Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Page 118

So far, the Jingzhou gentry, led by Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, has become the second largest force under Liu Bei after the Yuan Cong faction.

From Quanling to Linwu, you can take the north-south road. The north road changes from Xiangshui River to Leishui River and Chenxian County to the land road.

The North Road is far away and has a lot of water, so the time spent on the road is relatively less. The South Road is near the water and is short, but it takes Jiuyi Mountain Road, so it takes a little longer.

"Let's go south this time. You go to the medical hall and call Xingba, and let him bring Gan Gui to meet his relatives."

Lantian didn't want to disturb Hao Pu, the county guard, so he chose to enter Guiyang secretly from the South Road.

"Wei." Gao Shun answered with a red face and clasped his fists. Gan Ning's wife's relatives are in Linwu, and his wife is from Xindengzhuang, so he has to take his son back to see.

After Gao Shun left, Lu Lingqi came into the room carrying soup and tea.

She put it by the table and asked softly: "Lingling has been inspected, where is my husband going?"

"I plan to go to Linwu Xindengzhuang to have a look, and let Xingba and Boping take their son to look for relatives by the way..." Lan Tian explained.

"You take the children with you, right? Shizai is going back to see his family, so he can take care of them along the way. Last time you took Ji'er to Jiangxia alone. .” Lu Lingqi reminded.

"Both Yuan'er and Ji'er are going? What about Adou?" Lan Tian was worried about his nephew.

Lu Lingqi frowned and asked, "Simply take them away?"

Lan Tian shook his head hastily: "This time we are going to the Jiuyi Mountain in the south, and the car and horses are bumpy. I'm worried that sister will feel sorry for Ah Dou..."

Lu Lingqi smiled and said, "Adou has been playing with Yuan'er and Ji'er for the past two years, and he has become less delicate than when he first came here. Anyway, you asked Gao Yuan to prepare an extra carriage, and I will go to Sister Aunt to discuss it."

"If sister doesn't want to, just leave Ji'er in Quanling to accompany Ah Dou." Lan Tian nodded and said.

At this time, everyone in the house had had dinner, and the sky quickly darkened.

While Lu Lingqi went to discuss with Gan Qian, Lan Tian poured hot water into the tub to soak his feet.

These days, he was tired of traveling around Lantian. He collapsed on the back of the chair while soaking his feet, and soon fell asleep.

Lan Tian dreamed that he became Lan Ji, climbing on a high branch to dig out a bird's nest, and a person under the tree rolled up his sleeves and pressed his hands against the trunk.

Suddenly Lantian felt the ground tremble, and the big tree under him was pulled up by the man like a green onion.

Lan Tian woke up in a cold sweat, only to find Lu Lingqi walking towards the couch with her in her arms.

"Husband, the water in the basin is cold, I will wait for you to rest on the couch..."

Chapter 238 is biased towards Tiger Mountain

Lan Tian jumped out of Lu Lingqi's hand with a blushing face, and he quickly changed the subject with an embarrassing expression.

"Xiao Jun, how did you discuss with Sister?"

Lu Lingqi acted indifferently, "Sister agrees to let Ah Dou go with you, uncle, so she has nothing to worry about..."

"It's good to take Ah Dou for a walk, often seeing famous mountains and great rivers can expand one's mind, and I will work hard to take care of their mother and daughter." Lan Tian was already sitting on the side of the couch while speaking.

"It's all what a concubine should do..." Lu Lingqi answered while helping him undress.

Lan Tian got on the couch and slipped into bed, Lu Lingqi went to the table and wanted to blow out the oil lamp, and suddenly asked meaningfully: "I heard from Mr. Yuanhua that wine can relieve fatigue. My husband is tired from running around for days. Do you want to drink a little to relieve fatigue?"

Lan Tian was taken aback, then smiled and replied: "Mr. Yuanhua taught me a set of Wu Qin Xi, as long as you practice hard, you can strengthen your body and eliminate fatigue..."

Lu Lingqi's mouth turned round in shock, "Is it so magical? Then my husband has to transfer it to me."

"Xiao Jun is very skilled in martial arts, and this technique of health preservation can also catch the eye?" Lan Tian smiled slightly.

"Anyway, you don't overwhelm yourself with too many skills, husband, you are not allowed to hide your secrets." Lu Lingqi put her hands on her hips and looked very serious.

At this time, she took off her coat and only her underwear was left, her slender waist was still like a girl's.

Because Lu Lingqi has been practicing martial arts for a long time, she is still in her 30s and has a graceful body, and she has not given birth to fat due to better living conditions.

"Okay then, I'll teach you later." Lan Tian nodded.

"Don't look back, let's teach now." While speaking, Lu Lingqi actually blew out the oil lamp.

Lan Tian felt a gust of wind in the dark, and Lu Lingqi leaped lightly and landed beside him. The bed did not shake due to the violent impact, which was enough to see Lu Lingqi's movement skills.

"Xiao Jun, don't make trouble..." Lan Tian felt that the atmosphere was not right.

"Let's just teach it like this, my comprehension is very high..." Lu Lingqi said softly.

