thousands of miles are as simple as that.

Preconceivedly labeling Gu Yong as a robber, Guo Jia sneered, their brocade books are not what those clans want to throw away whenever they want.

Guo Jia is very aware of the intrigue among the great families, and because of this, the first thing he thought of might be that the Gu family, seeing that Gu Qi is too famous now, wants to enclose people under his family. It is not like this kind of thing has never happened before. .

Even if Gu Yong doesn't look like that kind of person, but people can't be judged by their appearance, so what if they have a good reputation, if their family's brocade book is really taken away, where will they cry.

"I can't explain it clearly for a while, Yong won't be unfavorable to Jin Shu, Feng Xiao can rest assured!" Waving his sleeves, Gu Yong let out a foul breath, no matter what, he will meet A Jin first before talking.

There were so many people just now, Gu Yong couldn't say anything to Gu Qi at all, it's better to talk about private matters in private, even if Ah Jin and Guo Fengxiao are good friends, these things still have to be known by Ah Jin himself.

Guo Jia twitched the corners of his mouth, and didn't make any troubles. He arranged a place for Gu Yong with a business-like attitude, but after thinking about it, he felt uneasy, so when he returned home, he asked someone to send a letter to Xi Zhicai who was far away in Yuzhou.

Looking at Gu Yong's appearance, he doesn't seem to have any bad intentions. Jin Shu must be really from the Gu family in Wujun, isn't it? Jin Shu himself never said it, Mr. Xi will always know a thing or two!

Gu Qi, who was sent away, did not go far. If he hadn't been so affectionate, Gu Yong's coming to the Pit might have something to do with him. In order not to cause more misunderstandings, he felt that he should make it clear to Gu Yong.

If in the Tang Dynasty or modern times, someone similar to himself suddenly appeared and said that he was his family member, he might still hesitate, but what kind of place is this, the period of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty!

So, after Guo Jia made the arrangements, Gu Qi greeted Gu Yong who came out. The child who lost more than ten years ago may have already encountered an accident.

Without waiting for Gu Qi to speak, Gu Yong spoke before him, "Gong Jin has already said that Jin Shu..."

"Let's go in and talk!"

Pointing to the mansion next to the general's mansion not far away, Gu Qi interrupted Gu Yong's words, and walked directly in front. After a pause, Gu Yong silently followed behind Gu Qi.

He had already expected that this trip would not go smoothly, so he was not too disappointed with Gu Qi's reaction.

It's okay to not go well, after all...it's been so many years!