Lan Tian was no longer a young man, so he naturally understood his wife's code words, and then he turned around in the dark and took the initiative.

Lu Lingqi: "Is this the five-animal show that my husband practiced?"

"This style is called 'Tiger Attack'." Lan Tian replied proudly.

"Is the tiger one of the five birds?" Lu Lingqi asked suspiciously.

"One of the five birds is called a tiger, the second is called a deer, the third is called a bear, the fourth is called ape, and the fifth is called a bird..." Lan Tianxin said that I didn't name them randomly.

Lu Lingqi muttered: "Hua Tuo is not a good guy..."

Hua Tuo's Wu Qin Xi was adapted on the basis of "Two Qin Xi" in "Zhuangzi". Food.

Lam Tin was sweating while practicing Wu Qin Xi last night and slept soundly until sunrise the next morning. His body was indeed healthy and stretched.

He dressed alone, walked to the back yard and found that Lu Lingqi was talking with Gan Qian with her back turned to him.

"I think Ziyu's spirit has been raised enough, and your complexion is very good today." Gan Qian joked with a smile.

When Lu Lingqi heard Gan Qian's words, she immediately turned around and said embarrassingly: "My husband should have called me when he woke up. Now I change my clothes and let my sister watch my jokes..."

Lan Tian raised his sleeves and robe, "I'm not an old man, so what's the point of wearing my own clothes? Besides, my elder sister and I both came from humble beginnings, so we're really not used to being served by others..."

Lu Lingqi was unhappy when she heard this, and complained: "I'm not someone else..."

Seeing this, Gan Qian comforted her with a smile: "Don't bother with him, Ziyu is really stupid..."

"His mouth is not stupid. I'll go and wake Yuan'er and Ji'er up..."

Lu Lingqi stood up, blushed and ran away after speaking, giving the impression of a little girl.

Women's happiness is usually on the face, no matter how you hide it, you can't hide it.

Gan Qian looked at Lu Lingqi's youngest daughter's behavior, and said to Lan Tian with a smile, "My brother and sister are really straightforward girls, why didn't Ziyu give birth to a few more children for you while she was young, did she have to take younger women as concubines?"

How many more?Lan Tianxin said that ancient times also gave birth?Don't you just have two?

"Ahem, sister, what are you talking about... It is fate for parents and children to meet, and what should come will always come. As for taking concubines, it is nonsense..." Lan Tian almost choked.

Gan Qian looked at Lantian suspiciously, "With Ziyu's current status, it's natural for him to have a few concubines? How can there be a man in this world who is not beautiful?"

"I really don't think so, sister, don't mention taking concubines from now on, so as not to upset Madam..." Lan Tian hurriedly stopped.

Gan Qian looked puzzled, "My younger brother is not like a fearful person, and younger brothers and sisters are more like a big woman, it's really strange..."

While the two siblings were talking, Lan Yuan and Lan Ji ran over one after the other. These two children were very energetic, and they couldn't stop as long as they were awake.

"Father……"

"aunt……"

Lan Yuan and Lan Ji greeted each other politely, and Lu Lingqi came out after her. She smiled and asked Lan Tian, ​​"What did your husband and sister talk about just now?"

Lan Tian smiled and said, "Just chatting casually."

"No, I just heard my father say concubine..."

Before Lan Ji finished speaking, Lan Yuan secretly pulled the hem of his clothes behind him, and the two of them tiptoed to A Dou's room.

Lu Lingqi's complexion sank at first and then returned to normal, she said with a smile: "The house is a bit deserted, whose girl is your husband interested in? I will go and help you with the matter."

"Nothing..." Lan Tian swallowed his saliva, looked at Lu Lingqi and then at Gan Qian, thinking that this is all right?

Seeing this, Gan Qian smiled and smoothed things over: "Just now I saw that your husband and wife are deeply in love, so don't be careless when you deliberately talk about each other..."

"Sister, what are you talking about? I really hope that Ziyun will take the two concubines back home, so that I can wash away the stigma of being a tiger woman..." Lu Lingqi said with a wry smile.

Lan Tian was taken aback when he heard that, he had indeed heard the term "tiger woman", but he didn't pay attention to these boring things at all.

"What's wrong with a tiger wife? I know that there are tigers in the mountains, so I prefer to go to the mountains..."

Gan Qian said in her heart that there is nothing wrong with you, but if she really came back as a concubine, how dare she be disrespectful in front of Lu Lingqi?Not to mention the abilities of the siblings themselves, even General Gao's trapped army was scared to death.

"Husband, be careful, let my sister watch the joke..." Lu Lingqi's cheeks were flushed, and she thought to herself why she blushed so easily these two days?

Gan Qian smiled and shook her head, "Ziyu is indeed a rare man in the world, Xuande's martial arts and swordsmanship are far superior to him, and I don't want to stay with Mrs. Sun any longer. You are so lucky, brother and sister..."

When Lu Lingqi heard this, it was true that there were not many women who knew martial arts, so it was extremely lucky to meet such an interesting and tolerant man as Lan Tian.

"My brother-in-law is different from me. After all, he is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, a prince..."

When Sun Shangxiang was mentioned just now, Gan Qian suddenly thought of something, and she quickly said, "According to the recent report from Jiangling, Mrs. Sun is expected to give birth at the end of the year, and it is less than two months from now. I will have to trouble Ziyu to send someone to congratulate me on my behalf." .”

"How impolite to send someone there? It's almost the same if I go." Lu Lingqi was filled with righteous indignation.

"I'm afraid that my younger siblings will scare her, Mrs. Sun is also a poor woman..." Gan Qian shook her head and sighed softly.

Lan Tian nodded, "The matter of Zhou Shan has nothing to do with Mrs. Sun. I will go to Jiangling to congratulate myself when the time comes, and meet Yide and Kong Ming by the way."

"Father is going to meet that black-faced general? Remember to bring me with you then." Lan Ji said excitedly.

Lu Lingqi frowned, "Didn't you go to see Adou? Why are you still here listening to us?"

Chapter 239

Seeing that the situation was not right, Lan Ji rubbed the soles of his feet with oil, and hid behind Lan Yuan not far away.

When Gan Qian called Adou to explain, Gao Yuan walked into the backyard to remind him that it was time to set off.

When everyone walked to the gate of the prefect's mansion, they saw Gao Shun and Gan Ning each driving a carriage waiting by the roadside, guarded by an army of officials (the number of officials is one hundred).

"Sister, go back, children, get in the car." Lan Tian greeted.

After Lan Tian finished speaking, the children got into Gao Shun's carriage, and Lu Lingqi waved to Gan Qian, and then followed Lan Yuan into the carriage.

Seeing Lan Tian's astonished face, Gan Qian knew that Lu Lingqi hadn't discussed it with him, so she explained with a smile: "My siblings are worried that you won't be able to manage so many children, so they went with them."

Lan Tian shook his head and smiled wryly: "I have a soldier to help me, how can I not control it? But it's good for her to go out to relax, I will stay on the plateau to protect the safety of the house."

"Ziyu go at ease, the siblings have already made arrangements in the morning." Gan Qian replied with a smile.

Lan Tian grabbed the reins and got on his mount, and head-to-head with Deng Ai set off to the north pier of the city. Where did his father go on a trip, Lu Lingqi suddenly appeared before his departure. I don't know if it was God's will.

The children thought they could let themselves go, but as soon as Lu Lingqi entered the carriage, they all behaved themselves.

Lu Lingqi looked around and felt that something was missing, so she pushed the curtain of the car and stuck her head out.

"Shi Zai, why did you get on the horse?" Lu Lingqi asked suspiciously, the original child king no longer took the carriage.

"Master...I have grown up..." Deng Ai explained.

"You are only 14 years old..." Lu Lingqi asked in surprise.

Deng Ai's height was already the same as Lu Lingqi's. Although she was thinner, she had already been on the battlefield, and her immature face had a maturity that was rarely seen among her peers.

Because Deng Ai is a disciple of Lantian, she is still a child in Lu Lingqi's heart.

Gao Shun turned around and smiled at this time. Lu Lingqi learned to ride a horse when she was 12 years old. She met Lan Tian outside Xiaopei when she was 14 years old.

Lan Tian nodded and said, "If Shi Zai wants to ride a horse, let him ride it, but the knife is sharpened too quickly, so you can't rush for success, and I won't let you become a teacher easily."

Deng Ai was not good at speaking, but his heart was quite calm. Lan Tian taught him to be more attentive than his two sons. Hearing this, he said with tears in his eyes: "Ai... Ai... would rather not...not be a teacher..."

"Don't worry, I will give you a chance to spread your wings." Lan Tian shook his head with a wry smile.

Although Lan Tian was talking to Deng Ai, he was actually talking to Gao Shun and Gan Ning. As long as he educated his children well, he would not worry about not having a chance to make his mark in this era.

Everyone came to the pier to dismount and change boats. Gao Ling and Gan Gui stepped out of the carriage driven by Gan Ning. As soon as Lan Tian saw the two children, he knew that they had inherited their father's character.

Gao Ling is dark and stocky, as taciturn as Gao Shun, Gan Gui is second only to Lan Yuan in age, this child has a flamboyant and cheerful personality, a typical childhood Gan Xingba.

The children behaved relatively quietly on the boat because they were not yet familiar with it.

A few hours later, the fleet landed in Yingpu County to transfer, and horses and vehicles were prepared at the pier.

Lan Tian saw that Gao Shun was frowning, so he asked puzzledly: "Boping seems to be unhappy?"

"Yingpu county captain was perfunctory. He originally prepared two carriages, but now there is only one on the pier. How can people sit?" Gao Shun said coldly.

"I think this carriage is very spacious, so it's no problem for these children to sit in it." Lan Tian shook his head and said.

"But my lord..." Gao Shun lowered his head in self-reproach, mainly because the time was too short and Yingpu County was indeed too late to prepare.

Lu Lingqi comforted: "It's been a long time since I rode a long distance, and today I just happened to accompany my husband to go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers."
